BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Treat your car to a tune-up and get better gas mileage in return. According to the Car Care Council, even today's modern vehicles need a periodic tune-up and that can save big at the pump.
"Regular tune-ups are an investment that really pays off. A well-maintained vehicle is not only more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly, but performs better and is safer and more reliable," said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council.
The council recommends a 21st Century tune-up during which the fuel, emissions and ignition systems are checked, as well as the battery, charging and starting system, and the engine mechanical and powertrain control systems. Keeping a car properly tuned can improve gas mileage by an average of 4 percent.
In addition to performing a tune-up, keeping tires properly inflated improves gas mileage by 3 percent. A clean air filter can improve fuel efficiency by as much as 14 percent on older vehicles and also helps the environment, as do regular oil and oil filter changes. Air filters are usually inspected during an oil change, which should be performed regularly as recommended in the owner's manual. Tire pressure should be checked monthly.
White reminds motorists that many fluids and components replaced during vehicle service should be properly recycled or disposed of, including oil and oil filters, coolant, batteries, tires, and brake, transmission and power steering fluids.
To learn more about the benefits of a well-maintained vehicle, view the Car Care Council's 21st Century Tune-Up Car Care Minute video or visit www.carcare.org.

The reason it is only in Canada'a interest is that ii is very dirty oil and their intent to send it through the pipeline is to get access to World markets. Most of our refineries cannot use the stuff.
Hey Buddy...I read a post of yours and wanted to know ..how is the Keystone pipeline only in Canada's interest? No benefit to the US?
kpsr...It's cheaper to build a pipeline that feeds many refineries than to build a refinery. Then you still have to get it to the market.
Nice to meet you.
Police use cell phone tracking to find offending cell phone use in cars is NOT going to work! Cell signals require triangulation and they would have to know the phone #'s of the offending units/phones. A cop's cell phone is not going to track unknown units going up/down some hiway. I don't even think Hollywood has thought this one up, still up there with beam me up Scotty devices!
Congratulations on reaching 1,000,000 points! Great job!
Hi buddy, A happy holiday season to you and yours
They closed the refineries there are you sure your gas prices haven't risen yet?
You and everyone better get gassed up! Prices are going higher at the pump as I write this, as well as on the open markets, plus the holiday is coming. A triple whammy! Not to mention that Isaac is headed for the Gulf! Pass the word around!

China's state-run People's Daily newspaper is known for political correctness rather than a sense of humor.
So when a report surfaced this week that North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un had been named the 2012 "Sexiest Man Alive", the self-described mouthpiece of the Chinese Communist Party cheered its Korean comrade on its website -- only this "news" came from satirical U.S. website, The Onion.
China is North Korea's major ally and aid provider. Reporting something flattering on Kim must have been considered politically correct. Its website editors even built a gallery of photos to accompany the report, with slides featuring Kim riding a horse, inspecting troops and being hugged by female soldiers.
While the item spiced up the usually staid pages of the website, it led to wave of sniggering as international media lampooned Chinese state media for being fooled by a bogus report from a well-known purveyor of offbeat humor and satire.
Was the omniscient People's Daily really this gullible or was it the work of a mischievous insider with a penchant for satire?
On Wednesday, a woman who took our call at the website's office in Beijing insisted that it was "impossible that the People's Daily would quote from any unreliable media -- we do verify our news and sources."
The woman, who declined to identify herself, said the story and pictures had been removed a day after being posted.
But the damage had been done and The Onion was relishing the publicity.
"Please visit our friends at the People's Daily in China, a proud Communist subsidiary of The Onion," read its statement. "Exemplary reportage, comrades."
Chinese micro-bloggers couldn't resist getting in on the act too.
"The world was fooled by the People's Daily, because no Chinese believes this paper," wrote @Hai_Dao_Wu_Bian.
So the Chinese have a sense of humor?
Christopher Rea, who is writing a book on the cultural history of humor in modern China, says the Chinese have "a robust sense of the farcical and the absurd, as well as a keen appreciation of watching those in power screw up."
Rea, a scholar at the Australian Center on China in the World, says "the Chinese sense of humor runs the same gamut as elsewhere."
Linda Jaivin, a veteran China-watcher and co-author of "New Ghosts Old Dreams," a book on Chinese literature and culture, said Beijing people's sense of humor tends to be "very topical, political and satirical."
When a giant statue of Confucius suddenly appeared in Tiananmen Square, not far from Mao's iconic portrait early last year, tongues wagged about what it all signified politically -- was Confucius back to dislodge Mao as China's spiritual leader?
The statue was moved off the square just as abruptly a few weeks later, prompting some in political circles to joke that the venerated sage, who hailed from rural Shandong, had been busted for not having a Beijing residence permit.
For centuries political satire has been a staple for much of Chinese humor, and remains so during the Communist era.
In the 1980s, when the first signs of official corruption related to economic reform began appearing, humorists cleverly minted ditties like these:
"I'm a big official, so I eat and drink, eat and drink..."

It's Halloween!! There's so much to love about this time of year. The weather has turned cool and the leaves are changing and it's almost perfect outside. I love seeing all of the little trick-or-treaters in their best scary (or not-so-scary) costumes walking around and begging for free candy. Heck, I still walk around the office begging for free candy (just not in a costume).
I'm a fan of scary movies, too. I've seen them all. The Exorcist, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Evil Dead 2, Friday the 13th, Psycho, Carrie, Paranormal Activity. They're far more fun to me than scary and it's definitely better to watch them now than any other time of year. There's not a lot that scares me these days (after all, I was married once). But there IS something from my childhood that not only scared the bejeezus out of me then, it still gives me the creeps today. You might want to sit down for this one because you're not going to believe it.
Stop laughing!! I'm serious!! In case you didn't know, the music video for Thriller came out in December 1983 to much fanfare. It was an epic 13-minute video that was more like a movie and it changed the way music videos were made forever. It's pretty much regarded as the greatest music video of all-time. It's been 30-years since I last watched it, so I'll do my best here to summarize it for those who might not have seen it. Michael Jackson is walking in the woods with his girlfriend and he turns into a werewolf, or something. Turns out it wasn't for real, but in a movie they were watching in a theater. His girlfriend runs out and he goes after her. They end up arguing whether or not she was scared and then the song starts. The video then features graveyards, dancing zombies and a chilling Vincent Price narration. I was 6-years old when the video came out and was with my parents at my uncle's house the first time I saw it. The werewolf, the dancing zombies, the undead rising from the grave…none of this scared me. What got me was the end. Zombie MJ and the rest of his crew are about to get the girl at the end when she wakes up and realizes it was all just a bad dream. Michael is there to comfort her and offers to take her home. As they're walking out of the house, Michael turns back with this evil smile and yellow eyes. The camera freezes on it as Vincent Price's maniacal laugh closes out the video. What follows is an absolute, 100% true story. I screamed and cried louder than I had ever screamed and cried before. Something about those eyes and that laugh freaked me out and I lost it. I ran over to my Mom and jumped in her lap, tears streaming down my face as my Dad just laughed at me. The crazy part is that I am now 36-years old and not only have I never watched that video again, I can't even listen to the song. If it comes on the radio or on TV, I immediately change it. I can't listen to the duet with Paul McCartney that was on that record because I know that Thriller was the next song on the record. I couldn't even look up pictures for the video to include in my blog. Crazy? Ridiculous? Yeah…maybe just a little. Anyway, nothing before or since has ever scared me that bad and I'm not sure it ever will. Is there anything that scared you that bad? Message me on Facebook (http://facebook.com/jumpinjack1037) or email me at email@example.com and let me know. Hoppy Halloween!
The Florida Georgia Line concert went on-sale weeks ago, yet people are STILL buzzing about it and I can't help but get excited too. I don't know what it is that makes me romanticize going to concerts and everything about it. For me, it's an experience like no other. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. Never have. Music and concerts have always given me a high that could never be matched. I remember being a kid and listening to old 45s with my Mom all the time. She had the coolest record collection, too. Everyone from The Beatles to Kenny Rogers to The Eagles to Crystal Gayle to Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. We'd sit on the floor with her record collection spread out everywhere and sing along for hours. It's one of my most favorite memories growing up.
I must have asked a thousand questions about the artists, the lyrics, the album cover art…and she answered every single one of them. I got to hear stories about all the great concerts she went to when she was younger. I remember looking at old Polaroids she took at a Moody Blues concert where she was right up front. So close she could touch the band members. I think this was where my concert obsession started. I was crushed the couple times she went to WGAR's Country Fest and didn't take me because I was too little. Starting at around age 3, I would put on these little concerts for my family. Mom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa (and sometimes Uncle Dave!) would be in attendance as I ran through the 1979 hit "Gold" by folk/alt country singer John Stewart, then followed it up with an encore of "Jesus Is Just Alright" by the Doobie Brothers while strumming my plastic Mickey Mouse guitar (which I later upgraded to a Dukes of Hazzard guitar).
The first real band I ever got to see play live was in 1992. First, let me clarify something. When I say "real" band, I don't mean my Mom's buddies in The Cleveland Beat that played in bars and at the County Fair. I'm talking the Oak Ridge Boys. It was during that year's Presidential campaign. George H.W. Bush had a public rally on October 28th. Bruce Willis and the Oak Ridge Boys were there. My high school marching band was one of several that were invited to play as well and I got to see the Oak Ridge Boys perform a couple of songs. Not an actual concert, but it was still a pretty cool experience. My first real concert was July 18th, 1995. Van Halen came to Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, OH with Skid Row and Our Lady Peace. I was absolutely blown away. The power and energy. The drums and bass thumping in my chest. The roar of the crowd and the sight of 20,000+ with their fists in the air singing along with every single word. To that point, it was the most amazing thing I had ever experienced and I wanted more. I became a concert-going junkie. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that I've seen hundreds of shows in many different cities and states (and Canada!) and made many priceless memories. I've waited in line at 5am for tickets to go on-sale. I've gone to shows by myself, knowing that I'd run into 1 or 12 friends before the end of the night. The lights would go out and I'd hit the crowd and just get lost until the lights came back up again.
I finally got to see a concert with my Mom! Billy Joel and Elton John's Face to Face tour came to Cleveland on April 15, 2003. The joy on her face that night took me right back to the living room floor with all of her records. I think that might be my favorite all-time concert. The farthest I've ever traveled for a show was to see Pearl Jam in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The date was September 11th, 2005 and I skipped out on my 10-year high school reunion to go.
The best seat I've ever had was for Sammy Hagar in Columbus, OH on June 25th, 2006. I was ON THE STAGE. It was the most I've ever paid for a ticket and it was worth every penny.
It's been a few years since I actively attended concerts. I've mellowed out a bit in my old age, but I do miss it sometimes. Thankfully, my job has given me a chance to make some cool new memories. Being a lifelong radio fan and now a DJ, finally experiencing the Grand Ole Opry was something I'd dreamed about for a long time. It's the show that made Country Music famous! I got to take my girlfriend for her first Opry show on her birthday this year and it made me happy to see her smile. Old Crow Medicine Show absolutely tore the house down.
Last weekend, I also got to take my son to his first concert when we went to the Big O Music Fest in Owensboro. Parking and walking through the field at Reid's Orchard to the front gate reminded me of my first long walk to the front gate at Blossom almost 20 years ago. It was kinda like coming full circle, I suppose.
So…yeah, I'm excited for FGL on October 10th!! I hope you are too and I hope you're able to make some memories like I've been lucky enough to do over the years. Heck, we'll be making them together that night, won't we? I may even get lost in the crowd one more time.
Froggyland is absolutely buzzing since the big announcement that Florida Georgia Line is coming to the CFSB Center on October 10th. In the days leading up to the announcement, Davey Croakett and I were talking about the show and the opening acts, Colt Ford and Dallas Smith. It went something like this: DC: "Hey, did you hear who the openers are for the show?" Me: "I heard Colt Ford. Who's the other?" DC: "Dallas Smith." Me: "Um…who's Dallas Smith?" DC: "Let's learn together!" Davey searches Google and the second I saw his picture, I freaked. Me: "Wait…THAT DALLAS SMITH?!" DC: "Huh?" Me: "THE GUY FROM DEFAULT?!" DC: "Surely, that can't be the same Dallas Smith." After a little detective work, we realized that it was indeed the same Dallas Smith. ANYWAY...Before becoming a Canadian Country sensation, Dallas Smith was the singer for the rock band Default. The band released their debut record The Fallout in 2001 (which quickly sold over a million copies) and their first single off the record was "Wasting My Time". In the summer of 2001, for about 2 months, this was the greatest song ever recorded. I loved that song. I'm serious. I wore that CD out. In August of 2002, I got to see Default play live at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in beautiful Cleveland, OH. From 2001 to 2002, MTV would film weekly concerts in the summer at the Rock Hall and play them on TV. Tickets were only $5 and they had some pretty epic shows there. It was awesome. Rock bands, pop singers, R&B artists…it seemed like they brought everyone to town and I think I went to almost every single one of them. ANYWAY, Default absolutely tore the house down which you'll see in the clip below. (1,000,000 bonus internets to anyone who can spot a young Jumpin' Jack in the crowd) As I sit here typing away, I'm listening to that record and I feel like I'm 25 years old again. It serves as a reminder of a great time in my life and will always hold a special place in my heart. You can check Dallas Smith and his music out here at his website. Time will tell as to what his legacy as a country artist will be. All I know is that, while I'm stoked to see FGL and Colt Ford on October 10th, I'll be geeking out when Dallas hits the stage to kick off the show. And Dallas, if you're reading this, October 10th will be a #ThrowbackThursday. So if you don't mind, please play "Wasting My Time" when you finish your set. The kid in the back with the yellow Froggy shirt sure would appreciate it.
With the release of Man of Steel just days away, I thought it'd be appropriate to blog today about Superman and what he means to me. Regular listeners of the show and Facebook friends know that I am a HUGE geek and am completely unapologetic for it. Comics, superheroes…I never grew out of that phase. I was always a fan of Spidey, the Hulk, Batman and others.
The new Hardee's/MoS commercial is one of my favorites right now
But, it was the Last Son of Krypton that really captured my imagination. Here was a guy that was everything I wanted to be as a kid; tall, handsome, virtuous, with super speed and strength. He could fly and bend steel and he was bulletproof. You couldn't really hurt him.
Coming from a broken home as a child, it was that last one that really stuck with me. You couldn't hurt him and he always beat the bad guys. Man…if I could be Superman, I'd never have to hurt again. Cartoons and comics were a vehicle for escape that I still kinda use to this day.
Yep...that's me!
The very first time I saw a real-life Superman was with Christopher Reeve's iconic portrayal in the 1978 movie. I was only about 3 when I saw it and I was captivated. In fact, I was so emotionally invested that in the scene where Lois Lane falls from the helicopter, I actually dove off my couch to try to save her!! I'm pretty sure that when my Mom was alive, she told that story to every girl I ever dated.
Superman: "Easy, miss. I've got you." Lois Lane: "You...you've got me?! Who's got you?!"
I'll never forget the way that movie made me feel and, as an adult, that's the way I look at superhero movies. I don't care about how it matches the comic or how they changed the outfit or anything like that. I just want to get lost for a little while. I want them to make me feel like a kid again.
"I totally tried to save you this one time..."
Compiling and reading the news everyday, I see all kinds of death, destruction and all-around bad news. This is exactly why it's the perfect time to be reintroduced to the Man of Steel. Clearly, the world still needs a Superman. He may not always be the coolest or the edgiest. He may not be snarky and witty or an anti-hero. I'm okay with that. He's still MY hero and "truth, justice & the American way" will never go out of style.
Now, if only I could find some adult-sized Superman footie pajamas… "…on my soul, I swear that until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice are the reality we all share, I'll never stop fighting. Ever." - Superman
Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of attending the 3rd Annual Hickman County Spring Chicken Fest in Clinton, KY. It was my first year going and I was REALLY excited after hearing how much fun Windy Waters had the last 2 years out there. The poster says it's, "A Feather Rufflin' Good Time," and I was ready for it!
When Windy was there last year she competed (and did really well) in the Chicken Dance Contest. Given my past as a professional Chicken Dancer, I knew I could do at least as well as she did. Maybe even a little better. I embarked on an intense 3-week training regimen to get ready and felt I was well prepared. More on that later.
We made the hour long trek to Clinton and I was pretty nervous. It rained cats and dogs pretty much the whole drive there. I was afraid we'd get there only to find out the event had been rained out. Much to my relief, things were going forward as scheduled when we got there and we got right to setting up. Something pretty incredible happened after we got our tent up. Mr. Froggy was a little upset about all the rain and decided to do something about it. He chicken danced. This was no ordinary chicken dance, though. It stopped raining as soon as he was done. Seriously. It didn't rain a single drop the rest of the time we were out there. I don't know if there was something mystical about the way he did it and I wasn't about to dwell on it. It was time to have some fun!
And a fun time we had. Considering the weather, there was a great amount of people there checking out the booths of arts & crafts, the games for kids and the chicken. Oof. There were food vendors cooking a million kinds of chicken and it smelled sooooooo good. It was pretty yummy, too! It was hard not to spend all of my money on all that tasty chicken.
Shortly before noon, they held the first of many events that day: the kids chicken clucking contest! Willie Cluckin' Nelson kicked off the contest and the kids had a pretty good time. After that, I started warming up for the Chicken Dance contest. I double-knotted my Adidas and got my "wings" a flappin'. My confidence was at an all-time high. Little did I know, I was about to come crashing back down to earth.
I was approached by a representative of the southeast division of the APCD (Association of Professional Chicken Dancers). She proceeded to tell me that I had been disqualified from that afternoon's competition and had been suspended indefinitely. I know what you're thinking. "What? This is a travesty of justice!" Well, in the spirit of "National Honesty Day," I have to come clean and say that I got busted for cheating. Yep. Banned substances. Whilst in the middle of my training regimen I realized that I'm no spring chicken and my days of competitive chicken dancing were long behind me. That, combined with the pressure of trying to compete with Windy Waters, led me to use PEDs. You know: Performance Enhancing Drumsticks. I was also caught with pine tar under my wings…er…arms for a more smooth flap. I'd like to extend my sincerest apologies to my fans, my family and the APCD for my actions. Still, a good time was had by all and I hope to be invited back next year too! (*Okay…being that this is "85% of a true story," it's clear that part of this story is made up. I'd like to set the record straight on that now. I wore Asics that day, not Adidas.)

TAG Fit System
Bell's next-generation Twin Axis Gear™ (TAG) fit system adjusts to the head on two axes—circumferentially as standard fit systems do, but also horizontally to better accommodate differences in the up/down position of the occipital lobe.
StreamJet Ventilation
Exclusively for the Volt, Bell engineers created an airflow matrix that mixes the deeply sculpted Channeled Ventilation ducts with specially designed constriction channels that use the Venturi Effect to increase airflow rates.
X-Static Padding
Woven with real silver fibers, X-Static™ Padding is a quick-drying material that inhibits growth of odor-causing bacteria and fungi while keeping you cooler than standard comfort pads.
All I can say is that this is a very very nice helmet. My first mountain bike helmet was the Bell Sweep. When I built up my new bike, I bought a new helmet to go with it, the Bell Volt. When I picked it out in the store, first of all I got it on sale, I would not have ever ever paid that much for the helmet, but there was something about it that made me get it. It was so comfortable, unlike the sweep where your hair would stick out the top of it, with this helmet that did not happen. The design was crisper then the sweep, it looked cooler. It is a tad bit heavier than the sweep, at least I think so. Just last weekend, I was group riding for the first time, and I was going really fast through some trees. One of them hit my shoulder and threw me off my bike at full force. The way that this helmet is engineered is unbelievable, it is so strong, it is ridiculous. It cracked in 6 different places but the helmet was still intact. It was amazing how well the helmet withstood the impact, simply amazing! I am for sure going to get another one, and maybe the store manager will sell me the new one for what I paid for the old one, $115.
I'm a female mtb and roady with a 'feminine' sized head - yes, it's small. But the Volt doesn't look ridiculously oversized on my pin-head. Priced well for a great fit and look - so much that I've got one for the road and one for the mtb. Will certainly be going back for another Volt when the time comes.
I was on a downhill coming around a small turn and hit a pothole. I lost control and went right over the bike. The first thing that hit the pavement was my head. It was a full impact hit to the right center front of my skull. There is no doubt in my mind that I would have been in the hospital or worse had I not been wearing a helmet. Other than a lot of road rash, stiff neck and shoulders I was able to finish my ride. I immediately went down to my bike shop and got another one. Took it home and stared at it in amazement. It could have been so much worse.
Fit is great, looks great, does it's job.
As soon as I tried it on I immediately bought it. Lightest,most comfortable helmet I've ever worn. Last Wednesday I had a run-in with a large SUV and ended up in a pile in the middle of the intersection. I landed on the side of my head and shoulder when I hit. The helmet is cracked up the side and scraped up pretty bad. I'm just glad that damage is on the helmet and not my head. I'll be going to pick up a replacement tomorrow... maybe I'll see if they sell them in neon yellow. :)
This helmet is very nice:))

Cymbalta official FDA information
Cymbalta is a drug that falls under the antidepressant group of drugs. This drug affects both norepinephrine and serotonin, the two very important substances found in the brain. Also called as Duloxetine, Cymbalta is referred to as a fast-response antidepressant that can also handle other symptoms such as anxiety, urinary incontinence, and chronic pain. As a matter of fact, this drug is also prescribed to patients suffering from fibromyalgia.
As an antidepressant, Cymbalta requires three to six weeks of continued intake for its notable effects to be observed. And after taking the drug for a certain period of time, many patients claim that they can better deal with pain, stress, and anxiety because of it. Some even say that they have developed their personalities for the better with the help of the drug.
Cymbalta works by enhancing the transmission of certain brain substances such as norepinephrine and serotonin. These neurotransmitters are known to help relieve depression. Norepinephrine reduces pain while serotonin handles anxiety. Doctors usually recommend either a once-a-day to twice-a-day dosage of Cymbalta. The drug is available in three dosages, the 20 mg, 30 mg, and 60 mg tablets. The patient's actual dosage will depend on his doctor. Patients who get nauseous after taking the drug could take it with meals.
Doctors usually recommend Cymbalta to patients to correct his current depression symptoms. However, many physicians also allow the drug to act as a patient's maintenance medicine. However, when used for maintenance, it is very important that patients strictly adhere to their doctor's orders so that he won't get addicted to the substance. Withdrawal symptoms should be considered very well too, when dosage reduction is considered. The side effects of this drug include lethargy, nausea, dizziness, sensory changes, blurred vision, vivid dreams, anxiety, and headache.

Please use the archive in post #99 to download.
As I posted in XP x64 the late note applies to x86 as well. Decision to install is up to you and will give us an idea if the detection is correct.
Hopefully if all is correct this release will be moved to the main list replacing the current one listed (am not updating that one this month)

Started AutoPatcher > blue dot in Windows XP x64 & 2003 x64 > clicked + and found only ... - Critical Updates also blue dot > expanded > two items black:
Cumulative ... IE ...XP x64 (KB2761465)
Cumulative ... IE7 ... XP x64 (KB2761465)
I don't think these two apply - I am running IE 8 here so I would guess that the APM must be edited to point to an appropriate verion of Internet Explorer for the two Cumulative Security Updates.
Note: Had empty item: Microsoft Windows - Recommended Updates (no + to left of label).
XP Pro w/SP3 > downloaded test batch file > unzipped and ran > downloaded updates.
AutoPatcher > blue dot Windows XP x86 > clicked + > blue dot ... - Critical updates > one black item: Update for Root ... (KB931125) > check mark in box > selected Next > Finished > restarted AutoPatcher > same item still black.
DO not know why this item indicates not installed.
Also, empty item Microsoft Windows - Recommended updates - No submenu of items.

Please check the apms :
KB2761465-x64-ENU.apm ..check for the following entry and same for KB2761465-x64-IE7-ENU.apm
The empty item is due to the parent apm still resident in the modules folder....this is left in place as for those who have multiple OS's in their APUP/AP.
As for KB931125 -- Update for root certificates....am still looking into the problem
UPDATE : found a solution to the problem with KB931125 and uploaded to dropbox...PLEASE TRY IT AGAIN !!!!

Try again and all should be good.
As to your post with line through your text have no idea.....appears you may have hit the strike through button, have corrected it for you DJ.
The Root Certificate update (KB931125) was placed back in the Windows_Critical as the this update is for all Operating Systems...refer to post# 103.
Have sent an email to dkdk_it on the subject as I believe this update should be moved to the Common Modules release.
I this is the case then another apm will need to be written as the registry location is different for the x64 edition of XP and I'm not able to verify file detection for the x64 editions of Vista, Win 7 or Win 8.
For those using Windows XP x64 registry detection of this update can be found at :
HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{EF289A85-8E57-408d-BE47-73B55609861A}

Smooth download bars instead of blocks.
MD5 check progress(so you know its not frozen before downloading)
Always log, /log switch useless
Calls sweeper to clean stray files.
Option: Release.list URL. <--- so you can point to releases2.list or WAC's DB release.list instead of running a batch file.
Option: Default button so you can reset stuff in option(like the url).

St. Croix Trading Matador Leather Chindi Green Rug
Item #: 332LCD20-P Add to Wishlist
$37 - $378 + FREE SHIPPINGDescription: Durable as they are striking in design, the Matador Collection of Leather rugs are meticulously made by hand-weaving leather strips as the weft of the rug and a fine cotton strand as the warp, resulting in a beautiful, rustic texture and interesting natural braided pattern. Add the smell and feel of real leather to any room with this purple hand woven leather rug. Made of soft leather interwoven with a cotton foundation, this rugged rug makes sense ecologically, aesthetically, and economically. Hand made in villages of North Central India, this leather rug has shades of purple throughout the rug. An elegant complement to any decor, this leather rug is completely reversible and extremely durable.
- Collection: Matador
- Brand: St. Croix Trading
- Material: 100% Leather
- Weave: Hand Loomed
- Styles: Contemporary Rugs Casual Rugs Solid & Striped Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 4' x 6', 2' 6" x 12', 5' x 8' and 8' x 10'
I ordered the light gray / white version of this rug, and when it arrived, I was disappointed with how scratchy the rug is. It's made with strips of leather, but the leather isn't soft. It doesn't feel like an indoor rug, it feels and looks more like an outdoor rug. So instead of using it in the baby's nursery as I had planned, I'm going to use it out in our converted garage. The colors of the rug are ok, but in the picture it looked like it had an ombre affect, but in person it doesn't at all.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Love this rug and it's the same color as the pic. Shipping was fast. Looking forward to another purchase.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This is the third chindi rug I've purchased. Love the leather, love the natural look to them. I plan to purchase even more in the future. They look fantastic on hardwood floors!
Spectacular. Beautiful Rugs. High Quality. Can't beat it. Big conversation piece. Wont buy rugs anywhere else/
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Just got it yesterday. The colors are fabulous and it is a good price for the quality. I just am a bit confused as to how to clean a leather rug.....
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Fill out the information below.

Go to any potluck or party and if there is a Crock Pot of meatballs sitting out, you will usually find a group of folks standing around eating them as they talk. They draw us into their meaty goodness. I won't name any names, but I've known a couple of vegetarians who have snuck in a meatball when no one was looking...
Okay, I may be overly fantasizing a bit but the 1950's were a turning point in food
and entertaining in this country.
However, a few years ago, I went to a party and the host made it with BBQ sauce and I was hooked! The BBQ sauce give these meatballs just a little more oomph.
And speaking of BBQ sauce, I did a small informal poll on Facebook a couple of weeks ago.
I asked everyone what their favorite bottled BBQ sauce was.
I promise, you don't taste the grape at all. It just adds a nice, lightly sweet background flavor and gives a nice consistency to the sauce. Also, I've tried making this before using meatballs I made from scratch. Do yourself a favor, just go with the prepackaged ones.
They really hold up better and don't fall apart as easy as the homemade ones do.
completely cooked through (stirring occasionally).
Everyone is going to love these!
I go with the store brand whenever I can. These work great! |

Like many big cities in America, Atlanta is surrounded by a circular highway that connects with various freeway arteries that go through the downtown area. Weekday mornings and early evenings, no matter which highway you're on, or what direction you're going, you'll likely end up stuck in some hot traffic hell.
Dana Jones, 26, used to drive from the south end of the city by the airport to a northern suburb at peak commuting times, right through the daily mess.
"There were so many people out," Jones says. "You get road rage because nobody will let you in; nobody will merge right. It's just aggravating."
Despite the perils of a long commute, most people in the United States drive to work, according to the American Community Survey. In fact, more than 75 percent of Americans make the trek to work alone.
The stress of waiting in gridlock can get intense if you're in a hurry, leaving you feeling frustrated and anxious about the traffic. That stress can translate into deeper health hazards. Try to distract yourself with your smartphone, and you can put yourself and other drivers in even more danger.
Road rage: An 'emotional spin cycle'
LeeAnne Minnick was sitting in gridlocked traffic, waiting to get on an on-ramp, in a line of cars that had pulled over to let an ambulance pass. Suddenly, another driver darted out behind Minnick to tail the ambulance, taking advantage of the cars that had been moved, to enter the freeway.
"That incensed me," says Minnick, who makes a lengthy commute from Athens, Ga., to Atlanta -- about a 70-mile trip -- three days a week. "I immediately flew into a rage over it."
That happened a couple months ago, and Minnick still sounds irritated when she describes it. She doesn't act aggressively toward other drivers, but she does get bothered by disrespectful behavior on the road.
It's easy to get lost in a cycle of emotions where you're talking to yourself and ruminating about traffic situations, says Leon James, professor of psychology at the University of Hawaii and co-author of "Road Rage and Aggressive Driving."
"Impatience, if you don't handle it at the beginning, tends to turn into resentment and anger," James says.
The back seat of the car is what James calls the "road rage nursery." It's where kids hear their parents cursing out other drivers and expressing their disbelief about everyone else's poor skills on the road. Children learn the culture of aggressive driving in this way, he says.
"We use it as an opportunity to disrespect everything and say bad words that we would be shocked to say in any other place."
Another problem is that after a bad commute, people tend not to let it go, James says. They walk into the office and complain about their experiences, which leads to entire conversations about bad traffic and bad drivers. This venting may feel good in the moment, but it reinforces the emotions for the next driving trip, he says.
James' solution: Monitor your traffic emotions. You might try keeping a diary of how you feel every day after your commute, or just keep a mental note about your state of mind. What are your negative thoughts while on the road? Are they justified?
Confronting your internal dialogue about commuting frustrations may help. You may realize that your negative thoughts may not be proportional to the offenses you perceive from other drivers.
James recommends asking yourself: "Am I the kind of person who thinks these things about people?" and "Is this the kind of person I want to be?"
Stress: When driving kills slowly
Traffic situations may trigger in us primal instincts that evolved in humans to promote survival, so that we can protect ourselves against threats, experts say.
The "aggressive, combative, competitive frame for driving" may be linked to our evolutionary past, but it could have implications for cardiovascular disease, says David Strayer, a psychology professor at the University of Utah.
In one experiment, Strayer and colleagues ran a simulation where people drove under the assumption that they were late to a meeting, and there was a financial incentive to get there before other people. One group drove in high-density traffic, another had an easier traffic environment. Some people were told there was a time limit.
Men more then women got into aggressive driving mode, showing an elevated blood pressure when under pressure to weave their way through heavy traffic. In general, both men and women who adopt an aggressive driving persona seem to show this, Strayer says.
"In the simulator studies we've done, they'll actually start driving by cars and flipping them off and honking at them," Strayer says. "That's just a computer, a computer rendition!"
Long-term stress increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, he says. Research on the precise level of cardiovascular risk is limited, but recent data doesn't paint a flattering picture for the vehicular commuter.
A 2012 study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine found that the farther people commute by vehicle, the higher their blood pressure and body mass index is likely to be. Also, the farther the commute, the less physical activity the person was likely to get.

Media Mention U.S. Supreme Court rules credit repair firms can force arbitration By Jim Puzzanghera Los Angeles Times January 11, 2012 Paul F. Kirgis, a law professor at St. John's University in New York, said the court's decision was expected given its past rulings on arbitration. Tuesday's ruling strengthens a legal shield for companies against class-action suits.
"For an individual consumer, going to a state Small Claims Court is not really a more palatable option than arbitration in most cases," Kirgis said.
"The real risk," he said, "is that companies will engage in small-scale frauds committed against large numbers of people without the fear of class-action as a deterrent."

When you have very infrequent visible outbreaks of genital herpes like you're having, there is no right or wrong answer. Here are some facts that can help you decide whether you want to take Valtrex (valacyclovir), acyclovir or famciclovir daily.
Antiviral drugs for herpes stop the virus from multiplying. This decreases the frequency of outbreaks when taken daily. However, the drugs do not cure the infection. When you stop taking the antiviral drug, the virus usually becomes active again.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention encourages people with six or more outbreaks per year to consider suppressive therapy. This helps with personal comfort. And it decreases the risk of spreading herpes to a sexual partner. With frequent attacks, viral shedding and the risk of transmission is high, both during and between outbreaks.
For a person with only one or two attacks per year, these outbreaks can be treated intermittently with Valtrex at the first sign of symptoms. However, there is still the risk of spreading herpes between episodes. The amount of viral shedding and the risk of transmission to a partner vary from one person to the next. There is no reliable way to measure viral shedding.
If you have a single sexual partner and he or she has no history of genital herpes, you can expect to decrease the risk of transmitting the virus by taking valacyclovir 500 mg daily. In addition, male condoms should always be used. Also, avoid sexual activity during an outbreak.

Red Hat Deltacloud Aspires to Become an Industry Standard
Company moves Deltacloud to Apache Incubator.
Yesterday Red Hat hosted a virtual press conference titled "The Evolution of Cloud Foundations." The press conference served to outline Red Hat's plans for the future of their cloud services and JBoss, but the big announcement was that the company would be open sourcing all of its cloud APIs.
During his portion of the presentation, Red Hat cloud product manager Bryan Che explained that third-party governance was necessary to achieve true interoperability and portability.
"We do not want Deltacloud to be under the control of any one particular vendor," Che said during his portion of the conference.
Red Hat has released the Deltacloud code to the Apache Incubator, in hopes of encouraging third-party contributions. The company also launched APIWanted.org, which allows visitors to suggest new features and additional APIs.
Red Hat is hoping that the above actions will influence the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) to make Deltacloud the official industry standard for moving workloads from one Infrastructure-as-a-Service provider to another. Currently, DMTF oversees CDM, DASH, and OVF.

How do these compare to SIGG water bottles?
Those lids are kinda funny looking...I'm not sure if I trust them.
NightGhost wrote:Product Website
The video on their site doesn't work.
The video review doesn't work. Are these things worth it?
"The Eco Canteen can now be found in Wal-Mart, CVS and other fine stores." LOL!
If these can't be cleaned easily, you could do what I do with my water bottles: fill with hot water and throw in a denture cleaning tablet or two.
I don't have this Eco-Canteen, but I have a stainless steel bottle and it works really well to fill it with water and put it in the fridge, especially because stainless steel is a great conductor of hot and cold temperatures.
The only problem I see is they don't seem to have caps for the spouts. The more fastidious among us need those to keep cooties off the part we sip from. My Kleen Kanteen has a cap. It's also more than twice as expensive. Good deal, though, for a (presumably) Chinese water bottle...
Pretty useless website... the video is a broken youtube video, and it doesn't look like it has any other links to go to for specs, ordering, etc. I'd at least like to know how tall it is...
You Tube review
These are fantastic!! And at this price they're an incredible steel! (Get it? But really, they are...) I'm in for 6. otterific Woot, guys!
May I presume that this "canteen" is not double-walled so as to provide optimum insulation for hot or cold beverages?...
be weary folks... http://www.thegreenestdollar.com/2009/02/eco-canteen-product-review/ I love my kleenkanteen (yes it was $16 for one, but none of what you will read in the link)
does anyone know if this can be used for hot drinks, such as hot tea or coffee? are there any plastic pieces that will melt or something?
Will these fit in a standard bike water bottle cage?
Almost jumped on this... but http://goo.gl/oP8o i do not like those reviews.
If you have an Aluminum water bottle (especially SIGG) please consider switching over to Stainless Steel. They are healthier for you. This is a great price even for just one bottle! However, if you are looking for quality (as I have heard these are a bit iffy) I would look into Klean Kanteen.
heh how about this news article. probably explains the video not working on the website.
In for 2, I figure they're usually about $5 each any how. Thanks for the denture cleaning tablets to clean water bottles, never would have thought of that!
allenallen wrote:does anyone know if this can be used for hot drinks, such as hot tea or coffee? are there any plastic pieces that will melt or something?
It's fully stainless steel besides the lid. I almost think you could boil something in this.

"hot and cold temperatures" ha ha ha! keep up the good work.
i am tempted cause i like the carabiner
In for 6-I think they'll be good stocking stuffers.
Is this double-walled? I have a stainless steel water bottle that isn't, and it can't keep anything cold.
When it says "Stainless Steel" does that mean inside AND outside? It would be bad if it was aluminum inside.
Shanebob wrote:Those lids are kinda funny looking...I'm not sure if I trust them.
You really should decided weather or not to trust based on something other than looks. ;) Those are well-designed "lids" as you call them. Actually they are "caps."
In for 6 Thanks woot for figuring out how to continue feeding my addiction.. 8-)
I would like to ask for some clarification on one of the EcoCanteen "myths": "Use of EcoCanteen will have no effect on the size of a male user's testicles." What, exactly, does this mean?...
Is it a thermos? Nope, a steel water bottle? Yep. Most of the complaints that I saw about this thing stem from the website and wacky shipping charges that annoyed people. Woot takes care of that problem easily. In for 4 myself.
UFGatorHawk wrote:How do these compare to SIGG water bottles?
These are stainless steel and SIGGs are aluminum. I have one of each, and the SIGG seems thicker because of the lining (thus more sturdy), although using stainless steel has its benefits. For one, it doesn't have to have a lining to prevent potentially dangerous aluminum-leaching. Here's a website that sums up some of the differences: http://www.mindfuleats.com/mindfuleats/2009/02/water-bottles.html Although, after reading the link posted by branflake12 I'm not sure I want to support this company with an additional purchase.
Apparently the back-history of this product has been pretty shady. Just do a Google search. http://www.thegreenestdollar.com/2009/02/eco-canteen-product-review/

Thanks for the useful link! I put my credit card back in my wallet after checking out those product reviews.
I for a total of 6. I think they'll be great to take fly fishing!! Bought 2 aluminum ones at Wal-mart on clearance for $5 each, didn't have spout or carabiner.
The manufacturer seems to engage in some shady business. See user reviews of this product at http://www.greenoptions.com/products/product-eco-canteen/reviews.
the cocmpany looks to have some shady business practices. Of course, we're buying through Woot here, but I'm out based on principle. Just like how many people are shying away from Sigg.. for the principle of their business practices. http://www.consumeraffairs.com/online/ecocanteen.html
wootasourous wrote:It's fully stainless steel besides the lid. I almost think you could boil something in this.
You can boil something in this, but I would imagine the outside would be hot to the touch
I am concerned about the many negative comments on the web about the manufacturer and refuse to buy products when customers are not treated in a professional manner. Are these stainless steel bottles made in China?

This sweater is awesome! For someone else. You know that saying "just because they make it in your size doesn't mean you should wear it"? Well that applies here. I'm a petite but busty gal and this sweater only adds more bulk to wear I needed it least. It's a great quality product and as everyone has mentioned, much better looking in person. Just not for me.
December 20, 2012
Liked It
I bought the XS and it fits great. The S would have been too big. The sweater is warm if you wear it on top of the white long sleeve perfect tee. I am really happy I purchased it. I don't like acrylic, but it seems like almost all of the Limited sweaters have this material. I would not be able to wear it without a shirt underneath because the fabric is kind of scratchy.
December 7, 2012
def a cropped sweater...i am only 5ft tall, so i did not think this would be that cropped on me...but it is kinda short, so if you are super tall, you may not like it how short it is...but i like it overall...i just wear it wiht a cute tank top underneath
November 30, 2012
Love the feel and fit
When I say this sweater on the web I was not sure of the feel or the fit, since I am picky with what I wear. I was hesitant to buy it online, but I was not disappointed. Looks nice with a pair of dress pants and or jeans…
November 29, 2012
Love it!
This is a must have sweater! It's so much cuter in person.
November 28, 2012
We bought this for a 0/2 petite friend. It's perfect on her but is also perfect on someone taller as a layering piece. There is substance to it but it doesn't seem itchy, hot, or overdone,
It's a nice staple.
November 27, 2012
couldn't resist
i love winter white, and since this sweater can be layered, i thought this sweater could be so versatile. i couldn't resist it because i thought i would be able to get more use out of my long sleeve summer/ spring blouses to wear underneath it.
November 24, 2012
This sweater is very comfortable and looks great with jeans or dress slacks. You definitely have to have a shirt to wear under the sweater, but I found lots of options in the store.

Garden City, Kan., missed out on the suburban building boom of the postwar years. What it got instead were sprawling subdivisions of cattle. These feedlots -- the nation's first -- began rising on the high plains of western Kansas in the 50's, and by now developments catering to cows are far more common here than developments catering to people.
You'll be speeding down one of Finney County's ramrod roads when the empty, dun-colored prairie suddenly turns black and geometric, an urban grid of steel-fenced rectangles as far as the eye can see -- which in Kansas is really far. I say ''suddenly,'' but in fact a swiftly intensifying odor (an aroma whose Proustian echoes are more bus-station-men's-room than cow-in-the-country) heralds the approach of a feedlot for more than a mile. Then it's upon you: Poky Feeders, population 37,000. Cattle pens stretch to the horizon, each one home to 150 animals standing dully or lying around in a grayish mud that it eventually dawns on you isn't mud at all. The pens line a network of unpaved roads that loop around vast waste lagoons on their way to the feedlot's beating heart: a chugging, silvery feed mill that soars like an industrial cathedral over this teeming metropolis of meat.

Rather than spending Christmas Day posting cryptic tweets and Instagram photos, Chris Brown and Rihanna decided to go public.
The two were photographed sitting courtside at a Lakers game Tuesday in Los Angeles.
They left the Staples Center holding hands as the Lakers beat the New York Knicks 100-94.

People who encounter Jesus want to tell others about Him. Christ's love inspires us to use many creative means to make His gospel understood to any audience – large or small. We use tools such as music, performing arts and sports to connect with people of all ages and develop friendships which can lead to conversations of eternal value.
When working in other cultures and among people of other faiths, Christ's message of peace is our starting point. We believe everyone has the right to hear this message and our hope is to see fellowships of believers, worshipping and following Jesus in every nation, tribe and tongue.
