Middle of Reds' order could mean trouble for Mets
Cincinnati's 4-5-6 hitters look to back Leake in start vs. Niese
Reds first baseman Joey Votto opened his team's three-game series against the Mets on Monday as the reigning National League Player of the Week.
Although running into an All-Star who is fresh off leading the Majors with a .583 batting average last week should be a concern for the Mets as they get ready for the second game of the three-game set on Tuesday, the biggest problem for them might be that Votto has plenty of help.
After Votto's fifth multihit performance in the last seven games on Monday, his hitting streak sits at nine games. Not to be outdone, right fielder Jay Bruce carries a season-high 11-game streak into Tuesday's game, and second baseman Brandon Phillips has a hit in each of his last eight games.
On the Reds' current road trip, which began last Tuesday in Miami, the starting 3-4-5 hitters have combined for six home runs, 21 RBIs and 36 hits.
Bruce connected on his fifth home run of the month on Monday after hitting just one in April; manager Dusty Baker said he's been a key reason the Reds have won eight of their last 10.
"He's swinging that bat well," Baker said. "We welcome it big time. We've been sort of waiting on it, and I just hope this stays and sustains itself."
Mets left-hander Jonathon Niese, who takes on the Reds' Mike Leake, will be tasked with slowing Cincinnati and the streaking heart of its order. Fortunately for him, he appeared to recover from the worst two outings of his career in his most recent start.
Niese allowed a combined 15 runs and 15 hits in starts against the Braves and Pirates earlier this month, and did not make it out of the fifth inning in either appearance. He rebounded against the Cardinals on Thursday, though, giving up two runs on six hits in 7 1/3 innings on the way to his third win of the season.
After his tough two-game stretch, Niese said that he wasn't "deceiving" hitters, because his arm angle had dropped, and he practiced his windup in front of a mirror to fix his problem. The practice seems to have worked, and Niese hopes to keep his momentum going against the Reds.
"I think we're all trying to pitch well and to get into that groove that way," Niese said.
Reds: Cozart still dealing with sickness
Shortstop Zack Cozart started to feel sick on the team bus on Saturday night, and he missed his second straight game on Monday while battling a mysterious stomach bug.
"The doc couldn't say if it was food poisoning or just a little bug. It was awful," Cozart said. "On Saturday night it was bad. I'm off today to get fluids in me as much as possible. I'm sure I'm still dehydrated, even after I drank a lot of water yesterday."
Cozart was quarantined in the trainer's room during Sunday's game but was back with his teammates on Monday. Neither he nor manager Dusty Baker said whether he'll be back in the lineup on Tuesday.
In 39 games, Cozart is batting .206 with five home runs and 20 RBIs.
• As Johnny Cueto's return approached, Leake and Tony Cingrani battled for the chance to remain in the rotation. When Cingrani was optioned to Triple-A Louisville last week, Leake's job was safe.
Leake is 3-2 with a 3.72 ERA in eight starts. The 25-year-old right-hander delivered his second shutout performance of 2013 last Wednesday, scattering nine hits across 6 2/3 innings in a 4-0 win over the Marlins.
Mets: For Collins, Murphy is No. 1
On Monday, for the second straight game, manager Terry Collins opted to bat second baseman Daniel Murphy in the leadoff spot.
Although Murphy went 0-for-4 in the series opener against the Reds, he did draw a walk, and he solidified himself as the leadoff hitter for at least the near future after connecting on a go-ahead home run in the eighth inning on Sunday.
Murphy enters Tuesday batting .293 with four homers and 19 RBIs, and Collins hopes the change can improve production at the top of his order.
"I think Dan Murphy's a good hitter," Collins said. "If you hit him fifth, he's still going to be a good hitter and probably drive some runs in for you. But I sure like the fact that he gets on base the way he does with David [Wright] coming up. David's shown with runners in scoring position, he'll drive them in."
Worth noting
• Reds center fielder Shin-Soo Choo will have the day off on Tuesday with the lefty Niese on the mound.
• After Monday's loss, the Mets are in danger of dropping their third straight home series vs. the Reds.

Duo looking for turnaround in Arizona
Mets' Gee, D-backs' McCarthy have uncharacteristically struggled so far
If nothing else, the Mets and D-backs expected consistency this season out of starting pitchers Dillon Gee and Brandon McCarthy. Though both right-handers had spent parts of previous years battling health issues, they had also established themselves as two of the game's more reliable arms when healthy. Both were quite successful throughout Spring Training.
Yet so far this season, both Gee and McCarthy have been healthy and notably out of whack. They will each look to change their fortunes in Wednesday's 12:40 p.m. MST (3:40 ET) series finale between the Mets and D-backs at Chase Field, with the Mets looking for a sweep.
For Gee, the Mets' Opening Day starter, home runs have been the issue. Unable to paint the corners of the strike zone as he normally would, Gee enters Wednesday's start with five long balls in 19 2/3 innings -- one of the leading culprits in what has been a rotation-wide epidemic for the Mets.
"That's very uncharacteristic," Mets manager Terry Collins said.
For McCarthy, the issue has been similar. The nine-year veteran's usual superlative control has been there, but a few too many bad pitches have resulted in an identical stat line -- five home runs in 19 2/3 innings.
"I really feel like I haven't thrown terribly this season -- it's just been a few pitches here and there that have gone wrong, and they've happened to really hurt me," McCarthy said. "Whether it's a combination of bad luck or too many bad pitches, it's getting old."
Mets: Lagares heads to disabled list; Granderson OK
The Mets placed outfielder Juan Lagares on the disabled list Tuesday with a strained right hamstring, recalling Kirk Nieuwenhuis from Triple-A Las Vegas to replace him. Lagares had been the Mets' best overall player through their first 13 games, batting .314 with an .816 OPS while playing superlative center-field defense.
Still, things could have been worse for the Mets, who avoided having to place Curtis Granderson on the DL as well. Granderson bruised his left forearm, ribcage and knee crashing against the wall in an attempt to catch Miguel Montero's RBI double Monday, but X-rays on all three spots were negative. After sitting out Tuesday's game, Granderson could return as soon as Wednesday.
The Mets will receive another boost Friday, when fellow outfielder Chris Young returns from the disabled list. In the interim, Eric Young will start in left field, with Nieuwenhuis in center and Andrew Brown in right. The Mets do not want to disrupt Lucas Duda by moving him from his natural position of first base back to the outfield, where he struggled defensively in previous seasons.
D-backs: Playing mind games
With the D-backs off to a slow start, manager Kirk Gibson has cautioned his team against putting too much pressure on themselves to try and turn things around in one fell swoop.
"You need to stay with the process and not be so affected by the result," Gibson said.
For players, who have a tremendous amount of pride, that is not an easy task.
"You have to try and trick your mind so you can take that pressure off of you," Gibson said.
Worth noting
• In addition to wearing a No. 42 jersey Tuesday along with every other player in Major League Baseball, Granderson sported a pair of custom-made "Thank You Jackie" cleats. He plans to auction the cleats off at a later date, with proceeds going to the Jackie Robinson Foundation.
• With a single in the first inning Tuesday, Mets third baseman David Wright extended his hitting streak to seven consecutive games. Wright also boasts seven home runs in 30 career games at Chase Field.
• D-backs reliever Oliver Perez struck out four batters in two innings Tuesday, his highest career strikeout total as a reliever. Perez owns a 6.14 ERA in eight appearances.

Wednesday, October 16, 2013
The candidates running for the mayor's seat and three expiring city council positions in Georgetown got together to answer questions about issues facing the city Monday night.
The forum, sponsored by the Georgetown County Chamber of Commerce and the Georgetown Business Association, was free of heated exchanges which allowed the issues to be the main focus as voters decide who to elect on Nov. 5.
The debate was held in two parts. First Mayor Jack Scoville, a Democrat, and his Republican challenger – Richard Powers – took the stage to answer eight main questions prepared by Chamber and GBA members. Then the city council candidates answered the same questions.
The council candidates are Democrat incumbents Brendon Barber, Jeanette Ard and newcomer Doris Simmons. The Republicans are incumbent Paige Sawyer and newcomers Carol Jayroe and Ed Kimbrough.
Powers, the owner of two boat dealerships, said he wants to work to make Georgetown a place his children can return to after graduating from college.
"If they graduated today, there are no jobs for them to come home to. We have to look for ways to bring jobs here and that takes a team of people. True leadership knows that," Powers said.
Scoville said because of the recent Front Street fire, there will be a lot of work for council in the upcoming months.
"You cannot have a complete novice running this city for the next four years. This fire presents a great challenge and opportunity," Scoville said.
Making City Hall more user friendly was something both Powers and Kimbrough said they will strive to make happen if elected.
"We have to put more civility in City Hall. It doesn't matter who you are, everybody's issue is important," said Powers. "If we are not business friendly people will not come here. If they see infighting, they will not come."
Kimbrough said "civility in government is imperative. I hope tonight is the beginning of a unified group for change and progress."
Scoville said City Hall was not business friendly when he was elected mayor but he has worked to make things better.
One of the questions was whether the candidates would support allowing alcoholic beverages on the Harborwalk in the same manner they are allowed on the Marshwalk in Murrells Inlet.
Every candidate said they have no problem with allowing drinks on the boardwalk but, they added, there need to be some stipulations.
"Alcohol can be a problem for some people and can lead to bad things. But I believe people should have a choice. I don't want to see beer cans walking down the street but having a beer cup, I am OK with it," Powers said.
Scoville said restaurants are already allowed to serve alcohol at the tables on the sidewalks outside their businesses. He said he supports people having drinks on the boardwalk "as long as they behave themselves."
Ard added there would need to be police presence to keep people from destroying property.
Kimbrough said a law change "is way past due" because it would make it easier for patrons to get from one restaurant and bar to the other.
Sawyer said he is OK with the idea as long as "the wishes and concerns" of the residents who live in the apartments are taken into consideration.
The candidates were asked to explain how they plan to attract new businesses to Georgetown.
Scoville said that was one of the main reasons he pushed for the recent hiring of Tee Miller as the city's Economic Development Director. He said Miller talks with business owners and tries to convince them to locate in Georgetown.
He also said the city continues to work with Richmond Realty to try to annex the wooded property next to Tractor Supply. He said that could be the future site of a Lowe's or Home Depot.
Powers said the city needs to change its mentality if it wants to be a business attraction. He said city leaders need to go to business shows and offer things to bring them in. He said there are a lot of retired CEOs in the area that could offer great advice and expertise.
Kimbrough said not only does the city need to go after new businesses but programs need to be put in place to help existing businesses expand.
Simmons said, if elected, she plans to talk with business owners and employees to get ideas about how to improve the commercial environment. She said council needs to find out why so many stores are vacant.
Sawyer said Georgetown County is well known for its union labor.
"We have to rid ourselves of the union labor title so more people see us as business friendly," Sawyer said.
Barber said "we need to reinvest our energy and interest" into the dredging of the Port of Georgetown.
"There is no reason that could not be a great satellite port," Barber said. "The key point is education. Let's work effectively with our school district so that we can have a workforce that is ready when the businesses do come."
Jayroe said all cities are competing for the same jobs and businesses. She said even though Georgetown "is a $30 million business" there is no marketing in place to attract businesses or tourists."
She said the city needs a marketing budget and a marketing firm to work hand-in-hand with Miller.
Ard said she has worked with a committee that has put together an RFP for marketing the city. She said the city's website will be upgraded because that "is the most useful tool a city can have to bring in people."
One of the questions described the business license in Georgetown as "a progressive tax based on revenue instead of a flat rate." The candidates were asked if they agree with the current setup or if they prefer an alternative.
"It is a tax. It is not a fee. It drives me crazy when they call it that," Powers said. He said the city needs to make it easier to do business suggesting the possibility of a freeze on some of the fees "for a couple of years."
He said maybe business owners could use that money to hire more workers.
Scoville said if the fees were frozen there would need to be a tax increase for residents or more cuts in order to recoup the loss.
He said he would like the county to create a business license program because right now the county has a competitive advantage over the city.
Barber said he has no problem letting experts study the issue to see if there is a viable alternative "so we are not taking a hit in the general fund budget."
Jayroe said the current system punishes people for being successful since the amount charged for the license is based on profits earned.
"It needs to be equitable," she said.
Ard and Kimbrough both said they support a flat business license fee while Simmons said "we all need to get together and talk about the pros and cons and decide what's best for the city."
Sawyer said he supports studying the flat fee but added the city needs to look at all of its non-taxable property such as the hospital, schools, churches, cemeteries and the Sheriff's Office.
Each of the candidates said "no" when asked if the city should provide financial help for the victims of the fire if their insurance does not cover all the costs.
Scoville said the city is working at trying to obtain grants to help with making any changes that are required because of the flood zone laws. He said city funds cannot be used to help rebuild private property.
Powers said if the city were to help with the private property costs it would open Pandora's Box.
"If you help one person you would have to help others," Powers said.
Jayroe said she would not be given public funds to help rebuild if her house burned down.
Ard, whose business and apartment were destroyed by the fire, agreed.
"The city should not build my building back," she said.
There was a lightning round of questions where the candidates were allowed to answer only yes or no.
• All the candidates, except Scoville, answered "yes" when asked if they would consider a budget in the neighborhood of $400,000 for marketing the city.
• Every candidate, except Barber, said they would support a change to non-partisan elections.
• All said they do support an RFP process to solicit bids from private sector companies for electrical and water service and trash collection. "Yes, but see me after the debate," was Barber's response.
• Only Kimbrough and Jayroe said they support making Broad Street the main entrance to the Downtown area and Historic District.

Braves streak into Citi to face struggling Mets
First-place Atlanta carries six-game run into NL East tilt at Citi
Jeremy Hefner's next attempt at his first win of the season does not figure to be any easier than the previous eight starts.
Hefner, 0-5 this year with a 5.00 ERA in nine games (eight starts), will give it another go on Friday against the Braves. It's his first time facing first-place Atlanta this year. The Mets are 0-8 in Hefner's starts this season, and 7-14 in his 21 career starts.
But his New York teammates haven't done Hefner many favors, offering him just 13 runs of support in 45 innings of work.
"You can only control keeping us in games," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "But he's kept us in games. Hey, if the wins don't come, you've just got to keep pitching. You've got to grind it out."
Like his teammate Dillon Gee, who starts on Saturday, Hefner has had issues with location this year.
"They're both command kind of guys," Collins said. "They both have to use all their pitches. For them to be effective, they've got to command all their pitches. That means they can't get away from the fastball. They still have to pitch off their fastball. What happens some of the times is they haven't gotten their breaking stuff in the strike zone.
"When you live and die with your command, if it's not there, you're going to have some problems."
The first pitch Friday is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. ET at Citi Field. Both teams are off Thursday.
The Braves have won six in a row and seven of nine. New York is 3-8 in its last 11 games and just 2-11 at home in its last 13.
It's the second meeting of the year between the two teams, as they split a brief early-May series.
Right-hander Kris Medlen gets the nod for Atlanta on Friday, looking for just his second win of the season despite a sharp 3.02 ERA. He logged his highest pitch count of the year in his last outing, hurling 112 pitches over seven innings in a 3-1 win against the Dodgers.
Braves: Varvaro heading home
Atlanta reliever Anthony Varvaro will likely make his third career appearance at Citi Field this weekend, not far from where he grew up.
"It's always fun going back home for me, but we're going there to take care of business," Varvaro said.
The Staten Island, N.Y., native -- he went to Curtis High School in Staten Island and St. John's University in Queens, not far from Citi Field -- has thrown 3 1/3 innings in his career at Citi Field, surrendering three hits and one run.
"My biggest thing is I like to go back to Staten Island where I live and there's a specific pizzeria I like to go to and I always just get pizza," Varvaro said. "That's my favorite thing to do. Pizza is my favorite food, so that's No. 1 on my list. Everything else, I just like to visit with friends and family that I can quickly see, but I don't want to overload my schedule because I am there to take care of business."
Mets: Offensive troubles
• The Mets have scored three runs or fewer in 12 of their past 16 games.
• Ike Davis snapped a streak of 12 consecutive plate appearances without reaching base when he drew a walk in the second inning Wednesday. He has one hit in his last 38 at-bats.
• Marlon Byrd is hitting .307 (12-for-39) with three home runs this month. He's five hits shy of 1,100 for his career.
Worth noting
• Hefner is 0-1 with a 8.53 ERA (six earned runs in 6 1/3 innings) in his career against the Braves, spanning two appearances (one start). His last start against Atlanta was Sept. 8, when he went 2 2/3 innings and gave up five earned runs on eight hits.
Freddie Freeman is 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBIs against Hefner, and Brian McCann is also 2-for-4 with a double and two RBIs.
• Hefner will be pitching for the first time since his hometown of Moore, Okla., was devastated by a tornado earlier this week.
• The Mets will host Fireworks Night on Friday after the game. The postgame show will feature a soundtrack of artists associated with New York. It will be the first Fireworks Night of the season.

Works better than expected Great for internet surfing, email and youtube watching. Make sure you download an updated browser since the internet explorer was outdated and running slow. Once I downloaded Google Chrome it works fine.

Didn't even last 2 months I was thrilled when we received this computer and immediately set it up. For several weeks the computer worked fine and we enjoyed being able to do normal PC functions including video, web, etc. That was until one day the computer refused to boot. We had the computer just over seven weeks before the system failed. We took it in to get checked on and the hard drive had crashed, loosing all information with the only option being replacing it an all the software we had purchased. Now it is after the 30-day return AND of course we have opened it so that nulls the policy. Needless to say, I will not purchase electronics here again.

Dell GX520 80GB computer The computer will not shut down manually, must pull the power. When attempting to load from disc, I have to open the program on the disc manually and select auto run. The machine is very very noise when loading a program disc. The case shows some very rough handling. You would think these problems would be detected before sold

Great Base Level Product No problems with startup, where this unit was easily "plug & play". Purchased this unit for my mother, who needs some power for pics, emails and Skype, but more for reliability and this unit has proven to meet that need. I would recommend and would purchase again.

good replacement for older desktop Ordered this to replace a 10 yr old Dell desktop that died recently. It performs better than the old one, although it is slower than my new laptop, but I expected that based on the specs. It was not difficult to hook up and so far we are pleased with the performance. We have been using it for 3 weeks and not had any major issues.

My wife wanted a desktop computer and this was an inexpensive solution.

Price was right and needed something quick and inexpensive as temp. fix.
Needed it. Good deal.
seems like a good price for an everyday computer.
The 1 yr warranty offered by the distributor, how do you contact them?
Thank you for your question, rickanna. You would contact Overstock.com at 1-800-843-2446, as we are the distributor. I hope this helps, and thanks for shopping with us.
No audio! No sound coming from back speaker outlet or the front headphone outlet.
Hello rickanna! I sincerely apologize for the trouble you had with the audio on this computer. I do see that it looks like you got this issue resolved. Please let us know if you need additional assistance. Thanks for shopping with us.

Could I replace the graphics card on this computer with a Nvidia graphics card? Would it fry?
CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Ultra GUA400 AMD FX-6100 3.3GHz Gaming Computer comes with the Nvidia graphics card Item #: 14858114. This Dell Small Form Factor computer comes with an Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz processor, 2GB of DDR2 memory, 80GB hard drive, CD-ROM optical drive, integrated Gigabit Ethernet LAN 10/100/1000 and the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit) operating system can be replaced with the Nvidia graphics card.
Will MS Word and Excel or a web browser come with the provided software?
Thank you for your question. While this item does come with Windows 7 Home Premium, unfortunately, it does not come with Microsoft Office; this software would need to be purchased separately.
Nowhere does it say wifi enabled, is it wifi enabled?
The built-in 10/100/1000 network card (NIC) I would have preferred a standalone card which could be swapped out, or a card that could be upgrade in the future via firmware. Preferably Intel, or 3Com. The NIC chip can be disabled via the BIOS. The eight USB version 2.0 ports (six in the back, two in the front) are a welcome addition especially the two in the front which are not hidden behind an annoying hinged door and by using one of the USB ports you can use the Actiontec 802AIN Wireless N USB Network Adapter and have wireless wifi.
What is the hard drive interface SATA or IDE?
This has SATA.
Will I need to buy speakers for this or is it included ?
they are not included, Included items: Computer system, Keyboard, Mouse, Power cord and Windows 7 Home Premium (32-Bits) Installation CD
i do not want to use windows or mac osx i use only linux distrobutions is it possible to purchase one without buying an operating system ?
The operating system has already been added to the computer; we cannot sell you the computer without the operating system.
Second question. This ones tricky: I don't really want to re-install all my programs and files, so if I clone my existing hard drive to the HD that comes with this unit, can I then use the Win7 Installation CD to upgrade from my existing Win2000 operating system?
You cannot upgrade directly from WIN 2000 to Win 7 with the CD that comes with the computer. Win 7 has to be installed from scratch. So that will not work.
The product description lists "CD-ROM", yet a previous question referred to an R/W DVD. Can you clarify what optical drive comes with this unit? Thanks...
This computer comes with a CD-ROM optical drive.
will the cd/dvd read and write
No, it is a CD-ROM drive only.

How to Upgrade Your Desktop Computer Memory
You might not know that you can upgrade the RAM (random access memory) of your desktop computer to boost speed and performance. Your computer uses RAM to shuffle and store temporary information while it makes calculations to run programs. This computer memory is different from your hard drive memory. The important thing to remember is that installing more memory on your desktop computer will give your computer more "room" to maneuver information quickly and efficiently. Don't be intimidated about opening up your desktop computer to install computer memory yourself. By taking proper precautions and following these steps, you'll learn how to upgrade your computer memory properly.
Laptop vs Desktop Computers
Your computer is possibly the most versatile piece of electronics that you own. But with all the options and features available for laptops and desktop computers, you may want to do a little research before you decide on your next computer. The most basic question to ask yourself is probably whether you want a laptop or a desktop computer. There are advantages to both laptops and desktop computers, so which computer you settle on depends on what your needs are.
Replacing Your Desktop with Laptop Computers
Upgrading your old computer brings several advantages, including increased speed and memory. There are other factors to consider, though, like convenience and portability. One of the best upgrades you can make is replacing your old desktop computer with a new laptop. Read on to learn whether the switch to laptop computers makes sense for you.
Why Desktop Computers Can't Be Beat
With so many portable computing devices, it can be easy to forget the advantages of truly powerful electronics like desktop computers. Desktops have distinct advantages over laptops, notebooks and tablets. Here are a few of the strong points for desktop PCs that you might consider when selecting your next computer.
Building a Space for Your Personal Computer
In an organized home or workplace, there's a place for everything. That axiom is especially true for your personal computer. Whether you primarily use a laptop with your wireless network or you work exclusively on your desktop computer, you can organize a space for your personal computer and accessories that will make it easier to use. Here are a few steps for creating an efficient, organized area for your desktop PC and other equipment.
How to Use Multiple Hard Drives
There are distinct advantages to using multiple hard drives on a single computer. More hard drives allow you to store more programs, photos, music and other data. A second external hard drive or a backup internal hard drive can save your data from being lost if your other hard disk fails. Here are some steps for installing multiple hard drives on the same machine.
How to Use a USB Memory Stick
Information is constantly changing, and so is the way you store and manage that information. Your home and work computers allow you to organize and store large picture or sound files, but you may be searching for better ways to make your files portable. A USB flash drive is a fast and quick way to transport your important files, photos and music. These portable memory sticks come in many different sizes, so you can choose a flash drive with enough memory for the files you need to move. Follow these simple steps to learn how to use your USB drive to upload and download files to and from any computer.
How to Install a New Graphics Card on Your Desktop Computer
Installing a new graphics card, also known as a video card, is a great way to boost your desktop computer's speed and processing power when it comes to games and videos. A video card takes over image processing for your CPU, allowing it to focus resources elsewhere. A new graphics card can make your video smoother and your images crisper for games and movies. Follow these steps for installing a new graphics card on your desktop computer.
How to Use a Flatbed Scanner
Scanning at home by using a flatbed scanner is the best way to convert your photographs and other documents into image files that can be sent via email to your friends and family all around the world.

How to Connect a Laptop to a PC Printer

The process is as simple as connecting both devices together using the right cable. By following just a few simple steps, you can have your printer up and running in no time.
How to Buy Motherboards
Putting together a custom PC nearly always begins with looking at motherboards and making sure that they meet the requirements for your new desktop computer. While shopping for motherboards, you'll want to keep in mind the other computer hardware you plan to use and whether or not your chosen motherboard is compatible.
Basic Hardware and Accessories for Gaming Desktops
Gaming PCs are the peak of graphics performance for desktops. In fact, gaming hardware and accessories push the boundaries of computer technology for home use.

5 Expansion Cards to Enhance Your PC
Your desktop computer's motherboard probably has one or more expansion card slots which you can use to add new functions, special connection ports, or powerful graphics capabilities to your computer. These expansion cards will increase the performance of your existing system.
Best Laptop Components for Entertainment
True home entertainment PCs used to be exclusively desktop computers; but with the great advancements in laptop technology, some of the best laptops can offer great multimedia capabilities for both movies and games.

Top 5 Mistakes to Avoid When Shopping for Computers
Shopping for new electronics is always exciting, and a new computer is one of the most useful electronics you can own. But it can be easy to get distracted in the excitement of thinking about how you'll use your new computer. You don't need to be an electrical engineer to feel comfortable making a choice buying a desktop computer or a notebook computer, though. Arm yourself with a little information and you can make a more educated decision. Here are five pitfalls you may want to avoid while shopping for new computers.
How to Install a New Power Supply
Upgrading components on your desktop computer, and doing it yourself, can be very rewarding. If you are upgrading components that use up a lot of power, like a video card, you may need to install a new power supply to handle the load. Most computer power supplies will list its maximum wattage. You may need to calculate your computer's power usage by adding up the maximum power usage of all your components. That number will be your guide when searching for the right computer power supply. Certain computer cases will only accept compatible power supplies. You can determine which type of case you have by examining the motherboard for an information tag. When you're ready to install your computer power supply, use these simple steps to help you along.
Upgrading Your Laptop Computer Components
Computer technology changes quickly, and a great laptop computer may seem out of date after only a few years. Of course, you may be generally happy with your laptop and just want some performance or memory upgrades, or you might be buying a new laptop for yourself and want to hand off your computer to someone else who might find it useful. While laptop parts aren't as easily interchangeable as desktop computer parts, you can still do a few upgrades that will extend the life of your laptop. Check your laptop computer's user manual and look for these upgrade possibilities.
How to Install a Wireless Router
One of the great things about having a laptop with a wireless network card is that you can access wireless networks almost anywhere you go. You probably already use your laptop to access the Internet at work, the library and even the coffee shop. So, why shouldn't you have a wireless network at home? Install a wireless router and use wireless networking to free your laptop or desktop computer from the network cables that tie them down. Follow these steps to learn how to install a wireless router in your home.
Tips on Choosing Laptops for Gaming
When it comes to PC gaming, desktop gaming computers are the workhorses of the industry, but you can have a mobile gaming experience with laptops if they have the right components. Gaming laptops do tend to be larger and heavier than their lightweight notebook counterparts, yet that seems a fair trade-off for their large screens and powerful computer graphics. Here are some tips for choosing gaming laptops that will let you take your games on the go.
Laptop Buying Guide
Today, many laptops are powerful enough to take over most desktop computing tasks, if not replace your desktop altogether. The main advantage of laptop computers is portability. A laptop lets you take your work, study, or entertainment with you anywhere. This laptop buying guide is here to help you learn what features to look for in a laptop computer that fits your needs.

Woah, no benchmarks?
Phoronix: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 AGN
When sending over the Intel Ivy Bridge kit back in April, Intel also included an engineering sample of a PCI Express x1 WiFi adapter that is part of their "Desktop Intel WiFi - 2012" platform. Does this Intel 802.11n WLAN adapter work as well under Linux as their open-source graphics driver?
Woah, no benchmarks?
Traded up the ralink on my lenovo laptop for an Intel Ultimate-N 6300 for about 25 or so, it was the best decision I ever made.
Greatly recommended! Finally stopped hunting for ethernet cables at home.
I've used both wired gigabit Intel cards and wireless Intel adapters and the results have been uniformly excellent. They work at full speed, support all the features you want, and the drivers are 100% open source. I've had less pleasant experiences with some other vendords, particularly with Wifi cards that can be flaky. Even though the Intel cards cost a little more, it is 100% worth it to get them and not have to worry about networking.
@Michael: The model numbers of the adapters that you are referring to, are laptop adapters. The 6205 is the only one mentioned on their website which also has a desktop version.
A couple years ago I struggled with two different wifi cards, wanting to use either one to make a computer (running Ubuntu 10.04) be an access point. The drivers worked fine in the sense of being able to attach to other APs, but I found out there are a lot of wifi drivers which can only do that; they lack some feature (don't remember what it's called) to be APs themselves.
That was a surprise, and one of the sourest (and I don't mean this in the lambic sense) Linux experiences I've had in many years. I ended up buying a separate appliance, practically a whole (if tiny) little computer, dedicated to letting my wifi clients talk to that server. Another minor hop on the network (not that I care much about that), another enclosure, another wall wart power supply, another ethernet cable to contribute to the rats nest, and another ~$150 expenses, all to deal with the shortcoming of some wifi drivers.
Anyone know about this Intel card's drivers? Can it be used to build an AP? If I knew of any specific product that Just Works (completely, not just as a supplicant) I'd toss my AP in a heartbeat.
I rather use wired Ethernet and get gigabit speed.
Also don't have to worry about people cracking the Wi-Fi, unauthorized guest, surveillance / packet sniffing, interference from phones, microwave ovens, etc.
Heard Wi-Fi latency sucks for online gaming.
So does this mean the 5ghz channels actually work on this card under Linux?
Of course. It's Intel.
Seriously, this is really not the only wifi card with working 802.11a on Linux.
My ThinkPad X220 Tablet has this wifi adapter, you can also use the compat wireless driver, which unlocks more features. Packet injection and even a SoftAP is possible, in parallel. (Arch Linux)
Some benchmarks would have been interesting, though.

Live from La Scala: Dream Cast for Verdi�s Requiem
Daniel Barenboim directs a peerless team of soloists, starring Jonas Kaufmann, and the Chorus and Orchestra of the Teatro alla Scala in Verdi�s Messa da Requiem
Audio and video recording released by Decca to mark the beginning of Verdi�s Bicentenary Year
Forged in the white heat of live performance, Daniel Barenboim�s sensational account of Verdi�s Requiem on Decca is sure to stand among the most important classical releases of 2013 and to endure as a lasting landmark of the Verdi Year. It also represents the conductor�s first audio recording in his role as Music Director of Milan�s illustrious opera house.
Barenboim�s vision of the composition highlights the work�s rich humanity, from the searing force of its Dies irae (�Day of wrath�) to the transcendent beauty of the closing Libera me prayer (�Deliver me�).
The new recording features an all-star cast, complete with one of today�s greatest Verdians, Jonas Kaufmann, whose interpretation of the work�s sublime tenor solos captivate the ear. It also connects directly with the great Verdi legacy cultivated by the Orchestra of Milan�s Teatro alla Scala, scene of the Requiem�s first concert presentation in May 1874 and of many legendary performances since.
Soprano Anja Harteros, mezzo-soprano Elīna Garanča and the mighty bass Ren� Pape here join forces with Jonas Kaufmann to form a dream team of soloists. The excellence and subtle insights of their work are underpinned by compelling choral singing from the Chorus of La Scala and electrifying playing from Maestro Barenboim�s Milanese orchestral musicians.
Decca�s audio, DVD and Blu-ray recordings of Verdi�s Requiem capture the energy produced by these performers in concert at La Scala last September.
�I was blown away by [Barenboim�s] Requiem�, wrote Richard Morrison in The Times, following the work�s performance at the Lucerne Festival. �Highlights? Kaufmann�s first entry was like an erupting volcano. Garanča was as mesmerising, floating creamy legatos while mustering a thrilling chest voice that I never thought she possessed�.�.�.�
�Kaufmann�.�.�. impressed in his Ingemisco�, wrote BachTrack of his Salzburg Festival Requiem performance, �balancing tenderly voiced opening phrases with an underlying force that carefully came to the fore, ensuring that the first top B flat wouldn�t seem to come from nowhere.�

- Results in 2 days! Review by bbcaz
Quality Price Value I am a 61 year old male and have dark circles and just started to notice puffiness under the eye. I got this as a sample and just after 2 days of use, the dark circles under my eyes have lightened up 100%. Unbelievable! I will be ordering a full size jar very soon. Price doesn't matter if you are getting the results that you want.
- the best Review by cherylmck
Price Value Quality I have tried all the "best" eye creams on the market. I just kept searching and trying to find one that I actually got results with. I have been using this eye cream for 1 week. I have noticed a difference in the fine lines, they have been minimized. I had a little bit of sagging skin on my upper eye, that has diminished. I love this product. I have found the best eye cream.
- The best!!! Review by Susan
Quality Price Value I am that kind of person that spend a lot if money in eye product. After my first time using it my eye area looks and feels different.
- not good Review by ks
Value Quality Price i personally don't think this product is worthwhile. Mine dried up and now it's useless. I didn't even use half of it.
- Try it you won't be sorry Review by Shanagirl
Price Value Quality I got this as a sample and was very skeptical. Then I used it. Omg. The results are amazing. I've only used for three nights and can see and feel a difference. I will be buying this product. Wonderful. Someone finally got it right!!!
- Fantastic!!!! Review by CRB
Price Value Quality I used the eye cream last night and this morning and am incredibly happy with the results! That's an understatement - I am overjoyed with the results! Even with just two uses, the skin above my eyes is much less wrinkly. It looks plumper and fuller and smoother. I'm 42 years old and have always rubbed my eyes like crazy and when I saw some wrinkles above my eyes I got a bit panicky and purchased this cream. I am excited to see such a dramatic improvement in such a short time and will definitely keep using this product - and I will stop rubbing my eyes!!!
- Amazing Review by Shf
Price Value Quality Every eye cream I used before this irritated my eyes causing burning and watery eyes. Some even made the dry patches on my eyelid and under my eye worse. After 2 days of using this eye balm the dry patch on my eyelid was completely gone. And there is absolutely no burning and watery eyes. It really does reduce bags and dark circles too. For once my eyes look hydrated and smooth. Love this stuff!
- Excellent! Review by Buttercup
Price Value Quality I have tried all the expensive eye creams but I am still dry under my eyes. i just tried this product and now I have a dewy look and my eyes are totally moisturized...what a relief!
- Awesome product Review by JS
Price Value Quality This product is well worth the cost. It only takes a dab to gain results. It makes a very noticeable difference in dark circles and puffiness. I have been using it for about a year and haven't seen an increase in fine lines. It is non-greasy and absorbs quickly into the skin. I love this product and will continue to use it.
- Worth it! Review by Blondie
Price Value Quality I use this twice a day, every day, and always look as though I've had a full night's sleep. No more puffy, baggy eyes! I've also seen an improvement in fine lines.
I have extremely sensitive skin, particularly around my eyes (with some eye creams I've used, I get tiny white bumpy spots around my eyes) and I can use this cream without any burning or other ill effects. Huge pros for me to be able to use this cream AND see positive results! - eye balm Review by jan
Price Value Quality Best eyecream I have ever used. Really decreases puffiness and creates smoothness.
- wrinkle revenge rescue & protect eye balm Review by Kelly
Price Value Quality love this product! this is the only eye balm i've found that is safe to apply to your eyelid and helps prevent sagging.
- My Fave Dermadoctor Product Review by Christopher
Price Value Quality The one product I can't be without. I started to get some stuff going on under the eye area but this product sorted it all out. Keeps me moisturized and wrinkle free around and especially under the eyes. Very nice and light. I like the consistency very much and a little does go a long way. The small jar lasts me for months. I don't like being without this one!
- great product Review by skinfanatic
Price Value Quality I have been very particular with skin products and I have tried many, but this product can really minimize any fine lines from forming and have actually decreased fine lines around my eyes. It is sort of pricey for such a small amount, but it does a great job with such a little amount that you would have to apply. I love it and would not even consider any other product. It has lot let me down...I will continue to replenish my supply of them.
- Thank Goodness for Free Samples Review by Donna
Price Value Quality If I had not received a free sample with another order I might have never discovered this amazing eye cream. With sensitive skin every product I tried left me with "raccoon" red circles around my eyes which burned for days. This cream is perfect for me. I tried my old cream again just to be sure. Same red circles! This product really does work for sensitive skin. I love it!
- didn't meet expectations Review by Older
Quality Price Value If I were younger the cream would be fine. I have sensitive skin and it didn't irritate my eyes or skin but did break me out in the under eye area. What I purchased it for was under eye circles and it did not live up to my expectations - in fact there is now what looks like a "white spot" under one of my eyes. It is a return for me.
- !!! Review by dryeyes
Quality Price Value so worth it! i have very sensitive eyes that tend to tear over everything and this product has been wonderful. very hydrating and works wonderfully under makeup.
- Love it! Review by GF, Carrollton, GA USA
Quality Price Value I have been so disappointed in so many eye creams -- not moisturizing enough, too heavy and melted my mascara, irritated my eyes, etc. This product is wonderful -- very moisturizing and cooling but with absolutely no greasy feel! And it's a much larger jar than eye cream normally comes in, which makes quite a difference on how I view the price. I've only been using it for about a week, so can't comment on the benefits that may come from continued use over a longer period of time, but I know that it's heads above anything I've ever used and that I plan to continue using it! Thanks so much for such a great product!
- The Cat's Meow Review by Woodbury, MN USA
Quality Price Value I was thrilled to receive this product. It's huge! I bet it lasts a year AND I love how my eyes feel and look. Less bagginess, firmer skin, lines are disappearing. I'm hooked.
- Love it, love it, love it!! Review by YH, Auburn, CA
Quality Price Value I absolutely hands down love this eye balm. It plumps up and soothes the skin without eye irritation...and the skin around my eyes is super sensitive. The texture of the product is excellent. So far the best cream I have found to date. I gave it 4 flasks because I do not like dipping my finger into the jar to get the cream out; I wish this product came in a tube instead of a jar.
- Visible Results Review by USA
Quality Price Value I received my order containing the eye balm and face cream. After only two days using these products I was able to see visible results. I am 55 years old and have a nice complexion but I am starting to see wrinkles under my eyes and near my mouth. I have seen improvements in both these areas as well as a nicer complexion overall. I can only imagine how I will look with continued use. I look forward to getting up each morning and looking in the mirror. Thank you for a wonderful line of products that work.
- I'm glad that I decided to jump in and try this immediately when available Review by TU
Quality Price Value Huge jar...works great. Not oily, heavy or too light. It will last long - you won't be dissapointed. Face cream is exceptional too. Performs true to the statements below. Plus -no animal testing. • Non Comedogenic • Non Irritating • Allergy Tested • Fragrance Free • Dye Free • No Animal Testing
- Worth every penny! Review by CMN, Satellite Beach, FL USA
Quality Price Value After using the eye balm my dark circles have been minimized and the tiny lines under my eyes are so faint. I have tried many other much more expensive products that failed to deliver - this product delivers and you only need to use a little bit. It will last a LONG time!
- Finally! Review by Long Island, New York
Quality Price Value I love this eye cream! I have never written a review for anything before, but this really does work and is worth every penny. I've tried loads of others and this is only one that made a huge inprovement. No more puffy eyes or circles and really reduced wrinkles!
- Wonderful! Review by SS, Louisville, KY
Quality Price Value I've used many, many expensive products over the years that made promises they could not deliver. DERMAdoctor Wrinkle Revenge delivers and is very kind to my sensitive skin! Love it!
- Fabulous! Review by SS, Louisville, KY
Quality Price Value I've used the most expensive products on the market, and none compare to DERMAdoctor Wrinkle Revenge Rescue & Protect Eye Balm. This product delivers and is kind to my very sensitive skin.
- Amazing eye cream Review by CSS, Lake Charles
Quality Price Value This is the best eye cream I have ever used. The little lines under my eyes that were starting to show are gone. The jar is huge, and since you only need a little bit of product it lasts forever. I've been using it for months now and have barely put a dent in the jar. Highly recommended--even better than MD Forte's eye cream.
- FABULOUS Product! Review by WR, Chicago, IL
Quality Price Value After only a few days I am noticing improvement. I have tried so many products that have not done much and this has really plumped up the lines in this very stubborn area.
- Love this eye balm! Review by New York City
Quality Price Value This stuff feels great! It's light and smooth, and absorbs quickly. The skin around my eyes feels incredibly soft. Firms, lessens wrinkles & fades dark circles - it's the best all in one eye treatment. And for an eye balm, the jar is HUGE!
- 'Eye' love it! ;) Review by AMR, TX
Quality Price Value I have very sensitive skin and have tried quite a few eye creams. Some have been too oily and have caused bumps. Others caused stinging. And, others caked and looked awful under make-up. Dermadoctor Eye Balm does none of these things! It feels great . . . not too oily, hydrating, and looks great under make-up. Thanks Dr. Kunin! Also, you get quite a large amount. This is yet another Dermadoctor product I will purchase religiously.
- instant gratification! Review by Aida, perth,australia
Quality Price Value This product works faster than fastfood. It actually depuffs & softens lines AS you rub it in!THATS GOT TO BE A 21ST CENTURY BENCHMARK!!Its a beautiful, light balmy texture thats gentle on the delicate eye area. Its heavier on the payslip BUT i realise you only get 1 pair of eyes per lifetime Seeing they are often mascara-ed and eye-shadowed, it is definitely worth splurging on top ingredients. The Australian sun is harsh & i work in an air conditioned environment too. i now use the time i save (FROM NOT SHOPPING AT DEPARTMENT STORES)to go clothes shopping! yippeeee...
- Not so great Review by PDB, Boston, MA
Quality Price Value Although this product offers good moisture for the upper eyelid area, it has not helped at all with puffiness in the a.m or p.m.
- Best eye cream ever Review by B.M., Merrillville, In.
Quality Price Value I am on my 3rd jar of this wonderful product. I have noticed such a huge difference in the area under my eyes. I have tried several other creams over the years(I am 48) and this is by far the best. I have paid alot more for others and didnt get as much or see much results. Keep up the good work!!!
- Too much for not so happy experience Review by Urbana, IL
Quality Price Value I purchased this product, despite the price tag, after reading about it on this site and on some other beauty store sites, thinking that if some of these listed properties were accurate, I would surely benefit. Unfortunately this is the only DermaDoctor product that I had a bad experience with. My eyes watered everytime I applied them. I started to feel irritation under my eyes, and new lines and wrinkles started to form. I had to stop using the product, and the symptoms stopped. I would not characterize my skin as overly sensitive, and I love DermaDoctor producst so I am baffled with this experience.
- Best eye cream ever! Review by CM, IL
Quality Price Value I have used the best of the best eye creams and have spent up to $120 on a single one. This is by far the best, not only does it get rid of those fine lines, the circles are gone and I no longer have that hollowed out look you get with age!
- i keep buying this Review by chicago, IL
Quality Price Value i love this eyecream. it's mild and seems to prevent things from getting worse. i had some tiny fine lines starting and this has staved them off. i also thoroughly trust the dermadoctor brand.
- Wonderful! Review by LM, Las Vegas, NV
Quality Price Value I am 24 years old and I ordered the Wrinkle Revenge Rescue & Protect Eye Balm from DERMAdoctor.com and I love it. I have only been using it for a few days, but the skin around my eyes feels firmer and tighter, and I actually have to use less under-eye concealer because it has improved the skin tone around my eye area. It feels cooling on the skin, and a little bit goes a long way! Thanks DERMAdoctor for your great products.
- Very Pleased! Review by ACD, Corona, CA USA
Quality Price Value I purchased this product after reading the many great reviews on this website as well as my positive experiences with other products from the DERMAdoctor line. I also purchased it in combination with the daytime moisturizer (combo pack) and I am so happy that I did! From Day One my eyelids and eyelid area was softer, brighter, firmer. Product goes a long way, so only a small dot for each eye is needed, thus the jar will last a long time, making it a great value for me. Very silky, soft, non-odorous, gentle. Would def recommend to anyone!
- No more milia! Review by RIC, Tulsa, OK
Quality Price Value I have sensitive skin and most eye creams I have tried end up producing those little white bumps in the undereye area (milia). Based on dermadoc recommendations I ordered this product which is more like a balm and not heavy. This in combo with the Neova scrub she recommends has been slowly but surely removing the milia AND reducing my fine lines near my eyes. The product did make my eyes tear if I put it on the actual eyelid so I avoid that area now and no problems.
- A miracle in a jar! Review by LCD, Fair Lawn, NJ USA
Quality Price Value I have EXTREMELY sensative eyelids and I am allergic to almost everything. I was a bit apprehensive trying this eye cream bacause I thought that I would surely have a reaction to it. Prior to using the cream, my eyelids were red and itchy due to allergies. I had fine lines and dryness as a side effect to the medicine I was using to stop the itching. After using Dermadoctor Eye Balm for about three weeks, my eyelids cleared up! The lines, dryness and itching are just about gone! I don't normally write product reviews, but I have to say I was SO pleased at the results that I just had to let everyone know. I highly recommend this eye balm :)

Houston Texans running back Arian Foster (23) rushes during the third quarter against the St. Louis Rams at Reliant Stadium. / Troy Taormina, USA TODAY Sports
A few additional fantasy nuggets to help owners set their Week 8 lineups, including injuries, sit/start matchup, a tip of the week and the hottest waiver wire pickups.
Injury report
RB DeMarco Murray, Cowboys (questionable)
Murray could have played last week and we fully expect him to start in Week 9.
QB Robert Griffin III, Redskins (probable)
Removed from Sunday's game as a precaution. His knee should be fine for an excellent matchup vs. Chargers.
RB Zac Stacy, Rams (questionable)
As of Wednesday Stacy's status was still up in the air. With Richardson being a capable starter we don't anticipate the Rams starting Stacy, opting to let heal.
WR Stevie Johnson, Bills (questionable)
He's carried the questionable tag for awhile now and continues to put up decent numbers. Pencil him in as your WR3 for Week 9.
TE Jimmy Graham, Saints (probable)
Graham will be tagged as probable and/or questionable for the remainder of the season. His snap count will be limited as well as his yards but he's still a top 10 TE.
WR Roddy White, Falcons (questionable)
White can't be counted on this week. Look for Harry Douglas and Drew Davis to pick up the slack against a stout Carolina defense this week.
RB Arian Foster, Texans (questionable)
We expect Houston to sit Foster this week, Ben Tate isn't anything more than a flex due to his four broken ribs.
WR James Jones, Packers (questionable)
As of Wednesday Jones's status is still up in the air, even if he starts this week he'll likely be limited.
QB Josh Freeman, Vikings (questionable)
Back practicing with the first team, but concussion may still result in Matt Cassel starting vs. Dallas.
-- Kurt Turner, FantasyKnuckleheads.com
Key matchup
START: RB Chris Johnson, Titans
Outside of two big plays, Johnson's been non-existent. That should change this week. The St. Louis Rams run defense allows 4.2 yards per carry and CJ2K should have plenty of running room.
SIT: RB Lamar Miller, Dolphins
Coming off a 112-yard effort in Week 8, his matchup is a bad one. The Cincinnati Bengals are No. 9 against the rush, allowing only one running back to rush for more than 60 yards.
- Marc Caviglia, BrunoBoys.net
Tip of the week
When the deep bye weeks hit, fantasy owners often must dig deep into the waiver wire for a spot starter or two. Look at recent scoring opportunities to find the right plug-and-play spot start player. The following lesser known receivers have recently been active close to their opponents' goal line: Cincinnati Bengals WR Marvin Jones and New Orleans Saints WR Kenny Stills. Among running backs, the St. Louis Rams' Daryl Richardson and the New England Patriots' LeGarrette Blount have both seen carries near the goal line and could be available in your league for a desperation spot start.
-- Tony Holm, FantasySharks.com

Newsgroups: alt.conspiracy,alt.politics.white-power Subject: Paranoia as Patriotism: The Arizona Patriots Archive/File: pub/orgs/american/adl/paranoia-as-patriotism/ arizona-patriots Last-Modified: 1995/08/22 The Arizona Patriots The Arizona Patriots was an anti-Semitic group with an emphasis on stockpiling weapons and baiting public officials. (The group had disbanded by the end of the 1980's, but recent reports indicate that the group may be reconstituting itself.) The group first gained public notice by its efforts to clog the Arizona court system with nuisance lawsuits in the 1980's. This was a tactic also employed by the violence-prone Posse Comitatus, whose adherence to the anti-Semitic "Identity" doctrine and refusal to recognize any governmental authority higher than the county level were shared by the Arizona Patriots. Ty Hardin, self-styled "freedom fighter" and former film and TV actor, led the Arizona Patriots. After a mid-1970's dispute with the IRS, Hardin ran a tax protest school called the Common Law Institute, whose packet of materials included a "Patriot Handbook" containing "tested cases and methods to maintain good personal freedom." In 1983 and 1984, Hardin edited _The Arizona Patriot_, a monthly journal that printed diatribes against government officials, calls for "Christian Patriots" to band together, and reprints of articles from such anti-Semitic publications as _The Spotlight_ and _The National Educator_, as well as from _Executive Intelligence Review_, the magazine of the conspiracy-oriented Lyndon LaRouche political cult. _The Arizona Patriot_ was published by Norman Kuhman, signer of the 1984 "indictment" document issued by the California-based Committee of the States. In fact, mirroring the California-based Committee, the Arizona Patriots issued a collective "indictment" in June 1984, against all elected Arizona officials, threatening to conduct a "grand jury inquest" unless those officials resigned within 30 days. The document was written in the name of the Committee for the State of Arizona, Assembled. During the same meeting at which the Patriots drew up its "indictment," heavily armed members, clad in combat fatigues, discussed plans to murder Arizona's then-Governor, Bruce Babbitt, U.S. Superior Court Judge Paul Rosenblatt, and members of the state's Department of Public Safety. Following a two-year FBI undercover probe, Federal agents raided a Patriot camp in 1986, and confiscated a homemade blowgun, night-vision goggles, pamphlets depicting nuclear war, gas masks, spent shell casings, numerous rocket ammunition crates and publications of the Aryan Nations. The investigation also uncovered a plot to finance a paramilitary base by robbing an armored car in Nevada; Patriot surveillance of the Phoenix ADL regional office as part of a bomb plan; and plans for the group to bomb a Phoenix synagogue, and Ogden, Utah IRS facility, and the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles. FBI agents arrested eight members of the group, who also had in their possession blueprints for three U.S. dams. Of those arrested, three - Jack Oliphant, Monte Ross and Daniel Arthur - were sentenced to four-year Federal prison terms, three were sentenced to five years' probation, one was released, and one remains a fugitive. Ty Hardin left Arizona, and the group soon ceased to function. In prison, Jack Oliphant wrote a 70-page manuscript titled "To Alter or Abolish the Government" in which, according to _USA Today_, he said that an "all-out, do or die, to the last man civil war" is the only way patriots can "throw off one status of citizenship while retaining the territory in which they reside." Following his release, Oliphant returned to the Kingman, Arizona area, where he sheltered neo-Nazi Skinhead Jay Raspberry after an automobile-ramming incident for which three counts of aggravated assault were later brought against Raspberry. In a recent interview, Oliphant blamed a "Jew judge" for his own conviction in the 1980s. (Anti-Defamation League, 7-8) Work Cited Anti-Defamation League.

The standard treatment for esophageal cancer is radiation therapy and the chemotherapy drugs paclitaxel and carboplatin, followed by surgery to remove the esophagus. In this study, researchers want to see if adding the drug trastuzumab (Herceptin) to this treatment combination is more effective for reducing the risk of cancer recurrence than the standard treatment alone.
Trastuzumab works by targeting a protein called HER2, which is produced in excess in some cancers, including some esophageal cancers. In this Radiation Therapy Oncology Group study, patients will be randomly assigned to receive the standard treatment, or the standard treatment plus trastuzumab given before and after surgery. Only patients with HER2-positive esophageal cancers can receive trastuzumab.
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:

APTA's Fit After 50 campaign is officially under way. Launched in conjunction with National Physical Therapy Month, Fit After 50 is designed to reach Baby Boomers with the message that physical therapists play a vital role in helping people aged 50 and older remain active, fit, and mobile as they age.
Check out 50 Days, 50 Ways, a daily series of 50 tips for Baby Boomers from APTA members about how to prevent injury and maintain mobility by staying active and fit. Find the tips on www.moveforwardpt.com/FitAfter50, Twitter @MoveForwardPT, and Facebook.com/MoveForwardPT. Encourage your friends, family, colleagues, and community members who are 50 and older to visit the site and share the tips with their social networks.
Also check out the APTA Fit After 50 Member Challenge, an opportunity to nominate a deserving APTA member, including yourself, who is 50 years old or older and committed to being active and fit, and encourages others to be the same. Go to www.apta.org/FitAfter50/ to learn more about the campaign and submit your nomination.
If you are currently helping people aged 50 and older to remain active and fit as they age, let us know by contacting email@example.com.
