      A good friend recently had some issues with his Mac Book Pro - sound output was affected.  He took it to the shop while under warranty (2 weeks remaining).  The tech found bugs not digital bugs but real insects.  I don't recommend spraying your computer but remember those little pests can cause problems.  I also have seen similar issues in Towers.
      There is a new "add-on" for Chrome and Firefox browsers called "Hola" from Hola.org or the Firefox Add-on Store.  That app will allow you to watch Netflix USA, Pandora and a few other US Media centers.  The site plans to offer more.  I have tested it out for two days with good success.  I would not download the stand-alone program.  Most of the tech feed back is mixed.  Remember if it doesn't work in the browser, the add-on's are easier to remove.  If you are happy with Hola, you can hook most modern computers to modern TV's through an HDMI cable.  You will have to change the "Default" setting for "playback" devices to HDMI to send the sound to your speakers.  Right click on the Speaker Icon, left click on Playback Devices, highlight the HDMI and select as default.  Remember resolution is dependent on your available bandwidth.
     Take a look at your Documents folder.  If you haven't back-up, it may be the last time you see them.  That reminds me, I haven't done that either since my last posting.  I'm starting right now.

COMMUNITY MARKET  -  Next market is sometime in the fall!

a.  We want to send a big thank you to Denise and Michelle for organizing a great Los Barriles Community Market this season. They are a pleasure to work with and provide an opportunity for local businesses to showcase their food, products, art, and crafts.  They brought local musicians to entertain us and a big thank you always to Dale for being the DJ and sound man. We look forward to next year.  Susan and Skip Ackerman, Solstice Solar of Baja.
