iBUYPOWER Defines Next-Gen PC Gaming With the New Revolt
Elevate above the ordinary; iBUYPOWER is proud to be ushering in a new era of PC gaming lifestyle. Announcing a revolutionary new gaming experience: the Revolt. Designed to combat the stale black and beige box image of desktop PCs, the Revolt combines radical chassis design and re-engineered internal components to create the most exciting PC gaming experience in existence.
"We didn't look to the industry for inspiration when we were developing Revolt. What we looked for was the burning question of, what would we like to have on our own desks? We wanted to shake up the industry and make something beautiful. This is what Revolt is," said Darren Su, Co-Founder and VP of iBUYPOWER.
The Revolt is designed from the ground up to be the system you want to show off. Despite its unassuming size, there's nothing unassuming about it. Exclusively powered by the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics and the fastest Intel CPUs available, Revolt propels effortlessly through the most demanding games.
"iBUYPOWER is a leader in system innovation and we are thrilled to see our GeForce GPUs used in a truly unique gaming product like iBUYPOWER's Revolt," said Scott Herkelman, general manager of the GeForce business unit at NVIDIA."
Key advancements in system design include liquid cooling, compact and efficient power supply, advance component support and layout.
Designing from the ground up was just the beginning. The Revolt introduces a radically new overall design, focusing on both jaw dropping design on its exterior and interior. As sleek and clean as it is on the exterior, Revolt is equally well designed on the interior. iBUYPOWER throws out the old, and brings forward an integrated lighting system and aggressive chassis design to add an edge to the most hardened PC gaming bunkers. The Revolt's atmospheric lighting system is customizable in color and in mode, so gamers will have a blast integrating it into their lifestyle.
Efficient cooling design. True to iBUYPOWER's gaming and enthusiast roots, Revolt was designed with overclocking as a key design spec. The Revolt's cooling profile remains superior to many full-size desktops, thanks to a highly efficient design - all key performance components are cooled through specific airflow channels. The chassis structure also minimizes noise generation from excess fans common in standard gaming desktops. To maximize CPU overclocking ability, Revolt is liquid cooled with a full-size 140 mm radiator.
Elevate to a truly custom system. The Revolt demonstrates improvements beyond a custom chassis and layout. While still fitting most standardized components for future user upgrades, the Revolt includes a number of customized internal components designed to maximize usability, stability, and overclockability. The mini-iTX motherboard and internal peripherals are specially designed to enhance the functionality of the system, with user-installable upgrades and overclocking features.
Power up. The Revolt is powered internally through a redesigned server-class power supply. This server-based approach puts efficiency, reliability, and true power output at the forefront, opposing the cost-cutting and relabeling common in many consumer power supplies. The Revolt's power supply is made with advanced materials to enhance efficiency thereby reducing heat output and improving its cooling characteristics.
The Revolt is available for pre-order and will be shipping in February 2013.

Urijah Faber and Dominick Cruz at WEC 26 weigh-ins
Dominick Cruz has been dealing with a nagging hand injury that needs surgery to correct, but he'd put off the procedure to coach "The Ultimate Fighter."
Prior to his WEC 53 title defense against Scott Jorgensen, Cruz told MMAWeekly.com, "I'll probably be out for at least four to six months. The type of work they need to do to my hand, that's what they told me, but I'm a quick recovery type of guy so I'm going to go ahead and say four months."
"I work for the UFC basically now, the WEC before, and I pretty much do what I'm told. But at the same time, I've been going into these last two fights with a hand injury that needs to be addressed so that I can continue to fight at the level that I'm fighting because it's just something that's going to get worse if I don't get it taken care of," said the bantamweight titleholder during the WEC 53 post-fight press conference.
"I'll know by Monday. I'm going to talk to my camp, talk to whoever I need to talk to at the UFC/WEC and get my hand checked out."
With the WEC folding over into the UFC, opportunity comes with the transition for several WEC stars, and Cruz would be willing to put off surgery if the right situation presented itself, like coaching "The Ultimate Fighter."
Speculation has swirled for weeks about who would be named the coaches of the next season of "The Ultimate Fighter."
Urijah Faber handed Cruz his only loss to date and he and the former WEC featherweight titleholder aren't exactly friends. Asked if he'd accept a coaching position on the Spike TV reality show opposite Faber, Cruz said he would.
"I would accept it very much, and I'd be stoked, and it would be awesome because I'd get my loss back. With an opportunity like that I might have to deal with the hand again," stated Cruz. "I'll get my hand checked out and I'll take it stride by stride, talk to my camp, coaches. They want what's best for me, and I want what's best for the longevity of my career as well."
Faber submitted Cruz back in 2007 in a featherweight match-up at WEC 26 by guillotine choke, and the newly crowned UFC bantamweight champion believes they're different fighters now and wants nothing more than to avenge that loss.
"It's a different fight, completely. He was a better fighter than me that day, but it's been three years, and that was my very first training camp I had with my coach Eric Del Fierro," said Cruz.
"Before that fight I was still working a full-time job. Now I can devote every ounce of energy into fighting to become the best fighter that I can. I have weapons everywhere, and I just know I'm on another level than him."
Faber recently dropped weight classes from featherweight to the 135-pound division and has called for a rematch with the current titleholder.
"He looked good in his last fight. He finished the guy very quickly. But still, he didn't fight somebody that was at the super, top level at 135 at this particular moment," said Cruz of Faber's lone bantamweight performance.
"Some of the things that he's going to improve on is just basically just trying to adjust to my game, and that will be hard for him because it's hard to find people that move as much as I do. But there's certain things that he can do, game plans that he can come up with. Good luck. I don't know what, but I'll be ready."
UFC president Dana White said he'll make a decision on Friday about the next season's coaches. We know it's not going to be Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva, so why not Cruz and Faber?

Man found dead in county jail cell
SANTA ANA – A 31-year-old man died in the county jail Monday afternoon and was found by other inmates, authorities said.
The man was identified as Matthew Shawn Gordon, who had been booked Sunday on multiple drug-related charges, said Lt. Jeff Hallock of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
Inmates at the Men's Central Jail found Gordon unresponsive in the cell after 10 p.m. Monday and immediately notified deputies, he said. Gordon was taken to a nearby hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Sheriff's investigators are waiting for an autopsy to determine a cause of death, but officials have found no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death, Hallock said.
According to arrest records, Gordon was booked Sunday afternoon in lieu of $30,000 bail by Placentia police.
He was arrested on suspicion of possession of narcotics for sale, possession of drug paraphernalia and transportation of narcotics, Hallock said.
As is protocol for in-custody deaths, the District Attorney's Office is investigating.

These are overly heavy/bulky so not a comfy robe! Love the blue color though.

I bought this as a gift for a friend. Got the blue color and the small size. My friend is petite at 5 feet tall and weights about 90 pounds. This robe fit her very well and the length reaches down to her ankles. She says the robe is very comfortable, warm and the presence of pockets is a great addition.

the quality of this organic cotton one-size-fits-all robe is superior in every way. before this purchase I never realized how much better organic cotton felt. the drape and feel of the organic cotton fabric is luxurious. the color is deep and appealing, a richly drenched navy blue color---not a cheap dye job. the robe is very well constructed, comfortable, very, very roomy, with two large pockets, and falls to mid calf on my 5'5" frame. this is not a skimpy, tight fitting robe and must be wrapped and tied on my thin frame which makes it really look like I am wearing a Japanese kimono :-). the sewed on belt is an additional nice touch. overall it is far better than I expected it would be. really perfect for warmer, muggier summer months.

You have plenty of big, fluffy towels to keep you warm when you hit the bathroom's cold tile floor after a shower. But haven't you forgotten something? Staying cozy after you have dried off requires a bathrobe to wear when you really need to warm up. A luxurious bathrobe can be a particularly great addition to your morning or evening shower or simply a soft piece of clothing to wrap up in on a lazy weekend. Still not convinced you need to buy one? Here are five more reasons you'll want to make sure you have a robe in your bathroom. Read More

Wacom Graphire Bluetooth CTE-630BT
- Excellent wireless performance, Great design
- Slight lag, Pricey
Bottom Line
An excellent option for those specifically looking for a wireless tablet. The extra cost over a Graphire 4, however, probably won't justify it for those not interested in using the Bluetooth technology to its full potential.
Price$ 449.00 (AUD)
Specification-wise, Wacom's Graphire Bluetooth CTE-630BT is akin to their wired Graphire 4 range. With similar sensitivity and resolution levels, we found that the performance of the Bluetooth version was comparable with that of the CTE-640, the flagship of the Graphire 4 series. Nevertheless, the CTE-630BT delivered an entirely different experience, based largely on its wireless status.
Physically, the tablet is quite well designed. It's thin, light weight, with a very simplistic and convenient button arrangement. A large, 200mm x 150mm active area sits in the centre, surrounded by an adequately wide bezel. We did find that there wasn't enough room for our hands when trying to fill in details on the far edges of the active area, but on the whole, the balance between size and comfort seems to have been well optimised. A clip on the top edge of the tablet provides a resting place for the stylus; a little inconvenient when the tablet is sitting on a desk, but fine when carrying the tablet around.
The freedom of movement was something we really enjoyed when using this tablet. Without the restriction of cables, we were able to move around while using the tablet or even just simply sit back with it resting easily in our lap. The applications of the wireless technology go further than this however. Imagine a teacher being able to walk around a classroom, writing onto a projected 'blackboard'. The same technology could easily be used in business presentations, allowing for diagrams and images to be created in real time, easily and on-the-fly. The breadth of possibilities opened up by unshackling the tablet from its cabling really adds to this tablet's versatility, in a way that beefed up specifications and pressure levels just can't.
This is not to say that the tablet itself is in any way deficient in its performance, only that it distinguishes itself through other means. The specifications are not at a professional level, but they nevertheless are of an incredibly high caliber. With 512 levels of pressure sensitivity and 2032 lines per inch of resolution, we found that we were able to achieve impressive results, creating detailed and precise drawings. Response times were reasonable, although there was a slight lag, only a few hundred milliseconds at most. One of the best facets of the tablet however was the strength of its signal. In an office jam packed with almost every wireless and Bluetooth device available, we were still able to achieve a strong, clear signal through multiple doors, and it took a very thick, concrete wall before the tablet dropped out completely.
Users who aren't positive that they'd really take advantage of the wireless nature of this tablet probably won't get the best value from it. It is quite expensive, and almost matches the professional Intuos 3 series for pricing. Professionals and casual home users probably won't get the most from this tablet, but those with a keen eye on its wireless applications will find it to be a powerful tool.

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.

text: Teleconferencing and other applications of 3D video have become of increasing interest. Besides stereo display, realistic 3D requires also free viewpoint video (FVV), in order to provide adequate motion parallax. One of the most efficient ways of synthesizing FVV of natural scenes is by image based rendering, based on multiview video. A new approach for multiview coding has been recently proposed, and shows that encoding each macroblock of each frame with appropriate quantization parameters (QPs) improves compression by around 2X. The QPs used to acheive such improvement are tuned according to an adhoc relation to the weights used in the synthetic view.

That's just the pregame show though nigga. Let's talk about the BS pageant. Let's talk about why a nigga got to go all the way down to X Block to see the show even though its bein done in a yard like yard dogs instead of main hall by the big eat? Yall think goin down stairs is no big deal but yall try goin down 20 floors of stairs. That shit ain't fun at all. Then you got to come back up and your legs already feel like you got stabbed in the hamstrings by some pet sematary nigga.
You get down to X Block - yall ever been down there before? - it is creepy as hell. Walls all hot and sweaty. Got weird machines up in the ceiling. Goddamn even main floor in there is creepy as shit. All green lights flickerin and weird symbols on the floor. Ninjaturtles lookin out of visors all haunted like they seen ghosts come out of pipes or somethin and dead old ladies floatin on computer screens. Shit only know what Randy Curdo show them niggas. Creepy old white boy probably got mpegs of shit you cant even do without ghosts.
Goddamn creepy like a old lady crackhead desperate for money. No bitch I am on the phone you cant suck my dick. Aint you friends with my grandma anyway? Damn. The price of bein on the outside, nigga.
So we sit down on the floor down in X block and the floor is hot like a skillet, make your ass sweat so bad you think you shit up your draws. Nigga come out in a robe in a beard, start waving some sort of pole around with gems on it, talkin in latin or what have you. That was alright. Some lights flew around the room. Don't know what sort of clavo shit they pulled to do that.
Then all these niggas come out in weird KKK robes only they was the wrong color. Some niggas of course freaked the fuck out and got put down with sleepy stuns from the ninja turtles. There was some music sound sort of like you take a grinder and put it to some metal. A few drums beating. These niggas all chanting in some weird language. Some big nigga come out and dump ashes all over, put them in weird symbols on the floor.
Yall ever heard of three wise men i mean goddamn. I aint no expert on baby jesus but he would not tolerate this wizard shit yall got goin. Then some dobs niggas came in with this big ol fuckin tank and they just start sprayin sticky shit all over the place. Coverin us up. I thought it was puddin at first, but it was all red and then there was a window on the dobs tank and you could see shit bobbin around it was fuckin hearts. What kind of clavo mess that was I do not know, but I know back in betheltown with the mangers and shit aint no dobs sprayin shit everywhere.
Department of Body Science my ass nigga. Shootin probably blood all over a Christmas pageant. That is not christian at all that is just fucked up malt liquor. Then they was chantin and holdin hands in a circle. Then they brought out some inmates. Look like Mario Brothers Matt, Pussy Ted, and some Z Block nigga look chinese with a weird symbol on his pajamas.

Amnesia Miami Makes Its Grand Return to South Beach Tomorrow
If you haven't figured it out yet, the granddaddy of all South Beach clubs, Amnesia, is back.
The nightclub, which first washed up on our shores in 1993, brought Andre and Gregory Boudou's brand of hedonism to Collins Avenue. But after five years, the space was cleared, making way for others to try to fill the nightlife void -- including Opium Garden and Privé, and more recently Klutch.
Now, though, the South of Fifth spot is making its grand return with a new co-owner, Bob Sinclar -- as in Grammy-award winner Bob "World Hold On" Sinclar.
But times have definitely changed since Amnesia's heyday. South Beach is no longer the rebellious party playground it once was. And Opium Group, for one, was forced to deal with SoFi's growing pains when it was operating out of 136 Collins Avenue. Opium Garden's open courtyard was a huge source of conflict between the area's residents and the nightclub, causing its eventual closure due to constant noise complaints.

But in speaking with Gianfranco Dossena, the director of marketing for Amnesia, it seems the nightclub has grown up as well. At this Friday's opening party, clubgoers will find a new Amnesia, vastly different from the one described in a 1995 New Times article on sex during foam parties.
"There's a roof now," Dossena explained when we inquired about the space's history of noise violations. "It's one big club with a real dance floor with no tables."
That's not to say Amnesia won't cater to the bottle-service clientele. The club features 70 VIP tables spread out over two areas. But the fact that it will also feature an unobstructed dance floor seems like a novel idea these days when dance clubs like SET and LIV make a killing every night despite a lack of space for, you know, dancing.
Dossena describes the venue as "state of the art," which considering its house- and electronic-heavy bookings isn't surprising. And with capacity for 1,700 people in over 26,000 square feet, this could make for a raging old-school SoBe party.
The raging starts tomorrow with co-owner Sinclar and resident DJ Philippe B. Tickets are available for $50 at the door. However, our favorite part of this whole thing might be the NSFW flyer, which seems to promise a crotch-grabbing good time. Let's hope it delivers.

Nice day for white wedding cupcakes
I have now, twice in my life, made over 200 cupcakes at one time. Apparently making 200 cupcakes is a service I offer.
I am not a great baker. I have never claimed to be a great baker. But somehow, I find myself in this place with increasing frequency. Next up: I'll be making 200 cake balls for a wedding in August.
Dear Lord, how is this happening to me?
Oh wait, I know. I am in love with my friends. I am in love with love. I love weddings and all the trappings. And it's the best wedding gift I can give: to relieve them of the headache and cost of wedding cake. So I make 200 cupcakes, frost them and put together a little "smash cake" so they can cut it and possibly smash it into one another's faces, while 200 friends look on.
But there is a secret to my success. And success, I have had. I have now pulled off the 200 cupcake trick twice without a hitch. Want to know the secret? Here it is: cake mix.
That's right, I do not make the cupcakes from scratch. Guess what else: I have it on good authority that this is OK. Even Alton Brown tells us that cake mixes are a gift from the Baby Jesus and not to mess with them. Scratch cakes are not only more difficult, if we are honest, they're usually just not as good. I am sure it's the fault of the maker — i.e. yours truly — but truth be told, I'm hard pressed to remember a time I had a scratch cake that I thought was as good as, let alone superior to, the work of my good friend Betty Crocker.
Now, this is not to say you can't doctor up a cake mix and make it your own. I am a big fan of that process.
Here's how I do white wedding cupcakes: I buy a white cake mix, usually Duncan Hines, and I do the following.
1 box white cake mix
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated white sugar
2/3 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
This will make about 3 dozen cupcakes. Fill the cups 3/4 full and bake them in a preheated oven at 350 F for about 12 minutes, or longer if necessary. (I think my oven cooks hot.)
So that is a really good start. But what makes them truly amazing is the frosting. Cream cheese buttercream frosting in particular is a crowd-pleaser. It's not as greasy and sweet as regular buttercream, but it holds up well to heat and transportation. Also, it's just delicious.
2 blocks cream cheese, room temp
2 sticks butter, room temp
1 1/2 bags powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla or raspberry extract (if you are into that sort of thing)
Add a bit of milk if you think it's too stiff, but I rarely have to.
Blend, frost. I use a big cupcake "gun" to make the work fast and easy and get uniform swirls akin to those atop a soft-serve cone from your favorite drive-in.
Be not afraid, friends. When you are asked to make 200 cupcakes, step forward and say heartily, YES I CAN. You will be amazed at the feeling of accomplishment. Reward yourself by binge watching "Orange is the New Black" for four hours when you're done. Not saying that's what I did — I'm just sayin'.

Applying and adjusting motion presets
Applying and adjusting motion presets
In this movie we will look at adjusting motion presets. Whenever you create a motion preset in Flash, all the information about the motion tween is saved. So when you apply that motion preset to an object, the animation is editable just like any other motion tween. So in this movie we will look at an example of that. If you are following along, go ahead and open up Adjusting.fla from the Chapter 5 folder. You can also just use any symbols for this exercise. I am going to first apply some motion presets to my monster and my shadow here on the Stage. So I'll open the Motion Presets panel and I have some Custom Presets in here that we created in another movie. So I'll select the monster and then select the Bounce Monster preset; click Apply to apply it. I will do the same thing for the Shadow. Click on the shadow, choose the Shadow preset and click Apply.
Now if I test the movie, the animations might not look right because I am animating a different object then I was when I create...

Mexican officials arrest first drug cartel car bomber as gang war turns terrorist
Mexican police arrested the first successful drug cartel car bomber on Thursday. The gang member's attack killed three people in the border city of Ciudad Juarez on June 15.
Fernando Contreras used a cell phone to detontate the bomb that killed a federal police officer and two civilians, said Luis Cardenas Palomino, the regional federal police chief.
Contreras, alias El Dorado, was rewarded for his murderous work by being sent to Chihuahua city - the capital of
the state by the same name - as the leader for La Linea drug gang.
Gang member Fernando Contreras was arrested Thursday for allegedly carrying out the first successful drug cartel car bombing, which killed three people in June
Fernando Contreras Meraz, alias El Dorado, was presented to the press in Mexico City along with thirteen other supposed members of La Linea drug cartel and the weapons allegedly seized from them
His arrest comes as the legislature approved a bill introducing life imprisonment for certain murders
The car bomb exploded after police and paramedics arrived on a street corner to help a wounded man, adding a new dimension of terror in Ciudad Juarez, which has become one of the world's deadliest cities amid a turf war between the Sinaloa and Juarez drug cartels.
Contreras was arrested Wednesday in Chihuahua along with 14 others, several weapons and drugs, the official said.
The arrest was announced the same day that the Chihuahua state legislature approved a bill introducing life imprisonment for certain murders, including the killing of journalists and police.
Those who commit multiple murders or torure their victims before killing them also would get a life sentence under the law.
Gov. Cesar Duarte applauded the initiative. Once he signs it into law, Chihuahua will become the only Mexican state with life imprisonment. Murder in Chihuahua is currently punishable by up to 50 years in prison.
'Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures,' Duarte said. 'Those who want to make a career out of victimizing citizens, innocent people, will never get out of jail.'
More than 2,000 people have been killed this year in Ciudad Juarez, a city of 1.3 million across the border from El Paso, Texas. Most killings are blamed on drug gangs.
Over 28,000 people have died since
Mexican government launched its crackdown on drug cartels in 2006.
Ciudad Juarez, where a gang member detonated a car bomb with his cell phone, is just across the border from El Paso, Texas
Meanwhile, officials continued to burn the 148 tons (134 metric tons) of marijuana seized in the border city of Tijuana. The 15,000 packages - Mexico's biggest pot haul on record - were set ablaze Wednesday.
Authorities announced that one of the 11 men detained during the seizure also confessed to participating in at least eight killings.
Rodolfo Campos Montejo told police he acted as a lookout during the killing of two men who were decapitated and hung by their feet from a bridge last week, according to a statement from the Baja California state attorney general's office. Campos also allegedly said he participated in the assassination of the top state police commander in the town of Rosarito.
134 tons of marijuana seized in Tijuana, Mexico continue to burn. The 15,000 packages - Mexico's biggest pot haul on record - were set ablaze Wednesday
The statement said police suspect Campos served as liaison between local Tijuana gangs and the powerful Sinaloa cartel, which investigators believe owned the seized marijuana.
Police, meanwhile, found the bullet-ridden bodies of seven people in different parts of southern Guerrero state.
Among them was Antonio Valdez, leader of the Institutional Revolutionary Party in the resort city of Acapulco, the state Public Safety Department said in a statement. Valdez and three other men were found dead on the outskirts of the city with a message accusing them of being allied with Edgar Valdez Villarreal, alias 'The Barbie,' a U.S.-born reputed drug lord who was recently captured outside Mexico City.
A follower of captured drug lord Edgar Valdez Villarreal, alias 'The Barbie,' seen here, claims to have kidnapped 20 men
Two other men were gunned down on the highway connecting Acapulco and Mexico City, while the body of another man was found on another highway in Guerrero, the statement said. Police in the town of Huitzuco de los Figueroa also found a human skull with a bullet hole.
There were no suspects in any of the Guerrero killing.
Also in Acapulco, prosecutors said they are investigating whether local police were involved in the kidnapping of 20 men who disappeared while traveling together in the resort city last month.
Guerrero state Attorney General David Augusto Sotelo said prosecutors were investigating the veracity of a video that appeared this week on YouTube, showing a man who identified himself as a policeman and said he and other officers kidnapped the 20 men.
The man, who appeared to be answering questions from an interrogator, claimed he belonged to a cartel led by 'The Barbie.'
The 20 men were visiting Acapulco from the city of Morelia, in neighboring Michoacan state, when they disappeared Sept. 30.
One of their companions reported the kidnapping to police, saying the men were traveling in several cars and looking for accommodations when gunmen kidnapped them. The man said he had gone to the store and when he returned, he found his companions were gone and witnesses told him about the kidnapping.
Guerrero state prosecutors have said that interviews with relatives and background checks indicated the 20 men had no criminal records. Relatives, and the man who went the police, say the men were mostly mechanics from Morelia who had saved up for a vacation together.
In the border city of Nuevo Laredo, the military said five gunmen were killed and three soldiers were wounded during shootouts that created panic among the population Wednesday.
The Defense Department said in a statement Thursday that the gunbattles erupted when soldiers on patrol came under fire, but gave no other details.
Panicked parents pulled their children from schools and factories shut their gates during the shootouts in the city across the border from Laredo, Texas.
Gang members raised several roadblocks in the city, forcing some motorists from their cars to use the vehicles in the blockades.

Too Easy
Very Nice - I looked at a lot of other things before I saw the easy mate in 2.
I feel this one was aptly titled, because at first glance black seemed to have such an upper hand. I started looking for a back rank attack line with my rook aimed at the e5 pawn, but it was a complete dead end. Hmmm. I really must check black on my first move. I looked at my bishop at f6. He could move 1. g7+. Another dead end, BUT it shows that the g7 pawn is pinned, and there's a strong escape for my threatened Queen. And suddenly, the easy sequence opens up to me.
Black must indeed be shocked.
too easy :)

Authorities investigating death of Fort Duchesne man
FORT DUCHESNE, Uintah County — Investigators were waiting Tuesday for results of an autopsy to determine how a man found dead in a trailer park died.
Uintah County sheriff's deputies were called to the the Country Village trailer park about 3:40 p.m. Monday for a welfare check. Inside, they found the body of David Urrutia, 38, of Fort Duchesne.
The sheriff's office was releasing few other details Tuesday. The trailer park is located on U.S. Highway 40, about 11 miles east of Roosevelt.
The Utah Attorney General's Office, the Utah State Crime Lab, the FBI and Uintah County Attorney's Office were all participating in the investigation.
Additional information will be posted as it becomes available.

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand
The Puritanical Prohibition of Polygamy
Exclusive to STR
I got to wondering the other day whether a law is just simply because it is law and why the subjective morality of a few is heaped onto the masses.
We have laws in this country enacted to punish people for and deter them from physically or fiscally harming others, I get that. We also have arbitrary laws passed to apparently indulge the intolerance of the ruling class.
Let me preface this week's edition of the Crying Towel with a bit of a platitude: I support the legalization of polygamy for all Americans, from apostolic Christian to agnostic.
And, while it might not surprise you to hear that Gohs heathen is once again defending the seemingly indefensible, it should shock you that the Bill of Rights is trampled by our politico police and their citizen tyrant toadies every day of the week.
Though it has existed arguably as far back as men and women have felt the need to covet one another, and was practiced by Jews, Muslims, American Indians, Africans, Asians and even some Christians, plural marriage's downfall in these United States began shortly after Latter Day Saint (LDS) prophet, Brigham Young, announced in the mid-1800s that 'the practice,' as it is often called, was a vital part of LDS life. Over the next couple decades, Utah and the U.S. government did all they could to destroy the Mormons by seizing property, disincorporating the church and imprisoning known practitioners of plural marriage. Young's own secretary, George Reynolds, after being found guilty of bigamy and hoping the freedom of religion clause in the U.S. Constitution would release he and his people from state mandated torment, sought relief from the U.S. Supreme Court.
In his opinion on the case, Chief Justice, Morrison Waite, wrote, 'There never has been a time in any State of the Union when polygamy has not been an offense against society.'
According to Waite, it was, 'Impossible to believe that the constitutional guaranty of religious freedom was intended to prohibit legislation in response to this most important feature (marriage) of social life.' Though Waite's willful ignorance demonstrated otherwise, the constitution does not say only certain Christian religious beliefs are protected, it says, 'Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.'
But, by passing laws based on certain sects of Christianity, lawmakers have established a national religion. Waite further stated, 'Polygamy has always been odious among the northern and western nations of Europe, and, until the establishment of the Mormon church, was almost exclusively a feature of the life of Asiatic and of African people.'
Of course, Waite's statement came during a time when only certain white, Christian men enjoyed the full protections and benefits of the constitution. Knowing the brutality and subhuman treatment received by both of the nonwhite, aforementioned peoples, it is most certain that Waite meant merely to further disparage the practice of polygamy.
Waite continued to express his knowledge of all things odious when he wrote that, while American laws, 'Cannot interfere with mere religious belief and opinions, they may with practices.' I dare a modern-day judge to tell the NRA their members deserve only the opinion that they may own guns under the Second Amendment to the Constitution.
I hear the critics of freedom and equality conjuring their asinine arguments in hopes of destroying dissenters. They say, 'But Gohs, polygamy is a breeding ground for child molesters and misogynists.' Unfortunately they are partially correct, predators lurk everywhere, but we already have laws designed to punish pedophiles'as weak as those laws may be. We certainly cannot punish the thousands of those engaged in holy, plural matrimony simply because of a few rotters. To do so would be as silly as calling for prohibition of Catholicism simply because a few addled archbishops knowingly placed pederasts within arms reach of hundreds of young victims.
We must say no to the burning of a witch, the stoning of a heretic and the continued criminalization of civil liberties'Come on kids, just say no to neo-puritanism.
After all, protecting the freedom of those with whom we disagree is the first and most necessary of steps to protecting our own.

Sentences Containing 'fecundity'
And he put it to us in this way--marking the points with a lean forefinger--as we sat and lazily admired his earnestness over this new paradox (as we thought it) and his fecundity.
According to Servius, for the Ambarvalia a "hostia" with the capacity to produce "felicitas" ("fecundity, blessedness") is led around in a ritual circuit three times; the ceremony, he says, is called an "amburbium" when it is the city that is circumambulated.
When compared with domestic populations, it was found that increased food in captive conditions led to higher fecundity, earlier maturation, and lower juvenile mortality.
Representations of female sexuality date back to prehistoric times; there is clear evidence of the depiction of female fecundity in ancient Venus figurines.
In drawing their conclusion they point to the following weaknesses in the Ricroch et al. paper: i) important claims about the "Daphnia magna" study are incorrect (that the amount of toxin in the experiment was not presented), and ii) core results are omitted from the discussion (overall mortality differences and total fecundity).
The blackfish species are very low in fecundity, slow-growing and long lived, and have low migratory tendencies, so are extremely vulnerable to overfishing and localised extinctions.
This reproductive strategy may be linked to the starfish's low fecundity rate and its low population density.
Plaice are determinate spawners in which fecundity is determined before the onset of spawning.

Houston-based U.S. District Judge Vanessa Gilmore set a July 15 date for an injunction hearing, which could result in stopping the smartphone-based companies from operating or give city ordinances a chance to catch up with the technology.
Gilmore said she had some "real concern" about whether the taxi and limousine companies had standing for a temporary restraining order, and added that she was particularly concerned about doing anything that stands in the way of a political process that already is under way.
The city of Houston's Department of Administration and Regulatory Affairs has proposed revisions to the city's ordinances related to vehicles-for-hire that would allow ride-sharing services, such as Uber and Lyft, to operate in Houston.

ISPs should block 'pirate' websites, says European Court of Justice
Advocate General Cruz Villalón hints at the future
THE EUROPEAN COURT OF JUSTICE is deciding whether it is right that an internet service provider (ISP) can be told to block access to a website suspected of playing host to pirated content.
It is due to vote on this soon, and in the meantime ECJ Advocate General Cruz Villalón, a member of the court, said that the ban mechanism was a likely one, but added that it must also be managed and proportionate.
Prompting the announcement was an approach on the Austrian ISP UPC Telekabel Wien from film outfits Constantin Film Verleih and Wega Filmproduktionsgesellschaft.
They wanted a site called Kino dammed off, and their case was knocked up to the ECJ from the Austrian authorities. According to Advocate General (AG) Cruz Villalón, they should get their way.
"[The Advocate General] Takes the view that the internet provider of the user of a website which infringes copyright is also to be regarded as an intermediary whose services are used by a third party - that is the operator of the website - to infringe copyright and therefore also as a person against whom an injunction can be granted," it said in its statement.
"That is apparent from the wording, context, spirit and purpose of the provision of EU law."
The AG said that in some instances it would be just fine for a media company to go direct to an ISP and ask for a shutdown, but added in others a court ruling should be involved.
In the UK ISPs will block access to piracy sites, but only once a court has ordered them to do so. Apparently, and judging by recent evidence, there are a lot of court orders, and they are all adhered to.
A cyber hammer fell on some 20 sites in mid-October and already in November we have seen a handful shut down. µ

TMC, a leading b-to-b media company helping clients build communities, today announced the launch of a special workshop for businesses and service providers investing in or investigating Software Defined Networking (SDN).
The event will be held as a pre-conference workshop on Tuesday, January 29th during TMC's ITEXPO Miami 2013 at the Miami Beach Convention Center. ITEXPO takes place January 30th-February 1st.
"Software-defined networking is considered by many to be one of the most important, and potentially disruptive, developments in networking since the rise of the Internet," said TMC CEO and conference chairman, Rich Tehrani.
"To date, networks and connectivity have come first, and applications have followed. SDN turns this model on its head, approaching networking from an apps-first standpoint," Tehrani explained.
In this SDN pre conference at ITEXPO Miami, attendees will get:
- Detailed overview of SDN
- Examination of the technologies and components involved in SDN
- Summary of the use cases of SDN
- Comparison of the players involved in moving SDN forward
- Expert analysis on what SDN could mean for networking as we know it.
Conference sessions at the SDN Workshop address the definition of and use cases of Software-Defined Networking; how enterprises can leverage SDN to their advantage; the use cases for SDN in service provider and data center applications; and how SDN can be part of an entirely new approach to networking; how SDN can relates to installed networks.
- Software-Defined Networking 101
- The Big Switch to SDN
- SDN in the Enterprise
- The Role of SDN in Network Evolution
- SDN Roundup
Admission to SDN Pre-Conference workshop is included with any paid ITEXPO registration plan, or can be purchased separately on the SDN Workshop site.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.
