TEAMS: Detroit Lions, Ohio State Buckeyes, Mississippi State Bulldogs
ALLEN PARK, Mich. Sometimes a players opportunity comes from a teams desperation.
The Detroit Lions started the season with a four-man rotation at receiver of Calvin Johnson, Nate Burleson, Titus Young and Ryan Broyles a superstar, a nine-year veteran and two promising second-round draft picks.
That group now consists of Johnson, Mike Thomas, Brian Robiskie and Kris Durham the star, two newcomers added in late October and a practice-squad player just elevated to the 53-man roster.
The Lions also have re-signed Michigan native Lance Long, who was released nine days before the season-opener.
Its a much-different look for quarterback Matthew Stafford entering Sundays game at Green Bay.
We get three days of practice before the game; thats all we need, Stafford said, somewhat tongue in cheek, of the recent wide-receiver overhaul.
As Thomas put it, its been a whirlwind since his arrival from Jacksonville in a trade five weeks ago.
"It's a week-to-week league," he said.
When Burleson went down with a broken leg on Oct. 22, it was supposed to open the door for Young to take on the bigger role that he supposedly coveted.
When Youngs bad attitude put him in the doghouse in recent weeks, it was supposed to be just what Broyles needed for a breakout.
And now that Broyles is out after suffering a knee injury last Sunday, the decimation of the receiving corps behind Johnson is complete.
The opportunity is there for anybody with two hands and a Lions helmet.
I think the Madden Curse affected everybody else except for Calvin, Burleson said, referring to Johnsons cover shot on the popular Madden video game.
So just who are all these new faces?
Thomas, a fourth-round pick by Jacksonville in 2009, came to Detroit as the No. 4 receiver and already has moved up to No. 2.
He had become expendable in Jacksonville because of the emergence of two younger receivers.
Thomas, a 25-year-old speedster, played in college at Arizona. He has three catches for 16 yards and one touchdown in five games since joining the Lions. He also carried the ball on two end-around plays for 20 yards.
"I'm always in Matt's ear, trying to figure out what I did and what I didn't do, what I need to do," Thomas said. "It's a work in process. Hopefully, we can get something going. I'm excited."
Robiskie, a second-round pick by Cleveland coming out of Ohio State in 2009, has played in only two games since getting signed as a free agent two days after Burlesons injury. He had been released earlier in the season by Jacksonville.
Robiskie, 25, runs good routes and has good hands, according to offensive coordinator Scott Linehan.
Its been kind of learning on the fly, but I definitely feel more comfortable each week, said Robiskie, whose father, Terry, is a receivers coach for Atlanta. Thats how the game goes. You just have to stay ready. You never know when your number might be called.
Durham, 24, is a former roommate and teammate of Staffords at Georgia. Hes currently living with Stafford.
Asked if they talk game plans over dinner, Durham said with a laugh: We do, but then Matthews girlfriend tends to get mad so we have to stop that.
Durham, who is 6 feet 6, was a fourth-round pick by Seattle in 2011. He suffered a shoulder injury last season and got released this year by the Seahawks at the end of training camp. Hes been practicing with the Lions since early September.
"It's a big opportunity," Durham said. "I've been working my butt off to try to get to this point. I'll bring whatever they want ... special teams, offense, catch 10 balls, catch no balls, block for Calvin, block for the running backs. I don't really care. I just want to win."
It's a refreshing approach after all of Young's antics.
Long, 27, given the nickname The Vanilla Gorilla during training camp, also brings an extremely upbeat approach to the locker room.
Long, an undrafted player out of Mississippi State in 2008, has been working out and helping train young athletes in recent months at the Premier Training Center in Macomb, Mich.
I havent watched a football game since I was released, said Long, who appeared in a total of eight games for Arizona and Kansas City in 2009. I was frustrated. I feel like I put my best foot forward.
He did, but it just didnt work out at the time. Now, however, hes getting another shot to try to live out a dream of playing for the hometown NFL team.
Put all these guys together, and it's a mishmash unit. If Johnson was getting triple-teamed before, imagine what its going to be like now.
We expect to operate at full capacity on offense," coach Jim Schwartz argued. "All those guys have credentials. All those guys can make plays.
Center Dominic Raiola added: Theyre not chopped liver. Like we always say, 'Next man up.' Fill in and do the job. I expect those guys to step up.
All each of them wants is a chance, and now theyre going to get it.

Cleaver - Dark Bluish Gray
A large knife that varies in its shape but usually resembles a square-bladed hatchet. In contrast to other kitchen knives, the Cleaver has an especially strong edge meant to withstand repeated blows against meat and bone. The edge does not need to be particularly sharp, because the knife's design, like a hatchet or axe, relies on its weight to cut efficiently. In fact, a "razor-edge" on a Cleaver can be counterproductive unless of course you plan to use it for deviant purposes. Fits most standard minifig hands.

Flintlock Pistol - Dark Blueish Gray
The Flintlock Pistol was the greatest advance in pirating since the wooden leg. Developed in the 1600s, these pistols revolutionized ship-to-ship combat (and on-land raiding), and later became a primary means of dueling. Their effective range was very short, and they were frequently used as an adjunct to the sword or cutlass. Sea rovers will appreciate the simple, yet familiar styling that allows for multiple grip points and easy handling. Fits most standard minifig hands.

As with most equipment the Golf Club makes a handy weapon in a pinch when faced with a street fight or fending off hungry undead. Fits most standard minifig hands.

Phaser - Dark Blueish Gray
The Phased Energy Rectification beam channels subatomic particles, called rapid nadions, into a directed, destructive force. Phasers come in a wide range of sizes, ranging from hand-held versions to starship-mounted ones. A typical hand Phaser can merely stun a target or completely disintegrate it, and the beam can be adjusted to strike multiple targets at once or used as a welding torch or cutting tool. To really make a bang set the Phaser to overload resulting in a blast that can destroy most natural objects within a 50-yard radius. BOOM! Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.50
Saw - Dark Blueish Gray
The Saw dates back to prehistory as one of the earliest, and most fundamental tools. Our earliest ancestors likely used jaw bones for precise cutting; whereas modern equivalents are made primarily from steel. Hand Saws are a carpenters best friend and are used to cut pieces of wood into different shapes. The teeth can take on many different types of shapes and angles depending on what needs to be cut. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.50
Sickle - Dark Blueish Gray
A Sickle is a hand-held agricultural tool with a curved blade typically used for harvesting grain crop or cutting grass for hay. The inside of the curve is sharp, so that the user can draw or swing the blade against the base of the crop, catching it in the curve and slicing it at the same time. In Greek myths, the Sickle was used as a weapon by Cronus and Perseus, and most recently a bunch of zealotous kids wandering around in corn fields. Fits most standard minifig hands.
Our price: $0.50
Arrows - Dark Blueish Gray
The arrow is a shafted projectile that is shot with a bow. It predates recorded history and is common to most cultures. Arrows have evolved over time; the first simply using a sharpened tip of the solid, wooden shaft - then evolving into separate arrowheads made from rock, metal or horns.

The BrickForge Arrow assortment features three arrows: Two-bladed Broadhead, Four-bladed Razorhead and an Explosive arrow. We're sure you'll find a use for 'em.

Byron Gordon, SEO-PR, interviews Bianca Gardner, Horizon Media, Inc. (http://www.horizonmedia.com) on the panel topic: Viewable Impressions: the Key to Online Media Performance through Smarter Buying at SES New York 2012. Bianca begins by debunking a number of previously established truisms about how impressions are delivered and seen. The first is that the greater volume of impressions should achieve greater reach. No so, according to Bianca. Her company, using a third party platform, realview.com, discovered that in working with ad networks, in particular, in terms of getting reach against intended audiences a greater volume impressions did not achieve greater reach. Next Bianca debunks the notion that above the fold media always wins. Not so, according to Bianca. Putting your ads around relevant content and why that person is visiting your site are the factors that you want to be wrapping your message around. It has nothing to do with above or below the fold.
01:31 -- Bianca discusses the benefits of using the new technology behind the viewable impression. Benefits to the agency and client include saving a lot of money as too many impressions are being wasted without the client getting any value. On the publisher side, with viewable impressions, publishers can identify portions of their site that they are clearly undervaluing and start monetizing those appropriately, such as below the fold media.
02:15 -- Bianca discusses where to begin measuring viewable data. Bianca says you are appending a pixel to your display creative and off it goes to the ad server and you immediately begin to get real-time data in terms of what volume of your media is being seen versus not for marginal CPM.
Realview, C3, and Comscore are three vendors pioneering the advent of the viewable impression.

The tribunal, led by BDR head Maj. Gen. Mainul Islam, fined each of the men Tk 100 and sentenced [BDNews24 report] them to prison terms ranging from four months to six years, one year short of the maximum possible sentence for rebellion under Bangladeshi law. About 3,500 other soldiers will face lesser charges in military courts, which have already convicted more than 200 [JURIST report]. Six special courts were established [BD News report] shortly after the Bangladeshi Supreme Court [official website] recommended against [JURIST report] military court-martial trials for BDR members who took part in the mutiny. Dozens of BDR officers, including the force's commander, were killed and their bodies left in sewers and shallow graves during the mutiny, which was sparked by grievances over pay and working conditions.

Camogli, at the edge of the large promontory and nature reserve known as the Portofino Peninsula, has always been a town of sailors. By the 19th century it was leasing its ships throughout the continent. Today multicolor houses, remarkably deceptive trompe-l'oeil frescoes, and a massive 17th-century seawall mark this appealing harbor community, which is perhaps as beautiful as Portofino but without the glamour. When exploring on foot, don't miss the boat-filled second harbor, which is reached by ducking under a narrow archway at the northern end of the first one.

Eddie Huang, the gleefully iconoclastic chef-cum-troublemaker, was in a back room at the Ace Hotel, remembering high school. He'd just finished serving as the host of a Jeremy Lin viewing party for a crowd of the chef's friends and "three random girls from Twitter." The wax-paper wrapped bao—the signature Asian bun sandwiches that have been drawing crowds to his restaurant, Baohaus, since December 2009—were long since emptied of their pork-packed glories. The Knicks had fallen to the New Jersey Nets. And Mr. Huang was in a reflective mood.
Earlier that day, he had published a post on his blog, Fresh Off the Boat. The post examined the spectacle of an Asian-American like Mr. Lin exploding as a pop-culture force. It was a cutting, personal indictment of stereotypes and racism. By that evening, it had racked up over 32,000 unique views.
"It was mainly Asian kids that really hated on me," he remembered. "They thought that there was one face to being Asian, and I was different."
Mr. Huang was wearing a hybrid of high fashion and streetwear. The look was finished with large glasses not unlike the kind made popular by Kim Jong-Il, giving him the appearance of the lost Beastie Boy who'd finally taken Pyongyang.
If Mr. Huang has made a splash with his reinventions of quick-serve, high-end Asian eats, he is perhaps better known for his outspokenness. In a way, he admitted, cooking has always been more of a means than an end for him. "I went into the food world because I realized that no other place in America would let me break through and speak the way I speak. They will listen to us"—he pointed to himself, meaning, Asian-Americans—"because they want Combo Number Five. You know what I mean? We're cute. We're Hello Kitty-like."
Mr. Huang noted that Asian stereotypes were a double-edged sword. "At the end of the day, people would rather put me in a conference room"—sitting in on a business meeting—"than one of the dudes who works for me from LeFrak City, just because of the way I look and the way I smile," he said. "I recognize that it's an advantage. But it's also a disadvantage."
He laughed, adding, "No matter what I do, people will be like, 'He's cute. That dude is like Keroppi.'"
Of course, Sanrio's cross-eyed amphibian is internationally famous, and Mr. Huang is still just a local celebrity. But that might all be about to change. On the horizon for Mr. Huang—who before opening his own restaurant had stints as a streetwear retailer, a journalist, a weed dealer, a stand-up comic and an attorney—is a memoir and a television show.
"There's a lot of good things in place," Mr. Huang told The Observer. "The show, the book—those things are gonna happen. It's just like: Don't fuck it up Eddie. Do not. Fuck. This. Up."
IN MARCH, while negotiations were underway with the Cooking Channel—the Food Network's younger spin-off—over the fate of Mr. Huang's first national TV show, he took to Twitter to verbally fricassee one of the company's top celebrities, Anne Burrell.
After the frosty-haired host of Worst Cooks in America, Secrets of a Restaurant Chef and The Next Iron Chef derided him to another chef, Mr. Huang fired back: "you host WORST COOKS IN AMERICA, dress like Guy Fieri, and snitch to networks when you're not happy. i tell it like it is." And yes, Mr. Fieri is also a major Food Network star.
Mr. Huang admitted that network executives were not especially appreciative of his particular preparation of beef.
"They were pissed," he said.
As a negotiating tactic, trashing your would-be colleagues seems counterintuitive, but Mr. Huang can't seem to help himself. "I just love that," laughed his friend and mentor Anthony Bourdain. "Here's a guy on his way to getting a show on the Cooking Channel, and he's out there just mercilessly beating up on their stable of stars," he chuckled. "A guy with a vocabulary like that, who's that fast, and that funny? That's a dangerous entity to have. Especially in a target-rich environment like the Cooking Channel."
Mr. Bourdain, the bad boy former chef, author of Kitchen Confidential and Travel Channel regular, recently started his own literary imprint at Harper Collins. "I'm heartbroken that I didn't have my imprint up and running in time to publish him," he noted of Eddie's forthcoming book with Random House, which (Mr. Huang explained with unrestrained glee) is being edited by Chris Jackson, who also edited Jay-Z's memoir Decoded.
He was effusive in praise for Mr. Huang when explaining his appeal: "Here's someone less and less unusual these days in the respect that he's clearly not done what his parents wanted him to do, who's broken the pattern of what's expected of him, and with that there's come some guilt there, some discomfort there."
"There's a lot of anger there, and as so often happens, a very very sharp, funny guy there with a lot to say." Mr. Bourdain finished: "Important stuff to say."
A few weeks later—just days after his 30th birthday (the party, at Southside, featured a "dream" performance by Prodigy, of the seminal rap group Mobb Deep)—Mr. Huang explained his Cooking Channel dilemma over a late lunch in Fort Greene.
He talked about weighing two alternative routes to video stardom: his planned basic cable show versus a project to be produced and distributed independently online. Despite the recent publication of a press release by the channel's parent company heralding Mr. Huang's arrival, his contract had not actually been signed yet. By him.
Mr. Huang declined to discuss the nuances of the deal, but it seemed clear that joining an established network would mean sheathing his paring knife, learning to be a team player, going along to get along.
"They told me straight up: 'Look, you can't make fun of anyone on this network anymore,'" he recalled. "'They're all family. You're part of the family now.'" At this, he threw his hands up. "I was like, 'I didn't choose to be part of this family.' Like, 'You're buying a show, I'm fulfilling my services on the show.'"
Or as Mr. Bourdain put it, "If you can't make fun of Anne Burrell and Guy Fieri, comedy's dead."
"Networks are always looking for something "edgy," he added, but when they actually get it, "it scares the shit out of them, and they think: Gee, not that edgy."
THE ELDEST of three brothers, Mr. Huang grew up in Orlando, Fla. His mother was just out of high school when she met his father, now a restaurateur whom Mr. Huang said had been affiliated with a Taiwanese street gang. "He ran shit," Mr. Huang said.
Eventually, the elder Mr. Huang settled with his brother in Washington, D.C., where he met Eddie's mother, who became pregnant with Eddie—the first of the three Huang boys—in college. The family then relocated to Orlando, where they ended up launching a steakhouse called Cattleman's, and the Black Olive, a Mediterranean restaurant—where Eddie and his two brothers were exposed to the business at an early age.
Still, the Huangs pushed their sons toward academics. "They wanted us to be straight-laced and overachieving," remembered Mr. Huang's 24-year-old brother, Evan, who in addition to living with Eddie in StuyTown, is a co-owner of Baohaus.
While Mr. Huang was a decent student ("B average-ish") he had a tendency to get into trouble. In high school, someone broke his middle brother Emery's nose, so Eddie earned his first assault charge for fighting. The second came when he was a film and English major at Orlando's Rollins College. He was then making extra money by selling weed, and he got into a fight with some fraternity types. The two offenses earned him felony probation.
Forced to clean up his act, Mr. Huang threw himself into his schoolwork, winning departmental awards in African-American and feminist studies, and trying his hand at sports journalism, penning an article on the Malice at the Palace for the Orlando Sentinal.
After the piece ran, Mr. Huang said, an editor called him in to interview for a job as a basketball beat writer. "The first thing the guy said to me was: 'Oh, no one's gonna talk to you with that face.' Those exact words. Not, 'Hi, hello.' And he caught himself: 'No, not like that—your age.'"
"But I knew what he meant. I knew exactly what he meant."
In early 2005, Mr. Huang enrolled in law school at Cardozo in Manhattan. While there, he maintained a number of side-jobs: He printed his own tees and hawked them online. He became friendly with 50 Cent affiliate and G-Unit member DJ Whoo-Kid, and began promoting parties for him. He took freelance writing jobs with XXL, Rotowire, NBA.com, and Law.com. He also continued selling marijuana, though "not, like, serious weight," he noted.
In September 2008, Mr. Huang was hired as an associate at white-shoe law firm Chadbourne and Park. The economy tanked immediately thereafter. On March 10, 2009, on what Mr. Huang described as "one of the best days of my life," he was laid off. He tried his hand at stand-up comedy, hosting open mic nights, but soon sensed he wasn't gaining traction. What did seem to be winning him fans was the food he often brought along for club owners and fellow comics.
After answering a Craigslist post, he landed a spot on the Guy Fieri-hosted Ultimate Recipe Showdown. He lost the competition, but by the time he went home for the holidays in 2009, plans for Baohaus were well underway.
Mr. Huang's parents, already unhappy with their son's rudderless streak, offered no financial help with the restaurant. The relationship worsened when Eddie managed to get Evan—then a single semester away from graduating college in Orlando—to join him in his new endeavor. "'My parents hated Eddie for a while," Evan laughed. "They thought he was going to ruin my future."
But Baohaus was a hit. So much so that barely half a year later, Mr. Huang decided to open another restaurant on the Lower East Side, Xiao Ye, in July 2010. Whereas Baohaus was a tiny, counter-based quick-serve restaurant, Xiao Ye typified the middle-class family restaurants his parents had run. Without the family part.
Hip-hop blasted from the speakers. A sign painted above the kitchen door screamed: "DERICIOUS." The menu read like any TigerMom's worst nightmare: "Cheeto Fried Chicken," "General Poke-Her-Face Prawns," "Robster Rice" and "Poontang Pot Stickers" were signature dishes. Only three months after opening, the restaurant earned a New York Times review.
In it, Sam Sifton slammed Xiao Ye as an "artful misfire," calling the food "dishonest" and finishing things off with a goose-egg. The review also noted the potential the place had "if Mr. Huang spent even a third of the time cooking that he does writing funny blog posts."
Oftentimes, restaurant owners respond to a bad review by taking up arms in the press against the critic in question. Mr. Huang took a different tack: wholeheartedly agreeing with Mr. Sifton, and posting a hysterically withering email from his mother, encouraging him to keep his law license active so he could potentially go back to being a lawyer.
"YOU MUST GET BURNT BEFORE YOU WILL HEAR YOUR MOM," she wrote. "You have a lot of potential, but you must make good choice and stick to it with the best choice. With all the staff, and your korean friend, no one was able to point out or warn you the mistakes, or problems you have???????????????????"
"I didn't want to do shitty food on purpose," he explained. "I wanted to just wild out, and do really dumb shit in an artful way."
He added that part of the original vision was that "customers could come in every night and know that it was going to be fun." That part, he definitely managed. That summer, a caffeinated malt liquor drink called Four Loko began to gain popularity. Senator Charles Schumer launched a war on the beverage, and Mr. Huang saw an opening. He changed his Twitter handle to "General Loko" and instituted an all-you-can-drink Four Loko dinner. After the plan was deemed illicit, he tacked on $3 per can charge. According to his tweets the morning after, the dinner was a great success.
But that night, the State Liquor Authority raided Xiao Ye and destroyed all the Four Loko. Over the next few weeks, the restaurant was raided by the SLA on three separate occasions after citations for serving underage drinkers (in the form of undercover SLA agents). Under threat of losing his liquor license—which would have made selling the space more difficult—Mr. Huang and his partners shut Xiao Ye down.
Reflecting on the failure, Evan is philosophical. "Xiao Ye was definitely Eddie trying to prove something," he said. "And he didn't fully prove it, but he learned a lot."
IN JULY, a second Baohaus was opened on 14th Street. On a recent Friday night, a line snaked around the door as Ol' Dirty Bastard's "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" pumped through the restaurant.
Mr. Huang has collaborated on a few one-off Chinese New Year's dinners, one of which received a glowing review from Mr. Sifton. Plans to open other Baohaus locations are in the works. And the book deal—which Eddie considers the best thing he's ever done with his life—has been signed.
Though he eventually wants to open another sit-down restaurant, he noted, "I don't have a plan. I hope people don't get upset that cooking is just one thing that I'm into."
Just a few weeks after our lunch, Mr. Huang was sitting in the lobby of the Museum of Chinese in America, having delivered a speech on the topic of whether Asians are black or not. Later, sitting with The Observer in the lobby, he was still mulling over the contract from the Cooking Channel.
He wanted success, but at what price? After all, it was the unfiltered Eddie Huang—self-destructive fuck-up, unlikely feminist, reluctant chef, crack-up, class clown and social equality advocate—who got him so far in the first place. Would those ingredients work any other preparation but his own?
A few days later, he made it clear where he stood, while DJing music on an Internet radio station. "My next song is for Anne Burrell and Guy Fieri," he wrote, tweeting out the link to a YouTube page. Those who clicked through found a G-Unit video: "I Smell Pussy."
The contract has yet to be signed, and negotiations are still ongoing.
During our interview, Mr. Huang recalled the posters he put up in his room as a child: Basketball players like Allen Iverson and Charles Barkley.
"There were no posters I could buy of Asian people besides Bruce Lee. And—I mean, no one's ever going to put up a poster of me, but I hope that, to some kid"—he paused, looking up. "I get emails from Asian kids, and it means the world to me, that they're like: Yo man, you're doing your thing, you're saying what I want to say, and you make me feel like I can walk around with my head up.
"People have sent me emails like that," he grinned. "I won."

Help! USB to Ethernet adaptor for MacBook Air Problems
So I just purchased a USB to ethernet adaptor (Model KY-LANRD9700) for my MBA 2011, running mountain lion. I opened up the package and it had a driver installation CD. Now since the MBA doesn't have a cd drive, I used remote disc with my other windows laptop. There was a folder named setup, but the only thing in that folder was a .exe extension, and i'm not runnin any windows on my MBA. THe other files were in a fold called USB.LAN,RD9700 Driver.... and I installed the drivers that were in the Mac folder. After restarting my computer like it said, i connected it up to the modem and my MBA, and turned off wi-fi, and nothing was working. Did i Do anything wrong? Do i need to get the drivers elsewhere? Do I somehow have to enable a LAN on my MBA?

I have a generic USB to ethernet adapter from Monoprice.com (paid ~$6 USD for it) and I just plugged it in and it worked...go to your network settings and see if the MBA didn't just auto detect it before you try and load any software?

I would say you should stick to getting your adapters from places that have a track record of making good products or sticking with first party items if it is a business critical need.
Return it and get an Apple one. |

Agreed with the previous poster. It just isn't worth trying to save $5-$10 and buy yourself a bunch of hassle with drivers. Monoprice is a well respected alternative, or just buy the Apple brand. Your time is worth money.

No need to send it back. Google the info on the dongle to determine what the chip is. Visit the chipmaker's website (almost certainly ASIX) and grab the most up to date driver. The ones on the CD are possibly out of date.

The KY-LANRD9700 works fine on MBA 2012 using RD9700 drivers from attached CD - simply installed from pkg, rebooted, dongle plugged in and voila, network setting automatically added and do recognize when dongle attached, ethernet connection works fine. No need to overpay genuine gadgets unless you are an Apple purist or need gigabit ethernet (over thunderbolt or usb3)
cheers, -andy. |

The driver for the Apple version is already built in. I noticed this when I was doing bootcamp and while driver installation saw the "USB -> ethernet " driver being installed in Windows.
In Mac OS, they are already there. So if you bought it from a third party and still intend to use it, go online to their support website and see if they have drivers for it.
Lots of Apple,Sony and other gadgets. |

Is he in the middle of the Asian jungle without Internet access or something? Googling probly gives u faster response, *If* ur cousin wasn't fast and loose. Listen to the guy who says "look at chipset." What are u guys doing with USB adapters anyway. Don't u know you are restricting yourselves to USB2 speed?
Solution: FREE, Explanation: Is gonna cost ya. |

He is on vacation and does not want to be bothered with my requests nor does he want to go online he just wants to relax. So please spare me with such remarks. He told me about it weeks ago and I just got the adapter a couple of days ago. Anyways I saw this thread and thought I would find an answer from someone here, and i did not even open a new thread. But OK. I will check google when I get home and have access to my laptop and adapter.

Yes, that was a bit abrupt.
I keep saying it - buy the Apple one or the Monoprice one. There is no reason to be having to search the web for some obscure drivers. |

Most of these adapters are based on ASIX chips. ASIX offers their drivers for download from their website.
USB 2.0 to 100Mbps Ethernet adapters are usually based on some variant of AX88772 (AX88772A, AX88772B... - they all use the same drivers): http://www.asix.com.tw/products.php?...emID=86;71;101 just drivers: http://www.asix.com.tw/download.php?...ail&PItemID=86 USB 3.0 to 1Gbps Ethernet adapters are usually based on the AX88179: http://www.asix.com.tw/products.php?...mID=131;71;112 just drivers: http://www.asix.com.tw/download.php?...il&PItemID=131 |

Washington's self-described "soul hippie" Allen Stone recently debuted this stripped "live from the studio" version of his new single "Millions" (arriving March 18). It also happens to be the lead track from his forthcoming third album Radius (to be confirmed) due this summer via new label home Capitol and one of a few new tracks written with Swedish collaborator Magnus Tingsek. "This new record is a brighter, sleeker color of soul music that portrays the last three years of my experience," says Stone. "Where I've been, what I've learned, what I've lost, and where I'm going. It's the measurement of my soul and my sound at this current place in my life." Click through to watch another acoustic performance: "Satisfaction," from the "1MIC, 1TAKE" sessions.
What began a few years ago as the creative outlet for husband and wife roots/folk duo of Jimmy and Ashlee Hardee Brown, Matrimony became even more of a family affair when Ashlee's brothers Jordan and CJ were brought on board. The union of Jimmy and Ashlee brought a cross-cultural musical marriage as well combining Belfast-born Jimmy's Irish sing-a-long pub/folk energy and Ashlee's traditional southern and Americana roots. "We have this understanding among each other that we don't always have to communicate with words," says Hardee Brown. "And that just naturally comes out when we're all in the same room, making music together." Signed to Columbia, Matrimony have completed their debut album Montibello Memories with producer Jay Joyce (Brandi Carlile, Wallflowers) for a spring release, the follow up to a first-taste EP dropped last summer. Look for "Click through to stream "Giant" and watch the videos for "Golden City" and an acoustic performance of the new "See the Light."
Matrimony - "Golden City"
We're not certain when Miranda Lee Richards' long-awaited new Echoes of the Dreamtime will actually arrive but the San Francisco based singer/songwriter has shared the new song "Seventh Ray" with us. Of course it only makes us want to hear the full-length successor to her resplendent 2009 sophomore album Light of X even more. Rick Parker (Lord Huron) serves as the new project's producer, engineer, mixer and, with Richards, provided the bulk of the album's instrumentation. "Psychedelic chamber folk rock" is how Miranda describes her music. That works for us. "Miranda Lee Richards brand of California country evokes a magic-hour atmosphere while being as beguiling and witchy as Joni Mitchell dripped in reverb and distant pedal steel," says the LA Times. That, too. Click through to stream (and watch) "The Reach" from 2012.
Miranda Lee Richards - "Seventh Ray" (from Echoes of the Dreamtime)
Bry Webb, the acclaimed guitarist, songwriter and frontman of the fine, recently reunited Canadian indie band Constantines, returns with his second solo project Free Will on May 20 via Idée Fixe. The album is the follow up to Provider, his 2012 LP described here as "mostly somber, infinitely mesmerizing folk/rock meditations...if there was ever such a thing as 'chamber Americana' this is it." Recorded in Toronto and co-produced by Webb and Jeff McMurrich (Jennifer Castle, Owen Pallett), Free Will's twelve new songs again delve deep into Webb's distinctive acoustic roots music -- highlighted by pedal steel and double bass -- with the occasional outburst of raw, distorted guitar lines. "I saw him play solo at the Rivoli...maybe eight years ago...says friend Leslie Feist. "I felt like I was seeing Bruce Springsteen do Nebraska or Jeff Buckley, or Dylan, but of my own time." Click through to watch the album trailer and stream "Rivers of Gold" from Provider.

'Psalm 83' pre">
They have said, "Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more." (Psalm 83:4).
'Psalm 83' predicts a climactic, concluding Arab-Israeli war that has eluded the discernment of today's top Bible scholars, and yet, the Middle East stage appears to be set for the exciting but troubling fulfillment of this prophecy. While many of today's top Bible experts are predicting that Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya, and several other countries are going to invade Israel according the prophecy in Ezekiel 38, this timely book explains how the war predicted in Psalm 83 occurs beforehand.
Discover how Israel defeats their ancient Arab enemies, and why Americans need to stand beside Israel in this coming war!

Guns- What would Y'shuah bar Yosef Do and Say? [ Thu Dec 27 2012 3:00 PM ]
Didn't he say in post-Tanak writings that every man should have two (2) swords? Wasn't the sword the "gun" of its day? The Journal News of Westchester County, NY, abuses the 1st Amendment in the same way that psychotic mass murderers abuse the 2nd amendment. In the hands of such a person, anything can become a lethal weapon. A gun is a tool, like the one in your trousers. It can have good or evil uses, depending on to whom it's attached, their intentions and/or whether or not they suffer from incurable diseases. Google Bath+Michigan+May 18, 1927 for the worst massacre against elementary school children in the USA. No guns were used against the children and others. It's a good thing there was no TV or internet back then. It took murderous maniacs many years to rediscover the heinous principle. Last edited [12/27/12 3:02 PM] |

Alexus Calhoun scored 22 points and the Marion County bench added 27 as the Lady Knights captured their eighth straight 20th District Tournament championship 59-51 over Adair County at the Roby Dome in Lebanon. Adair County (18-10) took its last lead at 50-49 on Beth Owens three-pointer early in the fourth frame, but Marion County (15-14) won by using a 10-1 tally down the stretch.
Adair County senior Ty Bennett made sure there would not be a "tie" or an Indian loss when he connected on a right-wing, top-of-the-key three-pointer to send coach Mark Fudge's club past Marion County 61-60 in Wednesday's first-round game in the 20th District Tournament in Lebanon. Adair County (17-12) came back from a 24-6 deficit and fought within 28-23 as Matt Fudge scored nine points during the run and Bennett added a pair of threes.
