Hometown: Williamsburg, Va.
Birthday: June 19, 1984
Nicole graduated from Syracuse University in 2006 with degrees in journalism and history. Since graduation, she has worked as a copy editor and page designer at the News Leader in Staunton and The Gazette in Montgomery County, Md.
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for you to inject your beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that your beliefs are on the record will cause you to be ever mindful to write, report and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you ever see evidence that we failed in this mission, please let us know.
How would you describe your political beliefs?
I tend to lean left on most issues.
How religious would you consider yourself? (casual, observant, devout, non religious)
I am not religious.

Here's a story about how young members of the Changemakers community are working to eliminate pollution around the world:
It's not every day that a fifth grader reads and article in The Wall Street Journal and decides to take action. But Alex Lin was very surprised to learn about the environmental hazards of discarded computers and decided to do something about it, right in his own town.
Alex's e-waste initiative in Westerly, RI puts a twist on the problem of e-waste. It is solving two problems at once, by collecting local residents' discarded computers, refurbishing them, and giving them away to families unable to afford new electronic equipment.
Read more about this solution, or discuss this topic below.

Even small, selfless acts can spark a chain reaction. Just ask the kids at Wesley School in North Hollywood.
Three years ago, 6-year-old Colton Patarias, his father and his then-first grade teacher, Melinda Vasquez, came up with an idea. Why not make it a class project to raise money to help protect endangered animals?
His father, Constantine Patarias, is a longtime volunteer at the Los Angeles Zoo and suggested the class could raise money for the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association and its worldwide conservation efforts.
Colton would lead the effort - asking for donations, instead of gifts for his 6th
In the spirit of the holiday season, we searched for ordinary people making an impact -- with little or no fanfare -- on communities across the greater Los Angeles area:
Upland photographer donates time to capture final moments in children's lives
Redlands police Officer Elyzabeth Green having an impact on her community
Christmas in the Classroom brings holiday joy to Inland Valley low-income school students
Chino Hills resident dedicates time to helping children with a life-threatening illness
Young Visionaries: Helping San Bernardino County kids stay off the path to gangs
Barbara Wormser of Redlands organizes delivering food for the hungry
Hillside Handymen in Rancho Cucamonga donate tools and skills to help the community
Police chaplain comforts, consoles the grieving
Redlands' YouthHope Foundation helps homeless teens
Music Changing Lives: Rapper Josiah Bruny turns studio dreams into inspiration for youth
Apple Valley man makes drive to Watts to help students stay safe
Band members raise funds, buy toys for children hospitalized at Loma Linda University Medical Center
Project Caring and Sharing helps motivate kids who are in need
His classmates joined in.
"They were all excited, they're all animal lovers," he said of the other students' interest in the program.
Now, three years after the Wesley first-graders launched the project, they've raised $3,500 for the zoo's wildlife conservation project - the most donated by a single school, according to GLAZA.
To date, GLAZA's Adopt An Animal program, launched 23 years ago, has raised more than half a million dollars.
Other local schools, such as the Roosevelt School in Burbank, and St. Frances de Sales in Sherman Oaks, have also contributed over the years, but the Wesley School is one school that consistently raises funds on an ongoing basis, said Genie Vasels, a vice president at GLAZA.
As they raise money through recycling drives and jog-a-thons, Vasquez has the class "adopt" an animal and study up on the species. Over the years, they've adopted a gorilla, a tiger and giant otters who reside at the L.A. Zoo, and raised money in the animals' names.
Through field trips to the zoo and classroom instruction, the effort broadens the kids' knowledge of the world by teaching them about the Amazon, for instance, where otters' habitats are being destroyed by humans.
And the Wesley School first-graders take annual trips to the L.A. Zoo.
"They can see where their money is going," Vasquez said. "They can make a concrete connection with the animals."
On a recent Friday, they checked out the habitat for the giant otters, watching as a family of six giant otters swam and frolicked in the enclosure.
Colton, who is now 9, was also there, watching the animals, with his father, Constantine.
His son always had an interest in animals, Constantine said, but his love of the zoo increased after he began raising money for the program.
"He's now saying he wants to work at the zoo," Constantine said.

The Most Expensive Substances in the World ( - Fashion)
11 | The antimatter
The antimatter costs 62.5 trillion per gram. In the future it is theoretically possible to use antimatter as fuel for spaceships to other planets. The problem is that its production requires extremely expensive technology, and to create just 1 gram, the world would have to work a whole year (global GDP is 65 trillion dollars).

Californium costs $ 27 million per gram. Why is it needed? An element of californium is so expensive to produce, the isotopes of californium do not have any practical application.

This enameled plaque originally crowned the top of a large, double-sided altar cross. With chalk-white faces and deep brows, the angels mournfully bear witness to the Crucifixion of Jesus. Their censers proclaim his death and allude to the consecration of bread into Christ's body, since incense was burned both at funerals and during Mass. The balanced, elegiac composition, the richness of the colors, and the refinement of the vermiculé background distinguish this object as one of the highest achievements of Limoges enamellers, renowned throughout medieval Europe.

The bench trial of former nursing home operator George Houser took more than a month.
Houser was found guilty of all counts of health care fraud, eight counts of failing to pay more than $800,000 in payroll taxes and failing to file personal income tax returns.
He was sentenced to 20 years in prison in August.
His wife, Rhonda Houser, pleaded guilty to misprision of a felony for her role and received five years of probation.
Spriggs saga ends
Robert Timothy Spriggs was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole for murdering his former girlfriend's father in 2009.
John Gregory Davis, 45, was fatally shot by Spriggs at his Old Dalton Road home on Nov. 17, 2009.
Spriggs was also sentenced for a long list of other crimes, including aggravated assault, for shooting his former girlfriend's brother-in-law at a home on Clinton Drive on that day while four women hid in an attic.
2 charged with killing child
A mother and her live-in boyfriend were charged with murder in the death of a 2-year-old girl.
Heather Parker and her boyfriend Eric Castro, of 100B Reeceburg Road, Silver Creek, were charged with felony murder, malice murder, felony cruelty to children and felony aggravated battery.
On June 25 emergency officials were called to the intersection of Reeceburg and Booze Mountain roads to reports of an unresponsive child. Castro was found with Kailee in his arms by a driver on the road, who stopped to see if any help could be given to the child, police said.
Castro told those who tried to help Kailee and police that he thought the child was having a seizure.
An autopsy revealed the child died from multiple, blunt traumatic injuries to the head.
2 plead in case of stabbing death
William West and Jonathan Carson pleaded guilty in November to felony false statements and misdemeanor involuntary manslaughter, fighting in a public space, false report of a crime, battery and simple battery in relation to the Feb. 20 stabbing death of Tymurius Elkins.
They were sentenced to 10 years with two to serve in prison. The two-year sentence will be suspended upon completion of a boot camp program. The remaining eight years will be served on probation.
Ricky Ricardo Cruz was also arrested, but his case is pending.
Daughter, boyfriend charged in death
Floyd County police were tight-lipped about the October death of Jozell Payne, 76, who was found dead in his Callier Springs Road home.
More than a month later, Payne's daughter, Laura Ann Payne, 33, of 304 Chambers St., and her boyfriend, Edward Eugene Gaines, 36, of 1 E. Ninth St., were captured in Michigan and charged with murder in connection with Jozell Payne's death.
Warrants revealed more charges against both suspects, including charges related to the theft of the victim's vehicle and two guns.
Laura Payne and Gaines were each charged with felony counts of murder and false imprisonment and three counts of felony theft by taking.
Laura Payne was also charged with probation violation as well as felony counts of aggravated identity fraud and harboring a sex offender.
Police have not said how Jozell Payne died.
Father charged in son's death
Police do not believe that Johnny Wayne Craig deliberately killed his son, but he was charged with murder because he was a convicted felon who had a gun.
Steven L. Craig, 22, was killed in April in a wooded area off Black's Bluff Road.
Johnny Wayne Craig, 47, of 268 Black's Bluff Road, was charged with felony murder, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. He was convicted of burglary in 1990.

Wydowna Spider
Comments477this wiki
Redirected from Daughter of Arachne
To better cover the various aspects of the subject matter, this article has been split into one main page and several subpages. Select which one you wish to read. |
Wydowna Spider is a humanoid spider. Under the title Daughter of Arachne, she was introduced to Monster High as a prototype seen at San Diego Comic-Con International 2011, where she was part of the vote for the next new character. She placed second, earning only just a few votes less than first place, but was made part of the Monster High world anyway in 2013.
Contents |
Given the fact that Wydowna Spider plays a villainous role in Polterghoul's story, she is likely someone with a mean streak.
She is also hinted as appearing in the Ghoulfriends books, where it seems she is responsible for some of the strange happenings which occur in the story.
As a humanoid black widow spider, Wydowna possesses six arms, fangs, and six red eyes, of which the lowest two are human-like in appearance. Her skin is black and her hair red. She has a widow's peak that is visible when her fringe is curled backwards.
Classic MonsterEdit
Arachne was a weaver who bragged about her weaving abilities, and the Greek goddess Athena got annoyed and challenged Arachne to a weaving contest. Arachne accepted, and the picture she weaved was actually better than Athena's. Athena got mad and made Arachne hang herself with what thread was left from the weaving, but then regretted it and turned her into a spider, cursed to weave her webs for the rest of her life.
She is Arachne's daughter.
None of her friends are known of at the moment.
Contest descriptionEdit
The Daughter of Arachne is one of the newest ghouls to hit the Monster High scene! Moan no more, if you like her the beast, then vote! Keep in mind - all Monster High designs and doll names are subject to change.
The Daughter of Arachne is the beast multi-tasking monster I've seen in centuries (her multiple limbs really give her a leg up on the competition)! Which ghoul do you think should be the next MH character?
- July 21, 2011: Wydowna Spider is one of the contenders in the San Diego Comic-Con International doll contest under the name Daughter of Arachne.
- July 23, 2011: Wydowna Spider's contest description is posted on the Monster High Facebook account.
- August 11, 2011: Wydowna Spider is announced to not have won the San Diego Comic-Con International doll contest.
- June 25, 2012: Mattel requests the trademark for Wydowna Spider.
- Early January, 2013: Wydowna Spider is featured in the Polterghoul comic booklet.
- May 7, 2013: Wydowna Spider is semi-revealed to be the San Diego Comic-Con International exclusive of 2013 through MattyCollector.com.
- May 15, 2013: Wydowna Spider is fully revealed to be the San Diego Comic-Con International exclusive of 2013 through MattyCollector.com and the Gory Gazette.
- July 17, 2013: Wydowna Spider's first doll is for sale at San Diego Comic-Con International.
- The name "Wydowna Spider" is black widow-inspired play on "Winona Ryder", a USAmerican actress whose acting contains a role in the 1988 comedy horror movie Beetlejuice.
- Prior to Wydowna receiving her name, one of the suggested fan names was Spiderella. As well, when the Threadarella trademark was found, for a while fans suspected it was her name-to-be, but that rumor was debunked by inside sources. It is likely that the name of Wydowna's superheroine's alter-ego, Webarella, is a nod to the fans on top of a reference to Vampirella.

Shaun Gladwell presents a solo exhibition at Schunck*, The Netherlands
5 Aug 2011
Martha Schwendener reviews Shaun Gladwell's solo exhibition at the Wadsworth Atheneum.
4 Aug 2011
Mike Parr's work is included in The Devil Had a Daughter, an exhibition of Australian artists at Monash University Museum of Art.
The Devil Had a Daughter reflects an enduring fascination with allegorical, theatrical and macabre imagery apparent throughout the history of printmaking. Developed by MUMA Curator Kirrily Hammond, and drawing upon various forms of printmedia such as the artist's book, performative works, found printed matter, architectural installations, as well as longer standing print traditions, this exhibition aims to open up the definition of printmaking towards an expanded understanding of its role and form in contemporary art. The exhibition also includes Pat Brassington, Tony Garifalakis, Jason Greig, Petr Herel, Dylan Martorell, David Noonan, Stuart Ringholt and Sally Smart. It runs until 1st October. |

Ask a Question About 'BRS 4 Stage Value PLUS RO/DI System - 75GPD'
Previously Asked Questions
by Matt on February 21, 2013, @9:10 PM
what is the required input water pressure for this unit to operate?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Matt,
The 75gpd membranes are specified at 75gpd at 50psi (and 77F temp). They will operate with reduced performance down to around 30ish psi, below that a booster pump would be necessary in order for it to operate (and would likely still be a good idea from 30-40psi). -
by Brooks on March 25, 2013, @3:49 PM
Hi there,
Does this system come with everything needed to start the system?
BrooksBulk Reef Supply Hey there,
It comes with the unit, the filters, 10ft of each color tubing and 2 different adapters for connecting to your water supply. Should be all set right from the get-go! -

I would like a replacement filter kit,though I did not see one.thank you
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Dennis,

Is the resin in the DI cartridge on the BRS 4 RO/DI the color changing type?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Ed,
It sure is. We include color changing DI resin inside of a refillable cartridge on all of our RO/DI units. -
by Dave on January 12, 2013, @12:10 PM
how would i know when to change to the filters on the ro/do
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Dave,
The 4 stage Plus has a variety of tools on it to help you know its time to change the filters. The TDS meter will give you the best heads up on when to change your DI stage. When your DI resin is still good you can expect to get 000 TDS out of the DI stage. When you see that go up its time to change your DI. The TDS meter can also help you figure out when its time to change your prefilters as well. While there isn't a specific number as it will vary with water quality, if you see a big increase in the TDS going into the DI it would indicate you may need to change your prefilters. As pre filters clog it will also usually be indicated by a drop in pressure on the pressure gauge.
As a rule of thumb as well, you can generally expect to change the sediment filter at 3000 gallons and the carbon block at 6000 gallons. Note: this is in total gallons (waste+product).
Value systems are smaller, portable and affordable. The BRS 4 Stage Value PLUS Reverse Osmosis/Deionization System includes all the essential features necessary to start making pure RO/DI water at 75 gallons per day. Plus an air-filled pressure gauge, membrane flush kit and HM Digital Dual Inline TDS meter.
4 Stages of Filtration:
- Purtrex 5 Micron depth sediment filter
- MATRIKX CTO 5 Micron carbon block
- 75 GPD Dow Filmtec Membrane
- Single Deionization(DI) stage with refillable cartridge
PLUS Features:
- Air-filled Pressure Gauge (100 psi) to help ensure the RO system is performing properly
- Membrane Flush Kit to help maintain RO membrane
- HM Digital Dual Inline TDS (total dissolved solids) Meter to help monitor system
Parts Bag Includes:
- Filter wrench to tighten and loosen canisters
- Chrome faucet connector to make a non-permanent connection to kitchen sink
- Utility sink/garden hose adapter to make a non-permanent connection to garden hose or laundry tub
Standard Features:

Welcome to the world, Sam! And what a sweet little guy he is! As soon as he arrived at my studio with his parents, he woke up from his nap and was raring to go! I laughed out loud when I first saw this image on my computer! He has a look that says: "Hmmmm. …
About Me…
Photography came into my life in 1999 when I spent three weeks hiking through the national parks of Midwest America; including a blister-inducing rim-to-rim trek of the Grand Canyon! How can you not take more than a few pictures in jaw-dropping natural beauty like this??? Twenty-two disposable cameras later and a $400 developing fee pretty much told me I was hooked. Since then, I've been honing my skills through a religious diet of endless practice!
The world of photography has changed so much so quickly, and I love how I'm challenged and inspired each day to be fresh and innovative. The best part of my job has been to witness some of the happiest moments in the lives of my clients.
In the end, above all else, I hope to create photos that you will always love.
Simple. Honest. Real.
This is what I give to you.

Last I did was when I was at a funeral, seemed like the right thing to do at the time.
My uniform certainly. Gotta love polyester! Other wise "nope".....I'm a non-fashion aware jeans and tshirt old man.
generally, im not a tucker
"not when he looked so fierce"
Almost daily. Let the hoes check the package. Ohhh
When I was in kindergarten I used to tuck my shirt into my panties. I thought it was more convenient.
because i am a professional with a professional career, of course i tuck my shirt into my pants. but when i'm not at work, weddings, funerals, or work related and/or society functions, i rarely tuck in. and god help any fool i see with a t-shirt tucked into their pants or shorts. loolz. i'll kill em.
you just don't turn it off.
Usually it's fat people who dont tuck.

"I own the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco (2SA equipment package) and couldn't be happier. This Malibu is the quietest interior of any vehicle I've owned. The new Chevrolet MyLink radio is fantastic and I use the hidden compartment behind the radio all the time. I'm currently getting right at 36 MPG on the highway and have an overall average of 27 MPG. If you are in the market for a midsize car and want the latest technology, luxury features like a sunroof, back-up camera, and heated leather seating, and great fuel efficiency, then you should consider the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 300
overall rating 9 of 10rating detailsPros: "Handling, quietness of ride"
Cons: "Backseat legroom"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"The new 2013 Chevy Malibu is an attractive, comfortable mid-sized four door sedan. This car features a lot of impressive technology under the Chevrolet "MyLink" banner which displays the car's stereo and Bluetooth smartphone functions, among other things, on a large 7-inch screen in the center of the dashboard. Chevrolet's OnStar system is featured as well, something that is little more than a cell-phone subscription for your car. There's a backup camera as well, which The view from the rear view camera is displayed here. It's fortunate that this car includes a rear view camera because the rear view from the driver's seat is very poor. Those who prefer a more firm feel and much lumbar support will appreciate the seats in this car. This driver finds them comfortable, even on long trips. Others who prefer a softer surface may consider the seating hard and uncomfortable. Interior fit and finish is good on the LT trim. Some might find the two-toned seat color schemes on higher trim levels a bit gaudy and unrefined. All seats are quite firm regardless of whether they're leather or cloth. This car is very, very quiet, possibly the most quiet cabin this driver has ever been in. Wind noise is virtually non-existent at any speed. Handling and especially steering are excellent, but may take some getting used to depending upon the driver's experience with previous vehicles. This driver transitioned into the Malibu from a GMC Envoy, which has completely different handling characteristics. This driver also owns a classic, 1971 Chevy Impala which stands in sharp contrast to the 2013 Malibu in many ways. The Malibu demonstrates how far automotive technology has come over the years. The 2013 Malibu is a sure-footed, nimble and responsive car but offers minimal road feel. This is like the best of both worlds in that the driver enjoys many of the characteristics of a larger car without every road imperfection being transmitted to the driver. It's no exaggeration to say that on the highway, the spirit of land yachts like my 1971 Chevy lives on in the 2013 Malibu. Like it's ancestors, this is a car to just point and cruise down the highway! But unlike them, this is a thoroughly modern, refined car and delivers a ride that is remarkably responsive and handles as well if not better than a much smaller car. One of the factors at play behind the the Malibu's handling is electrically assisted power steering which is very light and sensitive for this driver's tastes. This is where the transition from another vehicle really comes into play. Driving a car with steering that is as sensitive as the Malibu's does take some getting used to, but its worth it. The payback comes in the form of a car which handles like a sports sedan on a winding country road, and is an almost effortless cruiser on on a long highway drive. Again, the best of both worlds. The 2.5 liter engine - which is the same as that found in the Cadillac ATS - is smooth and competent most of the time, however, there have been other times where it seems lacking in confidence and torque. However, the 6-speed transmission is smooth and delivers a consistently refined performance whether on the freeway or driving at slower speeds. Fuel economy averages around 26 MPG, which is just about average for it's segment. This driver doesn't have any problem with the roominess of this sedan (except for back seat leg room) and the mileage is impressive for a car of this size. This car's styling, which has taken cues from the Camaro, is a very handsome car. The overall build quality is quite good, the paint and fit and finish on the exterior are are outstanding. The sticker price for the LT trim level is in the mid twenties, but a good deal can save you thousands of dollars. In this driver's case, the sticker price was $25.5K which was negotiated to $21.5K with another $5.5 shaved off from that for my 2003 GMC Envoy with 112K miles. $16,000 plus a 10 year old SUV for a brand new car that looks great and is fun to drive. This driver is very happy with this deal and the value, and looks forward to many miles of driving in the years ahead."

"I had a deal going on a 2013 Accord until I checked the internet and found the new Malibu.I did not buy the eco and got into the turbo for under $19,000.00. It's comfortable, gets great gas milage, has all the good stuff that you want in a car, plus it is easy to get in and out of with the electric adjustable seats.This car has amazing power for a 4 cylinder.

MIMA June Event: The Future of Connected Cities
Nigel Jacob / Co-Founder / New Urban Mechanics, City of Boston
Scaling innovation to meet the needs of modern citizens
We're living in an increasingly connected world. We've got Nike FuelBands measuring our every move, white men are wearing Google Glass, plants telling us when they need to get watered, and diapers telling us when they've been, uh, watered. But while personal technology adapts to meet our changing lifestyles, are our environments doing the same?
It depends on where you live.
Nigel Jacob is the co-founder of New Urban Mechanics at City of Boston's, and the work of Nigel and his group has earned Boston the reputation of one of the nation's leading connected cities. Nigel and his group have focused their attentions not on digitizing enterprise back-end solutions, but rather on user experience for Boston's citizens. They've scaled their efforts by focusing on micro-projects of $10,000 or less, none more successful than their maintenance-request app, Citizens Connect, which as been dowloaded more than 16,000 times and replicated in more than 20 countries.
For this discussion, Nigel will discuss large-scale innovation and the processes and tools involved, changes in how people and society interact with technology over time, how to connect cities and large groups of people and technology and communications, and the values and characteristics inherent to communications mediums.
If your job involves large-scale social initiatives, crowd-sourcing, interacting with big data, or you're just interested in hearing from one of pioneers of building the cities of the future, register now, and join us on June 19, 2013 from 5:30-7:00 PM.

Samsung E800 Review
Phone rating: Review: August 2004. Updated April 2007. The Samsung E800 features Samsung's new slide design, in common with the D500. The slide motion is semi-automatic, which means that a gentle push will make the slide mechanism open and close automatically. The keypad is rather small, and some people may find this to be a problem, especially if you have larger than average hands. The E800 features 64-voice polyphonic ringtones and a 64,000 colour display that is crisp and easy to see, even outdoors. With a VGA camera (including flash), multimedia messaging and Java games, the E800 certainly offers most features that you would expect. The E800 also includes some advanced voice features to help make conversations easier. The phone automatically senses the volume of the background noise and will increase the volume and clarity of the incoming call to make it more audible. The E800 is also the first phone in the world to incorporate Noise Cancellation Functionality technology, which actually suppresses excess ambient noise from around the person speaking so that the person receiving a call can hear the caller loud and clear. The integrated speakerphone incorporates a state-of-the-art echo cancellation technology and incorporates both noise cancellation and voice clarity functions to let you speak more freely on the fly or in the car. One feature that is noticeable by its absence is Bluetooth wireless connectivity, which one might expect in a phone at this price. We originally awarded the E800 4 stars, but following persistent reports by users of a variety of problems (read the user reviews below), we have downgraded it to 1 star. There are a number of problems with the E800 - first there seem to be real problems on the O2 network (and possibly with other networks, but to a lesser extent) with the E800 dropping calls, shutting down in the middle of calls and refusing to send or receive text messages. If you are going to buy the E800 we would really recommend that you don't buy it on O2, especially as O2 seem to be unwilling to acknowledge that there is any kind of problem with the phone on their network. Secondly, the E800 seems to be a lot less reliable than other Samsung phones, with reports of it freezing, the screen breaking and other kinds of hardware failures. We would recommend that you avoid the E800 and either go for the Samsung D500, or if your budget doesn't allow for that, then choose one of Samsung's clamshell phones such as the E600 or E330 instead. Features of the Samsung E800 include:

Discussion on:
Computers are getting smaller and smaller. Can you think of circumstances where a pico motherboard would be beneficial? Do you or your organization have uses for a pico board like the EPIA-P910.
While I understand this size mobo may be a nitch market and thus short runs of this type unit drives up cost, it's too pricey for the weekend PC builder.
how about about in high end boats,planes, busses. i can think of a whole lot of places. come on lots of places other than on a desktop. It's small form factor alows for placement just about any where you would not want a destop takeing up space.
As others have said the options are endless. This could take the Smart TV's in a whole new direction!
I'm in K12 and this would be nice if someone would put it in a box to hang off the back of a monitor. The appropriate length cables would sell me completely on it. I don't need an optical drive or much more than what Windows needs as far as storage. I am paying $350 for recycled SFF dual-core desktops with 60GB SSDs. I'd be willing to go to $450 new per machine for the kind of power and footprint the Pico is offering.
Specifically ripped Blu Rays, with audio reduced to mediocre quality 2 channel. Very different from 1080p streaming. I have a large library of ripped blu ray movies, and would like to build a new, smaller HTPC, but need something I know will be a solid, stutterless, liquid smooth performer without a hiccup; and I know that ripped stereo-blu ray files require more out of the graphics than streaming 1080p youtube. If you could comment on how it would play, say an Avatar blu ray rip, that would be awesome! Thanks!
I'd say as long as you stick with efficient codecs like h.264 "High Profile" MP4 format, the VIA hardware should do just fine. Mind you, this based on my limited usage to date and I haven't tried others formats, but I honestly don't see it choking on the media unless you want to play something bitrate intense like 4K video.
When are these sheep going to wake-up and stop using that bloat ware called Windows??
I was a fan of the VIA miniboards until I found that they don't support Linux very well so now I use Intel Atom boards for my 1U servers and embedded systems. When is this going to change?
I sadly have to agree with you on that. The driver support for Linux is simply not there. The ChromotionHD drivers from VIA aren't even KMS drivers, meaning they aren't going to really work well with modern Linux distros past the 2.6.xx kernel series ever since UMS was given the boot.
While not a pico board, I can confirm this atom based mini board (I built for personal use) works beautifully as a web server, email server and DNS server, all running Debian Linux.
Furthermore, it runs at about 25w (including the power brick) and is silent.
http://soslug.org/wiki/lunchbox_server and you can see how it was built.

The Los Alamos Hilltopper volleyball program isn't wasting any time getting its fan base jazzed for the upcoming season. In fact, the Hilltoppers aren't even waiting for the end of this school year. Los Alamos will host a 2013 Review-Preview Friday night at Griffith Gymnasium. The event is exactly what it sounds like: a look back at the past and a look ahead to the future. The highlight of the night will be the alumni game at 7:30 p.m. Several past Hilltoppers, including soon-to-be graduates of the high school, are scheduled to take part. "We're making more of a volleyball night for everybody," new Hilltopper head coach Robin Reynolds said. Among about 10 alumni Reynolds said is expected to take part in the alumni contest is senior Danielle Ortiz. Ortiz, one of the top defensive players in recent school history, was recently awarded a walk-on roster spot at the University of New Mexico for next season. Los Alamos had a successful 2012, reaching the Class 4A semifinals for the third consecutive season. Unfortunately, Los Alamos was eliminated from the playoffs for the fifth consecutive season by St. Pius X. Prior to the alumni game, Los Alamos' returning high school and middle school players will be in action, followed by a game featuring graduating senior boys from LAHS.

All who are led by God's Spirit are God's sons and daughters. 15 You didn't receive a spirit of slavery to lead you back again into fear, but you received a Spirit that shows you are adopted as his children. With this Spirit, we cry, " Abba, Father. " 16 The same Spirit agrees with our spirit, that we are God's children. 17 But if we are children, we are also heirs. We are God's heirs and fellow heirs with Christ, if we really suffer with him so that we can also be glorified with him.

1. | Gremlin | ||
Analagous to their malevolent movie counterparts, the modern-day Gremlin is most often found on weekends in between the hours of 1800 and 0400. When in its passive form, the Gremlin is most often a well-intentioned and meaningful contributor to society. However, when provoked (usually by means of an ex-girlfriend or obnoxious fool at the bar), the Gremlin first becomes forlorn and introspective, then mischevious, and in some cases violent. If you encounter a fully manifested Gremlin, you are advised to stay clear (especially when the Gremlin is in a doorway). If you feel the need to intervene, it has been said a trip to Burger King can passify the creature. The Gremlin will return to its natural state by morning, usually feeling embarassed and apologetic. "Ryan and Pat went so Gremlin last night. They painted Blaine's car!"
"If you don't call me back I am going to go Gremlin." |

EMCC women claim 3-2 overtime soccer win; Lions fall 4-1 in nightcap to Northwest Mississippi |
SCOOBA, Miss. – Freshman Nikeisha Noel recorded her third hat trick of the season to lead the East Mississippi Community College women's soccer team to a 3-2 home overtime win over Northwest Mississippi CC Wednesday afternoon at the EMCC Soccer Field. The Lions dropped a 4-1 decision to the Rangers in the nightcap of the North Division twinbill. Noel provided EMCC's lone goal of the opening half on an assist from sophomore keeper Lacey Mangrum of Hernando, as the Lady Lions trailed Northwest, 2-1, at the intermission. Noel tied up the contest at 2-2 with her second goal of the match coming around the 20:00 mark of the second half on an assist by freshman Alex Shelton of West Point. Four minutes into the 10-minute overtime session, Noel netted the game-winner after receiving another keeper punt by Mangrum, who initiated the winning play by intercepting a Northwest corner kick. Coupled with last Saturday's 3-2 non-division triumph over Judson College of Marion, Ala., the EMCC women are 3-4 overall and 1-2 in North Division action. A member of Trinidad & Tobago's Under-20 National Team, Noel leads the Lady Lions with 12 goals on the season. In addition to her three goals against NWCC, she previously notched a hat trick versus Itawamba Community College last week along with a five-goal effort in EMCC's season-opening victory over East Central CC on Aug. 22. The Lions, now 0-6-1 overall and 0-4 in division play, gave up two early goals to the Rangers in the opening half to trail, 2-0, at the break. EMCC's lone score of the men's contest came late in the second half on freshman Leonardo Reyes' third goal of the campaign. "The women started to relax early in today's match and allowed Northwest to have some first-half opportunities," EMCC head soccer coach Junior Noel said. "To our credit, we picked up the intensity in the second half and allowed them very few scoring chances following halftime. With our limited numbers on the men's side, we're continuing to struggle with putting effective combinations together out there on the field," Noel continued. The East Mississippi soccer teams conclude the home portion of their 2008 schedule Friday by playing host to Jones County Junior College. The 2 p.m. women's match will be followed by a 4 p.m. men's contest at the EMCC Soccer Field. |
