Finch sets up big Aussie totalComment on this story
Harare, Zimbabwe – Aaron Finch's third one-day hundred since the start of the year helped Australia rack up a formidable 327 for seven against South Africa in the second match of a triangular series in Harare on Wednesday.
Finch's 102 came on the back of the two centuries he scored against England at the start of the year, and was supported by fifties by Phillip Hughes and George Bailey.
Finch shared an opening stand of 92 with Hughes, who was brought into the side as Australia left out spinner Nathan Lyon, and then added 114 for the third wicket with Bailey.
While it was thought that Australia would be the rustier of the two sides given that their only ODI since January was Monday's 198-run win over Zimbabwe, it was South Africa who looked as though their minds were still on the fishing break they enjoyed after beating Zimbabwe 3-0 in a series last week.
The bowlers regularly missed their lengths, with Wayne Parnell taking the most strain as he went for 66 runs in seven overs.
Legspinner Imran Tahir was able to stem the flow when he dismissed Hughes for 51 and then Mitchell Marsh, but Finch and Bailey responded by scoring at more than seven runs per over in their partnership.
Ryan McLaren broke the stand when he had Finch caught at deep square-leg, and Morne Morkel backed that up with the wickets of Bailey, who was caught behind for 66, and Glenn Maxwell.
However, Steve Smith clubbed 31 from just 19 deliveries and then Mitchell Johnson scored an unbeaten 23 from eight deliveries to assure Australia of a strong finish. – AFP

Pediatrics Research Seminar Series: Cancer Progression Is Driven By Double-Edged Leukocytes Influenced By Genetic Variation
The Department of Pediatrics Research invites investigators with expertise in the field of pediatric tumors or relevant areas of research to present the recent findings to faculty, students and post-doctoral fellows.
Date: 2/12/13, 9am to 10am
Time: 2/12/13, 9am to 10am
Location: Smith Research Building, Conference SRB1.122
Format: Seminar/Conference
Facilitator: Vidya Gopalakrishnan, PhD
Speaker: Jose R. Conejo-Garca, MD, PhD
Speaker Bio: Dr. Jose R. Conejo-Garcia is an Associate Professor with the Wistar Institute. Dr. Conejo-Garcia's current research explores the biology of a subset of immune cells known as dendritic cells, which are co-opted by ovarian tumors to protect them from the immune system as a whole, rather than boosting protective immune responses His laboratory has discovered that eliminating these immune cells from the tumor microenvironment kills ovarian tumor cells and may slow aggressive forms of the cancer.

First of all, I want u all to know that I am a Christian evangelist and actually took time to read the koran aloud in English, voice-recording it, and have posted it online at http://koranreadaloudbyachristian.posterous.com ; this is NOT an endorsement of the koran but I undertook the project as way to meet the Muslim community half-way ...thinking if I am going to ask them to read my (our) Bible, at least I can take the time to read their koran and truly see what it says for myself. Having done so, I can say that there are parts of the koran which, if taken as a solo verse out of context, can create a pretext..and maybe even some Muslims misread their own koran..just as verses in the Bible, if taken out of context, could become a pretext likewise...as a whole, the koran is somewhat peaceful and advocates peace, in general..that was my impression..and how many Muslims live peacefully, without violence or advocating violence? It is a small fraction of Muslims who misread the Koran to support violence and death..; having said all of this, I am NOT in support of Pastor Jones burning of the Koran, BUT those Who say "Look what he caused, the death of people" (in retribution, allegedly, for the burning )...if radical muslims think that the burning of one koran (which is paper, nothing more) justifies the killing of 7 people (or more now) where's the GREATER PROBLEM? In fact, in so doing u DID prove PASTOR Jones point.
If a Muslim burned a Bible I know of NO CHRISTIAN GROUP that would justify the killing of a single person in response. These so-called radical Muslims are NOT REAL MUSLIMS, just as when u hear about a so-called "Christian" doing something horrendously anti-Biblical..u know that this was NOT a real Christian and therefore does NOT TAINT the name of all Real Christians..I invite u all to listen to the koran at http://koranreadaloudbyachristian.posterous.com or read it somewhere (many sites online, different versions) ...NOT to believe it as gospel (only the Bible is gospel truth), but to get a feel for it as literature. The Bible itself, while being the Word of God, is also just paper and ink ..by itself, in the hands of an unbeliever, the Bible has no power..it is only with faith that the Bible has power like a two-edged sword (of faith & peace)..but u can burn my Bible and it doesn't burn me or my faith..in fact it adds another spark to my faith..if u burn my Bible I will get another one..and if u burn ALL the Bibles, its already written on my mind and in my heart and I will re-write it, along with other Christians who know the word better than I ..nothing can stop the Spirit..burning the koran was wrong, but killing people in response was a billion times worse...shame on the media for headlining it as the fault of Terry Jones. & Shame on the terrorists (not real Muslims) for killing people in response.

Cheap Chocolate Fondue
The key to great food is it has to be easy. It has to be inexpensive and it has to be good. I am a huge fan of Cheap Chocolate Fondue. We have three children and they love to eat anything you can dip. I make a cheese fondue that is also cheep, easy, and yummy. Madame Deals Cheese Fondue is yummy! Well, back to the recipe you have been waiting for. I think you are going to say to yourself , "Why didn't I think of that?" Then you are going to the store to grab the ingredients.
Cheap Chocolate Fondue
You will need a pot it doesn't have to be a fondue set.
Icing pick your flavor
1/4 cup of milk or heavy cream depending on your budget
You will simple place the icing in the pan and turn it on warm and you will add a little bit of heat as you stir in the liquid.
That is it once it is done then you can use a fondue put or a mini crock pot or the pot and serve the fondue.
You can add these yummy treats to your mix: nuts, coconuts, or a variety of liquors
This is an example of the treats we served to our children. You can also add cheese cake, cherries, bananas, pound cake, cookies, pineapple and what ever you would like to eat dipped in chocolate. You can tell that my children loved this treat. we have tried it with all different icings. We have tried milk, dark, and butter creme icing. You can try them all as well since they are so inexpensive.

Additional Location Information
Excellent, September 6, 2009
By Harold Vore (Santa Claus, IN)
We stayed with a party of 15. The two units were great. The owner was honest and responsive. All units in the complex are privately owned and well kept. Okaloosa is a great island. Beaches are almost as good as Siesta Key (best in the world). Price is much less. Destin is just far enough to easily get to and get away from. Most of the time, the pictures give a better image than reality. In this case, the pictures do not do this condo full justice. Nicely decorated, very comfortable. I've visited Daytona, Sarasota, Ft. Myers, Jacksonville...overall, this (Ft. Walton) was the best.

Roomy Condo on beautiful beach
Flora, Il. USA
Review Submitted: June 10, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2010
I don't travel much, so was completely "green" to condo rentals. Bill (the owner) was very helpful--communication was great!
We had a large family group that stayed in this condo for the purpose of having a beach wedding. It was a very nice, roomy unit on a really beautiful white beach. From the front balcony, we had a view of the Gulf and the beach. We were a little nervous about how other residents would feel about us taking over a part of the beach for the wedding, but they were very receptive to it. Several people even pulled their chairs close, while others watched from the balcony. It was really nice!
There was a variety of stores within a short distance, and a wonderful fishing pier just down the road.
Would highly recommend this property to anyone, but especially someone on a budget traveling with a large group. Nice, large unit at a very reasonable price.

Sarah Palin Goes Hunting for Food
Sarah Palin is putting food on her family's table the old fashioned way: She's going reindeer hunting!
In a sneak peek of this Sunday's episode of Sarah Palin's Alaska, Palin, 46, notices that the meat supply at her family's home is running low.
VIDEO: Sarah Palin and Kate Gosselin go camping
"There's no grocery store nearby," the former Governor explains. So, she and her father trek out to the Alaskan wilderness for a multi-day hunting trip -- where they'll encounter wolves, bobcats and other creatures.
"We don't have the advantage -- the animals have the advantage," she says.

I'm pretty sure you cant. Resources are allocated per-context, and context work in a single thread at a time.
This prevents any sort of multi threading since you cant:
a. Do GL calls against a single context in multiple threads.
b. Do GL calls in different contexts and share the results between them.
So if you want to draw in two different windows, AFAIK, you'll have to use different contexts and replicate the work from one to the other. Or you can handle everything in a single application that draws to two different places in the same window and context.
EDIT: NVM, you can switch windows as L Spiro said

In a lovely circular twist, the tapestry's true subject turns out to be the luxe of which it's an example.
A tapestry like this was the ultimate luxury good and status symbol, worth so much more than a measly painting.
I am thrilled because the subject matter is rich, but I like that it is a tapestry of color, which is very much needed.
It looks as if it has been made from a Medieval tapestry, the colors rich and worn-looking.
This tapestry was woven in Flanders in about 1500 for a noble French client.
And the tapestry room is not far from yours, my little Jeanne, so you can keep your toys and books together.
On the walls were hung some pieces of tapestry, where there were not bookcases.
Dosser, dos′er, n. a rich hanging of tapestry for the walls of a hall or of a chancel: a pannier.
The posters, maculated with filth, garnished like tapestry the sweep of the curbstone.
One of the pieces of tapestry worked in Bayonne in 1066 shows the figure of a man driving a horse harnessed to a harrow.
mid-15c., variant of tapissery (early 15c.), from Middle French tapisserie "tapestry" (14c.), from tapisser "to cover with heavy fabric," from tapis "heavy fabric," from Old French tapiz (12c.), from Vulgar Latin *tappetium, from Byzantine Greek tapetion, from classical Greek, diminutive of tapes (genitive tapetos) "tapestry, heavy fabric," probably from an Iranian source (cf. Persian taftan, tabidan "to turn, twist"). The figurative use is first recorded 1580s.

Missouri: Woman Handcuffed for Waiting to Stop in Lit Area
Young female motorist who feared that unmarked car may have been driven by police impersonator is handcuffed because she waited to stop in a well-lit area.
Motorists followed by an unmarked car with flashing police-style lights are often told to activate their flashing emergency lights and wait for the nearest well-lit area before pulling over. An attractive young female motorist who followed this advice found herself held at gunpoint, handcuffed and searched by real police officers in Greene County, Missouri last week.
Just before 2:40am on June 5, twenty-two-year-old Vanessa Kimery passed through one of the state's many speed traps. An unmarked police cruiser pulled behind her vehicle and activated its lights. Kimery immediately put on her flashers and slowed to acknowledge the vehicle behind. She then drove less than a mile to the nearest well-lit area, a convenience store parking lot. For this, Kimery was ordered out of the car at gunpoint and surrounded by three police deputies.
"Put your hands up where we can see them," a sheriff's deputy yelled. "Hands up. Hands up. Turn around. Keep your hands up."
Kimery was handcuffed and led by one deputy away from her vehicle so that the another could enter it to conduct a search. Kimery, in hysterics, was checked for signs of intoxication by two officers who were calm and polite throughout the interrogation. One asked why she was being so emotional.
"Because you put me in cuffs!" she cried. "I'm sorry. I put my flashers on. I thought you could do that."
Kimery had feared that the unmarked car may have been driven by a police impersonator. Exactly one year ago, two women were attacked in Howell County by by a man driving a Ford Crown Victoria with red-and-blue lights mounted on the dash. Several other states have similar problems with
robbers and rapists taking advantage of police use of unmarked cars
to trap their victims on dark, rural roads.
The deputies released Kimery after writing her a ticket for allegedly driving 10 MPH over the limit and failing to yield to a police vehicle. In the wake of bad publicity on the local television station that broke the story, KYTV, police agreed to drop the failure to yield charge.

My family and I manage this property with great care as it is a jewel in Puerto Vallarta, not only for the beauty of its architecture, but for its tradition of being the meeting place for stars and artists. Since 1955 my uncle, the designer Xavier de la Torre, discovered Vallarta and decided to live in. He hosted celebrities who gave life to Villa Leonarda.
I grew up around personalities like Burt Lancaster, Peter O'Toole, Rock Hudson, Charles Collingwood, Louise Allbritton, Louis Nevelson and many others.
The Night of the Iguana attracted its protagonists Deborah Kerr, Ava Gardner, filmmaker Gabriel Figueroa and the legendary director John Huston into Villa Leonarda.
Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were my Godparents and took me to live with them to London in 1969. Michael, Christopher, Lisa and Maria enjoyed many holidays between Villa Leonarda and Casa Kimberly.
Villa Leonarda is open now so you can have a wonderful experience and joys of modern facilities in a unique Villa.
Left on Oct 31, 2011 for a stay in November 2010
If Villa Leonarda did not exist, it would have to be invented! This dream of a place is definitely a destination of its own. Floating in between old days and modern times, Villa Leonarda makes you plunge into the long lost luxury of escaping everyday life.
Tucked away in the corner of a cobblestone street in the very heart of Old Puerto Vallarta, the big wooden door of Villa Leonarda opens up …

Hi all --
Building a WP website for a friend and running into issues trying to combine functionalities of plug-ins. Using WP e-Commerce to allow him to showcase his CDs [he is a musician and has four different albums that need to be displayed], as well as sell the physical discs through the website. Seems to be working well so far.
We've created high-quality 30-second MP3 samples of all his CD tracks that should be visible from the product page for each CD in the form of an inline MP3 player. I've been toying with the MP3 Player plugin by Thomas Norberg but I can't seem to figure out how to produce multiple playlists or iterations of the player [in other words, a playlist for each album]. Each player iteration would ideally be able to display the playlist for each CD individually and allow users to select individual samples to play, based on which CD's product page they're in at the moment.
Does such a player exist, or am I just not using Norberg's MP3 Player plugin correctly?

MWC 15: LG Demos WebOS Smartwatch ("Urbane LTE")
Subject: General Tech, Mobile, Shows and Expos | March 1, 2015 - 09:46 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: webOS, smartwatch, mwc 15, MWC, LG
A while ago, LG licensed WebOS from HP for use in their smart TVs and, as we found out during CES, smart watches.
The LG Urbane LTE is one such device, and we can finally see it in action. It is based around (literally) a circular P-OLED display (320 x 320, 1.3-inches, 245 ppi). Swirling your finger around the face scrolls through the elements like a wheel, which should be significantly more comfortable to search through a large list of applications than a linear list of elements -- a lot like an iPod (excluding the Touch and the Shuffle). That said, I have only seen other people use it.
The SoC is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400, clocked at 1.2 GHz. It supports LTE, Wireless-N, Bluetooth 4.0LE, and NFC. It has 1 GB of RAM, which is quite a bit, and 4GB of permanent storage, which is not. It also has a bunch of sensors, from accelerometers and gyros to heart rate monitors and a barometer. It has a speaker and a microphone, but no camera. LG flaunts a 700 mAh battery, which they claim is "the category's largest", but they do not link that to an actual amount of usage time (only that it "go[es] for days in standby mode").

Pricing has not yet been announced, but it should hit the US and Europe before May arrives.
CES 2015: Audi & LG Partner on Smartwatch Running webOS
Subject: General Tech, Mobile, Shows and Expos | January 8, 2015 - 03:26 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: smartwatch, LG, ces 2015, CES, audi
There is a unique smartwatch at CES this year, which unfolds to become a camera quadcopter. I guess surprisingly, for some people, a selfie stick is not offbeat enough. And that's fine, more power to them.
Image Credit: Android Central
There is also a second, unique smart watch at CES this year because it does not run Android (or iOS). The unnamed device, which is a collaboration between LG and Audi, is powered by webOS. In case you missed it, LG has licensed webOS from HP for use in its smart TVs. The operating system is open source under the permissive Apache license.
When Android Central was playing around with the watch, they noticed the listing of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 SoC (MSM8626). The 8626 is a quad-core, ARM Cortex A7-based processor (up to 1.2 GHz) with a Qualcomm Adreno 305 GPU. This is a fair amount of power for a smartwatch, although core count and frequency could be reduced for battery life.
With Mobile World Congress coming up in
February (update Jan 9th @ 11:30am: sorry for the mistake... it's the first week of March), we might see more details soon.

LG Announces 34UM67 UltraWide Gaming Monitor with AMD FreeSync
Subject: Displays | December 31, 2014 - 10:29 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: LG, 34um67, ultrawide, 21:9, CES, ces 2015, freesync, adaptive sync
Let the variable refresh rate monitor battle begin! This week LG has announced a gaming-specific 21:9 aspect ratio monitor that features support for AMD's FreeSync variable refresh rate technology. LG joins Samsung as monitor vendors that have officially thrown in hats with the AMD-backed and VESA standard Adaptive Sync technology rather than NVIDIA's G-Sync (or maybe in addition to).
The new 34UM67 is a flat, 34-in 21:9 aspect ratio display; a style that is becoming increasing popular among enthusiast and gamers as they offer expanding views in some games without the need to use multiple monitors in a Eyefinity or Surround configuration. LG has not announced the resolution yet but I assume that since they aren't bragging about it openly, that we are looking at a 2560x1080 screen rather than 3440x1440. Still, coupling that resolution with support for a variable refresh technology should provide an impressive gaming experience.
Here is what the official press release has to say about the new LG 34UM67 being shown next week at CES:
LG's UltraWide Gaming Monitor (34UM67) is the company's first 21:9 monitor specifically developed for graphics-intensive gaming. AMD's FreeSync technology eliminates the screen tearing that occurs when the monitor and graphics card are out of sync. Furthermore FreeSync technology guarantees the smoothest and most seamless gaming experience, generating fluid motion without any loss of frame rate.
"AMD FreeSync technology is an innovative monitor technology, based on free and open industry standards, to eliminate the tearing and stuttering that has plagued PC gaming for 30 years," said Roy Taylor, corporate vice president of ISV/IHV Partner Group, AMD. "We are pleased that LG Electronics stands with us with truly exciting AMD FreeSync-ready displays like the LG UltraWide Gaming Monitor."
The 34UM67 also has an exceptional UltraWide field of view (FOV), allowing gamers to gain the upper hand by revealing hidden spaces that were invisible on regular 16:9 monitors. The monitor's Black Stabilizer illuminates dark scenes and helps to clearly define the deep black areas where objects and enemies could be hidden. The Dynamic Action Sync mode minimizes input lag, enhancing users' real time gaming experience. Many popular games such as Battlefield 4, World of Warcraft and ArcheAge currently support 21:9 resolution with more games expected to support this resolution in the future.
Support for 21:9 resolutions is still spotty in most PC titles and can result in the same kind of FOV scaling issues we see with Eyefinity. More games are including direct support for these monitors and hopefully 2015 will see a focus on that with each game release.
I still have a lot of questions about AMD's FreeSync technology and how it will stand up to the effectiveness of NVIDIA G-Sync, but I am eager to see it first hand. CES will provide the first opportunity for us but we will obviously need extended time with panels in our offices to make a final decision.
LG 31MU97 Professional DCI 4K Monitor Now Available
Subject: Displays | November 3, 2014 - 08:36 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: LG, digital cinema 4k, digital cinema, adobergb, 4k
When we mention 4K monitors, they typically have a resolution of 3840x2160. Digital Cinema 4K adds an extra 256 pixels horizontally, yielding 4096x2160 (an aspect ratio between 17:9 and 19:10). LG Electronics has just released a monitor at this resolution for video and graphics professionals, and its feature set is strongly focused on that market.
First, with a Digital Cinema 4K resolution, the monitor is capable of previewing content in that resolution without scaling or cropping. Alternatively, software could preview consumer 4K ("UltraHD") and have a little leftover room for user interface elements.
What really sets this apart from other monitors is its color space features. This is an actual IPS panel, providing wide viewing angles, and it supports 10-bit color input for smoother gradients. Its color space is large, too. Beyond sRGB, it also covers 99.5% of the AdobeRGB color space and 97% of the DCI-P3 gamut. LG even has a mode that splits the monitor into two, one side in AdobeRGB and the other in sRGB. This is intended for artists and publishers to see content both in the color space of professional printers (AdobeRGB) and websites on consumer displays (sRGB).
While I believe this panel is rated at 60 Hz, it does not explicitly say that anywhere (that I found). I emailed LG for clarification and I will update if/when they reply. Update (Nov 4 @ 7:45pm EST): Still no word from LG, but one reader pointed me to an Overclockers UK product page that claims 60 Hz over DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort. A second reader claims to own one of these monitors, which is running at 60Hz over Mini DisplayPort. It sounds like it supports 60Hz SST.
If it is a 60 Hz panel, this is an interesting, 31-inch display, especially at an MSRP of $1399.99. It undercuts competitors, like the Dell Ultrasharp 32, by over a thousand dollars. The LG 31MU97 is available now at a few online retailers.
The abysmal adoption rate of desktop and mobile touchscreens
Subject: General Tech | September 22, 2014 - 12:34 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: win 8, dell, Samsung, LG, Lenovo, hp, touchscreen, IDC
The International Data Corporation's latest Worldwide Quarterly PC Monitor Tracker shows that there were a mere 32.5 million touchscreen monitors shipped in Q2 2014, which accounts for 0.4% of the discrete monitors sold. This may have been a direct influence on the pitiful market penetration of Win 8 in SMB and Enterprise, as the much touted touchscreen support was meaningless to their users interaction with computers. The mobile side is a bit better but not much; DisplaySearch pegs the percentage of laptops with a touchscreen sold in 2013 was about 11% with a predicted 40% share by 2017 which still falls short of representing half of the market. You can pop by The Register for a link to some of the findings.
"Market monitor IDC's latest word on monitors goes some way to explaining limp enthusiasm for Windows 8: people just aren't buying touch-screen monitors.
Windows 8's user interface was designed to work on mouse-driven and poke-enabled devices. It's racked up plenty of sales, but not much love."

CES 2014: LG Launching Updated Mobile PCs
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | January 3, 2014 - 10:49 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: tablet, tabbook 2, LG, laptop, hybrid, CES 2014, CES
CES 2014 is not until next week, but that has not stopped several companies from offering a bit of a "sneak peek" of what they will be showing off in Las Vegas on the show floor. One such company is LG Electronics, which is launching at least three new mobile devices of the convertible tablet and laptop flavors. Specifically, LG is introducing a new Ultra PC L3Z940 laptop and two Tab-Book 2 tablets (11T540 and 11T740). The devices in the updated lineup are powered by Intel's latest Haswell CPU, run the full version of Windows 8.1, features LG IPS displays, and are lighter and faster performing than their predecessors.
The LG Ultra PC L3Z940 is a 13" notebook weighing 980 grams and measuring up to 13.6mm thick. It has a full keyboard and a 13.3" 1080p IPS display and 4.4mm bezels. The display has a reading mode that adjusts the screen to make reading easier on the eyes. Internal specifications include a Haswell Core i5 processor and a 128GB or 256GB SSD.
The new Tab-Book 2 convertible tablets are mobile devices with a slider-style hardware keyboard and laptop-class internals. The PCs have 11.6" 10-point multi-touch displays as well. The LG Tab-Book 2 11T740 is an 11.6" tablet measuring 16.7mm thick and weighing 1.05 kg. It is powered by an Intel Haswell Core i5 processor. It has a 400 nit screen. The Tab-Book 2 11T540 is the smaller brother to the 11T740 with slightly reduced hardware specifications. However, the tradeoff allows LG to offer a convertible tablet that is slightly thinner and lighter at 13.7mm and 930 grams.
LG has not yet released further details on its updated hardware, but expect at least some of those details to be released at CES next week. Stay tuned to PC Perspective for more CES 2014 goodness as it hits our (virtual) desks!

LG V960 All-In-One PC Announced at IFA 2013
Subject: General Tech, Displays, Systems | August 31, 2013 - 03:25 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: LG, AIO, 21:9
HDTVs have an aspect ratio, the proportion between width and height, of 16:9. This, more noticeably rectangular, format was seen as a suitable compromise between 4:3 tradition and the many widths of theatrical releases. Computers, high resolution since the 90s (give-or-take) to fit more stuff on screen, first adopted many HD innovations.
Widescreen, however, was firmly resisted. Internet video was not popular or even known to the general public. Vista, with its sidebar optimizations, was expected to make 16:10 tolerable. 16:9 was too wide to even be considered an effective option for documents and websites.
I must say: I don't know how I'd live without Sidebar making my monitor feel wastefully narrow and...
... normal.
Now that the public is comfortable with 16:9, because at some point it ceased to be scary for display manufacturers, some are experimenting with even wider niches. 2560x1080 has about a third more width than a "FullHD" panel to add another side-by-side-by-side document to edit or snapped website to refer to. At this point, if people want to buy it, do it.
LG, at IFA 2013, unveiled their V960 all-in-one (AIO) desktop. This computer is housed inside a 29" 21:9 (technically 64:27, but those numbers are big and scary) IPS display. Despite lacking a touchscreen, and despite OSX screenshots for its also announced plain monitors in its promo image, the AIO comes with Windows 8 pre-installed. It houses a mobile GeForce GT 640M GPU and... well that is about all we know of its internals.
The company believes that you might use some screen width for picture-in-picture TV browsing. LG is not too clear on what functionality will be available to the V960. Other monitors in the line contain a TV tuner, but they never specified whether the AIO would have a tuner or just an HDMI input. Also unclear, whether video inputs are accessible to the computer for DVR functionality or whether it is delivered straight to the display.
The LG V960 was on display at IFA 2013. No pricing and availability information has been announced by LG.
LG Launches Enact Smartphone With Physical Sliding Keyboard
Subject: General Tech | August 22, 2013 - 06:58 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: verizon, smartphone, physical keyboard, LG, enact, Android
LG recently launched a new slider smartphone called the Enact on the US Verizon network. The new smartphone pairs low-to-midrange hardware with a physical keyboard and Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
The LG Enact measures 4.37" x 2.06" x 0.62" and weighs 5.99 ounces. A black chassis surrounds a 4" touchscreen display with a resolution of 800 x 400 and front-facing VGA webcam. A physical keyboard slides out from the left side of the phone and a 5MP camera (with auto-focus) is located on the back of the smartphone along with a LED flash. The keyboard's five row layout includes full qwerty and a top number row along with arrow keys in the bottom-right corner.
Internal specifications include a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8930 SoC, 8GB of internal storage, wireless radios, and a 2,460 mAH Li-ion battery. The MSM8930 SoC includes a dual core ARM CPU clocked at 1.2GHz and a Adreno 305 GPU. Wireless functionality includes 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, and GPS. The smartphone runs Android 4.1.2.
The LG Enact has a full retail price of $349.99, and a subsidized price of $19.99 with a 2 year contract through the Verizon website. The smartphone has modest specifications and an older version of Google's mobile operating system, but it does offer up a physical keyboard and is the latest in an increasingly rare product type.
Higher than High Definition ... we need a better name for 2560 x 1440

Hardware.info had a chance to review 14 different 2560x1440 displays of which all but three they could find for sale; prices ranged from $500 to $950. That price range is interesting as all of the displays reviewed were 27" models, so the disparity is not caused by larger screens. Gamers may want to head straight to their findings on Response Time and Input Lag but you should spend the time to read the whole round up if you are more interested in the colour accuracy.
"Most IT product categories tend to evolve rapidly, but developments in computer monitors have been decidedly slower. Although larger screens are slowly becoming more affordable, the most common resolution remains 1920x1080 pixels. Nonetheless, this year we're seeing more and more manufacturers release WQHD monitors. Hardware.Info collected 14 different models of these very impressive monitors and tested them to find out which is the best one to get."

As instructed in the README and here http://code.google.com/p/pymssql/wiki/Compilation, I've installed Cython (v0.14.1), FreeTDS (v0.82 using MacPorts), and I already have XCode installed with gcc.
I've run into build errors during
python setup.py install:
a lot of
undeclared name not builtin: with things like
PY_LONG_LONG as well as a few
___ is deprecated, use 'cpython'
Google found me this thread http://groups.google.com/group/cython-users/browse_thread/thread/468bb80480ede699/dc8267a4274c2413 where someone addresses the first error (changed to
from libc.string cimport strlen, strcpy from
from stdlib cimport strlen, strcpy.)
Now I'm getting:
_mssql.pyx:650:34: Cannot convert Python object to 'const_char *'
Here is the file that these issues are coming from http://code.google.com/p/pymssql/source/browse/tags/1.9.908/_mssql.pyx
My question:
If I have not prepared my system correctly for
pymssql what have I done wrong?
If the
_mssql.pyx file is using deprecated imports how do I fix them?

As in the first edition, my guiding philosophy in writing this book has three elements. The first element is my belief that in the long run students are best served by learning basic concepts in a general setting. Second, I believe that students need to be motivated by seeing how the principles apply to specific and interesting problems in their own fields. The third element of my philosophy is to take every opportunity to make learning free of frustration for the student.
This book covers circuit analysis, digital systems, electronics, and electromechanics at a level appropriate for either electrical-engineering students in an introductory course or nonmajors in a survey course. The only essential prerequisites are basic physics and single-variable calculus. Teaching a course using this book offers opportunities to develop theoretical and experimental skills and experiences in the following areas:
While the emphasis of this book is on basic concepts, a key feature is the inclusion of short articles scattered throughout showing how electrical-engineering concepts are applied in other fields. The subjects of these articles include anti-knock signal processing for internal combustion engines, a cardiac pacemaker, active noise control, and the use of the Global Positioning System in surveying, among others.
I welcome comments from users of this book. Information on how the book could be improved is especially valuable and will be taken to heart in future revisions. My e-mail address is firstname.lastname@example.com
Two CDs are included with this book. One contains the evaluation version of LabVIEW 6I which is briefly discussed in Section 9.4. LabVIEW has become the industry standard software package for engineering instrumentation and testing. The intention is to make students aware of how LabVIEW coupled with a personal computer and a data acquisition board can be used to rapidly create special-purpose instrumentation and control systems. Later when they have the need to design such systems, they will have enough knowledge to establish a proper direction for further development of their computer-aided instrumentation skills.
The second CD contains Orcad Family Release 9.2 Lite Edition. This is a powerful suite of programs produced by Cadence Systems for circuit analysis and design. In Appendix D, we show how to use Capture for entering circuit diagrams and setting up analyses, PSpice for analyzing the circuit, and Probe for viewing results. A number of circuits selected from throughout the book, starting in Chapter 2, are taken as examples. Students find computer-aided analysis to be an effective method for extending their "feel" for circuits and for checking some of the answers obtained through traditional analysis.
Besides the evaluation programs, the virtual instruments (LabVIEW programs) and circuit files discussed in the book are included on the CDs. Furthermore, solutions to the in-chapter exercises, answers for selected end-of-chapter problems, and summaries of key equations for each chapter are included in pdf files on both CDs.CHANGES AND NEW FEATURES IN THE SECOND EDITION
The book includes various pedagogical features designed with the goal of stimulating student interest, eliminating frustration, and engendering an awareness of the relevance of the material to their chosen profession. These features are:
Courses based on this book provide excellent opportunities to meet many of the directed outcomes for accreditation. The Criteria for Accrediting Engineering Programs (for evaluations during the 2001-2002 accreditation cycle) require that graduates of accredited programs have "an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering" and "an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems." This book, in its entirety, is aimed at developing these abilities.
Also, graduates must have "an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as analyze and interpret data." Chapter 9, Computer-Based Instrumentation Systems, helps to develop this ability. If the course includes a laboratory, this ability can be developed even further.
Furthermore, the criteria require "an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams" and "an ability to communicate effectively." Courses based on this book contribute to these abilities by giving nonmajors the knowledge and vocabulary to communicate effectively with electrical engineers. The book also helps to inform electrical engineers about applications in other fields of engineering. To aid in communication skills, end-of-chapter problems that ask students to explain electrical-engineering concepts in their own words have been added in this edition.
The LabVIEW and Orcad PSpice software packages distributed with this book contribute to developing "an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice."SOLUTIONS MANUAL AND WEB SITE
Students can find solutions for the in-chapter exercises and answers (without solutions) for selected end-of-chapter problems on both of the CDs included with the book and on the web site. The web site also contains many links to interesting sites related to topics covered in the book.
Any corrections that may be needed for the book or solutions manual will be posted on the web site as they are found.CONTENT AND ORGANIZATION Part I Circuits
Chapter 1 defines current, voltage, power, and energy. Kirchhoff's laws are introduced. Voltage sources, current sources, and resistance are defined.
Chapter 2 treats resistive circuits. Analysis by network reduction, node voltages, and mesh currents is covered. Thévenin equivalents, superposition, and the heatstone bridge are treated.
Capacitance, inductance, and mutual inductance are treated in Chapter 3.
Transients in electrical circuits are discussed in Chapter 4. First-order RL and RC circuits and time constants are covered followed by a discussion of second-order circuits.
Chapter 5 considers sinusoidal steady-state circuit behavior. (A review of complex arithmetic is included in Appendix A.,) Power calculations, ac Thévenin and Norton equivalents, and balanced three-phase circuits are treated.
Chapter 6 covers frequency response, Bode plots, resonance, and filters. The basic concept of Fourier theory (that signals are composed of sinusoidal components having various amplitudes, phases, and frequencies) is qualitatively discussed. A section on digital signal processing has been added in this edition.Part II Digital Systems
Chapter 7 introduces logic gates and the representation of numerical data in binary form. It then proceeds to discuss combinatorial and sequential logic. Boolean algebra, De Morgan's laws, truth tables, Karnaugh maps, coders, decoders, flip flops, and registers are discussed.
Chapter 8 treats microcomputers with emphasis on embedded systems using the Motorola 68HCll as the primary example. Computer organization and memory types are discussed. Digital process control using microcontrollers is described in general terms. Finally, selected instructions and addressing modes for the 68HCll are described. Assembly language programming is treated very briefly.
Chapter 9, which is new in the second edition, discusses computer-based instrumentation systems including measurement concepts, sensors, signal conditioning, and analog-to-digital conversion. The chapter ends with a discussion of LabVIEW including an example virtual instrument that students can duplicate using the evaluation version on their own computers.Part III Electronics
Chapter 10 presents the diode, its various models, load-line analysis, and diode circuits such as rectifiers, Zener-diode regulators, and wave-shapers.
In Chapter 11, the specifications and imperfections of amplifiers that need to be considered in applications are discussed from a users perspective. These include gain, input impedance, output impedance, loading effects, frequency response, pulse response, nonlinear distortion, common-mode rejection, and dc offsets.
Chapter 12 contains a totally revised treatment of the MOS field-effect transistor, its characteristic curves, load-line analysis, large-signal and small-signal models, bias circuits, the common-source amplifier, and the source follower.
Chapter 13 gives a similar treatment for bipolar transistors. If desired, the order of Chapters 12 and 13 can be reversed. Another possibility is to skip most of both chapters so more time can be devoted to other topics.
Chapter 14 treats the operational amplifier and many of its applications. Non-majors can learn enough from this chapter to design and use op-amp circuits for instrumentation applications in their own fields.Part IV Electromechanics
Chapter 15 reviews basic magnetic field theory, analyzes magnetic circuits, and presents transformers.
Dc machines and ac machines are treated in Chapters 16 and 17, respectively. The emphasis is on motors rather than generators because the nonelectrical engineer applies motors much more often than generators. In Chapter 16, an overall view of motors in general is presented before considering do motors, their equivalent circuits, and performance calculations. The universal motor and its applications are discussed.
Chapter 17 deals with ac motors starting with the three-phase induction motor. Synchronous motors and their advantages with respect to power-factor correction are analyzed. Small motors including single-phase induction motors are also discussed. A section on stepper motors has been added.ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Tomorrow's Engineers
Finding and developing practical ways to provide the energy needed for modern technical societies on a sustainable basis without disrupting the environment is the most important problem confronting the coming generation of engineers and scientists. Among the proposed energy sources, two of which (solar and wind) are used by the dandelion to grow and disperse its seeds are:
Enhanced power grids may need to be built to distribute energy from some of these proposed solutions. Conservation must also play a part, possibly including:
Regardless of which solutions ultimately emerge, it is certain that all of the topics discussed in this book will play important roles. For example, see the Practical Application concerning energy-storage systems for electric vehicles starting on page 100.See all Product Description

Can I stop migration from my old MacBook Pro to my new one, use the new one and restart migration later? I forgot to customise migration and everything is coming over yet I only need the documents and not the photos etc for now. I need to use one of the Mac Book Pros for work so want to stop the migration process. 16 hrs left using Ethernet connections!
