This is in response to Rubio's and Romney's DREAM Act proposal. No call has to be raised and it is reasonable to ask Republicans to support Republican Orrin Hatch's version of the DREAM Act.
From the National Tequila Party Movement.
Recently, there has been much discussion from Senator Marco Rubio and Mitt Romney regarding the DREAM Act. Both were against it and now seem to want to support a version of a DREAM Act that creates a permanent underclass in light of a key election year and as they seek the Latino 2012 vote. The Tequila Party will not stand and allow this issue to be used as a continued political football, therefore, if Sen. Marco Rubio and Romney really want to support the DREAM Act — they must support Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) sponsored version of S.1545 — the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act. Anything short of Hatch's bill will be recognized as a divisive tactic and as a means to limit political power and issues supporting taxation without representation. According to Ron Hayduk, Professor of Political Science City University of New York (CUNY), immigrant taxation without representation not only challenges the legitimacy of America's mantle of democratic governance but also provides a rationale and opportunity for organizing a progressive political majority.
Starting May 1, 2012, Lead Co-President and also a Civil Rights and immigration lawyer — Shirl Mora James, will begin a DREAM Act training video series that will keep DREAM Act activists and national Latino leaders UNITED and strong on this issue. The Tequila Party is fully aware of this issue becoming more and more politicized and the Mexican-American matriarchy will not allow our children and our youth to be taken advantage of anymore. We have already lost one of our own children — Joaquin Luna, when he took his own life because he felt he had no hope, and eligible Mexican-American voters in the Southwest will not allow his death to be in vain.
Lastly, if we do not see both Rubio and Romney obtaining solid commitments from GOP Senators from all high Hispanic populated states before the beginning of the 2012 autumn season (with Rubio taking the lead) we will consider their discussions of the DREAM Act mere lip service. If junior Senator Rubio is unable to secure commitments from GOP Senators this year, perhaps he can support a Mexican Adjustment Act that would emulate the Cuban Adjustment Act.

They ponder whether "you didn't build that" will sink Obama, and why a rope-a-dope strategy won't work for Romney.

The workers at a posh Central Park condominium plot to steal back their pensions from the thieving Wall Street billionaire who's about to get away with the ultimate white-collar crime in this heist comedy starring Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy. Financial giant Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda) has just been placed under house arrest in his luxury New York City penthouse for cleaning out his investors to the tune of two billion dollars. Meanwhile, on the complete opposite end of the financial spectrum, Josh Kovacs (Ben Stiller) earns a modest living as the manager of The Tower -- the luxurious building where Shaw resides. Upon learning that the building staffers who entrusted Shaw with their retirement funds are about to lose their life savings, and that the thief will likely get off scot-free, Josh convinces a small group of Tower employees and a downtrodden former resident that Shaw has stashed a million-dollar safety net somewhere in his opulent penthouse, and that it's theirs for the taking if they can just slip past security. With dim-witted concierge Charlie (Casey Affleck), under-educated electrical engineer Enrique (Michael Peña), safecracking maid Odessa (Gabourey Sidibe) and downtrodden former resident Mr. Fitzhugh (Matthew Broderick) to back him, Josh recruits crafty swindler Slide (Eddie Murphy) to help get their money back. Although the security in Arthur's condo is unusually tight, between Josh's knowledge of the building and Slide's sleight of hand, this ragtag gang of thieves just might have what it takes to get the job done. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

In this third installment of the popular action comedy franchise, LAPD Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) and Chief Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) book a flight for Europe and prepare to clean up the streets of Paris after discovering that Chinese triads have extended their criminal influence to the City of Lights. Chinese Ambassador Han (Tzi Ma) is in Los Angeles and about to reveal the details of a clandestine triad conspiracy to the World Criminal Court when an assassin takes aim and pulls the trigger. Though Carter has been demoted to directing traffic at the time of the shooting, Lee is acting as a bodyguard to Han when the bullets begin to fly. Lee quickly gives chase, but hesitates when he realizes that the gunman is Kenji (Hiroyuki Sanada), his old friend from the orphanage. When triads steal an envelope containing vital information regarding the conspiracy from Soo Yung's (Zhang Jingchu) Chinatown kung fu studio, Carter and Chief Inspector Lee race to reach Genevieve (Noémie Lenoir), an underground entertainer who could prove the key to bagging the bad guys. During the course of their investigation, however, triads clash with the French police, threatening to turn the romance capitol of Europe into an explosive hotbed of crime and violence. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Directed by Jeff Nathanson, The Last Shot follows what happens when, like so many aspiring entertainers, the FBI gets caught up in the grandeur of showbiz. When Agent Joe Devine (Alec Baldwin) is given a key role in an elaborate scheme to take down the infamous mob boss John Gotti, he gladly accepts the assignment and goes undercover as a Hollywood producer. Before long, he has assembled an unwitting cast, including aspiring director Steven Schatz (Matthew Broderick), who agrees to direct for Devine without realizing the entire production is merely a front for the investigation. As Agent Devine and several of his cohorts from the bureau begin enjoying their lives as self-appointed industry players, however, justice takes a backseat as the would-be law-enforcement operatives put all of the passion into turning what began as a sham movie project into a true Hollywood contender. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Shot almost entirely on a two-and-a-half-story recreation of a full-size operating airport terminal, this romantic comedy from director Steven Spielberg revolves around an Eastern European man by the name of Viktor Navorski (Tom Hanks), whose plans of immigrating to New York were hastened by a violent coup in his home country. Unfortunately, Viktor finds himself on the wrong end of a nasty technicality while en route to America: His passport was issued from a country, which, during its upheaval, ceased to exist in an official capacity. Unauthorized to leave Kennedy Airport upon his arrival and unable to return home, Viktor finds himself exiled inside the terminal's international transit lounge. Though airport official Frank Dixon (Stanley Tucci) views Viktor as an annoying bureaucratic glitch, other airport employees -- including a beautiful flight attendant by the name of Amelia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) -- come to see him as a welcome, if unofficial, addition to their numbers. As the days stretch on into months, the terminal transforms from an intimidating atmosphere of forced assimilation into a country within itself, complete with culture, ambition, status, complex diversity, and the need for love. The supporting cast includes Diego Luna, Chi McBride, Kumar Pallana, Zoe Saldana, Eddie Jones, and Jude Ciccolella. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

A gifted forger and confidence man attempts to stay one step ahead of the lawman determined to bring him to justice in this comedy-drama from Steven Spielberg, based on a true story. Frank W. Abagnale Jr. (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a 16-year-old high school student who finds himself emotionally cut adrift when his mother, Paula (Nathalie Baye), leaves his father, Frank Abagnale Sr. (Christopher Walken), after Frank Sr. falls into arrears with the Internal Revenue Service. One day at school, Frank Jr. attempts to pass himself off as a substitute teacher, and easily makes the subterfuge work. His small-scale success gives Frank some ideas, and he soon discovers bigger and more profitable ways of hoaxing others, passing himself off as an airline pilot, a doctor, and an attorney. Along the way, Frank learns how to become a master forger, and uses his talent and charm to pass over 2.5 million dollars in phony checks. Frank's increasingly audacious work soon attracts the attention of Carl Hanratty (Tom Hanks), an FBI agent who is determined to put Frank behind bars. Frank seems to enjoy being pursued by Carl, and even goes so far as to call Carl on the phone to chat every once in a while. While posing as a doctor, Frank falls in love with Brenda Strong (Amy Adams), a sweet girl working as a candy striper. When Frank asks Brenda to marry him, he decides to assume a new identity to impress her father, Roger (Martin Sheen) -- who happens to be the District Attorney of New Orleans, LA. Catch Me If You Can was based on the autobiography of the real Frank W. Abagnale Jr., who has a cameo in the film and today works on the side of the law as a top consultant on preventing forgery and designing secure checking systems. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Indications were that this action sequel was in trouble before production began, when the male lead from the first film, Keanu Reeves, declined a role in the follow-up. Sandra Bullock returns as Annie Porter, an accident-prone ditz who is thrilled when her boyfriend Alex (Jason Patric) presents her with two tickets for a cruise ship vacation to the Bahamas. The trip is a peace offering presented because Annie has just learned that Alex is a police officer who's been lying to her about his choice of profession. Little does the happy couple know that the disgruntled John Geiger (Willem Dafoe), designer of the ship's computer system, has plotted a violent takeover of the vessel and a diamond hijacking that puts everyone on board in mortal danger. Being the dashing police officer he is, Alex leaps into action and tries to stop Geiger, but not before the ship crashes at top velocity into a Caribbean port town. Sandra Bullock agreed to star in this flop of a sequel in order to get financial backing for a pet project, Hope Floats (1998), a low-budget drama that turned a healthy profit. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Delightful and informative, clever without being cute...Our audience will love this program. WHRV, Norfolk, VA Im Flora Delaterre, plant detective. Plants are my beat; phytomedicinals (medicinal compounds from plants) are my specialty. What is The Plant Detective? A short informational radio show on which I, Flora Delaterre, share my plant investigations. Click on the radio in the picture above to hear what the show sounds like. On each episode of my show, I investigate one plant and its medicinal compounds, benefits, efficacy, risks, or lore. My investigations take me around the globe, from Sri Lanka to Siberia, from the Appalachian Mountains to the rainforests of the Northwest, from research laboratories to your backyard. The Plant Detective has been on public radio airwaves since 1996 in western Montana and on community and public stations around the country and the world since 2007. The show began as a project of the Skaggs School of Pharmacy at the University of Montana and Montana Public Radio. Now the Botanical Medicine Department of Bastyr University in Kenmore, Washington oversees content. The Plant Detective is free, a minute and a half long, and available to any public, community radio station, or reading service. Find out how you can get The Plant Detective. You can also stream the show live on Saturdays at 6 pm (Mountain Standard Time) right after "All Things Considered" and before "Prairie Home Companion," or on Monday at 3:58 pm before "The Pea Green Boat." (Click the "Listen Live" icon.) Subscribe to podcasts of the show, or listen to audiofiles in my archive. A generous grant from the American Society of Plant Biologists made our podcasts possible. "There is no doubt this series is both entertaining and informative. We at WETD 90.7 Alfred, New York, receive many positive comments... Keep up the good work." |

"Ayaw namin ng may expectations. Alam mo 'yon, 'What's gonna happen tomorrow? Magkasama ba kami ulit?' Let's just keep the friendship the best we can, then we'll see," says Daiana Menezes about her relationship with Boys Night Out DJ Sam YG.
Photo: Noel OrsalBrazilian model-TV personality Daiana Menezes says she has found a second home in the Philippines.
The Eat Bulaga! co-host has been to China, Hong Kong, Korea, and Singapore as a ramp model. However, the newbie actress says she has found a lot of things to love in our country and she wants to stay here for good.
"I love this place!" Daiana said. "You know, I've been around, I've been in different countries. But this is the place that when I arrived here it felt like I'm home, athough Brazil is exactly at the opposite side. Like, I found another Brazil on the other side of the world. The people are so nice. Everything is good about the Philippines. I have nothing to complain about and it was so easy for me to adjust. I really plan to stay here for good if I can."
In 2007, the young lady from Brazil first appeared on local television via Eat Bulaga! She was then the "money girl" on the noontime show's "Itaktak Mo" segment.
"They asked if I could do a casting. So, I went to Eat Bulaga! from Shanghai [China]. I wanted to stay longer [in the Philippines], so I said, 'Okay, let's try showbiz.' I didn't expect na I would even speak Tagalog. So, I just started as a money girl in 'Itaktak Mo!' I think they saw naman that I can talk Tagalog and they started giving me spiels. That's how I started," recalled Daiana.
She also said that she is lucky to be part of Eat Bulaga! because it opened a lot of opportunities for her in local show business.
Daiana added, "Kahit sino naman ang nasa Eat Bulaga!, they are very blessed like other people who worked with them. I can see na people come and go in Eat Bulaga! but if you stay, wow, you're so blessed. I've been with Eat Bulaga! for three years and I feel so blessed na they keep me there until now."
HAVING A SHOW WITH BOSSING VIC. In 2008, the 22-year-old celebrity had her first taste in acting as she became part of the first movie together of top Pinoy comedians Dolphy and Vic Sotto, Dobol Trobol. She also played a part in the movie Yaya and Angelina: The Spoiled Brat Movie starring Michael V. and Ogie Alcasid.
Now, Daiana is given a chance to work with Vic again in TV5's weekly sitcom My Darling Aswang.
Unlike other foreigners who enter local showbiz, Daiana said she didn't have a hard time learning her newfound job as an actress. She added that she's doing her best to speak Tagalog, which is usually required in the script.
"I'm working on it kasi hindi ako nag-aral. Everything I learned about Tagalog, narinig ko lang. Never akong masyadong nahirapan kasi when you want to learn something, you really have to really do it," she said.
In a separate interview, Vic commended her for being a good student. He said, "Masipag siyang mag-aral. Mayroon siyang kusa."
"DON'T LINK ME TO HIM." While Daiana looks up to Vic as her "bossing," some of the entertainment media still asked her if there's a possibility for them to become an item since they were paired in My Darling Aswang.
The Brazilian model immediately told the press, "Bakit nagkaroon ng gano'n? No, no, no, wala nang issues na ganun. Guwapo naman si Bossing pero wala nang ganun. Don't link me to him."
She said that it won't happen because, "Alam mo, I respect Bossing. Siyempre, guwapo naman siya. Pero alam mo, because this role was suggested by Pia [Guanio, girlfriend of Vic] I would never ever [think] kay Bossing na... Wala, I just wanna work and do my job."

Is the band expandable to fit larger arms

Best Answer
It is, up to a point. But it won't fit big biceps, I think. I have larger biceps and, while it still fits, I can tell that should my arms get a lot bigger it won't fit eventually. The strap isn't elastic, so it's also rather uncomfortable since it doesn't stretch as your muscle flexes.

It is somewhat expandable. One thing that may be possible, although I haven't tried this, is to buy a Velcro strap (you can get from a hardware store) and extend the length of your band that way.
Although the band is not elastic, I think it was intentionally designed that way because if it was elastic, it would end up sliding down your arm.- Answered by Jonathan Y from Berkeley

text: Yvette Morgan's passion for student literacy and education is reflected in her ambitious undertaking as Co-Director of St. John's University's GEAR UP program. This passion was clearly evident recently at the U.S. Department of Education where as an invited guest speaker she presented "Examples of Success: How GEAR UP Programs Boost College Readiness," at an Education Policy Briefing. Commended by the U.S. Department of Education for her leadership skills, commitment to student and teacher training, promotion of parental involvement and building meaningful community partnerships, Director Morgan was chosen from more than 300 GEAR UP project directors to share data on St. John's GEAR UP project goals and demonstrate a successful platform to increase college readiness in urban districts. GEAR UP (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs) is a federally-funded program established by the U.S. Department of Education to increase the number of low-income, disadvantaged students that graduate from high school and enroll at a postsecondary institution. "I was asked to present based on my participation as a panelist during a New Director's Meeting last October," Morgan says. "The GEAR UP program has existed for over 10 years and this is the first time the program has been spotlighted by the Department." St. John's GEAR UP program works with students at Oliver Wendell Holmes Middle School (I.S. 204) and Albert Shanker School (I.S. 126), both in Long Island City, following them from middle school through high school while providing tutoring, mentoring, exposure to college activities, academic and social counseling, financial aid seminars, residential summer camps, parent workshops and professional development for teachers. When asked about the goal of GEAR UP, Morgan replies: "No child rises to low expectations. I believe in having high expectations for every single one of our students. Our goal is to encourage them to explore the many options available to them and emphasize that college is attainable and affordable." Her devotion to the program, a dedicated staff, and University and community support have enabled the GEAR UP Co- Director to transform St. John's program into one of the premier, respected programs in the nation.A Longtime GEAR UP Provider St. John's has been a GEAR UP provider since 1999. In 2005, the program graduated 68 percent of its high school students on time compared to New York City which graduated 51 percent. Furthermore, over 70 percent of the GEAR UP graduates enrolled in college that year. With the responsibility for providing services to 800 middle school students and 650 high school students (attending over 44 high schools), tracking students' progress and securing resources to ensure they are college-ready is hard work but the GEAR UP staff are equipped for the challenges. Felicia Harper, Assistant Director of St. John's GEAR Up program, coordinates the after-school programs, designs tutoring curriculum, schedules college tours, and recruits staff. "This program has not only taught me the necessary skills to assist students in need, but has also inspired me to continue contributing to the community," she notes. "I have a great creative staff of young people here," adds the Program Co-Director. "Our staff is formerly trained and serves as role models for students by establishing meaningful relationships and positive support system." In an effort to fulfill the program's goal to acquaint students with an array of resources and a valuable education, she has partnered with numerous community and state-based agencies including New York State Higher Education Services Corporation, the Consultation Center at Yale University, Goodwill Industries and Department of Youth and Community Development. "I can honestly say this program has truly been a blessing to me and at the end of the day it's about creating a systemic change in our communities."

MasculinitiesThis is an exciting new edition of R.W. Connell′s ground�breaking text, which has become a classic work on the nature and construction of masculine identity. Connell argues that there is not one masculinity, but many different masculinities, each associated with different positions of power. In a world gender order that continues to privilege men over women, but also raises difficult issues for men and boys, his account is more pertinent than ever before. In a substantial new introduction and conclusion, Connell discusses the development of masculinity studies in the ten years since the book′s initial publication. He explores global gender relations, new theories, and practical uses of mascunlinity research. Looking to the future, his new concluding chapter addresses the politics of masculinities, and the implications of masculinity research for understanding current world issues. Against the backdrop of an increasingly divided world, dominated by neo�conservative politics, Connell′s account highlights a series of compelling questions about the future of human society. This second edition of Connell′s classic book will be essential reading for students taking courses on masculinities and gender studies, and will be of interest to students and scholars across the humanities and social sciences.

By: Associated Press | WHEC.com
President Barack Obama says civil rights icon Rosa Parks has taken her rightful place among those who have shaped the course of U.S. history.
Obama and House Speaker John Boehner unveiled a statue of Parks in a ceremony at the Capitol. Parks becomes the first black woman to be honored with a full-length statue in the Capitol's Statuary Hall.
A bust of another black woman, abolitionist Sojourner Truth, sits in the Capitol Visitors Center.
Obama says the nation learned from Parks that there is always something we can do to improve the future.

Archbishops of Canterbury who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

Talk about kicking someone when he's down...
The Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, has taken inter-religious rivalry, and even prejudice, to a new low, attacking the Irish Catholic Church as it (and the entire Church) struggles to deal with a terrible and longstanding child sex-abuse scandal.
"I was speaking to an Irish friend recently," Williams told the BBC of a conversation with a likely non-existent person, "who was saying that it's quite difficult in some parts of Ireland to go down the street wearing a clerical collar now.
Catholic Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin was so infuriated — and proper;y so — by Williams' outburst the he was compelled to release a statement about how Williams' "unequivocal and unqualified comment... has stunned me. Those working for renewal in the Catholic Church in Ireland did not need this comment on this Easter weekend and do not deserve it."
Well said. Perhaps the golden-throned Anglican leader should have consulted his own church's records before throwing the first stone from the glass house of his faith.
An Internet search of the words "Anglican" and pedophile" hardly comes up empty.
Here's just one story of many, and from this year in which a judge was "astonished" the Anglican Church allowed a priest jailed for sexually abusing three altar boys to re-enter the ministry and commit "strikingly similar" offenses.
"Judge Sydney Tilmouth today said he found it remarkable that Wilfred Edwin Dennis was left in a position by the Anglican Church to commit the abuse, after being found guilty of molesting three altar boys in the early 1970s.
"Outside court, Dennis' sister said the Anglican Church had allowed Dennis back into the ministry because they had trusted him."
Yet another case, this one involving an Anglican priest's "indecent assault" on a young girl, "caused a furor when it was learned that senior Anglicans knew of the allegations years earlier."
Then there's last year's case of the remorseless Anglican Church pedophile and Church of England Boys Society youth leader Andrew William Dawson-Ryan, who systematically abused boys "hundreds of times."
Between 1972 and 1988, he abused a number of boys entrusted into his care, and plied them with cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana and pornography.
There's a lot more, but you get the idea.
None of the much-smaller Anglican Church's shame excuses, in any way, shape or form, the criminal behavior of Catholic pedophile clergy or child-abusing priests, and certainly not the equally criminal cover-ups of those cases, which have both gone on in Ireland and other countries for decades. Like a small leak, the mounting charges have burst the dam, and it certainly can seem to the layman that "Catholic priest" and "pedophile" are one and the same.
But the Archbishop of Canterbury is not a layman, and should know better. His vicious comments amid the holy Easter season are so bizarre, ill-considered and horribly timed that they could only have come from the mouth of an anti-Catholic bigot.
As they did.
The Catholic Church, because of its size and far-reaching ministries, may well be the unfortunate flag-bearer of religions with the highest number of sex-abuse crimes and cover-ups in its closet. It's not any "honor," to be sure, and my readers are well-aware of my own thoughts on the sheer evil behind it all.
But there is nothing to be gained by self-righteous bigotry. A man of faith like Williams should be shoulder-to-shoulder with the MANY Catholics who are working for justice for God's Innocent Children, and for those who betrayed them.
God bless you all, and may you have a glorious Easter!
— Father Tim

´Rowan Williams believes that gay sexual relationships can "reflect the love of God" in a way that is comparable to marriage, The Times has learnt. The news threatens to reopen bitter divisions over ordaining gay priests, which pushed the Anglican Communion towards a split.´
Williams should take care of his own church´s problems and let Catholics sort out theirs.

Also, The John Jay Study stated: " scathing criticism directed at the bishops who failed to recognize the horror of sexual abuse of children, ignoring the human needs of the victims and mollycoddling abusive priests."

@JoanHugh As a Catholic mother, I don't care about a study that is now being used to rationalize the sexual encounter of a grown man upon a boy under the age of 18 in a religious institution, school or rectory.

The Church of England is a parlour Religion vis a vis Afternoon Tea with the Vicar. It's adherants have no muscles in their arms on meeting them. They flop about and sway with "How are you" like rag-dolls. Eddie Izzard has them to a tee. Check him out on Youtube. And Monty Python 'Every Seed is Sacred'. Slainte.

I don't know about the scandal in Ireland but in the United States it was not pedophilia.(5%) It was homosexual activity with adolesant boys. No one will print that but look it up. The investigation was done by the John Jay College. On another point last Saturday night 150,000 people came into the Catholic Church in the United States. You won't read that in the newspaper. I read it in the Bosron Catholic newspaper "The Pilot"

What the Archbishop of Canterbury said is true our Catholic Church in Ireland is in a complete mess.because of secrecy and cover ups. Even though the abuse scandals are out in the open they are still covering some of them up, even as late as last month they have tried to stop one woman from giving her story.

He is no more a bigot than anyone else who is posting here. He may have his own agenda for sure, however he has accurately reflecte what the majority of the church-going Catholic Faith Community in Ireland genuinely believe at the present time. Lets face it, the Vatican and the Holy Father had no scruples about exploiting divisions in the COI by offering a home to congregations who object to the ordination of women or gays as priests. Who's stones; who's houses??

Pedophiles come from all walks of life. Not just clergy. There is not a denomination that is immune from these horrible crimes, but neither are doctors, teachers, principals, dads, uncles, brothers, or women. The parallel that all gays are pedophiles is not a fair comparison to gays anywhere.
As for the archbishop of canterbury. well the English Irish thing is an old one. And yes, he is a bigot. Maybe the Queen needs to step in and replace him.

Many priests in the Catholic church are homosexuals and paedophiles who sexually abuse young boys and have been doing so for thousands of years. They should be arrested and hung in a public square for all the people to see
The Anglican Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams is 100% correct and is only stating what 90% of the Irish people believe about those pervert priests

Barneyjo, do the words "confused," "baffled," and "bewildered" have any resonance with you in regard to your comment? "Dr." (he isn't, by the way) Williams has already admitted he took his foot our of his arse and put it in his mouth; you should probably do the same, as your comment shows you either didn't read Fr. Tim, or didn't understand what he wrote, or both.

Ok so i ordered an hdmi cable for my computer to hook up to my 48" samsung. I have it set on 1080p as that and 1776x1000 are the only two resolutions it will display but it wont display them in 60hz idk why?? Well a big problem is txt is soooo small on everything i changed the text to 200% but when i click on steam or internet browser or any other program its tiny and i cant see anything... what do i do??
Do you have a dedicated video card? Anyway, set in control panel/adjust screen resolution/make text and other items larger or smaller/DPI setting the desired value. Or stay closer to your TV set? For steam it's nice to use "Big Screen" mode.
Does your TV support 60Hz refresh rate? Anyway, once you have a picture at your desired resolution the accessibility options in your operating system can be used to set the text size larger, which works across all applications such as firefox. As already mentioned, steam's Big Picture mode is designed for TVs!
MY tv does support 60hz, its set at 1080p when hooked up to the pc but i can only run 29hertz and 30 hertz or it wont work. The only thing the dpi settings changed was the size of windows aplication txt sized but any other programs i run or go on the internet the txt is really tiny. I have a built gaming pc amd graphics card 1gb i dont remember the model
open Your internet Browser "tools" option, and go into (content) "fonts, and Colors". Set a MINIMAL value of 16 or So, that Should be adequate for text on screen while browsing. As for Your Refresh rate, thats kinda tricky. Maybe an un-install of GPU driver's.If your running AMD/Nvidia, Each have VERY nice control option's for Your display. Look into those as opposed to Your operationg system options.
How long is the HDMI cable? I had similar issues with very long cable (15 or 20 m, I don't recall). If that's the case, bring PC closer to the TV and try shorter HDMI cable to confirm the cause of the problem. If you must use long HDMI cable, you can try signal extender http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812797004
A picture is worth a thousand words... You can force your AMD gfx to display whatever you want...while your tv shows at 1080p your gfx can still do a 1280x720 signal...you just have to add it in manually. You may also want to try different pixel formats...start with YCbCr4:4:4 pixel format....
Windows ultimate 64bit, 8gb ddr3 ram, phenom II 2.8ghz quad core processor, saphire radeon express 4850 i think 1gb, 500gb hdd etc etc. samsung LN-t3842h
Have you increased the DPI? (Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display) I normally find 115% fine even on a 1440p monitor though this is personal preference.
Yes i already changed the dpi settings and any windows application is fine but everything else is very hard to see.
go to an optometrist and have your eyes checked, then get a pair of glasses or contacts and don't stare into the sun or other stars lol
This is not a hardware feature but a feature of windows regardless of what kind of display you are hooked up to, there is no way your montior is not supported.

Angela Gelli, Ph.D.
Associate Professor |
Education Research Interests Research SynopsisCryptococcus neoformans is a human fungal pathogen that causes an invasive and life-threatening infection primarily in patients with a compromised immune system. Once cryptococcal cells disseminate into the bloodstream, they cross the blood-brain barrier (composed of the brain endothelium) and cause meningoencephalitis, an often-deadly infection. C. neoformans is now the leading cause of fungal meningitis world-wide and accounts for a significant proportion of AIDS-related infections. How cryptococcal cells manage to breach the blood-brain barrier and enter the brain is not fully understood. Through the use of proteomics, molecular biology and an in vitro model of the blood-brain barrier, we are identifying and examining the role of several key surface proteins of Cryptococcus in breaching the barrier and promoting brain invasion. Since we believe that the relationship between cryptococcal cells and the brain endothelium is highly dynamic we are identifying the temporal protein expression profiles of the brain endothelium in response to C. neoformans. We anticipate that these studies will lead to an understanding of the mechanisms that promote the invasion of cryptococcal cells into the CNS, which we can then manipulate and exploit for the delivery of drugs into the brain to treat brain cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, the identification of key proteins (either on the pathogen or the brain endothelium) that facilitate CNS invasion may lead the way to the development of drugs that prevent fungal meningitis.

Committee on Government Affairs September 10, 2012
Our Guest Speaker for Government Affairs meeting will be State Assembly Member Nancy Skinner. Come learn how Nancy sees the upcoming ballot measures.
When: Monday, September 10, 2012 ~ 12:00 P.M. to 1:30 P.M.
Where: Berkeley Chamber of Commerce 1834 University Ave., Second Floor
Please Bring your Brown Bag Lunch and note that Space is limited
Elected to represent the 14th Assembly District in 2008, Nancy Skinner was first appointed Chair of the Assembly's Natural Resources Committee and currently Chairs the Assembly Rules Committee. Nancy brings to the Assembly experience as a Berkeley City Councilmember, authoring the first Styrofoam ban in the US, and as a member of the East Bay Regional Park District Board, small business owner and founder of the international association Local Governments for Sustainability. Nancy has an extensive background in climate change, coordinated the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign and the 2005 Summit between CEOs, which included Governor Schwarzenegger and UK Prime Minister Blair, and which helped lead to the signing of California's Global Warming Solutions Act. As a legislator, Nancy Skinner is perhaps best known for her E-Fairness bill requiring Amazon and other internet retailers to collect sales tax -- legislation that is expected to bring California up to $500 million in new revenue. In the Assembly, Nancy has also authored legislation to increase solar energy use, improve the energy efficiency of homes and businesses, make food stamps more accessible to eligible families and expand awareness of the Earned Income Tax Credit--federal dollars that could put needed cash into the households of over 800,000 eligible Californians. Nancy and her staff love her East Bay District and look for every chance they can get to honor constituents for their achievements, such as her annual Women of the Year event, and to host programs such as tax preparation assistance, vaccination and health check-ups, recidivism prevention, shoreline clean up and more.
