Samsung is the latest company to announce its fleet of dock-able tablet computers running the full version of Windows 8. Launched under the ATIV Smart PC brand, the company is offering up two models depending on the amount of computing horsepower you need to get work done. Specifically, Samsung is launching the Series 5 ATIV Smart PC 500T and the Series 7 ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T. Both models will be available for purchase on October 26th for $749.99 and $1,199.99 respectively.
Samsung Series 5 Slate: ATIV Smart PC 500T
The Samsung Series 5, also known as the ATIV Smart PC 500T is a 11.6" tablet powered by Intel's recently released Clover Trail-based Atom processor platform. It measures 11.6" x 7.2" x 0.38" and weighs 1.65 pounds.The tablet features a LED-backlit touchscreen display with a resolution of 1366x768. A 2.0 megapixel camera and dual 0.8W speakers are also included. The tablet itself can further be paired with a keyboard dock that has a full qwerty keyboard and touchpad.
Internal specifications include an Intel Atom Z2760 processor (running at 1.5 GHz and featuring dual cores with 256 KB each), 2GB of DDR2L memory, and a 64 GB solid state drive. Radios and networking gear includes 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.0. [The specifications sheet further claims Gigabit LAN support but there does not appear to be any Ethernet jacks on the tablet so I'm assuming it's solely marketing to say that it supports connecting to a Gigabit LAN (over Wi-Fi)...] The 500T is powered by a two cell, 30 watt-hour lithium-polymer battery.
The external IO ports include a micro HDMI port, one USB 2.0 port, a combination headphone/mic jack, a microSD card slot, and a docking connector.
The Samsung ATIV Smart PC 500T will come pre-loaded with the 32-bit version of Windows 8. The tablet itself is $649.99 and with the keyboard dock, it will be $749.99.
Samsung Series 7: ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T
If you need more computing power, Samsung is offering up its newest Series 7 slate, the ATIV 700T. This tablet is slightly thicker than the 500T at 11.6" x 7.2" x 0.5". It is also a bit heavier at 1.89 pounds versus 1.65 pounds with the 500T. That tradeoff in size nets you significantly better hardware, however. It features a LED-backlit touchscreen with a resolution of 1920x1080. It further includes the same 1.6W (2 x 0.8W) stereo speakers, but adds a second 8MP rear camera in addition to the 2MP front facing webcam.
Internally, the 700T is packing an Intel Ivy Bridge Core i5-3317U processor. This chip is a dual core part with HyperThreading for a total of four threads along with 3 MB of L3 cache. The 700T features 4 GB of DDR3 at 1600MHz and a 128GB solid state drive. Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi also comes standard. The 700T also has a larger 4 cell Li-Po battery (rated at 49 Wh) to power the faster Intel processor.
External IO includes one micro HDMI, one USB 3.0, a combination headphone/mic jack, docking connector, and a micro SD card slot.
The Series 7 ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T comes bundled with a dock as standard and it has a starting price of $1,199.99. It will come pre-loaded with the 64-bit version of Windows 8.

Intel Planning 10-core Xeon E5-2600 V2 Ivy Bridge-EP CPU
Subject: Processors | October 17, 2012 - 10:48 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: xeon E5-2600 v2, lga 2011, Ivy Bridge-EP, Intel, 22nm
A recently leaked slide reveals one of Intel's upcoming Xeon-branded server chips coming in Q3 2013. The Xeon E5-2600 V2 is an Ivy Bridge-EP processor and will be compatible with motherboards featuring the LGA 2011 socket.
The Xeon E5-2600 V2 in particular has a 70W TDP (thermal design power) rating while the highest-end Ivy Bridge-EP CPUs will have TDPs of up to 130W. The E5-2600 V2 has 10 physical cores, and with HyperThreading it can handle a maximum of 20 threads. Each physical core has access to 256KB L2 cache and the chip has a total of 30MB L3 cache. Further, this (and other) Ivy Bridge-EP processor will support up to 1866MHz DDR3 system RAM.
Interestingly, the Xeon E5-2600 V2 is merely the middle of the road part for Intel. The company will be releasing processors that are even higher-end than this one. They will have up to 12 physical cores which means up to 24 threads. And paired with Intel's 22nm manufacturing process and 3D transistors, these chips will fit right into workstations and server rooms.
Sony Launches VAIO Duo 11 Convertible Tablet Ultrabook Running Windows 8
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | October 13, 2012 - 06:55 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: windows 8, tablet, sony vaio, sony, Ivy Bridge, Intel, convertible tablet
Not content to let the other OEMs have all the Windows 8 tablet fun, Sony has announced a new 11" convertible ultrabook – the VAIO Duo 11 – that uses a sliding hinge to transform from a notebook into a tablet.
The Vaio Duo 11 weighs in a 2.86 pounds and measures 12.6 inches x 7.8 inches. It features an 11.6" IPS display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 and 10 point multitouch. Also, it has stereo speakers, a 2.4 megapixel webcam, full (backlit) qwerty keyboard, and pressure sensitive digitizer. Interestingly, the Duo 11 does not have a trackpad. Instead, it has a small touch sensitive trackball that resembles the pointing sticks on IBM/Lenovo PCs but on the Vaio Duo 11 the nub does not move. In that respect, it is more like the trackpad on some Blackberry Phones, but smaller. There are two mouse buttons below the spacebar, however. Other specifications include a magnesium alloy chassis.
Sony is calling the hinge the "Surf Slider" and the display slides forward to lay the display flat over the keyboard for tablet mode. As Ars Technica points out, when the computer is in notebook mode, there is a ribbon cable to the display that is exposed which is less than ideal.
Ports around the sides of the device include a VGA video output, card reader, and headphone jack on the left, and two USB 3.0 ports, one HDMI output, and a power button on the right. Reportedly, there is also an Ethernet jack.
Fortunately, Sony did not have to compromise as much on the internal specifications to achieve the 11" form factor. The Vaio Duo 11 includes an Intel Core i3 (Ivy Bridge) processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, and a 128 GB solid state drive.
Image credit: CNet. See their full review here.
The convertible ultrabook will come pre-loaded with Windows 8. It will also include Wi-Fi that can establish ad-hoc wireless connections with other devices by tapping the NFC radios together.
Sony's Vaio Duo 11 will go on sale October 26, 2012. Prices will start at $1,099.99, with more expensive models adding more storage or a faster processor. It is a bit pricey, but this PC is positioned as an ultraportable convertible tablet, and in that respect it is priced competitively with the competition.

Acer Details Iconia W510 Convertible Tablet With Windows 8
Subject: Mobile | October 9, 2012 - 04:09 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: windows 8, tablet, microsoft, Intel, iconia w510, atom, acer
Earlier this month, Acer announced its Ivy Bridge powered W700 tablet, and now it is time for its little brother to be announced: the Iconia W510 convertible tablet.
The Iconia W510 is a 10.1" tablet that will run Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8 operating system and any x86 applications. The tablet itself is 1.27 pounds and 0.35" thick. On the outside, the W510 features a LED backlit IPS display with resolution of 1366 x 768 that can accept touch input and is protected by Gorilla Glass 2. Also present are two speakers, as well as a 2MP front facing camera and 8MP rear camera. Both of the cameras are capable of recording 1080p video.
Ports on the Iconia W510 include a microSD card slot, micro HDMI video output, and a micro USB 2.0 port.
Internal specifications include an Intel Atom Z2760 Clover Trail processor (which we recently reviewed) with two cores running at 1.5 GHz, 2GB of RAM, and either a 32 GB or 64 GB solid state drive (SSD). This configuration should result in a decent system for web browsing and running Office 2013, among other everyday tasks. It will not be nearly as speedy as the Ivy Bridge-powered W700, but this tablet is also coming in at a much lower price point.
In addition to the tablet itself, Acer will be selling a keyboard dock. The $150 keyboard docks adds a physical keyboard, trackpad, and second battery. The dock also adds one additional (full size) USB 2.0 port.
Without the keyboard dock, Acer is claiming 9 hours of battery life. With the dock connected, Acer is further claiming that users will get up to 18 hours of battery life.
There will be at least three SKUs of the Acer Iconia W510 tablet. It will be available for purchase in the US and Canada on November 9th. The W510-1674 will feature a 32GB SSD and no dock at a MSRP of $499.99. The W51-1422, on the other hand, will have a 64GB SSD and a bundled keyboard dock for $749.99 (MSRP). Finally, corporate customers will be able to purchase a W510P SKU with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) and a two year warranty for $799.99.

Earlier this week, Intel announced that two of its Cedar Trail Atom-series processors would be powering several upcoming Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices. Intended to be used in devices for home and small business users, they will feature either the Intel Atom D2500 or D2550 processor. Centralized content vaults, so-called personal clouds (internet and LAN-accessible storage), and security systems are all possible uses of the Intel Atom CPU-powered NAS boxes.
Both 32nm chips have a 10W TDP, 1MB of L2 cache, and are clocked at 1.86GHz. The D2500 has two cores while the D2550 is a dual core part with HyperThreading for a total of four threads. Both processors have an integrated northbridge and a PowerVR SGX545 GPU. The D2500 has the integrated GPU clocked at 400MHz while the Atom D2550's SGX545 GPU is running at 640MHz.

The Intel-powered NAS boxes will have anywhere from two to eight hard drives and offer up a number of features. For example, the storage devices will be able to integrate the McAfee AV SDK to run virus scans on your media files on the NAS itself. And thanks to the GPU, platforms with storage and the Atom chips will be able to support up to two external displays. The example Intel provided is a security system where the D2500/D2550 can power a computer with lots of attached storage and up to output up to four HD video stream on up to two displays thanks to GPU acceleration.
The Thecus N5550 NAS using the Intel Atom processor.
NAS boxes from QNAP, Asustor, and Thecus will be available at launch, with additional devices from other manufacturers coming in the future. The Thecus device is available for purchase now for around $600 without hard drives pre-installed.
On the small business side of things, Intel has announced that Mostor and Dane-Elec have also jumped on board to provide optimized software for the hardware used in business environments.

Acer Iconia W700 Detailed With Pricing - Available October 26
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | October 5, 2012 - 05:31 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: windows 8, w700, tablet, ssd, Ivy Bridge, Intel, acer
First announced at Computex 2012, Acer is finally ready to share all the details (including pricing) on its upcoming Iconia W700 Windows 8 tablet.
For the uninitiated, the W700 is the top-end tablet in its Iconia W series. It will be based on an Intel Ivy Bridge Core i3 or Core i5 processor, 64GB or 128GB SSD, HD4000 graphics (intel processor graphics) and a battery that allegedly provides up to 8 hours of usage. That hardware is powering a 11.6" IPS display with 10-point multitouch and a resolution of 1920x1080. It further features a rear 5MP camera with autofocus and 1080p video recording and a front-facing webcam capable of recording 720p video.
The tablet also includes 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi as well as various sensors for map applications including a(n oddly named) "G-sensor," accelerometer, and an E-compass. [No mention of a GPS chip though, so it's unclear how useful the other map technology will be…]
External I/O includes three USB 3.0 ports, a Thunderbolt port, micro HDMI port, headphone output jack, and DC power jack.
Because of the Ivy Bridge CPU, the tablet has ventilation slots along the top edge of the tablet. It is less than half an inch thick and weighs in at 2.3 pounds.
Also relevant is that the Acer Iconia W700 will have an accessory dock that will hold the tablet in portrait mode at 70 ° for reading or 20 ° for an angled touchscreen. The dock can also hold the W700 tablet in portrait mode for reading ebooks and the like. A Bluetooth keyboard and micro-HDMI to VGA adapter are also available as bundled accessories.
Engadget takes a tour of the Acer ICONIA W700 Windows 8 tablet.
As far as new information goes, the W700 will be available on October 26 (Windows 8's release day). There will be several SKUs with different levels of hardware (ie. Core i3 vs Core i5). MSRPs of the W700 tablet will range from $799.99 to $999.99 depending on the particular hardware configuration. Further, if you are an Acer corporate customer, you will be able to get the W700 tablet with an extended two year warranty and Windows 8 Pro for $1,049.99. You can find read the full press release on the Acer website.
The prices do seem to be on the high end for a Windows 8 tablet, but ASUS' leaked Windows 8 tablet prices are not far off.
Why even Intel fans want a stronger showing from AMD

Tagged: amd, Intel, price cuts, stagnation, stats
While complaining that chip prices just don't fall like they used to with the advent of the new generation replacing them is a long standing past time of enthusiasts everywhere, we don't often research the historical data to prove or disprove our claims. The Tech Report were brave enough to do exactly that, ignoring the risk that the data might prove us all wrong and lead to the possibility of not having a leg to stand on when talking about the good old days. Vindication is ours, especially when talking about Intel processors and the blame seems to fall right on AMD's shoulders and the lack of competition they've offered, especially on the high end. While some of Intel's processors do drop in price a bit over the 50 week period that The Tech Report, the only ones with a noticeable percentage drop were the lower end Core i3's which compete directly with AMD's FX and A8/6 series processors. Check out the charts showing the difference between AMD's price drops and Intel's over the same time period here.
"We've crunched three years of historical pricing data and made some interesting discoveries about the current state of the x86 processor market. Come take a look."

The Ultrabook Revoltion ... is all in the mind of the professional fortune tellers
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | October 2, 2012 - 08:27 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: ultrabook, Intel, haswell, told you so, fail
We've not been kind to the idea of Ultrabooks here at PC Perspective, even some of the models we reviewed were rated very highly. The product is nice for those who want an ultra-light, ultra-thin computer with instant resume from sleep and a very long battery life and frankly, who wouldn't like that. The problem was in the implementation of the design, in order to meet the hardware requirements and the materials required to make a sturdy yet thin device the price soared well above the $600 price point that Intel originally reported an Ultrabook would sell for. In order to meet all the specifications from the original PR, the price was over $1000 which significantly shrunk the number of consumers willing to purchase an Ultrabook. Some manufacturers chose instead to compromise and not include all of the hardware originally listed, often the SSD but in other cases we saw lesser LCD panels used or a less sturdy chassis, which lowered the price but also made less consumers interested in purchasing an Ultrabook.
The Ultrabook dream has taken a big hit today as those in the market who predict sales have finally admitted they vastly overestimated the success of the Ultrabook. Most of these companies sales predictions, such as the iSuppli numbers referenced by The Register, have been sliced in half. Instead of admitting the numbers were inflated they referenced the growing tablet and smartphone market, neither of which devices can manage any task an Ultrabook could apart from the mobility. An Ultrabook was originally touted as a full computer, not a low powered mobile device.
From what DigiTimes heard Intel is convinced that Haswell will change all of that somehow, with the new processor making the Ultrabook much more attractive to customers. Of course they don't mention the pricing, which may fall a bit over the next year thanks to the dropping prices of SSDs but it is doubtful that Haswell will be cheaper than its predecessors. It is unknown at this point if Intel will continue to provide the cash incentives to manufacturers that they have over the past year but if they want any hope of manufacturers producing the next generation of Ultrabook. As it stands many major vendors are not interested in designing a new generation of Ultrabook as it is not a product that they made much profit on during the first generation. SemiAccurate also harbours the same doubts about next generation Ultrabooks they had for the first generation, with more numbers to back up their beliefs. The analysts still think that the next generation of Ultrabook will do well though ... for some strange reason.
"The basic problem for Ultrabooks at the moment is one of price, Stice explained. Intel's original vision for the platform was for a price point of around $600, but even with the $300m in support and subsidies that Chipzilla is pushing out to manufacturers, prices are much closer to a grand – and at that price, customers aren't biting."

The Wildcats ended the run on a three-point play by Ibekwe which translated into a 9-0 run to give Arizona a 58-49 lead at the 2:36 mark.? Arizona cruised from there down the stretch, sealing the win from the free throw line.
About the Broncos:
The Boise State Broncos enter Thursdayˇ?s game with a 6-3 overall record and riding a three-game winning streak.? The Broncos will face its third-consecutive Pac-10 foe in Arizona after beating Washington (88-66) and Washington State (71-64) in their last two contests.? As a team, Boise State shoots 37.1 percent from the field, 30.5 percent (61-200) from three point range and 68.8 percent (139-202) from the free throw line.? Individually for the Broncos, junior Tasha Harris leads the way with 17.6 points and 4.1 rebounds a game, and junior Jessica Thompson (reigning WAC Player of the Week) adds 15.6 points and 4.6 rebounds a game.? Head coach Gordy Bresnell is in his third season at the helm of the Bronco program.
Series Notes:
Wednesdayˇ?s game will be the first meeting in school history between Arizona and Boise State on the hardwood.
Home Sweet Home:
Although it seems as if Arizona is forever on the road, the Wildcats have enjoyed much success at home in McKale Center.? The Wildcats own a 2-1 record at home so far this season, while shooting a blistering 51.2 percent (83-162) from the field on their home court.? Arizona is also averaging 71 points a game at home.
vs. the WAC:
Although Arizona has never played Boise State, the Wildcats are 23-28 (.451) all-time versus schools that currently make up the Western Athletic Conference.? Under head coach Joan Bonvicini, Arizona is 7-5 since 1991 against WAC schools.
Arizona Head Coach Joan Bonvicini (17th season):
The winningest coach in Arizona women's basketball history, Joan Bonvicini has taken the Wildcat program from obscurity into the national limelight. In her 17 seasons at the helm, Bonvicini has guided the Wildcats to nine postseason appearances, including seven NCAA Tournament berths and a WNIT Championship.? Under Bonvicini's tutelage, the Wildcats have finished in the upper tier of the Pac-10 in nine of the last 11 years, and in 2003-04 won a share of the conference regular-season title for the first time in school history.
During this time, Arizona has been nationally ranked multiple times, including a best ever ranking of No. 7 in 1998.? Bonvicini's success is mirrored in her players' accolades. She has produced one All-American, five honorable mention All-America selections, a Pac-10 Player of the Year, three Pac-10 Freshmen of the Year, 22 All-Pac-10 honorees, 17 Pac-10 All-Freshman Team choices and 18 Academic All-Pac-10 selections. Bonvicini holds a 281-207 (.576) mark at Arizona and is 606-278 (.686) in 29 years as a head coach. On Feb. 8, 2007, Bonvicini became the 18th coach in NCAA Division I women's basketball history to reach the 600 win milestone with a 65-61 victory over Oregon State in McKale Center. She has a career record of 24-17 in NCAA Tournament play and has lost just two first-round games in 17 tourney appearances.
Just Win, Baby:
Arizona is currently riding a two-game win streak, the second such roll for the Wildcats so far this season.? Last season, the Wildcats had only one winning streak in the form of a three-game stretch.
Break .500:
With a win against the Broncos, the Wildcats have a chance to break over the .500 mark for the first time this season.? Arizona has not owned a winning record since standing at 5-4 last season on Dec. 5, 2006.
Slow Startsˇ? No More:
Through eight games, Arizona is getting outscored 273-242 by opponents in the first half.? However, the Wildcats have posted halftime leads in the last two games.? Arizona earned its second halftime lead of the season with a 34-29 advantage over NAU on Thursday night, and was up 32-25 against Long Beach State on Sunday. When leading at the half, Arizona is 3-0.
Get That Out of Here:
Going into Sundayˇ?s game, the Wildcats owned 15 blocks on the season through seven games.? Against the 49ers, Arizona collected 10 blocked shots in the game, exploding that season number up to 25.? The 10 blocks is the fourth-best total in school history, and the highest blocked shot tally since the team posted 11 against California on Feb. 7, 2004.? To put things in more perspective, Arizona ranked ninth in the Pac-10 in blocked shots before Sunday.? After Sunday, the Wildcats now rank fourth in the Pac-10 in that category.
Keep It Up:
After making a season-high eight three pointers on 30 three point attempts against Northern Arizona, the Wildcats eyed the basket from behind the arc a little better against Long Beach State.? Arizona hit 4-of-13 treys on Sunday for a season-high .308 mark from behind the arc.

Against Long Beach State, the Wildcats were 10-of-15 from the line (66.7 percent).
What do you know about Pressure?:
The Wildcats can put some pressure defense, and opponents have shown they canˇ?t handle it.? Through eight games, Arizona has forced 179 turnovers on the opposition, which equates to an average of 22.4 turnovers a game.? The Wildcats, on the other hand, have turned the ball over 158 times, and own a +2.6 turnover margin, the second-best mark in the Pac-10.? Arizona forced 23 turnovers on Long Beach State on Sunday, and an opponent season-high 25 turnovers on the Lumberjacks Thursday night.
Ball Thieves:
The Wildcats have shown they can scratch at opponents, posting 83 steals so far on the season for a 10.4 steals per game average.? Arizona has racked up 67 steals in its last six games (11.2 spg), including a season-high 14 against Portland, NC State and NAU.? Arizona ranks second in the Pac-10 in the steals department.
Paint Job:
So far, Arizona has been doing a solid job scoring in the paint.? Through eight games, the Wildcats have posted 296 points in the paint, which accounts for 54.0 percent of the teamˇ?s point production (548).? Arizona is averaging 37 points per game in the paint, and outscored Long Beach State 44-22 in that department on Sunday.
Lotta Action:
So far, a lot of Wildcats are getting a lot of action.? Through eight games, 10 Wildcats are averaging double figures in playing time, led by senior Ashley Whisonantˇ?s 36.6 minutes per game average.
Good Defense:
The Wildcatsˇ? defense has been clamping down the past few games, which have been a big part of the Ws in the victory column.? Arizonaˇ?s defense was key in its win over NAU on Thursday night.? The Wildcats held the Lumberjacks to opponent season low marks in shooting percentage (37.0), field goals (20), and points scored (54).? The Wildcats repeated the effort against Long Beach State, holding the 49ers to a new opponent season low mark of 33.9 percent shooting from the field, an opponent season-low tying field goals and a new opponent season-low 53 points scored.
Splinters Out:
Arizonaˇ?s bench has given the Wildcats a major boost on the court.? The UA bench has scored in double figures in each game so far, including a season-best 42 points against Portland, and had 22 bench points against NAU.? Arizonaˇ?s reserves have accounted for 182 points for a 22.8 ppg average, which is also 33.2 percent of the teamˇ?s total output.? Arizona, however, was outscored by Long Beach Stateˇ?s bench 23-14 on Sunday.
AW Leads the Way:
Senior guard Ashley Whisonant will be counted on to lead at the point this season, and she has already flourished in that position.? So far this season, Whisonant has played at an All-American level.? The Bowie, Md., native is averaging a team-high 15.0 points, 3.6 rebounds and 6.0 assists a game while snagging 2.0 steals a contest.? She is also averaging a team-high 36.6 minutes per contest.? Whisonant ranks fifth in the Pac-10 in points scored, first in assists per game, seventh in steals per game, and first in minutes per game.? Against Long Beach State, Whisonant finished with 10 opints and six assists in 38 minutes of action.
All-Time Scorer:?
Ashley Whisonant scored her 1,000th career point in the final game of the season last year, and look for her to climb up the Arizona all-time point leader list this season.? With 76 points in the first three games, Whisonant moved past Kim Conway (1,060 points, 1990-94) for the No. 13 spot on the all-time scoring list.? Now standing at 1,123 career points (101 games), Whisonant needs 21 points to catch Yolanda Turner (1984-87) for the No. 12 position.
Ms. 100:
Senior Ashley Whisonant has been a constant in the Arizona lineup ever since her freshman season, and she is one pace to be one of Arizonaˇ?s all-time leaders in games played.? She played in her 100th career game against NAU (Dec. 6), and is on pace to finish her career with 123 games played, a figure that will rank No. 3 all-time in school history.
Looking For a Dime:
With each dime Ashley Whisonant dishes out, she is moving to the top of the line on Arizonaˇ?s all-time career assists list.? With 313 career assists, Whisonant needs 21 more to claim the No. 10 spot in school history.? With a 6.0 assists per game average, Whisonant is on pace to finish with 174 assists this season, the fourth-best mark in school history.
Ms. Wildcat:
Freshman Tasha Dickey, simply put, was born to be a Wildcat.? The daughter of two former Arizona athletes, Dickey has shown her tremendous athletic ability on the court.? In the first eight games, Dickey is averaging 7.3 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals a game.? Dickey always seems to be doing the little things right on the court.? Against Long Beach State, Dickey finished with seven points, two rebounds and two steals in 21 minutes off the bench.? With the Arizona down 10-8 to Long Beach State, Dickey came in the game and gave the Wildcats an immediate spark, putting in a layup and hitting a three on consecutive possessions to put Arizona up 13-10.
Narbonne ˇ?s Finest:
Freshman Ify Ibekwe comes from a family of distinguished athletes and she is trying to prove that she is the best yet.? The 6-foot-1 Carson, Calif., native from Narbonne HS has been a spark on the court in the first eight games, averaging 11.5 points on 62.9 percent shooting (39-62), the second-best mark in the Pac-10, and a team-high 7.4 rebounds a game in just 18.8 minutes a game.? In her last five games, Ibekwe is averaging a team-high 14.2 points and 9.8 rebounds a game, numbers highlighted by performances against Portland and Middle Tennessee at home, and a homecoming game at Long Beach State.? Against Portland, Ibekwe straight went off against the Pilots.? She finished with a team-high 21 points on 8-of-10 shooting to go with 13 rebounds for her first career double-double.?

In her first career start against NAU, Ibekwe finished with seven points, 13 rebounds, three assists and three steals in 22 minutes of action.? Against the 49ers, Ibekwe finished with a game-high 15 points, 11 rebounds, and a career-high four blocked shots before a hometown crowd.?
In the Books:
Ify Ibekweˇ?s performance against Middle Tennessee was one for the history books, as her 22 points came off of a scorching 10-of-11 shooting mark from the field.? Her .909 shooting percentage is the second-best single game performance in school history, matching Shawn Coderˇ?s 10-of-11 mark against Cal State Northridge on Dec. 13, 1991.
Wonˇ?t you be my Neabor?:
Sophomore Rheya Neabors has been stepping up for the Wildcats on the outside perimeter.? Against NAU, the 6-foot-1 Pomona, Calif., native had a career-high 15 points to go with eight rebounds, two assists, and a block and a steal in 35 minutes of action.? She put up a career-best 10 three pointers, hitting a career-high five three point field goals.? Against Long Beach State, Neabors had nine points and five rebounds in a career-high 37 minutes of actions.? On the season, she is averaging 8.4 points and 4.7 rebounds a game.
Stepping Up her Game:
Sophomore Marie McGee is playing a more vital role in the Arizona lineup this season, as the Las Cruces, N.M., native earned her first career start against NAU on Thursday.? She responded by finishing with six points and two steals, hitting a career-best two three pointers.? In her second-career start against Long Beach State, McGee had six points, three rebounds and a career-high three steals in a career-high 24 minutes of action.? On the season, McGee is averaging 4.8 points and 2.1 rebounds a game in 17.0 minutes of action per contest.
B For Block:
Although she likes to go by ˇ?Queen Bˇ±, junior Beatrice Bofia might want to keep on accumulating more ˇ?Bsˇ± on the court ?C as in blocked shots.? Against NAU, the 6-foot-7 center posted the second block of her career, and finished with a season-high eight points on a perfect 4-for-4 mark from the field.? Against Long Beach State, Bofia had a career-best two blocked shots in the game to go with two points and four rebounds.? On the season, Bofia is averaging 4.0 points and 2.6 rebounds a game.
Amina the Bull:
Junior forward Amina Njonkou is a force down low in the paint, and her strength allows her to bull over defenders.? Against NAU, the 6-foot-1 Cameroon native finished with 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting from the field to go with six rebounds and a career-best five steals.? Against Long Beach State, she had her second double-double of the season with 12 points and 10 rebounds.? On the season, Njonkou is posting 10.3 points and 5.4 rebounds a game.
Cats Picked To Finish Eighth in the Pac-10:
The University of Arizona womenˇ?s basketball team was selected to finish eighth in the Pac-10 Conference in a preseason vote by the conferenceˇ?s head coaches.? The Wildcats garnered 31 points in the poll, as seven-time defending Pac-10 champion Stanford was chosen as the favorite to win this yearˇ?s Pac-10 title.
The Cardinal received eight of 10 first-place votes and 79 points, as Arizona State received a first-place nod and tallied 71 points to place second. California was tabbed to finish third with a first-place vote and 68 points, followed by fourth-place USC with 56 points and fifth-place UCLA with 44 points. Washington grabbed 41 points to place sixth, followed by Oregon (34), as Arizona (31), Oregon State (16) and Washington State (10) rounded out the poll.
Tough Schedule:
Year in and year out, Arizona never runs away from a challenge, but rather takes on the best teams in the nation head on during the nonconference schedule before playing in the always daunting Pac-10 Conference.
The Wildcats will play 29 games during 2007-08, 13 games in McKale Center and 16 on the road, with 14 games scheduled against teams that competed in the NCAA Tournament last year.
The UA will take on 10 teams that competed in the 2007 NCAA Tournament, with non-conference matchups against Middle Tennessee State, Pittsburgh, Boise State, New Mexico, NC State, and UW-Green Bay, along with Pac-10 series against California, Stanford, Washington and Arizona State.
Rank This:
Arizonaˇ?s tough schedule is apparent when you take a look at this yearˇ?s preseason rankings.? In the WBCA/USA Today/ESPN and AP Preseason poll, five of the top 25 teams in the nation will play the Wildcats during the regular season.? Arizona will face No. 9 Stanford, No. 12 Arizona State, No. 14 California, No. 21 Pittsburgh and No. 25 NC State.? Additionally, six other Arizona opponents (Middle Tennessee, USC, New Mexico, UCLA, Boise State and Wisconsin-Green Bay) each received votes in the poll.
Up Next:
Arizona will hit the road again for a game at New Mexico on Saturday, Dec. 15 at 7 p.m.

Jacques Torres Catches Fish for DBGB
Mr. Chocolate's houseboat isn't just for big pimpin'.
It looks like Jacques Torres is using his houseboat for more than just big pimpin' — tipster Darren Atkins of Dmanburger tells us that last night's special at DBGB was striped black bass that Mr. Chocolate caught off the coast of New Jersey. It's the third time the restaurant has used Torres as a supplier. Atkins informs: "The special was roasted sea bass served with laughing bird shrimp and bouillabaisse finished with arugula and fennel salad with mussels, roasted potatoes, and saffron."

After the events of WWE "Royal Rumble," CM Punk has not been seen on television or even heard from. Rumors circulated that he had quit the company and that WWE had even granted him an early release from his contract. Now, fans are one day away from "Monday Night Raw" in Chicago, and WrestleZone reported on March 2, 2014, that CM Punk is going to be there.
Dave Meltzer is reporting that he has a source in WWE that is a top star in the company. He says that this star said it is "100% certain" that CM Punk will appear on "Raw" on Monday, March 3, 2014.
SEE: Former WWE star Kamala claims racism, sexual abuse from Vince McMahon
This is something that still remains to be seen, and it will be proven in about 24 hours, but it does seem more and more like he will be back. A few things are leading fans and experts to believe that CM Punk is on his way back.
After Punk "left" the company, the official Twitter account of WWE stop following him. Now, the Twitter for the new WWE Network started following Punk.
Also, with Batista's heel turn this past Friday, the main event of "WrestleMania XXX" doesn't make much sense since both he and Randy Orton are heels. Not to mention that the fans won't really care about it at all anyway.
If CM Punk does return, it is expected that either he or Daniel Bryan will be moved up into the title match, and the other will have a match with Triple H.

Best Restaurants in the Entertainment District
Posted: February 28, 2014
Everyone loves to go out for a meal before a show, whether that's a movie at the Scotiabank Theatre, stand-up at Yuk Yuk's or a play on nearby King Street. The Entertainment District has no shortage of restaurants of various ethnicities, but the best choices aren't necessarily the most popular ones. There are numerous quality spots that you shouldn't pass by.
Toronto's favourite (and busiest) Thai place since it opened in 2011. Chef Nuit Regular specializes in authentic Thai dishes, has a full vegan dinner menu and the walls display an always-changing collection of colourful paintings by local artists. It's extremely popular with neighbourhood office workers out for lunch, so be sure to get there by noon.
The district's best bet for Italian cooking. Tutti Matti's regional Tuscan cuisine includes lots of meat-based dishes, and all food, including the pasta, is made in-house. The walls are adorned with travel photos of Montalcino, Italy, adding a distinctively European flavour to Adelaide.
If you're in the mood for something quicker, this award-winning burrito place gives you many options – chicken, steak, veggie soy, haddock, halibut or shrimp – plus a variety of toppings. Its extra-late hours on Friday and Saturday nights make it a convenient hangout spot for night owls, clubbers and pub-crawlers.
Town Crier Pub/Halfway Beer House
You'll find the area's best patio at this neighbourhood pub. The impressive drink selection has plenty of European beers and ciders, and the menu mixes meaty entrees with the usual bar food. Popular with the after-work crowd and friends who want a drink before a show, the place also contains two levels of indoor seating and servers always eager to recommend something new. Show early – the patio fills up fast on sunny days.
The neighbourhood's top soup kitchen makes a decent selection of soups and wraps, all under $10, attracting both cash-strapped students and local office workers who want a quick lunch. There's a backyard patio for the warmer months and an indoor wooden communal table.
An Adelaide Street staple since the late 1970s, the Corned Beef House makes sandwiches eight centimetres high. With its friendly staff, relaxed vibe and walls full of pics of pop-culture icons (from Charlie Chaplin to John Lennon), it's perfect for a casual lunch.
This is just a sample of the variety of places in the neighbourhood – and if you keep on exploring, you'll find Japanese, Middle Eastern and Caribbean options too. Whatever you're hungry for, you'll find it in the Entertainment District.
Back to the Entertainment District guide.

In addition to Cor core ingredients of patented nano-silver with silica, Cor's Silver Wrinkle Serum contains the following:
Palmitoyl Pentapeptide is a unique molecule that has been shown to imitate the skin's natural rejuvenation process, stimulating renewal and natural exfoliation of the skin's surface without the use of harsh ingredients. PP regenerates the dermal layer by developing new collagen, elastin and glycosamainoglycans. PP not only appears to renew the skin's dermis layer, but also it has been shown to make it noticeably thicker which adds to improved appearance of the skin. A "thicker" skin has the added benefits of protecting itself against the harmful elements of the environment.
Acetyl Hexapeptide is an extreme amino peptide that relaxes muscle contractions and reduces the frequency of contraction. It has been shown to produce Botox® type results without paralyzing the muscle, in the form of an everyday cream. After a few minutes of application, the skin feels more taut and "lifted".
Net Weight: 1 oz./30 ml
Ingredients: Purified Water, Butylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltuarate/VP Copolymer, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Carboner, Alcohol, Triethanolamine, Titanium Dioxide and Mica, Silver Citrate, Silica, Soluble Collagen, Xantham Gum, Punica Granatum Extract, Acetyl Hexapeptide, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide, Copper Tripeptide, Phenoxyethanol, Citrus Perfume Oil.

September 05, 2013
Gray is everywhere these days - home magazines, TV design shows and stylish movie sets for romantic comedies. But have you considered taupe, a derivative that Style at Home calls gray's "friendlier cousin?" Taupe goes beautifully with warm wood tones like the ones in Anderson's Eagle Lodge floor collection. And that's just the start of its versatile place in home design.
Taupe is one of several colors that are considered new neutrals. They have a touch of color added to a gray base, from silvery sage to delicate lilac. They can be warm or cool depending on the particular shade chosen for a room design. And they have taken home decorators beyond bland beige and flat gray to give wall colors more depth than their simpler neutral relatives ever did.
The new neutrals also allow homeowners to create new combinations with brighter accent hues and finishes that make the most of these colors.
Finishing touches
Whether you're choosing a vibrant warm color or a cool one that evokes peace and relaxation, the finish on the color can influence the personality of the final product on walls, ceilings and trims. Just as interior designers have stepped up their use of oyster hues, variations of gray and more colorful neutrals, a new range of finishes have been developed to give surfaces a unique sheen.
While most people know about the basic levels of gloss - non-shiny flat, eggshell and glossy paints - they should also ask at their local paint shop about those that fall between. These include a matte finish that's a midway point between flat and eggshell and contains porcelain dust for easier cleaning. Likewise, pearly finishes fall between eggshell and semi-gloss, and stand up well in kitchens and other areas that retain moisture.
For casual spaces
For a casual look in family or children's rooms, there are versions of greens or blues – touted as the reigning favorite colors by designers - that are toned down from pure primary colors, according to Debbie Zimmer, the Paint Quality Institute's paint and color expert.
"There are the greens that gravitate toward blue, which just happens to be projected as the other popular paint color this year," she said. "Bluish-greens like teal, turquoise, aquamarine and cyan are hot designer choices."
Zimmer suggested that homeowners also consider the greens and blues that appear in great variety within nature. These shades are versatile enough to act as both stepped-up neutrals or toned-down accent shades.

Pre-Market Primer: Carl Icahn Is Bullish on Apple; Eurozone Emerges From Recession
Vincent Trivett
Housing indicators and Macy's earnings are on tap for today.
Stocks are mixed this morning after key European countries announced that they have returned to growth.
France and Germany, the two biggest engines of the eurozone, returned to growth from contraction in the second quarter, according to preliminary flash estimates. France recorded 0.3% year-over-year growth, beating expectations of a 0.1% decline. In the first three months of the year, the economy shrank 0.4% from 2012. On a quarterly basis, France grew 0.5%. After shrinking 0.2% in the first three months of 2013, Germany grew 0.5% in the June quarter over the year before, also beating estimates.
Taken as a whole, the eurozone still shrank 0.7% from the year before, but grew 0.3% on the quarter. This better-than-expected news is raising hope that the the 18-month Euro recession is behind us. Spain still declined 1.7% year-over-year, and Italy shrank 2%, but Major European indices rallied, with Germany's
(INDEXDB:DAX) rising 0.12% and France's
(INDEXEURO:PX1) up 0.33%.
US stock index futures are slightly lower this morning.
(INDEXDJX:.DJI) futures were off 0.12% to 15,393 while futures contracts on the
(INDEXSP:.INX) slipped 0.12% to 1,688.70.
(INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC) futures rose 0.04% to 3,138.25.
This morning, the US reported that producer prices neither increased nor decreased over the month of July. Economists expected prices to increase by 0.3%. The price of goods at the factory gates rose just 0.1%, excluding food and energy.
The US gets some more economic data later in the morning. At 10:00 a.m., the National Association of Homebuilders' Housing Market Index is expected to print at 56 for August, one point below July's level.
(NYSE:M) will report second quarter profits after the bell, kicking off a week of consumer retail earnings reports. Analysts expect the company to earn $0.79 per share, up $0.12 from the year earlier. Revenue is likely to rise to $628 billion from $612 billion.
(NASDAQ:AAPL) shares continued to rise 1.3% in the pre-market after gaining 4.75% yesterday. Activist investor Carl Icahn revealed yesterday that he owns $1.5 billion in Apple shares. He said that even without earnings growth, the company is worth $685 per share since it can borrow so cheaply to repurchase shares.

The 49ers took control of the second half against the Panthers in a 23-10 win on Sunday afternoon. Here are the grades for the defense and special teams:
Defensive Line: A
Strong defensive stands on the goal line and owning the line of scrimmage is what helped the defense win this game. I thought this was an impressive game from Ray McDonald in particular as he was double teamed several times to free up space for linebackers. The Panthers running game was also non-existent.
Linebackers: A
The pass rush was great this game in comparison to last week where were coverage sacks. I thought Aldon Smith had good pressure despite not tackling the quarterback. He gets credit for the first interception which was caught by Patrick Willis. NaVorro Bowman was all over the place and continued to befuddle the Panthers offense with his tackling, coverage and even occasional blitzing. The back-to-back sacks sequence by Bowman and Ahmad Brooks killed any hope of a comeback by Carolina.
Secondary: A-
They gave up yardage to Steve Smith in particular, but they were great throughout the game in bending and not breaking. Perrish Cox was initially picked on, but Tarell Brown and Tramaine Brock both played well and safety help came when needed. It was a perfect throw by Cam Newton to Smith, which was the only touchdown and big play allowed by this unit until garbage time.
Special Teams: A
The only negative thing on special teams was when the coverage unit gave up a 24-yard punt return by Ted Ginn Jr. to setup the touchdown pass to Steve Smith. Otherwise, this was a great day for special teams as a whole. Phil Dawson was perfect as he made all three field goal attempts. All kickoffs resulted in touchbacks while on the lighter side, Andy Lee couldn't execute a throw off a fake punt.
Coaching: A+
There were only a few mistakes in the first half, but it was a valiant performance by Vic Fangio and his staff on solving the Panthers offense. Two goal line stands and a goose egg in the second half signifies how valuable the defense has been all season. On what could have been a scoring drive that took eight minutes off the clock, Fangio blitzed and it worked where Newton was sacked two times in a row. Even late in the game, the defense wasn't soft until it was truly garbage time. The 49ers will always be in every game with the defense continuing to shine.

Keg Liquors has a somewhat misleading store name. And the size of this store, 10,000 square feet, is not clear from the street. Inventory is crammed into the space. And most of it is wine.
The good prices and wide selection draw customers from close and far. Commuters stop here on their way to or from work. For the wines lining the shelves are not selected by a corporate Rite Aid wine buyer. Instead Russ Hamm, the Store Manager, reviews wine ratings in wine periodicals Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and The Wine Advocate, for ideas and tries to respond to the tastes of his customers. He then trolls the local suppliers for availability and pricing options. Yes, Hamm takes advantage of the fact that he works for a large corporation. He will use this leverage to assist in negotiation on price, if he sees a particular wine he feels his customers would enjoy.
Every Thursday, Keg Liquors runs an advertisement listing specials in the Denver Post. If you select a case of wines that are not on sale, management offers a 10% discount. If you find a sale on your favorite wine across town, you can bring in the advertisement and Keg Liquors will match their price.
Keg Liquors will soon have a website, coming in March or April at KegLiquors.com. The site will post weekly specials. Customers will be able to sign up for updates on their favorites, say Whiskey or Italian wines. In cooperation with Sunflower Market next door, Hamm plans to offer wine and cheese tastings this summer. Watch for these in Sunflower Market's monthly activity calendar, weekly circular and Keg Liquor's Thursday advertisement in the Denver Post .
The staff is helpful and often able to answer your wine questions. They may not be aficionados with in-depth knowledge about the varietals used in Bordeaux or Valpolicella, for example, but the staff does get wine training over time. The longer an employee is there, the more they can help.
If you are an aficionado, there may be great deals at Keg Liquors. If you have an area where you avidly collect wines, Keg Liquors deserves a peak.
I asked Hamm for suggestions on wines that knocked his socks off - preferably one red and white - priced around $15 or less. His suggestions:
Root:1 - Cabernet Sauvignon, Chile 750ml $12.99
Carmel Road – Chardonnay, California 750ml $17
Check it out and tell them you heard about them through examiner.com.

Box Score
SEATTLE – After a long layoff, Washington showed some early rust, but then cruised to a 67-50 victory over Hawai'i in the first round of the WNIT. The Dawgs (18-13) got 24 points from Kelsey Plum and 22 from Jazmine Davis to advance past the Rainbow Wahine (17-14).
Washington will now advance to face Oregon (16-15) on Monday night in Eugene for the second round matchup.
The Huskies struggled from the floor to start the game, but still had the lead by creating turnovers and holding Hawai'i to poor shooting on the other end. UW jumped to a 9-2 lead, but the Rainbow Wahine came back to tie it at 10-10.
From the there, Washington regained a lead and would not trail again. UW led 34-25 at the half as Plum led the Dawgs with 11 points, while Aminah Williams chipped in eight points and nine rebounds.
After the break, Washington extended the lead to double-digits as Davis got it going. After beginning the game 0-7, the Husky junior scored 14 points after the half, including 3-3 from 3-point range. Plum also kept up the scoring, converting three 3-point plays in the second half.
The high-scoring guard combo was aided by Williams who finished with a double-double, 10 points, 11 rebounds and three steals. Washington shot just 33 percent for the game, but held Hawai'i to just 26 percent.
Talia Walton struggled with her shot, but chipped in nine rebounds and four blocks, just one shy of tying her career high.
Hawai'i finished with 21 turnovers, tying the most for a Husky opponent this season. Davis finished with five steals, which was a career high.
There were plenty of milestones reached on Friday night led by Mercedes Wetmore who played in her 123rd game in purple in gold. The Husky senior will now tie the all-time UW record for games played (124 by Giuliana Mendiola) on Monday in Eugene. Davis also moved into fifth place on the Husky all-time scoring list moving past Leteia Hughley. Davis now has 1,710 points for her career, while Plum is at 649 for the season, just 12 shy of the single-season Husky record also by Mendiola.
Washington will now have a quick turnaround as they travel to Eugene Sunday for the game Monday night at Matthew Knight Arena. The Dawgs are 1-1 against Oregon this season, losing the first matchup in Eugene and then evening the score at Alaska Airlines Arena in late February. The winner of the Huskies and Ducks will move on to face the winner of Montana and San Diego in the third round of the WNIT.

The Best Beach Bodies of All Time: From Marilyn Monroe to Stephanie Seymour
The phrase "bikini body" may not have been popularized until the early sixties, but by then, the reign of the modern beach babe was already well under way. Marilyn Monroe had been flashing her career-making curves in a two-piece swimsuit on the sand for nearly a decade, her healthy hourglass shape subconsciously setting the cultural bar for true surf-and-sun sensuality. She joins a legacy of actresses and models who, through a combination of hard work and good genes, have cemented their place in history as present-day Venuses. They're the aspirational figures we have in mind as we coax ourselves to the gym, spring for a Lisa Marie Fernandez micro-bikini, or preen for a far-flung summer excursion. From the athletic, mile-long limbs of Veruschka and Karlie Kloss, to the buxom shapes of Ursula Andress and Kate Upton, and sculptural frames of Naomi Campbell and Adriana Lima, here is a look at the best bodies to ever set foot on the beach.

At 101 years young, the great-great-grandmother from Utah has found a place in the Guinness World Records book as the Oldest Female to Paraglide Tandem, Today reports.
Hardison had something to prove to her son, Allen, 75, who recently took up paragliding, according to the news show.
"I didn't want him to do something that I couldn't do," she tells Today.
Hardison's instructor, who took the ride with her, called the woman "hard-core." We call her "amazing."

The Arizona Wildcat men's tennis team secured their second win of the weekend in a close match against the San Francisco Dons. The day began with doubles play where the Cats clinched two matches and the point. In singles action, sophomore Mario Urquidi clinched the fourth point and the win for the Wildcats.
The match marked the third meeting of the two schools with Arizona (3-0, 0-0 Pac-12) holding the 3-0 advantage over the Dons (1-0, 0-0 WCC).
"These guys were tough," said head coach Tad Berkowtiz. "We beat Sacramento State 4-3 on Friday and they beat them 7-0 yesterday. It was a good win for the guys."
Carlos Bermudez teamed up with Urquidi on court three of doubles play. The South Western duo took an early lead over Jonathon Knowlman and Mark DeCastro and never gave it up. They clinched the match, 8-2.
On court two, Andre Vidaller and Sebastian Ionescu forced Jacob Hartwig and Germain Bahri to play a game of catch up. The Wildcat duo began the match at 1-0 but dropped the next two games. With the match at 2-1 in favor of San Francisco the Wildcats came back to take the lead, 3-2. The Dons answered by tying the match at three all when the Wildcats again took the lead. Hartwig and Bahri tied the match at four before Vidaller and Ionescu pulled away to win, 8-4 and clinch the doubles point for Arizona.
On court one, Giacomo Miccini and Sumeet Shinde remained locked in an uphill battle with Thai Tu and William Schumacher. The Wildcat duo was down 6-3 when they rallied to win three consecutive games and tie the match at six all. Miccini and Shinde dropped the next game giving San Francisco the 7-6 advantage but came back to tie the math at 7-7 and force the tiebreaker. The Wildcat duo dropped the tiebreaker and the match to San Francisco, 8-7 (4).
With the Wildcats holding the 1-0 advantage, the match entered singles play. Shinde finished first on court four, where he defeated DeCastro. The Pune, India native came from behind in the first set and won four straight games to clinch the set, 6-4. In the second set, Shinde held DeCastro to two wins to clinch the set, 6-2 as well as Arizona's second point of the day.
On court one, Miccini suffered his first singles loss of the season as he was edged by Tu. The Recanati, Italy native saw his only lead of the day at 2-1 in the first set. Tu won the next two games before Miccini clinched his last win of the set. Miccini dropped the set, 6-3. In the second set, Tu took a 4-0 lead over the Arizona sophomore answered back with four wins, tying the set. The next two games ended in favor of San Francisco and the Dons earned their first point of the day.
Third to finish was Vidaller on court two. The sophomore from Santos, Brazil was edged by Schumacher in a back and forth match. In the first set, Vidaller never saw a lead as he fell, 6-3. The second set began with Schumacher in the lead, 3-0 when Vidaller won three consecutive games to tie the set. After two more games the set was tied at 4 all before Schumacher won two straight to clinch the match and the second point for the Dons.
With the match tied at two points to both teams, eyes turned to court three where Bermudez entered a third set with Bahri. The Tucson local won the first set, 6-3 but dropped a close second set, 7-5. In the third set, Bermudez took the lead at 3-2 and refused to relinquish it. He won the set, 6-3 and gave the Wildcats the one point advantage.
Next to finish was Urquidi on court six where he played Richard Burcalem. The El Paso, Texas native fell 7-6 (4) in the first set and came back to win the second set, 6-4. With the match riding on courts five and six, Urquidi entered a third set. Urquidi took and early 4-0 lead before Burcalem answered with two wins. The Arizona sophomore won the next two games to clinch the set and the match for Arizona.
With the match clinched in favor of Arizona, Kieren Thompson entered a third set against Bernardo Saraiva. The Brisbane, Australia native won the first set 6-4 before Saraiva came back to win the final sets, 6-3, 6-1.
Arizona improves to 3-0 while San Francisco falls to 1-1.

The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber
by Ernest Hemingway
The Gun Bearers, the Native Boys, and Others
Character Analysis
There are a ton of tiny characters who populate the pages of this story, but to be honest, they don't serve much of a purpose beyond service. They are there to help the hunt, cook the food, and provide Wilson the occasional opportunity to flex his Swahili-speaking muscles. This is colonial Kenya, after all, and we can't imagine that the affluent Westerners saw these people as much more than their own personal servants.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Killer thriller plays with the mind
By Tim Pompey 04/17/2014
Directed by Mike Flanagan
Starring: Karen Gillan, Brenton Thwaites, Katee Sackhoff, Rory Cochrane
Rated R for terror, violence, some disturbing images and brief language
1 hr. and 45 min.
It's spring. The weather is turning beautiful. The days are getting longer. It really puts you in the mood for a film that's . . . scary? Yup. While the premiere of a horror film in April may seem out of place, that's what we have here, and a pretty good one to boot.
Not so much surprising as effective in what it's trying to do. Challenging as well, with many moving parts that don't always fit together. But Oculus is more about mood and tempo. Like a good piece of music, it creates layers, starts slowly and builds to a startling crescendo.
Director Mike Flanagan chooses to use parallel stories — one from the past, one in the present — to get his point across. Two young siblings, older sister Kaylie (Karen Gillan) and younger brother Tim (Brenton Thwaites), watch in horror as their mother, Marie (Katee Sackhoff), is chained up and shot to death by their father, Alan (Rory Cochrane). Eventually, the conflict comes to a head when the father himself is shot and killed by Tim. He is subsequently committed to a mental institution and presumed to be guilty of murder.
Or is he? Kaylie is convinced that Tim is not responsible. The real culprit is the nasty spirit inside the antique mirror in their father's office. To prove her point, Kaylie spends the next 10 years keeping tabs on the mirror and waiting for her brother to be released. Her plan is to gather with her brother in their old house and try to kill this thing off once and for all. How? Well, this is the part that gets a bit dicey. Something involving lights, cameras, timers and one hell of a big anchor.
There's nothing here that you haven't seen in other ghost stories. What works best is the way that Flanagan pieces the story together and keeps you guessing. Owing, I suppose, to his extensive work as an editor in film and television, he cuts between past and present skillfully and uses an ever-increasing pace between them to draw you in.
He also creates just enough confusion to leave you wondering about whether you're in the past or present, whether it's the sister or the brother who is mentally unbalanced, and whether this mirror spirit thingy actually exists. Maybe it does. Or maybe, as in any decent horror film worth its screams, maybe it's just a figment of their imagination.
There are some plot points that are kind of murky, and the tale of the mirror itself gets explained in a breathless rush. I assume the point of the film is not so much the back story about the mirror but its real intent. It doesn't matter where it came from. All we care about is that it's there and it's scary.
Of course, this all might be next week's joke, except that screenwriters Flanagan and Jeff Howard have managed to do a decent job with the script, and the cast itself is strong enough to pull you in. Scottish cutie Gillan, Brit hunk Thwaites and Battlestar Galactica favorite Sackhoff are convincing enough. Credit also an eerie soundtrack by The Newton Brothers. And something else. There's an earnest tug here, especially between the younger siblings — sister Annalise Basso and brother Garret Ryan, who are brimming with desperation, terror and the bonding that comes when siblings are under fire from both demented parents and a glittery-eyed ghost.
The ending drives home the real horror: that whatever is in this mirror goes on, until someone else finds it and the terror comes back. And isn't that always the premise of good horror? Where will evil surface next? Basement? Closet? Attic? Well. Ask yourself. Do you really want to know? My answer? Heck yeah.

College » Subsistence » Teaching » Business 101
Business 101 Module - sustainable businesses for subsistence marketplaces
We offer a module required for all (approximately 600) first semester undergraduate business students on developing sustainable businesses for subsistence marketplaces as a part of a Business 101 course on professional responsibility.
Business 101 consists of three modules organized around responsibility for oneself, to one's organization, and to the larger society. Business 101 addresses responsibility as it relates to "me" as a business professional, "us" as a profession, and "larger than us" as engaging in business activity in the global world of the 21st century. Module 3 emphasizes this "larger than us" element and responsibility to the larger society while reinforcing the first two elements. This is accomplished by:
. Developing an understanding of marketplace activity in the radically different context, i.e. of subsistence where much of humanity resides and survives
. Envisioning the role of business in creating economically, ecologically, and socially sustainable products for subsistence marketplaces
Classes and assignments are organized to achieve these objectives.
To develop an understanding of a radically different context, a number of individual assignments include analyzing interviews of individuals living in poverty in India, participating in a poverty simulation and writing impressions about poverty in the US, and analyzing videos of poverty in Africa.
To envision the role of business in such contexts, group assignments include developing a sustainable product solution that addresses the needs of individuals and communities living at or near subsistence anywhere around the world, developing a brief business plan for a startup company based on the product solution, including a report and an in-class presentation, and preparing a poster of the business for a poster session to a larger audience."
Later versions of the moduel involve developing a Professional Responsibility Stakeholder Engagement Plan for introducing a new product in an emerging market. Students work with concepts that have come out of the yearlong course on Sustainable Product and Market Development for Subsistence Marketplaces.

Cast: Gina (I), T.T. Boy, Sapphire, Buck Adams, Allysin Chaynes, Others
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Performer credits would be a welcome touch in forthcoming volumes of this strong series.
Given the liberal amount of artistic license taken in most vids that purport to feature 18-year-old girls (so she's 29, we'll put 'er in pigtails), we're thrilled to see that the girls here appear to actually be 18. T.T. Boy power-fucks black and Asian cuties (the decidedly Caucasian Allysin Chaynes/Buck Adams segment being the sole deviation from the formula) admirably, occasionally with questionable forays into a gonzo style interview ("Where'd you get that oily skin?") before the banging.
Highlights include Boy showing his safer-sex side with Gina ("Damn, baby; shit") in a garage, and a shy, adorable half-Thai girl who shows off her hairy cooch through transparent white panties before a hot cowgirl ride atop our silver-tounged hero.

Men's Track & Field Finishes Second at Chicagoland Championships
Feb. 9, 2013
NAPERVILLE, Ill. - The UIC men's track & field team posted an all-around team effort Saturday, finishing second in the 19-team field with 72 total points. Highlighting the Flames' performance were Richmond Richter and Seyi Ogunleye, who claimed the respective top two spots in the triple jump competition.
In all, UIC collected 11 top-10 finishes. Richter was the lone individual medalist, leaping a meet-best 14.35 meters in the triple jump. Ogunleye finished just behind at 13.90 meters, good for second-place. Justen Garth finished second in the 60-meter dash, crossing the finishing line in 6.99 seconds. Angelos Karkalis claimed second-place honors in the 800-meter run (1:55.77). Ogunleye also carded a top-10 finish in the long jump, leaping 6.36 meters for a ninth-place tally.
"I was pleased with our new addition to the team at mid-year, Richmond Richter," said head coach Jim Knoedel. "He came up with a win in the triple jump in his first competition as a Flame. It will put him in the top-five on the Horizon League list. We had a good collective effort today."
Notable third-place finishers included Martin Hunter in the 200-meter dash (22.67 seconds), Roy Mwale in the 400-meter dash (50.53 seconds) and Matt Marzahl in the high jump (1.96 meters). Garth also finished fourth behind Hunter in the 200-meter dash (22.84).
The anticipated 4x400 meter relay team finished third in the field, crossing the finishing line in 3:23.68. Meanwhile, the distance medley team took fifth (10:20.54).
Both the men's and women's teams will head to Milwaukee for the Panther Tune-Up next Friday (Feb. 15). The meet will serve as the final event prior to the Horizon League Indoor Championships in Youngstown, Ohio (Feb. 23-24).

Are all of the programs that can be run on Ubuntu able to run on Linux Mint? I'm thinking of switching (Ubuntu to Mint), but there are a lot of programs (command line mostly) that I'd like to be able to use on Mint.
I believe Mint is based on Ubuntu.

If you haven't seen the movie Neighbors yet with Seth Rogen, Rose Byrne, Zac Efron, Dave Franco, and more, then you need to get out to the theater because it was downright hilarious and packed with weed-inspired humor. One takeaway from the movie we're going to share with you today is how the Delta Psi fraternity takes the time-tested art of hotboxing to the next level. Here's how to create the House-Box:
Spoiler Alert: Minor details divulged below. This won't ruin the movie for you, but if you want to see it and be totally surprised, don't read ahead!
Step 1: Make sure everyone knows your house is where it is GOING DOWN
Step 2: Make sure everyone is properly attired and glowing with green
Step 3: Bake a batch of Blue Dream cookies
Step 4: Pack a bunch of weed into oil drums and strategically place the oil drums full of ganja around the house. Then set fire!
Step 5: Observe your glory
Step 6: ...but don't eat too many 'shrooms
Step 7: And when you talk to the cops, beware that they're probably screwing with you
Step 8: Finally, never, ever forget to invite your neighbors!
