Astros set out to sweep Angels
Houston sends Harrell against Halos lefty Vargas
The Astros and Angels entered the 2013 season with expectations that couldn't be further apart. The Angels had World Series hopes and the Astros were building from the ground up with a roster full of talented yet unproven young players.
While there is still plenty of baseball left to be played, the Astros are just one game shy of the Angels in the win column and have a chance to sweep their vaunted American League West peers on Thursday.
Sitting at 11 games below .500, the Angels are off to one of their worst starts in franchise history, but some of the team's biggest stars -- Mike Trout and Albert Pujols -- believe the team will turn it around.
"We're staying positive, just grinding, trying to get out of it obviously," Trout said. "But, these are the games we have to win."
Pujols echoed Trout's sentiments.
"We're fine," Pujols said. "We're just losing series, games we need to win. It's part of baseball. It's stuff you can't control. You think we don't want to win? We want to win, it's just things that happen. It's unbelievable."
After losing six straight, the Astros have now won back-to-back games for the first time since April 23-24 and are looking for their first sweep of 2013.
Lucas Harrell is coming off his worst start of the season, but pitched 5 2/3 innings while allowing one run against the Angels earlier this season.
Harrell allowed eight runs in 4 1/3 innings in his last start, but benefited from the experience.
"I think the big thing I learned from last start is when you're making good pitches, don't try to do too much," Harrell said. "I felt like the first inning I made a lot of good pitches and they got some weak hits, and it kind of got away from me early on and it really hurt me. Just keep doing what you're supposed to do and don't deviate from your plan. When you do that, you get yourself in trouble, and that was my own fault."
Angels: Pujols supports Scioscia
Throughout the Angels' tumultuous start, media and fans have put blame in various places. Some have blamed the players, some have blamed manager Mike Scioscia and pitching coach Mike Butcher has received his share of blame as well.
Pujols has been through disappointing seasons before and feels the blame directed at Scioscia is unfair.
"He writes the lineup, he makes decisions in the middle of the game, but at the end, he can't pitch for us, he can't play defense for us, he can't hit for us," Pujols said. "We need to take care of ourselves and do the things that we need to do to win."
Astros: Players reach out to Happ
When Blue Jays pitcher J.A. Happ was struck in the head by a line drive on Tuesday night, it shook the whole baseball community, but it had a different impact on some of the Astros players who used to be teammates with Happ.
Happ spent two seasons as a member of the Astros and was released from the hospital Wednesday morning. Houston catcher Jason Castro reached out to him on Tuesday.
"He texted me back this morning and said he's feeling better," Castro said. "I saw a little clip of him on TV leaving the hospital. I haven't heard much from him, but he said he's feeling better. It's scary to see that, but hopefully he can have a quick recovery and be back up here."
• Left-handed pitchers Dallas Keuchel and Erik Bedard are both back in the Astros rotation.
Keuchel will start Friday's game against the Rangers and Bedard will start Saturday.
Worth noting
• Jason Vargas allowed three runs in five innings of work in his only career start against the Astros. However, he has had much more success against the current Astros roster as they are only 2-for-27 against the left-hander.
• The Astros, in their first year as members of the American League West, have won three of four against the Angels. All-time, the Astros have taken 6-5 against the Angels.

- Comfort
- Lightweight
- Traction
- No break-in
- NDurance guarantee
- Questionable support/stability
It's going to be tough to find something to play tennis in lighter than the New Balance 851 that also offers enough support, stability and durability. The 851 is playable right out of the box, offering slipper-like comfort. That slipper-like feel, though, while offering comfort, led to some questions about the support level of the 851. Our testers were able to wear them for competitive play, but some felt they had to hold back, as the shoe pushes the limits of lightweight support. Though the 851 may not be best suited for grinding days of training, this is a lightweight shoe that could be an asset for competitors who are looking for maximum speed come match day.
There are heavy tennis shoes and there are light tennis shoes. There's no question which category the New Balance WC 851 falls into. Weighing a mere 10.4 ounces (size 8.5), this is one of the lightest tennis shoes on the market.
A big challenge for lightweight shoes is providing tennis players with the support and lateral stability they need and the durability they want. The 851 features a nylon shank to increase the support and stability of the uppers, which are made of a synthetic leather and mesh combo. The outsole features New Balance's signature Ndurance outsole, which is backed by a durability guarantee.
Would this be enough? We sent out a team of playtesters to see if the 851 could withstand the rigors of hard court tennis.
Comfort - Score: 4.2
The flexibility of the upper materials and the Acteva Ultralite Compound cushioning pleased our playtesters' feet. Brittany said, "I felt immediate comfort when I put my foot in this shoe right out of the box. There was absolutely no break-in period for me. The shoe had just the right amount of cushioning. not too much, but enough in my heel for me to feel comfortable. I enjoyed the glove-like fit and the low-to-the-ground feel."
Agreeing, Carol added, "These shoes felt like slippers. They were very light and hugged my feet. There was no break-in period needed; they were ready to play in."
Eileen said, "The cushioning was good. There wasn't super thick cushioning, so I felt pretty close to the ground. I didn't feel poked, pinched or rubbed, just a low-to-the-ground feel in this shoe."
Tiffani noted New Balance's width options. She said, "This shoe is so supple right out of the box there was zero break-in time required for me. It's also a plus that New Balance offers shoes in widths, and I was able to test the D width to fit my wider forefoot. For me, the comfort came from the flexible uppers, lightweight feel and D width toe box. It's rare for a shoe to not feel too narrow. I felt there was enough cushioning for this style of shoe, but it's not the super cushioned feel that I've experienced in other New Balance court shoes."
Ventilation - Score: 4.3
The 851 has plenty of mesh in the upper beneath a lightweight plastic cage structure. For Eileen, this offered enough ventilation. She said, "I always felt comfortable and dry during and after playing."
"Ventilation was a non-issue for me in this New Balance shoe," said Brittany. "I never felt like my foot was overheating or I was sweating through my sock. The mesh in the upper really helped the breathability of this shoe."
Tiffani agreed, saying, "My feet were pretty comfortable in the 851 shoes. Even when testing the black colorway in the summer months, my feet didn't feel excessively sweaty or hot. The mesh added a nice pop of color and provided enough airflow."
Arch Support - Score: 4.4
The arch support sits slightly lower than medium, but managed to please our testers. Tiffani said, "My arches are fairly flat so I'm usually satisfied with the arch if I don't feel pain. With these, I had to wait for the arch to compress a little bit before I was fully comfortable, but that only took one outing, and it was never overly uncomfortable."
The support was adequate for our testers with medium height arches. Carol noted, "It was just right for me." While Eileen offered, "The arch support was just right for my medium arches."
Brittany, who also has medium height arches, countered, "The arch on this shoe was a little low for my liking. However, it did not affect my foot or movement at all on the court. I didn't feel any pain or soreness with this shoe."
Foot Support/Stability - Score: 3.4
One of the dangers of taking too much weight out of a tennis shoe is compromised support and stability. The 851 precariously walks the line between being light or too light. Carol felt on the edge at times, saying, "My foot never slid around in the shoe because the shoe really fit well. I was a little concerned, because of the close fit around my foot, that the support level would be lacking. I still am a little concerned, but nothing has happened yet."
Tiffani said, "The 851s are super light, so I wasn't expecting adidas Barricade-level stability out there on the court. At first I found enough support, as the shoes were hugging my feet. I was also getting enough stability because of this streamlined fit. However, as the test wore on, the ankle collar stretched too much. If I didn't retie my shoes to tighten them back up there was too much movement in the ankle area, compromising support. I had to knock them a few points because of this."
Also having concerns was Brittany, who said, "The stability was just so-so for me. Because of the lightness of this shoe, there is a trade-off with stability. I never felt like I was going to roll an ankle, but I did feel a slight lack of stability when I aggressively went after a ball. However, I had zero issues with ankle problems with this shoe."
Eileen took time to adjust to the fit, but offered, "The ankle support felt lower than the shoe I usually play in. The first time on the court I had to get used to the shoe hitting lower on my ankle and trust the support the shoe offered. It has plenty of support for starting, stopping and going side to side. I just needed to get used to the fit of the shoe. Once I adjusted I loved the feel of this shoe."
Sole Durability - Score: 4.2
Durability isn't a typical hallmark of lightweight shoes, but our testers were impressed here. Our testers were even more pleased by the inclusion of a durability guarantee. Brittany noted, "The outsole held up well for me. I only saw slight wear in the toe area, and it lasted a lot longer then some other shoes I have worn. I definitely like the NDurance durability guarantee that comes with this shoe."
Eileen got a lot of use from her shoes. She said, "I've spent many hours in these shoes on the court and in the gym, the sole shows no wear at all."
Not seeing much wear on her shoes, Carol offered, "I usually wear out my tennis shoes near the toe, but no wear and tear has happened yet, and I've spent about 40 hours on the court with these."
"For such lightweight shoes I was quite pleased," said Tiffani. "Their durability was on par with the New Balance 1187, which I felt was designed more for the grinding style of player. I have to admit, though, after a couple of scares with ankle stability I wore the 851s sparingly."
Toe Durability - Score: 4.0
Our team of toe draggers was pleased in this category. Tiffani said, "The cage-like design was adequate for my toe dragging, which occurs mostly on my backhand stroke. I didn't see much wear in that area."
Brittany agreed, saying, "The toe bumper of this shoe held up well to my dragging. It came up high enough that when I did drag my toe there was no damage to the shoe and only a slight smoothing of the toe bumper."
Traction - Score: 4.6
The NDurance outsole, with a mixed herringbone tread pattern, provided good traction for our testers. "I felt extremely light and quick in this shoe," said Brittany, who plays an aggressive baseline game. "I had no problems moving, whether it was side to side or up and back. The traction allowed me to stop and start with ease."
Carol thought the shoe's grip might be too good, saying, "Because the shoe is so light it's very easy to move around in. I did find it difficult sometimes to change direction, especially on a slower court, but I think the shoe made up for it with its lightness."
The 851s helped Eileen with her movement. She said, "This was one of the best features of this shoe for me. I could take off or change directions so much easier and quicker in these shoes. I felt so quick chasing down shots!"
Tiffani, too, gave a thumbs up to traction, saying, "The shoe's outsole had very good stick. There was just the right amount of grip for easy movements on the court. I never slipped when starting, stopping or making quick lateral movements. The traction was easily one of my favorite aspects of the shoe."
Weight - Score: 4.8
The 851s are easily among the lightest shoes available at Tennis Warehouse, and our playtesters took notice. It was like walking on air for Tiffani, who said, "Wearing the 851s honestly felt like I wasn't wearing shoes at all. They are so light. The shoes just move with you. Sometimes shoes feel light but they have a clunky feel, so you're aware of the shoes as you move. These are feather light and fit like a glove, so the feel was as close to going barefoot on court as I have ever felt."
Carol concurred. She said, "It's like you're not wearing the shoe."
Another fan was Brittany, who said. "This was my absolute favorite feature of the shoe. It's one of the lightest shoes I have ever played in. At around 10.4 ounces, it feels like I am not even wearing shoes, more like socks or slippers."
Eileen thought the shoe was a great blend of features. She offered, "The 851 is really lightweight, but also very durable."
Overall - Score: 4.1
Brittany - "I absolutely loved the weight of this shoe and the cosmetic options! Yay for women's shoes in a black colorway!"
Carol - "Again, I loved the fact that they were so light. A lot of shoes can weigh you down and you can feel that weight wear on you the longer you play, but this shoe does not do that. It's like playing in your slippers or playing barefoot. Easy to move in and durable so far."
Eileen - "I liked everything about this shoe after getting used to the fit."
Tiffani - "The lightweight feel and traction were my favorite performance aspects. Wearing the black/blue color, I loved the cosmetics, too."
Brittany - "The stability was a little shaky at times."
Carol - "I think the support could present an issue if the situation arose. It's a hard trade-off with this shoe because it is so light; it takes away from lateral support."
Eileen - "If anything, maybe the color I tested. I've never worn a black shoe before, but once I put it on I liked the change up from the traditional white shoes I'm used to wearing. Not a real dislike, just something different than I'm used to."
Tiffani - "The ankle collar opened up over time, and the support level dropped with that. Also, I wished New Balance would have used the same notched laces that are on the 1187 shoes. My laces on the 851s required a lot of retying."
Compared to others:
Brittany - "The fit and cushioning remind me of a Nike Lunar Speed shoe, very glove-like with just the right amount of cushioning. Durability was similar to the KSwiss BigShot."
Carol - "This shoe is definitely a top 5 shoe for me. Again, it's the lightness I love."
Eileen - "I wear adidas Barricades and will probably switch to this shoe. I like the lower ankle height and the lighter weight the New Balance offers. It felt much easier to take off after shots in this shoe. I felt lower to the court, but it still had great cushioning without any bulk. The sole durability is amazing, too, for its weight."
Tiffani - "I am reminded of a couple of shoes when I put these on, the Lotto Syn Vanity and KSwiss Ultra Natural. All are very lightweight and supple, being built for speed and comfort. The 851s are far superior in the durability department when compared with the Syn Vanity, and the 851 has the leg up on the Ultra Natural because it is offered in widths. The Ultra Natural was too narrow for me, and the arch support was high, unlike the 851."
Playtester Foot Types:
Brittany - Narrow width / Medium arch
Carol - Medium width / Medium arch
Eileen - Narrow width / Medium arch
Tiffani - Wide width / Low arch

By Dan Gould, Networx
The appearance of ants around the house is never a welcome one. Hunting for any kind of sweet substance they can find, the little pests offer an annoying challenge for homeowners trying to eliminate them.
One simple and non-toxic method to get rid of ants is by using cayenne pepper. The capsaicin in the pepper acts as a strong irritant for the ants and sprinkling the fiery substance in areas that they're looking for food will give the ants the not-so-subtle hint that they are unwelcome. Pouring cayenne pepper down ant holes will also drive them away to less irritating homes.
If you're dealing with some extreme situation, you may want to call in a professional, but if it's just an everyday ant problem, cayenne might do the trick.

AMD Phenom II X4 975BE and 840 CPU Reviews
Mon, Jan 03, 2011 - 11:01 PM
The AMD Phenom II X4 975 BE CPU
AMD has just released their latest quad-core speed-bump in order to give consumers the option for a little more bang and a little more buck. With the release of the AMD Phenom II X4 975 'Black Edition' processor, AMD has added a new king to their Phenom II X4 quad-core product line. The previous leader in this category was the Phenom II X4 970 at 3.5GHz and 125W TDP. The 975 adds 100MHz for a total of 3.6GHz. This clock speed not only marks the highest quad core, but the highest base factory clock chip in all of AMD's desktop processor lines. With a price-point of $195, AMD also maintains their sub-$200 barrier in their quad-core processors.
CPU-Z shows the Phenom II X4 975 Black Edition sports an x18 multiplier to bring its core speed to a blazing 3.6 GHz. This Deneb-based core features 6 MB of Level 3 cache which , the X4 975BE is the top of the line for AMD's desktop quad-core processors. The predecessor of the X4 975BE is the X4 970BE which has exactly the same features as the X4 975BE, but with a 100 MHz difference from the x17.5 multiplier on the X4 970 and the x18 multiplier on the 975. In order to produce the 975BE, AMD had to beef up their screening processes in order to create a new high-end bin for Deneb cores that can handle 3.6GHz.
Here is what AMD has to say about the Phenom II X4 975BE:
"The 975BE comes in on top of our popular 4-core performance stack with great speed and a sub-$200 price tag. It's a great general purpose CPU for enthusiasts and gamers alike because it has the cores, cache and the frequency to easily master applications and tasks. As always our 'Black Edition' processors come with unlocked multipliers from the factory for easy tuning."

Cmon ninez, you can defeat the paradox.

Ninez, this one was pretty good:

I thought that suited, since you are so fond of cottaging.
Peace Be With You.
Ninez is sitting there getting all stoned thinking about the cottage.
"I know you're an insignificant fucker and all, but holy lord, eat a bag of dicks."
Peace Be With You.
@Paradox Uncreated
This is Phoronix, not 4chan, show some decency.
People actually read comments because some of them are technical, and not because of your childish posts, imagine!
I have posted technicalities, and neither you or the other lamers have the capacity to understand them. And even not the ears to hear.
The disbelievers have eyes ears and minds they do not use - Quran.
I think that pretty much says it all.
Peace Be With You.
In other words you are subcattle trash, and your critisism is no other than pure idiocy, enemity to yourself and human nature in general, and to the damage of yourself.
Congratulations. I think the status of cottaging whore is imminent for all of them.
Peace Be With You.
Heres some more:
Thou errant dizzy-eyed manikin
Thou mangled empty-hearted mammet
Thou unmuzzled horn-mad jolthead
Thou puny crook-pated malt-worm
Thou craven lily-livered gull-catcher
Thou pribbling horn-mad rudesby
Thou surly clapper-clawed manikin
Thou whoreson boil-brained harlot
Thou artless motley-minded pignut
Peace Be With You.
What's with you obsession? at least you've taught me english slang, "cottaging", there must be a reason you're constantly speaking of it but you know, sucking dick in the toilets is a respectable a useful activity contrary to what you're doing.

I'm not sure if you answered the question you posed in the title or not Michael
Is MPlayer2 a viable fork?
Phoronix: Is MPlayer2 A Viable Fork Of MPlayer?
Earlier this month MPlayer2 had its second release candidate, but it hasn't been talked about on Phoronix or much at all on the Internet. This isn't version 2.0 of MPlayer, which itself
I'm not sure if you answered the question you posed in the title or not Michael
Is MPlayer2 a viable fork?
Generally, in journalistic reporting, you either ask a question and state the facts, allowing the reader to come to their own conclusion, or you bring attention to something (say, a new release of Fedora) and state the facts (what's new, what's missing, etc.), and allow the reader to come to a conclusion.
I think this article is a good example of the first.
Recently, it's been more like this**: Either ask a question and state the facts with a lot of opinion in between to sway the reader, or bring attention to something with a lot of opinion or unrelated/skewed information to sway the reader.
**not so much on phoronix, but in general.
First FFMpeg got forked, then MPlayer too.
This is a sign the FFMpeg ecosystem needs a lot stronger and democratic leadership. The lack of a strong organization behind it is showing the problems lately, but it seems the symptoms were already there in the underground.
I think it's time to make a proper Foundation (name it whatever yoy may want), with a strong look at consensus from different project members and in collaboration with other organizations. Look at Linux Foundation, X.Org Foundation and Document Foundation for examples.
Forking is a good way to experiment different paths and showing different ways. It was quite good with EGCS that showed the technical superiority and got merged back to GCC, Libreoffice forked from OpenOffice and is starting to show the benefits of open government without a very big coporate head behind it.
The most weak point of FOSS is sometimes the lack of a strong organization behind projects. This can be a non-issue in hobbyist or small projects for some time, but not when your project gains lots of importance and grow in terms of complexity. I believe that's the main reason FFMpeg and other related projects are having organizational problems so they are forking...
At a long time, I think an Open Source Confederation must be done someday. I'm not talking about some geeky utopian idea taken from Star Trek, but looking at non-tech organizations out there that did something similar to that. This can make the community stronger and also put more pressure both in media and governments.
There's an Arch AUR package, too.
I'm currently using it, and it works well with SMPlayer, and it does feel snappier.
finally!Runtime-switchable translations with gettext are now supported.
finally!MPlayer2 does not depend on embedded FFmpeg library copies and uses FFmpeg only through its public API
finally!Support for gapless playback of audio files (option -gapless-audio)
finally!Future work will concentrate on improving the interface for external GUI implementations instead.
All in all it looks like some good architectural choices are made in this fork..
"libass" is a pretty funny name btw
As far as I'm concerned, forking isn't nearly so big a deal these days because git is neat like that. The ffmpeg/libav thing was unfortunate, and I still don't think it was a great idea, but upon further thought it occurs to me that maybe more development will get done because less friction sparks fewer flame wars. (Some of the stuff that's come up on ffmpeg-devel has been pretty ugly.) Maybe we'll see a similar effect here?
There will be people that cherry-pick patches across party lines, so this may even end up a GOOD thing for the technical state of the art, if not the community/political aspects.
Michael, its "mplayer2" vs "MPlayer", not "MPlayer2" vs "MPlayer".
Awesome fork btw, definitely better than MPlayer.

And for those not interested in either WINE nor Cedega, Nexuiz 2.5 has been released today and a new Sauerbraten release is coming this month.
Phoronix: Cedega 7.1.1 Released With New Game Support
For those that have faced issues with WINE or CodeWeaver's CrossOver Games, perhaps you may want to try out the latest release of Cedega. Transgaming has just released Cedega 7.1.1, which is the first point release since Cedega 7.1 was released a month ago. Cedega 7.1.1 promises to offer fixes for Bioshock, Left 4 Dead, and Steam...
And for those not interested in either WINE nor Cedega, Nexuiz 2.5 has been released today and a new Sauerbraten release is coming this month.
Wow, Cedega looks quite promising to me.
Is anyone actually buying this stuff ? If I'm out there for proprietary code to run my games, I prefer running XP ... Less troubles, more fun
And more DRM, virii, etc... Well, if you're into technomasochism, I suppose you could call that stuff "fun".
Some of us don't like MS or Windows and try avoiding it's use for anything. I have to because my day-job makes me from time to time (I'm one of their Linux subject matter experts...but they use BOTH OSes...) and because I have to do occasional comparisons when I'm porting titles from Windows over to Linux.
I don't think hardcore gamers are the primary target for Linux, of course you can play serveral games with wine/cedega or even native, but most of the time (if not already opensource) long after a Win or console release. Playing DX titles is always slower than using the native code, OpenGL games run usully pretty fast, but then it is more likely that there already exists a native variant. So if you want to play current games then you need at least dual boot or a gaming console.
Till their "certification" actually means it works well not just "We sort of managed to start it, ergo its playable." Cedega will be a waste of money. (even then I wouldn't pay to use it the only thing it has over wine is supporting some DRM which I like even less then windows only programs.)
Thats simply not true.
The certified games run really well in cedega.
If you really ever tried a certified game (and i doubt you did) you also could have called support in case of problems.
But if am wrong and you tried one, which one was it and which probs did you have ?

Cindy M.A Must For Human Hair WigsI have been using these steam curlers for many years on my human hair wigs.Reply to this post
I extend the life of my wigs by avoiding the damage caused by blowdryers and curling irons. Using the steam curlers on dry or air dried hair creates long lasting gorgeous curls and doesn't harm human hair wigs.
These are great for folks with no-patience for regular curlers or for not getting it right the first time cause they take very little time to use.
One side note: If you forget the salt, it doesn't work.Jun 22, 2012Link to this post -
LauriGlen Haven, WIReplacement Foams?I love my old traveler(red one that uses salt) Caruso. Are replacement foams available anywhere? My plastic curlers are still good, but the foams have deteriorated over the years. I noticed in the original flyer that came with the kit that they were, but never seen them now that I want them. Don't really want to purchase the whole curlers just to get the foams.Reply to this postMay 8, 2012Link to this post
EliAbout Replacement FoamsSomebody shared somewhere else that she bought regular foam rollers and was able to replace the foam with the foam of these rollers. Sounds like a great idea to me! I also have all the rollers from my original set , which I still love after so many, many years.Sep 15, 2012Link to this post
JoanGeartest Thing Since Running Wateri have used this hair curler for over 20 years and wouldn't use anything else. Easy on the hair and easy on the time. I have longer hair and is a wonderful.Reply to this postDec 29, 2011Link to this post

Dolly MendesSan Antonio,TexasThey both worked on my hair, the problem I have had, and I guess many others, is the new steamers do not last no matter what I do, vinegar to clean,distilled water, regular tap water,the new ones just wont last more than a few months, so like the other review I just keep buying them.Feb 25, 2010Link to this post
HollyWhich Caruso Holds Up And Which Does Not?It seems like a lot of these reviews dont even refer to the product on this page, the SalonPro 30 Molecular Steam Hairsetter. Many people refer to old Caruso sets they had several years ago. Im concerned about this because the reviews for one of the other Caruso sets on Folica were not good; most people said they broke down quickly. I noticed a few people said that about this product, too. So which Caruso set is the "good" one? Which one does not break down quickly? If you own a SalonPro 30 Molecular Steam, please share how long you have had it, and if youve had any problems. Thanks!Reply to this postJan 19, 2010Link to this post
Elle LakeWhich Caruso Holds Up And Which Does Not?I have had my SalonPro30 for almost a year,today I can hardly get it to put out any steam and I can not find any info. as to cleaning instructions or if it is bitting the dust.

Duck Butter is the gooey substance that is formed next to the ball sack and in the butt crack. This is formed by lack of hygiene, long days of arduous sweaty work, and native americans. Duck Butter is made up of oil, sweat, dirt, and sometimes cum stains. This mixture of components under the proper temperature, humidity, and friction, forms a buttery substance that leaves stringers when your balls are seperated from the inner thigh, or when you spread your butt cheeks. Colors can vary from brown, yellow, white, to an occasional green. The consistancy is that of mucas.

Winless no more, Pistons beat 76ers 94-76
Pistons earn 1st win by topping 76ers in Philadelphia
Published On: Nov 14 2012 10:30:33 PM EST
Greg Monroe had 19 points, 18 rebounds and six assists to help the Detroit Pistons beat the Philadelphia 76ers 94-76 on Wednesday night for their first win of the season.
Kyle Singler scored 16 points, and Tayshaun Prince and Brandon Knight each scored 15 points for a Detroit (1-8) team off to its worst start in franchise history. Playing their seventh road game out of nine games this season, the Pistons controlled the lethargic Sixers from the opening tip.
Four Pistons starters scored in double digits and forward Jason Maxiell had eight points and 12 rebounds.
The Sixers easily played their worst game of the season, making only 25 of 84 shots, for 30 percent. Lavoy Allen led them with 14 points.

Darkest of Days
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.4
Timedemo or Level Used: Built-in Test
Developer Homepage: http://www.darkestofdays.com/index.php
Product Homepage: http://www.darkestofdays.com/index.php
Darkest of Days takes the player through time into historic battles in an effort to save key individuals from certain death. The battles range from Custer's Last Stand at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876 to fighting in Pompeii as ash and fire rain down from an erupting Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Other locations include the battles of Antietam and Tannenberg, and a German World War II P.O.W. camp. There are different missions in every time period and the game takes about 4 hours to complete.
The game features over twenty weapons, both from the original time period as well as those brought back from the future. In addition, there are artillery weapons from different time periods to assist in battle.
Note: With the PhysX set to Medium or High Darkest of Days take advantage of the NVIDIA PhysX abilities. For that reason we will test ATI cards at the Low preset, NVIDIA based cards though will be tested at Low and High.
Darkest of Days hates Crossfire and for that reason we see the HD 5970 falls behind the pack. As for the HD 5870 and Eyefinity6 card, both models are close to that 60 FPS mark with the Eyefinity6 able to pull out a 1 FPS win for the first time.

When you make as many millions as Marg Helgenberger did during her 12 seasons on CSI, you say yes to projects because they seem fun. So in April, this longtime fan of RuPaul's Drag Race will be a judge on an episode of the Logo hit (Season 5 premieres on January 28). In one competition, the drag queens must make gowns out of candy, a real challenge when you consider I witnessed a licorice dress melt under the hot stage lights. Other judges and special guests this season include Camille Grammer, Juliette Lewis, Kristen Johnston, Paulina Porizkova, Chaz Bono, La Toya Jackson, Celebrity Apprentice's Aubrey O'Day, Knots Landing vet Joan Van Ark, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Wilmer Valderrama and attorney Gloria Allred.
So where does Helgenberger go from here? She's turned down several recurring roles since leaving CSI because, she says, "I was on one of the best procedurals, so the bar was raised pretty high." And while she's hesitant to reprise her role as Catherine to solve a routine crime, the actress says that if the writers came up with something special, she'd welcome a call. "Transferring to the FBI was a big thing for Catherine, so the return would have to be worthy," she adds, suggesting "some international threat that opens Las Vegas up to the world."

�A Conservative,�� William F. Buckley said, �is a fellow who is standing athwart history yelling 'Stop!'�
That was the main impulse behind the efforts in 11 states to amend their constitutions to ban same-sex marriage in 2004. Gay weddings had begun in Massachusetts in May, and conservative voters were determined to stop them in their tracks.
But it wasn�t the only impulse behind getting gay marriage on the ballots. Karl Rove, the �architect� of George W. Bush�s re-election campaign, figured gay marriage would bring evangelicals to the polls. Nowhere was this as important as Ohio, the most important swing state that year. And it worked. The anti-gay marriage initiative passed by over a million votes.� Bush won Ohio by 118,775 votes. If it had gone the other way, John Kerry would have been president.
Nine years later, Rove and his establishment Republican buddies are trying to dig out of the hole they dug with their cynical culture war ploys. He wants the GOP to cozy up to Latinos, gays and young people, but the Palin wing refuses to go along. Couldn�t happen to a nicer guy.
This month Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, came out in favor of same-sex marriage after being talked into it by his gay son. He�s not the only Ohioan who has changed his mind. As of a poll released this week, Buckeye State voters favor repealing the anti-gay marriage amendment 54 to 40 percent.
History, it turns out, doesn�t stop on the conservatives� command. Politics can't stop a changing culture.
Other thoughts on gay marriage in my column today.

Maybe this... not sure what you are wanting:Code:ls | xargs file
hey everyone howz it oging? am a complete noooooooooob to shell programming. i saw a few codes and applications and i already feel like running away lol i like my programming but with like java, vb, vb.net and even C++ but this hear looks all too new for me. so i decided i'd take it step by step like in java, the first prg they teach u is how to print HELLO WORLD so i do the same in bash. ok so here's my prb. say am in a directory and i want to find out how man files are jpegs and exe. like the result would b cout<<u have 10 jpegs and 5 exe
how do i get the name of a file and how do i check if it's an exe or not? a jpeg or not?
can someone just write a loop for this? a few lines checking if files are jpeg or not. no it's not an assignment although if u find it somewhere plz tell me lol cuz i'd rather read about it then ask
anything u can offer be it a complete answer or link or anything would b most appreciated. thnx and good day ^_^
ps. i think i put this in the wrong place but i wasnt so sure. sorry. didnt know if it were here or in general linux and id idnt want to double post on my first day lol
Maybe this... not sure what you are wanting:Code:ls | xargs file
well i'll check when i get back home. hey do u go online often? firstname.lastname@example.com firstname.lastname@example.com
mayb we can chat then and talk about this. am out right helping some friends with work. thnx for the reply. hope i get to talk to ya online soon.
Better yet just use file without ls. Go to any directory you are interested in and type:Add a | grep -v directory to the end to only get a list of files (instead of files and directories). I'm online, but the easiest way to communicate is right here through these forums since I never know when I'll be on. Responding to posts is easy and can happen at any time (especially since I'm at work most of the day).Code:file *
ok thnx a lot for ur help. as soon as iget back home i'll get on and see if u'r there. thnx again i look fwd to this.

80's Colnago projectRe: 80's Colnago projectstack height ok on that A9? i remember something about stack height..
beautiful headsets, aren't they!
Re: 80's Colnago projectThe headset that was on there (old school big ball dura ace) had a hefty stack height so there's plenty of room to play with on the fork. Will be nice to have the Colnago back in one piece and on it's wheels!
Re: 80's Colnago projectGot the headset - it's ridiculously light for a threaded headset. Assembly soon!
Re: 80's Colnago projectYour frame colours were very similar to my Colnago. After nearly 2 years of having the frame on display in my lounge, I have taken to a bike painter in Brissie, I think the results are fantastic.
Photos don't do it justice, I had a light metal flake put in the paint which is only visible in the sunlight. Regarding headsets, I never noticed the Stronglight in my research, I have had a Chris King headset on order now for nearly four weeks. It is getting custom made anodised in the Italian flag colours. What wheel set are you running? I love the wheel set I found. I bought Campag Shamal Titanium, they are a deep V with minimal spokes. I was told they would take 9-11 speed cassettes but after buying an Athena 11 speed, found out they won't fit. I ended up buying a Veloce 10 speed, it is identical to Athena just less one gear, I bought it as it is the polished alloy finish. In hindsight I should have purchased NOS Record 10 speed components. Attached is a link to some photos of my Colnago build to date: http://i453.photobucket.com/albums/qq25 ... 011005.jpg
Re: 80's Colnago projectThat's an awesome build there dude. Thanks for sharing! I'm saving up for Veloce 10 speed also.. it looks like a great groupset, how do you find it?
I'm running Campagnolo Khamsin rims with the G3 spoke pattern. They're a basic clincher at just under 1800 grams. And the loudest freewheel I've ever heard
Re: 80's Colnago projectCan I hijack my own thread for a minute and plug my contribution to the Ride to Conquer Cancer?
I am riding next years event in honour of my father who lost his battle with lymphoma 7 weeks ago. He was a great dad, a gifted educator, doting grandfather and just an all round nice guy in the prime of his life. Life's just not fair sometimes. I've been totally gutted by his death but I'm determined to make some positive of this situation, and having something to train/focus towards is sure to help me come to terms with this. My fiance, uncle and brother are are also joining me on the ride (thanks guys!). Now without getting too mushy there's a lot of guys on the forum here who have been a great help to me whilst I've learnt about bikes, and especially when I started my first restoration (Hol's yellow bike) and whilst I've not met most of you, I genuinely appreciate your help. If any of you could make a small donation in his honour it would be GREATLY appreciated by myself, and my family. The money goes to the WA Institute of Medical Research, widely regarded as being one of Australia's leading researchers on cancer and other malignant diseases. The team page where you can donate is located here : http://pr12.conquercancer.org.au/site/T ... am_id=4375 Kind regards, Ben PS : I'll be building a new bike for Holly to ride in the event shortly so stay tuned for that .. and finally finishing the Colnago for myself to ride in the event too!
Re: 80's Colnago projectThe A9 headset from Stronglight went on perfectly - perfect stack height, no spacers required. It's a beautiful unit and so light. Highly recommended.
Pics soon.
Re: 80's Colnago project6.7kg so far (wheels, frame, seatpost, seat, tyres, tubes, bars, stem, headset) on the bathroom scales. Just cables, bar tape and groupset to go..
Re: 80's Colnago projectJust bought my groupset. 2011 Campagnolo Veloce silver 10 speed .. with compact cranks and a 12-25 cassette. I'm not a hardcore racer, so I figured compacts would be a pretty versatile choice and I have some decent hills in my area. Hopefully I've picked the right choice in gearing. Come on Ribble, allez allez!
Re: 80's Colnago projectNice! Can't wait to see it finished.
Re: the compact crank, I think you've made the right choice.
Re: 80's Colnago projectThanks, it's certainly a daunting choice.. but I want to do some big miles/rides on this bike and I'm not terribly interested in competition so it seemed like the best choice. If I was ever to hope for a faster gear I could always convert to a standard, or change to an 11--25, but going the other way with a standard would mean a big cassette and a mid cage derailleur, so this seemed like the more realistic choice!
Re: 80's Colnago projectIt's here!!
Build shall begin tomorrow morning .. so excited!
Re: 80's Colnago projectThe build had been going smoothly until I got to putting the bottom bracket in. Unfortunately Ribble sent me two right hand bearing cups so I had to send them back, another 2 weeks until I can finish the build!
At least they paid the postage.
Re: 80's Colnago projectahh that sux! really looking forward to this one!
Re: 80's Colnago projectyou mean you didn't specify you needed one for opposing sides, like ................ you won't order like that again will you? it's all well and good pointing the finger at Winggle

Re: 80's Colnago project
Ummm, being an Ital bike, wouldn't it have an Ital BB threading? Y'know, both sides are standard thread? No gas threads for the Italians... ...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
London Boy 29/12/2011
Re: 80's Colnago projectYeah italian bb for sure.
So both threads are the same way.
Re: 80's Colnago projectIt's Italian thread.. and of course I ordered Italian thread, so with Italian thread bottom bracket you get one (right hand) cup that has no bearing supplied with it as it's pressed onto the crankset already, the other left bearing has a separate bearing, which of course I didn't get. Understand now?

London Boy 29/12/2011
Re: 80's Colnago projectAll good Bill.. they've been most apologetic and very proactive about righting the problem, and paid the return postage for the correct parts. A small delay in a very long build thus far won't hurt me. I'd still recommend RIbble. They received the incorrect parts today and sent the new ones .. should be here next week! All that's left to do is pop the cups in and install the crankset and chain, tune the derailleurs and it's ready to roll.
Here's a pic :
Re: 80's Colnago projectCor, will yer getta look at that beauty, they don't make 'em like that anymore, check out those classic lines etc etc.

Re: 80's Colnago projectThanks Bill. I'm pretty happy with it for now. The only thing I'm not happy about is that the chrome on the chain stays and lugs has been painted over which is a bummer. I will get it re painted once I've got some miles on it! I also think I need a shorter stem, I have a 120mm Cinelli 1A on there at the moment .. does anyone have a 90 or 100mm Cinelli 1A or 1R or something similiar for sale?
Re: 80's Colnago projectWhich town are you located in? Could organise a steel framed Colnago ride if you are in Brissie.

It's dangerous to go alone...take this[Want to see what I thought of Wind Waker HD and A Link Between Worlds 3DS? Read past my 2011 quest to beat every core Zelda game ever made.] Halfway through beating Ocarina of Time 3D, I had a pretty neat thought: I decided that in honor of Zelda's 25th anniversary, it would be fun to play through every mainstead Zelda game, including the upcoming Skyward Sword, and beat all of them before the year's end. Here we are a mere day before the release of Skyward Sword, and my journey nears its final leg. Now is the perfect time to look back on the whole thing, warts and all. Why Zelda? There are so many hidden bomb rooms that don't have telltale cracks, and tons of absolutely insane secret areas, that it would take a guide to complete everything. Either way, the first game laid the groundwork for future Zelda titles, and helped pave the way for Action RPGs all around. Zelda II is also notoriously hard, but not nearly as hard as the first game in my opinion - I mean, at least there's some clear idea of where to go. While I wouldn't necessarily recommend dropping the $5 on the first Zelda, depending on your tastes, I heartily recommend picking this one up on the Virtual Console - it's one of my favorite Zelda games that I both enjoyed at release, and years afterward. The game is an absolute classic, and the art style still holds up to this day. One of the best things about the game is the lack of pageantry in the beginning. There's no lengthy boring cutscene like future Zelda games - you just press start, jump in, and your epic quest to rescue Zelda immediately begins. Out of all the Zelda games, I'd say Link to the Past is probably the most polished. Some time later, Nintendo released DX for the Gameboy Color (and eventually 3DS), which was basically the definitive version that added colors, and a new color-based dungeon. I played that version for this quest, and it was nice to rediscover the magic all over again. Many people knock on Ocarina for being dated - I implore those folks to check out the 3Ds remake, as it smooths out some of those nasty 64 graphical limitations, and offers a better overall gameplay experience. Make no mistake - Ocarina of Time still holds up. I'm currently playing through the game now, and all it makes me want to do is play Ocarina of Time over again. Thankfully, Majora's Mask is still a really fun, really solid game in it's own right. Termina didn't really feel like one cohesive world so much as a bunch of different planets. Some people say that's good -- but to me, it didn't feel as magical. I could go on and on about Majora's Mask, but I think I'll leave it at this: although I had issues with it, this game has character in spades, and I wouldn't even put it close to the bottom of the Zelda pile. These are probably the only Zelda games in the entire series I literally have nothing to say about - I played them, I barely remember them, and they're on my list. The game link system seemed pretty gimmicky at the time, but years later, it's actually a pretty fun way to experience both titles. As for which one is better, I'd probably say "Seasons" - the time mechanic in "Ages" has been done in just about every Zelda game, so it was fun to see something refreshing. Thankfully, Nintendo is planning on releasing Four Swords for the 3DS and DSi platforms in September - I may beat them to the punch, however, by playing it with a friend by way of a Gameboy Advance link cable. Four Swords might seem bite sized, but it's easily in my top five Zelda list. In order to play it, I bought two copies of A Link to the Past GBA, and an official Nintendo GBA Link Cable (a universal one will not work): however, Nintendo is releasing it in September 2011 on DSiware, for the DSi and 3DS handhelds. Although I wasn't a huge fan of Wind Waker at release, as time went on, I grew to appreciate the game more and more, and now it's near the top of my list. I barely remember beating this one (my friend beat it, mostly), so I'm looking forward to my full completion run this year. In terms of the gameplay, the swordplay is probably the best in the series, and the rush you get from exploring the ocean depths is second to one. Beyond the childish looking veneer, Wind Waker is full of character, and one of the best Zelda games to date. Oddly enough, if you wanted to play multiplayer, each gamer had to have their own GBA, and system link cable. Of course, I was intrepid enough to engage in this particular activity a few times, but I never ended up beating the game. I didn't feel too bad after finding out it was the least successful Zelda game of all time, but I just picked this up for Gamecube recently via physical copy, and I plan on beating it in 2011. Additionally, the game is incredibly long for a level based, non-open world Zelda title (about fifteen or more hours) and at times, it feels a bit boring. Despite these shortcomings, the Tower Of Winds is one of my favorite dungeons of all time, and there are easily a ton of good things about Adventures - even if it overstays it's welcome a bit. In fact, I never fully experienced it at release, making it one of the few Zeldas I haven't beaten yet. Honestly, I have no idea why I haven't truly sat down and experienced this gem, but let's just say I'm excited to pop this one in my GBA. Minish Cap however, at times, felt like a completely different series - which is easily a good thing. Nintendo and Capcom did a good job mixing up the swordplay and nearly all of the items are completely new to the series. Under the veneer of motion controls, which were nothing more than waving your wand back and forth every...single...time you wanted to attack, the game was drab, and nothing was memorable. While I can pretty much recall the floor plans of each Temple after my first completion of other games, I am completely drawing a blank as to what Twilight Princess's dungeons even were. I'm very reluctant to beat this one in my 2011 quest, but considering it is a main series Zelda game, I think I'll do this one last. For instance, I forgot how amazing a few of the dungeons are: the Arbiter's Grounds is one of my favorite dungeons of all time; The Stallord boss fight is one of the best in the series (if not the best), and the shoutout to Ocarina of Time's the Forest Temple is gold. Additionally, the Temple of Time is really, really fun (and introduced the "companion cube" concept approximately a year before Portal!). As previously stated, I don't think Twilight Princess is a terrible game: I just think that overall, it's a sub-par Zelda title. Like pretty much all of the other titles, I'm looking forward to fishing this one out of the game pile and beating it in 2011. It's not one of my favorites, but it's not bad by any means. Having to re-do the main dungeon multiple times also grinds on you after a while, which leads to tons of breaks in-between play sessions; a stark contrast to pretty much every other Zelda game, which makes you yearn for more every single time you get a new item, or complete a new dungeon. Stylus support also feels completely pointless at times, and I would have loved an alternate control scheme. All in all Phantom Hourglass isn't a poor game, but I'm in no hurry to play it again compared to most of the series, mostly due to the "touch" nature of the game. I personally thought the only bad part of Spirit Tracks were the train sections, but unfortunately, there are a lot of those! As a result, I am treating it as a separate release, and plan on tackling the solo adventure in an effort to complete the new levels. Simply put, Four Swords Anniversary is one of the best Zelda games in the entire series - it takes an already incredible game and adds a much needed single player element, as well as a ton of extra content. After playing this remade masterpiece, I'd easily place it in my top five Zelda games of all time.
Motion Control also doesn't seem like a gimmick this time around, forcing you to actually think before you strike with motion plus, as opposed to waving your wand around like an idiot in Twilight Princess. The more and more I see of Skyward Sword, the more I think it will be the best title of 2011. Considering it was the catalyst for this entire adventure, it's pretty obvious that I can't wait! EXTENDED THOUGHTS: Overall I thought it was a decent, flawed game. In my mind, I had it at least making it into my top five of Zelda list based on what I had seen, but after completion, I'm sure that it doesn't come close. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD - Wii U [owned], Wii U eShop [owned] - (Completed in September 2013) As soon as I booted up Wind Waker HD, I knew I was in for a treat. There's something about the game's locales that really jump out at me, and seeing Outset island in glorious HD was a thing of beauty. For those of you who were wondering -- yes, Wind Waker still holds up, which is a testament to the brilliant design of the original. But even though it is nearly the exact same game you know and love, it comes with a few welcome mechanical enhancements. For those of you who found slowly sailing across the world for objectives boring -- there's the Swift Sail item that makes traveling faster. If you found the Triforce collection quest to be too tedious (I happen to be one of those people), it's been shortened and streamlined. GamePad support is also something I now can't live without, as you can not only instantly re-assign items during dungeons (which you'll need to do on more than one occasion) just like Ocarina of Time 3D, but you can also consult the GamePad as a map when sailing. Unlike the Wii Zelda games where I felt like it was a regression due to the unnecessary waggle, Wind Waker HD actually manages to transcend the original due to the core mechanics of the Wii U. And you know the best part? The GamePad functionality is completely optional, and you can just cruise along with a Pro Controller without having to bother with the pad at all. This is a huge deal for me given the fact that so many recent Zelda games have had forced control schemes without options. If you haven't played Wind Waker, I'd definitely recommend picking it up on Wii U, as it's one of the greatest action-adventure games of all time. It manages to capture that feeling of pure adventure that the Zelda series is known for, while maintaining relevance in an HD era with its gorgeous, timeless art style. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds - 3DS, 3DS eShop [owned] - (Completed in November 2013) A Link Between Worlds is a bit of a mixed bag. On one hand, it has a lot of [positive] streamlining that really puts the emphasis on adventuring, and having fun. On the other, it's a very dry, unimaginative quest that doesn't really have a compelling world or cast of characters. Throughout most of the game, I felt like I was just going through the motions. The magic really wasn't there, even if it was technically sound, and played great. I have to give a special shoutout to the ice dungeon, as it presented a perspective never before seen in the Zelda series, period. Set to the tune of a giant skyscraper-like layout, you're constantly falling down and making pinpoint drops, almost like it was a platformer without a jump button. The 3D effect only makes this dungeon (and the entire game, really) sing even more. But the rest of the game really didn't live up to that high standard. If you're really itching for a Zelda game though, A Link Between Worlds isn't bad by any means. It should deliver the basic experience to fans, and if you've never played a Zelda before, this is a great start due to the fact that it's so straightforward and easy to play. Although I hope a lot of the concepts are used in future iterations, I similarly hope a bit more heart and personality is injected as well. So what's your favorite Zelda? What's your least favorite?
