This blog is about new paperless reading materials like downloadable audio books, ebooks, and online magazines, made available to you through the Appleton Public Library. I plan to provide helpful tips on using these new products, along with reviews of audio books, music on cd, and movies on DVD and Blu-ray. The library is changing as rapidly as your access to media and the Internet. We want to keep on top of the trends and bring you information and entertainment in a way that fits your life today. -Beth
New Features for Holds in OverdriveTue, Aug 26, 2014 New features have been added to the Overdrive holds process. You now have the ability to suspend holds temporarily. You are also able to automate checkouts on holds in order to avoid losing out on an item due to the 3 day availability limit. Suspending Holds Since it is impossible to predict accurately when a hold will become available, suspension will come in handy for those who don't want to miss out on an item or be overwhelmed by too much reading or listening material at one time. As the hold is suspended for a certain amount of time, your position will continue to advance through the waiting list, but the hold will not be filled. After that amount of time ends, the title will continue to advance until the hold becomes available. If you happen to advance to the first position in the waiting list while the hold is suspended, the system will skip ahead to fill the hold for the next user in line. You will remain in the first position until the suspension ends. Automatic Checkout At the time you place a hold, the option to 'auto-checkout' the title when it becomes available can be set. Currently the choice defaults to auto-checkout. If you choose this option, you will receive a notification your title is available confirming that it has been checked out and can be found on their account bookshelf. If you opt out of auto-checkout, you will experience the previous notification process, which involves a 3 day window of opportunity to check out the available hold. *Screen shots and the basis of this update courtesy of WiLS |
OneClickdigital's Newsworthy eAudio AppFri, Aug 22, 2014 There is exciting news for the library's audiobook fans. OneClickdigital has released a new eAudio app. With enhancements, the upgrade should appeal to previous and new OneClickdigital users, alike. Once an account is created through our OneClickdigital webpage, audiobooks can be checked out, downloaded, and enjoyed within the app. The new app will prompt you to enter your username and password, which are not your library barcode and pin number. but are created especially for OneClickdigital. If, as a previous user, you have forgotten this information, you can visit our OneClickdigital webpage to reset and update your account information. This is a great opportunity to give OneClickdigital audiobooks a whirl, or in some cases, another whirl. Here are a couple tips for a smoother setup. When you are ready to download the app, search for OneClickdigital in your app store and, if given a choice, choose the eAudio Player, not the eReader app. Also, as you are entering your information into the newly installed app, use Outagamie Waupaca Library System – Owlsnet as the name of your library. Once you start typing, the dropdown option should appear. Happy listening! |
Kill a What? Kill a Watt.Tue, Jun 24, 2014 Do you have a vampire lurking inside your home? Chances are you do. Electricity is being wasted even while your appliances are turned off. Could it be that your appliances are not as efficient as you once thought? There is a way to find out about your household energy consumption. For some time now, the library has made meters available that measure electric consumption in the home. We have recently replaced these meters with brand new ones. We now offer a meter called Kill a Watt. The loan period is still 7 days. To use, unplug your device, plug the watt meter into the socket, and plug your device into the meter. Further instructions are included. The meter will allow you to estimate usage and cost over the course of a day, a week, a month, or a year. I encourage you to take advantage of this equipment for use in your own home. Vanish the energy-sucking appliances that are silently draining your wallet. Stop by the reference desk, and ask for a Kill a Watt. |

I wish I brought my lappy to work today. I am reservedly optimistic about this release. But finally getting away from the vesa driver I've been using for the past week will be great.
Okay, first results:
Renaming the old ebuild (8.40.7) is enough (you have to rename the corresponding patches folder inside files/, too), the driver works with xorg 7.3 (xorg-server 1.4) and with kernel 2.6.23 (using the patches). I am running on x86, so amd64 users might have problems with the patch.
could you post it, please...Just downloaded.. hacking up an ebuild right now..
RPM build errors:
File not found by glob: /tmp/ATI-fglrx-8.42.3-1-22698-aljosa/tmp/ATI-fglrx-8.42.3-1.f7-root-aljosa/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri/*
Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.D22622
What should I do to build it on Fedora 7 x64?

yes, easily, and Compiz Fusion running in all of its glory
I been waiting for this for at least a year. Yahhh
How long before it shows up in the Ubuntu repository?

The true cuckquean will be a willing participant in the sex act between the husband and the third part female and may be subjected to humiliation and degraging sexual acts by both husband and partner.
Hilary Clinton is the best example of the cuckquean.

A female cuckold. A woman who's husband or boyfriend commits adultery. A woman who enjoys being humiliated by her husband or boyfriend's sex with other women.
Katie was such a cuckquean. Her boyfriend brought home some chick from the bar to fuck. They forced her to sit in the corner and watch, and then clean them both up while calling her dirty, humiliating names. Katie loved it.

According to Kate Spade, the "Three-Day Rule" applies to sending a
thank-you note. I'm always guilty of breaking this rule, but I found
that carrying around a "note pack" in my purse has helped! Develop an
"attitude of gratitude" and pass it on! A "note pack" is a great gift
for girlfriends, teachers, sister-in-laws, newlyweds, newborn babies, or
new neighbors… anyone who loves to correspond (or maybe needs the
"hint" that it is time to start sending "thank-yous"!)
Each note card set includes:
-20 matching return address labels
-20 white envelopes (color options available!)

Motocrossboard stand-on light motorcycles now available for preorder
Article Summary
Late last year we ran a story on the MXB Shocker Motocrossboard, an electric-powered two-wheel vehicle from Performance Concepts Inc. (PCI) described as a cross between a snowboard and a dirtbike. At that time the company had intended a limited release of the 2011 MXB Shocker with prices starting at US$2,999 but in the wake of widespread media interest the Motocrossboard's inventor and PCI CEO, Andy Keel, decided against taking orders, choosing instead to focus on further product development and design. The extra R & D has resulted in a lighter and cheaper 2012 MXB Shocker that is now ready for sale alongside three new models.

Yes, should be one of the original NIN WAV files. Found in git.
Is there a fixed sound file?
Yes, should be one of the original NIN WAV files. Found in git.
I assume <Description>time lame -h audio.wav audio.mp3 (45.0MB)</Description> is no longer accurate. Also, making a tarball is not necessary. Just gzip it, or even use FLAC for increased compression (since FLAC gets compiled anyway).

You should credit Nine Inch Nails with the proper license mention in LICENSE or something. Btw, an IRC channel to talk about that kind of stuff would be nice. FreeNode seems appropriate. http://freenode.net/
If you look at the new file that's downloaded, they are credited in a file dedicated to it. Though does it need to be mentioned in the PTS LICENSE file since it's necessarily not being downloaded every time and not a critical part? But it is indeed mentioned when you download it.
Oh no, the new WAV file is the fake 24-bit/96 kHz version that is going to be fixed: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/...9&#entry564079
Please use the 16-bit/44.1kHz copy: like I said, audio encoders are best tuned for CD-DA content, and that's what most people deal with on a day-to-day basis. If you want a ~100MB file, just join two songs together.
I'm in #phoronix on irc.freenode.net if you want to chat about it.
The correct license URL is http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/, its title "Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0", and http://creativecommons.org/wired doesn't have anything to do with it.
Is the new copy of it available yet?

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

LA hopes Kershaw can continue march to divison title
Giants looking for Bumgarner to slow down red-hot Dodgers
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly has tried to keep things in perspective for his club as they inch closer and closer to the postseason. The team's magic number to win the National League West is five, which they could clinch as early as Sunday.
That would mean the Dodgers would have the opportunity to do it against the Giants, their National League West rival.
"No, I honestly don't think it would make it any sweeter," Mattingly said. "We're just looking to get where we want to go. I know the Giants-Dodger thing sounds good. But we just want to put ourselves in position. I don't think there's any extra incentive there."
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he's not going to get caught up in whether they can prevent Los Angeles from clinching during the series.
San Francisco first baseman Brandon Belt would definitely like to stop the Dodgers from clinching during the series.
"You never like to see the other team celebrate on the field," said Belt.
Before the two clubs can reach that scenario, they'll face each other on Friday at Dodger Stadium in what will be quite a pitchers' duel. The matchup pits San Francisco left-hander Madison Bumgarner against Los Angeles southpaw Clayton Kershaw.
While Bumgarner (11-9, 2.82 ERA) is winless in his last seven starts, he's tossed quality starts in five of them. He's also gone 17 straight starts allowing three earned runs or fewer.
In his previous outing against the D-backs, Bumgarner struck out nine and allowed just four hits in six innings, but did not factor into the decision.
He'll have some tough competition in Kershaw, who leads the Majors with a 1.92 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 216 innings pitched in his quest for the NL Cy Young Award. He also leads the NL with 208 strikeouts.
The left-hander took a no-decision in his last start against the Reds, allowing two runs on four hits in seven innings. Those runs came on two homers by Jay Bruce.
Unbelievable in four starts against the Giants this season, he is 3-0 with a minuscule 1.13 ERA.
Giants: Gaudin to throw simulated game
• Right-hander Chad Gaudin will throw another simulated game on Friday. It's Gaudin's hope, along with the team's, that things will go smoothly and allow him to be reinstated from the disabled list in time to pitch before the end of the season.
"Hopefully, all goes well and we'd be able to activate him a couple of days after that," said Bochy.
Gaudin threw the equivalent of two innings in a simulated game Monday, but the Giants determined another simulated game would help to sharpen his repertoire.
Dodgers: Hanley exits game
• Shortstop Hanley Ramirez left Thursday night's game against the Giants with mild left hamstring tightness.
Nick Punto replaced Ramirez at shortstop at the beginning of the seventh inning.
"I think he's OK. He gets tight during the games and he always says he's fine. We couldn't take the risk right there with him. He wanted to stay in the game. But we got to the point where I just couldn't take that chance," Mattingly said. "It seems like the last couple of days he's been saying the same thing and coming in the next day saying he feels fine. As the game goes, it keeps popping back. He's kind of begging me to keep playing there, but at that point I just couldn't do it. We're not going to take any chances."
Worth noting
• San Francisco is 28-43 on the road this season, the fifth-lowest road winning percentage among NL teams.
• Kershaw is 11-4 with a 1.32 ERA against the Giants, with three shutouts in 21 games (20 starts). That ERA is the lowest all-time against the Giants franchise among pitchers with 75 or more innings pitched.

Box Carriage
Location: A31 - Hogs Back, Guildford bound. 1 mile Northeast of Tongham junction Type: Unknown Ghost Type Date / Time: 08 January 2007, 22:40h, and 1960s (around 03:00h) Further Comments: En route home in 2007, a driver watched a horse drawn box carriage cross the road around 100 metres in front of him. The witness reported that he could not make out too many details as it was raining hard, though he was able to see a dim lantern towards the front of the carriage. As the driver reached the spot where he had seen the vehicle pass, he realised there was no side road where the coach and horses could have crossed. Another witness in the 1960s spotted a female figure with long hair, wearing a white dress, standing by the roadside. The witness stopped to see if she was lost or needed a lift, but she had vanished. Mentioning the encounter to a work colleague the following day, the colleague described the figure which was encountered and said the area was haunted.
Red Bus
Location: A324 - Road heading towards Pirbright Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: Circa 1995 Further Comments: Driving towards Pirbright in a convertible, this witness passed an old fashioned bus as it headed in the opposite direction. However, no sound came from the bus, and there was no smell of exhaust or wind turbulence generated as their paths crossed. The driver of the convertible also realised that his headlights did not reflect off the bus, which he later identified as 1920's Dennis J Type of the Aldershot and District bus company.
Night Coach
Location: Ash - Ash Rectory Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: 1938 Further Comments: The rector wrote that he had been awoken by the sounds of galloping, and opened his eyes just in time to see a phantom coach and a team of horses pass through his bedroom.

Old Man in Green
Location: Ash Green - Ash Manor Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: 1930s Further Comments: This figure that appeared in one of the bedrooms looked real, though when a witness tried to grab him, he passed through the figure.

Location: Bagshot - Two miles past Junction 3, heading towards London Type: UFO Date / Time: January 1985 Further Comments: Watched for between five and eight minutes, this saucer shaped craft had 'fifty pence piece type edges'.

Major Peter Labelliere
Location: Box Hill - General area Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: Unknown Further Comments: The Major requested that he be buried upside down near the summit of the hill.

A large rock located in the North Downs is still stained red with the bloody of the Shag's victims.
Crashing Car
Location: Burpham - A3 Type: Post- Mortem Manifestation Date / Time: December 2002 Further Comments: Police called to the scene where several motorists had watched a car crash off the road discovered not a fresh accident, but one that had occurred five months previous. The car was in a ditch, making it impossible to see from the road, and the skeletal remains of the driver were recovered.
Former Maids
Location: Burstow - Smallfield Place Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: Unknown Further Comments: The building is a magnet for female ghosts. A woman appears from a wall in the dining room, while another dressed in blue drifts about in the drawing room.

Eight Men A-Leaping
Location: Caterham - Area around the A22 Type: Other Date / Time: 28 July 1963 Further Comments: Several motorists reported eight figures dressed in black cloaks or cowls running and leaping around, heading towards the dual carriageway. The witnesses said that they moved strangely and silently.

Heavy Person
Location: Chertsey - The George public house Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: Late twentieth century Further Comments: This entity, normally blamed for moving furnishings around, was felt by a couple of overnight guests as it sat on the end of their bed.
Headless Monk
Location: Chertsey - Thorpe Park Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: February 2011 Further Comments: A water ride at the park was moved after staff reported encountering a headless monk amongst other paranormal phenomenon. The foundations of the ride were said to have intruded on an ancient burial site. The park has been accused of holding a publicity stunt, having used another ghost story two years previous to promote its 'Saw' ride.
Faceless Rider
Location: Chilworth - Between Rices Corner and Percy Arms Type: Unknown Ghost Type Date / Time: 1960 Further Comments: While returning from work in the early hours of the morning, a cyclist became aware of another man on a bike a short distance behind him. The second rider finally caught up to the cyclist, who called out when he realised the man who had just overtaken him had no lights on. The figure on the second bike turned his head, and the witness realised the rider had no face, just a blurry area.
Field Marshal Lord Ligonier
Location: Cobham - A3 near town Type: Haunting Manifestation Date / Time: 27 November 1965 Further Comments: The musical group Peter Bs reported encountering a ghostly figure while driving along this stretch of road.

The PC-BSD project has finally come out with their stable PC-BSD 8.0 release that is derived from FreeBSD 8.0 but with much desktop-oriented love and its friendlier installer and package management system.
Most ugliest Dolphin screenshot EVER.
800.600 virtual machine
The desktop icons' text is not exactly readable, black text on black?
How did they manage to make Dolphin look like something from Gnome!
I'm not exactly sure why anyone would want to run a *BSD on his desktop? Linux has more Hardware and Software support, and still has all the advantages of a *NIX OS.
Anyway, if I _had_ to use a BSD, it would probably be this one. KDE is a huge plus, even if it's as butt-ugly as this one.
BTW on the PC-BSD's site it says that 3D-acceleration is only supported on Intel and nVidia GPUs. I thought radeon had been ported to FreeBSD as well, so why don't they support ATi-cards?
Shrink icons to 66percent. I do it at 1600x900. No way I'd not shrink 1024x768 or 800x600 down to 50 percent.
radeon,yes. drm, not so much. Does anyone know how far they are?I thought radeon had been ported to FreeBSD as well, so why don't they support ATi-cards?

Rated 5 out of 5�by Texas T Great Product!
The D-Man has been very useful and very easy to assemble. You can adjust it to fit any age. If you want it for younger age groups, just take out the middle pole and there you have it! If you want it for older age groups, the D-Man extends to what would likely be the tallest defender your team will face! It's been a wonderful product!

Rated 2 out of 5�by mpsr my son loved it but it doesn't hold up to heat
my son was so excited to get this product. He set it up immediately and it worked great. When he finished with it we put it against the house to protect it. It got really hot one day and it melted. So now instead of a tall d-man we have one the is bent over and completely non functional. I called the company the next day and the immediately sent out a new one. We will keep this one out of the sun when not in use.

This product is awesome it was just hard to put the pole in the base...

Rated 4 out of 5�by Jeremy.JJP I wish I had 5 more D-Men
I bought the SKLZ D-Man for my 6 year old's basketball team to use during practice. Although the D-Man is tall, nearly 6ft if I remember, you can take the lower portion off if needed - making it the perfect size. We use the D-Man for several drills, such as passing around or shooting over a defender, and it is an extremely useful training aid.
I would buy this product again and recommend it to anyone.

Great product, installation simple & quick, utilizing it as an extra body for basketball; frees up a coach to do something else.

Re: Tour Down Under 2013
Download the point to point map from the TdU website, head to any of the decent mapping sites, plop in the route, export the file as .gxp, and then upload to the Garmin. Easy. Or, do a Google search. That's how I've done it before.

Iron Man: New Robotic Exoskeleton Helps Paraplegics Walk
Jason Mick
October 31, 2012 3:30 PM
comment(s) - last by
Nov 1
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
New exoskeleton is the first to stimulate paralysis patients' muscles electrically, an effective therapy
stem cell therapies
could provide
a true "cure"
for paralysis in humans in decades to come, in the shorter term,
wearable robotics
could provide an effective stopgap therapy. Several industry and research groups have been developing
robotic "exoskeletons"
, which offer load-bearing walking motions. In able-bodied humans, the skeletons can
help workers carry heavier loads
without joint stress. But in paraplegics the promise is even greater -- the exoskeletons could
allow them to "walk" again
I. Building a Cheaper, Better Medical Exoskeleton
Currently, so-called
"rehabilitative" exoskeletons
are available to paraplegics, but they remain relatively expensive -- costing $140,000 USD or more. With that problem in mind, researchers at
Vanderbilt University
Center for Intelligent Mechatronics
have designed a new "minimalist" robotic rehabilitative exoskeleton, and are
working with
Parker Hannifin Corp. (
) to produce the device at a lower cost.
The device will compete with at least two other companies --
Argo Medical Technologies Ltd.
in Israel and
Ekso Bionics
in Berkeley, Calif. -- for an estimated market of 236,000 to 327,000 patients in the U.S. suffering from severe spinal injuries.
The system is pretty standard, complete with hip and knee joints, which are robotic motors powered by rechargeable batteries. Unlike more ambitious, but more expensive designs, the system is not capable of solely maintaining balance. Paraplegic users will use the suit (which straps on around the waist and over the shoulders) to walk, but they'll have to use crutches to help maintain balance.
Mechanical engineering
professor Michael Goldfarb
describes, "You can think of our exoskeleton as a Segway with legs. If the person wearing it leans forward, he moves forward. If he leans back and holds that position for a few seconds, he sits down. When he is sitting down, if he leans forward and holds that position for a few seconds, then he stands up."
Brian Shaffer, a paraplegic since 2010, tested the suit at a satellite facility in Nashville, Tenn. He recalls, "My kids have started calling me 'Ironman.' It's unbelievable to stand up again. It takes concentration to use it at first but, once you catch on, it's not that hard: The device does all the work. I don't expect that it will completely replace the wheelchair, but there are some situations, like walking your daughter down the aisle at her wedding or sitting in the bleachers watching your son play football, where it will be priceless."
II. Physical Therapy Success, Lays Groundwork for Home Use
An important note is that the device and its peers still are not geared for home use; they're targeted at a rehabilitative (think doctor's office) setting. But in terms of devices in that environment, the new exoskeleton appears very competitive.
The suit and similar models are not only liberating to the paralyzed; they can also cut down on serious health issues caused by sitting for prolonged periods in wheelchairs. It's light -- only 27 lb (versus the common weight of around 45 lb) -- and slim. The modular and minimalist design allows it to be folded up and transported on the back of a wheelchair.
The device also incorporates two other rehabilitative advances. First, it's capable of detecting users' muscle movements. That means in users with reduced capability, but not complete leg paralysis, the device can provide a less powerful amount of resistance. This "just enough" approach can help prevent joint damage in partially paralyzed individuals.
Vanderbilt's new exoskeleton is lighter than its rivals and bakes in new capabilities.
[Image Source: Vanderbilt/Parker Hannifin]
Second, the device claims to be the first exoskeleton to apply small electrical pulses to paralyzed muscles, causing them to contract and relax. This approach -- functional electrical stimulation (FES) -- has been shown to improve circulation, change bone density, and reduce muscle atrophy in victims of paralysis.
Clare Hartigan, a physical therapist at
Shepherd Center
, the medical center that helped test the device, did offer a warning for paraplegics that walking again wasn't as easy as they might hope -- it's a real workout. She states, "These new devices for walking are here and they are getting better and better. However, a person has to be physically fit to use them. They have to keep their weight below 220 pounds, develop adequate upper body strength to use a walker or forearm crutches and maintain flexibility in their shoulder, hip, knee and ankle joints ... which is not that easy when a person has relied on a wheelchair for months or even years."
Still, it's thrilling to watch iterative refinement of robotics exoskeletons for rehabilitation, a success that is almost surely a prelude to even more liberating exoskeletons for home use.
The suit design work was funded by a grant from the
National Institutes of Health
(NIH). Its other key contributors were research engineer
Don Truex
, graduate students Hugo Quintero, Spencer Murray and Kevin Ha, and
Ryan Farris
, a former student who now works for Parker Hannifin.

RE: Great, soon people won't need to walk
As a Carer for the old and frail and those with disabilities, I welcome this.
It's heart breaking when you see someone who is incredibly intelligent yet have something debilitating which prevents them from doing the most basic of tasks that we all take for granted.

About Me Getting Started
Just want to say that I like the sprayer.The shoulder strap part where you weave the strap thru ( small black plastic piece) to tighten straps.I am very disappointed with the very cheap quality of this part.Both of mine broke the first and only time I have used my sprayer.This piece needs a very serious upgrade.I would not waste my time replacing it with the same piece if you were to send me a replacement.I am very disappointed with the quality of the piece.I had to use a piece of wire to hold the straps together before I could use it for my first and only use and then I still could not adjust the straps.Unacceptable. I am just a homeowner,not professional use.

Responsible Gaming
Caesars Entertainment's Commitment to Responsible Gaming
Caesars Entertainment's commitment to responsible gaming led to the development of the industry's first-ever broadcast advertising campaign focused specifically on responsible gaming. Ads featuring CEO Gary Loveman explain the importance of responsible gaming and how responsible gaming is an important part of our Code of Commitment.
Taking a Leadership Position
Promoting responsible gaming is part of the heritage and culture of Caesars. It's the foundation of our Code of Commitment, which spells out the principles that govern the way we do business. Our company's long-standing and continuing commitment to responsible gaming is something we take great pride in. Caesars position on this issue is clear: we want everyone who gambles at our casinos to be there for the right reasons - to simply have fun. We believe that all entities involved in legal wagering have an obligation to promote responsible gaming and address underage gambling.
Caesars, then named Harrah's, pioneered the casino entertainment industry's first responsible gaming efforts over a decade ago when a group of employees formed a task force to study the issue of problem gambling. After months of research, the task force developed the industry's first initiative to help employees, guests, and the public understand the importance of responsible gaming and the prevention of underage gambling.
Caesars continues to be the casino industry's chief advocate for promoting responsible gaming. We have implemented two responsible gaming programs, Operation Bet Smart® and Project 21®, as well as an Unattended Children Policy.
Additionally, Caesars works with the National Council on Problem Gambling, Inc., its local councils, and other service agencies in our markets on a continuing basis to promote a better understanding of responsible gaming and underage gambling. In fact, we provided the initial funding to establish the National Council's twenty-four hour toll free helpline. We also support research on these issues through on-going financial contributions to the National Center for Responsible Gaming. Caesars launched the casino industry's first broadcast advertising campaign to promote responsible gaming and increase awareness of toll free helpline numbers. We were awarded the National Council's first corporate award, which recognized Caesars for its proactive efforts on responsible gaming. Caesars invites other members of the casino industry to join us in promoting responsible gaming.
Operation Bet Smart®
Operation Bet Smart®: Know When To Stop Before You Start® is a program designed to formally train employees about the importance of responsible gaming and the policies and procedures of Caesars responsible gaming programs. While we recognize our employees are not social service counselors, Caesars feels that encouraging employee awareness puts employees at a comfort level, helps them understand the company's position on the issue, and supplies them with valuable information and direction to potentially help others.
At all our casinos, we provide responsible gaming signage on the casino floor and back-of-house so that employees always know where to refer customers requesting assistance. We also provide responsible gaming information in brochures, on hold messages, and Caesars responsible specific media campaign, as well as including helpline phone numbers on all marketing collateral, player cards, and hotel directories. These communication efforts serve to provide our customers an unobtrusive vehicle for obtaining more information about responsible gaming and seeking assistance.
Project 21® - We Care. We Card.®
This initiative teaches casino employees, minors, parents, and guardians about the consequences of gambling under the legal age. Casinos are not for our kids. We do not hesitate to uphold the laws concerning the legal gambling age in each state.
For more than a decade, Caesars has been the chief advocate of Project 21®, now an industry-wide program that encompasses employee training and public awareness about underage gambling. Caesars Entertainment is committed to keeping minors off the casino floor. Project 21® is now a licensed program for any casino in our industry to use, and any casino can contribute to Project 21® scholarship efforts. We are very proud that the success of Project 21®has let it outside our door and into the halls of high schools across the U.S.
Other Project 21® efforts include the front and back-of-house signage, detailed employee training on cues for identifying minors, and the on-going creation of materials to keep employees and players aware. Like Operation Bet Smart®, Project 21® also includes the creation of materials for public education, such as TV public service announcements.
All Caesars employees are trained to card individuals who appear to be below the age of 30, as well as ways to detect potentially invalid identification. If a minor is trying to gamble under false identification, our security officers will intervene and may contact outside law enforcement. We want all of our customers to have an enjoyable time at our properties, but we will not condone breaking the law. We Care. We Card.® And we will take action.
Looking Out for Kids
Another educational campaign and policy that Caesars has undertaken concerns the presence of unattended children on property. Our Unattended Children Policy is a communication effort that encourages parents not to leave children unattended at our properties, and trains employees on the proper approach to use upon discovering an unattended child. Seeking to urge parents not to leave their children without adult supervision, every Caesars casino has standard procedures to promote parental responsibility and protect the safety of children and minors. Parents are informed through signage and brochures about our policies and employees are asked to keep an eye out and call security for any child that has been left unattended.
Other Resources
For self-help materials for problem gamblers, we encourage you to download Harvard Medical School's "Gambling - Your First Step To Change" toolkit.
For additional information about problem gambling, visit the National Council on Problem Gambling's website. If you or someone you know might have a gambling problem, call the National Council on Problem Gambling's toll-free helpline at 1-800-522-4700.

I purchased this item as a gift for My Mom for Christmas and was very well pleased with my selection . Excellent Picture Quality And Sound. Great Size!! I will reccommend this Product Again and Again.
Needed a larger TV for the bedroom. This product was the right size. It works well and is as described. There are two additional issues to consider. First, the cable system remote does not seem to be compatible with the TV - so we have to use the TV remote for power and sound, and the cable remote to control channels. Second, the speakers seem to be in the back -and so the sound is not terrific. Am looking into getting some speakers to resolve this ....
Its ok for what I needed in the kids room... however wouldn't repurchase for any other really sound/speakers stink
Would recommend for quality, ease of assembly, and picture. Needs sound bar for tinny volume and speakers in rear.
While it's ok, that's all it is . The sound isn't very good at all. We put ours on the treadmill. It's fine for that, just won't want it any place where you would watch it much.
This product even though it's the first time I use this brand is great
It has the same thing as the image showed and the delivering was fast too .. I am really happy :)

Michael: I feel you somehow complaining about Intel's DDX driver. Is there something really broken in this driver or some important feature missing?
From my POI they already have introduced all needed features, fixed annoying bugs and don't have much more to do with this driver. But as I use ATI mostly, I may be missing something.
Could someone with Intel experience share some opinions, please?
