Multiple Blasts [1]
A white dwarf would seem to be one of the most innocuous objects in the universe. It's the small dead core of a once-normal star like the Sun. It no longer produces energy through nuclear reactions, but it continues to shine because it's extremely hot.
But give a white dwarf a companion star and things change in a hurry. Interactions between the two can trigger explosions — big ones that blast away the white dwarf's outer layers, or gigantic ones that blast the entire star to cosmic dust. And sometimes, a single white dwarf can do both.
A research team led by Ben Dilday of UC-Santa Barbara found evidence of a double-blaster in a galaxy 600 million light-years away. A supernova flared to life there, briefly outshining its entire home galaxy. The supernova was the complete destruction of a white dwarf.
But observations revealed expanding shells of gas and dust around the supernova. The shells were produced by earlier nova explosions.
The two types of explosions are related. Both occur when gas piles up on the surface of a white dwarf. A nova is an explosion of the shell of extra gas, while a supernova is the disruption of the entire star.
To complicate matters even more, that's only one of the ways in which a white dwarf can become a supernova. The other is when two white dwarfs ram together. Astronomers have seen evidence of a few of these collision-powered supernovae — the violent ends of otherwise quiet stars.

Under a baobab tree, an old man tells a story to the children around him: a tale of the friendship between a young escaped slave boy, Maki, and Zarafa, an orphaned giraffe being gifted to the King of France by the Pasha of Egypt. Determined to fulfill the promise he made to Zarafa's late mother, Maki does everything in his power — even risking his own life — to prevent the giraffe from reaching its intended destination in France. The two end up on an epic journey from Sudan to Paris, passing through Alexandria, Marseille and the snow-capped Alps on amazing adventures along the way. Rémi Bezançon's charming animated feature debut is co-directed by Jean-Christophe Lie, the supervising animator of the acclaimed THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE.

Drawing on the folk and fairy tale tradition from every corner of the globe, acclaimed animator Michel Ocelot (KIRIKOU AND THE SORCERESS) crafts six original tales that could believably have been passed down through the ages — heroic quests and allegorical endeavors that will excite and delight audiences of all ages. As will Ocelot's bold new direction in animation, using only black silhouette figures against vibrantly colored backgrounds, a style that enlists the viewer's own imagination in completing the picture and harkens back to animation pioneers like Lotte Reiniger. Official Selection, 2011 Berlin, Karlovy Vary, Sitges and London Film Festivals.

Adapted from the graphic novels of Joann Sfar, this is a vivid, lively and imaginative animated film co-directed by Sfar and Antoine Delesvaux.

It was real. It had something to do with a Promotion Mercedes used, white how light travels, as they were introducing their new Headlight design which dims and moves the lights away from on-coming traffic.

Joe Allen and Steve Morison have both been withdrawn from the Wales squad ahead of their two upcoming World Cup 2014 qualifiers away in Scotland and at home to Croatia.
Liverpool midfielder Allen had already been a doubt for selection due to an ongoing shoulder problem, as Reds boss Brendan Rodgers confirmed he will need surgery, while Leeds forward Morison is suffering from a calf injury.
The news represents a blow to Chris Coleman's hopes of improving his side's faint hopes of qualification for Brazil 2014, with both Allen and Morison key members of the Welsh squad.
23-year-old Allen had looked set to take part in the double header despite his troublesome shoulder injury. However, after being withdrawn at half time of Liverpool's 3-1 defeat at Southampton on Saturday, the decision to operate has been brought forward by the club.
In response to Morison's absence in particular, Coleman has called up Millwall striker Jermaine Easter, who is currently on loan at the New Den from Crystal Palace.
The 31-year-old, who has played 10 times for his country without finding the net, scored at the weekend on debut for his new club in a 2-0 victory at Charlton.
Wales currently lie second-bottom of Group A with only Scotland below them, the team that has provided Coleman's men with their only three points of the qualification campaign so far.

This page is a starting point for the direction and evolution of Orion's User Experience.
From Wikipedia:
User experience (UX) is the way a person feels about using a product, system or service. User experience highlights the experiential, affective, meaningful and valuable aspects of human-computer interaction and product ownership, but it also includes a person's perceptions of the practical aspects such as utility, ease of use and efficiency of the system. User experience is subjective in nature, because it is about an individual's feelings and thoughts about the system. User experience is dynamic, because it changes over time as the circumstances change.

AMHERST — Khary Bailey-Smith and Joe Colton are UMass safeties. They are freshmen. They are Massachusetts natives — Bailey-Smith from Weymouth, Colton from Norwood.
Their Amherst arrivals, however, involve divergent paths.
The 6-foot-2-inch, 190-pound Bailey-Smith, a former high jumper, considered track offers from Connecticut and Pittsburgh. When UMass presented a football scholarship, the former Weymouth High standout accepted the offer.
Colton had no such luck.
Colton didn't receive any scholarship offers, not after his career at Xaverian nor a postgraduate year at Avon Old Farms. While Bailey-Smith boasts the tall and lean frame of a prospective college football player, the 5-8, 188-pound Colton, by UMass coach Charley Molnar's eye, resembles a paperboy.
Colton's appearance may be a reason his only possible landing spots were UMass and UConn, both as a recruited walk-on. Xaverian coach Charlie Stevenson cautioned Colton that production didn't necessarily mean potential.
"I could run for 2,000 yards in high school. I could have all the stats and do everything right," Colton said. "But when a college recruiter comes to look at you, does he see those separate? Does he see the potential side of it, the intangibles? Are you 6-2, 225, running a 4.6? Or are you like a million other kids who are 5-10, 185 pounds, running 4.5s? Really, when it came down to it, I didn't have the potential-type look."
Last Saturday against Akron, both the scholarship winner and the walk-on contributed to UMass's 22-14 victory, its first in Football Bowl Subdivision competition. Bailey-Smith recorded a second-quarter interception. Colton picked off a fourth-quarter pass. They combined on a blocked punt — Colton did the blocking, Bailey-Smith did the recovering — to set up a field goal.
They were the type of plays by first-year players that signal stronger seasons to come for UMass (1-9, 1-5 Mid-American Conference).
"They know there's a bright future right around the corner," Molnar said of his freshmen. "They're motivated. They're excited about the athleticism and the pure football ability that's in their freshman class. The freshmen are very excited about what the future holds for their group. They should be. The other younger guys know if they keep working hard and we continue to hit our markers along the way, they'll play not only for a winning team, but for a team that's going to compete for a division title before they graduate."
Colton's interception gave the Minutemen the space they needed. With his team trailing, 15-7, Akron quarterback Dalton Williams faded back in his end zone to pass.
Colton, from his Cover-2 formation in the secondary, read that Akron had called a dig route. Linebacker Perry McIntyre was in coverage. Colton, as he's been taught, was shading over the route.
When Williams's pass sailed high, Colton was positioned to pick it off and return the ball 16 yards to the Akron 1. Two plays later, quarterback Mike Wegzyn piled into the end zone to give UMass a critical 22-7 lead.
"He was in the right place where he was supposed to be," said Molnar. "When the ball's in the air, he's like a receiver. He just goes and gets it."
Colton displayed football intelligence on his interception. Earlier in the win, Colton tapped into a cruder asset to block Zach Paul's punt.
"Those are effort plays," Molnar said. "You have to be fearless."
Colton lined up over the middle to blitz through the A-gap. As Paul took the snap, the punter's protector released into coverage too soon. Before Paul could punt the ball away cleanly, Colton got a piece of the kick. Bailey-Smith scooped up the ball for a 10-yard return to the Akron 5. Five plays later, Blake Lucas nailed a 23-yard field goal to give UMass a 3-0 lead.
Without those plays, UMass might still be winless heading into Saturday's game against Buffalo at Gillette Stadium.
"Everybody's really happy now that we got the win," Bailey-Smith said. "But we're working hard to get another one. Or another two, hopefully."
It took several twists to place Bailey-Smith and Colton in their respective positions. Molnar and his coaches recruited Bailey-Smith as a wide receiver. But when training camp opened, after recognizing his roster's defensive shortcomings, Molnar approached Bailey-Smith about a switch. Bailey-Smith approved. Bailey-Smith has yet to take a collegiate offensive snap.
One of the factors that kept Colton from UConn was the lure of in-state tuition. Also, Colton's father Robert and uncle Pete spent time at UMass.
But even Joe Colton's place in summer camp was not guaranteed. It took the suggestion of recruiting coordinator Shane Waldron to secure Colton a camp position.
From the start of camp drills, Colton caught Molnar's attention.
"He would cover our best receivers, and I'm there yelling, 'You just got covered by Joey Colton,' not knowing who he was," Molnar recalled with a smile. "I meant that as a dig. But after 3-4-5 days of saying it, I started to realize, 'Wait a minute, he's covering everybody.' From that point forward, I realized he was a pretty good football player. Once we put the pads on, he was making tackles all over the place. I likened him the other day to a heat-seeking missile. He just goes. He sees the ball and he just goes."
The scholarship that has eluded Colton might come. Future wins could also be in the works. Colton will take both.
"When you get a win, everything's erased," Colton said. "We got a taste of winning. Going into this game Saturday, we feel like we can win another game. Win the last game, we go out with a bang."Fluto Shinzawa can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @GlobeFluto.

|Betty Goes Vegan – with a tomato as big as a bean bag.
A lot has happened since growing up in the 70s. If you haven't heard the news, Betty has gone vegan, thanks to first-time authors, husband-and-wife team, Annie and Dan Shannon of Meet The Shannons. They veganized most of Betty Crocker's classic recipes in their freshman cookbook, Betty Goes Vegan: 500 Classic Recipes for the Modern Family
|Banana, Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies: Delicious., subtle banana and PB essences
Betty Goes Vegan is also amazing in its ambition. Do you miss Ceviche? Veganized! Miss Shrimp Scampi? Plant-a-licious. How about New England Clam Chowder? Bingo. You got it – animal-free. No more 'scuses.
|I'm taking these to work tomorrow lest I should eat them all solo.
|An all-American plate starring the Shannon's easy, tasty Maple-Pecan Crusted Vegan Chicken.
The only thing I didn't like about this book – and I'm sorry for saying it, guys! – is the structure of most of the recipes. They lean super hard on store-bought mock meats, vegan cheeses, and other processed foods. Yes, the recipes are plant-based. And yes, for a new or busy vegan, they are a good solution. But if we are going to take the emancipation of Betty Crocker to its ultimate pinnacle, doing it with mainly whole foods would have been an awesome coup. Eating processed foods, even vegan ones, is not something I think we should glorify.
|Greek Lemon Soup: Made it because I had all the ingredients. Easy chick-peasy.
Minor complaints, I know. Bottom line is, this book is perfect for new, busy, and/or lazy vegans.

The Prison Doors Close Behind YouRichard Waialeale
Genesis 39:20-21 (NIV)
"...But while Joseph was there in the prison, the Lord was with him;
"...But while Joseph was there in the prison, the Lord was with him;
There have been times when I might not have been imprisoned, but felt incarcerated. Times when I felt like the prison doors had just shut close behind me and I was confined in a place of loneliness. What I notice about Joseph is when this happened to him, he did not sulk, become discouraged and rebellious, or engage in self-pity by thinking "everything was against him." Because if Joseph had done so, the prison warden would not have trusted him.
May I remember that if self-pity is allowed to set in, I will never be used by God again until it is totally removed. Joseph always seemed positive in spite of the situation. He simply placed everything in joyful trust upon the Lord, and as a result the prison warden placed everything into Joseph's care.
LORD Jesus, when the prison door closes behind me, keep me trusting in You with complete and overflowing joy. Use me Lord I pray and give Your work through me with great success, even when I feel imprisoned, make me "free indeed."

The Smallest House in Great Britain
by Katie Davies
In Conwy (a small town on the North coast of Wales) there is a building which claims to be the smallest house in Great Britain. It's known as the Quay House and stands at only 10 feet 2 inches tall with a floor area of only 10 by 6 feet. It has been occupied since the 16th century, but is now only used as a tourist attraction. I include a picture of me outside the house for scale. I am only 5 feet 3 inches tall and had to stoop slightly to enter the door. Amazingly the last resident of the house was a foot taller than me, 6 feet 3 inches, little wonder then that he abandoned it!
There's more information on the smallest house on the Conwy Castle website http://www.conwy-castle.co.uk/Attractions-near-Conwy-Castle/Smallest-House-in-Great Britain.html
Thanks so much for the very entertaining blog, I especially like the 'Tiny House in a Landscape' feature, always such beautiful pictures!

KABUL, Afghanistan , Sept. 8, 2006 – A suicide attack on a coalition convoy in central Kabul today killed two U.S. soldiers and wounded another. U.S. officials in Afghanistan said the blast, near the U.S. Embassy in downtown Kabul, also killed an unconfirmed number of Afghan civilians.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with their families and their fellow teammates," Army Maj. Gen. Benjamin C. Freakley, commander of Combined Joint Task Force 76, said. "Additionally, we are very sorry for the death of our Afghan allies who were killed by these Taliban extremists who care nothing about human decency or life."
The U.S. soldiers were assigned to a Provincial Reconstruction Team helping to rebuild roads and schools, provide power, and complete hundreds of other projects to improve the lives of the Afghan people.
"These acts of violence only confirm our resolve; we remain vigilant in our efforts to help the people of Afghanistan restore peace and security," Freakley said. "Their sacrifice will not be forgotten."
With today's attack, 125 Afghan civilians and seven U.S. service members have been killed since January at the hands of the Taliban extremists in suicide bombings, officials said.

Liverpool native and former UFC veteran Terry Etim's long-awaited debut with Bellator has finally been confirmed.
He fights on the undercard of Bellator 106, the promotion's first PPV in it's history, headlined by two former UFC Light Heavyweight Champions, Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson and Tito Ortiz.
Etim was cut from the Zuffa promotion after back-to-back loses. The first was to Brazilian Muay Thai expert Edson Barboza, where he was KO'd by a devastating wheel kick. This was followed by a very surprising loss almost a year later to another Brazilian, Renee Forte, by unanimous decision in London. Etim (15-5) meets Patrick Cenoble, who poses a 9-2 record.
The Scouser, who trains out of Team Kaobon in his hometown, has struggled throughout his career with injuries and this fight is no different. It's his first fight in what will be almost nine months come November 2nd.
He has been and still is regarded as one of Britain's greatest talents. He has exceptional stand up, competing with Edson Barboza fully until the third round KO and amazing Jui-Jitsu finishing 11 of his 15 fights by submission.
If Etim could say fit, he could have a real chance in the Lightweight tournament. He's been lined up to fight UFC veteran Joe Lauzon several times which portrays his talent.
His fight is live and free on SPIKE TV and hopefully he'll put in an impressive performance to qualify for the next Bellator Lightweight tournament.
Etim's fellow training partners and natives Paul Sass and Mark Scanlon have also signed for the company and are expected to make their debut soon.

|Assistant Coach
|(617) 496-9406
|[email protected]
|Previous College:
|Virginia 2011
|Fourth Season
Former Virginia All-America goalie Adam Ghitelman, who won a national championship with the Cavaliers in 2011, joined head coach Chris Wojcik's '96 staff as an assistant coach on Jan. 24, 2012.
In his third season in Cambridge, Ghitelman helped the Crimson do what no other team had done in 24 years, as Harvard won the program's first Ivy League championship since 1990 with a 5-1 conference record. The feat helped earn Harvard an at-large berth to the NCAA tournament, its first since 2006 and sixth overall, while elevating the Crimson to the highest ranking in program history at No. 11. Harvard finished the year off with a 10-7 overall record, an impressive 7-1 mark in Cambridge, four wins over ranked opponents, and seven selections to the All-Ivy League teams, the second most in program history. Additionally, Devin Dwyer and Bobby Duvnjak garnered USILA All-America honorable mention honors, while Ghitelman helped mentor a defensive unit which allowed 9.76 goals per game overall, a league-low 8.63 in conference, while holding 11 of its 17 opponents to fewer than 10 goals.
During Ghitelman's second season the Crimson netminders combined for a 9.97 goals-against average and held two opponents to five goals or less. Harry Kreiger, who earned All-New England second team and All-Ivy League second team accolades, owned a 53.6 save percentage and 9.95 goals-against mark.
In Ghitelman's first season with the Crimson in 2012, Harvard goalies posted a combined goals-against average of 9.77. Harvard held two opponents to five goals or less, with Harry Kreiger owning a .510 save percentage and an 8.42 goals-against mark.
Ghitelman, who is in his third season playing for the Charlotte Hounds of Major League Lacrosse, was named to the 2012 MLL All-Star Game and helped lead the Hounds to the MLL championship game in 2013. He was drafted by the Denver Outlaws in the eighth round (45th overall) of the 2011 MLL Collegiate Draft.
During his playing career in college, recorded 586 saves during his 62-game career at Virginia, posting a 8.94 goals-against average and a save percentage of .533. During Virginia's run to the national championship last spring, Ghitelman, who served as one of the team's captains in 2011, started 17 games and stopped 178 shots, to go along with a 9.54 goals-against average. He concluded his collegiate career second in Virginia history in career saves.

My friend Michele invited The Family Joy over for post nap play, dinnner and a walk in the nature preserve yesterday.
"If it's warm out," she told us, "bring swim suits for the kids because we just got a new inflatable pool..."
Well, it was warm out.
[Of course I totally forgot the bathing suits.]
It didn't matter though. Apparently, I'm raising my little people right because they took one look at the inflatable pool and demanded to be stripped naked.
"Take my clothes off NOW, Mommy!!"
Michele's husband offered The Mayor a swim diaper ( "in case he would feel more comfortable" ) but my boy wholly rejected those good intentions.
Nekkid is IN.
The Mayor frolicked about in the inflated pool waving his host's plastic, toy golf club in the air, smacking the pool toys and splashing the water with it.
Then he turned to Michele and her husband and said,
"Hey! Look what I can do! I can put this golf club up my butt!!"
Just like that, in all his nude glory, he wedged the toy 5 Iron between his butt cheeks, grinned like a maniac and waited for applause.
What on EARTH is Michele going to tell her son today when he wants to play with his toy golf set?
"Sorry, bud. Golf stinks."
Want to have us over?

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A former member of the Kansas State Board of Education is opposing a school finance suit, saying school districts don't need more money.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Wichita Republican Walt Chappell submitted an amicus brief to the Kansas Supreme Court this month. He says school districts could save nearly a billion dollars by consolidating, making teachers work longer hours and cutting funding for low-income students.
The school finance lawsuit accuses the state and Legislature of underfunding schools by hundreds of millions of dollars. In January, a Shawnee County District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, an alliance of about 50 school districts.
The case since has proceeded to the Kansas Supreme Court.

Intel's 'Woodcrest' to clock at 2.93GHz
'Whitmore Lake' system logic for Xeon ULV, too
Intel is set to ship its 'Woodcrest' processor, the first 65nm Xeon chip to be based on the chip giant's next-generation architecture, will ship at 2.93GHz and boast a 1333MHz frontside bus, a purported copy of the company's server roadmap posted on a Chinese-language website claims.
Woodcrest will run on top of Intel's 'Blackford' chipset, a part the company announced some time ago. It hasn't, so far as we can recall, mentioned 'Whitmore Lake', which appears on HKEPC's posting alongside the upcoming Xeon ULV, the low-voltage version of 'Sossaman', itself derived from Intel's Core Duo mobile processor.
The Xeon ULV will debut in H2, the roadmap indicates, and be supported by Whitmore Lake and Intel's existing E7520. Whitmore Lake will also support older low-voltage Pentium M parts pitched at ultra-dense servers.
Interestingly, the document claims Intel will also ship Sossaman under the Celeron brand. If accurate the roadmap suggests Intel plans to use the budget chip brand to push low-cost, dense server systems. Again, this is due to take place in H2.
A separate image, possibly taken from another slide, claims Woodcrest will ship using an LGA-771 socket. The picture also indicates the Xeon ULV will clock at 1.66GHz across a 667MHz frontside bus. The forum poster alleged the chip will consume up to 15W at that speed. ®

Nottingham Forest boss Billy Davies targets successful second spell
New Nottingham Forest manager Billy Davies is determined to lead the club to the Premier League during his second spell.
Last Updated: 11/02/13 3:53pm
Since the 48-year-old Scot was sacked by Forest in June 2011, the Championship club have rifled through four different bosses before picking Davies to succeed Alex McLeish, who lasted just 40 days in the role.
Davies, who has not managed another club in the 20 months since his departure, has signed a three-and-a-half-year contract with Forest chairman Fawaz Al-Hasawi.
Speaking at Monday's press conference, Davies said: "Over a period I think we've got to look at taking this club to where we think it belongs. That is certainly the ambition of the majority of the people here and certainly my ambition.
"I've said time and time again that not all managers get sacked because of results. It's a result-driven business but sometimes that's not the case. I accept that these things happen and moved on in my life.
"I never thought that my next chapter would be coming back to Nottingham Forest although I always said I wanted to come back one day to finish the job off.
"I am very confident, having spoken to the board. I've got no doubt in my mind that these people will do all they can do get the club to the Premier League. That's why I'm here and I'm very much looking forward to it.
"You have your discussions as normal. I'm not a fool. I may speak to the chairman regarding players. We'll try and find the right type with the right financial package and if that can happen then I'm sure we'll do all we can to get that player.
"There's always changes at a football club - managers, coaches, players and board members come and go. The one thing that is constant is the supporters, and we've got absolutely loyal ones here.
"They are supporters that demand a certain level of performance. That expectation I'm delighted to have because our supporters have had great success in the past and want great success in the future.
"There's been no mention of promotion or any level we've got to get to. We'll just look to the next game and do that with the remaining 15 matches of the season.
"I don't know what took place in the past and it remains in the past as far as I'm concerned. I'm very much looking forward to working with everybody at the club. I want to make it clear that I'm here because I felt I had unfinished business.
"I wouldn't be here if I didn't think it was possible. We all know the Championship is very difficult and we have an under-achieving squad. There's an abundance of talent."

My thoughts exactly, I came in here a couple of hours ago expecting some SOPA/PIPA acknowledgement, was truly puzzled by the chirping crickets.
Also but less shocking, the lack of a banner on the issue raises the question: Is Slashdot management neutral, apolitical, or something a little more insidious?
I'm guessing apolitical, by which I mean, management keeping their opinions to themselves and allowing the users to fire the cannons from all sides, with no interference.
They were also pandering to the Christian base that supports Resurrection
Of course it was. The initial "shelving" of the bill was a last ditch attempt to stop January 18th, so it could continue to be passed quietly. When tech giants of the internet decided to run their message anyway... well, no point in keeping up illusions anymore, might as well actively pass it.
Eric Cantor is Speaker of the House, and he's the one who 'tabled' SOPA yesterday, according to the stories we've been reading. The Speaker controls the House by controlling the schedule. He decides what gets floor time, and if he refuses to schedule something for a vote it can't become law.
Small correction, Eric Cantor is House Majority Leader. The current speaker of the house is John Boehner.
Well stated.
I was all happy with Mr. Cantor the other day, and now this. Apparently he didn't get the message hard enough.
Mr. Marco Rubio (R, Florida) DOES seem to have gotten the message though. he was one of the SPONSORS of PIPA and he has withdrawn his support from the bill and asked Speaker Reid to withdraw the bill entirely. [hotair.com]
So keep the pressure on people! It's working!
I am collecting screenshots of blacked-out sites today so we can have them all in one place. If you know of any other sites, please email them to me.

Here are some blacked-out webcomics:
Incidentally, half of these I hadn't even heard of before today; I only know of them now because they chose to protest SOPA! Also, Penny Arcade [penny-arcade.com] isn't blacked out but has an anti-SOPA banner, and XKCD [xkcd.com] hasn't updated yet.
Fox Trot [foxtrot.com]
(IMHO one of the earliest "nerdy" comics).
QuestionableContent.net and SomethingPositive.net have announcements, but no blackouts. SMBC-Comics.com has a blackout.
XBMC [xbmc.org] is blacked out in a unique way.
Why isn't Slashdot blacking out? It is one of those sites that could be greatly effected by this bill. Besides I need to be more productive today. And most of the sites I visit are blacked out too.
I'm willing to bet that the majority of those that would be affected by a Slashdot blackout are already against SOPA/PIPA, and already are vocal about it.
Not so with sites like Wikipedia, Google, etc.
If you aren't using script blockers, any page on English Wikipedia will come up and then immediately be replaced by a blacked-out page explaining the protest.
Doesn't do it at all if you come from outside the US, it seems. France at least. (tested via proxy)
Personal Opinion: for sites like Slashdot, the FSF, the EEF, etc, it makes more sense to dedicate a lot of space to discussing the issue on their front pages than to black-out. Most, if not all, people going to these sites are aware of the issue. The blackouts are an awareness raiser, for sites where everyone is already aware, news and information are a more effective form of protest.
The nice thing is that Facebook allows you to join in the protest. Steps required:
In your favorite image editor, create an all-black JPEG image.
Change your Facebook profile picture to that image.
Upload the all-black photo to Facebook to post on your wall. In the description, type the following (or similar):
If SOPA/PIPA pass, the Internet will look like this. Write your congresspeople. https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/ [google.com]

That's it. Now you'v
Heh - "Shelved" - that's an awesome word.
"Look! It's on a shelf! Look again! We took it OFF the shelf!"
What were we thinking, that they threw it in a pit of flames and burned all the copies?
There is a real reason why congress is less popular than things like Paris Hilton and Nixon.
Could've fooled me. I mean, with a 95% reelection rate, I would say they're a pretty popular bunch
No one else to vote in. They come in based on default.
The problem is our system determines the winner based on the most votes. If you got 1 vote and everyone else got 0, you win! Still doesn't mean the majority wants you in.
"Every 200 years there needs to be a revolution" - Thomas Jefferson
Came to mind when reading this...
If SOPA/PIPA dies in Congress, it is not because the people rose up to oppose the terrible legislation. It will die because enough corporations spoke up opposing it to outnumber the supporters.
The Hollywood studios behind these bills are some of Obama's biggest contributors. His "expression of concern" is just a pathetic attempt to play both sides of the fence. He would as soon deliver a State of the Union speech in the nude than to veto one of these bills (or anything similar).
This is the 2nd Amendment issue of our age, and like the NRA we need to be eternally vigilant against never-ending attempts to restrict our rights.
Personally, I support the EFF as the equivalent of my NRA.
As a New Jerseyan, I'd like to say that the 2nd amendment is still very much the 2nd amendment of our age. New and oppressive laws that suppress or otherwise impede our right to keep and bear arms crop up every day, especially in nanny states like NJ and CA.
Until every state has Shall Issue [wikipedia.org] [1] and Castle Doctrine [wikipedia.org] [2] laws, the fight is nowhere near over.
(Considering the Wikipedia is blacked out today, I'll add footnotes for these terms - doin' it old school!. The links are mainly for after the blackout
I think this topic is so much more than just SOPA and PIPA, it's much more broad, it goes to the very question what is government for? [slashdot.org]
One cannot be pro-copyright and pro-patent and simultaneously be anti-SOPA and anti-PIPA without a serious case of hypocrisy and intellectual dishonesty.
It will only happen if we let it happen. Defeatist attitudes and a feeling of powerlessness (which the mainstream media, government, and businesses love to cultivate in us at every opportunity save election years) serve no one but the people in power.
I wrote my senators and representative today - typed and printed out letters and signed them with my name. Should any of them vote for SOPA or PIPA I'll be spending a great amount of my time campaigning against them come next election and I want them to know th
Sent to Robert P. Casey, JR, Senator (D) from Pennsylvania:
"Big media may pay your bills, but your constituents elect you, sir. SOPA/PIPA does EVERYTHING for them and NOTHING for us. You should be ashamed of yourself for co-sponsoring PIPA. Please withdraw your support, immediately, and publicly."
I guess I'll post it in here too. A SOPA comic [upup-downdown.com] for your enjoyment.

Final Cut X is now available from the Mac App Store for $299 along with Motion 5 and Compressor 4 for $49.99 each.
Apple unveiled the completely rebuilt FCX at this year's National Association of Broadcaster's Conference, touting the programs new 64-bit architecture, something competing programs have had for over a year. The programs sports a completely revamped magnetic timeline, and absorbs the functionality of a number of programs that used to make up the Final Cut Studio Suite.
However, with the new software taking advantage of the 64-bit platform and GPU acceleration, some older Macs wont be compatible. Mac Pro users with older ATI graphics cards seem to be the culprit. However, Apple's Mac Store wont allow users with incompatible hardware to download the program. Hooray for OS integrated app stores.
Still, there seems to be some early backlash from the pro community. 9 to 5 Mac had a pro reader write in explaining these frustrations:
The new final cut pro x is being received very badly by pro editors. There is not support for many of the key features required in pro editing. Namely: No support for previous FCP project files. No support for output for tape (used in TV companies) no support for EDL and no support for XML. This is unequivocally not a a Professional program. Unless Apple release some updates addressing these key issues which mark the divide between consumer and pro, the pro community will very quickly leave apple behind.

As part of the manhunt for Mir Aimal Kaisi, the FBI slapped up wanted posters in post offices across the land.
That poster still hangs in downtown Stockton's Federal Building.
The U.S. Postal Service abandoned the Federal Building in 2008. A large glassed-in bulletin board still remains, like a mini-museum of early 1990s most wanted fugitives.
Besides Kaisi, there's Peter Hommerson, alias Lajos Ferenczi. A killer with a tattoo of a ghost on his left wrist, Hommerson was wanted for the shooting death of an Illinois couple.
There's Lisa B. Albert, an Ohio fraudster wanted for setting her home on fire to collect insurance money. And Fred Wilson of Louisiana, wanted for distribution of heroin through the U.S. mail.
The San Joaquin County Office of Education occupies part of the Federal Building these days. But the ground floor feels hushed and vacant, with Depression-era murals on the walls, yellowing old notices tacked up, and the dated wanted posters.
According to Wikipedia, the people hiding Kaisi in Pakistan ratted him out for the reward. He was executed in Virginia in 2002. You wouldn't know it from the Federal Building.

Private sector employment in the U.S. increased by 191,000 jobs from February to March, according to the March ADP National Employment Report released Wednesday.
Goods-producing employment rose by 28,000 jobs in March, slightly faster than an upwardly revised pace of 25,000 in February. Most of the gains came from the construction industry, which added 20,000 jobs over the month, compared to an average of 16,000 during the prior three months. Manufacturers added 5,000 jobs in March, the same as February.
"The job market is coming out from its deep winter slumber. Job gains are consistent with the pace prior to the brutal winter," said Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Analytics. "The gains are broad based across industries and business size classes. Even better numbers are likely in coming months as the weather warms."
Service-providing employment rose by 164,000 jobs in March, an increase from the upwardly revised 153,000 in February. The report indicates that professional/ business services contributed the most to growth in service-providing industries, adding 53,000 jobs, slightly more than the 49,000 in February. Expansion in trade/transportation/utilities grew by 36,000, about equal to the 37,000 jobs added in February. The 5,000 new jobs in financial activities mark the strongest pace of growth in the industry since November 2013.
"Despite the months of waning momentum in hiring ahead of arctic storms, winter weather was blamed for the slowdown over the past three months," said Lindsey Piegza, chief economist with the investment firm Sterne Agee. "Of course, if winter weather was to blame for the recent declines and employment growth is poised to return to the 200,000 plus trend seen back in October and November 2013, then wouldn't the market stand to anticipate a much more sizable rebound in March?"
The ADP National Employment Report is a monthly measure of the change in total U.S. nonfarm private employment derived from actual, anonymous payroll data of client companies served by ADP.
Factory Orders and Shipments
A report from the U.S. Commerce Department, also released Wednesday, shows both shipments and new orders for factory produced goods both turned around in February, following two straight monthly drops.
Shipments increased 0.9%, following a 0.7% January decline, while new orders gained 1.6%, following a 1% January drop. Both were pushed higher by significant hikes in the transportation sector.
New orders for manufactured durable goods in February increased 2.2% from the month before, while shipments for manufactured durable goods during the same time gained 0.8%.
Orders for manufactured nondurable goods increased 1% while shipments of them increased by the same level.
American Spending Habits
A new poll show many Americans may be putting thought into where their money has gone in the recent past and where it might be going in the near future. While attitudes haven't changed overwhelmingly since last December, some shifts in plans for the next six months may indicate that Americans are questioning their financial prospects over the next few months.
These are some of the results of The Harris Poll of 2,234 U.S. adults surveyed online between March 12 and 17.
Americans are more likely than in December to say that they plan on decreasing their spending on eating out at restaurants (59%, up 4 points) within the next six months, along with being less likely they will have more money to spend the way they want (34%, down 4 points) and that they will buy a new computer (23%, down 5 points), when compared to last December.
Americans' attitudes are close to or unchanged from December levels in many areas, including the likelihood that they'll buy or lease a newly manufactured car, truck or van (15%, down 2 points), purchase a house or condo (holding steady at 8%), start a new business (8%, down 2 points) and buy a boat or recreational vehicle (unchanged at 4%).
Compared to five years ago Americans are far less likely to anticipate that the next six months will see them decreasing their spending on eating out at restaurants (59%, down 15 points) and reducing their spending on entertainment (54%, down 20 points) and considerably more likely to expect that they'll have more money to spend the way they want (34%, up 13 points).

ROCCARASO, Italy (March 9) - Ryan Cochran-Siegle (Starksboro, VT) added one more gold to the "Skiing Cochran's" shelf with victory in the men's combined to close the 2012 FIS Alpine Junior World Ski Championships. The 19-year-old Vermonter, who won the downhill to open the week, finished 28th in giant slalom and 10th in slalom Friday to secure the title with the most points across the three disciplines. His mother, 1972 Olympic slalom gold medalist Barbara Ann Cochran, was on hand to cheer her son to double gold.
QUOTESRyan Cochran-SiegleI wanted to podium, that was the goal. I wish I'd have at least finished the super G, but I can't complain that much. It was an awesome event.
My plan is head home to Stowe [Vermont] to try for the NorAm overall title. It would have been cool to race at World Cup Finals, but the NorAm overall gives you a start in every World Cup discipline next season. That's my new goal.
Having my mom here was great. We got to spend a lot more time together than I did last year.
It was a good day, Bryce [Bennett] squeeked into the flip and had a really good second run and Rob [Cone] also did really well. It was a good day.
Peter Korfiatis, Europa Cup Head CoachI think slalom is the most difficult of the events. Theoretically you have 123 chances to mess up. It takes two runs and it's a totally different ball game each time you kick out of the start but the boys collectively as a group, its probably the best day we have had. We are happy with everybody's performance.
We're crossing the pond tomorrow to meet up with the rest of our group in Stowe and see what we can get done in chasing down some NorAm titles.

YJT Solutions Recognized as Employer of the Year in 9th Annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business
IT services firm is honored with prestigious award
By: PR Newswire
Nov. 13, 2012 08:13 AM
CHICAGO, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- YJT Solutions, a leading, Chicago-based provider of Information Technology (IT) consulting and managed services, has been recognized as a bronze winner of the 9th Annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business as Employer of the Year. The Stevie Awards for Women in Business are the world's premier awards for women executives, entrepreneurs and the organizations they run. The awards are judged each year by more than two hundred executives from around the world, and finalists were selected from more than 1,300 nominations last year. Announced as a finalist on October 30th, YJT's award was given at an annual dinner held in the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City on November 9th.
In five hundred words or less, applicants were asked to describe the activities and accomplishments that had occurred in the last year that made the firm worthy of being named Employer of the Year. Based on the high average scores that were received during more than a month of preliminary judging, the independent judges agreed that YJT is worthy of international recognition and named them a Bronze Stevie Award winner.
"We are incredibly honored," said CEO Linda Bracken upon hearing the news. "I've always felt that the output of a firm is only as successful as the sum of its parts; each day we're brainstorming and trying to innovate and improve our culture to attract and retain wonderful, passionate, kind employees. We've been incredibly successful over the last eleven years, and I'm confident it's because of the great people who are behind YJT – how terrific to be recognized!"
YJT Solutions is a Chicago-based provider of IT consulting and managed services to companies in a variety of industries that depend on technology. The firm was founded more than a decade ago to help build the IT infrastructure of some of the most demanding and unforgiving companies in the world: Chicago futures and options trading firms. YJT helped these firms transition into the world of electronic trading, and more recently has helped them scale to meet the extremely low latency and big storage demands of high-frequency trading. In recent years YJT has expanded in both scope and reach, bringing that same Chicago toughness to help companies in a variety of industries. YJT works to help companies accelerate profits, lower fixed costs, and reduce operational risk.

Roto-Mix, a manufacturer of livestock feeding and mixing equipment, will receive a partial tax exemption for 10 years following a unanimous vote by the city commission on Nov. 4.
Roto-Mix, a manufacturer of livestock feeding and mixing equipment, will receive a partial tax exemption for 10 years following a unanimous vote by the city commission on Nov. 4.
The exemption covers $3 million of the company's planned 20,000 square foot, $5.5 million expansion. In the first year, Roto-Mix will receive a 100 percent reduction in property taxes on the expansion. Each following year the reduction will decrease 10 percent. The rest of the expansion, comprising capital equipment and office furnishings, is already exempt under state economic incentive laws.
Roto-Mix has been located at 2205 E. Wyatt Earp Blvd. since 1965. It also has facilities in Hoisington and Scott City. Expanding the facility in Dodge City presented some difficulties due to being "landlocked" on its seven-acre site, Roto-Mix President Mike Hildebrand told the commission prior to the vote.
The site improvements and construction should be finished next summer, Hildebrand said, and will include a new, higher-capacity and more-compact painting system, replacing the one that's been in service since 1965.
The Kansas constitution allows municipalities to grant up to a total exemption of ad valorem taxes on property improvements to companies engaged in research or manufacturing, as long as the improvement creates new jobs. Roto-Mix expects to hire 10 more workers in the first year, three more than reported in the city's economic impact projections.
Also during the Nov. 4 meeting, the commission accepted a bid to resurface US-50 from border to border as part of the state's KLINK cost-sharing program. The bid from Klotz Sand Company of a little more than $328,000 came under the city's projected cost of nearly $400,000. Through the Kansas Department of Transportation program, the city will pay roughly $164,000 to repair the road.
Traffic on US-50 has increased significantly since Wyatt Earp Boulevard was removed from the Kansas highway system, engineering staff reported, and is "starting to show signs of deterioration." Work is expected to begin in the spring.

Montreal, QC (SportsNetwork.com) - Francis Bouillon scored 1:26 into overtime as the Montreal Canadiens rallied to stun the Ottawa Senators, 5-4, at Bell Centre.
The Canadiens avoided what would have been a season high-tying fourth straight loss in thrilling fashion.
Down 4-1 in the third period, they scored three times in the final 3:22, including David Desharnais' buzzer-beater.
On the game-winner, Max Pacioretty fired a shot from low in the right circle. Ottawa goalie Robin Lehner made the save and felt the puck was covered up. However, the referee didn't blow the play dead and Pacioretty dislodged the puck and Bouillon put it into the open net.
P.K. Subban assisted on all three of Montreal's third-period goals, while Carey Price made 30 saves in his return to the Canadiens' crease.
It was Price's first action since helping Canada win its second straight gold medal at last month's Olympics. He missed Montreal's first eight games following the NHL's resumption of play with a lower-body injury he aggravated in Russia.
The Senators extended their lead in the third period on goals from Ales Hemsky and Clarke MacArthur. Hemsky converted Jason Spezza's behind-the-net pass at 1:54 and Kyle Turris found MacArthur for a one-timer in the slot at 5:08.
"The final 3 1/2 minutes we tightened up, panicked. We didn't get over their red line," Ottawa head coach Paul MacLean said.
Montreal's improbable comeback began with Lars Eller scoring on a rebound from the doorstep at 16:38.
Brian Gionta beat a screened Lehner on a deflection from the right circle with 2:04 to play.
Turris went off for hooking 16 seconds later and the Canadiens pulled Price for a 6-on-4 advantage.
Montreal was buzzing around the Ottawa crease with relentless pressure and Desharnais narrowly beat the horn off a point feed from Subban.
"The second period was not our period, but after Eller's goal, we believed we could come back to win that game," Bouillon said.
Lehner stopped 43 shots for the Senators, who erased a 3-0 third-period deficit before losing in overtime to Nashville on Monday.
It was an auspicious start for the Canadiens as Daniel Briere scored 38 seconds into the game.
Turris won a neutral-zone faceoff, but the veteran Briere stole the puck from Bobby Ryan and beat Lehner from the high slot.
Spezza supplied a quick response for the Senators. Trailing on a rush, he jumped on a loose puck and blasted a slapper home at 3:08.
The Senators then got into penalty trouble, but the Canadiens were unable to capitalize on three first-period power plays.
Outshot 17-4 in the opening 20 minutes, Ottawa fired 16 shots in the second period and took a 2-1 lead late in the frame. Zack Smith handled a stretch pass from Erik Karlsson at the Montreal blueline and put home a rebound off his first attempt with 2:50 remaining.
Game Notes
Ottawa forward Chris Neil moved into sole possession of third place on the club's all-time games played list (839) ... Turris played in his 300th career game ... MacArthur returned to the Senators lineup after missing two games with a hand injury.

AYER-- Sitting on the bench Wednesday in Ayer District Court, Presiding Justice Peter Kilmartin heard the relationship woes of a handful of people seeking restraining orders, disposed of a bunch of motor-vehicle violations and held a few people on bail in more serious assault cases.
What appeared to be an average day on the bench for Kilmartin was unusual: It was his last day on the bench after 24 years as a state judge.
While Kilmartin, 69, of Stow, is a year away from the mandatory retirement age of 70, he said, "I'm ready to go."
Still in good health, Kilmartin said he plans on spending time with his wife of 44 years, Karen, who retired two years ago as a literary specialist from the Lowell schools, his two grown sons and their seven grandchildren. Learning to play golf, honing his bridge game, taking bicycling trips and a couple of other ideas he has bouncing around in this head are ways he will spend his retirement days.
He vows to stay connected with the law, but he won't be going into private practice.
After graduating from Seton Hall University in 1967 and Boston College Law School in 1970, Kilmartin was admitted to the Massachusetts Bar in 1970. Kilmartin spent four years in the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps, and another two decades as a reservist.
He hung out a shingle in Bedford from 1974 to 1990, when he was appointed as a judge by then-Gov. Michael Dukakis.
In retirement, he said, he would like to put his extensive legal knowledge to work helping veterans and senior citizens with their legal issues.
Kilmartin said It's the right time for him to leave to allow new Presiding Justice Elizabeth Cremins to implement the new Trial Court directives.
He says he feels he is leaving the court in good hands with experienced staff.
As for his 24 years on the bench, most it spent in Ayer and Concord district courts, Kilmartin said simply, "I loved it."
"I was honored to serve as a judge," he said as he sat in the judges' lobby surrounded by law books. 'It was interesting and varied work and I work with a great team of people."
What he loved about the job was the interaction with staff, attorneys and the community. He also enjoyed working with attorneys who raised unexpected and interesting legal issues that challenged him.
"You name it, it happened," he joked. "I loved the uncertainty of the issues that would come before you each day."
As for the people who appear before him, Kilmartin said he liked that he could give people their day in court and know that he listened to them.
"It is a process that gives both sides a chance to speak and tell their side of the story. Sometimes they realize their story doesn't make sense," he said smiling.
The worst part of the job has been the cutbacks in staff over the last few years and the shortage of judges, which created a backlog of cases in the Ayer court.
"We never had one (a backlog) in this court," he said. Now they are scheduling trials into December while three years ago it took two months to go to trial.
"That was a real frustration for me," said Kilmartin.
Kilmartin said one of his biggest accomplishments in Ayer was starting the trial session in the late 1990s. "That was a tremendous asset to the court," he said.
Before that, all Ayer District Court cases scheduled for trial were shipped to Lowell, adding to that court's bulging caseload and making it inconvenient for witnesses and others to get there.
He also notes the creation of Ayer District Court's Drug Court around the same time. Ayer was one of the first district courts in the state with this pilot program that provided people with addictions to get more extensive help through a team approach in the court.
Kilmartin admits that at first the state Trial Court administration was against Drug Court, but years later it is now being embraced and implemented in most major courthouses across the state, including Lowell District Court.
After more than two decades of being in court, he hopes he will be remembered as being a judge who was "fair, balanced and respectful" to all those who appeared before him.

Cornish separatists take aim at pasty students
Red terror stalks Cornish campus
Posted in Bootnotes, 13th October 2009 14:20 GMT
Cornish separatists have launched a campaign to scare students out of the county, along with second homers, surfers and celebrity chef Rick Stein.
The Cornish Republican Army was apparently behind a graffiti outrage in Penryn this weekend. The chilling words "Penryn has had enough of students" with the tag CRA were visible to visitors to University College Falmouth's open day, the Western Morning News reports.
Penryn is apparently a hot bed of agitation at present. Locals are currently objecting to the building of 231 student flats.
A spokesman for the University told the paper: "Our students also play an active role in town life by volunteering to help with a wide range of local projects and as institutions, our strong relationships with local partners encourage a sense of community responsibility and civic pride."
Which is reassuring, as most people associate students with binge drinking, vomit stained streets, noisy parties, and missing street furniture. Or, worse, pathetic attempts to blend in with the local culture.
The CRA are, of course, the successors to the Cornish National Liberation Army, who are of course, the successors to An Gof and the Cornish Liberation Army.
The CNLA was famously dubbed the OohArrA by the tabloids. It claims to receive support from other Celtic peoples around the world. And possibly even more when the pubs close. ®

Pennsylvania: AIDS Law Clinic Celebrates 15 Years, Changing Mission
August 6, 2003
When the AIDS Law Project of Pennsylvania was founded 15 years ago, HIV-positive children were being barred from classrooms, dentists refused to treat infected patients, and many of the firm's clients died before their cases went to a jury.Adapted from:
"We would go through a generation of clients every 18 months," said David W. Webber, who founded the nonprofit in Philadelphia in 1988.
But medical advances have dramatically increased the life span of those with HIV/AIDS, and public opinion about the disease has changed, resulting in a transformation of ALPP's work. Today, discrimination complaints comprise just 5 percent of the firm's caseload.
A more typical client includes someone well enough to return to work after years on a disability pension but needing help keeping government health insurance. The lawyers also dispense advice for people who are too ill to work and need public assistance to pay their rent. The firm has a program to help those clients whose savings were depleted by high medical bills restructure their debt.
"We never would have been doing that 15 years ago," said Ronda Goldfein, executive director of ALPP. "It's really a whole range of things that just weren't possible when we started."
What has not changed is the demand for the firm's services. Last year, ALPP fielded 1,779 requests for legal help. The firm mostly deals with clients who cannot afford a private lawyer. Sixty-two percent of last year's clients were black or Hispanic.
Goldfein added that discrimination cases may never go away entirely. On Friday, ALPP settled a case regarding a bus driver who, after learning that his passengers included men with HIV/AIDS bound for a legislative meeting in Harrisburg last year, refused to continue driving. "We are still seeing the cases where someone has said, 'You've got AIDS? We don't want you here,'" said Goldfein.

"Unfortunately, Cameron's declaration that the 'free flow of information' can sometimes be a problem, then an aberration, seems to have turned into a pillar of the UK government's 2012 agenda. Despite declaring early on in his term that internet freedom should be respected 'in Tahrir Square as much as Trafalgar Square', his government is now considering a series of laws that would dramatically restrict online privacy and freedom of speech." The United Kingdom's crippling nanny state culture reaches the web. A country in deep financial problems, facing pervasise social unrest, censors the web to prevent riots. Sure Cameron, make it so.

BitFenix Colossus is a full tower case weighing in at 18 kilograms. It measures 245mm x 582mm x 558mm (W x D x H).
There's no doubt that Colossus is a charmer, especially with the lights turned on. LED lights can switch from blue to red and cover the front and the sides of the case.
The front panel is opened by a simple tug. BitFenix used SofTouch material for the front ant top panels, and it's nice and soft on touch. The rest of the case, i.e. the construction and side panels are made of steel.
You can place the door the way you see fit, as you can see from the picture below.
The bottom part of the front panel has air holes for ventilation whereas the top part is reserved for five optical device spots.
The front fan comes with a large, removable dust filter. All 5.25'' meshes are also strapped with filters.
Mounting optical devices requires removing the entire front panel and the procedure is the same when you want to clean the dust filters.
The S3 compartment can be used to store some smaller items and you'll find its lock on the front panel.
You can lift the lid on the S3 compartment without having to remove the front panel.
The compartment hols the On/Off and reset keys, audio-out and mic-in jacks, eSATA connector, two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 connectors. Colossus and Colossus Venom cases come with two of each, whereas Colossus Window only comes with USB 2.0 connectors.
Lighting is controlled via the LED power key and the dual-mode key for color switching. Furthermore, Colossus is capable of incremental, dynamic changes in LED lighting intensity.
We found it pretty handy that the case comes with fan RPM controller. Apart from the two mounted 230mm fans, Colossus can take another two 140mm fans.
The back of the case reveals that the PSU is located on the bottom. Colossus has eight slots for expansion cards and four holes for water cooling systems. The rear panel does not come with any fans.
Colossus comes with two preinstalled fans; one 230mm which draws air on the front panel and one 230mm fan that pushes hot air out the top panel.
Colossus is a massive case which is best seen when compared to other large cases such as CoolerMaster HAF-X. As you can see from the picture, HAF-X is taller than the Colossus but it is not wider.

Some good team in one group may miss out by one vote when it would have deserved to go ahead. By having four teams qualifying from each group, we are minimizing the scope for a good team getting eliminated when it would have deserved to go through the next round.
Usually we just have one vote and that's that (after all it doesn't much matter who wins, most people just play for the sake of playing). If you want to have multiple rounds then go ahead but I agree that having four is really unnecessary, and you'll end up with a final of three votes.
