WHERE WILL YOUR STUDENT THRIVE? Guide for Parents 1 "I am absolutely delighted with the experience St. Edward's provided for my two daughters. I'm thrilled that they were encouraged to think critically, to question and think independently, and to exercise their creativity.

How will my student benefit from a liberal arts education? A. As technology constantly transforms the way we work, many of the jobs students will enter when they graduate don't yet exist. Our academically challenging liberal arts education cultivates well-rounded, lifelong skills that are vital to any career field, now and in the future. Students learn to analyze and solve problems; write, speak and present effectively; work independently and with teams; and understand the world from different points of view — outcomes highly valued by employers in today's rapidly changing workplace.

ACHIEVING SUCCESS. At St. Edward's, your student will be challenged — through rigorous coursework, opportunities for graduate-level research and hands-on internships. Students here are encouraged to take risks, question everything and surpass expectations (even their own). Perhaps your student will conduct ground-breaking human genome research at MD Anderson Cancer Center, or develop an award-winning application for a SXSWedu codeathon competition, or channel a passion for writing into a prestigious summer internship with National Instruments, or design and implement an art therapy project for patients at Children's Medical Center in Dallas. Here, students go beyond the classroom to put their learning into practice and pursue what they love. "Jack has gained confidence and become aware of differing views. He is figuring out his place in the world. St. Edward's has allowed him to grow and explore his possibilities. He's appreciated the small classes and easy access to professors." – Matt Ikard, father of Jack Ikard '16 1 3 parents ask Q. How do research and internship opportunities at St. Edward's compare to other schools? A. Our students engage in high caliber research typically reserved for graduate students, and they publish and present their work at regional and national conferences. And 88% of our students complete one or more internships before graduation — well above the national average of 63% (2013 National Association of Colleges and Employers Student Survey). Our location in Austin, Texas — the top metro economy and job-growth area in the U.S. — attracts companies from all over the world, opening many doors to students for research, internships, volunteer positions and jobs. Industry leaders such as Whole Foods Market, Dell, Cirrus Logic, Sweet Leaf Tea, Freescale Semiconductor and Seaton Healthcare Family are headquartered in Austin, and Apple, Facebook and Google have offices here. Q. What are your post-graduation outcomes? 2 3 1 2 Jack Ikard '16 developed a system that converts waste from a fish tank into fertilizer for a garden above the tank. His product, AquaSprouts, is being sold by local stores. Leslie Nix '14 won an award at the Texas Academy of Science meeting for her undergraduate research. Now she's a Molecular Biophysics PhD student at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. Jacob Mooney '13 networked with professionals as an intern with South by Southwest® Interactive Festival's Gaming Expo and secured a full-time job offer before graduation. A. 94% of our students are actively engaged in jobs, graduate or professional school, internships, fellowships, military service, volunteering and other activities within nine months of graduation.

IT'S FAST AND EASY AT STEDWARDS.EDU/CALCULATOR 5 parents ask Q. What's the most important thing to consider in choosing the right college? A. Tracy Manier, dean of Admission at St. Edward's, offers this valuable advice to students: "College is an incubator for the things in life that really matter. Look for a school that aligns well with your interests, that will allow you to make good friends and pursue your passions, and that will give you the confidence to make the most of your opportunities after college. If you find such a place, it will be worth the investment." Hear more insights from Tracy about making the best college choice. See her article and video at stedwards.edu/parents/collegesearch.

St. Edward's emphasizes international awareness in every aspect of education — preparing students to develop cross-cultural understanding and become socially responsible members of our global community. Your student could spend a week studying international business in Japan, a semester in Jordan exploring Arabic culture and language, or a whole year taking in the literary history of England — or join a service trip to help children in need in Uganda.

Angers is a medium-sized city in the heart of the Loire Valley, about a 90-minute train ride from Paris. "St. Edward's has afforded Ethan life-changing international experiences.

St. Edward's is here to help you and provide answers. We encourage your family to begin learning about the financial aid process early. The more you know about qualifying for scholarships and aid, the better you can plan. And the sooner you can meet with a college financial aid counselor, the clearer picture you'll have of your financial aid status and costs over your student's 4-year college career. TOP 10 FINANCIAL AID QUESTIONS To help you get started, we've compiled answers to important questions parents ask us about financial aid and a useful glossary of terms. View them at stedwards.edu/top10questions. Here are just a few Q&As you'll find on our website. parents ask Q. What's the first step in applying for student financial aid? A. Everyone should start by completing and submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Colleges use the FAFSA to determine eligibility for federal, state and college-sponsored financial aid, including grants, loans and work-study programs. The FAFSA is available online beginning Jan.1 of your student's senior year at fafsa.ed.gov. Q. How do we begin filing a FAFSA? A. First, get your 4-digit PIN at pin.ed.gov. Your PIN allows you to complete and sign your FAFSA electronically. Students and parents must apply for separate PINs. See our step-by-step details and a quick video on filing the FAFSA at bit.ly/SEU_FAFSA. Q. Do colleges have deadlines for their best financial aid offers? A. Yes, and they vary. So be sure to check with each school. At St. Edward's, Feb. 1 is our priority deadline to apply for admission, and March 1 is our priority deadline to file the FAFSA. Meeting these deadlines (the earlier the better) ensures your student will receive our most comprehensive financial aid package. Q. Will the same financial aid my student receives as a freshman be awarded for the following three years? A. This is an important question to ask each school. At St. Edward's, your student's first year of financial aid normally becomes his or her base offer for subsequent years. However, your student must file a new FAFSA each year and meet certain academic requirements to continue receiving funding.

Nice trade bomb Tom and I can't wait to see the other end of the destruction Josh! It great seeing the pipe guys smack around the cigar guys and vice versa.
This is a discussion on Another trade gone BOOM!!! within the Pipe & Tobacco Bombs forums, part of the Pipe Smokers Forums category; Over the past couple of weeks I had been giving some serious consideration to getting a pipe, then the other ...
Over the past couple of weeks I had been giving some serious consideration to getting a pipe, then the other day TommyTree asked me if i would consider a "cigars for pipe" trade. Seeing this as an excellent opportunity, not only to try another slope, about which i was curious, but also to offer a nudge down the cigar slope to someone else, I gladly accepted. The agreement was my choice of 1 of 3 pipes, all of approximately the same value, for what I considered a fair trade in cigars. I informed Tom of my choice, PM'ed my address, prepared my trade, and waited for my pipe to land... Saturday afternoon the good ol' USPS delivered my package from Tommy, a bubble mailer envelope, which was significantly larger than necessary for any of the pipes offered in the trade...
Not only did Tom send the pipe, but also a nice sampler of pipe tobaccos for me to try!

Never trust a woman's tears or a dog's limp.
Careful Tommy. Josh will retaliate and blow you up. On the other hand, Tommy does have more pipes and tobacco in his home than any shop could dream of having. Could be a great battle if this escalates!
I may be foolish but at least I do it with enthusiasim!
Come on, guys. I have a community group of mailboxes at the end of the street. If you blow mine up, you blow all the neighbors' up too! And they're old! Checking the mail is the one bright spot of their day!

nice - Tommy and Jeff have been helping me out with lots of advice. Glad to see another noob in the pipe world Josh -LOL. Cant wait to compare notes in chat
I ain't ! I'm just a little large for my size!
Terrific bomb there. That's a really cool looking pipe! The baccy looks good too. I recently tried the HH Mature Virgina for the first time (thanks to freestoke) and was pleasantly surprised by it.

HENNEPIN AVENUE — One of the summer's hottest restaurant openings is right around the corner. Crave's new Minneapolis location is scheduled to open on May 19 in the former Palomino space in LaSalle Plaza. However, one of the restaurant's main attractions, the rooftop patio, won't open until June 4.
The Downtown location is the sixth restaurant in the Crave chain, which opened its first location at Edina's Galleria in 2007. Since then, locations have been opened at The Mall of America and the Shops at West End in St. Louis Park, as well as locations in Omaha and Coral Gables, Florida.
"We weren't looking for a space downtown, but we got a call from the landlord looking for a tenant," says Crave Founder and CEO Kam Talebi. "But once we saw the space, I felt this location was poised well for the Crave concept, especially given the vibrancy of what's happening Downtown."
The LaSalle Plaza location features two private dining rooms that bring the interior space to around 13,000 square feet. The rooftop patio will add 7,000 square feet of outside dining and feature its own kitchen, bar and menu items.
The Bullfrog opens on Hennepin
HENNEPIN AVENUE — The Bullfrog, a new venture from Bulldog Lowertown owners Matt Lokowich and Jeff Kaster, opened April 28.
The bar focuses on Cajun-style food and pilsners and lagers from around the world.
While the space maintains some of the elements of the previous tenant, such as polished concrete floors, Lokowich and Kaster have worked to restore some of the building's dormant historic features, including a set of windows on the north side from which much of Downtown is visible. Additional vintage touches have been imported from other historic Minneapolis buildings, such as vintage art deco-style lights salvaged from the Foshay Tower.
Republic coming to Seven Corners in May
WEST BANK — The Seven Corners neighborhood by the University of Minnesota has a somewhat rowdy, fraternity-centric reputation, but one longstanding bar is about to get a civilized makeover.
The owners of Preston's Urban Pub have sold the business to Matty O'Reilly of the Aster Café and 318 Café. O'Reilly and his business partner Rick Guntzel are relaunching the bar as Republic, which will replace Preston's infamous giant fishbowl drinks with locally-sourced food and a selection of craft beers. Republic will feature 32 taps but won't offer macro-brews like Budweiser or Miller, instead focusing on local breweries and national microbrews.
"Some people are mad at me for getting rid of the fishbowls," said O'Reilly. "But we're not trying to chase the college kids away. Kids today are smart and hip to things like local food and craft beer. They deserve options beyond what the major chains offer."
He's insistent that Preston's customers will feel right at home in Republic once it opens its doors in mid-May. "The place was in really good shape. It really only needs a coat of paint."
While the new menu will offer up locally sourced food and organic ingredients, O'Reilly says that diners don't need to worry about a price hike. "This isn't a fine dining place. It's burgers and fries. Ninety percent of the menu is under $10 dollars. The way people are eating is changing, but it doesn't have to be expensive."
Deal for former Burger King site falls through
CENTRAL AVENUE NE — A deal to buy the old Burger King site at 1717 Central Ave. has fallen through, according to the company marketing the property.
"It was due to a contingency clause in the contract," said Brian Bruggeman, an associate with NAI Welsh. "The purchasing company didn't approve their internal inspection."
He said a handful of purchasers are interested in the property, however, including parties that were attracted to the original listing last winter.
This time around, Bruggeman said, Welsh is promoting the site as ideal for redevelopment, rather than a second-generation restaurant.
Panchero's Mexican Grill closes in Block E
HENNEPIN — At the rate that Block E is losing tenants, news that another one has shut down is hardly surprising.
But the latest Block E casualty may not have closed simply because of slow sales. According to the social media manager at the Panchero's Mexican Grill chain, the Block E location shut its doors because it did not fit with the development plans for the complex. Block E owner Alatus is pushing plans for an upscale casino in the retail complex. They unveiled plans for the project at the state Capitol May 4.
The news of the Panchero's closure broke via Twitter: "The Block E area has some new development plans coming, so we could not stay. Hope to be back downtown in the future!"
Wuollet Bakery opens skyway location
Wuollet Bakery, Inc. has built quite a local following for itself over 65 years, and judging by the crowd outside the new skyway location on its opening day, Downtown is eager to gobble up the company's signature baked goods. The new location opened at 200 S. 6th St. on April 27 to a seemingly endless line of customers.
"It's been fantastic," said Wuollet's Linda Pobuda. "We opened at 7, but we had customers lined up 20 minutes before. And they've been coming in steadily all day since then."
Wuollet's skyway location offers up donuts and pastries, cookies and more, including cakes that can be ordered same day for office parties. The decorating area of the bakery is visible through its big glass windows, through which passersby can see Wuollet staffers work on artistic cupcakes, cakes and other treats.
Walmart may be looking to open Downtown location
Minneapolis may be the home of Target, but that may not stop Walmart. According to the Minneapolis St. Paul Business Journal, the retail giant is talking to landlords about potential spaces for a Downtown store.
Despite an expansion in Minnesota in recent years, Walmart has denied any immediate move into Target's home turf.
"We're always looking for opportunities to create jobs and improve access to affordable groceries, but don't have any new projects to announce in Minneapolis at this time," Walmart representative Tiffany Moffatt said in an e-mail.
ALM Corner Café replaces Lily's
CENTRAL AVENUE — Lily's didn't stay empty for long at 33rd & Central. A new café with influences from Mexico, Venezuela and Puerto Rico — the owners' home countries — opened May 1, serving coffee, sandwiches and pastries.
ALM Corner Café takes its name from three of the shop's founders — Ana Pinto, Lilliana Feliciano and Martha Garces. They're excited about the fresh Queso Palmita cheese they're using in sandwiches and dishes like cachapas, which are traditional Venezuelan corn pancakes filled with de mano cheese.
"It's totally different," Feliciano said of the cheese, which is made and shipped here from Texas over the course of a single day. "It's not here in Minnesota."
Other unique dishes include a puff pastry filled with flower squash, zucchini, corn and poblano peppers; and molletes, a french bread topped with fried beans, pico de gallo and cheese.
The shop's coffee comes from Roastery 7, a wholesale roaster based in Brooklyn Center, and the tea is from the local supplier Tea Source. The staff suggest that customers sample the Mexican hot chocolate, which is made from real cocoa and a touch of cinnamon.
The store is a bit smaller than the former Lily's footprint. An adjacent room and patio is now subdivided to become an antique store, Feliciano said.
Forum Restaurant closes
HENNEPIN — Just shy of its one-year anniversary, the Forum restaurant has closed its doors. Named after the space's original tenant, the Forum Cafeteria, Forum is just the latest in a long line of restaurants that have inhabited the space.
The original Forum restaurant closed in 1975 and briefly became Scottie's on Seventh. The interior of the space was dismantled and relocated in 1979 to its current location inside City Center, roughly 100 feet away from its original home. Since then, the space has been home to multiple restaurants including Goodfellow's, which survived for nearly a decade before closing its doors in 2005.
First-time restaurateur Jim Ringo took over the space last spring, around the same time he and his wife opened Ringo in St. Louis Park. That restaurant has also since closed.

We are a young family who loves the desert and the sun. We bought our house in Alvondale in the summer of 2010. After many trips to our father's house in Glendale we fell in love with the Phoenix sun. We loved watching our two kids play in the pool and enjoying the sun in the middle of winter. Phoenix has so many of our favourite restaurant and shopping. We love our house and have had so many great memories there. We can't wait for you to experience all that Phoenix has to offer.
The Owner purchased this house in 2010
Avondale is a beautiful, modern area. There is lots of great shopping and restaurants. Our house is located in a very quiet neighbourhood next to a beautiful park, but is also just minutes from the freeway. Which makes getting anywhere in the Phoenix area easy.
There a tons of parks that is just a short walk away. You can sit on the patio and watch the the waterfall between the spa and pool or enjoy a game of pool on our Connelly Billiard pool table.
This is my 2nd time renting this house. Very spacious house and excellent pool/hot tub. House and yard are in great shape. Would definitely recommend this house.
This vacation rental was fabulous! The house was spotless upon arrival and very easy to settle into. We went to a hockey game, took a taxi ($25), what a great experience.
Owners were very communicative which made booking easy, and would have been available if there were any issues (There were not)
LOVED this place, will definately go back!
I would definitely recommend this house for any age! We had a toddler and there and he loved it. There was nice pool toys for him! The house was nice and clean and everything was in excellent working condition! The pool and spa were excellent:) this was definitely a five out of five star rating! Very quiet neighbourhood!
The house was beyond my expectations! It was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. The owners were very accommodating. The neighbourhood was beautiful,nice and quite. The house is in a great location with lots of shopping and entertainment around. We will definitely be going back.
We loved our stay here. The pool was great and the A/C was a perfect way to avoid the 110+ degree weather. The kitchen has everything you'll need and the wifi is blazing fast!
The house was very clean and in a great location. The pictures don't do it justice. We will definitely stay again. The owner is helpful and responses quickly to emails. Thanks

Digestive Disorders Health Center
Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
How It Is Done
A gastrointestinal endoscopy may be done in a doctor's office, a clinic, or a hospital. An overnight stay in the hospital usually is not needed. The test is most often performed by a doctor who specializes in problems of the digestive system (gastroenterologist). The doctor may also have an assistant. Some family medicine doctors, internists, and surgeons are also trained to do endoscopy.
Before the procedure, blood tests may be done to check for a low blood count or clotting problems. Your throat may be numbed with an anesthetic spray, gargle, or lozenge to relax your gag reflex and make it easier to insert the endoscope into your throat.
During the test, you may receive a pain medicine and a sedative through an intravenous (IV) line in your arm or hand. These medicines reduce pain and will make you feel relaxed and drowsy during the test. You may not remember much about the actual test.
You will be asked to lie on your left side with your head bent slightly forward. A mouth guard may be placed in your mouth to protect your teeth from the endoscope. Then the lubricated tip of the endoscope will be guided into your mouth, and your doctor may gently press your tongue out of the way. You may be asked to swallow to help move the tube along. It is helpful to remember that the instrument is no thicker than many foods you swallow and will not cause problems with breathing.
Once the endoscope is in your esophagus, your head will be tilted upright. This makes it easier for the scope to slide down your esophagus. During the procedure, try not to swallow unless requested to. An assistant may remove the saliva from your mouth with a suction device, or you can allow the saliva to drain from the side of your mouth.
Your doctor will slowly move the endoscope while looking through an eyepiece or watching on a video monitor to examine the walls of your esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Air or water may be injected through the scope to help clear a path for the scope or to clear its lens, and suction may be applied to remove air or secretions.

cahills vs vesper
this book was fantastic! It was exciting and was action packed! =)
#2 Cahills vs. Vespers
The great authors of the 39 clues series have made another great series with Amy and Dan unearthing the truth about the vespers while doing their bidding to save the ones they care about. This is a great addition to the series and recommend it to fans of the first book and fans of the 39 clues series.
In this book, the Vespers want the Cahills to find a map, but only catch is that the map was missing for over fifty years, and they have a short time limit!
This book is epic! I loved reading it! It is action packed and there's a lot of adventure in it.

Let's Kill Lance Armstrong !!!
I allege that you were the second gunman in Dallas on 11/22/63. I have 10 people that will testify but I won't name them and you can't see their testimony. Prove me wrong.
For all I know, he is guilty as sin, but I would like him to get a fair hearing as opposed to a Kangaroo Court which is what it sounds like this thing is.
I would also like to see both sides. The USADA can put this all to rest by simply producing a positive test result, and having it verified at an independent lab. If they were to do this, almost everyone would go along with Armstrong as a doper.
The fact that they have to resort to anything else seems strange to me.
Consider the set of all sets that have never been considered.

... as we were pretty much surrounded by areas of dark, threatening clouds, I couldn't tell where. The reason why this is relevant is that frequently, the onset of thunderous rain gives rise to local winds, due to the fact that water vapour in the form of cloud, when it condenses to rain, gives off a great deal of heat and this heats the air, which rises and cold air is sucked in to replace it ie wind. This explains why, despite ...

Re: ***Official Dark Souls Feedback Thread***
You're gonna need to do Blighttown, sorry to say! It's a bitch but there are two bonfires - one near the top and one down at the swamp. Enjoy the poison swamp by the way. And the endlessly respawning flies that puke poison blood on you. Bring a bow if you don't have one.
There are a ton of optional areas available if you want to try - Darkroot Forest, New Londo Ruins (only go here if you're cursed, or you can't block or attack the ghosts), Darkroot Basin, Valley of the Drakes (avoid this IMO I still can barely kill the enemies here). Explore places you may have missed in Undead Burg/Parish, buy one-time items like the things that let you repair at bonfires, etc. Grind souls if you want. Plenty of stuff to do, but Blighttown is gonna have to get done at some point. Trust me it's not so bad once you explore it and know where to go/what to watch out for. The boss is really fun too.

I love this so much that I'm reviewing it AGAIN to say that it is one of the world's perfect dishes. I thought I hated cauliflower. I just didn't know!
Surprisingly tasty! Not, mind-blowing, but it deserves 4 forks for being the best preparation of cauliflower I have ever tried.
Roasted cauliflower is delicious! This cooking method really brings out the natural sweetness of the cauliflower. The crunchy outer texture and softness within really make this a light and wonderful dish. As another cook suggested, I used garlic salt and they turned out great!
roasted cauliflower is awesome! i already loved raw cauliflower with my homemade sherry vinaigrette. now i love it roasted - add a little minced garlic and you are good to go. i will be making this regularly.
YUM! I added some garlic cloves and roasted those along with the cauliflower. After taking it out of the oven I squeezed fresh lemon juice on it and served room temperature....very good!
YUM! I added some garlic cloves and roasted those along with the cauliflower. After taking it out of the oven I squeezed fresh lemon juice on it and served room temperature....very good!
This was easy and so delicious -- the roasting changes the cauliflower in a completely unexpected way -- it's like alchemy! I added a lot of garlic, in thick slices, to the roasting pan about halfway through. I'd suggest using a large head of cauliflower, however -- my husband and I finished off the whole dish ourselves. This afternoon I'm going to add this dish to multigrain penne, a la the cauliflower/linguine recipe on Epicurious, as suggested by another reviewer.
Fabulous! I'll be making this often. Even those that don't like their veggies always like this cauliflower.
This is so good! My 2 and 3 year old "critics" even eat it. Cauliflower takes on a whole new personality here.
This was a really nice alternative to steamed or boiled cauliflower, and it has a really nice light flavour, with a wonderful texture. Yummy!

I talk about running a lot at home, just like I do here. The impact of all of this talk is evident in Reid. As I wrote last time, she was determined to run the 5K race on Race Weekend and is already wondering when she can run a 10K. I've offered a compromise that we'll enroll her in one of the Ottawa Lion's Athletics programs for young runners.
Reid is spending some time at my mom's this summer, which is close to the rest of my family, and so I registered her in a swim class with her cousin. He isn't at the same level as her but I put her in the same class anyway. I decided to "sell" it as a chance for her to practice breathing to the side without worrying about the distance. Reid was not concerned at all, responding with "Sometimes marathoners run a 5k for training." Okay, then.
Now and again, I'm reminded of how much I am a role model in Reid's life (yikes!) and what a great responsibility that is. And now I'm thinking about the role models in my own life. I greatly admire folks like Liz Knight, who has trained and changed her diet so significantly that she won a figure competition last weekend, and Katie, with her amazing marathon story and all around passion for fitness, but there are also Jenn (who ran a marathon and got married on back-to-back weekends) Wordywort and all of the other amazing Losing It ladies (past and present) who share the things they've learned. I'm not sure I've been paying as close attention to them as Reid does to me. I need to focus, more, I think.
What about you? Who are your role models and why?

Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
Hey guys,
I'm in the market for a 560Ti on a system I'm building. It's gonna be running 3 displays - 2 normal monitors and a 42" HDTV. The monitors connect through DVI and the HDTV through HDMI.
So can you have an extended desktop with all 3 displays?
Also, is the 560Ti fast enough to handle a scenario where you would do the following 3 things?
1) play an HD movie on the TV.
2) play a game on the primary monitor
3) have a browser open on the secondary monitor. or play your music program on the secondary monitor.
I know it's asking a lot, but I just wanna get some input and see if anyone's tried something similar.
Here are the system specs:
i5 2500k
560 Ti (Twin Frozr II version)
WD Caviar Black 1TB
edit: I just learned that some of the Z68 motherboards will have HDMI and DVI outputs. So does this mean you can run the HDTV off the motherbaord and the 2 monitors off the single 560?
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
Yes, if you buy the Z68 board, you are able to run the TV off of that and 2 monitors off the 560TI.
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
I think due to hardware limitations you can not for example play a game on one display and then run browsers or what not in windows environment on the second one, given they are both connected to the 560ti card unless you run the game in "window mode".
I only have one display and usually play my games via steam as it has the steam overlay with browser when I need it.
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
A couple more questions:
If I run the TV through the motherboard, does it use horsepower from the graphics card? The thing is, what if I want to run games on the HDTV once in a while? I was thinking it would make more sense if the motherboard was hooked up to the secondary monitor which won't be doing anything too graphically intensive. So here's what I was thinking:
560Ti DVI 1 - Primary monitor
560Ti HDMI - HDTV
z68 - secondary monitor
Now, if I do this, I should be able to run an extended desktop with all 3 displays. Also, this gives me the ability to sometimes use the HDTV for gaming.
Does this make any sense?
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
Currently, this Galaxy 560Ti, some GTX295s, GTX590, and the EVGA GTX4602Win are the single slot NVIDIA based solutions I'm aware of that run surround from a single slot.
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
I am still getting mixed input on whether I can achieve my triple display setup with the z68 board and a stock 560Ti. I've been told that when you're running off the PCIe, it disables the onboard graphics.
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
Re: Running 3 displays on 560Ti?
What I'm confused about is whether I can achieve my setup with a stock 560Ti and the z68.
Btw there's also a 6950 radeon flex edition from sapphire which lets you run 3 monitors without any displayport adapters.

NLEX shifts into high gear in the 2nd half to cruise past Cafe France
More News from Mark Giongco
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – NLEX head coach Boyet Fernandez challenged his players during a halftime huddle after struggling in the first half.
The Road Warriors put in every word Fernandez said and came out firing in the second half to fashion out an 85-62 drubbing of Cafe France Tuesday in the PBA D-League Foundation Cup at the Blue Eagle Gym.
"Medyo masama yung start [The start was rather bad], we're rattled up probably because we really wanted to win this ball game and get back against Cafe France because they were the only team to beat us last conference and they stopped our winning streak," said Fernandez.
"I challenged them at halftime. I told them you know you're not only playing to win but also to protect your name, NLEX and as well as your name at the back," Fernandez added. "Talent for talent we're capable of playing good. Our starters played well to start the third and our bench."
NLEX trailed by as much as nine points in the second quarter and by six, 27-33, at the intermission before it cruised ahead – outscoring Cafe France, 33-18, in the pivotal third period to take the lead for good.
NLEX kept its foot on the gas in the final quarter to pad on to its lead to 20, 78-58, on a three-pointer by Kirk Long with 3:30 left.
The Bakers, whose four-game winning run was snapped, were held scoreless for more than five minutes after Mark Lopez made a triple at the 7:27 mark of the final frame where they were just down by eight, 58-66.
Borgie Hermida led the way with 17 points while Nico alva poured in nine of his 16 points in the third quarter.
Jake Pascual added 10 points and 14 rebounds, including a tip-in that gave the lead back to NLEX, 40-39.
Hermida nailed a trey after Marion Magat's follow up to put NLEX ahead for good, 43-41, with 5:31 remaining in the third quarter.
The win put NLEX above .500 (3-2) for the first time this conference but it would take another performance like this for the Road Warriors to keep winning and regain their deadly form for good.
"We'll be facing Cagayan Valley, Fruitas and Blackwater and it will be a tough three games," said Fernandez, whose squad still await frontline reinforcement in Ariel Mepana.
Mepana, an inside bruiser, could give NLEX a boost down low but Fernandez seemed doubtful on whether his recruit would be able to play.
"His birthday is on April 11, if he will not make it tomorrow we're dead already," said Fernandez. "He'll be 29 then if he won't make it tomorrow."
The league has an age limit of 28 years old.
Cafe France, led by Lopez' 14 points, fell to 4-2.

Troup County School System held its local Spring Bus Road-e-o on April 24.
According to TCSS officials, the School Bus Safety Road-e-o has proven to be one of the most effective instructional tools available to improve a bus driver's driving skills. It is designed to promote bus safety by encouraging and rewarding professional driving.
The competitive event provides participants with positive, job-related motivation by emphasizing the important role bus drivers play in providing safe and reliable transportation for TCSS students. Driving skills and abilities were tested as bus driver's maneuvered on a course that included tasks like alley dock, curb line, offset alley, parallel parking, railroad crossing, serpentine, right turn, straight line, elementary student loading, diminishing clearance and stop line.
The School Bus Safety Road-e-o emphasizes the following objectives:
• To motivate and reinforce the learning and implementation of good practices involved in superior job performance as a school bus driver.
• To recognize excellence and provide for demonstration of their skills and responsible performance of the demanding job of the school bus driver.
We had 32 drivers compete this year. Mark Siersma placed first with 443 out of 500 points. Steve Williams placed second with 424 out of 500 points and Chris Snyder placed third 414 out of 500 points. Siersma and Williams will represent the school system at the State Road-e-o in June at the State School Bus Safety Road-e-o.
TCSS officials congratulated all the drivers who participated.
"If you see one of these drivers, please congratulate them because they have proven to be some of Troup County's best drivers," said Deb Myers, TCSS public relations administrative assistant. "A very special thank you to all of the local business partners who sponsored this event."

Bay Area Ranching Family Receives Conservation Award at California Rangeland Trust's Annual Gala
See this family on new YouTube video!
SACAMENTO, Calif., July 8 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Tim Koopmann and his family were honored in June at the annual fundraiser for the California Rangeland Trust with the third annual Conservationist of the Year Award for their life-long commitment to ranching, the environment and rangeland conservation.
Tim, his wife Melinda and children Clayton and Carrisa, operate a family-run beef cattle ranch in Sunol, a small community in Alameda County. They partnered with the Rangeland Trust, the Department of Fish and Game and a private developer in 2003 and again in 2005 with the City of Pleasanton to place two mitigation easements on their ranch. Both easements provide habitat for the California tiger salamander, a state listed species, and the California red legged frog, a federally threatened species and a state species of special concern. As a rancher, he knew protecting his family ranch with a conservation easement would maintain this critical habitat, ease the development pressure surrounding him, and help sustain the viability of ranching in the Bay Area.
"To be selected as conservationist of the year by my ranching colleagues is an unexpected honor that could be shared with many ranchers throughout California who have a similar vision of land conservation and want these rangelands preserved for many generations to come," said Tim.
Tim is a member of the Board of Directors for the California Rangeland Trust, a Certified Range Manager and a Watershed Resource Specialist with the Land and Resource Management Section of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission. The Koopmann family conducts tours throughout the year on their property for community students, environmentalists, agency personnel and wildlife enthusiasts. The Koopmann Ranch is also the place where environmentalist and ranchers first came together to form the unprecedented California Rangeland Conservation Coalition.
"The Rangeland Trust wants more than open space, we want to preserve a way of life, encourage good stewardship and allow that opportunity to be there for future generations of people and critters. Tim and his family are being given this award because they share this vision and have continued to work with us over the years to see rangeland conservation continue to be successful," said Steve McDonald, chairman of the board of the Rangeland Trust.
The Conservationist of the Year Award is the highest and most prestigious award bestowed by the California Rangeland Trust. The recipient of this award exemplifies true dedication to the advancement of the environment and rangeland conservation in California and preserving the ranching industry's legacy of land stewardship.
To date, the Rangeland Trust has worked with ranchers, other conservation groups and local land trusts to permanently conserve over 200,000 acres of privately owned rangeland in California. At their annual fundraiser, A Western Affair, over 250 guests from around the state gathered at Wente Vineyards in the Livermore Valley to celebrate our State's ranching history and to honor those, like the Koopmann Family, who have contributed to its success.

The California Rangeland Trust, a 501(c)(3) public benefit corporation, was created to conserve the open space, natural habitat and stewardship provided by California's ranches. To date, the Trust has protected over 200,000 acres of productive grazing lands across the State through the use of conservation easements. For more information, please visit www.rangelandtrust.org.
