Sorry in advance if this question is a bit newbi-ish. I downloaded
Microsoft Connection Manager and added multiple
.rdg files for different servers I need to access. I can browse to only a few of them, but most of them I get the following errors:
- Unable to decrypt password
- Cannot establish a connection
I have checked the passwords and credentials and they appear to be correct (checked against a collegues' settings). I can
ping the servers and I get get a reply from them but cannot connect to them through Connection Manager.
Also, for two of the servers I can navigate to them in the browser (but cannot connect to them in Connection Manager)
As I know very little about servers and networks, I would like to know how I can investigate this further and find out (and fix) why some of them are connecting and some aren't - especially as I can ping them but not connect to them? The main thing that puzzles me is why I can browse to them in the browser for some of the servers, or ping them when they cannot be connected to in Connection Manager.
I have seen a few solutions to similar problems on the net that recommend clearing the tcp ip stack; but I'm not sure if this applies to the above. Could this be related to permissions?
What things can I do to investigate/fix this problem?

So Here's the question. I was playing around with the lathe the other day and chucked up an old HD 80 piston. Drilled a hole in the crown and measured its thickness. Roughly 3/8" inch. I was trying to see how light you can make one of these pistons, so I turned off 1/16" from the crown, which cut down 40gms of weight.
So, does anyone have any opinions as to whether this would dangerously weaken one of these things to the point of failure in use? By the way, the repop pistons from Ted are of similar construction, which is what I would do the actual surgery on to use in my new 88" stroker. I'm going to turn down the skirts some to shorten them to clear the flywheels for sure, so while I've got the lathe going, I'm wondering the feasibility in cutting the crown as well.
Thanks in advance,

New Stock Coverage: Constellation Brands Has Nothing to Wine About
Justin Sharon
Wall Street ratings agencies set the tone for today's stock market.
Raging Bull
, released 33 years ago, remains the most recent prized possession on Robert De Niro's mantelpiece thanks to events in Hollywood last night, and Wall Street's own animal spirits are suddenly starting to look similarly old.
S&P 500 Index
(^GSPC) snapped a seven-week win streak amid concerns over the looming sequestration. (For some strange reason the public feels that
President Obama, golfing in Florida
, and
Congress, off on vacation
, could work a bit harder to solve our current crisis.) Our Commander in Chief said avoiding Friday's coming calamity should be a "
no brainer
," but his attempts to
map the human brain
promptly sent navigation giant
(GRMN) sinking 11%.
Elsewhere a legendary
German business executive in his 90th year took his own life
and a hiring freeze from

, sent
(AAPL) tumbling another 2%.
No top-tier economic data due today, but earnings announcements are expected out of
Caesars Entertainment

(PSO), and
URS Corporation
CalAmp Corp.
(CAMP): Northland Securities starts the stock at Outperform. Its price objective is $14.25.
Constellation Brands
(NYSE:STZ): The world's largest winemaker, whose shares have surged of late, is up again before the bell after being launched with a Buy at SunTrust. Its target price is $60.
(ETN): Credit Suisse covers the industrial equipment outfit at Outperform.
NV Energy
(NVE): NVE is a new Hold with Wunderlich, whose target is $20. The rising risk of additional regulation, allied to a steep valuation after recent share price strength, keeps the broker from being more constructive.
TRI Pointe Homes
(TPH): FBR Capital covers the California-based maker of single-family homes at an Outperform, assigning a price objective of $22. Exposure to an improving macroeconomic environment and improved demographic trends are each seen as catalysts.

Engagement rings designed with stones other than
diamonds are becoming more popular as Royalty, TV characters, and
celebrities such as Kate Middleton, Carrie Bradshaw, and Jessica Simpson
have opted for gemstones.
There are other advantages to gemstone rings as well.
Most stones are less costly than diamonds, so you can get a larger ring
for the same price. When taking into consideration the many different
gemstones available, the possibilities for building a ring unique to you
and your personality are endless. We especially like this jeweler for
gemstone engagement rings. Each ring is customized, which means you can
choose from 20 gemstones and eight metals when ordering your favorite

Happy Sunday and May the fourth be with you! That's right! Today is May 4, also known as "Star Wars Day". This unofficial holiday based on a pun ("May the fourth" sounding so similar to "may the force") was started by "Star Wars" fans to celebrate the epic franchise created by George Lucas, although this play on words was recorded as long ago as 1979.
So, how can you celebrate this geek holiday? Going beyond the obvious idea of themed food and a massive movie marathon, there are a couple ways to celebrate out and around Orlando.
Walt Disney World's Hollywood Studios:
If you would like an out-of-this-world way to begin your "Star Wars Day," head over to Disney's Hollywood Studios. At the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant. Beginning today, guests can brunch with "Star Wars" favorites like Boba Fett and Darth Vadar at the "Star Wars Dine-In Galactic Breakfast."
If dinner is more your speed, Mickey can be found during dinnertime at the Hollywood & Vine (also at Disney's Hollywood Studios) hosting "Jedi Mickey's Star Wars Dine at Hollywood and Vine."
Both of these offerings will begin today and run through the end of "Disney's Star Wars Weekends."
Audubon Park:
On May 4, Audubon Park will host their first Sunday Sip & Stroll from noon to 3pm. In honor of "Star Wars Day," the Whompa Chompa food truck will be in attendance, along with the Blue Bird Bake Shop (who will be making "Star Wars"-inspired mini-cupcakes), along with other food vendors throughout the district. Additionally there will be a "Star Wars" scavenger hunt. If you find all of the items you will be entered to win a free William Sonoma "Star Wars" lunch box and a pair of tickets to the next Sip & Stroll. Tickets to Sunday's Sip & Stroll are $15 in advanced or $20 the day of.

I always have go hunting for download links ,i can't load any of these games in my browser due to my 3g connection.

Thanks for the link. Not sure what happened to the JayIsGames page in two weeks since posting. I've updated the text accordingly.

Comment on Until Dawn article:
Well, the Coen brothers, who are A-list directors, don't seem to consider him a C-list actor, and they should know.
Comment on Blues and Bullets article:
This looks like a strange game. But i love the atmosphere.
Comment on Until Dawn article:
Peter Stormare is a C-list actor.
I disliked him from the moment i first saw him in prisonbreak. TIll later in his career in the movies he played in. Personaly i have a problem taking him seriously. Bad acting. It looks like a parody of himselve.
Comment on Until Dawn article:
Peter Stormare is not a C-list actor.
Comment on Hidden: On the Trail of the Ancients article:
The developers of this game are from Argentina. I'm sure they know their own region.
Comment on Hidden: On the Trail of the Ancients article:
All I can say is that your experience with the real Patagonia is totally different from mine. I won't argue that there may be forested regions in eastern Chile and Argentina, But that is not what is defined as Patagonia. Check any climate map, and you will see that it's exactly what I say it is, a desert.
Which, by the way, does not equate with "deserted" which is the way you chose to interpret my comment.
Comment on Hidden: On the Trail of the Ancients article:
The above comment about the Patagonia being a deserted region is absolutely wrong. The Patagonia takes a huge part of the Argentinean country and It has beautiful mountains, mirror-like lakes, forrests, lot´s of weathers and a huge variety of wild life. Disney visited the region before shooting his movie Bamby and it´s generally agreed that he we inspired by that landscape (since it´s very similar). The area is very populated and has been like that since the early times (the indians named by the conquistadores "patagones" inhabited the land). Cabins as the one portraited in this article are very common. Most of that area recieved german inmigrants (that´s why a lot of germans emigrate there after WW2), and the constructions in wood and stone may look somwhat like those in Germany.
Comment on Hidden: On the Trail of the Ancients article:
Thanks for the warning.
I think I'll wait until part 2 comes out before I pick up part 1. I'm not a fan of episodic games.
Comment on Hidden: On the Trail of the Ancients article:
I hate to say it, but you lost me at "an expedition into the South American forests of Patagonia". Patagonia is an arid coastal region along the south-western edge of South America. Patagonia is, by normal description, a desert.
This may be a great game. But if the premise, and the description were to start out saying, "an expedition into the urban Chicago environment with a view to the Pacific Ocean," I would be equally skeptical.
Is this a "must suspend belief in reality" type game? Or is this a game that expects you to suspend reality, because nothing the game is based on is real?
Comment on Cradle article:
I've been following this game's development for a fair while, and so the shortcomings described in this review are rather disappointing. The world stills looks and sounds great, though. I'll probably buy it, but with reduced expectations.
Comment on STASIS article:
i just finished this beautifully disturbing game, but about the review (i do not wanna sound rude) this paragraph, here "That said, I'm a bit of a completist and the diaries don't contain any information crucial to making progress – that's reserved for a relatively small number of emails and computer terminals – so if you get bored you can skim or skip them" is totally misleading!, the diaries hold much clues that are sometimes crucial for solving puzzles, and at others could give some hint about what you could do with the surroundings.
Comment on STASIS article:
isometric arcadian goodness
lots of object/room descriptions to peruse
evocative soundtrack
puzzles that don't frustrate
unskippable cut-scenes/dialogues
voice acting is only intermittently good
short duration
abrupt ending
some puzzles where a little too easy
4/5 (developer deserves special accolade though, considering the small size of the production)

Integrating a Culture of Academic and Research Engagement
Purpose of HSI Program
The HSI Program provides grants to assist HSIs to expand educational opportunities for, and improve the academic attainment of, Hispanic students. HSI Program grants also enable HSIs to expand and enhance the academic offerings, program quality, and institutional stability of colleges and universities that are educating the majority of Hispanic college students and help large numbers of Hispanic students and other low-income individuals complete postsecondary degrees.
Texas A&M University-Kingsville
Integrating a Culture of Academic and Research Engagement—I-CARE
Texas A&M University – Kingsville (TAMUK) is a state supported institution serving an area of rural South Texas bordering Mexico. The University serves an area approximately the size of West Virginia, ranging from San Antonio to the Mexican border. The student body is split almost equally between men (53%) and women (47%). 72% of students are undergraduates. Ethnically, the campus reflects the demographics of the area, with 62% of the students being Hispanic, 27% (non-Hispanic), and 5 % African American. TAMUK is dedicated to serving an ethnically and culturally diverse population and is committed to its mission of teaching, research, and service in South Texas for the advancement of knowledge and of regional development.
The I-CARE project design is based on the premise that students are our greatest assets. They come to us with preliminary skill sets and capabilities. Through the I-CARE program, students will be able to understand their limitations and develop a new vision of who they are and what they can achieve. The project is composed of three major Goals:
Goal 1 addresses the need to provide career development and career planning which will provide a foundation for students as they move through their academic career and their educational goals at the university. Goal 2 will increase the number of high-need students who enroll in and successfully complete courses that provide an undergraduate research component. These courses have been designed to expose students to scholarly and experiential undergraduate research thereby increasing the number of students who are academically prepared for graduate studies. Goal 3 will provide an undergraduate research commons in the university library that will provide a dedicated space for students to participate in undergraduate research. These goals and proposed activities are in direct alignment with the university mission and vision and the absolute priority for the Title V competition.
Competitive Preference Priority 1 will address:
- Faculty professional development to support innovative learning methods including undergraduate research and experiential learning

|XC rolls into West Regionals
MOSCOW, Idaho – One Vandal has hopes of a repeat, another one wants to break through and both Idaho men's and women's cross country teams want to prove themselves among the West region on Friday.
The Vandal men and women will be in Seattle, Wash., on Friday afternoon for the NCAA West Region Cross Country Championships, where national bids and regional bragging rights will be on the line.
For junior Hannah Kiser of Wenatchee, Wash., a 2011 NCAA Championships qualifier and U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association All-West Region honoree, a repeat trip to the national meet and the associated history is the primary goal. No Vandal woman has ever qualified for the NCAA cross country meet in consecutive seasons.
"My plan is to go out with the top runners, and I know I'm more fit than last year, so the plan will be to try to stick with them," Kiser said. "Over the final 1k, it's about listening to Coach Phipps and knowing where the other top individuals are to try to make sure I finish ahead of them."
For senior Barry Britt of Hampton, New Brunswick, a 2010 USTFCCCA All-West Region selection who has come up just short of a national bid the last two seasons, it's his last shot to become Idaho's first men's cross country NCAA qualifier since 1939.
"I think I've done all the work I have to do to be a national qualifier as far as mileage and workouts and the stuff outside of races, and now I just have to put it all together," Britt said. "I'm going need that perfect race to get out of the West, because it's just so deep and there are a ton of talented guys."
Kiser took 18th at last year's NCAA West Regional, while Britt was 30th on the men's side. Britt took 23rd as a sophomore in 2010 to earn the first men's All-Region honor since 2002. If either Vandal wants to extend the season into mid-November, at least a top-25 finish will be necessary.
It's just about two individuals, though. Kiser's and Britt's performances will be key for two teams looking to climb in the West Region.
Both teams started the season ranked in the West Region Top 15 by the USTFCCCA, but dropped out early in the season and haven't been back since, despite Idaho's women claiming the Western Athletic Conference title two weeks ago at Ruston, La.
"The WAC Championships were never the finish line – that meet was always one goal along the way," junior Alycia Butterworth said. "My goal for the team is to place in the top 15, because we haven't really been ranked. I think we're good enough to be there and we can show that we should have been there this year."
For any individual or team in the West Region, a high finish is something worth praise. In the most recent USTFCCCA National Coaches' Poll, five of the nation's top 27 men's teams hail from the West, including No. 3 Stanford and No. 9 Portland.
The women's field in the West is even deeper. Four of the nation's top seven teams, No. 3 Oregon, No. 4 Arizona, No. 5 Stanford and No. 7 Washington, run in the West Region, which makes Friday's meet a good NCAA Championships preview and also means that national bids will be tough to come by.
The women's 6000-meter race starts at Noon (PT), while the men's 10,000-meter race follows at 1:15 p.m. (PT). Both races will be held at Seattle's Jefferson Park Golf Course. The top five teams in each region qualify for the NCAA Championships, as do the top four individuals not affiliated with an auto-qualifying team.

More E-Ten Glofiish V900 Pics& Specs
Now, that first pictures of E-Ten Glofiish V900 TV Communicator has been accidentally posted on the Net by the vendor itself, it did not take long for the better pics and even some specs to leak too.
The details about the tech specs for E-Ten V900 are still scarce, but Russian site E-ten Club claims that V900 will run on a new 667 MHz Samsung chip and will have 128 MB.

English folk-punk singer Billy Bragg surprised Little Rock, Arkansas with a stop at the White Water Tavern on Thursday, August 21, 2014. Bragg showed up with Arkansas folk singer Joe Purdy, and the two performed for a little over an hour to a packed house full of folks who found out about the show just hours before it happened, mainly via social media.
Billy Bragg was in Little Rock this week because he's been tracing the route of the Rock Island Railroad, from Rock Island, Illinois to the Arkansas capital. The trip was made as a part of a documentary for Aperture magazine celebrating the life and photography of Robert Frank. The set was heavy on train songs, including "Rock Island Line" and "Midnight Special." It also included some of Bragg's staples like "Sexuality," "There is Power in a Union" and "New England." A few times during the set, Bragg stepped back and let Purdy show his strength as a folk singer-songwriter, and the Arkansan delivered quite well.
Bragg talked a lot to the appreciative crowd, mainly about some of the places he's played in the past week. Two nights before this show, the singer played an impromptu benefit for Ferguson, Missouri, where he collected canned food for the folks in the town. He also mentioned stopping at a teacher's union strike and playing for the people striking. Bragg and Purdy have shown up everywhere from prisons to sandwich shops, playing for whoever was there to hear.
The White Water Tavern pulled off a big one, getting Billy Bragg in on such short notice. This will be a show that Little Rock will be talking about for years.

ZOTAC Injects Palm-Sized ZBOX nano XS with Double Dose of Performance
Subject: Systems | October 1, 2014 - 05:29 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: zotac, SFF, nano xs, MI521, Core i3 4030U
ZOTAC is releasing the new MI521 nano XS model using the Haswell Core i3 4030U with HD4400 graphics with support for mSATA SSDs and two DDR3 slots capable of handling up to 16GB of RAM. The two models listed below are the same, in one case you do not have to supply your own RAM and SSD, the other comes with only the processor inside. The branding is skewed more towards the multimedia capabilities but these could also function quite well for office work, with support for 4K workspaces and perhaps a little entertainment once you've polished off that Word doc.
HONG KONG – Oct. 1, 2014 – ZOTAC International, a global innovator and manufacturer of graphics cards and mini-PCs, today injects the palm-sized ZBOX nano XS chassis with a double dose of performance from a 4th Generation Intel Core i3 processor. The new ZOTAC ZBOX MI521 nano XS series delivers a dual-core punch and expansive connectivity in an extra small size for an excellent mini-PC experience.
"ZOTAC is a pioneer when it comes to packing as much performance as possible into the smallest form factor possible. Our latest ZBOX MI521 nano XS series takes that same formula and gives it more performance and connectivity to create a mini-PC that's perfect for office productivity or multimedia tasks," said Tony Wong, CEO, ZOTAC International.
New to the ZBOX MI521 nano XS series is a very efficient and capable Intel Core i3 4030U dual-core processor with Intel HD Graphics 4400. The new processor enables dual display capabilities on the ZBOX MI521 nano XS series with standard HDMI and mini-DisplayPort outputs for maximum work productivity.
A suite of Intel technologies including Clear Video HD, InTru 3D and Quick Sync Video transforms the ZBOX MI521 nano XS series into the perfect HTPC for high quality HD video playback, including CPU-intensive Hi10P formats. Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11ac Wi-Fi technologies round out the ZBOX MI521 nano XS series features to provide compatibility with popular input devices and high-speed network connectivity to wireless home networks.
Intel Loves Exponential Trends: Shrinking Mini-PCs
Subject: General Tech, Cases and Cooling, Systems, Shows and Expos | September 12, 2014 - 06:20 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: idf, idf 2014, nuc, Intel, SFF, small form factor
A few years ago, Intel introduced the NUC line of small form factor PCs. At this year's IDF, they have announced plans to make even smaller, and cheaper, specifications that are intended for OEMs to install Windows, Linux, Android, and Chrome OS on. This initiative is not yet named, but will consist of mostly soldered components, leaving basically just the wireless adapters user-replaceable, rather than the more user-serviceable NUC.
Image Credit: Liliputing
Being the owner of Moore's Law, they just couldn't help but fit it to some type of exponential curve. While it is with respect to generation, not time, Intel expects the new, currently unnamed form factor to halve both the volume (size) and bill of material (BOM) cost of the NUC. They then said that another generation after ("Future SFF") will halve the BOM cost again, to a quarter of the NUC.
What do our readers think? Would you be willing to give up socketed components for smaller and cheaper devices in this category or does this just become indistinguishable from mobile devices (which we already know can be cheap and packed into small spaces)?
Falcon Northwest Offering X99 Based PCs In Three Form Factors
Subject: Systems | September 1, 2014 - 05:06 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: X99, system builder, SFF, Intel, Haswell-E, falcon northwest
Haswell-E is official and components supporting the new X99 platform are flooding the market (or at least your news feed!). Intel's latest chip is not just for the DIY crowd, however. Boutique system builders have started announcing their refreshed lineups. First up is Falcon Northwest which has refreshed its product lineups to feature Haswell-E in small form factor (Micro ATX), mid-tower, and full tower systems.
Falcon Northwest has updated the Mach V, Talon, and FragBox PCs to include Haswell-E, updated X99 chipset motherboards, up to 64GB of DDR4 memory, and the latest connectivity options such as at least six USB 3.0 ports and up to 10 SATA III 6Gbps ports.
Users will be able to configure the refreshed models with any of Intel's launch CPUs: the six core i7 5820K, hexacore i7 5930K, and flagship 8-core i7 5960X (our review). All three processor options will come with a liquid cooler and optional overclock.

Per the press blast, Falcon Northwest President Kelt Reeves had the following to say about Intel's new enthusiast desktop platform:
"In our 23 years of building high-end PCs, I can't ever remember seeing this much new tech hitting at the same time." said Kelt Reeves, president of Falcon Northwest. "Our fall desktop lineup of Intel X99-based systems with 8-core CPUs, 10 SATA ports, 12 USB 3.0 ports, and 64 gigs of DDR4 memory make the systems we built even a year ago look like antiques. Intel X99 is that big of a leap forward."
The new systems can be configured with various storage, graphics card, and case/aesthetical options much like their predecessors. The newer platform which supports more processor power, 40 PCI-E 3.0 lanes, USB 3.0, Thunderbolt 2, and DDR4 (which uses less power and offers up more bandwidth versus DDR3) is the notable factor here.
The small form factor (and LAN party friendly) FragBox PC starts at $2,313. The mid-tower Talon and full tower Mach V start at $2,330 and $3,021 respectively. You can find the updated custom built boxes on the Falcon Northwest website.
While I would not go as far as Mr. Reeves, I do think Haswell-E noticeably improves upon Ivy Bridge-E and it brings hardware to bear that will be most welcomed by professionals in workstations and servers that can take advantage of the power. For enthusiasts and gamers, it also represents a much waited-for trickle down of technology from the Xeon lineup of an Intel chip with 8 physical cores to consumers at a price that is relatively affordable (heh).
Are you excited for Haswell-E? Will you be upgrading or carrying on with your current setup? Here's hoping Broadwell-E (or whatever the next generation ends up being called, of course) brings the 8 core monster to the $400 space so my i7 860 can finally rest and graceful Linux test box retirement before I end up killing it from too much time overclocked and over-volted ;).
A Haswell powered ZBox
Subject: Systems | August 28, 2014 - 05:46 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: SFF, zotac, zbox, zbox ID92. haswell
The Zotac Zbox ID92 is not quite as small as the PI320 pico at 7.4" x 7.4" x 2" (188 x 188 x 51 mm) nor as inexpensive as it ships for $486 sans memory, storage and OS. However with a 2.9GHz Core i5-4570T is significantly more powerful and the HD4600 GPU will allow you to enjoy some light gaming and to enjoy 4K content with an appropriate display. With both SATA and mSATA the storage subsystem is more agile and also upgradeable as are the two SO-DIMM slots. The Tech Report quite liked this device for media but suggest those intending to spend more time gaming spend an extra $100 on the Zbox EN760 with its GTX860M.
"In recent months, we've reviewed two Gigabyte mini-PCs with Haswell inside. In light of those experiences, we figured we'd take a look at one of Zotac's newest Zbox systems: a 7.4" x 7.4" x 2" machine with a 35W Haswell processor, room for dual storage devices, and generous connectivity."

Gigabyte's New Essence Chassis Enables Fanless Mini PCs
Subject: Cases and Cooling | August 17, 2014 - 05:18 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: SFF, mini ITX, gigabyte, fanless, essence, Bay Trail
Gigabyte recently rolled out a new small form factor case called the Essence for DIY PCs. The chassis measures 300mm x 234mm x 74mm (~11.8" x 9.2" x 2.9"), comes bundled with a 120W PSU, and will happily hold a Mini ITX motherboard and laptop-sized hard drive. Large mesh vents on the side panels allow for plenty of airflow and ventilation to run a fanless system.
The Essence case uses a SECC frame along with ABS plastic. A rectangular base, which hosts the front IO ports, holds the machine vertically and at a slight backwards tilt. The DC power components are mounted to the bottom of the motherboard tray and are driven by a 120W external power supply (Similar to the type of setup the Xbox 360 uses). The red removable motherboard tray (accessible via the right side panel) allows you to screw in a Mini ITX motherboard and a single 2.5" SSD or HDD up to 9.5mm thick.
The front IO includes two USB 2.0 ports, one headphone output, and one microphone jack. Aesthetically speaking, the Essence looks nice with its red faceplate, silver power button, and black mesh side panels with embossed shapes. It is small enough that it could easily sit next to a monitor and act as a low power desktop or next to the TV as a home theater PC. So long as you do not mind it not fitting into an AV rack/stack, this case could be used along with a cheap SSD and fanless Bay Trail or Kabini-based system for a silent media box or streaming client for Steam games.
The Gigabyte Essence is now available in Japan for 13,800 Yen or approximately $125 USD. It comes with a one year warranty. There is no word yet on availability in other countries at this time, however.
Shuttle's DS81 comes bareboned but offers a lot of choice
Subject: Systems | July 21, 2014 - 07:53 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: shuttle, htpc, SFF, DS81, barebones
The Shuttle DS81 ships with an H81 motherboard, an external 90 W power adapter and the 190 x 165 x 43mm case of course. That means you have your choice of installed Linux or Windows and any combination of 65W or lower Haswell processor, memory and storage device to add to the ~$200 enclosure. For outputs it provides HDMI and two DisplayPorts which means it can theoretically support 4K video, a pair of both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports and two LAN ports as WiFi is optional. While it has only headphone out for audio, the onboard codec is capable of outputting digital sound through DP or HDMI which would be the preference of many users. Check out MadShrimps full review here.
"The Slim PC chassis from been reincarnated in the shape of the DS81 which supports the latest Haswell processors with a TDP up to 65W and supports 4K video output thanks to the DirectX 11.1 IGP. The DS81 chassis features a 1.3-liter slim design with a thickness of only 43mm, so it is suitable for many commercial applications; a VESA mount is also included as a bundle in order to mount the device behind the monitor."

SolidRun's New SFF HummingBoard PC Is A Modular Raspberry Pi Clone With Upgradeable ARM Processor
Subject: General Tech | July 16, 2014 - 06:21 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: solidrun, SFF, Raspberry Pi, iot, i.mx6, Freescale, Cortex A9
SolidRun recently launched a new small form factor PC called the HummingBoard. The new kit is an open source hardware platform that can run a number of open source operating systems. It mimics the physical form factor of the popular Raspberry Pi and as a result is compatible with much of its accessories including cases and add-on boards.
The HummingBoard is comprised of two main pieces; the carrier board which hosts all of the I/O ports and pin-outs and the removable microSOM (Silicon on Module) which is a smaller circuit board housing the processor and system memory.
SolidRun currently offers two reference versions of the carrier board, a base design and a higher-end model with beefier I/O. The HummingBoard Carrier is an open source design and the company allows hardware hackers and product developers to use their own custom carrier boards based on the reference design. Each carrier board has a special connector that the Micro SOM plugs into.
A microSOM (System on a Module) includes the CPU, GPU, RAM, power management, networking, and I/O connectivity hardware.
SolidRun currently offers up three microSOMs for use with the HummingBoard. The microSOMs use Freescale i.MX6 series SoCs (PDF), offer up to 1GB of RAM, and host the power management and networking hardware. Depending on the microSOM chosen, users can get a single or dual core CPU paired with a GPU that is at least OpenGL ES 2.0 compatible (the highest end model supports OpenGL ES 2.0 Quad Shader) and video encode/decode hardware units. The HummingBoard is upgrade-able and may support a microSOM with a quad core CPU in the future (a quad core microSOM already exists but is not currently supported by the HummingBoard).
Users can purchase the HummingBoard as a combo (carrier board+processor module) or in individual pieces. Specifically, SolidRun sells the HummingBoard i1, i2, and i2eX. Both the i1 and i2 use the base carrier board while the i2ex uses the pro version. The i1 comes with a single core i.MX6 CPU, GC880 GPU, and 512MB of system memory. The i2 ups the amount of RAM to 1GB and CPU core count by using the Freescale i.MX6 Dual Lite. Finally, the HummingBoad i2eX features a faster clocked dual core CPU (i.MX6 Dual), GC2000 GPU, 1GB of RAM, and significantly more I/O thanks to the higher-end carrier board and processing capabilities.
At a minimum, users can expect HDMI video out, 10/100 Ethernet, two powered USB 2.0 ports, a microSD card slot, a coaxial S/PDIF audio output, PWM mono audio, a 2-lane MIPI CSI 2.0 camera interface, and GPIO header. On the high end (HummingBoard Carrier Pro/HummingBoard i2eX/custom configs), the HummingBoard supports Gigabit Ethernet (limited to 470Mbps by the SoC), PCI-E 2.0, mSATA II, two additional USB 2.0 ports (via internal header), stereo audio output, microphone input, an IR receiver, and a Real-Time Clock (RTC) with battery backup.
SolidRun is aiming the HummingBoard platform at Internet-of-Things, home automation, and other embedded device developers. I believe that it will also appeal to hobbyists and Linux software developers.
The HummingBoard is rather expandable and is nearly a drop-in alternative to the Raspberry Pi. The open source nature (though, like the Raspberry Pi's BCM2835, the SoC is not fully open source) is nice, and the modular/upgradeable design is sure to appeal to hardware enthusiasts. The HummingBoard starts at $45 and tops out at $99 for the highest end i2eX. It is more expensive than the Raspberry Pi, which is the platform it is most likely to be pitted against, but it features faster hardware (especially the CPU and its ISA: ARMv7 versus ARMv6) and is priced competively with devices like the BeagleBone Black and SolidRun's own CuBox lineup.
The small form factor (and "single board PC") market has really ramped up the last few years and it is exciting to watch it all unfold. Stay tuned to PC Perspective for more SFF PC coverage!
Have a ball with the Zotac Sphere OI520
Subject: Systems | June 12, 2014 - 11:13 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: zotac, SFF, htpc, Sphere OI520
Inside this unique casing you will find a Core i5 4200U, up to 16GB of DDR3 and room for an mSATA and a 2.5" drive; but not a GPU. The onboard HD4400 can output to HDMI or DisplayPort and in addition to the connections you can see below there is indeed 802.11ac and Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. The power supply is external so there is only one rather quiet fan to be found inside the ball, perfect for HTPC usage as you won't be very impressed by its ability to game. Check out Bjorn3D's full review and the reason they expect this will be available for well under $1000.
"There was a time when a computer in most cases consisted of a big beige box that you certainly did not want to show off or which took up a lot of space on your desk. Those days are gone and today we have a lot more variety both how computer looks and how big they are. Zotac is a company that for quite some time have been pumping out smaller mini-PC's under their ZBox brand and today we are taking a look at their new round ZBox Sphere OI520."

Corsair's H75, you pay for the miniaturization
Subject: Cases and Cooling | April 28, 2014 - 07:47 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: water cooling, SFF, Intel, H75, corsair, amd
Corsair's H75 has a smaller footprint than previous models, the radiator of 120 x 152 x 25mm should fit inside even smaller cases, allowing you to reduce the noise produced in the smaller case. As well they have dropped support for LGA775, the change in mounting hardware should make it easier to install on both AMD and Intel systems. While Morry was quite pleased with the performance of this cooler considering it's size; [H]ard|OCP had a slightly different take. When they looked at the cooler in terms of price for performance they felt that there are better values on the market but do still recommend it for those who need a small, powerful cooler and are willing to shop around to find it on special.
"Corsair has been in the liquid CPU cooling game for over 10 years now. As sealed system liquid CPU coolers have become the norm among hardware enthusiasts, the competition has gotten stiff to say the least. Another thing that has changed over the years is that many DIYers are going to smaller cases for their systems; the H75 looks to address this."

But accordingly they also ask this: "If nothing evil existed before, whence did the serpent, which you call Satan, learn the characteristics of Evil?" We say that Satan understood as evil man's disobedience to God, on account of which he induced man to this. It is like when one would be another's enemy, and having concealed his enmity, he would secretly wish to harm him; yet he would not know the nature of the harm, and having come he would wander around in search of means; then, having found the time when someone among the physicians would give an order to his adversary not to touch this thing, and not to taste such a type of food, by which he could arrive to health; and having heard of it, soon pretending under the guise of friendship, he would blame the healer; and, labelling the useful things as harmful to him, he would persuade him, and he would give directions contrary to the orders of the physician, and by this do him harm; and, if he did not recognize beforehand the nature of the harm, rather having found the cure in the physician's order, it was harmful. Thus it is thought also of Satan, his envying of the first-created man, and his not knowing the nature of the evil-doing; because, though there was no evil before, from which it was possible to recognize its nature, nevertheless having learned from God's commandment -- which was given to man to keep him from partaking of some deadly part of the plant -- he offered to man that which, though it was not a useless bit of food for man, and not by nature a deadly plant, nevertheless on this very count man was prohibited from partaking of this -- rather disobedience was the basis of death for man, as for a criminal who would disobey the dictum of an authority that would restrain him.

Arturo Sandoval: I Left This Space for You
I Left This Space For You
Arturo Sandoval (flugelhorn, trumpet)
I Remember Clifford (GRP Records GRD-9668)
Arturo Sandoval (flugelhorn, trumpet), Kenny Kirkland (piano), Charnett Moffett (bass).
Composed by Arturo Sandoval.
Recorded: New York, 1992
Rating: 96/100 (learn more)
After bucking bureaucrats in Castro's Cuba his entire adult life to play Yankee imperialist jazz, 40-year-old trumpeter Arturo Sandoval in 1990 defected, only to encounter equally obstinate U.S. bureaucrats who blocked his naturalization because he'd belonged to Cuba's Communist Party. (Duh!) Somehow, amidst the turmoil and uncertainty before his American citizenship was finally granted in 1998, Sandoval mustered enough concentration for a dazzling tribute album to fellow trumpeter Clifford Brown, concluding with this heartfelt ballad featuring his open flugelhorn and overdubbed Harmon-muted trumpet. Sidemen Kirkland and Moffett are as unconditionally supportive as the INS ought to have been. Gorgeous.

All Reviews for Old Shawnee Pizza
March 27, 2009
Old small town bar with train theme in downtown waterloo. This is definitely a local place, but the folks are friendly and the food is cheap and homestyle good. Definitely a mans place to eat,,,,and they even serve breakfast. Great fried appetizers and the drinks are strong and cheap. The atmosphere is not fancy, it is definitely low budget, but given the area and the prices, it could be a fun place to go. Some evenings feature live music..(which is good actually) and kareoke which is really funny. Be prepared to feel welcomed, but unknown by all the regulars.

In this skeletal form, rupture skin and flesh
Wake these eyes of bone to life
In this skeletal form, rupture skin and flesh
The ashes of the dead arise
Past an enormity of stifling redundancy
We suck breath into this dry carcass
With joints that crack and veins that run gravel
To set in motion, exultant
Skeleton, churning rivers of smoke
Skies laughing with blood
Islands separated by a fraction of surface
Conductors through holy submission and humble duty
Shed an iron shroud and inventing fire
Vibrant ghoul, birthing thunder and lunacy
Reaver, fool, carve justice from within
Priestess, exacting judgment of a silver globe
Apparition dissolve
Dissolve and depart
In this skeletal form, reverberate and shudder
In this larval state, germinate and stutter
In this skeletal form, carry until it is over

Food Scoring Guide: Weight Loss and Cholesterol
The cholesterol-lowering effects of vegetables and beans (high-protein foods) are without question. However, they contain an assortment of additional heart disease-fighting nutrients independent of their ability to lower cholesterol.2 They fight cancer, too. Cancer incidence worldwide has an inverse relation with fruit and vegetable intake.3 If you increase your intake 80%, the risk of getting cancer drops 80%.

Recap | Box Score | Quotes | Photo Gallery

1. Bowling Green earned a 24-0 victory over UMass football at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., on Saturday, Oct. 20. The meeting marked the first between the teams in the history of the programs.
2. Freshman LB Kassan Messiah continued to be a tackling leader on the UMass defense, finishing the contest with 16 stops (2-14), including two TFLs, for a new career high (previous: 12 vs. Ohio, Nov. 29, 2012).
3. Messiah now has 44 tackles over the previous four games, an average of 11 per contest, and owns three 10-tackle games in four appearances.

The origin of the "fashion statement," if it can be fairly called that, is hard to trace. According to the website A Different State of Black, the trend toward wearing one's trousers low enough to show off his boxers or briefs may have arisen out of poverty. Another theory holds that flashing three inches of their drawers originated with hip hop "artists," though that still leaves open the question of what prompted them to do this. Regardless, many communities around the country have decreed that showing off your undies should be an act punishable by law:
Two New Jersey beach towns eager to rebuild tourist economies trashed by Superstorm Sandy have passed ordinances banning pants slung so low that underwear can be seen. In the cities of Wildwood and Penns Grove, which approved bans on saggy pants this summer, the message is clear: Don't get caught with your pants down. In Wildwood, fines range from $25 to $200.
Similar ordinances have been proposed in suburban cities outside Detroit, New Orleans, Atlanta, Miami and Jacksonville, Fla. In St.
Louis, Alderwoman Marlene Davis called a public hearing this week on a saggy pants ban she wants passed.
"This is not a style," Davis told a St. Louis newspaper. "This is an absolutely vulgar display of disrespect not only to every human being who has to look at it, but also to themselves. It's totally out of control."
Yet, the "low-rider" movement has its fierce defenders. If you don't believe it, check out this 9-step "how to" at wikiHow targeted at middle school and high school pants wearers. For those teens and tweens who can't read, there is even a helpful video demonstrating this difficult-to-master sartorial style.
One of those defenders is the redoubtable American Civil Liberties Union, which is fighting back against Davis's laws, which it declares unconstitutional. Marjorie Esman, executive director of the New Orleans ACLU, said in response to a ban passed in Vermillion Parish near New Orleans:
There is a constitutionally protected liberty interest for people wearing the clothes that they want to wear.
The trend does have its up side. On more than one occasion, law enforcement officials were able to nab bad guys who were unable to flee on foot because of their droopy jeans.

A new poll shows the vast majority of Americans feel it's better for some students to go to community college instead of a four-year school.
According to the poll by The Associated Press and Stanford University released Tuesday, 71% say it's sometimes better for students to pursue a diploma or certificate from a two-year school than aim to enter a four-year college.
But a higher percent of minorities — who are more likely than whites to enroll in a two-year college — say four-year schools are the better option. The numbers reveal a disconnect between where minority students want to go to college and where they often end up.
The poll was conducted Sept. 23-30 by Abt SRBI Inc. It involved telephone interview with 1,001 adults nationwide, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.

Yet another grave of an historic figure is being dug up. Where is the outrage?
Last year Italy exhumed Mona Lisa's grave under a Florentine nunnery to verify that she's the one in the painting, even though a death certificate indicates that she was buried there in 1542.
Now the remains of Spain's most celebrated author, Miguel de Cervantes, father of the modern novel, famed for the chivalric saga "Don Quixote," is getting dug up under the Convent of Trinitarians in Madrid, even though a record shows that he was buried there the day after his death in 1616.
What's driving this particular dig? Apparently, there's no grave marker and Spain wants to mark the exact burial spot under the convent. Not that anyone will see it, necessarily. There's no plan to move the grave.
Radar will be used to first scan the floor to ensure that a body is buried there. If so, it will be disentombed for identification
All of which cues the question, are these diggings worth the effort? Will "Don Quixote," said to have influenced Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Alexandre Dumas "Three Musketeers," be any more influential if we know the exact spot under a convent where his remains lie?
Similarly, why expose Mona Lisa. Will her mysterious smile, which attracts some six million visitors each year, draw more visitors if they know the skull and bones under a convent are or aren't hers?
Preliminary analyses of her skull and bones shows they belong to a female. Next comes comparing the skeletal DNA with two of Mona's children buried beneath a church elsewhere in Florence. Are you getting this? They're going to dig up children to make a match. If there is a match, Mona's face will be reconstructed and compared to the one in Leonardo's painting.
Will it matter if it doesn't? Won't they then want to unearth Leonardo's remains owing to a belief that the painting may be his self-portrait? And if it's not the artist or his model in the painting, won't they want to dig up all the other known possibilities: Leonardo's mother Caterina, Princess Isabella of Naples, Spanish noblewoman Costanzade'Avalos and Cecelia Gallerani - the subject of Leonardo's painting "The Lady with an Ermine"?
And let's not forget Leonardo's apprentice and supposed lover Gian Giacomo Caprotti, called Salai, who inherited the portrait after his mentor's death. It's long been theorized that the title "Mona Lisa" is an anagram for "Mon Salai."
Isn't all this unburying the same thing wrong with the King Tut exhibits? Pharaoh Tutankhamen's tomb was intended to protect his remains. It was supposed to safeguard the Egyptian ruler for the hereafter. Belief in the life after death was so strong among the Pharaohs, that food and wine were buried with them when they died. Doesn't that mean that English Egyptologist Howard Carter, who dug up Tut's grave in 1922, not only stole its contents – casket and all – but also stole Tut's eternal life?
Is disinterring in the name of art or literature ethical? Anybody?

Guest of honour at Beechwood Park School's Speech Day on Saturday, July 3, was Michael Morpurgo OBE - prize-winning author, playwright, former Children's Laureate and latterly the brains behind the 2012 Olympic mascots, Wenlock and Mandeville.
The audience of pupils, parents and staff were enraptured as Michael, a former teacher, regaled the audience with reminiscences of his own time at Prep School - which could not have been more different from boarding at Beechwood today.
Born in St Albans in 1943, Pongo (the nickname Morpurgo earned at his school) held the attention of even the youngest children, as he dispensed tips on how to become a good storyteller.
He then presented prizes, taking the opportunity to talk to many of the award winners as he did so.
Beechwood Park's Headmaster, Patrick Atkinson, comments: "Michael Morpurgo's visit to Beechwood Park will linger long in the memories of all those privileged to have witnessed it. He was very entertaining indeed."
As well as being a multi-award winning writer, Michael Morpurgo and his wife set up Farms for City Children and have three farms in Devon, Wales and Gloucestershire, open to inner city school children, who come to stay and work with the animals.
In 1999 this work was publicly recognised when he and his wife were awarded an MBE for services to youth.

Allison Carr
Classes taught:
Dr. Carr's academic interests include rhetorical theory, composition pedagogy, theories of emotion, visual and digital rhetoric, cultural studies, and creative nonfiction. Her research primarily addresses the role of emotion in learning environments, specifically with regard to struggle in writing development, and her work has appeared in College Composition and Communication, Composition Forum, Computers and Composition Online, Harlot of the Arts, Enculturation, and the forthcoming collection, Naming What We Know.
A lifelong learner herself, Dr. Carr is committed to helping students develop and understand their own learning processes, and for that reason designs classes that function as laboratories, workshops, or studios, where students work together and individually to puzzle through many aspects of cultural experience. In particular, this setting provides opportunity for struggle and difficulty, so that students may test strategies for working through such experiences openly, rather than privately, as so many are accustomed. At Coe, Dr. Carr also serves as Director of the Writing Program.
Outside of school, Dr. Carr enjoys almost any outdoor activity, especially riding her bike and hiking with her husband and two dogs, Elvis and Waylon. Having grown up at the elbows of chefs, she is also an accomplished cook and an enthusiastic eater. She follows the Reds and Royals avidly, and tweets about baseball, food, writing, language, and other matters @hors_doeuvre.
|Theresa Donofrio
The Esther and Robert Armstrong Assistant Professor of Communication Studies
B.A., Miami University
M.A., Ph.D., University of Maryland
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Classes taught:
Dr. Donofrio's academic areas of interest include rhetoric and political culture, visual rhetoric, public memory, media studies, and cultural studies. Her research most often focuses on the rhetoric surrounding public tragedies or crises. Her work has appeared in important journals such as the Western Journal of Communication and Women's Studies in Communication.
Her passion for these subjects translates into a commitment to helping her students develop their critical and analytical capacities. Dr. Donofrio strives to create accessible yet challenging classroom environments and seeks to empower students to engage with course content. On teaching at Coe, Dr. Donofrio notes, "I love the opportunity a liberal arts college provides to connect with students in small classroom environments. Because of the small class sizes at Coe, I get an opportunity to learn about my students as individuals and can design courses to meet their needs and goals."
When she is not in the classroom or the library, Dr. Donofrio can be found exploring different yoga studios, browsing bookstores, or hanging out in a coffee shop. She has a serious addiction to caramel macchiatos and pumpkin spice lattes.
Susanne Gubanc
Susanne Gubanc's favorite Coe tradition is to attend the weekly conversation at the local coffee shop with the Cosmos (campus newspaper) staff and talk over the good & bad of each issue. Along with teaching, she is an amateur photographer, once worked as a donut-girl at Dunkin Donuts and is co-founder of a feminist theatre company.
"I began to see the importance of communication and media when still in elementary school while watching old black & white movies. I think of it as storytelling, because storytelling helps us make sense of the world. When we hear a story that touches us profoundly, our lives are changed, our ideas altered. So to me, stories are our primary tools of growth. Each day we use stories to pass along information, insights, and observances. I want to help us all tell our stories."
Jane Nesmith
Classes taught:
Dr. Nesmith is the advisor for The Pearl. Besides teaching, she is a local freelance writer, a Black belt in Tae Kwon Do and the mom of two teen boys.
"Ever since I graduated from college myself, I've wanted to teach at a liberal arts college. And here I am. I find it a great source of joy to be part of a liberal arts community where students learn to think critically, communicate clearly, behave ethically, and approach any situation with curiosity and creativity."

Classes taught:
Along with teaching, Ms. Sindelar has worked as a Camp Director, been a Dance/Movement Therapist, and traveled to thirteen countries while singing in the St. Mark's choir. She loves watercolor painting, spending time at her family's century farm, and her two (nearly grown) kids.
"I love how integrated our students are with real world experiences. Our department stands out from other schools because of our love of diversity, process education, and service learning. In service learning projects, students interact with people from our community, using skills they've learned in the classroom and building experience for their résumés."
Karla Steffens-Moran
Classes taught:
Ms. Steffens-Moran loves the tradition of ringing of the bell to begin and end a student's time at Coe. Along with teaching, she has worked as a waitress in a German café, been a bus driver in Chicago and enjoys pesto on any kind of pasta.
"I love the atmosphere of a small liberal arts college where I can truly spend time one-on-one with students. Our department stands out from other schools because of our discussion-based classes versus lecture in which the communication is not just a word to describe the content, but the process by which that content is learned."
Mary Louise Taylor
