CHICAGO, IL -- (Marketwired) -- 08/20/14 -- (LinuxCon and CloudOpen) - The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization dedicated to accelerating the growth of Linux and collaborative development, today announced that Adapteva, GitHub, SanDisk, Seagate and Western Digital are joining the organization. These companies join the more than 200 existing members in supporting Linux and fostering collaboration on a truly massive scale.
A new approach to developing software that embraces open source, online code sharing, and lower barriers to entry is taking off within enterprises. Within the storage industry, for example, a growing dependency on digital data is driving new innovations in areas such as flash technology, cloud services and cloud-based storage, and Linux is paving the way. Through massive collaboration, companies across all industries are building better software and competitive differentiation, proven by the millions of open source projects hosted by GitHub alone.
More information about the new Linux Foundation members:
Adapteva, Inc., a semiconductor manufacturer based in Lexington, Mass., develops a highly energy-efficient and scalable multicore processor chip for high-performance computing applications. Adapteva's Epiphany multicore architecture represents a new class of massively parallel computer architectures targeted at devices requiring extreme energy efficiency. Adapteva is also the sponsor of the Parallella Project aimed at democratizing access to supercomputing. Powered by ARM and Epiphany processors, the Parallella is a Linux-based, credit card-sized single board computer used by a large community of researchers and developers to drive forward the state of the art in parallel computing.
"An immediate transition to massive parallel processing is needed in order to continue the exponential year-over-year computing improvements that we have seen over the last 30 years. The hardware exists already, but unfortunately only a small portion of the world's programmers are able to make use of the parallel hardware in existence today," said Andreas Olofsson, CEO and Founder of Adapteva. "Leveraging Linux and open source for the Parallella Project, our goal is to enable the critical research and education needed to finally make parallel computing ubiquitous in the marketplace. As Linux Foundation members, we'll be able to bring the benefits of open source and parallel processing to scientific computing, telecommunications, and embedded applications as quickly as possible."
Based on the open source distributed version control system Git, written by Linux creator and Linux Foundation Fellow Linus Torvalds, GitHub provides powerful code sharing, management and review for open source and private projects. As the world's largest code host, more than six million people use GitHub to write better software faster. GitHub offers software development and collaboration on GitHub.com, desktop apps and GitHub Enterprise.
"GitHub is dedicated to ensuring the continued development, advancement, and well-being of Linux, and advocating for the growth and adoption of Git," said Chris Kelly, Developer Evangelist at GitHub. "As Linux Foundation members, we're looking forward to working toward this with some of the world's largest organizations embracing open source in their businesses."
SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ: SNDK) is a global leader in flash storage solutions with the broadest portfolio of flash-memory based solutions in the industry. The company's products are used in many of the world's largest data centers, as well as embedded in advanced laptops, smartphones, and tablets. Open source is an engine for innovation in many of the markets in which SanDisk plays, including mobile, cloud, enterprise and connected consumer devices.
"SanDisk is pleased to join other industry leaders in supporting open source and Linux through our involvement with the foundation -- a key gathering place within the community," said Nithya Ruff, Director, SanDisk Open Source Strategy Office. "By engaging in open source projects that are important to our target markets, we can continue to deliver innovative products for our customers and support a thriving open source community with tools, technical contributions and employment."
Seagate offers the industry's broadest portfolio of hard disk drives, solid-state drives and solid-state hybrid drives. From video, music and documents shared through social networks to servers that form the backbone of enterprise data centers and cloud-based computing, to desktop and tablets, Seagate products help businesses and people store, share and protect their valuable digital content. In addition, the company offers an extensive line of retail storage products for consumers and small businesses, along with data-recovery services for any brand of hard drive and digital media type.
"Linux Foundation membership will help accelerate Seagate's R&D and product development with data storage, while offering our customers lower TCO and optimal performance," said Mike Miller, Engineering Director at Seagate. "By embracing open collaboration and technologies, Seagate is able to offer highly competitive, optimized, and scalable server and storage solutions for the cloud."
Western Digital is one of the largest manufacturers of reliable hard drives and solid state drives. Its companies design and manufacture storage devices, networking equipment and home entertainment products under the WD, HGST and G-Technology brands. The company's products and services are used to store, manage, experience and preserve digital information and content in the cloud, mobile devices, business and personal computers, external storage devices, home video recorders; as well as in sophisticated medical, military, aerospace, automotive, manufacturing and telecommunications systems.
"Despite size or industry, nearly every business is interested in lowering their ever-escalating storage costs," said James Borden, Director of Enterprise Storage Marketing, Western Digital. "New cloud-based services and social networks also require novel approaches to long-term storage, archiving and backup. We are joining the Linux Foundation because we believe open source will play a key role in driving developments with new, imaginative solutions for solving emerging storage challenges."
"Today's new Linux Foundation members not only showcase how important Linux is, but also illustrate the profound impact open collaboration has in building better software," said Amanda McPherson, Chief Marketing Officer at The Linux Foundation. "Our new storage members are embracing a more software-centric approach to storage and also value openness as a way to generate rapid storage, flash and disk drive innovation. We look forward to their ongoing contributions to Linux and Github's visionary leadership on code collaboration and development."

"Technically, Thunderbolt is pretty interesting as both data
and display signals will transfer over the same cable with arbitration
from the controller chip. It is a bi-directional communication that
actually provides 10 Gbps of bandwidth PER PORT. It remains backwards
compatible with existing DisplayPort displays, but since those devices
likely do NOT have female mini-DisplayPort connections on them, they
will not facilitate the daisy-chaining required for connecting
multiple devices to a single Thunderbolt connection. Unlike what some
people worried, Thunderbolt will carry some amount of power over
cable, though how much hasn't really been specified yet. Thunderbolt can work on both data streams at the same time and in both directions and it seems to get the full 10 Gbps of rated bandwidth, in each direction. This is what gives the technology the advantage over the USB 3.0 of today. "

Beijing road is a historic area. It is beautiful. It should have been made into a museum. It is turned into a commercial hub of knock off pedlars and some cheap and some high end boutiques. It is definitely worth a visit. Be careful about the people who approach you to entice you to buy knock off brands from them....
This is a cool place to buy designer copies of watches, bags, shoes and many more. It gets crowded later in the day but is empty in the mornings. Though pretty western and somewhat expensive but it is fun to hang around.
Beijing Road Shopping District is a pedestrian street, shops and food are along both sides of the street. It's a very busy environment, so its better to go there in the morning than the afternoon, because it'll get crowded after lunch time, the opening hours are from 9.00am to 22.00pm.
Beijing Road looks very Western, it has copier designer items,...
This is a very busy shopping area. There are lots of shops. The goods are of good price but you have to bargain and haggle.
There are popular Asian brands here and good number of shops carrying Chinese brands. You can spend the whole day here and still feel you have not seen everything the shopping district has to offer. What is lacking here is variety. The good thing is that you could haggle at most shops so there is always a bargain to be...
Nice shopping, but very western. I prefer some more Asian style.
Quite a lot of people offering to buy copies of watches, bags etc. Not so nice, just ignore them.
Beijing road is a very busy environment which has some hidden gems if you look closely. Most of the shops offer a good service, and are open to a small amount of bargaining if you are buying multiple items.
I heard so much about how cheap it was to shop along beijing road so I ventured out to do just that. If this is also what you hope to get, then don't bother. Prices are not as cheap as say bangkok or HCM for the same products. There is another area called Onelink International Plaza where you might have...
Very beautiful place for fun time and good shopping, at our trip time many shops are on sales!
You can buy many brand products for less
Found it better to go in the morning not so crazy, market gets very busy in the afternoon and sellers get very cranky, found a very helpful stall on the 3rd floor, think it was stall 51 Jason, if your after men's shirts his your guy.

I would like to go to Guangzhou via bullet train. Which train station is the best to board a bullet train (either Louhu or Futian). As i know these 2 train station have destination to Guangzhou; but i dont know they arrive at east or west guangzhou. I will love to arrive at place that is easy to get local food to try out, and some good bargain shopping. Is there any suggestion? Couple traveler here, but tour not accepting our trip as we had a last minute trip to shenzhen. So far i m really enjoying my "duo" solo trip; as it is much more easier, less cost and no time constraint; although i cannot read chinese :) .. Cheers !

Forty five PTAs across the country, including McKinley School's PTA in Fairfield, CT, received grants of $1,000 this week from the National PTA as part of its seventh consecutive Take Your Family to School Week Grant program aimed to expand and enhance family engagement efforts and to support student achievement.
"We're proud to provide these to PTAs at the grassroots level to ensure that our legacy lives, families are involved and students succeed," says Betsy Landers, national PTA president. "This special week also reminds us that now more than ever all families, schools, and communities need to work together to increase students achievement as U.S. children are behind their counterparts around the world in English and math."
Each PTA grantee demonstrated a commitment to improve family engagement in their school communities and showed how their work will support the PTA's national standards for family-school partnerships, which include speaking up for every child, sharing power between families and school staff, collaborating with the community, and supporting students' successes.
During Take Your Family to School Week (February 12-17), schools have planned activities featuring a variety of educational themes, including preparing for college, literacy, math, English, and more.
The week is sponsored by the AXA Foundation, the philanthropic arm of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company.

First time eating there and they were very busy and short staffed but we're very nice and accommodating. The food was delicious. Loved the big tables for larger groups.
This restaurant may be a chain restaurant. I was not familiar with it, but it has that kind of feel. The food and service were very good on a very busy day.
The service was a little slow and the booths are pretty uncomfortable so I think we will request a table next time we go. The food was really good. We all enjoyed it except for the chicken strips. I don't think my daughter will get those again. The pice of the food for the quality is good. Our server was...
I had lunch here with another couple as part of a motorcycle trip. I am from the Kansas City area and travel frequently on business, so I have been to countless BBQ joints all over the country. The characteristic wood smoke smell is a decent indicator of how committed a place is, and I had no problems picking it up...
Today, four of us ate for the first time at this restaurant. We were seated immediately, waitress took drink orders right away. They have a nice menu and have a lunch section. Lunch plates come with fries, garlic bread and your choice of baked beans or coleslaw. Two of us had lunch portions of baby back ribs and two had...
Been here a couple times and they are consistently bad. Overcooked and dry is the rule at this particular Rib Country. I've heard the others are better, but after experiencing my hometown Rib Country, I'm not willing to chance it. I'm willing to give a restaurant a second chance (Actually 3 chances, since they catered an event I attended), but...
This place is quaint, sitting at picnic tables with checkered tablecloths. Menu has a number of options , pork chicken and beef. Not really a romantic place but a Friday night with friends kind of place. Great food, good pricing. If you leave this place hunger, it is your own fault. Kids are welcome/
I enjoyed my ultimate feast so much that two nights later I pressed the wife to go eat there again. Cooked to perfection, absolutely wonderful sauces, and friendly staff - nothing needs to be changed or improved. This is the recipe for success!
Very clean and the food is good. It was busy the night we went and the seater was a little overwhelmed, but all in all, good place to eat.
Consistently good food at reasonable prices. Pleasant staff and casual atmosphere. Scrumptious blackberry cobbler!!!!

The Honeymooners: The Sleepwalker (1955)
Will Sominex Help
Average episode, which means still pretty funny. Norton's getting plenty of sleep even if he is walking all over the tenements, including the ledges. Meanwhile, Ralph's getting none because guess who Trixie comes to to rescue hubby Norton from his sleepwalking. So tie a bell to the sleepwalker and put light-sleeper Ralph next to him. Plus, lock the bedroom door and hide the key. That's got to work. Sure it does, that is, as long as Dick Tracy's not on the job. But the real question is where's that doggone Lulu.
Gleason gets to do his usual blustery arm-waving, while Carney's as funny sleepwalking as he is awake. Poor Ralph, it seems his whole life is one petty annoyance after another. And a good thing too, that way we get all-time funny TV.
Watch too for George Petrie in makeup as the doctor. He was the series' all-purpose utility actor, and turns up in many different parts.
Excuse My Dust (1951)
Topical Musical-Comedy
Fans of Red won't find him doing one of his ditzy characters here. Instead, most of the comedy comes from the set-ups with Red reacting in often normal ways. He's an inventor, most importantly of one of the first gas-mobiles (cars), whose worth he's got to prove against defenders of the horse & buggy. At the same time, he's got to somehow wangle lady-love Sally Forrest away from her cranky old livery stable owner father, Bill Demarest. And it doesn't help that rival Macdonald Carey's out to sabotage Red at every turn. So there's plenty of plot to drive things along.
My guess is that the biggest attraction now are those picturesque old autos that amount to a real curiosity. The climactic auto race provides a good chance to sample the various experimental modes of propulsion, from steam to electricity to gasoline. Then too, some of the talk about polluting autos seems almost contemporary. Nonetheless, the rural picnic scenes are utterly charming and visually compelling, along with Monica Lewis' spirited warbling and Forrest's imaginative dance number. All in all, the movie's an unexpectedly interesting and lively slice of entertainment, though not the best showcase for Skelton's brand of slapstick humor.
Homicide for Three (1948)
Sprightly Performances, Muddled Mystery
Sprightly Republic programmer. The two leads (Douglas & Long) play engaging newly-weds as they try to solve a complex murder mystery swirling around them. There's quite a bit of innuendo as they try to get a few minutes alone before the navy man has to report back for duty. But roses, a bird, and a couple of murders keep interrupting their time together. Long is particularly lively and engaging without going over the top. Fortunately, neither walks through his or her role, always a risk for a low-budget production. It's also a colorful supporting cast, especially rotund Dick Elliott as a stubborn drunk. I could have used more action, but happily director Blair keeps things moving. The mystery itself is not very involving despite the many teasers, so it's really up to the players to carry the load, which they do. All in all, it's a diverting and, at times, charming little farcical mystery.
The Twilight Zone: Passage on the Lady Anne (1963)
Is It The Titanic
Pretty good suspenser. The Ransome's (Phillips & Van Patten) are an upscale young couple. Trouble is wife Eileen's unhappy because hubby Alan appears only interested in his work. So, to get some time together, she talks him into a slow-boat to London. Much to Alan's displeasure, the ship is a leaky old tub due for retirement. But Eileen wants to make the best of it, even when the other passengers are all gentrified 70-year olds trying to talk the young couple against sailing with them. So what's going on with this mysterious voyage, and why does there seem to be an age requirement.
These hour-long entries often had to pad to fill out the time slot. That's the case here for some of the conversations. Nonetheless, the premise keeps up interest as viewers try to guess where the Lady Anne is going and what the deal is with all the elderly passengers politely discouraging the youngsters from going along. It's also a good chance to catch a number of Hollywood's elegant oldsters on the same screen. But, it's really Van Patten who shines by going through a number of nicely shaded emotional stages. The upshot seems a little abrupt, but is, I guess, apt for the subject matter. All in all, it's a fairly suspenseful episode without being memorable.
Tell Your Children (1936)
Oh my gosh, my post-war generation was still under the influence of this tripe and believed one puff would ruin a lifetime. No wonder the 60's generation talked about a credibility gap as they puffed away. This is a bad movie highlighted by the ridiculous and no one in front of the camera or behind seems to care. Do the producers really believe this burlesque. Or maybe they're shilling for the liquor lobby then regaining its post-Prohibition popularity, or maybe the plastics lobby then worried about the manufacturing possibilities of hemp oil.
In a way, it's too bad the movie comes across now as a joke. Pot may not be the Devil's brew, but it does dull awareness, and in that sense remains a risk. So hyping the effects has had a reverse effect that also needs to be considered. Nonetheless, the movie's smug authorities from school principal to courtroom judge to official narrator are enough to get me to light up and puff away. Plus they're not even good for a laugh.
Mulholland Falls (1996)
Dealing With An Awkward Screenplay
On the whole the movie strikes me as an unusually cynical take-down of the historically white-washed 1950's. Set in the early part of that conformist decade, the styles, costumes, and general milieu are well done. The screenplay, however, is too convoluted to provide much impact, while character development is sacrificed to plot devices. Thus the movie provides more interest than involvement.
Instead of adding to the much discussed formal elements of the movie, I want to briefly outline one way of unifying the narrative's meandering and often confusing narrative. There is, I think, an underlying theme that can bring these elements together into a unifying focus. And that key theme has to do with the unquestioning popular reverence for authority that was on high during the early 1950's. After all, that was a formative period of the emerging Cold War, and established authority was taken as an unassailable line of defense. In my view, the movie casts corrosive doubt on that popular reverence, even if 50-years later.
Note first how brutally the Hat Squad enforces their own version of the law. There really was a Hat Squad in the LAPD during that period, but you won't find them portrayed in Jack Webb's hugely popular and carefully sanitized Dragnet series that defined law enforcement for the 50's. Note too, how the Hats' extra-legal methods sometimes amount to murder and are tolerated not only by themselves but by police higher-ups. Now I don't know if the real Squad was that thuggish, but the movie can be taken as an iconoclastic look at Dragnet's defining version of the LAPD.
Note too, how J. Edgar Hoover's supposedly incorruptible FBI is portrayed. Hoover himself is even portrayed as not above making evidence squelching deals with LAPD officials in order to protect federal higher-ups; that is, when his agents are not trashing cop Nolte's suburban home. Needless to say, this too is a long way from how the Agency was portrayed in movies and TV of the time (The FBI Story, {1959}). But here, agents are just one more gang of well-dressed thugs.
And finally there's the atomic testing program on which the safety of the Free World was popularly thought to rest. In the movie, however, mutilated soldiers are shown collapsed on their collective death beds, victims of the same radiation testing. Of course, the film shows this to be the most carefully guarded authority abuse of all, since it involves a vital national priority. Recalling that time, I remember rumors of what happened to soldiers sent into the detonation field and the sicknesses that emerged as a result. Still, what was the use of such weapons unless they could also be used in battlefield conditions, instead of just wiping out cities.
Thus three key institutions of both then (1950's) and now are portrayed as corrupt, at best, and murderous, at worst, their authority thereby put into question. Of course, General Timms (Malkovitch) presents what can be taken as the overarching justification for such dubious authority. It's more or less a utilitarian rationale when he states that "some must die before their time, so that others can live. It's a cornerstone of civilization." In short, some innocent folks must be sacrificed for the betterment of all. I suspect versions of this 'greater good' have salved the conscience of many a higher-up regardless of time period.
Now I don't claim that the makers of MF had this debunking theme in mind when devising the film. I do, however, think it's one way of drawing together the various threads of an unwieldy narrative. As to the movie itself, it comes across as generally interesting, sometimes atmospheric, but most of all, a good advertisement for tobacco brands of the 50's.
Springtime in the Sierras (1947)
Fighting for Our Wildlife
First-rate matinée fare with Roy in fine early form. Republic popped for more than usual with a load of extras and TruColor. Then too, the storyline's almost contemporary with Roy and guys trying to save wildlife from greedy poachers. Of course, this means flying fists, fast guns, and hard riding. Plus a gang headed by a pretty girl (Bachelor), instead of the usual mustachioed slickster. Wow! And most challenging of all, Roy's got to survive being trapped in a frozen meat locker, of all things. Good thing hefty Andy Devine's along providing more than comedy relief. I guess Dale was busy elsewhere, so nifty little Jane Frazee gets to supply the romance, while the Sons of the Pioneers get to croon a few tunes along with our hero. I guess my only minus is the locations. Too bad Republic didn't pop for more scenic surroundings than scrubby greater LA. But that's okay since there's more than enough to keep this Front Row geezer happy, and hopefully you too.
The Twilight Zone: The Man in the Bottle (1960)
A Clever Twist?
It's a pregnant premisehaving four wishes granted by a mysterious genie. So what will the aging shopkeepers wish for. To this point, their lives have been a struggle turning their seedy antique wares into a living. But, it's a poor neighborhood, and the big-hearted Arthur (Adler) is a soft touch for hard luck stories. So when a suave, well- dressed genie suddenly appears from a magic wine bottle and promises four wishes, we wonder what the not-very-imaginative couple will wish for. Too bad they don't pay much attention to his caveat. After all, how can wishes have unforeseen consequences.
The visuals are more dour than usual, suggesting the couple's unhappy situation even after their wishes materialize. And though it's not clear, I take that rather conventional ending as an ironical comment on appreciating what you've got. In short, that sneaky twist was the genie's real intention all along.
All in all, Adler and Janiss make a rather poignant middle-age couple. But my real money is on Ruskin as the sneering, perfectly cast, genie. His scarred face and smug smile are riveting, and amount to my special carry-away from the half-hour.
The Alfred Hitchcock Hour: Blood Bargain (1963)
Superior Hitch
Okay, I'll watch anything with Anne Francis, but this is superior Hitch with a deliciously ironical ending. Suspense is on high as icy hit-man Derry (Kiley) is hired by crook (Martin) to take out the double-crossing Breech (Long). Looks like a routine rubout for the coldly professional Derry. Trouble is he's not so icy under that deadpan demeanor once he spots wheelchair-confined Breech's young wife, Connie (Francis). Abruptly, Derry betrays his assignment by scheming to fake Breech's death and get the couple to Mexico. That way, everybody will be superficially satisfied. However, being a Hitch, we know things will not work out as planned.
Kiley's first rate as the professional killer. It's hard to tell what's going on under that expressionless demeanor. Still, his abrupt change-of-mind once he helps Connie at the jukebox remains a stretch and maybe the entry's only flaw. Otherwise, the screenplay's a really imaginative work by series favorite Henry Slesar. Note the colorful touch by Barney Martin's hard-bitten gangster once he turns from the killing business to gushing over his little daughter. It's little nonessentials like this that lift an entry into the exceptional. Then too, I had a hard time believing this cut-throat gangster was also Jerry Seinfeld's loopy dad in that classic comedy series. Anyway, the hour's really good Hitch, so don't miss it.
The Twilight Zone: The Shelter (1961)
What Would You Do
This is a really unnerving entry, probably because it hits so close to home for not just Cold War 1961, but even now. Nonetheless, 1961 was a time when a Hot War could break out at any moment, which the 30-minutes capitalizes on. Note how the opening shows our typical suburban community in joyous abandon. That sets up the tragedy that follows, when reports of atomic missiles striking are broadcast. Immediately, the boisterous good feeling collapses into panic as family survival suddenly becomes uppermost. The problem is that only one of the families has followed Civil Defense instructions to construct a bomb shelter. Thus the Stocktons rush to their shelter, while the others frantically mill about. Having nowhere obvious to go, the panicked, folks plead with the Stocktons to share their shelter. But the confines are too small, so Dad Stockton refuses. But what will happen now that suburban comity has collapsed into sheer clamor for survival.
As I recall, this was a 'water cooler' episode that attracted considerable attention, as folks wondered what they would do in similar circumstances. However, the underlying subtext could apply to any calamitous situation, and what a person or family would do once ordinary bonds are shattered. Thus, the theme has much broader application than Cold War 1961.
The acting here is first-rate, making us feel the desperate fright. Given the alarming relevancy to the time, I expect the producers were especially concerned how the results would be popularly taken. After all, the topic was not really about another time or another place far away. All in all, it's a riveting, if unsettling, 30-minutes.

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Aaryn Ellenberg scored 26 points and Joanna McFarland totaled a double-double with a career-high 24 points and 11 rebounds as No. 16 Oklahoma stayed perfect in Big 12 play with an 85-79 win at TCU Wednesday.
Oklahoma (13-2, 3-0 Big 12) continued its efficient ways on offense, shooting 49 percent from the field, but it was the Sooners' execution on defense through the final minutes that sealed the victory over the Horned Frogs (7-7, 0-3).
"I was really proud of our second-half effort," OU head coach Sherri Coale said. "We were flat early on, give TCU credit they hit a bunch of shots, but I'm not sure we made them very difficult."
Morgan Hook, who had a double-double with 13 points and a career-high 12 assists, connected on a middle drive and 1 to give OU a two-point lead with 1 ½ minutes to play.
The following possession, Ellenberg forced a turnover that converted to a Sharane Campbell pull-up jumper as the shot clock expired to give OU an 81-77 lead.
Campbell scored 11 points to reach double figures for the fourth straight game as a member of the starting lineup.
Ellenberg, who lost her left shoe on the ensuing half-court inbounds, forced Kamy Cole's dribble out of bounds, then deflected the next inbounds off Cole's leg for a turnover to seal the victory.
"I think our discipline to go inside late in the game was impressive," Coale added."So I'm very proud."
TCU's Natalie Ventress scored a game-high 27 points, but had just four in the second half.
TCU hit 47 percent of its first-half shots, including eight of 15 3-pointers, to lead Oklahoma 44-39 at halftime. It was the most points the Sooners have given up in the first period this season.
"We talked about their guards being their strengths," Coale said. "Their willingness to shoot the 3s -- you can tell in film those guys have a lot of confidence. They believe they are suppose to make those shots."
TCU led 61-53 with 12 minutes remaining before OU went on 10-2 run to tie the game 63-63. The Sooners then allowed six unanswered points before collecting the game's 18th and final lead change.
"I thought it was a great basketball game," TCU head coach Jeff Mittie said. "Both teams were going at each other for 40 minutes. It really boils down to a couple plays here and there and they made a few more than we did."

This is part of an on-going series of posts about littleBits projects. littleBits is available in the Adafruit store – Starter Kit, Extended Kit, Deluxe Kit, Synth Kit, Arduino Module, and Arduino Starter Bundle.
They say music is a universal language, so we made a littleBits circuit that demonstrates how it possible to play music from Earth on the International Space Station. NASA uses electromagnetic waves to communicate with satellites orbiting Earth. Our miniature version of the ISS wirelessly receives sound data through light.
How Does It Work?
A microphone module converts the digitized music from an MP3 player into a series of light wave pulses through an IR LED. These light pulses are decoded by a light sensor on the ISS, and converted to sound waves by a speaker module.
You can also build a desktop experimental model using either a bright LED or an IR LED for different effects.
What happens when you move the light Bit further away from the Light Sensor? What happens if you block the Light Sensor with your hand? What if you use a thin sheet of tissue paper? How does that affect the digital signal?
The Data Communication project and ISS are both have excellent educational content. If you're interested in learning more, you'll find four additional lessons from NASA over at littleBits.cc.

State takes sales taxes high-tech
Published: Sunday, March 14, 2010 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 13, 2010 at 11:19 p.m.
HOUMA — A new online service is making filing sales-tax returns easier, local tax officials and the state Department of Revenue say.
Since August 2008, the state has collected more than $1 billion using its Parish E-File program, which lets businesses file their monthly and quarterly sales-tax returns online.
Those that operate in multiple parishes can pay all at once instead of filling out a paper return for each parish office.
"Making the sales-and-use tax process more business-friendly was the main reason for our investment in developing Parish E-File," Cynthia Bridges, the state's secretary of revenue, said in a news release. "The ability to file returns and remit taxes through
this secure, easy-to-use online portal saves time and money for business owners."
Since the online service was launched, Lafourche has collected $16.1 million from 15,196 sales-tax returns and more than $52,000
from 117 hotel-and-motel tax returns, according to the Revenue Department.
Terrebonne has brought in $28.1 million from 19,027 returns, and more than $466,000 from 118 hotel-and-motel returns.
Terrebonne collects a 4.5 percent sales tax; Lafourche's runs from 4 percent to 5.2 percent.
The money is used for government functions like the sheriff's offices, local school boards and hurricane-protection projects, among others.
Chris Lagarde, who handles the returns for Terrebonne as the director of its Sales and Use Tax Office, says the program has saved both taxpayers and the government time and money.
"It is a sign of the times," Lagarde said. "People will be using electronic filing more and more."
Much of the math on the electronic filing is done automatically and the parish receives it as soon as submitted.
The tax-collection office also saves money on printing and postage, since it doesn't have to mail any more paper returns to the 16 percent or so of taxpayers currently using the system.
"It's been great for us," Lagarde said. "Taxpayers we've talked to say they love it."

text: The Vin Diesel Codemark6/01/06 8:38pmFiled to: Davinci CodeDefamerSonyAmy PascalEditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkSony's Amy Pascal might be publicly banking on the involvement of starting Da Vinici Code Blasphemy Dream Team backcourt Ron Howard and Tom Hanks in her studio's planned sequel, Angels & Demons, but NPR's Kim Masters reports that should Hanks' schedule interfere, the franchise could still survive: Despite Pascal's unequivocal insistence that Hanks and Howard will return, some informed speculation holds that Sony could live without either of them for the next installment. The talent on The Da Vinci Code is expensive, and some at the studio—looking at the film's extraordinary success overseas—give a measure of credit to a strong international cast, including Jean Reno, Ian McKellen, and Audrey Tautou. Since Angels & Demons is set before the events of The Da Vinci Code, a younger (and cheaper) male lead might work out fine. All things being equal, of course, we'd bet Pascal would be happy to make the investment in Hanks and eschew the more budget-minded options; she'd spare herself innumerable nights of waking up drenched in sweat, haunted by nightmares of Vin Diesel in Hanks' much-ridiculed Da Vinci hairpiece, attempting to mumble his way through page after page of stilted expository dialogue.

Library JournalIf our pets could tell us what ails them, it would be easy to diagnose and treat their illnesses. Since this is not the case, we must be part sleuth and part psychic to interpret properly the clues they give us. These two titles by a veterinarian offer help in an easy-to-use format. The first chapter discusses emergency situations such as bite wounds and heat stroke, while the second chapter describes abnormal behaviors such as aggression and lethargy. The following eight chapters tour the animal's body from head to toe, offering thorough discussions of symptoms, diagnoses, possible causes, care, and prevention. Five appendixes include a checklist for good health, information on performing weekly home exams, breed disease predilections, a series of questions to answer before going to the veterinarian, and a list of recommended dosages of over-the-counter medications, herbs, and minerals. Highly recommended for pet care collections.Peggie Partello, Keene State Coll. Lib., NH

President Barack Obama's mention of "fascists" and "homegrown demagogues" in his convention speech wasn't aimed at Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
That's what White House press secretary Josh Earnest is telling reporters the day after Obama argued for Democrat Hillary Clinton's election over Trump.
Obama said "anyone who threatens our values, whether fascists or communists or jihadists or homegrown demagogues, will always fail in the end."
Obama had criticized Trump several times before arriving at that particular line in the speech, including saying that American power "doesn't come from a self-declared savior promising that he alone can restore order as long as we do things his way."
Trump said in his acceptance speech at last week's GOP convention that "I alone can fix" a political system he says is rigged.]]>

Kansas Department for Children and Families Secretary Phyllis Gilmore brushed off two Democrats' calls for her resignation and defended her agency Wednesday following an audit critical of its oversight of the state's foster care system.
Gilmore acknowledged that the audit was "negative," but disputed some of it and said the agency already had started correcting most of the deficiencies cited.
Gilmore, a social worker and former legislator appointed by Republican Gov. Sam Brownback four years ago, said she won't step down.
"I don't intend to," Gilmore said after Wednesday's Legislative Post Audit hearing. "I serve at the pleasure of the governor."
The report released Wednesday was published by the Legislature's independent auditing team. It was intended to evaluate how safe foster care is for Kansas children, who have entered the system in record numbers in recent years.
Download the Report: Legislative Post Audit of Kansas Foster Care System
The auditors found Gilmore's agency and its contractors performed inadequate background checks of foster parents, missed monthly home checks or at least failed to document them, didn't adequately investigate some abuse and neglect reports, and gave almost universal exemptions to living space requirements.
The audit came after several high-profile incidents of children harmed while in state custody.
That included the case of Jonathan Schumm, a Topeka city councilman who resigned after he and his wife were brought up on child abuse charges.
The Schumms had more than a dozen children living in their 2,200-square-foot home when a judge agreed with DCF's recommendation that they be allowed to adopt a child that was being fostered by a lesbian couple in Wichita.
That raised questions about potential bias toward same-sex couples within DCF, but legislators instructed auditors not to investigate that.
Space requirements waived
The audit released Wednesday, however, found that DCF granted exemptions to sleeping space requirements for 98 percent of those requested.
An attorney for the department said most of those exemptions were granted to keep siblings together.
But Sen. Laura Kelly, a Democrat from Topeka, called the process "rubber-stamping" that clearly needs reform.
"An exception should be exactly that — an exception," Kelly said. "Not a standard operating procedure."
Gilmore said the department is tightening enforcement of that policy.
She repeatedly told the legislative committee that children are safe in Kansas foster homes. The auditors, she said, examined only 40 of the thousands of safety checks the department oversees each year and found the department's response lacking in only five.
"That still is not acceptable," Gilmore said. "But at the same time we realize we will never be perfect. There will always be human error."
Gilmore urged legislators to look at federal assessments that rank Kansas' foster care system among the top in the nation for child safety. Those, she said, are more comprehensive than the auditors' work.
"We can be proud that Kansas is a leader in keeping children safe when they're in our custody," Gilmore said.
Rep. Ed Trimmer, a Democrat from Winfield, asked why he should put more stock in the federal assessments, given that the state chooses which cases the federal inspectors examine.
"Why is that a more comprehensive review?" Trimmer asked, adding that major problems had been uncovered in other states with high federal marks.
Background checks lacking
The audit also turned up deficiencies with background checks of prospective foster parents, including some that did not include fingerprints and some that only checked based on parents' current names. The department failed to provide annual follow-up background checks in nearly all cases.
Gilmore said she is working with another state agency to implement a continuously updating background check system that would notify DCF of any disqualifying arrests after the initial check.
"It is potentially life-saving," she said.
Gilmore said a survey of employees conducted by the auditors that found high turnover and low morale carry little weight because only 37 percent of those who received the survey responded. Satisfied employees would be less likely to respond, she said, thereby skewing the results.
"Those findings are going to be somewhat misleading because they are not statistically sound," Gilmore said.
But she cautioned that negative media attention surrounding the audit could lower morale.
Republicans on the committee said the problems described track back several decades through multiple administrations.
Sen. Julia Lynn, a Republican from Olathe, called the audit "painful to listen to." She reiterated concerns about the 1997 privatization of foster care that now has the state distributing $280 million a year to contractors.
"I'm not so sure that privatizing this really is the answer," Lynn said.
An audit on the privatization is coming later this year, and DCF is renegotiating contracts.
Meanwhile, Rep. Jarrod Ousley, a Democrat from Merriam, said he and Rep. Jim Ward, a Democrat from Wichita, still want Gilmore to resign.
"Our kids are too valuable to have this sort of leadership," Ousley said.

ABILENE, Kan. (AP) — Baseball players will don uniforms from the 1860s and use equipment from the era during a game next week in Abilene.
The Eisenhower Presidential Library, Museum and Boyhood Home is sponsoring the Aug. 6 game. It will be played at Eisenhower Park, during the Central Kansas Free Fair, with rules from the Victorian era.
The rules are different from today's game. For example, outfielders can catch the ball on one bounce for an out and base stealing and sliding are prohibited.
On the field will be the "Abilene Iron Cutters" and the "Wichita Bull Stockings" of the Cowtown Vintage Base Ball Club.
"This is a fun event, recreating the game from a bygone era," said Tim Rives, Acting Director, Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum. "We encourage individuals and families to take advantage of this great 'Americana' experience."]]>
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — After a Reno County jury found a 27-year-old man accused of aggravated kidnapping "not guilty" of that charge, but "guilty" of a lesser included offense of criminal restraint, he's scheduled for sentencing Friday.
Arthur Pina Jr. was also found guilty of battery-domestic violence, possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia.
The victim testified at trial that she was with Pina and they apparently got into an argument over marijuana and also a phone call he received from another woman. She admitted that they were driving around smoking marijuana that day and, as the argument escalated, she wanted to leave his vehicle. She told the jury that he wouldn't let her go and, at one point, had her in a headlock and allegedly punched her in her right eye. They were driving on K-61 and he finally stopped to let her out on an exit ramp.
When police made contact with Pina, they discovered the drugs, that being a blue Q-tips container with three small bags of cocaine as well as some pipes, scales and other paraphernalia.
All this occurred on Nov. 1, 2015.
The sentencing is scheduled in front of Judge Tim Chambers.]]>
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 29-year-old man who held Hutchinson Police at bay back in December after stabbing a Hutchinson woman is scheduled for sentencing Friday.
Toby Hippen was charged with attempted first-degree murder, or in the alternative, aggravated battery. He entered a plea to the battery charge and the other two charges, attempted murder and aggravated burglary, were dismissed.
He's now guilty of forcing his way into a residence of a Hutchinson woman and stabbing her repeatedly and then fleeing the scene. She was eventually taken to a Wichita-area hospital in serious condition.
He was later found at a home where he held police at bay, closing down a portion of west 5th street. He eventually surrendered without incident.
You may recall Hippen as being convicted of causing severe injuries to a 2-year-old child. He was granted two years community corrections for aggravated battery and one count of aggravated endangerment of a child.
He was discharged from corrections in that case in April of 2014.
He faces a maximum sentence of over 14 years in prison.]]>
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A 22-year-old woman and her boyfriend apparently got into an altercation early Thursday morning at a home on Grandview in Hutchinson.
The boyfriend apparently attempted to leave and Skylar Lane allegedly grabbed him and tried to pull him out of the vehicle. When that failed, she allegedly went in the home and came back and threatened him with a gun, saying "I might as well shoot you."
She told police there was no threat because she says there was no gun, but a search warrant was obtained and police allegedly found the weapon inside.
Lane was arrested for aggravated assault and battery-domestic violence. Bond in the case was left at $7,500.
All this occurred just before 1 a.m.
Lane will be back in court on Aug. 4 to hear what charges the state files against her.]]>
TOWANDA, Kan. (AP) — Authorities have identified a man killed in a south-central Kansas house fire.
Butler County Undersheriff Tony Wilhite says 56-year-old Steven Hulse was killed last week when the fire broke out in the living room of his Towanda house. The Wichita Eagle reports that he was found next to his bed in the living room.
Hulse's 16-year-old son had gone to a friend's house earlier in the evening. When he returned, he went inside, but intense heat and soot forced him back outdoors.]]>
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Children who fled from their mother several months after they were taken to sing for occupiers during the armed takeover of an Oregon wildlife refuge will remain in the custody of Kansas child welfare officials.
The Kansas City Star reports that a judge cited abuse in ruling Wednesday that Odalis Sharp couldn't get her children back. Sharp has 10 children, but several are over 18. The younger children were ordered to remain in state custody.
Several of the children testified that their mother hit them with rods. They said she yelled and screamed Bible verses during the punishment.
Sharp, of Auburn, Kansas, said she was a woman of God and loved her children. Sharp has 30 days to appeal but said she hasn't decided if she will do so.]]>
