If you own and play the electric guitar, then you own and use an electric guitar cable. This is one piece of equipment many players overlook and don't think about, but it shouldn't be this way. In fact, having the right type of cable can not only make you sound better, but will save you some money in the long run as well.
Most of us start out with a small practice amp and guitar, most likely from a kit. It comes with a guitar, amp, strap, and cable, all included in the box. At the time, we think that the whole setup is the best there ever was and are generally just really excited to have an electric guitar to play that we don't think a thing about the quality of the cable that came with it. After you've upgraded, or had a few of your cables destroyed and broken, you may have started to think about the quality of the cable that you purchase.
A trip to the local music store reveals that there are a ton of cables that are just $10, and also a ton that are $20 and more. There are some noticeable differences, nylon coverings, gold plating, length, etc. etc., but we figure that a cable's just a cable, right? and buy the cheap-o $10 cable.
Some guitarists go through this cycle over and over and still buy the cheap cables at their music store. It's like a yearly ritual where they go and shell out $10 to replace the junky cable that's been rendered useless. Not only is that a horrible way to waste at least $10 a year, but you're also left with a cable that's not performing as well as it could. If you had just spent the $20, you would have gotten more than double you money's worth. Let me break down some of the things to look for in a quality cable, so you know next time your cheap cable goes kaput.
- Length - this is of concern, because the longer the cable, the flatter your tone. Many people don't know this or don't think about it and get 50 feet of cable so they can walk around the house while they play the guitar. If you have active pickups, you don't have to worry about the length as much, but for the rest of us, keep it under 20 feet.
- Thickness - this one is under debate. I've used both thick and thin cables, and haven't seen any noticeable difference. Some of the most highly regarded instrument cable is some of the thinnest in the world, so this is a judgment call.
- Nylon braiding - this is nice, as it gives your cable some visual appeal, but it provides no extra protection or advantage. Only get the nylon braided cables if you really like them.
- Gold plating - this is one thing that you can opt for that will increase the quality of your cable. Gold conducts electricity more efficiently than nickel, and therefore is a better connector. If you can find them, get the cables with the gold connectors.
- Housing - the housing at the end of the cable around the jack does make a difference. Most cables have molded housing that can't be remove, not easily anyway. If you can find them, get the cables that offer the removable housing. It usually screws off and allows access to the soldered parts where the cable is connected. With these cables, if they break you can always fix them. So that $20 cable might be around until your dead, replacing 70 $10 cables. Sounds like a good deal, right?
While you can always get away with the cheap units, buying good quality cables is always a good idea. Look at your local music store for some with the features I mentioned next time yours breaks. If you don't see them, talk to the guy in the store, he'll order it for you. Good luck & have fun!

The Many Ways to Track a Cell Phone Number Owner
If you want to track a cell phone number owner, there are really just three things you can do: (A) answer the phone when the number calls you, (B) hire a private detective to pose as a telemarketer for glow-in-the-dark condoms, or (C) use a reverse lookup company for mobile, telephone, or cellular numbers.
Of course, all solutions are based on the scenario that you're being stalked by a loose-screwed psycho with a cell phone number that's not on your contact list. Using solution A can tricky, as the caller might just hang up on you the moment you answer your call or worse, do a Hollywood-esque spiel like "I know WHO you did last summer..."
On the other hand, tracking by hiring a private detector is going to cost you a lot of money. And really now, detective agencies rarely have the knack for effective telesales calls.
A reverse lookup thus far is the most effective strategy you can take on. There are many reverse lookup companies on the Internet. Many of them are very good companies - the main downside to them is the price. Some charge as high as $25 per search. Other websites, meanwhile, charge a one-time fee - some as high as $59.
You can try looking for a free reverse lookup company tracker. Chances are, you'll be like most Internet users - you don't where to find them or you refuse to believe that they exist. In most cases, you might yourself hopping from one free reverse lookup service to another - hoping to find something that is perfectly legit and with an extensive database of numbers.
The common belief is that you won't be able to find a very good free service on the Internet - for a very good reason. Cell phone service providers privately keep the database of their subscribers. It's like they're holding their database of cell phone subscribers in the palm of their hands. In order to tickle their hands open, the companies offering reverse lookup companies have to pay for access to the database. It can cost up to tens of thousands of dollars just to acquire and keep these databases updated.
The Balance In Favor
If you're using a reverse lookup company, it is easy to track down a cell phone number owner. You will only need to enter the cell phone number and the results will be generated for you.
A typical lookup would have this kind of information:
The owner's name
Address
Cell phone company
In some cases, the information could be expanded to include the owner's legal records, like if he or she has done time in jail, how times married and divorced, among other records. In choosing a reverse lookup company, what you should think about is the money-back guarantee. You should also think about how excellent customer support is. You certainly don't want to waste your money on something that doesn't work for you. And you really won't like it if the company you booked doesn't even reply to your emails.

How to remove a SATA laptop HD?
I have a HP Pavilion dv9000 series 17" laptop. The fan has been going on overdrive the last couple days and finally just went kaput. I need to back up my data, but to get to the screws, apparently I need to remove the outer shell. Any suggestions on doing that? I removed all the screws, but am having trouble taking it out (since all the peripheral ports seem to be hindering removal).
Thanks all for help
Here's the link to the maintenance manual for your laptop. Removing the hard drive is on pages 5-7 through 5-10.
