Yeah this one was a 5 but it had a 250 gb hd. I don't know much about 360s as I never bought one, but I would think 89.99 for the non white systems is good isn't it?
If it had a 250gb HDD, I'd say so. I didn't know they even made those sizes for the old models - my Elite came with a 120GB one back when I bought it new a few years ago.

With a subject as specific as sex addiction, comparisons to 2011's "Shame" are inevitable. That dark drama was a deep-probe character study, intensely focused on a man consumed by his cravings. By contrast, "Thanks for Sharing" is an ensemble piece juggling humor with sober observation of three men intent on overcoming their dependence on the pleasures of the flesh. Making a technically polished directing debut, screenwriter Stuart Blumberg ("The Kids Are All Right") has in essence crafted the date-night version of the sexaholic's confessional.
3 (out of five stars)
Director: Stuart Blumberg
Cast: Mark Ruffalo, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tim Robbins, Josh Gad, Pin
Rated: R for language and some strong sexual content
Running time: 1 hour, 52 minutes
While it doesn't crawl under the skin the way "Shame" did, this serio-comedy, with its name cast, offers a glossy portrait of New York as a playground of visual stimuli. Captured in crisp advertising imagery and singing colors by cinematographer Yaron Orbach, it's a metropolitan catwalk, a promo-reel for romance and desire.
All of that keeps "Thanks for Sharing" watchable and mildly entertaining, even if it's 15-20 minutes too long. What stops the film from being more satisfying, however, is a problem with the way the central character's arc takes shape, and a key piece of miscasting. Bashing Gwyneth Paltrow has become a tired, easy sport that anyone can play. But her preening performance in an inconsistently drawn role here is a major intrusion.
A smart, soulful environmental consultant celebrating five years in recovery, Marc Ruffalo's Adam is carefully set up to give the film a core of emotional integrity. When his sponsor, Mike (Tim Robbins), insists it's time for him to bite the bullet and start dating again, he conveniently meets Paltrow's Phoebe at a foodie bug-tasting evening. She's a cancer survivor and fitness fanatic whose previous boyfriend's alcoholism gave her an aversion to addicts, which means Adam predictably stalls before sharing details of his recovery.
In a staggeringly miscalculated scene, Phoebe processes the unsettling news and then gives the relationship another shot by stripping down to fetish lingerie and demonstrating her lap-dancing skills on a stunned Adam. While this reads as insensitive, sadistic, stupid or all three, Blumberg and co-scripter Matt Winston justify the behavior by having Phoebe say: "I'm a very sexual person. I need to express that side of me." The queen of mixed signals, she's a phony character and a too-transparent catalyst for Adam's inevitable fall from the wagon.
This shortchanges Ruffalo, who gives a typically sensitive performance, both in his monastic adherence to the vigilant rules of sobriety and his wounded admission of defeat. But it's hard to remain invested in whether or not Adam and Phoebe work things out. He deserves better.
The film has more nuance and credibility in its secondary strands. One concerns the stubbornness of Mike, an aphorism-spouting addiction group elder statesman, who has little faith in the claim that his ex-junkie son Danny (Patrick Fugit) is now clean and eager to atone for his missteps. And Danny is still waiting for Mike's contrition for his drunken toxicity during the boy's childhood.
Also getting considerable attention is the progress of Neil (Josh Gad), a chubby young ER medic doing court-ordered SAA time for nonconsensual frottage. Unrepentant at first, and reluctant to adopt the austerity measures required by the program — no television, no Internet, no masturbation, no subways — Neil alienates his designated sponsor, Adam. But when he's fired as a result of his illness, he gets serious. Help comes, paradoxically, from the lone female in the group, Dede (Alecia Moore), a tattooed tough girl.
A breakout star of "The Book of Mormon" on Broadway, Gad does the film's comedic heavy lifting, much of it demeaning physical gags and scenes with his suffocating Jewish mother (Carol Kane). But it's in the sweet blossoming of Neil's loving yet platonic friendship with Dede, and their mutual support, that Gad's work resonates most. Better known as pop-punkster Pink, Moore proves a capable actor and a relaxed, enormously likable screen presence.

Microsoft Sees 24 Percent Increase in Windows Revenue, Drop in Profit

Microsoft reported a 2.7 percent increase in overall revenue thanks to a small boost from Windows 8
Windows 8 didn't hit the ground running
the way Microsoft thought it would after the October 2012 release, but it did offer a small boost in the company's latest financial earnings report.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2012, Microsoft reported a 2.7 percent boost in revenue to $21.5 billion from $20.9 billion in the year-ago quarter. However, the Windows maker saw a 3.7 percent drop in profit to $6.38 billion (76 cents a share) from $6.62 billion (78 cents a share) one year ago.
Microsoft saw a revenue increase of 24 percent in its Windows division to $5.88 billion (or 11 percent when adjusted for early sales of Windows 8) for the second quarter, which was the first to include Windows 8.
Microsoft didn't offer sales figures for its first homemade tablet,
Surface with Windows RT
. The new version -- Surface with Windows 8 Pro -- is expected to hit store shelves on February 9.
"Our big, bold ambition to reimagine Windows as well as launch Surface and Windows Phone 8 has sparked growing enthusiasm with our customers and unprecedented opportunity and creativity with our partners and developers," said Steve Ballmer, CEO at Microsoft. "With new Windows devices, including Surface Pro, and the new Office on the horizon, we'll continue to drive excitement for the Windows ecosystem and deliver our software through devices and services people love and businesses need."
Windows 8, which was released in late October 2012, was met with plenty of criticism for its massive redesign. However, many PC makers (such as Dell) were hoping that it'd be the saving grace for the PC market, where hardware sales had been declining over the years as mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) exploded onto the scene.
But many PC makers
didn't see a huge increase in sales
with Windows 8. And while Microsoft hasn't released sales figures for its Surface tablet yet, reports last month indicated that the new device took a sales hit due to
a lack of distribution
. Microsoft had only offered the Surface with Windows RT online and at Microsoft stores (and there are a little over 60 stores total in the U.S.).
In mid-December, Microsoft finally allowed
third-party retailers
to sell the Surface.
Surface with Windows RT also made its way to Australia in mid-December, and will do so in other countries in the following months.
Earlier this month, Microsoft announced that
60 million Windows 8 licenses were sold
. However,
60 million licenses sold doesn't mean that there are 60 million Windows 8 devices out there.
In today's financial earnings report for Q2, Microsoft also announced declines in its Entertainment and Devices division (including Xbox) of 11 percent to $3.77 billion and its Business division (including Microsoft Office) of 10 percent to $5.69 billion from a year earlier.
Microsoft's shares were down 2.1 percent in after-hours trading today to $27.63.

RE: Windows 8 sucks
It's not so much that I look down on tablet gaming, it's that most tablet games genuinely suck. Very few are worth my time of day. Ninety percent of them are word games, cut the rope, angry birds in some other scenario everyone wows over... these games are neat/fun for about five minutes and then quickly uninstalled. They are certainly NOT a replacement for my computer/console games. When I pick up my phone it's pretty much never to play games. Actually the only reason I have any games on it at all is so I have something to do while I'm sitting on the can at work. Yes tablet games will get better, this is obvious and I have absolutely no doubt that they will some day be what PC gaming is today. Thing is, your assertion that PCs are just going to stand still is dead wrong. Progress will be made. Hell, have a look at the newest cryengine stuff and tell me anything on your tablet comes close to it. Yes, SOC'S are great, but their focus is mainly on power efficiency and not on maximum performance. That's what makes them ideal for tablets and cellphones. PC's on the other hand could care less about power consumption for the most part, and therefor they can focus purely on performance. In fact it's only been in recent years that laptops became as "good" as desktops performance wise and that's still a stretch. You can by a laptop with an i7 and 16GB RAM sure, but it'll last you about 3 hours tops, cost a ton of money and is only about half to three quarters as powerful as a desktop at equal price (certainly can't touch my main system). There is no arm processor that can come close to touching anything even one of xeons can do, and there wont be for quite a few years because that's not their focus. By the time there is, my new xeons will be far superior. So really it's a question of how much processing power do we really need. As applications get smarter and AI becomes more standard and we demand complex tasks be faster and faster, well as always, the sky's the limit. There will always be (at least for the foreseeable future) a place for desktop and traditional laptops. They might not be as big a market as the tablets are but they aren't fading away into obscurity as some people would have you believe. Even Apple realizes it and that's why they still sell them.

Chuck Cicogni recently wrote a letter concerning difficulties he is having with his knee replacement. I have never treated him, nor do I know him. In the last year we have lost two orthopaedists and are now down to only two. This has made it difficult to schedule time off for holidays, vacations and professional meetings. The 17th of December fell into the Christmas holiday season and likely complicated the previously scheduled appointment. I certainly hope that Mr. Cicogni is able to have his problem rectified.

LG Optimus 4X HD vs Samsung Galaxy S III

Not too surprising except for you guys giving the nod to LG for the screen. I guess Super AMOLED isn't the king of the hill anymore! Thanks
5. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Talking about current AMOLED display evolution stage, LG's NOVA display is better (at least it is mine opinion). :)
26. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
I agree NOVA is better
43. Raymond_htc (Posts: 430; Member since: 06 Apr 2012)
I am wondering whose the one who dislikes the comments above..... must be a AMOLED fanboy....

+1 for gallitoking. :D
39. neutralguy (Posts: 1152; Member since: 30 Apr 2012)
Is it me or I really think that LG's camera captures better quality compared to S3? :3 i think LG's camera is has more natural color compared to s3. S3's captured photos are too bright.

very true ! the video on the lg optimus 4x hd is better too
59. Jericho (unregistered)
Samsung has better benchmarks but optimus 4x has TegraZone(optimized games) i think they should include it cause it can be a little misleading.
2. Birds (Posts: 1157; Member since: 21 Nov 2011)
I wonder what the troll who I argued with over the LG optimus 4X a few months ago has to say now. lol I'm not surprised that the LG optimus 4X held its own against the Samsung GSIII. This device is actually really good. It all comes down to personal preference.

Nope, Viper has a NOVA too, and some others I believe.

Optimus Black, Viper, Optimus L7 and PRADA 3.0 uses the NOVA screen (this is all i rmb lol)

The Optimus Big too I believe.
8. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
LG has made it, but seconds too late. They should have launched it earlier than the One X to share the limelight, but now... it will hardly be talked about.
I actually like the 4X, but the fact that an S3 exists makes me not want to buy one, even a One X perhaps --- and LG's design hasn't been impressing me lately. The Optimus L line, Prada, Vu and this look so alike.

hey guys.. cant it be that samsung optimise their phones for benchmarks so that more people are fooled to beleive that they r superior... i mean in real world, a tegra 3 offer much power n performance than a exynos dual or quad core...anyone???

openning the door for remix and his arsenal
32. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
lol. :)
The exynos is made differently than the tegra. The exynos is smaller (32nm), and made with more advanced tech for the actual chip. On the CPU and GPU side it has an advantage over the T3, though the biggest benchmark differences are more than likely GPU rated. The over clocked Mali400 in the SGS3 wastes all other chipsets out there.
Eithery way, both quad set ups are more than enough for whatever your going to throw at it for a while.
36. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
hehehe, it's funny how you get ahead of yourself sometimes.
Mali 400 < SGX543(MP4)
60. Jericho (unregistered)
Hey we all know remixfa is a BIG samsung fanboy he is going to tell you that galaxy s3 has better benchmarks score but aint gonna tell anything about tegraZone. Galaxy s3 and Optimus 4x are equal in real life performance but TegraZone for Optimus 4x beats the galaxy s3's gaming capabilities.
35. ph00ny (Posts: 1237; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Not quite. Tegra3 being clocked at 1.5Ghz in some models should be at the same or higher than 1.4Ghz Exynos quad since both are based on Cortex A9 and quad core configuration. However, there is a big difference in the memory controller in which Tegra3 is configured with a single 32bit channel like the Tegra2 and Exynos is using a dual 32bit channel.
In terms of GPU performance, gap is even bigger if you actually use a real benchmark instead of the vsync challenged nenamark
Also the fact that samsung builds their own SoC translates well in software optimization. This is the same reason why similarly clocked Exynos dual slaughtered Tegra2 in most tests.
38. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
actually more of the reason why the Exynos 4210 outclassed the Tegra II was due to it's NEON support. this was a pretty significant advantage that both the OMAP4 and the 4210 had over everything at the time.

I'm not trying to troll, promote or make any comparison between LG with Samsung but the Galaxy S III shade of pebble blue color looks REALLY NICE in these pictures. I haven't seen it in person yet but can anyone confirm that the color of the Galaxy S III in these pictures closely match the ones in the picture? (Yes I am aware that it also depends how you have your colors, contrast, and brightness set on your monitor, I just want to get a general idea.)
63. jukenon (Posts: 3; Member since: 14 Jun 2012)
it looks very alike in real life as ive seen it in person. But the back seems a bit more blue than the one i saw in real life. the one i saw was a little bit more metallic and shiny but some may hate and some may prefer. i dont mind either one.

the home button on the S3 is annoying....the more i think about it the closer i get to cancelling my order and waiting for either the lg or razr
64. whothisperson (Posts: 102; Member since: 06 May 2012)
care to elaborate on how it's annoying?
66. Hemlocke (unregistered)
The Pebble Blue one has an annoying purple home button. It is pretty hideous. The more I looked at mine, the more I was glad I bought it to flip for more cash.
31. TMach (Posts: 457; Member since: 29 Dec 2011)
This is what I find odd about these reviews! There simply seems to be no consistency whatsoever which means my advice to all is to rely and go with your own personal preference. As it happens, I have all three having just got the 4X from Amazon.de and it is very good indeed and difficult to separate from the One x but if pushed, I would say the One x betters it. Strangely, although the battery in the 4X has bigger capacity, they both last slightly over 1 day. Overall, the performance of the SGS3 edges both but the overall experience of using the One x, particularly toting Sense 4.0, and the 4X is better. In terms of the of the comparison between the One X and 4X, the One X shades it for camera, build quality, looks, music player. Screen is pretty much the same as One X uses S-LCD2 IPS which is their name for the same screen. Bench marks are pretty similar for both too. They share the same processor and innards with the main difference being regular SIM, memory card and removable battery.

I am defenitly getting this LG is a very good all rounded phone and shines in every department literally...got the best 720p display out there on a mobile(true HD) it is fast as well and a very reasonable unlocked pricing with a regular simcard you don't need to start getting a new sim nor cutting yours phonearena and their scoring is not worth it they praise the GSiii a lot... I think it balls down to personal prefrence and I personally will be choosing the LG over GSiii even when dreaming....

If we try to give ( NO BIAS) observation on these two phones ,
we will surely find out that LG Optimus 4X is MUCH BETTER THAN SAMSUNG GS3!
THE CAMERA ( Photos taken ) from LG 4X IS MORE ACCURATE & REALISTIC VERY NATURAL!.
while on the SAMSUNG GS3 photos look white & blue ON ITS SCREEN ,
4X IS MORE PRETTER THAN SAMSUNG GS3 on the design & shape!
Thank you.

and also lg has "4" in its name and samsung only "3"
so lg is better about 25%!!!!

Apparently everyone that read this review is drinking the LG kool aid because you have to be frickin high to think that the 4x beat the SGSIII. The only thing that i can truly say that LG has going for it is it's display. The LG's display definately is better but other than that everything else went to the SGSIII.
1. Better/ More Powerful processor - there never has nor ever will be a processor that can out do Samsungs latest and greatest chipset when it comes to smartphones. Period.
2. Cameras are on par with one another they produce equally good pictures but when the videos come out the SGS is greater. More fluid and natural recording.
3. UI is way better and more customizable on the SGSIII they really made it simply excellent.
4. Call quality is better on Galaxy S III.

there is a LG hater disliking every good comment LG is getting.. smh.. ppl on this site just dont understand what PERSONAL PREFERENCE is.. which is really sad..
ok regarding the phones, i'd take the 4x HD. TO ME, it looks better design wise, i prefer LG's UI, i absolutely HATE the new version of touchwiz! the LG has similar specs to the S3, can do tasks almost as well, but the 4x is cheaper. and i have preferred LG's IPS panels over Samsung's AMOLED Displays all along. so LG you have my money!

I wonder how much better the GS3'S radio's are compared to the GNex on VZW. My GNex is terrible compared to my prior iphone and moto droids.
55. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
Great comparison, one of the issues I've had with previous comparisons is the lack of a winner. With the iPhone 4S vs. the SIII, the SIII was clearly the superior device and you failed to pick a winner.

There is only one thing I like about the LG over the SGS3 (which I own).
It is the curved edge of the screen that gives it a slightly softer appearance in that department.
Otherwise the SGS3 is better in all ways for me at least personally.

"In the left corner, we have the pebble blue Samsung Galaxy S III ..."
I'm a WP fan, but do I see something wrong here?
GS III is on the right!
61. MariusM (Posts: 2; Member since: 05 May 2012)
I'm a bit curious when you compared the screen. DID YOU TEST ALL THE SAMSUNG COLOR PRESETS? because i can see that you are using Natural color preset on samsung. and thats why colours ar so dull compared whit LG. If you din't test other presets so i can asume that this review of the screen is useless, and the editor dosent know about phones.

Caelan is a Gaelic name meaning strong warrior. He is intelligent, sexy, funny and a very down to earth guy. If you have a problem, Caelan is the guy to see. He gives the best advice. That being said, he knows how to party and have a good time. Caelan is pretty much a synonym of "perfect boyfriend material"

MARTINSBURG - In 2006, Olivia Travis began a journey that will take her across the United States this year.
The 8-year-old from Martinsburg was crowned Little Miss United States last week in Washington, D.C.
"It was very exciting," Olivia said.

Olivia Travis, of Martinsburg, was crowned Little Miss United States last week. Each contestant in the Little Miss United States pageant had a platform, and Olivia's focused on the Ronald McDonald House — an organization that provides housing for parents of children undergoing treatment in hospitals.
Olivia became involved in the pageant world after her great-grandmother suggested she participate in the West Virginia Strawberry Festival, which takes place in Buckhannon each year. Olivia was extremely shy when she was younger, said her mother Michell Travis.
"The pageants also have really helped her not be afraid to get up in front of people, not be afraid to talk to people," Travis said. "It's also allowed her to work with community service projects."
Each contestant in the Little Miss United States pageant had a platform, and Olivia's focused on the Ronald McDonald House - an organization that provides housing for parents of children undergoing treatment in hospitals. Olivia started collecting the metal tabs of soda cans for recycling at her school last year, she said. The funds received from recycling the tabs benefit the organization. The ambitious student has big plans for the project, she said.
"I'm hoping next year I can get it started at all the schools in my county," Olivia said.
As Little Miss United States, Olivia will travel around the country visiting schools and communities, as well as working with Relay for Life - the Miss United States organization's charity of choice. Olivia has never been to Relay for Life, but Travis said she is looking forward to contributing.
"We're excited about that because we've had several family members that dealt with cancer," Travis said.
Community service is a large part of Olivia's life, and she said she wants to continue serving others. One of her favorite moments so far was delivering Valentine cards to veterans, she said. One man in particular couldn't read, so Olivia read her card to him.
"As I was reading it, tears were coming down his face," Olivia said. "It made me really happy to do something nice."
Olivia said pageants have been beneficial, because she has been able to make friends with girls all over the state and country. This is important to her, Olivia said.
"(In) the end, it's just about you making new friends," Olivia said. "It's not about winning."
Travis said there was hesitation to put Olivia in pageants, but she also said she is proud of her daughter for the confidence she has gained and the positive attitude she has.
"The one thing most people say about Olivia when they get to know her is her inner beauty, because she truly is a little sweetheart and would do anything for anybody and has a heart of gold," Travis said. "That's what's most important to us."
When asked what was the one thing she wanted people to know, Olivia spoke words that seemed to have personal meaning.
"Never be afraid to step out of your comfort zone," Olivia said.

Published October 3, 2013
Stephanie Lipnicki first got to know Indra and Purushottam Ghimire when the Nepalese couple came to Jericho Road Ministries seeking medical services. Indra was pregnant with the couple's first child, and through Jericho Road's Priscilla Project, was paired with a mentor and a doula to provide her with physical, emotional and cultural support during her pregnancy.
Lipnicki, director of communications and development for Jericho Road Community Health Center, an agency providing medical and other supplemental services to refugee and low-income community members, said that Jericho Road staff got to know Purushottam through his wife's involvement with the Priscilla Project, and hired him to be a teacher in the agency's Financially Fit financial education program.
Shortly after giving birth, Indra came back to volunteer with the Priscilla Project as a mentor, then trained as a doula so she could offer immigrant mothers the same kind of care and support she had received when she gave birth.
Indra now is also working as a home visitor in Jericho Road's Parent-Child Home Program, an early childhood learning program serving children growing up in poverty.
Lipnicki told the Ghimires' story at last week's kickoff luncheon for UB's 2013 Employees Campaign for the Community to illustrate the work of Jericho Road, one of the United Way agencies served by the UB campaign.
Lipnicki said that the Ghimires themselves were not only able to benefit from Jericho Road's services, "but they immediately took that, were empowered by it and turned around to give back with us to their community—to not only invest in their Nepalese neighbors, but the broader Buffalo community."
"They really point to…how we are helping people on their journey to wellness and self-sufficiency," she said, describing the mission of the agency, which recently became the Jericho Road Community Health Center with the merger of Jericho Road Ministries Inc. and Jericho Road Family Practice, a medical practice founded and operated by UB medical school alumnus Myron Glick.
Lipnicki said she enjoys being part of Jericho Road "because it reminds me of who we are as a nation; America was built on the stories of immigration and new hope." That story continues, she said, noting that more than 14,000 refugees now live in Buffalo, making up 5 percent of the city's population.
"We're the City of Good Neighbors, and we have this opportunity to welcome people, to embrace them, to be a part of their journey in restoring their lives, restoring dignity and hope, and paving the way for future generations and for their children," she said.
Stories like that of Indra and Purushottam Ghimire are one reason Austin Booth, UB's campaign chair, says she enjoys working on the annual campaign.
"The stories of working together, the stories of hope, the stories of redemption—they're really powerful and they are why we're here," she told luncheon attendees including unit liaisons, steering committee members and UB and United Way leadership. The United Way campaign theme, Booth noted, is to retell someone's story "I'm really looking forward to the stories we're going to tell."
Booth opened the luncheon program by announcing the campaign's 2013 goal of $850,000—a substantial increase over last year's goal of $815,000. The 2012 campaign far exceeded that goal, raising more than $834,000.
She expressed optimism that UB will achieve that goal, pointing out that university employees have raised more than $17 million for the community since the campaign started 36 years ago as part of the State Employees Federated Appeal (SEFA). UB's campaign is the most successful one of its kind in New York State, and one of the most successful in the country, she said.
"I really believe in this campaign," she said. "I really do believe that to be a successful university you need to be successful in the community."
President Satish K. Tripathi echoed Booth's comments, noting that UB's campaign "has long been a leading example of the university's service and impact in the community."
Tripathi said that in addition to being a local, state and national leader in giving, UB also has been a leader in community service, with hundreds of faculty, staff and students taking part each year in the United Way's annual Day of Caring, ranking the university among the top local companies in employee involvement in the annual day of service.
Michael Weiner, president and CEO of the United Way of Buffalo and Erie County, also noted UB's involvement in Day of Caring as an example of ways that members of the UB community support the United Way in addition to their monetary contributions. He singled out the work of A. Scott Weber, senior vice provost for academic affairs, who is entering his second year of service as a member of the United Way board, and called Dennis Black, vice president for university life and services, "a community master" and "consummate professional" in his work as chair of the community-wide United Way campaign. Black, he said, is "very passionate and committed about the work the United Way is doing in the community" and has been a "great asset" as a community partner and in helping connect UB to the work of the United Way in the community.

Between her ever-expanding trophy collection and menagerie of mutts, Miranda Lambert has a full house – and both she and husband Blake Shelton prefer it that way.
"He's used to it now," Lambert, 29, tells PEOPLE about how Shelton has learned to accept her penchant for taking in stray animals, though she admits, "At first I think he was like, 'What's going on? We have a zoo.' "
Case in point: Last month, after bringing home a dog she found by the side of the highway, the country star named him Pistol Andy (in honor of her girl group the Pistol Annies) and attempted to find him a home. And she did – kind of.
"His owner contacted the shelter and had pictures that proved that he belonged to her, and he climbed out of the fence," she says. "So he went back to his original home."
But helping animals in need is ingrained in the singer's DNA. "We really foster," says Lambert, who is also the spokesperson for The Pedigree Feeding Project, an initiative that provides a year's worth of dog food to one deserving community. "Every time I find one, we keep 'em until we can find them the right home. You kind of know what dog fits with your family. We keep 'em until we find a family they fit with."
Meanwhile, the country stars have fallen into a rhythm with their own furry brood, now down to five dogs: Jessi and Waylon, who stay at the couple's farm, and Black Betty, Cher and Delta Dawn, who live with the pair.
"We feel like it's a good balance because we can give them all equal attention," Lambert says. So, does that mean there aren't plans for a sixth pup? "I don't think we need anymore for our family," she says.

text: As usual, I will be running a Yomi tournament this weekend (WorldTimeBuddy). Rules: The tournament format will be best of 3 Swiss again. In Swiss, all players are put into a pool and matched up with an opponent. After all the matches in each tournament round are completed, results are recorded. For the next tournament round (and for all following rounds), players with similar win-loss records will be matched (1-0's play 1-0's and 0-1's play 0-1's). The number of rounds of Swiss will depend on the number of players. After the Swiss rounds are completed, the players with the best records will be put into a single elimination bracket. The cut will be to either 4 or 8 players, depending on how many players join. Other general rules are double blind initial character selection, medium timers, hands not visible to spectators, and the loser of each round may change characters (counterpick). I will randomize the seeds 7 times, and I will then make myself the last seed (if I play). Replay the round the first time double KO occurs in a match. The second time both players get a win. This continues until one player has a 1 round lead with at least 2 round wins. Tournament chat will be in the Main tab and I will make a thread to post results. The results format should be Round Number: WinningPlayer (Character1 WL Character2 W) 2-1 LosingPlayer (Character3). To sign up either post here or pm me on the server (/pm CrystalChaos message). Signups will be from now until 7 minutes before the tournament. I may also ask for confirmation in the Main chat tab before the tournament starts. Entrants: 1. deluks917 2. JinSaotome 3. Bob199? 4.

Oh yeah! The Kool-Aid Man is getting a makeover.
Piggy-backing on the success of its liquid flavor enhancer MiO, Kraft Foods is unveiling a new Kool-Aid Man on Monday as it promotes a new liquid Kool-Aid mix.
Once known for crashing through bricks walls and screaming "Oh yeah!," the new computer-generated Kool-Aid Man is more laid back, wears his flavors like clothing, talks and even has a bit of a sense of humor, MSN reported.
A new commercial shows a clear Kool-Aid Man stepping out of the shower and picking an outfit from a pantry of different Kool-Aid mixes, according to The Associated Press.
"I put my pants on one leg at a time," he says in the ad. "Except my pants are 22 different flavors. I've got grape pants, I've got watermelon pants..."
Like MiO and Dasani Drops, the new liquid Kool-Aid mix can be squeezed directly into a glass of water. It comes in cherry, orange and tropical punch flavors.

Kenneth C. Anderson, MD, of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, will receive the 2005 Robert A. Kyle Lifetime Achievement Award on September 27th.
Dr. Anderson has developed the world's most successful research and clinical program devoted to multiple myeloma. He has attracted many talented young investigators and has led them in making important contributions to the understanding of multiple myeloma and ultimately to successful therapy of this devastating disease. His group consists of young research fellows as well as seasoned researchers, molecular biologists, immunologists, transplant biologists, and clinicians who effectively work together. He and his group developed monoclonal antibodies that are used to characterize the B-cell malignancies. These antibodies have been utilized to purge tumor cells from the collected hematopoietic stem cells. They have pointed out that adhesion molecules on myeloma cells play an important role in localizing tumor cells within the bone marrow and also, in regulating tumor cell growth and survival. They have clarified the mechanisms of regulating autocrine and paracrine cell growth at both the cellular and molecular levels. They have developed a model of human myeloma using SCID mice which allows the study of the mechanisms of plasma cell growth in vivo. Dr. Anderson and his colleagues have also demonstrated multiple abnor-malities in the cell cycle regulatory proteins which result in abnormal growth, control, and survival. Signaling cascades mediating cell growth, survival, and drug resistance have also been delineated. They have shown that apoptotic pathways in myeloma cells are important. Furthermore, mechanisms of resistance to apoptosis have been studied in an effort to develop new therapies for myeloma. They have emphasized the role of the microenvironment in regulating growth and survival of myeloma tumor cells. Most importantly, these studies have identified multiple agents targeting the tumor cell-tumor host interaction.
These laboratory investigations have resulted in important new therapies for the treatment of mul-tiple myeloma at the bedside. Dr. Anderson and his group have developed novel immune-based therapeutic approaches for multiple myeloma. These include the development of anti-tumor vaccines as well as ex vivo expansion of allogeneic and autologous antigen specific T cells, for allografting and autografting respectively. His laboratory has identified new treatment targets of the tumor cell and its bone marrow microenvironment. They have designed and lead multiple clinic protocols to demonstrate the efficacy of these agents. Most importantly, Dr. Anderson's group played a major role in the development of the proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib. His identification and validation of targets to improve patient outcome in myeloma shows great promise.
Born in Worcester, Massachusetts, Kenneth Anderson graduated from Boston University, and received his MD from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland. Following internship and medical residency at Johns Hopkins, he became a fellow in medical oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. He was also a clinical fellow in medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital. He advanced from Instructor in Medicine to Professor of Medicine, and is currently the Kraft Family Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School. He is currently Chief, Division of Hematologic Neoplasia, Dana-Farber, and Director of the Jerome Lipper Multiple Multiple Myeloma Center.
Dr. Anderson has received many honors, including the Waldenström Award for Myeloma Research as well as the Doris Duke Clinical Research Clinical Scientist Award. He has served as visiting professor at many prestigious institutions, including Yale University, University of Pennsylvania, and University of Chicago. Dr. Anderson has also given many lectureships including the University of Utah, University of Puerto Rico and Mayo Clinic. He has also served on the editorial boards of BLOOD, Journal of Clinical Oncology, Transfusion, and American Journal of Hematology. Dr. Anderson is Associate Editor of the European Journal of Haematology and Section Editor of Myeloma for Leukemia. His bibliography is impressive from both a qualitative and quantitative standpoint and consists of more than 400 peer-reviewed papers, book chapters, and books.
Dr. Anderson is Chair of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), Multiple Myeloma Clinical Practice Guidelines Committee, and is a Cancer and Leukemia Group B principal investigator. He serves on the Scientific Advisory Board of the International Myeloma Foundation. He is also on the Board of Directors and Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, as well as on the Board of Directors and Chair of the Leadership Committee of the Multiple Myeloma Research Consortium. Dr. Anderson has served on the National Cancer Institute Scientific Review Group D and was cochairman of the National Cancer Institute Progress Review Group on Leukemia, Lymphoma and Myeloma. He also serves on external Advisory Committees at the University of Indiana Cancer Center, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and the Amyloid Center at Boston University.
It is evident from his many activities that Ken is never too busy to help others. Dr. Anderson has done more for the field of multiple myeloma and related disorders than anyone else. He is most deserving of this Lifetime Achievement Award.

In this episode of 10-4, we introduce another new feature of ASP.NET WebForms 4.0: Routing. The ASP.NET Routing engine was added in the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 release and is heavily leveraged by both ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET Dynamic Data to provide bi-directional routing functionality. With the release of ASP.NET WebForms 4.0, you can take full advantage of the common route engine that allows you to customize the URLs that your application exposes. In addition, new expression builders allow you to generate dynamic URLs that are based on your route definitions, alleviating you from having to hard code static links.

Oops, something didn't work.
And about new rendering mode of controls.
Thank you.
Very well implemented very useful feature!
One question: what about urls localization?
Should I populate the RouteTable by hand for every languages or there is some resource related stuffs in the API?
Thank you JC! I wrote you some ideas a month ago.
Do the new route tools help in moving from a site with identity keys (int) to text values.
I guess it would be difficult to map all the number / string pairs as routes in a config file. I assume they could be added programatically on application start. They would have to be recreated if something was later added to the database?
Or do you suggest moving away from passing the primary keys of database related objects and instead passing a unique string?
Great to hear!
Is there a source file included with demo?
I have been trying to run this and keep getting file not found error I am using VS2010 Beta 2

|A New Route to Nanoscale Conducting Channels in Insulating Oxides
Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs)—narrow conducting channels at the surfaces and interfaces of semiconductor materials—are the bedrock of conventional electronics. The startling 2004 discovery that such 2DEGs could be engineered at the interface between two insulating transition-metal oxides, SrTiO3 and LaAlO3, initiated a worldwide effort to harness the functionality of oxide materials for advanced electronic applications. Now, an international collaboration working at the ALS has shown that the interface is not required. Using only intense synchrotron light, the group has been able to create and control 2DEGs at the bare surfaces of the insulating oxides SrTiO3 and KTaO3. As well as suggesting a potential methodology to spatially pattern 2DEGs in a wide variety of complex oxides, this discovery opens a new avenue for spectroscopic investigation of these novel electronic systems.
The collaborators were performing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements at Beamline 10.0.1 on the insulating oxide SrTiO3. In an insulator, no electronic bands are expected close to the Fermi level, so it came as a surprise when the team clearly observed dispersive electronic bands intersecting the Fermi level at the surface of the SrTiO3, simply by cleaving the sample in vacuum and then exposing it to intense ultraviolet light. The measurements revealed the gradual formation of electronic states that are confined to a layer at the sample surface sufficiently thin that quantum-size effects emerged (quantum effects that arise when the length scale is comparable to the electron wavelength).
The creation of such a two-dimensional conducting channel at the bare surface of SrTiO3 shows that an interface with the polar surface of another oxide—thought to be a major factor driving 2DEG formation at SrTiO3/LaAlO3 interfaces—is not always a prerequisite for creating a two-dimensional electron system in a three-dimensional transition-metal oxide host. Relaxing this requirement opens the possibility of engineering 2DEGs in more exotic parent compounds. Indeed, the team has already demonstrated this potential with the formation of a 2DEG in the 5d transition-metal oxide KTaO3. This material is a compound whose large spin–orbit interactions suggest potential for exploiting the spin of the electron in the emerging variant of electronics termed "spintronics."
In SrTiO3, the 2DEG did not exist on the freshly cleaved sample, but its electron density could be precisely tuned by controlling the exposure to synchrotron ultraviolet light. This methodology opens a new route for fast and inexpensive patterning of the ground-state electron density of the 2DEG, thereby promising ways to combine novel semiconductor device architectures with the increased functionality of oxides and to scale these down to nanometer dimensions.
More than just a tool for monitoring evolution of the 2DEG density, the ARPES measurements allowed the collaborators to build up the first detailed spectroscopic picture of the electronic structure of complex oxide 2DEGs. They found that the 2DEGs are composed of multiple sub-bands of light carriers with low effective masses, which coexist with much heavier bands, reflecting an electronic structure derived from multiple orbitals. Moreover, the orbital degeneracies are strongly modified as compared to the bulk band structure, suggesting the delicate interplay of quantum confinement, multi-orbital physics, and spin–orbit interactions, which may help drive novel properties of the resulting 2DEGs, such as enhanced thermoelectric properties.
Finally, the lightest bands observed have lower effective masses than the bulk bands from which they derive. Similar to 2DEGs in conventional semiconductors such as InAs, the rapid dispersion of these states in SrTiO3 indicates the presence of fast-moving electrons, which likely give rise to the high mobilities observed in interfacial oxide 2DEGs. At the same time, the researchers also observe spectroscopic signatures of strong electronic correlations. Such interactions typically lead to heavier masses. The unusual co-existence of fast-moving, yet strongly interacting, electrons could hold the key to engineering novel functionality into a new generation of all-oxide electronic devices.

A quartet of Stetson Hatters had a big hand in helping the Waynesboro Generals to a Valley League Baseball title this summer.
The four Hatters – shortstop Tyler Bocock, first baseman Patrick Mazeika, pitcher Josh Thorne and utility player Kevin Fagan – played for coach Mike Bocock, who had seven previous Valley League titles to his credit, but was in his first season in Waynesboro.
During the summer season, the Generals struggled. The team finished the year with a .500 record, 10 games behind the South Division champions from Harrisonburg. Those two teams met in the first round of the playoffs and, even though Waynesboro was 0-6 against the Turks in the regular season, the Generals swept the best of three playoff series with 11-2 and 4-3 victories.
It was Fagan who clinched the series with a two-out, tw0-run walk-off single in the second game.
Waynesboro the fell behind New Market in the round two, losing the opening game 6-5 in 10 innings before bouncing back to force a deciding game three with a 12-3 victory in Game 2. The Generals pushed their way into the Valley League Championship series with a 3-0 victory in Game 3.
The Championship series against Strasburg started with a shutout loss, but the Generals came back with a 5-1 win in Game 2 to force a one game championship, a game Waynesboro won 6-3 on August 7.
The trio of Hatters had a big hand in winning the title. Bocock was the lone member of the team to earn All-Valley League honors, hitting .311 in 44 games with 10 doubles and 23 RBI. Mazeika, who joined the team mid-way through the season, was the leading hitter on the squad, batting .382 in 24 games with seven doubles and 18 RBI.
Thorne saw action on the mound in 16 games, all in relief, posting a 1.98 ERA in 22.2 innings of work with 21 strikeouts. He was 2-0 with two saves. Fagan saw only limited action for the team as a result of the shoulder injury he suffered last spring. He played in just four games during the regular season, but played in all eight playoff games, delivering four hits, including a homer, and driving in four runs.
Other Hatters also had success over the summer.
Junior Darby McCormick played for the Southern Maryland Nationals in the Cal Ripken Sr. League and finished the year hitting .274 in 31 games with a home run and nine RBI. Stetson teammate Kyle Pitts was also on that squad and finished with a .307 average and also drove in nine runs.
Junior catcher Garrett Russini also played in the Cal Ripken League for the Youse's Orioles. In 26 games he hit .274 with a triple and five RBI.
Pitcher Ben Rakus played for the Holyoke Blue Sox in the Northeast Collegiate Baseball League and finished the summer with a 4-2 record to go with a sparkling 0.96 ERA. He made 15 appearances, all in relief, and recorded 17 strikeouts in 18.2 innings of work and earned three saves.
Junior infielder K'shawn Smith played for the Utica Brewers in the Perfect Game Collegiate League and hit .279 for the summer in 42 games with 14 doubles, a homer and 16 runs driven in. Smith was also 16-of-21 on stolen base attempts.
Junior outfielder Kyle Zech played for the Southampton Beakers of the Hampton's Collegiate League and finished second in the league with a .343 average. He playe din 29 games and drove in 13 runs to go with 12 stolen bases.
A trio of other Hatters stayed home and played for the DeLand Suns in the Florida League. Tanner Blackman finished the summer with a .236 average with 10 RBI and 15 stolen bases while Jake Pequignot hit .182 in 22 games with a homer and five RBI. On the mound, Tyler Warmoth pitched in just four games, throwing a total of 7.1 innings. Blackman also made two appearances on the mound, throwing six innings.
The Hatters will return to the field as a team at Stetson on October 1 with the start of fall practice. Fall camp will run through the first week of November and will once again include an exhibition game against the Canadian Junior National Team. That game is scheduled for Sunday, October 6, at 6:30 p.m. at Melching Field.
The 2014 Hatters roster will include 13 first year players and will mark the 35th season on the bench for head coach Pete Dunn. The Hatters will open the season in February with a three-game home series against the Ole Miss Rebels.

As the Bill Turns…Episode 5
As the summer ends, year round legislatures are returning from recess and taking action on some of our key legislation. Here are their stories:
The IMF came out against AB 219, California's Access to Cancer Treatment Act because of the detrimental compromises made by the sponsor of the bill that water down the effectiveness of the legislation. On Monday September 9, the State Senate passed the amended bill changing the cap in out-of-pocket expenses, from $100 to $200, for patients taking oral anticancer treatments. Additionally, the changes allow insurers to increase the cap over time, delay the implementation date until 2015, and set the law to expire in 2019 – all counter to the original intent of the bill.
The IMF works on oral anticancer treatment bills across the country and passing this law will not only make it harder to pass an effective bill in California, its effects will be felt in the other 23 states that have yet to implement similar legislation. Californians Take Action Now!
The coalition supporting HR 4751, The Cancer Treatment Fairness Act, has started up again and is looking for patient stories. If you live in Michigan, and have paid over $250/month for your oral anticancer treatment under private insurance, click here to share your story with Aimee today. Even if you yourself have not suffered this inequity, now is the time to stand up for cancer patients who have and ask your state Representative to support HR 4751. Click here to Take Action!
While the Ohio State Legislature has been on summer recess, advocates have been catching up with legislators in their districts asking for support of SB99. Those meetings made a real difference with our lead sponsor fielding calls from legislators who heard from their constituents. The coalition is looking forward to a hearing in October. Ask for support from your legislator today!
We are excited to share the news that the Wisconsin Cancer Treatment Fairness Act was introduced with 17 State Senate co-sponsors and 40 State Assembly co-sponsors! Thank you to those who emailed, called, and met with your legislators to ask for support. Now we wait to hear to which committee the bill will be referred, which will determine our next move to pass this bill. In the meantime, if you have suffered an inequity in coverage for your oral anticancer treatments, please email us your story to help persuade legislators that this problem needs a solution!

THE HOUSE OF JOURNALISTS: A Novel. By Tim Finch. Farrar, Straus and Giroux. 294 pages. $26.
This story rattles you to your core, and does it almost playfully.
"The House of Journalists" is a sanctuary for political refugees who can make some pretense of having practiced journalism.
But that doesn't begin to describe the angst of its residents, volunteers, donors, eavesdroppers, manipulators and back-biting managers who champion freedom while keeping a paranoid watch that resembles a little too eerily the oppressions the residents fled.
The residents take turns narrating, telling about the terrors they left and the alienation they have found, and each tale says as much as about the other characters as the one speaking. Sometimes they speak together as a sort of Greek chorus.
In the middle of it all is AA, a cipher of a character who might or might not be a legitimate refugee, who might or might not be abetting a political power broker in taking down the house, who might or might not be a specter. And who doesn't talk.
"But you, AA, have not joined us, we notice. Though we notice Julian seems relaxed about your absence."
This is brutally dark satire you tumble into snickering and stagger away from bruised.
"You must wear this pass around your neck at all times. Around your neck, at all times, for security reasons, you are to wear this identity. AA-writer. Whatever you have been through and wherever are going, it is something, is it not, to be recognized officially in this way?"
Too cool.
Finch tears contemporary mores to shreds writing about people whose lives are in pieces. You keep groping for a resolution, something that will bandage it up nicely and ... ah, no ... that would be telling.
Just know that even the somewhat gimmicky ending stays adeptly in character.
"The House of Journalists" is so human, full of allusions and disturbing that it's hard to accept it is the first fiction by Finch, a political journalist. This tale is great shakes.
Reviewer Bo Petersen is a reporter for The Post and Courier.

LISBON - Check with any hotel, motel or campground throughout the area, and the one thing found in common is the presence of the shale industry.
With employment growth among the Marcellus and Utica shales, workers have counted on hotels to unwind after a hard day at work, and the hotels have looked forward to them as well.
"They get up early, go to work at 5 or 6 in the morning and come home," said Mike Perline, manager of the Salem/Lisbon KOA Kampground. "You couldn't ask for better guests than that."

Since the boom hit two years ago, hotels and motels throughout the area have experienced a steady stream of tenants and guests year-round.
"We have quite a few workers coming and going throughout the year," said Aaron Stevens, owner of the Travelers Motel. "They stay for two weeks, and then they're off for two weeks, and as soon as they leave, we have another group of people staying for two weeks. It's just been consistently busy for us."
The Salem/Lisbon KOA on Winona Road in Salem has seen its share of success during the boom. Since last year, the campground opened for winter accommodations, and those in the shale industry seized the opportunity.
"This is the second winter we've been open, and the second straight year we're at full capacity," Perline said. "We started with 20 spaces last winter, then we added three more, and kept adding."
The KOA offers its usual campground amenities like its swimming pool, three-acre fishing pond, miniature golf and bike rentals during camping season as well as Wi-Fi and cable TV year-round.
It also provides dining options for guests like Shindigz, a snack bar and general store where guests can pick up all kinds of snacks like pizza, wings and milkshakes along with other odds and ends.
The campground goes a step further with "Family Food Night." As the name implies, one large family-style dinner is served to all shale workers as a token of the campground's appreciation.
"Sometimes we'll have hamburgers, steaks, Mexican food, pretty much food for one big family," Perline said. "They have worked 10 or 12 hours a day. The least they look forward to is to come home after a long day at work and cook. They've been very good to us, and so we want to do right by them."
Those looking to stay at the campgrounds, however, are urged to call ahead as high volume from the shale industry has resulted in very few openings.
"We have just been booked solid this year," Perline said. "We have more people on a waiting list once an opening comes up. We are, however, considering adding some more cabins pretty soon."
The business of a smaller lodging option such as the Travelers Motel, located on state Route 45 in Lisbon, consists almost entirely of workers in the shale industry.
Stevens noted when he reopened the motel in 2012 after being closed for three years, he had the shale industry in mind during the motel's renovations.
"It was my idea when I came in to make it livable for the workers," Stevens said. "They're pretty good guys. They're hard working guys who just want to relax after their hard day, and we've been able to accommodate to them."
Stevens also isn't worried too much with competing against big name hotels like the Days Inn on state Route 154 in Lisbon.
"We have been better because of the price," Stevens said. "There's no comparison in price as far as hotels go. We offer queen beds, cable TV, Wi-Fi, the same things that any hotel would."
The Frola Motel, also located on state Route 45, also has seen success with the shale industry as well.
"The shale boom has been great for us," said a representative who wished to remain anonymous. "They guys have been absolutely great, and we have had a good response with them here. Our maid can even tell you how good they have been."
Big hotels like the Days Inn also have been a temporary residence for shale workers. The Days Inn also includes nearby dining options like the Shale Tavern and Grille, located next door to the hotel. Representatives from the Days Inn were unavailable for comment.
The shale boom has given hope to many, and as long as the industry remains in the area, hotels will continue to strive for more business.
"They have been like family to us now," Perline said. "They have helped us, so we'll keep helping them."

Grand Island High School Principal Sandra Keith Anzalone is headed to Eden to become the new school superintendent there.
She will take office March 18.
Anzalone said she grew up in Springville and her family bought a farm on Marshfield Road near Route 75 in Lawtons in 1979, and she and her husband own a house near there.
"I am absolutely thrilled to be back, where I call home, back in the Southern Tier," Anzalone said.
Anzalone will be paid $135,000 a year, and will receive bonuses if the district is named in the top 10 and top five in the community for student performance. She also will be required to live in Eden within a year.
In addition to appointing Anzalone, the school board Friday also named Loraine Ingrasci as interim finance director. She will be paid $600 a day, without benefits, and will begin the transition by working up to three days a week with outgoing finance director Lisa Almasi, who is stepping down at the end of the month.
The search for a new superintendent started last year, after the board voted not to extend the contract of Superintendent Ronald K. Buggs beyond June 30. Buggs submitted his resignation last month. He was named the new president and principal at Niagara Catholic High School. Buggs had served as principal and president at the school in the 1990s, before becoming a principal and later superintendent at Eden.
Anzalone has been principal at Grand Island High School for the last seven years and before that was an assistant principal in Williamsville.
She earned a bachelor of science degree from the University at Buffalo and a master's degree in learning and behavioral disorders from Buffalo State College. She has served as a middle school teaching assistant, summer preschool teacher, high school special education teacher and study skills consultant.
She was named 2009 Woman Administrator of the Year by Western New York Women in Educational Leadership, and received the Parent-Teacher Association Lifetime Achievement award in 2010.
She was one of three finalists for the job. Board President Steven Cerne said Anzalone was the favorite of all the stakeholder groups that interviewed her. He said she is the "best fit for the culture of the community."
Anzalone is undeterred by coming into the district in the middle of preparations for the 2013-14 budget, with an interim finance director who is new to the district. She said it takes an entire community to make a successful district.
"It's a wonderful community. We will move forward. We'll have a budget, and it will be a good budget," she said. "We will just move forward for the kids. I have no concerns."
