I strongly suspect that the answer is "none of them" and you're stuck with an old TV with no suitable connection. However if your laptop has a composite video socket - something like the yellow one you mentioned for the TV, then you could get a phono to phono lead and connect them together for video. Such sockets are unusual on newer laptops. You would also need a 3.5mm stereo jack to twin phono lead to connect from the laptop's headphone socket to the red/white audio sockets. If you did manage to get it going you might find the picture quality of DVD's barely acceptable and Facebook unuseable. The Phono to Phono connection can't give good quality.
You might want to face up to a new TV; Richer Sounds have a good selection. This one is their cheapest 32" at £199 and you can get a 5 year warrenty for £19.99.
In my experience a dedicated DVD player is more reliabile than hooking cables to a TV and although a TV has a bigger screen you'll be sitting further away, so no overall gain.

Two questions for a DG-600 Build
I am working on installing equipment in a 4/4.8m DG-600 from H model, available from Icare. It is a wonderful kit and beautifully made.
I worked on the retract landing gear last night and want to have the egar servo have its own power source. I tried having the signal wire go directly to the reciever and then use power from the battery for the + and - leads (red and brown). The servo is erratic and unrelkiable whith this wiring. I am missing something here, any suggestions?
Also, gear doors and a mechanism for pulling them up when the gear retracts....suggestions ???
Thanks for the help !
Servo jitters?
Don't know about the gear doors, but the servo power and signal lines must have a common ground referance (grounds connected together) so the signal input is "clean".
John Derstine had a lot of great building tips that were just found by someone on RC Groups. I made a copy of the url..
Check this out.. Has a wiring diagram as well
Hope it helps.
If you need more tech Tips go here
Good luck
Here's the diagram I provided to Bob. I picked it up a few years ago, I believe right here?
Follow-up question
Could you protect your rx battery from a stalled landing gear servo by putting an appropriately rated fast-acting fuse in the + line from the rx to landing gear servo? Would this not do away with an additional battery worry and achieve the same result?
I personally would not use a fast acting fuse as the potential for falsly blowing the fuse is great. There are two main failures for the retract servo. 1), if it is an analog servo, you'll likely strip the gears and 2). if it's a digital, you'll likely burn out the power amp inside the servo.
The problem with most retracts is the combination of the friction-based actuation mechanism and the chosen gear door solution.
Most "Hock/Fema" style retracts use a pin that slides in a slot within the actuating mechanism - something like a pin/slot based lever. This mechanism has a fair amount of friction that needs to be overcome at the full in and full out extremes as well as when the retract is being pulled in IF the counter-balancing spring is not well selected. It is better if this linkage is lubricated in order to reduce the friction. The downside of lubrication is the collection of dirt within the lubricant that further adds to the friction if not monitored and cleaned. The act of landing and taking off causes debris to be pulled into the fuse through the retract doors when the retract is down. This has a cumulative effect for increased debris over time.
Combine this with the standard method of gear door attachment, opening and closing (the retract pushes open the doors and rubber bands pull them closed) and you present large and sometimes variable forces that the servo needs to overcome to consistently operate the retract.
If this setup is not done with due diligence to reducing the friction forces involved as well as ensuring that absolutely nothing can catch on some other part of the setup, it is quite feasible to cause everything to lock up and jam.
The key is that the retract mechanism is different than almost ALL other servo driven items in a sailplane because of the friction involved. It therefore represents the greatest risk of stalling a servo. If it is a digital, you could be talking a couple amps being drawn from the pack during the stall. If left to it's own devices, the result can be catestrophic if you are using the receiver power source.
My earlier comment about a fuse stands in that it is quite feasible to see varying loads on the retract servo over time - up to the full stall current of the servo if the retract mechanism is not regularly maintained. Placing a fast acting fuse in the cct could cause premature failure of the retract.
On the other hand however, it might very well be a useful approach as an early warning indicator of when maintenance is required on the retract mechanism (i.e., the forces on the servo have increased). I personally choose the additional pack with common ground.
Hi there,
over here in Germany we have a lot of Scale/Semi-scale-aerotowing-action and most of the gliders have a retract (if the full-scale has one as well).
But I dont know anybody who uses a second battery-pack just for the retract (of course there may be some guys who do it, that I dont know of) in their gliders. Seems to me, that its an american issue ...
To tell not only from my limited personal experience I can say, that I observe closely the german messageboard RC-Network and participate on an almost daily basis there from day 1 in 2002 especially in the glider/scale-glider-section and I cant recall any substantial discussion on this topic.
Tonys observations are very accurate and true without doubt.
But I think, that if you have a good servo (metal gear, enough torque) with a good linkage and an appropriate door-opening-and-closing mechanism (there are various methods) and you keep an eye on the mechanism during the season and do a little maintenance here and there (removing debris, controlling smooth operation), you dont need a back-up-system just for the retract.
Ok, to add a little more to this, I can give you a specific example of what happened to my 10.3m 1:3 scale Eta. It had the retract door hinging system noted in another recent post in this forum - very friction free hinging.
I had a Hitec HS5945 High Torque digital hooked to a double shocked, well balanced Hock retract. I tuned the system, removed all points of hangup and all friction generators. On my first two outings to fly the Eta I had four battery packs in it but I did NOT have a fifth one specifically for the retract.
My second session of flying nearly ended in catastrophy. During a take-off on grass, the wheel picked up a small twig that got jammed in the retract and stopped it from closing fully. I was unaware of the issue because at that time, I had my retract tied to my tow release and therefore the retract only attempted to close once I was at 1000 ft and I released from the tow.
My ONLY indication that something was wrong was the voltage readouts I was receiving back from the Telario that was onboard. Over a period of about 8 seconds, the voltage readouts from the telario were 6.4V.......6.3V.....6.2V......6.1V.....6V..... Obviously a problem with the power in the system.
I deployed full flaps, full spoilers and came down very fast and bellied onto the grass and cracked one of the gear doors. The Digital servo had been stalled for a number of minutes and was smoking by the time I got it on the ground.
The moral of the story is that even with due diligence in design and maintenance, this ONE mechanism, if jammed, has the power to bring a model to the ground in a way you prefer it not!
As Len added - it's a relatively low cost insurance policy.
Of course, if we were all to take a leaf from the power guys, we'd be using air driven retracts. I can't imagine why we're not - it has its benefits.

Strange noises emanating from the refrigerator really upsets clients. In addition to the noise, the refrigerator feels warm to the touch. We get these calls often for refrigerator repair services. When we get to their home, more often than not the problem stems from the condenser fan, for some reason it has stopped pulling heat from the unit. More often than not, after removing the back of the fridge so we can check out the problem, we find it's not as bad as we thought. Most of the time we don't have to replace the condenser fan. It's not broken, merely suffering from years of neglect and dirty build up. This could have been avoided had they vacuumed the condenser once a year.

Cleaning the condenser fan is easy. We use a soft brush and remove the dust from the entire unit, and thoroughly vacuum the area. While doing this we explain how cleaning the fan a few times a year will extend the life of their refrigerator, and decrease the number of times they need us. Most of our clients didn't even realize they could remove the back panel and clean the dust and pet hair from the condenser fan.

After removing the dust and pet hair that's built up over the years, the unit fires back up and works smoothly and quietly again. When we leave the client's house, they're happy to have their appliance working properly, and have been freshly educated about how to keep things clean and trouble free.

Every once in a while, we stumble upon one that needs to be replaced. The exact way our technicians handle the situation depends on the fan. Most of the time we've found we need to remove the entire system and replace everything.

Removing the condenser fan and replacing it with a new one isn't difficult. When we have to replace the entire condenser fan unit, we like to take the motor out before removing the fan blades. It's the system that's worked best for us.

To get the condenser fan and its motor out of the refrigerator, we simply find where the two wires enter the terminal block and use a pair of pliers to remove them. After that unscrewing the bolts holding the motor in place is easy. Once the motor has been unscrewed we slip the washer and fan blade from the motor shaft. If it's in good shape, we'll use the same mounting bracket that was on the old condenser fan on the new system. Once we've attached the mounting bracket, slip the motor in place, making sure it's securely bolted before attaching the fan blades and then connect the wires to the terminal. After double checking to make sure everything's securely fastened into place, we use our hands to spin the blades, making sure they spin freely and that they're not going to catch on any wires. We refrigerator back in and test run it. Once the spin test has been successful, we close the back cover and turn the refrigerator on and listen to make sure everything's working properly.

Many people want their purchases to work for 30 years with no upkeep, maintenance, or careful use on their part. This can work for standard things like chairs, desks, and blankets. However, the more complex something is the more likely that it will need to be repaired to ensure proper operation and energy efficiency. Anyone who works as a mechanic can tell you that frequent maintenance is much better than repair. This is because it is less expensive and your original parts will be available. Appliances are a great example of an item that can do with basic maintenance. Keeping the parts clean and running smoothly will allow it to last far longer than you would expect.

As far as the general care and feeding of a normal appliance, basics are the name of the game. Do not get parts of the appliance wet that are not designed to be wet. Never let an appliance stay for two long upside down or in an odd position. Keeping heavy things on top of a refrigerator or a dryer can wear out its parts and make it less likely to last for years and waste more energy. The next step you need to keep your appliance repair at bay and ensure energy efficiency is general maintenance.

The easiest way to think of this is like auto care. You have to change your brakes, oil, and rotate the tires so that the rest of your car doesn't wear out. A repairman will be able to help you out and keep your items in good repair. Don't listen to a handyman who tells you that he needs to come in every three months to check on your appliances. Most people recommend every six months to a year. If you are a heavy user of your stove, dryer, or fridge it may be a good idea to do it every six months in order to avoid appliance repair.

These tips and tricks will save you money in the long run. It may seem like a crazy expense for someone who just spent so much on the appliance itself. However, when you are still able to run appliances for more than ten years you will be much happier that you put in the money to keep your appliances running. Appliance repair can be expensive and in many cases it can be more expensive than just getting a new appliance. You want to be sure to avoid situations like this because you will just keep spending.

Bruno Convictions May Spur Ethics Reform in Albany
By Karen DeWitt
Feature article on WNYC Radio
NEW YORK, NY December 09, 2009 —Albany may approve ethics reforms, now that former Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno has been convicted on federal corruption charges. Karen DeWitt reports from Albany.
REPORTER: Senator Dan Squadron, a Democrat who's sponsoring ethics reform legislation, says the conviction of the former senate leader for hiding tens of thousands of dollars in illegal gifts highlights a glaring loophole in state ethics laws that he calls the "Bruno gap."
SQUADRON: the fact that this happened in federal court, and not in an ethics commission and not in state court, is a sign that we need clearer and stronger state ethics laws.
REPORTER: Ethics reform bills stalled in the senate this fall. But Squadron says he's hopeful that the Bruno convictions will spur senators to take up the matter as soon as the session begins in January. In Albany, I'm Karen DeWitt.
HOST: Bruno has quit as chief executive of a private consulting firm. He plans to appeal his fraud conviction.

Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction After Oral Medication Failure
Many men may have difficulty obtaining or maintaining erections after various forms of cancer treatment. Erectile dysfunction can cause significant angst and anxiety for the man and his partner. This is a common concern after cancer treatment and you should not hesitate to discuss these concerns with your provider. While there are medications that can help men restore erectile function, these do not work for every patient. For those who do not respond to medication therapy, there are other options. Your healthcare provider can determine which treatment is appropriate for you, and the likelihood you will benefit from a specific treatment. These treatments may include the following:
The Vacuum Erection Device (VED) is an acrylic cylinder with a pump that may be attached directly to the end of the penis. The cylinder and pump are used to create a vacuum which draws blood into the penis so it can become erect. Once the penis is erect, a ring or band slides down onto the lower end of the penis to keep the blood from draining and maintain the erection through intercourse. The ring or band can be removed just prior to orgasm or at the completion of intercourse. Common side effects include penile pain, ejaculatory pain and penile bruising. Some patients do not like the erection produced by the VED as it can be subjectively cold as the penis fills with venous blood. It requires a one-time cost outlay though this may be covered by insurance.
The Medicated Urethral System for Erections (MUSE) uses a small plunger to insert a small suppository into the urethra (the normal pathway for urine). This suppository contains the medication alprostadil, is absorbed into the tissues of the penis and dilates blood vessels, which results in an erection. The intraurethral suppository comes in several doses. Patients are usually started on a low dose and titrated up to effect. The medication needs to be refrigerated to remain effective. Typically, if effective, the medication produces an erection in 5-15 minutes and can last for up to an hour. Patients do not need stimulation in order for this medication to work. There is a risk of priapism, or prolonged erection, and one would need to go to the emergency room if he had an erection that lasted for longer than 3-4 hours. Other common side effects include pain, dysuria and hematuria or urethral spotting.
With Penile Injections the patient uses a small, thin needle to self-administerd alprostadil or Trimix (alprostadil, phentolamine and papaverine) into the cavernosal space on the sides of the penis. This medication also needs to be kept refrigerated. As above, patients generally start at a low dose and titrate up to effect. Erections usually occur in 5-15 minutes and can last up to an hour or longer. There is a risk of priapsim as above. Other risks include penile pain, scar formation, penile curvature, hematoma and infection.
Penile prosthetics are generally reserved for patients who fail all of the other therapies as the operation is irreversible. After having a prosthesis, the man would always need a functioning prosthesis to achieve erections. There are both malleable (bendable) prosthetics and inflatable devices, though most patients prefer the inflatable device. Satisfaction rates are quite high, although the erections are not usually as long or as wide as the natural erections. There are multiple risks/complications with prosthetics including bleeding, prosthetic infection, chronic pain (especially in diabetics), corporal perforation/erosion, urethral injury, device malfunction/failure, need for revision, SST deformity, penile, urethral, bladder or bowel injury during surgery, and others. Learn more about penile prostheses.
All of these options can be discussed in more detail during a consultation with an urologist.

I am starting to collect ivy and angels and regal geraniums, here are a few pictures.
I also have some scented geraniums in here.
post your pictures too
This is an unnamed regal I got at walmart for 50 cents, I now have 3 huge geraniums like this from taking cuttings and rooting them LOL
Some pictures to start off with Post your pics
They are gorgeous!
*Spider takes his shoes off and lies down in the forum's couch*
Kathy Ann, how many stock plants of each veriety do you have? And how many cuttings on average you get from any? and how long before you pot them up? Thank you.
There are only two or three that I have 2 stock plants of, Depending on how well they sell and how rare they are. as I have no room for too many more and be able to increase my variety . I've had to order extension hangers to make room for more hanging pots because there is no more room for hubby to put up rods in the greenhouse. And I've used all the rods he had and he won't buy more LOL . Cuttings from each stock plant well, that depends on the plant itself. I can't really give an amount of cuttings that I can ta
ke off the plants, it's hard to say. I had a cinnamon which is hard to find and sells fantastic. So i'm trying to make 2 stock plants of that but I sell them faster than I can keep the cuttings to make another stock plant. my one stock plant of cinnamon is in a l0 in hanging basket I think, and I've cutit back to a nub almost it looks bad LOL I'll have to take a picture of it,
Those cuttings in the picture, I never pot up, their selling stock and stay in the 4 in pot. There are a few times i've taken cuttings off thecuttings and stuck them in the same pot and made a bigger plant for folks, cause they got too tall. Hope I've answered all your questions.
this is Lime scented geranium
one on the left is brand new french lace/variegated prince rupert, which are 2 in the pot and came very tiny, but they'll grow, the other is variegated nutmeg which I have now 3 stock plants of that one. their a little harder to root the V nutmeg too much rot. I loose about half of them.
Lots of new stock plants this year, all small, i'm babying them now, hope to be large soon. I 'm thinking of making an order from the geracae .com place, that's spelled wrong, too long for me to spell right, when I get back from vacation, if I can afford it. I might spend all my money while I"m gone.
But I do want to order a couple variegated angels and pansey faced ones from them before I quit for the year.
Now I do take cuttings off the new stock when they get alittle larger and stick the cuttings in the same pot as the new stock to make the stock plant larger for propigation down the road. I do that all the time.
I will cut on strawberry soon to fill the pot more.
I'll have to wait on french lace for a while though LOL it's so cute though.
Kathy Ann, do you sell your plants? Do you do mail order? I am thinking of selling some SGs at the local farmers market. Could youplease give me some tips? I can Dmail you. I would be very grateful>:o))
I'll dmail you
Kathy they are all so beautiful!!! I love the chocolate one. The blooms are so beautiful!
I'm so glad we got this forum. I will learn so much. ;)
Thanks Dancey
*knock* *knock* Can I join in? I brought brownies!
They are beautiful, I like the leaves on both of them, georgious
Oh no. I had said that I was not going to allow myself to get another "hobby". I have the C&S hobby and the AV hobby and I had said that this was it except for my outside plants. Now I want some of these. Do these grow year round if you keep them inside in the winter?
If you have a nice sunny window, and I mean a nicely lit up window, They love the sunlight when their inside.
Mine don't do well inside the house , not enough light, but they do well in the greenhouse
Thanks Kathy. One end of my porch is only sunny in the morning. Do you think that would work? Or the other end gets it in the morning but moves around and would shine on it in the afternoon too. Which do you reccomend?
I'd go with the other end ifyou can, but they should be ok with the first end, My greenhouse gets indirect light, and from the chocolate scented geranium picture above, youcan tell it doesn't get light enough in the GH to turn the leaves brown on the CM geranium . There are suppose to be brown splotches on the leaves. I think, not certain, that it's because it's not light enough in there.
GH is out in the middle of the yard so to speak, no shade what so ever, but the inside of the greenhouse is lined with cheap plastic , the kind you get at Ridout or lowes. and it doens't let the sun in as much as just the outside plastic would. Plants were scorching with the outside plastic, I'm glad for the inside plastic, it brought the temps down in the summer andhelped raise the temps in the winter.
Hmmm... i ate all of them... couldn't resist...t hey were delicious...burp
Kahty Ann, what is the size of your greenhouse?
Thanks. I will pot them up and put them on the end with the most light. If I notice they look scortched, then I'll move them.
16 x 30. and not near big enough, I also grow brugmansias over l00 of them, and mint varieties that Ilike to winter inthe greenhouse so I can sell through the winter. so it gets full, and when I put things on the floor of the GH they don't get enough light and usually die off or rot. I still put things on the floor.
I don't have time now, but I'll gather some pictures of the GH tomorrow and post them, nothing in it much but geraniums now and some brug babies so I guess it would be ok to post them here since their pictures of geraniums LOL

Figured I quick hop on the forum for suggestions rather than read through the same thing over and over again on google.
I'm selling one of my boards to a buddy today, it's been sitting collecting dust for a year so I figured I'd rather have some tattoo money than a board I'm not too fond of. I spray painted the board when I first got it, just doing some random patterns and it came out pretty well but he wants it back to looking like a stock board, got no qualms with him there on it.
I was hoping for some advice in the removal of the existing paint though. I've painted a few boards but never had to remove it before so I want to be cautious and not damage the board in the process. I was thinking of starting off with some naptha to remove all the old wax, following up with wiping it down with acetone to remove the spray paint. Only concern is I clear coated the sh!t out of it when I applied the paint, probably has 2 or 3 coats… Hoping I didn't shoot myself in the foot with all the clear. But after wiping it down with the above chemicals I was going to wet sand with a high grit paper.
Any tips, advice, insight, etc from the guys who deal with working with surfboards on a daily basis would be highly appreciated. Thanks guys!

Removing spray paint designs from a board
Apr 23, 2014, 04:14 PM #2
if the acetone/naptha doesnt work with a rag, 220 grit with the acetone will crush through it
Apr 23, 2014, 04:20 PM #3
... yep... 220 grit on a soft pad at about 2500 rpm.
I would use a little acetone - but be careful as it will easly eat thru the resin. I think using a solvent like paint thinner - that's not as strong might work better - but once you are thru the clearcoat and paint- switch to a buffer and buff it out with rubbing compound - like 1600 grit rubbing compound. 3m makes some found at advanced auto near the resin- fiberglass section.
60 grit and a belt sander. if that dosent work try an angle grinder.

I've not tried this on a board but EZ Off Oven cleaner works for removing acrylic paint from boat hulls. Might be worth a shot.

and their fees are based on the amount of assets under management. I would make sure I held a significant percentage of my portfolio in those companies.
More long term than that, we have a major issue: In 2018, the so-called Social Security fund goes negative, with more money going out than coming in. We're going to have to borrow money to make up that shortfall. That means taxes are going to be raised and benefits are going to be cut for at least some part of the population.
Brian Jeffries: To me, Bush's plan is akin to what we are seeing with a lot of public funds: the full transfer to defined contribution plans from defined benefit plans. There's a lot of emphasis going into education, and that's going to be an important aspect of his plan—to educate the participants about their options and some of the basic strategies of asset allocation and how to stick to a strategy.
How will it affect the market? There is going to be a great supply of money flying into the market, so you will probably see an initial pop. But everything comes back to the norm, so I would caution against investing for just the short term to get those market pops. You want to look for strong, solid companies, not market timing.
Ted Parrish: Consumers and investors should treat [these accounts] as a supplement to their current allocations. They should still max out their 401(k), or at least up their contributions to the level their company is matching, and contribute to their Roth IRA each year. Invest in high-quality, diversified companies and bonds.
Michael Ray: I probably look at this differently than most people. I don't believe that Social Security is all that big of a problem. Even when we start to experience a funding gap in 2017 or 2018, it's only because the number of workers—the Generation X and Y workers—won't be able to cover the number of retirees in the baby boom generation. But, there are multiple solutions that could possibly fix the problem. As far as the shortfall goes, we would still be able to cover approximately 75% of the current level of payouts with no change to the system. So, when people say the system is going bankrupt, that's actually not true. It's just that you won't be able to receive the same level payments that you receive currently.
BE: A lot of people think that Social Security is going to be there for them in retirement. How should people factor it into their overall plans for retirement and investing?
Ray: I don't think anybody looks to Social Security for 100% of their retirement income. With the proliferation of 401(k)s, 403(b)s, Roth IRAs, and other ways to save for retirement, if people take the view that Social Security is only part of what they are going to need and they save on the other part, they shouldn't really have any problems. Given that the savings rate in America is fairly low, and

You've probably heard of the highly advertised prophesy that May 21, 2011 (tomorrow) will be the day of the Rapture, the day Jesus calls his believers home in a blink of an eye and those who have denied him will remain on Earth.
It's not the first time a person has predicted a specific date of this event. Obviously, no one has been right. Matthew 24:36 says no man knows that day...so I expect this current false prophet will be wrong, too.
But oh...I wish he was right. In fact, the only reason I wish he was wrong would be that he was late by a day, and we wouldn't see tomorrow's sunrise.
You see, I want to see my savior face to face more than anything else. I do not cling to anything in this world, and would leave THIS SECOND if given the chance. And let me be clear- I want to go whether it means I am one of millions in the blink of an eye, or if I die in a lone situation and my loved ones are alive and well behind me.
My view is not popular. I spoke my desire out loud in a group of friends one day, and was labeled "depressed". With few exceptions, anyone I have told this to has told me a list of things they want to do before they die.
"But what about your kids?" people ask me. I tell my children often that I long for heaven more than anything else. They know that is where I want to be. Will they be sad? I'm sure of it. But they also have this...a wonderful father, 4 amazing grandparents, 10 aunts and uncles, cousins and second cousins galore, who love them. And they know Christ personally, so I know the Holy Spirit would provide them comfort.
"What about your husband?" See above. Plus, he's a crafty, lovable guy. He wouldn't be alone for long!
To most, it may make no sense, this longing I have. But to me, I don't understand how a Christ follower could think otherwise. What does this temporal earth have to offer that comes anywhere close to eternity in paradise, in the presence of the creator of the universe???
I do wonder, however, why this desire is so strong in my heart. If I am missing something here on earth while I keep my eyes focused above. I do not believe in coincidence, and know without a doubt my work here is not through. If God had wanted me home, he has had lots and lots of opportunities to snatch me away (illness, skiing adventures, car wrecks, tornados)! So- there has to be a reason I am still here. What is it? I probably won't know this side of heaven,,,,but there is yet another reason I want to go NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's my mind, in case you wanted a peek inside. We'll talk more next week...or not. After all, I highly doubt blogs are a tool used in heaven! I'm off to live life while I have breath to live it!

Ok, I am at my wits end here. I have several deer capes from golden state tannery that smell very bad and the hide paste does'nt seem to want to hold. I have washed, scubbed and tried everything I can think of and they still smell like ass and the glue will not hold. They smell like a mix of musty dirty laundry and a diry out house. They do not feel oily and when you wash them the water is very dirty. I took two small scraps of hide and super glued them together and let it dry, you can peel them apart. Any ideas?

maybe the problem is with the charger itself not the phone ?
I bought a Spectrum because I like the hardware; it's a huge improvement over my old CM7 AMOLED DROID Incredible. Sure, the developers aren't here. But it's still a great phone. And I can change launchers, which eliminates its biggest weakness.
I buy phones based on what they ARE, not on what they "should" become. If the Spectrum never gets CM9, I'll still be satisfied with the phone I DO have, not disappointed in the phone it should have become.

Ultimate Lifestyle Hideaway Lifestyle - Property ID: 879895
Located west of Gympie in the Widgee district approximately 40 minutes from Gympie and 10 minutes from Widgee.

There is 10,000 gallons of rainwater storage and there is a bore equipped with an electric submersible pump supplying gardens and orchards etc. A seasonal gully runs through the property.
There is a steel framed shed (9m x 6m with 6m x 3m awning) on a concrete floor, has power connected and a 450 gallon rainwater tank.

What's new, now
Today in Gear: August 8, 2014
The newest sensation in personal aviation is sport flying. ICON has just unveiled their first production aircraft, the A5: nimble, quick and handsome, it's designed to inspire a passion for flying akin to the passion for driving that surrounds Porsche and Ferrari. We suggest you save up, get your pilot's license and practice your Top Gun-style high five. iconaircraft.com
|Vandeyk VDX
Though cyclocross is no new sport, its massive increase in popularity is enough that specialized cyclocross bikes have become exceedingly common. German bike design house Vandeyk has teamed up with the cyclocross experts at Crema Cycles to create their new VDX. The VDX is hand built from high-end True Temper OX Platinum Steel, with a choice of either cantilever or disc breaks. Couple this with its beautiful graphic paint job and you might regret ever getting it muddy. $3,850
|Audioengine B1 Bluetooth Receiver
After spending potentially thousands on a high fidelity sound system, there's no point in cheaping out when connecting your audio streaming device. Audioengine's B1 Bluetooth music receiver allows you to wirelessly connect your phone, computer or MP3 player to your sound system without sacrificing audio quality; its aptX codec designed specifically for high-quality audio. And like all of Audioengine's other products, it boasts a seriously style-forward design. $189
|Jack Purcell Cross Stitch Leather
Converse's iconic Jack Purcell badminton shoe has been updated with a new cross-stitched, soft-tumbled leather construction that features blue stitching, waxed cotton laces and brass eyelets. Though these sneakers aren't very likely to see the badminton court, they have always been classic summertime wear. $95
|Filson Heavy Tin Duffle Bags
Few bags can combine durability and style at a reasonable price point, but Filson's new line of "Heavy Tin" duffles is up to the task. Made from Bridle Leather that's been double-waxed for maximum weather resistance, these duffles are likely to hold up to whatever nature (or a careless TSA employee) can throw at it, and look damn good while doing so. $190+
|Stone Brewing Coffee Milk Stout
Lovers of dark beer, rejoice: Stone Brewing has recently released its new Coffee Milk Stout, blending the bitterness of coffee stouts and the sweetness of milk stouts. The new brew should pair well with, well, just about anything — though steak might be a good starting place. stonebrewing.com

Hotel surveillance video has helped San Antonio police arrest a suspect in the slaying of a California man whose body was found when he missed a funeral.
Police on Monday night announced the arrest of 35-year-old Ivan Aguilar on a murder charge. Online jail records didn't immediately provide information on bond or an attorney for Aguilar, who's charged with killing 42-year-old Vincent Diaz of Millbrae, Calif.
Friends contacted the hotel Dec. 23 when Diaz, who was in San Antonio for a funeral, never showed up. His body was discovered in his room.
Sgt. Javier Salazar says it appears a struggle took place in the room. The victim was strangled and personal items were taken.
Security video footage from the lobby shows a man police believe is Aguilar.

Marketing manager for fashion company interested in bringing on affiliates. How?

Title couldn't be long enough. So essentially I work marketing for a small fashion company that makes winter boots, the companies new website is almost done and I haven't done much with affiliates, I want to know what I need to do to make it easy for affiliates.
From my understanding i need a way to track affiliates (i have been recommended to leaddyno, is this a good one, is there a better way?)
The second thing I have heard some conflict about, some people say you shouldn't use affiliates unless you give them banner ads, other say to not waste the time and to let the affiliates make their own banner ads tailored to their audience.
And finally the best place to find affiliates in the fashion industry, is there another forum focussed for that, or a jv manager that might be able to help?
The new website should be up next week and I am just curious at what my next few steps I should take. If you have any advice I'd love to hear it. I am amazing at marketing, but affiliates is a pretty new world for me.

You should not try to pitch a new site to affiliates until you have a solid conversion. Are you running paid search to get visitors to the new site so you can establish your conversion?

The site is not exactly new it's just switchiing to a "Fall sale" these boots have been selling for 5 years now, and are in some retail stores. It's an established company. I just know we are looking at new ways to market and affiliates was brought up so i was doing some research on the best ways to do it.
As for conversions I really don't know, it's more of a catalog and we have email signups, we have a newsletter, an article section. Imagine a mini Prada opening up to affiliates. Is it feasible?

It is feasible, but unless you have a very well-known brand name, you may not get a second look as an affiliate site. Do you have statistics on conversion rates for your site which can be shared with affiliates?
There is a litany of things one must do to prepare for an affiliate program - there actually are people/companies you can hire who can help evaluate your potential then help you through the process. It is usually worth it, as having a well designed program established from the start will help you achieve maximum results.

Moviephiles have been wondering for weeks whether Elizabeth Olsen had been tapped to play anda Maximof, also known as the Scarlet Witch, in Joss Whedon's upcoming "Avengers" sequel, "Age of Ultron."
Sources told Bleeding Cool back in August that producers were seriously considering the 24-year-old actress for the part. But it was her co-star, Nick Fury himself, who let the cat out of the bag during an interview with the Wall Street Journal Wednesday.
"I know we're shooting in London, that James Spader is Ultron and going to be the bad guy, and that we added Ms. [Elizabeth] Olsen [who will play the Scarlet Witch]," Samuel L. Jackson told the paper. "But I don't know what she's doing, if she's on the inside or the outside. I haven't seen a script."
Deadline confirmed Jackson's comments, saying that Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's younger sister has nearly closed the deal.
"[It's] just a matter of formality before it's done," a source said.
Age of Ultron" will hit theaters in May 2015.

Things I Learned While Attempting a Poorly Planned Move
I work in moving and storage. I talk to people who are moving on a daily basis. You would think that I would have a pretty firm grasp on how moving works but it is easy to not appreciate the details that go into moving if you are not the one who has to fill in those details. Our business is pretty straightforward. We deliver portable storage units to people's homes. We move them when they tell us to. Nothing more, nothing less. So it's easy to lose an appreciation for what all goes into a move.
However, this past week I was reintroduced to the process when I had to coordinate my move within Columbia, SC in less than a week. Here is some of what I learned.
1. Don't expect cooked meals.
The energy used in packing items into boxes, throwing away things you don't need, and moving things around won't leave you much energy to stand over a stove and cook a meal. You are best served to stock up on quick meals to make your life that much easier. If you already live off of said quick meals then you were in Moving Training and didn't even know it.
Make sure you have the entire moved planned out step by step. Plan how you want to pack up each room and when you want to have that room emptied by. Plan how you want to move the items from one house to another. When you plan to get the truck/portable storage unit. (Preferably a mobile attic portable storage unit). Plan when you will need people to come over to help or when you want to have movers come over to assist you. Plan your cleaning as well. Everything that needs to happen should be written out. You have to be able to visualize it because you won't respect how much work it really is unless you do.
3. Shop around.
Make sure you find the best option for you in every way. Whether it is the convenience factor, price, the trust you have for the company. Make sure that the help that you get for you move is a good fit for what you will need. Don't let yourself get caught paying hidden fees. If you are going to rent a truck make sure you calculate the up-front cost. How many miles you will be driving (at .59 or .69 cent per mile). Then remember that you are responsible for every drop of gas you use as well. Don't get caught saving $20 by using a truck thinking you are saving more when the difference in price isn't worth the difference in the amount of work that you end up doing.
4. Whatever plan you made. Go back and DOUBLE the time you said it will take.
Alright maybe not double, but however long you THINK it will take. Add some time to it because again, until you are in the middle of it you will lose all respect for how much work goes into the move. It's better to give yourself too much time rather than not enough.
5. Plan breaks into that time.
Don't fall victim to "Mover's Fatigue" (that's a medical term I just made up). Make sure you leave breaks of time throughout your moving schedule for you to take a second to relax, regroup, or just to clear your mind.
6. Take off work (if at all possible)
Again. Moving is hard work. It's even harder work if you have already used most of the day's energy at your job. Even if you can only get one day off it will make a difference. Save that day for your heavy lifting perhaps or for the day of the actual move itself.
If I had done these things then the past week would have gone a lot smoother for me. I hope that you'll consider them when coordinating your move.

Starring: Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Mark Ruffalo, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Melanie Laurent
Directed by: Louis Letterier
Release Date: May 31, 2013
The Four Horsemen, a magic super-group led by the charismatic Atlas, perform a pair of high-tech magic shows, first astonishing audiences by robbing a bank on another continent, and then exposing a white-collar criminal and funneling his millions into the audience members' bank accounts. FBI Special Agent Dylan is determined to make the magicians pay for their crimes—and to stop them before they pull off what promises to be an even more audacious heist. But he's forced to partner with Alma, an Interpol detective about whom he is instantly suspicious. Out of desperation he turns to Thaddeus, a famed magic debunker, who claims the bank heist was accomplished using disguises and video trickery. One thing Dylan and Alma agree on is that the Horsemen must have an outside point person, and that finding him (or her) is key to ending the magicians' crime spree. Could it be Thaddeus? Or Alma? Or could it really be…magic? As pressure mounts and the world awaits the Horsemen's spectacular final trick, Dylan and Alma race to find an answer. But it soon becomes painfully clear that staying one step ahead of these masters of illusion is beyond the skills of any one man—or woman.
