A hit movie for a quarter? It's not the ultimate recession discount it's the new, high-tech pinball! More than just old-fashioned bumpers and buzzers, today's high-speed, computerized machines are virtual-reality worlds often based on entertainment themes. ''We were totally into Terminator 2 every step of the way,'' says Roger Sharpe, marketing director of Chicago-based Williams Bally/Midway, which began designing its T2 game before the film was shot. ''We even had the movie's dailies shipped to us.'' Making machines with media themes has become a smart marketing gimmick, earning pinball 35 percent of the yearly $7.1 billion Americans spend on coin-operated amusements. In its worst year, 1983, pinball drew only 5 percent of the total. Here's our look at the new crop of games:
Terminator 2
From deep within the machine, Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice deadpans, ''Hasta la vista, baby.'' Guns N' Roses rock. Whoosh! You start by shooting balls with a gun rather than a traditional plunger, making T2 faster than a speeding Hunter Killer. Flipping the ball into an Endoskeleton skull causes furious multiball action three are in play at once as a dot-matrix video screen adds extra visuals, such as Arnold zooming along on his motorcycle. World's best machine. A
With a Jack Nicholson sound-alike chortling maniacally, this should be called Joker. Lofting the ball into the skeeball-type Joker face or Batcave tallies millions of points and more cackles from Jack. Knock the ball into the Flugelheim Museum for multiball action. Explosive machine-gun blasts make Batman the noisiest game ever. A
Gilligan's Island
It's dorky, like the TV show, but it's a hoot to play. As you wangle the ball through jungles, lagoons, and mazes, Bob Denver's voice cheerleads you on, along with Ginger's, Mary Ann's, and the Skipper's too. But it's frustrating. There's just no way to know where the ball will emerge next. B
Class of 1812
Some marketing genius must've anticipated the upcoming Addams Family horror comedy but probably couldn't get the rights. So this is an Addams Family emulation with music from Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture: A goony life-size heart beats, and a severed hand gamely gropes. There are frenzied slasher- flick-type yelps and screams. Cooler than Freddie Krueger! B-
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Poor design makes the action sluggish, although a spinning pizza disk adds some spice, flinging the ball everywhere. Ninja Turtle action figures are placed under the glass, but they don't move. Cowa-bogus. C-
The Simpsons
Yawn; everyone's sick of hearing Bart whine, ''Don't have a cow, man.'' And no one should be put through the degrading experience of being teased by the entire Simpson clan as the ball flies into the air, off the playing field, and out of play. D

At the risk of sounding like a finger-snappin', cape-wearin', color-lovin' male-fashion-editor cliché, I have to confess that I spent a lot of my childhood playing with dolls. Not the kind that join you for tea parties, mind you, but the one I could style and make over. She was a statuesque glamazon who never once objected to my fashion experimentationand her name was Barbie.
Convinced she never had anything good to wearI never liked her collections at Toys "R" UsI set out to create new looks I'd seen in fashion magazines. I redesigned outfits using thread, glue, and scissors; I turned skirts into tops, tops into belts, and coats into dresses; I styled and restyled her hair, sometimes adding fabric for headscarves I'd cut from my mother's clothes (she still doesn't know). I was determined to make her look spectacular every time she stepped out of her box. Who cared about the inappropriately dressed Cabbage Patch Kid? My concern lay strictly with one Barbie Millicent Roberts.
So it was sweetly ironic that decades later my career path would take me back to dressing glamazonsonly real ones who went by names like Cindy and Naomi. This was around the time a new model, Nadja Auermann, burst onto the scene with killer legs and dimensions that were widely compared to Barbie's, had Barbie been real. However, Barbie's measurements (5" bust, 31/4" waist, 5 3/16" hips) actually translate to a 39" chest, 21" waist, and 33" hipsclearly not Nadja and something closer to a pole dancer!
I bring up my doll-playing formative years because this month is our annual Body Issue, and for the occasion I enlisted an old friend, who coincidentally turns 50 this year. I mean, how many 50-year-olds do you know who have a face full of plastic and still look this good?
To pull this off, I gained entry into Mattel's top-secret headquarters in L.A., where I styled four individual Barbies. I love the girls I created because they all represent my favorite elements of fashion. My inspiration came not only from the runways but also from the personal style of cool, iconic women and ELLE's own fashion editors. After a day of pinning, prodding, and picking hair color and styles, I'm so excited that the resultsinstead of ending up in a pile on my playroom floorcan be shared with you!

Judge denies new trial in Birmingham arson case
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — A judge in Birmingham has denied a request for a new trial by a former police officer sentenced in connection with a string of arson fires.
AL.com reports (http://bit.ly/14xPuAa ) Jefferson County Circuit Court Judge Clyde Jones made the ruling during a hearing Friday.
Former Birmingham police officer Curtis Thornton was sentenced in July to 100 years in prison after being found guilty of several charges in connection with four fires in Warrior and two fires in Birmingham in 2012.
In arguing for a new trial, attorney Kellie Tubb said Thornton's sentence was disproportionate to the crime because he was a first time offender with no prior record and nobody was harmed.
A second Birmingham police officer has been charged in the case and is set for trial in October.

47% plus of those individuals who comprise American society pay no taxes and are reliant upon the government for the basic necessities of life by receiving some form of federal aid.
These are facts produced and provided by the government itself.
We can be drawn to several different conclusions about this situation.
One possible option is that those who control government believe that certain human beings do not have the cognitive skills and abilities necessary to survive in a modern, technological, age and, therefore, must be cared for; like a shepherd tends a flock. The bell curve — they believe — is static, not dynamic. These people will never be successful. You are doomed to your level of intelligence – or lack thereof.
Another possible option could be that the government — particularly the governing power — believes that it can maintain its grip on that power by simply placating these people, much like the ancient Romans did in providing tribute to the barbarians in an effort to stave off invasion, anarchy, and chaos. The 47% are then docile and under control.
Another possibility is that the leadership (e.g., religious, political, racial, ethnic, or cultural) of the 47% constantly informs the 47% that they have no hope of improvement, no pathway to success, no opportunities to succeed and — given this mindset — the 47% then simply settles back to be looked after, devoid of all hope. Yet they still spend their government money (usually with businesses aligned with the ruling elite) and they still vote. The bell curve, though, is dynamic, not static, and anyone within the 47% can improve themselves and succeed in life – if they try. If they can muster the necessary will in the face of the constant propaganda of their own leaders.
A final possibility is that certain people have recognized the intrinsic weakness of any Democracy – which is that the majority does indeed rule. And, if you manipulate the people by creating dependencies, division, envy, and strife, you can direct the ire of the 47% plus toward those who have achieved hard-earned success in the society. "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" sounds so compassionate, so caring, so progressive — and yet it is simply communism.
In the scenario outlined above, there are political interests intent only on power and they will gradually attempt to push that 47% figure up to 51%. A voting majority. You then have – much like a cancer — succeeded in overwhelming the host. State control. The Collective. The Hive. The Commune. Mediocrity. More takers than producers. Chaos.
Finally — there are those who tend to think that every person who is in business is evil. They have allowed the corporate greed of the few to taint the many. The unrestrained pursuit of profit without morality and ethics is evil. Enlightened capitalism, conducted within the boundaries set by morality and ethics, can achieve great things — but only if the dream of such great things is not vilified by those who seek only to manipulate and control the 47% plus to their advantage. Profit is not evil — but improper pathways to reach it are.
You have to decide which of these situations is true – and in which percentage you find yourself.
The most important thing, however, is what you think your government believes. Their actions will speak volumes — listen carefully.

The food was lovely and so was the rooms, the beds were comfortable and everything you needed was there. The staff are very friendly and always make you feel welcome as soon as you arrive. The bar staff are lovely, they come and talk to you, they do entertainment themselves.eg. the greek dancing, that you cannot miss if you go there.
Overall, I am very pleased that my mum and dad booked the holiday there as it will be a 2 weeks I will never forget!

Top Local Tips for Kefalonia
The Local Sqaure The local sqaure in Lixouri, has an area where children of all ages and nationalities get together to play. There are cafes around the square that anyone can sit and have a nice freddocino or if you have a sweet tooth, go to the Pastery shop which is located on the sqaure. It was nice to sit with my husband and have a nice drind and watch the children play ball. I did't have to worry about keeping my eyes on them all the time as they knew where we were and we were in constant view of them. A very family oriented community.
Hire a Car Hire cars are cheap and exploring the island is a must
Car Rental Shop around before you go on holiday for car rental as there are some online discounts which cen really help. We paid 96 euros for 3 days before we went and some while we were away paid 150 euros

The Acorn Awards & Future Leaders for the Hotel & Catering Industry
Hello everyone,
I hope you are all still enjoying this unseasonably mild weather in London – hard to believe we are almost into December and we have barely had one really cold day so far!! Hopefully I am not tempting fate by mentioning it on my blog so that I bring a big freeze down up on us!!
We have as ever been kept very busy in the hotel – this week we are upgrading one of our most important systems in the hotel – in our revenue department which is going to streamline a lot of our booking, rate loading and forecasting systems – all of which are quite laborious and manual at the moment so this upgrade to our systems is going to certainly make it so much easier for us to review key data for the hotel. So we are really looking forward to embracing these new processes and system as it will enable us to make much more strategic decisions for the hotel. So Vincent and Cyril in our Revenue Team have a few really busy weeks ahead of them trying to juggle the day job with a big system integration but I know they are looking forward to all the benefits the new system will bring to them – and even though I am not a very system savvy person – so am I!!!!
As we are coming to the end of the year I am spending a lot of time with Adam Morriss as we shape our sales and marketing activities for the next six months – this is a time where try to contact as many clients as possible to thank them for their loyalty to us especially those who have placed the lion share of their r business with us all year and also have the final discussions for agreements, contracts and potential business for next year – so we have a number of lunches and meetings to try and reach out to as many of our contacts we can. Our US team James, Chris, Michael & Charlene also do a sterling job of this on our behalf across the pond – hard to believe it is only four weeks to go until Christmas now – I don't think I have ever known a year race past so quickly.
This week as well, we are keeping our fingers crossed for one of our star performers, Adrian Murfin, who works in Equus Bar and has been shortlisted down to the last ten finalists to win an Acorn Scholarship. The Acorn Scholarship is an independent award created by previous winners of Caterer and Hotelkeeper's Acorn Awards.
Now in its 10th year, the Scholarship's objective is to seek out talented individuals within the catering and hospitality industry and help them realise their ambitions and reward their determination.
Adrian practiced his presentation in front of all the management team last week and very gamely took all the constructive feedback that they generously shared with him – but I have to say whether he wins or not we are all extraordinarily proud of him and it goes without saying that on behalf of everyone we all wish him lots of luck and success in his presentation in Exeter this week! I will keep you posted on how he gets on!
A few weeks ago I spoke about the Mentoring programme that we have embarked on in the hotel for our future leaders of tomorrow – I have my first meeting with Umesh Dalal who is currently working in our Meeting & Events Department now – having previously held the position of Assistant Restaurant Manager and aspires to achieve a senior management position within our industry – so I am looking forward to working with Umesh to help and assist him in any way that I can to enable him to achieve his aspirations. I think mentoring is something that has become very important the world of business – not to tell people how to solve their problems and challenges but to help people to step back and perhaps view things form a different perspective. I now have the joy of mentoring four different people at different stages of their careers and I have to say it is one of the more rewarding aspects of my job!
Speaking of job I am afraid dear bloggers I am going to have to take leave of you again as, as always there are a number of demands on my time this afternoon. I hope you all have a very successful week and not to stress you but just in case you have forgotten there are only 26 shopping days left until Christmas!!! If you are in the area pop in and treat yourselves to our Festive Afternoon tea – a great way to relax and unwind after a busy and frenetic few hours in the shops!!

I understand that if you're Misery Raccoon Taylor Momsen, you're life is not necessarily about making sensible choices. This is a rugrat that left a lucrative and high profile career as a "Gossip Girl" to fulfill her rockstar fantasies as a singer in a band. Mental note, Taylor: Most of us just play Rock Band, you know? That said, she's proven that her music thing is more than just a passing fling; Momsen is still rocking out with her lady cock out. Here she is filming a new video for fellow musician Tomomi Itano (she's also of the Japanese mega-group AKB48), in deeply inappropriate shoes and a perilously short dress that could double as a wee rainproof tent.

Here are the top five questions in 2012 that my beloved New York Yankees face. It may not be a pretty season…
5. Is Michael Pineda a Number Two or a Number Four?
It is hard to imagine a worse transition for a young pitcher than what Pineda faces this year. Virtually every single factor will be far worse this year with the exception of the team offense: the park, the defense, the division, the pressure, the environment, you name it.
But that team offense makes a big difference. The last time I checked wins are still a category in every fantasy league, and when pitchers like Ivan Nova can win 16 we can be forgiven for thinking Pineda can win 20.
The stuff is there, the skills need work but are very solid and supporters have to hope that second half fade is not his true level. The scales right now are roughly even for his fantasy value in 2012, so it is boom or bust.
4. Can Derek Jeter do it one more time?
Virtually every fantasy pundit, this one included, believed Jeter's fantasy value was as dead as Julius Caesar. Then came his 3,000th hit and a torrid stretch that brought back memories of the good old days.
Consider, though, that the power loss is real. The loss of speed and steals is real. The only value here is an empty batting average and a dozen steals. And that assumes the second half is a resurgence and not a fluke, which is no guarantee. My view is that the first half is the true skill level, so a 5 HR .270 BA 10 SB season is a strong possibility, making me want to retch in the process.
3. Can Alex Rodriguez rebound?
Yes, and if you draft Brett Lawrie ahead of him you deserve what you get whether it is good or bad. A-Rod was just fine in the first half last year before being dinged up. We are giving him a big mulligan for last year since virtually every skill erosion seen in the second half – GB%, Power, LD% – can be explained by his maladies. Think .30-.100-.290 and draft him for the last time at a price that will get big profits; the end is near, but it is not this year folks.
2. How many home runs will Curtis Granderson hit?
Which one of these does not belong: 12-11-12-13-14-21? These are Granderson's HR/FB rates over the last six seasons. Every other skill metric was within expectations, so any conclusion about the park or a resurgence is not based on any real evidence. Granderson is destined to be an Alternate Universe Hall of Famer, but you can write in stone that he will not repeat 41 HR. Of course, if you disagree you can cite Paul Konerko, about whom we wrote something similar last year.
And the number one question facing the Yankees is….
1.Can Mark Teixeira get his BABIP over .250?
More than anything else, even more than the success of the pitching staff, may hold the key to the team's (and yours if you draft him) success. With expected declines expected in many spots on offense Tex is the key. His skill set is a good example of the "what the hell is going on†method of analysis. Your guess is as good as mine; there is no skill erosion to speak of other than a baffling inability to get hits on balls in play in a good hitter's park. He is just as good as he ever was but for that BABIP.
The lesson here is that not everything has a cause. If you flip a coin enough times you get streaks that are not explained. Randomness is just next to gravity in terms of the force they exert on fantasy players, and they are both the bane and boon of the fantasy player's existence. There is no reason that his BABIP erosion must have a cause, so we ignore it, chalk it up to randomness and project a BABIP back in the .330 range, with a top ten season and possible MVP award.

Actress Olivia Munn Fights Hunger in Oklahoma
Joins Local Celebrity Council
July 11, 2011
OKLAHOMA CITY - The Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma announced today the addition of actress Olivia Munn to its Celebrity Council. Members of the nonprofit's Celebrity Council are dedicated to raising awareness and encouraging others to take action in the fight against hunger in Oklahoma
Olivia Munn was born in Oklahoma, raised in Japan and graduated from The University of Oklahoma. The actress and best-selling author is a correspondent on Comedy Central's Emmy-winning hit "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and recently starred in the NBC sitcom "Perfect Couples" created by hitmakers from '30 Rock,' 'Friends,' and 'Seinfeld.' Her first book, "Suck it Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek" debuted on both the New York Times and LA Times Best Sellers lists. Continuing to write, Olivia has written articles for The Wall Street Journal and Cosmopolitan Magazine.
With a busy schedule, it's clear Hollywood heavy hitters have taken notice of Munn's rising star and talent. In theaters September 13, Munn stars opposite Sarah Jessica Parker and Pierce Brosnan in the Wesinstein Co.'s comedy I Don't Know How She Does It, from the screenwriter of The Devil Wears Prada. She's currently shooting the movie The Babymakers with Paul Schneider (Parks and Recreation; Lars and the Real Girl) and will begin shooting her new HBO TV Series from Academy and Emmy Award-winning writer/creator Aaron Sorkin, titled More As This Story Develops, starring alongside Jeff Daniels, Emily Mortimer, Alison Pill and Dev Patel.
"When I learned that one in five children in Oklahoma struggles with hunger, I knew I had to help. I'm excited to work with the Regional Food Bank, an organization that's already working so hard to feed the hungry families, seniors and children in my home state," said Munn. "Oklahoma has given me so much and I plan to do my part to raise awareness about this serious issue and help stop hunger in our state. My grandmother always had a warm meal for someone in need... It's the Oklahoma way, and I'm proud to be an Oklahoman."
The Council consists of a committed group of Oklahoma's community leaders and local celebrities who have stepped up to raise their voice in the fight against hunger. Members include: singer/songwriters Graham Colton, Sherree Chamberlain and K.C. Clifford; Mayor Mick Cornett; radio personalities Jeff "Magic Man" Roberts, David Kelso and Mary "O" Esparza; Project Runway star Johnathan Kayne; Biggest Loser contestants Neill and Amanda Harmer and Lisa Mosley; Biggest Loser winner Danny Cahill; reality star, Travis Brorsen; Miss America 2007, Lauren Nelson-Faram; TV personality, Gary England; local artist, Ryan Cunningham; and photographer Samantha Lamb.
"We are incredibly grateful for the ongoing support from our Celebrity Council members," said Rodney W. Bivens, executive director of the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma. "Their celebrity status allows the Food Bank to reach a much larger audience and take hunger awareness to a whole new level."
Oklahoma is the fifth hungriest state in the nation, where nearly 600,000 people are food insecure. Even though the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma provides enough food to help feed more than 90,000 people each week, it is still not enough. In fact, the Regional Food Bank's partner agencies are reporting up to a 50 percent increase in need.
To learn more about the Regional Food Bank or to make a donation, visit regionalfoodbank.org or call 405.972.1111. Connect online with the Regional Food Bank at Twitter.com/rfbo or Facebook.com/regionalfoodbank.

The Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma is a private, 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that acts as a link through which the food industry and community may donate food and other goods. The products are then distributed to nearly 700 schools and charitable feeding programs in 53 central and western Oklahoma counties. In fiscal year 2011, the Food Bank distributed 46.1 million pounds of food and product to help the charitable community effectively feed people in need. Since its inception in 1980, the Food Bank has distributed more than 400 million pounds of food to feed Oklahoma's hungry. Visit regionalfoodbank.org or scan the QR code below to learn more.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

> Why DIRECTV?
DIRECTV gives you the most TV for your money.
DISH and DIRECTV both claim to offer the best value.
What DISH doesn't tell you is their basic package strips out 42 of your favorite channels, including AMC, Animal Planet, BRAVO, FX, MSNBC, NFL Network and Hallmark — and replaces them with channels you've never even heard of. Plus if you're a sports fan, DISH will make you pay extra to watch your local teams. With DIRECTV's basic package, you'll get what DISH doesn't give you and a whole lot more.
DIRECTV has the most HD channels, period.
DISH and DIRECTV both claim to offer the most HD channels.
DISH doesn't tell you that they count 57 video-on-demand titles as full "HD channels." They also count part-time, game-only channels. With DIRECTV, what you see is what you get. If a 24/7 channel is in HD, we count it, just like you would. And we just announced 30 new HD channels, bringing our total to over 160. DIRECTV has the most full-time HD channels. Period.
DIRECTV offers FREE HD.
DISH and DIRECTV both claim free HD.
DISH's free HD promotion may seem like a good deal, but it'll end up costing you. DISH requires you to pay your first bill even before your service starts. Your additional receiver fees will be higher.
DIRECTV has the most sports, period.
DISH and DIRECTV both claim to offer the best sports.
If you want the best and most sports anywhere, you've got to get DIRECTV. DISH claims to cover all your sports "needs". Needs? DIRECTV simply offers the most sports, as well as the most sports in HD. Every NFL game, every Sunday, every MLB game, the most golf, the most tennis, the most soccer...we could go on. When it comes to sports, there's just no competition.

Origin: From fragilis, formed on frag-, the root of frangere. Cognate with frail, fraction, fracture.
Webster Dictionary
easily broken; brittle; frail; delicate; easily destroyed
Fragile is the fourth studio album by English progressive rock band Yes, released on Atlantic Records. It is the first Yes album recorded with keyboardist Rick Wakeman, who replaced Tony Kaye in 1971, and the first with cover art by Roger Dean, who would design many of the band's covers. Fragile was the band's international breakthrough, and was well received by critics then and now. It is somewhat unusual in that four of the tracks are performed by the entire band, while the other five showcase each of the group members. The album was commercially successful in the UK as well as in the US: in November 1971 it entered the UK Album Chart at No. 7, which would prove its highest position. It later reached No. 4 on the US Billboard 200 during a stay of 46 weeks. Its release in the US was held back for two months because of the chart momentum of their previous record, The Yes Album.

I was actually quite supportive of John Reese's Blogrush experiment. It was spammed to death, the quality of the network went downhill rapidly, people clicked the adverts a lot less, and the targeting system was a bit of a longshot.

What a difference 24 hours make.
A few days ago I was honestly prepared to rip a product to shreds. It wasn't that it was a bad product, but it wasn't as well prepared as it should have been, and from what I can tell it was due to an honest communication error between a well respected online marketer and his programming team.
SpeedPPC V3.0 Released
As we are having a bit of an affiliate marketing news week, I thought it would be good to mention that SpeedPPC v3.0 has just been announced, and for the next week it will be available at $100 discount.
Social Power Linking Review
There is only one small detail that prevents me from immediately whipping out my credit card in the next 30 seconds and buying Social Power Linking, but for many people that small detail is actually the primary reason they would make a purchase.
Volusion Review Followup
I have a couple of great things to report regarding my review of the Volusion Shopping Cart. (note I was compensated for that review)
Volusion Now Integrates With Aweber
This was one of the problems I had with Volusion as a solution. Their own email system is primarily for sales notices, and once you grow a subscriber list beyond a certain number of users, they recommended moving over to using Intellicontact.
Exclusive – Pay Per Post Direct Changes The Paid Review Landscape
Pay Per Post had first mover advantage within the paid review arena, and initially concentrated on providing a framework for the purchase of mass market buzz marketing.
Competing services such as ReviewMe and Sponsored Reviews were launched, and these concentrated on one-to-one requests for professional reviews.
iBegin Source Review
iBegin Source is an interesting concept, and aims to make local business data both more accurate and cheaper than ever before.
I hesitated initially in accepting this paid review, because I wasn't sure I was capable in giving it the level of in-depth coverage I normally give reviews, mainly because I have never really got involved with local search in the US – the Altantic Ocean is quite a large separator. iBegin Source do plan however to offer European data soon, so it might become more relevant for my own use.

I'd build around this 280X @ £250 (including Battlefield 4): Sapphire Radeon R9 280X Dual-X OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Card with BattleField 4 PC Game Included [11221-00-20G]
If you want to go higher than that, the 290 is as high as you need to go - better cards than the 290 are a lot more money for what little boost you gain. Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card with BattleField 4 PC Game Included [21227-00-40G]
AMD is perfectly capable for gaming, particularly if Mantle takes off (an AMD API designed to be more efficient than DirectX, so reducing CPU bottlenecking; early days but it's in a few upcoming games, including BF4). It also saves you a lot of money over an i5, not just on the CPU but on the motherboard.
Samsung 840 EVO, as @Arthur suggests, they're the best price/performance balance and Samsung have always been very reliable as SSDs. 240GB if you can, they're better performance than the 120GB (more chips in parallel, the 120GB only uses half the available paths on the controller). Not many games benefit from SSD installation to any noticeable extent IME, so don't worry about having to get one big enough for your Steam library - stick a second HDD in and use that, Steam lets you install to multiple devices these days.
Work out a PSU rating @ eXtreme Power Supply Calculator, you don't need as much as GPU manufacturer's suggest, I doubt you'll want more than 500/550W in a PSU for a single GPU system. Get a decent brand name PSU - Antec or Corsair are the usual recommendations. Don't scrimp here, if cheap RAM goes you buy new RAM, if a cheap PSU goes you could be buying an entire new system.
Pick a case of your choice. Go with something sensible, you'll end up regretting anything slightly weird as they become a pain to work with (trust me on this). Pick a motherboard that suits your chip and don't go overboard, so much is on the CPU now that there's not much to differentiate motherboards unless you're mad into overclocking.
8GB RAM is the right amount. Optical drive of your choice. Think that's it.

- Federal Agencies

While the McHenry County EDC is a regional Economic Development entity, we assist municipal EDC's in their efforts to encourage, support and positively affect their communities.

Arianna Huffington to Joe Biden: "Resign!"
What's the best way for vice president Joe Biden to take a stand against escalating the war in Afghanistan? Resign! At least that's what Arianna Huffington thinks. Last night, on CNN, Huffington lobbied for Biden's resignation, saying, "there is nothing more noble than resigning over a matter of national security."

This was so easy and delicious. I did embellish the tuna a bit the way my Italian dad taught me...I added finely chopped celery and a small minced shallot. Will not only make this again, but the Salsa Verde here will go with many dishes.

Very good. I didn't have capers so I used my own salt preserved lemons. The taste was fresher than with mayo. Next time i will try with capers also.

Super tasty! I may never go back to mayo again! I was a little skeptical at first with using parsley, as parsley taste can be strong, but the other ingredients worked really well with it. The lemon zest and juice with olive oil and garlic seem to blend so nicely, making the flavor a perfect blend of tangy and herb. I LOVED it!

Let's talk wolves. And books. Specifically books about wolves. No, not of the were- variety. I don't want anything to do with the full moon and wolves that are people 29 days out of the month (at least not on this list). Today I'm only talking about dogs' wild cousins. The only thing making it on this list are my top FIVE books featuring wolves.
1. Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craighead George
(This is the book that made me love wolves.)
2. The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs! by A. Wolf as told to Jon Scieszka, illustrated by Lane Smith
(So funny!)
3. The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling
(You probably remember the bear, Baloo, from the movie, but Mowgli is actually raised by a wolf family.)
4. The Wolves in the Walls by Neil Gaiman, illustrated by Dave McKean
(Anything living in the walls of your house is super scary!)
5. Wolves of the Beyond #1: Lone Wolf by Kathryn Lasky
(Okay, so I haven't actually read this one yet, since it comes out on Dec. 29. But it takes place in the same world as Guardians of Ga'hoole, so it's for sure awesome.)
And that's my list! Have you read any of them? Agree? Disagree? Leave your thoughts and lists in the comments.

|Minimum Stay
|2 - 4 nights
**Please note that if the 'Location' tab does not show a general map to our property, there may be a problem with your Internet browser. Try accessing the site using a different browser such as 'Google'.** This home has only been on the vacation rental market for two years and is in like new condition. You will not be disappointed as you walk through the natural wood paneled entry way into this immaculate home with hardwood floors on the entire main level. The large spacious den opens through double doors to the deck for a breathtaking view of the blue ridge mountains. In one corner of the den you will see the rock fireplace with gas logs, and along the far wall is a fully-equipped designer kitchen with granite counter tops and a dining bar. The adjacent dining area is surrounded by windows and also opens to a deck which spans the entire back of the house for long-range mountain views. The 50-inch HD flat-screen television with HD satellite receiver and DVD/VCR player, wireless fiber-optic internet service, and a land telephone line provide your entertainment and communication needs. The master bedroom, with its own door to the deck, has rustic cabin furniture with a queen bed and a private bathroom. This luxury bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower with a fixed and hand-held nozzle offering variable shower options. The adjacent walk-in closet has two sets of shelving for linens or clothes as well as an abundance of rods to hang clothes. In this bedroom there is also a television connecting to the satellite receiver in the den, providing for that late-night show while you doze off in bed. Off the den is another bedroom with a queen-size bed, chest of drawers, dressing table, and closet. There is a private door to a full bathroom which opens via a separate door into the den for use by other guests. On the far end of the house is the second 'master' bedroom with its own private bathroom and a combination tub/shower and walk-in closet. Beautifully appointed with a traditional queen bed, dresser, and lingerie chest, this bedroom also has a door to the deck.
Carpeted stairs lead to a full daylight basement. A gracious number of windows offer scenic mountain views from both the basement den and a bedroom furnished with 4 bunk beds. A bathroom with a combination shower/tub is across the hall from the bedroom. The basement den has a 42-inch television, dvd player, and is on a separate satellite receiver from upstairs. The perfect get-away for the kids, there is a foosball table, game table for puzzles, playing games, etc. For the adults, there is a granite wet bar and refrigerator tucked away in the corner. You may park your car in the basement garage or just steps away from the front door.
Inside the house has all the comforts and conveniences of home, but the real treasure is the surrounding mountains easily viewed from the deck that spans the back of the house. Relax in four Adirondack chairs as you look out over the valley to Appalachian Ski Mountain or Grandfather Mountain in the distance. Cook out on the gas grill and enjoy a meal at the patio table under the covered area of the deck.
Minutes away in nearby West Jefferson, there is everything one should need in several grocery stores and drug stores, Walmart, Lowes, along with a number of restaurants and antique shops. A must visit is Shatley Springs, a family-style restaurant that has been an icon in the area for years, as well as the Ashe County Cheese Company and the art galleries on Jefferson avenue in West Jefferson. Attractions in Boone and Blowing Rock include Grandfather Mountain, Mystery Hill, Tweetsie Railroad, Shoppes on the Parkway, and many more.
Home is located near the top of Big Tree Mountain just outside of West Jefferson. Nearby attractions and activites are just a few minutes away and include the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mount Jefferson State Park, Ashe Park, and the New River. Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk are an easy 1/2 hour to 1 hour drive for skiing, fantastic shopping in boutiques and outlets, and tourist attractions such as Tweetsie Railroad and Grandfather Mountain.

Lovely indeed.
What could be more perfect with jeans and cowboy boots (or cutoffs and flip flops, or a tiered skirt … ) than the Billabong Girls' Belle View Tank Top? In addition to the glamorous all-over print, the Belle View sports lace crochet inserts at the shoulders and a raw-edge lace ruffle at the bottom hem for extra touches of sophistication.
