View Level Timeline – Part 4
In 2008, to celebrate our 50th anniversary in San Francisco we installed a timeline on the View Level at the ballpark which highlighted some of our great players and amazing moments. We know that all of our fans are not able to come to a game at the park, or those who do may not be old enough to remember some of our alumni. For this road trip we decided to showcase the timeline and give everyone a bit more information about the moments. Everything from 1987 to 1999 is on the banners for today.

1950s Marilyn Monroe Lock of Hair
Starting Bid - $400.00, Sold For - $1,508.00
An amazing 1950s presentation of a fabulous Hollywood relic: a small lock of Marilyn Monroe's hair, with provenance directly from her personal hairdresser, Kenneth Battelle. The neatly tied lock of approximately twenty (20) strands of Marilyn's hair is housed in a 1.25 x 1.75 inch flat paper box. The lock and its container are part of an elaborate presentation, attached to a larger paper box measuring 2.5 x 3 inches, within which is a tiny cased photo of Monroe measuring 1 x 1.5 inches, surrounded by a fabric-lined matting. A paper label reading "Kenneth, Hairdresser, Marilyn Monroe" appears on the cover. "Mr. Kenneth," during the 1950s and early 1960s, was truly the hairdresser to the stars in New York, and was particularly well known for his association with Marilyn Monroe. Interestingly enough, Kenneth was also the favorite hairdresser of Jackie Kennedy and created her trademark bouffant hairdo. The circumstances relating to the creation of this presentation are unknown. It is likely that Kenneth had these made up as special gifts for friends, perhaps during the holiday season. Robert Edward Auctions regularly passes on opportunities to offer the hair of famous persons (Lincoln, Elvis, Washington, etc.) in part because we believe it is virtually impossible for us to authenticate hair with certainty. This is the very first celebrity hair we have ever offered, and we have made this exception because we are so impressed with the elaborate period presentation, which alone makes this piece worthy of offering. We have no way to authenticate Marilyn's hair, but because of the presentation we have as much or more confidence in this sample than any other sample of a famous person's hair we have ever seen offered. The recent return of tens of thousands of dollars worth of Elvis hair purchased at auction, which was allegedly DNA tested with negative results, confirms our conservative approach to this area of collecting. This is a very striking and unique keepsake custom-made for presentation by Marilyn Monroe's personal hairdresser in the 1950s. Overall the box is in Very Good condition, with general wear, but with a magnificent look, ideal for display. Monroe remains the definitive symbol of glamour, Hollywood in the Golden Era, sex-appeal, and tragedy. Her short life still resonates with most film enthusiasts. This is a very unusual, personal, and touching relic relating to her great legend. Reserve $400. Estimate $800/$1,200. SOLD FOR $1,508.00

It's been nearly two weeks since Rocky Marquez walked out of a Maricopa County jail using another inmate's identification, and while the Sheriff's Office has arrested two people on allegations that they aided in the escape, the search for Marquez continues.
The U.S. Marshals Service, which is leading the manhunt, is still collecting information and following up on leads, said Matt Hershey, a deputy U.S. marshal in Arizona. He offered no specifics on where investigators believe Marquez might be staying, though work continues in Mexico.
"Pretty much the whole squad of our task force has been working it every day since it happened," Hershey said. "A lot of resources are being used on it."
Marquez, 33, walked out of the sheriff's Lower Buckeye Jail with a group of other inmates who were being released about 2 a.m. May 14. Marquez took the identification of another inmate who was scheduled for release, shaved his head and dressed in the other inmate's civilian clothes to complete the ruse, according to sheriff's officials. Surveillance footage shows Marquez calmly waiting with other inmates and walking out the door.
Investigators believe he was picked up after leaving the jail.
Last week, investigators arrested Antonio Melara, 20, and his mother, Carmella Marbury, 43, on suspicion of conspiracy to commit escape.
Marquez was in Lower Buckeye Jail on allegations of perjury, misconduct involving weapons, fraud, forgery and witness tampering. On May 1, a federal grand jury handed up an eight-count indictment with allegations tied to a large-scale marijuana-distribution ring and Marquez's efforts to conceal the proceeds by purchasing property, including two $400,000 homes.
Marquez's escape marked the second time in four months that an inmate fled the sheriff's custody. Jairo Contreras, 20, snuck out of a Maricopa County jail in an oversized laundry cart and was captured about 10 days later in Santa Fe following a car chase and standoff with local law enforcement and the Marshals Service.
Two other high-profile inmates who have escaped or been mistakenly released from local jails in recent years remain on the run, and their captures remain high on the list of the Marshals Service's priorities, said Hershey, the deputy marshal in Arizona.
Daniel Perez, 26, was mistakenly released from a Pinal County jail on misdemeanor charges in December 2010 after jail officials said they never received paperwork that accused Perez of more serious crimes, including shooting at an Arizona Department of Public Safety officer. A coalition of state and local agencies thought they had Perez cornered in a restaurant near Chandler Fashion Center in January 2011, but it turned out to be Adam Armando Hernandez, who was accused of driving a stolen car after committing armed robberies and burglaries.
Adrian Gonzalez Cruz, 32, a convicted child rapist on trial on kidnapping and sexual-assault charges, took advantage of inattentive sheriff's deputies to make a lunchtime escape from the Maricopa County Superior Courthouse in downtown Phoenix in February 2009. Investigators said weeks after Cruz's escape that they believed he had fled to Mexico.
The Marshals Service is continuing to work with authorities in Mexico to hunt for Marquez, Cruz and other fugitives, Hershey said.
"Those are being worked on a daily basis," he said. "Each case poses a few different challenges that we're always working through."

Frank and her colleagues developed a new psychotherapy—interpersonal and social rhythm therapy—for the treatment of manic depressive illness under a MERIT award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). She recently completed an NIMH-sponsored study of women with recurrent depression in which she examined how psychobiology, life stress, and different "doses" of psychotherapy interact to increase or decrease vulnerability to new episodes of depression. In addition, Frank is completing a joint project with researchers at the University of Pisa, Italy, aimed at achieving a better understanding of the clinical importance of subsyndromal mood, anxiety and eating disorders—that is, when the symptoms are not severe enough for diagnosis as a clinically recognized syndrome.
An expert in mood disorders and their treatment, Frank was Chair of the Food and Drug Administration Psychopharmacologic Drugs Advisory Panel. She also is a former member of the National Advisory Mental Health Council. She currently serves on the Mood Disorders Workgroup of the American Psychiatric Association Task Force on DSM-V. Frank is an honorary fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. In 1999 Dr. Frank was elected to the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine.
A graduate of Vassar College, Frank earned a master's degree in English at Carnegie Mellon University and a doctorate in psychology at the University of Pittsburgh.

MILWAUKEE - Carlos Zambrano pitched the first no-hitter for the Chicago Cubs in 36 years, returning from a sore rotator cuff to shut down the Houston Astros, 5-0, on Sunday night in a game relocated because of Hurricane Ike.
"I guess I'm back!" Zambrano hollered.
Pitching for the first time since Sept. 2, Zambrano stopped a Houston team that had not played since Thursday. The storm forced baseball to move two games from Texas to Miller Park, and the Astros flew hours before they took the field.
Zambrano, known for his emotional displays on the mound, kept himself in control until striking out Darin Erstad to finish off the gem. It was baseball's first neutral-site no-hitter in modern history, the Elias Sports Bureau said.
"I'm a little confused right now," Zambrano (14-5) said. "I still can't believe it. It's a great feeling, a feeling that you can't describe."
The crowd of 23,441 - mostly Cubs fans - erupted in a wild ovation after chanting "Let's go Z!" throughout the final inning.
Zambrano struck out a season-high 10 and walked one in the Cubs' first no-hitter since Milt Pappas pitched one against San Diego in 1972. This was the 13th no-hitter in team history, including five in the late 1800s.
The Astros only once came close to a hit. David Newhan lined a drive that first baseman Derrek Lee jumped to catch to end the fifth inning.
Zambrano helped himself, too, by charging off the mound and across the first-base line to catch Hunter Pence's foul pop for the second out in the eighth.

Practice started off with the Oklahoma Drill, with most of the young players participating. Randall Goforth had one big hit during the period, on what looked like Melvin Emesibe.
Devin Lucien, who is making his way back from a collarbone injury, was in red and participated in most of practice. Dietrich Riley was also in red, but didn't do much contact work.
The first play of the scrimmage was a fairly inauspicious one, with Brett Hundley throwing a pick to Tevin McDonald. McDonald actually made a nice play on the ball, jumping in front of the receiver to snag the pass.
Nate Iese played some Y, and caught a number of passes in red zone drills. He is very athletic, and, along with Kenny Orjioke, is enough of an athlete that he's not necessarily nailed to the outside linebacker spot.
In some fun at the end, Conor McDermott, who won MVP honors in the freshman Turkey Bowl on Thanksgiving, lined up across from defensive back Tre Hale and caught a touchdown pass.
Talking with Anthony Barr and Xavier Su'a-Filo afterward, Barr said that, if he had to decide right now, he'd stay at UCLA and Su'a-Filo said that he was definitely staying. Mora said that he and the coaching staff will gather information and also use their experience to help all eligible players make decisions on the NFL. He also said that he doesn't think anyone will leave early.
Collin Keoshian, a junior college linebacker/running back for Glendale College, was at practice and spoke with some of the coaches.
JM: it was fun for these guys to get back out here again today and get some work. I was pleased with their energy, their enthusiasm. We had a young guys scrimmage there at the end where I thought was really productive. This is a great time to get some those guys, that don't get a lot of playing time and spend a lot of time on the service teams, some really good work. So that's one of the objectives of today's practice. It'll be one of the objectives of the next practice which is a week from day, next Saturday, and then we'll really get into Baylor pretty heavy after that. So other than that, this is it.
Q: how much stuff have you guys done so far just looking at Baylor?
JM: We've broken down the films for our computer breakdowns but that's about it. We've been recruiting. This week, this past week, and this next week are pretty heavy in the recruiting, and so we've got to spent some time on the road and then in between that, we'll get on Baylor.
Q: Little easier taking that 9-4 record and taking it for a spin in the recruiting world?
JM: Yeah, you know you feel like there's an excitement out there about what we're doing. And I don't know if it's the record so much as they've seen us playing on TV, and these kids seem to like the style that we're playing with, and the energy, and enthusiasm. I think they recognize that there's good things going on here.
Q: do you have a certain strategy when planning out these practices that they give you?
JM: yeah, I mean we want to take… we went Tuesday and Thursday. You're allowed 15 days on the field so we went last Tuesday and Thursday [December 4, 6, respectively] early in the morning. We did what we called "skills and drills." And it was really just getting back out here. We didn't have pads on. It was really some 7-on-7 and 1-on-1. And then, like I said, this Saturday today [Dec. 8] and next Saturday [Dec. 15] is kind of what I call a generic practice. It's just UCLA versus UCLA. And then what we'll do is spend the four days, the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th and those will be tough hard practices for Baylor. We'll put in our game plan. We'll do all the things we typically do in a normal game week, and then when we get down to San Diego, it's just kind of polishing and tightening things up for us. Because there's so many things going on down there. There's a lot of distractions. We wanted to get the game plan in while we're here. It's kind of what you do for a Super Bowl when it's a 2-week Super Bowl window. So that's what we're modeling it after.
Q: how much film on Baylor have the guys had at this point?
JM: the players? None. They may have on their own, but we haven't asked them to look at any yet. I think it's important that they get away for a few days and just recover a little bit, refresh, and… what's important this week is finals. Finals start Monday. And we want them to finish strong. They've been doing well in school, and it's important that they get the time to focus on their studies. I mean a hundred percent on their studies. So that's what we're going to do.
Q: do you get the sense that they're over the disappointment of not making the Rose Bowl… excited about this [upcoming] game?
JM: yeah, I got that sense. I did. They had a lot of energy today. You know what's about this age group? They just love playing ball. There was a lot of disappointment about not making the Rose Bowl but they like hanging out together and playing ball together, and so we'll go make the best of it.
Q: what have you seen out of Baylor? What's your first impression of them and their passing game?
JM: I haven't seen anything. The last Baylor game I saw was when they beat the University of Washington in the Alamo Bowl and scored about a thousand points. So I don't know that I want to look at them yet, you know? Trying to have a couple good days here before I go look at them. But I met their coach down in San Diego on Wednesday, and he's a really good guy. And I think it will be a great matchup.
Q: have you started talking to any of your players who might be eligible to leave early for draft stuff?
JM: yeah, we've talked to them all, and we'll continue to talk to them. You know, it's a process. But what we want to try to do is give them the best advice possible for them. Keeping in mind that we would like them all to stay him, but we have to give them the best advice for them.
Q: the kind of thing that you're going to use your NFL contacts to get some information for them?
JM: yes, and get them the information that they need. Mel Kiper, he doesn't make a draft pick. He can put out his top 15 and his first two rounds. Guys in NFL, they don't look at Mel Kiper's pick when they're deciding who they want to pick. So what you have to do is you try to help the players divorce themselves from some of the stuff that they read from these draft experts who are not in a draft room. Mel Kiper does a great job, but he doesn't make the pick. And I use Mel because he's the most famous of them all. I'm not picking on Mel. It's just that process. So we just have to help them make the right decision.
Q: Indianapolis took his advice last year.
JM: wasn't it Mel Kiper and the old GM [Bill Tobin, general manager] at Indy that got into it on the air one time? Mel does a great job but, you know, these kids have to realize that he's not the guy… and Mel and guys like Mel don't make the picks. The GM's and the coaches make the picks. We have to give them real information. And that's what we'll do.
Q: and you guys never changed a pick after reading what Mel Kiper says?
JM: we used his information. There's a lot of great draft books out there, but no. You make the pick based on what you see, so…
Q: Coach, does it feel different being on this side of the table?
JM: it's a lot different. It's a 180-degrees different. And I like the fact that I have the experience that I have in NFL to be able to help these kids as they go forward. And it's not only the ones that are trying to decide if they're going to come out in the draft, but it's the ones that are seniors, that have used up their eligibility. I'm trying to help them process the information of finding an agent. I've dealt with every agent there is. We'll be very involved in helping them prepare for the All-Star games, prepare for the combine, prepare for the workouts. And I think the fact that our staff and Coach [Sal] Alosi have vast experience doing that is really an advantage for these kids.
Q: do you have like a rule or suggestion… like if they're projected a first rounder, you tell them to go or…
JM: no. The NFL will do a draft evaluation for them. I just will talk to them based upon my experience. Which is 25+ years of doing it, and what pro guys are looking for in a player and what level of development they need to be at. And there's a lot of factors that go into it. So hopefully they all stay. My gut feeling is that they'll all stay.
Q: what's your advice for Anthony Barr, given that he's so young at his position?
JM: yeah, I haven't had a chance to speak to Anthony in depth so until I do, I'll keep that to myself. But I'd like him to come back but once again, we want to do what's best for him.
Q: for Anthony, have you ever seen anything like that where someone is just off the board and now he's top 15, top 10?
JM: According to who? And that's what's legitimate is that you say that and because, you know, that's what you see and that's the only thing you have privy to so you don't want a guy making a decision based on that. Like I said, Mel Kiper and all these other guys, their boards are vastly different than the real boards. And the real boards haven't even been put together yet. They're just starting to gather the information that they need to make the decisions in terms of who they're going to draft.
But, no. I haven't seen anybody do what he's done. I hope all our guys come back because I think this is a special team that we're creating, and I want them all to have an opportunity to experience success at this level at the highest level. And I think we're capable of that as we go forward. You know, in my experience, college football is so fun. NFL football is fun, but it's a business. And when these guys step out of this arena and go to the next level, it changes dramatically in terms of their approach to the game. And, you know, when a lot of money is staring you in the face, it's hard to sometimes comprehend that, but it is true. And fortunately, guys like myself and coach [Jeff] Ulbrich and Adrian [Klemm] and the rest of us that have been in the NFL, can explain that to them and still let them know that we have their best interest in mind. We're not trying to convince them to go one way or the other. We're just going to present the truth to them. So it's a unique staff in that way. There's no staff in the NCAA that can say that.
Q: by what time do the underclassmen have to make up their mind to go pro or…
JM: I don't know. Do you guys know? I think I read like the 17th or something.
Q: It's after the bowls.
JM: But obviously we want them all to come back. Because like I said, I think we're building something really special, and I want them to be a part of it. Plus, the college experience. It's different now. When you're walking around campus as opposed to going into a building… It's really different.
Q: the media is nicer too.
JM: no comment.
Alright? Next Saturday, same time. It'll be much like it was today. So it'll be kind of fun.

Jennifer Garner made a departure from typical Hollywood moviemaking for her role as Dr. Eve Saks in Dallas Buyers Club – her wardrobe came from Goodwill and she went makeup-free.
"I am not someone who is driven by vanity. Even in ways that I should be. I'm not very good at the whole vanity thing," Garner, 41, told PEOPLE at a press day for the movie at the Four Seasons hotel in Los Angeles Monday.
"But I did love that [director] Jean-Marc Vallée came to me and said, 'I don't want you to look pretty.' He almost didn't give me the job because he just assumed . . . and I said, 'I don't care. Never touch my face with makeup. I don't care.' And he didn't. I never sat in the makeup chair."
The film takes place in the late 1980s, and Garner wears clothes from the period, but she was sure to point out that they weren't glamorous vintage pieces, and that her biggest costume concern was being able to breastfeed her son Samuel, who was an infant at the time.
"The clothes were from Goodwill. It's not like they were from a fancy vintage store or made to look vintage. They were straight up Goodwill, and I had this little baby. So, when I was in costume fittings, it was about, like, 'How can I get to my boobs?' And so I just could have cared less. It was great for me."
The film tells the story of an HIV-positive Texas man (played by Matthew McConaughey) who challenges the pharmaceutical companies and helps to provide medication and supplies to people with HIV.
McConaughey lost more than 40 pounds for the role and Garner said she tried to help him.
"I was there to support him, and Jared came in, and we all kind of went, 'Oh he's doing this. Okay. He's not joking around.'"
Let's start off the movie award season! Watch PEOPLE.com's exclusive live-streaming show with interviews from the red carpet of the Hollywood Film Awards on Monday, Oct. 21, starting at 9 p.m. ET.

Over the years, West Virginia has lost a lot to lawsuit abuse. Our state courts are often ranked last for legal fairness, and West Virginia has carried the unfortunate designation of a "judicial hellhole" for nearly a decade now.
Outrageous instances of "jackpot justice" and personal injury greed have driven thousands of jobs out of state. West Virginia's lack of a meaningful right of appeal alone has directly cost the state hundreds of jobs and more than $25 million in investment.
Frivolous lawsuit filings cost our school systems precious tax dollars, and have even jeopardized our parks and playgrounds. And a recent $91.5 million nursing care verdict could significantly impact long-term care for West Virginia seniors.
West Virginia Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse encourages local residents to join the fight against lawsuit abuse. With the support of more than 30,000 West Virginia households, West Virginia Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse is working to educate the public on the negative impact that lawsuit abuse has on our everyday lives.
West Virginia courts should be used for justice, not greed. Together we can put a stop to lawsuit abuse, before we lose too much. Please visit www.wvcala.org today to find out how you can help.

"Not baked goods, Professor, baked bads!" ~ The Tick
Honeybuns, have you been out in the high country lately? My friend and I went and snowshoed on Hurricane Ridge just south of Port Angeles yesterday (we had planned to ski, but the lack of snow sent us in pursuit of alternate adventures). It was GLORIOUS! The sun was out up high, and all of the peaks were visible. It was an awesome day. The snow was really firm, so the snowshoes were unnecessary, hiking boots with some sort of ice-traction-device and poles would have been plenty. You should try and get up if you can.
I absolutely love Hurricane Ridge and haven't been there in way too long! Looks like there is a road trip in my future. You did take a camera, right?
Christmas morning breakfast has traditionally been Canadian bacon and scones. Since wheat flour is not friendly to me any more, we are going to have ottercat's almond flour biscuits instead.Yum!
Last night's sleep was not .........hmm.......happening? I drove with a friend to SeaTac airport to drop her dog off to fly to the east Coast. So, a two hour drive from my house, got to the airport at 9:30 pm, hunted for delta Cargo until 10:30 pm as the Delta website had the wrong address. Got the dog squared away and drove home again. Keep in mind that I usually fall asleep at 8:30 pm. We made it to my house at 1:00am. True to form, getting to bed earlier did not enable me to sleep longer. I was up at 5 am. Ask me how I feel right now.
I took a good look in the mirror after my shower yesterday and saw ripply fat where I hadn't before. My first thought was "I need to stop the heavy cream" thinking that it was from putting weight on. I realized that those places are not where i usually put weight on when I'm gaining and those spots show no increase. Huh? Could it be that I am losing fat enough that buried stuff is showing up?
My life has settled down enough that I can resume RPR's and my normal activities. No more weight restrictions! Post-holiday is when I get the bulk of my outside chores done for the year. I always say "Spring starts December 26th." Everyone thinks I'm crazy but I worked outside in the nursery industry my entire career so it seems normal to me to dive right in after Christmas. I have a lot of brush cutting and hauling to do this year so I should get a decent workout. I do need to start thinking about Primal Fitness as well. Some of my muscle groups get plenty of workout. Others, not so much. There is a family wedding in June and I would love to feel pulled together by then.
It was such a joy having Christmas Eve dinner at my sister's house. Appetizers were meat and cheese, dinner was ham, sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts. So easy to stay Primal.
I really should have eaten a full breakfast, though. I ate light in the morning because we were supposed to have an early dinner. Well....it stretched out to three hours later than anticipated and I grazed more than I should have.With the holidays wrapping up I'll be getting back on track soon.
Even though the scale shows I have put on weight, itisn't going on in the same places it did before PB. Interesting. Now, instead of fat pads on my hips, belly and thighs I have ripply subcutaneous fat everywhere. It will be interesting to see how it changes now that I can move around more and lift any weight I want. Yard cleanup starts tomorrow!!
I was given Paleo Comfort Foods for Christmas! So far I have gone through it twice, read it cover to cover and have a few recipes targeted to try right away.
Now that Christmas day is behind me I can start the grand decluttering process so I can finish painting the living room so I can have my house back. New Year's day I will clean the fridge, pantry and freezers of any foods non-primal. Why keep it if we don't eat it??
Not preparing was definitely a problem for me on Christmas day too, but I also chose to cheat because dammit I wanted those cookies! Sadly my mom got light egg nog and it was not very good.
I just ordered myself Paleo Comfort Foods with a gift card I got and I'm glad to hear someone else here likes it! I'm looking forward to trying out some of the recipes, as my boyfriend is definitely a fan of comfort foods.
Depression Lies
Oh, I so much want to try these recipes that I went to the natural foods store today and picked up several of the ingredients that I did not have yet. The only thing that disappoints me has nothing to do with the cookbook itself. Some of the tastiest looking recipes have curry in them and DH doesn't like curry. Bummer.
We've been mixing our eggnog with half and heavy cream. I used to like the store bought stuff but it is just too sweet any more. I grew up on homemade eggnog and it is so easy to make that i think I'll go back to making it next year.
My mental attitude is great! I think having the kitchen closer to done and having the last Christmas gift shipped off today has taken a load off my mind. Now, to take a load off my body!

You need a Gamecube memory card. The inbuilt Gamecube of the Wii is something quite different. The Wii itself switches off and the Gamecube starts.
So i am a long time fan. and i cant wait untill Brawl comes out. But i have only played meele once (i dont have a game cube) then i found that the wii IS a game cube also. But i was wondering. If i buy meele, can i save the game on my wii, or do i have to have a gamecube memory chip?

feel free to add me to your Wii, but don't forget to PM mehow about some rep for good postsThe search function is your friend. Do not ignore your friends. They get cancer and die and it is your fault.
I hate that you can't go back to the Wii menu from a GC game.

So saying i am playing SSBM and i get tired and i want to go back to the wii menu to make a new Mii or something. I would have to restart the wii itself?
yeah you would
the mario that's roomed with mush
my wii is not connected to the internet, so i can't play brawl online for a bit....please do not spam inbox with friend code requests
why would when playing melee, right in it, you get bored, and out of the blue, you want to make a mii?
Well..I would be playing Meele Because i love the series, though i have only played once. And i want to play meele so when brawl come out i can dominate turnaments. And lets just say while i was playing meele i was getting head, and it was to hard to concentrate to play meele, so i wanted to do something with the wii while getting my dick sucked, and i decided making a mii was easiest

Toshiba Chromebook 2: 13-inch Full HD IPS Display
Subject: General Tech, Systems | September 9, 2014 - 10:57 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: toshiba, Chromebook, chromebook 2
Somehow, I heard about Toshiba's $120, Windows 8.1 tablet but not their Chromebook 2. This ChromeOS-based laptop will have a choice between one of two 13.3-inch displays. The entry level is standard HD while the premium model is upgraded with a 1080p, IPS monitor. Prices range from $249.99 to $329.99. It is expected to be available on October 5th.
On the low end, you are looking at a browser-only device with 2GB of RAM, and Intel Celeron processor, 802.11ac, HDMI out, an HD webcam, two USB ports (one 2.0 and one 3.0), and an SD card slot. The higher-end device is the same, except with the better screen and double the RAM (4GB). At $330, that is a pretty good deal if you can live in Google Chrome day-in and day-out. Of course, this raises concerns about browser lock-in because you are buying a device with only one choice. That said, you are doing the same if you buy iOS, FirefoxOS, or Windows RT devices, so it is not a complaint about ChromeOS, specifically.
As stated, the Toshiba Chromebook 2 will be available October 5th, starting at $249.99.
ASUS ZenBook UX305 Will Be Based on Core M (Broadwell)
Subject: General Tech, Systems, Mobile | September 9, 2014 - 01:49 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Intel, asus, core m, broadwell-y, Broadwell, 14nm, ultrabook
This will probably be the first of many notebooks announced that are based on Core M. These processors, which would otherwise be called Broadwell-Y, are the "flagship" CPUs to be created on Intel's 14nm, tri-gate fabrication process. The ASUS ZenBook UX305 is a 13-inch clamshell notebook with one of three displays: 1920x1200 IPS, 1920x1200 multi-touch IPS, or 3200x1800 multi-touch IPS. That is a lot of pixels to pack into such a small display.
While the specific processor(s) are not listed, it will use Intel HD Graphics 5300 for its GPU. This is new with Broadwell, albeit their lowest tier. Then again, last generation's 5000 and 5100 were up in the 700-800 GFLOP range, which is fairly high (around medium quality settings for Battlefield 4 at 720p). Discrete graphics will not be an option. It will come with a choice between 4GB and 8GB of RAM. Customers can also choose between a 128GB SSD, or a 256GB SSD. It has a 45Wh battery.
Numerous connectivity options are available: 802.11 a, g, n, or ac; Bluetooth 4.0; three USB 3.0 ports; Micro HDMI (out); a 3.5mm headphone/mic combo jack; and a microSD card slot. It has a single, front-facing, 720p webcam.
In short, it is an Ultrabook. Pricing and availability are currently unannounced.
Toshiba Encore Mini Is Windows 8.1 for $119.99
Subject: General Tech, Systems, Mobile | September 6, 2014 - 06:03 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: toshiba, tablet, cheap tablet, cheap computer, x86, Windows 8.1
While you should only get a cheap PC if you have a need for one, Toshiba is selling a $120 tablet with Windows 8.1 and a quadcore, Intel Atom processor. It also includes a single year of Office 365 Personal, which contains Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, Access, an 1TB of OneDrive storage (normally $69 or twelve installments of $7/mo).
While RAM has not been announced, it contains 16GB of storage, expandable with a microSDXC card of up to 128 GB. It is based on a 7-inch, 1024x600 multi-touch display. Of course, 16GB of internal storage is about as low as you can have Windows 8.1 be installed within. In fact, it is the minimum requirements for 32-bit (64-bit requires 20 GB). You will not be fitting too many applications on your main drive.
The tablet also has a front-facing webcam and a back-facing 2 megapixel camera for photos and video.
The Toshiba Encore Mini is available now for an MSRP of $119.99.
Lenovo Shows Off New Y70 Touch Notebook and ERAZER Desktop Gaming PCs
Subject: Systems | September 4, 2014 - 03:42 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: y70 touch, Lenovo, haswell, gaming notebook, gaming, Erazer
Yesterday, Lenovo unveiled two new gaming systems at IFA in Berlin. The new Y70 Touch is a 17-inch gaming notebook while the Erazer X310 and Erazer X315 are mid-tower desktops. All three systems will be available later this month.
The Y70 Touch is Lenovo's first desktop replacement notebook with a touchscreen. The 25.9mm thick notebook features a 17.3" 1080p display, backlit keyboard, and JBL-powered stereo speakers (with subwoofer). It can be configured with up to an Intel Haswell i7 processor, NVIDIA GTX 860M GPU with 4GB RAM, 16GB of DDR3 system memory, and 1TB solid state drive (SSD). (Storage options include 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB SSD options.) Lenovo is including an external disc drive with the gaming PC which was left out of the chassis itself to maintain its slim form factor and to reduce weight.
The Y70 Touch gaming notebook starts at $1,299 and will be available in the US later this month.
If desktops are more your style, Lenovo is now offering up the Erazer X310 and X315 mid-tower PCs. The X310 and X315 will share the same black mid-tower chassis but will use different internal hardware. the X310 with Intel Haswell CPUs will be available worldwide while the AMD APU-powered X315 will be exclusive to North America.
The ERAZER X310/X315 case is all black with a stealthy angular front panel design that hosts two 5.25" bays and a blue LED-backlit power button. The X310 can be configured with up to an Intel Haswell i7 CPU while the X315 supports AMD "Kaveri" APUs up to the A10 series (e.g. A10 7850K). Users can choose up to a NVIDIA GTX 760 (2GB) or AMD Radeon R9 255 (2GB) graphics card. The mid-tower has four PCI slots and in theory could support further DIY upgrades but GPU length would be limited and the power supply may need to be upgraded as well. Further, both systems feature up to 32GB system memory and a maximum of 4TB mechanical hard drive, 2TB hybrid hard drive or 256GB solid state storage.
The new ERAZER X310 and X315 desktops will be available shortly starting at $599.

MINIX Neo Z64 Is x86-64 and $129
Subject: General Tech, Systems | September 3, 2014 - 07:23 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: fanless, htpc, windows, Android
Because fanless and cheap PCs are awesome, MINIX is launching the Neo Z64. Priced at $129 USD, it will contain an Intel Atom Z3635F SoC with 2GB of DDR3L and 32GB of eMMC internal storage. The device will ship loaded with Android 4.4.4 (KitKat) but is compatible with Windows 8.1, if you have a license for it.
Externally, the device features a microSD card slot (maximum size not specified), one 10/100Mbps Ethernet port, two USB 2.0 ports, an IR receiver (with remote), and HDMI 1.4. Note that HDMI is the only audio outputs on this device, which could be tricky if you want to run it as something other than a home theater PC (if you do not have a USB sound card that is compatible with your chosen OS). Lastly, it also has 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless support.
This is still a significant price premium over some other devices, like a Roku, but could be useful for some. The lack of any SteamOS mention is a bit disconcerting, given that the free OS could be applied to turn the device into an In-Home Streaming target (or host of simple, Linux-compatible games, like Super Meat Boy). Hopefully, future products will consider Valve's home theater platform.
The MINIX Neo Z64 will be available in October for $129.
Puget Systems Offering X99-Based Deluge XL Gaming PCs
Subject: Systems | September 3, 2014 - 02:39 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: X99, puget systems, Puget, pre-built, Intel, Haswell-E, gaming
Puget Systems has joined the X99 fray with its Deluge XL gaming PC. The new system joins the existing Deluge which is based around Haswell and the Z97 chipset. This high end, liquid cooled, PC starts at $3,920.67 and is available now.
The Deluge XL features a Fractal Design Define XL R2 chassis, ASUS X99 Deluxe motherboard, up to an Intel Core i7 5960X processor, 16GB DDR4-2133 memory, single and multi-GPU options from NVIDIA and AMD, multiple storage options that include SSDs and mechanical drives, and a bottom mounted EVGA SuperNOVA P2 1,000W power supply to drive it all. Both the CPU and graphics card(s) are liquid cooled in a custom water loop comprised of a Koolance PMP-400 pump, 3/8" clear tubing (with an in-line flow meter), Koolance CPU-380 processor waterblock, and Koolance GPU waterblock(s). Users can further elect to upgrade the thermal paste to Arctic Cooling MX-2 and upgrade and/or add additional case fans. A blue LED lighting kit is available as an optional add-on along with other accessories. The Deluge XL can be configured with the Ubuntu Linux 14.04, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 operating system.
The base model comes with a GTX 780 graphics card and 500GB mechanical hard drive which does leave something to be desired. The motherboard is one of the highest end Haswell-E models out there and the PSU is up to the task of running almost any hardware, however. Switching out the above mentioned GPU and HDD for an AMD Radeon R9 290 and a 250GB Samsung 840 EVO respectively brings the price up to $4,087.10.
It's not cheap, but it is powerful and for some enthusiasts the simplified support along with not needing to spend time researching and building (and doing good cable management!) makes a pre-built system worth it. Puget is not the only game in town though, and other boutique system builders are rolling out their own X99-based PCs as well. Keep an eye on PC Perspective for more news!
Falcon Northwest Offering X99 Based PCs In Three Form Factors
Subject: Systems | September 1, 2014 - 01:06 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: X99, system builder, SFF, Intel, Haswell-E, falcon northwest
Haswell-E is official and components supporting the new X99 platform are flooding the market (or at least your news feed!). Intel's latest chip is not just for the DIY crowd, however. Boutique system builders have started announcing their refreshed lineups. First up is Falcon Northwest which has refreshed its product lineups to feature Haswell-E in small form factor (Micro ATX), mid-tower, and full tower systems.
Falcon Northwest has updated the Mach V, Talon, and FragBox PCs to include Haswell-E, updated X99 chipset motherboards, up to 64GB of DDR4 memory, and the latest connectivity options such as at least six USB 3.0 ports and up to 10 SATA III 6Gbps ports.
Users will be able to configure the refreshed models with any of Intel's launch CPUs: the six core i7 5820K, hexacore i7 5930K, and flagship 8-core i7 5960X (our review). All three processor options will come with a liquid cooler and optional overclock.

Per the press blast, Falcon Northwest President Kelt Reeves had the following to say about Intel's new enthusiast desktop platform:
"In our 23 years of building high-end PCs, I can't ever remember seeing this much new tech hitting at the same time." said Kelt Reeves, president of Falcon Northwest. "Our fall desktop lineup of Intel X99-based systems with 8-core CPUs, 10 SATA ports, 12 USB 3.0 ports, and 64 gigs of DDR4 memory make the systems we built even a year ago look like antiques. Intel X99 is that big of a leap forward."
The new systems can be configured with various storage, graphics card, and case/aesthetical options much like their predecessors. The newer platform which supports more processor power, 40 PCI-E 3.0 lanes, USB 3.0, Thunderbolt 2, and DDR4 (which uses less power and offers up more bandwidth versus DDR3) is the notable factor here.
The small form factor (and LAN party friendly) FragBox PC starts at $2,313. The mid-tower Talon and full tower Mach V start at $2,330 and $3,021 respectively. You can find the updated custom built boxes on the Falcon Northwest website.
While I would not go as far as Mr. Reeves, I do think Haswell-E noticeably improves upon Ivy Bridge-E and it brings hardware to bear that will be most welcomed by professionals in workstations and servers that can take advantage of the power. For enthusiasts and gamers, it also represents a much waited-for trickle down of technology from the Xeon lineup of an Intel chip with 8 physical cores to consumers at a price that is relatively affordable (heh).
Are you excited for Haswell-E? Will you be upgrading or carrying on with your current setup? Here's hoping Broadwell-E (or whatever the next generation ends up being called, of course) brings the 8 core monster to the $400 space so my i7 860 can finally rest and graceful Linux test box retirement before I end up killing it from too much time overclocked and over-volted ;).
A Haswell powered ZBox
Subject: Systems | August 28, 2014 - 01:46 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: SFF, zotac, zbox, zbox ID92. haswell
The Zotac Zbox ID92 is not quite as small as the PI320 pico at 7.4" x 7.4" x 2" (188 x 188 x 51 mm) nor as inexpensive as it ships for $486 sans memory, storage and OS. However with a 2.9GHz Core i5-4570T is significantly more powerful and the HD4600 GPU will allow you to enjoy some light gaming and to enjoy 4K content with an appropriate display. With both SATA and mSATA the storage subsystem is more agile and also upgradeable as are the two SO-DIMM slots. The Tech Report quite liked this device for media but suggest those intending to spend more time gaming spend an extra $100 on the Zbox EN760 with its GTX860M.
"In recent months, we've reviewed two Gigabyte mini-PCs with Haswell inside. In light of those experiences, we figured we'd take a look at one of Zotac's newest Zbox systems: a 7.4" x 7.4" x 2" machine with a 35W Haswell processor, room for dual storage devices, and generous connectivity."

ASUS Quietly Refreshes Its Transformer T100 Tablet With New Hardware and Color Options
Subject: General Tech, Systems, Mobile | August 28, 2014 - 01:30 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: Windows 8.1, transformer t100, Intel, Bay Trail, Atom Z3775, asus
Following rumors earlier this summer, ASUS has quietly refreshed its Transformer T100 tablet. ASUS is now offering T100 tablet versions in multiple colors with a faster Intel Bay Trail processor as well as a version that retains the original SoC but adds a 500GB hard drive to the keyboard dock. I have been keeping an eye on the T100 since it first launched almost a year ago at IFA 2013, and have been eagerly waiting for the rumored refresh. Fortunately, that wait is now over because the updated Transformer T100s are finally starting to appear and be available for purchase on retailers' websites (first at Tiger Direct, then Amazon, and others now).
The T100 is now available in red and white as well as the original gray. The red and white SKUs feature a higher end Bay Trail SoC while the updated gray SKU comes with a 500GB mechanical hard drive nested inside the keyboard dock. The table below lists the model numbers for the new tablets. I should note that there are conflicting specifications at different retailers for the model numbers listed, which makes this under-the-radar refresh so frustrating, but after a bit of digging I believe the specifications to be accurate and any conflicting information to simply be errors on the part of those retailers.
|Model Numbers
|Internal Storage
|Price (Amazon)
|Price (MSRP)
|Intel Z3775
|64GB eMMC
|Intel Z3775
|64GB eMMC
|Intel Z3775
|64GB eMMC
|Intel Z3740
|64GB eMMC + 500GB HDD
|Intel Z3740
|32GB eMMC + 500GB HDD
The new colors are nice (I'm partial to the red T100), but the upgraded processor is the truly interesting bit about this Windows tablet (which won PC Perspective's "Best Hardware of 2013" award). The original T100 launched with an Intel Atom Z3740 SoC an the refreshed Transformer T100 uses a higher clocked Atom Z3775. The Z3775 is a higher-end Intel Bay Trail processor with four Silvermont CPU cores clocked at 1.46GHz that can boost to as high as 2.39GHz. The HD Graphics GPU retains the same base clockspeed as the Z3740 but has a higher turbo frequency of 778MHz (versus 667MHz on the Z3740). The table below lists the specifications of the two chips. The new SoC has significantly higher CPU clocks and a decent boost to potential GPU horsepower (thermals permitting).
|Intel Atom SoC
|CPU Cores
|4 x "Silvermont" Cores
|4 x "Silvermont" Cores
|CPU Clockspeeds (Base/Boost)

|311MHz / 667MHz
|311MHz / 778MHz
|L2 Cache
|Memory Support
|4GB 1066MHz
|4GB 1066MHz
|Process Node
|Tray Price
The refreshed T100 has an MSRP of $399 USD for the red and white versions with 64GB eMMC storage and gray SKU with 32GB internal storage and 500GB keyboard dock though retail prices are slightly less than that at the time of writing. The Transformer T100 with 64GB eMMC and additional 500GB hard drive has a retail price of around $450 but the MSRP is unknown.
If you have been holding off, now is a good time to pick up an updated version for a small price premium (or an older version at a discount!). However, if you already own a T100, the relatively minor update will is a hard to justify upgrade (you would likely be better off waiting on Cherry Trail-based devices with better battery life or other improvements as possible upgrades).
Broadwell Intel NUCs Being Developed. Rumored Q1 2015?
Subject: General Tech, Systems | August 27, 2014 - 08:27 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Intel, nuc, Broadwell
The Intel NUC is their small computing form factor, packing what is equivalent to an Ultrabook into a chassis that is smaller than a CD spool. The first release came with Ivy Bridge and it was refreshed with Haswell about a year later. FanlessTech has got a hold a... semi-redacted (?)... slideshow presentation that outlines various models and features. Six models are expected, spread out between Q4 2014 (Haswell), Q1 2015 (Broadwell Core iX), and Q2 2015 (Broadwell Celeron).
Note that a typical Intel NUC contains fans, although the company has released a fanless Bay Trail-based model (and third parties have made their own, custom cooled models based on the form factor). I expect that FanlessTech covers it for those two reasons; it does not mean that these models will be passively cooled. In fact, the product matrix claims that none of these new products will be.
The six models are broken into three code names.
Both Maple Canyon and Rock Canyon cover the Core i3 and i5 processor segments. Both include NFC, an optional 2.5" drive, four external USB 3.0 ports, LAN, a SATA 3 port, and so forth. They begin to diverge in terms of display outputs, however. Rock Canyon, which is targeted at home theater, home office, and gaming, includes one mini HDMI (1.4a) and one mini DisplayPort (1.2) output. Maple Canyon, on the other hand, includes two mini DisplayPort (version unknown, probably also 1.2) connections. While I do not have a slide for Maple Canyon, replacing the mini HDMI for a mini DisplayPort suggests that it will be targeted more at kiosks and other situations where monitors, rather than TVs, will be used.
One Haswell Core i5-based Maple Canyon NUC is expected for Q4 2014. Maple Canyon with Broadwell Core i3, Maple Canyon with Broadwell Core i5, Rock Canyon with Broadwell Core i3, and Rock Canyon with Broadwell Core i5 are all expected in Q1 2015. All models will accept up to two DIMMs of memory (16 GB max).
Only one Pinnacle Canyon model is listed. It will be based on Broadwell Celeron, allow up to 8 GB of memory (1 DIMM), and include four USB 3.0 ports (external). Its display configuration is significantly different from Rock Canyon and Maple Canyon, however. It will have one, full-sized HDMI (1.4a) and one VGA output. It will launch in Q2 2015.
