The Squeeze is On! Silver Continues Its Climb (SLV, UDN, JPM, HSBC)
It would appear as though the silver market is in the midst of a short squeeze. The NYMEX futures price of the commodity rose over 4.5% in Thursday's trading action, closing near the highs of the day. The price of silver has now risen for seven consecutive days, and 15 out of the past 17 trading sessions.
Thursday's surge is just one of many over the past few months, as silver has vaulted from $28.06 per ounce on February 1st to the current price of $46.60 per ounce. That is a staggering gain of 66% in twelve weeks. In that timeframe, silver futures have only had 14 losing sessions out of 57. Underlying silver ETF iShares Silver Trust (NYSE: SLV) has seen shares rise 63.7% from $27.71 to the current price of $45.53 as a result.
The year-over-year price comparisons are even more astounding. As of this date in 2009 and 2010, the price of silver was $12.02 per ounce and $18.07 per ounce respectively. These figures amount to a 157.8% increase in one year, and a 287.7% increase over two years.
These astonishing statistics clearly indicate that something is going on. Some people are citing the weak dollar and inflation concerns as the reason for the climb, while others are pointing to something a bit more sinister – someone is trying to corner the market.
Investor concerns have been steadily building recently, as a number of global issues continue to plague the market. Such apprehensions stem from the sustained, loose monetary policies of the United States, the ongoing financial woes in Europe, and from escalating Middle East conflicts. Seemingly, the response has been a move away from paper currencies into the precious metals arena.
It is important to note that since silver's rapid ascension beginning in February, the dollar has taken a significant hit. In fact, if you compare the six-month daily futures chart of silver to the six month daily chart of the euro/dollar, you will notice that they look almost identical. (If you favor ETF's, compare charts of SLV and the PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bearish (NYSE: UDN), which goes up when the dollar gets weaker).
If you prefer conspiracy theories, there are whispers that an entity is trying to corner the market similar to the way the Hunt Brothers did back in 1980, or how Warren Buffet did in 1998. These theorists point to the fact that although the dollar has declined recently and has caused an increase in the price of most commodities, the gains in silver have significantly outpaced its counterparts. For example, over the past 12 months, the price of silver has risen 157.8% while gold prices have only risen 31%.
The idea of someone trying to corner the market is not as farfetched as it may seem. After all, the silver market is much smaller in size than most other commodity markets, and, thus, is more volatile and has a higher potential to be manipulated. As noted, it has happened before. More in-depth details about possible culprits can be found here.
Aside from these two lines of thinking, there is one relatively simple explanation – a good old fashioned short squeeze. There has been documentation (as well as speculation) that JP Morgan (NYSE: JPM) and HSBC (NYSE: HBC) have held significant short silver positions since 2008. Since that revelation, the banks have claimed to have wound down those trades, at least in the United States. A report from Zero Hedge last year alleged that instead of actually exiting those shorts, the banks simply transferred them to related non-US banks outside the control of The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CTFC) in order to escape position limit regulations. More information on this topic can be found here and here.
Whether or not it is, in fact, JP Morgan or HSBC, someone is holding massive short positions in the silver market, and has been getting punished for quite some time. A blow off top is a significant possibility if an entity is forced to liquidate its holdings or if investors begin to demand actual delivery. (Most investors do not accept delivery because they do not have the monetary ability to do so. This is why it is possible for more short contracts to exist than the actual silver the contracts represent).
Whatever idea or theory you choose to believe, one thing cannot be debated (and in reality, the only thing that matters) – silver is on a massive run and is showing no signs of abating. Despite the commodity's remarkable gains over the past two years, it is small compared to the gains experienced in the last silver rush from 1970 to 1980. During that period, silver went from $1.50 per ounce to just under $50 (a 3,233% gain) due to the actions of the infamous Hunt Brothers. After adjusting for inflation, that price would equate to $130 per ounce in today's market. While a short squeeze of that magnitude is highly unlikely, as the markets have shown time and time again, anything is indeed possible.

just two models of the celeron? is the tactic of the crippled chip dying? i hope so. the 386sx was such a bad idea. – by urgeek
|all about the pentiums? (1:05pm est mon apr 15 2002)
the pentium 233 mmx could not outperform the pii 233 mhz. the pii 500 mhz could not outperform the piii 500 mhz. why does the piii-s 1.4 ghz beat the p4 1.4ghz, even without the help of super fast ram. just wondering.
xeon 2.0 ghz 512 kb and 256 kb. why two cashes. what sort of chips are used for l1 and l2 cashes? is it like flash memory or ram module's. kb just awful small. i mean video cards have 256 megs on them(do gpu's have cashe's)?. if cashe is so perfomace related, the why the hell are chips still in the kb range? wouldn't a chip with 16 or 32 megs be a screamer. am i just stupid. – by front side cannabuss
|re: … (1:24pm est mon apr 15 2002)
there are several reasons why the piii outperforms the p4 at the same clock speed… but the biggest factor is probably the longer pipeline on the p4. with a longer pipe you can increase clock rates.. but less is done per clock. so, with similarly clocked chips the one with the longer pipe will perform worse. longer pipelines also increas the chance of missprediction – which leads to the need to flush they pipe… and that cost precious clock cycles.
as far as cache is concerned.. the basic reason they arent large is that its simply too expensive for the amount of gain. as the cache size increases latency is also increased.. unless they build a wider data path to the cache.
hmmm i am tired .. hopefully that made sense. – by danny e.

isn't that the celeron 1.2a by another name? i have a $70 celeron 1.0g a (256 kb) running sweetly at 1.33g. what a mess the intel product lineup has become! – by nom$kissass
|unfair comparations (2:53pm est mon apr 15 2002)
at same clock p4 is slower than p3 but with same manufacturing technology p4 get about twice the clockspeed that p3 does. p2 hardly clocks any better than p1-mmx, and also p2 has much better and more expensive cache than p1, so actually p4 is much better improvement over its predessor than any previous intel processor.

while you can say that, the one thing your missing is that the p4 has double the pipeline. look at it this way: it took more than 700mhz for the p4 to outpreform a athlon xp by less than 1%. it took several more hundred mhz for it to outpreform a p3, so how does that make it better? – by warplex

is there a socket converter so i can run tualatin cpu on my coppermine-only supported cusl2 mainboard. if i want to upgrade to a p4, i have to shell out for a new mainboard, cpu, memory, and powersupply, so just getting a 1266 mhz p3-t would be cheaper at this point. – by anon

He is more concerned with who should get the Countess of Salisbury than with checking whether the English might be coming to deliver her, and runs away as soon as he hears that they're on their way. Trying to attack England in Edward's absence, he ends up being captured by the English.

Umm....I'm more concerned with your ginormous shove of 74 bbs lol. Are you making it a bluff or do you think he's calling much worse than AQ?Edited By: survivor2331 Dec 17th, 2010 at 02:46 AM
Reason: didnt open shove.
good slowroll spot, uses the timebank. yep nh risk, wp, etc.
i give this slowroll a 6.5/10, its too simple of a spot to earn a higher score
1. He was probly ROFL at your ridonkulous shove
2. Get a life
I apologize for my mistake. Still a bad shove though in all seriousness.
don't treat AQ like its tits when youre deep enough and have position to see a flop? Im not a fan of slowrolling, but I've come to realize that happens and just learned to deal with it. besides, guys who fast roll me with K9o when I'm shoving atc tilt me even more lol
OP is a tool, only little biatches come in a forum and post this garbage trying to get in a fight. * Misery loves company*
+1 to delete Thread
lol OP had to post this just so he could get in arguments with people... Tool on buddy
p.s. terrible shove (literally awful)
Risk plays a lot of tables and seems like a pretty decent guy. There's a good chance he's running table ninja which automatically requests time if you do not act fast enough. So, it might not be a slowroll.
Having said that... I hope it was a slowroll. nh Risk.
top notch shove
Looks pretty standard? Used the good ole timebank trick to get you to spew all of your chips and you fell for it. GG
op your going about this in the perfect way imo....i mean making a stupid thread that noone cares about, proceed to call out peoples stats, while being a complete douche the entire time
oh and this slowroll was ok, i agree with the 6.5, but we do have to balance our slowrolling range as gank suggests

The man is known all through out Australia and its territories for his sensational slowrolling abilities.
Good shove tho, i like where your heads at
If anything I now have OP on my slow roll watch list have to get inside his head if it is that easy
Wait, people actually think it's a big deal to slowroll?
after just reading the hh i thought it was a pretty lame slowroll... after reading more of the thread im starting to like it a lot more.
btw, the best way to respond to a slowroll is to say gh and put a note on him that if you ever get the chance you should slowroll him back. A forum freakout is not the proper outlet for your frustration
Keep playing like this imo.Edited By: wackyJaxon Dec 17th, 2010 at 09:08 AM
Decent spot to slowroll imo. (OP, don't you think this was the perfect spot to slowroll here? I mean guy's sitting with AA... some donkey re-ships with a rather HEE-ODGE ovrbet shove..... umm.. I look at monitor & think...'tyvm donkey... weeeeeeee"
[x] gonna slowroll STANGAA whenever I get the chance
[ ] neCcesary thread about a random slowrolling you
I hate slowrolls with a passion.
I forget about them about ten seconds after they happen.
I would never waste time calling out any player on a public forum with the sole purpose of discussing a slowroll.
Since you are posting on a public forum I presume you are looking for advice.
Don't do what you did.

NASA's robotic space craft, Curiosity, has made a successful landing on Mars.
The six-wheeled vehicle was lowered to the Martian surface on three nylon tethers suspended from a hovering "sky crane" kept airborne with retro rockets shortly after 6.30am.
The €2bn science laboratory is fully automated and is being monitored at mission control in Pasadena, California.
After a nine-month journey from Earth, the rover is due to investigate the possibility that Mars may once have hosted life.
NASA said it received a signal from Curiosity this morning after a plunge through the Martian atmosphere described as "seven minutes of terror".
There were scenes of wild jubilation at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California when the message came through to mission control: "Touchdown confirmed."
Curiosity can now start its 98-week mission exploring a Martian crater that billions of years ago may have been filled with water.
The nuclear powered rover is bristling with sophisticated technology designed to discover if Mars may have supported life.
Roughly the size of a Mini Cooper, Curiosity is twice as long and five times as heavy as the twin rovers Spirit and Opportunity, which landed on Mars in 2004.

There is a real issue in breaking existing programs. The perl5 porters weigh heavily in backward compatibility. You don't want all your existing scripts to die because one of the new features makes your existing code die. E.g. let me assume you have a functuntion called say, not entirely unlikely. By declaring to use the new features the current perl offers you, you now have to think everytime you see that funtion if that is the sub from you or the one that is enabled by your request to get all new and shiny whatever.
For short scripts, one-liners and scripts that only use core-stuff and very basic things, it might not matter, but then you'd already be happy with just stating the obvious use strict;. It is a choice the porters made: enabling new shiny features in a rather easy way contra breaking existing code by just enabling new syntax.
An additional opportunity is now handed to you to test your code without breaking it. Testing is good. I've been in QA quite a while now, and I must say that perl is one of the few languages where testing is one of the first subjects mentioned when they say where a language is good in. Funny I never hear that for python, and I hear people praise junit, but not using it as much as they should for java.
Personally I resent some "features" being enable by default in even low-level languages like C. GNU started enabling // comments long before C99 made this a standard. Any idea how many programs now cannot be compiled on machines that have VERY EXPENSIVE ANSI-C compilers that comply to C89? That causes hate and grief. I'm glad not to see that in perl, and if shit like that happens, I get an opportunity to turn it off (most of the time) and I get warned well in advance that a change will happen.
Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Have you ever wondered about the work that goes into bringing a TV talk show on the road?
CBS 2's Alice Gainer got a behind-the-scenes look at "The Talk," the Los Angeles-based show that is spending the week in New York.
"It takes about a hundred people," said Angelica McDaniel, senior vice president of CBS Daytime. "It takes a lot of energy and a lot of excitement."
What viewers don't see on TV: There's a man who warms up the audience. Notes and cue cards have to be written. And there's a meeting before the show.
CBS 2 caught up with the show's hosts backstage.
New Yorkers "know we're only here for this short period of time," said host Aisha Tyler. "They're excited to have us in their hometown."
Bringing the show on location is a bit of a homecoming for host Julie Chen, a Queens native.
"I start becoming my New Yorker self," she said. "I'm talking a mile a minute. I'm walking fast. I'm like, 'What do you mean I'm talking fast and walking fast?'"
"It's just exciting to take the show on the road," host Sara Gilbert said. "It's fun to be in a new environment and then going to see theater."
As for the biggest difference between the L.A. crowd and New Yorkers?
New Yorkers will "yell some profane, horrible things at you and then they'll go, 'But we love "The Talk." Tell Julie I say 'hey.' Tell Mrs. O (host Sharon Osbourne), "What's up,'" said host Sheryl Underwood.
"It's love. If you don't get cursed out in New York, you're not a real New Yorker," she added.
The show wraps up taping Friday, when the ladies will chat with Tony-nominated star Idina Menzel.
"The Talk" air weekdays at 2 p.m. on CBS 2.

Local architecture firm spreads minimialist vision
Updated 9:47 am, Friday, July 4, 2014
AUSTIN -- A San Antonio-based firm is peppering the country with a scaled back, minimalist vision for the spaces people occupy each day.
Lake | Flato is currently involved in projects in 12 states, according to its website, ranging from the Austin Central Library to a performing arts center in Houston and wineries in California.
In San Antonio, firm architects designed the Full Goods Warehouse and Il Sogno Restaurant, both located at the Pearl Brewery.
The firm is also part of an effort to design a new federal courthouse in San Antonio, slated to open in 2016.
Architects brought a minimalist vision to the Hotel San Jose, located on South Congress Avenue in Austin, and Hotel Havana in San Antonio, said Bob Harris, an architect with the firm.
Speaking about Hotel San Jose, Harris said he and hotel owner Liz Lambert made an effort to create spaces that would bring tenants together in a social context and to integrate the hotel with the surrounding neighborhood. The hotel opened in 2000.
"It wasn't so much about the idea of secluding yourself in the room," Harris said. "The real draw there is the fact that you can go there and meet folks."
"It wasn't trying to compete with these big hotel chains," Harris continued. "It was just trying to be itself."

Shares in Indonesian health product firm PT Kalbe Farma rose 2.7 percent on Tuesday after it announced unaudited full-year 2012 results.
Southeast Asia's top pharmaceutical firm said net profit reached 1.73 trillion rupiah ($178.89 million), up 17 percent from last year. Net sales were 13.63 trillion rupiah, an increase of 24.9 percent.
Kalbe said it expects targeted year-on-year revenue growth and net earnings of 15-18 percent in 2013, with an expected capital expenditure of up to 1.5 trillion rupiah.
"We expect Kalbe to continue its strong performance in 2013 despite the increase in costs. The company generally increases the average selling price by 3-5 percent, which we think could cover cost hike from higher minimum wage and up to 5-10 percent Indonesian rupiah depreciation," Nomura Equity Research said in a note on Tuesday.
Kalbe shares were up 1.82 percent at 1,120 rupiah, while the broader Jakarta Composite Index was down 0.3 percent.
(Reporting by Andjarsari Paramaditha; Editing by Jijo Jacob) **************************************************************** 11:01 05Feb13 -STOCKS NEWS INDONESIA-Multipolar, Matahari continue rally on acquisition deal Shares of Indonesian retailer and IT firm PT Multipolar and supermarket operator PT Matahari Putra Prima jumped as much as 18 percent each on Tuesday, continuing their rallies into a second day following an acquisition deal.
Singapore's state investor Temasek Holdings will indirectly buy a 26.1 percent stake in Indonesia's second biggest hypermarket-chain operator worth $300 million via its controlling shareholder Multipolar, as it aims to tap growing consumer demand in Indonesia
The deal, if concluded, will make Temasek one of the major shareholders in Matahari, beating international retailers such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc that have been trying to buy into the company over the last few years.
Since October, private equity firm CVC Partners has hired CIMB, Morgan Stanley and UBS to sell a stake worth as much as $3.5 billion in Indonesian group PT Matahari Department Store, attracting Japan's Aeon Co Ltd and a unit of Thailand's Central Group.
Multipolar, Matahari Putra Prima and Matahari Department Store are controlled by Indonesian conglomerate Lippo Group.
Multipolar's shares were up 13.64 percent at 500 rupiah while Matahari Putra's shares rose 15.96 percent at 1,770 rupiah. The broader Jakarta Composite index was down 0.11 percent.

Apogee Mk2
Oh boys, there's a lot of work involved in this...
José Bruzual of ECM is really not going to make money with this!
I've read tons of threads about composite construction and molding, all the SG threads, Josè's thread about his beta version and so on.
So since i wanted badly that Apogee i had to scratchbuild it cause I am a scratchbuilder but if you don't have time...:
Last year i built the beta version wich was flying well but was a bit overweight
(about 135g...145g after lots of crashes)
With the beta under my belt i could see what to improve or to try.
I changed about everything...kevlar pod instead of FG, core materials, glassed depron tailfeathers instead of balsa, V-mount instead of two parts stab and 0,5mm carbon pushrods instead of dyneema and elastic.
And I struggled to achieve those weights wich are far from perfection anyway
Now that is final assembly time i feel very pleased of my work and i feel very confident about results.
I'm looking forward to post some completed photos and maiden shots as well.

The 4 Ps
Price, product, promotion and place are the four Ps that are a great foundation and platform for the
marketing start point of any business product or service. In this competitive market, a
comparable market value assessment should be conducted to the product or service prior
to pricing, which should then be promoted to its target consumer and placed within their
demographics. All products or services has its immediate target consumer, but only
proper marketing and promotion will yield new consumers and broaden the margin of
demography outside of estimation. So I ponder how to take control of a structure that was set generations before me, alter it to the benefit of my people and keep the wealth within the community.
It seems like the further you go into the African American community the commercial
scenery has a repetitious and redundant business aspect about it. Every other culture has
stake in business and ownership in the African American community except African
Americans. In Brooklyn the Italians have their pizza shops, the Chinese have their Chinese stores and
cook you food they wouldn't even eat, the Koreans own the beauty supply stores, the
Arabs own the gas stations and the Jews and the Russians own the Therapy and
Chiropractor Services. It would seem that society sees us fit as target consumers for
particular products and services. This isn't by chance; this is by structural demography
which we call the four Ps of marketing.
Proper funding for your business
If money could talk, it would probably say a business without proper funding is a sinking
ship before it is set to sail. One can have the most innovative and ground breaking
product, idea or service but without the proper funding it will never reach the people it's
intended to reach. In today's Market, it may be hard to find a lending source with a
decent interest rate without a personal guarantee. There are many other stipulations that
vary between each business entity, so we should use the utmost degree of due diligence in
selecting the proper funding source. We should explore the different options
for different entities explaining exactly how the funding, the rules, the stipulations and
the terms may vary depending upon the type of business entity seeking the funding and
conclude by identifying the best and most suitable source of funding for this particular business
to start off on the right track.
Advantages and disadvantages of sole proprietorships, general and limited partnerships and corporations
Business in every form, entity, size, capacity and level is what keeps our society thriving.
Every business has its own needs, capabilities, strong points and weak points.
In this blog I will attempt to define and differentiate the legal entities in our society
which businesses can be formed under. I will specify the advantages and disadvantages in
real world scenarios to enable the reader a vivid understanding of each entity in detail.
This blog should give the reader insight into the structure of business from the legal
Stand point to how it is formed and operated in our society. In conclusion to this paper,
the reader will know the differences between a sole proprietorship, general partnership,
limited partnership and corporation.
Every legal business entity has its advantages and disadvantages. There are four different
entities that one may form or organize their business under. A sole proprietorship is a
business with one sole owner or individual. There are not many advantages to a sole
proprietorship. The basic benefits would include the simplicity of filing taxes where only
a self employment form is required. There are also no registration requirements or fees
associated with a sole proprietorship. A disadvantage to this entity is the personal liability
to all debts. Your personal credit and assets are not protected under this form of business
and can result to garnishment, property seizure and a negative credit report due to
excessive and outstanding debt. A sole proprietorship has the most benefits when
it comes to taxes. A sole proprietor doesn't pay payroll or payroll taxes. They can also
save on income taxes and keep their profits. Health care can also be extended to the
spouse of the sole proprietor and then deducted as a reimbursement. This is a significant
long term tax savings. Many people start businesses as sole proprietors to avoid the
expenses of forming a partnership or corporation.
There are two types of partnerships, general and limited partnerships. In a general
partnership all partners will have unlimited liability for all debts incurred, whereas in a
limited partnership all partners have the same unlimited liability for all debts but it is
limited to the contribution or investment each partner has made. In a general partnership
all partners would report their profits, losses, expenses and investment on his/her personal
tax return. There is no registration with the state, written agreement or contract
requirement though it would be in every partner's best interests to have one. The death of
a partner terminates the partnership. General partnerships are taxed in the same manner as
sole proprietorships. With minor differences in tax filing, a limited partnership operates
the same as a general partnership in regards to taxes. A limited partner is one who
invests or contributes to the business and isn't involved in running the business. A
limited partnership has to have one or more partners who runs the business and is liable
for partner's debts. One partner can be both the limited partner and general partner but
there must always be 2 or more partners in a limited partnership. A limited partnership
has to file with the state. One of the advantages of a limited partnership is that it is easier
to attract investors with this type of entity. A limited partner can leave the partnership at
anytime without compromising the business. Overall, a limited partnership has more state
requirements and fees than a general partnership and general partners assume all personal
liability. In a general partnership, each partner may have different visions, goals and
directions they may want to take the company or there may be a significant and unequal
investment in time, finances and labor. All partners in a general partnership will be liable
for each partners actions which can be a huge disadvantage in comparison to a limited
partnership. The advantage is that you can combine expertise, finances and resources
with small start up costs and get business rolling quickly. General partnerships usually
work when each partner shares or equally contributes time, labor and financial
commitment. Each partner should bring a different expertise strength and skill in order
for a general partnership to thrive.
The last entity is the corporation. A corporation to me is the business with the umbrella.
A corporation may act, conduct business, enter contracts and agreements like a real living
person but is protected beyond personal debts and assets with far more tax breaks and
options than an individual entity or partnership depending upon the state the business was
incorporated in. Personal credit and assets are not at stake in debt reconciliation or
satisfaction. This is what I mean by the "umbrella". Corporations only pay taxes on
profits, salaries and bonuses. Corporations may offer stock options to its investors. An
owner can also take salaries, bonuses and dividends as an employee of his/her own
corporation. Multiple owners of a corporation are called shareholders. Shareholders are
not involved in operations of the corporation. Unless there is a buy-sell agreement clause
a shareholder may buy, sell or transfer as many shares he/she may wish at any giving
time. The only disadvantages that come to mind are the fees that it costs to get a
corporation started. Also an extensive form of organization has to be conducted as far as
paperwork is concerned. The corporation must file all taxes at the appropriate times.
Assets and corporate bank accounts must be kept totally separate from personal bank
accounts to avoid any type of income, profit or wage confusion or IRS audit. All licenses
must be maintained and every meeting, corporate action, expense, donations and/or
sponsorships should be well documented and able to be furnished at any time if required
to. The option to incorporate your business should be for the more serious business
minded people who seek asset protection under a corporate umbrella who intend on doing
big business and registering with the Secretary of State.
This is the ideal option for

Barbed wire changed the face of The West, from wide open plains to neat packages framed by 'The Devil's Rope' that imprisoned horses, cattle and cowboys.
Much of the barbed wire produced one hundred years ago is still manufactured today by Bekaert, a Belgium-based international firm with 95 manufacturing plants worldwide. However, like most things today, barbed wire has been improved. Bekaert's modern barbed wire, called Gaucho, weighs half as much as yesterday's barbed wire with the same strength, and comes with twice the galvanization to prevent rusting.
Launched by Leo Leander Bekaert in 1880, the manufacturer of steel wire, steel wire products, and steel cord advanced materials ventured into the North American marketplace in the 1970s, buoyed by the use of steel cord for reinforcing rubber products, particularly radial tires.
The firm prides itself on taking maximum advantage of opportunities for growth in fast-growing niche markets.
With plants worldwide, and 95 in the United States alone, the largest located in Van Buren, Arkansas, the Bekaert plant in Vancouver, British Columbia, Titan Steel & Wire Ltd. may not be the company's flagship. It is, however a highly productive importer of steel from Asia and a supplier of a dozen or more wire products throughout North America and Asia.
Located on the Fraser River and sharing dock space with Fraser Surrey Docks Ltd., Titan Steel & Wire imports about 50,000 tons of steel rod annually from offshore which is manufactured into steel wire, some coated with zinc or aluminum.
'We do seven wire strand that is used in such things as holding up telephone poles or cable vision lines,' said Bob Nanson, Plant Manager. 'We also make ACSR wire that is aluminum core, steel reinforced wire or cable that is used to carry electricity.
'Our part of that is to make the steel part. We are the strength. We hold it together,' he said. 'Other people will finish off the cable and wrap aluminum around our steel wire or cable,' he said. 'That is what is used to carry electricity.'
Another specialty product turned out by Titan Steel and Wire is PC Strand, a pre-stressed wire used to reinforce concrete beams.
'Concrete beams always use this material,' Nanson said. 'Without it the beam would fall down.'
Other products, called merchant products, consist of such things as barbed wire.
'The fences we make are high tensile fences, not chain link,' he said. 'We're making fences that are used to contain animals.'
Shipping details
Titan Steel and Wire's market is primarily the Pacific Northwest. 'Out of the 50,000 tons imported, probably 60% stays in Canada,' he said. A large percentage goes to the US and roughly 15%t goes to the East Coast.
'The rod comes in by boat,' Nanson said. 'It's offloaded onto Fraser Surrey Docks and they bring it across onto our property. That's a fairly efficient way of getting rod to our steel mill.'
'Most of what we ship out of here goes out by truck. Some travels by rail, but the predominance would be by truck. Rail transport, usually on BNSF or CN Rail, is shipped as piggy-back cargo.
'If it's going overseas it would go by boat in containers. Any steel we ship overseas goes in containers. It's usually a galvanized product. It's usually shipped in smaller units,
Nanson said Titan Steel & Wire has 'had some success' marketing its products in Asia.
'Some of it is more exotic wire. If you look at strand, ACSR is more difficult to make than guy strand because of lengths of very particular strength, elongations are very particular ' specifications are tighter. The same thing happens to wire. If wire's being used for chain link, then anybody can make it. Length is not an issue, you can weld it together. But, when you get into optic fiber reinforcing cables it's much more exotic.
'When they wrap their optic fibers around your wire, they don't

Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes Takes Control Over New TMNT
by Alex Billington
May 27, 2010
Source: Deadline
Aw hell no! We've got some bad news to report on today. Deadline is saying that Paramount, who picked up all of the rights to TMNT through Nickolodeon, has "brought on" Michael Bay and his production company Platinum Dunes to develop the new live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie that's currently in the works. Platinum Dunes, run by producers Andrew Form and Brad Fuller, is usually known for making horror movies, mostly remakes, so they're trying something new by taking this on. The producers will start meeting with writers over the next few weeks, which may mean they'll be going at this from scratch again.
Back in April of last year it was announced that a new live-action TMNT movie was in the works, due in 2011 or 2012, and it was being developed by co-creator Peter Laird and (at the time) Legendary Pictures. But then Nickelodeon bought all the TMNT rights for $60 million and then Paramount gained control of the project. Thankfully, producers Galen Walker and Scott Mednick, who spoke at Comic-Con just last year about making this a darker movie inspired by the comics, are still on-board. However, that script from John Fusco might be thrown out or reworked, but we don't know for sure, since not much else was revealed by Deadline.
Here's the thing - I don't have as big of a gripe with Platinum Dunes as most people do, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller are good people who are just trying to make good movies, but I just would've preferred someone else to develop this project. Deadline's article reads like Michael Bay is going to have his hands deep into this project, which I also don't want, but I guess there's not much we can do about that. I don't think Bay's influence has hurt any of Platinum Dunes' other horror movies, so I'll be hoping for the best with TMNT in the end. We'll keep you updated on all the latest regarding this project as things continue to move forward.

Alternative Title: enol form
Learn about this topic in these articles:
genetic mutations
...form occasionally changes spontaneously to the enol form, which has different base-pairing properties. For example, the keto form of cytosine pairs with guanine (its normal pairing partner), but the enol form of cytosine pairs with adenine. During DNA replication, this adenine base will act as the template for thymine in the newly synthesized strand. Therefore, a CG base pair will have mutated...
...As a result, a carbonyl compound with an α-hydrogen can exist in two isomeric forms, called tautomers. In the keto form, the hydrogen is bonded to the α-carbon, while in the enol form it is bonded to the carbonyl oxygen with the migration of the double bond. ...
Acids and bases both bring about the establishment of an equilibrium between ketones (or aldehydes) and their enol forms, which contain a hydroxyl group directly attached to a doubly bonded carbon atom:

The 67's had no trouble scoring in Kingston yesterday.
But neither did the Frontenacs.
Connor Cameron scored with 28 seconds remaining as the Frontenacs edged the 67's 9-8 at the Kingston Memorial Centre.
The game-winner came shortly after Matt Lahey beat Kingston goalie Daryl Borden with 1:06 left in the third to even the score for the 67's.
"When (Lahey) scored, I thought that we'd get to overtime and there was some hope, but we didn't get that far," said a disgruntled 67's coach Brian Kilrea after the game.
"We just made a lot of mistakes. We had a chance to get the puck deep in their end, but we didn't. Then we had a chance to get it out of our end, but we didn't, and we paid for it."
The loss was 67's third straight, dropping their record to 8-11-1-1.
Danny Battochio started in net for Ottawa, but was taken out after allowing three goals early in the first period.
"We were being badly outplayed," said Kilrea, whose team trailed 3-1 when Battochio left the net in favour of Brady Morrison, a former Kingston goalie.
"We've relied on Danny so many times this year. We just played so poorly at the start and really he was being hung out to dry. We did everything wrong. They got breakaways, 2-on-1s, 3-on-1s."
The Frontenacs led 6-2 early in the second, but the 67's rallied with three straight goals before the end of the period, then tied it on a Chris Hulit marker five minutes into the third.
Twice, Kingston regained the lead, only to have the 67's get even.
Logan Couture scored his eighth goal of the year in the 14th minute of the final period to make it 7-7.
Kingston's Bobby Hughes scored his second goal of the game during a power play a minute later to regain the lead, before Lahey tied it with just over a minute remaining.
Veteran Bryan Bickell had a four-point game with a goal and three assists, while Hulit scored a pair and added a helper.
Julian Talbot and two rookies -- Pat Daley and Shea Kewin -- also scored for the 67's.
Hughes had two goals and a pair of assists for Kingston and Chris Stewart scored and set up three others.
Todd Griffith added two goals for Kingston, with singles from Peder Skinner, Tony Rizzi and Cory Emmerton.
The 67's will try to break out of their slump on Friday when they host Belleville at the Civic Centre.

wikiHow to Have a Job on Animal Jam
Two Methods:Starting your own businessGetting a job at an existing businessCommunity Q&A
Are you bored on animal jam and looking for a way to spice up your life in Jam? Get a job! Here's how to start!
Starting your own business
1Get enough gems. Go to the Sol Arcade and play games like Sky High, Best Dressed, and Temple Trivia.
2Decorate your house like your office.
3Once you have enough things, get the right clothing. (A tie and hat for boys if your a member boy you could get a black Fedora. A designer skirt and high heels for member girls, for non members try a flower and your favorite outfit)
4Play games to get achievements! They show that you are a jammer who has had fun, and respects AJ rules, and show that you are not playing a prank.
5Advertise! You won't get clients if you don't. Attract attention by dancing and talking in caps. LIKE THIS! Don't forget to make it clear what kind of business your running, confused workers might quit their jobs.
Getting a job at an existing business
1Look professional. Member boys should wear a tuxedo (found at epic wonders). Member girls should wear diamond earrings, designer skirt, and a diamond necklace (all should be the same color).
2Decide where you would like to work. Good jobs include: Sol Arcade, Club Geoz, Captain Melville's juice hut, hot cocoa hut, jam mart clothing or jam mart furniture, or be a doctor or nurse at the medical center. Go to the Medical Center, Juice Hut, or other places and take a role-play as a worker there. This is easier than the first way but you may have more clients! Or, you might go to someone that is advertising a restaurant or other business.
3Have fun. Animal jam is not serious, it's supposed to be fun.

- You don't really need membership, but if you want the fox, member den items & things like that, you may want to.
- Use the bamboo fence to separate the offices. You don't want any arguing over who works where!
- Don't give wrong information; they may block you.
- Some members might try to scam you by saying they won't work unless they are given rares.
- Do not be mean; nobody appreciates a mean jammer and it can lead to your being blocked.
- Do not attempt to trade den items that are for members (if you are a non member)! It will match, but not go in because it is meant for members!

Diablo 3 Barbarian
I've always enjoyed playing tanks. When I played Dark Age of Camelot, I played the Hibernian Hero. When I played World of Warcraft, Staghorn the Warrior, not Oxhorn, was my first character. When I play Oxhorn the Druid, I roll feral. I love tanks.
This is why I started with the Barbarian, and I couldn't be happier. Watch me play the first half of Act I in the Diablo 3 beta below, and then I'll break down the Barbarian class.
Oxhorn Plays the Diablo 3 Barbarian
Part I
Part 2
Barbarian – What Is It
The Barbarian is a meat-shield-damage-dealer. He specializes in taking damage and dealing damage. The Barbarian can wear all heavy armor and has a number of abilities that can hit single targets and multiple targets.
Diablo 3 Barbarian – Armor
As with many RPGs, you start out wearing cloth and leather scraps. However, over time the Barbarian can wear the best plate armor in the game. He can also use shields, but at the same time he can dual-wield weapons or use two-handed weapons.
Diablo 3 Barbarian – Weapons
The Barbarian can wield all weapons in the game, except for staves, bows and wands. He specializes in wielding two-handed weapons.
Diablo 3 Barbarian Abilities
The Barbarian's abilities are divided into three types; those that generate FURY, those that consume FURY and those that are situational–some are 'EPIC' abilities that consume energy and are on long cooldowns; some consume and generate nothing, but are on a long COOLDOWN, and others are available only when a certain EVENT takes place (like making a critical hit, for example).
The Diablo III Beta is limited, and so we have access to only a few of the Barbarian's abilities. I will share with you what the Barbarian can do so far, with a guide on how to kill the Skeleton King at the end.

How to Defeat the Skeleton King as a Barbarian
By the time you reach the Skeleton King you will onlybe level 8 or 9. I suppose you could be much higher if you leveled a lot, and if so, ignore this. But here is the strategy.
The Skeleton King is a dual-weilding, hard hitting melee monster. With your templar friend that you picked up along the way set to heal, just dive right in and attack the King with your Barbarian.
Every now and then he teleports and summons a horde of skeletons. This is why you should have Cleave set to your left-click mouse button. This way, you can focus your attacks on the King and you'll end up killing all skeletons in your way at the same time.
Set your right-mouse button to Leap Attack, so that you can instantly engage the King again when he teleports away, instead of being held back by the skeletons. Use whatever combination of Fury consuming spells you wish in the intereim. I liked using Hammer of the Ancients. So, the battle goes like this:
- Engage with Hammer of the Ancients and Cleave.
- When he teleports away and summons skeletons, use Leap Attack to jump to him and spam Cleave on him until all the skeletons around you are dead. Then resume with Hammer of the Ancients.
- Profit.
There you go! Please leave me a comment with your thoughts on this guide and watch my other Diablo 3 videos.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Taliban militants in Pakistan's South Waziristan tribal region on Saturday released eight hostages who were kidnapped over a year ago.
The eight hostages were kidnapped on August 15, 2012, as they were traveling from the Gomal Zam Dam project, where they all worked, to Tank, Dawn News reported.
The illegal Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan released a video of the abducted workers about a month after they disappeared in which the workers are heard pleading to the government to fulfill the militants' demands.
A Taliban spokesman said the workers were released as a "goodwill gesture" from the militants following successful negotiations with tribal councils.

A couple years ago, I was intrigued that a number of young women were making a living as professional mermaids. (See Water Ways, Jan. 27, 2014). Since then, the idea of becoming a mermaid for a day, a week or longer has caught on, with mermaid schools opening throughout the world.
Crimson Resort and Spa in the Philippines claims to be the first mermaid school in the world, but others were soon behind.
In New York, World of Swimming, a nonprofit corporation, inspires young people to become swimmers through lessons, swimming camps and other activities.
The first short video on this page features young mermaid swimmers accompanied by music as they swim about by swishing their tails. In the second video (also below), ABC News reporter Sara Haines takes the plunge in a first-person report to see what it is like to become a mermaid. The piece made the airwaves on Good Morning America.
In Vermont, reporter Sarah Tuff Dunn goes to mermaid school for the online publication "Seven Days" and is thoroughly enchanted after putting on her mermaid tail with its built-in swim fins.
"I felt the tail rise as if magically," she wrote. "I released my hands from the wall and began to swim … like a mermaid. A doggy-paddling mermaid, mind you, and one who momentarily panicked when she realized she couldn't scissor-kick her legs."
Sarah, who soon catches on to swimming like a dolphin, discusses the risks of drowning with one's legs tied together, and she explains why mermaid schools tend to emphasize safety.
What I find interesting about this mermaid trend is that children are getting excited about swimming. Being a mermaid or merman expands their confidence as they hold their breath under water for longer periods of time while building up their muscles for what could become a lifelong interest in aquatic sports — or at least some basic survival skills.
For those who operate or would like to operate a mermaid school, there is a newly formed International Mermaid Swimmers Instructors Association.
Other mermaid schools:
- AquaMermaid or Aquasirene, Toronto, billed as Canada's first mermaid school. YouTube video.
- FreeDive, UK, billed as the first mermaid school in Great Brittain.
- Mayim Mermaid Academy, South Coast, United Kingdom.
- Sirenas Mediterranean Academy, billed as Spain's first school for mermaids, featured in the Wall Street Journal.

Mr ProgressionStudios,
Is there any reason why Disqus comments system will not show up for me in the post? I use it on all my other sites and love it, but I can't get it to show up on this theme.
No reason why they wouldn't show up. The comments system we are using is the same one used on the Default 'TwentyEleven' theme.
If you are still having trouble, then send me an e-mail and I'll help you out.
Yeah, if I use the default comment system things are fine, but immediately activating DISQUS yields a blank slate. Have you tried any other comments systems with the template?
Upon a load of the page I can see the DISQUS panel load and then disappear. It's as if something in the theme itself is keeping it from displaying. I am only running two other plugins at the moment. Gravity Forms and WP-reCAPTCHA so I doubt I have any conflicts there.
Got your e-mail, checking it out right now .
First, awesome theme! I really like the flexibility, unlimited colors, etc. Well done!
On the demo, you have the social icons under contact information. How do you stack those two widgets? I try to place the text widget (address and contact info) and then in the same footer1 box I place the social icons.
How do you stack them?
It's just one "Adora: Social Widget" in "Footer Widget 1" spot. I just placed this bit of HTML Code inside the 'Description' box without a Title. Here is the code I placed in the description box:

1600 Holloway Ave.

San Francisco, CA

In other words, all you have to do is add text in the description box or utilize the title and you will have text above the social networking icons.
awesome! Thanks!!
Check out my site: http://www.thorpeshomefinishings.com/
On the main menu you will see that Contact Us has dropped to the next line while there is a spot for it to the left.
Great job with the theme so far. You just ran out of room in the navigation. There is only so much space for navigation items and then they will drop off to the next line. You can make a slight modification to the font-sizes in the navigation to fit that last menu item via CSS . Or you can change the menu item to "Contact" instead of "Contact us" (or About Us to About).
Go ahead and send me an e-mail if you need help adjusting the navigation.css file. I can let you know which area to modify if you want to fit the last menu item.
Got it, thanks!
Hello I am new to Wordpress and I am having trouble uploading your theme. Even when I updated to wordpress 3.2.1 it still gave me the same message: Out of memory (allocated 60817408) (tried to allocate 40146967 bytes) in /home/uclick/public_html/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 671…...
Can you help me please!
You are likely uploading the entire downloaded folder. Make sure you unzip the first downloaded file. E-mail me if you still are having trouble.
Great theme! Is it possible to make the portfolio item into a complete page with more information about the item? The portfolio pages look great but they lack the room for information.
Yeah, you can do this with a simple checkbox in the options panel. The Read More button will then take you to a Portfolio Item page with more information . Let me know if you have anymore pre-purchase questions.
Hi Mike,
can you please help me using multiple blogs. You said that i "need to create two seperate blog templates and exclude certain categories".
Thanks, Antonis
Yeah, go ahead and send me an e-mail Antonis and I'll help you out. You can find my e-mail in the documentation or via the contact form on my profile page.
I just purchased the Adora 1.0 theme and wanted to make sure this theme is using the latest TimThumb version? Please advise.
Nope, we aren't using TimThumb script at all, so you don't have to worry about it. We are using the built-in WordPress image resizing features. We tend to stay away from the TimThumb script when possible.
Just purchased this awesome theme, and am wondering how I can change the height of full width slider, I am digging through the CSS and php files, I found the function.php and change reference but I can find that actual div code
Go ahead and send me an e-mail and I'll help you out with this. I would be happy to point you in the right direction. You can reach me via the contact form on my profile page or my e-mail address included in the documentation.
However, I have troubles with the breadcrumbs when browsing WP e-commerce pages / categories.
It outputs links like this one :
ProductsPage
Any help would be much appreciated on how to fix this !
Best regards !
Well it is an issue with the plugin, not the bread-crumbs in the theme. You can remove the bread-crumbs or download another bread-crumb plugin if you want to try and find one that works with your 3rd party plugin.
Feel free to send me an e-mail and I can help you out.
Great theme! One question, how do I add an image without the standard border around it?
(Im trying to put in a transparent .png image, but it adds the white border/edge around it)
You can get around this easily by adding a class of "no border" to the images. Just tab over to the HTML Editor and add the class like so:

Feel free to e-mail me if you need any help.
Thanks! Such a cool theme.
I am planning to use this great template. I have two questions:
1. If I use the blog as my default page. Can I still use the 3 Unique Featured Sliders as apart of my blog page?
2. Can I modify the height of the 3 Unique Featured Sliders?
Thank you in advance.
1) Yeah you can still use the featured sliders as part of a blog. We have this template built-in.
2) Modifying the height of the featured sliders is not built-in to the theme. Although it is possible with a bit of customizing. If you know CSS , I can point you in the right direction.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
hI i GOT PROBLEM ON VIEW PORTFOLIO ITEMS , AS PAGE , i CANT MAKE VISIBLE read more BUTTON , PLEASE CAN YOU TELL ME WHY ?
Go ahead and send me an e-mail. Make sure to include a link to your site.
Note the documentation explains how to get the read more button. It's the same on both the Blog and the Portfolio. "Using the Blog" section "Using the 'Insert More' Tag". You just have to click the insert more tag and the button will show up. Screen-shot of where to click
sorry , I try to upload portofilio with 3 columes, and want them to link to there original pages, so right now its not show the READ MORE : or VIEW MORE :
Yeah, see my directions above. If you are still having trouble then send me an e-mail and I'll help you out in more detail. It should be fairly straight forward to add the "Read More" text. I think you are over-thinking it .
Thank you works
Awesome, feel free to e-mail me in the future if you have any other questions. I'm always happy to answer questions.
Hi there – I'm relatively new to wordpress – my page names are not showing on the navigation bar??? www.carolynclarkdfw.com/rps
I will have 4 pages that I need on the navigation bar but I cannot find where to add or edit what should be on it. There is nothing on the dashboard or in the theme settings that I can find. Maybe I am not looking in the right place???
Yeah you will have to see the documentation on "Navigation Menus". It will walk you through setting up the menu's. If you want a quick-start, look up how to install the demo content.
Thanks so much for your patience with such a newbie – next question: How do I change font size or type in the navigation menu?
Go ahead and send me an e-mail and I will help you out that way. That way we can go back and forth and I can send you code.
Sorry to seem completely dense, but by 'email' do you mean for me to send a support ticket? I'm not finding an email address anywhere on these pages so far…
Nope, no support ticket just an e-mail. You can reach me via the e-mail address included in the documentation. Or via the Contact Form on the bottom right side of my Profile Page titled "Email ProgressionStudios".
Mike – Many thanks. Email sent.
Hi Mike, The Portfolio is not working. I can't get two column three column or four column show up. I followed your general videos. I made the "type" to try out the one-three column. I made "categories" for the four column. Under portfolio added new pages assigned them appropriately…..ect Everything appears as a blog page it says: blog archives. My site is only running on MAMP . But I can send you a Screen capture pictures about any part of the dashboard. Please tell me what is wrong. I have your email. Can we discuss this in email? Ildiko
Yeah, go ahead and send me an e-mail with a screen-capture since your running it on a local installation. It should be something small that I can help you out with.

My wife, Elaine and I started puzzling about 6 years ago. The first puzzle we did was of a Wolf and in the shape of a Wolf. From there we started doing our own 1,000 piece puzzles. After doing 3 of those I wanted a challenge so I did 'Tropical Impressions', 18,000, which went on the wall with the others. Not having a lot of wall space left in the games room I did 'Zodiac', 9,000, 'Map of the World 1611', 9,000 and 'Balloon Glow', 6,000, all of which are up on the ceiling. Even after completing 'Life', I still think 'Balloon Glow' is the hardest puzzle I've done.
Doing puzzles is my hobby, I do not set myself goals to finish a puzzle by a set date,it has become something I really enjoy doing when I have the time. While doing 'Life' there were plenty of days when I did not have the time to do anything to the puzzle, plus of course, holidays took me away from it as well.
I start puzzles by sorting the colours then sort them into the various shapes which are then placed on boards face up. I've made a rack that holds 18 boards 60cms x 80cms, these boards hold the 6,000 pieces in each section easily. I did the puzzle in 2 halves, when I'd completed the first half I glued it onto 9mm board using a spray adhesive. When I finished the second half I mounted them both on the wall in our games room, it was the only bit of wall space left and it had a small window that the puzzle covers. Instead of calling it the games room I think we should now call it the puzzle room, we now have 1 x 24,000, 1 x 18,000, 2 x 9,000, 1 x 6,000, 1 x 2,000, and 18 x 1,000.
Most of the 1,000 piece puzzles were completed by my wife who I let complete 'Life' by putting in the last piece.

It begins one rainy dawn: Orville Brame, prominent lawyer and president of the American Bar Association, is found shot through the heart, slumped in a monorail, silently circling downtown Sydney. The next day, the body of a security guard is fished out of the harbor. During the ensuing investigation, a talented rookie cop is ruthlessly gunned down.
The trail Inspector Scobie Malone uncovers leads to betrayal - betrayal between brothers, when jealousy causes estrangement and murder, and betrayal between countrymen, when cynicism triumphs over patriotism and sparks a multimillion-dollar international intrigue.

A Tip For Tuesday
And taking a little for yourself.
I know it's hard. After all, you most likely feel as if your writing time is your 'me' time. But writing is exhausting as well as exhilerating. It's easy to get drained. Add to that the other responsibilities we all juggle, and before we know it, we're sapped.
I know when I'm working on a first draft, the story can consume me. I'm thinking about it all the time. In the shower, in the car, before I fall asleep at night, while I'm cleaning or grocery shopping. Reading used to be a big escape for me, but that only works now if I'm reading outside the genre I write. If I'm reading historical romance, I tend to read more for a learning experience than for escapism. I'm sizing up the story, the plot, the characters, the craft. What once provided a break from my everyday life now steers me deeper into the writing mode.
I've found I need to find different ways to turn my mind away from the writing world, as wonderful as it is. I have a weekly date with my husband. I go for walks. I listen to music. I play computer games.
I love having this bit of downtime. I come back refreshed and renewed and ready to tackle those goals.
What about you? Do you need downtime? How do you recharge your batteries?

I would like to know how Sherrinda lies on the couch and plays Wii tennis. I have to be standing to play tennis.ReplyDelete
Erica, I have to have downtime. I also like to read outside my genre for a relaxing read. But I also make sure I exercise and curly up with my family for a good movie.
I was wondering the same thing about laying on the couch to play tennis on the Wii. I gotta get me a Wii...ReplyDelete
CJ, IM is :D
Wendy, I love to play music loud, especially when I'm doing the dreaded e.x.e.r.c.i.z.e.

Have you tried usb loader gx 3.0? Also have you installed anything like the D2X?
I did my 2 wii's following the softmod guide bc my older one the drive doesnt work. I have a friend who asked if I could softmod his wii bc his kids are scratching the disks. I agreed to do so. well this time when following the guide it seems like everything is updated to a newer version. My problem that I have is that the Hard drive I ordered for him doesnt work. but works fine on my wiis. So I thought maybe its just the Hard drive so I tried another one on his system that works on mine. no luck CFG doesnt run the games.. it can see the games but doesnt run them.. I have 3 different hard drives.. they all work fine on my 2 wiis but have issues on the other one.. I have already posted a system check and it all checked out fine. looking for other options. I went back through the softmod a second time and double check to make sure I did it correct both times.. still no luck any ideas out there?
Have you tried usb loader gx 3.0? Also have you installed anything like the D2X?
I get same results using usb loader as well. I dont know what d2x is... if it was included with the softmod guide then i guess i have it. if not then no. can i just copy my sd card in the other wii to get the older versions of cfg ? and work maybe or can you not downgrade.. i read somewhere if you downgrade you could brick the wii or something like that
I click your guide and tutorials and seem something about dx2 there if install that will it fix my problems?

My Story
- Artist: Katora Jenee
- Genre: Gospel
- Release Date: 11/30/2004
My name Katora Jenee I am 14 years old. I was born with a serious skin disorder called Epidermolysis Bullosa short for (EB). This disorder causes my skin to constantly be hyper sensitive to heat even touch. I live with chronic pain, doing the simplest things like bathing, walking even eating can aggravate my skin condition and cause my throat to blister. I often wish I could be like other kids when I am looking out through the window, desperately wishing to play and be free like an ordinary child. Because of my condition I have been raised in an secluded environment from every day life. It hurts me to have to live this way but God has blessed me with such an amazing talent I sing in the youth choir at church. I am really insisting on going to public school but it frightens my parents a lot. Although I have been raised in a sheltered enviroment I am a very strong minded person and even with my condition I am determined to become a R&B/Gospel Singer. I have accepted my condition and still will continue to pursue my hopes and dreams and I know with Gods help I will succeed. To myself I have a strong heart and a relentless passion and I am glad that through this I have both my parents to stand by me through whatever path I end up on. I hope that I will be heard and give hope to all the other people in the world living with the same condition or any other condition. This is why I am writing this letter because I have an opportunity to share my story, and my struggles and dreams with so many other people. All I can do is share my strength and upcoming adventures and I hope you know that with faith we can over come anything when we have Jesus in our lives. 'For my strength lies in me, by knowing that through everthing I go through there is a purpose for me in life because I have the ability to do whatever it takes for me to be the person I know that I can be with the help of God and my Family in my life. Thank you for hearing my story. Sincerely, Katora Jenee.
