How to get there
If you don't fly to Alicante, you can get to Benidorm from within Spain by train or coach. There are 12 trains each day that make the two-hour journey from Valencia, eight trains from Barcelona, and 12 each day from Madrid. From Alicante, trains depart hourly to Benidorm. Several coach companies offer bus service from virtually every town in Spain and beyond, all of which stop at the central bus terminal on Calle Portugal. Travellers driving themselves can take the E-15 expressway, which runs along the length of the Costa Blanca.
It's very easy to get around Benidorm thanks to reliable, safe taxis and an efficient bus system. The train stations in the old town and in Finestrat can take you to Alicante or other outlying destinations. Taxi ranks are everywhere in Benidorm or you can call a company for a pickup. Bus routes are colour-coded for easy navigation and the modern buses are cheap and air-conditioned. Hiring a car is easy and inexpensive if you have a passport, driver's license and credit card.
Benidorm is easily and ideally viewed on foot ! The famous promenade stretches along the breathtaking beaches, and you are in danger of missing the narrow streets of the old town, if you're not walking. But, when your legs are tired from the previous night of partying or you want to go a little further out from central Benidorm, the buses are the best way of getting around.
The bus service here is very good, they are inexpensive and if you don't like to carry change a BONOBUS 20 costs €16,20 and can be purchased on board (groups can share). Single trips costs 90 cents anywhere on the main bus route. Most buses operate between 8am-11.30pm. All timetables and maps are available on the Llorente bus website. Although bus stops have particularly clear timetables with colour coded maps of all the routes.
So you can't find your way back to your hotel at 6.00am or you want a more direct service? The local taxis are white with a marine blue stripe and they run 24 hours. There are numerous taxi ranks dotted around, however you can easily hail one in the street. They are available if a green light is visible on the roof, or a 'Libre' sign is displayed in the passenger window (the numbers 1 2 3 indicate different tariffs according to the time of day/night). In general a journey costs about €5-8 within central Benidorm.
The narrow gauge railway (FGV) runs north from Benidorm to Denia and south to Campello and is a good way to travel and admire the beautiful coastline. Alicante is linked by a coastal TRAM from Campello. Trains also stop at the big clubs on the outskirts of Benidorm and during July and August run 24 hours. The Station is a 15 minute walk or you can take buses 1 or 2 north, from the old town. Trains run from approximately 6.30am-9.30pm from September-June and are particularly convenient if you are staying outside Benidorm itself.
Car Hire
If you are going on holiday to Benidorm and you've booked your flights to either Murcia, Alicante or Valencia, the next thing to look into would be car rental for Benidorm.
Benidorm is around an hours drive from any of the three major airports. If you are going to Benidorm on a package holiday then your airport transfers to Benidorm will be included. If you are travelling independently and you have booked a hotel, apartment or a villa in Benidorm, you can get there by taxi, shuttle bus or private minibus.
So you don't necessarily have to get car rental Benidorm, although renting a car is very inexpensive, especially if you choose a budget make and model model. The advantage is that you then have a car for the rest of your stay so you can get around more easily and you can explore the many tourist attractions of the Costa Blanca.
Car rental in Benidorm is handy for easily getting to the theme parks of which there are five. Terra Mitica and Terra Natura are located on the hill-sides of Benidorm. Terra Mitica is an ancient world theme park with rides and roller coasters and live entertainment. Terra Natura is an animal park divided into four zones also with entertaining shows. Included in Terra Natura is a water park as well called Aqua Natura. To be able to make the most of your time at the theme parks makes car rental Benidorm essential.
If you were flying into Alicante airport and you have already arranged your car rental then just before you enter the arrivals hall you will see the desks of the major car rental companies. Most will give you just a bit of petrol and ask you to bring back the car empty while other car rental companies will give you cars fully tanked up and expect you to bring them back the same way.
Perhaps you just want to get a transfer from the airport to Benidorm and then pick up your car rental locally when you are not so tired and stressed.
Most of the car rental companies in Benidorm have their offices located in the Avenida del Mediterraneo. There you will find Europcar with the telephone number 965 854 017, Centauro Rent a Car with the telephone number 966 830 707. Another popular Spanish car rental company to look out for is Solmar Car Hire. The telephone number for Sol Mar in Benidorm 966 813 222 or you can visit their website on to receive your quote.
There are many multinational car rental companies to book car rental and car hire for Benidorm through like Easy Car which is part of the EasyJet company.

Teenagers who do not drink, smoke or live on junk food tend to be much happier than their unhealthy counterparts, a study has found.
Researchers at the University of Exeter looked at data on 5,000 young people, aged ten to 15, who took part in the Understanding Society study.
They found that those who never drank alcohol tended to be four to six times more likely to have high levels of happiness than those who drank.
Young people who smoked were five times less likely to have high levels of happiness than non-smokers, and regular exercise was also linked with happiness.
And a high intake of fruit and vegetables and low intake of crisps, sweets and fizzy drinks were linked with happiness.
Study co-author Dr Cara Booker said: 'Helping young people to reduce damaging health choices as they start making independent decisions is important in order to reduce the number of adults at risk from chronic disease because of their low wellbeing and poor health-related behaviours.'
NHS figures indicate that schoolchildren spend an average of 117 minutes per week doing physical education at school, while just 19 per cent of five to 15-year-old boys and 20 per cent of girls eat the recommended amount of fruit and vegetables.

Call quality issues
From VoIP.ms Wiki
|Article en Français
|Artículo en Español
There are different factors that could potentially affect the quality of your calls. There are several types of sound issues and these can be related to different causes. We will try to mention here some suggestions, so we can identify which type of issue we are experiencing and what things we need to check to start diagnosing on our own.
Reboot your device
Even if you can browse the internet without any issues and if you think the Internet is working fine, it is possible that something in the network is affecting the calls. The first thing that always needs to be tested is to reboot the ATA device and Router, this way we refresh the connection.
Choose a server
A good recommendation is to send a ping to all the available servers, this way you can verify the latency and pick the best option available for your network. (This is just a slight introduction, please refer to our article Choosing Server for more information.
Softphone test
To rule out if your ATA Device or PBX is the source of the issue, you can do a test with a simple software that can be used for the same purpose (make calls).
How to test using Softphones?
- Create a sub account, this way you do not have to alter the settings on your ATA device for the moment.
- Register the softphone using the sub account credentials and make a call, if the issue is the same, the problem can be in our network, if not, then we can start pointing to your device.
- ZoIPer and X-Lite are recommended by the VoIP.ms staff as they are easy to configure. We also recommend Jitsi, with this softphone you can call the Echo test (4443), put the call on pause and verify the jitter and packet loss values. This can be more reliable then sending a ping because the ping may not be prioritized.
Choppy/Robotic voice
Network traffic
One of the main reasons sound issues may occur is based on the traffic or congestion on the network. First thing to try is check if the issue can be duplicated by making an internal call with the provider, for example using an Echo test application (by dialing 4443) or a voicemail.
Some symptoms that can be present because of the lack of bandwidth available:
- Audio cutting in and out (choppy).
- Voice sounding robotic, like if you were talking under water.
- Audio slowing down or speeding up intermittently during the call.
To test if the bandwidth is affecting our calls:
- Disconnect all the devices from the network
- Disable wireless to make sure no one else is using your internet.
- If your router has QoS, disable it.
- If you were using software to download stuff from Internet (e.g. Torrents) wait a few minutes for this traffic to subside.
After following all these suggestions, use a single device and try to make a call If the audio quality is fine, you are probably dealing with lack of bandwidth, and in this case the use of QoS is recommended ( be certain the set up is well done).
Test codecs
Test with all the codecs g711u, g729 and GSM. Sometimes the issues with the audio can be related with the codecs in use, either because the codec we are using is consuming too much bandwidth for our connection, there is also a chance the device we are using is not supporting this codec very well or it works better with a different one. In any case, this test can also help in the diagnostic.
- Check in your Account or sub account settings, which codec you are allowing, you can test allowing one by one, until you get the best result. If using codecs such as G.711 you may try with a lower bitrate codec such as G729a or GSM (if they are supported by your device/software/system).
Check your ISP
After following these suggestions and you still experience sound issues, you may consider contacting your ISP (Internet provider) just to confirm the issue is not related with them.
Common ISP-related issues include:
- Shared connections. Your ISP advertises "up to" some particular speed, but guarantees absolutely nothing as the minimum. Odds are, those megabits per second are shared with other subscribers of the same ISP so when they go online, your connection slows down unpredictably. Your service works very well... except in peak hours when everyone is online, then suddenly "you're breaking up" or experiencing connection problems.
- Asymmetric connections. You have "up to" a few megabits of what your ISP insists is "blazingly fast" speed for downloads, but they forgot to mention that your upload speed is a tenth that figure or worse. Pick up the 'phone and you hear the other party easily, but they say "you're breaking up" and ask you to constantly repeat things.
- Throttling. Sometimes, an ISP knows they've oversold their bandwidth and, if all of their subscribers go online at once, they will have problems handling large downloads. As a means of damage control, they start playing favorites. Hopefully, they put time-sensitive traffic first (such as voip.ms, which only needs about 80 kilobits per second - and not megabits - for each call) and less time-sensitive downloads last, but there is a risk: some of these schemes allocate bandwidth in a sporadic manner, so that a connection is fast for one second and breaking up the next. That's not good for Internet telephone calls of any kind.
If you have applications which purport to send voice free to other users of the same Internet app (Netmeeting, webcam, Skype...) try an Internet-to-Internet call during the time periods when the problems are at their worst. If your webcam audio breaks up too, the problem might not be VoIP but your ISP. Running Internet "speed test" applications to see if the results are varying widely between attempts may also be very telling.
This isn't a guarantee that your ISP will own up to the issues, let alone fix them, but if your ISP is the problem no voice apps will work.
Tones during calls
Another issue related with the quality during your calls, is when you can hear beep tones during a call, like if someone is pressing a button on the phone or trying to dial. This is usually known as "talk-off" and the device is interpreting the voice as a DTMF digit.
Suggestions to follow:
- Upgrade the firmware in your device, sometimes these bugs are fixed in recent versions.
- Change your DTMF Tx Method to InBand (you have to change this setting in your device and in your account or sub account settings). Test if the DTMF tones are working fine, dial 4747 for this test.
- If Inband doesn't work for you, test with DTMF Process INFO and DTMF Process AVT to No, if the options are available in the device.
- Another alternative you can do: DTMF Tx Method: AVT, DTMF Tx Mode: Strict, DTMF TX Strict Hold Off time: 70.
Echo during calls
We have different factors that can cause Echo during the calls, we will review some suggestions to work with:
- Check the volume on the phone is not too loud, it is possible the phone is causing the issue.
- Make a call dialing 4443 for echo test and see if you can reproduce the same situation with this test.
- Again, check the firmware on the device, usually this can help to reduce the echo if you do not have the latest firmware.
- The default gain on some devices, is typically too high and can cause echo. For instance on Cisco PAP devices, you can adjust the FXS Port Input Gain and FXS Port Output Gain, one at a time, in increments of three. You can test using -1 and -11.
- Note: Input Gain = how you sound to the other party. Output Gain = how the other party sounds to you.
- If the above does not solve your issue, and you have a Linksys device, verify that Echo Canc Enable, Echo Canc Adapt Enable, and Echo Supp Enable are set to Yes. (These are default settings.)
- If you use laptop (integrated mic/speakers), echo can be caused by microphone catching noise from speakers. Try lowering MIC Input sensitivity. Using a headset instead of the microphone and speakers will greatly reduce the amount of noise heard by the other party.
One-Way Audio
You can hear the other party but they can not hear you, and vice-versa. When a situation like this is present, it is know as "one-way audio" and usually it is related with the NAT. The primary cause for one way audio is the NAT enabled device hiding the topology of the customers network. Many legacy devices do not have a built in ALG (Application Layer Gateway), which changes the headers of the VoIP packets (either SIP or MGCP) to allow the customer to preserve their private network topology and allow them to use VoIP service. One-way audio is caused when one side of the RTP stream is not setup or terminated correctly. RTP is the UDP media stream that carries the audio of a phone call on VoIP. Let's try with the following suggestions:
- From the account or sub account settings, select always NAT=Yes (this is the option recommended by VoIP.ms).
- Try using each codec in a separate way, starting with G711u codec only, from the customer portal > Main menu > Account settings > Advanced tab > allowed codecs.
- Only as a test, place the device in DMZ to test if the issue is related with the NAT. do not leave the device in DMZ after finishing troubleshooting.
- Is your router appropriate for VoIP? If you have a router and a modem, try to bypass the router to verify if the issue gets duplicated.
- If your router includes a SIP ALG and/or SPI Firewall setting please ensure that it is disabled. That setting is common in D-Link and Netgear routers. If this does not help make sure you are using the most recent firmware version for your device.
- You can see what port is being used for audio by looking at the UDP port 5060 traffic. The RTP traffic will typically be in the UDP port range 10000-20000.
- Try to use a Softphones like Zoiper and X-lite to try and duplicate the issue, there are free version.
- Reset your device. In some cases this action resolves the issue.
- If you have an ATA device (Linksys) you can work on the following settings:
Under SIP page.
- RTP Packet Size: 0.020
- G729a Codec Name: G729
- G729b Codec Name: G729
Under the Line page.
- NAT Mapping Enable: Yes
- NAT Keep Alive Enable: Yes
- Preferred Codec: G711u
- Use Pref Codec Only: No
Contact your provider
Could it be the case my quality issue resides on the VoIP provider? Yes, it is possible. Some things we can check and specify to provider when opening the ticket are:
- Are the sound issues present only with incoming calls or only with the outgoing calls, or both? Are the sound issues present while dialing 4443 to reach echo test?
- If issues are present only when calling certain areas or specific countries.(please provide the number(s) when opening the ticket)
- If the issue are happening only with the incoming calls, then please route your DID to echo test, and call it from an external provider (preferably landline) and check if the issues appear when doing this test.
- If you are unable to receive incoming calls on one DID, do the DID's call attempts appear on the Call Detail Records? If not, the DID may be broken at an upstream provider level - especially if other-city DIDs on the same account and same telephone handset are working normally.
- For Canada, if the issue is present with outgoing calls only, test using the different options for Routing (value or premium). If the sound issue happens with one route and not with the other, then you need to contact the provider.

New York, United States | AFP |
An attack that killed 39 revelers in an Istanbul nightclub overshadowed New Year celebrations around the world to ring in 2017.
The massacre stoked fears that large crowds of people cramming into major cities could present a target for violent extremists.
Festivities in New York, where a crowd estimated at nearly a million people packed into Times Square, apparently went off without a hitch, however. Security was very tight.
Revelers screamed with glee and couples kissed at the raucous instant when the traditional ball dropped at the Big Apple's ionic crossroads. Fireworks lit up the sky and the voice of Frank Sinatra singing "New York, New York" rang out.
President-elect Donald Trump sent his best wishes to the American people.
"Looking forward to a wonderful & prosperous 2017 as we work together to #MAGA," Trump tweeted at the stroke of midnight.
Following truck attacks in Berlin during Christmas and in Nice over the summer, New York deployed some 7,000 police and dozens of garbage trucks to prevent vehicles from crushing the crowd.
"It's the best place in the world to be on New Year's Eve," said Alma Alanis, a lawyer from Mexico with her companion, Eduardo Chavarria. They arrived at midday and spent hours waiting for the big moment.
Sydney kicked off celebrations attended by some 1.5 million people with a spectacular fireworks display that lit up its iconic harbor.
Crowds in Hong Kong also flocked to the waterfront to watch fireworks explode over Victoria Harbour, while in Japan thousands packed the streets of Tokyo to release balloons into the air.
Celebrations swung into Europe with the night sky over Moscow's Red Square literally painted red by the fireworks.
And around half a million people thronged Paris's famous Champs-Elysees, where the Arc de Triomphe was lit up with a colourful countdown to 2017 and the word "welcome" in dozens of languages.
Under the watchful eye of some 2,000 military police, around two million people watched a fireworks display on Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach that while impressive was shortened this year due to a severe economic crisis.
The raucous celebrations drew to an end a year of political shocks, from Britain's vote to leave the European Union to the election of maverick leaders like Trump in the United States.
It has also been a year of celebrity deaths from David Bowie to Prince and Mohammed Ali.
2016 was also a year of bloodshed and misery that has seen the war in Syria, Europe's migrant crisis and numerous terror attacks dominate the headlines.
– 'Tonight is about fun' –
The violence continued on Saturday, with twin bomb blasts killing at least 27 in a busy market area in central Baghdad.
But this did not stop people from flooding the streets of the Iraqi capital to celebrate and families in evening dress headed to swanky hotels for parties.
Fadhel al-Araji, a 21-year-old from the Sadr City neighborhood, already had his beer in the back of his car.
"Tonight is about fun… Everybody can do what they want and nobody cares. We need a night like this, Iraq needs it," he said, behind the wheel of his beat-up Toyota.
In the shattered Syrian city of Aleppo, 20-year-old student Abdel Wahab Qabbani was also determined to see in 2017 in a positive frame of mind.
"The last two years, I didn't go out for New Year. This time, I'm going to party," he said.
The Gulf emirate of Dubai marked the New Year with its usual gigantic pyrotechnics off the world's highest skyscraper, Burj Khalifa, as well as other landmarks.
This year's celebration passed without problems, unlike last year when a fierce blaze broke out at a nearby tower.
– 'Concrete blocks' –
But revelers did have to contend with reinforced security measures and a heightened police presence.
There were some 2,000 extra officers in Sydney after a man was arrested for allegedly making online threats against the celebrations and garbage trucks were deployed to block any attempt to plow a vehicle into the crowd.
Following the deadly attack on a Berlin Christmas market on December 19, the German capital beefed up security, deploying extra police, some armed with machine guns.
However, visitors seemed undeterred by recent events as they gathered under a freezing Berlin sky for a series of concerts ahead of a large midnight fireworks display in the area.
Paris saw fireworks again, after muted 2015 celebrations following the massacre of 130 people by jihadists in the French capital.
Nearly 100,000 police, gendarmes and soldiers were deployed across France.
In London, more than 100,000 people lined the banks of the River Thames to watch a spectacular 12-minute fireworks display set to a soundtrack featuring music by Bowie and Prince.
Mayor Sadiq Khan proclaimed that despite the vote for Brexit, "London is open to the world."
An estimated 3,000 police, including armed officers, were deployed on the streets.
Nevertheless, revelers at least got one extra second to enjoy the night's festivities.
At the stroke of midnight, there was a "leap second" decreed by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service to allow astronomical time to catch up with atomic clocks that have called the hour since 1967.

Why visit the Taj Mahal now?
The Taj Mahal is India's most iconic monument. Despite being to India well over twenty times, it is only recently I've been to Agra. I was there on a longer trip, writing, among other things, about the hill station of Shimla for a women's magazine.
Preserving an icon
The Taj Mahal monument has been renovated over recent years; the pollution was damaging the delicate white marble. The only way to clean it is to use a process that is non-abrasive and non-corrosive. In effect, the Taj Mahal is being given a face pack. Natural mud (fuller's earth) is slathered on the surfaces, covered with plastic sheets to encourage drying, and then when peeled away, the years of dirt and grime is removed with the mud. Distilled water is gently applied to wash the surface and it is left to air dry. This laborious process is almost complete, with only the dome remaining. This will be all done by the end of 2108. When we visited in September 2017, no scaffolding was visible.
Getting there from Delhi
The motorway to Agra from Delhi has been improved over the last year or so.
A five hour journey is now around three, depending how many cows are on the highway.
So I'm glad I waited. It's an amazing experience. And these are some the very few photos I have ever taken before 6am.
Why is it here?
The monument was completed in 1648 and built by Shah Jahan, in memory of his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died in childbirth. The UNESCO site, one of the seven wonders of the world, is visited by around 7 million people a year, around 200,000 of them from overseas.
When can you visit?
The Taj Mahal is a place of Muslim prayer and closed on Friday. On other days, it's open to visitors from daybreak to dusk. There are two main entrances; we used the East gate as it was nearest to our hotel. Having arranged for your hotel to get you tickets, you queue here from around 5.45am until sunrise. We were about half an hour in the queue. Airport-like security will confiscate any 'banned' items – all sweets and food and many other things (it seems to vary from day to day), so just take your camera and wallet and leave everything else back in your hotel room. Your entrance fee includes plastic overslippers for your shoes for going in the monument and a bottle of water.
What's it like?
Due to pollution concerns, no traffic is now allowed near the monument or within 500 metres of it. Getting right up, one has to travel by a complimentary electric bus service or walk. (It's not far but the heat gets to you.)
When all the formalities are over and you finally walk along a wide brick passageway and get to see that iconic sight that you know so well – it really does impress. Agra is busy and noisy, like so many Indian cities, but in this space, it's quiet and still, almost eerily so. The grounds are fairly large and there are lawns surrounded by pathways, trees and fountains.
So it's likely to be fairly busy, but on an early morning in September, it wasn't so bad, especially away from the main attraction. We had a guide to tell us about the history, but you can find out most information online, and I like to wander around on my own. You can also get your own tickets, but there is lots of red tape, so I'd let your hotel or travel agent organise everything for you, including transport. You need to cover your shoes to go in the mausoleum. I found this bit disappointing. It was very dark and I just remember two tombs that were – well, tomb-like.
Outside, you can wander around the extensive grounds and take lots of pictures. I was fascinated with the birdlife. We saw parrots, egrets, an eagle and even two love birds on a tree branch.
I really enjoyed my visit. You should also go to the Agra Fort where there are more photo opportunities and great views of the Taj Mahal from across the river.
I stayed at the ITC Mughal, Agra; highly recommended. ITC is a great, socially responsible hotel brand. Outdoor and indoor pool, very good spa and excellent restaurant. Maybe a white chocolate model of the Taj Mahal will sway you?

Residential study is study that takes place on a campus with other learners in a face-to-face environment. This is the optimal way to learn abstract cognitive enablers, but because of the cost, it may be out of reach for many learners who want to study with Socelor.
This list of topics is just the beginning and will be shaped by the learners and their interests as Socelor grows. The topics are based on problems that we need to address and the list is currently limited to global problems.
The only topic that you are required to study is The Science of Learning. This topic will be the first topic you study so that you can gain an understanding as to why Socelor is designed the way it is. We recommend that you study The Science of Learning as a module so that you can gain an understanding prior to making a substantial commitment.
The topics listed below are a list of possible topics and may not ever be studied. The Socelor learning model is driven by the learners, and it is hoped that learners will suggest topics of their own interest, and together we will look for others who might want to study the same topics – either global problems or local problems.
Each ten-week study session is $2,500 CAD for residential study. Information about financing your studies can be found here.
Science of Learning (required)
The Science of Learning is about the scientific principles that underlie how we learn and how these principles work (or not) in education. The aim if this module is for you to understand why the Socelor method is designed the way it is and why it is so effective for your learning.
Regardless of your station or circumstances, this module would be an eye-opener as you find out just how far away education is from what the evidence tells us about how people actually learn – and I don't tell you anything (because of how the Socelor method of learning works) you find out for yourself.
Global Climate Change
Studying climate change and the effects it will have on our society. In addition, understanding how and why climate change denial works is a possible topic (it is up to you).
Global Poverty and Hunger
Possible avenues of study – along with anything else that you want to pursue:
- How does poverty and hunger effect individuals or society
- Why does it exist
- What solutions might be employed to alleviate this
The how's, why's and wherefores of this pervasive problem along with possible solutions.
Roots of International Conflict
International conflicts have plagued society from the beginning. How do these conflicts and what can we do to stop them.
Social Cognition
How do people interact with each other in society and understanding the thinking that underlies individuals interactions within society. These interactions range from addictive behaviour to sexual assault and everything in between.

Iran, Russia and the United States: The New Middle EastAug 12th, 2017 | By Dr. Jim Eckman | Category: Featured Issues, Politics & Current Events
The civil war in Syria is entering a new phase, one fraught with significant implications for the Middle East, for Israel and for the United States. In the words of columnist Charles Krauthammer, ?The great Muslim civil war, centered in Syria, is approaching its post-Islamic State phase. It?s the end of the beginning. The parties are maneuvering to shape what comes next.? ISIS is disappearing as an independent, organized state within the Middle East. Its threat as a terrorist organization remains viable, but the caliphate declared by Baghdadi is dead! The current fighting is about who inherits the sections of Syria and Iraq that ISIS controlled. What is now occurring within the Middle East is a Shiite-Sunni war for regional hegemony.
- ?Iran (which is non-Arab) leads the Shiite side, attended by its Arab auxiliaries?Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Shiite militias in Iraq and the highly penetrated government of Iraq, and Assad?s Alawite regime.? This is the now famous Shiite Crescent that stretches from Iran through Iraq, Syria and Lebanon to the Mediterranean. As Iran consolidates control of this Crescent, it gives the Persians (aka Iranians) a Mediterranean access that it has not had in 2,300 years! The patronage and protection for this Shiite Crescent is Russia, which supplies the Crescent with cash, weapons and, since 2015, air cover from its new bases in Syria?a dream of Russian tsars Peter the Great and Catherine the Great now realized!!!
- On the other side of this Muslim civil war are the Sunnis led by Saudi Arabia, the Persian Gulf States, Egypt and Jordan. The patron and (historic) protector of this alliance is the United States. President Obama had disengaged from playing an active role in this alliance, but under President Trump, the US has re-engaged.
What is the Shiite Crescent doing in the Middle East? As ISIS is losing its hold in Syria and Iraq, Iranian-controlled militias are taking control of critical roads and other strategic assets in western Iraq and eastern Syria with the goal of moving men and guns to proxy forces in Syria and Lebanon?a significant existential threat to Israel. In the battle for control of Iraq, Iran has won and the US has lost. As New York Times reporter, Tim Arango, demonstrates, ?Iran never lost sight of its mission: to dominate its neighbor so thoroughly that Iraq could never again endanger it militarily and to use the country to effectively control a corridor from Tehran to the Mediterranean.? Krauthammer: The Iranian-Russian goal is ?a unified Syria under Assad, the ever more pliant client of Iran and Russia; Hezbollah, tip of the Iranian spear, dominant in Lebanon; Iran, the regional arbiter; and Russia, with its Syrian bases, the outside hegemon.?
In light of this devastating development in the Middle East of this emerging Shiite Crescent, what should the policy of the US be? President Trump seems to have three rather vague aims when it comes to this volatile region: destroy ISIS, roll back Iran?s growing power and reduce America?s involvement in the Middle East. As The Economist correctly observes, ?These are inconsistent, because sustained diplomatic and military engagement will be needed both to prevent a new ISIS rising from the ashes of the old and also to contain Iran, which is using its proxies and its own forces dotted around the region to extend its influence.? John Bolton, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, makes a convincing argument that the US must articulate a rather clear objective of ?pushing back these Iranian and Russian gains? which are articulated above. Why? [1] The Sunni governments of Saudi Arabia, for example, will never accept the hegemony of Iran in the Middle East. It has declared its willingness to challenge Iran, as it is now doing in Yemen, and as it has demonstrated in its sanctions against Qatar for its pro-Iranian demeanor. Saudi Arabia has also declared its willingness to pursue nuclear weapons in light of Iran?s nuclear weapons program, which Obama?s agreement did not end but only postponed. Chaos and disorder in the Middle East will result. [2] Russia?s interference in this region critically threatens the interests of the US, Israel and other Sunni governments in the region. ?Both Iran and the Assad regime remain terror-sponsoring states, only now they are committing their violence under Russia?s protective umbrella. There is no reason for the US to pursue a strategy that enhances Russia?s influence or that of its surrogates.? This reality is of particular concern in light of President Trump?s recent cut-off of all aid to America?s proxies in the Syrian civil war. As one administration official argued, ?Putin won in Syria.? On a larger scale in both the Middle East and in Eastern Europe, columnist Michael Gerson argues, Russia ?has employed a sophisticated mix of conventional operations and cyber-operations to annex territory and destabilize governments. It has systematically encouraged far-right, nationalist leaders and supported pro-Russian, anti-democratic parties across Europe. It is trying to delegitimize democratic processes on the theory that turbulence in the West is good for a rising East. This is a strategy that allows Russia to punch above its strategic weight, especially since Trump has chosen to abdicate the United States? natural role in opposition.?
What does all of this mean? How can we sort through the complexities of the Middle East and beyond? Due to the loss of US influence in the Middle East under President Obama and due to the utter confusion and chaos of the Trump administration, the US is no longer feared; indeed, it is increasingly becoming irrelevant. This can be turned around if President Trump begins to end his administration?s chaos and begins to articulate a coherent foreign policy. But it will take concerted, unified efforts for America to reassert its historic leadership in the Middle East. This new reality in the Middle East has caused me to think biblically about this region. The prophetic Scriptures in Daniel chapters 9 and 11-12 and in Revelation 12-14 speak of powers to the north and to the immediate east of Israel. [?Gog and Magog? may refer to these geographic areas as well.] A resurgent Russia under Putin and a resurgent Persia under Iran fit this description perfectly. Furthermore, as one studies prophetic Scripture, one struggles to find any reliable section that even remotely refers to the Western Hemisphere, specifically to North America. Is it possible that America?s withdrawal from the world under Donald Trump could be the reason? The world order put together by the United States after World War II is coming apart. Under Trump, the US is clearly withdrawing from the economic and political institutions of that order. Who is filling that vacuum created by US withdrawal? In the East it is clearly China. In the Middle East it is clearly Russia and Iran. We live in very dangerous times such that many are now beginning to speak of a ?post-American world.? Since 1945, the US has been the arbiter of a ?rules-based? world order. It has chosen to no longer fulfill that role. There is no greater illustration of that than in the Middle East.

Smokehouse Products Big Chief Top Load Smoker Review
- Affordable yet durable
- Solid aluminum body for outdoor use
- Easy to use and clean
- Fixed heating element for best performance
- Free recipes included with the unit
- No water pan
- Takes a lot of time to cook
- Only for outdoor use
This smoker is quite good considering its price. If you're a fan of smoked meat and delicious meals, this is the perfect thing for you.
Companies often tend to delude their potential clients with false advertising and redundant praising. Well, it's not the case with this electric smoker. It does exactly what is promised in the advertisements. If you're planning to buy an electric smoker, don't rush with the purchase.
Instead, read these reviews thoroughly and try to find the best suiting smoker for yourself. This way you'll avoid overpaying or buying a product with features you might not need at all.
We're here to give you an insight in some of the features this product has to offer. We'll try to help you make the right choice this way. Whether you're a professional or an amateur, it doesn't matter; your meat will come out delicious out of this smoker.
The best thing about this thing is its quality. It's very well-made, durable, and compact. Also, it's pretty straightforward and easy to use. You don't have to be an expert to use this thing; anyone can do it, and it takes just a few minutes to get a hold of it.
The Features
No Heat Loss
The first thing this unit thrives in is keeping the temperature. There is little to no heat loss, and it's well-insulated. Instead of hassling with temperature levels by yourself, this smoker will do it for you. The consistency is quite important for a good-quality electric smoker. If the temperatures aren't consistent and there are many sudden drops in temperature, the meat may not cook well. So, you won't have any issues whatsoever when it comes to heat loss and maintaining the temperature.
Huge Capacity
The other thing that's pretty neat with this smoker is its vast cooking space. There's a lot of cooking space in this smoker; you can smoke up to 25 pounds of meat. If you have a large family or you're planning a weekend with friends, this smoker will cook enough meat to feed all of them. Once your friends and family taste the meat you've smoked in this unit, they won't believe how delicious it is. That's the main thing here; you don't have to be a chef to smoke delicious meat.
Dishwasher Safe Drip Pan
The drip pan is dishwasher safe. Although it's not a massive advantage, it comes in handy. If you're lazy or you don't like to wash the dishes, you can put it in the dishwasher, and that's it.
This smoker comes with four chrome plated racks. They can be adjusted or removed entirely if you, for example, need more cooking space.
Front Loading System
It has a front loading system which allows you to load meat with ease instead of hassling with it.
The Benefits and Tips
- The obvious benefit is the vast cooking space. As we said, Big Chief Top Load Smoker is perfect for large gatherings or barbecue parties with friends. Also, you can cook and smoke any meat you want. In fact, Smokehouse says that you can smoke up to 50 pounds of fish. Some of the clients tried to smoke 50 pounds of salmon, and it came out perfectly smoked. So, we can safely say it's true.
- Its heating element operates at 165 degrees Fahrenheit. It has no issues with maintaining the optimal cooking temperature, and that's one of the important parameters.
- Also, the price is more than good. It's quite affordable with the price of around a hundred dollars. Considering the quality of this product, it's a bargain.
- Because this smoker only has one temperature setting, it's better for slow smoking rather than cooking. If you're looking to make some beef jerky or smoked fish, this is the thing you're looking for. Because of its firm and solid design, this unit can withstand rough conditions.
- It's also pretty lightweight, so it's easy to move it around if you ever decide to do so.
- That said, this unit also has some minor flaws. For example, the lack of temperature control can be a burden sometimes. Although it's not a deal breaker, it would come in handy if it had temperature control.
- The other downside is that it's not recommended for large chunks of meat. Instead of putting a huge piece of meat in it, cut it down to smaller pieces, and that will allow the smoke to penetrate the meat in an even manner. And we all know the most important thing for smoked meat is to be smoked evenly.
- The housing is made of embossed aluminum, and it's only for outdoor use. Do not use it indoors.
- The interior parts are pretty easy to clean. There are no unreachable spots or corners; you can clean it in a matter of minutes. Make sure you maintain it on a regular basis to prevent the fat, oil, and grease from accumulating. It's better to prevent this from happening instead of dealing with it when it happens.
- Also, we advise using the non-stick cooking spray for even easier cleaning. If you find any grease on the racks and it's tough to clean, there is a way of getting rid of it with ease. Put the racks in your kitchen oven and set it on high temperature. Kitchen oven can warm up to 900 degrees which is more than enough heat for fat to melt. After that, wash it down with water.
The Conclusion
This is a unit for smoking meat. Don't expect it to have amazing cooking abilities because it has no temperature control and that could jeopardize the doneness of the meat. On the other hand, if you're interested in smoking beef, chicken, fish, or whatever, this is the perfect thing for you.
It will be a great accessory for your front porch or your yard. It's easy to clean but remember to stay consistent. This smoker can last for years with proper maintenance. Overall, it's a quality and a compact unit, excellent for smoking, not very good for cooking.

Garry Todd – Time Goes On feat. Nat Page

- 30.11.2015
- Cover:

- Genre:
- House / Deep House + Electronic + UVP
"Club music that makes you wanna dance" – Garry Todd's description of his art is as simple as that. And he's right: it doesn't mess about, it goes straight for your motor controls, and it's really making waves on the club scene. We could also add that it's in the house domain, it doesn't cater to any clichés, and it has a certain twist that points to a natural-born talent. But who is this Garry Todd? He has a label, called Contemporary Scarecrow. It serves as his platform for both music and fashion. As a teenager he danced to sets from Masters At Work. Six years ago, having caught the house and techno bug and feeling the longing for an endless summer, he began a nomadic existence between Australia, Ibiza and his home in the UK. Making notable strides down under, he became a central figure as a DJ, producer and promoter in the nascent club scene in and around Sydney. In his own productions he delicately and subtly explores the house genre. His recent debut album "Nora Lilian" is just bursting with unique ideas – prepared on the TR-909, a Roland Juno-60 synth and supported with vocals from a few friends.
"Time Goes On" marks the first EP release from the album. The title track dances around the enchantingly presented voice of Nat Page and uses stirring claps and a frenzied synth line to bring it to the clubs – the true destination of this magic number. With "Go Green" – a track not included on the album – the globetrotter serves up charming froggy basslines and rasping acid hi-hats that ultimately lead to an ethereal, beatless synth texture. The EP then gets a special ingredient – a whole side of the vinyl is allocated to one of the stand-out cuts from the album, "Anniversary Track", which Garry Todd extends to 13 minutes of epic, psychedelic deepness, without leaving any of the suspense behind. "I am doing something I love, and that I am grateful for," he says of his work. This gratitude and love can be felt in every beat, every chord, every melody. And he can be sure that it's reciprocated – deeply and sincerely!

Since we don't have family close by and we don't use baby sitters this is something that has worked for us. What we do is alternate with Addi and Emmi. Some days I take Addi out and some days Spencer takes her. This usually works also when we want to go watch a movie and we can't all go because Emmi is still a little too young. We haven't tried taking her yet but I have a feeling she wont last long. So this is one of the main reasons we split it up like this.
Some of the benefits of dating your kids are that these one-on-one times can really open up lines of communication between your kids and yourself. I want both my daughters to be able to come to me with anything. Dating our children should build strong relationships if done right. It can also benefit our children with their relationships and friendships as they grow up. If you work on talking to your children now, it will make it easier to talk to each other in the long run, when it is necessary. To me there is something very special with going on dates with my girls. It doesn't really matter what we do. As long as it always ends with them knowing how much I love them.
We try to do these as often as we can. We usually know when "it's time" for some mommy and me time or daddy and me time. See what works for you and your family. Start with once a month and see if you can work in some more at a time. Ask your children what they want to do, and go with it. What's important is that they feel like they matter and that they have a voice. I usually bring both girls depending on where we go. Hashtag mom life. But Addi still thinks is awesome to do something she wants to do.
some fun date ideas that your kids will love
Some that cost money:
Going for ice cream, or any other sweet treat
Go bowling
Have a lunch/dinner date- can be cheap, some restaurants have a "kids eat free"
Go miniature golfing
Going to a movie
Going for a bike ride, or any ride on toy your child may like
Bake something together
A library date
Window shop at a pet store
Feed the ducks
At the end of the day it doesn't have to be something that you have to spend money on. Our main focus for taking the girls on dates is because with our full schedules and life in general it is easy to not pay so much attention to our children. Giving then a few minutes or more of undivided attention will mean the world to our children. Any little effort will work. Just remember to be there for them.
XO, Rachel

Why use handmade Kimberley Rose Soap
Glycerin a Natural Moisturizer
The glycerin in handmade soap is said to leave a thin layer behind even after being washed off. This is a good thing because Glycerin is a humectant (it attracts moisture from the environment to your skin). It is not added to handcrafted soap; it is a natural by-product of the soap-making process. In fact, if your soap develops small dew drops of glycerin during times of high humidity, don't worry... it's doing it's job!
Fewer Chemicals
Handcrafted soap has no petrochemicals, toxic detergents, or synthetic fragrances and dyes; which dry out and irritate skin. Avoiding toxins in even a small area adds to a healthy lifestyle and a youthful look!
Natural Ingredients
Handmade soap is made with natural oils, moisturizing butters, organic botanicals, detoxing clays, and Essential Oils that are known to have antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. At Kimberley Rose we take pride in using these high quality, food grade ingredients.
Lather Up!!!
You may have noticed that Handmade soap does not have the same lather as Shower Gel. Due to its lack of chemicals that create artificial bubbles and its properties of high moisture the bubbles are creamier and smaller. Although less lather does not mean less clean, as many believe; there is a solution!!!
Simply use the old fashion friction of a mesh pouf or a natural loofah to bring up larger, frothy bubbles that some of us love and enjoy!
Soap Saver Pouch
Watch the video to see how much the soap lathers up in less than 30 seconds by using this soap saver pouch....Wait for it!!!
This pouch can also be used to save soap; as you leave it inside the hanging pouch to air dry between uses.
Try yours today!

Whether you own your home or rent it, and whether that home is a house or a condominium apartment, you need to make sure that your personal contents are insured.
People living in condominiums often have a false sense of security in thinking they are fully insured, but while the building itself is covered, the contents inside the individual units are not. And while you may think you don't have anything of real value, consider how much it would cost if you had to replace your TV and electronic gadgets, all your furniture and all your clothes in one shot? Suddenly contents insurance makes sense!
In the event of a burglary or a fire, it's often difficult for victims to recall exactly what was damaged or has gone missing. For this reason you're strongly encouraged to set aside some time to create an inventory of all your possessions.
Here are some tips for making your list:
- Consider making a room-by-room video recording of all your possessions.
- Create a written description of your contents. In that list, include makes, models and product serial numbers.
- Recognize that unique or expensive items (such as jewelry) may require a separate insurance rider.
- Keep purchase receipts for all major items.
- Once you create your comprehensive inventory list, store it off-site, away from your home, in a safety deposit box, or at least save your written description to the Cloud or a flash drive in case your computer is damaged or stolen.

Reviewing and accepting contracts is a regular and important requirement for homeowner associations boards. However I see many boards that make mistakes in awarding contracts for work on association complexes. This article identifies some of the most common mistakes I see—and believe me, I see these every day.
Management of condominiums requires HOAs to enter into a variety of contracts with different vendors and suppliers to provide essential services (laundry room facilities, landscape maintenance, etc.) to condominium residents. Your HOA board may sign these agreements for the condominium without thoroughly reading the legal terms governing the relationships, which may have just led your homeowners association to renew contracts with approval, limit service options, etc.

Does The Shawshank Redemption depict life in a real prison? It's a common question from readers of These Stone Walls. How a prison film became a cable TV classic. I learned long ago in prison not to face Labor Day weekend without something to read. Long holiday weekends are a blessing in the free world, but a curse in this one. For the most part, prisoners are stuck inside for three long days that sometimes stretch into four or five. So on These Stone Walls I developed the "Stuck Inside … [Read more...]

Scenes from Jeffrey Deitch's Star-Studded Final Show
With his move to take over at Los Angeles' Museum of Contemporary Art coming just around the corner, Jeffrey Deitch had already said goodbye to New York via podcast, but it was finally time to do it in person. With the mural now in place, the final show at Deitch Projects opened up this weekend, showing new work by Shepard Fairey, featuring lots of revolutionaries in the artist's familiar style (the fact that it opened on May 1st, and was even called "May Day," feels a little forced, but what can you do?). And since both Deitch and Fairey are both familiar spotlight types and this was an extra special occasion, it wasn't just lots of dissidents on display, but celebrities as well. Art Info was on the ground at the event, putting together this batch of photos, as well as some details of the gallerist's last hurrah. Here's a bit:
Inside that cordon, Deitch bounded about in a pastel-pink suit, a knit red tie around his crisp white collar, chatting with luminaries that included writer Salman Rushdie, actor Adrien Brody, and hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, who was also spotted last week at a party for the new Basquiatdocumentary. (Interestingly enough, one of Fairey's portraits showed that legendary late street artist, once a close confederate of Deitch.)

Telangana CM congratulates ISRO for successful GSAT 9 launch
| Updated: Aug 23, 2017 11:20 IST
Hyderabad [Telangana], May 5 (ANI): Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao on Friday hailed the successful launch of GSAT 9 by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Rao said," I congratulate scientist at ISRO for the successful launch of GSAT 9 which will be beneficial to seven countries from the South Asian region." "I hope that ISRO would continue to conduct successful experiments," he added. Terming the successful launch of South Asian Satellite as 'historic', Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said it opens up new horizons of engagement. "Today is a historic day for South Asia...a day without precedence. Two years ago India made a promise. A promise to extend the advanced space technology for the cause of growth and prosperity of our brothers and sisters in South Asia. With this launch we have started a journey to build the most advanced frontier of our partnership," Prime Minister Modi said. Congratulating the team of scientists who worked hard for the successful launch of South Asia Satellite, the Prime Minister said they are very proud of them. "We extend our close links into Outer Space. Grateful to fellow leaders from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives and Sri Lanka for joining me to celebrate this launch. Our coming together is a sign of our unshakeable resolve to place the needs of our peoples in the forefront. Through this we will achieve effective communication, better governance, better banking services and better education in remote areas," he added. He further said that space technology will touch the lives of the people in the region. Prime Minister Modi along with Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bhutan Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay, Maldives President Abdullah Yamin, Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena and Nepal Prime Minister P. K. Dahal joined via video conference. The Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV-F09) carrying the GSAT-9 or the "South Asia" satellite took off at 4:57 p.m. on Friday. Built by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the rocket blasted off from the second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, about 135 km from here. The satellite, costing around Rs 235 crore, is meant for providing communication and disaster support, connectivity among the countries of South Asia region. Its mission life will span 12 years. This is India's eleventh GSLV launch and its fourth consecutive flight using an indigenous Cryogenic engine powering the upper stage. (ANI)

Art was raised in Troy, TN but has called Memphis his home since 1990. He began playing tenor saxophone at the age of 11 and his continued passion for music led him to Memphis in pursuit of a Jazz Performance degree. As time went on, Art began spending less time in class and more time learning from blues and soul greats on legendary Beale Street. Soon he was playing and recording with many of the Bluff City's top musicians and bands while logging many hours performing as a member of the house band at B.B. King's Blues Club. His talents have led him around the world providing opportunities to perform, record and jam with a wide variety of well-known musicians, producers and music legends. The short list includes Bobby "Blue" Bland, Levon Helm, Wayne Newton, Justin Timberlake, Jonny Lang, JJ Grey and MOFRO, Galactic, the Memphis Horns, the Allman Brothers Band, Will Bernard, Robert Walter, Jim Dickinson, Mason Ruffner, the Coasters, Leslie Gore, Mable John, Dr. John, Snoop Dogg, Lucero, The Mighty Souls Brass Band, the Bo-Keys, John Nemeth, William Bell, Otis Clay, Hi Rhythm Section, Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit, St. Paul and the Broken Bones as well as many others.
Gregg heard Art while he was playing with JJ Grey & MOFRO and this led to his being asked to join the horn section. Art can also be seen in the film "Soul Men" backing Bernie Mac and Samuel L. Jackson with the Bo-Keys.

One of Scotland's best known Scottish television presenters is to headline the 15th Nairn Book and Arts Festival – marking a new chapter for the popular event.
The five-day event begins today at the Nairn Community and Arts Centre situating Nairn's High Street as a focal point throughout the week.
Arts company Wildbird will light up first floor windows with images of local residents in Nairn Street Scene, whilst shops decorate their windows in festival colours.
STV senior news reporter Mike Edwards will appear as the opening speaker as the curtain rises on the events 15th consecutive year this evening, with TV presenter and naturalist Chris Packham bringing it to a close on Sunday.
The event will showcase an ambitious line-up including the National Theatre of Scotland, Canadian country singer Tia McGraff, popular ensemble The Blueswater and poet, author and founder of Dogstar Theatre Hamish MacDonald, as well as bring together a pool of talented poets, authors and writers.
Mary Helen Dewar, the new chairwoman of the Nairn Book and Arts Festival, said: "This is the festival's 15th year and we're celebrating in style with some stellar events. In addition to the wonderful Chris Packham, and our collaboration with arts company Wildbird, we present some of the country's best authors and poets, alongside some excellent local writers.
"Performance in many guises features strongly; I'm delighted that the National Theatre are returning to the festival, joining superb musicians, and award winning poets, in taking the stage. Our Open Exhibition features artists from across the north of Scotland.
"We've put together an ambitious and imaginative programme this year, made possible by essential funding from Creative Scotland, the Davidson Trust, the Highland Council, and the Gordon and Ena Baxter Foundation, together with many local sponsors – we're very grateful for that support."
This year the festival presents the topical 'Sipping with Spies' – an afternoon of insight into the Secret Intelligence Service and lives lived in the shadows, with award -winning writers Mick Herron and Charles Cumming.
A varied musical line-up includes the triumphant return of popular group The Blueswater, this time in female guise with Queens of the Blues; Tia McGraff and partner Tommy Parham, with folk singer Corrina Keeling supporting and Kathleen McInnes.
Meanwhile, the Festival Choir will bring the house down on the events' final evening presenting songs from well-known musicals including The Greatest Showman to Sunshine on Leith at the festivals' anniversary party on Sunday.

I have a relatively ancient Wave Radio [Edited by moderator] and I'm trying to adjust the display brightness to eke out the last life on the fluorescent digits. The technique of holding the clock set button while tapping the volume up button does not work. Is there another method or is the display due to be replaced? I love this radio. I travel a great deal and often I have to be away from home for months at a time. My trusty Wave gives me comfort in foreign locales. Now I attach my FLAC player to it, before that it was CD's....
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Solution.
Hi Rolfster9,
Thanks for updating us with this information. When you are attempting to do this is the system off?
Here are the full steps to adjusting the brightness:
Kind Regards,
Hector B
Hi Rolfster9,
Thanks for posting and welcome to the community. I am very sorry to hear that you are having this issue however I would love to help.
Could you please attach an image of the Wave as the SN doesn't match a product in our database

I am having the same problem. My Wave is at least 15 years old (I think) I have no Time Set button on my remote, only Time and -/+ and 3 alarm settings alarm on/off, wake to, alarm time. I have tried using the Alarm Time button and volume up to no avail.
Any help would be hot cause I don't want to send my radio in for repair.
Forgot to mention that there are no buttons on the radio only on the remote
Hey bubbi1956,
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Bose Community. Sorry to read that you are having some issues with adjusting the brightness of your Wave and would love to assist you with this.
So that I can provide you with the most accurate information and troubleshooting steps can you please let me know which Wave system you have? If you are unsure of the exact model you can use our Bose Product Identifier here. The base of the Wave should also be able to tell you which Wave system you have.
I look forward to hearing back from you with the answer to this.
Kind regards,
Hector B

I also have an older Wave Radio. Model AWR1-1W
I have tried to increase the brightness of the display as suggested in the previous responses. It is apparently as bright as it is going to get.
Are there replacement displays available?
Hello Crowpatrol,
Welcome to the Bose Community. Thanks for joining the discussion.
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your Wave Radio's display.
Bose do not sell individual components such as displays so this isn't something we can assist with. I can also confirm the system is no longer repairable due to parts no longer being manufactured. If the issue is making the system unusable, I'd recommend reaching out to local support here to see if there are any alternative service options available.
Kind regards,
Jeff G
