Bidding in the online auction ends at 10 p.m. on Thursday, March 7.
First time, we are offering a small selection of fixed-price parties for you to purchase. Why wait? Score your party tickets now so you can focus on bidding for the rest of the parties, classroom donations, and other goodies at the gala!
Here are some tips and strategies to make the Online Auction a success for both you and Chabot:
- Create an account: You will need to create a login ID and password with ReadySetAuction in order to place a bid.
- Know the bidding rules: Make sure to read and understand the rules for Chabot's Online Auction before you place a bid.

LEDs Magazine recently highlighted an interesting student project involving Shakespeare and LED lighting. Liverpool Hope University student Emma Armstrong took on the enormous task of attempting to recreate lighting conditions on a performing stage during Shakespeare's era using modern lighting technology, that is, light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
Armstrong explains that "lighting" in Shakespeare's day mainly consisted of tallow (pig fat) candles used in lanterns and chandeliers. Her objective, then, was to reproduce the range of color, light, and flame using only LEDs. A difficult and time-consuming task, to say the least.

It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.-John Steinbeck

The trade off is that your rear suspension setup is reliant on the weight of whatever is hanging off the shock, which would now include the "tongue" weight of the trailer. In the world of high performance unsprung weight is far worse than sprung weight, as it compromises the ability of the rear wheel to track over bumps because of added inertia. However subframes are usually not designed for the kind of loads discussed and move the weight higher up on the bike.
If I had the skills I would find a way to hook the trailer to the footpeg mounts. It keeps the weight sprung, at a low, central point on the bike, better bias the front/rear loading etc.
The trade off is this method would be slightly heavier, more complicated, and less flexible in terms of moving the mount from one bike to another,

Like the single-quad combination, the dual-quad small-block received identical Pro Comp aluminum cylinder heads.
Rather than the go the single-carb route, Jesse topped off his 400-inch small-block with a trick dual-quad setup. Compared to the original Edelbrock C-26 dual-quad intake, the RPM Air Gap induction system was 1 5/8-inch taller. Hood clearance was not a problem since both motors were destined for home-built rat rods.
The new RPM Air Gap dual-quad intake offered a significant improvement over the original C-26 intake. Few things look as good as a pair of dual quads, and now Edelbrock has added bite to go with the bark.
406 Small-Block Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap Dual Quad
Who wouldn't be happy with a street engine that pumps out an honest 1 hp per cubic inch, especially when the motor displaces 406ci? Equipped with a set of Pro Comp aluminum heads, a healthy hydraulic roller cam, and the new Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap Dual-Quad intake (with 500-cfm carbs), the 406 produced 406 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. Torque production from the big-inch small-block exceeded 450 lb-ft from 2900 rpm to 4600 rpm. Add to this power production the cool factor that comes only with multiple carburetion and you have an impressive rat rod powerplant.
406 Small-Block Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap Single Quad
This combination clearly demonstrates why dual-plane intakes combined with a single four-barrel carb rule the streets. Equipped with the Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap and 750-cfm carb, this 406 produced 444 hp and 505 lb-ft of torque. In all honesty, it is tough to beat the Air Gap for average power production. This combo netted torque reading that exceeded 450 lb-ft from 2500 rpm to 5300 rpm.
And A One, And A Two...
The results of our comparison show the single four-barrel to be the hot setup, however, as the old advertising escape clause goes, "individual results may vary." An Edelbrock spokesman says its testing has shown the two systems used here to be very similar in power output, and that he was surprised by the 39hp deficit we witnessed for the dual quad. In hindsight, maybe we should have swapped induction systems to see if there were any variances in the two 406s. Still, given our compression ratio, cam, and redline, our trusty old carb-picking formula says 750-cfm should be just about ideal for this engine.

Kim Kardashian Calls the Cops On Unwelcome Visitor
While we were all devouring the season finale of Kourtney and Kim Take New York Season 2, the star of the show, Kim Kardashian, was warding off a stalker! According to TMZ, the 31-year-old celebutante called 911 after a "stranger" mysteriously cropped up at the front gate of her Los Angeles mansion.
And while we're sure Kim is used to the occasional weirdo, it gets creepier: The man had luggage with him and said he had flown in to stay with Kim and work on the reality show with her. Clearly, this was not the case, and after said creepster refused to skedaddle, Kim had to call in authorities, TMZ reports.
What's worse is that this is the Kardashians second run-in with a stalker in the last week. On Jan. 23, an employee at the family's DASH boutique had to call the cops on a "creepy" man who was harassing employees.

The next time you're feeling a craving for chocolate, it might be coming from your brain. According to a study published in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, chocolate works to improve blood flow to the brain in seniors. Among a group of 60 people with an average age of 73, drinking two cups of cocoa per day for 30 days resulted in an 8.3 percent increase in blood flow to the brain, and significant improvement on tests of memory and thinking skills. A control group showed no change over the same period.
No more Methuselahs? Americans say no to much-longer lives
With a rapidly changing medical landscape, the Pew Research Center asked Americans if they would want to live decades longer - to age 120 or beyond - if medical treatments were available to slow aging. A majority, 56 percent, said no, although two-thirds (68 percent) of respondents thought that other people would choose to live the extra decades. The survey did not give any information on how longer age spans would be achieved or how healthy a 120-year-old would be in this scenario. The responses don't mean that Americans would reject longer lives altogether, though. The median age that respondents would like to live to was 90, about 11 years longer than the current American life span.
Famous faces test for dementia
Could you recognize Albert Einstein, Oprah Winfrey and John F. Kennedy? That's the question doctors are asking in a study published in Neurology. Whether patients can recognize and identify celebrities could give doctors a simple way to identify the early signs of dementia in those between the ages of 40 and 65, according to the study, which was conducted by researchers at Northwestern University. Asked to identify 20 celebrities pictured in black-and-white photographs, 27 respondents without early-onset dementia recognize 97 percent of the images and named 93 percent of them, and 30 people with the condition were only able to recognize 79 percent of faces and named fewer than half (46 percent) correctly.
"In addition to its practical value in helping us identify people with early dementia, this test also may help us understand how the brain works to remember and retrieve its knowledge of words and objects," study author Tamar Gefen said.
Eating breakfast makes you healthier
Health experts have long recommended eating a balanced breakfast to provide energy and nutrients to start the day, as well as to maintain a healthy body weight. Now a new study conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health suggests that breakfast can actually stave off heart problems. According to the research, which followed nearly 27,000 men ages 45-82 over 16 years, men who skipped breakfast raised their risk of a heart attack or death from coronary heart disease by 27 percent. The link between breakfast and heart disease persisted even when the study controlled for factors such as diet, exercise and smoking. The breakfast-skippers were more likely to feel hungrier later in the day and more at night, leading researchers to theorize that those eating habits caused metabolic changes and a greater incidence of heart disease. A similar study with women is underway.

One of the very first things we did to "go green" was to ditch those body washes and shower gels that come in plastic containers and go back to good old fashioned, no-waste bar soap. Easy change. A year or so later I decided to see if I could eliminate shampoo and conditioner in plastic bottles as well. That didn't go as smoothly. Let's just say the "no poo" thing wasn't for me. My hair was a hot mess.
I counted the whole experiment as a green fail and moved on with my life, coming to terms with the fact that I'd probably always use shampoo and conditioner. Until, that is, 3 Way Beauty asked me to try their Shhh bar.
Their motto?
"Shampoo, shower and shave. No shit."
It's as easy as that. Use this one little bar to replace your shampoo, your soap and your shaving cream.
To me this seems like the perfect gift for a traveler. Whether you're packing light for a trip to another country, or you're jaunting to the mountains for the weekend and don't want to lug every product you own along.
Shhh makes a great gift for the man in your life because, let's face it, they're not know for their desire to use multiple products when getting ready. When I handed the sample to my husband he mumbled something to the effect of, "Finally, somebody's listening to me."
I loved the soap too. It was nice to have one do-it-all product in the shower - especially one that involved no plastic! I did find that I needed to use my regular shampoo about one a week, but my hair is long, inexplicably thick, coarse and naturally
The Shhh bar comes in a 1.5 oz size for $5 (hello stocking stuffer!) and 6 oz for $17 which, in my opinion, is not a bad price for replacing three products.
Shhh is manufactured in Minnesota by a family-run company in a 100% hydro powered mill. The bars are free of synthetics, preservatives, artificial fragrance and coloring. All packaging is 100% compostable and recyclable, making it a great Green the Season gift!
Of course, I'll be giving away a small Shhh bar this week. There are two ways to enter:
1. Follow 3 Way Beauty on Facebook
2. Follow 3 Way Beauty of Twitter
Just leave me a comment letting me know which one(s) you did. A winner will be chosen next week. Check back to see if you've won, or let me know how to reach you. Good luck!

Key Energy Initiatives
Infrastructure Projects
South Bay Substation Relocation Project
Construction of the Bay Boulevard substation will help meet regional energy needs filling some of the void left with the retirement of the South Bay Power Plant.
Sycamore to Penasquitos 230 kV Transmission Line Project
This proposed project will improve reliability and integration of existing renewable energy into our system.
South Orange County Reliability Enhancement
This project will upgrade decades old infrastructure for the cities of San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente, and unincorporated areas of South Orange county.
Cleveland National Forest Power Line Replacement Projects
These projects will improve safety and reliability by fire hardening the existing electric system running through the Cleveland National Forest and surrounding communities.
ECO Substation Project
This project includes building the new ECO Substation, rebuilding the existing Boulevard Substation, constructing a transmission line, and linking with the existing Southwest Powerlink.
Pipeline Safety Enhancement Plan
The safety of our customers, employees and the communities we serve is our top priority. This includes the 14,000 miles of natural gas pipeline that we manage. Reflecting that commitment to safety, we construct, operate, and maintain our pipeline system to meet or exceed applicable federal and state regulations and requirements. SDG&E routinely performs various pipeline safety and maintenance tasks, including patrolling, inspecting, testing, repairing and replacing pipelines.
New Pilot Program

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
For those interested, Slackware 8.1 was released earlier in the evening.
I wouldn't count on being able to get into the main FTP site any
time in the near future, but it is slowly trickling out to mirrors.
http://www.slackware.com has the official announcement and boxed
set ordering information.
alt.os.linux.slackware newsgroup will probably be most up to date
on what mirrors have the new release.
I installed Slackware 8.1 RC3 just a few days ago on a new machine
and I have to say it's pretty sweet. A little extra tweaking on the
XWindows and sound configuration, but nothing that a Google Groups
search or the HOWTOs didn't cover.

We investigate whether children with Grammatical Specific Language Impairment ( G- SLI) are also phonologically impaired and, if so, what the nature of that impairment is. We focus on the prosodic complexity of words, based on their syllabic and metrical ( stress) structure, and investigate this using a novel non- word repetition procedure, the Test of Phonological Structure ( TOPhS). Participants with G- SLI ( aged 12 - 20 years) were compared to language- matched, typically developing children ( aged 4 8 years). The results reveal that, in contrast to the controls, the accuracy with which the G- SLI group repeated non- words decreased as prosodic complexity increased, even in non- words with only one- and two- syllables. The study indicates that, in G- SLI, complexity deficits in morphology and syntax can extend to prosodic phonology. The study highlights the importance of taking into account prosodic complexity in phonological assessment and the design of non- word repetition procedures.

Customer Reviews of Panasonic Viera TC-P55ST30 55" 3D Plasma HDTV 1080p 600Hz
If you're looking for that great plasma picture quality (deep blacks, true colors), truly smooth motion that no LED can replicate (600hz refresh), and 3D technology (plasmas do 3D better than any other technology available), this is the best bang for your buck, bar none. To get a TV equivalent to this in an LED, you'd spend $2000. At $1100, this is a great deal. The screen has a relatively good anti-reflective screen, making it better in natural light settings than most of the high end LEDs that have all moved to reflective screens to increase contrast ratios. I highly recommend this TV.
Like everyone else interested in making the big screen purchase, I spent hours every night reading reviews, shopping around, comparing specs and prices, and trying to decide whether I should go lcd or plasma. Ultimately, I ended up just going to the local BB and seeing which one looked and felt right to me. I purchased this beautiful 55in plasma and I couldn't be happier about it. I've had it for over two weeks now and I don't have a single complaint. The picture is great and the sound is just fine for my living space(apartment). The 2D-3D conversion is alright but you should not expect much from any television's conversion. The 3D Blu-Ray is a different story - The Ultimate Wave Tahiti is AMAZING (I had to watch it twice because I didn't follow a word because I was so blown away by the picture) and Resident Evil Afterlife was fun to watch (the 3D at least). I realized that all the hours I spent reading super detailed reviews was somewhat a waste of time because when it comes down to it, I don't really care about or even notice the subtle differences that so many people compare. I just wanted a solid tv with great picture at an affordable price and this was it. The setup was beyond easy. The remote and on-screen menus are very user-friendly. The widgets all work just fine. Watching youtube videos on a 55in can be entertaining. My roommate and I are traveling surfers and licensed skydivers so we have plenty of GoPro HD videos that we watch on this tv using the SD card slot(we also watch them through the youtube widget)and they look phenomenal.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

Assuming you haven't plugged it in to a network with a DHCP server, these are the default addresses on the ports. But if the system has been plugged-in and is on a network with DHCP, it's already grabbed Ips and you need to do the control panel gig to figure out what they are.

My new band collapsed...

My new band collapsed...
Im still scratching my head on this one. The band I formed recently just fell apart in a matter of hours through text messages. Here is what happened. We were renting a practice studio. Small, no A/C and very loud, we had to were ear plugs because of the size and layout of the place. Now last Sunday the owner said he need our time slot. No problem but we all have families etc so we can only play at that time. We locate another studio 2 mile away, same price BUT...2 drum sets, A/C base cab, amps, the works and larger. When the owner of the first studio finds out he flips and somehow moves things around and gets out spot back. BUT, me. the bass and the rhythm guy really want to go to the new spot anyway. ( He says he busted his ass to get us our time back, Really? Just a few calls I think). Now, he is not a member of the band, not a manager, not anything, just someone we rented a space from. So, the singer and lead ( brother and sister) tell us "well, hes a friend and we don't want to move out". I don't care if hes your dad, the place sucked! Also, for free the rhythm guy offered his basement studio ( he is wealthy, COO of a fortune 400 company, 7500 square ft house, top notch gear and drums, I didn't ask about it because I didn't want him to think we were using him for that). They went on about their commitment to the first guy and long story short, they quit the band!?!?!?!?! Im not sure what happened, the band showed promise but they were like a couple of cult member to this guy. still have my other band and the remaining three of us will work on a trio for now.

Dear Newsletter Reader
With Easter behind us, many of you will begin to start thinking about your summer holidays in Tuscany.
This months newsletter will look at the tricky question of "what to do with the children in Tuscany". Visiting the spectacular Cities of Florence, Pisa and Siena are high on the list of parents choice of things to do, but dont always rate highly with the children. Why not start involving your children in the planning of your holiday now by getting them some fantastic books aimed at children about Tuscany that will whet their appetite and encourage them to actually want to go round that Museum or Art Gallery with you!
Tuscany for Children
Tuscany is a magical place full of Castles, History and Culture. Whilst this often gains the attention of adults, children around the world can be heard saying "I dont want to go to a stuffy museum". With some ideas and tips in this months newsletter, we are hoping that those of you that are venturing to Tuscany with your family in tow, can survive some cultural and historical visits with everyone happy at the end. Of course you will still have to provide lots of Italian ice-cream and pizzas but you may just get to see some of the things that you want to see without too many complaints! (
Please note that all suggested books below were available to buy from the online book retailer Amazon at the time of the publishing this newsletter)
If you are planning to visit any of the museums in Florence during your stay, make sure you book your museum tickets in advance through one of the
recognised agencies
- no advanced ticket for the Uffizi Gallery can mean 2-3 hours wait in a queue in July and August!
A good way to explore the city with children is to use the
'hop on, hop off'
tour buses that operate in a number of languages with English always being available with an audio guide and headset. The ticket for the tour bus lasts for 24 hours which is plenty of time to see as much of Florence as possible. Stops include the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Boboli Gardens and Pitti Palace. There is also another route covering the lesser known areas of Florence and on out to the Etruscan city of Fiesole.
If Florence is where you want to explore, then make sure you pack the 'Kids Go Europe - Treasure Hunt Florence' book. This is aimed at children from aged 8 upwards but adults will find that you will discover parts of Florence you would normally miss using just the 'adult' guidebooks. The book is designed to give some historical information in small chunks for the children with spaces for them to add their own notes or even sketch their version of the statue of David. It also makes a great journal/scrap book for them to record their trip to Florence.
Collodi is a lesser known area of Tuscany but is famous as the birthplace of Pinocchio. The original story of Pinocchio was a weekly cartoon in a local newspaper that became a series of books and of course, most famously, a Disney movie. In Collodi the
Pinocchio Park
is more true to the original version rather than the Disney character but children will love to explore the park and the story of the naughty boy is little changed, whichever version you prefer. Various factsheets on Pinocchio state that the story is reputed to be the second most widely published book in the world after the Bible.
For your children, you may want to watch the DVD before travelling or buy The Authentic Story of Pinocchio of Tuscany by Carlo Collodi and Roberto Gabani
In Pisa, children love everything about the Leaning Tower, whether its having their photos taken in just the right spot so that it looks like they are holding up the Tower or whether it is getting dizzy racing up the stairs to the top! As in Florence,
booking your ticket
in advance saves lots of time and also disappointment as during the height of the tourist season, some days all visiting times for the tower tour are sold out.
Leonardo da Vinci is possibly the most famous Italian throughout history and in his home town of Vinci you will find a fabulous
depicting his early life, his inventions and copies of his art work. For older children the "Leonardo da Vinci for Kids: His Life and Ideas, 21 Activities" is a fascinating book for them to read and try the activities before travelling - after all his designs include diving suits, helicopters and hang-gliders which were not formally invented until years after his death. For adults who need to brush up on their knowledge of Leonardo da Vinci, the Dummies Guide Series of books have one called "Da Vinci for Dummies".
The Magic Tree series of "Merlin Mission" books, has one called "Monday with a Mad Genius" which transports the characters, Jack and Annie, back to Renaissance times where they need to spend the day with non other than Leonardo da Vinci.
Insider Information:
The owner of To Tuscany has children of his own and was featured in an online magazine asking for his own tips on things to do with children in Tuscany. You can read the article
for more activities your children can take part in.
Dont forget
that the To Tuscany website has lots of information about things to do with
children in Tuscany and Umbria.
We also have a fantastic section on our website where you can build your own personal
online, dont miss it, its all free information for you.
Feel free to contact us with any questions regarding travelling to Italy or anything within our newsletter. We can be reached at

Tony Martin (born 1942) was an American professor of Africana Studies at Wellesley College who retired in June 2007 as professor emeritus (a status the college confers automatically on all retiring professors) after 34 years of distinguished service to the Africana Studies Department where he was a founding member. A lecturer and prolific author of scholarly articles about Black History, primarily the Black Nationalist leader Marcus Garvey, his written works and statements about the involvement and responsibility of Jews in the American slave trade, which echo allegations made by the Nation of Islam, have been a source of ongoing controversy.
Martin began his teaching career at the University of Michigan-Flint, the Cipriani Labour College (Trinidad) and St. Mary's College (Trinidad). He began teaching at Wellesley in 1973, became tenured in 1975, and became a full professor in 1979.
He is also a barrister-at-law from Gray's Inn, London.
Dr. Martin is a prolific author of scholarly articles on many aspects of Black History and has lectured all over the world.,. He has received awards and honors from the American Philosophical Society, the Association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations and many others.
This incident prompted Counterpoint, a joint MIT-Wellesley student publication, to ask student Avik Roy to write a "retrospective chronicling the controversy surrounding Martin since his arrival as associate professor in 1973". According to Roy, the sense among the staff was he would be less biased, since he was an MIT student.
In the end, the judge ruled that Martin did not meet his burden of proof on 4 out of 5 necessary components for proving libel
One of Martin's earliest works is Race First: The Ideological and Organizational Struggles of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, published in 1976.
He has also written a number of other books about Garvey, including Marcus Garvey Hero: A First Biography, African Fundamentalism : A Literary and Cultural Anthology of Garvey's Harlem Renaissance, Literary Garveyism: Garvey, Black Arts and the Harlem Renaissance, The Poetical Works of Marcus Garvey, and The Pan- African Connection: From Slavery to Garvey and Beyond.
He co-authored, with Wendy Ball, Rare Afro-Americana: A Reconstruction of the Adger Library
NPR, the New York Times, the Boston Globe, Associated Press among others, covered the controversial choice.
In Martin's view,
"In January 1993, I was minding my own business and teaching my Wellesley College survey course on African American History when a funny thing happened. The long arm of Jewish intolerance reached into my classroom. Unknown to me, three student officers of the Jewish Hillel organization (campus B'nai B'rith stablemates of the Anti-Defamation League), sat in on my class and remained for a single period only. Their purpose was to monitor my presentation...The book documents the considerable Jewish involvement in the transatlantic African slave trade, the dissemination of which knowledge they, as Jews, considered an "anti-Semitic" and most "hateful" act. .
Organizations were upset by the use of these materials, which assert that Jews had a disproportionately large role in the Atlantic slave trade.
"the most pristine example we have in the world today of a classic HNIC...Whenever the other folks have wanted anybody to beat the rest of the race over the head with, Brer Gates has been on the scene, like an HNIC machine. They gave him an unprecedented full page op-ed in the New York Times to attack the Nation of Islam's Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews. This op-ed was actually typeset in the shape of a Star of David. There is no evidence that Gates even read the book, but he pulled together some platitudes attacking it anyway.
Martin's response, The Jewish Onslaught, placed the attacks against him in the context of Black-Jewish relations during the Civil Rights era and throughout history. It was praised by a number of reviewers. Dr. Molefi Asante of Temple University called the book the best polemic by an African since the 1829 classic, David Walker's Appeal. Dr. Raymond Winbush of Vanderbilt University compared it to W.E.B. DuBois' Souls of Black Folk The Jewish scholar Steve Bloom wrote that "Martin shows that he has been the victim of a vicious slander campaign by those who use a Jewish identity demagogically....
However, the Chair of Martin's department at Wellesley, Professor Selwyn R. Cudjoe, labelled Martin's book "Gangsta history, meant to demean and to defame others and to bring them into disrepute, rather than to enlighten and to lead us to a more complex and sophisticated understanding of social phenomena. It ought to be labeled anti-Semitic." The majority of the Wellesley faculty signed a statement condemning Martin's work as "for its racial and ethnic stereotyping and for its anti-Semitism."
The American Historical Association, America's largest historical society, founded in 1884, issued a statement condemning the accuracy and tone of Martin's work: "The AHA deplores any misuse of history that distorts the historical record to demonize or demean a particular racial, ethnic, or cultural group. The Association therefore condemns as false any statement alleging that Jews played a disproportionate role in the exploitation of slave labor or in the Atlantic slave trade." Martin was also criticized in a statement by the President of Wellesley College.
Martin also served as a witness for German Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel in front of the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal. When interviewed by Ashahed M. Muhammad (author of "The Synagogue of Satan", a book that claims that Jews are agents of Satan), for his Revisionist "Truth Establishment Institute, Martin noted, "I read the materials they sent me from his website, including a pamphlet (I think the title was something like, "Did Six Million Really Die?" which he had apparently republished, if I remember right. I stated in my brief to the tribunal that I had never studied the Jewish holocaust and had no basis for an opinion one way or another on the numbers involved. But the pamphlet seemed to me to fall within the normal range of scholarly revisionism. I pointed out that revisionism is at the very core of the historical profession and it seemed unwise to persecute people for differing historical analysis. The pamphlet asserts that the Holocaust never occurred.

The Nintendo 3DS got off to a slow start after launching earlier in the year. Nintendo responded by instituting a price drop in August, bringing the system down to $170 from its original $250 price point. With 3DS sales on the rebound, Nintendo said today that first-year sales for the handheld are now on track to outpace those of the Nintendo DS's in the US.
Nintendo's comments came as part of NPD's monthly US retail sales recap. For the month of October, the 3DS sold 250,000 units in the US, bringing total sales for the handheld through the month to 1.65 million units in the region. By comparison, the original DS sold 2.37 million units during its first 12 months on the market, Nintendo said.
The 3DS goes into the holiday season with a couple of big-name releases. Super Mario 3D Land, due out this weekend, has already received a positive critical reception, and Mario Kart 7 is slated to follow on December 4. The publisher had also planned to release Kid Icarus: Uprising for the 3DS this year, but it has since been delayed to 2012.
Beyond 3DS sales, Nintendo also revealed the hardware performance of the Wii and DS. Wii sales actually grew 8 percent year-over-year to nearly 250,000 units, while the DS line of systems saw a 23 percent sales growth to 180,000 units.

Hi, Jerry:
Does this "spare 520" have IBM i (i5/OS) installed and running on it
already? If so, it should be possible to use Operations Navigator or
STRSST to create a second partition and then load and run Linux in that
Or, are you talking about trying to load Linux on "the bare machine"?

By now, the news of playback singer Chinmayi Sripada and actor Rahul Ravindran's marriage might have reached everyone. It was the singer's mother Padmahasini who first made an official announcement on Twitter and later the love birds posted the pictures of each other on the micro blogging site.
Chinmayi met Rahul for the first time at the special screening of 'Andala Rakshasi' in Chennai. While Rahul played the lead role, Chinmayi dubbed for the female lead Lavanya. They appreciated each other's work in the movie and later began tweeting each other. They found compatibility in the aspects like both being vegetarians and teetotaler's, apart from sharing the same family values, ethics and lifestyle. Finally, both of them decided to marry early next year with the consent of their parents.
In fact, Chinmayi admits they are currently maintaining a long-distance relationship and feels theirs will be a long distance marriage too as Rahul shifted his base to Hyderabad because of Telugu film assignments and she wishes to live in Chennai itself in future. Send your good wishes to these lovely couple!

Edwards, Busted
The National Enquirer catches him.
Suckers! Part XVIII: John McCain met privately with some Clinton supporters in the diehard group Party Unity My Ass, and tried to wobble his way into their hearts:
"He stayed for a good almost half hour afterwards shaking hands, listening to our concerns, talking to us," said PUMA founder Will Bower, who said he thought many of the people there would vote for McCain.
Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina stayed to mingle with the crowd, whose members also included Clinton backer Harriet Christian, made momentarily famous on YouTube for getting ejected from the Rules & Bylaws press area.
Bower said he'd liked McCain's answer on judges, in which he "pointed out that he supported Bill Clinton with both Ginsberg [sic] and Breyer." [E.A.]
You actually believed that stuff about Roberts, Alito and Scalia? [McCain could easily support Ginsburg and Breyer's confirmation--maybe on the grounds that they were the best Republicans could expect from Clinton--even if he wouldn't nominate them himself--ed True. But this is the sort of leftward wink that will drive conservatives crazy, with reason. Do you really think McCain wants to appoint another Alito to the Court? Or does he want he want to appoint Lindsey Graham?] ... P.S.: If McCain keeps this up for two months, the Republican convention could be more interesting than expected. ... P.P.S.: The late convention seems like a problem for McCain--if he's inhibited from moving to the center by a fear of prompting televised discord and disruption in Minneapolis in September. (Obama seems much less inhibited--his party is not as restive.) ... It's hard to believe Dick Morris hasn't already made this point. ... P.P.P.S.: Are there cougars in PUMA? ... 1:01 A.M.
Friday, June 13, 2008
More Friends of Angelo? Dodd, Conrad, Shalala. ... Holbrooke! ... 12:31 P.M.
Will Obama Kill Bling? Mary Battiata thinks maybe. ... Now that she mentions it, I kind of hope Obama's election will kill off much of hip-hop, at least the gangsta-inspired parts. But just killing off bling and gangsta fashion would be a start. ... 3:08 A.M. link
Obama's new anti-smear website looks more effective than I expected. ... And I'll be checking back regularly to find out the latest charges! It's the new go-to spot for Obama dirt. ...P.S.: That's the problem. The site creates an expectation that the Obama camp will respond quickly and persuasively to every accusation and rumor. Should it fall short, the damage will be magnified, no? ... P.P.S. Obama recently chastised reporters for asking him about the Michelle "whitey" rumor:
"We have seen this before. There is dirt and lies that are circulated in e-mails, and they pump them out long enough until finally you, a mainstream reporter, asks me about it," Obama said, bristling. "That gives legs to the story."

Those who have been following (if there are) my blog, you probably would have noticed by now my so much gusto for the movie The Beach, which was based on a novel of the same title by author Alex Garland and made famous by then-26-year-old Leonardo di Caprio (he's turning 39 this year).
The flick depicts a paradise in Phuket's Maya Bay that I swore to my ancestors' graves that I will lay my eyes upon it someday. Having dreamt of visiting the place for the longest time, imagine my horror when I finally set foot on this
secret infamous paradise.
Overcrowded and filthy. There's very little space where you can swim. When you get to find the perfect spot, you'd feel icky when you step on a diaper or other sorts of trash. Maya Bay is a deceitful piece of crap. Or maybe I just went there at the wrong time or season perhaps. Paradise was a lie. Frustrating, disappointing.
I asked around. Apparently, it happens to a lot of travelers too. That fact is sometimes indeed fiction, that truth is just sugarcoated with lies and deceptions, that there are things that are not really not meant to happen no matter what. And look what I came up with, the top not-postcard worthy and bitch-slapping realities of traveling as told by the Pinoy Travel Bloggers.
TRAVEL EXPECTATION vs. REALITY
EXPECTATION: You must look good on your photos and so you must bring along with you your best sets of travel clothes.
EXPECTATION: You can live in the hotel suite you just booked because it looks heaven in photos.
EXPECTATION: You think of the world as a large Wi-Fi zone. You can post your live feed of whatevs you're doing in Sydney.
EXPECTATION: You're in Rome and you overpaid for a set of authentic Italian meal.
EXPECTATION: You can always ask a stranger to take a picture of you or pose along with you as you flash off that peace sign.
EXPECTATION: You're cruising on an ancient junk built since God-knows-when.
EXPECTATION: Your friends will melt out of jealousy if they see photos of your glamorous First-World vacation.
EXPECTATION: A welcoming committee is waiting at the airport for your arrival.
EXPECTATION: Amazing historic sites and iconic landmarks that not all are blessed to see.
EXPECTATION: You have waited for this event your whole damn life. You'd run a marathon, you'd cross seven seas, you'd reach for the stars just to ensure nothing ruins this moment.
EXPECTATION: You're taking a quick break from your backpacking.
EXPECTATION: The grey skies will clear up, the seemingly-ceaseless downpour will come to an end. It can't ruin your trip.
These and that are just some of the things that people don't see on your photos once you hit that upload button of your Facebook or Instagram account. But do we stop from exploring places to continue filling up our fun memory bank because of these failed expectations and harsh realities? Nah. These only keep us from craving for more. Sometimes, fact needs to be fiction for us to stop hoping for the best then be crushed when things don't happen as we want them to be. Traveling is best enjoyed when we have less things to think about, when there is no baggage that we need to carry.
Expect less, travel more.

Not that CHUD is some kind of untouchable sacred cow, it's actually a ruthless piece of shit but a very likable ruthless piece of shit at that. Dread Central just reported a rumor first suggested by Billboard.com that one of Zombie's projects in development is a movie about a certain cannibal race of humaoid underground dwellers. He wouldn't comment one way or the other on it, and it doesn't necessarily mean that he's doing it but not commenting is more or less like saying "I can neither confirm nor deny that I enjoy food" because everybody enjoys food.
What was I talking about?
The last time I bagged on old Rob in my review of his dismal Halloween remake, I got, like, five thousand angry emails from people with not much else to say than "d00d u r such a faget 4 not liken Hallowen!!!!11″ and "michele myers killzzzzz u fagot" but I really couldn't care less. He looked promising after The Devil's Rejects. He somehow managed to make a very exciting, repulsive, morally reprehensible and thoroughly enjoyable movie without a single likable character. His future was bright. Then he tripped up and remade Halloween and if this rumor is true he'll be remaking another movie. Rob Zombie's career is beginning to look like nothing but the fulfilment of a boyhood fantasy about being Alice Cooper, evident in his last album, Educated Horses and being the director of all of his favorite movies.
Seriously. What a waste of potential. I'm sure we'll learn all this stuff about CHUDs that we didn't know from the original movie. How their parents were meth addicted rednecks and the whole thing will be set to Molly Hatchet.

The spectacular "Alligator House" comes from buildingstudio, a team with an impressive portfolio from LA. Its design really stands out, as the facade resembles the shape of an alligator head. The place was built in order to help some of the Katrina refugees. Here is a specialized description from the architects: "This 13-ft. wide home is based on a common typology in the New Orleans area: the "Single", meaning a one-family shotgun residence designed to fit the long narrow lots typical in the City. Metal grate steps stretch across the front of the house for casual sitting while visiting with neighbors." "
The street-facade is clad in translucent white insulated plastic panels which are backlit to provide indirect lighting both for the exterior and interior living area. The second bedroom has a rolling wall along the hallway to open it up when privacy is not a concern. While considered low-cost, the budget still allows for engineered hardwood flooring and ceramic tile in the bathrooms. Exterior walls and roof are clad in factory-painted, preformed metal siding for ease of maintenance". Don't you find it inspiring to see a social project done well?

WOW , what an amazingly original design. How creative!!
Kinda makes you wish for another hurricane. (I said kinda.)
This is stunning! Would love to know what "affordable" means, though…how much??
It's a nice modern design, but maybe a little out of place in a southern-charm town like New Orleans. The lighting is great but I don't know how you would stay asleep in the bedroom with so much natural light coming in.
[…] Alligator House : Affordable Abode in New Orleans […]
I totally agree with you scott…. great design and I could see some of these throughout new orleans between the typical shotgun homes… but not a whole neighborhood filled with these… it just wouldnt be new orleans…

Water quality sampling tests may be removed from the secluded Cliftonville beach at Walpole Bay where two poor quality readings were taken in 2011.
But Thanet District Council said even without the tests visitors and residents should continue to swim in the sea.
Cllr Iris Johnston, cabinet member for community services said: "People swim at Walpole Bay all the time and we won't be putting up signs to warn them off. The water quality at Margate and Botany Bay either side of Walpole Bay is absolutely fine.
"The last testing at Walpole Bay was in 2011. Since then the majority of the 20 readings showed the standard of water to be excellent."
A public consultation that considered a proposal to remove testing drew 89 responses which have been passed on to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra)for consideration, along with the beach user surveys undertaken by the Environment Agency during the summer of 2012.
Defra will then determine whether water sampling is removed at this beach.
The Environment Agency has not been able to identify the specific reasons as to why there were two poor water quality readings three years ago.
Since that time overall water quality at Walpole Bay has met the required standard and the majority of the 20 readings taken since were "excellent".
A council spokesman said: "Many residents and visitors enjoy this secluded bay and value the tidal pool as it provides a superb safe swimming area with a variety of marine life that can be easily observed once the tide goes out.
"The council welcomes this use and wants visitors to continue to enjoy the beach and pool.
"We understand local businesses benefit from their location next to the bay and we want to do what we can to encourage more people to visit.
"If water sampling is removed, the beach would remain open and members of the public could still swim here."
There are eight beaches across Thanet which do not have water sample tests taken, but are still visited and used for swimming.
If water sampling continues at Walpole Bay, in summer 2015 the council is "almost certain" to be required to display signs on the beach advising members of the public not to swim – even though water quality meets the current required standard.
This is due to the introduction of new stricter European regulations which consider water quality at the beach up to four years ago.
The spokesman added: "The council is concerned a sign advising members of the public against swimming could impact upon the confidence of all visitors who use the beach."
Signs are displayed across all of Thanet's beaches if there is an incident affecting water quality.
Water quality would continue to be monitored at Botany Bay and Margate Main Sands, which are close enough to identify any significant issues.
If the numbers of people swimming in the sea at Walpole Bay significantly increased in the future, an application could be submitted to Defra to reinstate water sample tests.
Walpole Bay is cleaned on a regular basis during the summer season – increasing cleaning at the beach would not directly improve the quality of the water.

Reviews for the MSI GT783-625US
Source: Gadgetmix
Battery life is commendable at 3 hrs 29 mins of moderate use , an hour longer than the M17x manages. This machine is a lifestyle choice – its superlative input devices, premium sound system and herculean performance all justify its price. And with these components it's about as future-proof as anything out there.

True gaming-class notebooks don't come cheap, and the MSI GT783-625US is no exception, but it does offer very good graphics and productivity performance at a price that won't break the bank. And, it's not just a black box with fast parts inside; the neat lighting effects give it some attitude and the SteelSeries keyboard and Dynaudio sound system might just make you forget about your desktop PC altogether. Throw in a sturdy aluminum chassis and a dynamite HD display, and we're happy to give the MSI our Editors' Choice for under-$3,000 gaming laptops. You may want to crank up those excellent speakers to drown out the fan noise though.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580M:
High-end mobile GPU based on a the GF114 chip with all shaders enabled.
These graphics cards are able to play the latest and most demanding games in high resolutions and full detail settings with enabled Anti-Aliasing.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
2670QM: Fast Quad-core processor clocked at 2.2-3.1 GHz based on the Sandy Bridge architecture with an integrated graphics card and dual-channel DDR3 memory controller. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
17.3": Meanwhile the 17 inch display size is a more frequently offered standard format for desktop-replacements. The DTR-laptops can't be carried easily, need much energy but on the other side texts can be read easily and high resolutions are no problem. DTR mainly are intended for stationary usage on desks, where the weight and the energy need are unimportant.
» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
3.9 kg: This laptop is heavy below average, compared with the average of notebooks. Therefore especially desktop replacements fit in this class of weight.
MSI: Micro-Star International (MSI), is a Taiwan based computer hardware manufacturer since 1986 best known for desktop computer motherboards. MSI also designs and manufactures graphics cards, barebone PCs, notebook computers, networking products, servers, multimedia, consumer electronics, and storage devices. MSI, as most Taiwanese computer manufacturers, sells products on OEM/ODM basis. It also sells products worldwide based on its own brand name "MSI". The market share of laptops with the MSI brand is rather low.
80%: This rating is not convincing. The laptop is evaluated below average, this is not really a recommendation for purchase.

The Bachelor
Bachelor 2013: Was Lindsay Yenter a Better Choice for Sean Lowe?
Sean Lowe bid adieu to his main squeeze Lindsay Yenter during the emotional Bachelor Season 17 finale, and we're still in shock. Not as in shocked as that poor elephant who was forced to cart Sean's all over Thailand, but still. There's no doubt that Sean and Catherine Giudici make an adorable couple, but we can't help thinking that he broke up with the potential love of his life when he sent Lindsay packing. Check out 5 reasons why this adorable army brat was the best pick for Sean!
1. Their Chemistry Was Off the Charts
Sean and Lindsay could barely keep their hands off each other during The Bachelor love journey — and by hands we mean lips. And by lips we mean tongues. Basically, these two spent their waking hours licking each other, and it was magical. Sean and Catherine also had amazing chemistry, but Sean and Lindsay's love affair was explosive. Kind of like that feeling you get when you pop a fresh maggot into your mouth, you know?
2. She's Great With Kids
It's no secret that Sean is ready to impregnate his lady love and pop out a bunch of kiddos, and Lindsay just so happens to be amazing with children. This bombshell works as an early childhood education teacher, and was more than ready to start a family with Sean. She just wanted to propagate his man seed and raise his youngins' in the prairies of Dallas, sob. They would have called each other Mawmaw and Peepaw, guys....
3. She Wanted to Put Down Roots In Dallas
Catherine is smitten with Sean, but she seems pretty settled in her hometown of Seattle. This glamorous lady is a city girl at heart, and we're worried she won't be completely at home in Dallas. Lindsay, on the other hand, has moved all over the USofA thanks to her dad's job in the military, and she was fully on board with settling down with Sean in The Lone Star State! Girlfriend might be slightly more willing n' ready to adapt to a new lifestyle than Catherine.
4. She's Friends With the Man Upstairs
Sean and Lindsay finally came face-to-face in the "After The Final Rose" special, and all they could talk about was praying. He was praying, she was praying, they're both still praying, basically God is just like "I GET IT, you have all the feelings!" Clearly, Lindsay lives a very religious life style which totally meshes with Sean's. After all, this is a dude who reads the Bible even more frequently than we read 50 Shades of Grey.
5. They Had So Much Fun Together
Sean's made it clear that he wants to fall in love with someone who he can be goofy with (because apparently he's just a ball of fun...), and for a while it seemed like that someone was Lindsay. These two had so much in common, giggled non-stop whenever they were around each other, and need we remind you of the time they paddled around on that raft and looked at things through fake binoculars? We were WTF-ing ourselves silly, but hey — they were having a blast!
Do you think Sean should have picked Lindsay? Sound off in the comments!

Yes there is a ssh/scp config file. It is .ssh/config. I'm
forced to use it when I'm at the library so I can tunnel
via Tor (the library firewall blocks outgoing ssh/scp port 22.)
So you should be able to add your values to this config file.

Giles Price's stunning photographs of the Olympics mid-construction are must-see
With the world just about recovering from a summer spent being wonderfully bombarded with Olympic mania, to mention the games yet again has to take something pretty damn good. But rather fortunately, pretty damn good describes exactly Giles Price's aerial photographs creatively documenting the construction of the Olympic site.
Putting a brand new light on the Olympics, using ultra advanced camera technology Giles was able to document – on an impressively elevated level – the huge physical effort behind this iconic summer. Capturing the intricacies and the precision of such an almighty task and making you see the Olympic Park as you have never seen it before, Giles' photographs are absolutely stunning.
