Angulo Ready To Move On From Worst Year Of His Life
By Jake Donovan
It's been a miserable 12 months for Alfredo Angulo, to say the least.
Monday will mark one year to the day of his sixth-round knockout loss to James Kirkland. Angulo had the Texan down and nearly out in the opening round, but was instead floored himself and eventually stopped in a sensational war.
The crushing defeat was Angulo's last fight to date, though hardly the worst part of the past 12 months of his life. This year began with the Mexican slugger being held in El Centro Detention Center due to overstaying his U.S. Visa. The process was believed to be a simple one, but it would be another seven months before Angulo would finally see daylight.
"I went through a very difficult time," Angulo reveals. "I've proven that I'm ready for anything."
Angulo (20-2, 17KO) was sprung in August, at which point his handlers began making plans for his ring return. That day comes November 10, when he faces Raul Casarez (19-2, 9KO) in the Showtime-televised opener live from the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles.
The show's headliner pits Abner Mares and Anselmo Moreno in a super bantamweight title fight. Also on the televised portion is Luis Santa Cruz in a bantamweight title defense against Victor Saleta.
The past few months have been spent with newly hired trainer Virgil Hunter, who has become the cornerman of choice as of late. Angulo's reintroduction to the ring was a complete makeover, understandable considering what he'd been through for more than half of 2012.
"The reality is that they didn't let me train in there. Simple things… they didn't let me have tennis shoes for two months," Angulo recalls. "The only thing I did to stay physically fit was play handball, for two hours a day."
All told, it was a 12-month period to forget. Angulo is ready to do just that, now that his house is fully in order.
"I'm here legally," Angulo states. "The process is behind me. All I have to do is think about the future and move forward."
Winning his first fight in well over a year will make for a great first step towards reaching that goal.

2010 Chateau l'Evangile Pomerol
Select Quantities
Item #34093
Check Availability »
- Size: 750ml
- Type: Red Wine
- Varietal: Red Bordeaux Blend
- Country: France
- Region: Bordeaux, Pomerol
"Another spectacular effort from L'Evangile, the 2010 is a close rival to the 2009 and should be fascinating to compare with that vintage over the next 30 or so years. Stunningly rich and black/purple in color, the 2010 L'Evangile offers up the tell-tale floral note as well as black raspberry jam intermixed with cassis and kirsch. There are also ethereal floral notes and a hint of background oak. The pH is slightly above average (3.7 versus the pH of 4.0 that the 2009 and 2000 possessed). This is a massive, rich, very impressive L'Evangile, and readers should take note of the "+" in my rating, which could certainly push this wine way up there. Remarkably, I was shocked when I learned that this wine was aged in 100% new oak, as the oak is a background element in this blockbuster l'Evangile. Forget it for 3-5 years, and drink it over the following 30-40. " -Robert Parker

Every spring there's at least one young player from each MLB team that threatens to lay waste to the plans formulated by the front office by doing the unthinkable:
Making the team.
Last year in Cincinnati, that player was almost Dave Sappelt. All he did was hit .564, homer three times, drive in 12 runs and play flawless defense. Sappelt was eventually left off the Opening Day roster.
Baltimore's Zach Britton, however, was not. After tossing 20 innings of three-run ball, the left-hander made the most of an injury to Brian Matusz. He made the roster, started 28 games and garnered some early-season Rookie of the Year consideration.
There are no doubt bound to be some Brittons this year. Some are obvious, such as Cincinnati catcher Devin Mesoraco, who has been handed the reins to a talented Reds rotation. Likewise, lefty Drew Pomeranz will likely start the season in the Rockies rotation.
Some will be less obvious, and some will be totally off the wall and catch us asking, "Who the hell is Atahualpa Severino?"
Without further ado, let's examine who the prospect is going to be that makes your team's Opening Day roster.

Mellieb's review of TRESemme Keratin Smooth Conditioner

I was pleasantly surprised with this shampoo & conditioner since all others I've tried in the past with keratin have left my hair dry. This shampoo/conditioner combo is doing a great job of smoothing my hair and giving moisture without making it oily (do note I have thick/dry hair). So far I'm loving it and would repurchase.
Even if this doesn't work out for you, it's no huge loss since it's so cheap and easy to find.

Kanzius researcher's hearing delayed
A preliminary hearing has been delayed for the lead researcher on the Kanzius project.
Steven Curley, M.D., was scheduled to have his preliminary hearing today in Houston before Harris County District Court Judge Maria T. Jackson. The hearing has been postponed until Feb. 26, a court worker said.
No reason was given for the postponement.
Curley, 57, and an associate have been charged with unlawful interception, a felony, for tracking Curley's ex-wife with a computer program.
The doctor continues to work on the late John Kanzius' experimental cancer treatment device at Baylor College of Medicine.

|A first. I am from Ohio, have lived in Denver, South, for about a year. Girlfriend and I decided to begin after much encouragement from her. We went and made it up and back. Pretty good accomplishment, for me. Out of shape within reason and have smoked a pack-a-day since turning 20 y.o. Definitely reconsidering the wicked habit. As known, Mt. Bierstadt is very popular and for very good reasons. Beautiful. The hike down and out was the roughest for me, especially the last bit with the wooden bridges across the swamp-marsh. I was just done and ready to be not walking anymore. I look forward to the next time.

|Meetup.com Independence Day hike. This was my 5th time on Bierstadt. The place was a madhouse, as expected. Full parking lots and tons of hikers, but that's all right. The weather was good, a little windy at times, but sunny. There were a few slower hikers in the group, and one turned back before the summit. This was the 1st 14er of 3 in our group.

|Woke up around 4am and made it to Evans trailhead around 6am. Met a hiker at the lot and we decided to hike together. We hit the trail at 6:30am, made it through the swampy areas easily and over the still frozen snow due to our early start. It was slow going since this was my 2nd 14er and it was her first. We made the summit at 9:45am and got back to the car at noon before a storm rolled our way. Great day!

|Solo adventure in every version of inclement weather- snow, hail, wind, freezing rain, large hail, thunder, and intermittent white outs. Good fun on the summit ridge and good time given the conditions. Met up with another solo guy and traded beating the path through snow. Only bad part was freezing creek crossing with weak snow banks. Dropped thigh deep, but gaiters actually kept water out of my boots.

|I had planned to climb Capitol Peak this weekend, but I decided to play it safe. It was clear all day, but cold in the morning. There was a little snow on the ground, more is sure to come. Plenty of hikers on the trail, but not as crazy as a typical summer weeekend. The whole trip took about 4.5 hours, with a break of about 30 minutes on the summit. This was my 4th time on Bierstadt.

|This was my attempt at a 2nd 14,000 footer and bringing a friend for her first. We had a beautiful day despite a late start: 9:00. The trails were crowded but everyone was friendly. Conditions were great and easy footing. We were just about at the turn for the summit, 13,750 feet, when a bolt of lightening struck the summit sending everyone down. Another bold hit just to the east of us and dark clouds enveloped the mountain. I had crouched down hoping for the storm to pass but there was no indication it would and hoards of people and dogs started hurrying back down. Hail started in earnest and stung any exposed skin as well as filled the trail with ice and the nice footing was complicated as the trail turned to mud mixed with ice. Everyone encouraged each other down the mountain and emphatically shared the feeling of defeat as many of us never got to summit that day. Those who did summit as the lightening struck were shaken, hair had stood on ends for some and you could hear the electricity crackly in the cairns. Am saddened to miss the peak but thankful no one was hurt that day. Definitely a nice climb and will revisit it someday...

Co. administrator arrest, Board action stirs controversy
Tunica County administrator Michael Thompson was arrested last Wednesday, February 12, by local sheriff's deputies and held in the Tunica County Jail for several hours on an outstanding warrant from another county.
Thompson, 36, was booked into the jail at 7:39 p.m. for driving with a suspended or revoked driver's license and on a warrant from Montgomery County for Failure to Appear.
According to a Feb. 13 release from the Tunica County Sheriff's Department, Tunica County Justice Court Judge Louise Linzy confirmed the warrant with a judge in Montgomery County, but "an arrest warrant was not sent and Michael Thompson was able to post bond on the charge of driving while license suspended."

I've been making things as long as I can remember, thanks to my Mom who is a great seamstress! My favorite has been quilting for 25 years now and now that my husband and I are empty nesters I am enjoying the opportunity to expand my expertise and creativity in this art. Pattern writing is a new outlet for me and I am enjoying sharing my creations. I especially love making patterns that are encouraging for beginner quilters - I try to make sure my directions are clear and well illustrated to take the frustration out of quilting and make it a joyful process!
Thanks so much for looking at my patterns!
Are you ready for a short, but fun quilt block of the month? Just 5 classic blocks and finishing instructions make a great quilt that you can have finished before Christmas. Making it in Christmas fabrics is part of the fun, but you can always use your favorite fabrics to make it in any colors you desire. Each month will focus on a different technique.
This is the fouth block - Spinning Star. Four easy foundation pieces blocks put together around a center square with partial seam piecing. Looks complicated, but it is actually easy to complete!

text: Is Ed Sheeran checking into rehab? Ed Sheeran Wed-09-May-12 18:26 Share this Tell Us What You Think WTF 0 LOL 0 FAIL 0 OMG 0 HOT 0 CUTE 0 ] ED SHEERAN has laughed off rumours he's pulled out of his North American tour dates to check into rehab. The A Team hitmaker announced this week that he will no longer be supporting rockers Snow Patrol on their current trek across the U.S. and Canada as he's had to return to England for "personal reasons". His sudden cancellation has reportedly prompted U.K. tabloid editors to suggest that some sort of substance abuse treatment is to blame for the scrapped shows, but the star insists the claims are not true - he's tending to a family matter instead. In a Twitter.com post on Tuesday, he writes, "Apparently media are running a story tomorrow about how im coming home early to enter rehab, im missing 4 days of a tour to see my family... "But yeah, no rehab just yet, but i am going to legoland in a few weeks, so might need it after that". WENN.com You May Also Like ALL the pics of Ed Sheeran live at The Edge!

Respect Asotin County recently turned in signatures to get a Home Rule Charter on the November general election ballot. If the measure passes they'll need freeholders to start working on the charter immediately.
Civil Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Jane Risley presented a resolution that mirrors Yakima County's freeholder voting process to the commissioners. She explained to them that they have the final say for how freeholders could be incorporated into the county government.
"If you have an idea or another idea the constitution is very clear that the legislative body is in complete control of how this goes forward," said Risley.
The commissioners will take written opinions on the draft and then a final resolution will be needed to be ready by next week. The commissioners are exploring three different options on how to elect the 18 freeholders into office, should the Home Rule Charter pass. The preliminary resolution states that if there aren't six valid candidates from each district, home rule cannot take place. Any freeholder elected will also be subject to follow the Public Disclosure Act.

PRICEVILLE, Ala. — A motorist was arrested last month and charged with driving under the influence (DUI) after he sideswiped a school bus full of special-needs students and then continued driving, WHNT reports.
A student had just disembarked the bus when the motorist, James Joshua Warren, rounded a curve in his car and struck the bus. Witnesses told the news outlet that the car then kept going, but only for a short distance — Warren pulled into his driveway, parked and went into his house.
Alabama state troopers later arrested Warren and charged him with DUI, which was not his first offense. No students were injured in the incident.

Toddler drownings
Yesterday saw the heartbreaking news of yet another toddler death in a backyard swimming pool. Fifteen-month-year old Axel Moore drowned after he somehow got into the fenced-off pool area at his home in Sydney. Sadly this is no isolated incident. More than 10 children have drowned in Australia in the past few weeks and a report released last month by the Royal Life Saving Society found that 35 infants and toddlers drowned in the 2006-07 financial year, 16 of them in swimming pools.

Students from across NW Iowa met in Storm Lake on Saturday, Nov. 3 to audition for a spot in one of two honor bands for the district.
Competition is very stiff, so it is an honor to be selected for these prestigious ensembles.
All students selected are the finest musicians from their school districts, so it is great to have representation from our own district in this festival.
The NWIBA Honor Band Festival will be held on Jan. 5, at Morningside College in Sioux City.

IT WAS A breast-feeding mother who suffered the judgment of others that led to legislation signed into law yesterday giving working moms a leg up.
Councilman David Oh sponsored the bill after representing a woman who had a baby and returned to work but wanted to pump breast milk, which her employer allowed.
But, Oh said, "she was harassed [by colleagues] to the point where she was driven to quit her job.
"There's no reason why she should have been harassed and not allowed to express milk," Oh said of the case, which he handled as a lawyer before being elected to office. "This law protects women, and in doing so, it advances our society."

The global decline of pollinators (honey bees, bumble bees, solitary bees) has been a research topic for the last couple of years, as these insects play a pivotal role in crop and food production as well as for maintenance of plant biodiversity.
Scientists discuss several factors involved in this decline, among them habitat loss, diseases, parasites, beekeeping techniques, and for agricultural areas plant protection products. Especially plant protection products have received considerable public attention and regulatory agencies all over the world have indroduced new testing requirements for the environmental risk assessment of these substances.
For bumble bees (Bombus spp.) there have been only few guidelines available so far. To fill this gap, ibacon is currently developing testing designs and GLP-protocols for several additional bumble bee studies.
One of these study designs is the "Bumble bee study in tunnels under semi-field conditions". The protocol was adapted from the existing protocols for honey bee semi-field and field studies. Our intention was to develop suitable methodologies and to define appropriate endpoints for statistical evaluation.
The next meeting of the IOBC working group "Pesticides and Beneficial Organisms" will take place in Chania (Krete, Greece) in October 2016.
Ms. Angela Goßmann, Senior Study Director Non Target Arthropods at ibacon will participate in this meeting.

Yarlington Yurt - Somerset
Yarlington House
- Yurt for 4 from £99 per night (read our low price promise)
- 1 double, 1 twin
Suitable for children of all ages
Not suitable for pets
Sorry, pets are not permitted at Yarlington. Kids of all ages are welcome.
The Yarlington Yurt is an unusual two pod arrangement, with a king-sized double bed in the main yurt, and two single beds in a connected bedroom pod. It's magnificently eccentric and although perhaps unexpected within the grounds of such a
house, somehow seems to fit it perfectly. Count and Countess Charles de Salis have had a lot of fun with the décor and there can't be many yurts whose interior can be best described as 'late 18th Century with French influence'. (Apart from the gramophone which, though decorative, has sadly seen the end of its entertaining days.) Rugs, lamps, paintings and beautiful fabrics that used to adorn the main house now proudly fill the yurt. The fairy lights set into the canopy create an enchanting sense of sleeping under the stars and the wood-burner keeps things cosy all year round.
The kitchen and shower tent, set just next to the yurt, has been cleverly designed to make the best use of space and power; an ingenious accompaniment to the yurt living area, and the 'Thunderbox' compost loo is in a separate hut steps away. Mains electricity, hot running water and gas hobs, mean you can cook and eat in comfort whatever the weather. Seasonal produce is sometimes available from the kitchen garden's honesty box just behind you. The local farm shops stock a wealth of cheese, meat and of course, cider that's synonymous with Somerset. The grounds and gardens are full of wonders, but if the kids aren't interested in the apple pergola or the aisle of golden laburnum so popular with Yarlington's wedding guests, they can always arrange with Charles and Carolyn to have a dip in the family swimming pool. A fantastic local 'foodie' pub is a 15 minute walk and Stourhead and Longleat a short drive away.
Our guests say...
I wanted a unique experience for my wife's birthday and this delivered in spades - yurt was fantastic, comfortable with everything you needed (beds, fire, kitchen, shower). Our hosts, Carolyn and Charles were very welcoming, breakfast in their house was great and the tray of pears when we left was a lovely surprise. Weather was not on our side but we got to visit a lovely part of the world, stay in a glam yurt, meet interesting people and eat some great food - perfect!02/09/2016
We had a fabulous stay at Yarlington Yurt! It is absolutely stunning and so peaceful. We loved being able to let the children run and play. We would recommend it to everyone we know!19/08/2016
There was myself, my daughter and 2 grandchildren staying in the yurt - we had a lovely time - the hosts allowed use of their pool and it was just beautiful- really safe peaceful and quiet - I would definitely visit again !!01/07/2016
Camping, even glamping, requires a bit of a Famous Five pioneering spirit. But to camp with plentiful hot running water, power sockets in the tent, and a fridge/freezer, does balance nicely the experience of the outdoor loo! Personally I found the Thunderbox experience to be very exotic- moonlight over the wildflower meadow viewed from on high (my teenage daughter found it less so). The beds are comfy, the antiques quirky and fun, the wood burner effective and the location private and beautiful. The hosts were warm, generous and down-to-earth, giving us free rein over the luscious but not over-manicured gardens, and we even got to swim in the heated pool when the weather was kind to us. Yarlington is a good location for exploring- some good pubs in the area, especially The Queen's Arms at Corton Denham for food. The village pub is solid and friendly and just a hop away. Lovington's Bakery in Wincanton for cinnamon rolls, excellent pizza at At The Chapel in Bruton, Thai food in Castle Cary.30/05/2016
We had a fabulous time at Yarlington. The yurt was exceptionally cosy and well-appointed, the setting was idyllic and the hosts very congenial and welcoming. We intend to come back soon11/04/2016
4 of us stayed together for a girlie weekend. We loved it... the yurt was quirky and cosy and there was plenty of space for 4 of us. Charles and Carolyn were great hosts and we were very lucky to have beautiful weather..01/04/2016
Absolutely amazing! The yurt was utter luxury and the most comfortable bed either of us have ever slept in! The hot water was unfortunately not working due to a broken boiler, but Charles and Carolyn didn't hesitate to invite us to take a hot shower in their house which was wonderful! So many of our friends are now looking to book as a result of our Facebook ravings!04/12/2015
We are all three retired friends who like to do different things , hence the appeal of the yurt We were impressed at the concept - main living area, kitchen area and bathroom area. Loads of hot water and the log fire was great. Also there were two electric heaters for the cold nights. The thunderbolt toilet was an education! We were able to wander round the beautiful grounds at will. On the full day we walked using lanes and public footpaths to Castle Cary and back. We also took the opportunity to visit Stourhead.09/10/2015
Lovely place, sweet gardener who welcomed us, lovely wide space to ourselves, very private and safe02/10/2015
We had a wonderful time in the romantic yurt, the setting was beautiful and the whole place magical.18/09/2015
relaxing, quiet, enojyable17/08/2015
It far exceeded our expectations the Yurt was unique and so comfortable, Yarlington House and its grounds were spectacular, the kitchen garden was so amazing we ate ripe plums and picked blackcurrants. Our children played in the woods, climbed trees, collected bugs and played outside until late in the evening. We totally switched off from the hustle and bustle of life for four sunny days. It was beautiful, peaceful and very special holiday, one we won't forget and will do again. The staff and hosts were welcoming and helpful..we feel as though we have stumbled onto something truly special here.27/07/2015
This was a birthday treat for me from my two best friends and we wanted to do some sightseeing around Somerset so the location of the Yurt was perfect as it was close to Stonehenge, Glastonbury and Wooky hole. What an amazing place. The views were breathtaking and the lord and lady welcoming and friendly. The invitation to use their pool on the hottest day of the year was the highlight of the stay! We loved it and will definitely be back.01/07/2015
It was fabulous. A little bit of luxuriously getting back to basics.01/05/2015
lovely, just lovely. peaceful with welcoming hosts. made even better by the great bank holiday weather.06/04/2015
It was a lovely weekend getaway.27/03/2015
"It was utterly magical.Hosts, Caroline & Charles, were lovely and welcomed us into their slice of Eden. Yurt was perfectly suited to our two little boys who thought their bedroom was fab. They were fixated on the twinkly stars in the ceiling too.We only live a few miles away but we felt we're really "escaped". We especially loved the decor, everything had had so much care, thought and creativity lavished upon it. We'd love to come back in the summer"07/11/2014
"The stay was lovely and the yurt kitchen/shower and main room were all cleaned to a good standard. There was a little bit of obvious wear and tear around the place but not enough to complain about. The price was probably a little bit steep. I found the best uncomfy but my bf didn't so that was probably just down to personal preference. Would have been great if the owners had a little info pack just so we could be sure we were doing everything right, and also advertising some local things to do! Brilliant communication with the owners leading up to our stay and good directions on how to get to the yurt in the dark"31/10/2014
"We had a fabulous time. The yurt was great and the location was perfect."18/08/2014
"We had an amazing time. The location was stunning, beautiful grounds & the yurts were very well equipped we had everything we needed for the weekend. Waking up to just the birds singing, a view of the flower meadows & cooking breakfast on the BBQ - what more could you ask for? Plenty of green space for the kids to run around & play. The facilities were great & the owners very friendly & helpful. We will be back!"16/05/2014
"It was very restful and the accommodation was all that we had hoped for. The whole stay was great from the friendliness of the hosts right through to the location and the quality of the facilities. The ladies in our party were not so happy with the compost loo! The stay fully met our expectations - and more...."07/04/2014
"Great fun, especially the log burner warmth on a wet day."25/10/2013
"Yes, it was beautiful, peaceful and we had everything we needed for a lovely family break."04/10/2013
"We were only there three nights, but really enjoyed our stay. My seven year old son loved the outside compost 'Thunder Box' - mainly because he got to have his own torch! Even in my local area I don't let him roam out of my sight beyond the home, but both he and I felt perfectly happy for him to explore the Victorian 'Secret Garden and fetch some of the free fruit and veg left for us on the gardeners bench around the far side of the walled garden by himself. He also loved dragging the 'all terrain' luggage trolley around on his foraging trips. All three of us had fun using the pool up near the main house, with the kind permission of the owners. My young son made enough noise to be mistaken for a coach load of school children, but the owners were happy that he had so much fun."30/09/2013
"Location and the number of rooms - we have 2 small children but also wanted a bit of privacy. I would change nothing. The best thing were the great facilities at the Yurt."27/09/2013
"Even though it was in a remote location, we didn't feel totally alone - the gentleman that showed us around had fab knowledge and really welcomed us. I think the pool use gave us an added dimension that we couldn't find anywhere else and made it feel like we were "on holiday" as we are so used to travelling overseas instead of the UK."05/08/2013
"Total privacy in beautiful surroundings with use of the owners' outdoor pool. The separate kitchen/bathroom tent was fantastic and we also used the bbq and chimnea with the outdoor furniture."28/07/2013
"It was absolutely the perfect place to celebrate my best friend Lisa's special birthday. Carolyn and Charles are fantastic hosts and the yurt has to be experienced to fully appreciate how special it is. Complete seclusion and everything you could wish for....Heaven."13/07/2012
"Absolutely fantastic stay - even with some rain it was a wonderfully romantic retreat, lots to do in the area. amazing heated pool that the De Salis' let us use. everything you need is there or within arms reach.It was lovely to awake to the mooing cows in the next field!"08/06/2012
"We had a fantastic weekend at Yarlington Yurt. The yurt itself was lovely and more than lived up to our expectations. It was incredibly private and we found it very relaxing. Charles and Carolyn were very hospitable - they invited us to a jubilee celebration in the village which we thoroughly enjoyed. I particularly liked the fairy lights on the ceiling in the main yurt - it gave it a real magical feel. My eldest daughter (18yrs) did not like the compost toilet, but the rest of us were quite fascinated by it - it is an acquired taste!I would highly recommend this yurt to anyone who likes to get away from it all."01/06/2012
"Our stay was so wonderful. We couldn't recommend it highly enough. Charles and Carolyn were so welcoming and hospitable. We shall definitely be paying them a visit again. It was luxurious, and exactly as the pictures looked. A truly wonderful little haven in Wincanton."24/02/2012
"The Yurt is a work of art and the attention to detail is a delight. We were overwhelmed by the space, peace and tranquility. The Yurt is perfectly situated, only overlooked by a filed of friendly cows. I couldn't recommend a stay in this perfect location highly enough, we could both feel our blood pressure coming down as the stresses of the 'real world' disappeared. Please, Please visit - you will not regret it! The warm welcome from Carolyn and Charles was a huge bonus and we were even invited to watch the Royal Wedding in Yarlington House which made a great occasion great fun!"25/04/2011
Nigel & Judith
"peaceful, secluded and romantic setting with a well equiped kitchen and good washing facilities. This really was luxurious camping with charm. Watching the stars at night and listening to the wildlife, you could stay here and not see another being until you leave."01/04/2011
"The yurt was very beautiful to look at and comfortable. Good facilities, plenty of hot water and wood. Stylish and comfy."08/10/2010

D-Link Boxee Box media streamer (preview)
D-Link Boxee Box hands-on preview: What is the D-Link Boxee Box?
- HD streaming, two USB ports, SD card slot, support for online video streams, RF remote control, HMDI cable included
- Geographic location limits the amount of online content that can be viewed
Bottom Line
The D-Link Boxee Box offers plenty of online content that's worth watching, but it also has a lot of content that can't be watched here in Australia. Ultimately, you might find it frustrating if all you want to do is watch online video streams. However, if you purchase it with the primary intention of using it as a network streamer for local content, and secondarily for watching YouTube and other online services, you'll be satisfied.
Price$ 299.00 (AUD)
The D-Link Boxee Box is a stylish little media streaming device that has been designed to run the Boxee interface software. The D-Link Boxee Box can be connected to your TV using HDMI and it supports Full HD playback. The beauty of the Boxee Box is that not only can it play content from directly attached USB drives or network devices, it can also access a large range of video and audio content from the Web.
The hardware is relatively basic: the Boxee Box has two USB 2.0 ports, an SD card slot, 10/100 Ethernet, HDMI output, optical audio output and analog (RCA) audio output. On the inside it has specifications that are akin to a netbook; it features an Intel Atom CPU, Intel graphics, 1GB of RAM and it runs a Linux operating system. In addition to having an Ethernet port, integrated 802.11n Wi-Fi will let you connect to a home network wirelessly.
Boxee Box in action.
The Boxee Box has a 'submerged cube' design; it looks like a cube that has partially sunk into the surface it's sitting on. It looks a lot larger in promotional material than it actually is in real life. It has an attractive lime green logo that illuminates once you press the on button and this logo, along with the cooling fan for the CPU, which makes a slight whirring sound, is how you know the Boxee Box is switched on and operating. There is no LCD, nor any other indicator lights.
If you don't like the design of the Boxee Box (some of us think it looks very cool) then you can hide it somewhere in your TV cabinet permanently. It ships with a radio frequency remote control, rather than an infrared remote, so the Boxee Box doesn't have to be in line of sight of the remote control. The remote itself has two sides: one side with controls for navigating the interface and a QWERTY keyboard on the other, so that you can easily search for content or use the Boxee Browser.
Viewing content on the Boxee Box via popular apps.
When you first run the Boxee Box, you have to create an account or link it up to your Facebook account. This is because it is a social application that allows you to share what you watch with your contacts. It works with Facebook, Twitter and Google Buzz, although you're not forced to share information through these services if you don't want to — each video gives you the option of clicking an icon to share it with your friends.
Once you've created an account (or used Facebook) and logged in, you are then able to set up your TV screen's aspect ratio and size and let the Boxee Box scan your drives for content. Navigating around the Boxee interface isn't difficult as content is split up into categories — movies, TV shows, music, photos, apps and other files — and there is a virtual tonne of content that can be checked out online. However, not all of it can be accessed by Australians.
You can watch YouTube content without any problems, but you will run into problems when trying to access copyright-restricted content.
Because of regional copyright restrictions, not all of the content that is listed by the Boxee Box can be played. It's a very hit-and-miss process: you will see plenty of videos listed on the screen and you'll have to click on each one to see if it will play; only those that have been independently released or those that are available from Australian content providers will be playable. Basically, anything that you can play on a content provider's Web site should also be playable through the Boxee Box. As an example, content from Comedy Central won't be playable, but content from ABC's iView will be.
YouTube and Justin.tv videos, TED Talks, and practically any site that has video content can be accessed through the Boxee Box; furthermore, you can view content by subscribing to RSS feeds, installing apps that have pointers to content (there are apps that have content just for kids, for example), or just use the Boxee Browser to watch content directly from Web sites.
The Boxee Box supports almost every video and audio format known to man and its performance is great. High-definition videos look crystal clear, they play back without any stuttering and the audio quality will be sublime if you've hooked up a good set of speakers. The Box supports SMB (Samba) shares and Windows shared folders and it will find any content that is shared on your home network.
You can also bookmark content from a Web browser while you're at work, for example, and watch it when you get home.
In addition to videos, the Boxee Box will also play music. It doesn't support playlists just yet, so it will sequentially play all music files that are located in a shared folder. Likewise, you can view photos off an SD card, USB key or a shared network location, and slideshows can be displayed while music is playing in the background.
Although the Boxee software promises multitudes of free video content from online sources, many services are only available in the United States. We think you should consider the Boxee Box primarily as a local media streamer for viewing content from your computer system or attached hard drives on your big-screen TV, with the added bonus it will also allow you to watch YouTube and many other online streaming video services independently of a laptop or desktop PC.

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