ROK-Chapter FiveChapter FiveIt was about midday before the cub finally parted for home. Kosta said his goodbyes and headed in the direction of one of his favorite viewing points, a high rocky ledge that looked over the surrounding areas. Kosta sat by himself as he stared out at the territory scanning for any possible signs of danger. Behind him landed the emerald feline, slightly out of breath from trying to stay absolutely silent as she followed him and the cub all day. Kosta's ears perked at the sound of her landing and without him even turning his head to see who it was he greeted her. "Greetings winged one, and how may I be of service to you?" he asked with little emotion to her.She was surprised that he knew it was her but the lack of emotion he showed bothered her. It was true that all she showed him was anger and possibly fear but for him to treat her as nothing killed her deep inside. She narrowed her eyes at him as she stood there. "Is there anything that you wished of me?" he asked again.
ROK-Chapter FourChapter FourPerched high in a tree, the emerald feline kept her eyes on Kosta's cave just waiting for him to emerge. She hoped to speak with him more and maybe find out more about him and what he was doing in a place like this. Her tail lightly brushed against the smooth white bark of the birch tree and her claws dug in with anticipation as she caught a glimmer of blue fur move towards the entrance. She shifted her weight and stretched out her wings as she prepared to glide down to him.Upon finding his cave empty when he awoke, Kosta slowly crawled off his bed of leaves and made his way over to the entrance of the cave. His eyes were heavy with sleep and his movements greatly reflected the tiredness that he felt. As he finally made his way over to the entrance his knees suddenly buckled under him in protest of the lack of energy. The massive feline fell to the ground. His eyes shut as all he wanted to do was go back to sleep, but somewhere in the back of his mind was a voice that fou
ROK-Chapter ThreeChapter ThreeKosta's eyes slowly faded back to normal as he stared in the direction the dark feline had departed. His chest heaved with every deep breath he took to try and calm himself. Slowly the aura faded and his fur settled itself back in place. The blue feline turned his head in the direction the female had been shoved to and cautiously approached her. Deep crimson blood matted down her fur in the areas the dark feline had attacked her. She moved very little and at one point Kosta even thought her to be dead. He lowered his head down to her and gently nudged the side of her neck. When she made no sudden movement, Kosta struggled to get her onto his back.After adjusting her weight several times to make sure she wouldn't fall from his back, Kosta carefully made his way back to his cave and deposited her gently in a mound of soft leaves and grasses. The emerald feline twitched slightly but remained asleep. Kosta smiled slightly at the sight of her but then turned his back to her a
ROK-Chapter TwoChapter TwoThe next few days weren't very eventful. Kosta would wake up early morning and would exit his cave to do his daily scouting. Usually the forest and fields would have very little activity but occasionally Kosta would come across a lost cub or a pair of fighting animals and would resolve the problem. He didn't encounter the other feline at all during those days and surprisingly enough he secretly wished he could see her again. Kosta shook his head swiftly at the thought of her as he sat down on a fallen log. His eyes stared out blankly as he watched the sun rise. Pinks and reds tinted the clouds and stretched out across the sky slowly as the sun made its way over the distant mountain range. Kosta yawned sleepily and closed his eyes as he did so. As he opened his eyes he found himself staring into a pair of bright blue ones. Kosta nearly tumbled backwards, but caught himself before he could fall off.Shock left Kosta speechless as the emerald feline sat herself before him, win
Rise of Kosta Chapter OneChapter 1Sun danced lightly on cerulean fur as Kosta trotted proudly through his recently assigned territory. His eyes scanned the area for any possible signs of danger but upon finding none the large feline continued on with his scouting. Kosta was an interesting sort of creature. The feline stood about 5' from paw to ear tip and was an impressive 6' from nose to tail tip. Two large saber teeth protruded down from his upper jaw and the points came down a little higher then the bottom of his chin. The feline marched proudly. His cream colored chest fur and mane rustled in the breeze as he entered the fields. So far he hadn't seen many creatures since being released from training, but he had a strong feeling he'd encounter one sooner or later.A snapping of twigs suddenly brought his attention to a large tree standing solo in the center of the field. Curious he cautiously approached it. Kosta's emerald eyes scanned through the leaves, but saw nothing unusual, that is until a set of bri

I know quite little about complex SH-installations but as we've got it explained there is apparently a Sharepoint-internal set of goups and users. Se this for example: http://www.alexbruett.net/?p=158 More info here: http://zimmergren.net/technical/sharepoints-hidden-user-list-user-information-list I'll try to dig into how they might be implemented and see if I could build a connector towards those as well. I guess though that the architecture would set some limitations here since I can not connect two competing Authorities to one SH-connector. / Johan 2012/10/23 Karl Wright <email@example.com> > > Hi Johan, > > As far as I know, there are no SharePoint users and groups that exist > outside of Active Directory.

Perfect hair Day (PhD) Night Cap Overnight Perfector
Truly Magial
Posted by Britt Owl on July 08, 2016 This is truly a remarkable product. It melts right into my hair without a trace of residue. I've used multiple (mostly silicone laden) products lately to try and smooth my frizzy hair. Last year I got a couple of keratin straightening treatments out of desperation and they absolutely ruined my hair leaving it dry and straw-like. I was beginning to think my hair would never fully recover until I discovered this overnight treatment. Firstly the minute you apply it...it's gone! Sinks right in without any residue or "wet" feeling to the hair. I then put my hair up in a high pony tail and went to bed. I expected to wake up with my hair lank with product or crimped from putting a lotion in it then lying down. My hair was PERFECT! I fluffed it at the roots, brushed the ends, applied a tiny amount of the No Frizz nourishing oil (got a free sample with this order) and I was out the door. I am sold on this line, the items are pricey for my budget but in the long run if I don't have to curl or straighten daily or resort to damaging straightening treatments then I am happy to work the price of these into my budget.
Perfect hair Day (PhD) Night Cap Overnight Perfector
Posted by Lea on July 05, 2016 The best.I have naturally very wavy hair.natural color except just the very tips where an ombre is growing out.I used on damp hair after washing and light conditioning.noticed right away my hair was smoother.the nexy day, I applied a little more and my hair was almost straight without any heat.i never blow dry, straighten only when meeded due to it takes forever and is sooo bad for your hair.I was so impressed, my flat iron was barely needed to make it straight. On day e still straight however, could never fo any longer due to I do have an oily scalp. Will be buying a full size.this was my first experience with living proof and will be trying the full line in the future. TRY YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY
Perfect hair Day (PhD) Fresh Cut Split End Mender
Posted by Tracey on July 05, 2016 I have frizzy, "pre-menapause" hair with lots of split ends. I cannot believe the difference after just one use. It smells incredible and you don't need much at all. My ends look like I just came out of the salon. I will never go without this and I am totally addicted to Living Proof products. You will not be disappointed with this product!
No Frizz Nourishing Oil
Great Product!
Posted by JudyH on June 16, 2016 I am fairly new to the Living Proof products. I received this oil as a sample with a recent order and absolutely love it. I love every product I try! I started with the dry shampoo and was instantly hooked. The Nightcap that came with it was so nice, I decided to just go ahead and try the shampoo and conditioner. I'm using the Timeless products and love it! Next purchase is this oil for sure. Just a couple drops are all I need after styling my hair to leave it shiny and silky and manageable. It makes my hair look so very healthy. No oily residue or weighed down appearance.
Perfect hair Day (PhD) Dry Shampoo
Great! Not enough product though
Posted by Lauren on June 15, 2016 The product itself is great. Using it I have been able to stretch my shampoo days to three times a week! Which is pretty good for my long and oily hair. Only downside is the amount of product that you have in each bottle. I bought the full size one, and using it about twice a week I have only gotten about 5 weeks use! Which is a double bummer after they make you fall in love with the product so you know you will be buying it again :) Makes is inconvenient and expensive, especially if you are using it more per week that I even was. I recommend it, though, to anyone who is on that tireless pursuit of a dry shampoo that actually works like I was!

George Strait's Father Dies
George Strait's father has died. John Byron Strait was living in Pearsall, Texas, the singer's hometown, but had spent the last month in the hospital before he passed away Tuesday morning (June 4).
George Strait's father has died. John Byron Strait was living in Pearsall, Texas, the singer's hometown, but had spent the last month in the hospital before he passed away Tuesday morning (June 4).
George Strait has dethroned himself! The King of Country just wrapped the 2013 leg of his two-year, Cowboy Rides Away final tour, which is expected to close in 2014.
The 2013 CMT Music Awards will be a big night in country music, boasting a terrific lineup of fan-favorite acts, including the King himself. Recently added to the mix are George Strait, Keith Urban and Lady Antebellum, making this evening a truly entertaining country music party.
It was the wildest show behind bars, and George Strait was in the thick of it for one year in the early '80s. He wasn't the only one. Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Tom T. Hall … they all did time behind the walls of the Huntsville Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
Every day is a good day to be George Strait, but now the superstar has more cause to celebrate his illustrious career than usual. Strait ignited 60 for 60 campaign, pushing to clinch his 60th No. 1 hit before his 61st birthday, which he celebrated over the weekend. The iconic country star hit his goal -- and his fellow country artists couldn't be happier for him.
George Strait is getting set to wrap up the 2013 leg of his two-year farewell tour in his home town of San Antonio, but he'll be back next year -- and 'warns' fans to expect the unexpected.
King of Country George Strait just released his new album, 'Love Is Everything,' with the same goal in mind that he's always had -- to top himself.
George Strait steps back in time for his newest release, 'Love Is Everything.' In the past, the singer always found a way to add a touch of contemporary to his traditional sound. There's nothing to separate this from albums he made throughout the '80s and '90s, but that's not necessarily a criticism.
Mega superstars Garth Brooks and George Strait gave a once-in-a-lifetime performance at the 2013 ACMs on Sunday night (April 7), singing together for the first time ever in tribute to Dick Clark.
Superstars George Strait and Garth Brooks will pay tribute to iconic music business figure Dick Clark in a special performance at the 2013 Academy of Country Music Awards.
The release date and title for George Strait's hotly-anticipated new album have been confirmed. The legendary singer's management announced via Twitter on Sunday (March 17) that he will release 'Love Is Everything' on May 14. Incredibly, it is Strait's 40th studio album.
George Strait is going out with a bang. The singer, who is retiring from active touring after he wraps the Cowboy Rides Away Tour, sold out another show at a seriously rapid clip. The gig at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, scheduled for June 1, sold out in six minutes, moving 72,000 tickets. Demand for Strait remains sky high!

In the Wood Duck world, courtship starts in mid-September when the adult males have acquired their full, and very ornate, colorful breeding plumage. Small groups of Wood Ducks, more males than females, begin to gather together with several males swimming around one female – heads tucked down against their bodies, combined with other displays intended to establish a dominance hierarchy among the males, the most dominant males are the first to closely approach the females. This display lasts for about 20 minutes taking place early morning or late afternoon and most of the females are paired up by mid-winter.
My boy here is doing something called the "Bill Jerk" (stay with me, I'm serious) –rapidly flicking his bill up exposing the white under his chin, this display is usually given as a greeting between paired Wood Ducks. The paired male and his mate will avoid the boisterous display antics of those un-attached Wood Ducks but do display for each other when they have been temporarily parted. How nice, ah?

MIAMI -- Mike Miller was cast in a new role in his first game with the Miami Heat after recovering from thumb surgery: emergency sharpshooter.
Miller made his debut in the Heat's game Monday night against the visiting Dallas Mavericks, coming off the bench, even though coach Erik Spoelstra said he probably wouldn't use the veteran swingman unless it was absolutely necessary.
After missing the first two months of the season, Miller had one final hurdle to clear before he was added to the Heat's active roster. Spoelstra met with team president Pat Riley before Monday's game to determine if Miller would be available. Miller, who is about a month ahead of schedule in his return from Oct. 22 right-thumb surgery, was hoping to see his first regular-season action with the Heat.
"We probably won't play him tonight," Spoelstra said 90 minutes before tipoff of Monday's game against the Mavericks. "If the situation calls for it, I may throw him in there. But the plan is still to go ahead with our practice, give him a workout tomorrow."
Apparently the situation did call for it in the second quarter as Miller checked in for James Jones. Miller went 0 for 4 in the first half.
Miller was added to the active roster, in part, as insurance in case reserve guard Mario Chalmers was unable to play due to a illness. Miller was cleared to return to practice last week, and Spoelstra said the injury is healed. But the team remains cautious because Miller has not taken much contact on the thumb. The Heat (21-8) also have won 12 consecutive games since their 9-8 start, and have settled on a rotation.
Spoelstra said that when the sharpshooter did get in a game, he would be methodically worked into the rotation.
"Obviously, I want to play, but I understand the bigger picture," Miller said. "There will have to be sacrifices made, and maybe it'll have to be me. I think they just want to make sure I'm comfortable taking hits. That's going to be a big part of it. One more practice isn't going to hurt anything."
Miller traveled with the team during its weekend trip to New York and Washington, and worked out extensively during the team's morning workouts. Miller sustained the injury Oct. 20 in a preseason practice while guarding LeBron James during a defensive drill. Miller's right hand got caught in James' jersey.
"It's very encouraging," James said Monday. "Not only for us, but for him personally. I know he's been really excited to try to get back healthy and get back playing with this team. We've been waiting for him."
Miller has been fitted with a special brace designed to limit the impact of blows to his right shooting hand. But Miller said there is still some discomfort when he catches passes and dribbles aggressively to the basket.
Jones, a reserve, has filled in for Miller and ranks 15th in the league in 3-point shooting at 44.5 percent. Backup point guard Chalmers, who is also getting minutes that might otherwise go to Miller, has also played well in recent weeks.
But Miller is expected to have a significant impact on the Heat, who signed him to a five-year, $29 million contract in free agency after they secured long-term deals with James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. Miller's shooting, playmaking ability and rebounding are expected to make his transition into the rotation relatively seamless.
"He is suiting up tonight, and he's excited about that," Spoelstra said. "He was surprised when we had his jersey laid out for him in his locker."

Numerous approaches have been proposed to address the overwhelming modeling problems that result from the emergence of magnetic coupling as a dominant performance factor for ICs and packaging. Firstly, model order reduction (MOR) methods have been extended to robustly capture very high frequency behaviors for large RLC systems via methods such as PRIMA with guaranteed passivity. In addition, new models of the magnetic couplings in terms of susceptance (inverse of inductance) have shown great promise for robust sparsification of otherwise intractable inductance coupling-matrix problems. However, model order reduction via PRIMA for circuits that include susceptance elements does not guarantee passivity. Moreover, susceptance elements are incompatible with the path tracing algorithms that provide the fundamental runtime efficiency of RICE. In this paper, a novel MOR algorithm, SMOR, is proposed as an extension of ENOR which exploits the matrix properties of susceptance-based circuits for runtime efficiency, and provides for a numerically stable, provably passive MOR using a new orthonormalization strategy.

Vilma Silveira Farrell's Profile
My name is Vilma Silveira Farrell and I live in New York City. I was a journalist in Brazil for many years but I am now a stay-at-home-mom and the artisan behind Lampada. I handcraft lampshades and home decor with recycled coffee filters. Have you ever seen used coffee filters become a beautiful piece of art?
Rather than putting a pen to paper to write a story, I put on my artisan's hat and dive into the stains of the coffee and ideas that make each of my pieces an "earth friendly" original work of art.
My inspiration comes from Brazil, land of dark coffee, rich spices and muita alegria.

Pat Neshek: the blog
class=img_thumbleft>We learned yesterday that Twins bullpen phenom Pat Neshek is indeed human as he allowed his first run in the big leagues, ballooning his era to 1.08. And I fear he may become a lot more human in the coming weeks as hitters adjust to his funky sidearm delivery.
But now we discover that Neshek, like an alarming 12-million Americans, has a blog. It's regularly updated, if somewhat haphazardly written. The main purpose of it seems to be chronicling his experiences with autograph seekers. Which seems kind of odd but he does deliver this genius nugget.
One grapher was awesome and hooked me up with a signed Rob Zombie album cover, I was pumped to get a metal autograph so I hooked him up with a couple MLB balls during BP.
And then there's Neshek's correction of a recent Sid Hartman column that wrongly identified him as single. (To be fair Charley Walter appears to have scooped us on this one.)
I needed to clear something up really quick that I just found in a paper saying that I am single. In Sid Hartman's column today it read this "Being single and only 25 and a baseball star in his hometown, you would think he would hear from some of the young ladies. But he said he hasn't received any proposals."
I don't know why it was printed saying I was. I am NOT SINGLE, sorry ladies! I'm very much in love with Stephanee and we have been together nearly three years (for those who are new to the site.) Sid's question to me was about mail and if I have received any marriage proposals. I laughed at his question and said no! I guess I'll have to start making it clear that I am taken!

Also, can you change it or at least have the option that when you go to a dashboard, first page that it shows is not yesterday stats, but Today's stats? I have to change it every single time when I check the stats.

I bought 2 of the large sinks for our new master bath. They were beautiful when they arrived. After installation, I noticed that the copper showed around the stopper some. Then in a couple of days I noticed a spot that seemed to have something spilt on it and eaten away the nickel. More spots came and then on the other sink. I finally was able to determine that they were showing up after we brushed our teeth. Whitening toothpaste! I ordered us natural non-whitening and the spotting has stopped. Would love to be able to get a liquid nickel to touch the spots up because they were beautiful to start with.
BEAUTIFUL SINK!!! Sadly I had to return as it did not work for my small vanity, so I returned it and bought the oval one with same finish as it was the perfect sink and better fit. I absolutely love the finish on this sink, Ive read a lot about have to take care of it and use non abrasive cleaning products on it so thats the plan as it is stunning! Overstock was excellent in handling the return for this item!
Hoping the finish holds up. Originally ordered the small, which was far too small for a bathroom. The medium is the perfect size, and looks great w/our stone.

Inspired by the criminal mugshots taken in Australia during the 1920s, Canadian artist Jason Mark took some of Batman's greatest foes and reimagined them taking similar headshots.
Titled 'The Usual Suspects', the series features popular villains such as 'The Joker', 'The Penguin', 'Two-Face' and 'Mr Freeze' looking incredibly well-dressed for their criminal mugshots.

I'd been looking forward to Ricky Gervais hosting the Golden Globes ever since he showed up on the Emmys: He did a sensational bit about how what would be considered average good looks in the movies pass for handsome on television. The thought of him at the helm of an entire awards show was irresistible.
But at the start of the Globes, as he complained about seeing all the glory of creating The Office go to NBC's Steve Carrell – then upped the ante by suggesting the American version has jumped the shark – a viewer might have realized how tough it is to tell when Gervais actually is joking. I suddenly worried that his faint air of damp anxiety might turn out in this situation to be genuine flop sweat.
Gervais's often discomfiting humor – the fatuous smile, the darting eyes, the giggle, the tinily precise, perfect digs at others and, yes, at himself – operates on the tricky notion that you'll like him most when he's most unlikable. Yet here he was in a room of stars dressed to the nines, with grand projects to promote and wearing ribbons in support of Haiti.
It was as if the ugliest, whiniest mutt in the shelter thought it had a chance of being loved.
On those stiffly uncompromising terms, Gervais managed to be very funny, although whenever he came to the podium the Globes suddenly turned into the Gervaisees – the man's own special show on his own special planet. Not a bad thing, necessarily. Three favorite moments:
His opener was an extended riff mocking stars' inflated sense of importance to ordinary people: "You can be in the third world, and you get a glimpse of a Hollywood star, and it makes you feel better. You can be a little child, a little Asian child, with no possessions, and no money, and you see a picture of Angelina Jolie and you think, 'Mummy!'"

easy but nice puzzle
Everybody chill out, it is Sunday and there is no need to strain the brain.
nice for a usual ez sunday:)
double check is always nice
good one indeed.
tech problem 0042500 has the same theme but this is the last part the first or how to get at this position only 36% passed. I just had this problem a couple days before and failed with 1/2
okay but I still am working on yesterday's puzzle!
easy peasy lemon squeezy
For me it was tough for a Sunday puzzle. White Queen is vulnerable; threatened by black queen. So the whole point is to use double check to clear black's h-pawn. Then return the knight to shield the Queen at h5.
I wanted to move 2.Bg8+, expecting black to capture the Bishop with a rook, then3. Nf7#, But Black wouldn't capture the bishop with the rook. Capturing with the Knight, he would be able to interpose the knight at h6. And moving Kh8 would also completely destroy white's attack.(2. Bg8+ Kh8, 3. Nf7+ Kxg8, 4. Qh8+ Kxf7.)
Like it.
very easy
I thought sunday puzzles are supposed to be hard, because people have nothing better to do?
Still, it's a very nice mate and I'd be proud to have it one of my games. :)

Dearly, Departed
Dearly, Departed
A Zombie Novel
Del Rey, Hardcover, 9780345523310, 480pp.
Publication Date: October 18, 2011
Love can never die.
Love conquers all, so they say. But can Cupid's arrow pierce the hearts of the living and the dead—or rather, the undead? Can a proper young Victorian lady find true love in the arms of a dashing zombie?
The year is 2195. The place is New Victoria—a high-tech nation modeled on the manners, mores, and fashions of an antique era. A teenager in high society, Nora Dearly is far more interested in military history and her country's political unrest than in tea parties and debutante balls. But after her beloved parents die, Nora is left at the mercy of her domineering aunt, a social-climbing spendthrift who has squandered the family fortune and now plans to marry her niece off for money. For Nora, no fate could be more horrible—until she's nearly kidnapped by an army of walking corpses.
But fate is just getting started with Nora. Catapulted from her world of drawing-room civility, she's suddenly gunning down ravenous zombies alongside mysterious black-clad commandos and confronting "The Laz," a fatal virus that raises the dead—and hell along with them. Hardly ideal circumstances. Then Nora meets Bram Griswold, a young soldier who is brave, handsome, noble . . . and dead. But as is the case with the rest of his special undead unit, luck and modern science have enabled Bram to hold on to his mind, his manners, and his body parts. And when his bond of trust with Nora turns to tenderness, there's no turning back. Eventually, they know, the disease will win, separating the star-crossed lovers forever. But until then, beating or not, their hearts will have what they desire.
In Dearly, Departed, romance meets walking-dead thriller, spawning a madly imaginative novel of rip-roaring adventure, spine-tingling suspense, and macabre comedy that forever redefines the concept of undying love.
Lia Habel is in her twenties and lives in western New York State. She is fascinated by zombie movies and Victoriana, interests that eventually led her to write Dearly, Departed. When she first got an agent, she was literally opening envelopes for a living. By the time the auction for Dearly, Departed was held, she was considering food stamps. Now that she has a book contract, she is busy working on the follow-up to Dearly, Departed, entitled Dearly, Beloved. Lia Habel can be found on Facebook and Myspace, and she has a blog at liahabel.com.

94 reviews | 4.1 out of 5
I love this great Gateway Computer (manufactured by Acer -- they're great) with Windows 8. There's excellent customer support with Acer for this Gateway product especially with the Warranty after you register your product. Windows 8 is so bright and colorful and it's so easy to learn and personalize. No problems with this product! I highly recommend it. It functions perfectly and for the very affordable price I just can't believe how happy I am with it. It even has a "Refresh Computer" function that will take it back to its original state (like when it was first purchased) and getting rid of any software that has come or gone yet saving personal files (it's like "Restore" only more thorough in case you need to use it -- it also has "Restore to an earlier time" of course). Great Processor -- Great Price. Unbeatable. Lovin' Windows 8. It's so much better and upgraded from Windows XP, etc. And, it has 6 GB Memory and room to add up to 8 GB if you want. Runs very fast. Love it.
This desktop computer is a good value for the price. Model SX2110G-UW23 does not have built-in WLAN, so therefore you will need to purchase a USB wireless adapter if you want WiFi. Cost is an additional $15 to $30.
First let me start by saying that I am by no means a techie. I struggle with "new" technology and past new Windows products. Heck I even returned my touch screen cell phone because I hated it, could never really figure it out and it was always too darn small to read.
Now with that said, I was VERY apprehensive about getting this computer because of the reviews here on WallyWorld.com. But I figured "what the heck, how hard can it be"? So, I threw caution into the wind and jumped in feet first. I knew the hardware was good 6 Megs Ram, half TB hard drive good Pentium processor...all in all...good value for the $$!
So, lemme say...this Windows 8 thing is not bad @ all ! If you pay attention,...Windows prompts you to do what you're looking for. For example,...if you hover your mouse up/down in the right hand corner...there's your home screen. Hover mouse in upper/lower left hand of screen...brings you back to your tiles...which by the way are customizable.
Granted,...a small learning curve but U can't mess up. If you click on different stuff/tiles you can't mess things up or get lost....just go back and hover!!
People, If I can do this,...so can you. For those stalwarts who can't handle the change (and believe me I get it) Microsoft has just recently released Windows 8.1 which "gets U back" to that "old" Windows look...but U already have it here in this P.C. now; just play around a little...U just may have fun. Don't get frustrated and angry....Relax,...U can't mess up !
Good Luck and Happy Computing ! :)
This computer serves my needs perfectly, its fast. The only realproblem was some of the Amd chip drivers need to be updated before you could really use it.
As a very basic computer user, this Gateway more than meets my needs. It was a challenge to go from Windows XP on my 6 year old E Machine (also bought at Walmart in 2008 for $300) to Windows 8. This was at my local store for $300 but got it online for $250, delivered in 3 days to my door. Came with a keyboard although I did not need it nor did I need a monitor. Very pleased so far!
Fast...great quality, great price, still trying to learn Windows 8, can't go wrong with a gateway
I just bought this computer to replace one that just died. If I have more than 1 window open it will stop operating for as much as 2 minutes, when transferring files I have trouble accessing webpages. Streaming video files stop and load, last computer streaming meant streaming. Extremely disappointed in this product, very surprised Gateway put their name on it.
Bit difficult for 75 year old to learn windows 8. But shes figuring it out. Computer is smaller which is nice. On button well lit. Overall very happy.
I like the computer but it is missing some of the programs I enjoyed. I would have liked it better with windows 7. Windows 8 gets complicated and does not work with some of the games used on windows 7. Apps cause problems and explorer 11 doesn't work well at all. The computer it's self works well and has good download speed with cable. HDMI worked for a few days and it was necessary to download windows 8.1 as an upgrade. Apps still did not work well.
Easy to setup, upgraded from windows XP. Purchased 2 thanks Walmart for a great price on a great computer.
Excellent computer, windows 8 works really well here for my needs, use the computer with ham radio gear and meets all my expectations, fairly easy to use the operating system and plan on buying another gateway tower just like this one in the future. great product. Michael / S.E. Illinois
We bought 4 of these at Walmart for monitoring surveillance cameras, doing Quickbooks, running Netflix on a TV. Within days, the TV computer was having graphics card problems. We could see the Windows 8 Start page burned in behind the Netflix screen. It was also very choppy - even for Netflix on a 30Mb cable connection. The Quickbooks computer failed after a month (out of Walmart's 15-day warranty). One day it booted into the Gateway screen, saying "Preparing Automatic Repair" where it has remained since. That one has to get shipped to Acer's repair facility (at our expense). Hopefully, it will get better with a new hard drive.
No problems setting it up. Windows 8 is a little strange getting used to, but things are getting better. The white On/Off and drive activity LEDs are extremely bright and a little annoying at night. Used for surfing, home financial, word processing and spreadsheets.
the tower is good just do not like windows we had windows xp it was great and easy to use
Worse I ever had. Extremely slow. Programs froze when loafing. Returned day after receivef.
Good for browsing the web, watching movies - don't expect to play fast action games. Did do the free upgrade to 8.1 and is still going to take some getting use to, quite a bit different than windows 7.
This is a really neat computer with Windows 8. With 6 GB of Ram and 64 bit operating system, it is fast and again the price can't be beat.
Very easy to set up. Like the smaller size and performs well.
Generaly pleased with the computer it needs much better set up instructions. Them built in help is awkward to find and use. Microsoft Windows 8 has been over hyped and has the usual Microsoft blindness to users prewferences, I hate Win 8. The mounting of the DVD in its side is much more awkward than the usualo flat mountingt. Small discs for mounting drivers keep falliing out! Mikerosoft does try too hard to forse the user to use their browser and worried more about appearance than ease of use whe designing the interface, it stinks.
excellent product. I recommend

State officials' screwup leads to violent sex offender being dropped off on Mpls street corner
In April, 23-year-old Raymond Traylor arrived at the Minnesota Security Hospital in St. Peter. His arrival there was the result of an emergency transfer from a regional treatment center in Anoka, where he bit two staff members, groped female employees, and started fights with other patients.
When he arrived in St. Peter, a doctor, citing "his extreme aggression," asked for court permission to treat him with "as many medications as possible," and two weeks later was given permission to administer electroshock.
SEE ALSO: Dayton signs law to move mentally ill offenders out of jail quicker
Four months later, Traylor is free. The reason? According to a Star Tribune report, state officials simply missed a deadline to file his 60-day progress report, which resulted in Traylor being unceremoniously dropped off at a Minneapolis street corner nearby the Salvation Army's Harbor Light Center for homeless men and women.
As you'd expect, Hennepin County officials aren't thrilled by this news. The county attorney's office released a statement saying that Traylor "poses a danger not only to the public but also to himself... Four months into what would have been a six-month, potentially renewable, commitment, Mr. Traylor is again on the streets of Minneapolis because someone did not do their job."
A perusal of Traylor's criminal record reveals a laundry list of convictions for assault, trespassing, and drug and sex crimes, some of which occurred while he was a juvenile.
Despite the fact he was trespassed from the property just months ago, he was allowed to stay at the Harbor Lights Center after officials there learned he'd been literally dropped off at a corner with nowhere to go.
The Strib managed to interview Traylor last week. Reporter Paul McEnroe writes that he appeared "stable and coherent."
"I wasn't afraid when they dropped me off, but I did feel like I was vulnerable... they dropped me with my two bags, around the corner, and wished me good luck," Traylor said. "I've been trying to get help all week."
State officials acknowledge a screwup culminated in Traylor's release, but insist, despite all the evidence, that he doesn't post a threat.
The progress report "shouldn't have fallen between the cracks, and as a result it didn't get on the court calendar," Anne Barry, deputy commissioner of the Human Services Department, told the Strib, adding that Traylor's case is unique in her experience.
But "if we thought there was a risk, if he was dangerous, we would've asked that he be recommitted," Barry continued.
