The Liberal Media
Conservative Cannibalism
"Where are the Friedmans now? Where are the Buckleys?" asks David Frum in Comeback, his new analysis of what's gone wrong with conservatism. It's not a bad question. Milton Friedman changed the world with his ideas. William F. Buckley Jr. did so with his talents for movement building and magazine sustenance and his personal ambition. And as good conservatives, they were following in an honorable tradition. If you look at the great thinkers of the conservative movement, they wrote books. Not only Friedman and Buckley but also Russell Kirk, Friedrich Hayek, Whittaker Chambers, even Allan Bloom. But after eight catastrophic years in power, conservatives are out of ideas. Those who write books today do so largely as personal marketing strategies. (Neither Karl Rove nor William Kristol, arguably the right's two most influential thinkers, has ever seen fit to sustain a book-length argument about anything at all, much less political philosophy.)
A former Bush apparatchik turned hagiographer who was briefly famous after his wife sent out a mass e-mail claiming he deserved credit for the phrase "axis of evil," Frum is clearly having second thoughts. For instance, he is willing to admit that the Bush Administration has been a near-complete disaster. Still, he peppers his analysis with enough bizarre assertions to lead a reader to wonder just how rational he believes his audience to be. Can a sane person really call George W. Bush a "middle of the road" President in domestic policy? Does Frum really believe it's impossible to support both organized labor and the genuinely poor? (Which side would he have put Cesar Chavez on, for instance?) And if "no Republican politician would ever advocate a value-added tax," just who the heck is this Huckabee fellow? Frum's policy proposals, while not always outlandish, occasionally strain credulity. For instance, he advocates using government funds to establish an Office of Marriage and Children. If this is the stuff of a conservative "comeback," then liberals can rest easy.
Frum's book ain't much, but compared with Jonah Goldberg's, it's another Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. As you may recall, Goldberg's primary claim to public attention derived from exploiting the disreputable part his mother, Lucianne Goldberg, played in Linda Tripp's betrayal of Monica Lewinsky. Then employed as the vice president of Mom's right-wing literary agency, Goldberg told reporters he planned to pen a "Bonfire of the Vanities-type thing about stories peripheral to the scandal," with imagined movie deals to follow. Well, the only person who might imagine making a movie of the book Goldberg finally did write a decade later would be Mel Brooks. Liberal Fascism is the "Springtime for Hitler" of intellectual history. The book reads like a Google search gone gaga. Some Fascists were vegetarians; some liberals are vegetarians; ergo... Some Fascists were gay; some liberals are gay... Fascists cared about educating children; Hillary Clinton cares about educating children. Aha! (I see from my own ten seconds of Googling that cult leader Lyndon LaRouche beat Goldberg to this argument by five years with an essay titled "How Liberalism Created Fascism," published by his presidential committee. Hmmm.) People, this is a book that argues that Woodrow Wilson "was the twentieth century's first fascist dictator" and that it is "impossible to deny that the New Deal was objectively fascistic." It's a rare book, indeed, that can be fairly judged by its cover, but I really do think that a smiley face with a Hitler mustache tells you all you will ever need to know about Liberal Fascism.
As dumb as Liberal Fascism may be, Goldberg has managed to sound even dumber when discussing it. He has modestly described his book as "a very serious, thoughtful argument that has never been made in such detail or with such care." And in an interview published in Salon, he actually makes the statement, "The only reason [Mussolini] got dubbed a Fascist and therefore a right-winger is because he supported World War I." Of course, out here in the real world, we think of Mussolini as the fellow who founded what would become Italy's National Fascist Party and became a proud dictator in its name, which would strike most people as a better reason to dub him a Fascist. Now, anyone can misspeak, but, dude, that's the topic of your book. (Unfortunately this magic moment, appearing as it did in Salon, cannot be made into a YouTube video so it could take its rightful place alongside Miss South Carolina and the most recent classic, American Idol's Kellie Pickler. Ms. Pickler, when asked in which European country could be found the city of Budapest, explained, "I thought Europe was a country," adding upon being given the correct answer by a fifth grader, "Hungry? That's a country? I've heard of Turkey. But Hungry?")
I'm tempted to call the publication of Liberal Fascism an intellectual scandal, but I remember that I live in a country where White House press secretary Dana Perino can admit to having no idea what the Cuban missile crisis was. ("Wasn't that like the Bay of Pigs thing?") And it thrives in a culture where Ann Coulter not only rules bestseller lists but has found herself, according to the nonprofit Media Matters, interviewed nearly 200 times on at least thirteen programs on MSNBC, CNBC and NBC, not including the period she worked there. True, Goldberg does not call people "faggots" in public or speculate merrily on the joys of mass murder, but his scholarly method is most definitely Coulterian. Like Coulter, he's got a bunch of footnotes. And for all I know, they check out. But they are put in the service of an argument that no one with any knowledge of the topic would take seriously. "The mind of this country, taught to aim at low objects, eats upon itself," Ralph Waldo Emerson once observed, I learn from Susan Jacoby's excellent book The Age of American Unreason. (I wonder if Emerson was tempted to call his work Conservative Cannibalism.) Where, oh where, are the Friedmans of yesteryear?

"When brain cancer stem cells were first discovered, we all realized rapidly that we would need to find drugs that attack these cells specifically, because they're resistant to our conventional therapies," Kornblum said. "We needed a way to kill these stem cells."
UCLA's high-throughput screening technology is capable of screening as many as 100,000 compounds in a single day. Researchers generally develop cancer cells lines and then create an assay, a procedure in molecular biology to test or measure the activity of a drug or biochemical compound in an organic sample, in this case the cancer cells.
The cells are loaded into plates with 384 wells each and the drugs are added. The plates are about the size of the palm of an adult hand. The computerized, robotic screening system executes the process from start to finish, adding the compounds sitting in the tiny wells in the plates to the cancer cells, located in corresponding assay plates.
In this study, Kornblum and his team had a few clues to help them in narrowing down potential candidates that kill brain cancer stem cells. One method they used was based on a prior discovery by Jonsson Cancer Center researchers. The researchers had identified genes that correlate with how aggressive a brain tumor is, so Kornblum decided to try to find potential drug candidates that might reduce the expression of these genes. Another approach was to figure out which of the molecules killed brain cancer stem cells with a greater potency than they attacked other cells within glioblastoma.
To grow his cell lines, Kornblum used human tissue taken from UCLA patients diagnosed with glioblastoma. He knew that a certain method of culturing brain cancer cells resulted in

Uncontrollable shaking after tooth extraction
Three days ago I had my bottom back left molar extracted. I have had other molars...
Posted by
Three days ago I had my bottom back left molar extracted. I have had other molars extracted in the past with literally NO repurcussions. This extraction was difficult, took a lot more time than the previous ones and required two different kinds of novacaine to numb. Even with these injections, I could still feel a great deal of discomfort. At some point in the process a large muscle in my left thigh began to convulse and this continued on and off throughout the procedure.
After the extraction was over my entire body began to shake uncontrollably and I felt increasingly cold. These symptoms continued for several hours and I could not get warm no matter how many blankets I used. The shaking was severe and seemed to be eminating from the core of my body . . . I could feel the shaking internally as well as externally.
I was frightened by this experience and went back to the dentist's office. The entire staff seemed surprised by my symptoms and actually said they had never seen this before, which made it even more worrisome. They offered no solution or treatment and simply sent me home.
Does anyone have a clue what caused these symptoms? Is there anything the dentist/staff could have done to treat my symptoms?
I consider the entire experience to have been one of the more traumatic medical experiences I've had and now wish I had not had the tooth extracted, or had chosen a different dentist.

Originally written on NFL Trade Rumors | Last updated 11/20/14
Steven Jackson joined the NFL Network on Friday and mentioned that he still considers "retirement is an option" as he heads into the offseason. Jackson, 29, reworked his contract during the season, which will allow him to be become an unrestricted free agent in a matter of months. He has a $7 million player option for the 2013 season, but odds are that he'll decline the option in favor of securing a larger contract. Last year, Jackson also considered retirement, so there's still a chance he could call it quits. The Rams seem to like what Daryl Richardson brings to their offense, but they've maintained that are interested in reaching a long-term deal with Jackson that would allow him to finish his career in St Louis. We'll have to see just how serious Jackson is regarding the retirement issue. We have Jackson listed as the No. 13 best available player in our Top 50 Free Agents list.

Cajun Crawler: the Segway gets a leg-up
By Paul Evans
March 17, 2009
March 18, 2009 Take one DIY Self balancing electric vehicle project, replace the wheels with 6 pars of short legs based on Theo Jansen kinetic sculptures and the result looks like something out of "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy". A dynamically stabilized, ride-on robot that crawls.
The Cajun Crawler was built by a team of mechanical engineering students at the University of Louisiana and was inspired by Theo Jansen's leg mechanism. During their research the students found no application where Jansen's leg mechanism was used in a weight-bearing application or on a vehicle.
The six pairs of insect like legs are machined from 5052 Aluminium and driven with two 18V hand-drill motors that drive the legs via a crankshaft. The electronics and battery packs from the cordless drills were also used to power the crawler. The Cajun Crawler uses the same Dynamic Stabilization used in the Segway, but the multiple feet give it a more stable platform with a top speed of 3mph.
The materials used to make the Crawler cost approximately USD$1100-1200 in total. Thanks to the low cost of microcontollers and electronic components DIY Segway projects have become a popular choice in university mechanical engineering labs around the world with many variations on the idea but this is the first we have seen that crawls.
The original Segway came out of the first product that used Dean Kamen's balancing technology, the iBOT wheelchair which could climb stairs. We shall have to wait and see if any students try to build a balancing robot with human sized legs.
Check out the video of the Cajun Crawler in action below.
Paul Evans
thats awesome, but what would you use it for??lane
First, this isn't a balancing platform... In the Segway, you go forward by leaning forward...you go backward by leaning backwards. This seems to have some kind of paddle speed control on the handlebars. And it doesn't do any balancing at all...in the video it clearly shows a persom falling forward on the thing...this would not happen on a Segway. Then there's the stupid handle bar? Who did they make this for, midgets? Children? Obviously not any kind of adult... This is nothing more than a set of manufactured legs pushing a platform around...nothing all that exciting...I've seen 5 year olds do the same thing with their lego-mindstorm kits! EdEd
I read the article, innovative idea. I read the comment above, and it actually made me register an account just to reply.
Ed, you're a shallow jackass.X
I\'m conflicted, I LOVE it yet watching it function makes my skin crawl. As for Ed\'s comments: I don\'t see it balancing either, but it\'s kind of neat that it does not have to. Also, there is a video on the web of former USA Prez George W. Bush falling forward on a Segway. Be sure to look at the Gizmag Video of the Honda gadget that looks like a dog biscuit that you sit on one end of. The Honda gadget is a pleasing to watch as this one is creapy to watch. I don\'t see any practical use for either one of these gadgets other than as locomotion for a robot or a camera.Dave B13
This wasn\'t so much of a project to try to make something new and revolutionary, but rather a \"hey you know what would be cool?\" thing. I know this because I\'m a mechanical engineering student at UL and personally talked to the guys who made it.Forward Thinker
Wow, that's pretty awesome. Now they need to make it with the legs around 5 times taller and engineer it to be able to "step up" in order to climb steps and possibly even rocks and such. It might make a REALLY awesome replacement for a wheelchair that can handle virtually any terrain.
Ironically, the closest wheelchair to an "all terrain" version out there today was created by Dean Kamen, inventor of the Segway.
This would look really, really cool in a SciFi movie or show.Dave Andrews

Wigan Athletic defender Titus Bramble admits they must start picking up points again - starting with victory on Saturday against Portsmouth.
For Latics, it's the chance to exorcise the demons of Old Trafford after a 4-0 beating by United on their last outing.
The international break has prolonged the agony and Bramble admitted: "When you get beaten like we did against United you want to get into the next one straight away.
"But we have had to wait two weeks for the chance to put it right. And the way Portsmouth are playing, we'll have our work cut out.
"We've been unlucky in a couple of games - we should have taken something from the Reading and Liverpool games - and we have got to start picking up points again."

Wilson Gut question
I know that Wilson Gut is produced in France by Babolat and literally is exact copy of VS Gut. But if Wilson Gut the same as current VS BT7 or Original VS?
Closest to original VS (without BT7). Less stiff and more feel than Bab BT7.
Well, "softer" and "firmer" are too simple to describe the differences.
BT7 lost the "dynamic" nature of gut resilience, IMHO.
Try stringing Wilson gut(original VS) somewhat tighter and compare them.
You'll feel the dynamic nature of it. Bt7 also loses resilience much quicker than original VS. BT7 therefore feels and performs like synthetic multis to me. I experimented with it for 1 year and I'll never use BT7 again.
Question is, will babolat change formula for Wilson eventually or not? Should I stock up large number of Wilson gut now or not?
Yes, Babolat makes Wilson gut with the non BT7 formula. It was confirmed by vs babolat (I think?) that Wilson gut is made by Babolat, and a few sets of Wilson gut (a while back) had Babolat VS gut printed on the strings.

CHICAGO, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Female Health Company (NASDAQ-CM: FHCO), which manufactures and markets the FC2 Female Condom, today reported its financial results for the first quarter of FY2013. The Company will host an investor conference call today at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss these operating results and other topics of interest (see details below).
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120712/MM39764LOGO)
"We are pleased with the outstanding results, including record gross profit and operating income, achieved by the Company in the first quarter of our 2013 fiscal year," noted O.B. Parrish , Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Female Health Company. "The 13% increase in first quarter unit sales reflects increasing global demand for the FC2 Female Condom. In Fiscal 2012, we expanded our FC2 production capacity in Malaysia by approximately 20% in anticipation of continued growth in demand. We currently have the capability to manufacture approximately 100 million FC2 Female Condoms annually, compared with total shipments of 61.6 million units in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012."
"We believe the rising demand for FC2 reflects a growing awareness of the dual protection that FC2 provides against both unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS," continued Parrish. "FC2 makes an important contribution to saving lives and reducing healthcare costs, particularly in light of the fact that HIV/AIDS remains the leading cause of death worldwide among women 15 to 44 years of age."
For the three months ended December 31, 2012, FC2 unit sales increased 12.8% when compared with the first quarter of FY2012, to 17.1 million units, which represents an al

ClassicsOnline Home » MAYR: L'Armonia / Cantata sopra la morte di Beethoven > Review List
Born near Ingolstadt in Bavaria, Simon Mayr spent the greater part of his career in Bergamo, a flourishing cultural and economic centre in the early nineteenth century. An important figure in the promotion of Viennese classicism in Italy, he combined, in his own style, the legacy of Vienna with the dramatic and melodic genius of Italy, and held a dominant position in Italian opera before the emergence of Rossini. Mayr's L'Armonia was written in 1825 for a visit to Bergamo by the Emperor, followed in 1827 by his Cantata for the Death of Beethoven, a work which contains allusions to Wellington's Victory, the Sixth Symphony, the Mass in C major and the oratorio Christus am Ölberg, which Mayr had performed in 1826 in Bergamo.

Okinawa: Japan's resistant islands
It's now 40 years since Okinawa reverted from direct US control to Japanese sovereignty, but the islands' sense of being 'other' has again been highlighted in a new book.
While just one per cent of Japan's population lives there, the sprawling island group hosts 75 per cent of US military bases.
The issue remains contentious for locals but is actively supported by Japan's national government.

Back N Touch Wellness CenterRead MoreThe chiropractors, acupuncturists, and massage therapists who make up Back N Touch Wellness Center's core staff share an appreciation for holistic remedies and an understanding that no two bodies are alike. These mutual tenets form the basis for all of the center's personalized treatments, which cater to patients ailing from body aches, migraines, pregnancy side effects, and the lingering effects of mechanical-bull rides.

In an effort to channel the calming, peaceful feeling of water, trickling streams, and leaky faucets that drip to the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat," MLO's owner, Maria Orbinati, latched onto a blue color palette and never looked back. The end result was a calming, modern feel—yet one set in elegant relief by Greek columns and arches. Almost as an homage to the décor, the staff performs a deep hydration facial to mitigate wrinkles with a hyaluronic system.

ClassicsOnline Home » MARTINU: Piano Quintets Nos. 1 and 2 / Sonata for 2 Violins and Piano
Chamber music occupies a significant place in the vast output of Bohuslav Martinu. His First Piano Quintet, written in 1933, a period during which Martinu renewed his interest in the folk-lore and traditional music of his native Bohemia, is a fine instance of the neo-classicism dominating his output in the 1930s. The larger-scale Second Piano Quintet, composed in 1944, exhibits the restlessness and anxiety that Martinu felt during the war years. The Sonata for Two Violins and Piano is freer and more relaxed than the two quintets, and is written in a style more baroque than classical.
By Christopher Latham
Limelight Magazine
Martinu is finally being reassessed and taking his place as the great Czech composer to follow Janacek. He is also the only Czech Jewish composer of his generation to survive the holocaust. …the two piano quintets, one from his Paris years and the second from his American wartime period, are simply wonderful and yet almost completely unknown. The recording and performances are excellent and Naxos must be congratulated for enabling much of his music to be finally heard.
By David Denton
Bohuslav Martinů (1890-1959)
Piano Quintets Nos. 1 and 2 • Sonata for Two Violins and Piano
Chamber music, in all of its many combinations from ensembles of up to nine instruments to duos, occupies a significant place in the vast output of Bohuslav Martinů. Although it is the sequence of string quartets, spanning a period of some three decades (1917-47) that constitutes his most substantial contribution to the genre [Naxos 8.553459, 8.553782 and 8.553783], there are few chamber formations whose possibilities he did not try out, not least the piano quintet, a medium that had held considerable appeal for composers during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and whose late-Romantic expressive overtones Martinů found not at all incompatible with the distinctly post-Romantic aesthetic favoured during his maturity.
Although he had composed a piano quintet as early as 1911, the two numbered works came much later. The First Piano Quintet emerged in 1933, a period during which Martinů, who had come through the heady excesses of 1920s Paris with its predilection for jazz and dance music (idioms that were extensively explored in his music), was focussing on more clear-cut stylistic elements, coupled with a renewed interest in the folk-lore and traditional music of his native Bohemia, then part of Czechoslovakia. Compact in its formal dimensions and restrained in expression, the work is a fine instance of the neo-classicism dominating Martinů's instrumental output in the 1930s. Typically, each of its four movements obeys classical principles without ever merely imitating them.
The first movement begins with a vigorous idea shared between all five instruments, before the piano makes a commanding transition to the second main theme, which is subdued and capricious by turns. This brings about the main climax, whereupon the piano effects a more self-effacing transition back to the livelier idea. The themes then alternate on the way to a surprisingly impassioned ending. The second movement opens with a flowing, hymn-like theme on strings, taken up by the piano so that a ruminative dialogue develops. A more forceful central section provides necessary contrast, before the main theme resumes at a marked tonal distance from before, building intensively before dying away regretfully in the strings. A brief coda, drawing on both themes, brings the mood full circle. The third movement is an intermezzo whose often lively rhythmic syncopation is typical of the composer. The trio section is characterized by a folk-like theme heard over a tonally ambivalent accompaniment, after which the initial theme resumes its animated course as before. The fourth and final movement brings with it an incisive theme that is energetically discussed by the quintet, with the march-like second theme rather more ironic in tone. Both of these themes feature in an intensive central development, led away from by the second theme. This is now curtailed so that the first theme can be brought back into play for an augmented and decisive conclusion: one that may yet catch the first-time listener unaware.
Composed in 1944, the Second Piano Quintet is a product of the war-years that Martinů spent in and around New York. Although he adapted to his American environment more readily than others of his contemporaries, an element of restiveness, even anxiety, is seldom far from the surface of his music during that time. Such is true of the quintet, cast on a larger scale than its predecessor and also more innovative in its approach to formal issues. Although it was written immediately before the Third Symphony [Naxos 8.553350], the work's mood of cautious optimism is rather closer to that of the Fourth Symphony [Naxos 8.553349] that succeeded it, as is the often intricate and diaphanous instrumentation.
The first movement gradually comes into focus through an undulating motion on piano and strings, with the robust main theme only then taking shape. As with other of Martinů's instrumental works of this period, there are numerous secondary but related ideas that throw the main theme into greater relief, not least a mysterious one at the centre that brings back the opening music in varied form. The second movement is one of the composer's most thoughtful Adagios, building from a few simple phrases into a noble dialogue and complemented by an unworldly, ostinato-driven idea that might almost be a prototype for certain Minimalist music of several decades hence. This gives way to a version of the first theme heard radiantly on violin, then to a searching passage on strings, before the opening is recalled on the way to a gentle close. The third movement is a fully-fledged scherzo whose main theme nonchalantly trades exchanges between the strings over a lively piano accompaniment, culminating in a hectic chase to the close. By contrast, the trio is spare and almost self-effacing in manner, while being no less rhythmically alert. The scherzo then resumes much as before, but this time the 'chase' brings about a more decisive end. The fourth movement opens with a slow introduction of a sustained intensity and tonal freedom not found elsewhere. The Allegro that follows is a perfect foil in its nimble energy and relaxed manner, though the introduction is to make its presence felt in an intensified mid-way return. After this, a much-curtailed version of the Allegro returns to take the whole work through to its breathless conclusion.
Baroque stylisms and procedures were as important to Martinů as those from the Classical era, as is demonstrated in the Sonata for Two Violins and Piano composed in 1932 (two years after a Sonatina for the same combination): a work freer and also more relaxed in its manner than are the quintets. The first movement begins with an animated theme that has a distinct rustic feel. A second idea is moodier in expression, without undermining the essentially good-natured manner of the movement overall, which presently heads to a lively close. The second movement combines both slow movement and finale. The Andante is pensive but never overly tragic in its manner, though building to a climax of due seriousness. It draws to a thoughtful yet audibly provisional close, at which point the Allegro is launched in decisive fashion. This features a notably darker central section, which is yet too brief to dispel the high spirits that soon return to take the work on to its effervescent close.

Phoenix City Council votes to cut pay of police
PHOENIX -- Almost 2,400 Phoenix Police officers will be taking a 2.5 percent pay cut over the next two years to help the city climb out of a $37 million budget hole.
The cut was approved by the Phoenix City Council at Wednesday night's meeting. Other city employee unions had already been subjected to pay cuts.
"We're asking employees to reduce compensation a little to preserve jobs and services," City Manager Ed Zuercher said. The council gave Zuercher a $56,000 pay boost last month just weeks after he took the job.
"I can't put into words how disgusted I am right now with the current state of the city government," said Joe Clure, head of the Phoenix Law Enforcement Association.
"The VA has nothing on the City of Phoenix right now. The Phoenix Police force is beleaguered. They're worn out, they're tired and they have given enough. I can't begin to explain the frustration level for officers."
Dozens of officers flooded the hearing that went late into the night. Clure predicted many will look for work with other departments, adding that the force is already down 520 officers.
Mayor Greg Stanton, council members Kate Gallego, Thelda Williams, Laura Pastor and Daniel Valenzuela provided the votes in favor. Bill Gates, Sal DiCiccio, Jim Waring and Michael Nowakowski voted no.
Clure said the union will look at options, including one that would put the decision before voters with a referendum in the fall.

Fast, cheap, and compact.
SSD caching would help drive performance; its a tad loud.
ORIGIN PC'S GAME plan with its new Chronos box is pretty clear: It wants a piece of the buzz that Alienware stirred up with its much-lauded X51 mini gaming PC.
Where Origin PC hopes to punch the Alienware X51 in its exoskeleton nose is in performance. The Alienware X51 that we reviewed in the May 2012 issue came with a GeForce GTX 555 and 3GHz Core i5-2320 (the fastest configuration at the time). The Chronos easily out-specs that with its liquid-cooled 3.4GHz Core i5-2550K and EVGA Classified GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 card. To make it even less fair, Origin takes advantage of the liquid cooler to clock the chip up to 4.7GHz on the Zotac Z68ITX-A-E board.
With its 57 percent higher base-clock speed, it's no surprise that the Chronos outpaced the Alienware X51 by more than 40 percent in our application tests, as well as nearly 110 percent in STALKER: CoP and 78 percent in Far Cry 2.
But what about small form factors with a bit more muscle? We compared the Chronos to the CyberPower LAN Party Evo that we reviewed in July 2011 and found that the Chronos actually did pretty well. Granted, it's not completely fair to put a PC today against one available last summer, but we'll do it anyway. The LAN Party Evo box had nearly the same chassis, but was packed with a GeForce GTX 580, a 3.4GHz Core i7-2600K, and a 120GB SSD. The Chronos actually wins in three of our app benchmarks and ties in one. On the other hand, it makes an interesting statement about Hyper-Threading. Despite being clocked 1.3GHz slower, the Evo's 2600K is right on the tail of the non-Hyper-Threaded Core i5-2550K. The Evo's full-boat GeForce GTX 580 also outruns the Chronos's GPU. That LAN Party Evo, however, cost about $900 more in 2011 money.
It's not all about specs and shekels, though. You also have to consider the other tangibles in this class of machine: Is it quiet? Are there gaffes with the build? We think the Chronos is a bit loud thanks to its heavy overclock; both the CyberPower and the Alienware rigs were nearly silent—especially the X51, with its Optimus technology, which lets it run on its whisper-quiet integrated graphics for low-intensity uses. Why other vendors can't get this feature yet we don't know. Hear us, Nvidia?
The traditional shoebox design might not gracefully blend into a living room environment, nor will the noise.
We also have an issue with the slot-fed drive in the Chronos. The way the drive is mounted leaves a slight gap between it and the case, which caused us to slip a disc into the case and not the drive.
So is the Chronos an X51 slayer? We don't think so. It's still about $200 more than the X51, and to be frank, we think they don't directly compete. As much as Alienware denies it, we see the X51 as an attack on gaming consoles—it's more of a console form factor box than a small form factor box, in our opinion. That doesn't take away from Origin PC's Chronos, though.
At this price, it offers a lot of performance in a traditional shoebox design that's perhaps more at home at a LAN party than a media center rack.

I dont use painter but... this is how i start...
I zoom out the canvas really small, smaller than a business card. and fill in the canvas with half tone color or darker by using paint bucket. and let my hand flow freely on canvas to block in roughly. it could be low rez at this point. When canvas is small, it is easier to see what is going on through out the canvas. main point of working small is to get overall design, value, composition, mood, and everything fast, not to focus on detail. and when things look ok, then I up rez it and zoom in to paint details.
just one dumb idea from a dumb artist..

I always have to start with paper and pencil. I followed Carlos Huante's technique of glazing light colors over my pencil sketch and gradually build up opaque areas. Some people will lay down local flat colors and then model highlights and shadow.
Also check out Chris Beatrice's CGTALK Article. He's a super nice guy that gave me some great pointers. He details in the article how to setup just a single brush to paint and blend. Here's the Link.
Good Luck!

I removed the back cover in the freezer section by removing six screws. The entire coil, the thermostat and the lines were all iced over. I used a hairdryer to defrost everything. I removed the thermostat by uncoupling the connectors and unclipping it from the coil tubing. I found the thermostat was bulging and deformed. I jumped out the thermostat using an insulated clip lead. I taped it so it would not short to anything. I plugged the unit in, turned the unit to "1" and advanced the defrost timer to defrost. I could hear the water hissing on the coil. I ordered the thermostat. It arrived in 3 days. The new one had a different terminal. I cut off the matching one from the old part and used a scotch-lok to make the connection to the new part. I slapped it in, dressed the wires and replaced the cover. I noticed that when I advanced the timer after replacing the thermostat, it did not immediately come on. The thermostat has an operating temperature window. I checked it several days later and found no frost. Everything works great.

Thereafter, the parties disputed the damages, offset, and method of prejudgment interest calculation. The Court has now ruled on those issues, awarding Republic the full amount of damages claimed, declining to award Group Des Assurance Nationales an offset against premiums paid, and awarding prejudgment interest dating back to the contract years at issue, which roughly doubled the award.

The prospect for a peaceful settlement of the Iranian nuclear dispute is now within sight amid various reports that Iran is ready to make concessions to President Obama. But the U.S. election remains an obstacle with Republicans attacking the very idea of one-on-one talks, notes ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.
Introduction to Parry's New Book
Robert Parry's new book, America's Stolen Narrative, is now available for sale, in print or electronically (from Amazon and barnesandnoble.com). The book's introduction explains why the theft of key chapters of America's historical narrative, from the Founding to Barack Obama's presidency, have been so costly to the nation and the world.
'America's Stolen Narrative'
From Journalist Robert Parry: When my new book, America's Stolen Narrative, returns from the printers in the next few days, I am setting aside the first 250 copies as part of a critical fundraiser to keep Consortiumnews.com afloat.
Buying 'Justice'
Powerful corporations and right-wing interest groups are taking aim at state judges around the country who have ruled the "wrong" way and who can be tossed out via elections. This new flood of campaign cash is creating a system of justice for the highest bidder, write Bill Moyers and Michael Winship.
Warnings from the Cuban Missile Crisis
Special Report: Amid the trivia of American politics, voters can forget that they are entrusting the winning candidate for President with the nuclear codes, the power to annihilate all life on the planet, a reality that reporter Don North witnessed up close a half century ago in the Cuban missile crisis.
Romney Tests the Limits on Lying
Americans may see themselves as worldly cynics when it comes to political lying, observing that all politicians do it. But Mitt Romney is testing the limits with his ever-shifting positions and outright lies, notes Lawrence Davidson.
The 'Citizens United' Tsunami
The five right-wing justices on the U.S. Supreme Court downplayed how distorting their Citizens United decision would be to American politics. But the tidal wave of campaign cash is now inundating U.S. voters with unchecked factual claims, says Michael Winship.
Silence of the Drones
Exclusive: Even as the United States has withdrawn from Iraq and has begun to wind down the Afghan War, the lethal reach of the U.S. military has been extended into other countries through Predator drones. What is less known is the full human and political costs, writes ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern.
'Lucky' Voters Can Pick Romney
Exclusive: Mitt Romney's political struggles are testing the patience of the Republican presidential nominee and his wife Ann, who tells Americans that they should know how "lucky" they are that her husband is offering himself as the nation's savior. Romney's message to voters is "you're welcome," writes Robert Parry.
The Delusional Mr. Romney
Exclusive: Mitt Romney told supporters behind closed doors that he's disadvantaged because he was born to a rich white family, that he'd have a better chance to win if his dad were a Mexican. It's getting hard to decide if Romney is simply a country-club racist or delusional, writes Robert Parry.

oooor maybe it's because the older we get the higher the likelihood of our deaths, and the lower the possibility of reproduction, however, the younger you are (past puberty into adolescence and just past it), the higher the likelihood of reproduction and fertility (for both sexes, not just women), therefore, i wouldn't say menopause is caused by this, it was most likely around since man had evolved to its' current state, but, it can be said that humanity has become more biologically driven to attempt to mate and reproduce at these ages.....that, ladies and gentlemen, is a logical conjecture, i actually cannot even think of the words to try to show how idiotic their logic is....

Buffalo Bills release veteran CB Florence
An influx of youth in the NFL draft and an expensive contract combined to make veteran cornerback Drayton Florence the odd man out with the Buffalo Bills.
Florence was released by the team on Friday in what was regarded as a mild surprise after Buffalo spent much of the offseason improving what has been a porous defense. Florence is a nine-year NFL veteran, who had 45 starts in 46 games during a three-year stint with the Bills.
He had two years left on his contract and was scheduled to make a base salary of $4 million this season.
Florence took the news in stride in a message posted on his Twitter account. He wrote ''Business is business,'' adding that he's moving on and thanked his fans for their support.
The move came a week after the Bills opened the draft by selecting South Carolina cornerback Stephon Gilmore with the 10th pick. Gilmore is expected to step in and immediately compete for a starting job.
Buffalo already has plenty of experience in its defensive secondary with returning veterans Terrence McGee and Leodis McKelvin, as well as Aaron Williams, a former second-round pick, who had six starts in nine games as a rookie last season.
The Bills also drafted LSU cornerback Ron Brooks in the fourth round last weekend.
General manager Buddy Nix said the decision to release Florence was made to allow other players to develop.
''Our defense has gone through a number of changes since the end of the season, and we feel that it's necessary to give these young corners an opportunity to be in the lineup,'' Nix said in a statement issued by the team.
The Bills gave up a franchise worst 5,938 yards offense and ranked 30th in the NFL in allowing 434 points. Aside from drafting Gilmore, the Bills made a big splash in shoring up their defense by signing free agent defensive end Mario Williams to a six-year, $100 million contract in March.
Florence had seven of his 17 career interceptions with Buffalo. He spent his first five NFL seasons with San Diego, followed by a year in Jacksonville before signing with the Bills in 2009.
