ASUS today announced the P9X79-E WS motherboard, designed to offer highly scalable expandability with seven PCI Express 3.0 slots, with support for up to 4-way NVIDIA GeForce SLI or AMD CrossFireX in x16 links. The P9X79-E WS includes ASUS Dr. Power, which helps prevent sudden shutdowns using power supply health monitoring and event notifications, and new dual server-grade Intel Ethernet. The motherboard features 91% power efficiency, enhanced heat removal, plus high speed storage and data transfers. The P9X79-E WS has been designed to support powerful and flexible graphics configurations as required by professional users in sectors such as graphic and industrial design, research, and scientific modeling. Customers can opt for 4-way NVIDIA GeForce SLI or AMD CrossFireX multi-GPU setups, install seven single-slot graphics cards, or choose up to four double-deck (2-slot) cards. The high expandability of the P9X79-E WS makes it easy for customers to use PCI Express-based video capture, RAID, and SSD storage components. ASUS Dr. Power offers effortless power supply health monitoring Workstations typically pair with large power supplies and place great importance on stability for continuous productivity. ASUS Dr. Power offers real time power supply and delivery status detection, with instant alerts to notify users whether issues such as insufficient or unstable power arise. The utility pre-empts power failures with pop-up notices that allow customers to avoid sudden shutdowns and work loss by saving data before power-outs occur, all without having to open the computer case. Additionally, an onboard LED shows codes for power-related issues in the event the system fails to boot, reducing the time it takes to resolve technical difficulties. Better networking with new dual server-grade Intel Ethernet The P9X79-E WS has twin Intel Ethernet ports managed by the Intel i210 controller. This design doubles available bandwidth while lowering latency and packet loss rates. Customers gain faster, more stable, and more responsive networking, plus overall improved system performance as hardware Ethernet carries out online-related tasks independent of the CPU to free up compute resources. Up to 91% power efficiency and improved heat removal The P9X79-E WS offers a durable ten-layer PCB with 100% ultra-long life solid state capacitors. It also uses exclusive ASUS DIGI+ VRM digital voltage controls for the CPU and DRAM, with the EPU chip regulating power consumption to deliver up to 91% power efficiency in the 30%-80% CPU load range. The P9X79-E WS uses a fan-less cooling design with copper heatpipes to extend hardware longevity, improve stability, and ensure 0dB quiet operation. High speed storage and data transfers ASUS SSD Caching II on the P9X79-E WS delivers faster storage and system operation. With its support for multiple SSDs, different setups can be used, for example three SSDs with one hard drive or two SSDs with two hard drives. For faster data transfers, four USB 3.0 ports work at up to ten times the speed of USB 2.0. The P9X79-E WS features six SATA 6Gbit/s ports and two front panel eSATA ports.
gotta love those heatsinks. too bad Asus name has been tarnished with bad aftersales now. they still make the best looking motherboards.
The heat sink sort of looks out of place. Probably expecting it to be blue. The reports here of ASUS RMA nightmares when dealing directly with them, although I do believe the people who are having the bad service are primarily US residents..
its not just the US. Even in india most have shied away from buying ASUS boards due to their aftersales woes. Even i went off from ASUS to ASRock.
Nice....:shadedshu I have never have never dealt with ASUS directly since I was able to do get everything sorted through the seller.
Same here, we just bring the defective part to the reseller and we get a replacement, simple and fast. Ontopic, would love to see a RoG board that could step up against the Extreme11
I'm trying to figure out what the main differences are between this and the existing P9X79 WS, which I own (but am selling). The only thing I can pick out is the Ethernet PHY is different and the same for both NICs vs the old model which used two different PHYs, one of which wouldn't work in Windows Server OSes without hacking the driver .inf.
I have never had an ASUS motherboard die on me, and I have had a lot now. I've had DFI boards die on me, Gigabyte boards die on me.... But never ASUS.. Maybe I'm just lucky? But ASUS do make very nice quality boards. EVGA also make very high quality boards, never had one die on me.

-- while later today President Obama expects to dominate chuck they got to be the next Defense Secretary the confirmation of hagel.
Shaping up to be up they'll quite a fight in congress we have Mike Baker with us now former CIA.
-- operations officer president of the firm diligence LLC global intelligence security firm.
Always good to have you Mike and the other announced that it it will be that John Brennan and they president's current.
Our top advisor on counterterrorism be nominated to run the the CIA -- -- your CIA guy for years we know about Brennan.
Well you know it's it's interesting because it's all -- all the time right now -- nobody's talking about the other.
Nomination and -- and that's because it's it's as close as you get in Washington DC to wait a safe bet.
John Brennan had a lot of experience with in the CIA and then around the Intel community and he's.
-- -- the very good relationship with Obama and the White House over the past few years so.
And you know and a sense.
They're choosing the the safe.
Road because I think they understand they're in for a bit of a battle papal.
Right and even this if they also said that not a nominated Brennan in the past but then I guess the enhanced interrogation techniques came up and all this -- wanna go through it.
But apparently now they're OK going through it do you think that'll be that can hold it up smaller.
Well I you know I don't think sought an aggregate it in the sense it's a passage of time.
I think he probably would have gotten the nod before but I think they just assessment was a little bit too close.
In terms of the time now you know you've had this bizarre.
-- story there's been brought up as a result of the release of that film zero dark thirty so that enhanced interrogations is kind of resurfaced.
Again but it's a bit of an inane.
Issue that did the senators say in the Intel community don't -- don't seem to understand that this is a Hollywood film.
You know -- what you think of the -- by actually sought over the weekend.
Zero dark thirty did you see it and if so what did you think about it going to be and have -- I don't.
It's it's good entertainment I mean Hollywood does what Hollywood does you know -- -- enhance realities -- May.
You know they make some choices in terms of writing a script -- -- still don't lots of people down into one character and and so they've got a strong lead.
But you I was it's it's good entertainment that the -- part of -- -- that again is that the senators.
Seemed to be mistaking entertainment for reality and -- the going after the CIA yet again to say you know.
What this film is depicting -- that doesn't match our perception because they think report.
A 100% accurate this show people in your business do a lot of important hard work and spent a long time doing and his son in some cases as -- was in the in the it absolutely is quick thought on take advantage as you said that's the more controversial appointment that nor announcement that we're gonna get today what do you make it -- Yeah -- this is the one that's gonna cause -- some trouble I think ultimately he's going to be.
Is going to be put through but it's its strange for me it's an odd choice because in part.
You know running the Department of Defense is nothing if not -- a massive exercise in in managing a bureaucracy.
And as far as I can tell and maybe I'm I'm wrong here -- I don't I don't see any management experience in -- background.
You know the statement -- made in the past about Israel and Iran those will come back and and will be a matter questioning.
During the course of the nominating process but I I ultimately I think he's going to get there which -- strange that they would choose someone who.
That I -- believe they understand it's going to be a battle and they got other battles to fight at a far more important.
And I think they probably have other candidates they could have chosen who would -- a better fit for the deal dates if he's able to run now they're able to get through here.
Alright Michael is -- to talk to Mike Baker with us today forever secret -- -- he's an undisclosed location it looks like that but thanks for coming on my back.

Ceylon Sonata
Black tea from Sri Lanka. In colonial times, this island-nation was known as Ceylon. This name is still used to describe all teas grown here. Ceylon tea is bright and lively, with a wonderfully delicate flavor. The 'Ceylon Sonata' is the finest grade tea from the renowned Kenilworth estate, located in Sri Lanka's Kandy region. The perfect afternoon tea.

There is an almost haunting beauty to the barren fields of snow and ice that stretch for miles across the arctic, but scientists say the picture there is changing.
The landscape is slowly, but steadily, melting away.
"If we are not already there, we are certainly on the verge of seeing a new arctic," said Martin Jeffries, co-editor of Arctic Report Card and program officer at Office of Naval Research.
In an on-line Web conference on Wednesday, NOAA released its latest data on arctic conditions.
The data shows a continuing increase in water temperatures and all-time record lows in the amount of snow and ice in the region.
"We can expect to see continued widespread and sustained change, with new record highs and new record lows, depending on the variable you are looking at throughout the arctic system," said Jeffries.
Ninety-seven-percent of the ice sheet governing Greenland thawed this July, which is another record.
That area is losing ice five-times faster than it was in the early 90s.
"We know that melting ice in Greenland can contribute to sea level rise around the world," said Jane Lubchenco, U.S. Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans & Atmosphere.
In the last two decades, those levels have grown by 20 percent.
It's a trend that scientists say long-term could be devastating.
"Most of the people around the world live in coastal areas. It's where most of your major cities are because that's where ports are and they are at sea level so even small changes in sea level rise can displace millions of people," said NASA Cryosphere Program scientist, Thomas Wagner.
More than half of the U.S. population lives within 50 miles of the coast.

Print Journalism
Many of his friends and professors would refer to David Gordon, a senior print journalism major, as a jack-of-all-trades. David is the entertainment editor of the Hofstra Chronicle, an editor of NassauNewsLive.com and an active member of both the Spectrum Players and Masquerade Musical Theater Company – both drama organizations on campus.
Why do you think your peers suggested you for a student profile?
Most people I know in the journalism department limit themselves to just that field, just those classes. I love the history of theater just as much as I love writing so I critique plays in New York and the University's drama department for the Chronicle. Though I am not a drama major I would consider myself to be just as much a member of the drama department as I am the journalism department. I've edited the Chronicle, edited NassauNewsLive.com, peer taught for an online journalism class, and directed a full-length one act play as part of the drama department's directing seminar.
Why Hofstra?
We have a long family history with Hofstra. My mother worked for Alumni Affairs for a long time, my Uncle, now the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Walt Disney Internet Group, received his MBA at Hofstra and my father's cousin was a Fine Arts Professor with New College.
Hofstra and the School of Communication had everything I wanted in a major. The faculty has strong, professional experience in their fields; I have taken two classes with editors of Newsday, the publisher of a group of community newspapers, and a former music critic. I couldn't ask for anything more!
How has the School of Communication and Hofstra helped you grow throughout your time here?
I really came into my own this year with the Presidential Debate on October 15, 2008. I had no idea I would get to work on the debate coverage in the capacity that I did. I served as editor for NassaNews.org fact-checking and information department while the debate was in process. I had a team of 10-12 people working for me and whenever the two candidates would discuss a topic we would jump in and search or all the information that they were referring to and then instant message to our live blogging team. It was a huge turning point for me at the University. I gained significant leadership skills working on the coverage. In the span of a few months, thanks to the University, I was able to hear George Stephanopoulos, Ari Fleisher, Dee Dee Myers, and Anderson Cooper. It was a tremendous opportunity that I never figured I would be able to experience in a million years.
What is your edge?
I am, above all, a perfectionist. Obsessively. I won't stop until everything is perfectly done. That serves an editor, such as myself, well.
What is the thing you will miss most when you are no longer a student at Hofstra?
Hard to say – the professors who I go to for five minute questions that turn into hour long discussions, the friends I've made, the stability of having classes to wake up to? But really, you don't know what you've got until it's gone.

Power Windows
I did a search but cannot find a discussion on fitting modern power windows to a Hudson, particularly a 53 hornet sedan. Of course I'm looking to do the least mod necessary for install. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Try the Hudson street rod forum. That's where they talk about modifying Hudsons .
Buy a Rod and Custom, or Street Rodder magazine at the supermarket- lots of outfits sell a "do it yourself" universal power window kit, that you can use to put power windows on most anything.
Installing Power Windows is pretty easy regarless if stock Hudson or St Rodded... I havent installed in a '53 but have in '37's and '47's Hudson's using different companies Kits but their all the same principle. Buy a good Universal Kit & most come with lighted switches same as modern cars where driver side controls both sides.
Remove your window and the bottom Channel. The new Kit Channel will clamp to your window bottom.
The wiring is all plug & play type connections. (cant mix wiring up). Usually the motor sits down in a corner and needs clamped. The lift mechanism is usually centered and requires an 1/8" X 1" strap across door from front to back to clamp lift.
Will need to drill hole in door to enable wire harness to enter and use templates provided to cut panel for switch fuse to Ign switch and Grd..
If you have good window crank mechanism, JC Whitney offers a Kit to remove your factory handles then install a gear box at the crank that works well. Kit comes with Plugs for the Crank Hole than no need to make the center lift Bracket.. Ive installed both Types bur prefer the center lift.
Thank you very much. I should explain that the reason I'm looking to do this is that my son is intending to use the Hudson as a limo for weddings and anniversaries, etc, and I figure clients in wedding gowns would like power windows to open them and say hi to friends. I plan to use crank handle switches to activate it so original cranks can be used. I want this Hudson to be as original as possible, but with a few modern conveniences and safety items. Thank you all for the advice and comments.
I have two pair of these that i'd let go of.
They have the motor kits too. -
Nice info guys, but is any power window kit easier to install than another, or all easy?
All Kits pretty easy using the same principle lifting glass up from center. Electric - Life probably top of Line... However, the very simplist install would be the 'gearbox type' replacing your original crank handles. -
Gotcha thanks.

Solicitation within the City of Lake Oswego requires a business license. For relatively brief door-to-door activities, a temporary license may be most suited to a vendor's needs. These cost $25 for one week only, $50 for two weeks. Also, door-to-door activities require a current picture of the salesperson(s) on file.
Both "for-profit" and "non-profit" solicitation require licensing. "For-profit" soliciting might include sale of magazine subscriptions, household items, or services of some kind, while "non-profit" solicitation might involve organizations such as the American Cancer Society or Green Peace seeking donations.
Also, whether it be one person or a group of twelve, each individual solicitor is required to carry a copy of the business license while conducting door-to-door solicitation. Anyone who conducts door-to-door solicitation within city limits must adhere to Ordinances 34.16.915 and 34.16.920. These address the rights of residents and business owners by restricting the hours of solicitation (between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. daylight savings time, and only to 8 p.m. during standard time); and allows residents and businesses to prohibit solicitation through the posting of a sign that conforms to the requirements of LOC 34.16.945. LOC 34.16.945 states how the sign must read, its size, and where is should be displayed.
No Solicitation Signs - Available at the Chamber of Commerce and City Hall
"No Solicitation" signs may be purchased from the Lake Oswego Chamber of Commerce for a cost of $5.00. The Chamber is located at 459 3rd Street and the phone number is 503-636-3634. For your convenience, a supply of these signs is also maintained at City Hall, 1st floor - Finance counter, at the same cost. The sign shown in the picture is 6.5" x 8.5".

I have mentioned this quite some time ago but I will try again. Does anyone in this whole big wide world have a dog that licks the air? I know this sounds crazy for those of you who would have no idea what this is like. I sure would like to hear from anyone that knows what I'm talking about. When I asked about it before someone suggested having her teeth cleaned, but that is done regularly so that's not the problem. I did talk to several vets about it and neither had ever heard of such a thing, although I'm guessing the one is checking on it right now.
This little sweetie will sit on the paved driveway in the middle of winter and just lick the air. It's almost like she's in a trance because when I call her to come in the house she doesn't even respond. She is a Bichon,10 years old and has been doing this for about 5 years. I also have her sister, a litter mate and she doesn't do anything like this. These dogs have their regular checkups, shots, etc. so they are not abused or ignored in any way, just loved to death. LOL. I really would like to know if anyone has a clue or of someone that has a dog that does the same. I'm sure my vet would appreciate any thoughts on the matter also. I thank you very much for any help you can give me. BT |

Sounds like something is stuck to the roof of her mouth --- like a small bone or maybe peanut butter? |
The link below may have some answers. I'd ask the vet about using either pepcid or some carafate as a test to see if she has GERD. |
Here is a link that might be useful: dog licking
My friends dog started doing this. Turned out she needed a teeth cleaning and her front teeth were a bit loose.... |
Forgot to add that it could also be a habit that has developed out of boredom/lack of exercise or anxiety. As you've seen, such habits can become so bad that the animal become 'transfixed'. I'd rule out physical problems first, then I'd start working with diverting her attention with exercise and play the minute you see her start licking. |
- Posted by brownthumbia (My Page) on Tue, May 11, 10 at 13:39
Thanks so much for your replies. I'm sure she is in good shape as she just had surgery for a stone in her bladder plus a very small hernia so she has had a very thorough physical. However because she has been doing this for 5 years I'm sure it's not something stuck in her mouth. I confess ignorance on what GERD is. Guess I never heard about that before. One thing I did neglect to do was to mention this problem to my vet until now. I've watched her do this for 5 years and I guess I got so used to seeing it I never mentioned it to him. Actually he phoned last night just to check on how her recovery from surgery was going. I told him she was doing super well except for this air licking. He questioned me on it but had no answer for it. I did read the 'dog licking' suggested by annz and I am going to forward it to my vet. And thank you for sharing it. Any more info that anyone else might have will be appreciated. Again, thanks in advanace. BT |

seems like I've heard that it may be a sign of a mineral deficiency or some such. You might ask your vet. |
This is called fly catchers syndrome. it 's cause and effect is different per breed. Try and get this behavior on video and ask your vet to do some research on it to see if a neurologist is in order. |
- Posted by brownthumbia (My Page) on Tue, May 11, 10 at 20:58
Oh, my, I appreciate so much all the advice I'm getting. Cindy, actually the vet and I discussed this when he phoned me. He has ruled out fly catchers symdrome because as I described it to him the dog is not 'snapping' per se. she just licks. Another thing she does that I didn't mention, my sofa is right in front of the living room window. She sits on the back of the sofa so she can see outside and, guess what, she licks the window!!! I'm beginning to think it is something mental with her although I can't imagine what it could be. If she would have been mistreated at sometime I could accept that but she has lived only with me and I promise the world she has never been abused in any shape or form. Yeah, she curls up with me on my bed during the night. Loves to have a massage. etc., etc. again, thanks to all and we will consider any and all ideas anyone will have so don't hesitate to give your opinion. I am going shopping tomorrow and I may pick up some dog vitamins/minerals in case it is a deficiency of some sort. I'm grabbing at straws. BT |
The first thing I thought of when I read that she seems to be in a trance, was that it was some sort of seizure. Then I googled fly catcher's syndrome after reading cindyxeus's post and that's a seizure disorder. |

Deb, I guess I visualize them falling over and maybe losing consciousness during a seizure. I've never had any experience with it but my sister had a dog that had seizures and she would fall over and seemed to me 'out of it'. My dog just sits and licks. I just may have a one in two million dog. tyvm for your response. Wish I knew how to take a picture and send it. Maybe my granddaughters can do that so you know what I'm talking about. BT |
Brownthumbia I know exactly what you are talking about. I have a twelve year old Boston Terrier that does the same thing. She started doing it when she was about a year old. She doesn't do it often but when she does she seems to be in a trance. I have mentioned it in the past to friends with dogs but they just look at me like I am crazy. Marcia |

Oops, sorry for the double post. I forgot I had sent it. and Deb, believe me, I know you are not crazy. You gotta see it to believe it!! Anyhow I'm glad someone understands and knows what I'm talking about. Thanks for sharing your experience. Only thing is, my dog doesn't just do it once in awhile--she does it every day and several times a day. BT |
Fly catching doesn't always mean snapping at, it can include just licking..and like I said in my previous post these behaviors tend to have different reasons behind the syndrome per breed. For example this behavior will usually be the cause of one thing in a King Charles Spaniel, but may be the manifestation of something else in a Cocker Spaniel or your breed. Fluid in the eyes causing vitreous floaters is one reason ( this may explain your dog lickig the window) different metabolic disorders is another, fluid on the spine, etc. and just so you know seizures are not always part of this, it can be but it is a behavior due to something else not a disease in itself. below is a link that you may find useful, it also has a video to watch if this were my dog I'd ask for a referal to a neurologist. Specialists know what to look for and won't be so apt to just try something but rather look for direct causes first. |
Here is a link that might be useful: dog flybiting/catching
There are different types of seizures in both humans and animals. The grand mal type is what you're describing and what most people think of when they hear the word "seizure". There are other types that are more subtle and some that pass almost unnoticed by observers where the person or dog just stares into space momentarily and loses awareness. One of my sisters suffers from three different types, and one type causes her to involuntarily jerk her arms and be disoriented for a few seconds. Here's a link that describes some types in dogs: |
Here is a link that might be useful: Canine epilepsy
I know what you are talking about.One of my bassets use to do this some.She liked to lick when we first got her and then she would just lick at the air.It always seemed like OCD with her.She did quite after awhile and I've not seen her do it in years.I also belive it could be GERD related to... |
My husky did that just before a seizure. To me, without seeing what is going on, it sounds like a focal seizure. Especially since she isn't responsive during these episodes- sounds like it is some sort of neurologic episode. Epilepsy is a diagnosis of exclusion. You need to exclude all other causes of seizure (focal or generalized) and you end up with epilepsy. All seizures are caused by lesions in the forebrain. The lesion can be infectious, inflammatory, metabolic, or neoplastic in nature. Metabolic problems are generally related to liver problems, which are easy to rule out with a bile acids test or blood ammonia level. The rest are harder to diagnose but being that it's been going on for a long time I'd suspect not an infection (would have either gotten over it or progressed by now), nor neoplasia (tumors tend to grow and start to cause more neurologic signs), or inflammatory (again, these tend to progress without treatment). |
bear with me one more time.. I'm sending you some more info on floaters because A. you said it happens when he's outside and near the window. If this was gerd or Seizures it would be happening all places Anyway read this and than make sure you go to the video link at the bottom this is about people but I think you may be able to relate this to your dog. Floaters appear to be wormy like, threads jetting back and forth of ones vision and are generally more noticeable to patients in bright lighting conditions such as outdoor activity or brightly illuminated computer screens, binoculars, or microscopes.( with dogs think windows and car windshields) This is because the bright illumination increases the contrast between the darkness of the floater and the surrounding light, making the floaters more apparent. Floaters generally jiggle or move when the eye moves. This is because the vitreous gel is a dynamic structure and compresses slightly with eye movements. Thus, when the patient looks to the right for example, the floater may first dart to the right and then re-center as the vitreous gel returns to its normal resting position. |
Here is a link that might be useful: video of floaters
Cindy, I would never have thought of floaters but the fact the dog gets in a trance-like state could be because she's learned how to focus in order to see the floaters. I have them now in my right eye and it's so annoying! It's the worst I've ever had and causes the right lense on my eye glasses to appear smudged.....then it briefly clears! Of course, it's worse when I'm at the computer. |
I hear ya Annz. My daughter worked for an opthmolgist for several years so we all got a mini course here in eye issues. Also I actually had a gal on one of my dog lists a few years back that was a tech for an veterinary opthamologist and floaters came up often as reason behind certain behaviors which rang a bell with me and this particular poster's dog. |

Gosh, thanks to everyone of you for your opinions and ideas on what my dog is doing. Boy, do I sure know about floaters. I've got enough of them myself but never thought of a dog having them. I'm going to talk to the vet again and give him all of your ideas and maybe one of his medical books will steer him in the right direction. Knowing him, he will also appreciate any and all of your ideas. He is s super vet but I guess he can't know every single thing there is to know. Again, thanks, you've at least given us some place to start. |

Hi! I was wondering if you or your vet has come to a conclusion on why your dog licks the air? I have a cocker spaniel who does the same thing. I never thought to talk to a vet about it, if you have any info it would be great! Thanks! |
- Posted by brownthumbia (My Page) on Wed, Nov 28, 12 at 9:22
sallybally, I am sorry I didn't get back to you---computer has been on the sick list. As far as my dog is concerned, it may be, as mentioned before, floaters but I can't say for sure. I almost think it's become a bad habit for her---sorta like humans biting their nails, smoking, pulling their hair, etc. The one thing I appreciate, as perturbed as I get watching her do this, she is in fantastic health otherwise. She is 13 years old, getting slower going upstairs, etc. so I guess I will watch her lick whatever, love her to pieces...and miss it terribly when she's gone. |
I have a chihuahua and she sometimes reminds me of a snake. She starts licking air for twenty minutes at a time. Should I take her to the vet. She is two years old and is groomed on schedule and the groomer takes care of her anal glands and ears. She chews little rawhide sticks for her teeth. I don't know why she licks. Any ideas. |

My Toby licks air when I scratch a particular place on his bum! |
Dogs like many other animals have a sensory receptor. Some call it Jacobson's sensory. It allows the animal to smell certain things kind of like a snake does when he sticks out his tongue and licks the air. In a dog, it may be they are smelling pheromones of an animal that is ready to mate. |

Intrigued by the opportunity to get close to a real Amur tiger? Staring into the eyes of any tiger is an amazing experience, so try to imagine what it will be like when you have a close up encounter with the magnificent Amur tiger this summer, enabling you to get closer to the Zoo's tigers than ever before, including looking into their piercing yellow eyes. At the new Tiger Forest presented by Citizens Energy Group exhibit, you will be separated by no more than a thin plate of glass – so close you can see their four-inch long, razor-sharp claws and count their whiskers! Here's how you can meet the tigers: Welcome to the Zoo Admission Prices Operating Hours Directions Hints for a Great Zoo Visit Amenities/Accommodations More Info About the Zoo
If you like you can purchase your tickets online now. Don't forget to see the other new exhibits at the Indianapolis Zoo this year: OMG! Orchids at White River Gardens – They're odd, magical and just plain gorgeous. Bats – Seriously, these guys may be a little creepy, but they are valuable contributers to a healthy environment. Warthogs & Porcupines – Beastly and beautiful all at the same time, these denizens of the African plains will charm you.

Are applications contacting home? See what programs are using the internet without your knowledge
May 9, 2011 41 Email article | Print articleWhat's that program you have running that's accessing the internet? You don't know? Find out using a simple command prompt command. It's important to know what your programs are doing at any one time. You should have full control over what does and doesn't use your connection, whether you're at home or running on an O2 UK 3G dongle. This is a simple and effective process that allows for the monitoring of your system. Just follow the instructions and you'll remain well-informed.
Step One: Windows XP
Open up the Run box by pressing the Windows key and R at the same time.
Put in CMD and press OK. The command prompt window will open up:
Step One: Windows Vista/Windows 7
Open the Start menu () and type in CMD:
Right click on it and select Run as Administrator:
Step Two
In your open Command Prompt window, enter the following:
netstat -b 5 > activity.txt
and hit enter. (Note: to paste something into Command Prompt, you'll need to right click and click paste.)
If you forgot to run the prompt as an administrator (like I did in the screenshots above), just redo step one You can tell when it's running as administrator because instead of saying C:\Users\Username it says C:\Windows\system32.
If you've pasted the code right, a blinking cursor will… blink.
After a few minutes, press Ctrl+C. That'll stop the command.
Now type in activity.txt to open the log:
When you press Enter, your default text editor-probably Notepad-will open:
Now, scroll through the lists. You'll see that it's mostly your browser-but some times, there are programs like Google Talk's webcam program installed that call home even when you aren't using them.
Now that you've found any and all culprits that are programs accessing the internet (with and without your knowledge), you can either close them from the Task Manager or even uninstall them.
I've made a short (1 minute) video on doing this.
UPDATE 2: Clarified the Windows XP instructions.

I am a bit tied up at the moment.
Someone running one of my Data Base programs, has switched to Windows 7 (New PC), and is trying to use that instead of a server. So I am experimenting, and debugging.I took time out, to have a quick check of the NirSoft web site, in case he had a GUI program for monitoring the internet.
My browse of his site did not appear to have exactly what we want.
However I came across this web page, where someone was seeking a program (see who is calling home).
The author mentions use of a NirSoft program, and another program.
Also there are 53 comments, that I have not read yet.
Perhaps someone may care to study the page in more detail, and also check if one of the 53 comments, points us to something simple, and effective.Rob
26Some listed items are as mysterious as the hundreds of CLSID/892598319…. entries that appear in registry cleaners. Without knowledge/research/time/courage, it could be more dangerous to tinker with it than leaving the listed items intact. Will be so good if people could write programs that not only report these things, but also, at least, point you in the right direction to find out what the entries mean. Without that, it's too daunting for John Does like me. Thank you to those who added some insight with their comments!
27Click on Zum download and next.Download will have program and license.Instal program .After that,click right on license and make to open only with Jv 16(exe) who is install in Program files….Next open the program and go to:Help>Licence information>Install new license and select file:license.Next close and close the program.Open again and will be registered.If you don't know how to download go to:Techno360.
29I have been through the 53 comments on that link I posted. Not much Joy there.
What I would like (and perhaps Josh ?), is a nice simple program, which monitors your outgoing Internet traffic, and pops up, when there is out going traffic.
And so that we are not overwhelmed with a plethora of detail, there be two options -
- Hide all safe traffic (Stuff the Developer knows is usual)
- When some traffic appears, it can be told – 'Never show that one again'Surely, someone has developed that ?
31@RobCr: This may not be what you want, and unfortunately, it's not free, but I use BWMeter http://www.desksoft.com/BWMeter.htm
It has a very simple firewall that asks for permission when something wants internet access, and doesn't bug you about again, unless you remove that program from the Forbid/Allow lists.32Don't forget the shortcut to start CMD as Admin
Ctrl+Shift+Enter36Thank you Locutus for this information !
Now I will be able to know if "ET wants to phone home" ! :-)37One wonders if #19 uses postcards for all his communication. Perhaps the reason to use security is the same reason that they invented envelopes.

Nature meets tech
With a byline of "purity, wisdom and performance," this is no ordinary line of haircare. Naturaltech has loftier ideals. It uses essential oils and is designed to contribute towards a psychological sense of well-being, not just a pretty reflection in the mirror.
That's a big ask from your shampoo, you might think. But the new haircare range Naturaltech does just what it says on the tin; it combines the best of nature and tecnology. it's responded to consumer demands of botanically-based haircare with efficacy to create a heavily-researched line of phytoceuticals - active biological compounds - that works, and doesn't contain suphates and parabens.
The system has seven groups aimed at treating different hair concerns: ENERGIZING for scalp and alopecia problems, NOURISHING for dry and brittle damaged hair, PURIFYING antiseptic and anti-inflammatory products for dandruff and irritation, REBALANCING for excess sebum, DETOXIFYING for hair stressed by environmental factors, CALMING for sensitive scalps, and WELLBEING for all hair types.
Below: The Wintergarden at Auckland Museum's Domain was a beautiful and aptly chosen venue for the launch, filled with plants.
Best drinks of the year to date; lab beakers with natural juices = natural + tech.
Below: Elise and Lucy check out the range.
Below: Erica Kent
Calming Shampoo brings soothing relief to poeple with sensitised scalp. It is to be used with Calming Superactive, a concentrated treatment that is massaged in and not rinsed out.
I'll be trying out Well-being shampoo and conditioner which is hydrating for all kinds of hair.
Below: The Well-being family of Naturaltech contains clove, nutmeg and sandalwood essential oils for soothing, stimulating and anti-inflammatory haircare.
Detoxifying contains cardamom, coriander and mint essential oils.
Detoxifying Mud.
Purifying contains lavender, myrrh and sage essential oils.
Rebalancing contains chamomile, cedarwood and Japanese green tea essential oils.
Below: The Denizen magazine team at the Naturaltech launch.
We have to give special mention to the stunning artwork featuring bespoke illustrations created in-house by the Naturaltech creative director. We loved her whimsical illustrations that captured each formula family perfectly and were so much more original than yet another pretty face on an ad, or a plain black and white label on a bottle.
Naturaltech is available in selected salons for retail use at home as well as treatments performed by your stylist in-salon. Retail prices are $38 each for shampoos and conditioners, $60 for Calming Superactive, $88 for Energizing Lotion, $50 for Energizing Gel, $49 for Enzyme infusion, and $70 for Well-being Massage oil.

Visit our new farm website for information and dates for all of our Sustainability Workshops!
A Partnership between PASA's Good Food Neighborhood Program and Dickinson College Farm.
Due to an enthusiastic response to the workshop series, we will be requiring RSVP's for ALL workshops and we will open registration for each workshop immediately following the preceding workshop. This will ensure that all gardeners have a fair chance to sign up for future workshops!
Dickinson College Media January 4, 2012
The Dickinson College Farm is one of four Pennsylvania locations hosting the workshops through PASA's Sustainability Schools program, which centers on homesteading, homemaking and backyard conservation workshops for consumers interested in living more sustainably. The other locations are Greener Partners (Collegeville, PA), the Spring Creek Homesteading Fund (State College, PA), and The Home Grown Institute (Philadelphia, PA).
"We are excited for this partnership and look forward to empowering and inspiring others to grow food and help build a foundation for community-based education," says Jenn Halpin, Dickinson College Farm director. "Farm-based educational programs provide hands-on learning and a means to exchange information that will benefit gardeners and food lovers alike," she says.
Each Sustainability Series Workshop will start at 2:00pm at the Dickinson College Farm, located at 553 Park Drive, Boiling Springs, PA 17007. Held on the last Saturday of each month, the two-hour workshops offer gardeners of all skill levels tips and strategies to maximize production and enjoyment from home and community gardening.
Please be sure to dress for the weather! Workshops will be held outdoors and in rustic indoor facilities.

Interview with Percy Sledge [Listen 25:01 min] – "When a man loves a woman" or (Why did you leave me baby?)
Podcast: Play in new window | Download
S01 Ep10 -(Percy Sledge) Why did you leave me baby
Interview Date: November 11, 2011 @11am EDT
Special Guest: Percy Sledge – this R&B Superstar was one of the key figures of what was to be later classified as "the 60's Deep Southern Soul". Signed to Atlantic Records in 1966, Percy Sledge's very first recording for the label turned out to be one of the labels biggest hits. Mr.Sledges beautifully gut wrenching song "When a man loves a Woman" is one of the most loved and referenced songs of all time. In the interview, Percy Sledge and I talk about how he got started, what the soul scene was like back in the day, some of the key figures in his career and even the recording of "When a man loves a woman."
Stax/Volt Records - Buying the best Soul Around!
What better way to start off this week article than talk about Atlantics old business partner Stax/Volt Records; one of the best 60's soul/R&B labels in the world. Created by brother and sister duo Jim Stewart and Estelle Axton*; the company was to rival Motown

U.S. Safe Manufacturer Profits With High-Tech Factory South Of The Border
Nov. 29--TIJUANA --For California companies, Mexico can be an especially attractive bet, analysts say. The ability to order in small batches means that designs can be changed quickly and production can be revved up and slowed down in a matter of days instead of months.
That can be invaluable during the holidays, as San Bernardino-based Cannon Safe learned.
On Black Friday in 2008, the safe manufacturing company received a panicked call from a major retailer that had drastically slimmed...

This morning, Secretary of State John Kerry arrived at NATO to take his seat for the first time at the North Atlantic Council, the governing body of NATO, as ministers of the 28 Allies converged to discuss some of the world's most sensitive questions. Secretary Kerry strode past the cameras and photographers, as journalists pleaded with him in French to make a comment. "Apres, après," Kerry said, "afterwards."
The atmosphere inside the meeting room was somber, as developments in Syria and Korea were on the morning agenda. Just before the meeting began, NATO Secretary-General Rasmussen told the journalists outside, "We can see that the situation in Syria is getting worse. We cannot ignore the risks of a regional spill-over with possible implications for Allied security. NATO has come to the support of Turkey with the rapid deployment of Patriot missiles, but we must continue to remain vigilant." The NATO meeting was a unique opportunity for the Foreign Ministers of Europe and North America to share information and ideas on the crisis in Syria.
The second meeting of the day was the NATO-Russia Council, attended by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. The Council was briefed on the recent series of meetings between high-level U.S. and Russian diplomats in Moscow, and possibilities for an intensified NATO-Russia dialogue that could follow from that. Afterwards, Secretary Kerry took the opportunity to meet individually with Minister Lavrov, with whom he has already met several times in recent weeks, to continue the search for common ground.
Secretary Kerry's schedule inside the NATO HQ building was, as always, choreographed to use every minute. Between other meetings he sat down with the Greek Foreign Minister, and signed an agreement on the control of nuclear materials with the foreign minister of Lithuania.
Late in the afternoon, Secretary Kerry gave his first press conference in NATO's Luns Theater. He began by calling Europe "America's partner of first resort," and then talked about how NATO would transform its mission in Afghanistan from combat to training by the end of 2014. "Afghanistan will not again, ever, become a haven for terrorists," Kerry declared.
Turning to the question of Syria, Kerry said that there was no specific role for NATO in Syria right now, but that all the Allies agreed that "the mass murder taking place outside of Damascus was unacceptable," and there had to be a political solution. "The U.S. will continue supporting the opposition coalition," he said, with the goal of achieving "a non-sectarian democracy that respects all human rights." After answering questions, the Secretary apologetically excused himself and moved to the next meeting with the NATO Allies and partners working together in Afghanistan.
In his first day inside the NATO headquarters, the Secretary showed that he is very much at home in the Alliance. Secretary Kerry's day won't end until late this evening, and tomorrow his schedule is booked with meetings with Afghan President Karzai and the leaders of Pakistan. Stay tuned to DipNote and @USNATO and @USAmbNATO on Twitter for more from his visit.

It had been a long time since I was around a presidential campaign when I picked this one up in Iowa a little more than a year ago. The first story that hit me was the money. It still seems to me that the money is the only story in this whole campaign. It has deformed the process almost to unrecognizability. It has created a new normal that seems insulated on all sides from the people who are supposed to matter the most. If the president manages to hang on, it will be seen as a triumph of participatory democracy over legalized bribery, and we will all be encouraged to feel very good about ourselves because things turned out that way. But, seriously, were it not for the new political universe created by the Big Bang of the Citizens United decision, and were it not for the swiftly established metric that he who has the most money wins, the candidacy of Willard Romney would be an almost impossible burlesque. Four years after the titans of the financial-services industry nearly ate the entire world, the Republicans nominate a plutocratic maladroit who can barely wrestle a coherent sentence to a draw — "We start a new tomorrow tomorrow," was yesterday's gem — and who is entirely a creature of the very industry that had caused the misery in the first place. It is exactly the same as if the Republicans in 1932 had replaced Herbert Hoover at the top of their ticket with Andrew Mellon.

Teen Lian in model event hope
7:30am Thursday 1st March 2012 in News
A MALVERN teenager could find herself in the spotlight of an international beauty pageant after catching the eye while working at a fashion event.
Lian Young, aged 17, of Monksfield Lane, was working for a make-up company during the Clothes Show at Birmingham's NEC in December when she was spotted by reigning Miss Intercontinental England Stephanie Hodgson.
"I was on a break and she picked me out from the passing crowd and started asking me a bit about myself." said the former RGS Worcester student, who is studying for a BTEC in theatrical and media make-up.
Now Lian is looking forward to representing Malvern in the UK finals in Manchester, where a panel of judges will choose winners from England, Scotland and Wales to represent their countries on the global stage.
"Although I wouldn't mind a career in modelling it is not really something I had ever thought about," she said. "I'm not really bothered about winning, I just think it will be a really fun and interesting experience to be a part of."

Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving this year. Hope you have a wonderful day!
HI Pete, Thanks for being my newest buddy
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching 2,500 consecutive days! Really awesome! Wow, another milestone has arrived! : ) For most GBs (8M plus) they don't seem to have the dedication or the persistence it takes to come back and post gas prices each day for other GBs! Or they just run out of gas! :( Hang onto your speed lines, it only takes one day to lose them! I'm sure you know! But, even clicking on news article links, which are the easiest points here on GasBuddy, when you can't or didn't post gas prices before midnight will save your consecutive days! : ) WARNING! Every day GBs lose their consecutive days, many with big numbers, the #1 reason, "oops, I just forgot!" :( If you ever lose your consecutive days; that is NO FAULT of your own, please contact the mods! Keep posting each day to save your consecutive days! Keep going like a PRO Los Angeles GasBuddy! Have a nice week! Thanks buddy! Ron
Congratulations on 2500 consecutive days posting, very good.YB. Shep

id-Zenimax discussions started a year ago
Zenimax first started talking to id about the possibility of buying the firm about a year ago, ZeniMax CEO Robert Altman has told Joystiq.
"I had my first meeting with Todd Hollenshead at E3 a year ago," he said.
"We had a general discussion about how our two companies might explore matters of mutual interest and the conversations then took place over the ensuing months.
"So it's been almost a year, on and off, that we've been having these conversations."
Zenimax was announced as the new owner of id earlier this week.
There's an interview with Altman and John Carmack through the link.
