Custom Logo Mousepads and Promotional Mouse Pads; Imprinted With Your Logo
Personalized mousepads are the fashion statement of the desk. The colors, designs and schemes make them a bright (or funny) point on any desktop.
Custom printed mousepads are an easily transportable client gift. They don't take up much room on the airplane, in the car or in the briefcase. You can send them out with your team and they won't be a burden to carry.
Of course, as with any promotional products, the key is popularity and use. Promotional mouse pads are great as folks always seem to gravitate to these. They are exchangeable and replaceable (spillage)….in some ways, they are a commodity.
So have plenty available and consider different style and colors with your brand.
Call us now at 1-888-788-0101 and we can guide you through our great selection of imprinted mouse pads. If you give us your ideas, we'll give you options.

Why the Cleveland Browns Need to Stay The Course Regardless of Investigation
With the 2015 NFL Draft quickly approaching, the distractions and noise surrounding...
By Sam Ingro
Senior Writer
At just 5'9″ and 185 pounds, the phrase "big things come in small packages" just might be fitting of Cleveland Browns third-year cornerback, Buster Skrine. After drafting Leon McFadden out of San Diego State in the 2013 NFL Draft and acquiring former Atlanta Falcon Chris Owens in free agency, it appeared Skrine would be resigned to the bench for the rest of his career in Cleveland.
After losing Dimitri Patterson in the 2012 season, Skrine was prematurely vaulted into a starting role opposite of Joe Haden. The idea of going after a second-year small-school corner was obviously more tempting to opposing quarterbacks than trying to attack an established corner like Haden, and the results spoke for themselves. Skrine was victimized regularly while posting 85 tackles and 11 passes defended. For every solid play he made, it seemed he would surrender another big play, to the chagrin of Browns fans everywhere.
Now, thanks to minor injuries to Owens and McFadden, Skrine has been launched into a starting role in the Browns' defense. While last season that may have been a thought that could make Cleveland fans shudder, this year, Skrine is turning heads for positive reasons. His improved play was on full display against the St. Louis Rams last Thursday, as he held their young receiving core in check while he was on the field.
"I'm becoming a smarter player," Skrine said. "The game has slowed down for me. I've studied a lot of film in the off-season and a lot of it is route recognition and I can recognize a lot of routes now."
With Skrine playing more aggressive, he has been excelling in new defensive coordinator Ray Horton's scheme, and his improvement has not gone unnoticed by head coach Rob Chudzinski.
"He has really improved from the spring," said Chudzinski. "He's a young guy and a guy that just works every single day. He's one of the hardest workers on the team and is a super competitive guy. He takes a lot of pride in what he does. You can see it show on the field. He had a number of times where he got his hands on the ball today."
"I've seen him make plays and he looks good in all those areas to me," Chudzinski went on to say. "I think they're the same. The quarterback sees the slot. That's always his first move and it's the closest (to him). At the slot, you have to be a lot quicker and you have to be able to move side to side better…Outside at corner, you have to put your big boy pads on because there are bigger receivers out there and you have to rely on your technique, especially when you're a smaller player."
In Horton's scheme, the cornerbacks are taught to play essentially with their hair on fire. The corners are to bait quarterbacks into mistakes while still being accountable for their man on the outside. The pressure applied by the secondary allows an extra second or two for the front seven to effectively rush the passer, a perfect balance of complementary football, a style that Skrine feels he will fit fare much better in.
"I feel like my style of cornerback is that I like to jump routes," said Skrine. "I like to be aggressive. Joe is also an aggressive player who makes a lot of plays. I feel like I'm good on underneath routes. I just feel like I'm a good player…I'm always looking to compete and challenge every route," he stated. "I just want to do the best I can."

Britney Spears is one of the richest people in entertainment, but for some reason Brit spends money like she's a member of the Honey Boo Boo family.
Despite having made over $10 million last year alone, Britney's shopping history is all Kmart, IHOP and 7-11. Money can't buy you class. Ain't THAT true.
TMZ somehow obtained docs of Britney's cash flow from last year and while she spent a whopping $6.8 million, it was all on random poor-people stuff!
$63.74 at a 99 Cents Plus
$11.92 at Pay 99 Cents or Less
Multiple tabs from Subway, Wetzel's Pretzels, Domino's, IHOP, 7-11, El Pollo Loco, McDonald's, In-N-Out, Coffee Bean, Starbucks and Romano's Macaroni Grill.
Britney shops where you shop! You might run into her at a McDonald's in Hollywood! Lucky you!
She also gave a $1,500 handout to her sister's baby daddy Casey Aldridge, which seems generous, but Britney made $10 million last year! $1,500 could fall out of her pocket while she's shopping at 7-11 and she'd never notice!

But players appreciate ability of Padres bench coach to get fired up when necessary
As the bench coach, Renteria is a keen observer, a seer of little things that others might overlook or ignore. Astute as Renteria is at picking up tiny tics and tendencies of opponents, Black said, he's also well-attuned to his own players.
"Ricky's a very good detective," said Black. "He'll come to me about a player and say, 'Have you seen this?' Whether it's something in their play, or they need a day off, or he thinks they're ready to get hot and it's time to play 'em, or if something's bothering this guy. There's that compassion I talked about.
"Ricky can front somebody, too, back there (in the tunnel), but also in here (dugout). You don't see it all the time, but it happens, more often than you'd think. Something will happen in a game and I'll say, 'You want me to do it or do you want it?' Ricky says, 'I got this one.' "
Like a vast majority of major league coaches and managers, Renteria was a position player, a versatile infielder. A first-round draft pick of the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1980, Renteria got into 184 games with a total of three major league clubs. (Black's the one who notes that one of Renteria's four career homers came off him.) Renteria spent a lot more time, however, in what then were three different Triple-A leagues.
He was Most Valuable Player of the Mexican League in 1991, batting .442, but seemed on his way out of the game when the expansion Florida Marlins invited him to their first spring training in 1993. Renteria stuck with the Marlins through their inaugural season and part of the next one.
So certain was Renteria that he'd worn his last uniform in 1994, he got his life-insurance license and went to work, rebuffing for three years the Marlins' siren call to return to the organization in some capacity.
"Quite frankly, I never saw myself as a coach," said Renteria. "John Boles (then a Marlins executive) had a vision for me that I never had for myself."
Finally accepting a job as manager in the Florida State League, Renteria eventually was hired by the Padres to coach in Lake Elsinore, the closest team to his family home in Temecula.
Chosen as manager of Team Mexico in this spring's World Baseball Classic, Renteria made a major-league impression on baseball people with the way he handled the crazed, chaotic aftermath of an on-field, all-out, punches-thrown brawl with Team Canada. Having jumped into the middle of the fray to try to restore peace and separate players, Renteria was the one assigned the solo responsibility of fielding all the pointed questions in the postgame news conference.
Which he did. Calmly.

Only five Middle East countries ranked on World Economic Forum's IT index
A mere five Middle East countries appeared on the World Economic Forum (WEF)'s recently released International Networked Readiness Index. Out of the five economies, Jordan was the highest ranked, placing 46th out of 102 nations.
The list appears in the forum's latest Global Information Technology Report, published in cooperation with INSEAD and the World Bank's infoDev. Other nations from the Middle East that were placed include Turkey at 56, Morocco at 64, Egypt at 65 and Algeria at 87. Israel was also ranked at 16.
Missing from the index is the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the highest ranked Arab nation on the newly released 2003 Global Digital Access Index (DAI) prepared by the International Telegraph Union (UTI). The UAE ranked 34th on the DAI out of 178 economies followed by Bahrain at 42nd place on the global index. Not far behind are Qatar and Kuwait, also not mentioned on the WEF index.
The WEF Networked Readiness Index examines the readiness of economies according to three dimensions: the general macroeconomic and regulatory environment for information and communication technology (ICT), the readiness of the three key stakeholders, individuals, businesses and governments to use and benefit from ICT, and their current usage of ICT. — (menareport.com)

Preventive maintenance is the key to success with these types of cars and suvs. Every type of service is important from a simple oil change, transmission flush, brake fluid flush, power steering flush, and coolant flush to tire rotations, brake service, lube job, belts, hoses, and inspections. It is not a good idea to drive a BMW with multiple problems because this car is designed to break when driven broken. Chain reactions of problems can occur on a BMW if service and maintenance is ignored. A great BMW mechanic in Tampa should be used to repair these cars and keep them at 100% at all times.
Major engine and transmission repairs should be handled with caution. BMW engine repairs like cylinder head gaskets or timing chains could be a sign of neglect. Not performing oil services or ignoring cooling system problems will surely leave your automobile in shambles. Transmission repairs can be costly, but performing regular transmission service like fluid flushes and filter can help prevent these repairs.
Knowledge is important when selecting a BMW repair shop in Tampa. You should ask questions such as what experience does your repair shop offer, how much experience does the mechanics have, have you performed a specific repair you may have knowledge of, and what kind of diagnostic equipment does your repair shop have. Look around and see what types of cars are in the shop. If you see Mercedes, Jaguar, Audi, or Volvo cars, this is usually a good sign of European car experience.

Produced: Free, Queen, The Cars
Let's put it this way: 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. Even if you're heartily sick of it 30-odd years down the line, you have to admit it's a production job of some chutzpah. Baker was behind half a dozen Queen albums as well as Free's classic blues-rock third 'Fire And Water', but he managed to evolve his style to produce a clutch of Cars and Devo albums in the 80s. One of the many who attempted to harness Guns 'N Roses' 'Chinese Democracy', Baker returned to the pomp rock fold with The Darkness's 'One Way Ticket To Hell… And Back' in 2005. MH

In lab and mice studies, compound halts disease without crimping immune system
THURSDAY, June 4 (HealthDay News) -- A compound derived from hydrangea root, an herb used in traditional Chinese medicine, halted the progression of an autoimmune disorder in laboratory mice and human cells, new research shows.
What makes the compound, halofuginone, so promising, the researchers said, is that it slowed progression of the disease without suppressing normal immune system functioning.
A major drawback to current treatments for autoimmune disease is increased risk for infections because of suppressed immune system functioning, according to the study, which appears in the June 5 issue of Science.
"This is really the first description of a small molecule that interferes with autoimmune pathology but is not a general immune suppressant," said the study's lead study author, Mark Sundrud, from the cellular and molecular medicine program and the Immune Disease Institute at Children's Hospital Boston.
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys healthy tissues and organs.
The disorders, which include multiple sclerosis, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, are difficult to treat because drugs that can suppress inflammatory attacks by the immune system on body tissues often have the side effect of suppressing the functioning of the immune as well.
Other current treatments include intravenous infusions of antibodies that neutralize cytokines, the chemical messengers produced by T cells that regulate immune function and inflammatory responses.
But the antibodies are expensive and don't stop the production of cytokines, the root cause of disease, according to the study. People must receive frequent infusions to keep inflammation in check.
Previous research has implicated Th17 cells in a variety of autoimmune disorders, including inflammatory bowe

Humidity, thunderstorms set to hit Tri-State
The Tri-State on Monday enjoyed one more day of comfortable weather, before humidity and a chance of thunderstorms were scheduled to come back into the forecast today, according to the National Weather Service office in Paducah, Ky.
A high-pressure area maintained control over the region's weather on Sunday and Monday, leading to cooler and less humid conditions than the area usually experiences this time of year.
But today the high-pressure system will begin to shift east, leaving in its wake gusty southerly winds that will feed more humid air into the region. In addition, a cold front will begin to move toward the Ohio Valley, sparking thunderstorms, a few of which could be severe.
The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla., has placed northern parts of the Tri-State — including all of Southwestern Indiana — in a slight-risk area for severe weather. The main threats are large hail and damaging wind gusts.

None dare call it conspiracy, but thinking people can't help but ask: What in the world is happening to our country?
The rapid pace of consequential changes we have experienced in the past few months will have a devastating affect on the way of life we have come to enjoy. Is it due to incompetent leadership, is it by chance or is there an orchestrated movement to dismantle the U.S.?
Now comes the nagging question of how, what, why and who? Could it be a result of globalization accomplished with the help of socialism and the international redistribution of wealth? Whatever the cause, current events in this country cannot be naively dismissed out of hand.
1) The working middle class is seeing a rapid decline in the standard of living.
2) The loss of jobs by the transfer of major manufacturing to countries overseas.
3) The evaporation in the value of the savings accounts of hard working Americans due to government debt monetization by printing trillions of fiat dollars.
4) The lopsided balance of trade deficit because the preponderance of products we buy are now made in foreign countries rather than here at home.
5) With inadequate security our southern border is allowed to be penetrated by the Mexican drug cartel and worse yet Middle East terrorists have found it to be the easiest way to infiltrate our country.
Could that be the how and what? If so, why and who?
Is it perceived that the citizens of this country have hit the zenith of prosperity along with the so-called good life, and our ability to purchase every new gadget to hit the market in the last 50 or 60 years. We are only a country of 300 million or so people, and there are billions of people in the world that need their standard of living to improve in order to become potential consumers on a massive scale. Has the they who is the them decided it's time to find more fertile fields in order to perpetuate more and more commerce, but at our expense? Could it be the international banking consortiums, along with large international corporations (which, by the way, owe their success to our country) be willing to sell us out for their own selfish interests?
Just a little food for thought to go with the Kool-Aid in case we are instructed to drink it.

New York - If you're grabbing a sandwich at Dunkin' Donuts, the chain wants you to consider it a snack, not a full lunch.
The chain has been expanding its sandwich offerings to bring in more business during the afternoon. But Dunkin' Brands CEO Nigel Travis said those sandwiches - which include fried chicken and grilled cheese varieties - shouldn't be considered lunch.
"We're not moving into lunch. We're in snacking. We never talk about lunch," Travis said in an interview.
Travis said Dunkin' is focused on two growth areas - breakfast and snacking. The strategy is a reflection of how people are increasingly eating several smaller meals a day, rather than sticking to just breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Dunkin', which is based in Canton, Mass., isn't the only company going after the snacking business. It's a strategy being used by numerous fast-food chains to get people in the door between meals and help boost overall sales. Taco Bell, for example, has been featuring smaller bites positioned as snacks to attract customers during the late afternoon. And McDonald's snack wraps and fruit smoothies are designed to draw people throughout the day.
For its part, Dunkin has historically done most of its business before 11 a.m. To attract more customers after that morning crush, it rolled out a lineup of deli-like sandwiches in 2012. The offerings are relatively compact so they can be easily eaten on the go, but most have north of 400 calories.
The chicken salad sandwich, which is served on a croissant, has 580 calories, according to Dunkin's website. The fried chicken sandwiches range from 590 calories to 660 calories, depending on the toppings. The Texas toast grilled cheese sandwiches have 510 calories, if you don't include ham or bacon. Even the tuna salad wrap, which sounds healthier, has 520 calories.
What exactly qualifies as a snack varies from person to person. But Lauri Boone, a registered dietitian, in the Rochester, N.Y., area, said people should think of snacks as a "small, satisfying portion of food that can help curb hunger or a craving between meals."
Some examples she gave were a handful of nuts and a piece of fruit, a small cup of yogurt, or a handful of trail mix. When asked whether a 500-calorie sandwich could be a snack, she said no.
"That is a meal," she said. "I can't think of a good example where I would recommend a 500-calorie snack."
Dunkin' does offer some lighter sandwiches, however. The turkey, cheddar and bacon sandwich has 440 calories and the chain recently introduced a grilled chicken flatbread sandwich that has 360 calories.
Travis noted that the chain's lighter "DDSmart" sandwiches that are under 400 calories have proved popular, a reflection of the growing interest in healthy eating.

Vettel and Andretti: One on One (VIDEO)
Nov 3, 2013, 9:18 AM EDT
In a rare interview between two of the greatest drivers in the history of Formula One, Sebastian Vettel and Mario Andretti sat down with NBCSN's Will Buxton to discuss the evolution of the sport, F1's return to the US, their fears inside a race car and the possibility of Vettel racing outside of Formula One later on in his career.
- worknman24hours - Nov 3, 2013 at 12:14 PM
(NBC needs to give their IT people more money so they can buy more bandwidth so these videos will load faster.90 seconds to load if it loads at all is ridiculous
This video series is well worth seeing.
There could not be more of a contrast in racing eras then now and when Mario was racing.
Kudo's to Mario for being gentle with the youngin' Vettel and just enjoying the tv time with the current World Champion.
I was not surprised that Vettel simply didn't get a lot of the questions Will threw his way.
Sebastian lives in a time when everything he says will be critiqued by a Red Bull media team after the interview is over.
And Vettel is of singular focus to rewrite the records books for himself and his team right now.
Mario always is worth listening too.
Mario raced, won,lost and almost died many, many times in the most dangerous times in modern racing.
Great to see Mario anytime we can.
Thanks to Will for doing a great job interviewing and being respectful to all involved.

New Mexico - UNLV Box Score in PDF Format
LAS VEGAS, Nev. --- The New Mexico women's basketball team dropped a 57-51 decision at UNLV Saturday inside the Cox Pavilion. The Lobos shot a dismal 20 percent from the field in the second half and allowed the Lady Rebels to rally for the victory. UNM dropped its third straight game and falls to 16-6 overall and 5-4 in the Mountain West Conference. UNLV improved to 10-12 on the year and 3-6 in conference play.
The Lobos led 23-19 at the half and played well. UNM scored 23 first-half points on 11-of-27 shooting. New Mexico only hit one three-pointer in the first half and it wouldn't get much better. The Lobos finished the game going 3-for-18 from long distance.
"We all should be disappointed," said Lobo coach Don Flanagan. "When you shoot like that, 3-of-18 from the three, you can't beat anybody. I got some players who are doing OK, but I got some players who I can't depend on to be consistent.
"We didn't get the kind of play we needed in this game. You have to knock down shots. We have a lot work to do, a lot of work."
Senior Amy Beggin and freshman Sara Halasz led UNM at the break with six points apiece. UNLV senior Shamela Hampton was held to six points at the half.
UNLV responded in the second half and clawed its way to the victory. The Rebels out scored UNM, 38-28, in the final 20 minutes and never allowed UNM to find success offensively. The Lobos led by as many as eight points in the first half and were up 31-21 in the second half with 16:31 to play.
The Lobos hit only 6-of-29 shots in the final 20 minutes and was 2-for-8 from three-point distance.
UNM was outrebounded in the game, 41-39 and it proved to be critical down the stretch for UNLV. The Lady Rebels had 16 second chance points and 12 of those were in the second half.
Hampton scored 11 points in the second half and finished the game with 17 points and 10 rebounds. It was her 11th double-double of the year and 21st of her career. UNLV freshman Jamie Smith had all of her 10 points in the second half and pulled down 17 rebounds. Smith, who is a MWC Freshman of the Year candidate, had her eighth double-double of the year.
Beggin finished with 15 points in the game on 5-of-13 shooting but was 0-for-6 from long range. Beggin has reached double figures in 21 of 22 games. Halasz chipped in 10 points and reached double figures for the fourth time in her career. UNM got good board work from Georonika Jackson with seven boards and Amanda Best with Six. Halasz also had five offensive rebounds.
The Lobos adjusted the lineup Saturday against UNLV. Halasz returned to the lineup and made her sixth start this season. Sophomore Jessica Kielpinski made her first start this season.
New Mexico has now lost three consecutive games for the first time this season. The Lobos have seven games remaining before the MWC Championship on March 10-14.
Junior Valerie Kast helped keep New Mexico close in the second half. Kast scored all of her seven points in seven minutes during the second half. Kast had one block against the Lady Rebels and moved into sole possession of 10th place on the UNM all-time list. Kast has 24 blocks this season and 53 for her career.
The Lobos return home to host Air Force Wednesday, Feb. 11 at 7 p.m. MT. Tickets are currently available at www.GoLobos.com.

Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 2/28/13
Jackie Bradley Jr. has turned some heads this spring. Originally not projected to make a major impact on the Red Sox roster until 2014 at the earliest, Bradley has thoroughly put himself on the radar in the here and now with an impressive spring. With three hits on Thursday afternoon as the Red Sox took on the Pirates, he only cemented himself in the outfield conversation. Nonetheless, despite his talent Bradley is still just 22 and only has 229 at-bats above single-A ball. Moreover, he fell off a bit last year after his promotion to double-A, meaning that he could well need some more seasoning before making major impact in the big leagues. However, with his kind of raw skill and a 5-for-9 spring thus far, Bradley is in the running to begin 2013 with the Red Sox. Do you think he makes the Opening Day roster? Take Our Poll

Prince William Stiffens Panhandling Penalties
If you get caught panhandling in Prince William, it' going to cost you more in fines.
The county's Board of Supervisors voted to increase the penalty for panhandling on streets to a more serious offense that would net someone a $1,000 fine and possibly six months in jail for any subsequent offenses.
Prior to the vote, the penalty for panhandling the county was a $500 fine and a summons from a police office which, according to county documents, was "ineffective in deterring repeat offenders."
The move also broadens the definition of panhandling in the county, changing its definition in the code from panhandling to "aggressive and dangerous solicitation. Those who stand along roadsides and in median strips will not be allowed to ask or beg for cash, or to use body language that would signal any sort of donation of a passerby.
It remains illegal to solicit anyone within 15 feet of an automatic teller machine. Anyone violating the law would be fined a Class 3 misdemeanor, and subsequent violations would result in the more serious Class 2 misdemeanor fine.
Additionally, a new clause prohibits the distribution of leaflets or advertisements to occupants of vehicles on county roadways. Pedestrians on the side of the road or in road medians can no longer as for donations from those inside vehicles. Doing so would result in a traffic violation, according to the ordinance unanimously approved by county officials.

Every year (2 or 3 times) my baskettball organization holds car washes and we solicit funds from fellow citizens. PwC has made it very expensive to rent gyms to help get these kids off the street. A middle school gym cost about 125 per hour in pwc. In Fairfax non profit organizations can rent for free.
I guess now we are no longer able to ask for the community to assist at these events.
I very much doubt that the cops are going to be messing with some basketball players having a fundraiser…lol
I do hope that cops actually enforce these new laws and get these bums off the streets.
I guess freedom of speech doesn't matter anymore?
Wow! I guess the law should say, only bums can't panhandle. Laws are laws only when they are equally enforced. Otherwise, they are human rights violations. Seeking donations at intersections is a hazard.

An espresso machine drowning in its own coffee, landscapes literally vanishing from the picture, people tanned, branded, and scarred by their existence on the margins of society or staged in such absurd poses that the viewer is left startled and puzzled. Gray concrete pictures of monochromatic simplicity and exuberant collages of picturesque beauty: Now in its tenth year, "gute aussichten 2013/2014" presents a wider spectrum of content, aesthetics, medium and form than new photography in Germany usually manages to achieve. It is a range of surprisingly diverse ideas, reflections and photographic strategies, forms and media that not only depicts the current status quo but also inspires. www.guteaussichten.org

I recently bought an external USB2.0 bluray drive from amazon and have been pleasantly surprised. It works very well. It cost only $35.
I would like to backup some of my Bluray movies into my external hard drive. MacGo claims they can play the lossless audio through the Mac's HDMI port or thunderbolt. Is this really true? I thought Macs were not able to do that. Anyone with a newer mac want to try this software out. My iMac is from 2007 and cannot do this. But I am able to play blurays through my USB bluray drive and this software with lossy audio.
Also I'd love to know if MacGo ignores region coding, which MakeMKV/VLC does.
It apparently uses XBMC under the skin, with BD menu support likely proprietary code.
I use it all the time (un-encrypted discs). Supposedly a version 2 is right aroud the corner.
If I recall, you can download a trial copy, the only caveat was some of the BluRays had to be loaded on the computer after the trial ran out, otherwise it worked as well or better than DVD Fab.
I will state that trying to back-up a BluRay even to hard disk was not an easy process and may be limited in the Trial Version.
1) It does NOT support Blu-ray menus (contrary to what they say on their web site).
Macgo announced this support for a version 3.0 initially due in July, then missed the deadline twice, and since then all mentions of that update have disappeared
2) It needs an active Internet connection for decoding Blu-ray disks
3) Player will sometimes crash on some disks, including DVD ones
Basically, the trial version works exactly as the paid one, so try it before buying it.
But it is labeled as "beta" and rightly so : I tried 2 Blu-rays, none worked, the Player hanged.
May be in 6-12 months ?...
The latest Macgo Blu-ray Player v2.9.x supports Blu-ray menus... kind of : there is a Preferences option where you can switch Menus support ON (default is OFF).
But it is labeled as "beta" and rightly so : I tried 2 Blu-rays, none worked, the Player hanged.
May be in 6-12 months ?...
The Mac Blu-ray software can finally access the Blu-ray disc menus. Not "beta" any more.
Hi bommai,
I purchased the software few weeks ago.
My mini is hooked with a Yamaha AV receiver with an HDMI cable.
Mini is unable carry HD audio under OS X (Mavericks but I own it since Lion - same result).
Best you can do is DTS and Dolby Digital whatever is the software. The limitation doesn't come from MacGo but from Mac (OS or Hw, I am not sure at this point).
I opened a support ticket because my Blu-Ray discs with Dolby True HD didn't output any sound (total channel mix mess in fact) in 5.1 while DTS Master Audio was correctly downgraded to DTS. MacGo claims they can get HD audio through HDMI. My 4 years-old Mini can't with OS X.
I've read some Mini users that succeed to get HD audio using PowerDVD on Windows.
My 4 years-old Mini can't with OS X.
I've read some Mini users that succeed to get HD audio using PowerDVD on Windows.
It has been corrected on the latest Mac Minis (starting 2011 if I remember correctly).
AFAIK, since it is a hardware limitation, booting under Windows would not change it.

I think Nate stands a really good chance at winning this fight.
I don't really believe that Joe Silva forced him to move down to 170. I suspect there was a suggestion there and Lombard sorta went with it because yea, he is a small MW within the UFC. For him to say Silva forced him down...I just can't buy it.
Anyway I'll be pulling for Nate for sure in this fight. Will Lombard take Nate down? I won't be surprised.
Related note: Please Joe Silva work with Bellator so I can watch a rematch of Lombard vs Schlemenko!
I think this has a lot to do with the size of his contract as much as his performances in the octagon. Hector's good, but if the UFC were to release him after another MW loss, his stock would be hurting for sure. He's smart enough to stay in the good graces of the boss, especially with that contract to lose.

The NHL holds its draft lottery Monday night, and the Florida Panthers have the best odds of winning. The draw will determine the order of selection for the first 14 picks of the league's amateur draft June 30. All 14 NHL teams that missed the playoffs have a shot at the No. 1 selection. Florida finished with the fewest points in the NHL this season. It has a 25 percent chance of winning the draw, followed by Colorado at 19 percent and Tampa Bay at 14 percent. In previous years, the lottery-winning team could move up no more than four slots in the draft order. This year, the winning draw will draft first overall. The remaining 13 teams are slotted in reverse order of their regular-season point totals.

Rolling Thunder Skating CenterRead MoreWalking into Rolling Thunder Skating Center feels a lot like walking into an indoor carnival: there are rides inside, an arcade with video games and skeeball, and there's even a mural of a rollercoaster on the walls. Still, the center's core identity pulses on the groove of pure roller fun, boasting an expansive rink and its own pizzeria. Around the whole scene, skaters can glide and groove to Top-40 tunes. Parents can join kids on the rink, or watch from the booths in the seating area to ensure that their kids are safe and aren't mouthing any lyrics to Will Smith's Parent's Just Don't Understand.7017 Roosevelt Blvd.Philadelphia, PA US
Monkey TownRead MoreChildren do a lot of learning in school, but many of today's classrooms aren't properly equipped with blow-up slides and bounce houses that are essential to teaching lessons about fun. Monkey Town picks up where schools have failed, giving kids the freedom to stick themselves to a Velcro wall or frolic on the jungle gym. Under close staff supervision, obstacle courses challenge kids to use their wits to overcome impediments and solve the riddles of an obstructive sphinx. A snack area and four private party rooms provide an oasis for celebrating birthdays and refueling from the day's fun with pizza and sodas.5860 Route 42Washington Township, NJ US
Clementon ParkRead MorePart theme park, part water park, Clementon Park and Splash World thrills visitors whether they get wet or stay dry. With attractions ranging from a lazy river to a 10-story free fall, families will find a heart-racing adventures for all ages, and located just 20 minutes from Center City, the fun is easy to access as well. Visitors can relax during the quarter-mile lazy river, wade through South Jersey's biggest wave pool, or descend a cool 100 feet on Thunder Drop. Thrill-seekers can turn upside-down and backward in The Ring of Fire roller coaster, or hop on the world's tallest dueling trap door speed slides, Torpedo Rush. After emptying out their stomachs with screams, visitors can refuel with an array of juicy burgers, fresh-baked pizza, and crispy chicken tenders. Funnel cakes and cotton candy complete the carnival experience, or guests can choose to bring their own food to be enjoyed in the picnic areas near the parking lot. Inside Tip: Families who would like to avoid crowds should visit Monday–Wednesday.144 Berlin Rd.Clementon, NJ US
The Zombie Race at Six Flags Great AdventureRead MoreThe Survival Race?s 5-kilometer track challenges racers to navigate a gauntlet of mud-laden terrain. Staggered waves of up to 300 runners each conquer military-style obstacles, wade through murky water, and slide through muddy trenches before reaching the finish line to celebrate at a shindig awash with delicious eats and smitten swamp monsters. Afterward, a Facebook album aids online nostalgia by showcasing dirt-caked athletes and their marshy feats.1 Six Flags BlvdJackson, NJ US
Happy Tymes Family Fun CenterRead MoreOn Friday and Saturday nights, the black lights flicker on, and Happy Types Family Fun Center opens for cosmic bowling, where bowlers shoot for 300 on lanes equipped with optional bumpers. Along with family-friendly bowling open throughout the week, the center also features a huge variety of indoor and outdoor games and activities. Go-carts tear around the track year-round, and families can hone their batsmanship at batting cages, clubsmanship on the mini golf course, and climbsmanship on the rock wall.2071 County Line RdWarrington, PA US
UltrazoneRead MoreThey say that a family that plays together stays together, especially when they've got each other in the cross-hairs of a laser. At the family entertainment complex of Ultrazone, everybody's inner kid comes out to play in an electric playground teeming with teams of ultraviolet warriors. The sprawling laser tag arena is one of the biggest on the East Coast, sporting multiple levels of battle grounds where visceral action scenarios play out amongst a myriad of obstacles. Rounds are played in multiple gaming formats and are divided by age levels so younger players aren't trounced by birthday parties for Bigfoot. Gun shy attendees can get their kicks popping quarters at Ultrazone's video game arcade.4201 Neshaminy BlvdBensalem, PA US

At its highest point, North Carolina owed the federal government over $2.8 billion (April 2012) after borrowing to pay regular state unemployment benefits. As 2013 drew to a close, the state had paid down almost $1 billion to a year end estimate of $1.87 billion.
"We are making sure that there are better processes in place for the determination of claims and we are introducing new tools to go after money that is owed to the division," said DES Assistant Secretary Dale Folwell. "Fiscal Research at the General Assembly estimated that the debt would be around $1.98 billion at the end of 2013 and we anticipate being $100 million ahead of that projection."

And, sure enough in May 1940, our poor troops in most of our country were overrun in a day or two by the might and agression of the German military machine.On May 10, 1940, at 15:55 hrs. to be precise, Adolf Hitler, just like that, without any cause or provocation by the Netherlands, gave the order for the Nazis to invade the Netherlands!!
Hitler could do that so easily without serious repercussions because Holland, militarily, was a walk-over. The Dutch government had cut back on military spending for years and had equipped our meager Dutch forces with cheap, antiquated, inadequate arms and supplies.Time and again, history has shown, that military weakness and weakness in leadership INVITES (even encourages) AGGRESSION, frequently BRUTAL AGRESSION!Sadly, even alarmingly, in 2014-2015 we see the very same thing happening again. The explosive growth, viscious violence and atrocious brutality of ISIS is being facilitated by the weakness and inaction of President Obama.Just like it happened in Holland when our - then - Prime Minister (from 1939/1940), Jhr. Dirk Jan de Geer, disgraced himself by sympathizing with the Nazis and advocating a peace settlement with Nazi Germany in 1940. Luckily during the war in Holland we had Queen Wilhelmina who fired him and after the war de Geer was brought to justice and convicted conditionally to a year in prison for treason. Sadly in America we don't have a Queen Wilhelmina right now to preserve and protect the integrity of the USA - and the world (however, what "We the People" can do in the USA is impeach him and we should seriously and urgently consider doing that as you can see below what the consequences were of his sympathy with the enemy).
The pictures below illustrate the devastating damage the Germans inflicted thatmorning, a morning which had started out like a normal sunny morning in May,
just like 9/11.
Remember: no provocation, no cause, no warning.The Nazis hit Holland out of the blue, literally "out of the blue!":
This was a "9/11" attack not just on one city,
this was a "9/11" attack on our entire country!
As you can see above, most - if not all - of our Air Force bases had been bombed to pieces. The Nazis had blown our Air Force runways to smithereens. Holland had less than a handful of fighters and bombers left with which we could defend ourselves!
In these shambles, and facing overwhelming German aggression, Dutch Air Force pilot Bodo Sandberg, my Dad, was called into action on May 13, 1940. He had to fly one of the few G-1 fighters we still had, to protect our last T-5 bomber against a deluge of German Messerschmitts. Their mission was to bomb our own "Moerdijk" bridges over the wide estuary of the Haringvliet, to hold back the Nazi invasion.
In the full awareness that he was likely to die, as his chance of survival was virtually nil, he flew his mission heroically against the overwhelming devastation, death, destruction and vicious aggression of the Nazis.
Above: Bodo Sandberg in his Fokker G-1 fighter plane defending our country
Below: Invading Germans with heavy machine guns at the Moerdijk bridges
Above is a painting by Thijs Postma , showing the attack on the Moerdijk bridges on May 13, 1940, our attempt to prevent the German armored divisions from crossing the big rivers and invade their way into Holland (it was a purely defensive operation, only to destroy our own bridges; our squadron wasn't even out to kill invading enemy personnel). This was the last attack by a Dutch bomber, a Fokker T5 (and also the last Fokker T5 bomber the Dutch had left, three days into the war). The T5 bomber was protected by two Fokker G-1 fighters. One was flown by Lt.vl. Sandberg with Srgt. v.d. Breemer and the other by Lt.vl. Schoute with Srgt. Lindner. The crew of the Fokker T5 bomber where Lt. W.F. Anceaux, Lt .B. Swagerman, Srgt. G.A. van Riemsdijk, Srgt. O.W. Douwes-Dekker and Sldr.-gunner J. Wijnstra
Dreadfully, just beyond Dordrecht, the small Dutch squadron was attacked by nine Messerschmitt fighters! Three of the Messerschmitts attacked the T-5. The other six split up and attacked the two G-1s. The T5 went down in flames and crashed in the Grienden along the Noord, near Ridderkerk . All five of its crew members perished. According to unconfirmed reports Wijnstra and Fist Officer Douwes Dekker may have initially survived the crash. With their clothing ablaze they scrambled to reach the water but, despite being helpless - and harmless - on the ground at that point, they were shot and murdered from the air by the Nazi gunners in the Messerschmitts.
Our five Dutch heroes were buried on
B. Swagerman O.W. Douwes Dekker C.A van Riemsdijk
On May 15th, Hans Metzlar, a flight observer during some of the previous six flights of the T-V 856, decided to honor his fallen comrades. He drove the DKW, Swagerman had left behind, from Schiphol airport to Aalsmeer (today the largest flower-auction in the world) to get flowers for the graves of his fallen friends. Ten minutes later, the back seat of Swagerman's DKW was "snowed under" with carnations and chrysanthemums, with which the little car had spontaneously been filled to the brim!! During the funerals on May 16th, our fallen heroes' graves were covered with those flowers.
The other G-1 was also shot down and crashed in a polder at Nieuw-Lekkerland. Pilot Sgt. Paul Schoute perished in the violently burning wreck. Hans Lindner was thrown out of the plane and ended up against the verge of a waterway with his leg shot off. His hair still burning. Someone rushed to help him, extinguished it with water from the canal, but he died shortly thereafter.
These two hero aviators were initially buried in Nieuw-Lekkerland, but were re-buried a month later.
Paul Schoute (23) Hans Lindner (25)
Only one G-1 fighter plane, in this mission that was so vital in Holland's desperate defense against the Nazi invaders, managed to outfly the onslaught of the German Messerschmits. Shot by the machine guns from the Messerschmits, Sandberg was bleeding from bullet holes through his leather pilot's jacket, but he found a cloud in the air in which he could hide and, thanks to that cloud, he managed to escape from the German attackers. Not for long though, as his plane was shot as well and he had to make an emergency landing. But luck was with him again. He managed to keep his damaged plane in the air long enough to find a highway near the Hague where he "landed". It was a close call but Sandberg and his crew-member v.d. Breemer survived this mission. They were the only two.
England, USA, Australia and New Guinea
After the May days Sandberg managed to escape to
Bodo Sandberg who survived fighting on two fronts (first in Holland against the Nazis and then in Australia, New Guinea and Malaysia against the Japanese!) lived to be 90. He died on May 2, 2005 and was cremated on May 4, by coincidence, although as if by fate, on the Dutch National day of mourning for our fallen heroes; the one day a year on which he, his wife, and two sons would stand on top of the dunes along the Dutch shoreline, look out over the North Sea, watch the sun set into the sea, and honor our heroes. The one special day on which he so deeply remembered his fallen friends.
