Carolyn H.TexasLove This Epilation SystemI ordered this epilator not knowing if it would hurt really bad or even work. It works great and is almost painless. Love it, love it, love it !!! Try it you'll like it !!!posted Aug 21, 2013Link to this post
Lamia M.United StatesHairDark BrownCurly HairThick or Coarse HairGreat Product But... Why Pay More When You Can Pay Less!this is great but costs significantly less at ulta, 69.99 when its not on sale for 49.99 and lets not forget coupon savings.. very disappointing because I was doing some shopping here and planned to buy this with other items but had to purchase it separately elsewhere.. super inconvenient. Even with a coupon it's still overpriced. Very surprising since Folica is always great with pricing..posted Nov 26, 2012Link to this post
LoriNot The Product In DescriptionThis product is described as including shaver attachment, but that is what is included with the Braun 5280 and the product shipped is the Braun 5180 (and if you look closely, the description page does say that it is Model No: SE5180). Regardless, the description was misleading and if I hadn't researched this product elsewhere, I may not have known the difference. I am returning the product without trying it, so I can't speak to its effectiveness. I may not order from Folica again, I am not please with the untrustworthy descriptions and requirement to pay for return shipping on a misleading product.posted Sep 9, 2011Link to this post
KatHairDark BrownCurly HairGood AlternativeMinus one star because the little plastic guard broke within two months of using it. Not a big deal-you don't need it anyway.
For a good (well, better) first experience, follow these steps (in order):
-Shave the hairy areas one/two days before or trim them the day of.
Day of:
-Pop 2/3 Ibuprofen or similar pills!
-Shower with hot water beforehand!
-Dry skin thoroughly, and put your hair up (don't want it getting caught)
-Apply lotion (altho if u have sensitive skin you want to wait 20+ minutes)

LakshmiBeware: No Shaver HeadIt says everywhere in the description about the shaver head but the product doesn't ship with one. Maybe this is okay by you, but I was disappointed to get the shipment and find one attachment missing. Apparently the model folica stocks is 5180 that comes without the shaver head and the one from Braun that has it is 5280.
I used to like the convenience of the shaver head for a quick once-over on too-small-to-be-epilated hair with my former Philips Norelco.posted Aug 3, 2011Link to this post -
SarahHouston, TXOk...think Emjoi Is A Better BrandI've used this machine for about two weeks now. I have always used emjoi for over 10 years and I thought of trying another brand out so after reading many reviews on how good the braun machine is I thought of giving it a try. Perhaps my expectations were to high but for some reason I still like emjoi better. I personally felt that emjoi did a better initial cleaning compared to the braun. The first week I got it I did one leg with the braun and the other with my emjoi. One thing I did notice was that the leg I did with braun had less hair come out compared to the emjoi which was nice. For me time is an essence and I felt that the braun just took up too much time plus having to go over areas more than once to make sure I got a good 'clean'.
I think most if not all epilator machines do the same job. You just need to think about what is a priority for you. For me I like to get a quick clean and not have to go over the same place over and over again. If for some miracle I have the time I would use the braun.
Oh and one more thing...I did prefer the braun by far for the bikini area compared to my emjoi. It's a bit smaller plus taking off the cover that is on the epilator itself made it easier to work with 'down there'.

Kristina S.Atlanta, GAThe Best Thing Ever!This is my second epilator. The previous was Braun too. I absolutely love this one, much, much better than the first. Yes, if it's your first epilator, you may have to adjust to the pain, but the result is worth it! This one has it all: the light, long cord, cleaning and even the shaving equipment. It removes so much hair at ones, it's unbelievable; and lasts for more than 3 weeks (when usually I had to shave ones a day).
I assure you, this product is worth of investment.

EllaMy Experience With EpilatorsWhat is interesting, very first epilators, like 10 years ago worked better than all new ones. I use them for many years and can tell you that Phillips epilator which was 10 years ago manufacutured was the best in my life. Now it is dead completely and I cannot find any equal quality in any brend, even in Phillips. SAD... This exact device in Braun brend is good. Hair does not grow about 3 weeks. If manufacturers would give me one device from each company, I would tell you guys, which is the best. 1. Hair does not grow in long time 2. Epilation smooth and not painful 3. Device itself must be durable and serve without problems. 4. Rechargable is a good option. 5. Inexpensive.posted Apr 29, 2010Link to this post
NikkiMakes It Even More PainfulI'm not a novice when it comes to epilators having had my last one for over 10 years. It was a braun model and finally the cord broke on it so I decided to go with a braun again. This model does not stand up to the previous model I had. It takes too many passes for the tweezers to pick up the hairs resulting in even more pain. I wouldn't recommend this model to anyone.posted Mar 2, 2010Link to this post

Awesome German hard rock band, been around since '80s actually. Roughly translates to, "The Dead Pants". Compared to Rammstein or Oomph, they are a bit lighter but still hold their own and are quite popular. You can see their T-shirts and such once in awhile on popular band members here in the U.S. A lot of videos, check them out.

Second-year coach will lean on experience
Josh LeBrun has high hopes for his Lady Cardinal basketball team as he heads into his second season as head coach at St. Mary."Last year was a lot of me trying to figure out the girls, and the girls trying to figure me out," LeBrun said.Now that there's some familiarity between players and coach, LeBrun and his 15-girl roster expect to improve upon last year's regular season mark of 10-10 using experience, grit and dedication to out match their opponents."I think we have a lot of experience coming back," LeBrun said.St. Mary brings back three starters, including senior Kelly Michel. Last season she earned all-conference honors. Junior Allie Mullaney and senior Anna Wolles are the other two returning starters who will bring valuable experience to this year's squad. LeBrun said the girls won't play too many teams with less size than they have, so defense will have to be a strong suit if the Lady Cardinals are to find success. "We're going to look to put a lot of pressure on defensively," he said. "We don't have a lot of height so we'll look to create a lot of turnovers to create easy baskets for our team."St. Mary will be challenged right away. They hosted Garretson, a team that got the best of them last season, Tuesday night, and travel to highly ranked DeSmet Thursday. "We have some tough competition the first week to find out who were are," LeBrun said. "I think it's a good thing to challenge us and find out what kind of team we have right away."

All-County Jazz Night April 27
Plumas Arts is proud to host Plumas County's high school jazz bands at an All-County Jazz Night concert at the Town Hall Theatre Wednesday, April 27. The show begins at 7 p.m. and the public is cordially invited to be inspired and impressed by this showcase of young musicians. Admission donations at the door will be used to support school music programs.
The concert will feature presentations by the high school jazz bands directed by Austin King from Chester, Tanner Johns for Quincy and Jim Norman for Greenville.
"This is what the Town Hall Theatre was built for: to showcase the talents of our youth and the hard work of their instructors," says Roxanne Valladao, director of Plumas Arts. "Music educators are one of the hardest working groups of people anywhere. In their lifetimes they instruct and inspire hundreds of students to live lives filled with music and song. What an extraordinary gift to society that is — these wonderful people deserve all the praise that we can heap upon them. It is an honor to be able to host this event — we are happy to see it happen once again this year and hope to do so every year."
Music instructors say that the students really enjoy this performance because it is the only time that the bands for all the schools perform together without being in competition with each other. They also enjoy playing on a real stage with lights.
The All-County Jazz Concert is part of the Plumas Arts annual April Student Arts Month Celebration, which is funded by grants from the California Arts Council's Arts in Education grant matched by annual funds from the Plumas County Office of Education.
Student Art Month is an annual culminating event of the ongoing art education programming in local schools coordinated by Plumas Arts. This year the program was also funded by a California Arts Council (CAC) Art in the Schools grant, which is funded though the sale of the California Arts license plate. The award of the CAC grant was made possible by a match from the Plumas County Office of Education that has funded Plumas Arts' arts education programs since 1996.
Plumas Arts has worked with the Plumas County Office of Education, school sites and PTA/PTO groups providing arts education programs to students in our schools since 1986. Individuals can help keep art in Plumas County schools as an essential part of a balanced education by becoming a Plumas Arts Children's Art Enthusiast. A donation of $150 provides a hands-on classroom art workshop. Donations of $300 or more can help to provide an art assembly program to an entire school. Contact Jane Steidel at Plumas Arts, 283-3402 or firstname.lastname@example.com, for more information.

The Dell 3007WFP 30-inch LCD - and then there were two...
January 15, 2006 At long last, there's a competitor to Apple's 30-inch Cinema HD Display – Dell released its Widescreen UltraSharp 3007WFP flat-panel LCD monitor at the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this month, effectively lowering the price of one of these delectable, productivity-enhancing beasties from US$2499 to US$2199. Both screens require a dual link DVI video card to drive them, and neither of them are all that cheap, but consider the Return On Investment offered by a larger screen – Apple's research shows productivity is linked to the amount of screen real-estate while Microsoft's research shows that two screens offer more productivity than one screen, so why not supercharge your productivity with two of these screens. It's a simple business decision - paying US$2500 for a permanent 10% productivity increase or US$5000 for better than 20% is a no brainer for any professional who spends more than a few hours a day in front of a workstation.

All of us here love to write at great length about the RBE and the vast spectrum of issues surrounding what we should be doing to help get us there faster. But when it comes to convincing the wider public, we have a common problem: we can easily leave people behind or alienate them with our seemingly radical ideals that challenge the boundaries of the paradigm box to which they cling as a comfort zone.
In our world today, Love is a word that is used more commonly than any other. It is thought of to the point of obsession by nearly all mankind, yet how many people truly understand what love is? When I look around the world I see some acts done with love, but my overwhelming sense is that most acts are done out of insecurity, fear and selfishness. How can it be that as a society we talk of nothing but love yet still fail to act in a loving way to one another? We know deep down to our core that love exists and that we have experienced it.
Internet es el medio de comunicación más poderoso que ha creado el ser humano, y uno de los que mayor impacto social han producido. Es una herramienta capaz de unir las sociedades del mundo y posibilitar el acceso al conocimiento.
Compartir el arte y el conocimiento es un poderoso medio de evolución cultural. Está en nuestra naturaleza crecer compartiendo en el entorno apropiado.
The Ghost in the Machine phrase was invented by philosopher Gilbert Ryle as a way to describe René Descartes' mind-body dualism. In his book The Concept of Mind Ryle ridiculed the belief that the psyche somehow functions independent of the physical body -according to Decartes and all dualists thereafter, the mind is not subject to mechanical laws, it is not even in space, hence the immaterial soul governing the mechanistic body, the Ghost in the Machine.
Internet is the most powerful means of communication that human beings have created, and one of those that has had more social impact. It is an instrument capable of uniting the world's societies and providing access to knowledge.
Sharing art and knowledge is a powerful means of cultural evolution. It is in our nature to grow by sharing in an appropriate environment.
Ok, (sorry about the language) but, fuck it! I'm going to propose something very major. At a time like this, there really isn't much to lose. In a radio address not long ago, PJ was doing some Q & A and one of the questions was would he ever run for president? He said he would not, but that he would support someone running on the RBE platform (and I realize Scott Keller is already trying something similar). He said essentially, that he would be curious to see how far it would, what kind of reaction it would get. Well this is what I want to do – Basically run for office.

RADEON_HYPERZ = 1Edit: first make sure you have the latest git code, as there are known bugs otherwise.
set the env var RADEON_HYPERZ and run piglit with parameters: -c 0
r500 hardware defaults on, r300/r400 need the environment variable set.
To double check it's on, watch stdout of the GL application for "radeon: Acquired Hyper-Z." And apparently the hardware only supports 1 app at a time with HyperZ, so make sure you aren't running more than 1. (compositors for desktop graphics are blacklisted).
It was amazing!! Thanks. WAW!!
I'm not a gammer. I just need to enable this for unity or firefox. Is there a workaround for this?

Phoronix: Linksys Reviving The WRT54G Router In 802.11AC Form
Many Phoronix readers likely recall the glory years of the open-source-friendly Linksys WRT54G router that for some is still a great device and there's still the thriving OpenWRT community. Good news out of CES today is that Linksys is letting the WRT54G live-on in the form of the 802.11ac-based WRT1900AC...
Way too expensive.
Also the old Linksys was owned by Cicso.
Nowadays it is owned by Belkin which I trust much less.
This should be about the WRT54GL? The WRT54GL is the router with Linux based firmware that can be easily used with DD/Open WRT (i use one right now with DD-WRT). Some of the G/GS variants arent that OSS friendly AFAIK.
For $300 I'd build a computer and stick a bunch of network adapters in it.
"the open-source-friendly Linksys WRT54G"? You must be joking. As mentioned above the WRT54GL was the one that made it at least a bit opensource-friendly. The required Broadcom chip driver was still closed source and using it required running a 2.4x kernel. There were reverse enigeneering efforts like brcm47xx but in the time a ran OpenWRT on the WRT54GL 2.6 based brcm47xx has never been stable enough to be usable. It was a great device per specs, but the lack of opensource-friendlyness was actually the main reason why I replaced mines with some Buffalo WZRsomething later.
On some other news page the wording in regards to OpenWRT-compatibility was "they are going to port OpenWRT to it" which sounds rather awkward, given OpenWRT uses a Linux kernel with a minimum possible amount of patches. So, does Linux now run on hat new thing out of the box, or will OpenWRT devs be required to maintain a package for some binary driver blob sh*t yet again and Linksys will just work with them to get things (resp: the mess) started?
They miss the point of the WRT54G that was taking cheap common hardware and doing nice things with it.
For that kind of money, just glue a 802.11ac router to an arm board or something...
Recall the glory years? *looks to the left* Yeah, my WRT54GL is running as fine as ever, thank you very much. That said, for the longest time I didn't know projects like DD-WRT existed. Then I found out they do, and now I'm running DD-WRT on it (and enjoying features like LAN computer names much easier to type in "ssh user@dragon" than "ssh email@example.com" and hope the IP hasn't changed since last time). And now that I do, I won't buy any routers without DD-WRT support.Many Phoronix readers likely recall the glory years of the open-source-friendly Linksys WRT54G

Audacity 1.3: Project saving and recovery
Starting in version 1.3.2, Audacity automatically saves snapshots of your current project constantly. If Audacity ever crashes, or if your whole computer crashes or suddenly loses power, the next time you start Audacity it will notify you that it found an unsaved project, and prompt you to recover it.
One common source of confusion with Audacity is that when you open or import an uncompressed file (e.g. WAV or AIFF), Audacity by default saves time and memory by only linking to the file, not copying it. But if you move, rename or delete the original file, your Audacity project will not work anymore. Starting with version 1.3.2, Audacity prompts the first time you save your project, and on exiting, if the project depends on other audio files. If there is a dependency, Audacity gives you the option of copying the required files into the project, making it self-contained.

YouTube now serving videos to 1 billion people
Google tool manages online data after death April 14, 2013
The milestone was announced Wednesday at a splashy event in Santa Monica that was aimed at advertisers and featured performances from some of the website's biggest stars, such as the bands CDZA and Monsters Calling Home. It marks another step in YouTube's evolution from a quirky startup launched in 2005 to one of the most influential forces in today's media landscape.
YouTube crossed the 1 billion threshold five months after Facebook Inc. said its online social network had reached that figure for the first time. YouTube first hit 800 million monthly visitors in October 2011.
The vast audience has given YouTube's owner, Google Inc., another lucrative channel for selling online ads beyond its dominant Internet search engine.
Google bought YouTube for $1.76 billion in 2006 when the video site had an estimated 50 million users worldwide.
Since late 2011, YouTube has refocused its site to prioritize watching along distinct channels of its creators. Such channels were seen as better allowing advertisers to focus on certain genres of content like beauty or music.
In 2012, it seeded 96 channels with around $100 million in funding to help them accelerate that growth, often partnering with big-name Hollywood producers and directors that had made it big in movies or TV but not on the Internet, including "CSI" creator Anthony Zuiker. Later, YouTube vowed to spend another $200 million marketing the channels to boost viewers.
But Wednesday's event focused largely on those who had succeeded on YouTube before the channel-funding strategy was in place, such as Michelle Phan, a YouTuber who has been giving viewers makeup tips since 2006.
Robert Kyncl, vice president and global head of content partnerships, acknowledged to reporters after the event that the channel funding strategy had not worked as well as hoped.
When asked if the channel funding investment had paid off, Kyncl said, "Every year we reserve the right to get smarter."
He said that while YouTube was committed to continuing to invest in content, he said more of such investment in the future would go to those channels that had already proven they can be successful at building an audience on their own.
"What we're looking for is the acceleration of those who are figuring out how to retail their content," he said.

A welcome change to my beloved ATH 700 pro MK2's
Pros: A more detailed sound than I'm used to, but still with lots of tuneful bass
Cons: Flimsy feeling build quality, especially the silver colored plastic bits
This is my first ever review, so please excuse my amateurish fumbling attempts at describing sound. I will do my best, but don't expect the work of a seasoned professional!
The Denon's are my 4th set of "good" headphones, but the only set I have used consistently since I started getting into head fi are my beloved Audio Technica ATH 700 Pro MK2's.
I went looking for a new set primarily because the Audio Technica cans are still too uncomfortable due to clamping even after a lot of use, and even after replacing the stock pads with M50 ones. I primarily use them at work, and that means many straight hours of listening (I'm a programmer), so comfort is a big concern for me.
The other motivating factor was that after listening to a few other models recently (notably the Sony MD1R's that I nearly bought when I saw them on sale in an airport), I have started to realise that the 700 Pro's are a little... um... samey? I lack the vocabulary for describing sound that most reviewers here have. What I'm trying to say is that they seem to smooth everything out a bit. Everything sounds kind of melded and creamy as if the top has been cropped off a bit. The bass is what attracted me to them, and what has kept me faithful for so long, but like I said... samey. Different albums and genres all seem to sound similar through them it seems to me - like an instrument I guess - whatever music you play on it, it still sounds like that instrument.
Anyway, I digress. This is a review of the Denon D1100's, not the 700s.
Test gear:
Denon AH-D110's (obviously) - brand new with zero burn in.
Audio Technica ATH 700 Pro MK2's - for direct comparison.
Cowon C2.
Fiio E11 amp.
When I first unpacked them, I had a bit of a sinking feeling to be honest. I read a lot of reviews (especially on Amazon) complaining about the build quality, or more accurately the quality of the materials. They feel flimsy and brittle, especially the silver coloured plastic bits, and I am certain they would not stand up to being sat on or dropped from any appreciable height.
Another major downside for me is that the cable is not removable. The cable is (usually, although I'm not sure in this case) the weakest & most vulnerable part, and should therefore always be easily replaceable on all but the cheapest cans in my opinion.
Compared to the Audio Technica's (OK, they're designed for DJ's but still), the build quality on the Denon's does not fill me with confidence that they will last.
Brilliant. They are light, the pads are soft & sensibly sized, and the grip is firm without clamping.
Sound insulation for me seems very good, and initial experiments suggest they don't leak much.
I do not have a whole lot of reference or experience here, so once again I'm going to have to resort to a direct comparison with the 700 Pro's.
The Denon's have bags of bass! It's not quite as punchy and aggressive as the teeth rattling capabilities of the 700's, but every bit as tuneful - possibly even more so! Amplified, they really start to thump! The RZA's Grits turned up moves an incredible amount of air in those pads - even to the point of being quite overwhelming, almost unpleasant even. Actually, they seem a little more bass sensitive than the 700s - you don't need to work them as hard to really get the drivers traveling. I can see I am going to need to dial it back a bit on the EQ if I want to turn these up when listening to Hip Hop.
Where they really shine (at least to my novice ears) is in the separation. Highs are much clearer, and the mids are much more detailed. I can hear things that I now realise were there with the 700's too, but muted so that I never really noticed them before. Everything sounds much crisper, lighter, airier, and more playful. I am listening to Larry Carlton's All Blues as I write these words, and the interplay between the different instruments is absolutely joyful. The music seems to have much much more three dimensionality to it... not only is each instrument more clearly distinguishable, but also it's position in the soundstage.
Rock is a similar story - A Perfect Circle's Blue delivers in a big way through the 1100's. The vocals are clear and commanding, the drums kick confidently, the bass massages my earlobes reassuringly, and the guitars are ... just so THERE. I don't know how else to say it, but hopefully you have some idea what I mean.
Even older and accordingly lower quality recordings like Led Zep's Lemon Song sound great through these cans. They don't seem to refine the sound or take away any of the rawness. Perhaps the guitar solo in the right channel around the 1:40 mark was a bit TOO harsh and high, but that could be because I am used to the muted mid-y quality of the Technica's.
I got these headphones from Amazon UK for 60 quid (GBP) - at that price, I would definitely recommend them to any new head-fier who, like myself, is looking for a comfortable, fun and bass heavy listening experience. I'm looking forward to spending some more time with these things. They will be going to the office with me on Monday instead of the 700's, and I'll see then whether they are less fatiguing over a long listening session.

@UID313 I will match any contribution you make up to 50$ Time to put your money where your keyboard is
Phoronix: Crowd-Funding Mesa Driver Development?
While Canonical right now is attempting to raise millions of dollars for their Ubuntu Edge project, on a smaller scale would crowd-funding work for development of Mesa?..
@UID313 I will match any contribution you make up to 50$ Time to put your money where your keyboard is
There is ONE place where Xorg foundation (and mesa) lack cash...
Its Khronos membership. It would have little positive effect on OpenGL implementation (since at least one Intel dev do participate in ARB).
However Khronos membership also mean ROYALTY FREE IP license for every essential IP that do not have any alternative.
Here is more stuff on it:
So we crowd fund Xorg (mesa is not legal entity, right?) membership in Mesa. We crowd fund some legal expertise on what would we gain from it. And hopefully at the end of the day, we enjoy freedom to implement full OpenGL without fear of liability...
Could be interesting if this developer had more knowledge.
Now I feel that I personally could do the same job.
I'm not negative to the concept, it's very good if this gets
funded and actually gives something. The only thing I say
is that I'm not going to help it.
I'd help do it. I've helped GIMP crowdfunding and Ubuntu Edge's.
Here is a link to the inde-gogo campain... since it isn't linked to in the article.
Not exactly relevant, but I'd put $100-$200 towards work on bettering the OpenCL gallium work.

The earliest Brubeck records originally made in 1949 for Coronet, are still available on Fantasy, the label for which he recorded until 1954, when he was also heard on Columbia. After causing a local stir in San Francisco, his group rose swiftly to the top among modern jazz combos and was soon nationally known. His quartet toured on concert work and occasional night club dates and appeared at the Newport Jazz Festival in July 1958. The Quartet toured with great success in England, on the Continent, in Poland, and through the Middle East in 1958.
Brubeck died one day short of his 92nd birthday on December 5th 2012. On his death the Los Angeles Times noted that he "was one of Jazz's first pop stars," even though he was not always happy with his fame, uncomfortable, for example, that Time had featured him on the cover before it did so for Duke Ellington, saying, "It just bothered me". In The Daily Telegraph, music journalist Ivan Hewett wrote: "Brubeck didn't have the réclame of some jazz musicians who lead tragic lives. He didn't do drugs or drink. What he had was endless curiosity combined with stubbornness", adding "His work list is astonishing, including oratorios, musicals and concertos, as well as hundreds of jazz compositions. This quiet man of jazz was truly a marvel." In The Guardian, John Fordham said "Brubeck's real achievement was to blend European compositional ideas, very demanding rhythmic structures, jazz song-forms and improvisation in expressive and accessible ways. His son Chris told the Guardian "when I hear Chorale, it reminds me of the very best Aaron Copland, something like Appalachian Spring. There's a sort of American honesty to it." Robert Christgau dubbed Brubeck the "jazz hero of the rock and roll generation".
These two live sessions some five years apart capture perfectly the unique rapport which Desmond and Brubeck achieved during this historic collaboration.

Teheran faces Nationals with tensions still high
Braves rookie hit Harper, clearing benches in early-August start
The Braves may be atop the National League East with a 14 1/2-game lead on the Nationals, but that doesn't mean there has been a shortage of fireworks between the two clubs this season.
That's because it's included plenty of plunkings, ejections and overall bad blood.
With Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper hit three times in the past three meetings, Nats right-hander Stephen Strasburg returned the favor Saturday. He threw three straight wild pitches, two behind Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons, in the second inning and was ejected. Warnings had been issued to both benches when Strasburg hit Justin Upton in the first inning.
We'll see what happens in the series finale Sunday at Turner Field.
"It was whatever," said Braves outfielder Jason Heyward. "For us, it was like, 'If it happens, big deal. If not, big deal.' We're just playing baseball, competing and having fun. It's a part of the game, you just hope nobody gets hurt."
Much of this drama began because Braves right-hander Julio Teheran, who will face the Nationals for the first time since a benches-clearing shouting match on Aug. 6, hit Harper after the Nationals' All-Star blasted a towering home run. Teheran (9-6, 3.08 ERA) earned a win in that game, throwing six innings of one-run ball, but took a loss his last time out against the Phillies.
Meanwhile, Gio Gonzalez gets the nod for Washington. He pitched four scoreless innings Tuesday against the Giants before a rain delay and back discomfort shortened his outing.
Winless in his past five starts, the left-hander has been unsteady of late. While he's tossed two quality starts in the past month, Gonzalez also had a rough outing on July 31, when he allowed 10 runs on 11 hits in 3 1/3 innings against the Tigers.
In eight career starts against the Braves, Gonzalez is 2-5 with a 5.24 ERA.
Nationals: Jordan shut down with back strain
The Nationals placed right-hander Taylor Jordan on the 15-day disabled list with a lower back strain and recalled outfielder/first baseman Tyler Moore from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.
In his third stint with the Nationals, Moore is batting .164 with three home runs and 14 RBIs in 43 games. Moore worked with Triple-A hitting coach Troy Gingrich on being more selective after his most recent demotion.
"Troy told me to slow it down," Moore said. "The ball started slowing down. It felt back to normal."
Braves: Heyward producing in leadoff role
Since moving to the leadoff spot on July 27, Heyward is batting .375 (30-for-80) with 23 runs scored and 15 RBIs in 20 games. He has 12 multihit games in that span, with a .451 on-base percentage and .589 slugging percentage.
Heyward went 2-for-7 on Saturday with two home runs, his second and third long balls in the leadoff spot.
Worth noting
• Gonzalez will be facing Atlanta for the ninth time in 48 starts, which dates back to May 27, 2012.
• Upton has a team-high 11 game-winning RBIs this season, which is tied for sixth in the NL.

I believe he'll get over it
Phoronix: Linux 3.5-rc7 Kernel: Not Cool, Guys. Not Cool.
Linus Torvalds released the Linux 3.5-rc7 kernel on Saturday afternoon and he's not too happy about it...
I believe he'll get over it
everyone should start releasing giant patch bombs as late as possible to troll linus and give us some epic mailing list flamewars to read.
Up to 3.5rc6 suspend to disk worked with my netbook (atom n270, gme 945, 32 bit), 3.5rc7 broke it. Most likely too many intel gfx patches... stupid regressions.
Micheal, where is the link the ML. If you are gonna do news articles that are just Mailing list messages at least link to the message so we can see the responses.
Poor Linus...he's getting crapped on yet again or is he crapping on the devs for putting out huge patches?
I lol'ed at the discovery made in the talks of moving Microsofts hyper-v code out of staging, apparently they found the following constant:
#define HV_LINUX_GUEST_ID_HI 0xB16B00B5
I guess some guy at Microsoft hadn't been getting any for quite some time

Surface Pro Reviews: Excellent Performance, Gorgeous Screen, Poor Battery Life

Surface Pro is full of compromises
Microsoft's Surface RT hasn't exactly set the consumer tablet market ablaze since it was introduced late last year. According to IDC,
Microsoft only shipped about 900,000 Surface RT tablets
for Q4 2012 compared to 22.9 million for the iPad.
Despite a slow start with Surface RT, Microsoft is hoping for more success with its Surface Pro. Packing in a third generation Core i5 processor instead of the more limiting ARM-based processor its more svelte sibling, the Surface Pro can handle the vast Windows app library without breaking a sweat.
Even though Surface Pro
isn't due to launch until February 9
, reviews for the tablet went live tonight. Not surprisingly, reviewers loved the tablet's screen and its speedy Core i5 processor, but blasted the horrid battery life that puts it at the bottom of the pack.
The Surface Pro's 10.6", 1080p screen is a definite upgrade from the 1366x768 screen on the Surface RT. The reviewers seemed to be thoroughly impressed with its quality.
David Pierce/
The Verge
: The 10.6-inch, 1920 x 1080 panel on the Pro is gorgeous, maybe the best laptop screen I've ever seen. Blacks are deep and whites are bright (my MacBook Air's display looks comparatively yellowish now), and colors are both accurate and vibrant. Since it's 1080p, it also holds up to closer pixel-level scrutiny when you're holding the device nearer to your face in tablet mode.
But while the screen looks good, actual usability is a compromise between two extremes.
Tim Stevens/
: By default, the tablet is set to scale text to 150 percent its original size, making most (but not all) menus and buttons huge and reasonably finger-friendly. That's great when you're actually using your fingers, but it results in a lot of wasted space on the display when you're using a mouse. More troublingly, it made the text and icons in many apps appear rather blurry…
When running apps at 100 percent, the visuals are much cleaner, and those who want maximum screen real estate will be happiest here -- but in this view scrollbars and other on-screen controls are tricky to hit accurately with a finger. Interacting with the desktop without a mouse suddenly becomes a chore.
The Surface Pro packs in a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5-3317u processor, 4GB of RAM, Intel integrated graphics, and an SSD (64GB or 128GB). Compared to the ARM processor used in the Surface RT, the Core i5 simply blazes along in performance.
Joanna Stern/
ABC News
: The Surface Pro does a nice job running lots of apps simultaneously. Powered by a Core i5 processor, 4GB of RAM and the 64GB solid-state drive, the Pro is just as capable and fast as most laptops. Programs load quickly and, in contrast to the Surface RT, there's none of that lag or stuttering when switching apps or swiping them in from the left. It also resumes from sleep in seconds and boots in under 10 seconds.
David Pierce/The Verge
: In general, it runs remarkably smoothly. I consistently switch around between a dozen different apps, some streaming music or movies, and the Surface Pro never stumbled once in normal use — I was actually shocked at how quickly it would resume playing House of Cards on Netflix when I alt-tabbed my way back to the app. Where the Surface RT took forever to load anything, and stumbled its way through any kind of intensive task, the Pro simply flies.
Battery Life
When it comes to battery life, this is where the Surface Pro seemed to take the most criticism. The Surface Pro racked in anywhere from one-third to one-half the battery life of its Surface RT counterpart.
Michael Prospero/
Laptop Magazine
: Microsoft estimated that the battery life of the Surface Pro would be about half that of the Surface RT, and sadly, they were correct. On the LAPTOP Battery Test (Web surfing via Wi-Fi), the Pro lasted 4 hours and 37 minutes. That's about three hours less than the Surface RT (7:43), and about two-and-a-half hours less than the tablet average of 7:10.
Tim Stevens/Engadget
: On our standard Windows battery rundown test, in which we fix the display brightness and loop a video endlessly to exhaustion, the Surface Pro scored just three hours and 46 minutes, despite having a 42.5Wh battery -- a third larger than the 31.5Wh pack in the Surface RT. That's just more than a third of the nine hours and 36 minutes the Surface RT scored, well lower than the similarly specced W700 (which managed seven hours) and short of every touch-friendly Windows 8 device we've yet tested.
: If only the Surface Pro had excellent battery life. It doesn't. In our video-playback battery drain test, the Surface Pro lasted 4 hours and 31 minutes, regardless of whether the Type Cover was connected or not. That's not far off from some other high-powered 11- and 10-inch ultraportables, but it's a big step down the 6-hour mark on many ultrabooks. The Acer Iconia W700 lasted more than 7 hours despite having a similar processor.
By all accounts, the Surface Pro is a significant [second] step for Microsoft in the realm of tablet/convertible PCs. Performance is respectable, the screen is gorgeous (although legibility/usability could use some work), build quality/design is top notch, and it offers a decent allotment of ports/connectivity options. The overall weight/size, awkward typing positioning while on your lap, and the battery life will be big concerns, however, for many users. In summary, perhaps David Pierce of
The Verge
said it best:
Even a well-executed Surface still doesn't work for me, and I'd bet it doesn't work for most other people either. It's really tough to use on anything but a desk, and the wide, 16:9 aspect ratio pretty severely limits its usefulness as a tablet anyway. It's too big, too fat, and too reliant on its power cable to be a competitive tablet, and it's too immutable to do everything a laptop needs to do. In its quest to be both, the Surface is really neither. It's supposed to be freeing, but it just feels limiting.
We eagerly await Surface Pro

RE: I just want to run an MMO on it and sit on the couch
it could have come with windows XP and I wouldnt have cared...again the whole point is people want a tablet that they can install their existing x86 software.
I think the device is a great start, would like to see how it benches a bit more in the x86 side of the house.
screen, battery, SSD, an i5...idk why people thought it was going to weigh 1lb... its not made of paper and held together by kittens licking it...
we just came from 7+lb gaming laptop to around 2lbs...but nooooo that extra half lb is going to give everyone herpes.
(1 Hidden)
RE: I just want to run an MMO on it and sit on the couch
Windows 8 aside, yes people can install their x86 software but that leaves the question, what are you going to want to run on this machine? Tax software? Most everyone is used to their 15"+ screens and now we have this squished tiny 16:9 screen. Seriously, RT comes with office, you have a browser and apps to cover, rdp, vpn, vnc, ssh, and most all else. This device can't play any modern games so why is an i5 necessary, are people seriously going to be running photoshop on this?
Yes we
7 pound
laptops but this is not for gaming system (Intel 4000 GPU) nor are we living in the past. That 2 pound quote is without the keyboard, so be prepared to lug around that as well. This device hasn't even hit the market and its already showing its age.
$1000 + $155 keyboard for something that kind of sits in the middle between a good tablet and an ultra-portable laptop. Hard to swallow when it's lacking in resolution, battery life, weight, price, size and no LTE option compared to top tablets. On the laptop side, it doesn't include a keyboard in the price, tiny screen, can't use/rest on your lap with they keyboard, bad battery life and requires $50 adapters for hdmi/vga.
RE: I just want to run an MMO on it and sit on the couch
Your specs for a tablet and what you think a tablet should be is very different from what I want, obviously.
I want my tablet to be a touch screen extension of my desktop. That's not saying I should be able to do everything my desktop can on my tablet, but when I need to be in the living room with my family it would be nice if I could still get some work done or play a DECENT (not freaking angry birds) game. I want my tablet to do a much of my desktop stuff as I can get away with, and why shouldn't it be able to? Do we really need yet another screen to consume the freaking internet with? Yay, a portable Facebook computer! SCREW Facebook. Do I want adobe cs6, visual studio, Microsoft office, AutoCAD, Maya, VMware workstation, etc. on my tablet... hell yes I do!
Contrary to your opinion just because the device has a keyboard, doesn't mean it NEEDS a keyboard. My tablet has a keyboard too; it sits on my desk so when I get back into my office I can dock my tablet for more efficient use. Otherwise I just grab my tablet and walk around with it. If I'm going on a trip I'll throw the keyboard and a spare mouse in a backpack, simple enough. I don't have to lug it around with me everywhere.
My current tablet doesn't have LTE either and I don't miss it. LTE works well with phones because I can pull my phone out anywhere (due to its size and the fact that it resides on my waste via belt). I can be absolutely anywhere and pull my phone out and hit the net quickly. That would be nice for a tablet but tablets are by nature more cumbersome than phones and therefore less likely to be easily accessible when I'm not near Wi-Fi. Then there are the phone companies. When you have to pay as much as you do to share two measly GB through Verizon, I'm not interested! Besides, if I need internet that bad, tethering is trivial for me to accomplish.
As far as battery life is concerned, use the power profiles. Every windows system has them. Set one up for max battery and max performance. Max performance will probably give you somewhere around 4 hours and on full charge and max battery will give you somewhere around 8 even with windows 7! (I know, I've tested it!) That's the beauty of windows, if you don't need the power then nothing says you need to use it, but for that random time when you do it'll be there for you.
I'm not saying this is the perfect tablet or that it's something I would buy, but it is a decent start. $1k is a bit high for what they are offering and the adapter thing is a little bit annoying. Other than that, it's pretty solid.

My Bag
0My Favorites
0J Brand proves that the denim movement toward straight and skinny is hardly a trend. With an absolutely clean, anonymous back pocket and sophisticated lines, these jeans are already a classic set for the ages.
As per the reviewer up I really appreciate a detailed review myself so I'm also reviewing this the day of receiving. I am a size UK8, about 53kgs and 170cms tall. My current two pairs of jeans are a 25/26 (nudies) but after reading the reviews and because the small model was wearing a 27, I ordered a 27 also. My mistake as it turned out, as they gape at the back of the waist and are at least one size least too big. I would have been much better off with a 26, I could probably even squeeze into the 25 if I had to.However, If I pull the waist in at the back they are pretty flattering and sit at a great spot (just below the bellybutton). The super stretch means they're way more comfortable than stiff denim, and give you less lines around the waist after sitting. The length is a little odd, it's not quite long enough to tuck into my ankle boots, but is too short to go over the top, but I'm probably just not used to cropped jeans.Overall, I wish I'd gotten the 26, but still think they're great jeans. Because I'm an international customer and return postage is obscene, I'm planning on taking them to the tailors to see if the can nip in the waist for now, and will consider buying another smaller pair depending on how these wear and age.
Long time J Brand fan. The Maria HR line is fab. I own this cut in Starless and find the Starless fit to be flawless but find the Hewson cut to be flawed. I am 5'8" 125 lbs with 26 waist and 33 hips.I purchased the 26 in both. The legs are purrrrfekt in both but in Hewson the waist is one size too big.The waist in Starless is slimming and conforms perfectly but Hewson stretched out and makes my flat stomach look like I've got paunch. I do believe Hewson is .5 inches shorter in the rise vs Starless but otherwise the cuts are the same.Obviously a difference in fabric content or perhaps Hewson was cut on the bias. If I could do over again I'd size down to a 25 in Hewson.
Best pair of jeans I have ever bought! Sizing is perfect, hugs every curve and look fantastic. Love the higher waist, and they don't fall down when you bend over. I bought the 32,my usual size and I am unsure of whether I should have bought the 31 though as they are currently the perfect fit but scared they might stretch. Either way I don't care I've been looking for a pair of jeans like this since 2008.

THORNTON — Armed officers and worried parents rushed to a Denver-area high school as students hunkered down in closets and classrooms Friday after a report of a gunman near campus on the last day of class before summer vacation, but the high anxiety faded after a police search turned up nothing.
"We've pretty much searched the building," Thornton Police spokesman Matt Barnes said outside Thornton High School in the northern Denver suburbs. "We've not located anything."
No injuries were reported, and there were no reports of gunfire after the report of a man with a rifle.
Before the all clear, dozens of students left the school in single file, holding hands and led by police. They boarded school buses, and an officer was posted in each bus. Authorities took the students to a nearby bus park-and-ride lot and told parents to meet their children there.
Others huddled in classrooms and closets. Freshman Haley Johnson, 14, said she spent about 90 minutes in a supply closet that wasn't air conditioned, texting her mother and trying to go online to find out if there was a shooter.
Meanwhile sophomore Jesse Desourdy's history class locked the door after an alert went off, turned the lights out and gathered against a wall for about an hour. "I was going to ditch, too," he said. "I should have, but it was a pretty epic last day of school."
There were some tense moments before police gave the all clear.
"I'm freaking out," said Michelle Copeland, who was outside the school awaiting word on her 16-year-old son, Timothy Romero, a sophomore. "My knees are shaking. What if it's an automatic gun? Any gun, it doesn't matter."
She said Timothy texted her from gym class saying the school was on lockdown, and heavily armed police were inside.
Amy Irsik said she sped to the school, crying all the way, after her 17-year-old son David sent her a text saying the school was on lockdown after the report of an armed man. "I love you," the text ended.
Student Ezequiel Cordova said he left the building at the order of police as an automated message came over the public address system announcing a security problem.
Niejha Andersen, 14, said her 16-year-old sister Toni texted her from inside the school shortly before noon that she was hiding under her desk. Toni is a junior at the school while Niejha is home-schooled.
The school has 2,000 students and 130 staff members.
The incident rattled Thornton, a city of 122,000 about 20 miles north of Columbine High School in the southwest Denver suburbs. Law enforcement was criticized for not moving quickly enough after the 1999 attack there in which two teenagers killed 12 students and a teacher before killing themselves.
After Columbine, police across the country developed tactics for responding officers to aggressively rush onto scenes to stop any suspected gunman.

NORMAN - More than three dozen stuffed animals are ready to be handed out to the littlest patients at Norman Regional's HealthPlex hospital. The stuffed animals were donated by Jeremy George a freshman at Norman High School. The 14 year old has spent his fair share of time being treated at Norman Regional so when he got the opportunity to give back, that's just what he did. "Our preacher at church asked for volunteers and I was chosen as one," said Jeremy. "I opened an envelope and it had $50 inside and a note." The note told Jeremy to pay it forward. Jeremy thought long and hard about how he could stretch the money to impact the maximum amount of people possible. He remembered a time during one of his multiple hospital stays when he was given a teddy bear, back in second grade. "It made me feel good," Jeremy described. "I hope the kids getting these animals will feel the comfort that I felt when I got my stuffed animal." "It's nice that someone is thinking of us when they pay it forward," said manager of the Women's and Children's unit Mari Newcomer. "It is wonderful that he remembered what one little stuffed animal can do for a child to comfort them in a scary situation. Kids like Jeremy are why we as nurses come to work every day." The animals will be given to adolescent patients receiving treatment at the HealthPlex's Women's and Children's unit. |

17th Annual Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival
March 31-April 6, 2014 Ithaca New York USA
2014 Festival Theme:
DISSONANCE http://www.ithaca.edu/fleff
Dissonance: Clash. Tension. Disharmony. Disequilibrium. Contradiction. Restlessness. Irresolution. Imbalance.
Neither noise nor cacophony, dissonance pairs together the incompatible with results that surprise, offend, invite, disturb and excite, spurring action and creativity.
Dissonance sparks and ignites.
Think of dissonance as the endless clashing of notes and chords in musical dissonance, of ideas in cognitive dissonance, of systems of life in cultural dissonance, of words in poetic dissonance.
