Darryl Sutter: the good
Pat Steinberg
April 30 2010 01:39PM
As the NHL playoffs and the offseason for the Calgary Flames continues, the topic of upper management and their future continues to be a hot topic. It's also a topic I've had a hell of a time forming an opinion on, as I've gone back and forth on how I feel about the whole thing. As such, I've tried to really plot out different argument points, and I've decided to trot out a "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" set when it comes to GM Darryl Sutter.
Ted's Take is Wrong

I actually Agree With Brian Burke on Something!
Kent Wilson
April 28 2010 12:16PM
It's been interesting to see Brian Burke operate in Toronto as he tries to basically rebuild the team from scratch. Some of his strategies have struck me as ill-founded (copious amount of dollars spent on the blueline) while other have seemed downright ridiculous (truculence! Paying more than league minimum for pugilist Colton Orr...).

Over the last few weeks, while the Flames have been scheduling tee times and sitting around the house watching playoff hockey, we, the lowly hockey fans and writers, have been wallowing in a series dismal of "what-if" scenarios. But here's a what-if no one has tackled yet.

Bishop Ochoa's Farewell Mass
POSTED: Monday, January 16, 2012 - 10:57pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 - 8:56am
EL PASO - Hundreds filled Saint Patrick's Cathedral Monday night to bid farewell to Bishop Armando Ochoa.
Ochoa served as bishop of the Catholic Diocese of El Paso for 15 years. He was appointed bishop in 1996. Ochoa informed parishioners in December he would be leaving to California after being appointed fifth bishop of the Diocese of Fresno by the Vatican.
He began his final mass in El Paso Monday night by acknowledging those in the audience.
"Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have allowed me to build the kingdom of god," said Ochoa.
His final mass came just days after he filed a lawsuit against Father Michael Rodriguez. Rodriguez was a priest at the San Juan Bautista Parish. He has since been temporarily reassigned to Presidio, Texas.
According to the lawsuit filed on January 11th, Ochoa says Rodriguez wasn't depositing donations into the proper account and accuses him of mishandling church money.
Rodriguez defended himself against the allegation in a written statement released on January 12th.
"On September 20, 2011, I opened my heart to my bishop, like a son to a father, and was completely honest and forthcoming with him as to the financial affairs of San Juan Bautista. I told him everything. He chose not to believe me," said Rodriguez in the statement.
Even with the pending lawsuit, parishioners said they were grateful for Ochoa's service. Dolores Ornelas attended the farewell mass and said the bishop will be missed.
"Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your support. Thank you for your positive outlook. God bless you, god speed and our loss is Fresno's gain," said Ornelas.
Comments News Comments
In spite of the ELP diocese loosing a unique wonderful person, the change that is about to take place can be a welcome if not entirely a neccessary wonderful event in itself. Change is never easy but new leadership with bold different perspectives is often needed to help keep the faithful moving in the right direction.
Sad chapter in the city of El Paso.
You failed to spell God with a capital G !!!

Contact Energy COO moves to CFO
PUBLISHED: 01 Jun 2012 18:35:45 | UPDATED: 01 Jun 2012 18:35:45PRINT EDITION: 01 Jun 2012
NZ utility Contact Energy's chief operating officer, Graham Cockroft, has stepped sideways into the finance chief job after the departure of his predecessor for a role at its majority owner Origin.
Origin owns 52.8 per cent of Contact Energy.
Prior to Contact, Cockroft worked for 20 years at BG Group in a variety of jobs, including finance, strategy, business development and asset management.
Cockroft and Elliott will start in their new roles on July 2.

A friend asked me if I thought what Light was doing, as Kira, was right and if I was in the Anime or this was a real situation would I follow Kira or be against him.
I was really interested and thought about it a fair bit. I mean I saw where he was coming from and I always wounder was it truly evil. He defiantly turned evil towards the end but at the beginning of the anime, I saw where he was coming from. I think if he just killed murderers with solid evidence, then maybe I would support him. However, I am a big fan of L and was always on his side.
As a Death Note fan, I am really curious as to know what others think about what he was doing.
I have just finished watching the first season of Code Geass and I will be watching the second one shortly. Amazing series I have to say. Very interesting with good plot and twists. Anyway what I wish to ask is about Soul Eater. After I finish the second series, which shouldn't take me long as I get really into them, I want to watch Soul Eater. I have heard some good stuff from friends about it and I wanted to ask if anyone is able to write up a small summary of what it is about without any spoilers to see if it would be of any interest to me.
Thanks for reading! :)

I started this anime website earlier in the week and i would just like to put up a quick blog post to say thank you to all who have been helping me! I appreciate the kindness :)
I am more newer to the anime series and movies than manga art. I have been looking at manga art for several years now and i love to draw it. I thought by watching anime series and movies might improve on my drawing a little more and also be influenced by some of the work and now thanks to many of you i have created a list in my notebook of suggestions
I am now more confident on this website and hope to share my drawing with you that i have either created myself or drawings of my most favorite character to draw :)
Thank you to all who helped again, it is much appreciated :)
To start with, if nobody is aware of this anime, i will tell you the basic just of what the series is about. The 'death note' is a notebook that allows you to kill anybody you like just by writing their name into the notebook whilst picturing the face of the person. The death note has several rules to it these include:
- The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
- This note will not take effect unless the writer has the person's face in their mind when writing his/her name. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.
- If the cause of death is written within the next 40 seconds of writing the person's name,
- it will happen.
- If the cause of death is not specified, the person will simply die of a heart attack.
- After writing the cause of death, details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds
- The notebook shall become the property of the human world, once it touches the ground of (arrives in) the human world.
- The owner of the note can recognize the image and voice of the original owner, i.e. a God of death/Shinigami.
- The human who uses the notebook can neither go to Heaven nor Hell.
- If the time of death is written within 40 seconds after writing the cause of death as a heart attack, the time of death can be manipulated, and the time can go into effect within 40 seconds after writing the name.
- The human who touches the Death Note can recognize the image and voice of its original owner, a Shinigami, even if the human is not the owner of the note.
- The person in possession of the Death Note is possessed by a god of death, its original owner, until they die.
- If a human uses the note, a god of death usually appears in front of him/her within 39 days after he/she uses the note.
- Gods of Death, the original owners of the Death Note, do not do, in principle, anything which will help or prevent the deaths in the note.
- A Shinigami has no obligation to completely explain how to use the note or rules which will apply to the human who owns it unless asked.
- A Shinigami can extend their own life by putting a name on their own note, but humans cannot.
- A person can shorten his/her own life by using the note.
- The human who becomes the owner of the Death Note can, in exchange of half his/her remaining life, get the eyes of the Shinigami which will enable him/her to see a human's name and remaining life span when looking through them.
- A god of death cannot be killed even if stabbed in his heart with a knife or shot in the head with a gun. However, there are ways to kill a Shinigami, which are not generally known to the Shinigami.
- The conditions for death will not be realized unless it is physically possible for that human or it is reasonably assumed to be carried out by that human.
- The specific scope of the condition for death is not known to the Shinigami, either. So, you must examine and find out.
These are not all the rules but the main and you get the idea of what the death note does.
So it all begins when a shinigami (god of death) named 'ryuk' drops his notebook into the 'human world' A young high school student, Light Yagami, finds the notebook on the floor and decides to kill off all criminals and become a 'god' of the 'new world' by getting rid of all evil. It later becomes battle to the death between the two greatest minds the world has between L and Light.
What is good about this anime is that you could take a side of either L, a very talented detective, or Light. L doesn't believe all criminals should be killed and works with police to stop light or aka 'Kira'.
I don't want to go into the entire series and say what i thought was best but i want to say what i thought about the death of L. After L dies, the anime seems to die a bit. I wouldn't mind if he died at the end of the series with Light but bringing Near into it was just like a smaller, younger version of L and i didn't like him at all really.
What i wanted to ask in this post, to the fans of death note, is what you think the ending should of been like. So an alternative ending? Or do you actually like the ending how it was, if so why do you think that?
Hi, I am xBlazingStar94x or for short just blaze, i recently joined Anime Vice after finding it when looking at concept art and stuff. I love anime and manga! This site seems pretty cool so i thought i might as well jump in now and see what it is like considering i am such a big fan of manga! Personally, i prefer the dark manga. My favorite will defiantly have to be death note series. I watched the series first and now i am reading the manga books. By now i am sure many of my college class mates can see that, considering it is always my desktop background and love drawing L!, of course he is my favorite all time manga character!
I have heard that hellsing is meant to be a really good anime series so i plan i read and watch that. I will have to have a look in my usual place i buy manga books :)
I might as well list some other i plan to read or watch: Akira and Bleach. Now i don't think these a dark anime's that i like usually but i have heard mixed things about bleach. If you wish to talk to me about that and tell me what you think of it (if you have seen or read it) i would be happy to take and comments that you think of it or what i should be expecting. As for Akira i have been told a bit about it so i plan to see what that is like with my friend.
Anyway i can't be bothered typing loads and i really just wanted to post a blog so i think i will end this first blog right now by leaving you with a quote from death note :P
"Will you be eating that cake?...say what you want, but I will be taking the cake."
Thanks for reading :)

The origin of magnetic polarizability in metamaterials at optical frequencies - an electrodynamic approach
Optics Express, Vol. 15, Issue 14, pp. 8871-8883 (2007)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (2733 KB)
We explain the origin of the electric and particular the magnetic polarizabiltiy of metamaterials employing a fully electromagnetic plasmonic picture. As example we study an U-shaped split-ring resonator based metamaterial at optical frequencies. The relevance of the split-ring resonator orientation relative to the illuminating field for obtaining a strong magnetic response is outlined. We reveal higher-order magnetic resonances and explain their origin on the basis of higher-order plasmonic eigenmodes caused by an appropriate current flow in the split-ring resonator. Finally, the conditions required for obtaining a negative index at optical frequencies in a metamaterial consisting of split-ring resonators and wires are investigated.

You are correct. That water had gasses in it before the fracking started.
You are not correct. There was never any hydraulic fracturing in the vicinity of the flaming faucet in the first "documentary". The second "documentary" didn't even bother to find a well with gas in the water, he just connected a propane tank to the garden hose.

After three days spent recuperating from their exertions over South Africa, the Indians trained in the cold of London, under the imposing gaze of The Oval's steep, old pavilion.
After Cardiff, without the tempering influence of the ocean, an empty cricket ground suddenly seems a lot more frigid. The batsmen turned out in their thermals and half-sleeved pullovers at the nets; Virat Kohli did his fielding drills with gloves on; Vinay Kumar, perhaps happier in the perennial mildness of Bangalore, bowled with a skull cap pulled down over his ears.
The West Indians did not seem particularly enamoured with the chill either. Their coach Ottis Gibson was only half-joking when he wished it was "10 degrees warmer." "We're warm-blooded creatures; we from the Caribbean and you from India."
It will be in this biting, alien air then that India and the West Indies meet for their Group 'B' Champions Trophy tie on Tuesday. Victory here will help but not guarantee progress to the semifinals; defeat, similarly, will not mean elimination.
Different conditions
India arrives here on the back of a strong win over South Africa, but conditions in Wales — where, on a fine batting strip, both sides crossed 300 — were vastly different. Here at The Oval, both sets of fast bowlers prospered when the West Indies played Pakistan on Friday.
Acclimatising to these conditions, where the rival already holds the upper hand, will thus be India's primary task. The team did not practise in the three days since Cardiff; it is to be seen if that will come to matter.
The surface that hosted the Pakistan game is to be pressed into service again; whether this second use will mean some departure from its lively nature, as M.S. Dhoni believed, or not affect it greatly, as Gibson said he had been told by the ground-staff, will have to be observed.
In any event, Kemar Roach and Ravi Rampaul will relish the prospect of bowling with the new ball under these skies. The West Indies captain Dwayne Bravo, whose skills at the death Dhoni is more than aware of, also holds some threat.
These bowlers may not induce fear in India's fine batsmen, but they will be effective.
Extra seamer
While Bhuvneshwar Kumar — the best swing bowler in the side — and Umesh Yadav will doubtless enjoy the thought of operating here, India could also consider fielding an extra seam bowler. This would have to come, however, at the expense of either Ravindra Jadeja or R. Ashwin, both of whom are hard to ignore.
Should Ashwin be left out, though, Suresh Raina — who sent down six overs in the opening game — and Rohit Sharma can provide cover.
The West Indies' batsmen may not be the most consistent in the world but in Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels, and Kieron Pollard further down the order, there is endless potential for damage.
Except for the three, no player crossed 20 in the last game as the West Indies hobbled over the line in its chase of 170. As such, stopping them will be foremost on Dhoni's mind.
The IPL has made both sets of players greatly familiar with each other. Bravo, Gayle, Pollard and Sunil Narine have shared changing rooms with their Indian adversaries. This should make for some warm exchanges; in any case, the teams are already united by their hatred for the cold.
The teams (from): India: M.S. Dhoni (capt.), M. Vijay, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja, R. Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umesh Yadav, Ishant Sharma, Rohit Sharma, Amit Mishra, Irfan Pathan, Vinay Kumar.
West Indies: Dwayne Bravo (capt.), Chris Gayle, Johnson Charles, Darren Bravo, Marlon Samuels, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Kieron Pollard, Sunil Narine, Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Darren Sammy, Jason Holder, Devon Smith, Tino Best.

Dwight D. Eisenhower
Where The Eagle Landed: Afghanistan, Canada, France, Germany, Greece, India, Iran, Italy, Korea, Mexico, Pakistan, Tunisia Turkey, United Kingdom
Home and abroad: Dwight D. Eisenhower might have had a great career as a travel agent (after all, he planned the most complicated expedition in history, the D-Day landing in Normandy), but he was also a world traveler in his own right. Despite his love of his Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, farmhouse, and the calm pleasures of fishing and golf (he once gave his valet permission to shoot to kill any squirrels found burying acorns in the White House putting green), Ike knew that the job also required a more aggressive form of travel. He was swept into the White House with a promise to go overseas ("I will go to Korea"), which he fulfilled even before entering office. Then he continued to hit the road, ultimately visiting far more countries (35) than any president had previously. Eisenhower used travel as a creative way to engage America's friends and allies around the world. In addition to visiting the expected NATO capitals, he went out of his way to see parts of the world that had become newly relevant to the United States in the changed landscape of the Cold War. Eisenhower was received in Turkey with great warmth, and in Pakistan (pictured), he drove through huge crowds in an open carriageunthinkable today. In India, people cheered, "Long live the king of America!"

X79 Motherboard Roundup Video Preview
Subject: Motherboards | November 14, 2011 - 02:51 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: x79, video, msi, Intel, gigabyte, asus
I am sure by now you have been reading our review of the new Sandy Bridge-E processors, in particular the Core i7-3960X, but we only had a brief mention of the various X79 motherboards we had in-house in that article. (Which if you haven't read yet, you definitely should!)
Over the course of the last 14 days or so, we have seen and played with:
- ASUS Rampage IV Extreme
- ASUS Sabertooth X79
- ASUS P9X79 Pro
- Gigabyte X79-UD3
- Intel DX79SI
We will have reviews of all of these boards in the coming days, but I wanted to at least make sure you saw each of these motherboards in our video roundup and preview.
Stay tuned to PC Perspective for more on the X79 platform and Sandy Bridge-E!!
More industry fallout from the flooding in Thailand
Subject: General Tech | November 9, 2011 - 12:43 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: asus, gigabyte, ECS, asrock, msi, market share
With HDD shortages come a reduced demand for most PC components as shipping a system without a hard drive tends to be frowned upon. This will be hitting motherboard makers fairly hard over the last quarter of 2011. DigiTimes reports an estimated 20% drop for Gigabyte; MSI, ECS and ASRock are expecting around a 10% decrease and ASUS projects somewhere in the neighbourhood of 5-10%. We can certainly hope that there will be discounts offered in the attempt to focus on upgraders. A nice price on some of the new motherboards that have just come onto the market might draw the attention of those who already have a fully functional PC but are considering a possible hardware refresh.
"Motherboard makers have been impacted by HDD shortages arising from flooding in Thailand since mid-October, and are expected to see their fourth-quarter shipments decrease 10-15% on quarter, according to industry sources.
Gigabyte Technology may see shipments falling 20-25% from five million in the third quarter to below four million in the fourth."

MSI's new mid price, moderately powerful gaming laptop
Subject: Mobile | November 8, 2011 - 02:02 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: msi, gaming laptop, GT683R
MSI's new gaming notebook has a 2.6GHz i5-2410M, a GTX560M 1.5GB and a strangely unbalanced RAM setup with a single 4GB and a single 2GB stick of DDR3. Externally, two USB 3.0 and two USB2.0 are available, a single eSATA port, four audio jacks, a card reader and HDMI and VGA will give you external video. The external video may be quite important to you if you plan on gaming as the default 1366x768 resolution will not stress the GTX560M. Drop by Madshrimps for a complete look at MSI's competitively priced GT683R gaming laptop.
"After testing MSI's GT780 gaming notebook I must admit I was pretty impressed by it's allround and gaming performance. Of course, a high end gaming notebook also carries a pretty beefy price tag. big screen , decent powerful GPU and CPU, 8Gb of ram, dual harddrives. Well the price tag for the included components was fair, but what happens if you want a gaming notebook and don't have 1500 euros to cash out? Todays reviewed MSI GT683R laptop might have you covered for a fraction of the price. The specifications of the GT683 don't seem that impressive at first glance, but maybe it can still pack some serious punch. Let's open the box and see what's inside."

MSI sent us a little tease showing off their upcoming X79 motherboards, with 3 ATX models and an mATX as well. You can see the MSI X79A-GD65 8D, the MSI X79A-GD65, MSI X79A-GD45 and the X79MA-GD4 pictured below. The most obvious difference between the first two models is the number of DIMM slots, with the 8D sporting a total of 8 slots compared to 4 in the second model, though both do support Quad Channel DDR3. The second two have less PCIe slots than the higher end boards, with the X79MA board being the mATX member.
All three full sized boards support OC Genie, and all support THX audio, bear both SLI and CrossFire logos and MSI's Military Class components. The two GD65 models both have V-Points for checking voltages across the board, though only the 8D model has LCD readouts for post codes. Click on the pictures below for much larger versions.

A best of three HD 6950 battle royal
Subject: Graphics Cards | October 26, 2011 - 05:36 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: hd 6950, amd, gigabyte, msi, xfx, factory overclocked
Heading to The Tech Report will bring you to a round up of HD6950's including Gigabyte's GV-R695OC-1GD, the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III 1G/OC and the XFX HD-695X-ZDDC. The GPU clocks range from 830MHz to 870MHz and RAM ranging from the stock 1250MHz to 1350MHz, with the MSI and XFX offering their own overclocking tools and Gigabyte relying on the Catalyst Control Center for further overclocking. MSI's offering came out looking very good, with the best performance and the best power efficiency and thanks to a mail in rebate it picks up the best ratings in the round up. It is a close race though with the cards performing very similarly, as you can see in the review.
"We've gathered three souped-up Radeon HD 6950 graphics cards from Gigabyte, MSI, and XFX. Which one delivers the most bang for your buck?"

Trim the memory and crank the voltages; MSI's R6950 Twin Frozr III PE
Subject: Graphics Cards | October 17, 2011 - 12:09 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: R6950 1GB Twin Frozr III Power Edition, msi, hd6950, factory overclocked
The MSI R6950 1GB Twin Frozr III Power Edition is a bit of an odd duck. While it comes with MSI's custom cooler, the Twin Frozr III, and a 50MHz overclock on both the RAM and GPU, it sports only 1GB of GDDR5 which is half of what a reference card possesses. On the other hand MSI has given you direct control over the voltages being fed to the GPU, memory and VDDCI, overclockers might find themselves more interested than they might have thought at first. [H]ard|OCP compared it to a reference 2GB HD6950 and only saw issues with the smaller memory size when enabling anti-aliasing on games which did not support FXAA or MLAA, apart from that there was little real impact from having 1GB of RAM. On the other hand the overclocking showed a lot of potential, though [H] did feel that they could have pushed the card further with updated MSI Afterburner overclocking software.
"Today we will be looking at a 1GB Radeon HD 6950 from MSI sporting its latest cooling innovation, the Twin Frozr III. Will 1GB of VRAM constrain the Twin Frozr III, or will Triple Over-Voltage support give it enough boost to soar past a 2GB HD 6950 and GeForce GTX 570?"

Introduction and Features
Courtesy of MSI
Micro-Star International, better known as MSI, has been busy little bees in 2011 to fend off fierce competition from ASUS, Gigabyte and other motherboard vendors. This year's launch of the Z68 chipset from Intel combined the capabilities and features from the H67 and P67 chipsets, and MSI capitalized on this when they joined forces with LucidLogix to include their Virtu technology in their latest Z68A-GD80 motherboard. Lucid's Virtu tech provides users with switchable graphics, which allows users to enjoy both graphics power of integrated GPU and discrete GPU.
Courtesy of MSI
MSI also used the Z68A-GD80 as their first motherboard to support PCI Express 3.0, which boosts 32GB/s of transfer bandwidth and makes this mobo a bit more future proof for users looking for their next hardware upgrade. MSI also upgraded their BIOS system to ClickBIOS II, which provides a consistent user interface both in the UEFI BIOS and in Windows. Users can control their system settings directly from Windows and the GUI also supports touchscreen controls.
Continue reading our review of the MSI Z68A-GD80 G3 motherboard!!
Introduction and Design
When the Apple MacBook Air originally debuted, geeks took note, and Windows laptop manufacturers ramped up efforts to meet that super-thin laptop on its own turf. Surprisingly, one of the first to respond was MSI, a company that is still struggling to define itself among a mainstream American market dominated by the likes of HP, Toshiba, Dell, and others.
MSI managed to significantly undercut the Air with its X340, but the build quality was also nowhere near what Cupertino's engineers had managed. Yet MSI is not one to give up, and they've made moves to refine the X series over the years. As the price has dropped further, and the processor selection changed, comparisons to the Air have become less obvious.
That's particularly true with this latest MSI X370, which now makes use of the AMD E-350 Fusion APU. This processor is nothing new, and we've tested it before at PC Perspective. Yet this laptop is different from any previously we've reviewed product with this processor because of its size.

Putting the PCIe 3.0 slot before the card, MSI's new Z68 board

Tagged: z68, msi, Z68A-GD65-G3, sandy bridge, lga1155
When [H]ard|OCP reviewed the MSI Z68A-UD3H B3, they took some time examining MSI's version of UEFI called Click BIOS; it did not come out well, they panned it as horrible. MSI listened to their suggestions as well as comments from other sites and users and developed the Click BIOS 2, which is first hitting the market in the Z68A-GD65-G3. That BIOS, barring a few small issues, came out much better and seemed more in line with the other main release of the UEFI from ASUS. Apart from that feature, the board also a pair of PCIe 16x slots (which happen to be Version 3.0) as well as three PCIe 1x slots. Externally it sports HDMI and DVI out, as well optical and analog SP/DIF ports, two USB 3.0 ports as well as four USB 2.0 ports; internally four SATA 6GB/s and four SATA II ports will keep storage fanatics happy. The bundled control software received poor marks but for manual overclockers [H] leaves you with this comment ... "the only motherboard we have ever tested that allowed us to stably overclock our 2500K CPUs to 5GHz"
"In the motherboard business, it's about differentiating the product. Once in awhile a motherboard manufacturer like MSI does just that before "the other guy." And that's where the Z68A-GD65-G3 comes in bringing PCI-Express Generation 3 support and a new UEFI interface to the table."

IDF 2011: MSI Shows Off Upcoming X79 Motherboards
Subject: Motherboards, Processors | September 14, 2011 - 10:59 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: x79, sandy bridge-e, msi, idf 2011, idf
Many of Intel's partners are on hand at IDF to showcase upcoming products and I was able to stop by the MSI booth yesterday to get a peek into the future of the X79 chipset. This chipset will launch with the upcoming Sandy Bridge-E processors (for enthusiast) sometime later this year and introduce a new processor socket (Socket 2011) as well as some new features like dozens of PCI Express connections and quad-channel memory.
The flagship board on display was the X79A-GD65 (8D) that is one of the few X79 boards I have seen sporting 8 DIMM slots (hence the name) and capacities as high as 64GB! Most of the MSI features we have come to love on current motherboards are going to be on this line as well including Military Class components, OC Genie II and the much updated and improved ClickBIOS II.
The board is completely 3-Way SLI ready (and CrossFire as well) and sports three total PCI Express 3.0 slots at x16 bandwidth but also adds in three more PCIe 2.0 slots for good measure.
There are 4x USB 3.0 ports, 12x USB 2.0 ports, 4x SATA 6G ports and 4x SATA 3G ports. Needless to say the X79 platforms are going to be an enthusiast's dream.
MSI is also likely to include a new breakout box with X79 motherboards that will reside in a 5.25-in bay slot on your case (and honestly I need more things to use up there these days) and give you a couple of USB ports, an OC Genie button that will double as a BIOS reset button when held down, and even integrated WiFi and Bluetooth. The above photo is just a mock up but the plans are in place to deliver them with these new boards.
Finally, MSI did have the much improved and updated ClickBIOS II UEFI on display and without a doubt it kicks the first version's ass. We are working on a review that includes this new implementation so expect more on that soon.

US Police arrest Sikh temple shooter's ex-girlfriend
Published on Aug 8, 2012 10:48 PM
CHICAGO (AFP) - United States (US) authorities said on Wednesday they have arrested a former girlfriend of a gunman who killed six at a Sikh temple on a weapons charge.
In a brief statement, police in the city of South Milwaukee said Misty Cook was arrested Sunday for the offense of being in possession of a firearm as a felon.
She will be referred to the Milwaukee Country district attorney's office for charges, the police said.
The arrest appeared to have come after Wade Michael Page opened fire on worshippers attending a service in Oak Creek, near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, killing six. He was shot to death at the scene by police.

On Friday, March 6th, Wall Street is keeping an eye on the February jobs report and earnings from Staples, Big Lots, Foot Locker and Chimerix. Shares of Kroger were the best performer of the S&P 500 on Thursday making it TheStreet's Move of the Day. While wages have remained tepid in recent years, Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics expects growth in 2015. The release of Apple's new 12.9-inch iPad is reportedly being delayed from the first quarter of this year to the second half, as the company faces panel supply issues. BlackBerry just announced its new touchscreen phone, the BlackBerry Leap, at Mobile World Congress -- just one of four new devices the company has planned this year.

EmergingGrowth.com Reports On PokerTek, Inc. Emerging Growth Stock Pick
MIAMI, December 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
EmergingGrowth.com, a leading digital financial media company, Reports on PokerTek, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTEK)
Feature your company on EmergingGrowth.com. Click here to find out how.
PokerTek, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTEK), EmergingGrowth.com Stock Pick
Founded in 2003, PokerTek (NASDAQ: PTEK) develops and markets products for the gaming and amusement industries. We at EmergingGrowth.com feel that the company is in the right industry at the right time and is poised for explosive growth. In the past week alone, the company papered three major announcements and the stock is beginning to gain the respect of the investment community. They announced their Distribution network for Latin American Markets; the fact that their "Poker Pro" product, which represents over 17% annualized recurring revenue, is back on the floors in Mexico; and a 78% increase in Blackjack Pro tables in Ontario, Canada. PokerTek currently has approximately 8 million shares outstanding and has operated with greater than 70% gross margins two years running, and their momentum is driving 20% sequential quarterly growth. The company is expecting to turn EPS positive with their dominant position in, electronic Poker, as well as their growing presence in emerging markets such as Mexico and South American. The company will also be entering Macau for the first time. PokerTek has reduced operating expenses by 29% from prior years as well as their head count in order to streamline operations and turn the company EPS positive. Compared to its peers such as International Gaming Technology (NYSE: IGT) Bally Technologies (NYSE: BYI), SHFL Entertainment (NASDAQ:SHFL) and WMS Industries (NYSE: WMS), all trading at an average of about 18 times earnings, PokerTek's modest valuation makes it an attractive stock for investing as well as a potential future takeover target by one of the bigwigs.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I realize I am posting this to the choir, and it should be posted far and wide for people to wake up to the terrible damage wrought by vaccines.
By injecting children with neurotoxic poison, over and over again, in compounded rounds at an increased rate of speed, the medical industry has caused this damage to children.
No, they've done more. They've assaulted, beaten, broken, and sometimes killed a generation of children – but left them alive in pieces for their devastated, broken-hearted mothers and fathers to clean up, to try to solve, as though they were a puzzle; to love the humanity in, but fear in gut-shredding terror that they'll never simply be able to . . . just . . . be on their own, these kids. And many of them — many of them – many, many, many, many, many of them – will never be able to be on their own.
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I can't help but believe this is by some evil design.

I realize I am posting this to the choir, and it should be posted far and wide for people to wake up to the terrible damage wrought by vaccines.
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I can't help but believe this is by some evil design.
this very thought came to mind when reading this morning about a mother who is extremely distraught over chicken pox being a 'deadly disease all children should be vaccinated for'.....I clearly remember chicken pox being an extremely benign disease in most healthy children-yes some get severe cases-but they don't die-my nephew for example...had them in his eyes, down his throat--everywhere--but he survived, yes with some scarring. But now, parents are running fearfully to the dr to get their child this vaccine should a case or two pop up in their town....
I find this to be total marketing propaganda played out to the public in the last 20yrs, and the increased hype before the vaccine came out how 'inconvenient' the chicken pox could be, and wouldn't if be just wonderful if parents didn't have to miss work due to this 'pain in the neck' illness that robs parents of job time. Over time the paradigm shifted to 'how dangerous chicken pox is' to now it's being touted as 'how deadly it can be'. Social swaying and programming, perhaps?
mama to two teens and two tots madly in love with DP
This was a well written article except for the generalisation of vaccine = autism. My sister has similar problems with her youngest DD as described in the article. She has not been diagnosed yet but we know that she suffered from serious life threatening side effects of the MMR vaccine. I just wonder how her new doc will adress this and if she should even bring the vaccine topic up. As we all know most docs will outright deny a connection from the beginning on since "Wakefield has been disproven"!

What Buzzfeed Got Wrong About Fort Lauderdale
13. ...an amazingly tasty meal...Have a drink at Blondies or enjoy a slice of Pittsburgh at Primanti Bros. while soaking up the rays steps from the beach!
I'm with you on Primanti Bros., even though that's more of a Pittsburgh thing than a Fort Lauderdale thing (though there is something intrinsically Fort Lauderdale about drunk, 4 a.m. pizza).
But did you really just suggest we go grab a drink at Dirty Blondes?
Instead of that, why don't you go high-five a jellyfish or grab a quick nap in the middle of A1A, because both of those things are like a million times smarter than stepping foot inside of Blondies.
Now you've just crossed the line from inaccurate to irresponsible. Shame on ya, Buzzfeed.
Ramos Keith, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
15. But no matter how you choose to get around Ft. Lauderdale, you'll probably run into some of these beauties:You're likely to spot a manatee while you're just relaxing on a Fort Lauderdale beach or on a water taxi! As for wild peacocks, you'll find them on the street in the middle of downtown... (but shh, don't tell anyone -- it's one of the locals' best-kept secrets.)
No, Buzzfeed. Those are called Midwestern tourists, not manatees. That's just straight-up rude.
And those peacocks you see waddling around downtown are actually drunk FAU girls out for Brittany's birthday, but that's an easy mistake to make.
Photo by Josue Rivas
12. The kind of view that sets the perfect backdrop to an epic profile picture...
Sure, maybe you can ask one of those land manatees you were telling us about to take it for you.
Who comes to Fort Lauderdale for a profile picture? The best view of the city is most certainly not from behind a cell phone.
Unfortunately, you will no doubt see a selfie or two in Fort Lauderdale. And if you do encounter one, the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission recommends you wave your hands in the air, try to make yourself appear larger, and scream as loud as you can.
Wait... maybe that's bears?
No. It's definitely selfies.

Review by
Darren from RedDeer, AB, Canada
I installled 2 dvc's in a box I built to 2 cu ft. and I am thoroughly impressed. Unreal lows even at high power levels yet still give great mid sound as well. I've put close to 400wrms of Rockford power to each and haven't given off signs of hating life yet. Underated for sure. Would advise single coils though to get the impedance down w/o needing 1 ohm stable amp. Excellent build quality. Highly recommend these subs.

Just installed the sub today in 1 cubic foot box, I have a jl XD700/5 giving this sub 300 clean watts and its amazing, the bass is nice, clean and tight. The construction of this sub is built to last, great quality. I love the SureSet impedance selection feature. This sub exceeded my expectations. Don't hesitate and buy it now.

Review by
Calvin from Fort Knox, KY
Before I bought this sub i spent a month and half researching subs. I've read nothing but good things about this sub. So when i hooked mines up i had high expectations and it met them. Goes low, hits cleans, and most of all is just a warm sound coming out of it. I listen to a wide range of sound and it brings it every time. I'll say the same thing i've seen in countless other reviews. I can only wonder what the G5 sounds like. I run a single sub system and i can be heard pretty far away if thats' your thing. Im a audiophile so i'm all about listening experience and this sub has raised my standard for sound.
August 10, 2011 | Beats both my Tornado Kenwood 12's |
Review by
Anthony from Wayne, NJ
This sub hits harder than both my Tornado Kenwood 12 inch subs. That's amazing and it also sounds better at a higher volumes as well as cleaner at lower frequencies. If I had two of these I think I could blow out my back window, but that would be no fun and I still want to keep my hearing. Awesome sub.
September 19, 2010 | Fantastic sub that hits hard and is a great price |
Review by
Kyle from Los Amgeles, CA
I had an alpine e10 and traded it out for this boston g212 and im blown away. the boston hits harder and cleaner and makes my suv rumble. im giving it 300 watts from my amp and could probably be giving it around 400 and it would hit even harder. id say its almost as loud as 2 10s. great sub. highly recommend.
May 29, 2010 | boston g2-jl w3`s 12`s |
Review by
bron bron bang from dayton.OH
This sub is just the best sub on earth. boston acoustic g2 is amazing for simple reasons really the sub can never blow. it has fuses on the sub so they pop before your voice coils do, very important important when tight on money. subs maybe need 100 watts to make this baby knock. or if u got a nice 300 rms amp don't be afraid to turn that amp up sub can handle it and will show for it. i had just the one boston g2 in a 32 ht ported box prefect i am a bass freak it was exactly what i was looking for got the sub on ebay brand new for 60$ half price from here but still wanted to comment of how great the sub really is. but like i said i am bass freak so i ended getting a sicker setup in two 12 jl w3s in a jl prowedge box with the g2 all 3 running off a rockford fosgate 300.1 tested in a db run at 148.
May 14, 2009 | Boston Acoustic 12in G2 |
Review by
Chris from Jacksonville, NC
I have owned two bostonacoustic G2's for about six months now these speakers are amazing. They are clear and hit extremely hard. Matched with a good amp and the right size box these will give a lot of other subs a run for there money. I have mine in a sealed box right now, they are louder than some of my friends vented and ported setups. Personally i think having them vented would produce too much base. But overall these subs exceeded my expectations by far and still hit as hard as the day i got them.
January 30, 2009 | great subwoofer |
Review by
brian from salinas, CA
ok so i just installed my stinger 4 gauge amp kit and my boston acoustics g2 12 is broken in all the way and i have to say WOW!! it hits a lot lower than i thought. i am giving it about 500-600 watts i am trying not to give it the full power but there is no power level thing so i just keep the bass boost at 6 db's and it hit it really does. i have only one in a 2 cubic foot ported box tuned to 32-33 hz and it is so smooths just amazed me. if you are looking for a subwoofer that does not need that much power to get low and pretty loud for a single 12 trust me this is all you! if you want something that is going to hit 140+ db's get a memphis m3 mojo and about a 1000 watts or a Fi BL 12 and about a 1000 watts. this is primarily a SQ woofer but being that it is so efficient it can get loud it is very affordable and i promise i have bout a lot of cheap subwoofer this one is by far my best buy, boston is the way to go
April 25, 2008 | Top 10 Deal on this site. |
Review by
Robert from Elkton, MD
I was hesitant about ordering from this site but couldnt pass up the deal on 1 of these subs. It was a toss up between this sub and an Alpine Type R. I listened to the Alpine at a local retailer, but my gut instinct was tell me to go with the The Boston. I'm glad I did. I have it in a 1 cft box pushed by an Alpine M500 and this thing is amazing. What ever U listen to this sub can keep up. The bass is so tight and well controlled, yet can go deep when needed with out sounding excessively boomy. It says it handles 300 watts rms but I have 500 watts rms running to it with the gain half way Oops! It hasn't bottommed out yet. Just let her break in for a few hours. If it blows I will just get a G5. That's another great deal by this retailer.

This is a great sub for the price. It started off slow, but after a month it bangs louder than the two MTX subs I had before. don't be afraid to push it.
Looking forward to picking up a G3 at some point.

I just bought This Boston G212-44 sub in a G-tuned box and all I can say is wow! I was on a tight budget, so I paired this package with an Alpine mrp-500 monoblock and it sounds so good. The amp puts out more than enough power. This sub hits the lows very well, and will boom when you need it to. The bass is so tight and clean i can\'t get over it. I would take this subwoofer over the JL W3 any day!

Brian from Salinas, CA
I have this subwoofer in my 1996 grand am and it is hooked up to a profile 1000 watt monoblock that puts out about 600 watts and it sounds great. It's not broken in yet but I can only imagine what it will sound like. I can turn the bass down and listen to super clean bass or I can crank it up and let it bang with the best of them. This subwoofer is worth its weight in gold, to me!! I have heard several subwoofers and i could not make up my mind on what I wanted, I finally decided to go with this one cause I have heard nothing but good news about it, and it was worth it. If you get one you will not be disappointed. I can't wait to get the new boston acoustic g5 when they re-design it.

While the holiday season comes with parties and gatherings, presents for the kids and charitable endeavors to assist the less fortunate, according to local health care and social service advocates, it can also bring on feelings of loneliness, isolation, depression and desertion ŌĆō especially for the mobility-challenged senior citizen population.
Officials with the City of Los Angeles say the city is meeting its obligations for water flow down the Lower Owens River, but there is room for improvement in the surrounding areas. In accordance with the Inyo-L.A. Long-Term Water Agreement, the Los Amgeles Department of Water and Power released its annual Lower Owens River draft report earlier this month, outlining efforts in the past year to restore the river and surrounding habitat.
Another step has been completed in the project aimed at supplying high-speed Internet access to communities along the U.S. 395 corridor. Jensen Precast, of Sparks, Nev., has been awarded the subcontract to build hundreds of concrete barrel vaults that will be buried underground at various locations along the 583-mile project.
A death on the Bishop Paiute Reservation on Tuesday night may be the result of foul play and a local resident has been taken into custody in connection to the case. Details are scant and the investigation is still under way, but law enforcement sources said Wednesday afternoon that officials are hoping that releasing what information is available now may help with the investigation. According to the Inyo County SheriffŌĆÖs Department, Daniel Barlow, 45, of Bishop was pronounced dead at Northern Inyo Hospital on Tuesday evening.
Remote control car racing is gaining in popularity and the sportŌĆÖs local enthusiasts are hoping to build a track at the Bishop Park. The track would be free and open to the public. A public hearing was held on the initial environmental study of the proposal at MondayŌĆÖs Bishop City Council meeting. There were many vocal opponents of the project, and ultimately the cityŌĆÖs elected leaders decided to review the study again and address some of the concerns raised. But, the majority of the council supported the track idea and hoped it would not be scrapped.
Inyo County Superintendent of Schools Terry McAteer and Assistant Superintendent Pamela Jones have crowned the 2011 Spelling champions. Forty-one students from nine local elementary, middle and high schools participated in the 2011 competition, held at Jill Kinmont Boothe School. Thirty-one students made it to the final rounds.
Rick Schlichting 1936-2011
Rick Schlichting, 75, of Bishop passed away Dec. 8, 2011 of a massive stroke. At his request no service will be held, rather he wanted his friends to gather at a later date to celebrate his life. Not only did Rick teach high school for 40 years, but he coached basketball, football, track and his championship Cypress High School Cheerleading squads that he took to international competitions. Rick finished his teaching career at Bishop Union High School.

Richard Moss and his wife Barbara have preserved their organic alfalfa farm, known as Cinnamon Ranch, in the Hammil Valley. The MossŌĆÖ purchased the 602-acre ranch in 1970, making alfalfa hay the primary agricultural product from the ranch. As part of the agreement, the long-time landowners retain title and management of their property, while designating how their land may be used now and in the future.
County leaders learned Tuesday that Mono County is not willing to help cover more of the administrative cost of running the Inyo Mono Area Agency on Aging program. In response, the Board of Supervisors directed staff to notify the state that it would be opting out of the regional program in favor of Inyo County administering its own senior work. Health and Human Services Director Jean Turner said the transition will not impact senior services locally, as the county is only dealing with the cost of administration, and not the programs themselves.

Stayed here for one night, staff friendly, rooms a bit scruffy but clean, however good value and location. A few local food places around but bought food from local walmart and dined in the room. A final note this hotel is very near to the freeway so if you are a light sleeper dont stay here.

The past two years we had our shirts made from CustomInk and I'll never go back to another company!! CustomInk lets us make the most creative shirts- in this picture they had a walrus (don't ask) and another year they were neon green- anything we want!

It may be counter-intuitive to do this, but I thought I'd profile some links to other great places around the web to get your Nola fix on. These sites don't necessarily have Treme - centric articles and information, but sometimes they do.
Offbeat Magazine - "Louisiana Music and Culture"
Nola Defender - "Blood. Alcohol. Content"
The Lens - "Focusing on New Orleans and the Gulf Coast"
Gambit - "Best of New Orleans.com"
