Greetings, Sassanistas! This month we're going to be talking about dressing in layers. I know that Phoenix is no Denver, but it still gets nippy from time to time — especially those winter mornings. However, the difference is it doesn't stay that way. Thanks to the abnormally strong desert sun, the day can warm up to a perfect 70 degrees. That's why I think layers are more of a necessity here than anywhere else.
The key to mastering this trend (yes, layering is not only practical; it just happens to be trendy as well!) is cutting out the bulk. Ensuring that your layers are lightweight will save you from a lot of discomfort both early and late in the day. Not only will you be able to have free range of motion, you'll also be able to store them without having to drag a suitcase along with you.
What's even better is the fact that manufactures have made a point of creating lightweight apparel without sacrificing function. Simply put: You'll still be warm. The three most efficient ways to layer include jackets, vests and leggings. I'll show you how to rock each look.
Golf Fashion Tips: Dressing In Layers
The Jacket
To me, there is nothing worse than freezing your ass (and legs) off. But a lot of times, the lower half of your body is literally left out in the cold because it's much more difficult to layer. My solution is leggings and legwarmers.
Leggings are great because it allows you to wear that little skirt you love no matter what the weather looks like. You can try the capri-cut, like those on the bottom left from Nordstrom for $24; or strut your stuff in a loud pattern. Leggings also come in a rainbow of colors, so feel free to play away. Again, remember a bold pattern or color should be the focal point of the outfit; keep the rest toned down.
Legwarmers, unbelievably, got reincarnated from the '80s, and I love it. They are a lot easier to take off than leggings, if need be, and can pull your whole outfit together. For instance, I have a pair that are argyle, and they're one of my go-to items. Just another way to add in some of that classic golf style. Check out the Burlington Classic pair (bottom, center) for $21.24. They come in almost any color combination you can imagine on Hosiera.com.
Finally, I just have to show you these. Do you remember those ill-designed cargo pants that zip off into capris and shorts? Good idea, bad design. Well, I found someone who managed to get it right. They are black J Brand skinny jeans to the bottom right. I know they're jeans but if the denim is more of a stretch blend, which most women's jeans are moving towards, they'll be workable. Talk about easy and stylish.
The Vest
Where do you find all this stuff you ask? Well, online, of course; but if you are one of those people who just has to try things on, you're in luck. Calvin Klein Performance has a store at the Scottsdale Quarter, GrayHawk Golf Club carries Bogner apparel and a Nordstrom is located at Scottsdale Fashion Square.
Hopefully now you'll know longer say that it's just a little too chilly to hit the golf course. If you can master layering, you've mastered being physically comfortable (skills aside that is) while in the game. See you later, Sassanistas!
Be strong, be smart, be sassy!

Housed in Old Main, Alumni Relations hosts a new Welcome Center for all interested in learning about the university's history and future. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the school year.
Northern Arizona University is known for its
quality undergraduate education and its popular residential campus. Although
the university's mission has expanded to include providing instruction
statewide, the university maintains its commitment to teacher education and the
close-knit residential environment established early in its history.
The Northern Arizona Normal School Historic District
encompasses slightly more than fourteen acres. The district buildings were
constructed of locally quarried Moenkopi sandstone between 1894 and 1935.
The university's historic district is the largest and best preserved
collection of historic sandstone buildings in the Southwest.
Parking restrictions are in effect Monday-Friday, from 7:30 am to 4:30
pm, except holidays. However, visitor parking permits are available, for $5 a
day, from Parking Services located in the Centennial Building on the corner of
Dupont Avenue and Beaver Street.
Old Main, constructed between 1894 and 1899, set the
standard for sandstone construction on campus. The interior two floors,
finished in 1900, included an assembly room, a library, classrooms, recitation
rooms, an office, and cloak rooms.
In 1901, a practice-teaching area was added. The third floor
interior was completed in 1912. For the first six years of the institution's
existence, Old Main was the Normal School's sole building for twenty-three to
fifty-four students and a handful of staff members. In the early 1900s, wooden
fences were installed around Old Main to prevent the intrusion of horses and
cattle grazing in the nearby forest. In 1961, the interior was converted to a
In 1984, Old Main was restored to its original use as
classroom and office space. Much of the original fabric remains, including the
pressed metal ceilings in several rooms, several cast-iron columns, wooden
floors, and wainscoting. The original president's office and library have been
restored and include the first president's desk.
Today, Old Main is home to Alumni Relations,
University Advancement, and the Art Museum including the Marguerite Hettel
Weiss collection. The museum is open to the public Tuesday-Saturday from noon
to 5 p.m.
Ashurst Building, which adjoins Old Main, was
completed in 1920. Ashurst housed the first auditorium and gathering place for
the Northern Arizona Normal School. At a special assembly held at Ashurst
Auditorium in April 1930, Dr. C.O. Lampland, director of Lowell Observatory,
announced the discovery of the planet Pluto. In 1984, along with Old Main,
Ashurst Auditorium was restored to its original glory, including a pressed
metal ceiling and hardwood floor. The ground floor of Ashurst is currently used
for offices including the Graduate College.

Lego is a staple in every child's toy box - but one fashion design student has proved even adults can enjoy it - by creating a clothing line out of it.
Amelia Bebbington, a student at Middlesex University, in The Burroughs, Hendon, hopes to take the fashion world by storm and fight back against today's disposable clothing culture.
Her collection, inspired by Lego blocks, is 'buildable' and the garments can be zipped and popped together to be turned into something new.
She will display her range, called Build it Wear It, in a fashion show at St Pancras Hotel today.
She said her clothing line was inspired by fashion designer Vivienne Westwood's thoughts on buying clothes: "Her view is that we should all 'buy less, choose well and make it last' - rather than making dodgy impulse purchases, wearing them once or twice and then getting rid of them.
"That sustainable ethos really appeals to me.This is an amazing opportunity to get my designs out there.
"The stakes are pretty high, so of course I'm a bit nervous. But more than anything, I'm excited. Hopefully on the day the clothes will speak for themselves."

SMWC Soccer Team Competes in USCAA Tournament
November 8th, 2010 |
On November 4, 2010, the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College Soccer team left to go to rainy New Hampshire to play in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) national tournament. For the first game of the tournament played on November 5, the SMWC Pomeroys proved that although they were coming in as the eighth seed, they were going to give the number one seed, University of Maine Fort Kent, a challenge. Coach Michael Aycock stated, "Your Pomeroys showed themselves as lionesses today, but could not quite pull off another stunning upset in the first round of the tournament." At the end of the match, the Maine coach commented, "We thought we had a good draw then we were so unlucky to have to play you."
The game was played under cold, wet conditions at Tree Farm Park. The early first half saw the Maine players build a lot of pressure on attacks through their incredibly fast wide players, getting multiple shots onto goal and creating havoc in the Pomeroys' defense. While the Maine players celebrated, the Pomeroys cranked up their game. UMFK had more possession and an advantage in shots, but as the half wore on, the Pomeroys started to play with speed and ferocity of their own, getting to 50/50 balls, getting better attacks and chances, and backing the UMFK midfielders down. The final score was 4-1.
On November 6, 2010, the Pomeroys played their consolation match against number four seed, New Hampshire Technical Institute. In this match, Coach Aycock stated that the team played brilliant soccer, winning the match 4-1. It was a rematch of last year's semifinal which ended in a 2-1 overtime victory for the Pomeroys, and the Lynx came in looking to even that score. However, tuned up by playing the formidable Maine Fort Kent Bengals, the Pomeroys took control early with sharp passing and speed of play. Just before the third minute was over, Britt Simmerman put Sam Morrison in, and she slotted the ball past the Lynx keeper for a 1-0 lead. The Pomeroys kept up a torrid pace and Logan Jones put in the second goal in the 17th minute on a corner kick sequence with another assist from Britt Simmerman to make it 2-0. The first half would see the Pomeroys outshoot the Lynx 17-2 and only allow them into the attacking end of the field 12 times. The third Pomeroy goal came in the 38th minute with Erin Pugh burying a shot on a pass from Julie Debish. In all, the Pomeroy starting eleven only played as a unit for about 30 of the 90 minutes, and every player saw significant playing time.
The Lynx found their best level of play in the second half, keeping closer to the Pomeroys in time of possession, but the Pomeroys struck again as Erin Pugh brought down a long punt from keeper April Baranowski, beat the last two defenders, and struck the ball home for a 4-0 lead in the 60th minute. To her great credit, Lynx goalkeeper Serena Quillin racked up 14 saves in a game that saw the Pomeroys get off 28 shots, 18 of them on goal. The Lynx got a goal back in the 70th minute from their excellent defender moved forward, Jahnna Doherty. The final whistle blew with the Pomeroys firmly in control.
Besides proving they belonged in at least the top four seeds, the Pomeroys also took away a raft of awards. Five Pomeroys earned Academic All-American honors: April Baranowski, Maureen Brown, Emily Contreraz, Erin Pugh, and Britt Simmerman. Erin Pugh was named an USCAA All-American for the second time, a new record for Pomeroy players, and April Baranowski won Honorable Mention All-American honors. Britt Simmerman, for her superb and gritty play anchoring the middle of the park, was named to the All-Tournament Team. It was a very successful trip, partly to provide the first-year players experience in tournament play and partly to show USCAA that The Woods is a legitimate soccer power in this level of play.

One of the challenges of moving from a house to an apartment is room size. The master bedroom in my house is large enough to accommodate my king size bed and other furniture. The bedroom I will have at the apartment is much smaller and my king size bed will not fit.
My neighbour has offered to buy the king size bed and I'm happy with this but now I have the question of a new bed. Here are my options:
- Buy a new queen size bed frame & mattress set that I really love – price will be around $3000
- Buy a new queen size bed frame & mattress set that will do for now but not really 100% my taste from Ikea or similar store – price will be around $1500
- Use an antique mahogany sleigh bed I've had since I was a child (and is currently not in use) and buying a double size mattress set that will fit it – price will be around $1000 (or less) for mattress set
I could talk myself into going with option #1 pretty easily. I've found a unique queen size bed that I really love and I could tell myself it's an investment piece that will last me many years. I could also tell myself that the money my neighbour is paying for the king size bed will help pay for the bed. Then I could tell myself that, since I'm not really buying any new furnishings I really can afford this one little splurge. And finally I could tell myself that part of my new life without my husband I deserve the luxury of this new bed.
With option #2 things are a bit trickier. I don't really love any of the beds in this price range. While having a queen sized bed would be nice when compared to the double bed in option #3 at the same time it seems a bigger waste of money to buy a less expensive bed that I don't really love than to buy the more expensive one in option #1. I think option #2 can safely be eliminated now.
Option #3 is the most frugal option in the long run. It's both frugal with my money and it's frugal with my available space. The bed itself is an absolutely gorgeous mahogany sleighbed that's around 200 years old. It's a piece of furniture that has been in storage for a few years which really is a shame. The craftsmanship and beauty of it cannot be found in today's modern furniture. However, it's only a double size not a queen. The move from a king size bed to a double size bed is going to take some getting used to. And while it's clearly smaller than a queen, the bed frame itself has a headboard nearly 5 ft tall and a foot board about 3 ft tall which creates a lot of visual clutter for me. My personal taste and style runs to contemporary in style and the heavy ornate feel of this antique is not in keeping with the rest of my furnishings.
Some quick info on sizes:
- A Standard King size – 76 inches wide
- A Standard Queen size – 60 inches wide
- A Standard Double (also called Full) size – 54 inches wide
I'm stuck between options 1 and 3 now. I really don't know what I should do. The frugal angel on my shoulder is telling me to go with option #3 but the devil shopper on my other shoulder is telling me to splurge just this once on option #1.
Update: I've decided to not just talk the frugal talk but to walk the frugal walk this time. I'm going with option #3. I'm going to use the antique sleigh bed which only requires me to purchase a full size mattress. The most frugal (and sensible) option.
You thought I'd cave in and go with option #1, didn't you? Yeah, me too.
Update #2: This post was featured on edition #133 of the Festival of Frugality. Check it out. Lots of great frugal features there.

Did you know?
Cape Town's first theatre was opened in 1801 at Riebeeck Square in the city centre.
When it comes to drama, the Mother City is a real prima donna. Whether it's Shakespearean period pieces, rousing dance, razzmatazz musicals, mirthful stand-up comedy, or alternative fringe theatre, you're bound to find something to suit your taste in the theatres of Cape Town.
Shakespeare buffs must visit the Maynardville Open-Air Theatre. It stages professional productions of Shakespearean plays. Comprising a striking wooden stage set under a canopy of foliage, with a statue of the Bard of Avon himself standing sentry, Maynardville is unabashedly the quintessential African home of all things Shakespearean.
If it's a verdant Winelands Cape Town theatre setting you're after, try Spier in exquisite Stellenbosch for its open-air amphitheatre.
Undisputedly, the Artscape is the chief theatre in Cape Town. With a huge opera-house setting, seating over a thousand, a large theatre seating over 500, and two smaller sets, this colossal theatre complex offers some of the best international and local shows on the theatre circuit.
The Baxter Theatre is another one of the Cape stalwarts. Situated in the leafy suburb of Rondebosch, this theatre house hosts some of the ritziest productions on the country's theatrical calendar.
If intimacy is on your agenda, then give the Theatre on the Bay a whirl. Set in the well-heeled Camps Bay locale, it offers a theatre-dinner combo worth experiencing. The Kalk Bay Theatre is housed in a heritage-protected church in the picturesque fishing village of Kalk Bay, and enjoys a cult patronage.
For community theatre, head over to Muizenburg's Masque Theatre. This theatre offers amateur dramatic performances, giving the work of lesser-known playwrights a chance to be seen.
The 280-seater Fugard Theatre – Cape Town's latest theatre asset – is located within the Sacks Futeran building in the historic District Six, with the renovated Congregational Church Hall in Caledon Street as its entrance. It is named after Athol Fugard, South Africa's greatest playwright.
Most tickets for Cape Town theatres can be booked at the theatres, or through national ticket-seller Computicket.

How to get here
The fair Cape's theatres are all easily accessible by road.
Best time to visit
Theatre is an entertainment mainstay all year long, but do check the local press for visiting shows or shows with great reviews. If it's Shakespeare you're after, visit in the balmy summer months for outside amphitheatre shows.
Tours to do
Any reputable tour company will be able to advise on must-see theatre shows in all the country's main cities.
Get around
Most taxi cabs will be able to collect you and drop you at the theatre door.
What will it cost
Cost of shows differ from theatre complex to theatre complex, and sometimes are even free! Consult each theatre's website, or check with Computicket.
Length of stay
Bank on an evening, and throw in a dinner and post-show cappuccino too.
What to pack
A shawl, or jumper to cover your shoulders during showtime.
What to eat
Some of South Africa's theatre complexes come replete with restaurants and coffee shops offering meals and refreshments. At some, for instance the Barnyard chain, you can even bring your own pre-packed picnic basket.
Best buys
Look out for bang-for-your-buck student productions at the acclaimed University of Cape Town – these are often free to the public.

Paulman - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkNOOoooo, what does this mean for their sponsorship of pro-gaming team Evil Geniuses?! #IntelExtremeBoards :( Reply
EnzoFX - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkProbably nothing. Reply
karasaj - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkThey'll probably just market the CPUs more, or maybe ultrabooks/gaming notebooks or tablets. Reply
formulav8 - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkThe last I remember Foxconn made the Intel boards anyways. So they weren't truly Intel boards. They just said the specs they wanted and then did they're maybe better quality control. Thats about it iirc. Reply
Samus - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkFoxconn has actually been manufacturing Intel's motherboards since 2001. But that's not all that surprising. I remember reading somewhere Foxconn actually makes about 50% of motherboard PCB's world-wide. What's really interesting is my Intel X58 board says made in Mexico, and according to Wikipedia, Foxconn indeed has computer component manufacturing plants in Juarez and San Jeronimo Reply
tim851 - Thursday, January 24, 2013 - linkYep. Slap Intel's logo (and marketing) on a Foxconn board and people are gonna perceive it to be of higher quality. Works the same way with T-shirts. Reply
GruntboyX - Saturday, January 26, 2013 - linkfor the most part i agree. However Intel's bios/UEFI was better tested and I had better luck with stability. I think that was one of the bigger advantages of buying an Intel board.
I also enjoyed there support. Reply
hp79 - Sunday, January 27, 2013 - linkBios better tested? My DH67CF bricked to an unrecoverable state using one of their bios updates. Several other DH67CF board users bricked theirs too. I had to RMA it to a refurbished one after one week of usage.
On the same model, I couldn't use USB 3.0 ports (Renesas) at all because it freezes every damn time I copy large amount (2GB+) of files. I had it replaced 2 times, tried connecting different USB 3.0 HDDs and different flash drives, flashed different firmwares, installed different drivers, nothing worked. Eventually, I got a full refund from intel. Forget about USB 3.0 if you are using DH67CF.
And then there's problems with Windows 8 and intel's USB 3.0 eXtensible controllers. They don't supply proper drivers and just tell customers to use the one that's included in Windows 8.
Intel motherboards are not what they used to be, and I'm never going to buy intel motherboards again. Actually, I bought an ASUS board with H77 chipset. No more headaches for me. Reply
CK804 - Monday, October 31, 2016 - linkThe last I remember Foxconn made the Apple iPhones anyways. So they aren't truly Apple iPhones.
Foxconn is an electronics manufacturing giant. Many, many companies contract out the manufacturing of their products to Foxconn. There's a big difference between design and manufacturing. Intel motherboards weren't simply rebadged Foxconn motherboards. Reply
althaz - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkThis! I bought an Intel Extreme mobo mostly because EG has my favourite Starcraft player (Huk!) and is sponsored by Intel. The motherboard is fantastic, btw. Reply
sheh - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkWere Intel a noteworthy player? I've never considered buying an Intel board. I was barely aware of their existence in this market.
And... Intel exited the consumer SSD biz? Reply
mevans336 - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkIntel boards are all I buy because they are rock solid stable and generally use good quality components like Intel LAN controllers and the higher quality audio codecs. I've had too many problems with the other manufacturers.
Looks like I'll be trial-and-erroring for a new manufacturer after Haswell. Bummer.
I'm also puzzled by the SSD comment ... Reply
sheh - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkRe SSD exit, maybe the article jumps the gun. Reply
Wolfpup - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkYeah, I always buy Intel boards too because they just work. I've never had a single issue with an Intel board, and frequently have problems with third party boards, even when they're built by the same company.
The SSD comment is because Intel so far doesn't have their own controller in an SSD past the 320. The 320's still a good drive, but I was a big fan of Intel's controllers, and it's weird they just quit making them in favor of using now Sandforce of all things (and it's not like there was no effort in using Sandforce-they spent a year trying to fix Sandforce's bugs). Reply
MegabyteBob - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkHi
I agree.
My company has been an Intel IPD and Gold partner sice Intel initiated the program. Before then we ran the gamut, Gigabyte, MSI etal and while these companies put out some nice boards they, in no way could compare to the stability and durability of the Intel products.
What's more is that NONE of those board companies could compare and probably still don't compare with Intel's support & service. That will be the biggest factor. As an IPD we have a direct line to tech support, advance ship RMA and othe nice program features professional system builder like us needs to compete. Now, if we go back to those other boards we will be relegated back marginal tech support and little or no customer service.
It is sad. Reply
ac2 - Friday, January 25, 2013 - linkApart from being rock stable (none of that Fatality/ ROG nonsense thanks) the other big advantage is running Linux without any worries re hardware driver/ compatibility thanks to how closely Intel works with Linux dev...
Well they're not exiting chipsets and given the all-in-one nature of chipsets now-a-days, shouldn't be a problem (fingers crossed) as long as mobo makers look at Intel components first when they want to add additional components beyond the chipset... Reply
mcored - Friday, December 13, 2013 - linkI am shocked too. For the last 15 years, Intel motherboards have been all I buy because of their stability. Now I have to be look for a new manufacturer as well. Sigh. Reply
Mr Perfect - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkI don't use them for personal builds, but they're the only thing we use for workstations at work. Intel boards don't have fancy features, but they just plain work. We still have a pair of Intel D815EGEW boards(Pentium 3) here that work fine. I do not look forward to using third party boards in the price range Intel offered their products at. Other manufacturerd' $50 to $75 boards tend to keel over pretty fast, and you're lucky to get drivers for them after the new line comes out.
I can understand traditional PC companies trying to get away from dying consumer PC markets, but the business world is going to miss them. Reply
Gigaplex - Friday, January 25, 2013 - linkIntel are pretty quick to drop development of drivers/firmware for past products. For example, the GMA X3000 in the G965 chipset was advertised as DirectX 10 capable hardware with driver support coming later. They never released a DirectX 10 driver. Reply
Oxford Guy - Monday, January 28, 2013 - linkAnd Intel left X-25M G1 owners holding the bag because it never bothered to update the firmware to support TRIM.
lame Reply
Azurael - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkI can't say I'm surprised - Intel boards have never had a massive following amongst enthusiasts - probably the only people buying computers in component form at retail these days.
It's kinda sad (funnily enough, I'm writing this from a machine with an Intel board in it - our HTPC) but as you said in the article, the third party boards are stable and complete enough these days that we don't really need Intel themselves in the marketplace. Going back 15 years (which is about when I started building PCs) that definitely wasn't the case!
This whole concept of integration that's going on with desktops at the moment worries me a little, but then I have to think when I last changed a CPU without also changing the motherboard it sat in - I think it was a Super7 board going from a K6-2 to a K6-3! Reply
lurker22 - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkIt's really true. By the time one is usually ready for a CPU upgrade (i.e. something is significant enough for an upgrade), you almost always need a new motherboard because of new ram standard, i/O standard, or new CPU socket. The CPU upgrade is a myth.... Reply
Wolfpup - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkHmm, unfortunately that's true. I think it's a shame that more enthusiasts weren't concerned with stability first. So many seem focused on overclocking, which we now know damanges a part even if it's stable. I've always figured if I have the money to destroy a CPU, I have the money to just buy a new CPU when I need something faster. Reply
overzealot - Thursday, January 24, 2013 - linkBecause we still stay stable, and several years ahead of the performance curve.
We always knew it would things out faster, but other parts of our PC die well before our CPU, so we don't care if we wear it out early. The worst case is we need to drop the clock speed, which means we're still running it faster than you when you replace yours. Reply
overzealot - Thursday, January 24, 2013 - linkwould *wear* things Reply
tim851 - Thursday, January 24, 2013 - linkAlways with the urban legends.
It's obvious from your comment that you don't know sh*t about overclocking. So why do you feel the need to comment on it? Are you whistleing in the dark woods? Reply
EnzoFX - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkGlad it will be further developed! Reply
lurker22 - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkactually I remember in the 1990s (I think that's when Intel moved into the business) that Intel motherboards were the gold standard for reliability and quality (I actually still think this). The belief was/is they made the chipset, so who better to make the motherboard stable and reliable. Reply
mooninite - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkWith the debut of solid-caps and other hardy electronics on motherboards and the addition of SOC-like Intel CPUs, the 3rd party manufacturers actually surpass the quality of Intel motherboards. Intel took its sweet time including solid-caps on their motherboards. Not to mention Intel, until recently, forbid overclocking on their motherboards.
There is no reason, not for stability or reliability, to buy a Intel board today. You've bought into their marketing hype or FUD from 10 years ago if you still think Intel boards are the premium models. The Big Three (ASUS/Gigabyte/MSI) have the market cornered and their desktop boards are extremely reliable. Server boards? Supermicro/Tyan dominate the market.
OEMs buy from the Big Three for their desktops and make custom designs for their servers. They won't lose any sleep either. Reply
Stahn Aileron - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkI have always been an Intel consumer because I like using reference (Intel) MBs with Intel CPUs. In fact, part of the reason I've stayed on the Intel side (despite the mistake known as the Pentium 4) is because Intel designed and manufactured their on own MBs. (I've use 855, 955, 975, P35, and P55 chipsets personally over the years since 2001). I knew with little doubt that their CPUs would work on their boards with little to no issues. All the MBs I ever owned have been rock solid. I like first-party products overall, actually.
This kinda reminds of when ATI stopped producing abd selling their own video card designs and just let their OEM partners bring actual products to market. I was saddened back then just as I am now with this kind of announcement. (For GPUs, I've since switched to Sapphire, FYI.)
On the other hand, I guess I should've seen this coming. Intel's consumer MB line up has been a mess ever since the LGA1366/1156 socket split for high-end vs mainstream. That split hoenstly screwed up a lot for the consumers since MBs were artifically differentiated by the weirdest availability of feature sets. (I'm also fairly pissed about the quick turnover of LGA1366/1156 with LGA2011/1155 in just one tick/tock cycle. 1366 to 2011 I can KINDA unsderstand, but what the hell drove the necessity of replacing 1156 with 1155? Was the new microarchitecture that different?) The Intel MB selection had really died down and was fairly limited since after the 9xx-series chipsets, IMHO. The mainstream boards were a little TOO basic (not much slection either) and the highend was oddly split between prosumer and enthusiast because of unique features sets not included in the other target demographic.
Anyway, an off-topic question before I rant anymore:
Any rumors of Intel trying to create a heterogeneous CPU using both the Core and Atom microarchitectures, similar in idea to ARM's big.LITTLE? Reply
ArtShapiro - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkThe Intel boards have generally been very electrically efficient. I'm writing this on a Intel MB machine (2500K CPU) in an Antec 300-65 case - that uses a 65 watt power supply for a reasonably-powerful desktop computer. I'm sorry to see them leave the market. Reply
xrror - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkThis really drives home the point that the DIY PC as we know it is going away.
It's kinda hard to build motherboards when there are no longer any socketed chips! Yes you can, but then you're in channel conflict with other building integrated cpu+system solutions.
And while I personally hate it, I don't see how with the focus on ever smaller and power efficiency could continue with physically modular components =(
It's going to be rough for all the motherboard manufacturers, it's going to be a few brutal years and then by 2015 will there be any "mainstream DIY" left? Reply
rupaniii - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkIt just seems that we're going to be stuck having to buy integrated BGA solutions or have a very limited selection.
While AMD could capitalize on this, they are moving onto a new core, ARM. Reply
DanNeely - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkThe way I've read intel still doing socketed parts but at a slower cadence is that the tock will be mobile only; with new desktop parts only coming out for ticks. The last few tocks haven't really done much for the desktop after all. The main gains have been slightly better power efficiency which matters a lot more on mobile devices and a significantly better IGP which is mostly irrelevant to anyone building a desktop from parts.

Haswell1150 - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkSo does the mean that Intel won't be making the motherboard for Apple and Dell? Reply

Haswell1150 - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkThen who does make the motherboards for Apple and Dell? Reply
DanNeely - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkProbably FoxConn. They're the back end of 99% of outsourced tech manufacture. Reply
Computer Bottleneck - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkNot sure what to make of this announcement. On the surface it appears to be bad news.
But if Intel can make something great happen for Ultrabook and tablet FFRD it could get very interesting.
In the past I have been quite sad to see Intel Notebook Platforms like "Spring Peak" fade away without (as far as I can tell) a replacement. Maybe now Intel will finally have the resources allocated to make strides in this area?
It will be interesting to follow along over the next 3 to 5 years to see how closely Intel can close the gap between mobile white box and the proprietary OEM designs. Reply
jjj - Tuesday, January 22, 2013 - linkthis confirms that they are killing the desktop SKUs, at least the reasonable priced ones. Reply
twindragon6 - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkJust get yourself a nice Asus or Gigabyte board like you have been doing for some time now anyways. Intel started to get interesting with the board pictured in the article above. But while exceptionally stable, most of their boards are unimpressive, jank and sub par mainly catering to OEMs. Reply
peterwhitehouse - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkFor the small system builder Intel provided the total package that you simply cannot get from any of the third party mainboard manufacturers;-
1. Best warranty including AWR cross ship advanced replacements, guaranteed to receive exactly the same model in replacement which is very important if you are putting systems into corporate or education markets
2. All integrator tools provided for BIOS customization & branding
3. Stable product roadmap without lots of silly revisions using different audio codecs & lan phys
4. Stable image program giving a set of boards and drivers which will be supported for a minimum 18 months to give software image stability.
5. Niche products available in the channel, you try finding a Thin Mini ITX mainboard from another manufacturer outside of being bundled with some form of barebone aio or slim system (which defeats the point of Thin Mini ITX by the way) Reply
MegabyteBob - Friday, January 25, 2013 - linkTruer words were never spoken and well said.
As a Gold partner since the program inception we are going to miss Intel's offering ofdesktop boards and all the other things you mentioned in your post.
I do not look forward to dealing with substandard motheboards from vendors who have NO idea what real techinical support and customer service is. Their biggest claim to fame is putting multicolored slots on their motherboards. Reply
Pessimism - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkLike a couple others said, guess I'll be in for an uphill battle when I need to build a system for a client that Just Works, without having to deal with strange problems and the latest SuperMagicTurboHappyEnerSaver garbage that I have to hunt down and disable for the box to run right. Reply
pugster - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkThis is the part where I would disagree with Intel that they should exit the desktop motherboard segment. Intel has created standards for ATX and BTX mobo designs and later mini atx and itx designs. Now many manufacturers are creating desktop designs that are smaller than that in order to compete with the mac mini. Perhaps Intel should create a standard for micro desktop design that would compete with mac mini. Reply
DanNeely - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkYou mean like the NUC?
In any case even if Intel was sleeping on the job, Via's pushed down into smaller sizes than miniITX; with the 120x120mm nanoITX and 100x72mm picoITX form factors.

Beenthere - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkTheir desktop mobos have been average to poor for many years. They made their money with OE mainboards until the Asians took that away from them too. With their frequent design and manufacturing defects in mobos, chipsets and CPUs, it's no surprise that InHell is closing down their desktop mobo group. Reply
WaltC - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkYawn... Most people didn't buy Intel-branded boards, anyway, because they were overpriced relative to OEMs like Asus, MSI, etc. who have always sold the same thing or more for less $. IIRC, Intel has has been out of the Intel-branded motherboard retail market for longer than it has been in it. Outside of cpus, Intel doesn't do so well when it tries to sell its own brands at retail. Same thing happened with discrete gpus. Intel failed, packed its marbles and went home. Intel is a chip company that has always had trouble with retail products--something it is more than happy to leave to other companies. Bye-bye, again, bud. Hardly knew ye...;)

Arbee - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkIf processors are going largely or exclusively BGA with Broadwell then that means each motherboard model will have to be made and sold as a separate SKU with each compatible processor installed. That's a far, far less attractive business model than how motherboards are now. You no longer can crank out x number of boards and know that one board covers people building with 10 different CPU models. Instead you have to try and make the right number with each individual processor.
I can't imagine any mobo makers that aren't also supplying pre-built PC makers putting up with this for long to service the DIY/hobbyist market, unfortunately. Reply
Purpose - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkIntel motherboards have always been poor performing, barren of features, lacking configuration options, and more expensive than other third party products that bring a significant amount more functionality to the table.
I mean really, as far back as the Celeron 300A era, nobody was buying Intel motherboards(especially your readership).
I challenge you to provide even *ONE* example of an Intel produced board that was relevant to your readership here. Something that every one of your readers would purchase over a competing equivalent product. Something that made your readers say something like: 'Damn, that 300A was something else if you put it on a BH6!'
I mean really, can you even cite a single example where you recommended an Intel motherboard over every other product to your readership? I can't remember any examples. The only thing I ever remember being said about Intel boards is that there are better options available. Reply
Hulk - Wednesday, January 23, 2013 - linkAs we all know the trend with processors lately has been to move more and more of what used to be on the motherboard to the CPU. This would drive down motherboard costs and therefore profit. I think Intel sees the future better than we do and realizes the motherboard as we used to know it is evolving into more of a "place to connect the stuff." Reply
WaltC - Thursday, January 24, 2013 - linkIntel is simply dropping its own retail motherboard sales--it isn't stopping the manufacture of socketed motherboards & retail cpus...;) BTW, surface-mount technology is back to the future--not the future. In the 1980's, everything was surface mounted. Wanted a new cpu in those days? Buy a new motherboard. Ugh! Reply

COCOA BEACH, Fla. - A 14-year-old girl who vanished from her Cocoa Beach bedroom was found safe Monday night in Brevard County.
[PHOTOS: Girl vanishes from Cocoa Beach home]
Jordan Taylor Fagan was reported missing Monday morning from her home at 105 Park Lane near State Road A1A in Cocoa Beach, and police said the screen on her bedroom window was found to have been cut.
Monday evening, a deputy driving on State Road 528, just west of Port Canaveral, saw Jordan walking westbound along the side of the road. She had not yet made it to State Road 3, police said.
Jordan, who was not injured, was questioned at a sheriff substation and later reunited with family. She told detectives that she ran away from home and cut the screen so she could leave unnoticed, police said.
She also said she was not aware of the massive search effort, and she spent the majority of the day at the Port, police said.
Between the Cocoa Beach Police Department, Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the Brevard County Sheriff's Office, the man hour estimate on the search is 424.5 hours, according to Cocoa Beach police.
Police said there's no crime against running away, so no charges have been filed.
Police said Jordan's mother's boyfriend was home Sunday night when Jordan went to bed, the last time she was seen at around 10:30 p.m. Jordan's mother went to wake her up for school Monday morning, and Jordan was missing, police said.
A hole was found cut in the window screen, and it was large enough for a person to climb through, police said. Police are investigating Jordan's disappearance as a possible abduction or a possible runaway.
"Nothing inside the room our outside the room leads us to believe anything criminal in nature occurred," said Major Jay Harmon of Cocoa Beach police. "However, as you are aware as I am, if you have a cut screen, you have an issue."
Police said they are looking into every possibility in connection with the teen's disappearance, including checking on registered sex offenders who live nearby, which is standard procedure.
"This is a surprise to everybody," an official said.
Police also said they have unsuccessfully tried to pick up Jordan's scent in the neighborhood, as detectives went door-to-door questioning neighbors. Although police haven't ruled out the possibility Jordan was abducted they have been checking out several possible sightings.
"One of the calls we got was that a female matching that description was seen walking westbound on 528 at seven o-clock this morning," said Harmon.
Jordan, who attends Christian Prep Learning Center, was described as "very quiet" by her teacher, Kenny Borst, who said Jordan sometimes socialized with classmates but often kept to herself and read a lot.
Borst tells Local 6 he doesn't see Jordan as a runaway.
"Not to me. We're tight knit here she's very quiet, but she does participate in things with the kids," Borst said.
He also said he's told his students and her parents that she's missing.
"I've instructed them to keep their eyes out around town for her, and the fit people to contact just in case they do see her, because they are out and about and they all live in this area," Borst said.
Jordan's father lives on Merritt Island and went to Jordan's home after learning about her disappearance.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio's Republican governor plans to join President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron to watch an NCAA tournament basketball game in Dayton, Ohio.
Gov. John Kasich's (KAY'-siks) spokesman said the first-term governor planned to greet the leaders upon their arrival and travel in the presidential motorcade to the "First Four" matchup between Mississippi Valley State and Western Kentucky on Tuesday night
Spokesman Rob Nichols said he didn't know whether Kasich would be riding in the same vehicle as the two men. He said Kasich was to sit in the same proximity as the leaders, and that the governor also shares "a tremendous interest in basketball."
Nichols said Kasich planned to give Obama letters from his twin daughters, who wanted to welcome the Democratic president to the state.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio's spring primary field will take shape as candidates make it official by the filing deadline.
People wanting to run for federal, state or local-office nominations May 6 had until 4 p.m. EST Wednesday to submit their paperwork.
Barring a late surprise, neither party will have a primary battle in the Ohio governor's race.
Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald has been running for the Democratic nomination since early last year. Hamilton County Commissioner Todd Portune (POR'-toon) late last week abandoned plans to challenge him.
Meanwhile, Gov. John Kasich (KAY'-sik) hasn't drawn any opposition on the Republican side. Tea party activists had talked about running a candidate in the primary, but none of the potential candidates discussed moved forward.

Could the above statement be true? It seems difficult to believe, but the numbers – at least numbers published today to the industry by Bain & Co, the consulting firm, in its 10th annual Worldwide Luxury Goods Market study (on general release later this week) – seem to say yes.
Consider: according to the Bain report, 2011 is going to be a record-setting year for the luxury market. Yes, you read that right. Bain predicts the industry will increase by 10 per cent beyond its current value of sales, which it estimates at €173bn. That would be growth of 13 per cent over 2009.
What's more, the strongest markets are not just China (as expected), but also the Americas and western Europe, with sales in Europe up 10 per cent and those in the Americas 16 per cent higher. Put another way: the two most beleaguered global areas where the jobless numbers have risen are the places where someone (tourists?) are spending. A lot. Especially on high-margin watches and jewellery.
Weird, right? Read more

By Ben Ellison — January 2003
The towing industry is certainly aware of this confusion, and Sea Tow, TowBoatU.S., and Vessel Assist all have detailed information about the difference between service towing and salvage on their Web sites. The latter two organizations go a step further by requiring their contract captains to inform a member when the circumstances are perilous enough to warrant salvage. Morgan questions this policy, saying that this information is hard to impart and potentially counterproductive, especially in the noise and bustle of a boat just aground with waves and wakes threatening further damage. What if Manin--as he fervently wishes--had been informed of the salvage claim and had decided to go in on his own? Might he have incurred worse damage or perhaps had his insurance claim rejected for refusing help? Or did the salvage reward motivate Estey and Morgan to be deliberately vague?
And what about $30,000 for about an hour's work? The insurance professionals I interviewed confirmed the gray aspects of salvage, saying that pay-outs to legally astute salvors can be pretty "generous," but also note how many valuable hulls they've saved. They advise becoming informed about salvage contracts or calling before salvage commences, if possible.
Morgan took me for a spin in his robust twin-diesel jet towboat (specially built to work Hillsboro Inlet after he lost a prop boat in a desperate salvage attempt there), regaling me with the costs and hassles of operating a six-boat, 20-man towing and salvage operation. He also told me that some other operators, even ones in his own parent Sea Tow organization, are actually the "pirates" some boaters more skeptical than Manin presume them to be, an accusation I heard often during my research.
Looking back on that Sunday at Hillsboro, we shouldn't forget that two towboats were on scene in minutes. That's excellent service, regardless of their intentions. Now, to avoid the sort of painful surprises that Manin suffered, we should understand that these captains wear two hats and that sometimes those hats may not appear to be white.
Ben Ellison has been a delivery captain and navigation instructor for nearly 30 years and was recently editor of Reed's Nautical Almanacs.

In Exercise 3.1 you learned how to dispatch an event from the
Choose component instance and handle it in the main application to make the
Preview component instance visible.
In this exercise you will pass data from the
Choose component instance to the
Preview component instance (see Figure 1). To accomplish this, you must do more than just create, instantiate, and dispatch an event. To pass data with the event, you must extend the Event type by creating your own ActionScript class to manage the additional data.
You want all of the functionality of the Event class, but you need the ability to store custom data in the event object. In this section, you will create a new ActionScript class that extends the Event class with additional class properties. By extending the Event class, you maintain access to all of its functionality and can add your own properties to store the data.
Preview custom component which contains the Employee of the Month Panel container (see Figure 2). In the previous exercise you made the Employee of the Month panel invisible when the application started up, and then made it visible only when the user clicked the Preview button in the
Choose custom component.
You can see that the Preview button click is handled by the
preview_clickHandler() function, which instantiates an event object of the
showPreview event type and dispatches it to the main application.
chooseEmployee component instance.
You can see that the main application handles the
showPreview event with the
chooseEmployee_showPreviewHandler() event handler, which makes the
Preview component instance visible.
showPreview event type defined in the
Metadata tag block of the
Choose custom component.
Your New ActionScript Class dialog box should appear as shown in Figure 5.
The ShowPreview.as file opens in the editor. Note that line 5 declares the ShowPreview class and extends the Event class (see Figure 6).
In this section, you will declare the properties to be used with the ShowPreview class. Remember that each of these properties are the reason that you are creating an event class. They will hold the data from the
Choose custom component. Specifically, they will hold information from the DropDownList control for the selected employee as well as the text that is typed into the congratulatory message TextArea control.
ShowPreview() constructor function, type employeeInfo and use the quick assist tool (Ctrl+1) to create a variable. Modify the generated variable so that you have a
public variable named
employeeInfo data typed to the Object class.
public class ShowPreview extends Event
public var employeeInfo:Object;
public function ShowPreview(type:String, bubbles:Boolean=false, cancelable:Boolean=false)
Because the
employeeInfo property is an object, it can contain many name-value pairs of data. It will be used to hold all the data for the selected item in the DropDownList control of the
Choose component. Remember that the DropDownList control is populated with data from the employees.xml file in the data directory. Although the control's
labelField property is set to display only the
firstName values from the XML file, remember that
title, and all the other nodes in the XML file are also stored as name-value pairs in the DropDownList control.
employeeInfo variable, use quick assist to declare a public variable named
message and data type it to the
String class:
public var employeeInfo:Object;
public var message:String;
message property of this new class will hold the string data that is typed into the TextArea control of the
Choose custom component.
You just created the properties, but now you must populate them with information.
When an ActionScript class is instantiated using the new keyword, data can be passed to the instance between the parentheses of the constructor. In this section, you will define arguments for the constructor function that will accept data.
ShowPreview() constructor and the nested
super() method, remove the bubbles and cancelable parameters.
public function ShowPreview(type:String)
The first argument in the constructor is the name of the event type. Remember the event types that you have already encountered are
click and
change. In this case, the event type that you will declare is the
showPreview event type defined in the
Metadata compiler directive.
ShowPreview() function, add the
employeeInfo and
message variables as parameters; be sure to apply the corresponding data type to each.
public function ShowPreview(type:String, employeeInfo:Object, message:String)
ShowPreview() function, below the
super() method, assign the
employeeInfo and the
message constructor arguments as the values for the corresponding class properties.
public function ShowPreview(type:String,employeeInfo:Object,message:String)
this.employeeInfo = employeeInfo;
this.message = message;
You use the
this keyword before the class properties to distinguish between the class property and the constructor arguments in the assignment.
You will no longer be creating an instance of the default flash.events.Event class. You want to instantiate the ShowPreview class that can accept the additional data. In this section, you will adjust the Choose custom component's Metadata compiler directive to include the
showPreview event type.
MetaData tag set.
type parameter of the nested
Event() method, change the assigned value to
[Event(name="showPreview", type="events.ShowPreview")]
The ShowPreview class is in the events folder of the Flex project so the class package references that folder. Keep in mind that the
showPreview (lowercase s) value is the event type, similar to the
click or
change event types you've used in other components. ShowPreview (capital S) is the event class.
In other words, you will be creating an instance of the ShowPreview class and dispatching the
showPreview event that will be handled in the main application.
Remember the scenario for this application includes the user choosing a name from the DropDownList control, typing a congratulatory message and then clicking the Preview button.
Currently, when the user clicks the Preview button, the
click event is handled by the
preview_clickHandler() function, which creates a generic event object that dispatches the
showPreview event.
In this section, you will modify the
preview_clickHandler() function to create a ShowPreview event object that contains data and that dispatches the
showPreview event.
Script block, below the event handlers comment, locate the
preview_clickHandler() function.
protected function preview_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
var eventObject:Event = new Event("showPreview");
eventObject variable data type to
protected function preview_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
var eventObject:ShowPreview = new Event("showPreview");
eventObject variable to an instance of the ShowPreview class, passing
showPreview as the type parameter, the selected entry from the
employeeList DropDownList control as the
employeeInfo parameter and the text value of the message TextArea control as the
message parameter.
Note: The
employeeList.selectedItem property holds the object data for the currently selected item in the DropDownList control.
protected function preview_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
var eventObject:ShowPreview = new ShowPreview("showPreview", employeeList.selectedItem, message.text);
Script block, locate the import statements comment.
import statement, add it below the statement that imports the mx.collections.ArrayCollection package.
// import statements ----------------------------------------
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import events.ShowPreview;
Note: If you used the Flash Builder code hinting options when you created the ShowPreview event object, then the
import statement would have been created automatically.
When the user clicks the Preview button, the data from the DropDownList control and the congratulatory message are now packaged in the event object and dispatched to the main application.
In this section you will update the
showPreview event's handler in the main application to pass the data into the
Preview component instance for display in the Employee of the Month panel.
Script block, locate the
chooseEmployee_showPreviewHandler() function.
event parameter to be a data type of the ShowPreview class.
protected function chooseEmployee_showPreviewHandler(event:ShowPreview):void
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.visible = true;
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth component's
employeeInfo property value to
protected function chooseEmployee_showPreviewHandler(event:ShowPreview):void
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.visible = true;
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.employeeInfo = event.employeeInfo;
Remember that the
Preview custom component expects two properties:
employeeInfo and
message. Open the Preview.mxml file to see those properties and how they are bound to the UI elements in the Panel container.
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth component's
message property a value of
protected function chooseEmployee_showPreviewHandler(event:ShowPreview):void
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.visible = true;
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.employeeInfo = event.employeeInfo;
previewEmployeeOfTheMonth.message = event.message;
Script block, locate the
import statements comment.
import statement, import the events.ShowPreview package.
// import statements ----------------------------------------
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
import events.ShowPreview;
You should see the Employee of the Month container appear populated with data (see Figure 9).
In this exercise you learned how to extend an ActionScript class and dispatch and handle a custom event. In the next exercise you will aggregate data from the form into a second packet of data, or value object, that contains all the vehicle request information.

Topic: First Chemo Cycle Complete
First cycle of chemo is now complete. My wife had Cis/Gem on Tuesday, May 7 and then on the 14th. So far the biggest issue is fatigue. Minor nausea but it is managed with meds.
On Thursday, she received a shot of Neulasta. She is a little achy and sore from that, but again, the meds seem to be managing the discomfort.
We will meet with her Oncologist on Thursday and hopefully get ready for the start of the second cycle on Tuesday, May 28.
As so many before me know, this is the beginning of a journey that we never knew we'd be on. We look at each day with more meaning and we are thankful for having our children near so they can spend time with their wonderful mother and help her along the journey.

People will tell you they love character. That they love
quirk and eccentricity, that it's important to be 'just that little bit
different'. They will then buy a Volkswagen. Proper non-linear choices are for
other people, excuses mumbled and quickly forgotten as daydreams get furiously
battered by resale values and the potential for disparaging sucking of teeth
down the pub. It takes a brave soul to really buck the system. Which is Skoda's
niche. A company providing an excuse to buy a VW without actually buying a VW.
The rather elegant paradox of conformist non-conformity.

PROTESTERS took to the streets to demonstrate against a controversial firm which currently carries out the 'fitness for work' tests on disabled benefit claimants.
Activists from across Herefordshire and Worcestershire assembled outside the Atos assessment centre in Farrier Street, Worcester, on Wednesday to coincide with other demonstrations around the country.
They also marched to Worcester Bridge and the Guildhall.
Rich Morris, who is campaigning against Atos in Worcester, said: "The group wants to send a clear message to the public and the vulnerable that they are not alone and a message to government that we will not stand-by as innocent people are targeted in this way."
