7:04 am
this is where the snow will roll here. 5 to 10 inches of snow. actual la, little rock, i don't remember when little rock had christmas day snow. 1926 was the last time. now you have seen the boards. this is likely to be a travel trouble. alex perez is standing by in chicago o'hare. >> reporter: the first big wave of holiday travellers got their start over the weekend. the second wave will begin soon. along with the front of bad weather looking to spoil christmas plans and the next several days for millions. from san francisco to syracuse, many around the country are finding their holiday travel plans ruined. a huge snowstorm on the west coast hit northern california hard, causing hundreds of delays and canceled flights in and out of san francisco. with the average delay lasting over two hours. the high winds and severe conditions have left many

embraced shopping marathon mentalities. the toys "r" us times square location has been opened if more than 500 hours straight, closing finally at 10:00 tonight. if you have had it with crowds and scores, there's hope on the web. a gift card, an e-book and online sup description is easy. >> you could pull the, i left my gift at home card, and wait until the 26th to shop. >> reporter: unlike black friday, a lot of people had to wait online for hours for the dealbusters. many of the deals will not expire. wait until "gma" is over, then come to the stores. >> good to know. i'm stressed out about how many presents we still have to buy today. >> when we gave that number, 10% still left to buy, i questioned
7:09 am
that number. we're going turn now to the looming fiscal cliff. eight days until we head over it, when just about everyone's taxes will go up. rather than moving together, the two sides seem to be literally moving further apart. the president in hawaii for the holiday, congress left the capital with no deal in sight. jon karl is in washington. they needed to get it done before new year's to see this thing get done. has the time to have that happen already passed? >> well, it's getting -- there's not much hope out there. i gotta tell you. just over a week left, josh. and the speaker of the house and the president did not even speak over the weekend. the last time they had a conversation was a brief phone conversation on friday. no signs of progress on anything since then. there wasn't much before, as you
7:10 am
know. now the white house is looking at a fallback plan. just a stop-gap bill they're hoping congress would do that would delay the tax increases on people making over $250,000 from going into effect. it would extend unemployment benefits and delay spending cuts going into effect on january 1st. even accomplishing that will be difficult. congress comes back two days after christmas. that gives them four dice come to an agreement and pass something. not an easy task. >> so we know what it means for the average men. what happens in washington if we go over the cliff? >> the biggest question here is, big tax increases for everybody. the automatic spending cuts to the pentagon have huge ramifications. and most economists would say if this happens, there's major risk that the economy goes back into
7:11 am
recession. >> jon karl, not the news we wanted to hear. thank you. now to paula faris with the top stories. good morning. >> merry christmas eve to both of you. good luck with the shopping. >> we need it. we begin in afghanistan. for the first time ever, a female officer is the one who opened fire. an afghan policewoman shot and killed a u.s. military adviser just outside the police head quarters in kabul. vietnamese fishermen rescued a florida man on a disabled yacht. he and three others were towing the yacht from the philippines when the tow rope broke. a senator from idaho is apologizing this morning after he was arrested over the weekend for driving drunk.

7:16 am
toy give away for surviving sandy hook students. so far, more than 60,000 stuffed animals and thousands of toys have been collected. an uplifting start to a long process of healing. josh, back to you. >> lovely thing to know that so many people are out there. a christmas mystery solved. rudolph the red-nosed reindeer may have had a shiny red nose. but, wait -- there's actually a new study, by dutch and norwegian scientists that reveals why. if you don't believe me, there's nick watt. ♪ rudolph the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose ♪ >> reporter: he's the most renowned of reindeer. the star of song and screen. ♪ all of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names ♪ >> reporter: but, there's a whispering campaign.
7:17 am
is are yrudolph just another dr? reindeer have lots and lots of vessels going their snout to keep them cozy. that's why rudolph's snoez red. so then why don't prancer, dancer, et al., also have glowing noses? >> sorry. >> reporter: try again? >> rudolph is the front of the sleigh, in the dreekt line of earth turbulence. he would need to keep his nose warmer than the rest. >> reporter: we caught up with a couple of reindeer in annen natural habitat. a california beach. it looks warm. >> yes, very. he's got fur on his nose. most deer don't have that. >> reporter: he's got hairier nostrils than my grand dad. if he was going to fly, he needs wings? >> no, they have magic. >> reporter: which takes us back

Unanswered: Sending audio frequency to USB port
How can I send a sound to a USB port at a specified frequency and length?
BEEP IS NOT WHAT I Need! I may need to send 10502 Hz for 3 minutes; later, 988 Hz for 1 minute.
I need code (please, if possible) not OCX, VXD or DLL, etc. If not possible, a freeware code.

Welcome to the Forum...
Odd request to place into this particular forum unless of course you are attempting GPS Asset Tracking or something to that nature. In any case, to do this without the use of at least DLL librarys even through C would be like jumping off a cliff and then inventing a means to fly on your way down. In VB or VBA...you may as well rip your underware off and stick'em over your head. At least that way you wont see when you hit the ground and failed.
You will at least need to use some Windows API functions to get near your task. One in particular would be the DeviceIoControl API function which is contained within the Kernel32.DLL file. All current Windows platforms contain this DLL.
To do what you want is an in depth task and I personnally will not get into it here but attached is a document that can help get you started in either VB or C. There could be an entire forum based on this topic alone.

It might be like Tajin. I remember reading the label and it had cayenne, salt, lime. Does anyone have a recipe for this great stuff. It's awesome on fruit.

I am enclosing a copy of the letter and the Money Advice Service booklet I recently received from Aegon in anticipation of my pension savings and my approaching retirement date in October.
I believe it shows Aegon's customer service to be at best misleading and at worst duplicitous. The balance of the letter is almost completely about choosing an annuity and the booklet was published in 2013 and is therefore hopelessly out of date.
One does not have to be a financial sleuth to understand why Aegon has sent out these communications, insofar as its best interests are served if retirees continue to have to take out almost worthless annuities. There may well be vulnerable people receiving such communications who will take an option that is against their interests based on the skewed "advice" they have received.
Can you comment?
ES, Kent
You were justifiably concerned that on May 28 2014, Aegon was still sending an out-of-date booklet plus advice that did not factor in the pension changes in George Osborne's March 2014 Budget speech.
The 30-page Money Advice Service booklet was dated 2013 and was then the latest available. This, Aegon said, was sent out in accordance with guidelines set out according to the retirement code outlined by the ABI, the Association of British Insurers.
The ABI said these were Financial Conduct Authority rules and the main guide, "Your Pension: it's time to choose", is mentioned in the FCA's rulebook and is required to be sent. Also needed was a written summary of the saver's "open market option", covering their right to shop around for an annuity. Alternatively, a statement giving materially the same options could be sent.
A statement from the Money Advice Service's chief executive said: "Just after the Budget, we put up information about the changes to pension rules in a prominent place on our web homepage. This meant that consumers could access the facts about the changes easily and quickly. There was a delay in updating our guide in print but that was because it needed a comprehensive rewrite to reflect all the changes, had to be fully checked by our regulators, designed and printed. Our key partners were all informed that the guide was being reproduced."
The seismic changes in pensions do amount, of course, to exceptional circumstances but I feel Aegon fell down here. I mentioned that it could have put an extra statement in with what you received.
Aegon sends out packs four months prior to the nominated retirement date (which is the one you were writing about) and then, depending on the type of policy the customer has, eight or six weeks in advance of a customer's retirement.
Aegon took a while to come back with a response to my further query. It said information about the Budget changes was also on the Aegon website from the end of March 2014. In June 2014 it started sending out the latest up-to-date MAS booklet as soon as it was printed.
Where it fell down was in not having sent an Aegon 2014 Budget information fact sheet it had made up in the early warning letter packs such as you received. This even though it had been enclosing it in its eight/six-week retirement quote packs since April 25.
Further to my involvement it started including the fact sheet in the early warning letter packs as well. It also now went to all its customers who requested a retirement quote pack or contacted it after receiving the initial early warning pack. So your query has had a result.
All customers, including those who didn't receive the latest version of the MAS booklet in their early warning pack, will receive the updated MAS booklet as well as the aforementioned fact sheet from Aegon in their retirement quote pack eight/six weeks prior to retirement. See moneyadviceservice.org.uk if you want to check out the MAS booklet.
I can quite see why you were cross.

Today we're really excited to bring you our review of the Lawrence elite 5 HDI. Now I've got to tell you, this is one of my all time favorite fish finders currently available on the market. For 9 out of 10 people that ask me which fish finder to buy, this is the one that I recommend the most because it's just so awesome.
Let's dive right in and see what it's all about.
Check Amazon To View Current Pricing
So first off is the screen size, one nice element of the elite 5 is its compact size, however, it's not too compact since it has a nice 5-inch screen, which is super important as you want to see where the fish are right? So a nice size screen with a great definition is a must. The elite-5 HDI is the upgraded version of the elite-5, including the same great build quality.
So we've got a nice 5-inch diagonal screen which is pretty roomy and it also has two other features I like in a fish finder, which the screen is both square and full color. The resolution is 480 x 480 pixels, which in fish finders is pretty decent for a screen of this size.
Now, the really cool part about the elite-5 HD is the HDI imaging which is where it gets its name from.
Key Features:
- Power Rating of 250W
- Depth View of 1,000 feet at 50 kHz
- 5-Inch, High-Resolution Color Display
- Wide-Angle 83 or 50 kHz Beam
- DownScan Overlay
- Split-Screen Capabilities
- Built-in GPS antenna
So What Is HDI?
HDI stands for Hybrid Dual Imaging and what this does is it uses the 3D sonar which is a really high-frequency beam that shows you a really clear picture, especially of the surrounding bed structure and also good coverage of submerged objects and so on.
It also boasts the traditional sonar as well, so this would be either 83 or 50 kilohertz, as well as the 200 killer HP and this sonar will show you arches and the traditional echoes that you are used to seeing. Combined this gives us an incredible piece of fish finding equipment in a nice five-inch package.
There is one really cool part about the elite 5, which is that it has just one transducer for all four frequencies, so there's no complicated installation it simply installs the same way as any other fish finder would.
This finder comes with a transom mount transducer out of the box and it mounts easily and is pretty compact. I have found the elite-5 HDI to be really easy to use and it is as simple as taking it out of the box, fitting it securely and you're good to go.
Check Amazon To View Current Pricing
What about GPS Capabilities?
The elite five HDI does have GPS capabilities, coming from its internal GPS antenna. The reading are pretty damn accurate readings and the basic maps pack that are available with the elite-5 contain around 3,000 US Lakes and 1,000 Coastal Areas, so plenty to get your hooks into!
If you wanted to, you can also expand with an SD card along with a bunch of other custom configurations available, where you can have the Navionics maps which are the king of maps.
The great thing about the new Lowrance Elite-5 HDI is that you can have the split screen viewing, which whilst this may get a little bit cramped on the 5-inch screen, it's still pretty decent and you can see the GPS data, the traditional sonar data and also see the down scan data all on one screen, side by side.
This helps to see exactly where you are and you can put all of this together for the highest probability of finding fish wherever you are.
So there are quite a few configurations available with the with the elite 5 HDI. We have the basic 50 kHz which has no charts, no transducer. There's another option with basic charts and an 83 kHz transducer, the difference between the 50 kHz and 83 kHz is that the 83 is more suited for shallow/fresh water and the 50 is suited for deeper/salt water.
So at 83 kHz, you should still be able to see down to about a thousand feet but only in freshwater. If you're fishing in saltwater you're better off going for the 50kHz model, although the 5200 is significantly more expensive, there's also the Navionics gold that comes with it, which is what I referred to earlier, which is the gold package which also comes with the same configurations as the base model plus some additional features, such as DownScan overlay.
DownScan Overlay
This is one of the coolest features about the elite-5 series, what DownScan overlay does is it combines the traditional sonar and the DownScan sonar onto one screen, so this won't be a split screen, it is all put together on the single screen view. It's basically a mash-up of both frequencies and with that, it's really easy to spot fish that are hiding under cover
To wrap up this review of the elite-5 HDI, it truly is one of my favorite fish finders on the market and if you're thinking about buying is, I can highly recommend that you go for it.
