NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Time Warner Cable ( TWX) is claiming something of a victory in its drawn-out, four-week tug-of-war with CBS ( CBS), which had triggered a blackout of the network's channels for cable-TV subscribers in New York, Los Angeles and Dallas. Outgoing Time Warner Cable CEO Glenn Britt made clear in a statement what industry observers have been positing throughout the blackout -- the cable-TV operator's motivation was less about its negotiation with CBS and more about forcing the Federal Communication Commission to reconsider the very touchy issue of retransmission fees. CBS and Time Warner Cable ended their payment dispute on Monday and programming resumed in millions of homes later that evening. At present, cable and satellite-TV operators pay broadcasters a "retransmission fee" to take their free over-the-air signal and digitize it for their customers. The current structure grew out of 1992 federal regulations that Time Warner Cable would very much like to see the FCC reopen and revise. Britt's statement lays it out: "... We are also encouraged by the 50+ consumer organizations and legislators that supported our call for Congress and the FCC to reassess the 1992 retransmission consent rules. The rules are woefully out of date, are the primary reason cable bills are rising, and too frequently leave our customers without the programming they love. We sincerely hope that policymakers heed that call and take action to prevent these unfortunate blackouts soon." Time Warner Cable was rising on the agreement, adding 1.5% to $108.99 in afternoon trading while CBS was jumping 3.8% to $53.05. CBS, the country's most-watched network, as CEO Leslie Moonves will tell anyone willing to listen, probably got exactly what it wanted all along, said Todd Juenger, a media analyst at BernsteinResearch, in an investor note published today. "There's no way CBS would have reduced their price demands just as their negotiating leverage was increasing (and TWC knew that from the start)," Juenger wrote. Marci Ryvicker of Wells Fargo Securities concurred. "Our gut tells us that this dispute favored content over distribution (we hear that TWC moved a lot further than CBS), with CBS receiving similar rates and terms to what it recently signed with Verizon FiOS (that 3-year deal was signed 8/22, with sub fees reaching $2/month over time, and includes incremental payments for digital rights)." Fans of the National Football League and the U.S. Open can now breathe a bit easier knowing that CBS will be back on their Time Warner Cable dial, and as always, in its much coveted position at channel 2.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Chiropractic Treatment of ADD
I was listening to an infomercial on tv last night and heard a chiropractor speeking about back disorders. He was advertising relief from many problem. Then a women came on saying something to the extent of... "my child is ADD and suffered poor grades and now that he has gotten treatment he is a straight "A" student. Do you know of this claim/treatment? Does this fall into the holistic type method?
Although I have little doubt that chiropractic care has many potentials and gifts that have not yet been "proven" via the Western interpretation of "scientific method", I know of no chiropractic therapy that replaces stimulants for persons with ADD.

THREE more years of music, theatre and comedy will be brought to Cheshire villages thanks to a cash boost of more than £260,000.
Cheshire Rural Touring Arts, in partnership with its Lancashire sister scheme, has won £262,194 funding from the Arts Council England.
The group, supported by Cheshire West and Chester and Cheshire East councils, promotes two seasons each year involving 130 volunteer promoters and books 46 different companies and bands each year.

This weekend's UFC 167's main event features a marquee match-up in Johny Hendricks vs. current UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre. Johny is being described as the only real challenger left with the potential to beat GSP. What do you think his chances are? I would recommend asking yourself the following three questions before you make the call.
I do. Johny is a finisher more often than not. Maybe he didn't finish Condit, but he was looking for it and fought around the onslaught of the "Natural Born Killer". Johny puts periods on the end of sentences. It goes like this usually: Big. Left. Hand. If he lands that good night GSP and Hendricks is the new champ. Oh, and he happens to be a phenomenal wrestler by the way in case you missed the 1000 articles on it since he joined the UFC.
How much does GSP himself believe the hype?
If you are the UFC Welterweight champion you have seen the destructive force of Johny Hendricks and his left hand. Amir Sadollah, Charlie Brenneman, TJ Waldburger, Jon Fitch, and Martin Kampmann have all fallen to the power of Hendricks. He is a beast and I don't care who you are watching film of him smashing people is going to affect your outlook on the potential outcomes of the fight. GSP may say he isn't concerned, but I bet you he really is. I would be.
Will this go the distance?
If it does I believe the decision will go to GSP and here's why. GSP is the bigger fighter and arguably the stronger of the two in terms of natural strength. Johny is going to be throwing around a bigger fighter and if you have grappled with less or equally skilled guys who weight more than you – well, you know the deal. You get worn out because technique is great, but when someone else has the answer and you are covered by a human blanket who won't budge it's a long night. Johny needs to finish early or he doesn't stand a chance against GSP's cardio.Tags: "bj Penn", Anderson Silva, featured, gsp vs hendricks, mma, UFC 167, ufc news, ufc press conference

Bargain hunting reportedly boosted corn futures Thursday afternoon. The weekly USDA Export Sales report indicated modest U.S. corn marketings last week, which met industry expectations. CBOT futures proved weak in response to favorable Midwest forecasts in early action, but traders seemingly concluded the market was relatively cheap later in the day. July corn closed up 3.0 cents to $4.44/bushel Thursday afternoon, while December gained 2.0 cents to $4.4375.
The soy complex came under increasing pressure. Although the Export Sales report seemed rather favorable, the Chicago bean and meal markets turned decidedly lower once again. Favorable forecasts probably weighed on new crop prices to some extent, but it looked as if strong technical selling was depressing old crop prices. Asian palm strength apparently supported the oil market. July soybeans plunged 30.25 cents to $14.1525/bushel as Thursday's pit session ended, while July soyoil advanced 0.16 cents to 38.58 cents/pound, and July soymeal tumbled $13.1 to $469.2/ton.
The wheat markets proved rather mixed Thursday. Export sales of new crop wheat far exceeded industry expectations, which in more normal circumstances might have sent prices sharply higher. Bearish global fundamentals kept the pressure upon prices, as did generally favorable weather forecasts. Conversely, forthcoming rains might hurt the winter wheat crop, which may explain the KC bounce. July CBOT wheat futures slid 4.0 cents to $5.8525/bushel at their Thursday close, while July KCBT wheat rose 1.25 cents to $7.055 and July MWE futures sagged 2.0 to $6.82.
Surging cash bids sent cattle futures higher Thursday. Anticipation of late-week wholesale losses seemed to trigger CME cattle selling Wednesday. However, futures reversed sharply higher today, which reflected reports that packers had boosted their bids above last week's cash levels. August cattle spiked 2.97 cents to 146.00 cents/pound at Thursday's settlement, while December jumped 2.05 to 150.65. Meanwhile, August feeder cattle soared 2.97 cents to 205.85 and October leapt 2.85 to 206.67.
Hog futures followed cattle higher. Trader disappointment with Wednesday's late-afternoon cash and wholesale reports caused a weak start to today's hog trading. However, strong cash and wholesale news at midsession, along with soaring cattle futures apparently powered increasing gains as the day passed. August hog futures ended Thursday having climbed 0.85 to 130.80 cents/pound, while December ran up 2.40 cents to 98.65.

"I don't like Mondays!" mewled future god of rock conscience Sir Bob Geldof...
Well he hadn't been along to Shaun Keaveny: Live And Langourous had he?
An unmissable priapic plate-spinning panoply of live entertainment... you want the biggest names in comedy? You want fab gear music guests too? You want stand-up satire and sassy chat show moves from the nation's most beloved radio presenter (sic)?
If the answer is a tepid maybe to at least two of these questions, pop along to Shaun Keaveny: Live And Langourous! Some of you won't want your money back, or your money back, guaranteed! (No money back is actually guaranteed.)
Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
Shaun Keaveny
Never knowingly over played, BBC 6Music breakfast show hero. Expect anything from Scottish indie pop to crunk from the dirty South, via northern soul, punk, rave and stadium rock. Just don't request anything by his now legendary late '80s Leigh supergroup Mosque, unless 'a gothic rock opera in 3 minutes 36 seconds' really is your kind of thing!
Shaun can also be found doing stand-up comedy!
'Keaveny has a real comic gift, with a huge talent for impressions and mimicry.
The funniest man in the room, something truly special!' (Time Out).
Shaun Keaveny tour dates
Brendon Burns
Noisy, manic and in-your-face comedian from Australia. This foul-mouthed antipodean is known as a masterly exponent of his art, intelligent and hilarious, railing against bigotry without preaching and taking the audience to the edge of their belief systems with his full on comedy routine. Brendon has appeared on The 11 O'clock Show and The Stand Up Show.
'The most jaw-droppingly awkward, painful, yet ultimately rewarding piece of stand-up we've ever seen' (Time Out)
Brendon Burns tour dates
Paul Tonkinson
A comic with a polished line in mimicry who manages to ridicule most of the UK, and abroad, at the same time. Time Out Comedian of the Year and Channel 4 star, best known for his time as a Big Breakfast presenter.
Paul is one of the most esteemed performers working on the UK comedy circuit, with a bullet-proof set and an abundance of universally funny material. A guarantee of first class laughs from a sensational live performer and top-billing stand up star. Not to be missed!
'Hilarious. No one makes me laugh like Paul Tonkinson. Go see him' (Michael McIntyre)
'Hilariously obtuse and dependably funny' (Chortle).
Paul Tonkinson tour dates
Marcel Lucont
Marcel Lucont is a flâneur, raconteur, and bon-viveur. France's premier misanthropist and lover with his unique blend of sardonic wit and Gallic charm. Alter ego of Alexis Dubus. Winner of multiple awards including Chortle, Best Fringe show and Best comedy show at the Edinburgh festival.
'A must-see... In his own words, he is fantastic' (Herald Sun)
'Wonderful French wit... superb stuff... His elegant, sardonic turns of phrase are an utter joy' (Time Out)
'Fresh, accessible and hilarious' (The Guardian).

Foothill Ranch, CA, United States, 2009/08/27 - Boeing Advanced Network and Space Systems, a unit of Boeing Phantom Works, presented Bal Seal Engineering, Inc., with an award for its work on the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Fast Access Spacecraft Testbed (FAST) program.
Boeing Advanced Network and Space Systems, a unit of Boeing Phantom Works, has presented Bal Seal Engineering, Inc., a global provider of sealing, connecting, conducting and shielding solutions, with an award for its work on the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Fast Access Spacecraft Testbed (FAST) program.
DARPAs FAST aims to develop a new, ultra-lightweight High Power Generation System (HPGS) that can generate up to 175 kilowatts more power than is currently available to the International Space Station. When combined with electric propulsion, FAST will form the foundation for future self-deployed, high-mobility spacecraft to perform ultra-high-power communications, space radar, satellite transfer and servicing missions.
During a recent ceremony at Boeings El Segundo, Calif. facility, Bal Seal was recognized for outstanding performance during Phase I of the program, which focused on the development of lightweight, high-powered solar arrays for spacecraft.
According to Boeing FAST program manager Tom Kessler, Bal Seals collaborative input into the design of electro-mechanical elements within the solar arrays contributed significantly to Phase I work of the program.
Bal Seal Engineering VP Hugh Cook, who accepted the award on behalf of team members
Robert Castillo, Daniel Poon and Kyle Smith, called it an important milestone in his companys relationship with Boeing.
Not only does this award stand as recognition for the hard work our engineering team has invested in the program, said Cook, it also symbolizes Boeings understanding and appreciation of the fact that Bal Seal brings a valuable, innovative perspective to the partnership. And its another example of how we can help our customers make the kind of technological advances that keep them on the cutting edge.
According to Cook, engineers from Bal Seal and Boeing worked together to design devices that perform mechanical connecting and electrical conducting functions inside the arrays that gather solar energy to power spacecraft. The devices employ Bal Seals canted-coil spring technology to reduce weight and boost performance, he said.
In its presentation of the supplier award, Kessler cited Bal Seals outstanding support and acknowledged the dedication and enthusiasm of individual Bal Seal engineering team members. The two companies will continue working together during the second phase of the program.
About Bal Seal Engineering, Inc.
Bal Seal Engineering, Inc. (balseal.com) is a global provider of custom-engineered sealing, conducting, connecting and shielding solutions for aerospace applications. Products include Bal Seal, Bal Shield and Bal Contact solutions, all of which employ unique canted-coil spring technology for enhanced performance and reliability.

From the same job posting:
Relaxed, independent, academic atmosphere
Ability to work under pressure
I have been paying attention to this sort of thing. I am not looking for work, especially, but I do read the postings to see how various parts of the economy appear to be doing. New York City seems to get a lot of openings, and I have only ever seen a couple for Chicago (the real Chicago, not Andy, whom I would love to work for but is entirely too far away).
Two groups are evident: Headhunters completely unfamiliar with the job they need to fill, and people trying to convince other people that the crappy and thankless job they have to fill is attractive.
The job I took those bits from sounds like a cool job, and it is the "relaxed" portion, which is apparently not true according to the rest of the description, that would make it unattractive.
Some job postings remind me of The Apartment---they expect you to devote the whole of your life, and even your soul, to work that you would not do if you did not need to pay rent and buy food. Those sorts used to be the ones that offered stock options and equity before those terms became dirty words and people became more interested in their next paycheck rather than selling short.
What would a realistic job posting look like?
Provide software support for database driven website. Project leader is a testing fanatic and will constantly evaluate the quality of your software. The system administrator does not like users much, but you will get used to him after a couple of months. The team is notoriously underfunded, although we do find the money for nice chairs and fancy cubicle walls. Upper management has completely unrealistic expectations and we try to meet them even if it means panicing instead of creating good code. Although we want a Perl programmer, you will end up dealing mostly with PHP, C, and Java, and although we want a linux person, most of our stuff is on Windows and we see no reason to change that.
Required skills:
know Perl
6 years Java

Community Health Education & Simulation Center (CHESC)
The Northwest Hospital Community Health Education & Simulation Center (CHESC) opened in 2009 and provides a centralized, hands-on venue for health education and training. The center offers customized classes to healthcare professionals, students and community members alike.
In addition to traditional educational offerings, the CHESC uses high-tech simulation mannequins and other state-of-the art technology to help healthcare providers, emergency personnel, community healthcare workers and other practitioners to advance their ability to perform complex medical procedures and life-saving techniques.
The center's computerized, life-size mannequins replicate real-life medical scenarios. Much more than simple mannequins, these simulators breathe, bleed, cough and cry. They can be programmed to respond appropriately to changes in environment and medical interventions administered by simulation participants. The CHESC Sim Center can recreate almost any medical situation, creating valuable learning and practice opportunities.
The CHESC has two full simulation suites and five classrooms. We have the capacity to create and/or perform simulations for a wide variety of medical conditions. The Center is often used to strengthen teamwork and interdisciplinary care coordination.
True to the Center's original intent, we continue to offer classes to both healthcare professionals and the general public. We are proud of our annual school nurse conference with participants from school districts across the state.
Recently the CHESC has collaborated with professional videography and specialty health education organizations as a film location for health professional training videos. We are open to exploring how our simulation center can assist other organizations in incorporating simulation into your clinical education program.
The goal of the Community Health Education & Simulation Center is to:
- Train and retain healthcare professionals to help reduce the current critical shortage of health practitioners
- Improve the ability of community emergency medical services personnel to respond to life-threatening situations with life-saving procedures
- Help Northwest Hospital provide continuing nursing and medical education for ongoing staff certification
- Provide greater health education opportunities for the community through ongoing simulations and classes
- Ensure patient safety to help strengthen effective communication and reduce medical errors among health workers
The CHESC was funded by grants from the federal government, as well as donations from the Norcliffe Foundation and the Norman Archibald Charitable Foundation.

Unlock employee engagementEmployee Engagementemployees
One of the best parts of my job is working with leaders to engage their employees. While the engagement buzzword has launched thousands of books, conferences and employee surveys, there are simple techniques you can do today to engage yourself and your employees.
You already know what engagement looks like. It's the extra effort your employees invest to make their team and company a success. It's the individuals who go out of their way to help their teammates in a jam or fix a nagging problem; it's a smile at the end of a long day. Simply, it's what employees or teams do to make everything go a little better for each other, their customers and their communities.

Dogs that sniff out Chinese drywall may be cheaper inspection option
Until now, inspectors looking for tainted Chinese drywall had to tear apart houses to detect the problem. But now man's best friend can help sniff out the problem, minimizing damage to the home. Anthony Gimenez of Professional Building Inspectors in Manatee County teamed up last year with the Von Asgard K9 Center in Myakka City to form the K9 Detection Service. Since dogs were already being used to find explosives and narcotics, Gimenez suspected they could be trained to detect drywall problems. "I was looking for a non-destructive, cost-effective method to help our clients determine whether they have Chinese drywall or not," Gimenez said. To show what the dogs can do, trainer Jeremiah Comes and a German Shepherd named Shadow visited a Sun City Center home already known to have the contaminated drywall.Shadow sniffed along the walls, tail wagging. Suddenly, he sat and waited for his reward, a signal that he has found what he's looking for. Comes said the scent is strongest in electrical outlets. "The sockets have fresh cut drywall inside of it and that's the best place for my dog to stick his nose in and smell the odor," Comes said. Comes trains his dogs with toys permeated with the scent of compounds found in Chinese drywall. In Shadow's case, detecting defective drywall has become an obsession. "That's all he does. I can't even play ball with him anymore, all the wants is to find drywall," Comes laughed. Gimenez said using dogs eliminates the need to tear a house apart just to find contamination. "Not all the walls in the homes are built with Chinese drywall," Gimenez said. The home's owner, Millie Ballard, said four separate inspectors confirmed the faulty drywall. But not all cases are as clear cut and Ballard said that's where the doggie-detection approach might have an edge. "I think the people who've been told the homes are negative for toxic drywall, the dogs might find a few boards or sheets of drywall in other parts of their homes," Ballard said. K9 Detection Services charges $390 per Chinese drywall inspection. By comparison, to do a visual inspection and tear down drywall costs about $1,500, Gimenez said. Sending samples to a lab can cost up to $3,000. So far the company has seven dogs in service with several more in training. Gimenez is expecting a busy year ahead. "I think it's much bigger than we all realize. It seems to continue to grow, and we're continually finding new developments that have it," he said. To learn more about Chinese drywall sniffing dogs, watch News Channel 8 tonight at 11.

Liz's Top Seven ways to use boiled eggs
You know the drill. Easter is over. Chocolate bunnies sit in their baskets devoid of ears, pieces of shiny fake green grass are strewn from one end of the house to the other, and no fewer than two dozen eggs bide their time in the refrigerator, asking themselves but one thing:
"Will we be eaten? Or tossed to the curb with all that shiny fake green grass?"
Which is where I make a confession. As much as I love boiled eggs and deviled eggs, I have a real problem eating them after they've been dyed for Easter. Oh, sure. I know the dye is OK to eat, but there's something about seeing that cooked white turned every color of the rainbow that just doesn't sit well with me. Am I alone on this?
Anyway, I digress. Because a refrigerator full of eggs is opportunity in the making! So many things to do with those boiled eggs. So few hours in the day… So instead of me grumbling about the yucky color on the egg whites, let's operate on the waste-not,-want-not premise – at least for today. May I present…
Liz's Top Seven ways to use boiled eggs
- Deviled – or dressed – eggs. Mom often asks me to bring dressed eggs for family dinners. Does that mean the other eggs are naked? Or is it a throw back to the old saying "dressed for dinner"? Anywho, cut the eggs in half, remove the yolks, mix some mayo, a pinch of sugar, maybe a dash of mustard, salt, pepper and paprika with the egg yolks and fill the egg white halves. When I'm feeling really creative, I put the yolk mix in a plastic baggie, cut off a corner of the bag, and pipe the mixture into the egg whites. Clearly, that doesn't happen very often, but it sure looks good when it does.
- Egg salad. As far as I'm concerned, this is another way of saying easy deviled eggs. While this one may be a given, I also think it is often overlooked as an easy use for boiled eggs. It can be as simple as chopping up the eggs and throwing in a little mayo, salt and pepper. Or you can kick it up a few notches with some tuna, olives, capers, onions or whatever floats your boat. Can be eaten on bread or toast, or straight out of the bowl.
- Spinach salad. What better way to go healthy than by throwing chopped or sliced boiled eggs on a mound of fresh spinach? Add some onion, mushrooms, and crumbled bacon, and whip up a nice hot bacon dressing. Dinner is served.
- Cobb salad. If you've never eaten a cobb salad, here's a pretty traditional recipe to check out.
- Potato salad. What is more American than a good potato salad? Boil a few potatoes, add some mayo, pickle relish, onion, salt and pepper and fold in a few chopped boiled eggs. Summer comfort food, if you ask me.
- Giblet gravy. A hands-down favorite of mine. Ladle over fried chicken, turkey, pork chops or mashed potatoes.
- Easy chicken-rice casserole, courtesy of Cooks.com:
- 3 c. cooked chicken
- 3 1/2 c. cooked rice loosely, tossed
- 2 c. diced celery
- 2 cans cream of chicken soup
- 2 tbsp. chopped onion
- 2 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1 1/2 c. mayonnaise
- 1/2 c. water
- 5 sliced hard-boiled eggs (optional)
Mix chicken, rice, celery, cream of chicken soup, onion and lemon juice. Add mayonnaise which has been mixed with water. Add hard-boiled eggs. Fold all together gently and place in 9 x 13 greased pan. Make the day ahead. Take out 1 hour before baking. Top with crushed barbecue or regular crushed potato chips.
Bake at 375°F for 45 to 60 minutes. Don't overcook.
Enjoy your boiled egg leftovers!

A transgender teenager says a McDonald's restaurant in Florida discriminated against her when managers refused to interview her for a job, according to a complaint filed Monday.
Zikerria Bellamy, 17, said two managers at an Orlando restaurant wouldn't give her an interview on two separate occasions in July. Later, she said a manager left her a voice mail, using a gay slur to let her know she wouldn't be hired.
A spokeswoman for the local restaurant, Allison Garrett, said in a statement the employee who left the voice mail "acted outside the scope of his authority and was not responsible for hiring." He no longer works at the restaurant.
McDonald's "has a zero tolerance policy prohibiting discrimination or harassment in the restaurant," the statement said.
Bellamy is a male who has been living as a female for about the past six years. She said she completed a job application online, then was called to the store for an interview. When one manager refused to see her, she called later and was granted an interview with another manager.
"He began to laugh at me once he saw me," said Bellamy, who wore a suit to the interview. "He said, 'Oh, I can't interview you today. I'm busy.'"
One of the managers also left her a voice mail saying: "We do not hire f------."

Florida-based drones to scan for smugglers
Predator aircraft drones will soon be scanning U.S. waters for smugglers.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection says it's buying two Predator B aircraft for sea patrols. The models to be rolled out Monday at the manufacturer's plant in Palmdale have radar sensors that can detect boats.
Agency officials say one will be tested in the Caribbean, with a base in Cape Canaveral, but it could be used to aid patrols in the San Diego area.
Another will be based in Corpus Christi, Texas, for use in the Gulf of Mexico.
The remote-controlled drones will look for smugglers of drugs and illegal immigrants. A different Predator version is used for land patrols in Arizona and North Dakota.
3 governors to meet, discuss water rights
The governors of Georgia, Florida and Alabama have agreed to meet Dec. 15 in a fresh effort to resolve their long-standing feud over water rights.
The meeting in Montgomery, Ala., will be the first face-to-face water talks between the three governors — Sonny Perdue of Georgia, Charlie Crist of Florida, and Bob Riley of Alabama — in two years.
The decades-old, three-state water fight has taken on a new urgency for Georgia after a federal judge in July ruled the state has few legal rights to Lake Lanier, the main water supply for metro Atlanta. The judge gave the states and Congress until 2012 to reach an agreement. Otherwise, Atlanta will see its water supply from Lake Lanier reduced dramatically.
Georgia is also appealing the judge's ruling.
2 children injured in parade float collapse
Two children were injured after a float collapsed during a Christmas parade in Central Florida.
The incident happened in Leesburg Saturday evening as the float slowed in front of a judging area. Up to 40 children and adults were on the float when the scaffolding gave way.

The Setup
After my review of the AMD Radeon HD 5870 graphics card last month that featured a heavy dose of information and videos about AMD's new Eyefinity technology, the one single request I have received the most is for performance results using these games and a multi-monitor configuration. Well I decided to spend some time this week doing just that, so check out our results!
Introduction and Specifications
Now that the champagne has been uncorked on the the LGA 1156, we can continue to show some love to what originally brought Intel all the acclaim and accolades they received before the new LGA 1156 CPUs arrived -- the LGA 1366 i7 processors and X58 chipset. One of the most popular hardcore overclocking boards available for the LGA 1366 platform is Gigabyte's GA-EX58-Extreme motherboard.
Introduction and Features
Silverstone has really been one of the premier PC enclosure manufacturers for several years now and they always seem to be finding different ways to handle all types of platforms from ATX, micro ATX, and even mini ATX cases. Their newest creation is the RV02, which builds upon the original Raven case, but adds a few new wrinkles to its design and construction. The new Raven 2 is smaller, lighter, and Silverstone claims it outperforms the original Raven.
A week's worth of thoughts on NVIDIA
We spent last week at the NVIDIA GPU Technology Conference learning about more than just the new GPU architecture NVIDIA was showcasing. In this editorial we take a look at where NVIDIA stands today, what you can expect from them in the near future and how the company plans to hold on to gamers' hearts while striving to build a new market in the GPU computing world.
GT300? Yes please
NVIDIA is revealing details today about its upcoming GPU architecture, codenamed Fermi. This new design offers a lot of great new advancements for GPU computing as well as gaming, though details on performance are still pretty slim. The GPU will implement 512 CUDA cores on a 3.0 billion transistor die. That got your interest up?
Evergreen makes its second appearance
Last week we saw the introduction of AMD's new Evergreen architecture with the release of the Radeon HD 5870 graphics card and we follow that up today with the lower cost variant, the Radeon HD 5850. This card still has 1GB of memory and requires a pair of 6-pin power connectors, but for the money, it looks like the card to beat.
Clarkdale makes its debut
Intel took some time to preview its upcoming Westmere processors, Clarkdale and Arrandale, during this past week at the Intel Developer Forum. The new CPUs will combine a dual-core Nehalem-based design with on-chip integrated graphics to create a high-performance, low power and low cost CPU for the mainstream PC user. Stop in to see if you will be picking one of these up this winter.
Introduction and Features
We've evaluated numerous CPU coolers from a variety of established vendors that include the likes of Zalman, CoolerMaster, and Thermalright. But, today we are treading off the beaten path a bit to review a CPU cooler from a relatively unknown entity called Prolimatech. This Taiwan-based company was founded in 2008 and their one and only CPU cooler that supports Intel's LGA 1366 socket is dubbed the Megahalem.
A new GPU for a new DirectX
AMD is making a splash again with another new GPU that aims to take NVIDIA head on and force a shift in the graphics card market. The Radeon HD 5870, previously known as the Evergreen architecture, offers up twice as many shader processors as the HD 4800-series of cards at higher clock speeds. And the new AMD Eyefinity technology is something you have to see to understand!
Lucid makes quite a showing
Last year we met a darling new company by the name of LucidLogix, or just Lucid, that promised to deliver "near linear scaling" on multi-GPU performance without the requirements of SLI or CrossFire. We have finally seen the technology in action on a production level motherboard coming from MSI and even see an AMD and NVIDIA graphics card share the workload!
Corsair enters yet another market
Corsair is known for high quality and enthusiast friendly memory products and now the company is attempting to bring that mindset to the world of computer cases. The Obsidian 800D is a big case that has plenty of room for water cooling, implements a classy cable management system and even adds a 4 drive hot-swap SATA bay.
A GTX By Any Other Name...
Before AMD unleashes their latest foray into the graphics market, we have the chance to look at the current fastest, single GPU video card around. MSI has differentiated their product with a unique (and surprisingly effecting) cooler which adds to the value of their offering. While we can't prognosticate about how well it will fare against upcoming products, we can see how well it performs against what is available today.
Propus to the Rescue
The latest quad cores are relatively tiny as compared to their older brothers and the competition from Intel. While these are not barn burners when it comes to performance, AMD is hoping that the combination of available performance and budget pricing will prove to be irresistible to users and OEMs alike.
Lynnfield Reaches Retail
Intel's Lynnfield processors have been getting a lot of attention recently but one SKU left out of the parade has been the Core i7-860. Coming in just a bit higher than the Core i5-750, the i7-860 adds support for HyperThreading technology and thus should see noticeable improvements in certain applications. We take the new CPU for a spin in our benchmark suite and judge it on performance-per-watt and performance-per-dollar.
Introduction and Features
A lot of PC cases and enclosures made from steel, aluminum, and acrylic pass by my test bench. The modding community has also used other materials like carbon fiber to create custom cases that met their specific needs. But, I can't think of one vendor that creates production cases using wood until nMediaPC gave us a call about their HTPC 8000 case. nMediaPC dubs their HTPC 8000 as the world's first wooden HTPC case, and to my knowledge I think they are right. Let's see if this organic creation can start a new trend in the HTPC case market.
2nd Generation Ultra-Portable
The Tigris and "Codename formerly known as Congo" are two new notebook platforms that aim for the mainstream and ultra-portable marketplaces. While we have seen these products before, the combination of tuning and manufacturing changes allows them to fit into the mobile market. The extra boost could give AMD a nice set of weapons to further improve their marketshare in the mobile space.
ASUS has more than a few P55 offerings...
Even though the P55 motherboards are out and available, I happen to have had this video sitting here for a couple of days and before we can get the full board reviews ready, I decided I would share our video previews of both the P7P55D Premium and Maximus III Formula motherboards. Stop in and see how these high-end offerings from ASUS will impress you and prep you for your new Lynnfield system.
Lynnfield Architecture
Today Intel is officially releasing the Lynnfield processor that many of us have been waiting for since the release of Nehalem last year. This time around we find better frequency scaling, lower prices and performance that will simply blow you away for the money and power it will cost you to run it. Intel's dominance simply can't be debated anymore.
Western Digital brings 7200RPM to two of their product lines in the form of 2TB models. These drives come backed with some exciting new technology that promises to increase performance beyond that of a simple spindle speed increase. In this review we will explore these new features and see their impact on real world performance.
P55s are getting cheaper already
MSI is next on the list of companies that have sent us P55 motherboards in preparation for the upcoming Lynnfield processor launch. The P55-GD65 isn't the highest end offering from the company but it packs a lot of punch for a sub-$160 motherboard due out in just a matter of days!

"I've known I wanted to be a teacher since I was in Kindergarten," says Jessica. "When I met with my guidance counselor, we decided that Albertus Magnus was a great fit.
Jessica knew exactly what she was looking for in a college. "Besides the obviously beautiful campus, it was really important for me to attend a college where I could get to know my professors and my classmates," she says. "I truly enjoy the academic environment here. The small environment is perfect for my learning style."
Jessica had an English class with Dr. Cole that required an in-class presentation. "Dr. Cole called me after I did the presentation to tell me how much she enjoyed it. It made me feel accomplished and proud of my work," she says.
Jessica's favorite class was Orientation to Schools that she took during her first year. "I had the opportunity to go into a local classroom and observe the teacher's methods and her interaction with the students."
Outside of class, Jessica has emerged as one of Albertus Magnus College's student leaders. "I have a great connection to the campus life here," she says. "I work on my photography when I have free time. I am also the Historian and Secretary of the Student Government Association and help plan and organize events on campus." Jessica also plans to be a Resident Assistant in Dominican Hall this year.
"There is just such a great community feel here," she says. "I wouldn't change a thing. I like our small community."

Fort Bragg soldier dies in motorcycle wreck
Posted August 13, 2016
Updated August 14, 2016
Fayetteville, N.C. — A 22-year-old soldier at Fort Bragg died early Saturday after a motorcycle wreck on Martin Luther King Jr. Freeway in Fayetteville, police said.
The wreck happened at about 1:15 a.m. between Robeson and Gillespie streets when Jesus Rios, of the 6600 block of Vaughn Road, lost control of his motorcycle and crashed. Rios was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, where he later died.
Rios was an automated logistical specialist assigned to 1st Attack Reconnaissance Battalion of the 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade.
"We are deeply saddened by the loss of a valued member of our team," said Lieutenant Colonel Shane Finison, commander of the 1st Attack Reconnaissance Battalion. "Rios was a stellar trooper. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends during this difficult time."
Rios was from Oklahoma and joined the Army in June 2013. He attended basic combat training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina before he was stationed at Fort Bragg.
Rios deployed to Afghanistan for five months in 2014. His awards and decorations include the Army Commendation Medal, the Afghanistan Campaign Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Global War on Terror Service Medal and the Army Service Ribbon.
Police said a silver Cadillac sedan was in the area at the time of the crash, and authorities are asking the driver of that car or anyone inside it contact them.
An investigation of the crash is ongoing. Anyone with information about it should call the Fayetteville Police Department at 910-433-1885 or Crime Stoppers at 910-483-8477.

BOSTON ( TheStreet) -- It's Thanksgiving week, so that means you're almost guaranteed at least 50 Thanksgiving-related puns from the NFL morning shows on Thursday and Sunday. Here's mine: I hope my picks against the spread this week don't end up being turkeys.After going 3-2 in Week 11, my record currently stands at 19-29 with two ties, good for a miserable winning percentage of 38% in the 40 games I've picked so far. I ended up with two very bad beats last weekend. The first came when the Jacksonville Jaguars were unable to score against the Cleveland Browns on first and goal from the 2-yard line with about 45 seconds to go. The second was after Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was injured early in the team's game against the Oakland Raiders, a key loss that sank the Vikings in a fairly close game.

Many Challenges
"The military has an extensive fleet of vehicles," says Collins. "So we had to design our system to account for a large number of vehicle model types, as well as a large number of variations within a model. That was a major challenge for us." Collins also understood that for the military to take advantage of the system's efficiency, rapid creation of 2D and 3D models was essential. "The vision and robot should share a common coordinate frame so that interpretation of data provided by the vision system is obvious and intuitive to the robot programmer. We managed to optimize the calibration step to make it easy, fast and automatic." With the VisionHub and Matrox Iris smart camera, the calibration process takes only a few minutes, and can be performed without the use of external instrumentation such as theodolites (an optical metrology tool). Before VisionHub, the creation of the 2D and 3D models could take as long as several hours, but after system implementation, the task can be performed in minutes, Collins says.
3-D Capability, Competitive Prices
VSI realized a number of its design goals by choosing the Matrox Iris smart camera platform. First, the company believes that their system provides 3D capability at a very competitive market price. "The Matrox smart cameras are an excellent value proposition," says Collins. "They provide quality imaging capability, and the ability to add proprietary value-added algorithms in a very straightforward way. And we can have this at a price point much lower than other cameras that we typically work with." The current plan is to incorporate the vision system into one of the military depot's proposed automated painting systems. VSI will also be releasing the product for non-military applications.

When a portable classroom became available for an office, Fox Chapel Middle School seventh-grade guidance counselor Elena Clemente jumped at the opportunity. Then she took a look at it. "When I walked in and saw it, it looked so blah and I had to do something with it," she said. She began looking for donations and was able to redo the office, in an, um, interesting style. When she ran out of one color of donated paint, she moved to the next. The room has four different colored walls.
But she has a theme. It's sort of Key West-like.
"I wanted to have a more kid-friendly place for them," Clemente said. When students are called to guidance, it looks like they're in trouble, she explained. "We're trying to keep them out of trouble."
The decor includes purple, blue, aqua and pink walls. There are hot pink plastic lounge chairs and a couple of beanbag chairs. There is a palm tree with flowers and colored lights on it. A window is framed in blue lights and a signed Jason Taylor Miami Dolphins jersey hangs in it.
Other decorations are scattered around the room: Puppets, a parrot, a green and yellow red-toed frog, a flamingo, a big stuffed tiger and a fiber-optic butterfly.
A live creature, Missy Sue, a pug, is trained to provide comfort. "All therapy dogs are supposed to do just this," said eighth-grade guidance counselor Cathy Mara. "Just sit."
Mara is a Walden University intern who is also substituting for counselor Ana Ridenour, who is on maternity leave. Missy Sue, Mara said, is from Therapy Dogs International.
The revamping of the guidance office was Clemente's way of creating a place where students feel comfortable when they come for counseling and/or group therapy. "No one ever wants to leave," Mara said. "We offer them an oasis."
Dakota Neumann, 13, is an eighth-grader who helped with the transformation over the summer. He picked up bugs and cleaned out cobwebs. "I helped paint some of it," he said.
Dakota's help benefits him directly. He is an office aide during third period each day. He also comes by on Wednesdays during his lunchtime for grief counseling, having lost his father last spring.
Jacob Tures, 14, also an eighth-grader, said the office is relaxing. "I like the color of the wall," he said, indicating the purple one.
John Schlicher visits the colorful room regularly from the district office to provide school social services. He covers Fox Chapel and three other schools and was at Fox Chapel recently for a therapy session. "I facilitate the group here on anger," he said.
"This room makes (students) more comfortable and at ease," he said. "They could be angry and come into this room and become calm. And if they're not calm, it's easier to calm them. I think all schools should have a room like this."
That observation validates Clemente's efforts, especially since the redecorating went on during the summer while both principal Ray Pinder and assistant principal Royce Green were on vacation, but she says, "It just happened that way."
It's okay with Pinder, though, since it reminds him of the place where he was born. "I'm a little endeared to it, because it has that Key West theme," he said. "We needed an area here, a calm place, where students could go. Middle school kids respond to things that are different, things unique. I think it's going to work out good for kids."

The altitude of the Mountain Shu scenic spot is 284 meters. The scenes there are charming and gentle and it is beautiful throughout all four seasons. Mountain Shu is absorbing for those green and luxuriant pines and cypresses and exotic flowers and rare herbs. It is more attractive after some new scenes appear around the foot of the mountain, such as, an artificial lake with a surface area of more than 20,000 mu, a Memorial Mausoleum to the martyrs which covers 400 mu, a botanical garden and vacation village with an area of 70 hectares, the base of flowers and plantlet and Hefei Wildlife Park which cover an area of more than 80 hectares, the Mountain Shu Gallery which is 370 meters long and takes its first place in Anhui, the Sheng Xiao (Sheng Xiao refers to those twelve animals symbolizing the Twelve Branches used to designate years, according to lunar calendar) Park, Peterbo Entertainment Center for shooting paint balls, and those Cherry Garden, Chinese Rose Garden and Maple Woods which create scenes out of plants. Hefei high and new technology industrial development zone lies on the east of Mountain Shu and various modern constructions there add the rhythm of the new age to the scenic spot.
