SABR #42 in Minneapolis
One of the best things about SABR is meeting with friends you have made thru SABR. After meeting Abby and Kent last year at SABR41 in Long Beach, you would always see the three of us together. The three of us said we would keep in touch with each other. Less than a month later, Abby emailed us about a SABR/Baseball Prospectus event at Citi Field. Kent could not make the trip in August but I did. In addition to seeing Citi Field, Abby and I went to watch a Cyclone game.
Kent is a Dodger fan and a Red Sox fan. Abby is a Yankee fan and you all know I bleed Dodger Blue.
I was remembering that last year Kent wanted to try his first In-N-Out burger. Well, he asked the front desk how far was the closest In-N-Out. The shuttle did not make it that far so we took a taxi. Because we did not want to miss the next session, we had the taxi go thru the drive thru. We quickly ate at the hotel and headed to the next session.
The following day as the bus tour was heading to Lake Elsinore where we were going to catch the Storms against the Rawhides, I looked out the window and saw an In & Out place, I suddenly remembered that I had my car parked at the hotel! I turned to Kent and told him that I had remembered about my car a day late. I remember the taxi was not cheap. Funny I can remember baseball facts but had completely forgotten about my car.
I did not need a car in Minneapolis. I had been there the year before when the Dodgers played there 6/27/11 to 6/29/11. Both Abby and I arrived in Minneapolis in time to take the library tour and the tour of downtown that Brenda was given. This library has a piano! I love libraries!
To be continue… Pictures coming.
Upcoming Dodger Road Trip & SABR Convention. I Can't Wait!
Dodgers are on the road on a 10 day road trip. They split the first two games in Colorado. Today the game is at 12:10. Nathan Eovaldi goes against Alex White. Then is on to Philadelphia for a four game series. They finish the road trip with a three day weekend in Seattle and that is where I will be with Lorena & Rosie. We leave Thursday morning.
Here is Lorena & Rosie from our trip to San Diego. We are cheering on the nice Dodger start at Petco Park. See you at the airport ladies!
SABR 42Convention
I will also be going to the SABR convention in Minneapolis June 27 to June 30. I will be rooming with my friend Abby who I met last year at the SABR convention in Long Beach. After meeting Abby who is a Yankee fan and Kent who is a Red Sox fan, the three of us hang around together for the rest of the conference. Looking forward to seeing Abby, Kent and the rest of the SABR members attending.
I went last year to Minneapolis during the same days when the Dodgers played there. I spent my birthday there with Lorena, This year Abby and I will be celebrating our birthdays there.
I contacted SABR member Emily who I met last last year at the SABR convention in Long Beach. I also saw her at the SABR Fall League conference. She is a Mariner fan so I am hoping to see her at Safefo Field. Emily is the one with a soda drink. Her mom next to her. The lady in back has a teenage daughter that is so much into baseball & SABR.
I miss my boys in Blue. The last game at Dodger Stadium with the Brewers, I spent it in the Left Field Pavilion. I had a blast there with friends. Thanks Ernest for the ticket! Here is a picture that Jon SooHoo took a few days ago. Here is Deuce, brother Vic to the right of me and Ernest in the back. Deuce & Ernest sit in the LF pavilion.
Here is a group picture from the LF pavilion
Maybe in between Seattle & Minnesota I can sneak a quick trip to Oakland. Dodgers play there in the middle of the week middle of June.
In the meantime It's Time for Dodger Baseball!
Jim Gilliam and the number 19
In the MLB fan blogs, my blog came in at
Jim Gilliam made his major league debut in 1953.
Quoting Jim Murray: They broke him in easy. All he had to do the first year was replace Jackie Robinson.
He proved capable, batting .278 with a team-leading 125 runs for the NL champions. His 17 triples led the NL, and remain the most by a Dodger since 1920; he was second in the league (behind Stan Musial) with 100 walks, and third in the NL with 21 stolen bases.
For his excellent season he earned NL Rookie of the Year honors, as well as The Sporting News Rookie of the Year Award.
Gilliam played his entire 14 year career (1953 -1966) in a Dodger uniform
Junior was part of the first all switch hitting infield in Major League history, with Maury Wills, Wes Parker, and Jim Lefebvre.
Gilliam hit behind Maury Wills when he launched the modern stolen base era with 104 in 1962. He was the ultimate team player sacrificing himself for the good of the team.
Gilliam taught Jim Lefebvre how to bat behind a base stealer, as Lefebvre did behind Lou Brock in 1974, when he stole 118
Gilliam contributed to four World Series clubs and seven pennant winners.
His glove is on display in Cooperstown.
The Dodgers used him at every position in the field except for pitcher and catcher.
In 1965 he was replaced at third base and became a first base coach but after injuries and dismal hitting average at third, the Dodgers activated Gilliam who went on to contribute with his hitting.
Jim Gilliam passed away prior to the start of the 1978 World Series at which time his number was retired and the Dodgers wore a commemorative patch on their sleeve in his honor.
Los Angeles Times sports columnist Jim Murray penned a tribute for Gilliam, the versatile non-star. His effort to describe Jim's end began with these words:
"I guess my all-time favorite athlete was Jim Gilliam. He always thought he was lucky to be a Dodger. I thought it was the other way around."
I love reading old columns from Jim Murray.
In Colorado: Dodgers stop the losing streak by winning 6-2!

Magic Johnson, Dodgers, Vin Scully, Sandy Koufax, & Jackie Robinson Legacy
The LA Times Sport section has an article this morning titled "Icon to Icon" by Steve Dilbeck. This brought a smile to my face knowing that Magic Johnson reached out to Vin Scully. Quoting article "It was interesting," Scully said. "When the phone rang and I picked it up, I recognized that voice. And, as I told him "If it's possible, I can hear your smile." Johnson tweeted on Thursday "Last night I reached out to Vin Scully & acted like an excited little kid speaking to the LA Icon."
Future team president Stan Kasten also called Vin Scully. The next day Magic also tweeted this "Just spoke to legend & HOF Sandy Koufax. Thank you so mch fo taking the time to share some of your vast baseball knowledge." IF I was part of a team buying the Dodgers, those two would have been on my list to call.
Look at this cake that Magic Johnson posted on hisWhoSay page on thursday 3/29/2012 saying "Thank you to AEG, Staples Center & the Lakers for this incredible Dodgers cake they made for me,"
More good news as reported by Bill Shaikin of the LA Times:
Johnson has reached out to Rachel Robinson, the widow of Jackie Robinson. He has invited her to take an active role with the Dodgers' new ownership group, a person familiar with the discussions said Friday. The details of how Rachel Robinson — and the Jackie Robinson Foundation — would be involved with the Dodgers remain under discussion, the person said.
This is a quick post as I am getting ready to go to Ventura. I am meeting with friends for a Girls night out. We are staying Saturday night and coming back Sunday. These are some of my non-baseball friends, well with one of them I used to have a Dodger mini package in the field level for two years. In fact, after we stopped having the mini package and I started having season tickets, I would always invite her for Opening Day. Last two years she has not been able to to go. Anyway, they are understanding that once baseball starts I am not available. I tell them "look at a Dodger schedule to see if I am available" Even then, I might be on a road trip. The last time they invited me to a get together for "Poker night" back in January, it happened to be the Saturday for "National SABR Day" Looking forward to this trip and then get ready for the road trip to San Diego for the four game series!
Nomar Garciaparra (5) days till Dodgers Opening Day in San Diego!

Dodgers Select a Seat Open House and SABR Day.
Checking back at the Dodger Open House last year http://crzblue.mlblogs.com/2011/01/27/dodgers-select-a-seat-open-house-and-sabr-day/ it coincided with SABR Day. This year again Dodgers Open House coincides with SABR day (Saturday 1/28/2012) so why not have it at Dodger Stadium?
The Dodgers annual Select a Seat, an event for season ticket holders, started Thursday 1/26/2012 and it will conclude with the Open House on Saturday 1/28/2012. It is our first chance to have a Dodger dog at the stadium. Don't they just taste better at the Stadium. The Dodgers sent us this picture of the sunrise at Dodger Stadium:
Although I was not feeling well, It was great seeing my Dodger fan friends there like William (Deuce's dad), Dee, Sylvia and Jeanine to name a few. Also Darryl and Leslie who recently became season ticket holders. Jeanine and I met Darryl at the SABR Fall AFL conference. Darryl said that we convinced him to get season tickets. Welcome to the Dodger fan family Darryl & Leslie. Other friends like Lorena, Rosie and Rene will go to tomorrow. Will miss them.
SABR Day Saturday 1/28/2012. I was going to the SABR website at http://sabr.org/ when I ran into this picture! haha, that is me chatting with yes, SABR members, the most knowledgeable baseball fans. Down below in a Tiger hat is Max, another very knowledgeable fan.
If you can make it go SABR Day. There are many locations that are hosting SABR Day from Washington to Vermont to Toronto, to Puerto Rico. For more information go to http://sabr.org/sabrday:
SABR Day is an annual event that brings together SABR members and friends on the same day, regardless of where they live. The third annual SABR Day will be held on January 28, 2012. Regional SABR meetings are open to all baseball fans — though we encourage you to join SABR if you like what you find — and are usually free to attend. Guest speakers often include current and former baseball players, managers, umpires, executives, scouts, writers and authors.
In Seattle, SABR Day will be held in conjuction with the Mariners FanFest. In Minneapolis, the chapter will participate with the TwinsFest. in Arizona it will be at Tempe Diablo Stadium, in New York at the New York Public library. Check the site for more information. I counted 39 locations.
Looking forward to the event at La Habra library. I have never been to this library and I love visiting new libraries! From SABR:
Former Milwaukee Braves All-Star catcher Del Crandall will be joining us for SABR Day at the La Habra Library. High school coach Eddie Alvarez will speak and Eric Dearborn will present photographs of final games at various ballparks. Authors Daryl Grigsby ("Celebrating Ourselves: African-Americans and the Promise of Baseball") and Ron Selter (on .400 hitters) will also speak.
(note to me: grr…second time Ido this post as I lost my original post).
Dodgers get some Gold and the McCourts are Out of Here! Woohoo!
What a great day in Los Angeles for us Dodger Fans! First we get the news that Clayton Kershaw, Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier win Gold Gloves! Congratulations guys!
The next news I received yesterday was that Frank McCourt agreed to sell the Dodgers!
Dodger fans are celebrating everywhere!
I am off to the SABR AFL conference in Arizona early tomorrow morning! details here http://sabr.org/latest/exciting-schedule-deck-sabr-arizona-fall-league-conference I am excited about attending and also to see Dustin Pedroia there. Maybe Ethier will also be there….
Love what John Thorn has to say about SABR here http://sabr.org/content/john-thorn-why-im-sabr-member That is the way I felt when I attended my first SABR convention this year. John just says so well. I was thrilled to meet him this year. Take a look at this baseball card from John Thorn. I got the set of Major League Writers from Terry Cannon of the Baseball Reliquary:
Greg Jezewski Exhibition and the Baseball Reliquary
People ask me all the time "Emma, what do you do when the baseball season is over?" or "What do you now that the Dodgers are not playing?" I tell them there is still baseball being played in the Fall League and there are baseball related events going on. For example I went to SABR (Society for American Baseball Research) meeting on Saturday October 1st. We had Wes Parker as our speaker. Afterwards a new president was elected and at the end we had a baseball books auction.
Saturday October 8, 2011, Thanks to the Baseball Reliquary, I found out about Greg Jezewski "High Ball" exhibition in Santa Monica. Take a look at this piece. I understand that Lasorda has not seen it
You see Greg is a Giant fan. He was sporting a Seals jersey at his exhibition. What he doesn't know is that God IS a Dodger fan. Tommy always talks about the BIG Dodger in the sky. But despise Greg being a Giant fan, he has a nice baseball-themed kinetic sculptures and multi-media paintings at the exhibition in Santa Monica at Frank Pictures Gallery at Bergamot Station, 2525 Michigan Ave., Santa Monica.
The next Baseball Reliquary event I am attending is this coming Saturday October 15, 2011 at the La Pintoresca Branch library, 1355 N. Raymond ave., Pasadena. The "Mexican American Baseball in Los Angeles," book signing and film screening is taking place from 3:00 to 5:00 pm. The event is held in conjunction with the 13th Annual Latino Heritage parade and jamaica. I can't wait for the event and I can't wait to finally meet Richard Santillan co-author of the book. Richard and I have talked to each other on the phone and have emailed each other. Looking forward to meeting him and his wife. BTW, Richard is a Dodger fan and a season ticket holder. I am also looking forward to meeting some of the players from that era like Armando Perez. Here is a link to the event:
Short Video telling Vin Scully "Thank you!" and "We Love you!"
What a great day it was Friday night when Vin Scully announced that he is coming back next year for his 63rd year with the Dodgers! At the time of the announcement the Dodgers were losing 1-0. Next inning the Dodgers like if they knew, stared hitting.
Dodgers score 6 runs in the 7th with Matt Kemp launching his 30th home run to join Raul Mondesi as the only members of the 30-30 club. Matt Kemp now has 31 stolen bases.
After the game I just had to go tell Vin Scully thank you for making the decision to come back for one more season. We Dodger fans are blessed to have Vin Scully with us for 62+ years. Here is the short video that my friend Lorena taped:
Thank you Lorena!
Here is another video telling Vin we Love him.
Well I am off to Dodger Stadium early today as I am a volunteer for SABR today to recruit new members. Come stop by in the Reserved section.

I am an 18 yo boy who decided to do his best to play ice hockey and hopefully join the college team. Well, as I am not living in a country like USA & Canada or Russia, it is really not much difficult to do this when you like this sports.
The problem for me is, currently, I can't say I am fit and I really need to keep myself improving before getting onto ice and all I have is a "free gym" that belongs to the apartment I live where there is treadmill, exercise bike, that "space walk" thing and some dumbbells.
I am 5'9" at 165 lbs and what I want is simply start growing up with the following skills,
* Balance
* Explosive power
* Strength
* Agility
Please do not hesitate to add if I need another crucial one. Could you please share your ideas and advices on what can be done to learn and get better in ice hockey off the ice?
There is no free place where I can skate and I simply need to wait till our school rents the place. When this happens in March, I will be able to skate something like 40mins a week for 1.5 or 2 months... As long as you are not a hockey player of a team, it is unlikely that you can have chance to skate without paying really important money.
That's why I want to train myself to get better on ice quicker.
I know I can't be a NHL star starting to play hockey now, but I will push limits and at least, get over the standards of my country(Turkey). Any kind of practice help will be appreciated!

A few days back I just got my first fancy phone - Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
Been looking at apps and stuff. What apps do you use lots?
spirit - a friend of mine wrote it. And it's 10p on android today ;)
The apps on my frontpage that I use the most are
Gmail, tweetdeck,touch calendar,spotify, a torch app :), camera, k-9 mail (to separate work mail from private) and the allshare DLNA client to stream videos from main computer to phone as my nighttime tv :)
2nd page has wi-fi analyser, mememto for recording things like projector serial numbers before I mount them, swiftp (ftp server so can access phone files over wi-fi) rockplayer for videos, google sky maps, gps status, iplayer and angry birds :)
Notable others - Shazam, juice defender (gives an extra hour or two battery life in a day), easy installer (to just manually load in .apk files from sdcard
And I like Tasker as I can get it to auto unlock the phone and run my own speedlimit app when I plug it into the car power :)
Might buy spirit^^
I downloaded shazam. That will be handy because often I hear a song and think "what's this called"
Still looking for a nice simple notes app. Just want basic note and voice note. Most seem to be packed with features I don't need.
Is there a good app for connecting to shares on servers and printers?
Try Colour note
I use Evernote if I need more than a picture.
Tapatalk - got about 30 forums on there at the touch of a button! Makes life much easier!
i got colour note. Didnt like evernote much as it required an account.
Do any of you use something like the activedir app to reset passwords and stuff when your outside the office and been chased down.
snake .
Memento is a database app that uses barcodes (subuses the ubiquitos Zxing Barcode Scanner app) that can export to csv.
If your thinking of trying to use it for equipment inventory, the resolution of your camera will limit reading physically small barcodes :(
Apps I find really useful:
Tweetdeck (seems so much better than the official Twitter app)
Taptu (great for news)
Remote Desktop (it works so well, although using a mouse on a touchscreen isnt ideal)
FXCamera (for Hipstermatic type photo effects...shame Android phone cameras are usually so bad though)
Adao task Manager (quick way to kill apps and save battery)
HTC Desire here and I use:
Tweetdeck as the default Peep app is dire
Google+ official app
Blizzard Authenticator for WoW
Foursquare official app
SQL Note for messing with SQL statements
QR Droid Private for those square barcodes (QR Codes I think they are called?)
I'm still waiting for TerrariaHB to update so I can use it with the new Terraria patch and ahem...yeah, I have Fing. Thanks to Smoothwall at the conference for that download. :D
HTC Desire S here - using the HTC Calendar (Agenda) and the Mail app for anything other than Gmail, and also:
Google Docs
Skydrive Browser
Whats App
the trainline
Amazon (shopping, not mp3)
Amazon Kindle
BBC News
The Independant
Night Clock
TuneIn Radio
Task Manager

Emergency and Accidental System Activation
If your fire sprinkler system has activated the information on this page may be helpful to stop the flow of water and restore system operation. Your system will likely need to be shut off following a fire (emergency shutoff), after a fire sprinkler head has accidentally discharged, or a water pipe has broken.
Emergency Shutoff
Accidental Discharge Shutoff
|Other Resources to Help in Locating The Water Shutoff
System Repair and Restoration to Service
Once the water has been shut off you will need to contact a licensed fire sprinkler contractor to repair and restore the system.
The Nevada State Fire Marshal maintains a
list of licensed fire sprinkler contractors.
Search the list for contractors with a J license or a G-J license. These
companies are licensed to work on residential fire sprinkler systems.

Discover Ministry Briefing! --> The Best Way To Keep "In The Know"!
Well… that's not a great way to start off 2014, Todd… thinking about your resignation letter from your church!
OK… I get your point.
But maybe you should think about it today… the first day back to work in the new year.
Whether you're happy you're where you are at, or you're just putting in your time (we've both been both places!), there is some value in the exercise of thinking about what you might write in your resignation letter… it helps to to focus on what you're thankful for today.
I wrote a post about this subject over at my ChurchJobs.tv site. I hope you'll take time to read it today and do the exercise. Believe it or not, it could give you a real kick in the pants for 2014 as you reflect back on the good things that have happened (and that are still in store for you) WHEREVER God has placed you!

A lightweight jQuery plugin for complex two-way
data binding in real time.
jQuery.my is a plugin for real time two-way data binding. It mutates object given as data source, reflecting interactions between user and UI.
Data bindings, facade appearance and CSS styling of an app are all defined using single manifest, which is standard javascript object. Manifests are JSONable.
jQuery.my recognize both standard HTML controls and complex composites created using rich ui plugins. Controls built with jQuery UI, Select2, CodeMirror, Ace, Redactor, CLeditor, jQuery Mobile are supported out of the box.
jQuery.my provides comprehensive validation, conditional formatting, complex dependencies, runtime form structure manipulation. $.my forms can run nested, each jQuery.my instance can be a composite control for parent form.
Syntax of $.my manifest is very simple, lean and unobtrusive.
Use Code button to edit source code of examples. Use Run button to exec your edits. To mention, code editors and sandboxes are also $.my apps.
Data is loaded when app starts, and then indexed locally for faster search. All texts in the table are clickable.
Stats source – www.av1611.org. Range control is built using jQuery UI Slider.
Carta Marina is 500 years old map of North Europe. jQuery UI Draggable plugin applied to manage loupe drag.
Mobile platforms may fail to show 5x zoom – image is too large for mobile browsers, sorry.
All control points are draggable, jQuery UI Draggable plugin is applied to manage them.
This demo reflects data to localStorage. Reload page – curve shape remains the same.
Use handles to drag pages and blocks around. Layout you build is continuously stashed under
AdLayout key into localStorage, so you can reload page and take your layout back.
Application itself (without HTML and CSS) is ~100 sloc long and contains 3 nested manifests – app, page and block. Draggable items are built with jQuery UI Sortable.
This example is built using specs of TodoMVC project. Below code is the shortest implementation. Standalone version – jQuerymy.com/todomvc.
The form also illustrates how
$obj.modal() works. Click control's type to popup control's init code.
To run any demo as a standalone page just wrap manifest with this code:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="http://cdn.cloudwall.me/0.9/cw.general.css" />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://cloudwall.me/cw.css" />

// onload
// Manifest goes here
// Place your javascript here
/* Container for CSS code */
An entire set of libs is ~330 Kb gzipped, $.my takes 19Kb.
Plugin set cw.plugins.js incorporates a lot of ui libs, not necessary needed in every single app. Minimal set of libs required to run $.my forms is <90Kb gzipped.
|jQuery 1.11.0
|jQuery. Migrate toolkit also included. Required.
|Sugar.js 1.4.1
|A library that extends native js objects with helpful methods. Required.
|jquerymy 1.0.3

Dow postpones green PE project in Brazil
11:32 AM MST | January 3, 2013 | Rebecca Coons
Dow Chemical tells CW in a statement that it is postponing the second phase of its Santa Vitória, Brazil, biobased polyethylene (PE) project with Mitsui & Co. Dow and Mitsui said that they would form a 50-50 joint venture to build and co-own a 240,000-m.t./year ethanol plant at Dow's existing sugarcane operation at Santa Vitória. A separate memorandum of understanding stipulated how Dow and Mitsui would expand the sugarcane and ethanol venture to include additional mill capacity, and ethylene and PE production units. "The decision to...

The Golden Rams Earn Two Home Victories Against Southern Division Opponents
Anoka-Ramsey Women's Basketball Season Ends at State
The spring baseball season of 2008 will long be remembered as how we dealt with the weather - not too well!

It was also the first time in the history of the Anoka-Ramsey program in which the weather did not permit even one practice on the field and squeezed whatever games (mostly Central Division contests) we could put down on paper into the days that were close to allowable for outdoor baseball into a final 15-day period between April 14-29. In all, Anoka-Ramsey played 21 games, winning 9 and losing 12, missing out on the post-season Minnesota Community Conference tournament.
Injuries and other intangibles that left the roster without depth also hurt during the final drive in which 17 of those 21 games were played. The team was officially eliminated on the final day of play by Central Division champion St. Cloud Technical."It got down to a matter of which teams focused best under the extreme circumstances of spring 2008," said head coach Tom Yelle. "We, obviously, were not quite as sharp as some of the other teams. But our kids hung in there, did their best — both on the field and in the classroom — and pushed it as far as they could push. It just was not to be this spring. I applaud their efforts and their drive. I also appreciate the support of those instructors, who had to bear with our players' unpredictable, ever-changing schedule."

Acer Announces GN245HQ 3D Monitor with Built-In 3D Vision IR Emitter
Don't worry if you're not equipped for HDMI connectivity, it also blasts three-dimensional images through a dual-link DVI connector. In addition, the GN245HQ boasts a built-in 3D Vision IR emitter so you don't have to use up a USB port, and Acer includes a pair of active shutter glasses to get you going.
Other features include a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio (dynamic, no doubt), a rated 2ms response time, and up to 68 percent less power consumption courtesy of a two-lamp design (as opposed to four lamps).
Look for this one to ship in mid-March in the UK for £419.99 (~USD$677). No word yet on when Acer will bring this one stateside or for how much.
Acer GN245HQ - first 3D monitor in the world to support the HDMI® 3D solution from NVIDIA®
London, 8th February 2010 – Acer, always at the forefront in offering technologically advanced solutions, now presents the GN245HQ, the first 3D monitor in the world to support the HDMI® 3D solution from NVIDIA®, enabling users to fully appreciate the array of possibilities brought by the stereoscopic technology.
Offering powerful and exciting graphics as well as top-notch technology, the GN245HQ 3D monitor is particularly well suited for gaming and enjoying movies: the perfect solution for tech-savvy users and gaming enthusiasts.
Acer's new combines Full HD 3D imagery via HDMI 3D or DVI-DL (dual link) connectivity with NVIDIA 3D vision, setting the standard for enhanced 3D multimedia, literally projecting the user into the action for a sensation of full immersion.
This effective yet simple solution is ideal for enhanced home entertainment. With the included NVIDIA® 3D glasses, featuring advanced active shutter 3D technology, combined with the monitor's built-in IR emitter, you can enjoy your favorite movies or games with your friends, as multiple pair of glasses can be used simultaneously.
What's more, with the integrated IR emitter and HDMI® 3D connectivity, the GN245HQ display breaks free from the PC and lets you enjoy 3D TV broadcasting via a set-top box, the best in 3D movies via Blu-ray Disc player, stunning pictures from a 3D camera, and immersive 3D games using a HDMI 3D game console.
This monitor is also ready to let you experience and appreciate new ways of learning that are more compelling and fun, with applications that will literally transport you in the middle of an archaeological site, around the universe or inside the human body.
But enhanced 3D technology is not enough to sum up the GN245HQ. This monitors packs high-end features, to ensure the best viewing experience: an unmatched 100 million:1 contrast ratio for stunning picture quality; Full HD resolution (1920x1080) perfect for 1080p Full HD applications; a spacious 60cm (23.6") LED backlit panel with a 16:9 aspect ratio, ideal to watch movies with the same immersive splendour of a theatre screen; a 120Hz refresh rate, essential for creating the 3D effect and a response time of just 2ms, the utmost in reactivity for real-time gaming.
While offering impressive visuals, the GN245HQ is also a striking sight. A futuristic style with clean, severe lines and sharply angled surfaces underlined its strong character. The elaborate design of the base conveys speed and performance evoking today's fast paced videogames. The power button blends seamlessly with the eye-catching bezel, highlighting the care in designing even the tiniest detail.The GN245HQ falls under Acer's range of EcoDisplays. Making all efforts to reduce our footprint on the environment is the responsibility of everyone today. This is why Acer is committed to developing monitors with an energy saving design, that are mercury free and made of easily recyclable materials. To ensure lower power consumption white LED backlighting technology was adopted, replacing the four lamp design with two lamps, for up to 68% power saving. In addition, LED lamps are mercury-free and safer for the environment whilst delivering better performance. Acer 3D monitors meet stringent industry standards and are compliant with RoHS (the EU directive restricting the usage of hazardous substances) and ENERGY STAR® requirements. Lower energy consumption not only helps reducing costs but also preserves resources and the environment for future generations. Plus, packaging is kept to the minimum and made of recyclable materials.
Pixel pitch is a bit of a moot point these days. Back in the early days of LCDs it was something to look at when pixel pitch could greatly vary. But with these higher res LCDs, the pixels are packed densly enough that pixel pitch is no longer a spec people pay attention to.
It's pretty standard for a monitor of this size to have a pixel pitch right around .27mm
For gaming would 27" be better than 24"?? There are a few sumsung models that seem to have good rating. But if I was going for top of the line willing to pay up to 450.00 what would be the best gaming monitor for that price?? any good review sites?
for example http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=24-001-431&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&Pagesize=10&PurchaseMark=&SelectedRating=4&VideoOnlyMark=False&VendorMark=&IsFeedbackTab=true&Keywords=%28keywords%29&Page=1 has very mixed rating. .3 pixel pitch 1 sec response time
[quote user="Sergeimm"]if I was going for top of the line willing to pay up to 450.00 what would be the best gaming monitor for that price?[/quote]
Many people say that screens with a 120MHz. refresh rate are the best gaming screens out there. I just bought a 27" ASUS-VE276 and got a good price for it from NewEgg.com. It's not the 120MHz. refresh rate screen, but it is just fine for me. It has a 2MS response time.

Breaking News: Dell U2410 for $449 + Free Shipping
I think its safe to say you heard of this model....If Not here are some reviews..
Cnet......Trusted Reviews.....MaximumPC
The monitor that Realneil mentioned is also nice, and so is the Samsung P2770FH, thou the size might overwhelm you and you'll have to tweak it a bit..........Newegg "Verified Reviews" are super positive. I still think you will be very happy with the PX2370.
I still do not understand or want one of these 3D displays whether it be a desktop or HD TV implementation of it. I truly think these are junk devices because we have seen holographic displays as the future of display for decades. However; none of these manufacturers have one, so this is basically a switch and screen cover by the manufacturers. Holographic displays exist, but they are to expensive to produce especially for the mass market, and I am also positive they come to nowhere near an acceptable resolution, or applicable speed. I guess they are beyond HD by a decade, at least for now. We need display's like they had in Demolition Man I think it was where it is a mental/visual real time interface, I think we got a decade to wait for that!
an energy efficient 3-d lcd monitor....Sounds good.
700$... sounds like 100$ away from a motorola xoom.
a motorola zoom... sounds like a 50inch HD tv/ sound system/ killer gaming pc/ a cheap car
But cool none the less.
"What's more, with the integrated IR emitter and HDMI® 3D connectivity, the GN245HQ display breaks free from the PC and lets you enjoy 3D TV broadcasting via a set-top box, the best in 3D movies via Blu-ray Disc player, stunning pictures from a 3D camera, and immersive 3D games using a HDMI 3D game console."
At least its a tv as well!
I love Acer's design on their monitor stands, their so sharp and angled, makes the monitor seem deadly.
I'm having trouble seeing the purpose of designing a new 3-D monitor, when I believe the best 3-D monitor on the market is currently mad by acer too (One with an orange base, slightly lower specs and costing around $400 on newegg)
If I were Acer, I'd make my next big jump to either a 30' monitor, or a 24' glasses free model, allthough I know the later is infantile technology, glasses free 3-D is when I plan on jumping onto the 3-D bandwagon.
Looking forward to a review on this!

The usual fairy tale story has a valiant knight protecting a beautiful princess.

In Knights Contract, you'll use your powers to defend the person you are sworn to protect. But you're not playing the brave champion to a helpless damsel. You're the ruthless scythe-wielding immortal assigned to make sure a resurrected witch stays alive.

Sure the crapy camera can get you killed and the dialog is bad (Heinrich will occasional point out the plot holes in an incredibly humorous way as if he's channeling the players bewilderment), but the worst problem by far are the QTEs.

However, with a cover charge of $15 for all the beer you can drink, it doesn't really matter!
Patrons are especially friendly to military personnel and they'll buy you drinks.
The bartender made me up a specialty drink called "stephanie" because of some girl that used to order it. vI recommend it if you don't feel like having a beer.
A friendly bartender, traditional Irish food, live music, and a rather large selection of beer....what more could you ask for?
Don't expect a gourmet meal and outstanding service though. People come here to drink, so expect a lengthy wait for your server to take your order. The food is typical pub grub.

Asia Stocks Rise On China Recovery Hopes
By GREG KELLER
PARIS (AP) â¿¿ European shares were shaken Monday by Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti's announcement he will resign by year's end, raising worries that political turmoil could derail Europe's effort to end its financial crisis.
The major stock indexes, however, recovered to close slightly higher thanks to stronger trading in the U.S.
Widely credited with restoring confidence in Italy amid a debt crisis, Monti said over the weekend that he found it impossible to lead after former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's party, Parliament's largest, dropped its support.Analysts fear Monti's unexpected resignation could spark a new round of Italian political turmoil and slow efforts to shape up the 17-country eurozone's third largest economy. Berlusconi resigned as premier last year amid sex scandals and legal woes, unable to convince international markets that he could balance Italy's budget and pass necessary financial reforms to save Italy from a Greek-style debt crisis. Monti, a respected economist and former European Union competition commissioner, was tapped to head a government of technocrats to guide Italy. "This (Monti's) decision has clearly been met with anxiety in the markets, with Monti's government seen as imperative to Italy's stability," Craig Erlam, market analyst for London-based Alpari, said in a note. Italy's main stock index, the FTSE MIB, fell 2.3 percent to 15,340. The interest rate on the Italian government's 10-year bond â¿¿ an indicator of how risky investors consider a country's ability to pay down its debt â¿¿ rose 0.30 precentage points to 4.52 percent. Other European stocks also fell in early trading but regained ground after the U.S. market opened. Britain's FTSE 100 was up 0.3 percent to 5,923 while Germany's DAX rose 0.2 percent to 7,532. France's CAC-40 rose 0.1 percent to 3,610. Stocks inched higher on Wall Street after a November sales report by McDonald's boosted confidence in the consumer spending in the world's largest economy. At 1630 GMT the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.2 percent at 13,187.

Apartment 138

Time Out says
Posted: Wed Feb 24 2010
Apartment 138 is the drunk texter of restaurants: dependable, unfussy and ready for you even though it's way past midnight. A sidewalk chalkboard announces fancier fare, but as the nondescript name of this rambunctious Smith Street destination makes clear, comfort food is the order of the day—or small hours of the dawn. It's the kind of place where a basement game room beckons (pool, foosball, Ms. Pacman), as do a comfortable garden and a killer grilled-cheese panini with chorizo and peppers. Indulge its classier aspirations and you'll enjoy serviceable pastas and salads. Better to dive into a juicy, well-cooked burger or a crisp, largely apportioned side of creamy mac and cheese.

Save our libraries… day of protest TODAY!
Books. Where would the world be without them? It is literally my DREAM to have my own library once I'm finally ready to jump on the property ladder. I couldn't give a rats arse about the actual house, providing there is a room which I can turn into my own little Foyles (and who knows maybe the hot lady from behind the counter in the cafe will be there too).
Yes books are pretty important to me and I'm not the only one. Who doesn't enjoy skimming the shelves in their local library, perusing over the unfamiliar titles, dipping into a fresh story. Particularly for the sapphic girl growing up perplexed by her obsession with the drab cotton blouses* of Mrs Wills books can offer those answers so desperately needed. As a child the library was one of the very few places** my authoritarian parents would allow my to go after school. Books offered me escapism. Growing up my library card wasn't just a bit of plastic, it was a ticket to enter many a different world and it was my most prized possession. And a library is not just books. It's a place to meet, to learn, to surf the internet for free!
So the news that the Tories are cutting back on funding to libraries, forcing hundreds of them to close up and down the country brings a deep-felt shudder to my heart. Society needs books. And the ability to access a service that offers them for free is a beautiful beautiful thing. One of the many beautiful things our new government seeks to snatch from our grasps like a lion praying upon a sleeping doe. And might I just add, a Kindle is NOT the same!
If you're as pissed about this as I am (the libraries not the Kindle, although that also gets me pretty riled) head to your local library and join in one of the protests being organised across the country all throughout today. The Guardian have this interactive map for you to have a browse of what's going on. To be honest the maps a bit pants but it does include a list.
For more information on the Save Our Libraries Campaign you can have a look at their website here.

Start anytime: Aikido classes for kids and adults
Aikido is an exciting martial art that neutralizes attacks through the use of throws and joint locks. Anyone can learn and practice aikido since it does not depend on size or physical strength to be effective. Instead it relies on blending with the energy of your attackers and using the energy to throw them off balance rather than meeting attacks with punches or kicks. In aikido there are no competitions and it is a non-violent martial art.
Why practice aikido?
Aikido offers a number of physical benefits: improved overall fitness through increased stamina, flexibility and strength. It also leads to a better understanding of how to defuse conflict both emotionally and physically. People who practice aikido for even a few months note that they are both calmer and more aware of themselves in relation to their surroundings and to other people.
Our dojo
Aikido Shugyo Dojo has been a centre for Aikido training in Toronto's east end for 30 years. Shugyo means "determined training that fosters enlightenment." At our dojo, we work on polishing the body, the mind and the spirit. The teachers and students at Shugyo respect individual differences, embrace learners of all ages and abilities, and value all members of the dojo. The chief instructor of our dojo is Fran Turner, a 6th degree black belt.
Want to learn more?
You'll find lots of information about aikido and about our dojo right here, but the best way to learn more is to drop by the dojo to participate in a class* (or even just to watch one). The first class is free and a qualified instructor will be there to help you and to answer any questions you might have. Aikido Shugyo Dojo offers classes six days a week. We are located in Leslieville on Carlaw Avenue between Dundas Street East and Queen Street East, easily accessible by car from the Don Valley Parkway or the Gardiner Expressway and from a number of TTC routes. (See directions)

Evernote gets physical: Why a software maker's turning to tangible goods
What the hell is Evernote doing selling backpacks and socks? That's a question asked by many yesterday, when Evernote revealed a plan to expand its business well beyond productivity software by opening up Evernote Market. The Market, revealed at the third annual Evernote conference in San Francisco, debuted selling a selection of high-end bags from Côte&Ciel, notebooks from Moleskine, a scanner from Fujitsu, a stylus from Adonit, plus a smattering of T-shirts, posters and the aforementioned socks. The stylus packs the smallest tip on the market and is designed to work with note-taking apps like Penultimate. And the scanner integrates tightly with Evernote software, too — it can scan a pile of varied documents (business cards, receipts, invoices, etc.), then sort and deposit the results an appropriate notebook automagically.
At first blush, selling physical goods seems odd for such a company. To hear CEO Phil Libin tell it, however, the move into retail is a logical one, should you be willing to make a bit of a cognitive leap. The key to this strategy was revealed during his day two keynote, when Libin said that his company is in the business of AI. However, those letters stand for augmented, not artificial intelligence.

This is the first of a new series of images looking at music production and performance and my experiences with both. The image above was taken at a local gig venue during a Battle of the Bands competition; the band in particular being the now-defunct Nod From Afar. This image was a nightmare to capture with no flash at my disposal, hence the insane ISO speed.
Title inspiration comes from the Mogwai album of the same name, but is subject to change depending on how many images I pick from the relevant archives.

Assad has been worried as far back as early 2000s about the US embargoes and falling petroleum income leading to his grip being weakened, he basically went to Erdogan in 06 I think and requested Turkey act as the middleman between a Syrian Israeli peace deal. Haaretz and another paper broke this story at the time which has been confirmed by the likes of the BBC. The double whammy, also confirmed through some leaked memos, is that part of the deal was Syria wanting to distance themselves from Tehran because Assad wants to cement his reputation (the sunni majority population don't hold Iran in high regard despite what the Baath says) as well as curry favour with the US with that move.
This is what those papers I mentioned before were worried about; another favourable dictator falls and a sizeable portion of their border will be under threat.
Has a revolution ever occurred like this??
It's a roughly non-violent uprising, receiving INSANELY heavy violence in response that is dissolving the state through purely suffering through the attrocity, and is non-violently taking city after city like an army as military units defect one by one.
All that and it's WORKING.

- Egyptian workers fleeing Libya say anti-Gaddafi militia control the town of Zuara, 120km west of Tripoli, Reuters reports.-Reports are coming in that Gaddafi forces are attacking Az Zawiyah city in north-west Libya, where thousands are currently demonstrating.
An eyewitness phoned Al Jazeera, saying 50 injured people were taken to hospital in the city after the "Gaddafi Brigade" used anti-aircraft weapons in the assault. Several protesters were reportedly killed.

-CNN: Cameroonians plan anti-government protestsHidden:(CNN) -- Opposition groups in Cameroon are planning "Egypt-like" protests Wednesday to call for the president's ouster after almost three decades in power.
President Paul Biya is running for re-election later this year.
"People yearn to see a change in government. He's been in place for 28 years," said Kah Walla, 45, an opposition member who is also running for president.
Walla, one of the main organizers, said protests are planned in Douala and the capital, Yaounde.
"Our main reason is to ask for free and fair elections," she said. "We also have other demands ... Cameroon has a lot of resources yet our people are living in poverty."
A spokesman for the prime minister was not available for comment and a man who answered the phone at the president's office declined to comment.
Walla said the nation has been inspired by the recent uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt that led to the ouster of their longtime rulers. The protests have ignited a chain reaction that has spread to other countries, including Libya and Yemen.
"We want to take charge of our destiny like the people in Egypt and Tunisia did," Walla said.
The U.S. Embassy in the Cameroon capital urged its citizens to be careful.
"As always, U.S. citizens should avoid all demonstrations, as even peaceful ones can quickly become unruly and a foreign national could stand out and become a target of harassment or worse," the embassy said in a statement Wednesday.
In 2008, protesters took to the streets on the same day to protest food prices.
Walla said they chose the date because it is "symbolic of the ongoing fight" in the west African nation.
Haha, damn. Maybe I've underestimated Sub-Saharan Africa. I hear there was some unrest in Gabon too.
Zimbabwe would be a spectacularly deserving revolution waiting to happened.

Gaddafi is saying that AlQaeda (!?!?)is the one who got millions of Libyans in the streets by providing them with hallucination pills. He also blames what is happening to him as an "evil eye" (عين وحسد).
He's grasping at straws now.
This just in Gaddafi kicked out of Evil Sorceror's Union.
Also why can't the media agree on how to spell his name.
I mean what do you expect from a president talking, supposedly to the people, through the phone.
He basically said the same thing he said the other night.
I think in Arabic it's written Gddafi so that first vowel wouldn't be known unless you know Arabic.

In this week's Travel Report, our Valarie D'Elia has some advice on how to tap into the very first signs of spring in Dutchess County.
When winter finally loosens its grip, it gives way to a delicious change of seasons. "This is the time for when the sap flows in the spring. It's when it's most productive and has the most sugar content coming from our red and sugar maples on our 800 acres here in Dutchess County, New York," says Jacob Griffin of Madava Farms. "Sugar house" seems like too rustic a term for this state-of-the-art operation. The sleek one-and-a-half-year-old Madava Farms could easily be mistaken for a swanky Napa Valley vineyard. Instead of wine, it bottles Crown Maple Syrup, a process tourists can peak at during spring weekends. "It's awesome. It's kind of cool to see how it's made. I didn't realize there was such intense machines to make it. It's really cool to see, and to see the different colors and how they make it and how they purify it, it's pretty cool," says visitor Anne Marie Leamy.
Instead of old-fashioned buckets, Madava's sap flows from the trees to the tanks through a network of tubes leading to collection houses.
Madava's tours include a tasting of five grades of syrup, including maple sugar. A farm stand sells a variety of sweet treats and sandwiches with local ingredients. As for the quality of this year's product, it depends on the weather. "You have to have the combination of freezing nights and warm days for that sap to flow from the trees," Griffin says. Madava is one of 23 maple farms in the Catskills region participating in the upcoming Maple Weekend celebration, which will take place during the last two weekends of March.
