CopyCatX 5.0
CopyCatX is an extremely fast and easy-to-use utility for duplicating a volume or cloning a complete drive.
It is perfect for:
Anyone who wants to upgrade to a bigger drive.
Users backing up their systems with the knowledge that the bootability and user privileges will be retained.
Game players who want to make a perfect copy of a drive with all the hidden files duplicated.
Systems administrators who need to deploy multiple drives with identical content.
Forensic experts whose job requires identical copies of the original drive.
Cross-platform users who need to clone a PC or Linux hard drive quickly and easily.
CopyCatX utilizes a method called "device-to-device copying" instead of "file-by-file" copy employed by most backup software. Using device copy enables you to retain every detail of the original drive, from bootablity to the icon locations. Device copy is also a lot faster than the traditional file-by-file backup. The use of device copy normally means the size of the destination volume will be the same as the source volume, but with our resizing technology, we have successfully managed to overcome the primary limitation found in other device copy programs. After the device copying is completed, CopyCatX will automatically expand the volume size to the maximum, so no space is wasted. Even with such features and the performance, CopyCatX is extremely straight-forward to use. CopyCatX's easy-to-use interface was designed for all OS X users. The whole operation can be completed with a few clicks.
CopyCatX is neither file system nor OS dependent; it can quickly and easily make an identical copy of Linux, Windows, Mac, TiVo, or any other drives.

Customers of Amazon Web Services (AWS) can now get free, real-time performance metrics through a site called .
The service from system management software vendor Hyperic is now in beta. It will initially provide metrics for AWS services such as the Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Simple Storage Service (S3) and SimpleDB.
Amazon provides a "service health dashboard," but the site only provides static information about status levels, such as "service is operating normally," "performance issues" and "service disruption."
In contrast, CloudStatus, which is built with Hyperic HQ, the vendor's Web infrastructure management platform, provides more granular reporting in real time, such as ongoing query performance for SimpleDB, or the throughput levels available on S3. The site renders the data in charts to show performance changes over a period of hours or days.
Down the road, Hyperic plans to target other cloud computing platforms, including Google's App Engine, and add more detailed metrics. It also plans to develop subscription-based services, where customers can mash their own application performance data with the CloudStatus information, creating a "global view," according to a spokeswoman for the company.
The service should help AWS customers who are having a problem determine where it lies before calling the support line, according to Stacey Schneider, senior director of marketing.
"We're going to be able to give you that next level of diagnostics and insights so you can connect the dots. Is it my application or is it the cloud?" she said.
Efforts like this will help drive further adoption of the cloud computing model, according to one observer.
"Getting third parties involved in the ecosystem who monitor and manage the cloud is key to moving the concepts forward beyond the early adopters, who are fine with rolling their own management tools," said Michael Cote, an analyst with Redmonk. "As more and more people use a new technology, of course these newer people want add-on services like management."
CloudStatus is a basic monitoring service, "rather than a full fledged layering on-top of EC2 to provide full configuration, updating, and more management," he noted. "It's just a start, but there is a nice degree of sophistication in it."

Zenbook UX302 has a strikingly gorgeous design refined with crystalline glass and classic brushed metallic finish. Amazingly, it is just 15.5mm thick — 14% thinner than the previous Zenbook. Lift the lid and inside is a vibrant 13.3-inch WQHD display that brings images to life and makes everything from browsing the web to working with documents an absolute pleasure. Zenbook UX302 is the Ultrabook™ you'll want with you, wherever you go. Stunning, stylish and extremely scratch-resistant Making an Ultrabook™ as beautiful as Zenbook UX302 means doing a few things differently, beginning with its design. Zenbook UX302 is the first Ultrabook™ in the world with a lid protected by scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 with Native Damage Resistance™. Corning Gorilla Glass 3 has three times the scratch resistance of Gorilla Glass 2 and offers a 40% reduction in the number of highly visible scratches, with a 40% improvement in retained strength if a deep scratch does occur. Just 15.5mm thick and weighing just 1.5kg, Zenbook UX302 won't slow you down when you're on the move. Stay sharp with a Full HD display We see the world in high-definition, so why use anything less on your Zenbook UX302 packs the same 1920 x 1080 pixels into its 13.3-inch display as a big-screen HDTV, so everything looks wonderfully sharp and incredibly detailed. That means you can watch YouTube videos and movies in all their Full HD glory, read web pages with text so crisp it could be printed on a page and see more of the photo you're retouching or the document you're editing. Brighter images, true-to-life colors When we say Zenbook UX302 has a brilliant display, we really mean it. The LED backlight gives an image that's bright enough to see outdoors, while the anti-glare coating eliminates distracting reflections from overhead lighting indoors. With an incredible contrast ratio of 800:1 and 72% color reproduction with 16.7 million colors, IPS display technology delivers pure whites, deep blacks and colors so true to life, looking at a photograph is like looking at the real thing. 178-degree viewing angles mean you always get the perfect view of the screen, too — even if viewing conditions are anything but. Video calls in crystal clarity Zenbook UX302 is the ideal travelling companion, in more ways than one. The built-in 720p HD camera with 30fps video recording means you can keep in touch with family and friends via crystal-clear video calls, and the high-sensitivity image sensor gives great image quality, even in less than perfect light. Accessorize in style Zenbook UX302 is complemented by a set of accessories designed to make the most of its ultra-portable design and ultra-powerful performance. A stylish and hardwearing slipcase helps keep Zenbook UX302 safe when you're on the move, while the multi-voltage power adapter is small enough to slip into a coat pocket. Also included is a USB Ethernet adapter for convenient backup when Wi-Fi isn't available, while Mini DisplayPort and Micro-HDMI ports means you can connect a desktop display with the minimum of fuss. Incredible Touch Technology with a human touch Zenbook UX302 is wonderfully tactile, but that goes well beyond just the feel of its sleek, smooth and durable glass design. Windows 8 is designed with touch in mind and a dedicated ASUS Human Computer Interface team help make it even more intuitive to use with features like a responsive multi-touch display, and a large touch pad with multi-touch support. The backlit keyboard with automatic brightness control also means you'll always have a clear view of the keys, so you can stay productive, even in complete darkness. So whichever way you like to work, Zenbook UX302 has you covered. 10-POINT CAPACITIVE MULTI-TOUCH DISPLAY Touch is such an intuitive way to interact with a computer display, we've been trying to do it for decades — just ask anyone who sells screen-cleaning kits. The good news is that with Zenbook UX302, reaching out to touch the screen is no longer an empty gesture. Its 13.3-inch multi-touch display responds to the slightest touch in just 30ms, so you can tap an icon to open an app, pinch a web page to make the text larger, and swipe across the screen to switch between running applications instantly. Multi-touch makes everything so much easier. Windows 8 input made easy Multi-touch makes it so much easier to get things done, so why save it just for the screen? Zenbook UX302 also has as a multi-touch touchpad, so you can use Windows 8 gestures without lifting your hands from the keyboard for even greater productivity. The touchpad has the same 16:9 aspect ratio as the display for more precise pointer control and we've made it larger than most to leave plenty of room to use Windows 8 gestures. Even the buttons are built into the touchpad surface to give as much space as possible for your fingers to be comfortable. ASUS Smart Gesture Technology lets you pinch zoom in/out, scroll, and tap as it sets a new standard in Windows 8 touch input. Backlit for a better typing experience A keyboard is still the best way to get things done for most people, so we made sure Zenbook UX302 has the best available. Each key is expertly tuned to require just the right amount of force to press and have just the right amount of travel, so it's both quiet and comfortable for two-finger and touch typists alike. And since an Ultrabook™ is designed to be used anywhere, we made the keyboard that way, too. Its backlight adjusts automatically to suit the level of ambient lighting, so you'll always be able to see the keys, even in complete darkness. The Desktop reinvented With a fresh new look and a Start screen that puts your most important apps right beneath your fingertips, Windows 8 is all about you. See at-a-glance updates from family and friends with Live Tiles for your favorite social media services, and switch between apps simply by swiping across the screen or touchpad. New multitasking features make it easy to do two things at once, too. Just snap two apps side-by-side and you can browse web while watching a video, or chat with a colleague while editing a document. Windows 8 means you spend less time searching and more time doing. Incredible Performance All the power you need Zenbook UX302 is a high-performance Ultrabook™ in every sense. Its 4th generation Intel® Core™ processor makes light work of the most demanding tasks, and keeps you entertained with your favorite games and HD video, even when you're on the move. Solid-state storage means applications launch in double-quick time and, together with Super Hybrid Engine II technology, boosts battery life and standby time to stretch out the time between recharges. Three USB 3.0 ports support the latest high-speed storage and can recharge mobile devices in double-quick time, while sophisticated thermal management means Zenbook never loses its cool. Portable power and performance Zenbook UX302 is powered by 4th generation Intel® Core™ processors for seamless multi-tasking performance and outstanding energy efficiency. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology gives a burst of extra speed up to 3GHz when you really need it, while NVIDIA® GeForce GT 730M graphics gives great image quality with the latest games. Solid-state storage for serious speed Zenbook UX302 features a hybrid hard drive with up to 750GB capacity and a 16GB SSD cache for turbo-charged performance. With no moving parts to damage or fail, solid-state storage is extremely durable and its low power requirements mean longer battery life when you're nowhere near a power socket. More importantly, at around four times faster than a traditional hard drive, solid-state storage is blisteringly quick. That means there's less time spent waiting for applications to launch and large files to open, leaving you to spend more time getting things done. Work all day on a single charge Energy-efficient components like the Intel® Core™ processor and solid-state drive help Zenbook UX302 last for up to 8 hours on battery power, so you can get a full day's work done before you need to recharge. Exclusive Super Hybrid Engine II technology can also boost battery life by up to 25% for less demanding tasks like web browsing and watching video, so you can last even longer between trips to the power socket. Always ready when you are No one should have to wait when they want to get something done, which is why Zenbook UX302 wakes from standby in just two seconds. Exclusive Super Hybrid Engine II technology gives up to two weeks' standby time too, and automatically saves all open applications and data to the solid-state drive when the battery drops below 5% charge. So you don't have to worry about always leaving Zenbook UX302 plugged into a power socket just because you're not using it. USB 3.0, the next-generation connection for faster data transfers USB 3.0 is ten times faster than USB 2.0 and with two ports at your disposal, you can save photos, transfer MP3s and open multi-gigabyte video files in a fraction of the time with compatible storage. USB 3.0 has more power for mobile devices, too. Smartphones and tablets recharge in half the time compared to USB 2.0, even when Zenbook UX302 is switched off. USB Charger+ technology lets you charge your devices on-the-go. Designed to never lose its cool An Ultrabook™ as sophisticated as Zenbook UX302 needs a cooling system to match, so we designed our own. Inside the case is a custom heat sink made from beryllium copper alloy, which conducts heat away from hot components much more effectively than ordinary copper. Rather than spoil the sleek lines of Zenbook UX302 with unsightly grilles, warm air then is channeled through a vent below the screen hinge, well away from any part of your body that touches the case. The result is an Ultrabook™ that's much cooler than the competition — in more ways than one. Incredible Sound SonicMaster, because we're serious about sound Creating an Ultrabook™ that looks as incredible as Zenbook UX302 is one thing, but making one that sounds as incredible is something else. The key to our success is our unique SonicMaster technology and a team of audio engineers who expertly balance high-quality audio hardware and professional-grade audio software to ensure the best possible sound quality. We think all the hard work is worth it, and when you hear the wide dynamic range with rich bass and sharp treble that Zenbook UX302 delivers, we know you will, too. SONICMASTER Developed by the ASUS Golden Ear team, SonicMaster combines larger speakers and resonance chambers and precision-tuned software to deliver rich, detailed sound to accompany your movies, music, or games for home-theater levels of entertainment. DISTINCT VOCALS TRUE-TO-LIFE-SURROUND WIDE RANGE POWERFUL OUTPUT CRYSTAL-CLEAR SOUND DEEPER AND RICHER BASS Breaking new barriers for sound Hi-Fi to die for The best sound comes from big speakers, but with something as thin as Zenbook UX302, that presented us with a serious challenge. We overcame it by exploiting the great acoustics of the rigid aluminum case with custom-designed speaker chambers and a pair of powerful speakers that combine to create a sound that's richer and more resonant than you'd think possible. Music, movies and games sound so good on Zenbook UX302, you won't believe your ears. Sound you'll love to listen to Zenbook UX302 takes audio to the next level with MaxxAudio 3 from Waves, recipient of a Technical GRAMMY Award®. Based on the same audio processing technology heard on hit records, major movies and popular video games, MaxxAudio 3 delivers clearer dialog, more detailed bass and state-of-the-art volume leveling for a listening experience you'll just want to sit back and enjoy. MICROPHONE The array mic gives you high-quality audio for video chats and conferences.

Revolutionary New Panoramic HD Video Technology Emulates Human Visual Perspective
13 Nov, 2012, 17:00 GMT
-- PanaCast Uses Custom Hardware & Software, Achieves Real-Time Panoramic HD Video Streaming with 200 Degree Field of View; Mobile, PC & Mac Apps Allow Remote Users to Pan & Zoom with a Swipe
CUPERTINO, California, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Altia Systems™ www.altiasystems.com today exited 3 years of stealth development to announce the company and provide first information on the PanaCast™ video experience for desktop and mobile devices.
PanaCast is a disruptive new video solution that delivers an immersive, real-time panoramic HD video experience to anyone, anywhere with an Internet connection. A 200 degree field of view enables the experience of actually being there, as each participant can - on their own - choose what they want to focus on. This all occurs in real-time with the individual pan and zoom capabilities built into PanaCast software.
"The PanaCast experience is a game changer," said Bob Hagerty, President & CEO, iControl Networks and the former Chairman & CEO of Polycom®. "The unique human panoramic perspective for video users is outstanding – this technology significantly changes the user experience and will transform ease-of-use for Unified Communications and other markets."
Altia Systems has developed patented multi-imager processing technology and novel algorithms implemented in custom silicon to achieve the PanaCast experience. PanaCast is a fully scalable, Cloud-enabled solution that integrates with Apple® iOS™, Google® Android® apps, as well as Microsoft® Windows® and Mac® OS X® software.
Through these apps, remote users may connect to a meeting being broadcast live from a PanaCast system from any location over Wi-Fi or 3G, with full VPN support for privacy and IT compliance. Each remote user can choose their own individual perspective from the stationary camera with the swipe of a finger – or zoom in and out with a finger pinch as well.
"In today's mobile world, we increasingly communicate with people in different locations around the world – conventional video solutions fall far short of natural communication," said Aurangzeb Khan, Co-founder and CEO of Altia Systems.
"Our PanaCast technology, based on the human visual perspective, lets you virtually 'be there from anywhere'. We've developed many innovations through the entire video capture, transport and rendering chain, to deliver vibrant, panoramic and personally controlled video to your device."
Sample videos and more information on PanaCast may be found at the Altia Systems website. The PanaCast solution will ship in Q1 of 2013 at a price point below $700.

If you've been following along on this series, you're probably starting to notice a common thread among the early cars of the Rat Rod movement: they're all well-built and their owners never really considered them "finished." See, the point was, 15 years ago, that a custom or hot rod didn't have to be finished within an inch of its life to be driven and enjoyed. You could see the finished car in your head, but you didn't have to wait till it was done to take it to a show or whatever. The point was absolutely NOT to build the shittiest car you could, ignore time-tested aesthetics and mechanical geometry, cover yourself with neck-bombs and vintage-ized CBGB t-shirts and roll out to some rock-a-silly reunion with everyone doing the same thing and spend all night convincing yourself how much of an individual you are.
Wait –– where were we?
Oh, yeah. The original Rat Rods. They weren't all hot rods, either. There were plenty of full-fendered coupes that made early impressions on the young scene. San Jose, CA's Steve Sellers built and drove one of the most well-known coupes that got coverage in the very few magazines that dared cover such things in the mid to late Nineties. And not just for the gi-normous flames or tire smoke his car could and would spew at the pleasure of any gathered crowd.
Steve's car –– a 1950 Ford Business Coupe –– embodied the spirit of those early days of Ratrodding the way few other full-fendered cars did. And he drew from a few different influences in ways just not seen much when he debuted the car at the very first Billetproof car show in 1997: tail-dragging, C-notched frame in the spirit of the San Jose-area lowriders of the Seventies, a stout Chevy 350 topped with an Edelbrock X-1 intake and six Stromberg carbs like it was done in the late Sixties, those unforgettable seaweed flames that painters like Larry Watson made popular in the early Sixties and a ton of Fifties-era influences like the full wheel covers and whale-tail motorcycle tailpipe tips.
Pat Lash, who painted the car copper before the Bay Area's Notcho laid down the seaweed flames, helped him get the car to that first Billetproof and the event was recorded in the second (and last) issue of Hot Rod Deluxe –– the first newsstand magazine dedicated to the young movement. A now-infamous photograph of Steve's coupe belching out a 10-foot ball of flames while onlookers watch him casually sit in the driver's seat with the door eased open has become an iconic image that sums up what the movement was all about.
Steve not only drove the coupe to shows, but he used it as his daily driver for years before retiring it to show/party/midnight run duty. "Drive it like you stole it" was more than just a bumper sticker ethos for Sellers. He wasn't afraid to drive the car hard, have fun and fix things when they broke, smooth out wrinkles when needed and replace motors when they blew. The point was that he was having fun in a well-built, well-styled car that paid homage to the early customizers and was driven daily across the epicenter of the booming dot-com era. An amazing dichotomy, when we pause and consider it.
Sure, by the time Steve got his shoebox on the road in '97, the Rat Rod movement was a force to be reckoned with and there were enough cars being built with the same approach to fill a few car shows (Billetproof, "Paso" and the Shifters' Anti-Blessing, to name a few). But his hoodless, flamed and flaming coupe touched a nerve in the custom car world that would not soon be forgotten.
The copper deal-changer ended up in Japan after Steve sold it in the early 2000s. The car was disassembled, suspension was changed, the seaweed flame-covered copper was scraped off, the wheels and interior were replaced and the only clue to its history that remained intact was the cyclops headlight in the center of the grille. It's not common for the Japanese to acquire such an iconic machine and change it so dramatically, but that's the way car culture goes, sometimes.
When pressed about the Sellers coupe, Steve will say he "never really finished it." And really, that's the point.

Former Bayern Munich goalkeeper Jean-Marie Pfaff says Manuel Neuer can become the world's best shot-stopper.
The 59-year-old said he admires the Bavarians' player, but warned that there is still work to be done if he is to live up to his potential.
"He's a strong keeper, of course. But just because he's playing for Bayern doesn't mean he's the best in the world," Pfaff told TZ.
"Nobody talked about that when he was at Schalke. He can become the best keeper in the world, but he must perform on the top level for some years, for example at the World Cup 2014," he added.
Pfaff went on to praise the 26-year-old's technical abilities, and believes his footwork is a key attribute.
"He's a big factor of stability, because his colleagues know that there's someone behind them who can sometimes save the impossibles," the Belgian continued.
"Neuer is two-footed, can solve any problem without hoofing away the ball. He is playing nearly as well as his team-mates, he could play as a central defender. And that's a big advantage for Bayern.
"They do not have 10 outfield players but 11, that's why it is impossible for any opponent to put pressure on them," he added.
Neuer has been in excellent form so far this season for his club, having played all 17 of his side's league fixtures, keeping 11 clean sheets in the process.
Bayern are currently top of the Bundesliga table with 42 points, with their next fixture coming on January 19 at home to Greuther Furth.

A Sydney woman will not fight drug charges, after being caught in Bali with marijuana, likely in the hopes of a swift conclusion to what has already been a long ordeal.
Leeza Ormsby, 37, finally appeared in a Bali court on Monday after being arrested in February at the scene of a drug raid.
She has admitted to being in possession of a joint, but argues she knows nothing about the MDMA and hashish police allegedly seized from the scene.
Ormsby remained in a cramped police cell for months while officers unsuccessfully tried to link her to the other drugs, finally charging her two weeks ago.
The New Zealander arrived at Denpasar District Court on Monday dressed in a long, white cheesecloth shirt, with her fingernails painted blue, shielding her face from the cameras with a fan that said "Paradise".
Prosecutor Ni Putu Oka Ariani confirmed Ormsby would only be charged with possession of the marijuana joint.
The charges carry penalties of up to 12 years in prison.
She told the court police on February 11 received information about a "drug party" attended by foreigners at a villa north of Kuta.
On February 12, she said, Ormsby was seen entering the villa concerned using a key. A search of her handbag turned up the joint.
"The defendant admitted that the joint was given to her by her friend named Robert, with the intention of using it together," the prosecutor said.
The chief of the three-judge panel, Parulian Saragih, asked Ormsby whether she understood the charges and through an interpreter, the Rotorua-born woman said she did.
Lawyer Ari Soenardi says his client won't fight the charges.
"We will try to show the medical examination test results, which state that the defendant is a narcotics user, and hope for leniency later," he told reporters outside court.
The trial will continue with witness examinations on June 5.
Ormsby will remain in custody in Kerobokan jail, where Australian Schapelle Corby served nine years for smuggling marijuana into Bali.
Corby was released on parole two days before Ormsby was arrested.
Ormsby remained quiet and calm at her court appearance on Monday, in contrast to her state when she was charged two weeks ago.
Then, she cried and called out to reporters: "I want to go home."
Her Paddington flatmates have told media that Ormsby hadn't been working before she suddenly left for Bali, but had spoken of feeling stressed.
Bali police at one point were going to ask Interpol to help track down the other foreigners who had been at the party – including two Australian men – but apparently never pursued them.

The Siskiyou Substance Abuse Coalition (SSAC) will be launching its Athletes Committed program on Aug. 1. It will kick off at the Weed, Happy Camp, Butte Valley and Mount Shasta high schools.
At the SSAC's July 15 meeting, Arden Carr, a licensed clinical site supervisor for the county's behavioral health services, provided an update on the program's status, successes and potential future actions.
To initiate the Athletes Committed program, the SSAC invested to send five coaches to Athletes Committed training at Lake Placid: Kirk Andrus, lead coach for Athletes Committed; Bradly Robinson, Mount Shasta High School; Jason Allen, Butte Valley High School; and Amy Chizek and Steve Neel, Weed High School.
The coaches received information on running the program in their schools and a 4-gigabyte flashdrive's worth of guides, manuals and posters to help them get started.
Student leader training is set to begin the week of Aug. 12. Parent committed training is still in the works.
In addition, presentations on Athletes Committed have been made to other districts, with many still deciding whether to be a part of the program.
"There were many heated public hearings where this has really raised the issue in the community," said Carr. "Parents are realizing this program will impact or potentially impact their perspective of drugs and alcohol in their own homes."
Carr did point out these realizations have resulted in positive outcomes but could not go into specifics.
Carr's presentation addressed the steps needed to be taken in the future. He noted that in the districts currently running the program, some sports are not represented while others are over-represented. He also suggested the usefulness of sponsoring students to go to the Lake Placcid training camp to learn to be student leaders.
During the presentation, SSAC members discussed the necessity for balance between the county and the schools, pointing out the need to create a framework that will serve the entire county while providing enough flexibility that the schools can tackle their unique situations in an individual manner.
Athletes Committed is designed to create a drug-free athletic environment and help students with substance abuse issues while prompting all student athletes to obtain their potential.
Further updates are scheduled for the next meeting, slated for Aug. 19.
Athletes Committed set to start Aug. 1
The Siskiyou Substance Abuse Coalition (SSAC) will be launching its Athletes Committed program on Aug. 1. It will kick off at the Weed, Happy Camp, Butte Valley and Mount Shasta high schools.
