Snap a chalk line along where your wall will go (Image 1), checking square before you snap.
Tip: It is a good idea with this type of project to create some type of a mockup (cardboard or plywood) to help visualize the dimensions.
Measure from the chalk line to the stud (Image 2). Make marks on the stud where your frame will sit.
Set your mock 2" x 4" into place, checking plumb and level as you place it. Mark the slope of the stud on your 2" x 4."
Cut a bottom plate and a top plate to length, and using your 2" x 4" as a guide, cut studs with the same angle.

Sense Project
We call our peer-based sex education program the Sense Project because we wish to support young people to make sense of their sexuality and make sensible sexual choices. Sense supports Montreal youth's healthy sexual development by giving them the information and tools to make empowering decisions about their own sexual health.
While the program mainly targets youth aged 14-17 in high school settings, our team also visits community centres, drop-ins, and group homes to facilitate sexual health workshops. We promote safer sex practices to reduce risks, and we distribute condoms, lube, and resources to youth during workshops. Like all Head & Hands services, the Sense Project's approach to sex education is non-judgmental, holistic, and inclusive.
In 2005, the Quebec government reformed the secondary school curriculum so that the subject of sex-ed wouldn't be a class on its own. Instead, teachers are encouraged to bring sexual education into their regular classes. The Sense Project has been created so that sex education doesn't slip through the cracks. Let's face it: sex education is important!

Peacework has been published monthly since 1972, intended to serve as a source of dependable information to those who strive for peace and justice and are committed to furthering the nonviolent social change necessary to achieve them. Rooted in Quaker values and informed by AFSC experience and initiatives, Peacework offers a forum for organizers, fostering coalition-building and teaching the methods and strategies that work in the global and local community. Peacework seeks to serve as an incubator for social transformation, introducing a younger generation to a deeper analysis of problems and issues, reminding and re-inspiring long-term activists, encouraging the generations to listen to each other, and creating space for the voices of the disenfranchised.
Views expressed are those of the authors, not necessarily of the AFSC.
Dealing with Sex Offenders-How to Repair and Rebuild
Deborah Ingraham, an activist for restorative justice, is an advisor to Prevent Child Abuse of New Jersey. The following is testimony she delivered before the Criminal Justice Committee, MA State legislature, March 15, on a bill to establish an updated registry, lifetime parole, and possibility of lifetime civil commitment for sex offenders. The bill has been voted out favorably by the joint committee, but is likely to be challenged. This issue, variously framed, will undoubtedly be debated, nationwide, in coming months.
I'm Debbie Ingraham, and I'm an activist for Restorative Justice. I'm also a former litigant who filed an unsuccessful civil suit against a family member for incest, and a former victim advocate.
I bring a 30-year personal perspective of "real life" experiences that come from living with the effects of sexual abuse. I believe that the safety of today's children depends on our ability to fully utilize all the information that we have (not just the politically correct) in a way that includes both victim needs and community safety. In developing legislation that is in the best interest of children, we must go beyond today's anger and revenge, and look at child sexual abuse within the full context of a child victim's life and future relationships. We must also look at it from a prevention perspective.
The legislation before us reminds me of myself when I first became aware of the prevalence and the effects of sexual abuse. As a New Jersey resident, I am well aware of Megan's Law, and initially I was certain that child protection and victim empowerment would be achieved solely through strong and punitive messages to sex offenders about confinement and community notification. I was wrong. I now know that if we want to successfully protect children, and include the needs and desires of all victims of sex abuse, we must also understand why people offend, and how they gain and maintain control of offending behaviors.
I support the containment of offenders who are a danger to children. I support community notification, if and only if it has been developed with input from recovering sex offenders and people who treat sex offender, if it recognizes proportionality, if it is not limited to punishment, if it respects the privacy of victims and their families, if it encourages abusers to seek effective treatment, and if it educates the public about offender issues. Notification that does not include these factors encourages a spirit of revenge and vigilantism, and frightens rather than protects the public.
I oppose this legislation. It tries to solve problems without utilizing important information about the person who created the problem in the first place and the people who can help prevent future abuse-the recovering sex offender and the sex offender treatment community respectively. Although I believe that "Pedophilia Cannot Be Legislated or Punished Away," I also recognize that punishment and litigation surely follow behavior that is deemed by law to be criminal. Punishment that includes public shaming and demonizing may feel good today, but it is short-sighted, and too simplistic for a very complex problem. Over time, I realized that there would be an unanticipated ripple effect from the success stories that address sexual abuse through punishment only. The ripple effect is, that when we stigmatize today's sex offenders, we make it more difficult for other offenders to admit to wrong doing and accept responsibility.
I have a personal understanding of victim needs that will never be met by punishment only of the offender. I am peaceful and free today not because I filed a law suit, became a victim advocate, or tried to change laws-but because I talked with a twice convicted sex offender, Wayne Bowers, and with clinicians who treat sex offenders. If the Kansas civil commitment law had been in effect in 1989, Wayne would have been a likely candidate. He would not have had access to the treatment he received at Johns Hopkins Hospital's Sexual Disorders Clinic under Dr. Fred Berlin. This treatment allowed him to get control of his life. He then went on to educate the public by modeling changed behavior as a result of effective treatment. His public example encourages other sex offenders to seek treatment, and that contributes to the creation of safer communities. In this case, a civil commitment law would have deprived me of one of the most valuable healing experiences of my life.
I found peace when I was able to pose questions to Wayne, and get honest and open answers-with no excuses made-about why someone sexually abuses a child, why they repeat the behavior, why they don't stop, why they don't apologize, and why they can hurt a child sometimes, and be kind at other times. I learned that it is treatment of sex offenders, not punishment, that will bring validation, victim empathy, apology, and restitution to victims. I learned that "my" side of the story was not the only side of the story; and most important, that my experiences with a sex offender did not make a complete picture. I realized that I needed to make peace with the demon, not be a warrior for causes. I needed to understand that the demon was not a person, the demon was behaviors. All the punishment in the world would not bring me the kind of peace and freedom that I found from getting the answers to those questions.
This legislation fails to address three important areas that pertain to prevention, intervention, and victim empowerment. It fails to recognize that if the threat and length of confinement are not proportionate to the offense, and if community notification includes public embarrassment only and does not include offender support, these will discourage others from seeking help in order to stop offending behaviors; and will discourage others who are on the edge of offending from asking for the help they need in order to not cross legal lines. It fails to take into consideration that family members and friends are often the first to become aware of child abuse. As we encourage others to confront their family members and friends who might also be child abusers, we must be sure that notification laws are ones that encourage them to act on behalf of an abused child, by reporting their loved one or friend. Would these laws encourage you to report a loved one of yours who is also a child abuser? If we create climates that discourage offenders from admitting wrong doing, we will also be denying victims who want the opportunity to confront offenders, express anger, be validated, and work toward restoration, the opportunity to do so.
This legislation fails to recognize adults like me who were victimized as children, and have come full circle from anger, silence, and shame, to now having a desire to repair and re-build rather than divide and conquer. I do not wish to impose my journey on others, but nor do I wish to have my journey hindered or left out of the discussions. This legislation does not create a place for me and others like me to pass on meaningful information that we've gained from very long and personal journeys, in a way that might make another victim's journey a little easier, or protect a child from harm.
In the spirit of finding healing solutions and recognizing the needs of all victims, I encourage everyone in this room to do as I have done-talk with a recovering sex offender and a clinician who treats offenders and attend a group meeting of recovering sex offenders. Perhaps it is better said by the following: Truth is not to be found inside the head of an individual person, it is born between people collectively searching for truth, in the process of their dialogic interaction (Bakhtin).

Travelers Releases Community Giving Report On International Corporate Philanthropy Day
In recognition of International Corporate Philanthropy Day, The Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV) today released its annual Community Giving Report detailing the company's corporate and foundation contributions for the year, totaling more than $21 million.
"Our commitment to doing right in the communities where we live and work is an important part of our business culture," said Jay S. Fishman, Travelers Chairman & CEO. "From partnering with Habitat for Humanity, to empowering women and minority entrepreneurs, to providing opportunities for young people to excel in high school, college and beyond, we are proud to support causes that help our communities thrive."
Highlights of the company's giving include contributions in key philanthropic focus areas – education and community development:
- More than $9.5 million — the largest percentage of Travelers' giving for any category — was focused on educational organizations and activities.
- The company celebrated the fifth anniversary of its signature education program, Travelers EDGE (Empowering Dreams for Graduation and Employment), aimed at increasing bachelor's degree attainment and career preparedness. 195 undergraduate students have been directly financially supported by a Travelers EDGE scholarship or stipend.
- Travelers launched a new partnership with Habitat for Humanity International and the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety to increase ownership of fortified homes in low-income coastal neighborhoods. Travelers also funded 35 Habitat builds in 23 states, logging more than 3,500 employee volunteer hours.
- As one of the nation's largest insurers of small businesses, Travelers also began a new education program with Los Angeles-based Valley Economic Development Center to teach women and minority entrepreneurs about the risks associated with small business ownership.
- Travelers employees logged more than 42,800 corporate and personal volunteer hours, up from 31,000 in 2011.
- Travelers employees requested matching funds of nearly $2 million for their local communities:
- In recognition of Travelers employees' volunteer hours, 571 $500 grants went to 411 organizations in 31 states and the District of Columbia, totaling $285,500. Forty-nine states and the District of Columbia received matching grants based on employees' cash donations.
"We are humbled by the stories we've heard from individuals who have benefited from the services, education and opportunities enabled by Travelers and the Travelers Foundation," said Marlene Ibsen, Vice President of Community Relations and CEO of the Travelers Foundation. "While our nation's economy continues to recover, we are pleased to play a role in improving lives and increasing access to opportunity."

Governments must strike a balance between policing the Internet to protect copyright and upholding freedom of expression, EU justice commissioner Viviane Reding said Sunday
U.S. lawmakers stopped anti-piracy legislation in its tracks Friday, delivering a stunning win for Internet companies that staged an unprecedented online protest this week to kill the previously fast-moving bills
Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid on Friday abruptly postponed a showdown vote in his chamber, initially set for next week, on an online anti-piracy bill.
US congressional support for legislation targeting online piracy eroded on Wednesday as Wikipedia and Google led an online onslaught and branded the bills a danger to Internet freedom.
On twitter today, thousands of teenagers and college students flocked to the online network to express their shock that Wikipedia had taken itself offline for 24 hours in protest of the anti-piracy SOPA legislation percolating through U.S. Congress.
With Wikipedia out of action, the National Post's Steve Murray is picking up the slack for the ubiquitous online encyclopedia

What is the Navigation Menu?
The navigation menu appears on the left side of every web page and allows visitors to navigate your website. Here are some important things to know about the menu system.
How do I edit the menu?
On the main "Edit Navigation Menu" page, each menu item is displayed in the order it will be in the actual menu. The links are active as well, meaning you verify the link simply by clicking on it. Beside each menu item you see two buttons: Edit and Delete. The Edit button will allow you to modify that menu item or move it. The Delete button will remove that menu item completely. At the bottom of the page you see two additional buttons: one to add a menu item and the other to create a sub-menu.
How do I configure a menu item?
When you click on the Add or Edit button on the main Edit Navigation Menu page, you will go to a page with a form to configure a menu item. Each menu item has three basic components:
What do I put in the "Linked Page" blank? Can you show me?
You have two basic options for the link portion of the menu item: one of your pages or a page on another site.
What do I put for Menu Text? Can you show me?
The menu text indicates the actual words that are shown in the navigation menu for a particular menu item. You have two basic options for the menu text of menu item as well: either you can let the menu default to the title of the page, or you can specify the text you want in the menu.
What is the "Position" blank for?
You specify any location in the main menu or any existing sub-menus with this. By default, the homepage is first followed by the rest of your pages in alphabetical order. You can rearrange the items in your navigation menu to suit your needs.
How do I create a sub-menu? Can you show me?
Using sub-menus allows you to better organize a site, particularly a large site with many pages. Each chapter of a book could have a link in a sub-menu displaying the title of the book. Or a school could use a sub-menu to group links to each grade. Note that the sub-menu title is not a page and is not clickable. It's simply a heading used for grouping menu items. To create a sub-menu in the navigation menu of your website:
Here is some more useful information about sub-menus:

Antique Georgian Amethyst Parure
The parure of matching set of jewelry was fashionable from the 18th century through to the earlier part of the 19th. Typically included were necklace, bracelet(s), pendant earrings and a pendant. Larger sets could include buttons, hair ornaments, buckles and more.
The Three Graces is very pleased to present a full parure of natural Siberian Russian amethyst set into high carat yellow gold. Characteristically Georgian with closed backed and foil settings, oval faceted amethyst have been encased in sculptural cups of gold with a convex shaped reverse. Granulation, in groups of one and three alternating, dot the rim of all the gemstones.
Gem Stones: The necklace has twenty-two (22) oval faceted gems ranging in size from 15 mm by 17 mm to 7 mm by 7 mm. The pendant displays ten (10) amethyst from 9 mm by 12 mm to 6 mm by 7 mm. Each of the earrings has ten (10) stones ranging in size from 5 mm by 7 mm to 4 mm by 5 mm. Twelve (12) gemstones, averaging 8 mm by 9 mm are in each of the two bracelets. In all, seventy-six (76) natural Siberian amethyst grace the parure. Carat weight cannot be determined, as the depth of the gems is unknown. None has been removed to protect the integrity of the settings.
The pendant has a detachable gem set bale with an integrated loop that enables it to be worn separately or together with the drop suspended from the central necklace. In addition, the pendant can be worn as a brooch. The pair of matching bracelets in rivière style is worn one on each wrist.
The set is in an antique maroon red leather box lined in cream silk which may be original or may have been replaced.
Similar examples of full parures of the same time period can be found in "Georgian Jewellery" by Dawes & Collings. Comparable style rivières and necklaces are on page 74, 75 and 113 of the same book. Throughout the chapter entitled, "Night" are variations of parures from the early 19th century. In addition "Understanding Jewelry" by Bennett & Mascetti has a garnet parure of this era on page 83.
Condition: Excellent. All the gems are hand cut with typical variation in size and shape; some variation to color of the amethysts due to properties of age and foiling; one bracelet has three stones that read paler and more lavender. Brooch clasp replaced with safety probably in the 19th century and hallmarked 14k. One earring has three missing granulations on one rim of a stone—could be replaced but we recommend leaving it as is.
Box is in good condition; some scratching, edge loss and wear; several losses to the surface, especially on underside and at "C" hinges.
Measurements: Necklace is 15-1/2 inches (39.4 cm) in length and more than 3/4 of an inch (2 cm) at the widest. Necklace has a weight of 49.8 grams. Pendant is more than 2-1/8 inches (5.5 cm) in length and is just shy of 1-5/8 inches (4.1 cm) in width. Pendant weighs 12.6 grams. Earrings measure 1-3/4 inches (4.4 cm) in length by less than 1-1/8 inches (2.7 cm). The pair has a weight of 12.6 grams. Each bracelet is 7-3/4 inches (19.7 cm) in length and just shy of ½ of an inch (1.2 cm) in width and weighs 19.1 grams.
Date & Origin: Circa 1810 – 1820; most likely English in origin.

Calling J.T. Kreager lucky within earshot of anyone who knows him would be like waking to discover you've inadvertently Tweeted photographs of your underwear to Oprah. You're going to be left red-faced.
Yes, the Ohio bowhunter was in the right place at the right time to put an arrow through a world-class whitetail last season. The hunt was short and sweet, ending his season just two days out of the chute -- the first of which was spent beside his 11-year-old daughter as she drilled a deer for the second time in her life.
But the guy didn't spin a bottle or roll a dice. He didn't walk to the nearest stand in street clothes with a banged-up bow after frying bacon or pumping gas. The deer's face wasn't in a bucket of apples, and there was nobody driving deer toward him.
J.T. knew which of many stands on many farms offered the best chance at a giant during the unseasonable (and much hoped for) northeasterly wind. It happened to be one he'd hung at his most recent acquisition, which had yielded many trail cam photographs of the wide-racked buck he most wanted.
Co-owner of a small manufacturing company in Delaware, Ohio, and the man behind three hunting-oriented websites, J.T. has plenty of time to pursue whitetails in the fall, and he's almost fanatical about it. His obsession with scent control -- wind, showers, sprays and Scent Lok -- borders on OCD, and he amasses hunting rights by knocking on more doors than a candidate for city council.
J.T. was 20 feet up a tree before 3 p.m. that Sunday. After three hours of enjoying a deerless tranquility, a group of does led the 10-pointer on his most-wanted list to within 15 yards. After the thwack, the deer jumped the fence and ran 50 yards into the hay field, where it collapsed and died.
Except for a 1 6/8-inch-long point at the base of the right P3, the buck is an otherwise clean 10-pointer. The single irregularity isn't long enough to kick the rack into the typical category, so it remains a Perfect, the third best ever arrowed in Ohio.
Its official BTR score is 172. With the 24 4/8-inch inside included, we're talking 196 4/8, a mark very few mature whitetails hit without benefit of more typical points, stickers and kickers.
You can read the rest of the story in an upcoming issue of RACK magazine. Like so many others involving colossal deer from Ohio and Pennsylvania, this one is courtesy of BTR master scorer Ed Waite.

Well, I ended up taking more of a computer break than I intended this week, but I probably needed it, its been good. The scorching hot temperatures in Seattle really zapped my energy, and my studio seems to heat up early in the day, and stay steamy.
I wanted to share these gorgeous images from a book I found at the library over the weekend, 1973's Patchwork Simplified by Alice Timmins. I love the use of color and immaculate piecing. They don't look like what I picture in my mind as 70's patchwork at all, so modern.
I hope you are well. Be back soon.

HOUSTON (Bloomberg) -- Weatherford International, a Swiss-based oil services company, agreed to pay more than $252 million to settle U.S. allegations it bribed officials in Congo and Iraq, and violated sanctions against countries including Iran, Syria and Cuba.
Weatherford will enter into deferred prosecution agreements with the U.S. and agreed to hire a corporate compliance monitor, according to a federal court filing in Houston by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penalties the company agreed to pay include an $87.2 million criminal fine for the alleged bribery, and $100 million to resolve criminal and administrative probes into sanctions violations, according to a Department of Justice statement.
From 2002 to July 2011, Weatherford and its units "authorized bribes and improper travel and entertainment intended for foreign officials in multiple countries to obtain or retain business or for other benefits," the SEC said in its complaint.
The world's fourth-largest oilfield services provider took a $100-million charge in the second quarter last year in preparation for today's settlement involving improper sales to nations under U.S. trade sanctions.
In the second quarter this year, the company estimated a loss of $153 million for payments to U.S. government agencies for investigations related to the United Nations' oil-for-food program and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Alrightyo. First off, I'd like to apologise in advance for all the excessive use of my exclamation marks. Now that you're prepared, you can start reading. Haha! Now, remember this post back in April? Well, the time has finally come. Along with these cutie pie kiddos, we'll all be on Channel 10's The Circle tomorrow! Hooray! I am beyond excited, and so are all the mummies and daddies. It's going to be interesting seeing ourselves on tv! Hah. I'm pretty excited and nervous at the same time. Will I look funny? Will I sound funny? Will the kiddos get lots of air time? These are the types of questions running through my head. Haha. Can't help it! First time on national tv EVER! To be honest, I can't even believe it's going to happen! Is this for real?! Thank you thank you thank you Channel 10!!!
So yup, if you're free tomorrow morning and would like to tune in and watch me and the kiddos on tv, you can certainly do so! The Circle starts at 9am and runs till 11.30am. I've been told I'll come on at about 10.30am. But I'll certainly be glued to the Tv from 8.45am! Hah. I'll try to record it and show it to you if I do. Just so everyone can watch it whenever. Yay.

Intel seeking to speed up development of its mobile chips
Currently, Intel is releasing just one to two mobile chips a year, which is not going to cut it against ARM based competitors like Qualcomm. Additionally, a number of handset manufacturers are making their own chips which adds to the pressure on Intel to produce more mobile silicon. Besides the phone manufactures with their own chips like Samsung, Huawei and Apple, companies like Qualcomm and NVIDIA are formidable competitors in the high to mid range area while MediaTek is now associated with the low-end of the market. It doesn't leave much room for Intel to compete.
New Intel CEO Brian Krzanich, who is a Google Glass wearer, sees opportunity in the upcoming surge for wearable computers and says that Intel will be powering more mobile devices toward the end of this year and the beginning of 2014. In the past, newer equipment was used to make PC chips while the mobile Atom line was produced on older equipment, something that will change under Intel's new leadership. The CEO says that Intel now sees its mobile line as being as important to the company as its Core line of PC chips. "We see that Atom is now at the same importance, it's launching on the same leading edge technology, sometimes even coming before Core (Intel's line of PC chips)," says Krzanich, who currently sports a Samsung Galaxy smartphone but changes up each month to test out what's new.
While Samsung recently announced that an Intel processor will power the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1, Intel has even better news for its supporters. The company last month announced its new Silvermont processor. With improved performance and better battery life, analysts believe that with this processor, Intel is now ready to compete with Qualcomm for a larger share of the mobile industry.

Don't leave Samsung out of the picture because even though Exnos is having problems right now, in SAR rating they're still the lowest.
Lowest rating is best... Not so fast a headache, and so.
18. Shatter (Posts: 2031; Member since: 29 May 2013)
SAR = amount of radiation the phone produces.
14. TheLolGuy (Posts: 483; Member since: 05 Mar 2013)
Wow I seriously hope I we won't have to see an Intel tax on anything mobile... or else I'm goin' home. *sigh*
3. FlushGordon (unregistered)
Too bad they can't even compete with Mediatek
4. Shubham412302 (Posts: 306; Member since: 09 Nov 2011)
dual-core clover trail plus performs as good as exynos 5 octa.
wait for bay trail.
12. TylerGrunter (Posts: 1058; Member since: 16 Feb 2012)
Come on now! Be at least a bit serious.
Clover Trail+ can compete as much compete with Exynos quad and Tegra 3.
This is the difference of Clover Trail+ (the most powerfull of them to be fair and Exynos Octa :
/geekbench2/compare/1970328/21 12149
The Octa swaps the floor with it in EVERY aspect.
It will take at least Bay Trail for Intel to be on that level of performance
19. Shatter (Posts: 2031; Member since: 29 May 2013)
Yes but the clover trail+ is using way less power than a15 does.
24. livyatan (Posts: 753; Member since: 19 Jun 2013)
Even the lower clocked, more frugal version is comparable to dual core A-15.
It has bettet idle power draw, but reaches higher consumption under load.
Read the numbers in the Nexus 10 review on Notebookcheck.net(the best reviews on internet imo)
The load consumption of 9watts is lower than that of the Clover Trail (9 vs over 10 watts)
Considering how vastly more powerful the Exynos GPU is, there goes another bubble bursting in the Intel fanboy face
25. livyatan (Posts: 753; Member since: 19 Jun 2013)
Uh, alright i failed there.. have to correct myself.
Forgot that the surface RT uses Tegra 3.
The Clover Trail(base version) scores are 2.6-6.4 watts actually, whereas the Exynos 5 dual numbers are 9.4w(both idle and under load).
BUT my point remains.. the Octa is actually much superior, scoring 5.1w under load.
5. TechBizJP08 (Posts: 495; Member since: 25 Mar 2013)
compete in what way? power or price?
20. Shatter (Posts: 2031; Member since: 29 May 2013)
Raw power + battery life.
6. livyatan (Posts: 753; Member since: 19 Jun 2013)
Shubham, you should know better than comparing chips like that - SYSTEM on chip vs system on chip, not core vs core, otherwise you are completely missing the point.
Look at the whole picture.
A quad core Clover trail + would be far too large(dual core variant is already about twice bigger than the quad core Snapdragon!), too power hungry and too expensive to even think of being competitive in phones.
Besides, you are wrong about the performance part anyway.
Clover trail + is on pair with Octa in AnTutu(and pointless java script browser benchmarks) which is basically a real life usage emulation, not a true synthetic benchmark.
If you want a true performance picture, look at geekbench.
Here are the results:
2.0Ghz Intel Clover trail + (Lenovo K900) - around 1600 points
1.6Ghz Exynos Octa - around 3100 points
2.3Ghz Snapdragon 800 - over 4000 points
So yeah, sorry for bursting your bubble but ARM based SoC's are still FAR ahead in terms of performance.
Silvermont will only close the gap
13. TylerGrunter (Posts: 1058; Member since: 16 Feb 2012)
Fully agree, but you are a bit off with the Exynos Octa, it takes normally well over 3500. And very rarely under that, so it easily doubles the Core Trail+
/geekbench2/search?page=1&q=sa msung+gt-i9500
23. livyatan (Posts: 753; Member since: 19 Jun 2013)
Thanks for the correction.
I got confused by the.. seemingly deleted!.. article about Samsung GS4 being the fastest and having the best battery endurance.
17. trustory (Posts: 117; Member since: 23 Jan 2013)
why does it matter when the real life usage emulation scores are more or less equal
7. Zeus.k (unregistered)
that would be very interesting. bring it on Intel.
8. Kevinphantom (Posts: 82; Member since: 17 Jun 2013)
Hahaha look at snapdragon 1000 qualcomm trying to share it to the market it has 4 krait 2.5 ghz and adreno 420
9. Sondae (Posts: 195; Member since: 02 Jan 2013)
I hope intel will make a variety from low range, mid and high end processor.
10. lyndon420 (Posts: 1786; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
The article mentioned phone manufacturers who have their own chips. Sammy yes they make chips, Huawei not sure, Apple...everyone knows they don't manufacture their own chips because they just divorced their long time partner Sammy.
11. PapaSmurf (Posts: 8923; Member since: 14 May 2012)
Huawei produces their own chips. They're pushing their own quads on their new flagships, but they're not even close to performance as the S600 or Octa.
15. MartianMe (unregistered)
what do you expect ??? .. this article is written by Alan F ... this phagggot thinks that apple built its own hardware ... the only thing they manufacture is trolls like him n lawsuits... i've told him many times to switch to cnet, that would b perfect for him.

I'm very excited that Intel is finally feeling the pressure and are serious about mobile. Intel is no joke and X86 going mobile is super interneting. Imagine a smartphone that has a Windows Phone but when you dock it a full Windows opens and you have the support for all legacy of applications.
And who do we have to thank for all this? ARM and the outdated battery technology. It's like what's happening with cars and Europe. Emissions standards forced manufacturers to think of efficiency and not just throwing more cylinders at a problem, while at the same time improving the performance. In the same way bad batteries forced companies like ARM to think of super efficient processors and in turn ARM forced Intel into thinking about efficiency and not just throwing more voltage at CPUs, while at the same time competing for performance.
22. RapidCat (Posts: 351; Member since: 12 Jun 2012)
what about the game and apps. not all apps and games support x86

{ Daring Bakers Challenge :: Cherry Strudel }
Posted by Julia Tuomainen under Baking, Daring Bakers, Pastry, Pies & Tarts
[17] Comments
I probably should not share this, but I often talk to myself. It can happen anytime. Anywhere. Once, I was talking to myself while getting out of my car in the driveway, and my partner (inside the house!), thought someone was with me. I am not sure why I talk to myself on occasion, but I am fairly certain it has been a regular part of my life.
Making the strudel for the Daring Bakers challenge this month was no exception.
I have been reading about a few cherry dishes at some of my favourite blogs recently. Even though we are quite a few months off fresh cherries here in Australia, I was keen to incorporate cherry into my strudel. So as a substitute, I bought some preserved sour cherries. With a small additional of breadcrumbs and sugar, this turned out to be a perfect filling.
I was disappointed with my pastry effort. I had quite a few holes as I worked the pastry and attempted to make it paper-thin. The actually dough was quite easy to make so will try again at some point. Despite the hiccups with the pastry, however, I was really happy with the challenge this month. Strudel pastry is not something I had made before.
When the strudel was baked, I needed to take a few photos. It was a little chilly outside and overcast. It has been practically raining non-stop here in Brisbane. So when picking a plate, I reached for black. It seemed to match the drizzle outside. The dark cherry looked nice against the colour, so off I went. I took a few photos and checked in the viewfinder. My 'talking to myself' habit then kicked in. I giggled and then said to the strudel – yes, an inanimate object! – "You are such a moody strudel!" Oh, I tried that in my best Austrian accent, too.
I continued to punctuate the conversation with my strudel with a few other snappy lines. And not one to let a joke die its natural death, I call out to my partner to include him in the banter, and declared, "my strudel is moody, ja?" He walked away grinning, shaking his head.
We have enjoyed our moody strudel the last few nights, slightly warmed with a tiny serve of vanilla ice cream. I do enjoy fruit desserts so want to definitely try this pastry again. And hopefully I have not disappointed my lovely friend M. in Austria. Hopefully it would past the test? I would send a test piece to you in Vienna if I could!
The May Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Linda of make life sweeter! and Courtney of Coco Cooks. They chose Apple Strudel from the recipe book Kaffeehaus: Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague by Rick Rodgers.
{ Apple strudel }
from "Kaffeehaus – Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague" by Rick Rodgers
* Ingredients *
2 tablespoons (30 ml) golden rum
3 tablespoons (45 ml) raisins
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon (80 g) sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick / 115 g) unsalted butter, melted, divided
1 1/2 cups (350 ml) fresh bread crumbs
strudel dough (recipe below)
1/2 cup (120 ml, about 60 g) coarsely chopped walnuts
2 pounds (900 g) tart cooking apples, peeled, cored and cut into ¼ inch-thick slices (use apples that hold their shape during baking)
* Directions *
1. Mix the rum and raisins in a bowl. Mix the cinnamon and sugar in another bowl.
2. Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the breadcrumbs and cook whilst stirring until golden and toasted. This will take about 3 minutes. Let it cool completely.
3. Put the rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with baking paper (parchment paper). Make the strudel dough as described below. Spread about 3 tablespoons of the remaining melted butter over the dough using your hands (a bristle brush could tear the dough, you could use a special feather pastry brush instead of your hands). Sprinkle the buttered dough with the bread crumbs. Spread the walnuts about 3 inches (8 cm) from the short edge of the dough in a 6-inch-(15cm)-wide strip. Mix the apples with the raisins (including the rum), and the cinnamon sugar. Spread the mixture over the walnuts.
4. Fold the short end of the dough onto the filling. Lift the tablecloth at the short end of the dough so that the strudel rolls onto itself. Transfer the strudel to the prepared baking sheet by lifting it. Curve it into a horseshoe to fit. Tuck the ends under the strudel. Brush the top with the remaining melted butter.
5. Bake the strudel for about 30 minutes or until it is deep golden brown. Cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Use a serrated knife and serve either warm or at room temperature. It is best on the day it is baked.
{ Strudel dough }
from "Kaffeehaus – Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague" by Rick Rodgers
* Ingredients *
1 1/3 cups (200 g) unbleached flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
7 tablespoons (105 ml) water, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons (30 ml) vegetable oil, plus additional for coating the dough
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
* Directions *
1. Combine the flour and salt in a stand-mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix the water, oil and vinegar in a measuring cup. Add the water/oil mixture to the flour with the mixer on low speed. You will get a soft dough. Make sure it is not too dry, add a little more water if necessary.
Take the dough out of the mixer. Change to the dough hook. Put the dough ball back in the mixer. Let the dough knead on medium until you get a soft dough ball with a somewhat rough surface.
2. Take the dough out of the mixer and continue kneading by hand on an unfloured work surface. Knead for about 2 minutes. Pick up the dough and throw it down hard onto your working surface occasionally.
Shape the dough into a ball and transfer it to a plate. Oil the top of the dough ball lightly. Cover the ball tightly with plastic wrap. Allow to stand for 30-90 minutes (longer is better).
3. It would be best if you have a work area that you can walk around on all sides like a 36 inch (90 cm) round table or a work surface of 23 x 38 inches (60 x 100 cm). Cover your working area with table cloth, dust it with flour and rub it into the fabric. Put your dough ball in the middle and roll it out as much as you can. Pick the dough up by holding it by an edge. This way the weight of the dough and gravity can help stretching it as it hangs. Using the back of your hands to gently stretch and pull the dough. You can use your forearms to support it.
4. The dough will become too large to hold. Put it on your work surface. Leave the thicker edge of the dough to hang over the edge of the table. Place your hands underneath the dough and stretch and pull the dough thinner using the backs of your hands. Stretch and pull the dough until it's about 2 feet (60 cm) wide and 3 feet (90 cm) long, it will be tissue-thin by this time. Cut away the thick dough around the edges with scissors. The dough is now ready to be filled.

The photos are fantastic. I love the red and brown against the black. I didn't realise you had a "best" Austrian accent. My bf has a "Hans" voice. "Hans: makes occasional appearances when there's German themed food around. I usually tell "Hans" to shut it, to no avail.
Wow, great that you use cherry for the filling. It's in season, so this must taste really good. Good job on this month challenge. Mine is not suppose to go online yet, lol. It's still Monday, the 26th 6 PM.
i talk to myself too.
in front of people.
usually it's when something requires my concentration, so it will go something like:
"mix the lemon and butter until a smooth paste forms" "take part A and insert piece B"
i do it when i'm serving customers too.
nobody has told me that i am insane.
Nice choice of filling, great strudel! Very well done!
I LOVE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY. Your strudel looks divine and the sour cherries add such a lovely European touch. My husband was born in Hungary and I have fond memories of sour cherries ('meggy' in Hungarian) on a visit to Hungary with him. I also have "Kaffeehaus: Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague" by Rick Rodgers – a beautiful book and worth getting if you can find it.
I admire you for making the dough for strudel. I have made it only twice – once in a class at Melbourne's Essential Ingredient with Loretta Sartori and one week later at home. It turned out perfectly in class with all the students helping, but at home I ALSO had holes in the pastry. I probably won't ever make it again as it was such a chore but I had a wonderful feeling of accomplishment after making the strudel. I can imagine you are feeling this as well.
P.S. (I have joined both Daring Bakers and Daring Cooks thanks to your encouragement and will be in the next challenge for both)
Sour cherry filling sounds wonderful, and your strudel and photos are perfection! Amazing job as always
Hehe I think most of us enjoy putting on a good Austrian accent. An "moody strudel" has a certain ring to it. Shame about the pastry but the final result looks delicious!
oh, that looks good– cherry is my favorite strudel flavor, btw! and i do think it impossibile to resist the urge to talk to a strudel in an austrian accent…i know i did!
This looks delicious, Julia! I love sour cherries.
I've finally found you Julia. googled for you, & otherwise with little luck. Finally found a link to you at Lemon Pi. Didn't know you were a DB, else would have caught ya on the blogroll. Love your post, love the filling, love the accent, love the moody strudel…& LOVE the pictures. One day I shall make a cherry strudel too. It sounds just the right strudel to make…except for the 'pitting cherries' part of it. Thank you for stopping by. Really love having you over
Great! Now I'm craving cherry streudel! Thanks alot! LOL
Question-Have you ever tried to make cherry danishes?
hello there
great job on the challenge, I love the flavours your choose, the photos are beautiful too.
So now you see how many of us actually "self-talk"…I am no different.
The cherry filling is so very refreshing from most of the apples that I have seen. Great work.
New here but love this place
Lovely lovely lovely !! XOXO
Cherry Strudel is my favourite! Great choice
Y – too funny. I'm glad I'm not the only one with little voices. My partner often tries to shut me up to with the same outcome. None!
Elra – yes, I think we sneak in a few hours early. I think I was actually late in the day even for Australian time.
the projectivist – I like the connection to concentration. Good point. I do think that many times I talk to myself I am completely engrossed with internal thoughts or instructions. My poor co-workers have to constantly guess whether I'm talking to them or myself. They're slowing figuring it out.
Rosa – thanks. I'm still thinking about your spinach and feta strudel. That looked amazing!
Corry – thank you. I hope to kick my photography up. I've actually enrolled at a local TAFE for a photography course. Need to find out what all those buttons do! I have a field trip today in fact so fingers crossed. I checked your blog to see what you had done hoping you joined DB this month. I'll be looking forward to seeing your challenge next month. I keep checking online to see if it's posted yet. I'm impatient! I have just put that book on my wishlist in Amazon. Did you get that Sherry Yard one?
Lisa – thank you. Your BBQ pork version was awesome!
Lorraine – thanks. I was disappointed with all the holes. I think I will need to let it rest longer like the suggestions. It did taste really nice though, so at the end of the day, if I had to choose presentation or taste I'd have to go the latter. But hopefully better luck next time for me!
Steph – thank you. I've never had cherry strudel before so wanted to give it a try. Yes, I think you're right. How hard is it to talk about strudel without an accent? You had double accent activity with your two selections, too. As a sweet person, I was attracted strongly to your mushroom strudel, too. My sugar radar usually wins out every time.
Eileen – thank you. Sour cherries are great. Particularly pitted ones!
Deeba – ohhhh, so sorry. I must not have left my little link correctly. Thank you for finally finding me then. And thanks to Y for the hook up! Your strudel was great, too. Loved the little individual ones.
Hannah – sorry for your craving. Your cherry pie looked pretty good, too! No, I've never made Danishes before. But I bet Beatrice would have a recipe in her book! I want to 'dedicate' July for making pastry, so maybe I should add Danishes to my list and see if I can fit it in. Are you going to try, too???
Arlette – I can't seem to add a comment to your site. Keep getting an error message.
Navita – thanks for stopping by. Good to find a fellow 'self-talker'!
Gine – thank you. Loved your little strudel cupcakes.
Anita – glad you like. I love cherry, too.
I think your Strudel would pass the 'Austrian Test'. It looks delicious and perfect as it should be. Was giggling while reading your post – looks like talking to your strudel helped to make the recipe work.
Cherries here in Austria turn red now – but our tree is still little – only 7 cherries on there so not enough for strudel.
You should defenitely go on with strudel dough -> I still can't make it without any holes. Good luck with the baking….

December 20, 2014
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- State Rep. Joe Carr's campaign says the Republican raised just $52,000 in the first fundraising period of his challenge of U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander.
Carr told talk radio host Ralph Bristol on WTN-FM earlier Wednesday he had raised "a little bit less than $100,000" in the third quarter. A campaign spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a message seeking an explanation for the wide disparity.
Carr said on the radio show that he had been more focused during the quarter on gaining tea party endorsements than on raising money.
Alexander disclosed on Tuesday that he had raised nearly $838,000 in the third quarter and that his total since the beginning of the year was $3.9 million. He had $2.8 million remaining on hand.

Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC)
One of the country's largest banks by assets and branches, Bank of America also provides credit cards, asset management, and other money-related services.
In 2009 when BAC hit 5 because 'the big banks were going under' and the fed was going to 'nationalize' them I said buy buy buy, when it hit 3 and everyone got really scared I said BUY MORE! Margin Everything to the maximum, take out a HELOC to buy BAC. Now here is your 2nd chance, book value is $20 per share. Cash is over $60 per share.. and they plan to initiate a new fee and 'banking woes' drive it down to $5.50??? BUY BUY BUY in real life you fool! This is a giant opportunity and if it goes lower, just buy more!
I only got 1500 BAC shares...If only BAC will lend me a $1 million, I will then use it to buy more BAC shares...like 150,000 more shares of BAC.....then when BAC multiply its price by 10, pay back BAC's loan and enjoy the profits..Hell maybe open up my own little BAC branch somewhere in the middle of nowhere in the midest.
Im a BAC customer and I think the new fee stinks! I even have a Credit card with them. I am thinking of paying them off altogether and closing my account!
Bank of Americal is going no where and your right trends are showing, and If Im right Bank Of America is going to keep going up, they have been some what weakened but are far from being a lost cause.
If "Cash is over $60 a share" how come Moynihan was desperate to let Uncle Warren unbuckle his pants and do whatever he pleased ?
The per share cash number is not the best indicator since it's offset by almost the same amount of debt. I agree with the sentiment that Bank of America (well, all of the major financial institutions) is a good deal right now.
Anywhere around $5.20 a share is a screaming buy, the company isn't going bankrupt, and has only one place to go, up. New banking fees are going to start coming up from all over the place as the large financial institutions look to replace profits from Dodd - Frank. This PR fiasco will simply be forgotten.
That is a good one!!
I'm with you! Bought more today.
Banks fees have been the norm in Canada for a long time... If every bank does it (within reason) then everybody will adjust. I don't understand why BAC is so cheap. I have to buy it.
I've heard that if BAC dips below 5 and stay there for 30 days hedgefund will all be force to sell as they can't hold any stock under 5 then we may see a massive dump in BAC price.
Could someone elaborate on this?
BAC, along with some other finance stocks I think are grossly undervalued right now. While some banks have more then their shares of troubles, the potential gain when things really rebound is well worth the investment to me. For instance, Citigroup not all that long ago was trading $300, and now it's just over $27/share. While it may never reach those highs again, it's not out of the realm within the next couple years to hit that $60-70/share mark or higher. Obviously with their exposure to European issues, they have some interesting times ahead.
So, I certainly expect some more fluctuations, but companies like BAC, Citigroup, JPMorgan...I expect some nice returns from them in the coming years. People can feel free to shy away all that want. But, all I see right now is opportunity.
Well its 2012 nearly 2013 and your comments are proving correct the share price has nearly doubled since you posted those comments - I wonder if all those negative people are wishing they had listened

2-mile Lake Shore Drive south extension to open Sunday
By ROSALIND ROSSI Transportation Reporter October 26, 2013 6:06PM
Updated: October 27, 2013 11:47AM
A new, two-mile extension of South Lake Shore Drive is set to open by 9 a.m. Sunday, relocating U.S. Route 41 several blocks east and extending from South Shore Drive and 79th to Ewing, near 92nd.
The South Lake Shore Drive extension will carry traffic at a posted speed limit of 30 miles an hour.
The relocated Route 41 puts the road alongside 600 acres that once housed U.S. Steel's South Works plant, which is being redeveloped.
Another difference drivers will notice: They'll be able to drive without having to navigate the five curves that the old Route 41 inculded.
The $64 million extension has crabapple trees and coneflowers planted in the median, LED streetlights, bike lanes and parallel parking.
Paid for by city, state and federal taxes, the roadway includes traffic-sensitive traffic signals at 79th, Farragut, 81st, 83rd and 85th.
The project has been one of Mayor Rahm Emanuel's priorities.
Groundbreaking could start in a year on the adjoining land, the last massive parcel of privately owned lakefront in Chicago. Planed for the site: more than 30 million square feet of commercial and residential space, including 14,000 housing units.
The relocated Route 41 means drivers from the north will find smoother access to the Chicago Skyway and Indiana.
And bicyclists will now be able to ride smooth, asphalt bike lanes from Rainbow Beach Park south to the Calumet River and continue on to the Burnham Greenway and Indiana.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Former UT Foundation Executive Bruce Downsbrough will stay behind bars until his August trial. Downsbrough appeared in federal court Monday for a bond hearing, but the judge denied bond saying he was a danger to society and a flight risk.
Downsbrough was fired from the UT Foundation after being charged with three counts of receiving child porn, one count of possessing child porn and one count of facilitation.
Monday on the stand, KPD investigator Tom Evans said Downsbrough told him he molested two underage boys in Colorado back in the 80s and maybe one boy when Downsbrough was 18 years old. Evans said Downsbrough told investigators he had child porn on his computer because he didn't want to molest any more children. In his words, the porn was his "crutch".
Probation Officer April Wilson took the stand and said Downsbrough plead guilty in 1986 in Colorado to sexual assault on a child and received two years deferred sentence. Wilson said he also plead guilty to sexual assault third degree and received two years probation.
Downsbrough's brother George Downsbrough traveled from Pennsylvania to be a character witness. George took the stand and told the judge he and his brother had a cordial relationship, not close but they kept in touch. He said his brother was responsible and would obey the judge's orders if granted bail.
Ann Siddell who lives in Knox County also took the stand on Bruce Dowsbrough's behalf. She knows him through Knoxville Choral Society. She said she would allow Downsbrough to live with her until his trial. She also told the judge she would give up her internet if he moved in.
The judge ruled there was too much danger to young children to let Downsbrough out of jail. He also ruled Downsbrough was a flight risk because he recently applied for a passport and has money to travel.
His court date is set for August 6. Downsbrough was the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the UT Foundation, a non-profit organization that raises money for the university.

They are similar in price with a couple different features. The Motorola seems to have a slightly higher review and more buys.
Anyone with experience with either? Thanks!
We just bought the Summer Infant Touch. I really like it: ) We did not get one with DS but decided to when we found out we were having 2u2 (less running around for me;))
The only down fall I would say is the battery life is super short. I did not have it plugged in one night and it died halfway through. I just keep it plugged in is all now.
Hope that helps: )
We got the Motorola one for Christmas and we really like it so far. I've been testing it out by spying on the cats, haha.
The picture quality is really good (even in night mode), and it gets signal everywhere in the house (the upstairs bathroom where the cats' litter area is is the furthest possible point from the downstairs living room where I sit and watch 'em from, and we have a rather large house!). I like that it has the little lights indicating how loud the volume is on the camera side, though like a PP said, it never fully mutes. (That said, when the volume's all the way down, the sound on the other side has to be pretty loud to be heard!)
mljohnson:We think it is so far the best picture and it got really good reviews. There are two things I don't like about it; 1- it doesn't go completely silent and 2- the night vision does require some ambient light which we use a night light and then night vision is really good.
We got the summer infant video monitor, but when we set it up, we saw our neighors 1 year old! So I took it back and got the motorola one. We tested it w/ the kids I nanny for, and found that it doesn't go all the way silent, and u will need a night light, but at least I'll know I'm seeing my baby and not the neighbor! (although he's super cute and I adore him). GL

When a basketball team might greatly benefit the message on a poster that would likely be found in a second grade classroom, that probably isn't a good thing.
This second round series against the Indiana Pacers indeed hasn't been a good thing for the New York Knicks, as they find themselves on the precipice of a really disappointing end to an otherwise memorable and refreshing season. Throughout four whole games, the Knicks have been battered and beaten by a team with a crystal clear identity. The Pacers want to slow you down, defend you, out-rebound the heck out of you, and madden you on offense by using the open guy as their "go-to guy". They've done all of those things to a T for just about every minute of this series save one quarter, the fourth in Game 2, the Knicks' only victory thus far.
Pacers coach Frank Vogel said after Game 4 that the Pacers are who they are, and that they don't adjust their game regardless of their opponent. At this point, the Knicks should heed that message: "Be Yourself".
The Knicks didn't accidentally win 54 game in the regular season. They too had a very distinct identity. While they ran isolation plays more often than anyone else, they also shot and made more 3-pointers than anyone else, too. They weren't a great defensive team, but they almost always won the turnover battle. While the Knicks didn't shut teams down with their defense all season, they disrupted them constantly. Causing turnovers helped the Knicks out-possess their opponent all yeah, and because of their offensive efficiency, that generally translated into outscoring their opponent. Or, you know, winning.
In the playoffs and namely this second round grind against the Pacers, the Knicks have been replaced by a foreign version of themselves. Individually, J.R. Smith has done a 180 from the final month of the regular season, the period that won him the 6th Man of the Year award. There's a good chance Jason Kidd actually died a few weeks ago but nobody noticed. Tyson Chandler, despite battling injuries all year, never figured to get this badly outplayed and outmuscled and totally fooled by Roy Hibbert.
And then there's the team as a whole, which in some ways can fall on an individual, Mike Woodson. In Game 4, Woodson made it clear he was ditching the small-ball identity by employing a starting Kenyon Martin instead of Pablo Prigioni, which moved Carmelo Anthony to the small forward position…a position he barely played all season. In what world does it make sense to change the position of your superstar, scoring champion franchise player, in Game 92?
And while Woodson has had a bit of a shocker in this series, it still does fall on the players, too. The Pacers deserve a ton of credit for how they've played, and it's worth recognizing that they gave the Knicks fits all season and might just be the better team. In sports and especially in basketball, the better team usually wins. But the Knicks haven't helped matters, both by straying from their identity but also from simply sucking. some of the hobnobbing around the Pacers' defense hasn't included the fact that the Knicks have missed a lot of open jumpshots, shots they made most of this season. The Pacers do a great job of disrupting your offensive rhythm, but it's the playoffs; if the shots are open, they have to go down or you're going to lose.
Judging by the interweb's reaction to the disasters in Indiana, I think I speak for most Knicks fans when I implore to the Knicks to be themselves. We all want Pablo Prigioni back in the starting lineup and playing about 10 times more than he did in Game 4. for better or worse, we all want to see minutes for Chris Copeland and Steve Novak, guys who played and helped during the regular season. We all want the ball to move on offense, to facilitate through Carmelo Anthony and into the hands of 3-point shooters who aren't afraid to take them. We all want those shots to simply go in. We all just want a win.
The Knicks have won a lot of games this season playing a certain way. We all just want to see that again.

Every unit can fail despite the best efforts of a highly trained team of Manufacturers, Installers and Owners. At any point a simple mistake can bring the customers relaxing satellite television experience to a screeching halt. Here are two quick steps that will fix almost every problem. These steps apply for both the 12 " Road Trip and the 15" Movin' View
Receiver set up
The biggest common problem is that people forget to check the receiver set up. Since the Winegard system listens to the receiver for clues as to which satellite the dish should be pointed at, the dish will often get confused by conflicting signals from the receiver if the set up is not correct. These signals can cause the satellite dish to fail in a dozen ways each more confusing than the last.
To avoid this confusion, the first step in ANY troubleshooting on an automatic Winegard satellite system is to check the receiver set up. For DirecTV set the receiver for an Oval Dish with 2 LNB Locations. For Dish Network the check switch should read SW42. While our dish has only one LNBF and NO switch device, the dish does an effective job fooling each receiver into thinking that is what they are working with.
Switch Settings
The Winegard system must be told which satellite it needs to look for. This is done by setting the switches on the electronics box (under the dome on the roof). These switches MUST be set carefully for the satellite you want to find. Having even one switch in the wrong position or more likely, not fully locked into either the up or down position can cause the satellite dish to enter any of several dozen modes that could cause the system to fail in rather interesting ways.
The first thing to check anytime you look under the dome is the switch setting. Set each switch all the way down then back up listen or feel to make sure it clicks into position. Then set the switches according to the manual for the satellite you wish to find, again making certain the switch is fully in position.
If the switch settings are incorrect or one switch is not fully locked into position, the unit could enter one of many diagnostic or test modes. While in these modes the unit will not find a satellite or may find an unwanted satellite.
Got Voltage?
The final thing I want to talk about is voltage. If the receiver isn't able to get voltage to the electronics, the dish won't find anything. Remove the coax cable running from the coach to the electronics box (under the dome) and test it for 12 -18 VDC. If you have this voltage and the unit still isn't locking onto the signal, it might be time to talk to Winegard Technical Support. If you do not have this voltage, one way to locate this problem is to use a cable that you know is good and run it directly from the receiver's "Satellite In" jack to the electronics box on the dish.

Comments about Bowsers Super-Loft Rectangle Dog Bed:
As advertised, this is an attractive, durable, and thick dog bed. I ended up ordering a second one. It is so thick, it took a few tries for my two greyhounds to get on it the first time. I haven't had it long enough to know how the loft will stand up over time, but so far so good. The cover is very soft and looks like it will wear very well and be easy to clean. This bed has greatly calmed down one of my greyhounds, who had suddenly become anxious (probably due to a change in my work schedule). Since we've gotten this bed, he will lounge on it as I move around the house instead of following me everywhere and wanting to chew on the furniture. That alone made it a great purchase.

The US Environmental Protection Agency has made its much-anticipated decision that greenhouse gases should be regulated under the Clean Air Act, which it enforces.
This is important for two reasons: it clears the way for regulation on carbon emissions, and it is also a formal declaration that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases are endangering health and wellbeing.
It could also have implications for the passage through Congress of the energy measures, including a cap and trade regime, proposed by the Obama administration.
However as Marc Ambinder points out, not only is there still some way to go before it is known whether the decision actually affects carbon emitters, but how it affects them will depend very much on how the EPA decides to use the Clean Air Act. For example, the EPA's background information on the decision specifically refers to "the combined emissions of CO2, CH4, N2O, and HFCs from new motor vehicles and motor vehicle engines" as contributing to the threat of climate change.
From the EPA announcement:
The proposed endangerment finding now enters the public comment period, which is the next step in the deliberative process EPA must undertake before issuing final findings. Today's proposed finding does not include any proposed regulations. Before taking any steps to reduce greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act, EPA would conduct an appropriate process and consider stakeholder input. Notwithstanding this required regulatory process, both President Obama and Administrator Jackson have repeatedly indicated their preference for comprehensive legislation to address this issue and create the framework for a clean energy economy.

Fernando Alonso has downplayed suggestions that he isn't motivated following a lackluster performance in Abu Dhabi.
Alonso and team-mate Felipe Massa struggled with an uncompetitive at Yas Marina as Ferrari endured one of its worst weekends in recent memory.
Although the two-time world champion finished an admirable fifth in Abu Dhabi, he finished more than a minute behind race winner Sebastian Vettel and admitted after the race that it is starting to become a challenge for him to perform at his best consistently.
"It's very difficult. Obviously I have been 12 years now in F1 and more in the smaller categories and I always do 120 per cent every race," Alonso told Autosport.
"Also, I have a lot of attention on me, a lot of expectation in every race I go to to see what I can do different or to improve the result so I know that I always need to do extra, and that's my motivation."
The Spaniard added that finishing second in both the Drivers' and Constructors' Championship would represent a successful season to him.
His fifth place on Sunday has opened up a gap of 34 points to Kimi Raikkonen in third - a gap the Finn is unlikely to close in the last two races - but Ferrari face a far stiffer challenge in the Constructors' race.
The Maranello team is 11 points behind Mercedes, who has consistently been faster than Ferrari this season, particularly in qualifying.
"The motivation now is clear, second in the constructors', still not the main goal but it's still a good goal for us," Alonso continued.
"Second in the constructors' championship will be a reward for me knowing that we don't have the second fastest car as we see every weekend.
"If I finish second in the [drivers'] championship, it's a little personal win.
"Obviously, I race to win the world championship and finishing second is very sad, but from a personal point of view in the season it would be a very good 2013 championship [performance].
"It is true, we need to do better.
"There have been some weekends now where it's not only Mercedes that worries us, it's Lotus, it's [Nico] Hulkenberg, it's Toro Rosso, McLaren so we are dropping a little bit too much and we need to do better.
"The car will be the same in Austin and Brazil, so we need to do better on the track in the setup, optimising it circuit by circuit.
"[And] the drivers need to do better and do perfect laps all weekend because we need to beat Mercedes."

Great Save the Date!

Nice Save the Date
Classic Love Save the Date Magnets We chose black writing on a white background and a burgundy line. They turned out nice. They are simple, but classic. It was what we were looking for.
Decorative Spring Save the Date Magnets I could not be happier with these magnets. The colors I used for mine are much darker, giving this design a completely different look. Don't be afraid to click on different designs and play around with the colors and fonts, it really can transform some of the designs and give it a whole different feeling. The picture I used looks perfect and the quality is great. The magnet is a good weight, not flimsy and I think this size is perfect, not too tiny and not overwhelmingly big. Just an fyi, you won't need to use extra postage to mail these- even with the carrier card and envelope. I actually brought everything-magnet, carrier, and envelope to the post office and had them weigh it to find out. A regular stamp will suffice for these.
Great Quality
Circle of Love Save the Date Magnets We have been so pleased with our decision to order our Save the Dates from Magnet Street! Not only do we love the design, but the quality of the card is excellent! We were also very impressed with timely shipping! I would recommend this site to anyone!

I have to admit, I do watch calories and portion size. Something my husband and I learned and worked at for over a year and half now. Combined we lost over 100 pounds and have successfully kept that weight off. So…this is one of our favorites. A huge portion for about 85 calories (a good cup full) making this a staple side dish in our house.
Butternut squash we love it and make it several ways. This is different and is so yummy, actually my husband didn't even realized it was squash when he first had it.
- Peel the Butternut Squash and remove the seeds.
- Grate the butternut squash using a hand grater.
- Use a paper towel to squeeze out some of the liquid from the squash
- Cut up a couple tablespoons of onion for every cup or so of grated squash. (I have used a red or white onion and this time a shallot. Whatever is on hand is just fine.)
- In a bowl toss the onion with the squash
- For two cups of squash add ½ teaspoon of garlic powder and a ½ teaspoon of onion powder.
- Over med heat warm up a pan and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Add the grated squash. You can make them "pancake" like or just throw it all in the pan and toss while cooking
- Either flip or toss until tender.
We enjoy ours with a little hot sauce on top! Yummo!
