Cain hopes to stay on track against Braves
Giants ace coming off first win after struggling out of the gate
Is the ace back for good?
That's what the Giants are wondering after right-hander Matt Cain dazzled in his last start against the Dodgers for his first win of the season. Cain allowed just one run on five hits in 7 1/3 innings on Sunday, improving to 1-2 on the season with a 5.57 ERA.
San Francisco will get its answer on Friday when the Braves and Giants square off at AT&T Park.
After allowing seven runs on seven hits on April 18 to fall to 0-2 with a hefty 7.15 ERA, Cain has had three straight starts in which he's tossed at least six innings and allowed four runs or fewer.
"It wasn't something I was proud of," Cain said of his early-season struggles. "I didn't pitch well for the guys. I needed to step it up. ... I got better as the game went along. I made better pitches and got ahead in the count."
Cain will have some tough competition to get win No. 2 with Tim Hudson on the hill for Atlanta. Hudson is 2-0 with a 3.10 ERA in his last three starts.
Hudson (4-1, 3.83 ERA) recorded his second straight win on Sunday against the Mets, compiling career win No. 201 by allowing just three runs on five hits over 7 1/3 innings. He also struck out seven while walking one.
"I felt all right out there," Hudson said. "Early on, I was making some pitches. They came out pretty aggressive and I was able to get some quick outs."
Hudson's success this season isn't a surprise to former A's teammate and Giants starter Barry Zito.
"We knew that was coming as long as he could stay healthy," Zito said. "He's overcome some tough injuries. He's still battling, and it's great to see."
Braves: Venters' first mound session cut short
Reliever Jonny Venters felt left elbow discomfort on Thursday while throwing off a mound for the first time since receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection on April 2.
Venters threw approximately 10 pitches before cutting his bullpen session short at AT&T Park. The left-handed reliever was planning to throw at least 20 pitches.
Venters battled elbow discomfort during the final two weeks of Spring Training and received the PRP injection after being evaluated by Dr. James Andrews.
"It just wasn't as comfortable as I wish it would have been," Venters said. "We'll see what tomorrow brings and we'll go from there."
Giants: Casilla out with cyst in right knee
Reliever Santiago Casilla will likely be sidelined for a few days to cope with the discomfort caused by a cyst in his right knee, manager Bruce Bochy said before Thursday's game against the Braves.
Bochy said the Giants have known about the cyst since last year but its never been an issue.
On Wednesday, Casilla faced two Philadelphia batters in the eighth and probably would have finished the inning, but the pain forced him to leave the game.
George Kontos and Chad Gaudin, the other right-handed relievers besides closer Sergio Romo, will likely play more prominent roles in Bochy's bullpen plans while Casilla rests.
Worth noting
• Braves starter Brandon Beachy completed his last live batting practice session on Thursday. If all goes well during his bullpen session on Monday, Beachy could begin his Minor League rehab assignment on Wednesday or Thursday.
• Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez will miss Friday and Saturday's games against the Giants while attending daughter Gigi's graduation from Georgia Southern University.
• "Mystery baseballs," a popular item during Giants Spring Training, will return Friday as the Giants Community Fund and the Giants Wives combine to stage a fundraiser for people affected by the Boston Marathon bombing and the fertilizer-plant fire and explosion in West Texas.

CHARACTER Jill Von Crastenburg | |
Appearance(s): | Grand Theft Auto IV Grand Theft Auto V (unconfirmed) |
Full name: | Jill Von Crastenburg |
Gender: | Female |
Date of birth: | 1995 |
Place of birth: | Liberty City |
Home: | Westdyke |
Nationality: | American |
Main affiliation: | Cloe Parker Kayla Paulo |
Vehicle(s): | Turismo |
Jill Von Crastenburg is a character who is mentioned in Grand Theft Auto IV.
[show]Background and personality
Jill Von Crastenburg was born in Liberty City, into the Von Crastenburg Family, one of the richest families in the world. Jill is a parody of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie (but as a teenager). She is the best friend of Cloe Parker, Since her 11th birthday, she has been internationally famous for her extreme wealth and presence on the Liberty City party circuit. When she was 12, she was sent to 15 expensive private schools at the same time after she could walk again after her father gave her diamond miners for her 12th birthday. She is frequently hounded by paparazzi - the most outlandish examples include her being told to re-enact a tantrum because cameramen were not at the scene, and media attention for her doing the most mundane activities (buying STD cream in a Downtown Los Santos supermarket), according to Our Own Reality, Jill is apparently one of the world's most photographed celebrities and suffers from an unspecified eating disorder. She is extremely spoiled and self-absorbed. Jill has suffered from a nervous breakdown (in which she was placed into a psych ward for observation, though it was speculated that this was just a publicity stunt for her upcoming reality show)
In early 2008, she began a three-week relationship with Cuban baseball player Ernesto Asaltacunas. At the beginning of GTA IV she left him for a new boyfriend, and a sex tape was released of her cheating on him by giving oral sex to an Opium Nights valet, as her boyfriend paid the bar tab in the very next room. The tape quickly circulated on Electric Tit but was removed from the site.
There is a hotel in Los Santos called "Von Crastenburg Hotel". She, along with her family, might own it, however this is unconfirmed.
By most sources she is only 13 years old during GTA IV, though her sexual activity, popularity among the internet porn crowd and admittance to bars makes this highly unlikely. According to Our Own Reality she is a college dropout, but they confirm that she is still in her teens.
Assuming that she is 13, she is most likely a caricature of modern children (especially wealthy and famous) growing up too fast. The scenario is also likely meant to poke fun at the unhealthy sexual images of Lindsay Lohan, Hillary Duff, Miley Cyrus and the Olsen Twins, while they were still under 18. Pedophilia is a topic discussed in the game.
Fame and wealth
The Von Crastenburg Family own many large homes. One of the many residences is a 45 bedroom mansion along in Westdyke, Alderney. It is on Owl Creek Ave, next door to Jill's best friend Cloe Parker. Jill's own bedroom features murals of erotic fairy tales (i.e. "Robin Hood taking it in the can from the big bad wolf") painted by celebrity artists Simon & Nigel, and she owns a flying rabbit as a pet. Despite amassing one of the largest fortunes in the world, the Von Crastenburgs do not pay taxes by claiming to practice their religion inside their house, according to I'm Rich.
Jill is also set to host a new reality TV show titled America's Sexiest Terrorist.

Arizona Cardinals
Adrian Wilson's career in Arizona may be coming to an end
If Sunday's game at University of Phoenix Stadium was safety Adrian Wilson's last chance to play in front of Cardinals fans, well, it was an unceremoniously ending (28-13 loss to the Chicago Bears) to a wonderful 12-year run.
Since coming to the Valley in 2001, the former third-round pick out of North Carolina State has been the heart and soul of the Cardinals' defense. And even before the team reached its only Super Bowl during the 2008 season, Wilson remained true to the organization through some really lean years (six consecutive losing seasons from 2001-2006).
Before there were expectations of the team winning division titles and making deep postseason runs, Wilson made a commit to remain a part of the team's long-term solution.
In an age where the sports industry is built on championship rings and free agency money, that level of loyalty is almost unheard of. Yet the five-time Pro Bowler never wavered in his passion for the Arizona Cardinals.
Even after a 2011 season in which he made yet another trip to Hawaii (despite playing the entire year with a torn biceps injury), Wilson agreed to restructure his contract (which reduced his base salary for this season) during training camp, because he wanted to do what was in the best interest of the team.
But as the first 15 games of the 2012 campaign have indicated, the 33-year-old's days in the Valley may be numbered. In the team's Week 11 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, defensive coordinator Ray Horton opted to use Rashad Johnson in nickel packages instead of Wilson. It's a trend that has continued more and more over the past five weeks.
When asked whether he got emotional or nostalgic during the team's home finale Sunday, Wilson suggested his mindset was on the Bears not on a potential Arizona departure.
"You know I hadn't thought about [the game being my last in Arizona] at all, until you guys brought it up," Wilson told media members following Sunday's defeat. "If they make a decision, I'm pretty sure it's going to be quick."
If the team decides to part ways with Wilson, they will being so with one of the most beloved members of the organization over the past decade. And also one of the most accomplished.
In the team's 38-10 victory over the Detroit Lions in Week 15, Wilson became just the sixth player in NFL history to record 25 interceptions and 25 sacks for a career, joining Ray Lewis, Rodney Harrison, Ronde Barber, William Thomas and Brian Dawkins.
However, as Sunday's game illustrated (one solo tackle), Wilson's best days may be behind him. Yet for the Arizona's strong safety, the thought of leaving the only franchise and city he's ever known isn't a comforting one, even if it means going to a team with a brighter future.
As he made sure to remind everyone Sunday, the move would be harder on his family than it would be for him.
"What goes through my mind is having to move my family, having to find my kids another school, will they like the school," said Wilson, who has three children ages 3, 8 and 10. "That's what goes through my mind [when talking about a potential move], it's my family. I can adjust."

Joke of the day
Every man needs a go-to joke.
Top 8 Things You'll Never Hear A Man Say 8. Here honey, you use the remote. 7. You know, I'd like to see her again, but her breasts are just too big. 6. Ooh, Antonio Banderas and Brad Pitt? That's one movie I gotta see! 5. While I'm up, can I get you anything? 4. Sex isn't that important, sometimes I just want to be held. 3. Aww, forget Monday Night Football, let's watch Melrose Place. 2. Hey, let me hold your purse while you try that on. 1. We never talk anymore.
The End Is Near A priest and pastor from the local parishes are standing by the side of the road holding up a sign that reads, "The end is near! Turn yourself around now before it's too late!" They planned to hold up the sign to each passing car. "Leave us alone you religious nuts!" yells the first driver as he speeds by. From around the curve they hear screeching tires and a big splash. "Do you think," says one clergy to the other, "we should just put up a sign that says "Bridge Out" instead?"
What A Gasser A young man comes home from a war to see his mother in the hills of West Virginia. She has never left the hills and has never seen anything like her son's uniform or gun. He shows his mother both items, and then she asks about the grenades on his belt. He says, "Well, you pull the pin and throw it." She still doesn't quite get it, so he decides to demonstrate by throwing it into the backyard. The outhouse blows up and his mother cries, "Son you shouldn't have done that! Your father was in there." And out crawls his father, all covered in dirt. He looks over at the hole and says, "Good thing I didn't let that off in the house."
John's Pole John woke up one morning with an enormous erection, so he turned over to his wife's side of the bed. His wife, Heather, had already awakened, though, and was downstairs preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Afraid that he might spoil things by getting up, John wrote a note, called to his little boy, and asked him to bring the note to his wife. It read: The tent pole is up, The canvas is spread, The hell with breakfast, Come back to bed. Heather answered the note with one of her own, and asked her son to take it to her husband. The note read: Take the tent pole down, Put the canvas away, The monkey had a hemorrhage, No circus today. John read the note and scribbled a reply. He asked his son to take it to his wife. The note read: The tent pole is still up, And the canvas still spread, So drop what you're doing, And come give me some head. Heather answered the note and asked her son to deliver it to her husband. The note read: I'm sure that your pole's The best in the land. But I'm busy right now, So do it by hand!
Obstetrician Visit Catherine, pregnant with her first child, paid a visit to her obstetrician's office. After the exam, she shyly began, "My husband wants me to ask you..." "I know, I know," the doctor said, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "I get asked that all the time. Sex is fine until late in the pregnancy." "No, that's not it," Catherine confessed. "He wants to know if I can still mow the lawn."
Four Men Four men -- an engineer, an accountant, a chemist, and a government worker -- were bragging about how smart their dogs were. To show off, the engineer called to his dog and said, "T-Square, do your stuff." T- Square trotted over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen, and promptly drew a circle, a square and a triangle. Everyone agreed: that was pretty smart. But the accountant said his dog could do better. He called his dog and said, "Slide Rule, do your stuff." Slide Rule went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into four equal piles of three cookies each. Everyone agreed: that was good. But the chemist said his dog could do even better. He called his dog and said, "Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up, walked over to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a 10-ounce glass from the cupboard, and poured exactly eight ounces without spilling a drop. Everyone agreed: that was good. Then the three men turned to the government worker and said, "What can your dog do?" The government worker called to his dog and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff." Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, dumped on the paper, molested the other three dogs, claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for workers' compensation, and went home on sick leave.
NBA Injury A guy was limping, so his friend asked him what was up. "You know, my foot bugs me sometimes. It's just an old basketball injury." "Uh, aren't you kind of short for a basketball player?" "Oh no, I never played basketball, I just lost a crap load of money on the NBA finals last year and kicked in the TV."

The 1/72nd Scale SSN 571 Nautilus will be placed on temporary hold in favor of production of a 1/96th Scale SSN 571 Nautilus kit. The larger kits are selling much more slowly than the smaller, more easily handled kits. This release makes more sense as it fits in with our current 1/96th Scale Permit and Sturgeon kits. It also fits in with the several new 1/96th kits that we have planned in the next 24 months that will work perfectly with the soon to be introduced Precision Pattern ballast system, which will drop right into each one of these kits, allow us to keep costs to a minimum through standardization. I am still looking at a late summer 2014 release as the SSN 571 kit is our main focus at present. Photos to follow soon....

The KTM Enduro Factory Racing team continued their dominance in Portugal for Round 3 & 4 of the world championship at Vale de Cambra, completing two days of competition each with wins in all senior classes and all five factory riders on the podium.
Following on from a great performance the previous weekend at the GPs of Catalunya, the factory team has made a very promising start to the 2014 racing season.
Saturday's Round Three saw wins in all three classes and all five KTM factory riders on the podium for what team boss Fabio Fairoli said was a great day for his lineup. Fairoli was even more pleased after Sunday, when his riders once again delivered. "Nambotin and Cervantes were both great this weekend and today Meo was incredibly fast in the last three tests. When it comes to limits, he has no limits!"
Christophe Nambotin, Antoine Meo and Ivan Cervantes won E1, E2, and E3 on both days and they were well supported by Cristobal Guerrero in E1 and the team rookie Matthew Phillips of Australia who were both on the podium each day!
On Saturday Christophe Nambotin was a force in E1, winning seven of the twelve tests and making an excellent recovery from a crash in the first extreme test of the day to end up on the top of the podium. The French rider and current E3 world champion closed off his day with a 25-second advantage over second placed Eero Remes.
Nambotin was well supported by Christobal Guerrero who is clearly free of the injury problems that held him back last year. Despite a number of crashes the Spanish rider was never out of the top five and accrued enough time advantage to wrap up his day with a podium third. Nambotin was even more confident on Sunday with another eight test wins on the KTM 250 EXC-F while Guerrero again finished with a podium third.
Antoine Meo may have had a slow start on Saturday finishing fourth and third in the first two tests but the he took off. At the end of the day he had six test wins to his name and was 4.13 seconds overall in front of rival Pela Renet. Meo, always impressive, also picked up seven test wins with the KTM 350 EXC-F in E2 on Sunday including big wins in the last three of the day.
Ivan Cervantes and Matthew Phillips, experience and youth, are proving to be a winning combination in the big class and were again 1-2 on the podium with the veteran Spaniard 28 second ahead of Phillips who is in his rookie season with the factory team.
Cervantes later joked that the young Australian was making it hard for him but said he was more than happy with his day. "Matt is very fast but half way through the race I decided to take a different line and try not to make any mistakes and that paid off," Cervantes said, adding that the extreme test had been very difficult.
Cervantes picked up another win on Sunday with a great display of consistently good results , while Phillips, a rider that Farioli says still has a lot to learn, showed enough flashes of brilliance on the KTM 300 EXC to prove he is definitely a rider to watch in the future.

I love the in depth nature of this article, though I have one quibble, mostly with the researchers.
With so much space dedicated to debunking myths and assumptions regarding underage prostitution, I'd assume there would be a similar amount of research done on the trafficked foreign women/girls/boys who end up here. A single paragraph was dedicated to this, only to state in a resigned way that it is difficult to gather info on these types. Well that is kind of obvious! Why can't the researchers who pinpointed the non-existent disparity between boy/girl prostitutes, and proved the lack of pimps employ a few interpreters and go about collecting info with their coupon books? I'd suggest starting with any of the Asian speaking populations (Vietnamese might be big), Spanish speaking populations as well. These, IMO, are the areas most at risk-being that the language barrier and cultural homogeneity in areas cover up and hide much, and law enforcement/outside world are hesitant to even step in.
The article is great, especially in the way that it gives a refreshing look at a problem from an angle so few even want to look at. Why do the young prostitutes *want* to get into this trade? The answer to that question reflects so terribly on those "in charge," and this is the reason for the massive backlash (in Atlanta). The last point about permanence hits me a bit personally, being subjected to upheaval isn't gonna be fixed by more temporary "solutions." The problem of sticking to erroneous assumptions and false facts is that the problem never is addressed, thus never coming to a resolution...or close to one.

I think it would be nice to see running metrics of both proprietary and open source video drivers similar to the way a Mozilla employee made "http://www.arewefastyet.com/?machine=4" to show javascript performance improvements. That way we can see the rate of improvement of the drivers, especially the open source ones compared to the proprietary ones and maybe even their windows couterparts.

Michael, could you check up on your Via contacts on whether you could get a Nano dual core for review?
I think it would be cool to see a benchmarking deathmatch between different libc implementations:
Something like this:
(e)Glibc (dynamic) vs (e)Glibc (static) vs uclibc (static) vs dietlibc (static) vs bionic (metasploit port, static).
The Sta.li guys claim that static binaries are much faster. It would be nice to have some benchmarks on how big an influence different libc:s have on final performance sort of like how different compilers have been compared previously.
id like to see a proper oss driver revie with color tiling pageflipping on r600 +r300 and hyper z on r300. on 2 different cpus
I'd like to see compositing window managers benchmarked whenever games are benchmarked too. I do not play games very often but I use the WM all the time, and the video drivers do affect it a lot, so a WM benchmark would be much more relevant to me.
I know at least kwin has a show_fps plugin and scripting support, so it shouldn't be hard to devise a benchmark for it. Not sure wether compiz and others have scripting support, or how you would create a benchmark without that.
As posted by staalmannen here - a comparison of compilers.
GCC, TCC, Clang, OpenWatcom.
Compile time, resource usage.
Application performance for same app versions compiled on different compilers.
Two (or more) processor architectures - AMD and Intel.
I'd like to see a "Recommended Hardware" Leader Board where users could vote for the hardware that performs best and is most compatible with Linux.
Michael Larabel
Michael, thanks for the reply.
I checked out OpenBenchmarking.org a couple of times before I posted my original comment. It has a bunch of data on the site but I have a hard time condensing it into useful information or purchasing recommendations, though I'm sure it makes prefect sense to the site developers. It's about time Linux had something like that.
I've been messing with Linux and the X Windows System since the days when you had to manually set modlines to get anything to work and, frankly, I'd just as soon have something that mostly "just works". I think the best cards I've ever used under Linux were the Matrox G200 and G400 cards....
It seems that every few years I do a bunch of research to try and find a solid video card under Linux, but I can never seem to find definitive answers.
Benchmarks alone do not take into account subjective issues like ease of install. I worry that if I buy based on benchmarks alone, I'll get blazingly fast hardware, but will have to compile a custom kernel and a few other packages to realize the performance. That's not so bad, but I've been down that path and recompiling the kernel and/or drivers every time there's a new kernel release just isn't worth the effort to me any more.
I was thinking thinking of something along the lines of StorageReview.com's Leader Board but with more than just performance, like Best for Stock Ubuntu, Best for Stock Fedora, etc and/or Best for Open Drivers, Best with ATI Driver and Best with NVidia Driver.
It's so easy to find good hardware for Windows (Go to Newegg and select Most Reviews in your price range) I think Linux users deserve a easier hardware selection process. I also think that the manufacturers that provide better Linux support should be rewarded for their effort.
Thanks for the excellent site.

May have to wait for an update before I can fully play it. There are a few non-graphical bugs, like clicking on the shield Kingdom View icon can cause a seg fault and the tutorial doesn't always progress, it just sorta sits there even when you've done the task it asks you to.
I think most of the actual game is quite playable though.
Hmm. I guess i should start shitting briks cause paradox games use dot.net and direct3d atleast magicka does. Well dont mind... i own magicka. Prett neat game ya. Lets hope they release magicka
I was hoping Paradox would start porting their library over. I don't have Crusader Kings 2 yet (may just buy it because it's for Linux), but I bought one of their bundles and have tons of strategy games by them that I'd much rather play in Linux. Oddly, due to various bundles including it, have bought at least 4 copies of Mount and Blade series. Too bad Steam doesn't give you credits for them or something... would love to play it multiplayer with some of my friends. I'd really love for Mount and Blade to be ported, especially the second one that is coming out.
I'm pretty sure Magicka wasn't developed by Paradox, i.e. they only published it.
AFAIK their recent games are Europa Universalis IV, East vs. West, March of the Eagles, Crusader Kings II, Hearts of Iron 3, Rome, Sengoku and Victoria 2.
But speaking of CK2 I also bought it yesterday, but unfortunately it crashes after 10-20 minutes of playing. Has anyone got it running without crashing? If so, what are your specs and do you have any DLC?
Removing the "__" from the defines was sufficient.
It "seems" to work with mesa 9.0, r600g, HD 4000.
I didn't have the time to actually play it.
The resolution was fixed at 1920x1200 (native).
Hence, the game is slow.
Maybe there are some config files around to change it manually.
For some people it's not crashed.
E.g for me it's not crashed after 3 hours of playing, but before it's crashed 10 or so times (when I tried to reproduce bug from forums).
But as long as I see on paradox forums that isn't Linux-specific problem, so you just need to wait for patch.
Ubuntu 12.04 with MATE, AMD card with proprietary driver, 8GB ram. Yes. I got most of DLC exclude SI and new one.If so, what are your specs and do you have any DLC?
Being Total War addicted, I really love these games..
It will be mine at the next sale

I bought one of these a little over 3 years ago and it has worked flawlessly. True is a good brand and you can get service on them anywhere. This cooler is commercial quality and is a little loud so don't plan on using it in your basement if you expect it to be quiet. It will rapidly cool down a keg of beer that has warmed up on its way back from the store. I would buy this kegerator again. |

Head Start programs throughout Northern New York stand to lose more than $300,000 under federal sequestration.
While directions from the regional Head Start office in New York City or the national office Washington, D.C., have yet to trickle down to Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties, local agencies know their programs will be cut 5 percent.
Were starting to brainstorm, said Norma S. Cary, executive director of the St. Lawrence County Community Development Program. We certainly dont want to lose children served. We put some things in the budget like a part-time nurse, but we wont hire that individual now.
The Community Development Program runs the St. Lawrence County Head Start program, which serves 351 children each year. That program would lose about $142,000, since it is funded at just over $2.8 million. The Jefferson County program, which is overseen by the Community Action Planning Council of Jefferson County, may lose about $110,000, as it is funded annually at $2.2 million.
Lewis County Head Start, Lowville, will lose at least $50,000, since it is funded annually at slightly more than $1 million. Several attempts to reach Sandra Roberts, Lewis County Head Start executive director, were unsuccessful.
Marie E. Ambrose, Head Start/prekindergarten director of the Community Action Planning Council, said because the agency already is into the fifth month of its 2013 fiscal year, it would have to cut $110,000 from its budget by October.
Ive been with the agency for 27 years and I dont remember a cut like this, she said. Its our hope we will not have to reduce enrollment or staffing, but thatll be very difficult to do.
One option being considered is ending the Head Start school year one week early and starting the 2013-14 year a week later.
Nothing will be decided until after information is presented, and then reviewed by CAPCs policy council.
Mrs. Ambrose said she hopes Congress is able to come up with a deal to prevent program devastation because low-income children are the most vulnerable in the nation.
Head Start is a federal program that promotes school readiness of children from birth to age 5, from low-income families.
A majority of the programming in the north country is for 3- and 4-year-old children. A 5 percent cut nationwide means 70,000 children will lose access to Head Start, according to the national programs website.
Just four years ago, according to the national office, more than 64,000 slots for Early Head Start and Head Start programs were added through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act.

For the hundreds of thousands of kids in our country's foster care system, God certainly serves as their
Father in Heaven. Knowing this, we wanted to further help these children in need and designed a shirt called
"Child of God". For every "Child of God" shirt sold, we will donate $2 to a ministry called Child S.H.A.R.E.
Our prayer is for children in the foster care system to be adopted by Christian parents just as God has adopted
us as sons and daughters through our faith in Jesus!
"Yet to all who receive Him, to those who believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God - children born
not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God" John 1:12-13
Often we begin our prayers by using the phrase Dear God and or Dear Lord, but when Jesus was asked how we should pray, He replied. "...'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one." Matthew 6:9-13 When was the last time you personally prayed addressing God as your Dear Father? As Dear God, I can think of Him as Holy and all Powerful. As Dear Lord, I can think of Him controlling all things, and both ways are great. But when I address Him as my Dear Father, there is a greater personal connection that reassures me that He will gladly provide for me because He is my Dad. When I ask my Father in heaven for things, there is a greater realization of His undeserved grace that I find so comforting. I can expect my Father to listen to me and to help me. Jesus always referred to God as His Father, will you?
Item No: 225082 Product Reads: Child Of God. Adopted By God. "Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God - children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husbands will, but born of God." John 1:12-13 |

On Tap Today: Fireworks! (part 1)
There aren't many things in this life that you can count on, but you can always count on this: If it's Fourth of July Eve, there's a big boom in Milwaukee. The U.S. Bank Fireworks bring the ooohs and aaahs starting at 9:30 tonight off Veterans Park over Lake Michigan. You'll be able to see them all over town, even if you didn't camp out to get a front-row seat.
There's lots more where that came from; most of the Milwaukee area's municipal fireworks shows are tomorrow night. »Read Full Blog Post
$500,000 challenge grant to address sinking at the Rep
The Windhover Foundation — founded by the late Harry and Betty Quadracci and run today by their children — announced Saturday it has issued a $500,000 challenge grant as part of Milwaukee Repertory Theater's drive to repair its sinking, 115-year-old building.
In February, the Rep made public its problem with the building at 108 E. Wells St. The water table beneath the Patty & Jay Baker Theater Complex has dropped, exposing wooden pilings to rot and deterioration. The theater complex is home to the Quadracci Powerhouse Theater, Stiemke Theater and the Stackner Cabaret. »Read Full Article(5)
Skylight's 'I Hear America Singing' tells off-key story
In his robustly joyous poem "I Hear America Singing," Walt Whitman imagines everyday Americans "singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs," embodying an America as expansive and inclusive as the continent itself.
In Milwaukee-born Daron Hagen's virtuosic but also claustrophobic piece of the same name, Hagen (who also handles stage direction) risks reducing America to the lowest common denominator, in which difference is squashed so that harmony can prevail. Written for Skylight Music Theatre, it was unveiled in Skylight's Studio Theatre space Friday night. »Read Full Article

Florentine's 'La Bohème' brings down the house
If all 19th-century opera composers had understood the alchemy of creating a timeless work people would flock to hear more than a century after its creation, operas like Puccini's "La Bohème" wouldn't be the least bit special.
But they didn't. "La Bohème" is one of a rather short list of operas that fill concert halls and, if done well, leave audiences standing and cheering. »Read Full Article

This ring is great for the price. After reading the previous reviews on this product, I was scared to buy this, but after receiving the ring, the one I got was a good stone, cut well, and I can't see the inclusions. Like the other reviewer on here, I must have lucked out, and I absolutely LOVE this piece. As long as the quality of the ring I received is the same that gets shipped out, I definitely recommend this!
I selected this as my engagement ring. I am happy with it. It is pretty and unique, and quite large for the price. The diamond does have imperfections which are easy to see in the face, though, which is why I rated 4 stars instead of 5.
I love this ring. I was waiting for the price to go down. I feel like this was exactly what I was looking for in a black diamond.
I got this for my girlfriend's birthday, and to ask her to marry me (at the same time). Bear in mind we are both quite minimalist, and revere the color black. This is a great ring if you're looking for something modern, minimal and nontraditional. The nature of the stone means it won't be clear, so if 'flaws' bug you, this won't work. If you want an original stone in a minimal setting, this beats the standard, tired white solitaire hands down. It's big on small hands, and stands out next to other rings. The setting is particularly great (black metal). Order it a half size small if she's skinny. Both of us love it.
I was very impressed with this ring in every aspect, i wear it everyday and et compliments all the time. I love my ring and Overstock has very fast shipping and is easy to deal with.
This is supposed to be a sterling silver ring, however the diamond mount that connects the stone to the band turned coppery orange and green within 10 says. It is too expensive to have any part made of copper, and too cheap for me not to think that is what they used to mount the stone. I did return the ring, so I can't tell you about long term wear.
I have received many compliments on this ring from men and women of all ages. It has great sparkle and is a beauty you will enjoy wearing. Made me the envy of many friends.
I had to look up black diamond in Wikipedia to find out if there really was such a thing and oh, yes they are real diamonds. This one sparkles and looks great. The 1 ct size is a nice size, very noticeable and I would recommend this size for wearing with a silver band. The price is good too. Just think, you can own a large diamond at a very reasonable price!!! And black looks good with everything.
I was not expecting the quality and weight of this ring to be what it is. I am so pleased with the quality, timeliness of delivery, and sizing. This is the second ring my fiance & I ordered from overstock, the 1st I returned due to sizing. I cannot say enough about this ring's true, timeliss and simplistic beauty. I love this ring!
I shopped around a lot online for a black diamond ring before buying this ring. The ring was shipped very quickly and I'm very pleased with my purchase. The 1 ct. black diamond is a good size, even though black diamonds are denser than white diamonds and weigh more. A 1 ct. black diamond will be slightly smaller than a white diamond of the same weight. The color is very black, but the ring sparkles! The cut is great. My ring had very minor imperfections that are barely visible to the naked eye. I expected to see some very small chips or scratches, as black diamonds are extremely difficult to cut, but luckily my ring didn't have any that are noticible. I really love the setting too. The "V" shape side detail, and black metal on the prongs are a nice touch. And the stone is very secure. I'm very happy with the quality of the diamond and the seting for the money I spent. I was looking for something unique, beautiful and well crafted and that's exactly what I got.

Finally some useful information on actually trying these IGP's in Linux.
I want so bad to buy a mobo with one of these chipsets for my computers.
It's a huge dilemma though, which do you choose the 3200 or the 8200.
I am currently using the 690g Gigabyte Mobo and BE-2350 for my HTPC, and I haven't even screwed around with it in Linux yet. I think the 8200 is the choice for me on the Windows side just for the 8 channel LPCM capabilities (although it isn't actually supported yet). I really jumped the gun with buying the 690g not realizing that I would need a beefy CPU for hi-def content.
I want so bad to be able to make my HTPC a Mythbuntu box and be able to at least play 1080p .mkv and .mov files smoothly, but it looks like neither of these Chipsets are ready for this yet.
I also really like the 6 SATA ports on both of these mobo's for me to replace my main file server. I want to start with a 3x1TB Software Raid5 with Ubuntu 8.04 and then go up from there, maybe I will have to wait till October for 8.10

This year, on the 10th of June, the first episode of Futurama season 6 will go to air :)! This will be the first official Futurama episode (excluding the feature length films) since 2003; 7 years (for those who can't count)! It's fittingly called "Rebirth", and will be the first of the 13 episodes in season 6, and then a season 7 is also planned - we'll be having a total 26 new episodes! The whole original voice-acting cast is back and Matt Groening and David X. Cohen are still heading the team and writing episodes!
Now, I've known about this for quite a while now - as I'm sure most of you have as well - but actually getting an official release date and episode title just makes it seem that much more real and make me, personally, that much more excited. So how about you? Are you excited about the television return of Futurama? Or are you worried that it may be a failure and forever tarnish your opinion of Futurama? Will the episodes live up to the old ones? And how did you think the feature length films fared against the classic episodes?
Opinions and speculation please.

DeleteKristen has so beautiful eyes, sometimes green, sometimes gray and even blue. She is awesome, I love her :)
ReplyDeleteOmg...love her hair, make up, outfit, she just perfect
ReplyDeleteRob is at the after party with our beautiful bbgirl. So happy for them. He's so good to her. So supportive! Hope to see pics. Would love to see a new PDA picture of them after that awful airport incident. Let everyone know that they are strong and nothing can break them. Love you R/K so glad you made it!
ReplyDeleteAll I want to see is some robsten pics from the after party!! I miss them
ReplyDeleteOnly one journalist mentioned Rob was there for the screening - but who knows. I'm sure he supports her, regardless.
ReplyDeleteOur girl looks gorgeous as usual. I read on twitter Rob's there too for OTR after party at CM..lol
She looks soo cute. Young, fresh and perfect (if she was sick, she's much better, now). I think she's adorable! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Rob was there with her being sick and all. He's just so attentive when it comes to her. Even if he wasn't things are fine. People get so crazy for nothing. Just chill. She looks so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI read elsewhere that Rob was at the screening too. He sneaked in quietly so Kristen could have her big night. Then off to the afterparty.
ReplyDeleteKristen did look a bit tired. It seems like she hasn't totally recovered from the flu yet. But she tried her best to attend the event. She said before she won't miss a chance to promo OTR. I'm happy to know Rob was by her side at the time. They've always support each other. Take care, both of them.
ReplyDeleteI think the tweets are true. I love the way they support each other. They act like normal people which make them more closer to me.
ReplyDeleteLove to hear this. Robsten forever. So happy they sneaked away from paps, but i have to confess would be so happy if there was one tiny pic with both of them, one pic wich didnt bother them. I've missed them and have been so sad over the circumstances around the latest pics of them together at lax. Poor kristen looked tired but still so beutiful.
Yes, but you need the name of the twitter account or a link to read the tweets. For example if you wanna read the tweets from RobstenDreams you can just google @RobstenDreams and then you will get a link to their twitter account (don't forget the "@", it's important) or you can go directly to https://twitter.com/name of the account.

"This invitation is one of our top 2 choices for our wedding. It is very modern but chic! Simple enough for our taste but still elegant! We love how organized and neat the style is and the texture of the paper is smooth and not to heavy!"
"We were very pleased with the way these turned out. We did change the font for the names as others have suggested - much more legible and still very pretty. A word of caution however: if you include more than just the invitation (and most people will at least have a response card), the postage may be more than regular first class even though the envelope is a standard size. We enclosed the invitation, response card, response envelope and an inner liner (which looks great) and the postage was 61 cents (!). Just be sure to weigh one at the post office before getting your stamps."
"This invitation was perfect for the intimate, elegant and simple look we were going for our wedding. Just what we were looking for!"
"These are a great shape and ship with normal postage. Loved this design. Color was perfect for my fall wedding. I paired this orange with bright pinks and peaches for the flowers."
"I was thrilled with this invitation - the paper quality and printing are both excellent. We were looking for a traditional layout with a modern flair and love this design! WPD's customer service was outstanding and answered all of our questions."

- The 3rd Performance of the Noise Orchestra.
- A concert of handmade, hand-wired, and hand-coded instruments.
- Saturday, August 10th, 2013.
- Location: Noisebridge, the Mission, San Francisco.
- Duration: about 15 minutes
The Noise Orchestra is an open ensemble of handmade, hand-wired, and hand-coded instruments. Anyone on planet Earth can be a member of the orchestra. No music experience required.
The Noise Jam is a participatory ritual. A way for the community to come together, away from the dramas, the mailing lists, the meetings, the talk. A way to bring together disparate, solo hacks into a unified collaboration.
We give shape and meaning to chaos. We transform noise into something which is not chaos. Noise as a path to creativity. A bridge. A noise bridge.
Some ask for a moment of silence; I ask for a moment of noise.
To help to set up chairs, work with the PA, Recordist, Videographer, Photographer. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
This performance is a conceptual piece. There is no notated sheet-music, only descriptive instructions. The composer will conduct the performance.
- Bedlam: During this movement, all instruments are encouraged to play loudly and raucously. Players should play with no regard for the other instruments, and should step on each other's sounds with gusto. Wake the audience up! 5 min.
- Whisper: This movement will begin with the quietest instruments in the Orchestra. Throughout the movement, players are asked to play as quietly as possible, and to listen carefully to the other instruments. Lull the audience into a dreamlike state. 5 min.
- Pulse: Players will play on and around a slow, steady pulse, increasing in tempo during the movement, until it ends in high-speed frenzy. Give the audience a heart attack. 5 min.
If you build your own instrument (of mineral, vegetable, circuitry, or code), then you've already passed the audition. No music experience required.
- You must build or program your own instrument.
- No unaltered, pre-recorded music.
Software, hardware (electronic), mechanical, metal, wood, traditional acoustic, percussive/rhythmic, tonal/melodic, atonal/unpitched, live processing of other instrument sounds during the performance, group-built instruments, circuit bending, hacked acoustic instruments, electro-acoustic (pickups or contact mics), flesh and bone, amplified vegetables.
Performance Etiquette:
- Don't be continuously louder than everyone else.
- Be silent more than you play
- Play in just one pitch range-- high, middle, or low. Not all three (there are exceptions, depending on your instrument).
- Don't dominate the sound-space (unless directed to).
(Note: this project is about good vibes and good humor. No drama please, and let's not take ourselves too seriously :)
- Setup: TBD
- Rehearsal: TBD
- Report to stage: TBD
If you want to perform in the Noise Jam, contact firstname.lastname@example.com ASAP.

College Tips?

Anyone got some useful advice you can give a incoming college student in a week. Like how to do well in class, studying, or keeping a balanced lifestyle. Thanks anything is appreciated.
In the Golden State of Mind since '97.
If you're going away to college, here's an important one:
DON'T PARTY TO THE POINT WHERE IT EFFECTS SCHOOL. My first semester in Chico was ugly. I would drink on school nights, not get enough sleep, think that 'a little coffee in the morning would get me awake'... things like that. You learn very quickly that early classes are Satan in disguise. That's another one: don't take a 7:00 class because (who are you kidding?) you're never gonna go to it. Seriously. Another one is not to have the parties at your house. Going out to parties is cool (like I said, as long as it doesn't screw with your studies), but why the hell would you wanna be the one that throws the party? It cost you money. Your shiit might get stolen. There WILL be puke somewhere in the house. And you'll find that the kids that party without you don't often stick around with the big ass garbage bags to help clean up. But this rule, for the most part, isn't for incoming freshman... cause you'll probably dorm your first semester, right? Anyway, hopes this helps. Good luck, wherever you're going. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
yep im dorming.
UCSB is for sure known as a pretty legit party school. so thats the only thing im trying to not get too indulged in. well i got an 8:00 class, which isn't the best timing. But i'm sure it wont be that bad if i can grab breakfast and coffee. Last edited by kfresh on Sun Sep 17, 2006 8:27 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Second that! migya make the ring fall on ya |
Try to hang with the right crowd as well! Here in Perth, in my School at least, the other students were grown up and noone was a trouble maker but in the sates, so I've heard, there exists the odd group of priks to avoid. Just great to avoid trouble, all the time, not just at school.
Have a great time, without fukin yourself mentally too much and educationally. It only happens once though and you then go to work, have a family and it never is the same again. Still a good life but differently, not in a partying, noone else dependant on you, carefree way! migya make the ring fall on ya |
can't give you any tips really. i'm on my last year in high school so i'll be preparing to apply. depending on how my football year goes, that'll decide on what college i'll want to go to. washington for basketball, ucla, usc, or cal for football. we've had scouts come down to our games as of lately so thats why i included those big time colleges.
anyone got any tips for this last year in high school? |
^ last year of high school was awesome. just make sure your GPA doesn't take a dip. besides that, enjoy your time in high school - most of your high school friends won't be going to the same college as you. and all that **** about 'keeping in touch' is pure bullshit.
as far as college goes. go out and meet as many people as you can. i mean, go out of your way and do it. do things that you normally don't do. anything short of making out with dudes and other gay stuff. but the more you open up, the more friends you'll make, and the more connections you'll have. in college, you live or die (not really) by your 'connects' so it's really important. also, be on the look out for the breezies. you gotta make your move quick because other dudes will surely swoop up 'your woman,' especially in santa barbara... if and when you get your girl, don't get attached. that goes without say. you gotta be single, play the field. innocently hook up and move the **** on. (wrap it up and don't eat. seriously, you'll thank me later). if you run into rory davis, be sure to chew the fat with him. he's a cool cat. knows his san francisco giants and his a big fan. matt allen is a prick. if you see him, punch him in the face and say it was from drfrank. if you manage to knock him down and he's on the floor, give him a People's Elbow, call him a jabroni, and also tell him its from drfrank. as far as studies go - your first term (quarter, whatever) shouldnt be a problem. put it the time. i prefer going to the library and putting in the time there, because its easier to focus on your work. if you get study partners, that also helps. and, it builds up your.... you guessed it - connections. that's all i got for ya. if you wanna know anything else, just holler. P.S. #32 is right though, dont host the parties. leave that for desperate losers who want attention. |
don't let your grades suffer but you have to hangout and party with the people you know right now because it is tru that you don't see each other much after high school - Sad but true! My last year of high school, we hangout every Friday and Saturday and most Thursdays as well but calmed things down in exam time (1 week before and a few more days if needed). Gotta keep things in perspective (grades) but you must live that time and have fun because it doesn't come back! migya make the ring fall on ya |
very informative and much appreciated! yeah definitely, i always hear about making connections in college, whatever i do make more and more connections. Love the women advice, gotta wrap it up and dont eat! Surely will keep that in mind when im out partyin in SB. In terms of grades, how difficult do ya believe it is to attain a good, solid GPA? [3.0 or above] And what can i do to most effectively achieve solid grades at the college level? Any studying tips in college that might prove to be life-saving? thanks again drfrank and everyone else for the help. In the Golden State of Mind since '97.
there is a correlation between grades and time spent in class paying attention and studying. but that's nothing you didnt know already. i would suggest you attend class on a daily basis. i know that sounds corny, but trust me, there will be a day when you're hung over or you want to bail and kick it on the beach instead of going to class and listening to a herb talk about psychology. but whatever the professor goes over in class, will most likely appear on the midterm/final. your professor will hand out a syllabus with dates and readings that you should do prior to coming to class. i know its really hard to keep up with all those reading, but try you best. you'll recognize terms like "lysosome" and "smooth ER" which makes it easier to study later on.
repetion is good. writing things out over and over again is how i study and remember data. i dont really have a quick remedy for ya, bro. you gotta put in time if you want to succeed. but it also depends on the classes your taking. what's your course load looking like? a 3.0 GPA should not be hard to get. at all. just to drop some more names... Michelle LeQuire, Natalie Davis, Aron Alexander... refer to facebook if you wish. MAN, I SHOULD OF ATTENDED UCSB!!!! |
i got Asian American Studies 1, Chem 1A, and Calculus for Social Sciences.
Yeah with just 3 classes, hopefully i am able to ease myself into the new college lifestyle. and not get overworked right off the bat i got the morning 8oclock ones too, which means im bout to be a coffee addict very soon. hahaha where'd ya go for college frank? In the Golden State of Mind since '97.
yeah, i think thats a manageable workload. 8 am classes should not be a problem. make sure you're in bed by midnight or 1 and you should be straight.
i'm still in school right now. i'm currently at holy names university which is in oakland. hopefully i can transfer to samuel merritt college because of their partnership. at merritt, i plan on getting a bachelor's in science. i've never attended a big school, but i've probably spent 4-6 weeks with friends at uc santa cruz, ucla, u of oregon, san diego state and some midwest schools, so i know the ropes. oh yea, if you want to be a true santa barbara gaucho, its never to early to start thinking of a halloween costume. they do it BIG down there. oh, and do us a favor, when you go out and party on the 31st of october, bring a camera and post pictures. real candid ****, if you know what i mean. |
What in? What major migya make the ring fall on ya |

by Tara W. Stylish and super-compact, the Bose® Computer MusicMonitor® speakers continue the company's tradition of creating high-quality sound from gear that can fit into small spaces. Enjoy high-impact sound from your computer or laptop with this compact system, or connect it to your iPod® or iPad® to bring movies, music, and even Angry Birds™ sound effects to life. The two-speaker system employs proprietary Bose technology to produce a wide, clear soundstage from very small speakers. You'll hear crisp, accurate highs and mids, and rich bass, and you'll still have plenty of desktop space for working. Setup is extremely simple, too — one proprietary cable connects the speakers to each other, another connects to your source, and the AC power cord plugs into a wall outlet. Use buttons on the side of one speaker or the included remote to adjust volume. From the review Bose Computer MusicMonitor speakers "The speakers are so small that they'd be great for a portable-but-high-quality music system. I'd travel with them because the speakers would be easy to pack in a bag or suitcase, and they'd be perfect to set up in a hotel room with my laptop or iPad®. I'd even be tempted to connect them to the TV in the hotel room for better sound playback there, too."

How to blue tooth these Bose speakers Written By DLL, Massachusetts on Sunday, April 05, 2015 I use these as computer speakers. They sound great and are worth the money as they are small and easy to place anywhere. The disadvantage is they are not blue tooth. Buy a Tivoli model one blue tooth radio radio and plug these into the record out jack. The speakers are blue tooth now and still in stereo still as plugged into the Tivoli Model one Blue tooth radio. The radio is a tuner so turn the volume down or use the headphone jack and use that output as a variable gain. The variable gain is the Bose speakers volume on the speakers when connected to the record out jack. The Tivoli radio is a blue tooth mono speaker when played alone. It is a stereo receiver through the output jacks for powered speakers. The Tivoli radio sounds as good as the Bose but it is mono sound alone as a speaker,I like to listen both ways. Most of all I am free to use my computer with out having my stereo Bose speakers directly plugged in. The Tivoli Pal radio works nicely as well but it is portable and costs more than the model one. Pros: These Bose are the best computer speakers I have found. Very open and rich in sound and balanced. Cons: Not blue tooth speakers. Tivoli Radio BT does a nice job making these blue tooth so you have the advantage of computer mobility. The Tivoli is a very highly rated product as an AM/FM blue tooth radio on its own merits It is sold by Crutchfield.
Great Speakers Written By M35G35, Ohio on Monday, January 05, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are fantastic speakers. The first day that I had them I had the volume 3/4's the way up and it was so loud that I had to back them down. As for the sound, just great. Well worth it to me. The speakers have a small foot print which helps save space on my desk. Plus, they are not very tall so the speakers don't stick out. Highly recommend. Pros: Great sound Well built Remote Space savings - smallish Cons: Heavy for small speakers
Powerful Sound from such small speakers Written By Michael J., Howardsville, VA on Tuesday, November 25, 2014 Just got a new Dell All-In-One 2350 and the speakers are horrible so I searched and discovered these Bose units. I was reluctant to jump in on a set of speakers I hadn't heard but the reviews and stylish design with nifty remote, I decided to jump in. I wanted speakers that looked good, fit the visual theme of the PC (stainless steel/metal) and sounded good. In spite of their rather modest size they really pump out some impressive sound. They are pricey but they really do compliment the PC and the build quality is first class as always with Bose. I'm happy with my decision in choosing these Bose speakers. Pros: Very stylish - top quality - compliment my PC perfectly. Big sound - crisp & clear. Cons: Other than a somewhat steep price, no real demerits here.
Bose Computer Speaker Written By Naveen, Sugar Land TX on Saturday, January 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent Design and Sound Quality from Bose!
A huge volume in a small box Written By PK, South Salem, NY on Thursday, October 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced my very good and ancient Microsoft 3 piece USB (80) speakers with this Bose speakers for number of reasons: a) Better sound quality (and I am not disappointed at all) and smaller foot print, and again I am not disappointed at all. I mainly listen to classic and New Age music and I really like the sound quality. The price is high, but I believe it is worth it. I don't miss the subwoofer that I previously had with my Microsoft Speakers. Pros: Superb sound quality, small footprint. No hassle connection Cons: The speakers are connected to speaker outlet of a pc/laptop. As such, the volume control of the computer does not control the volume on speaker (directly). One needs to separately adjust the sound volume by controls (or remote) of the speakers. With USB connection (at least MS Speaker 80 did that) you could adjust the sound volume by one control, on your PC or on the speaker. If you have a laptop that you move around, that can cause unexpected very loud sound for you, be careful.
Bose Computer MusicMonitor Written By KC, Eldersburg, MD on Sunday, September 01, 2013 Presently, there is nothing better for desk top speakers. Pros: Sounds good on my Apple Laptop and also on my TV. Best Christmas gift so far. Cons: None
Speakers Written By Chris from Annapolis, 21140 on Friday, August 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Enough said Pros: Sounds great in the man cave. Cons: None at all.
BOSE AIDS MY HEARING AIDS Written By Tony, Whidbey Island, WA on Thursday, August 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought these speakers for TV viewing. I wear hearing aids and even though they are state-of-the-art and expensive, I was having a very difficult time with word recognition in the audio coming from our flat screen speakers. My wife suggested I take an old pair of computer speakers (inexpensive / came bundled with a past desktop PC) we had in the closet and put them by my chair. Because of their size they had to live on the small tables to my right and left. Relatively speaking the difference was stunning. It was a great improvement but there was still much lacking. The new Bose speakers are tiny (basically cubes) compared to the old ones I was using and fit perfectly on the wide oak arms of my favorite mission chair. They have a slight upward cant and aim directly at my hearing aids. Now to the sound... WOW !!! My word recognition is way up there now and I'm really enjoying the music coming from out HD viewing. High frequency to real bass, it's all there. These speakers are superb and worth every cent. You get what you pay for and Bose delivered! Pros: Great sound Cons: None
Bose Computer Music Monitor Written By Rob P, Moyie Springs, ID on Wednesday, June 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Overall, for its size, this is a pretty good compact system, for utilizing digital music files from a computer, ( I've pared mine with a MacBook Pro 13" laptop ). There are other computer music monitor speakers , some the same size, a few smaller, and a few a little larger, but none seem to approach the sound quality that these Bose nits have as their own unique capability. Altho they do seem to lack a little base, what can one expect, form such small speakers, without a dedicated separate powered subwoofer? Pros: Match the finish of the MacBook pro series laptop computers as if they were made to pair with them. Best sounding speakers of their relative size. So, small they could be hauled along with your laptop! Cons: Not as much bass as a separate powered subwoofer, but better than anyone else's small computer speakers, by far!
Bose® Computer MusicMonitor® Written By SharonB, Oberlin, OH on Saturday, May 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Perfect size, sound and performance. Very satisfied.
Fantastic Sound Written By CG, Baltimore, MD on Monday, October 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Is it FIOS. WOW. I have been visiting Crutchfield site and I kept putting off buying these computer speakers. I have a very tight budget, but I decided to treat myself to a early birthday gift. I was so amaze with the clarity and loundness of these speakers. I am not going to waste your time amy further. If you have terrible sound like me when you are listening to your music from your computer I suggest to you to go for it. Again the sound is superb. Pros: Setup was very easy. Cons: I wish it was battery operated but I'm fine with the way these speakers were made.
WoW!! LOUD SOUND!! Written By JimmyBlue, WW on Monday, September 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These little speakers are just what the doctor order for producing a nice loud quality sound from such a small speaker. Pros: Small, Quality sound and plenty of it. Cons: N/A
Great quality! Written By Wilfred, San Juan, PR on Friday, August 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Elegant compact speakers with excellent rich sound to go with my MacBook Pro Retina. Pros: Excellent rich sound quality. Compact. Portable. Cons: No tone control.
Awesome!! Written By SEG, Richmond, vA on Tuesday, July 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Incredible...exactly what I was looking for. I was in need of some speakers to connect to my new laptop. I tried the Bose Companion 2--thought the sound had too much bass. Moved to the Companion 20s--they sounded great, but were way too large for the space I had. Finally purchased the MusicMonitors from Crutchfield and they fit and sound perfect. They are small enough that I can take them on trips to listen to music or watch movies. If you are on the fence regarding these speakers. Don't be.
Bose Monitors Written By DHB IL, IL on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound from such a small package. I hooked them to the mac and playing tunes is awesome. Pros: Great sound and small package. Cons: None
4.75 out of 5 Written By Eric, Fort Campbell, KY on Monday, December 05, 2011 I bought these about a year and a half ago, I had high hopes for them as they were a bit pricey ($399 at that time). I was surprised by the build qualty, they're heavier than they look. The sound quality is outstanding for their size. The sound is a lot like the Bose SoundDock with a bit more refinement. They're great, however, there are a couple minor things to keep in mind. First, the auxilary cord is silver plated, for the price you would expect at least a gold plated quality cable. Second, there's no tonal controls on the remote, just volume, but that's not a bad thing as they dont really need any fine tuning. Pros: Great Bose product, high quality, big sound for their size. Cons: The price. Although the new price seems to be more fair.
