With the end of the month comes a recap of the top articles on Phoronix this month. In January on Phoronix there were 39 featued articles and 318 news items / shorter articles!
It was a very busy month at Phoronix with having single-handedly written 39 featured articles (more than one Linux hardware review / driver analysis / prominent multi-page article per day) and 318 news items written (an average of more than 10 per day!). This is due to my continued devotion of enriching the Linux hardware experience and being the major sole source on the Internet for enthusiast-focused Linux hardware information.

With the PSAs out of the way, our most popular articles on Phoronix this month included:
AMD A10-7850K vs. Intel/AMD CPU/APU Comparison
Two days ago AMD launched their "Kaveri" APUs to mixed reactions. On launch-day we provided a Linux overview of the AMD A10-7850K APU and followed that with an Ubuntu Linux vs. Windows 8.1 performance comparison for this top-end Kaveri APU. Yesterday was then the AMD Kaveri APU compared to discrete AMD/NVIDIA GPUs and now today we've finally had the time to finish the tests most people have been looking forward to: the A10-7850K comparison against various other AMD and Intel CPU/APUs. These Linux tests cover a range of both processor and graphics testing from Ubuntu 14.04 across a wide selection of Intel and AMD hardware.
8-Way Linux 3.13 File-System Benchmarks
After last week delivering SSD file-system tests and HDD file-system tests of the Linux 3.13 development kernel compared to the stable Linux 3.12 kernel. The earlier testing was limited to the popular EXT4, Btrfs, XFS, and F2FS file-systems, but out for your viewing pleasure today is an eight-way Linux 3.13 file-system comparison on Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 14.04 vs. Debian 7.3 vs. Debian Jessie Preview
For those curious about performance differences between the current Debian 7.3 "Wheezy" stable release and the upcoming but currently unstable Debian 8.0 "Jessie", here are some performance benchmarks comparing Debian's stable and testing releases on the same hardware. Making things more interesting, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS in its current development form was also tossed into the mix.
Ubuntu 13.10 vs. Fedora 20 Benchmarks
To complement the many Ubuntu 13.10 Linux benchmarks I have published on Phoronix since the "Saucy Salamander" premiere in October, I've started several Fedora 20 benchmarks since December. So far I've shared Fedora 19 vs. Fedora 20 benchmarks and Wayland OpenGL benchmarks, besides using Fedora 20 as the base platform for unrelated tests, while today are some Ubuntu 13.10 vs. Fedora 20 performance benchmarks.
AMD A10-7850K Kaveri: The Linux Introduction
This morning AMD is releasing the first APUs in their Kaveri family, their most advanced APU ever with up to 12 compute cores and is a big push forward with their overall HSA architecture. We managed to get our hands on a Kaveri system with A10-7850K APU and in the days/weeks ahead there will be many Linux benchmarks looking at the next-generation AMD APU. Here's what Linux users need to know right now about AMD Kaveri APU Linux support.
AMD A10-7850K Kaveri: Windows 8.1 vs. Ubuntu Linux
Aside from sharing the Linux overview of AMD's A10-7850K "Kaveri" APU on Linux, for your viewing pleasure today I also have out some early OpenGL graphics benchmarks comparing the performance of the A10-7850K APU under Microsoft Windows 8.1 vs. Ubuntu Linux in its current 14.04 development form. These tests are a precursor to many more interesting AMD Kaveri benchmarks in the coming days.
25-Way Open-Source Linux Graphics Card Comparison
As alluded to in days earlier after finding major open-source Radeon driver improvements -- including the newer RadeonSI Gallium3D driver -- I've been conducting a fresh graphics card comparison spanning many graphics processors and looking at the latest open-source driver performance on the Intel, NVIDIA, and Radeon fronts under Ubuntu Linux. In this article is a 25-way Intel Haswell HD Graphics vs. AMD Radeon vs. NVIDIA GeForce graphics comparison from Ubuntu 13.10 with the upgraded Linux 3.13 kernel and Mesa 10.1 development driver code to provide a very bleeding edge look at what the open-source drivers have to offer the Linux desktop users.
DDR3-2400MHz On AMD's A10 Kaveri With Kingston's HyperX Beast
Earlier in the week I published benchmarks showing AMD Kaveri's DDR3-800MHz through DDR3-2133MHz system memory performance. Those results showed this latest-generation AMD APU craving -- and being able to take advantage of -- high memory frequencies. Many were curious how DDR3-2400MHz would fair with Kaveri so here's some benchmarks as we test out Kingston's HyperX Beast 8GB DDR3-2400MHz memory kit.

Inner circumference of about 5 1/4" PLUS a 1" gap that could be carefully adjusted. 36 grams...
Beautiful bracelet dating to the 1960's or 1970's with a very nice high dome cab of what looks to be high quality # 8 mine turquoise. Hallmarked HCP for Helen C. Platero who worked from about 1935 to about 1978. She passed away in 2003. Very nicely made with good stamp work. Is about 1 3/8" wide at center, and about 5 1/8" inner circumference PLUS a 1 1/4" gap, could be carefully adjusted. Excellent vintage condition.
Beautiful delicate split shank ring with nice stamp work, and a nice piece of # 8 mine turquoise. Face is about 3/4" tall, size 7 3/4 +/-. Hallmarked by the artist very good vintage condition. Give the work it looks like this ring is pre-1940. Nice deep stamps and high bezel.
McBride Lomayestewa was active from the late 1950's when he learned at the guild, until his passing in 2002. His work is not common, and is highly sought after by collectors.
This beautiful pin is hallmarked on the back by the artist and the Hopi Guild hallmark. The pin is slightly convex and measures about 1 3/4" by 1 1/2". About 22 grams, can be used as a pin or pendant on a necklace. Excellent vintage condition.
This wonderful old pin is made of turquoise, spiny oyster shell, white shell, and jet in a silver cast base decorated with coiled silver wire and other applied silver pieces. There is a hairline crack in one turquoise piece on the chest, and a small chip in the spiny oyster in the hat which is most likely original to the piece.
The tiered head dress and the low placed elongated eyes are characteristics of the work of David Tsikewa.
2 3/4" tall by 1 1/4" wide at arms, about 16 grams.
Barrettes are not common and especially ones this old, probably dates to the 1960's or 1970's. Nice heavy cast silver, with 3 very nice quality turquoise, look like possibly Red or Indian mountain mines. About 2 5/8" by 1 1/8" weighs about 21 grams, excellent vintage condition.

All Items : Antiques : Regional Art : Asian : Japanese : Swords and Related : Pre 1910
item #1283785
This is a koshirae for a tanto, the saya is new as is the tsukamaki. The rest is Edo period...
Overall length is 19", the saya is raiden shell and urushi, the koiguchi ( neck piece of the saya ) is made of iron with applied copper and silver shells. The Fuchi, Kashira and kurikata are ( I think ) iron or possibly patinated shibuichi with a plum blossom theme. The menuki are shakudo with copper and gold -- depicting persimmons...

item #1283777

Beautiful old pin made of silver and spiny oyster shell made by Ivan Kee the brother of Allen and George Kee who all worked at the White Hogan shop. Ivan began working in the 1940's and continued until his death in 1982. I believe this pin to be early work judging by the style and the fact that he used shell instead of turquoise ( turquoise was almost impossible to get between 1941 and 1946 ). Marked I. Kee and .925 on the back along with another hallmark he used ealry in his career...
This cute pair of earrings dates back several decades, reportedly made by Jim Long the husband of Helen Long. Unmarked, about 1 1/2" long by about 5/8" wide. 4.8 grams. Excellent condition.

Warren and Dorris Ondelacy made jewely together from the 1930's through the 1960's and their work is highly sought after. Similar bracelets are at $1800 to $2250.00 on line! Bernice Leekya was Dorris' sister and Alice Quam is her daughter.
This large bracelet is a fine example of their work from the 1950's or so. It is set with 48 hand cut pear shaped natural turquoise ( looks to be high grade Sleeping Beauty ) stones set in handcrafted bezels...
Fine old bracelet that dates to 1960 or earlier, possibly the 1930's. The turquoise looks like a nice piece of pilot mountain the stone has a crack on the edge ( see images ) and is about 13/16" by about 5/5". The bracelet has really nice deep stamping and is about 1 1/8" wide by about 5 1/2" PLUS a 1 1/4" gap. Hand fabricated. Can be adjusted. Weighs about 30 grams, nice vintage condition.
Navajo. Ervin was born September 1, 1970 and is the brother of Irving Tsosie. Ervin is a self-taught artist and began making jewelry at the age of 17. Ervin is known for his intricate, mosaic and channel inlay jewelry. Much of his work is based on ceremonial and mythical figures and spiritual beings representing Navajo culture. His ideas come from meditation, ceremonials and prayer. Ervin has won many awards for his work...
This great detailed ring is completely hand made, the ring body is individually cast and the rattle snake and bezel are fabricated by hand. This indicates and early date for this piece, probably the 1930's, though it could be as late as the 1950's. Has a couple of nice turquoise pieces mounted ( one looks cracked but is solid ). Excellent vintage condition with great patina.
Philander Begay has gained a reputation as one of the best makers of tufa cast jewelry. Though his father was raised Hopi near Hardrock, he is Navajo ( Dine ' ). He lists his influences as Charles Loloma, and Preston and Jesse Monongye. This remarkable ring is cast silver with a pueblo scene on the outside ( the sun is a fine piece of what looks to be red or pilot mountain turquoise ). On the inside is a ladder leading down into the Kiva and spirit symbols. Size 10 1/2 excellent condition.

Some dollar-store items, such as toys and power cords, just aren't worth buying despite their super-cheap prices.
Best Home Gifts
Kitchen, Bed, and Bath
Whether you shop at Walmart or Amazon, you'll find a large selection of cheap holiday gifts for the kitchen, bedroom, and bath. Walmart prices are consistently lower, although the items available at the two venues are not identical.

A 12-piece set of non-stick Farberware pots and pans goes for $49 at Walmart compared with $65.36 at Amazon, but the outside finishes are different. The least expensive bath towel we found at Walmart costs $3.97 compared with $11.99 for a slightly smaller bath towel at Amazon. A simple 50x60-inch plush throw is only $5.88 at Walmart compared with $12.61 at Amazon for a throw of the same size.

Home Decor.
Home decor is a category filled with cheap gift possibilities for the boss or co-workers. Here we looked at candles and artwork and found prices to be very similar and the selection quite comparable. We did have a hard time finding traditional burning candles at Amazon, however. Our search turned up mostly flameless candles, while Walmart stocks shelf after shelf of candles in various colors, sizes, and scents. On the other hand, Amazon scores in the artwork department. The day we shopped at Walmart, there were only three abstract prints that came in one of two sizes (approximately 11.5x11.5 inches and 14x26 inches), whereas Amazon sells a wide assortment of decorative art, including framed photos, abstract prints, and metal wall hangings at a wide range of prices.Home decor at Walmart.
Exercise and Athletic Equipment.
Some exercise and athletic equipment easily qualifies as a good cheap gift for an active loved one on your list. Our search of the exercise and athletic equipment aisles found cheaper prices at Amazon for similar, but not identical, items. For example, the same 12-pack of Wilson golf balls cost $9.86 at Amazon and $12.86 at Walmart. At Amazon, the cheapest yoga mat sells for $11.83, but Walmart doesn't seem to carry a simple yoga mat; the only comparable item we found was an eight-piece yoga fitness kit for $17. The cheapest treadmill at Amazon, the Merit Fitness 715T Plus, sells for $349.99 (with 250-pound capacity, 18x46-inch workout area, manual incline adjustment to 5%) compared with $587 at Walmart for the Gold's Gym Cross Walk 570 (with 300-pound capacity, 20x55-inch workout area, electronic incline adjustment to 10%, built-in fan, and MP3 port).Travel Items.
If you're on the prowl for a cheap gift of suitcases and overnight bags, Walmart is the price leader in this category: $84 for two uprights and one cargo bag with telescoping handles and inline skate wheels, a carry-on, and a small personal bag. The same five-piece Jeep luggage set is available through Amazon Marketplace for $119.99. Back to top »Cheapism.com on Facebook

the thing about interupting, not trying to be rude...totally me.
This is me too, haha.
all of us are part of a very common demo and psychographic..it's why we are on an enthusiast audio forum. :/ so it's not soo :O ....if only man. and many times i wish i can speak as well as i think. i can plan out argumetns and conversations so well. but when it comes time to actually engage or do it...i bomb so hard.
I have my bro friends easy to talk to. Whatever, but I don't get too close. And then there is the ladies. Most of the time I'm normal, but the moment into the conversation that I realize where I am and what I am doing I start to get self concious. Where should I look, what should I do... Eye contact? Or am I staring too much. Am I not making enough eye contact? This happens about a quarter to a half way in all the time..and then..it won't stop... it's sad. This is also happens with new bro friends but at a much less urgency or whatever....but it still happens all the itme. Teach'ers and what not too. I guess I'm trying to normalize myself to be like eveyrone else. to be the norm..what should i be doing,..am i doing it right?..thoughts like that. i guess
I can't tell you how many times I've found myself in a situation where I have something good to add to a conversation, but hesitated and missed my chance, then fall even further behind in what's happening because I'm still thinking about it.
And yeah, I know what you mean about the overly self conscious thing.
that doesn't happen to me often. nowadays I don't even engage anymore. I "play it cool" i noticed other poeple do it ( a lot) and is a good way of seeing normal so I usually just sit or join the group but in a non central location like leaning against the table right next to them(sitting with them and what not) and using my phone. usually im on head fi. but really. that's it. but what you said used to be me when i "tried" to stay in and join, waiting for the right chance....now HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO INTERJECT!? i always ask that, how can i cooly and flawlessly interject like EVERYONE ELSE!? Sorry Hyogen but this went into a self improving thread i guess
The old "I'm on my phone" trick, haha. I imagine it's probably a matter of overthinking and an excessive amount of self-consciousness like you mentioned. For whatever reason, you don't trust yourself to make proper observations and choices, so rather than risk doing/saying something potentially awkward or socially unacceptable, you play it safe. That way you stay out of imagined trouble, but of course the downside is that you can never get to where you want to go either.
exactly me my whole life until maybe 5 years ago. Like I described earlier...it's like playing Frogger...! The key that I finally realized is to accept yourself for who you are and are not, stop caring about what people think (of course that's hard to do, but just start by trying to behave like you don't care....start poking fun at yourself for things you are made fun of or may be embarrassed about... Basically, blatantly let people/your friends know about them--this shows them, but more importantly proves to yourself that it's not a weakness and that you're comfortable about it and confident in yourself anyway! When you're able to be revealing of your flaws/weaknesses like that, you'll be surprised at how much more other people will be willing to open themselves up as well.
Like I wrote in my last post, most people appreciate/enjoy self-deprecating humor. Most comedians poke fun at themselves, and usually the only reason people laugh is because can relate/they know the feeling of the same embarrassment. :D
My youtube channel was not only an outlet for me to be heard, but also turned out to be another way I could feel ok about poking fun at myself. My channel name is "the lamentably untalented buffoon"....anyone who wants to troll or say I suck is clearly wasting their energy.
no worries man. self improvement is always good :) Your comment about eye contact and stuff--I STILL get self-conscious about eye contact even when talking to a friend...! When talking to other people I have to remind myself that it's OK to "lock eyes" with them. You are, afterall, having a 2 way form of communication with that person. When I remind myself to make eye contact, I usually find that the other person has been looking at my eyes the whole time...haha.
I now define myself as someone who wears their heart on their sleeve. I actually didn't even know this term/description existed until a few years ago. Now, it just defines me--but when I think back, I wasn't this open at all. I have a feeling that both you and bowei are YEARNING to be able to wear your heart on your sleeve! Afterall, most people want to be HEARD, for their opinions to matter, for people to care about their feelings. I will say that now that I speak more and think less, I am not as good of a listener as I maybe once was (which is also a very good character trait) and I sometimes step on peoples' toes if I'm not careful. However, I'd much rather accidentally step on some toes sometimes and apologize than to be constantly kicking myself for having my voice/feelings repressed.
Thanks for the kind words hyogen. It's a process.
The Phone trick works EVERY TIME :) just gotta act cool.
basically i don't show my weakness's like you know. Nobody know's my weakness'es outside my family really. I don't like to open up. How can I. You can't just tell me to and expect me to :(
heart on your sleeve?..i don't know it, never heard of it.
the eye contact thing...sooooo mee. haha. but then when you realize you start thinking on what the heck your next course of action should be, do what they are doing(hopefully they don't notice) or keep doing what you are doing
i wish i can just say stuff...i just wish man..
Sometime's i wonder what went off. Why couldn't I have been like the rest of the people... having knowledge is one thing...but being accepted is very important and as social animals' even more important...
Usually whenever I lock eyes with someone it makes me feel like I'm in a staring contest and I find something else to look at after several seconds, haha.
I feel like I can trace back the causes that led to where I am today to some degree. For example, my father has a very similar personality. I'm sure I learned a lot of behavior from him as a small child, and who knows, maybe part of it's even genetic. The rest of my family are all really nerdy Chinese people, which is actually more awesome than anything in my eyes. And yeah, having knowledge can be encouraging, but it's not always enough to make you get up and do something. It seems to me that experiences are what really change people. Sometimes life needs to give you a kick.
......sooo ...soo many Asians on Head-Fi it's not even funny. Hahah and same to the staring thing as well sometimes. I try to casually look away fully watching them in perephrial vision to see if i'm doing something wrong or if they are "on to me" :)
knowledge and experience is great.....social life and all that other stuff just got traded for it... . those perfect people that can have both Y U NO BE ME!?
Hahaha. Well I'm half asian at least. Mexican, Spanish, and French on my dad's side, but I only see those people once a year at most.
wow that must look pretty legit. can't even imagine.
anyway..eye contact...kills everybody.....
as perfect as some people may seem to you on the surface, you'd be really surprised at how messed up/miserable they may be. People who seemingly have it all are constantly trying to fill the void just like everyone else. Why do you think celebs commit suicide? By the description of what you're longing to be--you'd think you'd be completely satisfied if you were a popular a-list movie star or singer... Lots of them turn to drugs and trying to find happiness with material possessions. Imagine how hard it would be if you were that rich and famous to have/make REAL friends. If you can be happy about who you are, you're more happy than most anyone around.....in fact, at that point it doesn't even bug you if someone else seems to be happier than you are. Of course, I'm preaching to myself here, as well.

Siemens will provide the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) with 57 new, low floor light rail vehicles over a two-year period. The contract is worth $205.2 million.
As the first phase of a major rehabilitation project for the San Diego system's Blue and Orange lines, these ultra-modern low-floor Siemens S70 vehicles will provide level boarding for all riders.
The 57 new vehicles will replace some of the 134 light rail vehicles in operation on the MTS lines, many of which are more than 20 years old. Eleven S70 vehicles have been in operation in San Diego since 2005. Each new car will provide seating for 60 people with all seats facing the middle of the vehicle, providing enhanced visibility for passengers and security personnel.
The vehicles will be built entirely at Siemens' solar-powered manufacturing plant in Sacramento, Calif. The S70 model is 81 feet long, nine feet shorter than the trains that currently run on the MTS Green Line through Mission Valley between Old Town and Santee. The shorter trains will allow the use of three-car trains in downtown San Diego without blocking intersections and holding up traffic.
The Quay Valley, Calif. Hyperloop track will be built using HTT's tube, capsule and station models. It will be instrumental in optimizing passenger system needs — such as loading, departure and safety considerations — to ensure Hyperloop is ready for larger-scale operation.
Milestones include the completion of snow and ice removal from all platforms and critical rail switches system-wide, as well as the addition of supplemental trains, doubledecker and standard passenger cars to increase capacity and combat overcrowding.
Company is responsible for the integrated tramway system, which includes the design, delivery and commissioning of 30 coupled Citadis X05 trams; power supply equipment, including APS -ground power supply; signaling systems, the energy recovery system HESOP, depot equipment and maintenance.
In 2009, more than a year before MDOT signed a contract to lease and refurbish the double-decker railcars, which since have cost the state about $12 million, an Ann Arbor transit official told MDOT the cars were not suitable for proposed commuter rail services because they didn't meet federal requirements.
Finmeccanica owns all of AnsaldoBreda, which is unprofitable, and 40% of Ansaldo STS, which is profitable, according to the report. The two Ansaldo companies formed a joint venture, Ansaldo Honolulu JV, to design and build the 20-mile, 21-station elevated train system for Oahu under a $1.4 billion contract.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Consultants have told the board that governs Minnesota's health insurance exchange that there is a lot of work ahead to get ready for open enrollment in November.
Brian Keane of Deloitte Consulting gave the MNsure board an initial assessment Wednesday of what needs to be done to fix the troubled system.
Keane says they're still setting priorities for the most important functions that need to be ready for open enrollment.
But the consultants say the most critical functions that still need to be fully computerized include handling people whose eligibility changes due to circumstances such as births, and renewing coverage for the more than 240,000 people enrolled so far in private and public insurance plans through MNsure.
The next open enrollment period begins Nov. 15.

Appliance review - Large family - little kids - help?
Hi, I've lurked for a while and am looking for input on our appliance package ideas. We are a family soon to be 6, with 4 kids under age of 4. Any thoughts or considerations would be great! Need to order soon and it's such a confusing maze of contradicting reviews out there! We are probably mid-range budget folks but we are not against upgrading an appliance or two.
*Ovens: GE Profile Advantium plus Single Convection Wall Oven
*Cooktop: GA Profile 30" Gas
*Venthood: Not sure! We have the cooktop laid out on the peninsula to the breakfast room so it must be an island hood. (We took our cooktop out of the island based on what I've read here to retain open feel to great room and avoid downdraft venting. However, the peninsula to the breakfast room was only other option).
*Dishwasher: Kitchenaid. (We need a large capacity DW that dries plastics well.)
*Fridge: 36" full depth French Door: Kitchen Aid, GE, Samsung or LG: We need lots of space and will probably also have a backup deep freeze and beverage fridge in the garage. Also 2 icemakers would be great. These are the only models I could find that offer 2 icemakers.
Thanks in advance!
Instead of focusing on two ice makers in your fridge, consider getting a stand alone ice maker. I don't use my in fridge ice maker much and now use a table top model with bottled water, though I'm single so you probably need something larger then myself.
Why such a small cooktop for such a large family? How many burners do you currently use on average? In a few years when your kids have bigger appetites, you are going to need larger pans so skimping on your cooktop size doesn't make sense to me. Also, make sure you have one really larger burner for putting the hurt on an 8 or 12 quart stock pot for large batches of pasta, soups, and stews.
Side-by-Side style fridges are nice until you want to bring frozen pizza's home. A bottom freezer or French Door model has a real advantages here. "Gallon" door fridges are going to be a really nice thing for you in a few years, again as the kids grow up.
With vent hoods, you can never buy too big but you sure can buy too small. The cheap ones are really too weak and too noisy to be a good choice. It almost goes without saying to make sure it vents OUTSIDE, not in your attic or in your kitchen (indoors).
" We are a family soon to be 6, with 4 kids under age of 4."
I would suggest you also consider an induction cooktop instead of gas. With small children, I would personally (JMHO) want to take a live flame out of the equation.
Induction burners don't work if there is not a pot on it. This removes the worry of forgetting to turn off a burner (which a friend of mine is guilty of all the time).
Cooking temps on induction heat up and lower as quickly as gas, giving responsive and accurate temperatures without the flame. An induction cooktop is much easier and faster to clean up. Induction also will not throw off as much heat into the kitchen, like a gas flame will, thus keeping the kitchen a little cooler. (yes, I am biased and we love our induction cooktop-LOL)
There are a lot of topics here on induction that will come up with a search, if you are open to the idea. I never heard of induction before I started researching here at GardenWeb. Within an hour of reading up, I was sold.
This post was edited by Cavimum on Wed, Apr 17, 13 at 9:16
I second Cavimum's recommendation of induction instead of gas for your cooktop. Good friends have commented on how induction could prevent accidents with their small children.
We have an Electrolux Wave-Touch convection wall oven which was installed a year ago. So far it has been perfect. I bake a lot, often filling the oven to capacity, and my baked goods turn out consistently, evenly baked and browned. The temperature probe is excellent and will turn out big roasts with exactly the right degree of doneness.
You'll find many threads on both induction cooktops and the Elux oven on this forum.

My Sarah Elizabeth Catherine Light is the Sara, age 5, who appears in the 1850 census of Humphrey Light's household. That would lead one to expect that she was daughter of Humphrey (and niece of your Patience Hance). However, I have Sarah's death certificate and it lists here father's name as Riley Light. Of course, the death certificate could be wrong, but since there was a 7 year old Riley in the same household in 1850, it is conceivable that both were children of (a deceased?) Riley, living with (maybe) Uncle Humphrey? But then, Humphrey disappears from the record, too. I presume you have read the other, earlier, responses in this thread. Some very interesting information there. Notify Administrator about this message?

Aliens have landed and want to eat the farmers' brains! You must defend the barn. Strategically arrange the crop circles to make them follow a path of your choice. Then place your military assets and blast them back to space!
Note: the cool thing about this game is that you get to create the maze for the aliens to follow. If you don't like your set up, click "Menu" and restart.
Have fun...
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
a little too boring
Unfortunately for how much money you eventually start earning, the enemies don't get much harder. Even playing on "EXTREME" at wave 30 I stopped upgrading and producing and beat the game (which is wave 51). I think this game has great potential, with the choosing of the enemy path, but overall it failed to deliver any real challenge. Good ideas, bad followthrough.
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Too easy
way too easy...
made it to wave 50 and then got tired of playing...
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
just an idea...
To make it more , and progressively more, entertaining. What if you make it so you gota purchase the crop circles. Adding complexity as the game goes on, but add some forethought because you may have to plan around the vehicles you placed already.... ehh?
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
the game had an interesting concept, making your own path. this made the game either really really easy or hard depending on how you wanted the challange. the only downside i found was that it became dull. the game started off well and then just flopped after about 5 mins of playtime.

96 soldiers killed in huge suicide bomb blast in Yemen capital Sanaa
Monday 21 May 2012
At least 96 soldiers have been killed in a huge suicide bomb blast during a rehearsal for a military parade in Yemen, Interior Ministry officials said.
The attacker was one of the solders taking part in the parade, held near the presidential palace in the main square of the country's capital city Sanaa.
The bomber detonated his explosives minutes before the arrival of the defence minister and the chief of staff, leaving a scene of carnage, with scores of bleeding soldiers lying on the ground as ambulances rushed to the scene.
The drill was a rehearsal for a parade for the celebration of Yemen's National Day tomorrow.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the blast, but the solders targeted were part of a paramilitary force commanded by the nephew of ousted president Ali Abdullah Saleh, who relinquished power in February in a US-backed power-transfer deal brokered by Gulf Arab countries.
Saleh's replacement, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, has pledged to restructure the army, purging it of Saleh's family members and anti-reform loyalists.
Hadi has also vowed to fight al-Qa'ida, which expanded its foothold in Yemen after exploiting political and security turmoil in the country.
In recent weeks, the army has launched a concerted effort to uproot the militants from their strongholds - and is closely co-ordinating with a small contingent of US troops who are helping guide the operations from inside Yemen.
Elsewhere in Yemen, three US Coast Guard trainers came under attack by militants belonging to an al-Qa'ida front group.
The three Americans were travelling in a car near their hotel in the Red Sea port city of Hodeida yesterday when the militants pulled up in another vehicle and sprayed them with machine gun fire. One of the group was injured, officials said.

Jay Michaelson Says Include EveryoneToday in The Jewish Daily Forward, Jay Michaelson praises inclusion of LGBT Jews. "Among almost all denominations, in all geographical areas, Jewish institutions have become more inclusive of LGBT people, and, I think, have been enriched as a result," he says. But, he points out, "Here's who doesn't get included: Jews who support BDS (or perhaps even J Street); people with multiple religious traditions; Jews with strong critiques of the 1%-fueled, $30 billion Jewish establishment, especially the federation system; Jews with more radical critiques of Jewish culture or tradition; Jews who don't "pass" as middle or upper class; queer Jews who don't pass as "normal" because of their gender presentation, or tattoos, or clothing." Michaelson has a point. The Jewish community should absolutely be accepting and inclusive of the LGBT community, but should LGBT Jews be singled out or should they simply be welcomed along with everyone else, including interfaith couples and families?

STEEL began his career in the claiming ranks but is coming out of the California Derby. He's run well since stretching out and is coming off his best try yet. He's worked steadily since, including a six-furlong drill that should keep him plenty fit. He is the only member of this group nominated to the Triple Crown. PRIVATE JOKE is 2-for-2 at this distance on the turf and ran third in a three-way photo in his lone try at the distance on the main track. He'll appreciate the return to two turns.

Dillon, Brunell among casualties
Being released for financial reasons doesn't signify that a player is washed up.
Updated: January 27, 2004, 10:48 AM ET
By By Darrell Trimble | NFL Insider
Since free agency began in 1993, teams annually scour the list of
available players to see who can help complement their existing talent
base. Some of those
players are on the market because they're contracts have expired and they
want to offer their services to the highest bidder, but others are forced to
search for new teams because they've been released in cap-related moves.
But being released for financial reasons doesn't signify that a player is
washed up. Sometimes they may just be in a situation that is ill suited to
their talents and a change of scenery is just the tonic they need to
resurrect their careers. Such was the case with New England's Rodney
Harrison and Carolina's Stephen Davis. Both players were in systems that
clashed with their skill sets but once they latched on with teams that gave
them a chance to shine, they played instrumental roles in leading their teams
to the Super Bowl.
Mark Brunell could be the missing piece for a contender.
With the date for teams needing to get under the salary cap approaching, there will be other big names released this year. Granted, most of them will not have the impact of Harrison or Davis. In fact, most of them will have minimal impact, like Kordell Stewart, Dwayne Rudd, Brian Griese, Jay Riemersma and Emmitt Smith. But trying to handicap who could help change the fortunes of their new teams is far too tricky at this point, so it's better to list the biggest names that could be relinquished to the high-priced scrap heap.

Photos of Kingston and Gavin Rossdale Without Pregnant Gwen Stefani
Kingston and Gavin Get Corny, But Where Is Gwen?
Like us on Facebook
Kingston and Gavin Get Corny, But Where Is Gwen?
Little Kingston and dad Gavin hit the farmers market on Sunday to chow down on some fresh corn, but pregnant Gwen was nowhere in sight. How cute is Kingston enjoying his treat while Gavin checks his BlackBerry? Maybe he's even taking some photos to send to his wife, who couldn't make it out with her boys. Speaking of which, Gwen's absence has us wondering a bit, as we went from seeing the whole adorable family almost daily and watching her baby bump grow to basically not at all for the past few weeks. Hopefully all is well with Gwen and baby No. 2, but until there's any news on that front, we'll enjoy these two cuties in the Sunday sun.

Kingston is so darn adorable who would notice anyone had a kid with all the hoopla with brangelina and the golden messiahs

I think Gwen is just waiting for baby #2 to be born, I can't wait to see the new little Rossdale/Stefani kid!

i'm sure she's fine - she's soo preggo that i'm guessing she just wanted to lay in bed and do nothing. when is she due again? her belly has def been getting big!
6 years
Wouldn't it be amazing if she had the baby and no one knew!?!?! But, being that big and preggers, walking around like she enjoys doing is uncomfortable at late stages in pregnancy, so she's probably just relaxing.
6 years
I love corn on the cob! Makin my mouth water! I hope Gwen is fine, maybe she had the baby and shes' home with the baby. Maybe no one knows about it? 8)
6 years
That pic with the corn is soo cute! I have been wondering when she is going to have the baby. There were daily pics of her and now none in weeks. For some reason i thought she was due at the end of July.

Tech hoping to bounce back big after uneven season
By The Associated Press
ATLANTA -- Coach Paul Johnson knows that Georgia Tech is at a strange crossroads to a bizarre season.
If the Yellow Jackets upset No. 13 Florida State in the ACC championship game, they will earn a spot in the Orange Bowl.
If they lose, it might take an NCAA waiver for a lower-tier bowl even to offer an invitation.
But Johnson said he isn't concerned about Georgia Tech's postseason status with a conference title at stake Saturday night in Charlotte, N.C.
After the Jackets' four-game winning streak ended last week with an embarrassing loss at No. 3 Georgia, Johnson wants his players concentrating on what they can control.
"It's like I said when I talked to the team, `There's a lot of teams in the country that would love to change places with you and have a chance to go play in the conference championship game,'" Johnson said Tuesday. "Is it a challenge? Sure, we're playing a really good team, but it's also an opportunity."
At 6-6, Georgia Tech faces an uncomfortable quandary. A win over Florida State solves everything, but a loss to the Seminoles leaves the Jackets relying on bowl scenario circumstances to fall in their favor.
Just to be safe, Georgia Tech and the Atlantic Coast Conference office earlier this week filed a preliminary waiver with the NCAA to ensure that a seventh loss would not discredit a sub.-500 team and make it ineligible for a bowl.
Johnson, though, wants his team focused on what matters now.
After last week's 42-10 drubbing at Georgia, Johnson hopes that the Jackets respond appropriately against a Florida State team that's lost just twice - in a one-point upset Oct. 6 at North Carolina State and 37-26 last week at home to then-No. 6 Florida.
The Seminoles, led by the nation's fourth-most efficient passer in quarterback EJ Manuel and a stingy defense that ranks No. 2 overall, seem like a mismatch for the Jackets, but Johnson refuses to count his players out.
"They've been fairly resilient for a young football team," Johnson said. "They've bounced back a couple of different times when it could've gone south, but they put forth the energy and fought to come back. So I think they realize they've got a good opportunity in front of them and hopefully we'll prepare that way and go up there and give it our best shot. It's why you play the game."
When the Jackets were 2-4 overall after losing at Clemson eight weeks ago, it seemed that hope had all but evaporated.
But Johnson started using Vad Lee to create a vibrant quarterback rotation with fifth-year senior Tevin Washington, and the post-Clemson firing of coordinator Al Groh eventually gave Georgia Tech's struggling defense a proverbial spark.
Even though an Oct. 27 home loss to Brigham Young - a second straight nonconference home loss that followed a bitter rout by Middle Tennessee State - dropped the Jackets to 3-5, they won four straight before losing last week at Georgia.
"It's really a tale of two different seasons," Johnson said. "The first part, you know, we lost a couple of close games, and I think it really affected us. We got in the conference schedule and played a little better. But it's been a different type of year. We've actually played far better in the conference than we have outside. Normally, that's usually not the case."
Johnson also acknowledges the undercurrent of criticism that arose from Georgia loss. Since falling at home to the hated Bulldogs in November 2009, Georgia Tech is 21-20, and the Jackets certainly haven't stirred enthusiasm by dropping seven straight bowl games.
"In the five years that some of (the seniors) have been here, they've either won or tied for the division championship three times," Johnson said. "You wouldn't know that. You'd think the sky was falling, but it's like that's probably better than (Georgia Tech had) done here in a while. So (the current seniors have) had some good wins and they've had some very tough losses, I think, along the way. It's been up and down, which is kind of the way it is most of the time in a lot of places."

Today's quote:
"My husband John Lennon was a very special man... My husband did not deserve this. He was in no way ready to die. He was feeling good with the prospect of doing a concert tour after making the album which became his last. He would have gladly changed his position with the 'subject,' and live the life of protection that the 'subject' enjoys now... John cannot do any of that now."

LSU QB Perrilloux returns from suspension
BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU quarterback Ryan Perrilloux returned from suspension and could be allowed to practice with the team by Monday.
Perrilloux, who finished last season as heir apparent for the starting job, must make up six workouts he missed while on team suspension before he can practice, coach Les Miles said Thursday. If Perrilloux finishes those workouts by this weekend, he could get back on the field next week and might play in the Tigers' spring game on April 5.
"Ryan has a chance to play in the game if he does the things he should be doing," Miles said. "He will be allowed to compete fully for the position."
Miles suspended Perrilloux in February, shortly before spring practice began, for unspecified team violations. Perrilloux's former high school coach, who remains close to the quarterback and his family, has said Perrilloux missed a mandatory team meeting, then missed classes to attend his father's funeral without notifying coaches.
It was the third suspension for Perrilloux, who was considered the favorite to succeed Matt Flynn after leading LSU to two victories -- including the Southeastern Conference championship game -- when Flynn, a senior, was injured during the 2007 season.
Andrew Hatch, a transfer from Harvard, and Jarrett Lee, a freshman who was redshirted last season, have been handling quarterback duties during spring practice.
"We are not ready to rely upon anybody at the quarterback spot," Miles said. "We have three guys there. There will be a competition. Perrilloux has to compete."
Miles said Perrilloux began weight room workouts and running on Wednesday.
Perrilloux was among the nation's most coveted high school quarterback prospects when he joined the Tigers. He appeared to be fulfilling his promise in 2007, after redshirting in 2005 and playing sparingly as a third-stringer in 2006.
In May 2007 he was suspended from the team after he was cited for trying to illegally board a Baton Rouge riverboat casino by using his older brother's driver's license. He was reinstated in August.
In October, the week before the Alabama game, he was barred from practice for his role in a nightclub brawl.

T.I. - Stay
Artist: T.I.
Featuring: Victoria Monét
Producer: Tommy Brown, Tommy Parker
Paperwork: The Motion PictureAvg Rating: 4.0 ( 6 votes )
I'd say these were particularly turbulent times for T.I., but since when has TIP's life been tranquil? As his beef with Floyd Mayweather continues to cause headlines, and his wife Tiny releases a song titled What The F@#K You Gon Do?, it's safe to assume that T.I.'s new joint, Stay, is directly about his evidently troubled marriage. Featuring a hook from Victoria Monet and some deeply honest lyrics from T.I., it's not clear yet if Stay will appear on TIP's upcoming album, Paperwork (the song was originally intended for Samsung), but like his marital status, expect some more definitive answers to emerge shortly.
