Well, it finally happened: Spotify has reportedly inked a deal with Sony Music Entertainment to start offering its wildly-popular freemium music subscription in the United States for the first time.
After years of anticipation and months of strong hinting, news that the Swedish music service convinced at least one major label to sign on to its music service, which allows users to listen to up to 20 hours of just about any music they can think of per month and creating shared playlists with their friends, all without paying a single cent, was broken by All Things Digital.
A source close to Spotify told me months ago that Sony was close to signing this deal; early last year, it rolled out free listening limits in a transparent attempt to make its service more label-friendly in the states; and the company bought server space here and started hiring New York-based ad sales reps last year. So this news wouldn't have come as a surprise, were it not for Spotify's well-earned reputation for promising to launch in the states and failing to deliver.
This Sony deal, which All Things Digital's Peter Kafka says was verified by multiple sources (neither Sony nor Spotify would comment on the record), does not ensure that Spotify will launch here by the end of the year, or indeed, at any other time. But it's the first truly solid indication that Spotify really does plan to give U.S. music fans a powerful new listening option on multiple app platforms – smartphones and computers first, then televisions and cars – and that the major labels might be willing to offer the company sustainable licensing rates as it does so.
So, why was Sony the first of the four major labels to license its music to Spotify for a United States-based music service? We can't help but notice that it's the only one of the four that sells consumer electronics equipment. Sony's recently-enlightened vision for connected entertainment services across computers, televisions and portable devices depends on services such as the much-loved Spotify, which allow the same user to access the same account on a wide variety of devices. This surely likely the only factor, but out of the four major labels, only Sony stands to sell more hardware if Spotify and other unlimited music services take off.
Spotify runs for free on Mac and Windows desktops and laptops. In order to use the iPhone or Android mobile app — which includes the ability to cache songs for playback without using your phone's data connection (up to 3,333 on the iPhone) — you'd need to subscribe. A full, mobile-enabled subscription to Spotify will likely cost $10 per month, which is the going rate stateside.
All Things Digital reports that free version of the U.S.-based Spotify will offer the same 20 hours of free listening per month that its European cousin does. Without that free version, which is relatively unlimited compared to the time limitations of MOG, Rhapsody and other U.S.-based music subscriptions, Spotify would lose much of its allure. Assuming the remaining three majors (EMI, Warner and Universal) as well as the big independent music aggregators (The Orchard, Merlin, IODA, Iris, CD Baby, etc.) fall into line, this Sony deal is good news for Spotify – and potentially for music fans, too.

Liberty volleyball has won four out of its last five matches, and plays at Presbyterian College and Winthrop this weekend.
Liberty Volleyball Match Notes Liberty (5-15, 4-3 Big South), winner of two straight matches, and four out of its last five, competes at Presbyterian College (7-15, 5-2) on Friday before a match at Winthrop (11-10, 2-5), Saturday. PC will host the 2013 Big South Volleyball Championship. Presbyterian College (7-15, 5-2) enters the weekend tied for first in the Big South with Radford. PC is one-half match ahead of Gardner-Webb in the conference standings and one match ahead of Liberty, Coastal Carolina and High Point.
Liberty at a Glance Liberty swept both Charleston Southern and Coastal Carolina at home, last Friday and Saturday, outhitting those two opponents, .271-.112. On Friday against CSU, Nzea McQuitery and Lillie Happel both recorded 12 kills. During Saturday's win, Jade Craycraft recorded a triple-double, and Caroline Douglas scored a season-high 11 kills. Liberty head coach Shane Pinder picked up his 100th career Big South win, Saturday against Coastal. During conference play, the Lady Flames rank second in the Big South in both hitting percentage (.229) and opponents' hitting percentage.
How to Follow the Lady Flames Live stats and live video will be available for both of this weekend's matches, through links on LibertyFlames.com. Live stats will appear courtesy of the respective athletics communications offices of Presbyterian College and Winthrop. Each of the week's matches can be viewed through free live video streaming via the Big South Network.
Big Weekend For the first time this season, the Lady Flames recorded back-to-back 3-0 sweeps, downing Charleston Southern, Friday before beating Coastal Carolina, Saturday. Liberty has now won four out of its last five matches, and is one match out of first place in the Big South.
Triple-Double in Progress Senior setter Jade Craycraft recorded her third triple-double of the season, and fourth of her career, on Saturday against Coastal Carolina, with 10 kills, 30 assists and 11 digs. Among Lady Flames since the start of the 2001 season, only Kallie Corbin (2006-09) posted more career triple-doubles than Craycraft, with six. Craycraft remains the only Big South player with a triple-double this season. Also on Saturday, Craycraft passed Laura Miller (1990-92) into fifth place in program history with 3,831 career assists.
Welcome Back Redshirt sophomore Caroline Douglas, the 2012 Big South Player and Freshman of the Year, missed all but one of Liberty's first 19 matches this season due to injury. On Saturday, she returned in a big way, scoring a match-high 11 kills at a .364 pace to help the Lady Flames to a 3-0 sweep of visiting Coastal Carolina.
Double 12's On Friday against Charleston Southern, senior Lillie Happel and freshman Nzea McQuitery tied for the match high with 12 kills. McQuitery set a new career high versus the Buccaneers, while Happel recorded a double-double and drew closer to the top 10 on the program's career kills list. Happel is currently ranked 12th in program history with 1,133 career kills. Happel's former teammate, Karyl Bacon (2007-10) is ranked 11th all-time at Liberty with 1,155 career kills, while current Liberty assistant coach Rebecca Rudnick is 10th, with 1,164 kills. Jennifer (Belk) Vaden, Liberty assistant coach, sits in third with 1,789 career kills.
Closing In A pair of Lady Flames is closing in on the 1,000-career dig milestone. Gabrielle Shipe has collected 985 career digs, while Lillie Happel has posted 919 digs. Shipe needs 15 more to become the 19th player in program history to reach 1,000 career digs. Happel has already reached 1,000 career kills, and needs 81 more digs to become the 12th member of Liberty's 1,000/1,000 club. The last Lady Flame to reach 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs was Karyl Bacon (2007-10), who finished with 1,115 kills and 1,472 digs.
Last Five After posting a 1-14 record to open the 2013 campaign, Liberty has gone 4-1 in its last five matches. During the last five contests, Liberty is outhitting opponents, .251-.136.
Own the Net Freshman Nzea McQuitery ranks second with 1.12 blocks per set during Big South matches, while redshirt senior Kendle Rollins is seventh with 0.95 blocks per set overall. Rollins is ranked fifth in program history with 371 career blocks. Rollins needs 29 more blocks to become the 17th player in Big South history with 400 blocks. Jade Craycraft, with 270 career blocks, holds Liberty's record for most blocks by a primary setter.
Fire Away The Lady Flames are second in the Big South in both hitting percentage (.229) and opponents' hitting percentage (.163) during conference play. In league matches, Liberty's Kendle Rollins (.344) and Jade Craycraft (.343) are second and third, respectively, in the Big South in attack percentage.
Serving Up Aces This past weekend, Liberty averaged 1.83 aces per set in wins over Charleston Southern and Coastal Carolina. Lillie Happel and Gabrielle Shipe led the way with three aces apiece, while Kendle Rollins chipped in two aces. Liberty vs. Presbyterian College Conference co-leader Presbyterian College (7-15, 5-2 Big South) will play its first home match since Oct. 4, on Friday. The Blue Hose are 3-1 so far at the Templeton Center this season. Reigning Big South Defensive Player of the Week Mary Trimpe leads the Big South and ranks in the top 20 nationally in digs per set (5.62) and aces per set (0.48). Rachel Hall paces the Blue Hose with 2.77 kills per set, while Kelly Berryman has a team-best 74 blocks and Ashtin Frank averages 9.16 assists per set. First-year head coach Korrinn Burgess is in her second year as a collegiate head coach, after coaching Spartanburg Methodist to a 17-14 record in 2012. Liberty holds a 10-1 record in the all-time series against Presbyterian College, and the Lady Flames have won each of the last seven meetings. The Blue Hose posted their only win over Liberty on Nov. 8, 2008 in Clinton, S.C., a 3-2 victory. Last season, Liberty posted a pair of victories over the Blue Hose.

Irene Ojukwu (3.29 kills per set) ranks fourth in the conference in kills, while Rachel Lenz is ranked third in the Big South with 1.02 blocks per set. First-year head coach Bruce Atkinson is 144-52 in seven years as a collegiate coach, which includes three-year stints at Hawaii Hilo (2007-09) and Towson (2010-12). Liberty is 27-17 all-time against Winthrop, and has won the most recent three meetings. Starting in the 2001 season, Liberty (2001, 07-08, 11-12) and Winthrop (2002-06) have combined to win 10 out of the last 12 Big South Volleyball Championships, with each program claiming five titles during that span. The Lady Flames outhit Winthrop, .383-.308, during the teams' last meeting, a 3-0 Liberty sweep on Oct. 20, 2012 at the Vines Center. With that win, Liberty set a new program record with 19 straight conference home wins.
Tight Race Midway through the conference slate, the Big South standings are tightly packed, with one match separating the top six teams. Radford and Presbyterian College are tied for the league lead with 5-2 Big South records. Gardner-Webb is in third, at 4-2, while Liberty, Coastal Carolina and High Point are all tied for fourth at 4-3. With eight teams qualifying for the tournament, Winthrop (2-5) and Charleston Southern (0-7) are presently on the outside looking in.

MIL Spec WireMilitary specifications have come into some questioning over the last decade or so. Producers and consumers of various products that require military specifications wonder if they are really necessary. Through it all, military specifications have remained steadily in place and MIL-Spec wire continues to be a sought after wire product.
"MIL" is the abbreviation for military specifications for wire. "MIL-Spec" is used to help achieve standardization objectives by the U.S. Department of Defense. Hence, MIL-Spec wire is built in accordance with military specifications.
MIL-Spec wire and cable are suitable for demanding military electronic applications. Military wire may be used in high frequency electronic applications where high temperatures will probably be encountered. Military wire is specially designed for the harshest environments.
Because it is designed for extreme conditions, MIL-Spec wire can be used for an array of purposes.Some applications include: shielding and protective covering, airframe wire, point-to-point wiring, antennas, bus-bar, ground wire, and bonding moving parts. MIL-Spec wire works well in applications requiring high-reliability where physical and environmental demands exist. However, depending on the military specification, individual MIL-Spec wires will have certain applications for which they work best.
MIL-Spec wire is available in numerous styles, sizes, and conductors. Some types of military wire include 10603 Hook Up Wire, Braid Tinned Copper Wire, MIL-C-13486 Wire, MIL-W-5086 Wire, MIL-C-3432 Wire, MIL-W-16878, MIL-W-16878D Shielded PTFE Cables, MIL-C-27500, MIL-C-17 Coaxial Cable, MIL-W-22759 Wire and many more. Types vary in specific configuration and uses to meet the requirements intended by the consumer. For example, MIL-Spec wiring coated with PTFE has excellent, stable electrical characteristics with low power loss.
In the realm of MIL-Spec wiring, MIL-Spec connectors also play a part. Like MIL-Spec wires, connectors are designed to military specifications and are intended for military and aerospace applications. They can be used for an array of purposes depending on the military specification.
Many organizations and standards play a role in military wire and military specifications. Two major contributors zare NEMA and the QPL. NEMA develops technical standards and shapes public policy, where the QPL identifies materials and suppliers who are approved for use on certain federal or government projects.

Canon LBP460 Linux Driver
Subject description: Can this be adapted to Puppy?
A Linux driver for my Canon LBP460 laserprinter is available here:
While I've enjoyed using Puppy Linux 2.14 very reliably as an add-on to my Win98 system, there are some things I've not yet figured out.
Is there any way to install this driver into Puppy?
Would it need to be converted to a form compatible with Puppy?
If it is possible to get it going in Puppy then I'd be completely WinFree!

Being a n00bie I dont know the answers to your questions - but suspect they may be yes.
However until someone more knowledgeable advises, you may wish to consider a look at an alternative way of achieving a result.
This may or may not work, wont do any harm, will enhance your experience with Puppy and might even be fun.
If you are running 2.14 std issue alongside Win98 as a frugal install it is easy to make a backup copy of your save_file and tuck it away in a safe NewDir temporarily or just rename it or (belt & braces) do both.
Now your save_file is safe you can try a couple of alternative puppy's that may do the job.
!) 2.14r is a revisited and revised 214 and has probably more drivers included than any other puppy around so well worth a look.
2)TeenPup 2008 is another reworked and considerably enhanced 214 based puppy and again well worth a look - I suspect that when you see this it will make you want to flush 98 almost instantly.
3) Dingo4_alpha7 is a testing puppy but has the very latest canon, epsom, hp and other printer drivers available.
Hope the above helps and is of some interest - should at least be a fun something to try.
Best regards - Ray MK

Post subject: PUPPY Printer Driver options
Ray MK,
Thank you for the suggestions for a possible work-around.
With the exception of the LBP460 problem, PUPPY 2.14 has been so reliable I hadn't considered the possibility of an upgrade of this version.
I'll try your recommended procedure and come back with a report.

I've made a zip, of the file you linked to above. Try unzipping this and let us know whether it works or not. You'll need to have cups installed for it to work though. Extract the attached file to /.
The zip file contains the drivers for both the 660 & 460, but, not having either to test with, I'm unable to verify this works.

Post subject: CUPS and LBP460
Thank you Muggins,
I've downloaded the file you've offered and will see if I am able to install CUPS to try it out.
I'll try this before attempting the other options suggested by Ray MK.
If all goes well perhaps I can postpone upgrading to a newer version.

another possible option, if things don't work out using the method described in your link, is to use pakt's cups package, & the included .ppd file. Let us know how you go.

Post subject: LBP460 install progress update
Subject description: Is a manual installation of the files possible?
I've upgraded to Puppy 3.01 and ran the Puppy 4.1 upgrade so it appears at bootup I've got a little of both. In any case it works very well and boots up noticably faster (Frugal Install with Win98).
I've attempted to install the LBP460 driver (See Muggins post above) and CUPS reported success, but still no success in getting anything to the printer.
Where in Puppy's file system should I look to find if the .ppd has been installed?
If the .ppd file isn't in its proper location would manually copying to the proper folder to make the installation right?

the attached .zip, if extracted to /, will deposit Canon-LBP-460-lbp460.ppd & Canon-LBP-660-lbp660.ppd to directory /usr/share/cups/model.
If you run the CUPS printer wizard, and try adding a printer, do these two .ppd files show up as options?

Post subject: CUPS and the LBP460
When I run the Printer Wizard to add a printer I'm not able to connect to localhost:631 directly but am able to get there through
this page.
Then I'm able to do the on-line install process and select the appropriate .ppd file, LPT1, etc...
It finally reports that the install is complete, the printer is idle accepting jobs; so then I attempt to print a test page and the job fails.
The version of CUPS it reports is 1.2.11
The .ppd file is properly located at /usr/share/cups/model.
I'm wondering if anyone has successfully installed the LBP460 in Puppy and how they've gotten it to print.
Here I'm stuck.
Clearly, more research is in order...
I truly appreciate all the help you've provided. Many thanks!

ATLANTA (AP) — The clutch quarterback. The genius coach. The big-play defense.
The San Francisco 49ers are ready to start a new dynasty with a familiar formula.
NFC championship: 49ers 28, Falcons 24
Next stop, the Big Easy.
Colin Kaepernick and Frank Gore led San Francisco to a record comeback in the NFC championship game Sunday, overcoming an early 17-0 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons, 28-24, and send the 49ers to their first Super Bowl since 1995.
Gore scored a pair of touchdowns, including the winner with 8:23 remaining for San Francisco's first lead of the day, and the 49ers defense made it stand up. A fourth-down stop at the 10-yard line denied Atlanta another stirring comeback after blowing a big lead.
"Everybody does a little," 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said, "and it adds up to be a lot."
San Francisco (13-4-1) moves on to face Baltimore at New Orleans in two weeks, looking to join Pittsburgh as the only franchises with six Super Bowl titles. It will be a brother-vs.-brother matchup, too, since John Harbaugh coaches the Ravens.
Joe Montana led the 49ers to four Super Bowl wins and Steve Young took them to No. 5. It's up to Kaepernick and Co. to get No. 6.
"He just competes like a maniac all the time," said Harbaugh, whose much-debated decision to bench Alex Smith at midseason now looks like the best move of the year. "It's always the same when I'm looking in through the facemask."
The second-year quarterback, who runs like a track star, didn't get a chance to show off his touchdown celebration — flexing his right arm and kissing his bicep, a move that quickly became a social media sensation known as Kaepernicking.
But he shredded the Falcons through the air by completing 16 of 21 for 233 yards, including a 4-yard touchdown to Vernon Davis, and had them so worried about his running ability out of the spread option that Gore and LaMichael James had plenty of room.
Gore scored a pair of touchdowns, including the game winner with 8:23 remaining for San Francisco's first lead of the day. Davis scored the first TD for the 49ers on a 15-yard run.
"I take my hat off to Atlanta. They played hard. They've got a great team," Gore said. "But we fought, man. We fought and we deserved it."
The 49ers pulled off the biggest comeback victory in an NFC championship game, according to STATS. The previous NFC record was 13 points — Atlanta's victory over Minnesota in the 1999 title game, which sent the Falcons to what remains the only Super Bowl in franchise history.
In the AFC, the record is 18 points, when Indianapolis rallied past New England in 2007.
Harbaugh is hardly cool and collected like the 49ers' first Super Bowl-winning coach, Bill Walsh, but has pulled off a similar turnaround in San Francisco. The 49ers had eight straight years without a winning record before their new coach arrived from Stanford in 2011.
He immediately led San Francisco to the cusp of the Super Bowl, losing to the eventual champion New York Giants in overtime in last year's NFC title game, a bitter defeat at home set up by a fumbled return.
This time, the 49ers were the ones winning on the road to set up another celebration in the city by the bay, which is rapidly becoming the new Titletown USA. They'll try to follow the lead of the baseball Giants, who won the World Series in October.
"We've come full circle," said Denise DeBartolo York, part of the family that has owned the 49ers since their championship days, "and the dynasty will prevail."
Kaepernick guided San Francisco on a pair of second-half scoring drives that wiped out Atlanta's 24-14 lead at the break. Gore scored on a 5-yard run early in the third quarter, then sprinted in from 9 yards out for the winning score with 8:23 remaining after each team made crucial mistakes to ruin potential scoring drives.
On both of Gore's TDs, the Falcons had to worry about Kaepernick running it in himself. They barely even touched the running back on either play, and James scored pretty much the same way.
"I kind of figured that coming in and they showed that on film, so I assumed Frank and LaMichael were going to have a big day," Kaepernick said. "Frank ran hard today, and I can't say enough about him."
The top-seeded Falcons (14-4), in what appeared to be the final game for Hall of Famer-to-be Tony Gonzalez, tried to pull off another season-extending drive.
But, unlike the week before against Seattle, they needed a touchdown this time.
They came up 10 yards short.

The Maytag UKF8001 refrigerator water filter is NSF-certified to reduce cysts, particulates (Class I), lead, mercury, and more. (The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water.) While it effectively removes contaminants from your water and ice, this filter also lowers the taste and odor of chlorine while retaining beneficial fluoride.
For the highest quality water and ice, your refrigerator's water filter needs to be changed over a period of time as its effectiveness at cleaning the water is reduced. For optimal results, you should replace this refrigerator water filter every 6 months to ensure clean, safe drinking water and ice.
Your refrigerator will even remind you when to change its filter, turning on an indicator light found near the water dispenser. Changing the filter is easy–just locate the old filter, twist and turn it until it becomes loose, then pull the old filter out and replace with the new filter

Second ingredient is a named meat product.
Insufficient meat product in the food. Use of large amounts of low quality grains and filler. Fat of unidentifiable origin.
The main ingredient in the food is corn. It is a problematic grain that is difficult for dogs to digest and thought to be the cause of a great many allergy and yeast infection problems. Corn appears a second time in the ingredients, this time as gluten meal. The AAFCO definition of corn gluten meal is the dried residue from corn after the removal of the larger part of the starch and germ, and the separation of the bran by the process employed in the wet milling manufacture of corn starch or syrup, or by enzymatic treatment of the endosperm. In plain English, that which remains after all the nutritious bits have been removed
The first meat product is only second on the ingredient list. There is a further meat product 8th on the ingredient list (fish meal) but this is too far down to make up a substantive portion of the food.
Rice flour is a grain fragment and we consider this to be filler. Beet pulp is also filler and a controversial ingredient it is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.
Animal fat is a low quality ingredient, for which it is impossible to determine either source or quality. We prefer not to see the use of unidentifiable-source ingredients anywhere in dog food.
Note this food uses citric acid as a preservative and thus should not be pre-moistened prior to feeding (a bloat risk factor for large breed dogs).

Did Broncos make mistake in cutting RB Willis McGahee?
See ya, Willis McGahee. The Broncos cut him. Yes, the team sent its leading rusher of the past two seasons packing, weeks before training camp. Why do you think they call the NFL the Not For Long?
McGahee had to see this coming, and hinted as much when I talked to him earlier this week. Recent draft choices Montee Ball and Ronnie Hillman are the backs of the future in Denver. McGahee had the bad combination of being over 30 years and the owner of a $2.5 million salary. Worse, he was coming off injury. And skipped voluntary workouts. And wasn't always happy with his salary. You get the picture.
Will the Broncos regret releasing McGahee? Or would he have been a malcontent if not a starter? Listen to Lance Britton of Mile High Sports Radio and I discuss it here:
Are you sorry to see McGahee go? Or will he not be missed on the road to the Super Bowl?
Kick it with Kiz and Peter Burns by joining the discussion on Mile High Sports Radio Monday through Friday from 7-9 a.m. At 93.7 FM and 1510 AM.
Find Kiz on Twitter @MarkKiszla. And Peter Burns @PeterBurnsRadio.
