I'm seeing what looks to be single bit drops in CPU registers, which is conducive of CPU failure.
If you are overclocking, stop. Reset to factory defaults, and then try again. If it's still unstable, check temps using something like HwInfo. Your best option is to log sensor readings by checking "Sensors only" at startup and starting a log, then running a game till it crashes. Two logs will be sufficient, and three would be optimal. These will provide us both voltage and temp readouts.
I do find it odd that we have it always occurring with the graphics driver involved. The driver itself isn't that old (July 27) but I still recommend you update it to whatever's available.
Do you have any spare graphics card or perhaps onboard graphics? Try switching to something else and pulling out your current graphics card to see if we're dealing with a bad graphics card. If things stabilize, then naturally the card itself is bad. There's also the potential that your PSU just isn't up to snuff and is suffering under the load of the graphics card you have currently installed. Either the PSU itself has too poor of wattage output (remember, output degrades with age!) or it has flaws in it that only seem to manifest when under higher load.

Hi there,
I ran the FurMark Burn In stress test for 30mins with a max temp of 91 C, averaging at around 86 C most of the time. It ran smoothly and didnt BSOD or crash.
I also recently did a format of my computer so i dont have much startup programs, i also uninstalled Daemon tools already.
I noticed my computer crashes whenever i play any game, i can leave it there idling in the menu and after a while it will crash. This happens to every single game i play, its either the game crashing or worse my computer BSOD.
I also never touched the cpu settings, it is stock and hasnt been touched, i have never overclocked it. My cpu is also really stable in temperature, averaging at around 38 C.
And i also updated the realtek drivers but the crashes are still happening.
And also, my computer does not crash/BSOD when im not playing games. Also the only applications that crash are games. Nothing else. It freezes and stops responding, and this only happens to games.

91C is reaaaally pushing it in terms of temperature, even for a graphics card. It shouldn't come close to that high. I recommend you clean the cooler for the card or get a 3rd party cooler for it, or try and improve the airflow of your case.
You said you never overclocked the CPU but what about the GPU? Do you have any programs installed that are designed to overclock your GPU? Do you have your memory OCed? Any of these can cause the problem.
Is there any update for your graphics drivers? Realtek drivers don't appear responsible here.
Run the Hwinfo logs and provide them to us (remember to crash the system during a log run). Also try and perform the other recommendations I gave, as they'll help us isolate if it's the graphics card (probably is).

Apple poking at idea of bayonet phone fittings
Apple has been granted a patent for a system which could bring interchangeable camera lenses to its iOS hardware line. The US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on Tuesday published patent No. 8,687,299, in which Apple describes a system for "bayonet" mounts on its handheld devices which would allow for the attachment of …
Doesn't mean Apple will use it
You seem to have the old-fashioned idea that people patent novel features of their products. That's not how the patent system works nowadays.
Apple will have some R&D engineers working on phones. Part of their job will be to come up with patentable ideas. They likely get a bonus for each patent filed (around five hundred quid per patent is the typical ballpark). Whether Apple use the idea or not is irrelevant - they still get their bonus, and it still looks good on their performance review.
The easy way to come up with patents is to take existing tech and apply it to a new field. E.g. it's interchangeable lenses... but on a phone! The "but on a phone" bit lets you get the patent past the patent office. It may be obvious, but if no-one has written down how to do it then the patent office don't consider it "obvious", and they grant the patent. If you get half a dozen smart people together to brainstorm you can sometimes come up with a half a dozen patent ideas in an hour.
Why do big companies want lots of patents they're not using? Very simple: licensing depends on volume of patents. If Apple have 100 decent patents on SmallCo's phone, and SmallCo has no patents on Apple's phones, then SmallCo are toast - one of those patents is likely to stick, so SmallCo have to pay up or get out of the market. If Apple have 100 decent patents on BigCo phones, but BigCo have 100 decent patents on Apple phones, then suing would be suicidal for both companies and they are forced to cross-license. When it gets down to 5 or 10 patents a side, both sides will be tempted to take it to court and see if they can invalidate the other's patents (see: Apple V Samsung).
Source: I worked in R&D for a big company so I am an "inventor" on some patents.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
Except that Apple doesn't seem to really care at all if someone uses stuff they've patented so long as they aren't using it themselves. It is only when they've patented something and they think someone else is using it that they're bothered by it.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
This just goes to show how inherently corrupt the US patent system is. "but on a phone" should never be allowed to qualify for intellectual effort.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
Ugh, I meant when they've patented something and someone else is using it and they're using it as well. If they aren't using it their patents gather dust as their lawyers ignore them.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
Samsung already make the Galaxy NX - an interchangable-lens camera that runs Android and has 4G connectivity. Or is that a phone that looks like an interchangable-lens camera?
Either way, interchangable lenses on a camera, or camera/phone, is hardly a novel idea.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
>Either way, interchangable lenses on a camera, or camera/phone, is hardly a novel idea.
That is why patents are granted for the implementation of an idea, not the idea itself.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
"Either way, interchangable lenses on a camera, or camera/phone, is hardly a novel idea."
So what?
The implementation can be non-obvious, unique and seminal and therefore patentable.
Re: Doesn't mean Apple will use it
A connector manufacturer told me some years ago that Apple refused to let them sell my then-employer Firewire(tm) connectors for anything but that use.
A firm got a patent for pi
And let nothing round go on by;
They said "Nothing doing!"
We'll shortly be suing
Whoever won't pay us to try.
Thank goodness it's lenses
The idea of a phone with 12 inches of steel sticking out the back is frightening!

a patent on a bayonet fitting?
it's not April 1st any more, this story is late.
Or if it's not supposed to be an April Fool,
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. What bunch of idiots would grant that?
oh .. sh* ....
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
Yeah, bayonet mount for lenses, like my 30 year old camera at home?
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
... but on a phone!
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
>Yeah, bayonet mount for lenses, like my 30 year old camera at home?
Not quite. This patent describes bayonet fittings that 'break off' if the phone is dropped, thus reducing the force applied to the phone casing.
If the phone had even only a 3" lens attachment fitted to it, the bending force on the phone's bayonet fitting would still be considerable. It is better if it breaks away if the phone is knocked or dropped. If read the patent, you will see references to 'elastomeric compliance'. The abstract is cryptically written, but the 'detailed description' section of the patent application is fairly straightforward if you just parse out the mumbo jumbo.
This is akin to bindings on skis - it is better for your boot to become detached from the ski than it is for your knee to bent the wrong way round.
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
>What bunch of idiots would grant that?
Er, the sort of idiot who would comment on a patent application that they clearly haven't read? Oh, the irony.
Read the patent application (as linked to in the above article) and you will see that they are NOT trying to patent 'the bayonet fitting'. They ARE trying to patent a mechanism, incorporating a bayonet system, that makes use of elastomers to allow lens attachments to 'break off' if subjected to a certain threshold level of force, such as would be cause by dropped the phone and lens assembly. The rationale behind this is to protect the phone casing from large bending moments.
I have seen this sort of concept on sports equipment (clipless pedal systems, ski bindings etc) to protect users knees, but I haven't personally come across it used with a bayonet mechanism. If you have, please do provide a link!
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
We're commenting on the story, not the patent application. We shouldn't have to read the comments section (let alone the patent itself) to find out what the supposed novel feature is.
Re: a patent on a bayonet fitting?
>We're commenting on the story, not the patent application
The bit about the idiots granting something was clearly a comment about the patent application, not the Reg's coverage of it.
>We shouldn't have to read the comments section (let alone the patent itself) to find out what the supposed novel feature is.
Agreed, you shouldn't have to, but since it is a Reg story about an Apple patent application I am afraid you usually *do* need to read the patent to know what the novel feature is.
Bayonet lens mounts?
Wow! What a brilliant idea! No-one's ever thought of that before - no prior art there. Definitely a well-deserved patent.
Re: Bayonet lens mounts?
@Big-nosed Pengie
It is not a patent for a generic bayonet fitting, it is a patent for a novel type of bayonet fitting. It describes a system that, unlike light bulbs and SLR lenses, allows the attachment to 'break off' if a threshold level of force is applied, (e.g by dropping the phone), so that less damage is caused to the phone casing. It is the method for implementing this 'break off' mechanism that this patent describes.
An analogy is found on the back of mountain bikes. Rather than attach the rear derailleur mechanism directly to a protrusion on the main frame, the derailleur is attached to a 'break-away' hanger boss. In the event that the rider smashes the derailleur against a rock, the break-away boss snaps. The break-away boss is far cheaper to replace than the entire frame is.
Third-party vendors
> "... either from Apple or third-party vendors, on a device."
Third party accessories on an Apple device and flying pigs - guess what do they have in common?
Re: Third-party vendors
"With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine." - RFC 1925 (One day late, sigh.)
Samsung need to counter this by patenting the idea of mounting a mobile phone on a tripod.
It doesn't matter if it's silly, or something that really, really shouldn't be patented.
Apple would then patent a tripod on a mobile phone that changes colors if wet and with a glass back that shatters when dropped.
Not the point of the patent
Bayonet fittings are yawn-worthy, though the original Leitz bayonet mount was patented.
A review of the Apple patent shows that the novel feature is that, because the bayonet is so small, dropping a phone + lens is likely to break the phone due to stress concentration at the mounting point. The Apple patent describes a bayonet fitting that disconnects safely on impact. It actually is quite novel. But it exists to overcome a basic problem, which is the fragility of the iPhone.
Re: Not the point of the patent
>But it exists to overcome a basic problem, which is the fragility of the iPhone.
Er, if you have enough leverage, *anything* is fragile. That's just physics. "Give me a long enough crowbar, and I'll crush a Sherman tank" - to paraphrase some ancient Greek geezer.
In this case the problem is not so much the case material of the phone, but the small diameter of the bayonet mount around the lens (compared to that on an SLR, which in any case tend to be used more carefully and with straps, so less likely to be dropped)... again, just physics.
Okay, torque, or 'bending force' is directly proportional to the distance of the force to the fulcrum, hence the SI unit of Nm. Force X Distance. Adding an 80mm long protrusion to a phone and then dropping it will result in orders of magnitude more stress on one part of the phone than would have been the case without the protrusion. 'Beefing up' phone case wouldn't be practical solution - it would add weight and bulk.
Re: Not the point of the patent
So my f1.8, 1000mm lens will likely not be supported by this mount. Probably I shouldn't expect a Nikon to Apple adaptor, either.
Sigh. My dreams are shattered (even if my iPhone won't be).
Then next year they will make a slight change to the fitting so you will need to buy all the lenses etc. yet again.
3rd party lens manufacturers have, since forever, provided ring fittings for different mounting solutions on different makes of camera. So, you can buy a Tamron lens with an Olympus mounting ring.
While your cynical point might make some sense, since the electrical connector on the iPhone was changed after 10 years, it is reasonably likely that a bayonet connector on Apple's phone will remain forward compatible for a very long time as the mechanical implementation internally can be altered (strengthened or whatever) without compromising the interface mechanics or dimensions.
Lacking bayonets
I'm sure I'm not the only one who was momentarily excited about being able to mount a bayonet on an iPod, and then sadly crushed like an iPhone 5C under the cruel rifle butt of reality.
Screw it, there's an iPod Touch in my pocket and a knife in my office desk. Gonna break out the rubber bands and make a combination that's "highly unstealable" and "cause for arrest." BRB
Broken bayonets
A patent for breakable bayonet mountings? OK sounds reasonable. So.....you pop on a lens, drop your phone and the bayonet on the lens breaks, the lens is now useless but at least the phone is not broken, yay :) However, the tiny plastic/metal bayonet mounting pieces are still stuck in the phone. I'm betting a trip to a 'genius' will result in needing a replacement phone to free up the bayonet mounting!
Wait a Moment...
This looks VERY similar to the "Moment" lenses (and adhesive bayonet fitting) that was recently successfully funded on Kickstarter.
Prior Art?
Looks like the ring adapter for external lens mounts that Canon uses on the PowerShot series...
And don't give me crap about "Break Away" features. That is Apple's fancy way of saying that at some point the plastic will break, just like anything else in the world...

Football was never the game for the West Texas boys in Explosions in the Sky. They were more the shy, skinny artist types, spending more time staring into space than cheering on their hometown Midland bruisers. Yet things have come full circle for these current Austin residents and avowed film freaks, who were tapped to score Friday Night Lights, the film about the legendary football program of nearby Odessa Permian. Thirty-eight million dollars or not (the film's two-week gross thus far), this is a waking dream for Explosions, who after three albums of gorgeous, cinematic and melodic post-rock (like a friendly, teenage Mogwai) get to show the big boys how the game is played. Their shimmering swirls and soulful, marching drums convey an inner depth and emotion that no plastic nu-metal score could ever hope to bring. On their own playing field, Explosions' brand of intensity is one of a kind.

Holiday Gift Guide's Giveaway-A-Day: Paws "N" Claws™ Eyewear
Posted in Doggies, For Humans, Holiday Gift Guide, Past Giveaways, Reviews, Reviews and Giveaways on 13. Nov, 2013
PAWS N CLAWS® EYEWEAR is a unique line of eyewear for animal lovers that will raise awareness and funds for animals in need. For every frame or sunglass sold to doctor's offices and optical stores, Eye Deals Eyewear will be donating 2%-3% of the purchase price to the ASPCA®. Our Eyeglasses, Sunglasses, Readers & Accessories are embellished with paw prints, bones and animal prints. Express your love for animals through our fashionable eyewear and feel good about giving back in support of animals.
I learned about Paws "N" Claws™ Eyewear last year. As I searched their site, I couldn't believe that no one had thought about this before – paw-themed eyewear! Almost every pair of glasses sports a paw, bone or animal print design on the frames. Each pair a different color and different style but all sleek and modern, each unique and all making a difference. For each pair of glasses or sunglasses you purchase, a portion in donated to the ASPCA.
Over the past several months I have started noticing problems with my sight. It seems to be worse at night, so I try to avoid driving then. The television guide is blurry and when I am on the computer, I have noticed myself squinting. So far, I am the only person in my family that doesn't wear glasses. While my father and sister have always worn glasses, my mother and brother didn't start wearing them until later in life, which is what is going on with me now. I have always had perfect vision but as I get older, I've noticed some issues.
Just a couple of months ago, I received style PAWS 601 in Purple and Black. I absolutely love them! Below is a picture of me wearing them. I haven't gone to get my eyes checked yet, so you can see the logo on one of the lenses.
Their sunglasses are also super cool. I have a pair of their Claws 602 and I absolutely love them and I get comments on them all the time.
In addition, I really needed some readers, so they sent me a pair of their LuLu Readers in Black with a metal inlay in gold at the temple and multi-colored paw prints. You can purchase the readers for $24.99. See more about the LuLu Readers and check out all of the other cool designs here: http://www.caloptix.com/readers/pawns-n-claws.html
As a pet lover, who wouldn't love these and all of the other eyewear they offer. I see them going big – very big! So, I am counting on you guys to help get the word out about them.

Located near the main city of Lecce, your accommodation is situated in a quite area in the heart of Salento. From "The Green House" any location is easily reachable:
- 5min from the heart of Lecce, the Florence of the south, where the unique architecture, the magnificent art, the friendly inhabitants, shops, restaurants, and cafes will make your stay memorable;
- 10min away from the exclusive Acaya Golf Club;
- 20min away from the most beautiful beaches of Salento and, perhaps, of the world;

Lawsuit says Facebook plunders user names, photos
A federal lawsuit filed on Monday claims Facebook's Friend Finder service uses user names and photos without permission and makes false claims about it usefulness. The feature encourages users to upload their entire body of email contacts so they can be reunited on the social networking site. Facebook often promotes the service …
I knew this was a scam as soon as I went back into facebook. I had not logged on in over a year, and went back in only to add a farmville plot and befriend my wife and hew mom so they could reap rewards. i noted several faces in that system that i knew had also not been on face book in a year or more, and also noted my wife's face. i know damned well she didn't upload a list of e-mails since she doesn't have them in a contact list to upload from (she uses webmail exclusively) and we had just gone through a process to export them for use for holiday cards, so i knew she did not know how to do it on her own. This was clearly them using faces of people I knew claiming-without claiming they had used it as well, to encourage me to. i figured that was shady, if not illegal, and certainly did not use the option.
I'm a huge facebook hater. Its a massive time sync with little return value (unless you like gossip circles). For your trouble, they sell your soul to everyone that will buy it, and continually change the security settings and re-default them to "off" exposing you over and over. i have an account simply to make other people happy with their flash games by being a neighbor. I'd love to see the whole sham come cracking down under lawsuits.
"I went back into facebook (...) I'm a huge facebook hater"
Bzzzt. Does not compute.
In my case: I'm a huge Facebook hater, never got into it, and never bothered about potential scams.
I warned the wife countless times on Facebook horror stories, and thankfully she didn't use it in a long while. She also ignores any Facebook notices updates as well... or is that because we share the same email configuration, and I delete them from her account as soon as I see them? :p
Nah, she reads them too, but then:
"Cricri's wife, Jane Doe poked you"
Me: Who's that?
Her: Dunno.
Me: Thanks for making my point.
Maybe false advertising too?
Is there the possibility of a matching suit in regards to false advertising for the other people who land on that feature/page?
Matching suits...
... and Beatle boots?
And a sign on the back of the car?
about how an invitation sent to (non facebook user) me by a friend within facebook informed me that I might know other seemingly random and unconnected people who are on facebook... and yes I do... but where did they form that link? The people they linked to me are not linked themselves coming from separate areas of my life.
I want to know..... Its MY data, and even if a facebook user enters it to send me a communication... I didn't consent to facebook faffing around with it. Until I submit my name and email address to them they have no authority from me to use it for anything else but routing an email to me.
I have no interest in following the herd to this data gouging bunch of parasites.
Copyright your e-mail
Add (C) 2009, or whatever date, after your email and maybe write them nasty e-mails.
Your beef...
...is not with FB, but with your "friend". They were the data controller for "[YOUR] data" and made it public without consent. How are FB supposed to know which data is and is not precious if it is given freely to them by a third party? (This is not just a FB thing, it affects every company).
The only option would be for FB to contact you personally and then we'd have complaints out FB harassing non-members!
I took the simple approach - as I am not on FB, I made sure all my friends knew I did not want to be, nor did I want my picture on there. A few snaps of me are up there (public events, parties) but not an awful lot, although with face recognition becoming what it is even a little could be too much.
"facebook informed me that I might know other seemingly random and unconnected people who are on facebook... and yes I do... but where did they form that link?"
The link is your email address.
Anyone that uses friend finder, and trusts Facebook with their messenger username and password, really does deserve everything they get (or lose!). They already know too much!
True, but
Their unfortunate email contacts don't
I was under the impression that every single bit of info (included, but not limited to, photos) that users publish via FB became FB's property, for them to use as they see fit (one of the reasons why I don't use the thing). In that case, surely there cannot be any misappropriation. Mildly misleading advertisement, maybe. Was I wrong?
You are almost right
According to FB's terms and conditions you retain ownership of stuff you upload.
However FB have the right to use that info to do various things like help you to find friends or target advertising etc.
The problem is FB has had so many Terms of Use and you get to automatically agree to them
Facebook's Terms of Use not only is longer than the U.S. Constitution but it has changed so frequently Furthermore they automatically assume you subscribe to each new variant.
In my annual Christmas message to friends and acquaintances I added an addendum that says anyone listing my name or e-mail in FB are excommunicated.
Anyone who sends me their "annual Christmas message to friends and acquaintances" automatically gets excommunicated!
Favor to ask, El Reg ...
Could we say "non-remedial" instead of "frivolous" once in a while ?
I'm afraid some screen pixels will wear out.
Is this something I should know about?
Yup 2
"A federal lawsuit filed on Monday claims Facebook's Friend Finder service uses user names and photos without permission and makes false claims about it usefulness."
Oh, yes, they do. If it will get them in trouble, I don't know. But at least 2 or 3 friends whom I asked if they had used the "friend finder" mentioned that they didn't... And at least one said the thing claims I did -- which I didn't. So yeah, Facebook is lying (shocker!).
<aol> Me too. </aol>
I was helping a friend set up a profile picture a while ago when they asked "What's the friend's finder?". I told them that it was a naff way Facebook have of enticing idiots to upload their entire contacts list so the company can map who talks to who and pick up a whole lot of unrelated email addresses to spam. "But you've used it" she said. "No." I replied. She then mailed me a screenshot (BMP, gah!) showing FB's claim that I'd found friends using the friends finder. So I went to the main page and pressed F5 a bunch of times until I could mail her back a JPEG screenshot showing that she used the friends finder.
"Print this out", I said, "and stick it on the wall beside your monitor. Whenever you think of posting anything on Facebook, or putting up any personal information, glance at this picture and you will remember exactly how much to trust Facebook."
Oh, I thought the FB twonk said...
....."this site is completely frivolous and we will fight it vigorously"
when they actually said:
"this suit is completely frivolous and we will fight it vigorously"
My bad.
Still, it's an easy mistake to make.
I want to join the suit
I've never used the upload contacts feature - if my name has ever been falsely presented as someone that has then, yes, I want to join the lawsuit, I have been defamed. How do I find out if I've been presented that way to others?
I wonder why...
... my name on my fecebook account is "Alfred Nonyme"
Our dogs have facebook pages (farmville for friends). Apparently they've found lots of friends using the friend finder. I don't think so, as I've never seen them sat at the computer pawing over facebook.

Yep, we use Riverford for our Vegboxes/fruitboxes. Bifferent sizes depending on needs - right now we're on the mini box. Standard Veg in there - carrot, swede, spuds, cabbage, cauli etc, sometimes you get jerusalem artichokes and suchlike - it varies.
Love it. Always got fresh Veg etc to hand, and what we don't use in a week goes to the rabbit/guinea pig, so there's no waste. Fruit boxes are much loved by the daughter.."OOH! 'NANAS!!", etc.
I find them damn handy at christmas, we order all the family veg for MIL etc through them and take it down.
Missus is also trying the "Well Hung Meat Company"'s meatbox...we'll see how that goes. It's the sheer comedy value of the missus opening the door and asking the guy "ah, are you well hung?"..cracks us both up.

Pender County Schools
The mission of the Pender County Schools is to facilitate student growth and learning so that each child's potential is developed to it's maximum, enabling each to live a quality life and be a contributing member of society. This will be accomplished in a fiscally sound manner, in a safe and secure environment, by highly effective personnel, utilizing the most current technology, in concert with our county commissioners and other community individuals and groups.
The Pender County School System has twelve schools consisting of six elementary schools, three middle schools, two high schools, and alternative school. Included are one year-round school and one A+ Arts School. Construction of a seventh elementary school will be completed for use by fall 1998. Enrollment for 1997-98 is 6052.
The schools are strategically located across the fifth largest county in the state and the school system is the fastest growing system, by rate, in North Carolina. In 1996 Pender County passed a $25 million county bond referendum and the state passed a $13 million bond referendum to help provide new and better school facilities. Pender County Schools' budget for 1998 is $48,125,261, which includes capital project funding of $15,077,522.
All schools are accredited by the State of North Carolina, Both high schools are also accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. The curriculum includes twenty major areas, covered by more than 150 course selections. Students are afforded the opportunity to specialize in (a) college tech prep courses that include four units of credit appropriate for a career pathway or (b) college preparatory courses that include four-year college requirements for the North Carolina University System. Pender County Schools provides counselors in every school, and a career development coordinator to assist both high schools with career planning and school-to-work initiatives for all students.
Programs and services expand beyond the basics to include strong, solid cooperative partnerships with local civic and community organizations, business and industry, UNC-Wilmington, and community colleges. Both high schools offer work-based learning opportunities through job shadowing, internships, and youth apprenticeships in local businesses and industries. Business partners provide resources to Pender County Schools through many creative and effective means.
Cape Fear Partners for Career Success is an organization established through joint efforts on the regional business and educational environments to help develop partnerships and to provide smooth transitions for students moving from school (high school or college level) to the world of work.
The Pender County Board of Education is composed of five members, who serve staggered four-year terms, and are elected at large by the voters of the county in non-partisan elections. The Board has identified $58 million in facility needs over the next ten years and has begun construction and renovation projects throughout the system.

What Mexican Texas Teaches Us about Unbridled Immigration
The history of Texas is unique among western states. First claimed by France, it quickly became part of the Spanish colonies in America, so Mexico included Texas in its successful bid for independence. Shortly after, Texas seceded from Mexico and asked to be annexed by the United States. During the Civil War, Texas was one of the states that seceded under the Confederate flag. All these led to the expression "Six Flags over Texas."The post-Columbian history of Texas, and particularly the period between Mexican Texas and its annexation by the United States, is full of lessons for any student of political science. It is also a window into what may happen in the United States if unbridled illegal immigration is allowed to continue.Newly independent Mexico, wisely knowing that it could not properly defend its new borders in the northwest, made the decision to liberalize its immigration policies, thereby successfully encouraging many new immigrants...(Read Full Article)

WASHINGTON -- Those living in the D.C. area are used to muggy summers with hot and hazy conditions.
So far this week, though, there haven't been any thunderstorms to offset the humidity.
That might change Wednesday.
At 2 a.m. Wednesday, a cold front is just to the north and west of the WTOP listening area.
After we burn off some patchy fog in the morning, a cold front will slip through the region on Wednesday and clear the area by late evening.
Once again, daytime temperatures will be on the warm side, approaching the 90- degree mark and staying in the upper-80s due to increasing cloud cover throughout the day. It will be pretty humid throughout the day.
However, as the cold front passes through the region, there is a 30 to 40 percent chance that some thunderstorms will develop throughout the afternoon and evening hours.
Don't expect a widespread event or severe weather; the usual triggers -- instability in the atmosphere and wind shear -- should be on the low side for Wednesday. We'll have some moisture to work with in the atmosphere, so we might see short-lived storms that could bring quick downpours. We could always use some rain the D.C. region.
Good news: We're not nearly as drought-stricken as we usually are at this time. However, both BWI and Dulles airports saw precipitation deficits for the month of July.
Dulles had 2.09" of rain in July, down from an average of 3.67", and BWI had 2.80" of rain in July, down from an average of 4.07". DCA was at a surplus of rain measuring +0.95".
Interesting note: At these airports, most of the rain fell in the first 15 days of July; the second half of July was mostly dry.
I do not believe everyone will see rain tomorrow, but it would be nice to get some. The next chance of rain is late Saturday leading into Sunday.
Until then, we're looking at a trend that seems all too familiar for this summer - - a few days of hot and humid air, followed by a few days of below normal temperatures and low humidity.
The low humidity arrives Thursday with clearing skies. Temperatures on Thursday and Friday will be slightly below normal.
So if you are headed to FedEx Field for the Redskins first preseason game: enjoy! Great weather for the start of football season!

Did Margherita Missoni Cut Her Hair Off?
Confirmed: Margherita Missoni Has Cut Her Hair!
We've been hot on the investigation trail for nearly two weeks now, but Margherita Missoni has neither confirmed nor denied chopping off her signature brown locks. She's one of our favourite beauties to watch because she never plays it safe or overdoes it on the red carpet — instead staying true to her natural, ethereal-like beauty — often opting for a bright lip and nothing else. True love. In all the pictures Margherita has posted on her Instagram account, her hair looks kind of tucked, not cut, but then there's a shot of her in a vintage swimming costume where it most definitely looks cut! Click through and then have your say in the comments section below — we'd love to know what you think!
Update: Margherita got in touch on Twitter and confirmed she has cut her hair. It's a little longer in the front, and short and blunt at the back!

Leonardo da Vinci is best known for painting the "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper". But he was more than a gifted artist, he was also an engineer and a scientist. Much of his scientific studies were dedicated to understanding the movement and characteristics of water which culminated in his published work, Water Theory: On the origin and fate of water. Ahead of his time, in his water theory da Vinci came close to defining the hydrological cycle, pointing out that water passes through major river systems multiple times, equaling sums much greater than the volumes contained in the world's oceans.
In true artistic fashion, da Vinci was able to sum up the importance of water with his famous quote, "Water is the driving force of all nature."
Between Denver and The Rocky Mountains of Colorado sits the quaint city of Golden, home of MillerCoors, the largest brewery in America. Back in 1873, Adolph Coors chose the site to brew his famous beer because of the high quality Rocky Mountain spring water available in the area. And now, MillerCoors has entered into sustainability history books as the first brewery of its size to become landfill-free.
MillerCoors has been taking steps over the past two years to increase their recycling efforts, investing $1 million for balers, choppers, compactors, colored cans and signage. Efforts to move to a no-waste facility started by removing personal trash cans then lead to a strict color-coded recycling bin system: yellow for aluminum, white for plastic shrink wrap, gray for scrap metal, and green for wood to eventually be ground into mulch.
Company leaders tracked monthly employee progress to gradually reduce the amount of waste they were sending to landfills. As goals were met, they were celebrated with gifts of T-shirts and tree saplings.
MillersCoors is now diverting 135 tons of waste out of landfills every month. Spent grains from the production of the 346 million gallons of beer are used to feed cattle. Discarded glass is sent to a nearby plant to create new bottles. Cardboard is sent to mills. Plastic wrapping is made into grist for composite decking at homes. And metals are taken to scrap yards for re-sale into global commodities markets.
The brewery in Golden is now the fifth of MillerCoors' eight U.S. breweries to gain landfill-free status. According to the company, no other breweries in the U.S. have managed to achieve this milestone.
Like MillersCoors, Dolphin Blue is also strongly committed to sustainability. We only carry products that are made in the U.S. and are, at minimum, made of 20% post-consumer recycled material. We should all cheers MillerCoors for their green efforts and toast to their conscious capitalism. Visit the Dolphin Blue store to purchase eco-friendly products for home and office.
Summer is in full swing, and the longer days and warm temps make now the perfect time to throw an outdoor soiree, whether a small patio gathering or an all-out block party. As you can probably guess, though, these kinds of events often produce a lot of waste — each year Americans toss out enough paper and plastic cups, forks, and spoons to circle the equator 300 times, says the Clean Air Council.
But you don't have to be a part of those negative statistics — green can be the theme of your party, or you can incorporate eco-friendly principles into an event of any kind. Here are some tips for a backyard bash sure to please Mother Earth:
If the party is going to be casual, sending an online invite is a great way to save. Sites like Evite.com offer tons of options to suit any kind of soiree, and it takes just minutes to put together something nice, no design skills necessary. But if a printed piece of paper would be more appropriate for your occasion, look for recycled paper and soy-based inks, like the products offered by Dolphin Blue. One especially fun option is to get paper with seeds inside that can then be planted — it makes for an invite that your guests won't soon forget and sets the tone for your green party. Check out Bloomin's seed paper, which contain wildflower seeds in every sheet.
Think local, local, local. Buying from a farmers market not only gives you the freshest food possible, it also supports your local economy. Go organic when you can, and serve finger foods — that way you can cut down on the waste of disposable plates and silverware (if there's no way to get around using throwaway items, go with a company like Preserve Tableware, which offers plates, tumblers, and cutlery made from 100 percent recycled plastic). Try these black bean and corn quesadillas from celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse; see more green recipes here.
If it's a really big bash and you have tons of food left over, consider donating it to a food bank. Find one in your area at Feeding America's site.
Décor and Centerpieces
Instead of using cut flowers in vases as a centerpiece, try potted plants, which you can then keep or give to your guests as favors. Fruit (locally grown, of course) also makes for a fun decoration, and artfully arranging oranges, lemons, or limes in a centerpiece adds a bright pop of color to your table setting.
Even branches can make an elegant centerpiece (really!). If the party's at night and you need a little light, try soy candles. Look around your house or backyard to see what you might have that would work — anything recycled is eco-friendly, and your creativity will be applauded by your guests.
All but 4% of the trash produced in Sweden bypasses the landfill and is either recycled or used as fuel in their waste-to-energy programs. Sweden is able to generate 20% of the energy they need to heat the country and also provide electricity for 250,000 homes. They're so successful in their recycling and waste-to-energy programs, they're actually running out of trash.
Sweden has begun to import tons of trash from neighboring countries in order to gather burnable waste so they can incinerate it and create energy. Countries like Norway are paying them to take their waste, since it's more expensive for the Norwegians to burn the trash in their own country and they lack recycling programs.
Waste-to-energy initiatives have been introduced in Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, and Lithuania. In the USA, 67% of our waste ends up in landfills. Hopefully someday, we can follow in the eco-friendly footsteps of our European friends.
The U.N. recently released a report extolling the virtues of edible insects as an environmentally responsible alternative to meat as a source of protein and other nutrients. With their high fat, protein, fiber, and mineral contents, edible insects certainly pack a healthy punch! What's even better is that the cost to our environment to raise insects for consumption is far less than the impact of raising large livestock for meat.
Even though entomophagy, or the act of eating insects, hasn't quite caught on in the West (yet!), in many other countries around the world, bugs are eaten with gusto and are often considered a delicacy. So, why should you add bugs to your menu?
The Problem: Meat is Unsustainable
Relying on large livestock (cattle, pigs, and chickens, for example) for one's primary source of protein means one must rely on highly inefficient, greenhouse-gas-producing, and sometimes cruel practices to obtain nutrients. Not to mention the health problems associated with consuming too much meat. With the world's population growing at an incredible rate and the demand for food rising along with it, having enough land to support both people and large livestock will soon become an issue, as well. All this is why many have said that producing and consuming as much livestock as we do is not sustainable.
But, you're not willing to go cold turkey on your meat and go vegetarian? Why not try substituting meat with insects every now and then? All the nutrients, none of the burden on our environment.
Edible Insects: Less is More
Insects are an eco-friendly food option for a simple reason: they need less—less food (some insects can be raised on human/animal waste, which reduces the possibility of environmental contamination and avoids wasting food that could be eaten by humans), less water, less space. They even release fewer greenhouse gases and ammonia than cows, pigs, and chickens.
Many insects' feed conversion rates (the amount of feed it takes to put on 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of body weight in an animal) are much lower than traditional meat sources. The feed conversion rates of crickets, chickens, pigs, and cows are shown below:
|3.7 lbs of feed: 2.2 lbs of body weight gain
|5.5 lbs of feed: 2.2 lbs of body weight gain
|11 lbs of feed: 2.2 lbs of body weight gain
|22 lbs of feed: 2.2 lbs of body weight gain
Large livestock create a larger toll on the earth with problems ranging from habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, greenhouse gas emissions, and contamination from livestock and feed farms and farming practices. In general, insects are more efficient to farm and their impact on the environment is much less severe.
For something we spend so much time and money trying to exterminate, insects may actually be the first step to a solution to many of our world's burgeoning social and environmental problems. All we have to do is get past those legs.

(This blog was written by Dolphin Blue's amazing intern, Elisa Rivera.)
Honey bees are super pollinators and have an enormous impact on the environment. Since the mid 2000′s their numbers have been declining rapidly. Scientist are unable to explain their disappearance but one thing is for certain, the absence of bees would leave much of the world's food supply in question. Without pollinating insect life, fruits, vegetables, and field crops would be obsolete causing extreme hardship for the farm and food industry and leaving their future, and our survival, in question.
See the infographic below to find out more about why honey bees are so important to us and what you can do to save them.
Have you ever wondered how paper recycling actually works? Check out the infographic below and see how your daily recycling efforts are making a real difference.
Dolphin Blue has been a big fan of recycled paper since the 90's. (Remember the 90's? Good times.) We pride ourselves in the fact that our papers contain a minimum of 20% post-consumer recycled content, with many of our paper options repping a 100% post-consumer content stamp. In other words, Dolphin Blue offers "tree free" paper. Yes, we love the environment.
And not to brag on our paper products, but they also offer even more great qualities like being processed chlorine free, being made with Green-e Renewable Energy, being carbon neutral plus, and being Green Seal and FSC certified. We love supporting environmentally minded paper industry leaders like Boise, Wausau, Mohawk, Neenah, and Beckett Concept.
Dolphin Blue would love to provide you with environmentally friendly paper. If you can't find what you're looking for on our new website, give us a call. We're here to help.

Huge amounts of "free," renewable energy are found in, on, and above the oceans of this world. Inevitably, that energy will be tapped as fossil fuels become scarcer and their use is seen to be incompatible with a sustainable environment for humans and other species of life. Even now, offshore wind farms are…

CNN Gives Camille Grammer a Jobby Hilton Hater at . Comments
CNN has hired Camille Grammer to co-host its Academy Awards special this Sunday, Showbiz Tonight: Road to Gold.
In related news: THG will be tuning in to E! for all of our Oscar coverage.
Along with AJ Hammer and Brooke Anderson, Grammer will offer fashion and celebrity commentary on the red carpet of the major event. There's also a good chance she teases us about appearing on season two of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
"We can't wait to get Camille's unabashed take on Hollywood's biggest night," Dave Levine, the Senior Executive Producer for CNN Entertainment and Showbiz Tonight, said in a statement. "She will be perfect for Showbiz Tonight, TV's most provocative entertainment news show."
is there a chance she may see her x walking down the red carpet with her much younger replacement?! That whould be worth watching just to see her reaction
Did you see the hair at the Oscars Designer Challenge? Celebrity hairstylist Roy Teeluck is brilliant. Check out images from the event at IMeanWhat bit.ly/hHKbyD

Congratulations Camille, Time to move on from those fake friends that are constantly trying to do you in. With or without them as frienemies, you are wealthy in your own right, and you have been invited to do a job that will well suit your experience of the years that you have been a part of Hollywood's glamour scene. Walk away from those bickering bejeweled babes who needed you more than you ever needed them. Now is the time for some peace in your life for you and your children!!
Go Camille. She eventually became my favorite after taking the heat and standing up to most-hated-Kyle in the reunion. She makes for good TV. Will definitely watch.
Camille is quite poised and very elegant with a great figure. I really grew to like her at the end of RHOBH and wish her the best! I am looking forward to her commentary. Would love to see Lisa V. too, she's a riot!

Windows 7 cannot read usb flash drives
I have a problem with my PC. It is simply can't read lot of USB drive. I need to restart in order to be able to read it. Sometimes it is working or else it is still fail to read.
I don't know what is the problem but I get this Inaccessible Function error. And when I checked at Disk Management, the file format of the USB flash drive shown as RAW.
I have Ubuntu on my PC (dual boot). And it is just working. Therefore for some reason, my Windows 7 is stupid enough to detect my USB file system.
|My System Specs

If it is RAW, it is not formatted and cannot be read or written to. Format it in Fat32 or NTFS and it will work. It was probably your Linux that mucked it up.

It wasn't. I have another laptop and it can read the FAT32 properly. As I said that it is working if I restart the computer. So now you going to blame my linux. Good answer.

Try this.
Download drivecleanup.zip v 0.8.1 from Drive Tools for Windows. Unzip it to a folder, select the 32bit or 64bit drivecleanup.exe depending on your OS and copy it to the c > windows > system32 folder.
Shut down your Comp, Unplug all USB devices from your computer.( you may keep USB KB and mouse plugged)
On an elevated command prompt type drivecleanup.exe and Enter. After the cleanup close the window.
Shut down your comp and reboot. Plug in your USB devices for a clean and fresh install.
