Works great with SageTV servers; fanless and quiet; very customizable.
Doesn't work well without SageTV server; remote lacks a real keyboard; fiddly.
Streaming boxes are a mixed bag these days. With super-polished commercial offerings like the AppleTV, as well as streaming functionality integrated in every other consumer electronics device—from the Xbox 360 to the TiVo—we thought the age of the dedicated streaming box had passed. However, the SageTV HD Theater offers something a little different than the typical UPNP or DLNA streaming box—but it'll cost you.
Starting with the additional $80 for SageTV's Media Center app, which should be a requirement for using the HD Theater. If you install the SageTV software on a PC equipped with an HDTV card, it turns that PC into a fully functional PVR, complete with an onscreen guide and basic scheduling functionality. SageTV's Media Center is an acceptable PVR, offering more customizability than Windows Media Center and none of its annoying DRM, albeit in a less-polished product. The software's 10-foot interface is incredibly customizable, but can be a little unwieldy and slow to browse, even when run on a fast PC.
The HD Theater effectively extends the capabilities of your SageTV Media Center to other rooms in your home. Connect the HD Theater to a wired network, and you'll be able to stream recorded TV, live TV, music, movies, and photos from the host PC to the TV and/or stereo you have hooked up to the HD Theater. We were able to play our test files using many different video and audio codecs, without problems. While it was initially tricky to hit the file we were looking for when browsing large libraries using the remote, we eventually got the knack of it and were able to select the appropriate content without too many over- or under-shot menus. When paired with the SageTV Media Center, the HD Theater is a competent, if unpolished piece of hardware.
Without Media Center, though, you're stuck with the stand-alone mode, which lets you stream content stored on standard network shares or UPNP servers. Unfortunately, the HD Theater doesn't have the horsepower to work with large libraries. We also had problems streaming several common video types—including ones that worked when we viewed them through the SageTV Media Center. And if we thought the interface was slow when connected to the SageTV Media Center, it was positively pokey when in stand-alone mode.
The remote control is a fairly standard OEM design, similar to ones that ship with Media Center machines. It's infrared only, meaning you must maintain line of sight to the extender. Button placement is OK, but as much as the SageTV software requires you to type things in, it would be beneficial to have a QWERTY keyboard accessible, instead of using the numeric pad.
For anyone who has already bought into the SageTV lifestyle, the HD Theater is a great way to connect more rooms to the media hub. However, we can't recommend the HD Theater if you haven't already purchased SageTV. We'd rather run the more-polished and less-fiddly TiVo PC software, and use inexpensive TiVo boxes to stream content throughout our home.

In 1965, the Office of Economic Opportunity launched Project Head Start as an eight-week summer program. Head Start was part of the War on Poverty, which embodied a basic belief in education as the solution to poverty. Head Start was designed to help break the "cycle of poverty" by providing preschool children of low income families with a comprehensive program to meet their emotional, social, health, nutritional, and psychological needs. At that time, part of the new government thinking on the nature of poverty and the uses of education, and born of the civil-rights movement, was that the government was obligated to help disadvantaged groups in order to compensate for inequality in social or economic conditions. The concept of "maximum feasible participation" represented a new philosophy in federal government that low income people should help plan and run their own programs. Education, child development specialists, community leaders, and parents enthusiastically received Head Start across the nation and recruited children age three to school entry age.
In 1969, Head Start was transferred from the Office of Economic Opportunity to the Office of Child Development in the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. It has now become a program within the Administration for Children and Families in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Head Start serves many American Indian, migrant farm worker, urban and rural children and families in all 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Pacific Insular Areas.
OFB Head Start (OFBHS) is an early childhood program serving low-income children in the rural communities of Broome County.
OFBHS began as one of a number of anti-poverty programs under the CAP of Opportunities for Broome, Inc. (OFB) in 1981. We began with two classrooms in the basement of an Endicott church. Over the past twenty four years these two classrooms have grown to fifteen classrooms in four Head Start centers located in Harpursville, Endicott, Whitney Point and Windsor. We serve the school districts of Chenango Forks, Chenango Bridge, Deposit, Harpursville, Maine-Endwell, Union-Endicott, Vestal, Whitney Point, and Windsor.
The programs offered to our families include part day Head Start and Universal Pre-K classes. Collaborations with school district operated Universal Pre-K programs in our centers allow children to access full day programming, at no cost to their families. In addition, our Endicott Center is with The Handicapped Children's Association, who provides integrated placement for special needs children. These wonderful classrooms give children with special needs the opportunity to learn alongside their more able peers, who in turn, learn from them.
We serve low income pre-school children ages 3-5. It is our hope that soon we will also be able to serve the infant/ toddler/expectant mom population, bringing the Head Start philosophy, experience and support to families even sooner.
The Impact of Head Start
Head Start has played a major role in focusing the attention of the Nation on the importance of early childhood development, especially in the first five years of life. In many ways, the program has had a dramatic impact on child development and day care services; on the expansion of State and local activities for children; on the range and quality of services offered to young children and their families; and on the design of training program for those who staff such programs.
The program has led in efforts to improve the cognitive abilities of young children. Studies have indicated that Head Start children score higher than comparable non-Head Start children in preschool achievements tests that measure these abilities. The studies also show that Head Start children perform equal to or better than their peers when they enter regular school, and there are fewer grade retentions and special class placements.
The outreach and training efforts of Head start programs have helped provide low-income parents with the knowledge and service they need to build a better life for their children. Direct involvement of parents in Head Start planning and policy-making has given families an active role in their child's education in how those services are provided. This participation has influenced school systems across the county to do likewise.
Head Start has had a special impact on community efforts for low-income families. A study of 58 communities with full-year Head Start programs showed that the programs had influenced local educational and health institutions to become more responsive to the needs of low-income families. As a result of Head Start activities, for the first time many school districts revised curricula to place more emphasis on the needs of minorities; health institutions changed services and schedules to serve the low-income more effectively; there was increased participation by low-income individuals in policy-making decisions; and employment of local people in para-professional jobs was stepped up. All of these are major Head Start goals.
Features of the Program
Head Start's educational program is designed to meet each child's individual needs. It also aims to meet the need of the community served and its ethnic and cultural characteristics. If programs have a majority of bilingual children, for example, at least on teacher or aide must speak their native language.
Every child receives a variety of learning experiences to foster intellectual, social, and emotional growth. Children participate in indoor and outdoor play and are introduced to the concepts of words and numbers. They are encouraged to express their feelings and to develop self-confidence and the ability to get along with others.
Head Start offers:
-Activities that help children grow mentally, socially, emotionally, and physically
-The help for children to socialize, solve problems, and have experiences that build self-confidence
-Skilled healthcare treatment, arrangement of hearing and vision tests, and immunizations
-Mental health and other services for children and families with special needs
-Nutritional meals for children
-The teaching of good personal hygiene habits
-Counseling for parents, children, and families
-Training in proper nutrition, health, hygiene, and child rearing practices
-Referrals for continuing adult education and employ ability status
-Participation in home visits and center activities
-Gaining leadership skills by involvement with committees and boards
Medical and Dental | Establishing medical and dental homes is a priority for OFBHS. On site dental prevention service is provided for all Head Start children. Children also receive hearing, vision and nutrition screenings with appropriate referrals and resources offered to families when needed.
Nutrition | Meal time is an extension of learning by modeling language, conversation, social interaction and introducing new foods. The menu integrates the latest nutritional research so families are offered the healthiest meals possible. OFB works with all families to ensure that their cultural needs are valued and special diets are accommodated for.
Mental Health | A mental health professional is available to every Head Start program to provide mental health services for children and families. Ongoing training and support ensures that OFB provides high quality classroom environments that foster success, safety and wellness for each child.
Parent Involvement
Participation in Decision Making | Parents are the most important influence on a child's development. An essential part of our program is the involvement of parents in program planning and operating activities. Many serve as members of Policy Councils and Committees and have a voice in program design.
Family Services
Respect for the uniqueness of each family drives the work of family service staff as it builds relationship with families and works on parent-generated goals. Family service staff provide resources and referrals, crisis intervention, opportunities for community involvement and support to develop literacy, leadership and employment skills.
Head Start's Policy Council, a parent decision-making body helps plan and develop goals for the program, approve various policies, hiring, budgets and work plans.
We also have a diverse Board of Directors. Nine members are active in the strategic direction of Head Start with a focus of serving all age, income eligible children in Broome County.
Children between the ages of 3 and 4 whose family's income falls within our income guidelines. For more information about OFB Head Start, please call (607) 772-6810.

edit- 5/10/14- I will no longer repurchase anything from this brand since they are not cruelty free. My new HG foundation which I prefer more is Urban Decay's Naked foundation in shade 6.
This is definitely my favorite liquid foundation I've ever tried as well as owned. I get addicted to researching stuff on the internet and this is absolutely true for my makeup before I go out and invest. I tried F&B because of all the good reviews and it definitely lives up to the hype. I have pretty healthy skin and my only concern is my unven pigmentation around my cheeks so when looking for foundation wether it be powder or liquid I just need something light and non-cakey to hide my subtle rosacea. This applies and blends into my face so smoothly with my Mac 187 brush and it feels and smells refreshing when applied. When it dries it looks like my natural skin and gives off a dewy look, which I merely offset with sephoras matte face powder(in d33) if I want to have more of a matte look. I wear this in 34 and have been matched to an nc35/nc40 in Mac. I can't wear this alone because my skin seems to have no depth unless I use blush and some bronzer or powder to contour. I do apply moisturizer before hand and only use this when I need more coverage or need something waterproof since it makes me get little bumps around my cheeks if I use this everyday. I LOVE to wear this when I'm snowboarding since it lasts on the mountain :)

If you are considering getting this foundation but balking at the $40 price, keep in mind that the product is fabulous and worth every dime!! If you are looking for a great foundation to use for flash photography, this is the one! I bought this to use for my Boudoir photo shoot and it is my ticket to perfect skin. Yes, as some girls have mentioned, a single layer of coverage is quite sheer. But that is exactly the beauty of this product. It dries into this matte perfection that can truly layered without moving or getting uneven. It is NEVER cakey! There are some parts of your face that shouldn't be caked up with too much makeup, while other spots like blemishes and dark circles can use a little more coverage. ALL men I've talked to think the caked, too-much-makeup look is unattractive. This foundation allows you the perfect control and coverage to get a smooth, velvety finish that just dries into what looks like great skin. Not great skin covered in loads of foundation. I am NC30 in MAC, used Shiseido Dual Balancing Liquid Foundation in O60 and NARS Sheer Glow in Santa Fe, and my MUFE F&B shade is 32. Matches me perfectly. But let me tell you I never want to use those other foundations again! Both the NARS and the Shi gave me a really unnatural look around the jaw line and corners of my mouth, they would crack when I smiled and make me look older, with wrinkles I don't even have! MUFE F&B does NOT do that and just wears beautifully all day! Now I will just be finishing up my other foundations because they were costly and I need to clear out the space.
I suggest using this foundation over a primer, and underneath some setting powder. Instead of the loose & messy MUFE HD powder, I have had the best luck with NARS Pressed Powder (in Mountain). It has a slight tint to give you just a bit more coverage, it is a pressed powder so you avoid the messiness of loose powders, and it is just so finely milled. If I had to only use one foundation the rest of my life, this one would be it!

Its a Love Hate! Bought this foundation, a few weeks ago, I was really excited to try this out, as it claims its water resistant, sweat proof ect. (true-ish) If you like your coverage STAY AWAY! You need almost perfect skin to be able to wear this foundation, extremely light coverage, PRO: Impossible to be cakey! I would know because when i wear it I have to apply like 20 layers!!! love the natural glow it gives the skin! Its 80% water, so its moisturizing on the skin. Love the 50ml bottle, 20ml more than your usual foundation

i studied in mufe academy for 3 yrs but now i work for mac, i don't know why is everyone saying MAC 15 or slightly lighter than MAC 15 should go for #36/38. Yes it's a really well blending product but you know what. You just pale your skin up, #36 is lighter than #38, and #38 is for MAC NC7 people to use, #36 for NW5.
for ref, I have over 50 foundations, MAC 15 can work as a bronzer for me, this is (#36) the only foundation i could wear, I swear!
Even nicola roberts makeup line Dainty Doll is darker than my face, NO makeup brand make lighter one.

I wanted minimum coverage, that didn't look caked on or made my face shiny - and this one is perfect! It lets your skin show thru slightly and so it looks very natural.. doesn't settle in imperfections and corrects minor redness. This is also the only foundation that doesn't make me break out!

If you're looking for a light coverage foundations that blends well and lasts all day, then this one is for you! A little goes a long way with this foundation and there are many colors to match many different shades of skin. The finish is lovely and it lasts all day. I will definitely repurchase.

This is the only foundation that I've ever bought that has really worked for me (and I've bought a lot). The coverage on the foundation is not great but I mainly use it to even out my skin tone and correct any redness. Though, you can easily layer this foundation to bump up the coverage. It looks so natural on the skin. Usually I buff my foundation in with my stippling brush and then use MAC select moisture cover on any blemishes. Overall it's a nice foundation with light to medium coverage that feels really good on the skin.
Also it comes in a nice range of shades. They even have a shade for my super fair skin. continued >>

I have been on a maddening hunt for a foundation that will stand up to the Florida humidity. I had finally accepted defeat after trying Guerlain, Chanel, Kevyn Aucoin SSE, and my last purchase, Lancome 24hr. I told myself my expectations were to high, I was looking for a product that didnt exist. I thought I had found my HG in Guerlain, but the shades were not light enough for my very fair skin. Well, I decided to give it one more shot, and I had it narrowed between 3 choices, MUFE Face & Body, Kett Cream, and Shiseido Sun Protection. All 3 claim to be either water proof or resistant. Well I ended up going with the MUFE as it was my birthday and Sephora had some goodies to go with it and I knew I could return it with no problems should I need to. I would like to add that on top of our evil humidity, I also had a hysterectomy, and so to add injury to insult, I sweat like a bloody pig all hours of the night and day. I couldnt go 10 mins outside without all my foundation melting and running down my face..if I could get to AC quick enough to prevent the meltdown, on my nose where my sunglasses sit, the makeup would be 100% gone, leaving redness and splotches where the makeup would have worn off. -.- So the thousands I've invested in my collection did me no good, as I couldn't use my products w/o a base to first put them on. Well enter MUFE F&B. First off the color range is fantastic, I'm usually the lightest color in any range, and I chose 38, Pink Porcelain. When I first saw it, I thought maybe I needed the pinker shade, but nope, it was a PERFECT match. I have pretty clear skin to start with but, I have alot of redness in my cheeks and some broken capillaries..but usually no breakouts and no scarring. This foundation is SUPER SHEER. I knew this before buying, but had no idea just how sheer it was untill I used it. If you are looking for even medium coverage, you may not want this foundation. Yes, it can be layerd and built up a bit, but it will not cover serious flaws in any way shape or form. I used one layer all over, with fingers, after it set I used a BB to kind of "press" any excess off while blending edges. After that I used a few drops to go over my cheeks where the redness is, and also let that set, and tapped at it again as it sets quite dewy..by tapping it takes the shine down just a touch, making it look super duper natural. The website says it sets from a liquid to a somewhat powdery finish, but my arse it does..I didn't find it had a powdery finish at all. May be my skin type, but it didnt bother me and it looked flawless regardless. Now even with 1 layer all over and almost 3 layers on the cheeks, the redness still could be seen ever so slightly, but it evened my complexion to a level I was satisfied with. You can still see my freckles, and the pink left in my cheeks still looks natural and nice, and was toned down enough that I still needed to use a blush to add a bit of color back in. It did not settle into fine lines like my Chanel, it did not dry my skin, (which is normal, sometimes a bit oily in places), it did not seperate or flake. It seemed to adjust to my skin in a perfect way in all areas. Now to the good stuff..I would not say this is water proof..but, its damn close. I applied this the first time and decided to go to the store, 3/4 of a mile from my home. In July. In Florida. With no AC, and sunglasses on. Before I even turned my car on, I had sweat dripping down my face. Half a mile down the road, I was so sweaty I could feel the sunglasses sliding on my nose from the sweat. I did use some Chanel loose powder to set under my eyes and around the area where my glasses would sit. On the way home, I was sweating so bad I had drops on my cheeks and nose. When I removed my glasses I did have a bit of transfer, but that could have been the powder. I also had a bit of redness where the glasses where on my nose, but a simple tap of my finger and it was like it was never there. I looked in the mirror and it was PERFECT. No lines where the sweat had ran in droplets, no seperating, no creasing, no shine! It looked as if it had been freshly applied! It looks so natural, doest set in pores, didnt wrinkle at the corners of my eyes..just perfect. I am amazed. I havent tried it in the pool, but I was looking to combat the sweat and so far, I think this does the trick. Its so light, I dont feel it on the skin at all, even after the sweat. Ive seen reviews where people have said it gets a tacky feel once you sweat or as it wears, I did not experiance this at all. It feels soft and I forget its even on, which I have never once experianced with any other foundation. If I had to pick a con about it, I would say perhaps the coverage, but really I cant even complain about that. Its so sheer that it really lends a hand in shade selection as it lets your natural color come through, making it blend flawlessly, and making it very hard to get a wrong color unless you go way out and buy a color much different from your own. You could easily get a shade lighter or darker and probably make it work, and this is coming from someone who is extremely pale and even the slightest mismatch shows up on. If you have healthy skin, like the sheerest of coverage, want a natural/dewy finish, sweat resistant foundation, this may be for you! I am in love, and untill I find a more water resistant formula that also gives me the same perfect pores and lasting ability, this is my summer HG! I will finish with one last warning, and I know Ive said it already, but in an effort to avoid broken hearts, it can not be said enough how sheer this gel formula is. I think its even sheerer than my LM tinted moisturizer. It goes on like colored water, but it blends seemlessly with your own skin, you can not even see it when you use magnification. All in all I really love it so far, and cant reccomend it enough for high humidity and heat!

There is NO COVERAGE. none...... NONE!!! why didn't I just buy a moisturizer for 60$, not to mention my skin broke up in tiny little bumps all across my whole face after 5 uses. This is not a foundation. why it receives grave reviews is beyond me? gives a "dewy" effect but wtf a moisturizer does the same thing. people are conned who buy this and still five grave reviews.
IF this was a foundation I would absolutley love the consistency and the way it is able to spread. otherwise. nothing. this is a zero to me.

Louder Calls For The World's Catholics To Be Heard
By editor
Catholicism is reaching further into the developing world. Will the Church shift its focus to new concerns in those regions — like poverty, education and rural development? Michel Martin talks with Sister Simone Campbell, Father Patrick Ryan and Yale Divinity Professor Lanim Sanneh about whether the Church's priorities are changing.

I like some of the menu in small doses.
I don't get real excited about visiting there anymore.
And they seem to enjoy screwing up your order.
Same here. Our local McDonald's smells like burnt grease all the time and I get nauseated just walking in. Then after they screw up my order and I have to wrangle with them over that, I usually wish I had never gone there and swear I never will again.

Man up and drink the sugar water!
Whenever I'm out at eating places I always order diet, not because it's "better" for you, but because I just prefer it as I find regular to taste like fizzy syrup.
As for this, he could of donated the left overs to homeless or something, I bet the fat bastard ate it all.
Posted 19 September 2013 - 16:19
Sugar calories are alot diff than normal food calories. Yes, some people even obese people, dislike sugary drinks.
Diet Pop is mostly just flavored water with caffeine and aspartame .
Oh I know, just reminds me of those movies where some big guy or gal orders most of the menu and a diet soda so they wont be TOO much of a glutton hehe

It took him three years to plan?
Then he went to all the effort to put it on a skewer and he ate three of them then took it apart and took it home and plans to eat them when he is hungry...
Anyone else see how pointless that was?
I could go to my local McDonalds and order everything and take it home. It is not difficult, nor will it take me three years to plan.

Quote: "the extra dollar was for the Diet Coke that I added to my order"I hate people that do this, like really? DIET COKE? Like DIET makes all the bad things level out. An before someone chimes in about him not being able to handle sugar then their is no way to eat that much bread as it turns to sugar.Man up and drink the sugar water!
I understand what you're saying, for sure, but the logic isn't there. bad for you + bad for you = double bad for you. Perhaps I'm willing to splurge on a big burger because I just love them, but I don't want the massive amount of sugar and calories of a soda as well (which can be very comparable to the sandwiches do when you end up getting a meal sized drink). Why if you're eating one thing bad do you have to go all the way and make it even worse? Cutting back anything is good.
Personally I just try to limit my soda intake, diet, full octane or otherwise, just like I try to limit my fast food eating. I also never eat McDonalds at all though. It's like the worst of the worst when it comes to burgers. There are too many places you can get a decent fast food burger to go to McDonalds.

Catholic News Service Word to Life Reflection

By Aileo Weinmann on Tuesday 1st November 2005
Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin - Mark Borchardt (himself) is a man possessed by a desire to make movies, budget black & white horror flicks, to be precise. After facing the reality that his current project won't get done before he gets funding, Mark shifts his focus to making money by finishing his previous film. Titled Coven, it's about a substance-abusing writer whose spiral leads him to a self-help group that is less than supportive. As Borchardt struggles through continuous and severe setbacks, the audience comes to understand and care deeply about his passion. He is so charismatic that there may be a temptation to attribute the power of this story to his charm. Greater than this, however, is his tenacious determination at what he says is the critical juncture in his voyage. With the financial backing of his 82 year-old Uncle, seemingly inexhaustible loyalty of his friends and mother, and (quite) a few beers, Mark's core of pure energy just might be enough to fuel a victorious journey - it's certainly sufficient to infuse the audience with inspiration.
Then there's Mike Schank (himself) - musician, (very) recently reformed drug user, and source of some of the best laughs of the year. Friends with Mark since childhood, Mike is as true as they come. He's the kind of person who has somehow managed to hold on to that simple but profound wisdom often attributed to children, that usually leaves us as soon as we stop telling the truth all of the time.
In an odd sort of way, American Movie gave me the same kind of satisfaction that comes from really good down home cooking; neither needs false pretense to make you happy. In fact, it was so good, I'm thinking about going back for seconds.

Space Raiders
Space Raiders are an inexpensive British corn-based snack. They are made from corn and wheat and are available in several flavours. They are made by United Biscuits in the UK. Space Raiders are especially popular with children, but also inspire nostalgia in many British adults.[1][dubious ]
Price controversy[edit]
Space Raiders remained at a retail price of 10 pence from their introduction in the late 1970s until late October 2007, when the price increased to 15p. It later increased to 25p before lowering to 20p. The price has continued to fluctuate, reflecting the volatility of the underlying commodity prices. At the time of the original 5p price rise, directors at United Biscuits received death threats.[2] In August of 2014, Tescos ran a 10 pack multibuy offer at £1, temporarily resetting the individual pack price to 10 pence. [3]
Each crisp is in the shape of an alien head. Prior to the change in EC food colouring laws, Roast Beef Space Raiders were bright red and pickled onion ones were green. They are now a light brown colour reflecting the maize/corn ingredients.
Mini comic stories were printed on the backs of packets. They have over the years included the adventures of 'Astra and her Space Pirates' through to the current stories of aliens being afraid of the crunching sounds of Space Raiders being eaten. These, however, are now not included on the back of packets (2010) and instead there is a fact file on an alien, different for each flavour.

Nothing screams "seventies" like avocado, or "eighties condo" like that all-white kitchen with the laminate cabinet doors.
1660s, "to beat or roll into thin plates," from Latin lamina "thin piece of metal or wood, thin slice, plate, leaf, layer," of unknown origin. Many modern senses are from the noun meaning "an artificial thin layer" (1939), especially a type of plastic adhesive. Related: Laminated; laminating.

Re: wooot system done have a look
Great to hear everything went well and your happy :)
As i said in your other thread I just love this case and it's perfect for my GTX 285 who was way overheating in my P182 chassi.
And my old PSU wasn't enough eatier as I have a 8800GT 512Mb for physX so with a little help from the guys here I went for the Corsair 1000W and now everyting is perfect, I even wondering about adding another GTX 285 but then I have to get a new mobo to as I only have an DS3R - P45 Gigabyte so it will do for now!
Enjoy your setup and game on :)
Ps! Man I just have to quit put up all this smiles all the time dont i hehe!!
Re: wooot system done have a look
i really thought i wld not be able to do the setup but coz of u guys i was able to do it
thnxs again guys and any more comments on how i did for the 1st time are welcome
Re: wooot system done have a look
Congrats you did a great job :) and your air flows got to be 100% better than the old setup.
Did you get a chance to check the temps on your gtx260 after the rewire; with the case all buttoned up?
Also, with the case closed whats the noise level of the fans because if their a tad on the high side, I've got a quick cure for that.
Re: wooot system done have a look
Nice job OP, nothing like your first build. Congrats!
Doger how you liking the xonar essence? What headphones are you using it with? Do you think you could sli with it? I have a X58 gigabyte and the d2, and I want to grab another gtx260 when I can find a sweet deal on one, but I am not giving up my xonar for onboard.
Re: wooot system done have a look
Re: wooot system done have a look
Your light switches are cool! :cool:
Specs please, The 8800GT box seems to be a red herring.
Re: wooot system done have a look
I'm currently using a ATH-AD770, which doesn't require an amp, but according to most users the bass really benefits with one. However, I've got my eyes on either the AKG k701, AT-AD2000, or the Beyer dt9900. I should have pulled the trigger on one of these a couple of months ago because lately their prices have gone ballistic.
I can't see why you couldn't sli with it but if I can't, I'll be really one #@%*% off dude.

Indian kids want to live life the Disney way?
Article from: The Times of India - May 11, 2008
Its six in the evening and the neighbourhood playground is almost empty. A bunch of kids can be seen on bicycles and a few seem to be trying their hand at cricket. But the swings and the park benches are empty and there are no sounds of laughter or even fighting for that matter. The silence is uncanny.
Strange but true, till some time back, evenings at the playground saw young kids enjoying outdoor activities, shouting, ranting, fighting, playing, running and screaming. Thanks to the school bags weight increasing faster than the length of their pigtails, evenings are no longer the same. Tuitions, tests, homework, projects - theres too much much to do leaving no time to sneak out for some fun.
But that doesnt mean that kids today are in any way deprived of fun. Its only that their new source seems to be either the internet or the latest kids show on TV. Yes, evenings are now synonymous with the likes of Disney, Pogo, Jetix and Hungama. Its strange how a 12 year old might not have heard of Panchatantra but can tell you all about Hannah Montana, a show that airs on Disney. With foreign TV channels crowding the idiot box, kids are getting exposed to an almost alien culture that interests them and surely makes them question the obvious differences between them and their western counterparts. We explore how and to what extent do these foreign shows influence growing kids...
Their life seems fun!
Hannah Montana, the most popular among the foreign shows on TV (aired by Disney) is about a teenager who is also a pop star. Her double life is entertaining and a matter of envy. Shes fun. She is a singer and a normal girl also. I wish I could be two things at the same time too, says Arushi Mehta, all of 12. Probe her a little more and she chuckles, The best part is that her dad doesnt say anything to her. She gets away with everything. Arushi is not the only one. Most Indian kids believe that phirang kids have an easier life with non-interfering parents and a negligible study load. In Lizzie McGuire and Hannah Montana nobody carries a school bag, they all have lockers and look at us, my shoulder will fall off one day, cribs Shruti Khanna (13).
The roller coaster doesnt stop here. A cool cafeteria, no school uniforms, make-up, dating, prom, grade system in exams, slumber parties and pizzas for dinner, it sure seems like a life straight out of Disneyland, or Archies comics for that matter.
My 12-year-old son asks me why we cant have pizza for dinner when kids on TV have that only and they never fall sick. I try and reason with him and tell him the difference between India and the western countries and also that its only a TV show, but his demands have only been soaring, says Mansi Arora, Kunals mother.
Cross-cultural exposure will always be there and more so thanks to invasion of foreign networks and the Internet but a lot depends on how the parents guide their kids and supervise their TV viewing, says Dr Samir Parikh, a clinical psychologist. What with power jobs and both parents working 24x7 kids are left unmonitored most of the times. But according to Dr Parikh its not about controlling your children but making them understand the difference between east and west, fact and fiction.
Kids ready to have night outs!
Till the time the demand is that of a pizza for dinner, it seems reasonable, but what happens when kids who have not yet stepped in their teens want to have night outs at their friends place or a date with the prettiest girl in the grade? My 11-year-old daughter comes to me one fine day and says shes packing clothes to go for a slumber party to a friends place in the neighbourhood, says Manisha Dutt, mother of two daughters Ritu (15) and Kanika(11). I did not even know who her friend was and obviously didnt allow. But imagine, she thinks shes ready for night outs. When I asked she said, girls her age on TV are always spending time at each others place, so why not her, adds an exasperated Manisha.
Dr Parikh explains this tendency, A sense of imitation is always there among growing kids; parents need to be prepared for this. The answer is not in getting annoyed or amazed but in helping the child understand the differences. He adds, Its not the childs fault at all. Theyll obviously choose from what they have
Its all alien out there
Dr Parikhs opinion that children dont have much to choose from is not very far from the truth. The Walt Disney Company (India) Pvt. Ltd. has three channels in India which include Disney Channel, Jetix and Hungama TV. All three channels are surviving on acquired Australian, American and British content. Though even the international shows are available in both English and Hindi, there is a clear dearth of indigenous productions.
Disneys first local show Vicky aur Vetaal is loosely based on the legendry Vikram aur Betaal in a new comic avatar. The Indian show Dhoom machao dhoom is also doing well among the early teens. Dhoom machao dhoom , a story of four young girls in a school band finds itself in the privileged position of being preferred by young teenagers below 15, thanks to its aspirational kick. Even we have a band in our school in class XI and XII, when I reach that class, I will sing for it. Hope itll be as exciting as it seems on TV, says Shreya (13).
Cartoon Network had been serving international programmes, but the indigenous factor caught on and even they came up with localised content like Akbar and Birbal , Tenali Raman, Sindabad, Ramayan, Mahabharata and Vikram aur Betal . Ask the teens if they like this Indian flavour vis-à-vis the international shows and pat comes the reply, I love watching Akbar aur Birbal . Birbal is so clever and Tenali Raman is very funny too, says Kunal (12) but he also adds that hes almost addicted to Shin Chan on Hungama TV.
Pogo again draws most of its TRP from international shows that are mostly re-runs like Mr Bean . Pogo also attracted kids by showing the Harry Potter movies series. But where is the original Indian content that a young teenager can relate to?
Whats the alternative?
Honestly how can we blame the kids? Look at our Indian TV shows; they are full of violence and vulgarity too, maybe we first ought to improve the scenario back home and then point fingers at foreign shows, says Dr Parikh. True they are more exposed to international life with Internet and such shows but giving them an alternative is what we should do. Relieve them from fierce academic competition, push them towards outdoor activities and expose them to entertainment other than TV, explains Dr Parikh.
In the race for reality shows Indian producers may have overlooked this huge target audience that might be young but is difficult to please. Though foreign TV shows are doing a good job at making them smile, they are tickling their curious little brains a little too much. Maybe good local entertainment is the need of the hour or maybe the solution lies in moving beyond the four walls. What say?

3rd robbery by fake-bearded man reported
Posted: May 15, 2014 at 4:03 p.m.
A man wearing a fake beard has robbed a Northwest Arkansas business, according to a news release from the Springdale Police Department. It is the third robbery in a week in which the suspect had a similar description.
The most recent robbery happened Wednesday at 6:02 p.m. at the Career Academy Of Hair Design, 346 E. Robinson Ave. The man came into the business, demanded money and gestured as though he had a gun, though no witnesses saw a weapon. The man was described as over six feet tall, about 180 pounds with sandy brown hair and brown or hazel eyes.
He was wearing a fake beard, a blue stocking cap, a blue shirt and blue pants. The description is similar to that of suspects in the May 8 robbery of a Dollar General and a Tuesday robbery of a gas station, both in Rogers.

Space Builder: An Impulse Response-Based Tool for Immersive 22.2 Channel Ambiance Design
The convolution based Space Builder employs segments of impulse responses to construct flexible spatial designs using an intuitive graphic interface. The system uses multiple low-latency convolution engines loading data from a library of multi-channel impulse responses, a 128-channel MADI router and mixer operating at 24/96 resolution and a MIDI controller. The controller reveals different levels of complexity depending on the needs of the user. The design, architecture, and functionality of the modules and the system are described. The system provides spatial up-conversion from 1 to 24 channels and has capacity to expand the number of channels beyond 22.2. Future applications for the system, including live sound applications, will be presented.

The only reason you should hire a leader to work for you is to take work off your plate.
Hiring a leader to manage parts of the business allows you to focus on bigger work that only the CEO can do, like strategy. However, when you work around a junior leader, you not only get yourself into a lower-level management job again, you also undermine the leadership of your subordinate.
The chain of command is one of the most difficult leadership concepts for small business owners or executives to implement. Here is a simple illustration of how it works.
- A senior leader delegates responsibility for a function to a junior leader and then works through that junior leader to pass information, implement directives, and so on. The senior leader doesn't work around that junior leader to give instructions to subordinates.
- The subordinates of that junior leader pass information higher in the organization through their direct supervisor and don't go around him.
SEE ALSO: How to deal with insubordination and dysfunctional teams
Some bad things happen when you work around your leaders:
- The people reporting to your subordinate will figure out pretty quickly that he isn't the real boss — you are. They'll come to you with issues and problems and they may even start blowing off their manager. In return, you work more, while you are paying someone a leader's salary for the job you just did. You may even wind up firing him because your workload hasn't decreased, all because you never enforced the chain of command — I've seen it happen.
- You'll disillusion your subordinate. It's a tough job market, so you can hold on to her because she has nowhere else to go. But do you really want a paycheck player as a leader on your team?
- You lose leadership development opportunities. Anytime you do the job of someone to whom you've delegated leadership, you lose a training opportunity.

Feminist movies are an aquired taste
Much in life are worth the time that we spend getting used to them. Whisky is one of them. Some people claim they only liked salty liquorice after the third or fourth try; I, however, liked it instantly. But it took me a long time to appreciate whisky.
So I was thinking about movies recently, mostly because of a post that I had read about feminist movies. I don't remember much of the movie Volver. I saw it at the beginning of last year. I only remember what I felt after I'd seen the movie.
I wondered whether such movies aren't perhaps the type one gets used to … slowly. I didn't hate the movie; I had a neutral feeling about it. It was different to the movies I am used to. Most of the movies I used to watch are those with male-centric plots. Boy meets girl, they fall in love but then something happens that drives them apart. Girl cries and devises a solution to win boy back. They get back together. The End.
Even when there is no real love plot, women are not the focus; men are.
Zoolander is one of my all-time favourite movies and it has a guy as the protagonist. I have only a few favourite movies that pass the Bechdel test. This test rates movies on 3 criteria: It has to have at least two women in it; Who talk to each other; About something besides a man.
So I wonder. Should I watch Volver again? Am I a bad feminist for not liking the movie much the first time around? Or should I just find other feminist movies to watch?
I grew up on a Disney diet of Snow White and The Three Musketeers. That's what I and many others are used to. Yes, I enjoyed Monsters, Inc but it fails the Bechdel test.
I'd love feminist movies — or movies that pass the Bechdel test — to become the norm but I realise it will take a long time. Most women are OK with watching chick-flicks and men are still pandered to; women are ignored. Well, most of the time — there are a few movies that get women right. And I do not have the statistics but strong, women-centric films are mostly from Old Hollywood, European, or 'Indie'. Why? It's because women are a niche market. And you have to search high and low to find women-centric movies; Mr Video stocks blockbusters, mostly.
87 Million women in America went to the movies in 2007; 85 million men in America went to the movies during the same period. And more 60+ women than men of the same age have been going to the movies from 2003 to 2007. The MPAA 2007 Movie Attendance Study records the 40- to 59-year-old age group as the most frequent movie going group. Surely this should mean that there is a lot of scope for women-centric movies.
And surely this means that girls growing up today will not have to get used to feminist movies; they will come to see such movies as the default.

Has Clear Channel won Christmas music war?
WMYX-FM (99.1) has yet to switch to an all-Christmas music format, despite having done so for many years in competition with WRIT-FM (95.7). The stations took turns being the first to switch to the format, and when the first one did, the second followed immediately.
The Clear Channel station WRIT-FM did so last week. But while WMYX was streaming Christmas music on its website, it was still playing its regular format on the air Monday afternoon. »Read Full Blog Post(23)

ABOUT BOLD SAN ANTONIO'S PRODUCTION in 2013
Here's an image from mysa.com/Express-News from our 2013 production of Birth!
Moving between first-person monologues, dialogue, and the voices these women heard on the day they gave birth, Birth confronts "the naked truth about childbirth in America." It tells the true stories of 8 women painting a portrait of how low-risk, educated women are giving birth in America today. These stories are told with humor, sadness, joy, and drama and reveal our common humanity that begins at birth. Each performance was followed by a community talk back with local maternity care providers and consumers.
Birth was presented in San Antonio by BOLDSA2013, a grassroots coalition of organizers and performers who are committed to making maternity care in the greater San Antonio community sensitive and responsive to women and their families. This powerful play was performed over a weekend in March 2013 at the Sterling Houston Theater at Jump-Start in the beautiful King William area.
All proceeds raised at the 2013 event benefitted San Antonio Birth Doulas (SABD), a program of Catholic Charities, Archdiocese of San Antonio, Inc. SABD provides free doula services to pregnant teen mothers and free or reduced fee doula services to low-income mothers. This page from the SABD website provides additional information on the important role that doulas play during childbirth and identify the many benefits that our young at-risk mothers receive who are now giving birth and raising our next generation.
