Final Thoughts
In all we found both motherboards provide performance equal to what we would expect from I865 and I875 motherboards currently on the market. The fact that the LGA775 CPU is the processor of choice only increases its future compatibility as clock speeds ramp up.
ABIT has chosen the cheaper option of going with the I865PE chipset which has proven to be somewhat of the ultimate Pentium 4 chipset, with its own support for PAT-like functions, compatibility with ICH5 series Southbridge - it's hard to go past it. Added to this ABIT has given some interesting extras like Ethernet and Firewire support it does make a great choice, however, without any Gigabit Ethernet support it does give it a bit of a kick in the butt, as Gigabit is set to be the next home network standard.
On the overclocking side of things, ABIT brings a huge amount of power to the party, with the increased trace lines to the CPU from the voltage regulators it has a great potential for Prescott and Northwood CPU's the only thing missing is a better voltage range on the Northbridge/AGP side to give it a bit of extra boost.
DFI has gone the extra mile when it comes to its 875P-T Lanparty board with all the additional features that are supported by the Lanparty series of motherboards, and for the case modders and LAN addicts this motherboard and its package is definitely one for you to consider.
The overclocking state of this motherboard is slightly better than that of the ABIT AS8 due to a higher AGP/Northbridge voltage range, though a slightly higher price premium is paid for the extra features and the I875P chipset and Gigabit Ethernet chip. In all the DFI 875P-T is more of the motherboard you will want to invest in if you want LGA775 and keep your AGP graphics card and DDR memory.

New Orleans: The Food
I'm home from New Orleans, and already missing the incredible food. Exploring new places through restaurants is a huge part of travel for me, and New Orleans is one of the most unique food cities in the US! I was in heaven the whole time! I ate some traditional dishes as well as modern interpretations of classics too.
Our first stop was an adorable little bar/music venue on Frenchmen St. called The Three Muses. It's no secret that Matt and I love small plates, so when I read about this spot, I knew we had to try it. Little did I know that everyone else knew about it as well and there was a 2 hour wait on a Sunday night! We decided to stick it out and I definitely think it was worth it in the end.
We shared the yucca fries with Cuban mojo dipping sauce (fries were kinda cold, but the sauce was amazing),
the Angry Orchard cider braised pork belly with apple chutney and potato pancakes,
the fried oysters with grits, wilted spinach, and a bloody mary sauce,
and the seared scallops topped with grapefruit and a vanilla citrus reduction served over swiss chard, butternut squash, and mussel risotto. All three dishes were absolutely divine (this may have been my favorite food of the trip!) and most items were between $9-$12. For a city that has surprisingly expensive restaurants, The Three Muses is a gem!
Of course we had to try the famous Commander's Palace!! We decided to go for lunch to save money and because there were so many other places we wanted to try in the French Quarter. I think this was a great call because the atmosphere was a bit more relaxed (but sill quite fancy!) and the food was as delicious as I imagine it is at dinner time.
We started with the shrimp & tasso henican: wild Louisiana shrimp, tasso ham, pickled okra, sweet onions (they forgot to remove these!), pepper jelly, and Crystal hot sauce. The flavor combination of the hot sauce and the sweetness of the pepper jelly was so incredible!
Both of our entrees came with soup, so I tried the gumbo and Matt got the turtle soup. The gumbo was pretty typical, but Matt's soup was something special. I wasn't too keen on the idea of eating turtle, but I got over it and was happy I tried it.
I ordered the seafood cakes as my entree – they were made with crab, shrimp, and fish and were a tad spicy. I loved them, although I didn't get the full entree experience because they were served with something cheesy and I got vegetables instead. I was so full though, that I didn't really mind.
Matt's pork, sausage, and white bean cassoulet was really tasty too.
I'm glad we fit in Commander's Palace because I'd say it lived up to its reputation and it was a great place to get a taste of classic Louisiana food.
Despite our fullness, Matt and I had a long walk home from lunch and couldn't resist when we saw a donut shop.
Just look at all those flavors and they change every day! We went with the butterscotch pecan and it was perfection.
While we were working out in the hotel gym on the last day, Matt started having visions and cravings for more donuts on the treadmill, so we gave in and stopped by on our way home:) This time we tried the salted caramel and Japanese yuzu fruit. These really helped to sweeten the almost 8 hour drive home!
The NOLA food tour continued at Jaques-Imos on our second night! My brother-in-law's little brother, Andrew, is my age and lives in New Orleans. He took us out in his neighborhood and we had a blast.
The restaurants were crazy because of the tourists in town for the Sugar Bowl, so we faced a two hour wait at this famous nook. We passed the time drinking local beers at the dive bar next door! Then we moved over to the restaurant and I got a watermelon mojito. So summery!
Jacques-Imos is super casual and serves all the classics in giant portions. We all wolfed down the cornbread and fried green tomatoes the minute we sat down:
Matt and I shared the duck and andouille sausage gumbo, the pan fried drum with pecan sauce, and red beans and rice and mashed sweet potatoes on the side. The gumbo was standard and pretty similar to the one I had at lunch (can't remember why I ordered this again), but the fish was wonderful and the sides were fantastic too.
And that brings me to New Year's Eve! We wanted to do something low-key and didn't feel like making a reservation for a big dinner, so we bar hopped and tried some of the city's famous cocktails.
Our first stop was at the Bourbon O bar on Bourbon St. I had a twist on the Sazerac (rye whisky, peychaud's bitters, simple syrup, absinthe rinsed glass, lemon), which included benedictine and vermouth in addition to the classic combination. It was hands down one of the best cocktails I've ever had – best sweet-to-alcohol ratio ever!
Our second stop was the French 75 bar at the famous Arnaud's restaurant. I ordered a rum drink with Mount Gay and a few different bitters and juices and it was pretty similar to a dark n stormy. I loved the old timey vibe of this bar, but it was smoky:(
Our third stop was at a restaurant that had a good-lookin' menu, so we snagged seats at the bar and had dinner at SoBou.
My cocktail here was ridiculous, but I can't remember what was in it because it was a special drink. It was a twist on King's Cake though, so imagine liquid cake batter with bourbon!!!
We started with the shrimp and tasso pinchos served with grilled pineapple and pickled ghost pepper jelly – I really loved how this was presented and I'm a huge pineapple fan.
Next, were the sweet potato beignets with chicory coffee ganache – loved these fried balls, but they weren't as savory as were described, so we saved them for dessert:)
We also had the rich girl po-boy, which was a savory Maine lobster lady finger layered with champagne lobster mousse, bowfin, paddle-fish and ghost pepper catfish caviars served with a shooter of drunken lobster bisque. This was so cool, but just a little too out-there for me. Caviar is just kinda scary.
The best thing we ordered at SoBou was the simplest – just pan-fried fish with apple cider and braised greens with creole beer nuts. A couple of different bartenders recommended this dish – it was perfectly seasoned and cooked.
It was raining when we left the restaurant, so we quickly found a spot to ring in 2014. We landed at the Carousel Bar at the Hotel Monteleone!!
The bar stools rotate around the bar – so cool! We ordered two Kir Royale's while we made one rotation and then headed to the dance floor about 10 minutes before midnight.
There was a great live band, but we were too tired to stick around for more than a few songs and called it a night.
On New Year's Day, we had a really hard time finding any place serving brunch, but managed to find some pancakes for a sweet start to the year – these had a bananas foster syrup on top!
Our final dinner was at a new restaurant called Kingfish. I was happy that it was on the casual side – at this point I was tired and ready to be in bed after another day of cold, rainy weather and miles of walking. There was a festive wrap-around bar in the front of the restaurant and a cozy back dining room.
We shared another favorite small plate of the trip – a sweet potato waffle pirogue filled with New Orleans style bbq shrimp,
and then shared two entrees: boneless duck tossed in ramen noodles, roasted peppers, mushrooms and preserved lemon sauce (above) and the shredded slow roasted pork pot pie with crab boil potatoes, english peas, and carrots (below). The duck ramen was a clear favorite, although both were great and different from anything else we'd already had in New Orleans. The portions were huge and reasonably priced and we ended up brining both home.
The not-so-grand but incredibly tasty finale was a muffuletta from Central Grocery. I had mine on the car ride home and was in heaven. Since the honeymoon, I've come to love olives and enjoyed the sandwich much more than I was expecting. I wish I had ordered the giant size!
There ya have it, my tastes of New Orleans! I promise we did more than just eat while we were there, but I'll have to share the rest in another post. See ya.
Read MoreCauliflower Pizza, The Porch, & Gatsby
Hope yall had a pleasant weekend.
Matt and I stayed in on Friday night and popped open a bottle of wine from our last visit to Charlottesville wine country.
I really love sipping wine while cooking. And Friday's dinner took quite a while to prepare…I finally got around to trying the famous cauliflower pizza crust that's been floating around the web. There are tons of recipes out there, but I used this one (with real eggs) so I could use my almond meal instead of cheese.
While it was pretty time-consuming, I thought the crust turned out great! I loved the nutty flavor. The texture wasn't that different from a flatbread or thin crust pizza, but wasn't doughy at all like a hand tossed or thicker crust.
Since I already had my food processor out, I decided to make a spicy cashew crema to go with the pizza, which I topped with ground beef, bacon, mushrooms, and peppers. Sadly, I didn't really like the crema (just too weird). I think the combination of a veggie crust, too much tomato sauce (which I don't really love on any pizza), and the lack of cheese just made this pizza tooo heathy! Don't worry, I made up for it on Saturday night:)
A friend gave Matt and I a giftcard to The Porch as a wedding gift, so we checked it out for dinner. But first, we stopped at a cute bar called Victor Tangos for a cocktail. I had an apricot mint julep!!
The menu at The Porch features a lot of classic, comfort food so I switched to beer with dinner because it seemed more appropriate. We started with the brisket sliders, which were simply amazing. The meat to bun ratio was ideal and the sauce was delicious.
For my entree, I ordered the salmon with tomato marmalade, horseradish spaetzle, mushrooms, and salsa verde. The fish was perfectly cooked and I loved the flavors – especially the wild mushrooms!
Matt got the pork tenderloin special served with apples and figs, which was also excellent – perfect for fall and we actually had some fall-ish temps this weekend!
I also finally watched The Great Gatsby. I wasn't expecting the modern touches, but I really liked the movie. We received this fancy bourbon as a house-warming gift, and made sure to make mini cocktails to sip on during all the party scenes:)
Cheers to a productive week.
Read MoreJujube
Happy Easter!!
I thought I was beating Matt's cold, but it has gotten the best of me today:( I wasn't able to go to church or brunch, but my parents were nice enough to order us a pizza and come over for the Duke game.
I really thought I was on the up-and-up Saturday, and attempted a date night. I figured beer is the best medicine (only in the moment…)
Matt and I stopped at Milltown in Chapel Hill and had a drink at the bar – this dubbel was fantastic!!!
I hate how having a stuffy nose affects your taste buds! I figured Asian food might stand out, so we checked out the bar at Jujube, a fusion restaurant with Chinese and Vietnamese influences in Chapel Hill. We decided just to share a cocktail and were blown away by the Hot Date – jujube [date] preserves, bourbon, cayenne, and lemon. Hot and sweet and oh so perfect.
These were melt-in-your-mouth pillows, and again, the sauce made this dish outstanding.
Crispy beef short rib and goat cheese wontons with hot pepper-basil jam arrived next, and while the insides of these were good, I tasted just a little too much of the fried shell and didn't ever taste any goat cheese Can't complain about the hot pepper sauce though!
Everything we tried was so unique and flavorful that we decided to just look at the dessert menu. Yeah right. We simply had to try the fried apple-goat cheese dumplings with vanilla-bourbon ice cream and black vinegar caramel. Basically my dream, fried into a pocket.
There were four dumplings under there, and we quickly discovered that the goat cheese was lurking in the corners. Absolutely to-die-for!
I'm so glad we tried something off the beaten path!
And now, my friends, I'm not gonna go to bed; because even though I feel lousy I'm on spring break and I'm gonna stay up past my bedtime watching random tv!!
Read MoreDinner Date, Breakfast Date
On Saturday, I had the pleasure of dining at the lovely Guglhupf, thanks to a Christmas gift from Matt's parents. We've celebrated at this cute cafe before, so it felt special to return:) We settled into our two-top on the second floor, amidst the funky hanging lanterns and chandeliers.
However, we couldn't quite settle because Duke was in the final minutes of a heated match with Maryland. We shared a bourbon with a splash of maple syrup and secretly watched Matt's phone for updates. Sadly, we lost the game. Matt was a die-hard Maryland fan in his past life, so he just didn't know how to feel about the final result!
Once we had a chance to take-in the menu, we were hungry! We started with the mussels steamed in riesling with tomato confit, new potatoes, garlic, and fresh herbs. We got a big ole bread basket and enjoyed soaking up every last bit of broth with it. The mussels were awesome.
I went away from my usual pork or fish entrees and tried the cabbage rolls stuffed with french lentils and sweet potatoes, topped with queso fresco and a local honey tomato sauce. I've gotten more into vegetarian dishes lately, so I thought I'd really like this, but I just didn't love the combination of tomato sauce and steamed cabbage. The flavors were really unique, but I think I was craving a heartier dish…
Given that we were celebrating Valentine's Day, which to me is a desert holiday, we ordered dessert! This was a salted caramel tart with a chocolate crust. It was surprisingly on the lighter side, but very good.
A perfect date night:)
I ended my weekend with another date on Sunday – a breakfast date with a high school friend who was in town.
My friend is getting married as well, so we talked all things wedding and honeymoon! I ordered an english muffin with fried eggs, tomato jam, and pimento cheese. It was kinda small, but soooo good! I need to get out and order breakfast sandwiches more often. And go on more friend dates.
I'm getting really into these relaxing weekends. The next two are going to be busy, so I'm glad to fit in some really lazy weekends this month. Back to work. See ya.

A holiday and a half day due to ice made last week fly by…and now we're almost in February. I can't say I'm too sad that January is almost over:)
We had plans to head to Duke for our weekly Fuqua Friday, but because of the icy conditions, it was cancelled. Matt swung by the grocery store and picked up a package of bacon and a hunk of pizza dough and a beautiful pie was born. We declared this the best pizza we've ever made! Dates, blue cheese, white cheddar, olive oil, and bacon. We pre-cooked the dough so it was perfect and the dates got crispy and caramelized.
We also popped open these two monsters:
The bourbon barrel porter was fabulous, but the barley wine was a bit too hoppy for my taste.
Since Netflix appeared to be down, we dug into my very small dvd collection and watched Notting Hill – such a nice movie.
Since I got the laundry out of the way on Friday, I didn't do much of anything on Saturday. The morning classes were cancelled at the gym, so I just took a mile walk and later browsed some stores, and called it a day. It was nice.
Matt and I had grand plans to meet friends in Chapel Hill for drinks, and try a new restaurant, but when it came time to get off the couch, we were too cozy! I'm such a wuss when the weather is cold. We made bourbon + bitters instead, and then finally ventured out to the local bar around the corner for dinner.

Duck confit poutine for Matt!
And because there had been some confusion earlier about a pork belly taco special that we really wanted and was no longer available, our waitress sent us home with a mysterious peanut butter dessert. We never asked what it was, but it involved heavenly crust, peanut butter fluff, a possible cream cheese icing, and chocolate sauce. Needless to say, I was quite happy with this end to our evening.
Today? Sunday brunch!
We met friends at the Nasher Cafe and I had a lovely Asian shrimp salad with cashews. Brunch is always such a great way to catch up with friends. I think because restaurants are generally quieter during the day and no drinking is involved, it makes for good conversation:)
Tonight was the free community class at the Sync studio and my legs are still aching!

Priceline.com's 'name your own price' has worked well for me in the past. You should be able to get one around $45 or so.
mang all i gota say is dont be a kooky **** just because you have a badge
i wont but thanks for the advice
good luck man, i applied for the fulltime position and got put on a waiting list. They are only taking about 40 people due to them bringing back about 65 returning seasonal officers. I was in the first class back in November and there were easily 250 people there. so def give it all, and score as high as you can on the written and physical test if its something you want.It blew my mind that there were certified police officers coming from Michigan, New York and Rhode Island just to name a few, to apply for the seven mile stretch of Ocean City , Md. Unreal!
thats pretty crazy.
I will have a full 4 year degree in criminal justice come may with work experience in working security at Harley Davidson, York Hospital of PA, and a local bar. I also did an internship at a local police department.

yeah hopefully man, every little bit of experience helps for sure.

Here's the telling detail in Politico's write-up of the earmarks ban vote in the Senate: "Coburn had hoped to get to 40 and was hurt by the defections of eight Republicans, many prominent in the Appropriations Committee."
You just can't pull these piggies away from the trough — until the next primary, that is.

Seems like a direct challenge to the Tea Partiers–give them so many targets that the project to reform the Republican Party can be continued only at the price of jeopardizing the Senate for another cycle.
A price worth paying, IMO. Especially if the Republicans take the White House, in which case leaving the Senate in democratic hands may be a positive good.

I concur. As long as the GOP controls the House, and thus the purse strings, it is time to clean house in the GOP. Once that's accomplished, then work on getting the fascists out of the Democratic Party.

From big Gov't: "Eight GOP senators voted to preserve earmark spending, including Thad Cochran (Miss.), Susan Collins (Maine), James Inhofe (Okla.), Dick Lugar (Ind.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Richard Shelby (Ala.). Retiring Sen. George Voinovich (Ohio) and defeated Sen. Bob Bennett (Utah) also voted against it. "

Gosh, it's like Lugar is daring (DARING, mind you!) people to start a "why we need to primary Dick Lugar's seat" list. He needs to take some VegaVitamite to remove the plaque from his entitled brain before he has to run as an independent.

Too much attention is being spent on the 8 GOP sentators (two of them lame ducks) who voted against the ban and not enough the 40+ dems who made that vote. A majority of GOP Senators voted for the ban, a majority of Dems didn't. That needs the be the message, not a handful of GOP senators made one bad vote. The more you harp on the 6 minor problems, the more to do the liberal media's job to perpetuate the myth that both parties are the same, which gave us the 2008 disaster.

Please, please, tell me you didn't actually expect the lefty Dems to vote for this en masse. Their entire political philosophy depends on Uncle Sugar dispensing the pittances to the Little People, if they were gonna abandon that, they'd become conservatives.
"Dog Bites Man" isn't headline-worthy… neither is "Democrats Vote Against Restricting Government Pork."

Contemporary China Centre
The Contemporary China Centre was set up in 1970 at The Australian National University as a research facility concerned with scholarly social science analysis of post-1949 China. In 2010, the Centre merged with the Department of Political & Social Change (PSC). PSC academics who specialize in China and thus are members of the Centre include Tamara Jacka, Andrew Kipnis, Sally Sargeson, Luigi Tomba and Jonathan Unger.
A corridor of the ANU Coombs Building accommodates a number of the Centre's members, including Andrew Kipnis and Jonathan Unger, several PhD students, the staff of The China Journal, and three long-term Visiting Fellows. The latter are Anita Chan, a sociologist who conducts research on Chinese labour relations; Robert Miller, a political scientist who specializes in eastern Europe; and Peter Van Ness, who specializes in international relations. Each year the Centre also attracts a steady stream of departmental visitors for shorter terms. The Centre houses the Transformation of Communist Systems Project.
The Centre has a thriving variety of publications. Above all, it is home to one of the leading international journals on contemporary China, The China Journal.
The Centre produced a commemorative series of lecture papers, the George Ernest Morrison Lectures in Ethnology, and the first several decades of the annual Lectures are available from the Centre as booklets.

'Man's oldest enemy. Its greatest lust.'
Satan's Mistress (also known as Demon Rage; Fury of the Succubus; Dark Eyes and, confusingly, Demon Seed) is a 1982 American horror film written, produced and directed by James Polakof. The plot concerns a sexually frustrated housewife, Lisa (Lana Wood), who having been distanced from her husband Carl (Don Galloway) begins having nightly trysts with an apparition that gradually takes on the form of a tall, dark stranger (Kabir Bedi) who turns out to be a ghost from the other side.
The film is notable for its inadvertent James Bond connections. Kabir Bedi later appeared in Octopussy, Britt Ekland (who has only a minor role but gets top-billing) starred in The Man with the Golden Gun and main star Lana Wood is known to many as Plenty O'Toole, a minor but highly memorable character from Diamonds Are Forever.
Although the film came and went unnoticed theatrically, Satan's Mistress became a favourite on home video, especially with fans of 'celebrity skin', who enjoyed Lana Wood's frequent nudity and scantily-clad runs down a beach. It's been generally acknowledged that these sexploitation moments are the only parts of the film worth watching, the rest of the story notably lacking in action or convincing supernatural horror. The film also has a cameo by veteran horror actor John Carradine as Father Stratten.
The film was released the same year as the similarly themed The Entity, differing in that the sex in Satan's Mistress is consensual.
"This little-known horror film is not great by any standards but it does hold your attention and there's plenty to laugh at from the demon dust to Ekland's wide eyed dialogue delivery. It's obvious the director, James Polakof was hoping for a sexy, adult thriller and indeed the setting is quite glamorous as well as Wood's fabu wardrobe and gigantic hair, but the rape theme is guaranteed to lose a good portion of the audience from the get go. However, the topic is dealt with in such a ham-fisted manner that it's pretty hard to get offended. I guess if a woman is lonely enough, she'll screw anything, but before ghosts, you think she'd try toys or hiring a male escort or something. I'm just sayin' is all." Planet Fury
"By any title, it sucks. They really should have just called it "Excuse To Get Plenty O'Toole Naked" since that's what the true agenda seems to be from the very first scene of Lana Wood running down the beach in slow-motion with her breast popping out of her nightgown." The Bloody Pit of Horror
"Miss Ekland receives top billing but only appears in only about four short scenes, and Carradine has just one. It is really Miss Wood who carries the film on her shoulders, and other places! I hope Mr. Bedi (with emphasis on BED) wasn't paid by the word, since he never said anything. However, if Miss Wood was paid by the moan, she could probably retire by now. Come to think of it, I haven't seen her around lately… " Temple of Schlock
"Tedious, predictable and taking forever to build to its non-arousing climax. John Carradine is wasted in a thankless cameo as a priest." John Stanley in Creature Features, Berkeley Publishing Group, 2000
