For the first time ever, laptop users can now have a dual-drive setup on their computers. All thanks to the WD Black 2 Dual Drive.
The new internal storage device has a solid-state drive (SSD) and a regular hard drive (HDD) inside the standard laptop design. Prior to it you would have needed two separate drives to achieve the same effect, and could only do that with a desktop computer.
The reason this is significant is because this drive has fast performance and 1.2TB of storage space, without the premium cost of an SSD of the same capacity. And for this purpose, at the cost of $300, the WD Black 2 Dual Drive delivers.
In my testing, the Black 2 was easy to install and offered the equivalent performance of an entry-level 120GB SSD. Unfortunately, the drive doesn't offer a way to blend its two drives into a single partition without losing performance, which is why it's not a hybrid drive.
In all, the WD Black 2 Dual Drive is an affordable dual-drive solution with ample space for both laptops and desktops, and is an excellent choice as a replacement drive. For more options on great internal drives, check out those on this list.
Standard design, yet totally original
From the look, the WD Black 2 Dual Drive is just like any standard laptop internal drive. The drive measures 2.5 inches diagonally, is 9.5mm thick, and supports SATA 3 (6Gbps) standard. This means the drive will work with any standard laptop or desktop, but not ultrabooks which generally require thinner drives. You can install it in a computer just like you do any regular laptop hard drive.
On the inside, however, it's totally unprecedented: the drive comes with a 120GB SSD and a 1TB HDD. These two drives share the single SATA connector.
In many ways, the Black 2 is WD's answer to the solid-state hybrid drives (SSHD) from
Not a hybrid drive
The reason the WD Black 2 is not an SSHD is because the two drives on the inside are not meant to be merged. They remain two separate volumes, just as you would use two physical drives in a system. At least this is the way WD recommends it's used.
In my quick trial, I was able to merge the two into one single partition of 1.2TB. However, according to WD, in this case the system doesn't know where the SSD part begins and ends, and therefore it is not optimized for performance. In other words, if you wanted to, you could use the WD Black 2 Dual as a hybrid drive, but there's no benefit to this, at least for now. In the case of Seagate's SSHD, the drive comes with built-in algorithm to automatically allocate hot (frequently accessed) data to the SSD part.
With WD's Black 2 Dual Drive, you will see real SSD performance immediately, whereas with the Seagate's SSHD the boost in performance is only realized gradually, and the drive is never really as fast as a real SSD.
Two-step installation, no RAID support
Out of the box, when plugged into a computer only the Black 2's SSD drive is recognized, and it looks as though it's a 120GB SSD. You can install Windows on this drive (the Black 2 only works with Windows for now, but Mac support is coming soon), or clone an existing system onto it. In the latter case, you'll find the included USB-to-SATA transfer cable and Acronis drive clone and backup software very helpful; just make sure the system's old drive has less than 120GB of data on it. (If you need help cloning your system check out this how-to post. )

Brandon Marshall has proved to be one of the best receivers in the NFL over the past few seasons. But he also may be the University of Central Florida's most noteworthy NFL player ever. Even with guys like Detroit Lions running back Kevin Smith and former Minnesota Vikings quarterback Dante Culpepper also staking claim to roots with the Knights, Marshall is perhaps the most popular, and maybe even best player ever to come out of UCF. Holding such a lofty status sometimes can mean getting free stuff, something Marshall is likely already accustomed to. On Wednesday, the Chicago Bears' Pro Bowl receiver received a package from his alma mater and immediately alerted his Twitter followers. The 28-year-old wideout tweeted a photo of the package and immediately went to try on the new gear inside the Bears locker room. But while showing off his new UCF swag, he didn't realize what else he'd be showing with the photo. Marshall proceeded to send out a picture of him wearing his new black and gold gear inside the Bears locker room, but captured one of his Bears teammates naked while getting dressed in the background. Marshall deleted the tweet soon thereafter, apologizing for the photo. However, we were able to get a shot of the hilarious mistake, which can be seen (with a blurred rump) below. What a nice treat this morning waiting for me at my locker. What can it be?#UCF twitter.com/BMarshall/stat… — Brandon Marshall (@BMarshall) November 14, 2012 Sorry about my guy in the back getting dressed in that photo. — Brandon Marshall (@BMarshall) November 14, 2012

A New Jersey synagogue said that it set a new Guinness World Record by lighting 834 menorahs on 90 tables in an airport hangar.
The event planned by the Jewish Center of Princeton, N.J., took place on Tuesday night, the fourth night of Chanukah, at the Princeton Airport. It was organized by the Conservative synagogue's director of programming, Neil Wise, according to The Daily Princetonian student newspaper.
The previous record was set last year by the Merrick Jewish Centre in New York, with 782 lit menorahs.
Participants in Tuesday's event made videotape testimonies of their names, hometowns and registration numbers for official documentation for the Guinness committee, according to the newspaper.
Princeton University students and alumni, as well as members of the general community, participated in the record-setting attempt.

Data in the report came from different sources, including the Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey, the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System and the ImpacTeen State Legislative database. The ImpacTeen State Level Tobacco Control Policy and Prevalence Database
An earlier study supports the idea that states with strong tobacco-control programs can make a significant dent in smoking. According to a March report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, differences in tobacco marketing and promotion and tobacco-control programs are among the reasons why adult smoking rates are almost twofold higher in some states than others.
For example, about 28 percent of adults in Kentucky smoke, and 27 percent in West Virginia, compared with 14 percent of adults in California and 12 percent in Utah, the report found.
Dr. Norman H. Edelman, a scientific consultant to the American Lung Association, thinks that while the number of smokers has gone down, attention needs to be paid to young adults and teens.
"Clearly we have made progress in reducing smoking," Edelman said. "But we seem to be coming down to a hardcore smoker -- a young adult or teenager, poorly educated and from a low socioeconomic status -- and that's problematic. We need to focus more on those groups."

Before Surgery: Your Top 6 Hospital Risks
Pneumonia: Reducing Your Risk
In this article
Getting pneumonia after surgery can be quite serious. According to the CDC, studies have suggested that pneumonia acquired in the hospital can be fatal as often as 33% of the time. So you need to make an effort to protect yourself.
- Follow your doctor's instructions about not eating or drinking before surgery. Usually, your doctor will tell you not to eat or drink after midnight the night before surgery. You must follow that advice. If you're going under anesthesia and still have food in your stomach, fluid or vomit may back up and get into your lungs. This can lead to one type of pneumonia called aspiration pneumonia. Happily, just following your doctor's advice greatly reduces the risk.
- Ask everyone -- family, friends, doctors, and nurses -- to wash their hands. Pneumonia can be caused by bacteria and some viruses. So you need to make sure that people who touch you aren't transmitting any nasty germs.
- Ask when you can start moving around. Lying flat on your back for a long time can increase your risk of developing pneumonia. So find out when it's safe for you to start sitting up and walking around.
- Do breathing exercises. Try taking 10-15 big, deep breaths each hour. You may also use an incentive spirometer to check your lung function.
- Stop smoking. Quitting smoking has many health advantages, of course. But if you are unable to completely quit, stop for at least a week or two prior to surgery. Giving your lungs a break will make them stronger and lower your risk of pneumonia.

Coughing Up Blood (Hemoptysis)
Coughing up blood (hemoptysis) can be a sign of a serious medical condition. Infections, cancer, and problems in blood vessels or in the lungs themselves can be responsible. Coughing up blood generally requires medical evaluation unless the hemoptysis is due to bronchitis.

Newborns who have
risk factors for DDH, such as having foot, knee, or leg deformities, are
examined very closely for the condition.
Your child's hips are
also examined during regular
well-child checkups. But a baby with DDH who is older
than 1 to 3 months may have fewer visible signs, making it more difficult to
detect. These babies may have only slightly less mobility or flexibility of the
affected hip joint(s).

confirms a diagnosis of and provides treatment for DDH. Your doctor will refer
you to one of these specialists if he or she suspects your child has DDH.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 12/14/12
NEW YORK -- Joe Johnson scored 27 points, including a fall-away 19-foot jumper at the buzzer, giving the New Jersey Nets a thrilling 107-105 double-overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons on Friday night at the Barclays Center. The victory enabled the Nets (13-9) to win for the second consecutive time after five losses. The win also snapped a four-game home losing streak. The Pistons (7-18) fell to 2-12 on the road. The two teams went back and forth through the fourth quarter and two overtimes. Detroit had chances to win the game in regulation and at the end of the first overtime, but misfired on both potential game-winners. Detroit scored the first three points of the second overtime to take a 103-100 lead, then the Nets got a driving basket from Gerald Wallace, who also scored 25 points, to slice the lead, setting up Johnson's first heroics. Johnson nailed a floating running jumper in the lane with 26.2 seconds left in the second OT to give the Nets a 105-103. But an aler...

6 Ways to Protect Your Twitter Reputation
Do you use Twitter to market your business?
How's your Twitter reputation?
Twitter's short form messages require the same care you put into Facebook and other longer-form social media platforms.
In this article, I'll show you six tips to help you protect your Twitter reputation by avoiding some common mistakes.
#1: Verify Everything You Tweet
False information spreads like wildfire on Twitter. Celebrities die and resurrect daily, inaccurate news gets exposure, bad links get passed and misattributed quotes receive thousands of retweets.
5 Ways Twitter Chats Can Help Your Business
Does your business use Twitter?
Have you considered using Twitter chats as a marketing tool?
As the use of hashtags on Twitter continues to flourish, conversations built around specific hashtags—or Twitter chats—have become commonplace.
While you may be familiar with how to use Twitter chats for personal networking, you might not know they can also be used by brands to achieve business goals.
In this post, I'll show you 5 ways your business can benefit from Twitter chats.
#1: Connect With Customers and Prospects
Hosting an event is a great way for a business to bring its potential and current customer base together to learn, engage and build a deeper relationship. Not all businesses can host a conference or seminar, but every business can host a Twitter chat.
The key to hosting a Twitter chat that helps your business connect with potential and current customers is to choose a topic that resonates with your customer base. Whole Foods, for example, hosts a weekly Twitter chat that discusses (you guessed it) food.
HubSpot hosts a weekly Twitter chat that discusses the science and data of inbound marketing. Their Twitter chat is run in conjunction with a weekly webinar on inbound marketing, which makes it a great lead generation tool for their business. Especially considering that, according to the Hashtagify tool from CyBranding, the #scichat hashtag gets an average of 12 million weekly impressions.
How to Generate Twitter Leads With Their New Lead Generation Cards
Are you struggling to generate leads on Twitter?
Wondering how to display richer data in a tweet?
In this article, I'll show you four steps to getting more leads with Twitter lead generation cards.
Why Twitter Lead Generation Cards?
There are 500 million tweets sent every day (according to Twitter's recent IPO documentation).
That's a lot of noise to compete with.
Enter Twitter's lead generation cards.
Lead generation cards work directly within your promoted tweet to collect users' contact information in exchange for your offer.
What Are Twitter Lead Generation Cards?
Is your business using promoted tweets on Twitter? Would you like to get more from them?
Twitter lead generation cards increase conversion rates by capturing in-app form-fills from your followers. Think of them as embedded landing pages within your tweets, except they're much more concise and require much less work from your followers.
Here's an example from The Barista Bar.
4 Examples of Excellent Twitter Customer Service
Do you use Twitter to stay connected with your customers?
Have you integrated Twitter into your customer service strategy?
Would you like to know which companies are doing this best?
Why Twitter Customer Service?
Gone are the days when people would call up a company and complain.
Now, people are more likely to head to their smartphones or computers to tell the world how terrible a product or service is.
That's why customer service is becoming increasingly important on social media platforms like Twitter.
A study done by Simply Measured showed that 99% of brands are on Twitter, and 30% of them have a dedicated customer service handle. The average response time was 5.1 hours with 10% of companies answering within an hour, and 93% of companies answering within 48 hours.
Here are 4 companies with exceptional customer service on Twitter and key takeaways to help you improve how your customers perceive your company on Twitter.
#1: JetBlue Excels in Responsiveness
Airline delays are one of the most common causes of customer frustration. Not only do delays happen often, but also people are pretty vocal about their feelings when their flight is delayed.
Acknowledging this, @JetBlue ensures they're responsive to their customers because they understand it's important for continued customer loyalty. Not only do they engage with happy customers, but they also respond to and help frustrated customers as quickly as possible.
How to Find Great Content to Share on Twitter
What content are you sharing on Twitter?
Do you struggle to find interesting, relevant things to tweet about every day?
In this post, I'll show you how to curate content your followers will love so you can build a loyal community on Twitter.
Why Curate?
Today most marketers understand the need to create informative and relevant content. But it's equally important to curate informative and relevant content.
In addition to creating great content for your site, the links to the other people's content that you share on Twitter also matter.
When you share good content on Twitter, the kind your audience loves, it's easier to build a strong community. And sharing great content will also increase your credibility in your industry.

How to Use Twitter for Business and Marketing
Is Twitter a part of your social media marketing?
Or have you let your Twitter marketing drop off lately?
In any case, with the latest Twitter updates, trends in multi-screen usage and real-time marketing, you'll likely want to take a fresh look at what Twitter has to offer.
Here's a checklist of everything your business needs to do to get on (or back on) Twitter and start seeing great results.
About Twitter
Twitter is a short message communication tool that allows you to send out messages (tweets) up to 140 characters long to people who subscribe to you (followers).
Your tweets can include a link to any web content (blog post, website page, PDF document, etc.) or a photograph or video. If a picture is worth a thousand words, adding an image to a tweet greatly expands what you can share to beyond the 140-character limit for tweets.
People follow (subscribe) to your Twitter account, and you follow other people. This allows you to read, reply to and easily share their tweets with your followers (retweet).
3 Ways Sharpie is Engaging Teens With Social Media
Are you wondering how to connect with the younger generation on social media?
Could your business benefit from connecting to the 80% of online teens using social media?
In this article I explore how Sharpie has successfully garnered 89% market share with the aid of social media.
The Teen Market
Instagram is now the most popular photo-sharing site among teens age 12-17. One million of them visited the site last July alone.
Add to that the 93% of social media–using teens who have a Facebook account (according to Pew Internet research), and the 16% who use Twitter (a figure that has doubled in recent years), and you've got a lot of teenage eyeballs.
But to connect with a teen target market, you must do more than simply have a presence on the sites they use. You must also pay attention to what motivates and inspires them.
Take some tips from permanent marker manufacturer Sharpie. Their successful 2012 Back to School campaign helped grow their market share to 89% of their category through a savvy understanding of how teens use social media.

Peoples Trust warns clients about security: Roseman
A Vancouver-based bank found its online database vulnerable to hackers. It hasn't opened up about the incident, except to affected customers.
Share via Email
Peoples Trust is a federally-regulated bank, known for providing high rates on savings products.
You can get 1.8 per cent on an online savings account and 2.1 per cent on a one-year guaranteed investment certificate at the Vancouver-based bank, which is a member of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corp.
But this small bank, started in 1985, may soon be known for something else besides high savings rates.
"Nothing is more important to Peoples Trust than the privacy and security of your information," the company says. "Unfortunately, privacy incursions are becoming more and more common."
This is an oblique reference to a privacy incursion involving Peoples Trust and a database used to accept online applications. There is no information at the website and no news release has been issued — at least, not yet.
About 12,000 to 13,000 customers have been notified in writing that their personal information may be at risk.
In September, Peoples Trust heard from eight people (four customers and four non-customers). They had received a text message purporting to be from the company, asking them to call a long-distance number in the 801 area code (Utah).
"We don't communicate that way," chief operating officer Bill Moffatt said in an interview, adding that the text message was somewhat illiterate.
"The phone number was not in service and is still out of service. We check it every day."
Peoples Trust, alarmed by the text messages, hired a forensic investigator who found signs that one of its databases had been hacked by an IP address originating in China.
However, there was no evidence that customers' information was actually taken from the database.
"This database was totally separate from our banking system, so no banking information, such as balances, account numbers, logins or passwords could be obtained," the company said in a letter to affected clients, dated Oct. 25.
"The personal information that may have been accessed includes customer name, address, telephone number, email address, date of birth and social insurance number."
The people who received letters, Moffatt said, were a small minority of the total number of retail depositors. The company is still trying to track down those who may have moved.
Carol, a customer who contacted me, didn't like being told to ask for her credit report from Equifax and TransUnion (Canada's two credit reporting agencies).
"I do it periodically and know it's a cumbersome process to receive a free copy," she said. "Shouldn't Peoples arrange for current credit reports from each organization to be sent to the affected people?"
Moffatt said the company had paid the credit bureaus to put a flag on the customers' reports. This would alert lenders to a possible data compromise and warn them to take steps to verify their identity before proceeding.
The flag would stay on their credit files for six years unless customers called the bureaus to have it removed.
Lucy, whose husband received a letter, felt it was easier to change your banking information than to change your social insurance number.
"If you forget your password, Peoples resets it to be a portion of your SIN. This seems ridiculous, given the breach," she said.
"The company is responsible for safeguarding personal information and did not do so. Further, there is no warning at the website about this."
Moffatt admitted responsibility for hackers getting into the database. The company's systems were supposed to be tested for security later this month.
"We regret what happened. It shouldn't have happened. It won't happen again, since we have emptied the database," he said.
Peoples Trust is talking to computer experts and plans to run security tests more often in the future. It also plans to publicize the incident soon.
If you're a customer, check for irregularities in your account. And if you get emails or text messages purporting to be from Peoples Trust asking for personal information, call 1-855-286-8505 to report it.
You can also contact Peoples Trust's privacy officer Darren Kozol in Vancouver at 1-604-331-2238 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com .

I'd be so happy if you actually read my profile before emailing or winking at me. Literacy is the first step toward winning my heart.
My time is valuable to me, and I will assume you feel the same way about yours. In the spirit of thoughtfulness, allow me to save you some time: -If you are divorced or separated, thanks, but no thanks. -If you have or want children, I'm likely not the gal for you. The closest I'll ever come to wanting kids may be to become a foster parent to teenagers. -While I don't attend a church, I do believe in God and consider myself to be religious rather than spiritual. (Having) faith is important to me. -If you smoke, drink, use drugs, or use drugs recreationally, thanks, but no thanks. Family is important to me. I have six nieces and a nephew whom I love dearly. I. LOVE. MY. JOB. How many people can say that these days? I work a lot, and I don't mind it because my work is so rewarding. However, I wouldn't mind being distracted occasionally. You would just have to understand - and be okay with - the fact that I am independent and am in a serious, long-term relationship with my work. But I will happily make room in my life for the right person! I have three cats. Love 'em. You will, too, I'm sure. I'm typically a quiet person who has my outgoing moments. I will try new things. Like buying tickets to DC United's 2013 season after going to one game I bought via Livingsocial. What a fantastic experience! On my to-do list this year: Bermuda! Sarcasm is incredibly appealing to me. I began practicing Bikram yoga in December. Why did I wait so long to try it!! I'm a big Scrabble nerd. A dork in general who can laugh at herself. I have a ridiculous obsession with the history of the English monarchy and the Stuarts of Scotland, and after seeing "Les Mis", I've been reading non-stop about that time period and, of course, the French monarchy. I played several instruments growing up and through college. I missed it and a friend inspired me to pick up one of them up again this spring. I really believe and find value in living by the Golden Rule and being honest. If any of this appeals to you, feel free to drop me a line.

My parents and my sisters also have cats. (I started the trend in my family.) If you don't like cats, think they're creepy, or have cat allergies, we're likely not meant to be. I would eventually love to have dog(s), too.

I LOVE INDIAN FOOD! Bars/clubs-not my thing. I've always wanted to go to Iceland, Alaska, Antarctica (the Ice Marathon is a goal of mine), and Greenland. Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic are on that list, too.

PEANUT BUTTER. Fruit. Indian/Moroccan inspired things. Splashing in puddles! Written on the Body. My family. Rocky IV & the Underworld & Resident Evil movies. Thunderstorms. Eight hours of sleep! Reading about the history of the British monarchy.
I am working on creating balance between work and non-work life again. The problem is that I LOVE what I do and the people with whom I work, so I don't mind the long hours I choose to put in. It's all worth it to me.

An unprecedented and timely collection that captures the global vision of Dr. King?in his own words
Too many people continue to think of Dr. King only as ?a southern civil rights leader? or ?an American Gandhi,? thus ignoring his impact on poor and oppressed people around the world. "In a Single Garment of Destiny" is the first book to treat King's positions on global liberation struggles through the prism of his own words and activities.
From the pages of this extraordinary collection, King emerges not only as an advocate for global human rights but also as a towering figure who collaborated with Eleanor Roosevelt, Albert J. Luthuli, Thich Nhat Hanh, and other national and international figures in addressing a multitude of issues we still struggle with today?from racism, poverty, and war to religious bigotry and intolerance. Introduced and edited by distinguished King scholar Lewis Baldwin, this volume breaks new ground in our understanding of King.
Author Bio
The son of a Baptist minister, Martin Luther King, Jr. graduated from high school at age 15 and entered Morehouse College in Atlanta. At age 18, he was ordained a Baptist minister and preached at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, where his father was pastor. In 1948, he graduated from Morehouse with a degree in sociology. In 1951 he received a divinity degree from Crozer Theological Seminary and married Coretta Scott, a student at the New England Conservatory of Music. At this point in his life, King became deeply influenced by Gandhi and his philosophy of nonviolence. He also read Thoreau and was influenced by his essay "Civil Disobedience." He earned a Ph.D. in 1955, from Boston University (and, in 1957, a divinity degree from the University of Chicago). King became the pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama, and led a successful boycott, initiated by the refusal of Rosa Parks to give up her seat on a bus to a white person. The issue went all the way to the United States Supreme Court and the victory was a key historical event in the civil rights movement. King was selected by Time magazine as one of 10 outstanding personalities of 1956. In his first book, STRIVE TOWARD FREEDOM: The Montgomery Story, he told the story of the bus boycott. King was the target of much hate, including threats to his home and family, and an assassination attempt that nearly ended his life. He was also a target of the FBI. King formed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957, along with many other leaders and ministers, including Ralph Abernathy.King returned to Atlanta, where, with his father, he became co-pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church. During the Kennedy administration, he worked hard on encouraging federal intervention in the South, with some success and some disappointment. A newsworthy person, King was frequently arrested and one of his classic texts is "Letter from Birmingham Jail". King stood fast to his principles of nonviolence and his method of mass confrontation and protest. He saw the importance role of the mass media in bringing the horrors of segregation to the American public. On August 28, 1963 King delivered the famous "I Have a Dream" speech before the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963. The event is seen as pivotal in the civil rights movement and the speech is considered one of the finest pieces of oratory ever delivered in America. In the following year, Congress passed a strong civil rights bill and King received the Nobel Peace Prize. King was Time magazine's Man of the Year 1963. He was a prolific writer of speeches and sermons, and author of several books including WHY WE CAN'T WAIT. King's focus in the late '60s turned to the war in Vietnam and to poverty in America. On April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated in Memphis Tennessee. His legacy lives on in the Atlanta-based King Center for Social Justice. A national holiday was passed in 1983.Hunter-Gault attended the University of Georgia in 1961 as one of the first two students to integrate the campus. More recently she became a PBS commentator.Lewis V. Baldwin is associate professor of religious studies at Vanderbilt University. Baldwin is the author of several books on the thought and influence of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Unity On XMir Performance For Nouveau Gallium3D
On Friday I delivered the first benchmarks of Ubuntu's Unity desktop running on XMir -- the X.Org Server compatibility layer for talking to the Mir Display Server. Those benchmarks showered there was noticeable performance overhead to running XMir with Intel's graphics driver. Later benchmarks showed XMir 2D performance was also negatively affected. In this article are benchmarks looking at the XMir performance with the Nouveau driver.

2D Performance Also Impacted By Unity On XMir
Earlier today I delivered the first benchmarks of Ubuntu's Unity 7 running over XMir to run the current X11 desktop atop the Mir Display Server via this compatibility layer. These benchmarks documented the performance impact of running OpenGL games when having to deal with XMir rather than just a clean X.Org Server running on the hardware. The extra step in the rendering process did result in a measurable performance impact, especially when the performance of the open-source Linux graphics drivers is already lower than their proprietary brethren. The benchmarks to now show illustrate that the 2D rendering performance also takes a hit when running Unity on XMir.

The Linux Evolution For Intel Haswell's Performance
While the Intel Haswell CPUs were just launched days ago, there's already quite a Linux story to them. The Haswell CPU is interesting and the performance is good, but there's still extra headroom to make especially when it comes to the graphics driver and performance relative to Intel's Windows driver. Even so, the Intel Haswell Linux support has already evolved a great deal.

Btrfs vs. EXT4 vs. XFS vs. F2FS On Linux 3.10
Building upon our F2FS file-system benchmarks from earlier in this week is a large comparison of four of the leading Linux file-systems at the moment: Btrfs, EXT4, XFS, and F2FS. With the four Linux kernel file-systems, each was benchmarked on the Linux 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10-rc1 kernels. The results from this large file-system comparison when backed by a solid-state drive are now published on Phoronix.

Challenge Cup: Widnes Vikings hold Doncaster at bay
Last Updated: 20/04/13 10:09am
Patrick Ah Van: Crossed for Widnes' first try
Widnes were given a scare by Kingstone Press Championship strugglers Doncaster before sealing a place in the last 16 of the Challenge Cup with a 42-28 victory.
The Vikings trailed 12-0 after 16 minutes and could never relax before finally dashing the battling Dons' giant-killing hopes.
Doncaster were still in contention when Widnes led only 28-24 until 15 minutes from time with 19-year-old Adam Lawton's hat-trick proving crucial for the Vikings.
The Dons took a 12th-minute lead with Mike Emmett dummying his way over and Stu Sanderson landing the conversion.
It became worse for Widnes after 16 minutes with Paul Cooke's inside pass allowing full back Mick Butterfield to crash through Shaun Briscoe and Steve Pickersgill to stretch over with Sanderson tagging on the goal.
The Vikings had to wait until the 24th minute top open their account with Jack Owens collecting Joe Mellor's long pass to send Patrick Ah Van over in the corner, with the centre converting his own try to cut the gap to 12-6.
Widnes had a let off when Emmett was held up over the line but drew level when skipper Jon Clarke broke clear with the supporting Briscoe racing under the posts.
Nathan Powley almost burrowed over for the Dons but Widnes went into an 18-12 interval lead when sub Adam Lawton took a return pass from Briscoe to go over after the half-time hooter.
Cruel luck
It was cruel luck for Doncaster who fell further behind when Mellor engineered Briscoe's second try soon after the restart.
The visitors refused to throw in the towel and Cooke's kick was dropped by Briscoe with the veteran stand off sending Lee Waterman scampering through to cut the gap to 24-18.
Owens had a Widnes try correctly disallowed for a forward pass from Kevin Brown before Flynn's touchdown gave his side a 10-point cushion.
But sloppy Vikings defence allowed Brett Waller to go over after 63 minutes with Sanderson's fourth conversion making it 28-24.
Widnes added a sixth try through Macgraff Leuluai before Lawton bagged his second touchdown.
Lawton completed his treble before Sanderson notched a fifth try for the battling Dons, who deserved their ovation at the final hooter from the Vikings fans.

CFN's 2007 Annual Ultimate
College Football Playoff
East Division - Round One
No. 16 Mississippi State
20 ... No. 17 Kansas 13
Mississippi State picked off four Kansas passes and got a combined 244
rushing yards from the 1-2 rushing punch of Anthony Dixon and Robert
Elliott to win a sloppy game. The Bulldog passing game struggled with
Michael Henig completing just six of 19 passes, but he hit Elliott on a
five-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter and scrambled for a
21-yard run down to the three to set up a fourth quarter Dixon run for a
20-6 lead. Drive after Kansas drive stalled, but Todd Reesing, who
alternated with Kerry Meier, led the offense to a crisp 81-yard drive
culminating in his one-yard touchdown plunge to pull to within seven.
MSU never gave the ball back, running out the final 3:31.
of the Game - Mississippi State RB Tony Dixon ran 15
times for 130 yards and a touchdown and Robert Elliott ran 19 times for
114 yards and caught a touchdown pass.
Fun Stat - Rushing yards: Mississippi State 314 -
Kansas 53
2nd Round - No. 16
Mississippi State vs. No. 1 Oklahoma
No. 12 Notre Dame 42 ...
No. 21 Memphis 20
The rebuilding Fighting Irish offense had few problems as Evan Sharpley
was razor sharp completing his first 14 passes including touchdown
passes to John Carlson, David Grimes and George West for an early 21-0
lead. A ten-yard Travis Thomas touchdown run gave the Irish a 28-0 lead
just before halftime, and the Tigers never threatened to make it a game
despite 414 passing yards from Martin Hankins. Duke Calhoun caught two
fourth quarter touchdown passes for Memphis.
of the Game - Notre Dame QB Evan Sharpley completed 19 of
24 passes for 285 yards and three touchdowns.
Fun Stat - Passing Yards: Memphis 414 - Notre Dame
8 Maryland 31 ... No. 25. UTEP 30
Maryland appeared to be on the way to a walk in the park as Darrius
Heywood-Bey caught two touchdown passes and Lance Ball ran for
touchdowns from 31 and 14 yards out on the way to a 31-10 lead with just
over ten minutes to play, and then UTEP roared back. The two-headed
Miner quarterback tandem of Lorne Sam and Trevor Vittatoe became all
Vittatoe, as he completed 15 of 19 passes for 210 yards and three
touchdowns in the fourth quarter, including a swing pass to Marcus
Thomas for an 11-yard touchdown with :38 to play to pull within one.
With the momentum its way, UTEP chose to go for two, but Vittatoe was
sacked by Dre Moore and never got the pass off.
of the Game - Maryland RB Lance Ball ran 25 times for 157
yards and two touchdowns
Fun Stat - Turnovers: Maryland 4 ... UTEP 0
2nd Round - No. 12 Notre Dame vs. No. 8 Maryland
No. 5 Penn State 45 ... No. 28
Florida Atlantic 10
Happy Valley was nervous when Penn State got off to a sluggish start
allowing a 55-yard Frantz Simeon touchdown and a field goal for a 10-0
Owl lead. And then the Nittany Lion offense took over as Anthony Morelli
threw three second quarter touchdown passes and Austin Scott added two
short scores in the third quarter to pull away. Derrick Williams put a
cap on the 45-0 scoring run with a 69-yard punt return for a score.
of the Game - Penn State WR Derrick Williams caught seven
passes for 119 yards and a touchdown and returned five punts for 104
yards and a score.
Fun Stat - Florida Atlantic 1st quarter yards: 168
- Florida Atlantic yards over the rest of the game: 38
No. 9 Oregon 28 ... No. 24
San Diego State 14
All eyes were on the Oregon offense under new coordinator Chip Kelly,
and while the Ducks weren't consistent, they came up with just enough
big plays to overcome a big day from San Diego State's Kevin O'Connell.
The Aztec quarterback ran for 113 yards and a touchdown and threw for
256 yards and a 15-yard score to tie it at 14 midway through the third
quarter, but Oregon's Jonathan Stewart took the ensuing kickoff for a
score, and tore off a 64-yard touchdown run on the Ducks' next drive to
pull away. The last three Aztec drives were stopped with a turnover.
of the Game - Oregon RB Jonathan Stewart ran 21 times for
226 yards and two touchdowns and returned three kickoffs for 165 yards
and a score.
Fun Stat - Third down conversions: San Diego State
8 of 15 - Oregon 1 of 10
2nd Round - No.
9 Oregon vs. No. 5 Penn State
No. 13 Utah 55 ... No. 20 North
Carolina 16
Questions about Utah QB Brian Johnson's repaired knee were quickly
answered as he ran for three touchdowns and threw for three more as the
Utes jumped out to a 45-9 lead after three quarters. North Carolina's
offense sputtered and coughed all game long, and wasn't able to take
advantage of two early Utah turnovers deep in its own territory getting
field goals instead of touchdowns. Brian Hernandez caught touchdown
passes from 55 and 17 yards out for the Utes.
of the Game - Utah QB Brian Johnson ran 15 times for 66
yards and three touchdowns and completed 16 of 24 passes for 239 yards
and three scores
Fun Stat - Total yards: Utah 538 - North Carolina
4 Florida 62 ... No. 29 Buffalo 0
Buffalo was outmanned from the start as Florida end Derrick Harvey
forced a fumble on the first play from scrimmage which Dustin Doe took
for a 32-yard touchdown. The Bulls gained just 164 yards on the day,
most on a 71-yard drive late in the fourth quarter, while the Florida
offense got touchdowns on its first five possessions with QB Tim Tebow
running for two scores and throwing touchdown passes to Andre Caldwell,
Louis Murphy and a 41-yard rainbow to Percy Harvin for a 42-0 halftime
lead. Backup RB Chris Rainey ran for touchdowns from 53 and 33 yards out
in the second half.
of the Game - Florida QB Tim Tebow completed 14 of 25
passes for 241 yards and three touchdowns and ran 12 times for 44 yards
and two scores.
Fun Stat - Rushing yards: Florida 302 - Buffalo 9
2nd Round - No. 13 Utah
vs. No. 4 Florida
No. 15 Southern Miss
... No. 18 Stanford 10
In a game that might set back offense several years, Southern Miss
took advantage of two turnovers to get Damion Fletcher touchdown
runs from 14 and 22 yards out for a 14-3 lead early in the fourth
quarter. Stanford's offense struggled to sustain any long drives,
but finally got going with a crisp 11 play, 73-yard march finishing
with a nine-yard Evan Moore touchdown grab with 2:21 to play.
Fletcher rumbled for 41 yards to run off the remaining time.
of the Game - Southern Miss RB Damion Fletcher ran 35
times for 157 yards and two touchdowns.
Fun Stat - Third down conversions: Southern Miss 3
of 14 - Stanford 2 of 13
2nd Round -
No. 15 Southern Miss vs. No. 2 Wisconsin
No. 22 New Mexico State 35 ... No. 11 Virginia 31
New Mexico State set the pace early with a 78-yard march finishing with
an 11-yard touchdown catch from Chris Williams on the opening drive, and
Virginia couldn't keep up. The Aggie defense couldn't contain Virginia
QB Jameel Sewell, who ran for 137 yards and two touchdowns and threw for
two scores, but the offense made up for it. Chase Holbrook bombed away
61 times for 493 yards and five touchdowns, highlighted by a 57-yard
third quarter circus play from A.J. Harris, who took a short pass and
weaved his way through the secondary for a 28-14 lead. Down 35-28 with
just over six minutes to play, the Cavaliers kicked a 39-yard field
goal, but didn't get the ball back until there were just 13 seconds to
play. The offense couldn't get past its own 25.
of the Game - New Mexico State QB Chase Holbrook
completed 41 of 61 passes for 493 yards and five touchdowns
Fun Stat - Rushing yards: Virginia 309 - New Mexico
State -19
7 Auburn 21 ... No. 26 Ball State 14
The Auburn offense struggled to get going, with QB Brandon Cox having a
horrible day completing just seven of 21 passes with three
interceptions, but Brad Lester ran for two touchdowns and Tristan Davis
took the opening kickoff of the second half 98 yards for a touchdown to
avoid the upset. Ball State QB Nate Davis threw for 341 yards with two
touchdowns to Darius Hill, but he also threw three interceptions and was
sacked seven times. The Cardinals struck first on a five-yard catch from
Hill, but didn't get back on the board until the third quarter and never
got past midfield on their final four drives.
of the Game - Auburn DE Quentin Groves made nine tackles,
four sacks and two tackles for loss
Fun Stat - Turnovers: Auburn 5 - Ball State 4
2nd Round -
No. 22 New Mexico State vs. No. 7 Auburn
No. 6 Nebraska 42 ... No. 27 Arkansas
State 0
Nebraska QB Sam Keller got picked off on his first two passes, but he
bounced back to compete 13 of his next 15 passes with three first half
touchdown passes to put the game out of reach in the first 20 minutes.
The Arkansas State running game went nowhere early, and the passing
attack never got off the ground with just 71 yards on the day. Terrence
Nunn caught two scoring passes, while RB Marlon Lucky ran away with the
offense with 110 second half yards and two scores.
of the Game - Nebraska QB Sam Keller completed 20 of 28
passes for 266 yards and three touchdowns in three quarters of play
Fun Stat - Total yards: Nebraska 469 - Arkansas
State 187
10 South Carolina 30 ... No. 23 UNLV 17
UNLV appeared to be on the way to a shocking upset with a 17-3 halftime
lead thanks to two Ryan Wolfe touchdown catches, but the Gamecock
defense turned up the intensity in the second half, holding the Rebels
to just 54 yards and three first downs. The USC offense scored on all
five of its second half possessions, getting field goals from 41 and 39
yards from Ryan Succop, short touchdown runs from Cory Boyd and Mike
Davis, and a 57-yard touchdown catch from Kenny McKinley in the fourth
quarter to pull away.
of the Game - South Carolina LB Jasper Brinkley made 15
tackles, four tackles for loss and two sacks
Fun Stat - First half yards: UNLV 191 - South
Carolina 67 ... Second half yards: South Carolina 294 - UNLV 54
2nd Round - No. 10 South Carolina vs. No. 6
No. 14 Hawaii 58 ... No. 19
Connecticut 27
UConn RB Donald Brown ran for 257 yards and three touchdowns, but the
Huskies didn't have nearly enough offense to keep up with the
high-powered Hawaii passing game. The running game wasn't there for the
Warriors, but Colt Brennan was razor-sharp with a 519-yard passing day
with seven touchdown passes. Davone Bess caught 256 yards worth of
passes with three touchdowns, and Jason Rivers made 11 catches for 188
yards and two scores, including a 77-yarder to kick off the scoring. A
36-yard Brown scoring run tied it at 14 in the second quarter, and then
Hawaii went on a 35-point run to put the game out of reach.
of the Game - Hawaii QB Colt Brennan completed 41 of 54
passes for 519 yards and seven touchdowns and ran six times for 37 yards
Fun Stat - Net rushing yards: Connecticut 298 -
Hawaii 22
No. 3 Georgia Tech 41 ...
No. 30 Utah State 6
Georgia Tech jumped out to a 24-0 first quarter lead helped by two
Tashard Choice touchdown runs and a
brilliant 19-yard
leaping scoring grab from James Johnson. The Yellow Jacket defense got
into the act forcing five turnovers with safety Jamal Lewis returning an
interception 36-yards for a second quarter score on the way to a 38-0
halftime lead. The Aggies didn't get on the board until late, with a
ten-yard Marcus Cross touchdown run, when Tech was emptying the bench.
of the Game - Georgia Tech LB Phillip Wheeler made 13
tackles, recovered a fumble, intercepted a pass, and made two tackles
for loss

The 2013 NBA Draft is in full swing tonight and as usual with any sporting event. I'm watching it and tweeting "ish" as each pick is announced and Bill Simmons continues to add nothing to the ESPN draft coverage. Anywho….. I'm not the only person watching the draft and tweeting/critiquing each pick made by the teams. So is former Oklahoma City Thunder And current Houston Rocket swing man/Dwight Howard recruiter, James Harden. Shortly after his former team, the OKC Thunder selected C, Steven Adams from Pitt, Harden tweeted his opinion of the pick. He was amused to say the least. I wonder if his response was him saying, "You got him to team up with Durant as I have Howard coming to H-town in a couple of weeks to team up with me." If that was the case, Harden realized that his tweet was going to be seen by the whole world so he deleted the tweet shortly after posting it. I'm sure he will say his phone was stolen or account was hacked. You know, the typical celebrity response when keeping it real on twitter goes wrong.

Mains bleed fuel into the throat, big mains bleed more counteracting some of the need to fatten the low end.
No 45's because I find them too rich at altitude...and I'm on my way back from freaking Colorado! I did get them to work at home well but the climb up to 4-5000' always revealed that the bottom starts to choke. I want it to work everywhere and return good mileage...even at a loss of some power...though 45's absolutely rock at low elevations... 3rd gear wheelies!
2nt leanest clip btw, not from the pointy end. I find the 3rd bleeds more fuel into the low circuit, complicating getting the bottom to run well. Fat mains multiply that problem. I get good throttle response, no hole at needle opening so I see no reason.

How wonderful to find all eight utensils still tied in its original box. This set with blue and white wood handles includes a beater, ladle, flipper, peeler, masher, and spoons. The set was made in the USA by the A&J Company and is called "Mother's Little Helper". The box illustrates a girl helping her mother in the kitchen with her own utensils. Around the edges of the box are four different poems expressing the joy of learning how to cook. The box top is separated from the edges and appears to have old tape in places. The utensils are tied into the box with string. They are in great condition except for some pitting on the metal.
