A 2 Dimensional Pde For Discrete Asian Options
This paper presents a new method for the pricing of discrete Asian options when assuming a deterministic volatility as specified in Dupire (1993). Using a homogeneity property, we show how to reduce an n+1 dimensional problem to a 2 dimensional one. Previous research has been intensively focussing on continuous time Asian options using Black Scholes assumptions. However, traded Asian options are based on a discrete time sampling and can exhibit a pronounced volatility smile. Previous works which have tried to find approached closed forms have the major drawback to be not extendable to more complex volatility model, like the Dupire model, as well as to American type options: Vorst (1992), Geman and Yor (1993), Turnbull and Wakeman (1991), Levy (1992), Jacques (1995), Zhang (1997) and Milevsky and Posner (1998). Works which have focussed at numerical methods do not take into account volatility smile and focus at continuous Asian options: Kemma and Vorst (1990), Hull and White (1993), Caverhill and Clewlow (1990), Benhamou (1999), Roger and Shi (1995), He and Takahashi (1996), Alziary et al. (1997) and Zvan et al. (1998). Our paper oñers a solution to the pricing of discrete Asian options with volatility smile. As suggested by Dupire (1993), we assume a volatility function of time and the underlying so as to take the volatility smile into account. Assuming furthermore that our volatility function can be written as a function of the normalized underlying, we prove that the option price is homogeneous in the underlying price and the strike. By means of this property, we show how to reduce the numerical problem of a discrete Asian options with n fixing dates, which normally should be computed as an n +1 dimensional problem (n fixings and the time) to a 2 dimensional problem. This is of considerable interest for the efficient computation of discrete Asian options. This generalizes to discrete Asian options the dimension reduction found for continuous Asian options by Rogers and Shi (1995). We derive a PDE for the computation of the Asian option and solve it with the standard Crank Nicholson method. Because of the dimension reduction, we need to interpolate our conditional price at each fixing dates. Diñerent methods of interpolation are examined. The rest of the article focuses at numerical specification of our finite difference (grid boundaries, time and space steps) as well as an extension to the case of non proportional discrete dividends, using a jump condition. We compare our result with a Quasi Monte Carlo simulation based on Sobol sequences. Our simulations show us interesting results about the delta hedge and its jump over fixing dates.

Yesterday (7/14) was truly amazing. I didn't know if people would care, much less donate, to create an LGBT scholarship in my hometown, but I was hopeful. In less than a day, we EXCEEDED the initial goal, raising over $3000 for the Courage Scholarship. But I'm not finished and hope you will help us build on the momentum. I would like to raise $12,000 — $1,000 for each month the Commission voted to "mourn" equality. This would support more Courage Scholarships AND create a statewide award open to all Missouri students working to change hearts and minds in their communities.
This is about more than a flag or even scholarships. It's about sending a message of love and acceptance to drown out hate. And most importantly, it's about making life better for LGBT youth today, not just telling them that, someday, things will get better. For more information about the Courage Scholarship, read below!
Creating the Courage Scholarship for LGBT and Allied Students in Salem, MO
LGBT teens in rural America have many hurdles to overcome in order to live happy, healthy lives. On July 13th, The Salem News reported that county officials voted unanimously to fly flags at government buildings at half-staff once a month for the next year to protest, "the U.S. high court's stamp of approval of what God speaks of as an abomination." This isn't just about the flag; it tells the community that LGBT people do not deserve equal rights and dignity. This discriminatory, hateful message is harmful and hurtful to LGBT people and our straight allies, but it especially has the potential to negatively impact LGBT youth in the community. And that's why need to show LGBT youth in Salem that we have their back, even if many back home do not.
Your donation will fund the annual Courage Scholarship that will acknowledge, affirm, and reward the courage of graduating seniors at Salem High School who have demonstrated their willingness or show great potential to work for change in their community that advances the lives of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) people and other groups that have historically faced discrimination and been pushed to the margins. It takes courage to go against the grain, to stand up for what you believe when it differs from your community, and to live authentically in the face of adversity and hostility. These seemingly small acts are not easy but have the power to change the world one heart and one mind at a time.
Your donation will support these courageous students and help them fund their college education. While LGBT students and straight allies who are working to improve the lives of LGBT people are strongly encourage to apply for the scholarship, all students who work to advance the lives of people of color, religious minorities, women, immigrants, and people with disabilities will be considered, as the advancement and inclusion of any marginalized group is essential to the empowerment of all who have been marginalized.
Please message Jacob if you have questions or would like to support this effort.


text: It was just about a year ago that defender Seth Sinovic was trying to earn a job with Real Salt Lake.Now, he's trying to beat it.Having failed to earn a job with RSL as a trialist last season, the 25-year-old defender is now a starter along the back line for Sporting KC, the unbeaten and untied team that plays host to RSL at Livestrong Sporting Park on Saturday night. "We were fond of Seth," coach Jason Kreis said. "Thought he was a very solid player."Just not quite solid enough.While RSL was searching at the time as seemingly always for a left back to back up regular starter Chris Wingert, Kreis said the team was "really kind of on the fence" about whether to sign Sinovic, a second-round pick in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft who played collegiately alongside RSL's Chris Schuler at Creighton."Our decision at that time was to allow him to go somewhere else, to see if the opportunity maybe was a little better," Kreis said. "So we said, why don't you go to Kansas City, and let us know how it goes."Answer?Swimmingly.The former New England Revolution draftee has played all 450 minutes so for Sporting, which has allowed just one goal en route to the first 5-0-0 start in regulation (the league once had penalty shootouts to break ties) since the inaugural season of Major League Soccer in 1996. The team has not allowed even a single shot on goal in 245 minutes, a league record."Their need for that position was probably higher than ours," Kreis said. "Seth's a very good player, but he wouldn't be starting for us."

Defaulting on a student loan negatively impacts your credit score. The default indicates a serious delinquency and a history of poor credit management that causes lenders to consider you a greater risk to extend a loan to. Repairing your credit takes a renewed commitment to paying your debts and won't happen overnight. However, you can take some measures that will improve your credit profile more quickly.
Settle Student Debt
The best way to repair your credit is to pay off the loan. Paying the account indicates that you can be counted on to pay what you owe. It also reduces the amount of debt you're responsible for, which boosts your credit score. The sooner the loan is paid off, the sooner it falls off your credit report. Should that not be realistic, you can rehabilitate your federal Federal Direct Loan or Federal Family Education Loan by making nine to 12 consecutive on-time payments. This removes the default status from your loan as reported to credit bureaus.
Correct Mistakes
If the default is being reported in error, you'll need to correct it. Get proof from your school's registrar that you've been attending school on at least a part-time basis to correct attendance errors that could make your bills come due too soon. If you have a deferment or forbearance that isn't being applied, contact your loan servicer with documentation that proves your case. Request that erroneous reporting information be removed from your credit report and get copies of the report from all three major credit bureaus afterward to confirm that occurred. You are entitled to a free credit report each year from each bureau through AnnualCreditReport.com.

BUTTE VALLEY — The frustration continues to build for the Butte College men's soccer team, which remained without anything better than a loss through 13 games when it lost 5-2 to Shasta on Tuesday at Cowan Soccer Stadium.
Rodrigo Serrato and Daniel DeBrita scored for the Roadrunners (0-13, 0-5 Golden Valley Conference), but four first-half goals by the Knights (2-6-5, 2-1-2) made for an insurmountable deficit for a Butte outfit that has now been outscored 73-8 on the year — with the two goals Tuesday representing the Roadrunners' season high.
"Same thing I've seen all year. Too many mistakes to overcome what occurs, and one of the problems is, in many ways, we don't play what we train," Butte coach Larry Nees said. "One of the reasons for it is many of these players are extremely inexperienced at a highly competitive level, and when you're put under pressure, you revert back to old habits, or habits you might not even have, and we do that a lot."
The Knights forced the issue for most of the match, with midfielder B.J. Romac often looking like the best player on the pitch as he controlled the tempo and possession for the visitors. Three good runs of play, facilitated by his heady movements in the center of the Shasta attack, resulted in scores for the Knights. Fulvio Ferreira and Edgar Lupercio struck first ahead of one from Romac himself; one final score right before halftime, a leaping header by Caleb Ikwuagwu, made it 4-0 at the break. The Roadrunners weren't exactly without bite, actually outscoring the Knights in the second half — the first time they've done that all season — but they repeatedly wasted opportunities to break through with an extra touch or four, and Shasta was never under any duress.
Jose Luquin cleaned up a rebound off the crossbar in the second half to round out the Knights' scoring.
"We came out fairly strong, I thought, but I don't think we played as well as we can," Shasta coach Daniel Valdivia said. "Not to take anything from Butte, but we need to play a little better."
With the staggering amount of problems Butte had in the defensive midfield leading to numerous breakaway opportunities (Ikwuagwu should have had another right before halftime, but his slow-rolling, goal-bound strike was kicked off the line by a Butte defender), the offensive inconsistency was magnified.
"The frustration is that soccer's a game played by 10 individuals. You play in small groups, and we have individuals that put pressure on themselves to do too much," Nees said. "Until you can control your brain to calm yourself to make good decisions, that's where the struggle is. That's what we have here. We're not making good decisions."
Valdivia said he felt for the rival Roadrunners, what with Shasta experiencing similar woes a season ago.
"They played well in the second half and really stepped up and I think that's where we didn't play our best," he said. "I'm pleased with the result, just not thrilled with the level of play."

Adam Shankman directs and choreograph, Lon Hoyt conducts, and Zach Woodlee serves as associate director and associate choreographer.
From its stunning Broadway premiere in 1968, HAIR defined the "rock musical," exuberantly celebrating the hippie counterculture, anti-war movement and sexual revolution of the 1960s with a rainbow score of hits - including "Aquarius," "Good Morning Starshine," and "Easy to be Hard" - that have become ingrained in pop culture. Audiences will celebrate this groundbreaking American journey as we "Let the Sunshine In."
HAIR has book and lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado and music by Galt MacDermot. Conceived by James Rado and Gerome Ragni, Hair was the opening production at the new Public Theatre in New York City's East Village in 1967. Hair opened on Broadway, at the Biltmore Theatre, on April 29, 1968 and ran for 1,750 performances, closing on July 1, 1972.

April Come She Will Lyrics Art Garfunkel
Art Garfunkel - April Come She Will SongtextApril come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;
May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again.
June, she'll change her tune,
In restless walks she'll prowl the night;
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight.
August, die she must,
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold;
September I'll remember
A love once new has now grown old.

Hi I have this mole/birthmark its a completely flat brown nevus on my arm probably 1 cm wide and I have always felt insecure about it and finally at 20 ive decided im going to get it removed. I went to a laser clinic and they told me that because its very deep, I would need electrocautery laser to remove it. However, thats going to leave white scarring and and its going to cost 500$. Do you think I should go with electrocautery or have it removed surgically? And what would be the less scarring?
Mole/birthmark Removal, Should I Do It Surgically or with Electrocautery?
Doctor Answers 6
Dark Brown or Black Pigmented Birthmark removal
Dark Brown or Black Pigmented Birthmark removal
The best way to remove this would be direct excision with closure in such a way to leave a minimal scar. . Lasers are generally not used and it is customary to send what was removed to a pathologist for analysis to make sure it is not worrisome.
Mole removal
Complete surgical excision is recommended in this case. It is advised to send the specimen to pathology for complete analysis to confirm whether it is benign or malignant. With this procedure, you will be replacing the lesion with a linear scar.
Nevus removal

Surgery is preferred method for removing nevus (mole)
Surgery is definitely the preferred method to remove a mole (nevus) for two reasons.
One: it works better cosmetically and Two: any mole removed should be sent for pathology to exlude cancer.
A one centimeter mole is larger than usual and warrants pathologic exam - this should be covered by insurance.
Electrosurgical destruction will probably not completely remove it and will generate heat, causing longer healing and usually a less desirable scar.
I have removed thousands of moles and am well versed in all removal techniques.
Surgery vs electrocauterization for birthmarks
The vast majority of moles/birthmarks tend to be benign. A small portion may be malignant (ie, melanoma) or pre-malignant (ie, dysplastic nevus). Although you would be trading your mole for a surgical scar, the major advantage would be complete excision of the birthmark so that there is no chance of developing a malignant, albeit rare, complication. Also, you would be obtaining a firm diagnosis which offers peace of mind. Depending on the source, there is approximately 1-10% risk of developing melanoma or other skin cancer in a given birthmark over a lifetime. This can be a substantial risk for some individuals, who may wish to eliminate the worry from their lives. Electrocautery would destroy the lesion but there are several disadvantages: 1) it may not destroy all microscopic elements of the birthmark, especially the deeper cells located along the hair follicles in the fat layer; 2) it will likely still leave a scar or indentation in the skin; and 3) you will not be able to get a diagnosis if the birthmark looks worrisome. For these reasons, I routinely recommend surgical excision which more reliably addresses the problem and gives us a diagnosis. It also allows the complete elimination of even the deeper parts of the birthmark that are located in the fat layer of skin and can be frequently missed by lasers or electrocautery.
Mole should be removed surgically
Thank you for your question. There are various ways to remove birthmarks, depending on its etiology. For example, a birthmark caused due to a vascular problem needs a completely different treatment than a birthmark such as a mole. More often than not, vascular birthmarks need to have some form of laser treatment. They can require more, but a laser is generally a minimum. Other birthmarks such as a mole, can be excised in the office with relative ease. The size and location will determine the final outcome. A photograph always helps but there is no substitute for and in person physical examination. Make sure you visit with a board certified plastic surgeon for the best outcomes.

Florida Gators to host NCAA baseball regional
Florida will be one of 16 NCAA Baseball regional host sites, the NCAA announced on Sunday.
Four teams will compete at McKethan Stadium in a double-elimination tournament starting on Friday, June 1. The winner will advance to the best-of-three Super Regional to be held the following weekend at eight different sites.
The Gators will learn their opponent, and the other teams that will compete in its regional when the 64-team field for the NCAA Tournament is announced live on ESPNU, Monday at noon.
"We're extremely happy about hosting games in Gainesville," UF head coach Kevin O'Sullivan said. "It is great news for the program, our players, the university and the fans, and we appreciate the support."
No. 2 Florida (42-18) advanced to the semifinals of the SEC Tournament for the third year in a row after tying for third in the league's regular-season standings. The Gators have been among the top-five teams in the national polls all season.
UF will be hosting an NCAA Regional for the fourth consecutive year. Last season, the Gators advanced to the College World Series, where they finished as national runner-up to South Carolina.
The other 15 schools chosen as host sites include: Arizona, Baylor, Florida State, LSU, Miami, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Oregon, Purdue, Rice, South Carolina, Stanford, Texas A&M, UCLA and Virginia.
TURGEON ALL-TOURNEY: Palm Harbor freshman Casey Turgeon was among three Gators named to the SEC All-Tournament team. Junior pitcher/DH Brian Johnson and freshman OF Justin Shafer were also chosen for the All-Tournament team.

Shoot down seasonal sluggishness
Winter is the ultimate energy zapper. With all those warm hearty meals, fluffy blankets and blasting heaters, how could you not want to bunker down? Here's how to beat it.
1. Go for the H2O
Just because it's cold doesn't mean you can cut down on your water intake, especially when air con is blasting.
"Half our blood volume is made up of plasma, which is mostly water," explains Pam Stone, director of education at Blackmores. "So even if you're sightly dehydrated, blood becomes thicker and your heart has to work harder to circulate it."
This causes sluggishness and headaches, but is easily solved by upping your water intake (note: not energy or sports drinks). The latter (high in electrolytes) is particularly pointless, says Stone, because when you're dehydrated, the salt composition in our blood stays the same.
2. Dial M for magnesium
Thanks to savvy marketing, most people reach for soluble B-group vitamin tablets when they need a pick-me-up. But Stone says magnesium is just as effective, especially when it's in pure powder form and can be mixed in a glass of water mentioned above.
"Up to a teaspoon, once a day is good, taken either in the morning or at lunch time."
3. Get some greenery
Slumped over your desk like Quasimodo? If weather permits, go outside, find a green space, sit down and breathe deeply.
Research has found time in nature increases energy levels, boost a person's vitality and makes you feel more animated. Once you return, your performance levels will naturally increase too.
4. Let there be light
No green spaces nearby? No worries, still head outside. In winter, our vitamin D levels naturally decline because we stay indoors and wear more layers.
But research from the UK found a link between vitamin D and mitochondria activity (the batteries to our cells) - it makes our muscles work more efficiently which increases our energy levels.
In winter, the Cancer Council recommends two to three hours of sunlight to the face, arms and hands spread over a week.
5. Change your posture
When you do return to the office, fight the urge to stay stationary for hours at a time. This causes poor posture which generates fatigue.
"When you change your position and put yourself in a more ideal posture, you're taking the tension out of your muscles and stimulating oxygen supply instead," says Marcus Dripps, national president of the Australian Physiotherapy Association.
"This washes out some of the lactic acid and by-products of the muscle activity and sends a message to the brain that you're feeling much better."
6. Follow your nose
We have millions of smell receptors in our nose which shoots information to the brain. If you're feeling less than par, put this mechanism to use with a candle, face spritz, room diffuser, essential oil or cup of tea.
Amy Smith from organic aromatherapy company Perfect Potion recommends citrus scents like lemon, lime or bergamot for their uplifting and refreshing properties, grapefruit to make you feel more cheerful and sweet basil to invigorate. If it's concentration you're after, reach for products containing rosemary, peppermint or cypress.
7. Change up your breakfast
This one is a no-brainer. Winter equals coma-inducing comfort food higher in fat and refined carbs. But if you have a solid, low GI breakfast in the first place, your blood sugar levels will be balanced so you'll be less tempted to reach for a dodgy pick-me-up.
"Low GI Foods like high fibre breakfast cereal, grainy breads, fruit and legumes give you energy for longer, help you feel fuller for longer and help to keep you regular, which adds to your feeling of wellbeing," says accredited practising dietitian Lisa Renn from Body Warfare Nutrition. If you do feel the need to snack though ...
8. Aim for the big O
As in orange. "They are low GI, a good source of dietary fibre and also contain natural sugars (fructose and glucose), which are the preferred source of energy for the brain," says Renn.
In other words, you get a longer-lasting but also completely natural boost.
Can't tell your oranges apart? We'll make it easy: the navel variety are in season now. And if you remember from before (see point 6), the scent of citrus is energising. Double victory.

So I've come to this place about a dozen times because I used to enjoy the vibe here but recently some prejudiced hick - I can only assume the manager - wouldn't let me in with a Canadian driver's license. It was a Wednesday afternoon with like three people in the bar. After 2 years living in D.C. this is the only place that has ever done this. More than the rule, which technically legal or not, the issue at hand was the guy's condescending attitude.
DCLawyer (212) Falls Church, Virginia | April 14, 2016
Visited with GenDV110+OT after a Saturday trip to several VA breweries. I frequent Spacebar all the time, and so had been meaning to come here forever. Somewhat disappointed. Same great regional/national beer lineup, more food options, but the ambiance and service are just not as good for me. All orders are taken at the bar, like at Spacebar, but are done at a specific location at the tiny bar, which causes a long line and eliminates the ability to have any meaningful conversation with staff about new beers, etc. Food was pretty good.
GenDV138 (385) Falls Church, Virginia | February 14, 2016
Been to their sister bar plenty of times but finally got to visit their original bar here on Friday night. Easy two block walk from Clarendon Metro Station. Comfortably busy on a Friday night around 11:30 PM, a few open tables. Slightly different layout from Spacebar but it has the same sort of pub service with all ordering at the bar. Good amount of tables and a small L-shaped bar. Friendly enough service. Good selection of mostly local DC/MD/VA beers with some more obscure VA offerings, pretty similar to Spacebar's list. Food has grilled cheeses like Spacebar but they also have a bit more variety with hot dogs, nachos, chili, cheese steaks, etc. Had the beef cheese steak with jalapeno and bacon, hit the spot on a night of bar crawling. Eggplant fries were a nice change from the usual tots, wish Spacebar had them. Average prices for the area, pretty identical to Spacebar with 4 oz pours adding up. Well worth a stop if you're around this area, would definitely come in more often if Spacebar weren't closer for me.
conway (110) , | October 24, 2014
Unpretentious and inviting atmosphere. Service is friendly and knowledgeable. As everyone mentions, it's very small but I've been fortunate enough to not encounter any huge crowds during my trips here. Tap list rotates frequently and has a nice focus on Virginia beers. Never managed to try the food which I've heard good things about. Prices are great for the area. One of the better spots in the area.
Bamsen78 (266) Sønderborg, Denmark | October 11, 2013
This murdering Confederate den is home to a venue with many more than the twenty taps listed. Weird, teacher-oriented clientel get the confused barman to pour all sorts of stuff to any lay beer lover who may have wandered in by sheer accident. A good sele tion on taps. Have neither tried the bottles nor the food, although the ubiquitous smell of the later makes me sick at times. Will return one day. In the future, someday.
Pivoyager (105) Gaithersburg, Maryland | September 12, 2013
Some could describe Galaxy Hut as a "dive;" however, as one who has spent many a wonderful times in "dives," I would choose words like "homey," "comfortable," or "low key." In any case, this quaint litte spot - hey, "quaint" is another good word - is the antithesis of the usual DC area bar in that it lacks the obnoxious, self-important douchebag and the accompanying phonecow with her incessant, monosyllabic blathering. QH is a quiet place that attracts unpretentious beer lovers who seek a placw to have a pleasant chat, drink some decent beer and relaaaaxxx. Live music at night. Yes, it is small: the size of an apartment living room with a few worn tables and a small L-shape bar that seats about 12 on bolted bar stools. (ala Brickskellar.) The pale blue walls are adorned with the work of local artists. They have about 20 taps with beer priced by the size of the glass you order: ie, pint or goblet. The server was excellent and attentive. The food is your basic pub grub and must be ordered at the bar benaeth the sign. Somewaht like a British pub. That said, they offer tater tots, a comfort food that everyone loves - much like puppies.
JoeinDahlem (351) Berlin, Germany | August 31, 2012
Casual beer-centric rough-and-ready dive well liked by hipsters because the place is actually, casually, hip rather than intentionally, blatantly hipster. There is a difference. Order at the bar, which could have been annoying if the place had been any busier. Smaller pours available, very nice for those stonger beers. Thank you for that. Plenty of oddities on tap, enough to make a night of it. Didn't try the food but it smelled greasy and delicious.
Thorpe429 (58) , Illinois | June 21, 2012
Place is fairly-small with strange artwork all over the walls. More of a dive bar, though not necessarily in a bad way. Bar in the back right corner where you go up to grab your drinks; no servers walking around, but that's not normally too bad since the place is quite small. That does get to be a big issue when it's really crowded, especially in the summer when the patio is open. Selection is quite good for the area. Fun events and a rotating selection. Wide assortment of styles and breweries. Normal value for the area. A nice place that I like to head to every month or two.
tvmatt (1) Virginia | May 22, 2011
I love the huge selection of higher alcohol beers at Galaxy Hut. Friendly staff, good bar food (including lots of vegetarian options), and a constant selection of 20 rotating taps. Capacity has been tight recently, but I think they're expanding the back patio. Come early if you want a seat at the bar. I think they somewhat rotate the beers in themes - had 3 very different barleywines on tap a few weeks ago, and I think 3 or 4 different Double IPAs last night. Dark interior. A nice change from the typical Arlington bars.
kassner (94) Wexford, Pennsylvania | September 23, 2010
My first visit and as advertised, though they don't have that many taps the ones they have are not so common. I am tall but I still could have used a booster chair for the bar. Get some taller stools! I loved the way people lined up to order at the bar. We need a new rating parameter, not ambiance but Character, cause this bar has it.

ZOTAC has today introduced a seemingly-unusual array of ION Upgrade Kits consisting of a small-form-factor motherboard and a ZOTAC ION graphics card.
At present, the Upgrade Kits are available with a choice of four ZOTAC motherboards; the NM10-ITX, NM10-DTX (pictured), nForce 610i-ITX and GeForce 6100-ITX.
So, what exactly do you get? Well, ZOTAC isn't making it as clear as we'd like, but we've put our heads together and concluded that it's ultimately an existing small-form-factor board paired with NVIDIA's second-generation ION GPU on a discrete PCIe x1 graphics card.
The ZOTAC ION card, pictured above, matches NVIDIA's second-generation ION specification, which itself is nigh-on identical to the entry-level GeForce 210. What you're looking at is a 40nm DirectX 10.1 GPU clocked at 589MHz, 16 stream processors clocked at 1,402MHz and 512MB of DDR3 memory connected to a 64-bit interface and operating at an effective 1,580MHz.
It looks as though ZOTAC will only be offering the ION card bundled with its existing boards, as opposed to a standalone add-on, which makes us wonder; why not wait until second-generation ION is integrated onto the board itself?
Furthermore, unless a lack of PCIe x16 slots is a problem, why not just buy a GeForce 210 as your small-form-factor upgrade? There are now passive solutions available, after all.
It's a strange one, and unless ZOTAC has implemented NVIDIA Optimus technology - of which it makes no mention - we're struggling to see the point.

Scientists Have Created the "World's Most Relaxing Song" Which Supposedly Calms You Down Even More Than a Massage [AUDIO]
In England, scientists, sleep therapists and a new age band called Marconi Union have teamed up to create what they believe is 'the world's most relaxing song'.
It's an eight-minute song called "Weightless." They say it's so good at making people fall asleep, that you should NOT listen to it in your car. Their studies found that it relaxed people even more than a MASSAGE.
People who listened were 65% less anxious afterward.
"Weightless" uses slow harmonies, rhythms and bass lines along with mellow guitars, pianos and electronic nature sounds to create a relaxing song that slows the heart rate, reduces blood pressureand lowers stress hormone levels.
The song starts at 60 beats-per-minute and gradually drops to 50. The team behind it says that your heart rate should drop accordingly.
The melody also NEVER repeats, because that would let your brain switch off. This song keeps triggering your brain which, the scientists say, helps it achieve a deeper level of relaxation.
Here's the song:

I would say that just because your one it does not mean your necessarily the other. I for one would have to say I am both. I have hunted here in ny since I turned 12 and for almost twenty years have continued to put in the time and effort to ensure my hunting is successful. However I also served as a 4th echelon armorer in the USMC, and since the day I finished training I have found myself more and more getting into firearms. Everything from target shooting to recently getting into reloading. I have a nice collection of firearms started and intend to get as many as possible as funds allow. Point being, sometimes those who r one may or may not ever get very involved in the other. There is nothing wrong with any choice in this thread, to each there own. What we all need to do is work together and ensure the tools were using continue to be available for our legal needs.

BRADENTON - The South Florida Aquarium prepares to celebrate the 65th birthday of it's favorite citizen. A huge party is planned to celebrate Snooty the Manatee's birthday on Saturday and the public is invited.
Many local environmental agencies will be on hand to teach more about protecting our wild life and natural habitats. There will be games, and activities and entertainment for children and adults. And of course birthday cake.
Snooty was born at the Miami Aquarium July 21, 1948. His mother either died or was released, and ever since his birth Snooty has been raised by humans. He arrived at the South Florida Aquarium in 1949, and he has been here ever since.
He's proved to all who've worked with him that Manatees are much smarter than anyone ever thought. He loves people and when someone comes close, he tries to climb out of his pool to get closer to them.
He is the much-loved mascot of Manatee County. So come out and wish him happy birthday.

Live Commentary
The Villa defence were still shaking after the Chelsea demolition and showed little signs of improvement today. Tottenham were robust in their approach, from defence, through the middle and on the attack. Villas-Boas will be highly impressed with his team as they go into the New Year on a high.
As the whistle blows, the visiting fans roar while the home fans boo, we expected a high-scoring game but all the goals balanced to one side. What a belated Christmas present for Gareth Bale and the Spurs fans after recovering from the stalemate against Stoke and delivering the goods today.
90'Sigurdsson thumps the ball over the ball with an audacious attempt from an unlikely angle.
88'The game has slowed down now as Villa have given up and Tottenham are in cruise control.
85'SubstitutionGareth Bale Andros Townsend
85'Bale finishes his game on the highest of the highest as he makes his way for Andros Townsend.
84'Assist Gylfi Sigurdsson
84'Goal Gareth Bale
Bale earns his first ever hattrick for Spurs after making a clever run into the middle of the box and sliding in on a neat pass from Sigurdsson to poke the ball into the back of the net!
82'Benteke heads a lofted ball down and it falls back into the safe hands of Lloris, who has not had much to worry about today.
80'SubstitutionEmmanuel Adebayor Gylfi Sigurdsson
Adebayor heads for the sidelines after a reasonably quiet game and is replaced by Gylfi Sigurdsson.
77'Game over here for Villa as the travelling faithful are in full voice while many of the home fans head for the exits.
73'Assist Aaron Lennon
73'Goal Gareth Bale
Bale bags his second after controlling Lennon's short pass and calmly sends the ball into the bottom corner!
72'Herd heads Bale's whipped in ball away, preventing Adebayor from connecting with it.
69'Yellow Card Fabian Delph
69'Delph receives yellow after a nasty late challenge on Lennon and the 23-year old doesn't look surprised.
67'SubstitutionMousa Dembele Scott Parker
Scott Parker comes on for Dembele, Villas-Boas gives the England international some much needed game time after his recovery as his side are in a comfortable position.
65'Lambert looks frustrated as Villa waste another attacking move by allowing the ball to go out for a goal kick.
61'Goal Gareth Bale
Bale takes advantage of a swift counter after a Villa attack and finishes as the momentum changes in a matter of seconds following a failed Benteke cross!
58'Assist Kyle Naughton
58'Goal Jermain Defoe
Defoe latches on to a beautiful through ball from Naughton as the England international calmly slots the ball into the back of the net!
57'A golden chance for Benteke goes in vain as the official flags for offside.
53'Walker's corner is again wasted as the ball ends up on the other flank of the pitch for another Spurs throw in.
52'Throw in for Spurs, which Lennon throws long into the penalty area and the ball is headed out for a corner.
48'Villa look much more intent in their approach, with some more width in their formation.
46'SubstitutionAshley Westwood Marc Albrighton
46'Benteke kicks off for Villa, who have brought on Marc Albrighton for Ashley Westwood who gets straight into the action.
The referee blows for half time at Villa Park and it is a surprise that Spurs are not a few ahead after a series of dominating attacks. Villa have been stubborn in their approach of giving Spurs space so they can feed on the counter but this strategy has not been effective for the hosts as they could be 3-0 down if it wasn't for a string of top saves by Brad Guzan.
45'SubstitutionNathan Baker Stephen Ireland
Stephen Ireland comes on for the injured the Nathan Baker as Lambert is forced to play a 4-3-2-1 formation.
45'Villa win their first corner of the game, which is straight into the hands of Lloris.
44'Delph swiftly slips the ball through to Benteke, who is found offside.
40'Another strong save from Guzan from a long-range Bale strike as Spurs continue to pile on the pressure.
38'Late challenge from El Ahmadi on Lennon, who is lucky not to walk away with a card.
37'Vertonghen heads the ball wide for a goal kick after connecting with Bale's corner.
35'Holman unable to finish from a fast-paced counter from Villa as he scuffs his shot wide.
35'Adebayor's left-foot strike is deflected for a corner, which Bake knocks in but is cleared for a throw in.
31'Bale with another corner, which is headed towards goal from Adebayor but falls safely in the hands of Guzan.
29'Walker back on for Spurs as Gallas misplaces his pass for a Villa throw in near the Spurs box.
28'Another respite for Villa, as Walker heads for the touchline to recover from a small knock.
27'The Tottenham midfield are really putting off-the-ball pressure on the Villa back four, forcing them to quickly boot the ball forward.
25'Walker with a corner, headed clear by Baker, Lowton breaks for a counter but Benteke slips as Spurs regain control.
22'Westwood gives the ball away as Defoe slips the ball to Lennon but his attempted cross is cleared by Herd.
20'Benteke and Holman unable to break Gallas and Vertonghen as Spurs build another attack.
18'Villa have rarely had the ball in Spurs' half so far, strong football from Spurs.
15'Delph down after clashing with his own teammate, maybe this is a chance for a Villa regroup.
12'All Spurs so far as they win another free kick that is defended strongly by Villa.
11'Guzan with a great save from Bale's sweet strike as Spurs have another corner.
10'Walker's corner is again dissappointing as the ball is still fought for on the edge of the box.
7'The ball deflects off the wall and goes for a corner, which is taken poorly by Walker and goes for a throw in.
6'Free kick for Spurs as Bale and Defoe lineup to take it from the edge of the box.
4'Goal kick as Bale sends the ball flying after a scuffed hit.
4'Clark hesitantly deals with Bale's short cross as the ball goes out for a corner.
2'Dembele picks out Naughton who is unable to cross it in the box as Villa look to counter.
1'So the Spurs strikers get off this expected thriller under way!
Very interesting to see that Paul Lambert has opted for a very familiar looking defence to that conceded eight against Chelsea - the likes of Lennon, Defoe and Adebayor will be keen to have a real go at the Villa back line.
Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Vertonghen, Gallas, Naughton; Lennon, Dembele, Sandro, Bale; Defoe, Adebayor.
Aston Villa: Guzan; Lowton, Baker, Clark, Herd, Bennett; Westwood, El Ahmadi, Delph; Holman; Benteke.
A very happy Boxing Day to everyone, my name is Sumit and thanks for joining me for the evening clash between Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur.
