DHCP DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) software automatically assigns IP addresses to client stations logging onto a TCP/IP network. which eliminates the need to manually assign permanent IP addresses. DMZ DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) is a part of a network that is located between a secure LAN and an insecure WAN. It translates from name to address and from address to name. Firewalls use filters to prevent unwanted packets from being transmitted. 43 . Glossary Access Point An interview networking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks Authentication Authentication refers to the verification of a transmitted message's integrity. Filter Filters are schemes which only allow specified data to be transmitted. DNS DNS stands for Domain Name System. Domain Name The domain name typically refers to an Internet site address. the router can filter specific IP addresses so that users cannot connect to those addresses. DMZs provide a way for some clients to have unrestricted access to the Internet.4. DNS converts machine names to the IP addresses that all machines on the net have. Firmware Firmware refers to memory chips that retain their content without electrical power (for example. Firewall Firewalls are methods used to keep networks secure from malicious intruders and unauthorized access. Fragmentation Refers to the breaking up of data packets during transmission. The router firmware stores settings made in the interface. For example. BIOS ROM). DTIM DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) provides client stations with information on the next opportunity to monitor for broadcast or multicast messages. Firewalls are typically used to provide secure access to the Internet while keeping an organization's public Web server separate from the internal LAN.
FTP FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used to transfer files over a TCP/IP network. HTTP HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol) is the communications protocol used to connect to servers on the World Wide Web. IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods (for example. LANs are comprised of servers. applications.

Plextor M3 Pro 256GB (PX-256M3P) Solid State Drive Review
HD Tune Pro
Version and / or Patch Used: 4.00
Developer Homepage: http://www.efdsoftware.com
Product Homepage: http://www.hdtune.com
HD Tune is a Hard Disk utility which has the following functions:
Benchmark: measures the performance
Info: shows detailed information
Health: checks the health status by using SMART
Error Scan: scans the surface for errors
Temperature display
HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has been gaining popularity amongst reviewers. It is now considered a must have application for storage device testing.
The Plextor M3 Pro produced a near perfect plot on the graph with very few ripples. The average speed recorded was just over 384MB/s which puts it a little faster than the Vertex 3 240GB when we reviewed it.
The sequential write speed is a little slower on the M3 Pro than it is on the Vertex 3 in this synthetic benchmark. HD Tune Pro uses compressible data. We'll look at incompressible data later in this review.

Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 3D LED TV
This 3D LED television from Sony has great picture quality and Internet features
- Six star power rating, great Bravia Internet Video features, excellent motion control when displaying fast-moving content
- Expensive, some 3D display issues
Bottom Line
The Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 is a very attractive, feature-packed edge-lit LED television, but its 3D decoding does leave a little to be desired. If 3D is your thing it's outclassed by competitors from Samsung and Panasonic, but as a sports-watcher's television it's one of the best. It handles motion very well, and its picture clarity when displaying high-definition 2D content is excellent.
Price$ 5,499.00 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 1 store)
- 11-18mm f4.5-5.6 DT Lens 670.00
Sony's Bravia KDL-52LX900 is the company's top television — for its $5499 price tag you get a 52in 3D LED TV with some seriously extensive Internet video-on-demand features, excellent motion control and a good quality Full HD 1080p LCD panel. However, its 3D playback of movies is sometimes imperfect, and it's more expensive than its direct competitors. If you're a cashed-up sports fan who is also a sucker for stylish industrial design — hey, these people exist — this is the perfect television for you.
Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900: Design, connectivity and setup
Sony has had an excellent track record with its television designs over the past few years, producing masterpieces like the Bravia KDL-46HX700, the Bravia KDL-40E500 and Bravia KDL-46EX1 — even though there have been missteps like the Bravia KDL-46WE5.
The Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 looks similar to Sony's other 2010 LCD televisions with a clean and angular design that's both stylish and easy to clean. It has a borderless, glossy front not unlike the LG 55LE7500 (but thankfully it's a lot less reflective).
Four HDMI ports means a swathe of high-definition digital video products can be connected simultaneously. Older A/V devices can be connected through the side- and rear-mounted composite, component and VGA ports, while two USB 2.0 and one Ethernet ports allow multimedia streaming and playback.
Setting up the Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 is a breeze. On-screen prompts help you through initial adjustments to picture and sound quality, and the digital television channel tuning process is completed quickly. Network configuration is easier whether via the wired Ethernet or inbuilt 802.11g wireless, and allows access to the excellent integrated Bravia Internet Video service — which has recently been updated with some new channels, making it an even more attractive feature.
Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900: Picture quality and motion control
When it comes to 2D HD content, the picture of the Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 is excellent. You'll need to do a little image tweaking to ensure the best picture quality for your living space — while we found the Movie preset was the best overall in terms of sharpness, colour saturation and contrast, we lowered the backlight significantly and slightly reigned in the colour levels to ensure there was no oversaturation or backlight clouding. Full HD Blu-ray content looks very clear; we were consistently impressed by the TV during our viewing of Watchmen.
Contrast is good, but like almost all other edge-lit LED televisions there is a small amount of black crush and some detail lost in highlights. While you'll only be concerned by this if you watch the opening scenes of The Dark Knight over and over — leave that laborious task to us — it does mean the Sony Bravia KDL52-LX900 is technically slightly inferior to a high-end plasma or backlit LED television.
3D playback is harder to assess, because it is as reliant on the filming of the content itself as it is the quality of the television displaying it. We found the Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 to be a mixed bag — our test 3D movie of Monsters vs. Aliens 3D displayed some crosstalk and haziness around object edges, but switching to some recorded footage of the NRL State of Origin football was much more pleasing to watch. Unlike cheaper models, Sony has integrated a 3D transmitter into the Bravia KDL-52LX900 and includes two pairs of glasses.
Where the Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 excels is in its control over fast-moving content on screen. The State of Origin footage we watched was clear and jitter-free, even in 3D. Action movies are equally well handled, with no obvious jitter or uneven motion during panning shots or close-up motion.
Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900: Power consumption and environmental policy
The Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 is an excellent performer when it comes to power consumption and energy efficiency. After taking readings throughout three Blu-ray movies we achieved an average power consumption figure of 215 Watts with power management settings enabled — not too far from the 185W figure quoted by Sony. The use of a physical on/off switch cuts power usage to zero when you're not using the television for an extended period, but an efficient standby mode and presence sensor (like we saw in the Bravia KDL-40EX700 and Bravia KDL-46WE5) means that the Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 can be set up to save electricity whenever possible.
Sony's environmental policy says that the company "explores every opportunity to reduce environmental impact" and aims to operate in an environmentally responsible manner. The company's Web site details various initiatives to reduce waste.
The Sony Bravia KDL-52LX900 is a good all-round LED television, even though 3D playback could use some work. If you're looking for a super-stylish TV, or if you're into sport or video on demand, this is one of the best models to consider.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

User talk:Mtking
Having reflected on this over the weekend, I have concluded that I need to move on from here. Clearly it is not news to anyone that the MMA coverage on WP is a total cesspit of distrust. It is stuffed full of socks, to the point that WP:AGF is hard on any "new" account, I have literally lost count of the number of editors who have socked to enforce their own view that if it moves in the world of MMA it must have it's own wiki article.
To me it seems that there is almost a disposability to a wiki account for the pro-mma faction, a sense that if you get blocked sit it out or create a new account, if you get caught then just create another account and repeat as often as is needed. The pro-mma group has worked out there is no need to make meaningful progress towards a notability guideline because keeping the angst going on here and on the forums helps them.
In my view the first step to resolving this whole mess is two pronged, firstly the community should consider being proactive, and specifically allow checkuser checks looking for disruptive behavior to be run every month on all users who edit WP:MMA or is sub pages and secondly that every MMA AfD is checked before it is assessed for consensus. Then once it is clear that it is a sock free area should a admin-driven process on finding a notability guideline should be undertaken.
I doubt I will be back, but never say never.
Just for the record I intend to scramble the password for this account and remove the e-mail access. ✍ Mtking ✉ 02:05, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Is the giant doughnut gone for good?
LONG BEACH – Marty Poissant and Gary Morrison said they were sad to see an iconic pink giant doughnut sign hoisted and removed from its home Thursday on Seventh Street near Pacific Coast Highway, albeit for very different reasons.
Poissant stopped by with his sons Andre, 8, and Luc, 6, and reminisced.
"My dad and I mowed lawns in the neighborhood, and after we were done we'd stop and eat donuts here," he said of the now closed doughnut and coffee shop last known as the Original Grind.
Poissant remembers sitting at a semicircle counter inside and playing music on the jukebox.
"It's a part of Long Beach, a landmark," Poissant said of the sign.
Morrison is a resident of the neighborhood and saw the removal of the sign as moving one step closer to what he fears will be a traffic nightmare in the area, particularly in the nearby side streets that make up his neighborhood.
A Dunkin' Donuts franchise is scheduled to move into the space, and the current building will be demolished.
The franchisee, Frontier Restaurant Group, initially rejected a proposal to include the big 1950s doughnut sign in its design of an 1,889-square-foot, drive-through restaurant.
However, after an outcry from residents and preservationists, which included the creation of a Facebook page called "Save the Donut," the new owners relented. They told the Long Beach Planning Commission they would be willing to incorporate the giant doughnut on the property, despite some concerns about the structural integrity of the 20-foot fiberglass sign.
"We don't want to be viewed as the guys who killed the doughnut," Dan Almquist, managing partner with Newport Beach-based Frontier Restaurant Group, told the Register in February.
It was also in February that another local newspaper reported that the doughnut already had been removed. Reports of that death were an exaggeration, to paraphrase Mark Twain.
Morrison was less concerned about the loss of the doughnut than the increased traffic he foresaw with a drive-through restaurant being positioned near the busy intersection of Seventh Street and PCH.
"I think this is a quality-of-life issue first and a doughnut issue second," he said.
Morrison said he doubted the doughnut sign would be returned once the Dunkin' Donuts is in place, despite the owner's assurances.
The owners of the new restaurant said they hope to open in September.

BERLIN — German Chancellor Angela Merkel will travel to Greece next week for the first time since the debt crisis erupted to meet the country's prime minister — who warned Friday that Athens will run out of money at the end of November if it doesn't receive the next part of its bailout loans.
Because Germany has been instrumental in pushing Greece to make austerity cuts in exchange for its bailout loans, Merkel has routinely been the object of anger at public protests in Athens. Her photograph has been manipulated by Greek newspapers to look like a Nazi officer and a prisoner at Guantanamo Bay.
Merkel's spokesman, Steffen Seibert, was at pains on Friday to portray next week's trip as "a normal visit."
He underlined Germany's message that it wants Greece to stay in the euro bloc — but that the Greeks also must push ahead with their painful reforms. Since Greece received its first bailout in May 2010, it has repeatedly slashed incomes, hiked taxes and raised retirement ages.
Merkel's visit Tuesday follows an invitation that Prime Minister Antonis Samaras made when he visited Berlin in August. It wasn't immediately clear whether she will meet anyone else on her first visit to Greece since July 2007.
"We want to help Greece to stabilize itself in the eurozone. We are doing that by contributing massively to the rescue programs that are supposed to help get Greece out of the crisis," Seibert said. "This will only be possible with major efforts on the part of the Greeks — we see that there is increased reforming zeal under the Samaras government and we want to support that."
Merkel has been noncommittal on Greece's hopes of getting more time to enact reforms and repay its loans, but has rejected talk from some in her center-right coalition about a possible Greek exit from the 17-nation euro.
Greek government spokesman Simos Kedikoglou said that "this visit is very positive for the strengthening of traditional ties between the two countries and will certainly be another important step towards future European decisions."
Officials from the European Commission, International Monetary Fund and European Central Bank — the so-called "troika" — are currently in Greece assessing the country's progress in fulfilling the terms for receiving aid.
If their report doesn't clear the way for the payment of the next €31 billion ($40 billion) tranche of the country's bailout, Greece could be forced to default on its debts and perhaps leave the euro. It's unclear when a decision will come.
Asked in an interview with German business daily Handelsblatt how long Greece can hold out without that payment, Samaras was quoted as saying: "Until the end of November. Then the till will be empty."
Samaras said Greece is pressing ahead with budget consolidation, working on speeding up privatization and trying to attract foreign investors. But he conceded that there are difficulties in negotiations with the troika.
"The troika is demanding above all further cuts to pensions and wages. That is very difficult, because we are already bleeding," he said. "The existing cuts already go to the bone. We are at the limit of what we can expect of our population."
The conservative Samaras leads a three-party coalition government that was put together after two elections earlier this year.
"People know that this government means Greece's last chance," the prime minister was quoted as saying. "We will make it. If we fail, chaos awaits us."

Out for a walk on a hot day. The moon and the clouds conspired to give me the wonderful sky for this shot. Even the pedestrians cooperated by staying at the far end. I love night photography as the camera can see things that the naked eye cannot. I also like unusual perspectives, and this one combined both.
