Intel Firms Up Dual-Core Plans
CEO Craig Barrett tells analysts that Intel is "firing on all cylinders" as the company offers a timetable for its first dual-core processor and mobile SpeedStep power management technology.Intel Corp. updated its 2005 product plans at its analyst meeting in New York Tuesday, including a timetable for its so-called "Ts," the processor technologies that are beginning to take precedence over clock-speed increases. Intel, of Santa Clara, Calif., plans to introduce its first dual processor core, "Smithfield," in 2005, as part of the companys "Lyndon" desktop platform. The desktop processor will include a version of the companys mobile SpeedStep technology for power management, a confirmation of a trend Intel executives had hinted at over the past few months. SpeedStep will also be included in the "Sonoma" platform refresh of the Centrino mobile line.
The SpeedStep power management technology, Hyper-Threading and dual-core processors are all part of Intels awkwardly-named "Ts," the technologies that are being used to enhance chips whose clock rates are quietly being acknowledged as fast enough. The shift is known internally as Intels "right-hand turn" strategy, moving away from linear increases in clock speed.

Dear Ms. Farling,
I saw your recent showing at Cafe Cantina. and must let you know that I was very impressed… so impressed I aquired one of your works. As you know I bought this portrait here. first off I hope you understand that I bought this work over any other because when it comes to art habitually I am a traditionalist. No bells and whistles for this guy. I like art strong in fundamentals of art. Which all your works display. I settled for a portrait because it was best with in my price limit (thank you). I was also impressed with the "life" with which your portraits expressed. So much so the ones of people eating hot dogs went so far as to discouraged my appetite.
No offence taken on this end because in truth that is what makes your art…. ART. your works even your "studies" Are VISCERAL, GUTTURAL and AGGRESSIVE. Your wok is like being punch in the mouth or the stomach. sometime from the subject matter and other times from robustness with which they are created as seen in your painting of the pigs. (oink oink what gluttonous species we are never, fulfilled… but what beautiful lines and colors our gluttony can create).Strangely all these nuances are all just precursor for what your "REAL" ART HOLDS.
And when I use the words REAL ART of course I am referring to your Hybrid painting. The ones you paint from those magnificent Marquette that are created with equally meticulous effort. The Japanese called worlds like these ukiyo-e or the floating world. These works catch the world in it's transition as the natural world as we know it now blends with science. Hybrid creatures sprawl across annihilated landscapes living in "makes shift abodes" created from material referential to the world we live in now. Creating a Hieronymus Bosch like world that once seemed like an impossibility, that is now an inevitability thanks to consumption of world resources and scientific advancement.
What I find most compelling about your work is the passion and energy with which it is created. it comes through in every stroke of the brush in every composition. the time and thought put into these works is exciting and incredible. so much so that you have inspired me and I now find myself obsessed with the act of creation simply for the pleasure of creation. Something I had not felt in years. as such I just wanted to write a note say thanks to let you know , in case you didn't already your work is more powerful than you may believe .
Mr. Richard Rossetto
Ps ( to any one who may catch this…. BUT THIS ART SUPPORT THIS ARTIST TO MAKE MORE)
One Response to "A RECENT ACQUISITION AND LETTER TO ALYSHA FARLING"
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing Rich. Love the portrait you bought.

Carmen Electra Rocks A Tight, LBD At Golden Gods Awards
Carmen Electra flaunted her fabulous figure at the 6th Annual Revolver Golden Gods Award Show in Los Angeles, Calif., on Wednesday. She wore a strapless little black dress with Christian Louboutin heels.
Electra has been married to basketball star Dennis Rodman and Jane's Addiction star Dave Navarro, who she chatted with (and kissed!) on the Golden Gods Awards red carpet. They divorced eight years ago.
Navarro posted a photo of them touching tongues, writing cryptically on Twitter: "May get lucky with this one tonight!"
Are they back together? Electra, 42, was recently linked to clothing mogul Tal Cooperman, who is 12 years her junior. The pair met several months ago through a mutual friend.

The company's warehouse is now located in a new state-of-the-art facility in the Greenville, S.C. area. The site boasts 30% more square footage than the prior space, which "allows us to keep up with the continued growth of the company," Revere explained.

Just Actors Pt.8 – recreating Girl Interrupted (1999) with Diomargy Nunez & Sarah Seeds
I'm doing something different with this one. I decided to do the scene twice and have the actors swap roles. This seemed the fair thing to do since the scene felt more like a monologue with another actor's support. As I reviewed the script prior, I realized that my key to making this scene work is that Lisa must invite her own disaster. Therefore I directed it as such, Lisa starts off focused on Susana then her attention spirals inwards.
I have to congratulate the girls as they really broke from the what the film established. Sarah showed us her mocking humor and we end on a high note as Dio let it rip.
Read more about the original film here LINK.
Actors websites:
We had so much FUN with this and it's great to see how we played the same roles so differently! Bravo to Jhoe and Dio – I had a blast with you!!
Good Work all around!
Great work Jhoe. Inspired idea for the actors to swap places and show more of their dramatic range.
So much talent here! I loved seeing the girls swap roles.
It was cool too see the two very different choices made in regards to "pushing buttons"
Great Job!

Looking to liven up your sex life this Christmas season? We've listed some ideas that will definitely put you on the Naughty list!
Does Valentine's Day own the whole idea of romance and love and is Christmas just its more wholesome fuddy-duddy holiday cousin? Don't be a romantic Scrooge with these tips to put some jingle in your—wink, wink!—bell. Celebrate the holidays with some sizzlin' hot pizzazz and oomph.
A note from the author: You'll probably need the kids, nannies, drivers, in-laws—heck, even the neighbors–to hike off to another place for a couple of hours to participate in any of these activities. Don't say we didn't warn you.
You've spent the whole year being a good girl. What's one day in the year to let the bad girl inside of you loose and let her rip? Do something you've always done, but differently. Instead of booking a hotel room for a quiet getaway, book a motel room—use some of your Christmas bonus and get a suite! See how the illicit feel of a motel hideaway ups the ante on your loving.
You can also bring out some toys and costumes and experiment. 'Tis the season to be merry, after all.

Here's something that is as much about giving yourself the gift of sexy confidence and beauty as giving something to your man. Give him a Christmas gift that will blow his mind and make him see you in a new light—literally. Schedule a boudoir shoot where you can be beautifully photographed, then, once you have the photo, frame it or put it in an album, wrap it up in a cute little bow, and give him the gift of showing him the sensual, beautiful side of you for Christmas.
A note for the single ladies reading this: You might want to give yourself this gift, just so that you'll have a concrete reminder of an empowered, sexy, and confident you.
Looking for photographers who can do this tastefully? Check out The Boudoir Dolls atwww.TheBoudoirDolls.com.

Do a strip tease for him. Don't diss the idea as something fake or pretentious—i.e., something that isn't your style or something that will cause you to just burst out laughing if you try it.
The power of the striptease is actually the "tease" part. Remember the movie Fatal Attraction, in which Michael Douglas's character was simply watching his wife (Anne Archer) put on her makeup while in her underwear—and getting really turned on just by the sight of her? Channel that.
So you don't have to think about renting a pole or anything like that (though why not, if you're game?), but try out the little things that will tease him or make him laugh, like coming out of the bathroom and opening up your robe to gift him with the sight of you decked out in sexy Christmas-themed underwear. Humor is a great turn on, you know!
Check out the Topshop for fun, funky designs in different underwear types like boy leg, briefs, and panties. Plus, SM Department Store's ladies department always has a wide array of underwear colors in different Yuletide hues that you can mix and match.
(Photo by Marius Muresan via sxc.hu)
Take out those beautiful silk ribbons used to wrap those precious gifts and bring them to the bedroom for a little wrapping ribbon bondage. Surprise him and yourself by getting creative with those knots—those Girl Scout lessons would be useful right about now!
Use them to tie each his wrists so he can only watch but not touch, or tie him to the bedpost if you dare. For best results, make sure you also come out on the receiving end of this ribbon ceremony.
(Photo by Aleksandra P. via sxc.hu)
Forget the fireplace—they aren't exactly needed in our tropical country. Try the Christmas tree as a substitute for making your bells jingle and his balls tingle on Christmas Day. Sometimes all it takes is a new place to bring in a new kinky to your shake and tumble routine.
What better place to make holiday cheer than beside the Christmas tree? And if you can look up at the Christmas tree, you can even feel what it must be like to be a Christmas gift just waiting to be opened—and if the two of you do it right, we guarantee you'll see stars, and not just of the decorative kind!
(Photo by Barry Meyer via sxc.hu)
Some books suggest eating ice cream or drinking something cold for a cool, chilly sensation to bring with you as an oral tradition when exploring your partner's nether regions.
Try this with your Christmas mints and see if it will take his breath away.
(Photo by Jeffrey Collingwood via sxc.hu)
If kissing underneath the mistletoe is the tradition, then it's time for a little relocation. Move it around; instead of just hanging from the ceiling, move it to other places that are also worthy of kissing and being kissed. Like in your décolletage—or how about pinning one onto a pair of delicate lace panties? For good measure, you can also pin one on his boxers.
(Photo by Julia Freeman-Woolpert via sxc.hu)
Get him gift certificates that are made out for fun couple things that range from going out for a candlelit dinner, getting a massage together, or winding up in a bubble bath. Set a validity period in which each IOU can be redeemed throughout the year, using milestones like your birthdays or anniversary. Give him bonus points if he redeems all gift certificates in one go.
Looking for ways to get creative with your GCs? You can issue him a check in which the amount paid is for a service rendered, or you can write out destinations on the backs of ticket stubs. You can even print out a boarding pass for a trip to the land of bliss.
(Photo by Michael W via sxc.hu)
Make a naughty list, a list of things that you've been wanting to try with each other. Sometimes it's as simple as a new sex position; sometimes it's as daring as making your own film or just knocking boots someplace you've never tried it. Put your wishes on scraps of paper, drop them in Kinky Stockings (fishnet are better), and pull them out one by one and see if you have the guts to live them out.
(Photo by Fanginhoon via sxc.hu)
Write out a list of a sexy things you and your guy can do every day for 12 days until Christmas. Bring out each other's fun side by downloading a sex app for your preferred gadget and making it a point to give it an intense review. It can even be as simple as going to your favorite restaurant for a candlelit dinner and leaving the mobile phone at home.
Leave these suggestions as notes under his pillow (use scented stationery or wrap them in your best lace panties for maximum impact) or send them out to him every day via SMS.

I don't think she is a whore if the people she is going out with knows about she is going out with all that people at the same time, it would be other thing if she would be cheating on. Anyway I wouldn't take that like having a relationship, I would call that like friends with benefits, that's my opinion...

Always ends badly. You can't have a healthy sexual relationship with someone without any romance.

You can't constantly have sex with someone you're attracted to and not eventually develop feelings. Somewhere along the way, having sex turns into making love. It's inevitable. You have no idea how many friends I have whose relationships started out as "friends with benefits" and evolved rapidly. Very few of them managed to continue seeing each other after they could no longer stick to just being friends.

Well, I used to have a friend with benefits one year and a half ago until I met my boyfriend (now ex-boyfriend). I didn't feel anything for him and so did he. I can tell you I didn't feel any kind of love for him but friendship, you know, we talked about our things and that stuff, but I keep saying I wasn't in love with him. I don't know about your friends, but I can tell you in my case I could have sex with him with no problems. I prefer much more a boyfriend with some romance, indeed I haven't been with any man since my boyfriend (lots of months). But I know you can do that, although I prefer not do to that anymore as I realised I didn't enjoy so much doing that, but you can and I know many people who do that and they are quite happy with it... (with no feelings)

Here are Melissa King photos, the Miss Delaware Teen USA beauty queen who resigned her title because of porn tape allegations. We had a Melissa King video below, since removed on YouTube, which is an interview where she discusses pursuing her dreams. We don't show sex tapes on this family-friendly site, but you can find safe snippets through the links below.
Gallery below.
Miss Delaware Teen USA resigned her reign after the allegations and a sex video surfaced. It is important to note that she denies she is the woman in the video, although reputable websites have found some striking coincidences, such as her looks, her voice, and well, her birthday.
See much more here where you can play a snippet from the sex tape and judge for yourself. The video there is safe for work as it only includes the introduction where the striking brunette woman is sitting on the edge of a bed with a cameraman asking questions.
Biography: Melissa King is currently living in Fenwick Island, Delaware. She is a product of foster care which is a cause she has championed as a beauty queen. After moving around the state as a teenager, she graduated from Indian River High School (Frankford, Delaware) in 2012.
Melissa reigned as Miss Teen Delaware International 2012 before she entered the Miss Universe competition, representing her home state as Miss Delaware Teen USA in 2013. She had a Facebook page (now taken down) where we learned that she is "in a relationship." Sorry guys.
She entered foster care at age 14 and exited when she was 18 years old. In the video below, Melissa discusses the challenges of transferring parents and schools continually during those years. She is a gymnast who had difficulty finding funding to pursue her Olympics dream. And she underwent therapy and countless court appearances as her situation changed over the years. Undoubtedly the experience leaves scars for many foster children.
Melissa's Twitter page is apparently here where you can find many photos of Miss Delaware going about her life. There is another profile for her here. She seems like a genuinely nice girl who still has a brilliant future in front of her. Hopefully she will recover from losing her crown and go on to great things whether or not she is really the woman in the sex tape video.
Right Entertainment reached out to Melissa King for comment on this article. Although she is no longer Miss Delaware Teen USA, she should hold her head up high and reach for the stars because her entire life is ahead of her.
Update: Much has transpired since this story first broke in February. Melissa has indeed lost her crown but job offers are reportedly pouring in, including one for the former Miss Delaware to be a spokeswoman for a porn video site. Reports have also surfaced that King had outstanding warrants. Meanwhile despite her denials the company which released the first video, GirlsDoPorn, released a second one showing the woman identifying herself by name as Melissa King as she reads the porn contract. You can read more about that story here.

See and hear a performance by Loop 2.4.3 on YouTube.
Loop 2.4.3, founded by Clogs percussionist Thomas Kozumplik and featuring multi-instrumentalist Lorne Watson, will release their third full-length album this spring on 180-gram audiophile vinyl, CD and digital download. The duo kicks off a coast-to-coast tour with this special performance in NYC's West Village.
A portrait of the cultural hodgepodge of American heritage, this album begins as a nihilistic snapshot of the postmodern psyche, flashes back to childhood, and journeys through moments of isolation, anger and turmoil, love, tenderness, and nostalgia. From the dark, surreal world of Edgar Allan Poe, to the rebellious freedom of Easy Rider; from the ancient, desolate plains of Minnesota to the post-industrial streets of Brooklyn, Baltimore and Detroit, this is honest music, drawing on a wide range of written and improvised styles, yet impervious to genre-specific expectations or limitations.

Affordable Care for Students, Veterans and Others
Stacy M. Brown | 10/2/2013, 3 p.m.
The implementation of the Affordable Care Act promises to affect, in some way, college students, self-employed workers, small businesses, veterans and individuals with pre-existing medical conditions.
The biggest question surrounding the so-called, "Obamacare," remains how those specific groups will be affected.
Officials at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in Southwest said, because of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the 92 percent of Washington, D.C. residents who already have insurance, will now have more choices and stronger coverage. For the 8 percent who do not, or for District families and small businesses who buy their coverage but aren't happy with it, they will enjoy new options.
The District has already received more than $82.1 million in grants for research, planning, information technology development, and implementation of its Health Insurance Marketplace, the tool in which the new health care options can be accessed and purchased.
"The insurance that I have now seems to work fine for me, it has a very small co-pay amount, but the premium is high, especially for me because I work as a waiter," said Howard University junior Malik Paige.
"So, I'm definitely going to be checking the marketplace under this new law to see if there is something more affordable that suits what I need," said Paige, 20.
Under the ACA, individuals under the age of 26 can remain insured as a dependent under the parent's or guardians existing health insurance even if they are married and employed.
Young adults, who are employed at businesses that don't offer health insurance or plans that are affordable, will be eligible through the Affordable Insurance Exchange which is a type of marketplace where health benefit plans can be purchased under the new law.
Washington, D.C. residents now have a choice of insurers that include Aetna, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Kaiser Permanente, and United Healthcare. Under the ACA, there will be a choice of 267 health plan options that include HMOs, and PPOs.
Under the ACA, self-employed business owners will have a host of options in finding affordable health care, according to HHS officials.
The self-employed may also qualify to get lower costs on monthly premiums when they purchase private health coverage in the marketplace.
Beginning in 2014, the individual shared responsibility provisions of the ACA call for each person to have basic health insurance coverage for each month qualify for an exemption or make an individual shared responsibility payment when filing federal income tax returns starting in 2015.
"They (young self-employed entrepreneurs) are going to decide not to play. They are risk takers to begin with," said Glen Melnick, a health economist at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.
However, if coverage is unaffordable, and an individual spends less than three consecutive months without coverage or if a person qualifies for an exemption for other reasons, including hardship and religious beliefs, the individual will not be required to make a payment.
"It's a bit tricky, though because the income threshold tops out at about $46,000," said Peter Wintermantel, who runs an internet-based business out of his home in Alexandria, Va. "For the self-employed, things are still up in the air. We'll have to access and see how prices and other things shake out," said Wintermantel, 37.

I enjoy dinner on the patio during early summer days. Typically it isn't overly hot here in the Midwest, and the mosquitos are not out in full force. Whether you're on your patio, around a pool, or looking out over your backyard garden (from inside air-conditioned comfort), I hope you'll try these refreshing recipes.
Grilled Chicken Cucumber Salad uses six simple ingredients. You grill the marinated chicken, along with apple slices, and serve over a mixture of salad greens and fresh cucumber. It's simple, flavorful, and delicious!
Then, finish up the meal with a classic Strawberry Shortcake. I love visiting a local berry patch this time of year and picking strawberries to enjoy in this recipe. Add blueberries to this recipe for a patriotic twist that works well for the upcoming 4th of July holiday.
Grilled Chicken Cucumber Salad
"I often increase this quick and light yet nourishing grilled salad to serve company," notes Patricia Vatta of Norwood, Ontario.
2 Servings Prep: 25 min. Grill: 15 min.
1/2 cup cucumber ranch salad dressing
1/4 teaspoon dill weed
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
1 medium apple, cored and cut into 1/4-inch rings
2 cups mixed salad greens
1-1/4 cups sliced cucumber
In a small bowl, combine salad dressing and dill. Pour 1/4 cup into a large resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 20 minutes. Refrigerate remaining dressing.
Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill chicken, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Keep warm.
Brush 1 tablespoon dressing over apple rings; grill for 1 minute on each side. Divide salad greens and cucumber between two serving plates. Slice chicken; arrange chicken and apple rings over greens. Serve with remaining dressing. Yield: 2 servings.
Nutritional Facts: 1 serving (prepared with reduced-fat ranch dressing) equals 356 calories, 15 g fat (2 g saturated fat), 107 mg cholesterol, 551 mg sodium, 19 g carbohydrate, 4 g fiber, 36 g protein.
In our farmhouse kitchen, I grew up helping my mom make soup and pies. My husband's a doctor, and we live on a "hobby farm" here in the Skagit Valley. Through the years, we've raised everything from turkeys to horses. Right now, there are steers in the pasture. Larry and I have four children. The eldest was married last summer…the youngest is finishing kindergarten!
9 Servings Prep: 25 min. Bake: 20 min.
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
Whipped cream
1-1/2 quarts fresh or frozen strawberries, sliced
In a bowl, cream sugar and shortening. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Combine dry ingredients and add alternately with milk to the creamed mixture. Spread in a greased 9-in. square baking pan. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
Cut into nine servings. Split each serving horizontally and fill with whipped cream and strawberries. Replace top of cake; garnish with more berries and a dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately.
Yield: 9 servings.

The next steps to take
3. It's time to be the numbers person. You may tout a persuasive economic model, but sellers need to know what revenue and cost numbers really represent. What's the impact of seasonality? Were there sales spikes from online daily deal participation, such as Groupon and LivingSocial, or are these offers scheduled? Internet coupons are treated as gift cards under some state laws, meaning that restaurants may be required to redeem the coupons long after their expiration date. ...

I make decaf iced tea and wanted to use organic high quality tea, which of course, cannot be found at the grocery store. I tried this and it makes delicious iced tea. It is rather expensive, but I'm sure worth it in terms of health and well being. I use four tea bags for two quarts of tea!

Any way...
1A and 1B are correct. Though I must say that it is quicker to use the equivalent equation: where s is the arc length, r is the radius, and is the angle is radians.
2. Your answer here is correct for the positive answer. Now you need a negative version.
3. <-- This step is to reduce the angle to something easier to work with.

6,000 union members cost 12,000 other workers their jobs
In a case study of cutting your nose off despite your face, union members who walked out on strike at bankrupt Hostess Brands (makers of Twinkies and other well known products) and refused to return to work by yesterday have forced the company into liquidation. Of the 18,000 workers who will lose their jobs, about one-third were union members.
The company had offered a compensation package that had cuts (to include an 8% pay cut). These were necessary during bankruptcy reorganization to keep the company afloat. The union refused the package and walked out.
Apparently, 100% of nothing is much better than 92% of something … especially in this job market.
Congratulations Bakery, Confectionery, and Tobacco workers and the Grain Millers International Union, among others. You put the capital "S" in Stupid, Selfish and Shortsighted (a crown previously held by the former union members of Eastern Airlines).
But I'm sure this will somehow end up being blamed on "greedy Capitalists" and be declared a "market failure" by the usual suspects.

MADISON- Bill "Rosco" McCulloch, age 58, passed away after a brief, courageous battle with cancer on Wednesday, April 17, 2013. He was born on October 15, 1954, to George and Evangeline McCulloch.
He graduated from Monona Grove High School in 1973. Rosco was a member of the Carpenters Union Local 315 since 1973.
He was a creative artist and Blues lover. He was passionate about the outdoors, cooking, gardening, carpentry, his dogs, and biking- especially the annual bike trips with the boys. But most of all, he was passionate about Jesse and Jude, who were his pride and joy. He was a truly honest and good soul, who was humble, and always showed 100% humility. He was always willing to help anyone in need, whether they asked for it or not. Rosco was a fantastic example for everyone else to lead their lives after.
He is survived by his wife of 38 years, Karen; his son, Jesse (Jenna); his grandson, Jude; his sister, Sharon (John) Swiatek; his sister-in-law, Ann McCulloch; and brothers, Dave (Louan), Mike (Lisa), and Jeff.
He was preceded in death by his parents; and brothers, Toby in 2011, and Terry in 2013.
There will be a celebration of Rosco's life at a later date.
The family would like to extend a special thanks to the Wildwood Clinic, Dr. Kim and the staff at Dean Oncology, St. Mary's 5SW staff, Agrace Hospice, and most of all, his family and friends near and far, for all their support throughout this journey in which we could not have done without them.
Rosco's philosophy in life was "live to love, and love to laugh."
Donations would be appreciated to a fund to be set up for Jude's education.

News-Herald editors, artists contribute to "Menopause: The Art show"
When Paula Neuman had her first "hot flash" it was followed by some 20 hot flashes per day.
"A lot of them are at night, which left me plenty of time to think," said Paula, who edits the Life and Leisure section of The News-Herald Newspapers. "I found myself wishing for a rite of passage. At the very least, I wanted a freakin' greeting card to welcome me into this next phase of my life!"
It has led to more than that. "Menopause: The Art Show" will open at River's Edge Gallery in downtown Wyandotte on October 2 at 6 p.m. A menopause calendar will be available as well as the art work used to produce it.
"Decadent chocolates and champagne will be served, of course." according to gallery owner Patt Slack.
The project got legs when Paula presented the idea to her friend and fellow News-Herald editor Mavis McKinney Farrand. They then connected with photographer Marianne Letasi, who had "the drive, passion and the right sort of expertise to make crazy projects into reality." Paula said. They began meeting with women artists and early on, Martine MacDonald suggested a calendar.
"We asked our artists to use their talents as they saw fit to depict the passage of menopause, and the sisterhood and worth of older women, who too often are marginalized and undervalued in our society," Paula said. "The result is our 'Welcome to Menopause' calendar, a project by women and for women that has been inspiring and uplifting for me, as well. And next, we will do cards. Somebody had better send me one!"
Not to forget the men of menopause, the husbands of both publishers, Lee Neuman and Craig Farrand, will host a little soire themselves next door at Belicoso Café, a cigar and martini bar.

LEE, N.H. — Unlike maple syrup-drenched Vermont and lobster-rich Maine, New Hampshire doesn't have much to call its own in the food world. But it could find a future claim to fame in birch syrup, a nontraditional but increasingly popular product pulled from New Hampshire's state tree.
DOVER, N.H. — Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan told New Hampshire supporters Tuesday that he and running mate Mitt Romney will put Americans back to work rather than encourage their dependency on government.

Unlike the other Andyson-based PSUs we've tested so far, the Strike-X 800W can deliver almost all of its output power across the +12V rail. The auxiliary voltages (-12V and +5V standby) are not included into the total: the PSU can yield 800 watts via the three main power rails.
The load capacity of the +5V and +3.3V rails exceeds the requirements of any modern computer.
The PSU is 80 PLUS Silver certified.
UPS Compatibility
Working together with our APC SmartUPS SC 620, the Strike-X 800W was stable at loads up to 374 watts when powered by the mains, but could not switch to the UPS's batteries even at 280 watts.
Cross-Load Voltage Stability
Although not perfect in this test, the Strike-X 800W did much better than Aerocool's Value series. None of its voltages goes out of the permissible range.
The most important +12V voltage is almost ideal at low loads, but deflects by up to 4% from the required level at high loads.
The +5V voltage is going to be within 2% of the required level in the load range typical of real-life computers. However, when there is a near-maximum load on the +12V rail, the +5V voltage may be 3 or 4% off.
The +3.3V voltage largely remains within 3% of the required level. It is only in idle mode, when there is low load on each power rail, that it is 4% off the required level.
This voltage stability would be good for a PSU that lacks dedicated voltage regulation. But the Strike-X 800W having such regulation, we must confess we expected it to perform better in this test.
Output Voltage Ripple
The high-frequency voltage ripple is not strong but there are occasional high spikes (beyond the permissible range on the +5V rail).
The same goes for the low-frequency ripple: it is weak but there are occasional spikes above the permissible limits on the +5V rail.
Temperature and Noise
The Strike-X 800W is cooled by an 11-blade 135mm Young Lin Tech fan (the DFS132512H model with a rated speed of 1700 RPM). The fan has a translucent red impeller but lacks highlighting. There are three partitions attached to one side of its frame that help optimize air flows.
The start speed of the fan is slightly above 600 RPM and remains the same until a load of 200 watts. Then the fan accelerates smoothly, reaching 1600 RPM at 730 watts and higher.
The fan is audible at loads above 400 watts and downright noisy at 600 watts and higher. We guess that your computer is going to have noisier components, like a graphics card cooler, at such a high load, though.
Overall, the Strike-X 800W is average in terms of acoustic comfort.
Efficiency and Power Factor
The power factor of the Strike-X 800W is high, up to 99%, just as you can expect from a PSU with active power factor correction.
At the reference loads of 20, 50 and 100%, it was 86.2%, 89.1% and 85.3% efficient. This complies with the 80 PLUS Silver requirements but by a very narrow margin at full load (we want to remind you that we have to test our PSUs in our 220V mains although the 80 PLUS certification refers to 115V mains in which efficiency is somewhat lower).
Standby Source
The standby source meets the industry requirements but is 4% off the required level at low and full loads.
The Strike-X 800W is not a failure like Aerocool's Value series, yet it is hardly a success. It is just a satisfactory product without anything extraordinary about its technical specs.
However, this product comes at a very attractive price. In fact, it costs about as much money as less efficient PSUs of similar wattage from non-flagship series of other brands such as Thermaltake TR2, FSP Epsilon and Corsair GS.
Coupled with its long cables and original exterior design, this may make it interesting as an affordable but high-wattage and high-efficiency PSU.

Digital Mammography
Benefits of Mammography
Mammography is the most reliable method for identifying breast cancer in its earliest stages – when it's easiest to cure. With early detection and treatment, 90 percent of all breast cancers can be cured. Mammography uses low dose X-ray to create vivid images of the breast tissue.
Current guidelines from the American Cancer Society recommend that women have a mammogram every year beginning at age 40. An annual mammogram should be part of every woman's breast care, along with monthly self-examinations and annual physical checkups.
Appointment Scheduling
Digital mammography is provided at four locations:
Foothills Hospital, 4747 Arapahoe Ave., Boulder.
Community Medical Center, 1000 W. South Boulder Road, Lafayette.
Boulder Medical Center, 2750 Broadway, Boulder.
Medical Imaging Center, 36 Garden Center, Broomfield
Mammography is primarily used as a breast cancer screening tool. It is also used to identify abnormalities in the breast, such as a lump that can be felt by hand or abnormal nipple discharge. If a patient needs a breast biopsy, surgeons rely on mammograms to pinpoint the exact location of the lesion.
The exam usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes. The mammographer takes two images of each breast from different angles. The breast is carefully placed on a special surface and then tightly, but gently, compressed by an acrylic paddle. This allows for reduced X-ray exposure and better detail on the image. The procedure is somewhat uncomfortable but generally not painful and it is over quickly. Board-certified radiologists interpret the mammograms, identifying any areas of concern. A report is sent to your physician, and a letter is also mailed to you with the results. If a questionable area is seen on your mammogram, the radiologist may recommend further tests.
BCH had the first facility in Boulder County to offer the latest advance in diagnosing breast cancer -- digital mammography.
A digital mammogram not only produces quicker results, it uses less radiation than standard film mammography and offers other significant advantages for patients—shorter exam times, reduced need for repeat mammograms and more accurate detection of abnormalities.
Medical studies indicate digital mammography is better at screening women in three specific categories: those under age 50, of any age with extremely dense breast tissue and pre- or perimenopausal women of any age.
A digital mammogram creates images that are displayed on special computers. This allows our radiologists to manipulate the images of breast tissue for more accurate detection of abnormalities. This system also improves our radiologists' ability to communicate important clinical information to other physicians.
Bring Your Prior Mammograms and Reports
If you've had a mammogram before, the radiologist would like to compare them with the new ones being taken. If your previous mammogram was taken at another health facility, please bring them with you to your appointment.
You also can arrange to have your mammograms sent directly to the facility where your exam is scheduled.Qualification and Accreditation
The Imaging Departments at Foothills Hospital and Boulder Medical Center have been designated as Breast Cancer Centers of Excellence by the American College of Radiology.

Greensboro Municipal's Commitment
"Building lifelong relationships one member at a time"
As a member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative Greensboro Municipal is committed to our members and the Greensboro community we serve. We uphold our fundamental responsibility to serve all people within our field of membership. We treat all people with respect and dignity and offer honest service, without prejudice, to all people at all times. We offer the best value in products and services to all socio-economic and demographic segments of our field of membership. We continually reach out to those who are in need of financial services.
We monitor and communicate our service in a meaningful way so members, potential members, legislators, regulators, and the community at large will understand and appreciate the unique role a member-owned financial cooperative plays in their lives.
Throughout Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit Union's strategic plan, we will put forth every effort to enable our members to become financially self-sufficient and successful. We place high importance on consumer education and the teaching of financial thrift.
The Statement of Commitment is consistent with our credit union principles of "Not for profit, not for charity, but for service" and our philosophy of "People helping people." This statement represents good business practices to ensure the financial strength of our credit union.
Our Credit Union History
Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit Union was chartered by the State of North Carolina prior to the existence of federal chartering statutes. In 1937, City of Greensboro workers pooled their resources and created Greensboro Municipal. They each contributed to the founding their credit union. Now, after more than seventy years of continuous operation, that initial startup investment has grown substantially into a modern full-service financial service provider with over 5,700 members and over $32 million in assets. Greensboro Municipal changed it's charter from a state to a federal credit union in February 2011.
The story of Greensboro Municipal today is centered on members, community, growth and change. As a not-for-profit business, the credit union is committed to serving its members. The field of membership has expanded over the years; however, the employees of the Greensboro city government, located in Guilford County, North Carolina still represent a significant portion of the membership.
Greensboro Municipal Federal Credit Union has a stable core of competent, experienced and dedicated volunteers and employees. Our volunteers represent a cross-section of the existing membership and bring a valuable variety of professional experience and perspectives to their positions. Likewise, our employees bring a strong mixture of expertise and experience to running Greensboro Municipal's operations.

Gold Miners ETF
I have been watching the Gold Miners ETF (GDX, ER 0.55%) with interest since it started trading a few weeks ago. It appears to track fairly closely with the Vanguard Precious Metals and Mining fund (VGPMX, ER 0.4%) and has a respectable trading volume.
I think this would be a good substitute fund in a taxable account for the VGPMX fund in my tax-deferred account. It could also be used for tax harvesting purposes — if there is another huge run-up in precious metal equity, I would sell off some of my VGPMX allocation in my tax-deferred account and purchase the equivalent amount of GDX in my taxable account. Later, if/when this sector corrects, I would then be able to sell off GDX at a loss, harvesting a tax benefit, and at the same time purchase back VGPMX in the tax-deferred account.
Hmm, sounds like a plan…
