Antec Premium Home Theater Case Fusion Remote Max
Antec Introduces Premium Home Theater PC Case Fusion Remote Max Delivers Broad Digital Media and Gaming Capabilities to the Home Theater PC
Fremont, Calif. - September 16, 2008 - Antec, Inc., the leading global provider of high-performance components for the gaming, PC Upgrade and Do-It-Yourself markets, has launched Fusion Remote Max, a premium home theater PC case that enables users to build a system that combines a multimedia center with an enclosure that has the capability to support the latest high end and gaming hardware. The enclosure is the latest addition to Antec's Veris line of high performance media components.
Designed for home theater enthusiasts, Fusion Remote Max includes an aluminum plate front bezel with an LCD display and volume control. Antec's Deluxe 56 button remote control and iMEDIAN HD media management software helps users to navigate stored media, adjust settings and instantly play music, videos and other programs. For convenient access to your MP3 player, digital camera, and other devices, the case includes two external USB 2.0 ports, one FireWire(r) port, one eSATA connector as well as audio in/out ports.
The Fusion Remote Max comes with a 17.8'' (H) x 17.6'' (W) x 16.5'' (D) frame, fitting into any desktop or living room environment. The spacious interior offers space for motherboards up to standard ATX and features one 5.25'' external and four internal 3.5'' drive bays. Seven expansion slots and the ability to support dual graphics cards enable users to build an entertainment system capable of supporting the latest games.
To ensure a first-class experience while listening to MP3s, watching movies or playing games, the Fusion Remote Max features removable HDD brackets with silicon grommets that reduce hard drive vibrations. Furthermore, a triple chamber structure separates the heat emissions of the power supply, hard drives and motherboard, allowing for quieter, cooler operation. To reduce heat around valuable hardware components, the case's cooling system also comes with a side 140mm TriCool fan and one rear 120mm TriCool fan. An optional 120mm front fan mount guides air to the graphics cards, and built-in washable air filters avoid dust-build up, further improving the overall cooling of the system.
"People are always looking for a customizable system that can meet all their different computing applications - from gaming to multimedia," said Scott Richards, senior vice president at Antec. "With the Fusion Remote Max we combine multimedia and noise-reducing features with a gamer-friendly, spacious design. The result is a case that allows users to build a top-notch system for a wide variety of purposes."
The Fusion Remote Max will retail for $249.95 and is backed by Antec's Quality 3-Year Warranty. For additional product information and full technical specifications, please visit http://www.antec.com.

BEIRUT - Syrian rebels battled forces loyal to President Bashar Assad in the Jabal Akrad mountains overlooking the Mediterranean on Sunday
and a monitoring group said at least 30 people were killed.Video footage
showed fighters identified as members of an al-Qaida-linked Islamist brigade
waving from the roof of an army tower in the village of Barouda, one of several
Alawite villages attacked by the rebels on Sunday.The mainly Sunni
Muslim rebels are battling to overthrow Assad, whose minority Alawite sect is an
offshoot of Shi'ite Islam, in a civil war which erupted two years ago when
mainly peaceful protests against his rule were put down with
force.Assad, with support from Iran and Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas,
has gained ground in recent months from the rebel fighters who are backed by
regional Sunni Muslim powers but remain largely outgunned by his
army.The anti-Assad Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 12 rebels
and 19 pro-Assad fighters - including soldiers and members of his militia known
as the National Defence Army - were killed in Sunday's fighting in the mountains
of east Latakia province.A source in Latakia said the fighting started
at dawn and that the rebels, based in the town of Salma, attacked 10 Alawite
villages.Ambulance sirens, punctuated by the sound of bombardment and
government air raids on Salma, could be heard throughout the day, he
said.Further south, in Homs, the army launched artillery fire on
remaining rebel-held areas of the city, a week after capturing the rebel
district of Khaldiya - its latest victory after gains around Damascus and in the
Lebanese border region near Homs.Rebels say they need more foreign
military support to reverse their military setbacks, arguing that Assad's
military backing from Iran and Hezbollah has turned the tide of the
war.Syrian state media said on Sunday that Iran's new President Hassan
Rouhani told Damascus that ties would remain strong.Rouhani "stressed
the Islamic Republic of Iran's determination to strengthen its relations with
Syria and stand together in the face of all challenges," SANA news agency
said."No power in the world can destabilize or undermine the
deep-rooted, historic and strategic relations between the two friendly peoples
and countries," it quoted him as telling Syrian Prime Minister Wael al-Halki
during his visit to Tehran to attend Rouhani's swearing-in ceremony.

Lexington, KY (SportsNetwork.com) - Kentucky's defense yielded only eight first downs and 139 total yards, as the Wildcats claimed a rare Southeastern Conference victory with a 17-7 decision over Vanderbilt at Commonwealth Stadium.
Patrick Towles completed 23-of-30 passes for 201 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He also ran for a score to help the Wildcats (3-1, 1-1 SEC) snap a 17-game conference losing streak and eclipse last season's win total.
Wade Freebeck completed only 8-of-25 passes for 85 yards for the Commodores (1-4, 0-3), who remain winless in conference play under first-year head coach Derek Mason. Freebeck threw three interceptions and was also sacked four times.
Towles gave the Wildcats a 7-0 lead on a 20-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Timmons midway through the opening frame, which capped a 13-play, 99-yard drive.
Vandy's defense tied the score at 7-7 at the 10:19 mark of the second quarter, when Darrius Sims stepped in front of a Towles pass and returned it 13 yards for a touchdown.
However, UK closed out the half with 10 unanswered points on a 44-yard field goal by Austin MacGinnis and a one-yard plunge by Towles.
Neither team scored in the second half.
The Wildcats defense allowed only 57 second-half yards and came up with three fourth-quarter interceptions to thwart Vandy's comeback hopes.

It's a gulf that some are now actively seeking to exploit and one that could even signal something of a tipping point for the ANC – a political unit that has, hitherto, been able to count on almost unwavering electoral support from the very communities that are increasingly showing anger at being let down.
Dealing with this social distance is undeniably difficult, if not downright life threatening, not least because it is being led by forces and formations that have not previously engaged in, or benefited from, processes of social dialogue.
Notwithstanding this reality, the onus is on government and the traditional organised formations within business, labour and civil society to engage these new forces in an effort to rebuild the credibility of social dialogue as a useful instrument for dealing with seemingly intractable problems.
True, this will be as painstaking a process as it was in the early 1990s. But such a conversation is required if we are to restart the process of building social cohesion and arm people with the tools needed to fend off those willing to exploit the current gaps for questionable ends.
There is little question that the root causes are poverty and income inequality – indeed it is common cause that South Africa is now one of the most unequal societies, if not the most unequal society, on the planet. However, dealing with these fundamental ills will involve a number of actions over an extended period.
So what can be done in the short to medium term to show that the main social partners, which have drifted from their bases, are truly alive to the plight of the poor and stand ready to take active steps to deal with the causes of poverty?
Again there are no easy answers. But a good start could be a high-profile social compact around a well-articulated vision for the country – a vision backed by short-term deliverables, particularly in the areas of education, health and welfare, as well as medium- and long-term action plans.
Remarkably, such a vision was released just as the Marikana tragedy was unfolding. Sadly, though, the National Development Plan 2030 (partly because of what took place in the North West province) has, to date, failed to capture the imagination of society. There are also serious questions about whether the plan will ever really receive the support it requires to make an impact, as it does not align neatly with the agendas of those seeking ascendency within the ANC.
Nevertheless, it exists. It is a solid product of both social engagement and empirical research and sets out objectives with which few could have argument: eliminating poverty and materially reducing inequality by 2030.
It would be an opportunity missed if the social partners failed to use the plan to generate consensus on the problems, build momentum around some sound actions to deal with these problems and, most importantly, to reinspire and re-energise South Africa's fed-up citizenry.

RIP Davy Jones, Lead Singer of The Monkees
We were deeply saddened to hear the news this morning on the passing of Davy Jones, lead singer for The Monkees, due to a fatal heart attack. The Monkees starred on their own TV series by the same name back in 1966, and although they were compared to The Beatles due to their British descent and bowl haircuts (not to mention the misspelled animal names), the group made music that was all their own. Catchy, fun, and romantic, The Monkees will always be known for their hit that's stood the test of time — "Daydream Believer":
"Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings of the bluebird as she sings / The six o'clock alarm would never ring / But it rings and I rise wipe the sleep out of my eyes / The shavin' razor's cold, and it stings / Cheer up, sleepy Jean, oh what can it mean / To a daydream believer and a homecoming queen?"
With a full, long career past the Monkees and beyond, we're thankful for the legacy Davy Jones left behind in the music world. We wish his family all the best, and will continue to watch and listen to The Monkees with a heart full of nostalgia.
Do you have any Monkees memories you'd like to share? Let us know in the comments.

Have to get on track off the tee. This is such a mental game it's amazing. Yesterday is a great example - hit balls before teeing off and was making good contact with mostly straight or controlled fade ball flight. Feeling pretty good and pasted my first tee shot down the left side of the fairway. Every tee shot after was a horrible slice or block to the right. Hit the range a few hours later and was dead straight. Jumped right it to play the two holes on my way back to the clubhouse and put two in the trees. Focus this week is getting my "driving range" head onto the course - stop thinking and just let it rip.

This is actually a what I shot yesterday post.
I played my local course that is a slope 126 and a 69.7 rating I think? Anyway, shot an 88 going 45/43 which is my best round since early June (I am playing right now to consider bogey as par). I got new irons in June and I'd say they are a little better than my capability (if you believe in stuff like that) and I've struggled a bit learning how to hit them. But I've seen my form coming back around and yesterday was a day where things were generally much better on the ball striking. I actually made 7 greens in regulation so I feel like this score is higher than it could/should have been. I had three 3 putts for bogey, 2 of which were inside 20 feet on the first put. That's an easy couple strokes right there. But I also had a couple holes where I got in trouble and scrambled well to save bogey, so maybe 88 is about where I should have been.

Shot a 75 yesterday (38-37, par 72)... The front nine I played better than I scored. Was hitting my irons very solid leading to a few makeable birdies, only one of which I converted. Lipped out two birdie putts inside 10 feet. Also, I was pretty disappointed in bogeying two par 5's. The back 9 I actually didn't play as well, but was able to get up and down a couple times and just didn't make many bogeys.

It needs changing but I haven't had an update in ages.
I was talking to one of the guys at the club, and asked about my handicap which is officially 14 (after I posted 3 scores for my first handicap), whether I should use this for my first tournament, even though, it is lower than 14, he said yes, only tournament scores count towards handicaps.
Is this normal, or just something in the UK?

Went to Athens, AL. today and shot a 73 at Southern Gayles Golf Club. It's a par 72 with a course rating of 71.8 and 116 slope, but we didn't play from the tips and I never looked up what the rating was from the white tees we were playing. I heard the owner (who was in our group) say it was about 6,300 yards from those tees.
Made 3 birdies (all on par fives) and 4 bogeys. Missed a few birdie putts that I thought I should have made but had a little trouble with misreads.
Hit my driver and fairway woods very well. Long and mid irons pretty well. Wedges like crap.

Blah, another +4 40, seriously a +4 feels like something tough to do, use to be +4 were good rounds.
-1 through 4 holes, double bogied the 5th hole, put a drive into the water. Had to drop back to 250 yards out because dropping at the entry point is down the side of a hill under trees, no way to get close. hit a hybrid next to the front bunker, poor chip and two putts later. Bogied the next par 5, pulled a wedge slightly left and long, couldn't get up and down for par. Doubled the last hole, had to punch out from some trees, and then i totally mishit a wedge, chunked it to 20 yards in front of the green. Hit a pitch to 4 feet, and the putt lipped out on the BOTTOM SIDE, the putt was a good right to break, the ball caught the lip, and got sling shoted around the hole and behind it. I have never seen a ball define gravity like that, and i didn't hit the putt hard, the ball was dying into the hole, it was freakish.
As for the swing, driver is ok, i'm having trouble with a slight reverse pivot. I find with my drives, i do the hip turn well, but i am slighly falling away from the ball trying to get the path more right. This is a bad move for me. I am trying to artifically create an inside move by leaning away, not good.
Putting is better, short game needs a tune up. Think i will hit the range this week.

Frazier looks back on '96 Olympics
- John Manasso
- Staff Writer
(Page 3 of 3)
The Olympic Games starting Aug. 8 have transformed Beijing. Twelve years and half a world away, the former chief operating officer of the 1996 Olympics sees an Atlanta that's also been transformed.
A.D. Frazier acknowledges the contributions of lengthy commutes, higher gas prices, new attractive living spaces and businesses drawn to the city. But he says the significant antecedent is that of the $300 million in legacy investments left behind — Turner Field, Centennial Park and various new and renovated dormitories at Georgia Tech and Georgia State University — with Centennial Park representing the crown jewel.
He said creating the park allowed "the city to be developed from CNN Center north — and it has. All the way up to Atlantic Station. Now Midtown is exploding."
Today Frazier is chairman and CEO of Danka Business Systems Plc. In an interview Aug. 5 at the Capital City Club's Olympic Room — which is decorated with memorabilia donated by Frazier — he compared the redevelopment to the way an ink drop spreads in water.
He believes that process occurred almost everywhere the Metro Atlanta Olympic Games Authority — the organization created by state legislation that gave him the power to condemn buildings — left its imprint.
"The same thing happened with the baseball stadium," he said.
The Atlanta Braves agreed to hire a certain percentage of their workers from the surrounding neighborhoods — Summerhill, Mechanicsville, Grant Park and Peoplestown, many of
which were impoverished — and Frazier believes those jobs have made a difference.
He also said the games "transformed" the Atlanta University Center. Herndon Stadium, with a seating capacity of 15,011, was built for Morris Brown College to host field hockey. Frazier said he was able to condemn liquor stores
in the neighborhood with the stroke of a pen.
"The Olympics can stimulate development without taxpayer money," he says proudly. "We did it without taxpayer money."
He compares what Atlanta did to what was spent by the Spanish government for the 1992 Summer Games in Barcelona, the Summer Games immediately preceding Atlanta's. Atlanta's games cost $1.7 billion and finished with a balanced budget — Frazier's proudest accomplishment — while Spain spent between $6 billion and $7 billion, he said. The Atlanta Committee for the Games (ACOG) sold 8.6 million tickets and attendance bested the 1984 Los Angeles and 1992 Barcelona Games combined.
More visitors saw female events, he said, than saw all of the Barcelona events — which he called a tribute to Title IX, the federal law that mandates equal spending in education for boys and girls. He said Atlanta's concept in regard to its infrastructure was "adaptive use" while the Beijing Games are being used by the Chinese government as an opportunity to "completely renovate" the city.
He said he and Billy Payne, the president and CEO of ACOG, "stand on the shoulders" of past Atlanta leaders and developers.
"Ivan Allen, Mills Lane and Tom Cousins. Jack Tarver and John Portman, in their lifetime, they built the infrastructure," he said. "Thomas B. Murphy built the World Congress Center. Because we had those things, we didn't have to spend the dough. BellSouth spent dough on [fiber-optic] cable."
Because of the proximity of the World Congress Center, Georgia Tech and GSU, ACOG did not have to pay to build an Olympic Village, the location at every Olympics where the athletes are housed, from scratch.
But as much as he is proud of what the games did for the city, he can still turn a critical eye on what could have been done better.
He says it would be nearly impossible for future cities to attempt to host the games without public money.
Among the criticism leveled at Atlanta — dubbed by some as the Coca-Cola Olympics — was crass commercialization.
"You have to have public funding," he said. "We had to sell everything and we were criticized for it."
He thinks with more money, Atlanta could have avoided the snafus for which he believed the 1996 Games received "a horrible black eye."
Principally, there was the lack of cooperation from, or control over, the mayoral administration of Bill Campbell.
Vendors set up on sidewalks, forcing pedestrians into the streets, which ground transportation to a halt.
Because ACOG could not afford luxury buses, to train drivers or pay professional ones, he said, the games had to rely on volunteer drivers who became frustrated and, at times, got lost or worse. "The mayor didn't help us," he said. "Not controlling the city area just killed us."
But he had seen worse — specifically, the 1994 Winter Games in Norway — and felt Atlanta was unfairly blamed in comparison.
"In Lillehammer, their buses never worked," he said. "And I got excoriated for it [here]."

John Stuart Mill proved long ago that the benefit of freedom of speech is that it assures the continuing growth and relevance of our most cherished institutions:
"The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error."
It is imperative that human beings have the freedom to express opinions about views particularly about religion when it is religion which is the cause of so much pain, suffering and injustice in the world. This is a truth that needs to be stated with greater frequency and volume in my view. If the human race does not ween itself from the stupidity of religion it is doomed to continue to suffer in intellectual darkness. Religion kills. Say that!
