Mrs. Haynes was absolutely fabulous! She worked around my husbands and my scheldule, took us to each property we wanted to see plus more. Mrs Haynes was very knowledgeable about the property & the areas we looked at. Once we decided on a house Mrs. Haynes was very prompt to send our offer in. She kept me updated at all times & returned phone calls & emails quickly. Mrs. Haynes was extremely helpful from start to finish. She did an excellent job walking us through all of the steps in the purchase process. I was very pleased with Mrs Haynes. Her friendliness made her a pleasure to deal with her & I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home !… MoreLess

It seems another sensless act of bad science has claimed more victims. When will the horror end?
Not going to get too specific here, the basics should do. I'm yacking in another forum, people are now claiming that H.A.A.R.P. is being used to manipulate yellowstone's caldera. You had to know this was comming and there it is. The same people are also claiming the deliberate removal of data from USGS website monitoring things.
I know it's bunk, but could use a bit more knowlage than I have to talk about, in a more intelligent manner, WHY it's bunk.

On the part of the storm the smoke it's just the storm is something else.
We'll say these -- is of course very wide and far reaching as we've seen the first estimates for the costs of the storm's damage.
On -- and -- are about what on next guess originally expected.
Jeff masses a director of -- urology for Weather Underground joining us now Jeff.
OK last Friday said this would likely be a billion of dollar -- Disaster.
My goodness it was so much more was -- net.
Yeah I was being conservative because I didn't know what mr.
-- is gonna hit relative to high tide.
If -- hit hit debt load tied to damage would have been far -- Yeah we're talking about twenty billion property damage is maybe ten billion -- thirty billion even Summers saying in lost business.
I mean what do you think now that you've seen the damage what do you think it could total.
Yes certainly -- a fifty billion between the two -- is probably a pretty good testament.
I'm a little surprised it isn't higher but we haven't seen what the -- business is going to be yet and certainly shutting down.
The nation's largest city and 10% of its GDP is going to be very costly.
Jeff area where the Weather Underground -- it's a no -- Boston insurance.
Officials this question but it appears of the weather patents.
All changing and these type of monster storms perhaps are becoming more likely would you agree with the Adam why.
I'd agree that in the last two years the US is seen an unprecedented sort of severe weather on slot.
I mean this year -- we -- you know of course sandy we had summertime in March last year we had record floods on the Mississippi the Missouri the -- -- -- And we had that tornado -- as well.
And I just say -- we've moved into a new climate regime.
It's not dissimilar climate I've known in thirty years as a meteorologist and I think have to point the finger towards heat trapping gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere here.
This is just a freak accident I mean this is two storms colliding that would normally never meet.
I mean it's it's it's a once in you know however many decades century accident that you -- -- happen.
-- freak events in the atmosphere happened naturally we saw -- back in 1903 that hit New Jersey that's the only American has ever done it.
So there is at large -- -- natural variability.
But just -- -- to need its purity of some of the disaster were seen in recent years are unlike anything we've ever seen in the US going back several centuries of record keeping.
Which makes me nervous us -- what you're expecting for this wind take away expect more of these big storms that obviously will turn into blizzards.
You know the only thing I'd be surprised at this winner parent or an ordinary winter.
We may have another winner like last you're basically did have a richer or not a severe one like the previous few winners -- -- got pounded his frequent snowstorms -- Normal is not normal anymore I just expect the abnormal.

for the Black Diamond Momentum DS Harness
Average Custy Rating:
(based on 15 reviews)
I bought this harness two years ago when I started climbing. There is practically no wear and absolutely none that would compromise the integrity! Comfortable material that gives good padding and support to your legs and back and durable stuff too. I love the speed loops! Quick and easy to adjust to various leg and waist sizes with all types of clothing! My waist is 28-30 had to buy the S-M harness and it fits great. My favorite thing about the harness is the speed loops; impossible to not be doubled back which is great for beginners!
Excellent choice for mountaineering as it allows you to adjust the waist and legs over clothing. Even if your weight fluctuates this harness can be adjusted to hold you in. This was my first time using the two waist buckles so a little fiddly. Probably better to leave one side set and only adjust that side only when required. It is comfortable enough (no different from any other harness) and materials feel durable. Good value harness that can do everything.
The best part of this harness is the huge range of sizes that this harness fits. My dad can fit in the same size harness that I do so it is great if I need to borrow a harness for a friend. Also you are able to center the belay loop with the two buckles which is great.
I got this harness a few years back, i had just started climbing so i wasn't sure exactly what i was looking for. I ended up loving the harness, it's great for beginners because of the speed adjustments so they don't have to fiddle with setting up their harness. However because of the speed adjustment you have trouble getting the perfect fit. Harness held up great to a large number of falls indoors and larger ones in WV. Overall the harness fits nice and gets the job done for a beginner, also has a good price point.
This thing is built solid. I've been using it for a year and besides some dirt and chalk, it doesn't show any wear. I love how adjustable the belt is... It works great for all the skinny ladies I take up to the crag, but it will still fit when I get fat too. Harnesses can always use more padding, but it's pretty comfortable without going overboard on weight. The gear loops are legit too - easy to clip and plenty of space for all the gear. The only real bummer is that it doesn't have a haul loop, but oh well...
Very light and comfortable harness. This is my first harness, and I didn't want to spend a lot of money, but didn't want to be the cheapest either. Legs straps are comfortable and the two adjustable waist point make it very easy to customize your personal comfort feel. Would definately recommend it to first time climbers.
Very light and comfortable. Leg straps easily adjust and the main harness has 2 adjustable points. This makes it easier to fit your own personal comfort level. Great for first time climbers who don't want to buy and expense harness but don't want the complete begginer product either.
This was my first harness and I still use it from time to time (I've had it for about two years). The construction is very solid and for the most part quite comfortable. The double buckle system is useful and compare to most other brands the XL size fits well (I'm 6ft,220lbs). Can't complain about the price so I'm very satisfied with the purchase.
I have been climbing with this harness for a few months and I have been very pleased with it from the day I got it. It is comfortable, fits well and so far its been very durable. I have taken several hard falls and I have no doubt that the harness will take as many more as I can throw at it.I would most certainly recommend this harness to a friend and have in fact gotten two of my buddies to buy the same harness and they love it too.
i bought this bc my old Momentum was getting to small for me, it turned out to be a great harness. The orange belay ring is pretty sweet, it's easy to use. The leg strap bands are really useful, bc of the way that the end are sown backwards, and the leg straps are also easily adjustable and comfortable. The two straps on either side of the belay loop make it easy to have my harness centered and not off-set on my hips. I wish that there was a chalk bag loop in the back, but i stopped crying after about a month...It's a great harness
I like the adjustable leg loops for winter climbing, but for your money you might be better off with something on the phoenix level- this harness is marginally more comfortable but 30$ more expensive (if you know where to shop). Also, typical BD- you have to invent a chalk bag hanger.

Forum Index » GEAR » New Down Quilt from Sierra Designs with built in hood and hand pockets
http://www.utahoutside.com/2013/08/sierra-designs-at-outdoor-retailer-summer-market-2013/Looks like the backcountry quilt is sub 2 pounds and rated to 30 degrees F.
Edited by jshann on 09/27/2013 19:29:33 MDT.
Prolite Gear video says it's 1 pound 7 ounces.
Thanks Aaron. I had watched it a few days ago, but forgot the weight ; ).
Lots of comments and answers to questions above:Someone mentioned the logo:Mark: Regarding the "non v" shape of the quilt footbox: I thought the same thing. I tried it, it worked for me and all our testers. I have one here I will send you to try if you will send it back. Let me know.Quilt specs: The quilt has been EN rated (yes you can do that with quilts) at 28 degrees. It weighs 1 pound 7 ounces, has 11 ounces of 800 fill dridown, has a 20d nylon ripstop shell and costs $259.There is a lot of talk here about this quilt, but the coolest item in the new SD line is not a quilt, its a bed. You can catch a glimpse if you go to sierradesigns.com and type "backcountry bed" in the search field. Since I know I will get asked the 30 degree version of that is a flat 2.0 pounds and costs $349. There is a 600 fill version at $249 that weighs more.ALL SD tents in 2014 are new. There are no double wall tents and no traditional vestibules in the line. All are single/hybrid walls. Gear storage is external, but does not block the door and is accessible from inside and out. You can get in and out of all the tents through a single door, you can leave the door open in all but the worst weather due to a unique door that is more of a wall/door/vent/window. You can cook safely while you are in the tent (though I won't be able to promote that due to CPAI-84). There are two freestanding versions, but the coolest and most applicable to this crowd is the new Flashlight (mentioned above) which is 2 lbs 15oz minimum weight (trekking pole set up), 2 door, 2 awning, 2 gear closet and BIG! It's $359, but there is a $259 version that is exactly the same except for less expensive heavier materials. If we made it out of really light fabric, It could probably be 2lbs 5, but for now the lightest is 30d with PU coating and 40d floors, taped. Here is a pic:Aaron: I make my own stuff too: its really the only way to get EXACTLY what you want when you are particular. It IS an advertisement! I LOVE this stuff!
Michael,What are the floor specs of your tents? LxWxH please? All your old one were about 84" or less long. Too small for us 6'4 guy. I hope you have a 90" plus long!?Thanks for your time. Ammon

Michael,You have my attention. I look forward to seeing what else you come up with for the 2014 line.Andrew
some great features on that quilt. Love the hood. But ,as already pointed out, the footbox entry looks too wide to not allow draughts in easily .
I have a sample available for testing and comment by any user if this forum who will actually use the bag soon (like next weekend, my window for any changes is almost closed), who is legitimately concerned about the footbox, and will send it back to me quickly with thoughtful comments based on your experience. Again, I have not experienced or heard about any issue with the footbox design, most testers were not as experienced with quilts as many of you. But if there are improvements to discover.......I'll sleep in it again tonight and focus on this area and let you know what I think. It's cold here is Spokane, so it should be a good testing night.....
My problem is that I find many foot boxes to be too small to accommodate a pair of size 15 feet without crushing the insulation.
All:Based on the comments above, I just spent some time looking at all the various quilts in my gear closet, specifically focusing on the "closure" of the underside of the footbox. First, some of the footboxes are deeper than others, the BCQ is about "medium" in its length, and on the large side of girth. In terms of closure, the V shape footboxes attempt to roll the quilt under you, and are effective at the footbox but obviously flop open towards the top. The BCQ is different in that the handpockets create a full-length fold under of the edge of the bag, show here:This folds the edge of the quilt under for the entire length of the bag, especially for stomach and side sleepers like me who will tend to keep their hands in the pockets most of the time, tensioning the edge and folding the side under. Now, if it twists at the foot, you will get drafts right at the top of the footboy, but no more so than quilts with a shorter footboy and a V shape. We could, of course, add more material to make it a V shape, or lengthen the footbox, but this would add weight. Or the term we use in our team of corporate greed: "It's a dollar and an ounce". My conclusion continues to be that it's good to go as-is, but the offer for additional perspective still stands...
Hard to have a viable opinion without actually seeing or using the thing, but in the video it really looks like the bottom end of the quilt flops open exposing the underside of the foot-box quite a bit as he adjusts. I am an "active" sleeper so for a quilt meant to go below freezing that would be a big concern for me. The underside of a Katabatic quilt comes to a "V" on its way to the foot-box (and BTW is shaped to not flop open at the top), but an additional feature is an slightly elastic adjustable strap with flat hardware placed a few inches above the joining of the "V". I always thought that was a smart low-weight design feature to address a similar concern.(I took this photo from Hendrik for illustration)Also, looking at the underside of your quilt I cannot make out how your neck closure works. Does the system rely on just the hand pockets to cinch the top?

Michael ,I live in Richland Washington and I would love to test this out and also my brother; both from the Tri cities we are going to Lake Roosevelt next weekend at my brothers property. We both use the Exped Dream Walkers 250 and would love to review and compare them. We are both 6 foot one guys. I will sent you a pm with more info Ammon BruceAlso this is a cool way to advertise,but if we could get the 2014 Dealer Workbook sent to us with all the specs. If you have so many new items; let us Christmas shop the catalog. Most smaller retailers will not carry everything you will sell. That way we can compare notes! I have my fingers crossed!
Edited by AmmonBruce on 09/28/2013 12:32:22 MDT.
Got your message. Coming your way on Monday.....
Looked at the SD site for tents.When will the new tents be posted?Thanks.
I get just about everything I can from the cottage gear maker. I stopped getting Backpacker a few years back since they don not cover much that is relative to those with experience or those who are truly UL, or looking for functional high quality gear. As you pointed out, most of it just sucks. I have several Hammockgear quilts (under and over) and they are great, plus Adam has retro improved items for me at no cost. The designs are simple and practical and I deal with good folks, with great personal service, and I can support someone here in central Ohio. That is just one example, I could go on and on (hammocks, backpacks, cuben tarps, etc.). To me it is clear that the folks at Gossamer Gear actually use the backpacks they design as compared to a UL commercial product like Golite, not that they do not all have there place.It is good to hear of the new direction of SD, hope it works out for you. Your new tent looks like some cottage gear makers (see Tarptent) designs we have seen for years, but nice to see it making it mainstream I suppose. The quilt looks a bit gimmicky to me, most here want practical and no frills. The hand pockets just do not make sense to me at all, you can't grab a regular quilt and move around with it? What quilts have you tested that are too small to do this? I can get the Hammockgear and other cottage makers to make it whatever specs I want for minimal charge, I have never had a problem moving around with my quilt as opposed to a bag (which is why I use a quilt) and as for a hood, why? the reason most of us do not like them is that they are confining and are always there, I like to be able to wear a fleece, down, both or none at all, the hood takes that versatility away from me.The backpacking quilt should be like the quilt at home and move with you, with no pockets or hood IMO. I can also see hands getting a bit too sweaty in those pockets. Anyway, nice to see what is going on at SD, keep sharpening the pencil, I doubt many that use Cottage makers will switch, but the newbs and others out there reading the Backpacker gear guide in March may be the better for it.
After rereading your post with specs, I am assuming your en rating is lower extreme and not the comfort rating, am I right? Also just a few more observations, particularly how they relate to the UL crowd. If I compare my HG Burrow 20 quilt with the SD one, this is what I find: SD is 24 oz, HG is 17.3, 6 oz difference, HG has 12 oz down in an Argon shell (1 oz more) and is rated to what I consider a conservative 20 degrees, with a price of $263. So that is a 28% weight savings for a warmer bag? The shelter could be similarly compared to the TT Scarp, SMD Lunar Duo, etc.I guess my question is who is your clientele? Are you going after what you perceive as a gap between the commercial and the cottage gear maker? What I am seeing is something in the middle. You are never going to sell a heavier, same price or more expensive item to the UL crowd, and most newbs are going to stick with the straight forward sleeping bag, tent, pack, etc. when they first start out? People seek out UL, they don't go to REI to find it at least not in my experience, we only shop there for sporks.I think it is great to see a different approach to it all, I just don't quite get your market segment? Those truly looking for UL gear will find it and you will still always be a quite a bit behind the cottage gear makers, right? I mean you are saying this is coming out in 2014, HG switched to the lighter Argon fabric with one quick announcement on the HG forums, by 2014, there will most likely be something lighter still and you will be looking at fabrics like Argon for 2016.
Looks like a walrus or MSR Zoid, might be interesting
Those would drive me nuts. Like sleeping with mittens on.So all the two person tents will only have a single door?

The Skunk and the KKK
I wasn't sure if it was another dream,
It was so real I could hear Willie scream,
They were back again,
Chasing me, chasing him,
Just because we were friends,
Sometimes Willie and I would meet,
Play basketball on the same dirt street,
But Willie was black and I was white,
It bothered those who were uptight,
They threatened to take it to the extreme,
I woke, glad this time it was only a dream,
As the sun crept over the mountains green,
I slid into my hand-me-down jeans,
Mindful of the cold, I buttoned my coat,
Looked down at my feet, they seemed remote,
Decided to go barefoot even on the rocks,
Rather than wearing wet shoes and socks,
I raced to the barn and checked the sow,
She would have her litter any time now,
But she was still big and round,
Lying in a thin layer of straw off the ground,
Wanting to watch her, a ladder I found,
In the barn's side room I climbed to the top,
Positioned myself on a rafter so I would not drop,
Thinking the sow had no choice but to allow,
But a scratching noise distracted me now,
Dirt was pulled away, then a pointed black nose,
When two button eyes appeared, I froze,
Instant recognition that I was treed,
Until she left, there was no way I could be freed,
The skunk sniffed the air delicately to check for a threat,
She smiled, I'm sure she smiled, at my drops of sweat,
She went around the room searching twice,
She scurried away after finding no mice,
"Breakfast! Come and get it before I throw it away!"
Dad called out. "We've all got work to do today."
My brothers and sisters did our assigned chores,
I left with Dad so he could work in the store,
But once in town I beelined it to see Willie,
This time with shoes, it was rather chilly,
We were going to sneak in a basketball game,
Knowing it was risky, we went there just the same,
There was but one gym in this town,
No one but whites, no black or brown,
We had saved money so we didn't really sneak,
We just wanted to watch, just one peek,
Several teenagers met us at the door,
"What did you two come here for?"
"You know your kind ain't allowed in this gym,"
He glared at me, "You'll get the same as him,"
Willie and I took off like bats from hell,
I could hear the boys cursing when one of them fell,
"We know where you live. We'll get you at night,"
We worried we were too small to put up much fight,
Willie came home with me after we told my dad,
He was calm and collected, but I knew he was mad,
A rifle and a shotgun were readily at hand,
He was ready and able to make a stand,
But I thought for awhile and came up with a plan,
"Dad, don't worry, the Kwanokasha will help fight,
I'll have strength to get through this night,"
Then using Choctaw ways that I'd been taught,
I rigged a box for that skunk to be caught,
She seemed to know I meant her no harm,
But I watched for signs she was alarmed,
Later that night three cars pulled into view,
We waited silently as the suspense grew,
Willie waited at the window as our lookout,
Dad at the door with guns ready to spout,
As silent as a shadow to the barn and back,
I returned with the box ready for an attack,
At the car, flasks were emptied as they drank,
Around them I circled until finally at their flank,
I crept closer to see why they would hesitate,
Gasoline soaked torches were to be our fate,
They donned white sheets and prepared to go,
Another example of the infamous Jim Crow,
They were lighting torches close to the cars,
Thinking they were the only ones under the stars,
They didn't see me when I tossed the skunk,
It hit right in the middle of a trunk, "KERPLUNK!"
The skunk wasn't too happy at this turn of events,
And doused four of those scheming gents,
They scattered quickly as the scent hit the air,
Their scheme interrupted but they didn't care,
Ghostly figures ran stumbling into the woods,
But all of them had forgotten their flaming goods,
The gasoline they had carried became a bomb,
The cars exploded loudly, one by one by one,
Soon it was over and the night was calm,
But around town for the next few days,
Several sullen people glanced my way,
I'm glad no newspapers showed to get our views,
A neighboring state grabbed all the news,
When a governor with a baseball bat,
Said , "No blacks can enter, and that is that,"
Times have changed but there are still punks,
One of these days, they might meet a skunk.

DOT upgrading 'gateway' pedestrian bridge in Menomonee Falls
Lane closures on Hwy. 41/45 will be off-peak, at night
Menomonee Falls - The bridge connecting Water Street over US Highway 41/45 in Menomonee Falls will soon receive a face-lift.
Construction has begun on the Wisconsin Department of Transportation's 365-feet long, 9.7-feet wide pedestrian bridge. Construction continues through late June or early July. The bridge will also be painted in late August.
The project costs $620,953 with the village of Menomonee Falls contributing $160,000, according to Village Manager Mark Fitzgerald.
"Even though it's not our bridge, it's a gateway feature coming in into the village from US 41 and it's starting to look pretty poor," Fitzgerald said.
The bridge connects Water Street on both sides of the freeway. There will also be new approaches on both ends of the bridge where it flows downward to the pedestrian sidewalks, Fitzgerald said.
Zenith Tech, the project contractor, is performing maintenance work consisting of blast cleaning and painting the structural steel, concrete work on the deck and removal and replacement of the protective fence and lighting, according to Emlynn Grisar, communications manager for the DOT.
Once work begins on the bridge's structural steel, there will be lane closures on Hwy. 41/45 in order for construction crews to access the structure from underneath. To prevent freeway congestion, Grisar said work is restricted to off-peak and night closures. There will also be occasions when a detour route will be required as a result of the northbound Pilgrim Road ramp closure.
During phases of the construction, the skywalk may be closed to pedestrian traffic, as well. Grisar said notification of the skywalk closures will be posted two weeks before the actual closure.

It would be very interesting to see if attendance has increased overall at shooting ranges. Something tells me that most are not cleaning out the shelves at sporting goods stores to shoot all of this up.I was in Gander Mtn yesterday and could not believe what little inventory was available.
Wise people began stocking up right after the 2008 election. We know what´s coming.
Also it´s likely the significant amount of ammunition bought up by the federal government has contributed to the shortage. Ammo prices have nearly doubled since last year.
#1, the last few times I was at the range, I had to wait nearly an hour for a lane; around here at least, there´s definitely more people getting guns. In Maryland something like more guns were sold in the last month than in the prior year. Most people are buying their ammo at the range rather than shooting their own.And the media is just noticing the shortage of rounds?
My son, my daughter and her boyfriend, and I went to the range on Super Bowl Sunday afternoon, expecting a very light crowd. WRONG!!! It was a full boat on the 25-100 yard range and waiting time at the pistol range. I was shooting .17WMR on a single opening at the 50 yard and everyone else in my group were shooting 12 gauge slugs at the 100 yard range.And Hot Wells had a sign stating they were closing at 40pm for the game (opened at 10pm).
This is old news.
Maybe the munitions manufacturers should limit the amount of ammunition to the government just as we are rationed at the stores. The government is trying to defeat the second amendment like they defeated the Soviets ... by outspending them.Any business dreams of being a sole supplier; but, have these manufacturers thought of what happens when there is only a sole consumer ... they are owned by that consumer.
Not to mention that from the moment you begin shooting, several people will ask you if they can have your spent brass.
This article contains the repeated lie that an "assault weapon" was used at Newtown. Almost every article about guns is repeating this lie. I think the repetition of this lie is the sole point of these articles.
@ Right you are. Calibers I use (6) especially high power are now near a dollar a round and going up. My local gun shop FFL dealer has plenty of ammo and is making a killing by jacking up the price on all of his calibers. My strategy for the last four years has been to buy a certain amount every two weeks. The result has been amazing. Bigger gun safe has been purchased and many more .50 cal ammo cans attained during that time. Sitting ok as far as ammo goes. My range time has been reduced and when I do go, I concentrate on *quality time*. I keep all brass.
Seems like a great opportunity for new suppliers overseas. Even Obama can´t buy up all the worldwide supplies.
My last post is directed at poster #2. Thanks.
Be careful, #10. Anything more than six rounds is considered a weapons cache...
According to a friend of my husband´s, Georgia Arms was once again absent from the gun show in Chantilly, VA, the third month in a row. According to its website, Georgia Arms is still out of stock on all inventory. Primers also sold out on the first day of the show.
Does anyone see an end to the ammunition shortage? I don´t because of the combination of high consumer demand and the apparent manipulation of the market by the feds by way of the unexplained purchase of 1.6 billion rounds. The companies who supplied the bullets to the government have apparently remained unknown. No one in the media, or in Congress seems to care enough to ask about unprecedented ammunition purchases by government. Bye.
What do you do with ´´spent brass´´?
#10 Ok then. So be it and it is. #16 Three things. Number one. Reload your own cases.Number two. If the price is right, sell to other hand loaders.Number three. To the recycle metal bin.Most shooters in my neck of the woods are picking up their own brass. Even spent .22´s are getting hard to find.

The whimsical nature and magical surprises of those first Fisher-Price toys quickly caught on and became the hallmarks of Fisher-Price ever since. Fisher-Price believes in the potential of children and in the importance of a supportive environment in which they can grow, learn, and get the best possible start in life.

Renegades will go on hiatus after the first season. Apparently the decision was made so that any subsequent animation would be more in step with the next live action movie.

Good morning and welcome to Summit Up, the world's only daily column that's singing the praises of Ullr hoping to see a little snow. It's the time of year right?All together now, to the tune of your favorite German, folk song:It's a name avid skiers throw around,When there's no snow to be found,Too brown is our thirsty ground!Ullr, you Nordic mythical thing...Bring us snow, and we'll really sing.More terrain is what we need,The weather report, every morning is what we read,Only seeing partly cloudy skies, makes the tear in our eyes rise.We desire a foot or more and without it, nice weather is just a bore!Snow! Snow! Ullr, such a crueler ruler.Snow! Snow!Fresh powder is what's cooler.Skiing, riding whatever you doGear up and grab your crew.Days on the mountain are fresh,But only with snow - and more! Not less!Without it, we're in obvious distress...Have we made it clear to you, that we're the types that like it cold?It's when the mountain's covered tops where white is gold.Snow! Snow!Ullr, cut it out,Snow is what it's all about!And it's on that note that, we out.

Why Is There So Little Inflation?

Why Is There So Little Inflation?
little inflationInflation should be much higher than it is right now…shouldn't it…?
ACCORDING to Milton Friedman, "inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon."
If that is true, then you have to wonder where the heck all of the inflation is, writes Martin Hutchinson for Money Morning.
Every central bank in the Western world is holding interest rates down, and almost all of them are printing money like it's going out of style.

Dearest Alexander, Please accept my sincerest apologies for the very embarrassing representation of the Australian public demonstrated by this radio interview. Please be assured that, whilst I am sure this mindless 'ditsy' admiration is mildly flattering, Australia can also boast ardent fans of your history of directing and acting talents, and your exciting future endeavours. I believe these radio 'personalities' accurately demonstated their inability to research and identify with you or respect your valuable time and resources. Please do not be influenced by this disappointing experience, if you now have doubts to incorporate Australia in your future business or pleasure travels. I am certain you would encounter many talented and worthy promoters, professionals and even devoted fans of your many attributes. I hope we will have the opportunity to welcome you in the very near future.. Kram Lorraine xx

..problem-team bushbama is also involved in corporate push for fiscal scapegoating of those who had nothing to do with Wall $treet economic disaster, documented here:
"The left-right divide among the elites, the 1%, is usually represented as Democratic vs. Republican. But that's only true among the electorate, and then only on some issues. As the following shows very clearly, the leadership of both parties is deeply in bed with the Billionaire push — fronted by Pete Peterson — to kill off the social programs.
There's a true bipartisan consensus among billionaire-backed Democrats and billionaire-backed Republicans — "All your money are belong to us."
Fix the Debt is a true bipartisan operation
Take a look at the great research done on "Fix the Debt" by the true-progressive watchdog group SourceWatch and PRwatch, the good folks who brought you ALECexposed.
From their new Fix the Debt portal, we find this about Fix the Debt and its leadership (my emphasis everywhere and some reparagraphing):
The Campaign to Fix the Debt is the latest incarnation of a decades-long effort by former Nixon man turned Wall Street billionaire Pete Peterson to slash earned benefit programs such as Social Security and Medicare under the guise of fixing the nation's "debt problem." Through a special report and new interactive wiki resource, the Center for Media and Democracy — in partnership with the Nation magazine — exposes the funding, the leaders, the partner groups, and the phony state "chapters" of this astroturf supergroup. Learn more at PetersonPyramid.org and in the Nation magazine.
Fix the Debt is led by the president of the CRFB, Maya MacGuineas. Erskine Bowles, and Alan Simpson are listed as its "founders." Michael Bloomberg, Judd Gregg, and Ed Rendell are listed as its "co-chairs." There is an 11 member steering committee. …
Ed Rendell is a co-chairman of Fix the Debt. In media appearances, he is only introduced as the former Democratic governor of Pennsylvania (2003-2011), yet he has extensive corporate and financial ties.
A fine mix of perps. Erskine Bowles is a Clinton man. Bowles and Simpson are Obama men, hand-picked by our president to lead his personal "fix the debt" commission, aka the Catfood Commission. Judd Gregg was the Republican that Obama wanted to install in his first-term cabinet as Secretary of Big Money. (Scorecard note: When you hear Simpson–Bowles, you should see Barack Obama. In my mind, they are his surrogates, his water-carriers, just as he and Bill Clinton are Pete Peterson's water-carriers.)"

I don't take it personally, getting emotional over this kind of stuff is a waste of life. I just found your post to be a bit speculative. Besides, if the chip is awful, I feel sorry for those stuck with an older platform. AMD will still sell chips, but those wanting to upgrade won't have much of a choice and Intel won't be lowering their prices.
What exactly was everyone expecting? I expect AMD will do what they have always done which is give great price/performance. "Assuming leads to the darkside" - Yoda
i blame marketing The moment people heard "FX" many, me included, thought that Amd would come out stomping. setting up shop in intel's zipcode. I'm seriously considering bd. But if. It ain't a high performance product why water down the fx badge. I've seen many ford mustang cobras but never a ford festiva. Cobra or windstar cobra. But if I'm wrong I will apologize to amd users buy a eight core and post my invoice.
To me, the FX moniker hints at excellent overclocking, and nothing else. The Guinness record confirms that the FX moniker is quite appropriate... But yes, I must agree that maybe marketing is missing the mark, but prices are part of marketing too, so you can't just simply say "Oh boy, FX, it should be a top performer!!"...you need to consider everything we know And I say everything, as what we do know now isn't very much. And please do not forget, that while the "FX" level of chip was around back when AMD was on top for performance, most "hardcore" overclockers were using Opteron chips...NOT the FX. So clearly the situation is not the smae here...I'm pretty sure JF-AMD stated there would be no Opteron chips for the desktop enthusiast space.
Every one has been speculating about BD . No one KNOWS for sure just what it is going to do . The speculation I am doing is biased on the price range . But this is really not a good indicator either as we know AMD likes to keep the prices lower than Intel ( Unless they have a chip that can DOMINATE like the Athlons did ) .
fx bulldozer is merely a pipe cleaner cpu for future trinty apu. fx=k overclocking capable. christ they will probably release trinity b4 bulldozer. Its like fermi with nvidia. release than tweak. next node competitive. IT IS A SERVER BASED CPU!
Unless? Your post makes no sense. AMD was cheaper when they did "dominate" The Athlon 64 was cheaper than the Pentium 4 The Athlon 64 X2 cheaper than the Pentium D The Athlon Series dominated and was still cheaper. So whats your point? This thread has become The Bulldozer Information thread 2.0v - full of speculation and no substance.
llano is the direction AMD is going. trinity is the next step. bulldozer is module for a reason. desktop is not profitable for amd in performance or enthusiast. Amd knows what will sell in their target demograph. llano is selling. interlagos will sell. bulldozer is the red headed step child.
Well, they need the enthusiast market. If not for the enthusiasts trumpeting how awesome the Athlon cpus were back in the day, nobody would have bought them. Heck, even with proof a lot of people went with Intel because of brand name recognition. Sadly, AMD is viewed as a second-class, knock-off brand by the vast majority of people. They need to release some kick ass enthusiast chips to get momentum swinging in their favor. The world record overclock is a nice step in that direction. They just need to keep it up. If they can hit the sweet spot in price/performance on the first gen of this chip, they might be able to bat one out of the park with some tweaking. Here's to hoping that the FX line is competitive. If it is, that means more aggressive pricing and lower proces for AMD and Intel fans.
they dont need the enthusiast market. they need more of the server market. we all love our custom desktops. we are a dying breed. smart phones and tablets and laptops are profitable. Its like fast food, people love it. servers are the workhorses with high margins. just look at consoles.The hatred of any true gamer. yet people love them. fast food for ADD sheeple. christ look at gears of war 3. man i didnt think they could have dumbed it down so a 5 year old could play but they did.
They need that segment of the market, so they can evangelize the product, and convince people to buy AMD desktops, netbooks, notebooks, etc. It won't matter if fusion or other products are awesome if the public perception is that they are second rate. And yes, the server market is their bread and butter. But it's nice to have some extra something on the side.
AMD (and Intel) don't care less about the odd system builder like us. Just because we buy a high priced CPU once every 1-3 years doesn't make us desirable consumers or profitable. AMD are concerned with fullfilling BIG orders of thousands of OEM CPUs to retailers and e-tailers. 1 order from techtard, trickson or anyone else every few years is not profitable. The reason they're viewed as second class is because they've been trying to cater to the enthusiasts in the past with their ultra fast Athlon/Duron series which wasn't appealing to the general public enough for AMD's brand to go mainstream. If AMD keep worrying about performance only and breaking overclocking records they'll always be second class to 99% of the average joe because in REAL LIFE nobody cares about that geeky stuff. It's like AMD can't win. They can only build their brand if they go mainstream and appeal to the wider audience, but then you guys complain and want them to deliver spectacular performance which keeps them niche and unknown. Then you complain because they are unknown due to your demands for a niche product. What AMD need to do is sell more of those low end Llano chips to home users (desktop, laptops, tablets) and force it down their throats until the average joe see them as a credible house-hold name. Once they've got brand loyalty they can focus on other areas, like performance records.
You follow the money. 90% of people can barely operate a computer, click on browser,read email. im someone and post on your wall, play flash game or twitter some crap. They dont even use the potential of their pc. Why would they need more? answer they don't.
Just posting to apologize for the double post. I did see this thread but when I saw it was more than 6 pages long I figured it couldn't have been from today - guess I should have actually read it. Oh well. Mea culpa.
the only thing i care about is, will this chip be faster than my firstname.lastname@example.com? i'm itching to upgrae and sandy is a bit out of my price range.
I say Gen 2 of Bulldozer aka FM2 model, not sure how well the AM3+ Models will roll. Dont get me wrong ive always noticed AMDs prices were reasonable compared to intels even when AMD Kicked Intel in the ass with the 940 Claw n Sledge Hammer CPUs
AMD's CPUs took care of me on L4D, BF and Supreme Commander and easily handles WinRAR, transcoding and file conversion to suit my needs FX will be an improvement in all regards since it is a new microarchitecture intended for servers and high-end desktops so it will be another win in my book especially coming out of the gates at these awesome prices having said that, I am waiting for piledriver because I am altering my buying cycles from early-adopter to buying my CPU & GPU once they have matured at least 6 months from release
Intel and AMD exist in a wonderful country where capitalism exist, which allows us to create competition in which companies strive to beat each other. Either way a new processor is always a win win to the consumer
If that price tag is real, then it's a win for me. Looks good Price/Performance wise, even if we don't know anything about performance - it's still 8 core. And yes, AMD already explained some time ago, that those are real 8 cores.
Like a lot of people have been looking for BD information I see they have a FX-8170 due to come out in Q1 2012. That makes me wonder why this is so? Unless they added it to compete with the upper performing Intel's.

Rubberized hardshell protection offers full accessibility to the touch screen, sensors, ports, and antenna.
Though the plastic is thick, Hardskin gives you the sense that the iPhone is safe against a drop while inside, and small finger indents in the centers of the left and right sides provide places to grip or rest a finger while using your other hand for the screen. - iLounge (See it all)
