Hi CoxTech1I purchased an sb6141 and had it provisioned today. I can see all 8 down channels are bonded and 3 up channels are bonded. I have the Ultimate Plan and live in Chandler AZ.
Everyone on the ultimate tier, and such. Should use the verizon fios speedtest site to test, as its more reliable, and can handle the faster speed's. Here's the link »speedtest.verizon.com/fios300/
FWIW I have not achieved full speeds on any speed testing sites in a very long time (probably years.) I have always found that the most accurate way to measure download speed is by using news groups. For example, I am on the Ultimate tier and after the upgrade, the highest speed test result I can get is 45 mbps. Before the network upgrades it topped out at 30 mbps. I have always, however, received full speeds and then some with usenet.
FWIW, using giganews as the usenet service, I averaged 80Mb/s for the ten minute stretch I tested it tonight.Since this last bandwidth upgrade, Giganews had maxed my my available bandwidth at 50Mb/s now it's barely more than half of the 150 I'm supposed to get with Ultimate Cox. I don't know if there's a cap on that service but I may have reached it if there is...but before, I would agree that Giganews/usenet was a good way to test...still might be if there's an issue with my downstream.
Hi CoxTech1I purchased an sb6141 and had it provisioned today. I can see all 8 down channels are bonded and 3 up channels are bonded. I have the Ultimate Plan and live in Chandler AZ.[att=1]My upload speeds appear to reflect the Ultimate plan (20Mb/s) but my download speeds are nowhere near max on the various speedtest servers I checked.I called and made sure I wasn't on a promotional package and the rep said there is no "D3" for the Ultimate plan. Any ideas on why my down is so low for the 150 plan?My signal to noise is 37dB for all 8 downstream channels. Any suggestions on why my up looks good but downstream is way off of max? It almost seems governed to around 70Mb/s which seems like the Premier but my Upstream is definitely Ultimate speeds.Thanks : )
It was my router. Even though it says it has a gigabit WAN, it's obviously the problem. Here's my results without the router:
I highly recommend the NetGear R6300. I get my rated speed with it.
I bought the ASUS RT-AC66U router today and posted this after setting it up: (Cox 150 Mb/s Ultimate Plan) Motorola sb6141 modem

State funds Railwalk improvements
By Emily Ford and Karissa Minn
SALISBURY The state will pick up the $290,000 tab to replace crumbling, narrow sidewalks threatening to derail economic development in part of downtown.
The long-awaited project in the 300 block of North Lee Street part of an area known as the Railwalk district, made up of renovated warehouses will include wider sidewalks, street lights, trees, crosswalks and more.
N.C. Rep. Harry Warren, R-Rowan, landed the funding through the N.C. Board of Transportation and the Statewide Contingency Fund.
Warrens announcement came two days after a man was shot in the leg nearby in the 400 block of North Lee Street, after a private party Saturday night at the Black Box Theater.
Mayor Susan Kluttz said streetscape improvements will make the area safer.
Well-lighted, attractive urban areas can be deterrents to crime, agreed Lynn Raker, the citys urban design planner who designed the project.
In a letter to Warren and N.C. Sen. Andrew Brock, R-Rowan/Davie, Kluttz said the city urgently needs sidewalks and other pedestrian amenities to make the Railwalk district more appealing to businesses. Its the last major section of downtown without sidewalk improvements, other than in front of the Salisbury Police station at the corner of Lee and Liberty streets.
City Council voted unanimously in February to make the project a priority, due in part to concerns that Integro Technologies might leave. The high-tech company had moved into a warehouse at 305 N. Lee St., but clients from corporations like Merck, PepsiCo, Kimberly Clark, Proctor & Gamble and BMW were puzzled by the broken sidewalks.
We host a number of Fortune 100 companies that come into this business, operations manager Kevin Mather said. We get a lot of comments on what a beautiful city we have here, followed by, Whats going on with the sidewalks?
Mather called Mondays announcement great news.
Its an outstanding improvement, not just for this business but for our neighbors next door at the National Sportscasters Association, he said.
Integro provides light-sensing technology used by manufacturers in quality control.
Railwalk has been dubbed Salisburys business incubator for the new economy, and officials hope other high-tech firms will follow Integro and set up shop.
Mather said its been difficult for people in wheelchairs to get into the Integro building through the handicap accessible entrance, and improving the condition of the sidewalks will fix that.
Rowan Investment Co., founded by father-son development team Glenn and John Ketner, owns most of the block and kicked in $27,000 in 2009 to help the city tackle the nuisance overhead power lines.
Burying them cost $110,000.
The city pledged an additional $15,000 this year toward sidewalk improvements.
But the balance for the project remained $290,000.
Warren made a personal appeal to Speaker of the House Thom Tillis to allow Raker to give a presentation about why the city needed the funding.
Warren said he originally planned to ask for $170,000 because he thought lawmakers wouldnt approve more, but he decided to go ahead and request the full cost of the project.
He said hes delighted that the funding was approved.
I hope it does bring in additional jobs up there and further development for business in that area, Warren said. But in either case, the improvement itself will be good for Salisbury.
Kluttz said the news couldnt have come at a better time, when the city doesnt have money to spare.
As we look for new ways to reinvent our economy here, this is really exciting, she said.
Railwalk was a neglected area of downtown for years and very much in need of a boost, Kluttz said.
The citys work in 2009 stalled when officials couldnt find more money.
We had searched high and low for funding sources over the past couple of years, Raker said. With the citys coffers being really tight, there was really no hope of getting it funded.
Raker credited N.C. Department of Transportation officials for helping the city navigate the process.
Full funding surprised her.
Considering what the state has gone through over the current budget, I was stunned, Raker said. Very pleasantly stunned.
John Ketner, president of Rowan Investment Co., said the streetscape improvements will be a tremendously positive development in that part of town.
Weve worked very hard to bring life back to some of the buildings that are there, he said.
News of Saturdays shooting down the street saddened him, Ketner said.
But Im not sure theres any part of town thats immune to gun violence, he said.
With the addition of badly needed street lighting and more positive activity in the area, Ketner said the project will benefit downtown.
Construction should start this fall and wrap up two months later.
Kluttz said she suspected the project was a winner.
When you see the excitement of all the new things happening down there, it felt like the perfect project to receive funding, she said.

Connective tissue separates the pelvic organs. The tissue, called fascia, is attached to nearby muscles. The fascia and muscles support the bladder, vagina, and rectum. Defects in the fascia can cause cystoceles and rectoceles.
In a cystocele, there is a defect in the fascia between the bladder and vagina. This allows a part of the bladder wall to bulge into the vagina. There are three grades of cystocele:

In a rectocele, there is a defect in the fascia between the rectum and the vagina. This allows part of the wall of the rectum to bulge into the vagina.
The sooner that a cystocele or rectocele is treated, the better the outcome. If you suspect you have this condition, contact your doctor.
The walls between the vagina and bladder or rectum can be damaged by one or more of the following factors:
Factors that increase your risk for a cystocele or rectocele include:
Many cases are mild and do not have symptoms.
In more serious cases, the symptoms of cystocele include:
Symptoms of rectocele include:
If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to cystocele or rectocele. These symptoms may be caused by other, less or more serious health conditions.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. You may also have a vaginal and rectal exam. Tests for cystocele may include the following:
Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. For the mildest cases of cystocele and rectocele, no treatment is needed. For more serious cases, treatment options include the following:
A pessary is a device that is inserted into the vagina. It can provide support to keep the bladder and/or rectum in place.
Adding estrogen may help strengthen the walls of the vagina after
It may be delivered in the form of pills, creams, or patches.

I wanted this bag for a long time. While it is pricey, they will last forever if you take care of them. There are a couple of drawbacks...if you have any size to you and have ordered leather handles, you may want to order an extender from them. This makes the crossbody much more handy and comfortable. You can call them directly to order that. Also, if you are not careful, things can fall out. I wish they would work on that by adding snaps or velcro to inside pockets. Just learn to be careful. I also own a shell bag that was purchased years ago. Just gets better with time. Though the haversack has a few drawbacks, I would and probably will purchase another. Duluth Pack is good to work with.

I've known five people, myself included, that own a haversack and I've seen it perform well from a purse to a school bag.
Long before the iPad came out my spouse and I found it handy for carrying small IBM Thinkpads and Eee PCs. It's also good for keeping sketchbooks or reading material handy when you don't want to lug around a huge backpack, not to mention plenty of places to keep writing utensils organized.
The haversack combines the tough and well thought out design of a Duluth Pack product with a convenient size, I highly recommend it!

I bought an iPad and it fits perfectly into the zipper pocket of the Haversack! I have a neoprene sleeve that goes into the zipper pocket and the iPad slips right in. Like it was MADE for the iPad.

I use this as my commuter bag. Especially when I'm commuting by bike, it gives me a better center of gravity than a back pack. It's just big enough to carry lunch and office accessories I don't want to leave at work each day. The only real problem I have, is the front side of the case is notably faded relative to the back. Still functional, just not as sharp to look at.

I first bought this for my now wife. Then she packed it with too much stuff, so I got her the mini to keep the bulk down. I found this bag to be great when I am out looking for rocks and fossils. It holds quite a bit of stuff in seperate compartments and I can keep my field guides in there, too. I use bird watching binoculars and it's great to stow them away instead of around the neck. Remember the Jerry Seinfeld episode with the European Mans Bag? This isn't it. It's burly enough for anyone to carry.

Okay, so I went to the hunting lease yesterday and set out some hog logs to try and get some swine to come into killing range during the day. At one of the bait sites I have a pretty good tree that I have scoped out as a prime candidate for a climbing tree stand. Now the other bait site is in prime position to be hunted from my box stand. Here comes the quandary.... I have a game cam placed about ~300 yds north of my box stand and when I checked it over the last 4 months there has been a 8 point, an in velvet 4 point and assorted does crossing in front of this cam. When I was out there yesterday there is no really feasible place for a climbing stand.
So the crux of my dilemma is how to get the damn deer. Has anyone here used a ground blind and how effective are they? Do you put it in place days or weeks before the hunt? Have you had any luck putting it up the morning you hunt? Do you use loose material to blend it in to the surrounding enviroment? I need to work out some logistics before bow season starts and need some help.

(I've decided to work on the "grid," doing all 48 4K Whites in each month of the year. I anticipate this will take a long, long time. First ascents will always be made with Alex).
Pictures can be found on http://trishgrid.blogspot.com/
Tecumseh Trail from Tripoli Road, 6.2 miles roundtrip.
Second time doing Tecumseh. This time around, the weather was crisp and the wind was gusty. Enough to tell you that autumn is right around the corner.
I decided to try the Tecumseh Trail coming from Tripoli Road this time (instead of the ski area approach Alex and I did the first time around).
I woke early, left a note for Hugh, and got to the trailhead right after daybreak.
The trail starts off flat, and I made quick work of the smooth, easy first mile.
The path comes to a "saddle" at the 1.3-ish mark, then the grade increases to moderate.
I was huffing steadily along now, interested in whether or not I could make book time. This was my first time hiking without Alex, and I was curious about my own natural pace.
The path became ornery -- not because of grade, but because there are three knobs one must climb and descend. Nothing is steep, but psychologically I didn't feel like going up down up down up down. At the top of the first knob there is a look-out point, but I did not check it out on the ascent.
After the three knobs, the path descends into a col between the west peak and the true summit.
At this point there's only .6 miles to go, so I chugged up the remaining pitch.
At the top of this pitch, one can turn around and see some views. I snapped some pictures on the descent, which you can see below, after the summit pictures.
A short walk from the top of that pitch, and I was at the summit cairn.
I was pleased to see I had made it in just under book time. I sat, ate my breakfast, and enjoyed the very fall-like weather. The wind was gusting; at one point my proxy blew away and I had to go retrieve her from the neighboring scrub.
Limited views from the summit:
After a few Cliff Bars and some gulps of water, I began the return journey. I looked over the trees at the top of that first decent pitch. Here's the view from that spot:
I also checked out the view from the top of that first knob (third knob if you're returning).
Descent was quick and easy. I felt good.
About three quarters of a mile from the trailhead, I heard a "cough cough cough" sound. From reading the trip reports of others, I knew that could mean a bear was very close by. Looking down, I saw bear tracks in the mud at my feet.
I backed up a bit, jingled my bear bell awhile, then began to sing "Oh What a Beautiful Mornin.' " Continuing down the path slowly, I made enough noise to annoy other hikers for miles around. I kept that up for a few hundred yards. Of course, I saw no bear. I'm sure all animals cleared that side of the mountain after hearing my infernal racket.
A short time later, the hike was complete!
It was a great hike. Wonderful crisp weather, and I had the trail to myself the entire time.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (December 8, 2010)—Extremely impressive in the first two races of her career, Turbulent Descent will try something new in the $300,000-guaranteed Hollywood Starlet Saturday at Hollywood Park.

Inspired by Vulcanmarbles' Supernatural-inspired barricade in the bathroom (now there's a sentence you don't come across all that often!) I've decided to share the dream I had last night. For those of you who don't know me all that well: my mind is a strange place. This will be
beautifully weirdly illustrated by the dream which shall be described presently. For those of you who do know me well: What can I say? You know I love to share the madness.
The dream was mainly a Doctor Who / Star Trek crossover, sprinkled with a potpourri of whatever I could think of, apparently. River Song somehow accidentally ended up on Deep Space Nine as a sentient hologram, much like Moriarty in "Elementary, my dear Data" and "Ship in a bottle". She borrowed the Doctor's mobile emitter (the EMH Doctor, that is) so she could run around off the holodeck, kicking ass and being her usual BAMF self. Picard was on the Enterprise D, trying to speak to Sisko at DSN to get a situation rapport, but Dukat had taken over the station and wouldn't let Sisko use a secure channel. (Why this was important I do not know. Dukat was standing right there - a secure channel would hardly help.) Sisko and Dukat then spent some time throwing snarky comments back and forth while Emilé Zola got a suit fitted at Garak's. (SUDDENLY! on the promenade.) Groucho Marx rode by on a velocipede, followed by Yakko and Wakko Warner on tricycle and unicycle respectively. The Cowardly Lion was discussing something with Worf in the background, both gesturing wildly with arms and legs. Sadly a little subtitle was suspended in mid-air in front of them: [Inaudible dialogue], so I don't know what they were arguing about. River Song ran by with a blaster she had stolen from Han Solo (who was hot on her heels - both in the sexy way and the fast way, if that makes sense) - and then my mom called and woke me up.
Make of that what you will. I've given up trying to make sense or meaning out of my dreams. :P

MARTIN PEDROZA, ULTIMATE EAGLE, Winner— "This is undoubtedly the best horse I've ever ridden. I thought Martial Law was, but this horse is better. He's a younger version. This is just a beautiful horse to ride. People think he has to be on the lead, but he doesn't. I wanted to be on the lead, but it wasn't necessary. When he gets to the front he relaxes immediately. I was pretty confident and he came through like I thought he would."
JAVIER CASTELLANO, IMAGINING, Second: "I am very pleased with the way he ran. He's such a classy horse. He's a game horse and he's still learning. He's a young horse and is just going to get better and better. I thought I was going to catch the other horse but he just couldn't get by.
COREY NAKATANI, WESTERN ARISTOCRAT, Third: "(Cloud Man, who was pulled up on the final turn) was just inside me and I had to hesitate (when the incident occurred). I thought it cost me the race, because that point in the race is so crucial. If he was able to keep his momentum going I think I could have made up that length and a half. It's unfortunate, but thankfully everybody came back unscathed. My horse ran a good race, but the winner ran a little better."
MIKE PENDER, ULTIMATE EAGLE, Winner: "It's miraculous considering where this horse came from. He had colic (June, 2010) and was basically pronounced dead on the table. Somehow, by an act of God, he was brought back to life. He prefers the lead, but he doesn't have to have it. I was hoping he would assert himself and get the lead by himself, but that (Imagining) was pressing him every step of the way from the half-mile pole home. He just refused to let up. If that horse wasn't in the race, he would have been 10 in front and who knows what he could have done then. I thought the pace was realistic. Ultimately I'd like to get him back on dirt. He trains so much better on dirt and hasn't really handled synthetic surfaces all that well. We'll take it a day at a time from here."
JEREMY NOSEDA, WESTERN ARISTOCRAT, Third: "My horse ran great. I have to watch the replay.''
Notes: The Grade I was the first for Pender…Pedroza's most recent Grade I before Sunday was with E Z's Gentleman in the 2010 Triple Bend Handicap. The win aboard E Z's Gentleman was Pedroza's 1,000th at Hollywood Park…Martial Law's biggest victory came in the 1989 Santa Anita Handicap.
