Though electrical-based, he doesn't have exclusive lightning- or electric-blast types of powers. Due to an electronic mishap, he was given the ability to absorb temporary powers from any video game he played. The exact ratio of game time to usage is unknown.Weaknesses: he has a very severe weakness in that each time he chooses to use an absorbed power, he loses a memory. Since the character is so new, fans debate whether or not the memory loss is permanent however, there are hopes that either scientific intervention or the studying of personal diaries, will keep Feedback's lifestory as contrugent as possible.The first comic has yet to be released but in an interview with the creator himself, Feedback said that his powers will change from his original vision. More can be divulged after Issue #1 of WWTBASH comic (formerly titled Feedback #1).Feedback's team post the Excelsior assignment, is called Tech Support which is in fact, the name of his fan club and all their characters. Feedback has been allied with heroes (also from the reality show) such as Monkey Woman, Creature, and the Iron Enforcer.

CLG HotshotAli
why do stupid noobs play ranked even though they know they suck? anyways. how does this match making bs work? why does it put me with a bunch of noobs who are brain damaged monkeys? i dropped from 1493 to 1300 in 3-4 hours...i thought i would get out of this bs elo hell but noobs everywhere. do stupid players just have a big meeting and say "today, lets just troll ranked games and make people wanna uninstall this game"? correct me if im wrong, but you cant just watch tournaments, buy what they buy, talk a bunch of bs and win ranked games. it doesnt work like that. but ive played with at least a 100 players with that mind set. wannabes should just play normal games, and not make me wanna kick them in the mouth repeatedly.
Junior Member
I am also tired of noobs in rank that feed then akf or blame teams for losing game. Im also tired of freking ******* saying u cna get out of elo hell if ur good enought this is a team game not a solo player game. You need teamwork to get out of elo hell *******
Senior Member
You are where you belong. However, you will have lucky streaks, and unlucky streaks from time to time. ITT: It's all about how you handle it. As for "BAWWW ELO HELL BAWWW": Assuming you are good, 4 people on your team have chance of being feeders/afk and 5 people have the chance on other team; you will move up if you deserve it.
Baxter the Teddy
Because your team is always 4 noobs and the enemy team is secretly TSM and CLG on their smurfs every game and the world is out to get you.

Papa D 1946-2012's Note:
From smoking meat.com news letter.
My Private Note
Units: US | Metric
For the brine
- 4 cups of cold drinking water
- 1/4 cup kosher salt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
For the chicken
- 4 -6 chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
- toothpick
- regular cut bacon (3 slices per breast)
- ribs or chicken, rub
- barbecue sauce
- 1Brine:.
- 2Pour the water into a pitcher then add the salt.
- 3Stir until the salt is dissolved and the water returns to clear. Add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved.
- 4Pour the brine over the chicken breasts until covered, cover with lid or plastic wrap and place the bowl in the fridge to keep cold.
- 5Soak the 6 chicken breasts in a deep glass container for 2 hours flipping them over at the halfway mark to make sure they were evenly submerged.
- 6Preparing the Chicken Breasts:.
- 7After rinsing the breasts to make sure there was no extra salt on the outside of the meat, Lay the breast down in the brining bowl and cover them with rub.
- 8Lay 3 strips of bacon butted up against each other on a cutting board or flat surface. Lay one of the breasts across the bacon leaving enough bacon on the left side to wrap it over just a little.
- 9Roll the breast over a couple of times to completely wrap it in the bacon and use toothpicks to hold the bacon in place.
- 10Smoking the Chicken Breasts:.
- 11Setup the smoker for about 230 degrees for best results, and add dry and soaked wood chips.
- 12Once the smoker is ready, go get the chicken breasts and place them directly on the grate leaving about 1 inch of space between them to allow the smoke to completely surround them.
- 13Estimate about 3 hours of cook time but that will depend on the thickness of the chicken breasts that you purchased.

Here's a couple of things to do....
1. Make sure your network drivers and Router firmware are updated. Check your Router settings 2. Go into SAFE mode (hold F8 at boot)and see if the issue still occurs. If not, it is probably an application that is being loaded at start in normal mode. |

Thought I'd throw in the solution that worked for me. What follows is a copy of from the Microsoft forum: default gateway not available in windows 7
Hello Guys. I found the solve on a Nvidia forum. Its works perfect for me.
This solution was found in another forum. And it solved the problem for me. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate x64. And the constant network disconnects was getting bad, especially during steady downloading. What you need is the nVidia Vista v15.25 (32bit or 64bit) motherboard driver. 64bit URL: NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.25 WHQL 32bit URL: NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.25 WHQL I ran into a problem immediately when the driver installer did not display the Ethernet menu item. I had to do the following to get this fix to work. Note that it applies to the Win7 64bit version: 1) Uninstall any Nvidia Ethernet drivers. -- Reboot. --the Windows 7 default ethernet drivers get installed in their place --verify and note down the filename of the Network Adapter driver filename that Windows 7 uses. 2) Do the following: --go to the location where the Nvidia installer unzipped the v15.25 files on your hardrive. Under the Ethernet folder, find the v15.25 Ethernet driver file "nvmfdx64.sys" (file version 184.108.40.20689) and rename it to the Windows 7 x64 default Ethernet driver filename "nvm62x64.sys". --copy nvm62x64.sys to c:\windows\system32\drivers (archive the old default file first). Reboot. |

"Fantastic, though I did make some changes to suit my family's tastes and what I had on hand. I cut down sugar by 1/2c.(as other reviewers did), sub'd 1/2 brown sugar & 1/2 white sugar, 1/2 unbleached flour & 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour & sub'd all melted butter for the oil (because I only had olive oil).

Obama pays tribute to 107-year-old WWII vet
Tuesday, November 12, 2013
ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) — President Barack Obama on Monday paid tribute to those who have served in the nation's military, including one of the nation's oldest veterans, 107-year-old Richard Overton.
"This is the life of one American veteran, living proud and strong in the land he helped keep free," Obama said during a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.
Overton rose slowly and stood to loud applause when Obama mentioned his name, then stood a second time at the president's request and drew more applause.
He was among hundreds attending the outdoor ceremony on a crisp, sunny Veteran's Day. Earlier Monday, Overton and other veterans attended a breakfast at the White House.
Obama used his remarks to remind the nation that thousands of service members are still at war in Afghanistan. The war is expected to formally conclude at the end of next year, though the U.S. may keep a small footprint in the country.
Soon, "the longest war in America's history will end," Obama declared.
As the 12-year-old war draws down, Obama said the nation has a responsibility to ensure that the returning troops are the "best cared-for and best respected veterans in the world." The country's obligations to those who served "endure long after the battle ends," he said.
As president, Obama said he wanted to see the "best cared-for and best respected veterans in the world."
Obama also noted that it has now been 60 years since the end of the fighting in Korea.
"We join as one people to honor a debt we cannot fully repay," he said.

After diving into all the great Christmas-themed slashers and horror movies like Silent Night, Deadly Night, Santa's Slay, Christmas Evil, Saint Nick, and many others, it's sometimes hard to believe there's another great holiday to revel in just around the corner. There might not be as many films directly centered on ushering in the New Year, but there's plenty to keep you entertained for a few days and nights.
I realize that not everyone smiles in glee like I do as teenagers get axed and knifed. Some folks just want some alternate choices in the face of all the countdowns and variety shows they're bombarded with every year. The list I've put together includes not only slasher and horror flicks, but disaster, sci-fi, and action-oriented ones as well.

"What if?" is the burning question our favorite sci-fi movies ask: What if Earth was invaded by aliens or giant spiders? What makes us human once we start bending the laws of genetics and robotics? And if we worked out really really hard, would we ever have Linda Hamilton's arms in "Terminator 2"?
Here are some of the best of the sci-fi genre now streaming on Netflix, including Chris Evans in "Snowpiercer," Bruce Willis in "The Fifth Element" and plenty of Godzilla and the crew of the USS Enterprise.
1. "Antiviral" (2012) Nr
David Cronenberg's son, Brandon, makes his film debut with this gore-filled horror flick about a company who deals in viruses collected from celebrities since people want to be infected with the same diseases as the ultra-famous.
2. "Barbarella" (1968) PG
The cult film, starring Jane Fonda as the sexy space babe of the title, may be overlong, but it's an eye-popping must-see '60s flashback. »

Martin Freeman is having a very good year. He won acclaim (and an Emmy nomination) for TV's Fargo and more praise (plus an actual Emmy) for Sherlock and recently worked on the BBC's drama The Eichmann Show. He's looking to the big screen once again, entering talks to join Tina Fey in Taliban Shuffle.The story has been adapted from Kim Barker's wartime memoir, subtitled 'Strange Days In Afghanistan And Pakistan'. It charts her time as a journalist in Kabul in 2002, where with no foreign languages among her skillset and precious little idea how to get between Pakistan and Afghanistan, she was thrown in at the deep end. Slowly but surely, she grew to love the region, even as she became increasingly worried about its future.Fey is playing Barker, and Margot Robbie is also aboard as a hard-charging, ambitious on-air news anchor.

After mastering his English language debut Stoker with the assuredness and deft hand of a true auteur, Park Chan-Wook will return to his native tongue for his upcoming feature, Fingersmith. That commitment aside, doesn't mean the Oldboy director isn't fielding offers stateside. According to Variety's breaking report today, the South Korean helmer will venture back to the dark side of human nature at some point, as he's signed on to tackle futuristic sci-fi thriller, Second Born.
Based on an original spec script by newcomer David Jagernauth, the brief synopsis draws comparisons to a range of genre classics. Based on what we know thus far, Second Born will be "set in a futuristic world where consciousness is stored on computer chips and bodies are bought and sold on the black-market.

Jimmy Carters energy policy, stadium rock, the death of Mao, fall of the Shah, The Sweeney and Roy of the Rovers feature as hot topics among Ian Plenderleiths recommended reads
The 1970s have been much reviled and much revived, as Andy Beckett author of the excellent When the Lights Went Out (Faber) put it so well. Francis Wheens Strange Days Indeed (Fourth Estate) and Alwyn Turners Crisis? What Crisis? (Aurum Press) are also worth picking up. All approach their political and social studies of the 70s with wit and balance. Yet there were subcultural and political phenomena of the 70s meriting their own books. The music, art, fashion and design worlds were all mutating, in their own important ways, as the first arenas of tolerance. Gays, blacks and women were better accepted, setting the trend for subsequent wider progress. In sport and television, not so much.
Thats one reason why »

The Wolf Of Wall Street's Margot Robbie is in the running for a role in Paramount's upcoming adaptation, The Taliban Shuffle. Based on journalist Kim Barker's memoir, The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the film will be a major departure for the actress should she sign on to co-star.
Heading up the project will be Tina Fey, who's starring and producing along with her 30 Rock alum, Lorne Michaels. The pic is slated to be a black political comedy, focusing on war correspondent Barker's experiences during her time spent in the Middle East.
After her turn in Wolf, it looks as if Robbie's ready to take on a comedic gig, as the part she's eyeing in The Taliban Shuffle sounds rather caricature-ish. According to THR, she'll play "a blond, gorgeous and hard-core on-air news anchor who befriends Baker (Fey) in Afghanistan. »

Margot Robbie looks ready to reteam with her "Focus" directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa: The "The Wolf of Wall Street" actress is in talks to join Tina Fey in their next pic, "The Taliban Shuffle."
Paramount is distributing with Fey and Lorne Michaels producing.
The film is based on Kim Barker's memoir, "The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan," which recounts her years as a journalist in Afghanistan and Pakistan after arriving in the region in 2002.
Robert Carlock of "30 Rock" wrote the adaptation.
Robbie is about to wrap production on Warner Bros. "Tarzan" and was weighing several offers, including this one. She also has an offer for "Suicide Squad" at Warner Bros., but scheduling must be worked out with "Taliban Shuffle" before she can commit.
Robbie, who is repped by CAA and Management 360, will star opposite Will Smith in "Focus," which bows Feb. »

Margot Robbie is fielding plenty of offers at the moment. With a potential role in the Warner Bros. Suicide Squad film quickly coming together with David Ayer in charge, the Wolf Of Wall Street actress is also now considering a part in The Taliban Shuffle, which already has Tina Fey attached.The story has been adapted from Kim Barker's wartime memoir, subtitled 'Strange Days In Afghanistan And Pakistan'. It charts her time as a journalist in Kabul in 2002, where with no foreign languages among her skillset and precious little idea how to get between Pakistan and Afghanistan, she was thrown in at the deep end. Slowly but surely, she grew to love the region, even as she became increasingly worried about its future.Fey is playing Barker, and if she makes a deal, Robbie will be set as a blonde, competitive on-air news anchor that becomes friends with her, »

Strange days have found us. Late summer weekends can yield weird results, but rarely like this. Six of the Top Ten positions changed from Friday, which is rare, as two of three new films declined steeply. Meanwhile several of holdovers enjoyed solid jumps. Last week's top two films switched positions, with "Guardians of the Galaxy" (Buena Vista) returning yet again as the top grosser after having been bested by "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (Paramount) for the last two weeks. Those two films are the shining lights of August, but the less-heralded "Let's Be Cops" (Twentieth Century Fox) had a terrific hold--only down 38%-- to take fourth place. And that wasn't the best hold! Lower-budget sleeper success "The Hundred-Foot Journey" (Dreamworks/Buena Vista) fell only 22% in its third weekend. "Journey" has already outgrossed (with higher marketing expense) the summer's other foody hit, "Chef," and looks to build »

When it comes to surveillance video, it's hard to get more disorienting than transitioning from a LiveStream in Ferguson, Missouri to CBS' voyeuristic "Big Brother" and it saddens me that that's what I find myself doing tonight. Between this unfortunate media juxtaposition and some exhausting travel, I can't say that I'm all that involved with what's going down on Sunday's (August 17) "Big Brother," but the job is the job... So let's watch what happens! 8:03 p.m. Oh right. Derrick and Frankie won Head of Household when we left things on Thursday. Interesting... "Big Brother" Voice-Over Man says that tonight will be the last Battle of the Block of the summer. 8:04 p.m. There are only eight people left in the House and Frankie notes that six of them are in his alliance, which means alliance-mates are going up on the Block.

One of the few big-screen adaptations of William Gibson's sci-fi, Johnny Mnemonic was largely ignored at the box-office. Kyle looks back...
By the time Johnny Mnemonic was released in 1995, screenwriter William Gibson had been writing innovative science fiction for almost 20 years. Since his first short story – the brilliant Fragments Of A Hologram Rose – was published back in 1977, Gibson had been making serious waves in the sci-fi community. He's perhaps most well-known for his game-changing 1984 novel, Neuromancer, a dark neo-noir filled with console-cowboys, sentient AIs and virtual reality – all common elements now, but Gibson's work still stands as a milestone in sci-fi literature. Gibson created the term 'cyberspace' and is seen as one of the forefathers of cyberpunk.
It's weird, then, that his novels and stories never translated to the silver screen before the mid-90s. Gibson himself had taken a pass at Alien 3 (though most of his ideas were quickly disposed of, »

Australian ingénue Margot Robbie won loads of attention last year as the trophy wife of the titular Wolf of Wall Street. She's already lined up a full slate of follow-ups, but rumor has it her next endeavor could be a political comedy with the one and only Tina Fey. The crew over at Schmoes Know claims to have an insider on the developing Tina Fey vehicle, Taliban Shuffle. The comedy based on the Kim Barker's wartime memoir, The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan seems to have rolled into casting the funny lady's co-stars. Reportedly Margot Robbie is a frontrunner for a role alongside the 30 Rock creator/star. No details on what role Robbie might play have been given at this time. Tina Fey will produce and headline Taliban Shuffle. In the film, she's set to portray the book's author Kim Barker, who was sent on »

"Lucy" will be discussed soon on the podcast but at least one member of Scarjo-loving Tfe refuses to see it. Here's Matthew Eng to tell you why. - Editor
I don't care if Lucy is every bit the gloriously silly and shamelessly outré action fireworks show that gung-ho summer audiences have made into a "surprise hit." I care even less that Luc Besson has managed to curb his own gonzo cheese-fest tendencies to a running time of less than 90 minutes, compared to the ceaselessly spinning tops and chiseled self-mythologizing of every Christopher Nolan movie post-Insomnia. And, though it's been tempting, I finally don't care that Besson and Co. have seemingly put the newly-rejuvenated Scarlett Johansson (so good in Under the Skin; so great in Don Jon) on a pedestal of full-out Film Goddess proportions, in a genre where movies in which women are front and center and not merely »

You could do something similar to what editor Robert Grigsby Wilson has done here taking a look at Lana and Andy Wachowski's The Matrix and pointing out all the moments in the film influenced by, or paying homage to, other films, but it is nonetheless fascinating to take such a trip through film and in this case several martial arts features, anime and even a speech from Philip K.

Crazy, Stupid, Love directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa are currently at work on the con-man movie Focus starring Will Smith, but they're already lining up a future project with an adaptation of the memoir Taliban Shuffle. Per THR, Kim Barker's wartime memoir covers her time "as a fish out of water in Kabul, filing stories about militants, being a woman in wartime Iraq and Pakistan, dealing with boredom interspersed with dashes of violence and the promiscuous war-correspondent culture." Reading this brief description, my mind flashes to a potentially cool mashup of Three Kings and Jarhead, but Taliban Shuffle seems like a fun story with plenty of room for interesting takes. Additionally, Tina Fey has signed on to star, and Robert Carlock, who worked with Fey as a writer on 30 Rock, handled the script. While this hints at a more comedic bent, it's important to remember that Fey hasn't »

The Costner comeback continues with news that the Academy Award winner is in negotiations to take the lead role in the sci-fi thriller Criminal – currently being developed by Millennium Films. The film would see the actor as an unpredictable and dangerous character, who finds himself in the unusual predicament of being needed for action on the government side of the law. The knowledge and skills of a deceased CIA operative are implanted into his brain, and the shadowy organization asks him to finish the mission.
Criminal has Ariel Vromen attached to helm the project. Having made his first feature film – Simple Lies – in 2005, his most high profile directorial (and co-writing) effort to date has been 2012's The Iceman – the true story of a contract killer – starring Michael Shannon, Chris Evans, James Franco, Winona Ryder, Ray Liotta and David Schwimmer.

Who would you want to direct an action-packed journey around the human body? While I'm tempted to say David Cronenberg, the answer "James Cameron" is probably the more solid proposition and just as well, as his remake of 1966′s Fantastic Voyage has reportedly shifted a little further along the digestive tract with the news that David S. Goyer is on treatment duty.
The story concerns a team of scientists who are miniaturized onto a tiny submarine and despatched into the body of a defected Russian scientist to ensure his survival and obtain his secrets. Richard Fleischer's original film featured the eclectic casting of Raquel Welch (One Million Years BC) and Donald Pleasence (Halloween) and had the distinction of being novelized by sci-fi master Isaac Asimov (I, Robot). An interesting parallel to Cameron, who hired respected author Orson Scott Card (Ender'S Game) to write up The Abyss back »

Animator and producer Bruce Timm hasn't worked on a Batman animation since 2004, but this year is the Caped Crusader's 75th anniversary, and DC is making sure we know it by offering all kinds of exclusives and events—among them a black and white, classic-style short by Timm himself: Strange Days.
Check out the length of Batman's ears. Now that's 1930s.
To see Timm talk about the development of the short, you can watch this DC "All Access" clip:
Timm co-created the Emmy-winning Batman: The Animated Series, which is still widely believed to be the hero's best onscreen representation—and I have to agree. It's the closest I've seen to a real Batman comic-in-motion, movies included (sorry, Christopher Nolan), although that might change if somebody just asked Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo to direct a Batman movie.

IFA 2013: Panasonic Launches 20" ToughPad 4K UT-MB5 Tablet For Business Users
Subject: General Tech | September 9, 2013 - 01:49 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: tablet, Panasonic, ifa 2013, 4k
At the IFA 2013 trade show in Berlin, Germany, Panasonic is showing off a prototype 20" tablet with 4K high resolution display called the ToughPad 4K UT-MB5. The tablet is aimed at professional users in sales and marketing as well as artists, architects, and engineers. The UT-MB5 will come in two models: standard and performance. The performance SKU features a faster Intel Core i5 vPro processor and NVIDIA discrete graphics versus the standard version.
The Panasonic ToughPad 4K UT-MB5 is a 20" tablet with a carbon fiber case that measures 12.5mm thick and weighs 2.35 kg (5.18 lbs) for the standard version. The performance version weighs slightly more at 2.7 kg (5.95 lbs). The front of the tablet is dominated by a 20" 4K IPS display with a resolution of 3840 x 2560 (230 PPI), aspect ratio of 15:10, and 176-degree viewing angles. Above the display is a 720p webcam. The UT-MB5 has USB 3.0, SD card, optical smart card, and headphone ports. Panasonic further offers a desktop cradle that allows users to use the tablet as a desktop system by connecting a wireless keyboard and mouse. The desktop dock also expands the IO options to include HDMI output and an Ethernet port. The tablet is ruggedized and rated to be able to withstand drops up to 76cm while turned on.
Internal hardware on the 20" ToughPad includes an unspecified Intel Core i5 vPro processor, discrete NVIDIA Geforce graphics, up to 8GB of RAM, a 128GB (standard) or 256GB (performance) SSD, and Windows 8.1 Pro. There are also wireless radios for 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Panasonic also provides an optional digitizer called the Electronic Touch Pen. The custom pen connects to the tablet using Bluetooth and uses an infrared camera that can reportedly identify every pixel on the high resolution display. The pen has 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity and can also report angle of tilt.
Panasonic rates the UT-MB5 tablet at around 2 hours of battery life off of a full charge. The company sees the device as a portable touchscreen rather than a mobile tablet, and at 20" and 5+ pounds it is more of a desktop replacement than a mobile device.
The Standard SKU will be available in November for GBP 3,335 (~$5,217) in Germany and Europe. There is no word on US availability yet, however. Panasonic has stated that the higher-end Performance UT-MB5's pricing and availability will be announced at a later date. In the meantime, users can check out the standard version at the IFA show in Berlin in Hall 5.2/101.
It looks like a neat device that should be a hit for professional artists, architects, engineers, and business users alike. It comes with a premium price tag but the display and accurate digitizer is likely worth it!
IFA 2013: Lenovo Launches S5000 Thin and Light Seven-Inch Tablet
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | September 5, 2013 - 03:39 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: tablet, s5000, Lenovo, ideatab, android 4.2
Today, Lenovo announced a new high end seven inch tablet called the IdeaTab S5000. The new tablet measures 7.9mm thick and weighs 246 grams (0.54").
The chassis has a laser engraved "fabric feel" back cover finish and chrome accents on the side. A large 5" 1280 x 800 (350 nit) touchscreen display dominates the front of the device. A 1.8MP webcam sits above the display and a Lenovo logo is located below the display. The tablet also has a rear 5.0 MP camera.
The IdeaTab S5000 is powered by a MediaTek 8389 SoC with a quad core CPU clocked at 1.2GHz and PowerVR™ Series5XT GPU, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD card), and a 3,450 mAh battery. The tablet is rated at 8 hours of continuous Wi-Fi web browsing or 6 hours of HD video playback. It has a OTG (On The Go) USB port allowing it to act as a host and connect to devices such as external storage. The S5000 can further be configured with HSPA+ 3G cellular connectivity.
The S5000 runs Android 4.2 and comes with Lenovo suite of customized smart apps for document and photo editing (among other things). The IdeaTab S5000 will be available in Q4 2013 for an as-yet-unannounced price.
Google Rolls Out JSS15Q OTA Update To Fix GPS and Multi-Touch Issues
Subject: General Tech | August 25, 2013 - 10:26 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: tablet, ota update, nexus 7, gps, google, Android
Google's new Nexus 7 was released in July with updated hardware and Android 4.3. One of the changes to the platform was the switch from the original Nexus 7's Tegra 3 processor for a quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro SoC. Qualcomm also built the GPS (and GLONASS) unit. Unfortunately, some users ran into issues with the GPS and touchscreen on the updated Nexus 7 due to software bugs.
In response, Google is rolling out an Over The Air (OTA) update to all new Nexus 7 devices. Among other minor bug fixes, the JSS15Q update resolves the GPS and multi-touch issues. Previously, the GPS would randomly drop the connection and a smaller number of users reported that touching the screen would initiate screen presses at multiple (unintended) areas of the screen on a shared axis from the actual touch point.
AnandTech reports that the JSS15Q update, which is being slowly rolled out to all of the 2013 edition Nexus 7 devices, has resolved the GPS issue. The XDA Developers site further reports that the update addresses the mult-itouch and user data eMMC corruption bugs.
Nexus 7 users can either wait for the JSS15Q update or flash the device with an updated Google-provided ROM.
Dell Refreshes XPS 12 Convertible Ultrabook With Better Hardware

Dell has announced that within the next few weeks, it will be unleashing a refreshed version of the XPS 12 convertible ultrabook (tablet/notebook). Although the base price will be increased by $100, the refreshed tablet features Intel's latest Fourth Generation Core "Haswell" processor, a NFC radio, and a larger battery.
Specifically, Dell will be releasing at least three new XPS 12 SKUs. The lowest-end refreshed model includes an Intel Core i5-4200U processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 128GB SSD. This ultrabook/tablet SKU has an MSRP of $1,199 and is an update to the original base model with an MSRP of $1,099.
Dell's XPS 12 Convertible Ultrabook (Tablet)
Beyond the starter version, users can upgrade the CPU and memory to an Intel Core i5-4500U and 8GB of DDR3 for $200 more ($1,399 MSRP).
Finally, users can take the $1,399 model and upgrade the storage to a 512GB solid state drive (SSD). This version of the XPS 12 has a MSRP of $1,999.
Dell claims that the updated ultrabook has up to 1.6-times the performance and 2.5 hours more battery life (8 hours, 43 minutes) thanks to the move to Haswell CPUs and a larger 50Wh battery respectively. Of course, the original XPS 12 used Ivy Bridge CPUs and 47Wh batteries. The new models have started shipping and will be available for purchase around the end of July.
Introduction and Design
As headlines mount championing the supposed shift toward tablets for the average consumer, PC manufacturers continue to devise clever hybrid solutions to try and lure those who are on the fence toward more traditional machines. Along with last year's IdeaPad Yoga 13 and ThinkPad Twist, Lenovo shortly thereafter launched the smallest of the bunch, an 11.6" convertible tablet PC with a 5-point touch 720p IPS display.
Unlike its newer, more powerful counterpart, the Yoga 11S, it runs Windows RT and features an NVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad-Core system on a chip (SoC). There are pros and cons to this configuration in contrast to the 11S. For starters, the lower-voltage, fanless design of the 11 guarantees superior battery life (something which we'll cover in detail in just a bit). It's also consequently (slightly) smaller and lighter than the 11S, which gains a hair on height and weighs around a quarter pound more. But, as you're probably aware, Windows RT also doesn't qualify as a fully-functional version of Windows—and, in fact, the Yoga 11's versatility is constrained by the relatively meager selection of apps available on the Windows Store. The other obvious difference is architecture and chipset, where the Yoga 11's phone- and tablet-grade ARM-based NVIDIA Tegra 3 is replaced on the 11S by Intel Core Ivy Bridge ULV processors.
But let's forget about that for a moment. What it all boils down to is that these two machines, while similar in terms of design, are different enough (both in terms of specs and price) to warrant a choice between them based on your intended use. The IdeaPad Yoga 11 configuration we reviewed can currently be found for around $570 at retailers such as Amazon and Newegg. In terms of its innards:
If it looks an awful lot like the specs of your latest smartphone, that's probably because it is. The Yoga 11 banks on the fact that such ARM-based SoCs have become powerful enough to run a modern personal computer comfortably—and by combining the strengths of an efficient, low-power chipset with the body of a notebook, it reaps benefits from both categories. Of course, there are trade-offs involved, starting with the 2 GB memory ceiling of the chipset and extending to the aforementioned limitations of Windows RT. So the ultimate question is, once those trade-offs are considered, is the Yoga 11 still worth the investment?

Computex 2013: Sony Unveils New Haswell-Powered VAIO Duo 13 Tablet and VAIO Pro 11" and 13" Ultrabooks
Subject: Systems, Mobile | June 5, 2013 - 09:53 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: vaio pro, vaio duo 13, vaio, tablet, sony, computex 2013, computex
Tablets and ultrabooks are proving popular devices at Computex, and Sony recently joined the release party with three new Haswell-powered VAIO notebooks. The VAIO Pro 11 and VAIO Pro 13 are thin and light laptops while the VAIO Duo 13 is the company's first Haswell-powered convertible tablet (slider style).
All three new mobile devices share Full HD 1920 x 1080 Bravia Triluminos touchscreen displays, ClearAudio+ sound, Haswell processors, and respectable battery life.
The VAIO Duo 13 is a 13" notebook that can be converted into a slate tablet by sliding the screen forward and having it lay on top of the keyboard. The keyboard is back-lit and sits above a tiny trackpad that is much wider than it is tall. Other features include a stylus, 8MP camera with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software called CamScanner, and a claimed 15 hour battery life according to Sony and as tested by MobileMark 2007.
Internal specifications match those of the VAIO Pro series, with a dual core 1.6GHz Intel Core i5-4200U processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD, and a beefy 6,320 mAh battery.
Aside from the small trackpad, this looks like a solid device that matches Intel's "It's a laptop when you need it; it's a tablet when you want it" mantra. At the very least, it looks like a worthy (and improved) successor to the company's existing VAIO Duo 11 convertible tablet.
The VAIO Duo 13 will be available for purchase in Carbon Black or Carbon White later this month for $1,399.
Sony has also announced two new thin-and-light ultraportable VAIO Pro notebooks. As the product names suggest, they are 11" and 13" ultrabooks.
The VAIO Pro 11 weighs in at an ultra-light 1.92 pounds (0.87kg) and offers up a 1920 x 1080 display, backlight keyboard, trackpad (again, rather tiny), and decent internals.
Specifically, the base model Pro 11 notebook is powered by an Intel 4th Generation Core i5-4200U (dual core at 1.6GHz) processor, 4GB RAM, and a 128GB SSD. For a bit more, you can upgrade to a Core i7-4500U and a 256GB SSD. The base model has an MSRP of $1,150.00 USD.
Sony's VAIO Pro 13 steps up to a larger 13" display (albeit still 1080p). The larger form factor is still only 2.33 pounds (1.06kg), however which is nice to see. The base model contains a Core i5-4200U processor, 4GB RAM, and a 128GB PCIe SSD. Users can upgrade to 8GB of RAM and a 512GB PCIe SSD, however. The MSRP for the base model is $1,250.00 USD.
For only $100 over the base VAIO Pro 11, you can get a larger screen and faster storage drive which is pretty good. Judging by the reviews, such as this one by The Verge, the Pro 13 is the one to get as the Pro 11 is almost too small with a hard-to-read screen and cramped keyboard. On the other hand, if you need portability however, it is hard to beat the Haswell-powered Pro 11.
Both the VAIO Pro 11 and VAIO Pro 13 will be available later this month for $1,150 and $1,250 respectively.
What do you think about Sony's new offerings? Any Duo 11 users out there wishing for a larger form factor?
Computex 2013: Acer Liquid S1 Is a Quad Core 5.7" Phablet With 2,400mAh Battery

During Computex Acer announced its new Liquid S1 smartphone. In fact, the term smartphone may not be enough to do the nearly tablet-sized 5.7" Liquid S1 justice, and Acer has even dubbed it a "phablet".
On the outside, the Acer Liquid S1 has a massive 5.7" touchscreen with 720p resoultion surrounded by an aluminum side grip and a front 24mm and 8MP rear camera. The smartphone/tablet/phablet (heh) weighs in at 195g.
The new mobile device is powered by a quad core MediaTek SoC clocked at 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM, 8GB storage, and a 2,400mAh battery that Acer claims will last "all day." The Liquid S1 runs Android 4.2.2, and offers a stock experience apart from Acer's multitasking Float UI and Cloud Docs document software. Other features include DTS StudioSound audio, dual SIM card slots, and a microSD card support (maximum of 32GB).
Wireless connectivity options include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and 3G radios as well as wireless display and wireless printing technology.
The Liquid S1 smartphone will be available in either matte black or white across Asia and Europe for 329 Euros. It is set for release sometime in the third quarter of this year (Q3'13). US users wanting a large smartphone (or small tablet) will need to either import the Acer model or look elsewhere as the company has not yet expanded its mobile offerings to this side of the pond, excluding laptops of course.
Samsung's take on the Surface Pro, the ATIV Smart PC 500T

Tagged: Samsung, ATIV Smart PC 500T, Surface Pro, tablet
Samsung has produced a Surface Pro tablet they call the ATIV Smart PC 500T, which comes paired with a keyboard/docking station. Powered by an 1.5GHz Atom Z2760 and 2GB of DDR2-800 with a 64GB e.MMC iNAND SSD for storage the device the performance will beat a WinRT tablet but it is not going to compete with a laptop. Strangely one of the most advertised features, the S Pen, was not present in the Canadian package so it is not included in this review. Silent PC Review noticed that Samsung are working on the 500T's page, though they do not know if it was to correct the erroneous text stating the S Pen comes with the basic model or simpy to give time to have S Pens shipped and attached. The 11.6" 1366 x 768 screen was washed out in comparison to the Microsoft Surface Pro and it did not seem as sturdy as the Microsoft product either. Check out the full review to get a better idea how this tablet performs.
"Windows 8 is making possible a new class of mobile convertibles that flip between tablet and notebook. The Samsung ATIC Smart PC 500T is one example, based around a new Atom core and built around a big (for tablets) 11.6" screen, but there's an Ivy Bridge upgrade available in the 700T. Meanwhile, Microsoft's Surface Pro shows us a different vision of the convertible."

The Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2 just arrived at our office this week and before our full review we wanted to show our readers a quick overview on the design, features, accessories and performance of this 1.3 lbs Intel Atom Z2760 based computer. Running a full version of Windows 8 Pro, and not the somewhat limited Windows RT found on the MS Surface and ASUS VivoTab RT, the Tablet 2 (horrible name not withstanding) looks to be a pretty interesting device for users that want x86 compatibility and mobility.

NVIDIA to start producing tablets and smartphones for white-labeling
Subject: Mobile | January 28, 2013 - 03:35 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: white label, tegra 4, tegra, tablet, shield, nvidia, cell phone
If you thought that NVIDIA's entry into the world of the mobile entertainment and gaming device market was odd with the announcement of the Shield Android-powered unit, we have some more rumors sneaking up from Droidlife.com about a possible move to develop and manufacture cell phones and tablets as well.
While many SoC vendors often create proof of concept designs based around their own chips, none of the major players are in the business of building devices meant to find their way into consumers hands. NVIDIA appears to be taking a page from its own book in the world of retail graphics cards and is planning on producing nearly complete cell phones and tablets to be rebranded and sold directly to consumers. PC users are used to this practice already and you can see if happen with ever nearly every GPU launch - graphics cards that have the same specs and design with only a different sticker on the cooler.
The process of white labeling is very frequent in today's laptop designs as well and it is how companies like AVADirect, MAINGEAR and iBuyPower are able to produce and sell custom notebooks.
From what is in the report, NVIDIA has their eyes set on both tablets and smartphones, with plans to start designing and creating their devices around May or June of this very year. If all goes according to plan, we will begin to see a ton of cheap (but not any less in quality terms) 7-10″ tablets hitting the market, all running NVIDIA chipsets.
If this process does take hold in the mid-2013 time frame you can start to expect a lot of low cost options based on Tegra SoCs to hit in the holiday time frame. There are concerns to be dealt with though if in fact NVIDIA attempt the white label move. First, there is potential for "cheap" products, and by that I mean cheaply built, ruining the Tegra name and brand that NVIDIA has been building over the last few years. Also, NVIDIA could offend and upset other vendors like Samsung and ASUS with whom they depend on to make the "high-end" products that many enthusiasts lust over.
As a small player though (in terms of pure sell through) NVIDIA is looking for anyway it can to improve its market share and starting up a white label market for smartphones and tablets is definitely something that could open up new opportunities.

Giz Wiz Show #1502! Yep, Three More Gadgets from CES 2015.
The Doctor and His Robot Will See You Now!
RxRobots MEDi is a way for robots to make a doctor or hospital visit by a child a lot easier to take. From the company, here's the story of the evolution of the medical robot, nicknamed Medi. In 2009, our research team built a robot arm, decorated it with craft materials, and displayed it at the Telus World of Science. We programmed it to stack blocks, and to "accidentally" drop the last block. We observed children trying to help the robot arm by talking to it and even yelling at it to try again. We were especially surprised to discover that the majority of children thought it had the ability to think, feel, and act in ways that clearly it couldn't. This got us thinking...If children were so interactive with a robot arm in a science center, perhaps it could be put to use in a pediatric setting. That's when we began our research with a humanoid robot to help children manage pain and distress during medical procedures. Affectionately named MEDi, this robot is programmed with cognitive-behavioral strategies to coach children through pain, giving them a sense of mastery. MEDi also distracts them with interactive games, conversation, and music. Children who interact with MEDi during medical procedures experience 50% less pain and distress than children without MEDi. MEDi can visit with children and parents in the waiting room, telling them stories and playing games to reduce their anxiety before medical procedures.

Ribbon Spool Photo Album
By: Michele Kovack from Thoughts of a Cardmaking Scrapbooker
Don't throw out your empty ribbon spool. Transform it into a cute recycled craft project! Creativity and pretty paper are all you need to make your own Ribbon Spool Photo Album. It's an unique paper craft that's perfect for displaying photos.
- Empty ribbon spool
- Decorative paper
- Spellbinder's dies
- Seam binding or ribbon
- Photos
- Pop dots
- Glue
- Flower embellishment (Cricut - Flower Shoppe Cartridge)
Take the top off your spool and get rid of any excess glue on the edges.
Measure the side and cut your designer paper to the same width. Adhere to outside of ribbon spool.
After the edge has been cleaned a bit, paint it with whatever color you desire. I chose a cream colored paint.
Measure the inside of the spool and cut your paper. Adhere it to the inside of the spool.
I used Spellbinder's dies to cover the top and bottom of the ribbon spool.
I used seam binding to adhere my photos to, but any ribbon would work. I cut designer paper to the same size as my photos and sandwiched the seam binding in between the paper and the photo. So one side is all photos, and the other side is pretty paper.
I placed some pop dots inside the box to elevate the photos a bit.
I accordion folded the photos inside the box.
I glued it the string of photos to the top of the box. To look at the photos you just pull and view!
Embellish the top with lots of flowers, ribbon, a little chipboard piece by Maya Road, glitter and a doily.

Clarksville TN – The Montgomery County Commission selected John Fuson as the new Sheriff of Montgomery County at last nights commission meeting. In a 12-7 vote, Fuson was chosen over four other candidates, including Larry Lewis, the son of the late Sheriff, Norman Lewis. It took two votes of the commission to reach a decision.
In an informal telephone poll prior to last nights meeting, Clarksville Online asked County Commissioners who their choice would be, and Fuson and Lewis were the two candidates that received the most support. Commissioners spoke "off the record" to Clarksville Online prior to last night's meeting. It appeared that it would be a close vote.
John Fuson after being selected as the new Montgomery County Sheriff
Fuson will now serve the remainder of Norman Lewis' term, through 2014, then will likely run for the office as the incumbent.
Fuson is a corporal and a field training officer with the Sheriff's office, and says he plans to bring more "openness" to the department, and present new ideas to accomplish his goals. According to sources within the department, both Fuson and Lewis had indicated that they might "shake things up" if necessary to run the department.
All of the candidates brought distinguished resume's in law enforcement to the job. Larry Lewis, with the Tennessee Highway Patrol, Tyler Barrett, a detective with the Clarksville Police Department, Orville Lewis Sr with the Sheriff's office, and FBI agent Brett Murray.
Fuson resigned his county commission seat and was sworn in at last night's meeting by Mayor Carolyn Bowers.

Add touches of wool upholstery on accent pieces like chairs or stools. This counter stool is upholstered in tartan wool adorned with nickel nailhead trim.
Modern stools add a unique touch in this simple, open music studio in the HGTV Smart Home 2014 that is the perfect place to record, perform, or practice in this contemporary home.
The vision for this home office was a contemporary, functional space with room for the children to sit and read. The walnut cabinets provide a richness to the space and are the prominent architectural feature. The light countertops add a crisp airiness to accentuate the walnut without deterring from the color and patterns on the floor and accessories.
This home office is split into two cubilces. The white and silver color scheme is clean and contemporary, and file cabinets and above-head storage provide plenty of function.
In this quirky home office, stacked tables and desks in varying styles serve as a unique built-in display and storage system. Designer Brian Patrick Flynn cut the tables in half, spray painted them with three different shades of orange, attached them to one another, and affixed them to the wall with drywall screws placed directly into studs. He painted the walls a terra-cotta tone called Clay Pot and chose a blue desk chair for contrast.
Designer Laura Larkin created a bold and elegant hideaway for more than just work. This office is also for privacy, relaxation and contemplation
A few simple furnishings, each with great character, pull this home office together while allowing the space to be quickly rearranged for entertaining.
Neutral gray and white stripes dress up the walls of this contemporary home office. Polished surfaces and geometric shapes by way of the mirrors on the wall add to the office's style appeal.
With its own private entrance and fully stocked wine closet, this space doubles as a home office. Orange walls serve as a backdrop for warm gray, black and white furniture and accessories.
Vibrant orange is the star in this contemporary home office, with an orange upholstered bench, office chairs, and a painted bookshelf.
This home office designed by Jaimie Belew, blends traditional and modern styles for an inviting and relaxed work area.
The red-and-white chevron pattern used in the floor and chair upholstery of this home office energizes the space. The dark wood cabinetry adds dramatic contrast and plenty of storage space for office essentials.
Corner sliding doors add modern sophistication and style to a home office.
The space that was once a small bedroom made a perfect home office nook. Some much-needed storage cabinets and a stairway to the home's lower level were also built into the area, as seen on HGTV's Love It or List It, Too.
This contemporary master suite needed to serve both as a relaxation space and as the headquarters for a home-based business. The design team accomplished both goals by creating a separate nook off the bedroom that stores supplies and provides space to work.
Graphic wallpaper, a pedestal table and Danish modern chairs give this home office a retro Seventies vibe.
This dreamy home office is perfectly accented by Tiffany blue and white on the ceiling, walls and patterned area rug. A sleek white desk provides a great work area, while the black and white wall art of the city complements the contemporary space.
The Atelier at San Francisco Decorator Showcase 2013. This studio space has room for an artist to work and display their creations.

LEGO The Lord of the Rings is based on The Lord of the Rings motion picture trilogy, following the original storylines of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. It takes players through the epic story events reimagined with the humor and endless variety of LEGO play. Frodo is trusted with the dangerous task to destroy an ancient magical ring that threatens all that is good and he leaves his peaceful home. But the ring wants to be found and the road to Mount Doom, the only place where it can be destroyed, will be perilous and riddled with Orcs and fouler things. To help Frodo, a Fellowship is formed - Aragorn the Ranger, Gandalf the Wizard, Legolas the Elf, Gimli the Dwarf, Boromir a Man of Gondor, and Frodo's Hobbit friends Sam, Merry and Pippin. Players relive the legend through the LEGO minifigures, as they explore wonders, solve timeless riddles, and overcome endless foes in their quest to destroy the Ring.

Medications can only do so much in containing the pain for multiple sclerosis (MS) sufferers. Therefore, many doctors encourage alternative treatment options to aid in lessening the pain. If you have MS, one alternative treatment to try is reflexology. It is a type of massage therapy that taps into traditional Chinese medicine. Precise pressure is applied to the hands and feet and you don't have to contend with slimy massage lotions or oils. Reflexology is quite safe and provides a relaxing way to unwind and hopefully take some of the pain away.
The ancient Chinese believed that your organs, glands and other body parts have corresponding points on your feet and hands. Through the practice of reflexology, stimulating these points can increase energy levels as well as blood circulation. These techniques could ultimately improve your health and overall body function. What Goes on in a Reflexology Session?Be early for your first reflexology session as you will have to fill out a health profile so the practitioner understands your health problems and will know where to start. Be honest about your MS and describe your normal day of pain and what you would like to achieve. The reflexologist will have you soak your feet in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. Depending on the practitioner, the bowl may also contain essential oils and marbles. After soaking for a few minutes, the reflexologist will dry your feet and get your comfortable in a reclining chair or table, depending on your current physical state of health and pain level. The feet soaking not only will relax you but also provide a literal clean "slate" from which to work. Based on your particular pain problems, the practitioner will manipulate one foot at a time using a variety of pressures and stroking on different parts of your foot. After completing one foot, it is covered with a towel while the reflexologist works on the next foot, repeating the stimulation process. Your type of pain will indicate whether your hands also will receive the pressure point stimulation. Some places will bundle reflexology sessions in with a spa package while others offer it as a stand-alone. Unless you choose a spa package, your reflexology session will require that you stay fully clothed. Some sessions are short, around 30 minutes while others take an hour. Your MS pain will dictate how long your reflexology session will be. A number of people describe reflexology as a type of massage and therefore should be relaxing, or at least, not painful. While you may feel some discomfort when certain pressure points are manipulated, you should not be in pain. If at any time you do, call a halt to the session. Reflexology is typically a relaxing experience. Reflexology EffectsThere have been no full scale studies on reflexology and its effect on pain sufferers, like MS patients. However, there have been a few blind studies and the main result is that this practice does help alleviate some pain for MS sufferers. Improvements in sensory issues and incontinence were noted in particular. While not mainstream, MS patients can count on reflexology as a legitimate alternative treatment as it can complement any pain treatment that Western medicine prescribes. At the very least, you will achieve a relaxing calm that can be helpful in dealing with pain, especially as an MS patient. |
