Nice little app. Dont forget Android and G+. Too much FB and Itunes, this could get boring to a great many people.
John Shamblin
It is a really useful app, though I have been disappointed in its consistency in cross-posting to the other applications. Maybe that is something that has been addressed - it seems to be doing better on that front. It also had a glitch where it would not allow me to "unshare" with certain people. Those minor issues aside, it is very creative and well-done.

PayPal is designed to make transacting online simple and streamlined. You use your account to pay people and get paid and to make purchases from stores that accept the service.
But because PayPal does do business in a new and somewhat suspect sphere -- online banking and shopping -- it has adopted strict anti-fraud policies that anger users and lock them out of their accounts and their money. Moises Zepeda, who sued the company on behalf of a class of plaintiffs whose accounts were improperly locked for 6 months for security reasons, complained that users were not paid interest while money in their accounts was frozen. PayPal agreed to settle the suit for $3.2 million, reports Investor's Business Daily.

I have taken a leave of absence from investment writing over the last month in order to finish my book titled The Alpha Hunter that will be released by McGraw Hill this fall. Along with the book I will be launching a revolutionary online investment advisory service at economictiming.com so my time is limited this summer. However, I can't help myself...I've got to post on Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) latest news. Here are my takes:
- Calvin Huang of Daiwa Securities is the Apple analyst that everyone should be listening to. Huang totally trumped Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster who had previously told investors not to expect the Tablet to be released until 2010. I read Munster's report from last month and immediately thought his logic was off base. Huang is the analyst with the best contacts in Asia, he's located in Taipei, he has done the real research. He is reporting that Apple will ship the 10-inch touchscreen tablet in Q4 2009. It will be manufactured by Hon Hai Precision Industries with chips from Infineon with technology from ARM Holdings.
- Steve Jobs is back. The WSJ has reported that Jobs has been actively working with the company during the last six months. Unnamed sources from Apple suggested that his publicly announcement return to the company will be held in conjunction with a special product announcement. That new product will be the Media Tablet. Jobs will redefine the netbook space this holiday season. It needs to be announced soon in order to freeze the current netbook market and to allow developers 3 months to create applications for the new device. This is the timeline that Apple follows for a new product that doesn't have to compete with their existing products. Because there is no threat of cannibalization, Apple wants to get the word out asap.
- China will be one of the 80 countries to distribute the iPhone in August. Consumers in China and India will flock to the cheaper 3G iPhone. Jobs will probably announce the deal at his come back event.
- The $99 iPhones will sell like hot cakes at Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT).
- AT&T (NYSE:T) made a huge mistake in not allowing the new iPhone 3GS tethering capability to work in the USA. This small piece of technology is a high speed wireless game changer and it represents the final straw to break the back of the AT&T/Apple exclusivity contract that runs through 2010. Apple will not renew the deal and the iPhone will become available through Verizon next year. A big Apple catalyst for 2010.
- There's only one thing better than using your finger to navigate the latest technology; using your voice. Apple's voice control software built into the iPhone 3GS could become a wonderful surprise.
- The Macbook Air price cut is significant. That is the best laptop on the market by far. Any business user who owns one knows they can never go back to the old ways. The Air will see increased demand.
So now let's talk price targets. The announcement of Steve Jobs' return in conjunction with a product announcement pushes this stock up to $170. The announcement of a China iPhone deal pushes it up to $180. And holiday sales expectations to be released in January of 2010 could push it over $200. Trade accordingly. The biggest pop could come by the end of July.
Disclosure: Long AAPL.

A course is the study of a particular topic within a wider subject area and is the foundation of a qualification. A typical course includes lectures, assessments and tutorials.
Pilot training is a challenging, yet incredibly rewarding process of becoming a successful pilot. The aviation industry continues to grow rapidly, meaning there is a large demand for pilots with this extensive training. Those who have completed pilot training and have acquired a license will have a variety of jobs to choose from.
Lithuania, officially the Republic of Lithuania is a country in Northern Europe, the largest of the three Baltic states. It is situated along the southeastern shore of the Baltic Sea, to the east of Sweden and Denmark. More than 90% of Lithuanians speak at least one foreign language and half of the population speaks two foreign languages, mostly Russian and English.
Being the largest city and the capital of Lithuania, Vilnius aims to build a bright educational future. The city is greatly filled with quality of educational institutions such as Vilnius University, Mykolas Romeris University, and Vilnius Gediminas Technical University.

Modular Commercial Pilot License Training Course is designed for those who want to harmonize the needs with the possibilities. Lasting more than ATPL integrated course but requiring less investments, CPL training course can be divided into 'modules'. The biggest advantage of the modular program is the training for mandatory courses composed to gain a ATPL frozen license at the convenient time. After the completion of the course, students are eligible to operate as private pilots or co-pilots on single/multi-engine airplanes in the area of JAA/EASA by obtaining the PPL and CPL/IR/ME licenses. 'The truth is that sometimes airline pilots mastering the metal birds weighting around 40 tons catch themselves envying those flying beyond them, playing around the lake, turning around trees and doing mind-blowing maneuvers – because they cannot do that themselves", Peter Moysidis, ab initio trainings instructor at the Baltic Aviation Academy'....

Instructors are very patient and willing to help you out with different problems that occur when understanding the material. I would definitely recommend BAA to others.

2017 WSC Hall Of Fame Ballot
Yes, it's that time of year again, but this time around there will be a shorter window for voting.
You can vote for as many or as few players as you want. The rules are the same as the MLB Hall of Fame. 75% of the vote will get a player in. At least 5% of the vote will keep a player on the ballot for next year. A player has to be away from the White Sox for a minimum of five years for ballot consideration. If a player cannot get 75% of the vote after 15 tries, he is taken off the ballot.
Last ballot, three players were voted into the WSC Hall Of Fame. Who will make it in this year?
The 2017 ballot includes a player for each positional spot on the field, a designated hitter, a manager, and pitching has been split into spots for starter, middle relief and closer.
Joey Cora – 2nd Base (1st year)
Joe Crede – 3rd Base (1st year)
Oscar Gamble - DH (7th year)
Rich Gossage – P (1st year)
Dummy Hoy – OF (4th year)
Frank Isbell – 1st Base (6th year)
Fielder Jones – OF (6th year)
Al Lopez – MGR (7th year)
J.C. Martin - C (1st year)
Jack McDowell - P (1st year)
Minnie Minoso - OF (1st year)
Bobby Thigpen - P (6th year)
Buck Weaver - SS (5th year)
Voting will be through July 11, 2017, with the results announced shortly after. You can vote on the right sidebar. Any position left open due to election or cuts will be filled by another player next year.
The results should prove interesting. Have fun!

Congrats Tim Raines!!!
Hall of Fame Class of 2017
You deserve every bit of this, Tim. When I was a kid just starting to collect baseball cards, I would wish that you were on the White Sox. I always had a soft spot for the Expos. Maybe it was those powder blue uniforms. Maybe it was the exotic (to a little kid) locale of Montreal, where they weren't just Canadian, they were FRONCH-Canadian. Then one day, in the middle of my freshman year of high school, I got my wish.
You never disappointed me. You, along with a fresh young group (and a couple of old timers), took the AL West by storm. The White Sox became a force to be reckoned with. Then it all came undone with the strike. You may have had your first World Series with the White Sox in 1994, but we'll leave that for another timeline where the strike doesn't happen. Still you got two with the Yankees and finally one, as a coach, with the White Sox. So, a little late, but better than never.
Soak it up and enjoy the ride. You deserve every bit of this.

Congratulations To The Chicago Cubs
Let this be a congratulations off to the Cubs and their fan base. We White Sox fans know about long suffering World Series droughts. Ours lasted eighty-eight years. Only one score off of the Cubs. "Score" being a term that means twenty years, that was more common closer to the last time that the Cubs won a World Series.
I have lots of friends and family who are die hard Cubs fans, including my beautiful wife. I enjoy the Cubs as I enjoy all of baseball. There is no hatred there. Only admiration and respect.
The only problem I have with the Cubs is not their team or their park. I don't even have a problem with most of their fans. I do have a problem with about .01% of the Cubs fans. I also have problem with .01% of White Sox fans. It the obnoxious fans that go to extremes that really cause the division in among fans. Cubs fans are portrayed as beer swilling, bandwagon party yuppies who don't pay attention to the game and just show up to the park to say they've been there. White Sox fans are portrayed as drunk suburban trash, who storm the field, the few times that they actually show up to the park. I'm here to tell you that neither of these portrayals represent 99.99% of each team's fans. The bad acts of the few should not represent the majority.
I can still cheer on the Cubs and not have to turn my White Sox card in. And the same is true for the Cubs fans. We all love the game of baseball. Shouldn't that be enough? It is in my book. Most fans just want to see a good game and if their team wins that game, it just makes it better.
So cherish this special team Cubs fans. It can be done. This team has proven it. From this moment forward, there will be no more excuses. No goats. No black cats. No Gatorade. No more "lovable losers". You guys are winners. It may require a completely different mindset for some of you, but know it's true.
If you would have asked me back in October 1984, if I would see a Chicago championship in my lifetime, I might have been optimistic, but I would probably have said no. Since that picture was taken, I have seen championships by the Bears, the Bulls, the White Sox, the Blackhawks and now the Cubs. I am simply amazed! It can be done.
Enjoy this moment Cubs fans. Cherish it. Relish in it. You deserve it. May you not have to wait another 108 years for another championship... unless you're playing the White Sox in that championship game, then, I'm sorry, I have to go with the White Sox. It's nothing personal and I hope we can still watch the game together.

WSC Birth Years: Jerry Sands
Born: September 28, 1987
Jerry was taken by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the twenty-fifth round of the 2008 amateur draft. From there, it was a slow ascent through the Dodgers farm system until he made his MLB debut on April 18, 2011 against the Atlanta Braves. Sands managed to get his first hit, an RBI double, out of the way in the bottom of the first inning against Atlanta pitcher Tim Hudson. Jerry would play sporadically over two seasons for Los Angeles until he was traded to the Boston Red Sox on October 4, 2012, to complete an earlier deal. Sands would not last as a Red Sox for long, since he was dealt almost three months later to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Nearly a year later, without playing a single game for the Pirates, Jerry was selected off waivers by the Tampa Bay Rays on December 23, 2013.
Sands would appear in twelve games for Tampa Bay in 2014. He signed as a free agent with the Cleveland Indians for the 2015 season. Jerry played in fifty games for the Tribe. Sands would be selected off waivers on December 23, 2015 by the Chicago White Sox. He appeared in twenty-four games for the Pale Hose, providing a bench bat and a fill in for the outfield and first base.

WSC Birth Years: Tyler Danish
Born: September 12, 1994
Drafted in the second round of the 2013 amateur draft by the White Sox, Tyler made his MLB debut for Chicago on June 11, 2016, one day after first round pick, Tim Anderson made his MLB debut for the ChiSox. Making his debut against the Kansas City Royals, in front of a home crowd, Danish had a less than stellar appearance. Tyler gave up three hits and a walk, while ballooning his ERA to 13.50 in two-thirds of an inning. Manager Robin Ventura trotted him out again the next day, with much better results. Another two-thirds of an inning pitched against Kansas City, giving up only one hit, this time with no batters crossing the plate.
Danish made a third consecutive appearance on June 13th, this time against the Tigers, giving up two hits and two walks in one-third inning. Tyler would be sent back down to the minors after three games, but the experience should suit him well. He should be able to make some adjustments and come back strong, when his next opportunity arises.

Waiting 'Til This Year: A White Sox - Cubs Trade
It was with great embarrassment that I found that I had not yet run across Waiting 'Til Next Year until Tom e-mailed me about making a possible trade. I will certainly not make that mistake again. I plan on checking out Tom's awesome blog frequently from now on.
Tom made an intriguing proposal. While looking through his trade box, he ran across twenty-nine cards from my want list, including five Frank Thomas cards. How could I turn that down? Tom ended up sending thirty-two cards my way.

Thanks for the trade, Tom! You certainly filled a good amount of holes in my collection. I hope you are as satisfied with the trade as I am. I look forward to possible future trades.

WSC Birth Years: Tommy Kahnle
Born: August 7, 1989
Tommy was drafted in the fifth round of the 2010 amateur draft by the New York Yankees. He racked up relief appearances in the Yankees farm system through 2013. Kahnle was even invited to 2013 spring training by the Yankees. On December 12, 2013, Tommy was selected by the Colorado Rockies in the Rule V draft. He made his MLB debut on April 3, 2014 for the Rockies against the Miami Marlins, relieving Franklin Morales in the bottom of the sixth inning.
On November 24, 2014, Kahnle was traded to the Chicago White Sox. He made his White Sox debut on April 29, 2016 against the Orioles in Baltimore. Tommy appeared in five games before he was sent down, resulting in a 6.23 ERA. While he was sent down, chances are Kahnle will be back up before too long.

A List Of Topps Larceny Of Bloggers
Let's document this and see just how much Topps "borrows" from the bloggers. I acknowledge that Topps probably has a little lag time between inception of product and release of same product. Topps can also be stingy with what's exactly in their releases and sometimes will wait until the last minute to release details. The intention here is to try to establish when each instance was first released or mentioned by either side.
There are homages and there are outright cases of stealing. Homages are completely harmless. It's what most of us bloggers are doing with card creations. A company can also do an homage, but they should give credit where credit is due. We'll collect all the examples here and let the public decide.
Birth Year cards
1st blogger mention: January 20, 2009 gcrl
1st blogger appearance: March 9, 2009 White Sox Cards
1st Topps mention: June 23, 2016 Topps blog
1st Topps appearance: Fall 2016 (as Topps Birth Year cards)
Blogger version: Cards featuring White Sox players on the design from the year they were born.
Topps version: Topps is issuing a set of cards called "Birth Year" cards featuring rookie players on the design from the year they were born.
Celebrity Jersey cards
1st blogger appearance: May 7, 2010 Johngy
1st Topps appearance: Spring 2015 (as Topps First Pitch)
Blogger version: Celebrities wearing jerseys featuring all sports.
Topps Version: Topps used celebrities and notables in jerseys throwing out the first pitch at a baseball game. Topps did do insert sets of Presidential first pitches as early as 2002 in Topps American Pie.
Do you have more examples? Leave them in the comments and I'll include them if the case is convincing enough.

Topps Steals Seven Year Old Idea From Card Blogger
My name is Steve Gierman. I run this little card blog called White Sox Cards. I've been producing content for White Sox Cards since November 9, 2007. Since this blog's inception, I have made many friends and gained many readers. In fact, on days I don't post, I average about 200 unique readers. Not bad for someone writing typically about one team and their baseball cards.
I have seen my fellow card bloggers receive accolades for their work and have seen some go on to jobs in the card industry, putting their knowledge, love and connections to great use. I've seen the rise and fall and resurgence of popular blogs, all the while I have been posting content and sharing the love I have for card collecting, baseball and my Chicago White Sox.
I've had a lot of great ideas for card sets and I try to make something new each year. Most years I do, some I don't, but the one consistent ongoing set has been Birth Years. I published my first Birth Years card on March 9, 2009, one year and four months into this blog. I have updated the Birth Years set each year as new players play for the White Sox, using the card design that came out in the year that they were born. I just finished posting the last of the 2015 cards (card #194) on June 14, 2016, and I have been in the prepping stages of the 2016 cards.
These cards have been one of the most popular attractions for White Sox Cards. I take great care in the little details of each card. I even made bonus "In Action" cards for anyone born in 1982 or 1972. I made a decision back in 2009 to use the Topps designs. The main reason I chose Topps cards is that their designs span back to 1951 and they own card designs that go back even further. The second reason I chose Topps is because the designs for each year are usually memorable and I have fond memories of those cards from my youth. There are special memories associated with those designs for myself and every card collector out there. I use the designs as part of "fair use", because I seek no monetary gain from selling these cards. I have had plenty of offers to sell these cards, but I have turned every one down. All I have ever asked is to be given credit.
The first 100 cards have been on YouTube for three years.
It hasn't been a secret. There's even a Birth Years album on the White Sox Cards Facebook page. The Birth Year cards are probably the most unique thing I'm known for as a card blogger. Seven years later, Topps "borrows" the idea and the name. I let the birth year coin cards slide last year because they are a completely different animal. This year it feels like a sucker punch to the gut.
Imagine my surprise yesterday, when my phone starts blowing up. Several different people are telling me the exact same thing... Topps stole my idea. I shrugged it off thinking that everybody was exaggerating. On my lunch break, I checked it out and it's the same idea and same implement.
I'm a fairly easy person to contact. This blog, the Facebook page, the Twitter account all are ways I can be contacted. It's not hard to connect the dots. For a company that is so in tune with the hobby, it's collectors and social media, this seems a bit fishy. It seems to me that someone at Topps was reading my blog and thought that was a great idea.
I don't want a commission, as some people have suggested at the Topps Twitter feed. I would just like credit. A simple e-mail or message to me before this was done would have been the decent thing to do. Common courtesy. If I was asked, I would have given my blessing for the project. I would have been the first one out there promoting it spreading the word about how awesome it was to have an idea that was actually considered worthy of a release. I would have been ecstatic!
Instead, I am frustrated, confused and defiled. I feel like I just got hit with a Randy Johnson fastball. This does nothing to put my faith in the Topps Company. This has been nothing but bad press for Topps by having the card bloggers call the company out on this fact. This experience so far makes me want to lobby for Panini to get licensed. At this point, I'd rather see Upper Deck get their license back, than have Topps retain a license.
One day, soon, this incident will likely be forgotten by most casual card collectors. The long time collectors tend to remember things like this and they are Topps' most consistent customers. Why would any Topps employee think it was alright to steal from their most loyal customers? Even if they are just ideas.
***UPDATE - June 25, 2016***
I'm not the only one who had the thought back in 2009. Check out this post from gcrl. I think Jim and I should both get credit. Jim had the original thought in 2009's Blog Bat Around about what the card companies could do to improve their product. I had honestly forgotten about that inclusion, but that does not change the fact that bloggers had the idea and the inclination to start this project seven years ago. The fact remains that this idea and ongoing project has been highly visible for seven years.
This isn't even the first thing that Topps has "borrowed" from bloggers without giving proper credit. Johngy has had Celebrity Jersey cards since May 7, 2010. 278 different cards have been posted as of this update. Topps took the idea, narrowed it down, and turned it into "First Pitch" cards, which feature celebrities and special guests throwing out first pitches in jerseys. Johngy expands on this to show celebrities in jerseys doing a number of things, including throwing out first pitches, and it includes multiple sports. It just goes to show that the bloggers have the ideas first and end up doing it better.
I guess I'll be expecting to see Final Tribute cards someday from Topps too. All I'll have to do to figure out what's next from Topps is to peruse my blog roll.

Pros: NO GLUE!!!
Very easy to install. It comes with plenty of extra screws and clips to keep any size graphics card secure. I have only been able to do about an hour long run on D3 with this installed but so far my average temp has dropped from around 65C to 35-40C. I would say that so far I am very satisfied.
Cons: This is not a real con because most of the people who would buy this product have at least an above average understanding of DIY systems, but for someone just starting out the instructions are lacking in detail.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: This CPU cooler is amazing. At 100% CPU usage the temp only got to 33C. With the stock heatsink my idle temps were around 36C. The LEDs have rich color and with all the settings you can change the look of your computer anytime.
Cons: As with any high performance heatsink size can be an issue. If you have tall heat fins on your memory then you might have a space issue. I would recommend low profile memory.

CHICAGO -- Ted Lilly went to the mound in the first inning and the wind seemed to be whipping from every direction. Mostly, it was blowing out.
On what might have been a pitcher's nightmare at Wrigley Field, Lilly kept the ball in the park and held the Houston Astros down Saturday as the Chicago Cubs continued their surge with a 9-3 victory.
The Cubs' offense roughed up All-Star Roy Oswalt. Aramis Ramirez had four RBI and Alfonso Soriano hit a three-run shot -- Chicago's first homer in 11 games.
"I respect that lineup, and for us to go out there and the guys to put those kind of at-bats against one of the top pitchers in the league, I certainly wanted to take advantage of an opportunity like that," Lilly said after winning his fourth straight start.
The left-hander, one of the Cubs' top offseason acquisitions, is 5-0 in his last six starts.
"He had a week off between starts and he had a nice, fresh arm," Cubs manager Lou Piniella said. "He had good velocity from the first inning until the eighth."
Lilly (9-4), who hasn't lost since June 5, gave up four hits and a run over eight innings to help Chicago win for the 14th time in 18 games. He walked one, struck out seven and added a run-scoring single in the sixth for his third major league RBI.
Lilly said his control with his fastball has been a big plus and so has his ability to limit home runs, a weakness in the past.
"I'm trying to limit the mistakes and keep the ball from out over the plate," he said. "I've tried not to think about strikeouts."
After Lilly's RBI single, Soriano followed with his homer to left, his team-leading 16th of the season, to finish Oswalt (8-6). The right-hander gave up 10 hits and a season-high nine runs in 5 1/3 innings.
"Everybody knows him. He's a very good pitcher," Soriano said. "The team, I don't think it needs a homer right now. I think it is more important how we play."
Soriano's long drive with the wind blowing out at 15 mph was the first homer for the Cubs since June 29, a stretch of 365 at-bats. Ramirez had a two-run double in the fourth and a two-run single in the fifth.
After Oswalt retired his first 10 batters, Cesar Izturis singled in the fourth but held at third when Derrek Lee doubled to right. Ramirez followed with a drive to right-center that got stuck in the ivy for a ground-rule double, putting the Cubs ahead 2-1.
One out later, Houston's defense made another error -- the Astros had four on Friday -- when catcher Brad Ausmus picked up Mark DeRosa's roller to the left of the plate and threw it past first, allowing Ramirez to score.
Oswalt, who is 10-10 against the Cubs in his career with four straight losses, said a call on a pitch to Izturis in the fourth seemed to throw him off.
"The first three innings went pretty well and then a questionable call on a (potential) third strike on Izturis and I kind of just let that get to me a little too much," Oswalt said. "He swung at the ball and the guy said he tipped it. But the ball was so far away from him that he couldn't reach it with his bat. It kind of threw the whole inning off. It would have been two outs with nobody on."
Instead, Oswalt said, he had to pitch from the stretch instead of the windup, and Lee and Ramirez delivered doubles.
Oswalt got the first two hitters in the fifth but gave up a single to Soriano before walking Izturis and Lee to load the bases. Ramirez singled to left for a 5-1 lead.
"The fourth, fifth and sixth innings were not like Roy Oswalt at all," Astros manager Phil Garner said. "It didn't look like he pitched bad. We just couldn't get out of innings without giving up runs."
Houston scored early when leadoff hitter Chris Burke blooped a ball to right that Cubs right fielder Cliff Floyd dove for and missed, hurting his left shoulder. The ball got behind Floyd and went for a triple. Hunter Pence's RBI grounder made it 1-0.
Floyd had to leave the game with a shoulder strain after one inning. The Cubs switched DeRosa to right and brought in Mike Fontenot to play second base.
- Burke started at second base for the Astros. Garner said before the game that Craig Biggio's playing time could be reduced as the team gives Burke a longer look. Biggio pinch-hit in the eighth and was robbed of a hit by Jacque Jones' diving catch, although TV replays appeared to show the ball was trapped.
- The most runs Oswalt has given up in a game is 10 against the Cardinals in 2003.

Here's The Story...
Moe's Original Bar B Que was founded by three Alabama boys: Ben Gilbert from Athens, Mike Fernandez from Tuscaloosa, and Jeff Kennedy from Huntsville. After meeting at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, they instantly became friends and had a mutual interest in all things Southern: BBQ, blues, college football, and whisky.
In 1988, Mike hooked up with Moses Day in Tuscaloosa and began learning to fire roast meats. When Moses fired up his backyard barrel pit, everyone in T-Town knew where to go. The boys were lucky to learn from Moses and his distinct style makes up Moe's original flavor of BBQ.
Loving the mountains, the guys eventually all landed in Vail, Colorado and refined the cooking skills they had learned over the years. By using fruit wood to smoke the meats fresh daily and hitting it with two sauces, they knew they had something special. Unlike other BBQ joints, Moe's Original BBQ doesn't stop there as Southern style side dishes and desserts are prepared daily from recipes passed down for generations.
Moe's Original BBQ is a Southern soul food revival where great food is served in an atmosphere that is relaxed, spontaneous, yet civilized….well, sometimes.

Random Rebooting, Need Help After Many Attempts to Resolve
Hey everyone!
To begin, my system specs are in my profile but I can post them here if that is preferred.
I have had a nightmare with this thing, and I need some help.
You see, I built it just fine but when I did the processor was overheating. After complying to Intel's requests to check many other things they finally let me RMA the old processor, and to be on the safe side I got a new heatsink for it too. Now the new processor runs just fine at 40C (maximum), and I had a perfectly running computer for a few days.
Now, it randomly restarts for what appears to be no reason. I called all of the manufacturers of my parts for help, and they all offered the same general advice.
I began by checking if everything was installed correctly. I thought it was and got a second, confirming opinion from someone else. I have referred to all of my manuals numerous times as well.
After all of that, I first checked if the RAM cards were the problem. I found that neither one is a problem on its own and the CAS latency that I have set for them (or rather, that the mobo set for them) was indeed correct.
I then looked at the website for my hard drive and got the program they recommended to check for errors on it. That came out clean but to be sure I also used the Windows Installation Disk's repair options to check my memory, which also came out fine. (I'm not actually sure if that checked my RAM or the hard drive...)
I am also assuming that the CPU is fine because I just got it RMA'd...and I'll have more on why in a moment.
Now I am not sure if it is the mobo itself or perhaps my video card. I was told that it could be the power supply but in that case the problem would be happening less frequently, more like once a month or so to begin, than almost every time I log in to Windows.
I also checked that automatic updating wasn't on and somehow causing problems, as well as the sleep mode options.
Then I tried reinstalling Windows, just to be sure. Now I'm currently stuck trying to enter the product key and everything before the computer resets itself.
After that I tried cleaning the RAM and Video Card slots to be sure there was no dust in there causing the problems. (I am aware that with my case being high air flow that dust could cause problems in the future for me if I do not keep it all clean.)
Then I tried the advanced boot options to tell it not to restart when it encounters an error so that I could get in there and find out what the error has been. No luck there.
What I really don't get is that it NEVER reset itself while I played games, except in two instances when I tried starting up a game. (I built this as a gaming computer.) It always reset itself while I was doing less intensive operations, which is why I thought it might have been a software problem and not a hardware problem.
And to be clear, it is not a heat issue. The CPU monitor I have (I can look up what it's called if you would like) as well as the GPU monitor I have tell me that those two parts are fine and at normal temperatures. I would consider that the power supply might somehow me overheating, but if that were the case then the whole thing would turn off at once, but instead my monitor just turns off and then the sound and everything else goes.
So...does anyone have any idea what I should do?

*Childhood obesity has become a growing concern among celebrities in the past few years, especially with the velocity of excitement first lady Michelle Obama has demonstrated since stepping into the White House.
Former NFL star, Jerry Rice, is joining the club of celebrities fighting the childhood death sentence (obesity) with a new campaign, The 60 Million Minutes Challenge.
He's asking children of all ages to pledge 60 minutes a day to get active as part of the NFL's PLAY 60 program, which was launched Monday.
"To reverse the trend of childhood obesity, we need to continue to educate kids and parents about the importance of 60 minutes of daily activity," Rice said. "That's what's great about Kinect for Xbox 360. It gets kids off the couch and gets their whole body in the game.
"Being a healthy kid can lead to being a healthy adult."
Children who join the program will also have the chance to receive gift cards and personalized autographs.

A doll that 'breastfeeds', creepy?
Wendy Tuohy
–, Wednesday, November, 14, 2012, (8:40am)
I'm a big supporter of breastfeeding, and I've criticised prudes such as the moral arbiters at Facebook, who deem it so unsavoury or something to be concealed from view that they make mothers take breastfeeding pictures down.
But even so, I have to say the sight of a girl aged about six 'breastfeeding' a baby doll that makes sucking sounds when its sensors touch one located over her own nipple area doesn't exactly seem natural.
In fact, I don't think the advent of the Breast Milk Baby doll will do anything to promote acceptance of breastfeeding, despite the company marketing this product assuring us "little girls need to learn to breastfeed".
Actually I'd say little girls need to be allowed to just be little girls; they're not meant to be mothers—even with the help of electronic 'nipple' sensors built into in a halter top around their neck.
And to my mind, this doll is a bit creepy because it crosses the line between toy and more life-like role-playing device. And the toy breast-pump you can buy as an accessory descends to the world weird (thanks to reader Juli who went onto the manufacturer's website and spotted it).
I reckon little girls have enough pressure on them to grow up too fast as it is, and though playing with dolls is part of childhood, trying to buckle them in to the onerous role of mother at a tender age isn't necessary.
Many of them are natural nurturers anyway, and some play at breast-feeding dollies, but so what if they're not and they don't. We don't need to drum responsibility for actual little babies into them; let them discover enthusiasm for motherhood and all its joys in their own time.
The doll is selling in Europe, but is causing controversy as Christmas buying gets into full swing in the States. Many parents see it as I do: a lifelike and unnecessary push into adulthood.
Little girls are not equipped with breasts yet for a reason; they're not meant to be mothers yet, so why fast-forward them to the breastfeeding stage—to me it's like giving an eight year-old padded bikini tops. In fact, I reckon the image of a small girl feeding Breast Milk Baby clashes with the idea of care-free childhood to the point where it even risks turning people off the natural act of feeding.
Am I over-reacting? What do you think?

I have a 4 year old daughter and I wholeheartedly agree that this doll is not appropriate. Would we encourage a child's toy that mimics menstruation?
Wed 14 Nov 12 (11:49am)
You question that your instinct may be an overreaction? My Goodness, this article made my skin crawl - if anything I think you're under reacting! This is disgraceful. Nothing good can come from a toy that encourages tiny children to play act parenthood potentially decades before their body is physically prepared. The though of this makes my head spin… What's the betting that this was invented by a man? Because surely only a man would not realise just how overtly "icky" it is (for want of a better word) for any young girl to wear a bikini top with pretend nipples inserted? Ugh.
Wed 14 Nov 12 (02:37pm)
Oh dear… I just went onto the company's website to check out what they have to say… now I am really, truly grossed out. They have a breast pump available as an accessory. This is just so, so wrong. On so many levels.
Wed 14 Nov 12 (02:42pm)
Nice piece of investigative work there Juli, so agree: wrong-town. Have put up a pic of the pump now (yuk).

Wed 14 Nov 12 (03:07pm)
No, you're not overreacting Wendy.
As you say "little girls need to be allowed to just be little girls."
I don't see the role of a mother as onerous, I would hope it is not, but your point that little girls don't yet have breasts for a reason is a good one.
I'm all for motherhood and breast feeding but this doll is merely exploitation in my opinion.
Wed 14 Nov 12 (05:14pm)
Thanks Phil

When a child feeds his/her doll with a little bottle is that disgusting? Is that "growing up too fast"? Is pretending to drive a car "growing up too fast"? Children are too young to drive cars, be parents, write books, wear make-up, be doctors and nurses, and train drivers.....but they PRETEND that is what playing is and that is what being a child is about. Maybe the parents should grow up. What a storm in a tea cup. It is just because it is about breastfeeding and many people think breastfeeding is yucky - deal with your issues and don't put them onto your children.
Thu 15 Nov 12 (07:50pm)
As a teenager, who not so many years ago was playing with dolls herself, I can't see how any harm is being done. I would say that the vast majority of little girls play at breast-feeding their baby dolls anyway, I know my friends and I certainly did. Had this doll been availiable to me as a child, I don't think that I would have played with it differently to any of my others. And for those of you who think that little girls playing at breast-feeding toys are growing up too quickly, remember that they are simply playing with toys. As Virginia has said, chidren are too young to drive cars, and yet when they play with them no one suggests that that is creepy.

This review is from: NEC Display Solutions EA192M-BK Black 19" 5ms Height,Swivel & Pivot Adjustable LED BackLight LCD Monitor w/ Display Port & Speakers 250 cd/m2 DC 25,000:1 (1,000:1)
Pros: Environmentally friendly. Stand works very nicely, including pivot (many monitors don't have a pivot mode). Controls are easy to use, especially with the NaViSet software.
Cons: Screen brightness isn't uniform, and brightness and color vary greatly depending on viewing angle (even at +/- 20 degrees). I contacted NEC tech support about this and was told that this was normal for this TN panel technology. To get better uniformity, I would have to get a more expensive monitor with PVA panel technology. However, this monitor isn't as good as a Samsung and a Dell that I have with TN panel technology.
Although software (a driver and the NaViSet package) are available for this monitor, they aren't on a CD that ships with it; you have to know about them and download them from the NEC website, and there are no instructions for installing the driver.
Other Thoughts: I returned the monitor. It wasn't acceptable for the photography work I do.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ZALMAN CNPS 8700 NT 110mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler
Pros: Appears to be a powerful yet relatively quiet cooler for those whose cases have limited headroom above the motherboard.
Cons: Zalman will not reveal the thermal resistance of this unit, despite three e-mails to them requesting it. In case you aren't aware, thermal resistance is the primary performance parameter of a cooler and tells us how much CPU temperature will rise for each watt of power that goes into the CPU. It is much more helpful than other specifications, such as the fin area or the materials used. Apparently, the thermal resistance of this model isn't very good compared to Zalman's other coolers or to competitive units, so Zalman does not want us to know this. They do provide the thermal resistance of many of their other coolers.
Other Thoughts: I wish Zalman were more open about the true effectiveness of their coolers rather than just hyping the blue LEDs and other fluff.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: EDIMAX EW-7318USG Wireless LAN Hi-Gain Adapter IEEE 802.11b/g USB 2.0 Up to 54Mbps Wireless Data Rates
Pros: Hardware works well. Good, strong signal. software installs easily and works flawlessly. Removable antenna with standard connector (can replace the supplied antenna with a better one). Uses little memory.
Cons: Few software options, for instance, cannot choose where the software will be installed (directory) and can't eliminate the tray icon.
Other Thoughts: Nice to have it on a USB interface (rather than PCI), so I can use a long USB cable to put the antenna at a distance for better reception without suffering the losses that would occur with long antenna cables. Use the drivers on Edimax's website rather then the older ones that come on the CD.READ FULL REVIEW

Explores the states of matter, the building blocks of everything in the universe, as well as influential scientists in the field
In this book, students see the NextGen Science process at work in a real-world situation. Readers practice close reading as they look for clues that will lead to a deeper understanding of structures and engineering. The NextGen Science process pushes students to apply critical thinking as they learn new methods of exploration and build on concepts they may already know. Additional tools, including a glossary and index, help students learn new vocabulary and locate information.
This book explains the history and characteristics of light and how it is used. Reading Essentials in Science.
Expanding on our popular Lets Explore Science series, this book focuses on light and sound. Every day, waves bring light and sound. A wave is a disturbance that travels through matter or space. Students will learn about electromagnetic and mechanical waves, the properties of waves and sound, pitch, amplitude, and the electromagnetic spectrum, as well as how all these things affect the products we use and even us as humans! This book will allow students to apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another.
Solids, liquids, and gases are all around you! In this book, you'll see the states of matter at parties!
This story uses a series of questions and answers to help readers recognize patterns and use a combination of patterns to craft an object.
Blinding, white snow moves across the wet, black road. Winter is splashed with blacks and whites. Black snow pants to keep warm, white snow to sled on, and the black shovel to clear the driveway. Chill out and integrate concepts and science of colors and seasons through a question and answer format. Rhyming and repetitive text make this an engaging title. This title will allow students to identify the main idea of the text.

Mental Health America of Middle Tennessee
Mental Health America of Middle Tennessee (formerly known as the Mental Health Association of Middle Tennessee) is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization that has been providing services to the Middle Tennessee community since 1946. Our mission is to connect the community with specialized mental health and wellness resources, provide services that improve the quality of life, and promote effective services where mental health needs exist.
Over the years, MHAMT has worked diligently to educate all members of our community about how to attain good mental health. We share our message of hope for mental wellness to tens of thousands of individuals annually.
By being a frontline resource for the community, MHAMT is in a position to identify important mental health needs in Middle Tennessee, and then often facilitates the development of programs to meet those needs or enhance resources to address service gaps.

GPS function (Global Positioning System) is informs the position of UR5i v2, LR77 v2, Bivias v2 and SmartFlex routers. GPS receiver is a part of VF module in both routers. GPS receiver receives signal from American satellite system NAVSTAR GPS. The receiver calculates the accurate position from this information, all over the world (latitude, longitude, altitude, speed of movement, direction of movement and accurate time). VF module can receive all information at the same time, it means receiving GPS signals and transmitting and receiving UMTS/LTE data. The connector for GPS antenna is placed on the front panel of routers in the middle of the antennas for UMTS/LTE signals. See picture below.
Function of GPS is implemented in routers UR5i v2, LR77 v2, Bivias v2 and SmartFlex. Note that it is always the full version of routers (UR5i v2, LR77 v2). GPS receiver communicates by protocol NMEA 0183. We have to use software the module of GPS, for the correct functioning of GPS. Details about software modules can be found here. The software module is processes information from GPS receiver and distributes the information in different ways.
1. Via Web interface – configuration of GPS module
Program module has own configuration web page. Basic information about position, parameters, date and movement speed of the router are visible here. On the same page is a link to Google Maps (Show on map). After click on this link you will be redirected to the map with the real position of the router.
2. Via output of NMEA protocol
to the expansion ports (PORT1, PORT2 and USB). These options are possible to set on the web configuration page. Data is sent from the router to the selected ports (PORT1, PORT2, USB) in format NME0183. For connection with remote server is used protocol SNMP TRAP. The user sets address of the router and time period for timed transfering of SNMP TRAP. This solution is highly suitable for re-storing data to the database of the remote server. The second advantage is that the router may not be available from the remote computer and function may be as a client on the Internet.
GPS receiver in practice
Passengers uses are using routers to connect to the internet on public vehicles. The router can share information about accurate position and movement of vehicles. Information about real time from the GPS module can be used for other routers in the site. For sharing can be used NTP server which is implemented in each router. NTP server can be used for sharing accurate time.
