Titan Dual X Holder TTC-SC07TZ(RB) Review
Many high end reference video cards come with blower motors in them that are loud, but push a good amount of air at high RPM. Most video cards come standard with fan impellers that operate much more quietly in comparison. Low end cards may be passively cooled by a larger than normal heat sink and adding a fan to this would give it better cooling. Consumers have a few options to combat heat and noise, such as better case cooling, different video card heat sinks, or fans/blower motors attached to the expansion slots to help ventilate the area. TITAN has provided for review a dual-fan expansion slot device called the Dual X Holder TTC-SC07TZ(RB) that offers fan speed control to help cool the motherboard and video card!
Closer Look:
The front of the box has a picture of what to expect with the product, except that the cables have been removed from the image. The fans can be replaced with any size fan ranging from 60 to 90mm and up to 25mm depth. The fan farthest from the bracket can be mounted facing the side of the device at a 90° angle. The fans are connected to a fan controller that is adjustable on the expansion slot to fine tune the system performance between noise and heat. The back of the box has the features that are shown in pictures with descriptions underneath in English. To the right, the features are translated into eight more languages. The bottom right has a picture for the included accessories and device specifications. The bottom left has several recycling images and the words "Save the Earth Save the Trees." The top and bottom continue on with the box styling, with the company contact information on the bottom side.
Everything comes out of the box in a bubble wrap bag. The accessories are arranged in three baggies that contain two L-brackets for 90° mounting with two extra screws/nuts, longer screws for deeper fans, and two expansion slot screws. A manual is included and shows how to install the device normally and also how to mount the second fan differently.
Time to get a closer look at the device itself!

MOSCOW, Feb. 20 (UPI) -- Russia says it will develop measures to protect the country and its citizens from falling meteorites like the one that exploded over the Urals last week.
The announcement comes days after a meteorite entered the Earth's atmosphere undetected by existing space-monitoring systems and exploded, creating a massive shock wave that blew out windows and damaged thousands of buildings around the city of Chelyabinsk, injuring 1,200 people in the area.
"None of the existing systems, either Russian or American, detected this space object until it entered the atmosphere," Boris Shustov, director of the Astronomy Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said Wednesday.
The Russian Aerospace Defense Forces will develop a series of measures aimed at protecting against possible future threats, RIA Novosti reported.
"The Aerospace Defense Forces have been ordered to handle this issue and come up with a plan to protect Russia from these "space travelers,'" Maj. Gen. Igor Makushev, commander of the western military district's aviation arm, said.

January 23, 2013 09:02 ET
SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwire - Jan 23, 2013) -
Serena Software, the leader in Orchestrated IT solutions, today announced the results of an annual survey on application development and delivery priorities and initiatives for 2013. The survey, conducted at Gartner's recent Application Architecture, Development and Integration (AADI) Summit, showed delivering applications faster and aligning IT to business goals as the highest priorities for 2013. These findings underscore the trend that online enterprises have elevated themselves past departmental IT concerns. Instead, the survey results show they are now focusing on the competitive goals of the business itself.
The third survey of its kind, the research uncovered changing IT priorities, as both reducing application costs and moving applications to the cloud were reported much less of a priority in 2013 compared to last year. Both fell multiple spots on the one to ten number scale of priority, the same measurement tool used in last year's survey as well.
A graphic summarizing the survey findings can be found here: http://ser.so/app-dev-infographic.
Almost a hundred survey respondents -- many senior level IT executives from financial services, public sector, IT services and healthcare organizations -- reported that release management continues to be a major challenge, especially important due to IT's priority of meeting the increasing demands from the business. Almost two-thirds of the respondents reported they release more applications, yet feel the process is less than optimal. In fact, 11 percent reported more than five times the number of releases than last year. Another 47 percent reported they are actively improving their release management systems.
The survey also covered top Application Development initiatives for 2013. For the third year in a row, managing applications as a business process came in as the most important initiative for the coming year. End-to-end traceability and application development tool integration remain unchanged from last year's survey, coming in at number two and three respectively. While priorities have shifted over the last two years from cost-focused to business-focused, the research shows a process-based approach remains paramount for IT success.
Other survey results revealed:
Serena orchestrates IT for enterprise organizations across the end-to-end application delivery lifecycle. IT organizations can coordinate disparate processes, multiple tools and globally distributed teams from initial business request, all the way to final production release. Serena helps IT engage more rapidly and accurately with the business, accelerate globally distributed water-scrum-fall development and deliver applications more frequently into production -- all while maintaining enterprise visibility and compliance to corporate and regulatory standards.
Supporting Quote
"This year's survey clearly indicates that IT has reached its goal of being seen as just as important to overall company success as the other key business groups. With that responsibility comes expectations, however, and now IT has a whole new level of challenges," said Miguel Tam, senior product marketing manager at Serena Software. "In order to deliver on these new business-focused expectations, IT requires an integrated, end-to-end process for IT to repeatedly and consistently deliver quality apps. Squeezing out costs has taken a back seat to delivering what the business really needs -- the delivery of quality applications. Speed and business alignment will take priority over development costs and efficiency -- a first in the world of app dev."

Integrated Disability Management System
· Name of project.
Integrated Disability Management System
· Unique project identifier.
· Privacy Impact Assessment Contact.
Ticket Operations and Provider Support
Office of Employment Support Programs
Social Security Administration
6410 Security Boulevard
Baltimore, MD 21235
· Describe the information to be collected, why the information is being collected, the intended use of the information and with whom the information will be shared.
The Integrated Disability Management System (IDMS) is a Social Security
Administration (SSA) certified and accredited General Support System consisting
of several sub-systems. IDMS uses
as its master file the Disability Control File System (DCFS), which is the
master repository containing the permanent adjudication history for all SSA's
Title II (Retirement, Survivors, Disability Insurance) and Title XVI
(Supplemental Security Income) programs' disability claims, including denied,
terminated and active claims. Essentially
IDMS is the project name for the DCFS (DCFS being the previous name for the
project); thus, they are one and the same.
DCFS contains disability decision data beginning with the Initial Claim decision and continuing throughout the life of the claim. It contains Title II and Title XVI earnings history and is the official repository for Title II earnings verification data and Trial Work Period data. The DCFS is also the repository for Continuing Disability Review (CDR) and Ticket to Work data and is used to control Medical and Work CDRs, Ticket (eligibility, use, assignment and termination), as well as tracking Expedited Reinstatement claims processed. It is also used to control Employment Network payments for the Ticket to Work program. DCFS controls the CDR Enforcement Operation that produces alerts when disabled beneficiaries return to work. The DCFS is integrated and used by other systems such the Master Earnings File and the Debt Management System.
We generally disclose this information only as necessary to pay benefits to claimants, make payments to entities contracted by SSA to provide services to Title II and Title XVI disabled beneficiaries, or as authorized by Federal law. IDMS is not accessible to members of the public.
· Describe the administrative and technological controls that are in place or that are planned to secure the information being collected.
IDMS has undergone authentication and security risk analyses. The latter includes an evaluation of security and audit controls proven to be effective in protecting the information collected, stored, processed, and transmitted by our information systems. These include technical, management, and operational controls that permit access to those users who have an official "need to know." Audit mechanisms are in place to record sensitive transactions as an additional measure to protect information from unauthorized disclosure or modification.
We protect the information in the IDMS by requiring employees who are authorized to access the information system to use a unique Personal Identification Number. In addition, we store the computerized records in secure areas that are accessible to those employees who require the information to perform their official duties. Furthermore, all of our employees who have access to our information systems that maintain personal information must sign a sanction document annually that acknowledges penalties for unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, such information.
· Describe the impact on individuals' privacy rights.
Are individuals afforded an opportunity to decline to provide information?
We collect information only where we have specific legal authority to do so in order to administer our responsibilities under the Social Security Act. When we collect personal information from individuals, we advise them of our legal authority for requesting the information, the purposes for which we will use and disclose the information, and the consequences of their not providing any or all of the requested information. The individuals can then make informed decisions as to whether or not they should provide the information.
Are individuals afforded an opportunity to consent to only particular uses of the information?
When we collect information from individuals, we advise them of the purposes for which we will use the information. We further advise them that we will disclose this information without their prior written consent only when we have specific legal authority to do so
(e.g., the Privacy Act).
· Does the collection of this information require a new system of records under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a) or an alteration to an existing system of records?
IDMS does not require a new Privacy Act system of records or an alteration to an existing system of records. IDMS uses information that is collected and maintained for purposes related to other business processes for which there are currently Privacy Act systems of records in existence. For example, benefit eligibility and payment data in IDMS are covered by systems of records, such as the National Disability Determination Services (60-0044); Completed Disability Record-Continuing Disability Determinations (60-0050); Master Beneficiary Record (60-0090); Supplemental Security Income Record and Special Veterans Benefits (60-0103); and eWork System (60-0330).

A common behavior in Christian cultures. Consists of insisting how Christlike you are. A "Christier than thou" way of acting. This is used by many Christians whether they are generally nice people or disgusting POS's. The traits that practitioner will claim to have are usually called love, charity, compassion, caring or forgiveness. Some practitioners merely declare their Charitas publicly. Others take you to task publicly for your lack of Charitas. This trait is a central feature of American culture.
"American exceptionalism" is a close relation to Pseudocharitas. Thus Obama can mow down Pakistani children because everybody knows how Christian he is.

2011 Major League Lacrosse Collegiate Draft Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: When is the MLL College Draft?
2. Q: Do I have to fill out any paperwork to be eligible for the Draft?
A: No, there is no paperwork to fill out, per NCAA rules. Only seniors with expiring eligibility
after the 2011 NCAA season are eligible to be drafted.
3. Q: How do I avoid jeopardizing my senior year of eligibility?
A: Simple. The MLL has already taken the steps to make sure that your being drafted by an MLL
team prior to the start of your senior season will in no way impact your eligibility to play
your final year.
As stated above in Point #2, we are not having players who are enrolled at NCAA institutions register to be part of the draft.
Once you are drafted, the MLL will not be offering or issuing you a contract or discussing terms of an agreement with you until your team's season (including postseason) is concluded. Major League Lacrosse is a single entity, so all players are employees of the League and not of the team that may draft them.
4. Q: Am I allowed to reach out to teams regarding the Draft?
A: To limit the distraction prior to the start of your senior season, the MLL has determined that
potential draftees are not to have any direct contact with MLL teams. The MLL has also
determined that teams are not allowed to have direct contact with any potential draftee. If
any MLL team makes direct contact with a potential player prior to the draft they will be in
violation of league rules and subject to MLL discipline.
5. Q: Are MLL coaches and General Managers allowed to contact my college coach?
A: Yes, our coaches and General Managers are allowed to contact your coaches to talk about
6. Q: Am I allowed to attend the Draft on January 21st?
A: No, MLL is not allowing any draft eligible players under any circumstance to attend the Draft.
7. Q: Will the Draft be broadcast on January 21st?
A: Yes, the draft will be streamed live on ESPN3.com from 8:30 pm – 11:00 pm. ESPN3.com is
available in 72 million homes in the US and on all college campuses. Major League Lacrosse
will also post all results on the League web site, facebook and twitter feeds.
8. Q: Can I accept any free team gear (hat, jersey, etc) from the team that selected me either during or after the Draft?
A: No, under NCAA rules that would be considered an extra benefit. MLL teams have been
instructed not to provide you with any league product, subject to severe League discipline. If
you do receive any free MLL team gear from anyone, please return it immediately and
contact your Compliance Office.
9. Q: During the Draft, what happens if a team or media outlet contacts me?
A: Per NCAA rules, you are allowed to speak with teams and various media outlets during and
after the Draft. There may be instances where the ESPN3.com broadcast team will reach out
to you for an interview during the Draft as part of the broadcast.
10. Q: During my 2011 season can I answer questions during an interview about playing in MLL?
A: Yes, you are allowed to answer questions regarding your plans for the summer. You are not
allowed to enter into an agreement to play (either written or verbally). As we addressed in
#3, the MLL will not be making you an offer or issuing you a contract until after your eligibility
has expired.
11. Q: Will I be able to sign a contact immediately following the Draft?
A: No, as stated above in #3, it is against NCAA rules to sign a contract with intent to play a
professional sport if you are still enrolled as a student-athlete. Contracts will be distributed
to you following the conclusion of your 2011 season.
12. Q: What happens if I am not selected in the Draft?
A: After the NCAA season is complete on Memorial Day, the MLL will allow all undrafted seniors who just completeld their eligability to register for the Player Pool for a one week period. After that, teams will be able to select you by using the normal MLL waiver wire process. Please note there is no such thing as being a free agent in the MLL, so all undrafted players will go through this process.

Despite a tumultuous year marked by uneven performance, capital returns and investor criticism of the hedge-fund industry, some of its biggest names are now comfortably in the black — and a few are in double-digit territory.
Third Point, Greenlight Capital, and SAC Capital were up 13.8 percent, 11.4 percent, and about 10 percent respectively through Oct. 31, according to investors and others familiar with their returns, reflecting some winning stock positions, like Greenlight co-founder David Einhorn's short position in Chipotle Mexican Grill, as well as other bets, like Third Point manager Dan Loeb's purchase of undervalued Greek bonds. Those performances came during a month where the average hedge fund fell about a half a percentage point, according to HFR, leaving the industry as a whole up about 4 percent.
Notwithstanding a handful of impressive hedge-fund performances, some investors have been tough on the industry as a whole, arguing that hedge fund returns should at least match the S&P 500, which earlier this fall was up more than 16 percent — a level higher than where most funds were performing. But since then the benchmark has given back some of that territory, and is now up only about 10 percent on the year.
Critics have also argued that hedge-fund fees are too high and that pulling capital in response to disappointing performance is too difficult. Late in October, some investors were particularly put off when Mark Yusko, who manages the $3.3 billion Endowment Fund, opted to "gate" or limit investor redemptions, marking an unwelcome return to a way of preserving hedge-fund investment capital that became popular during the financial crisis. (Read More: For Hedge Funds, a Half Percent Is the New Move)
To some, the increasing skepticism comes as no surprise in a world where the average hedge fund lost more than 5 percent of investor capital last year, according to HFR, and is underperforming blue-chip stocks to a considerable degree this year.
(Read More: Paulson Fund Losses Prompt Some Investors to Pull Out)
"Investors today are betting on a record year every year for hedge funds…and they're not paying enough attention to the size of the industry," says Simon Lack, an investment advisor who believes that at roughly $2 trillion in total assets under management, the hedge-fund business is simply too big to generate the outsize returns it enjoyed ten or more years ago. Even so, he adds, "there are some fantastic hedge funds and there are some happy clients."
Some of those clients are invested in Third Point, Greenlight, SAC, or PointState, the $5 billion hedge fund founded by alumni of Duquesne Capital, the revered hedge fund run by Stanley Druckenmiller, after he closed Duquesne two years ago. This past April, a management reshuffle at PointState left a new CEO, Zachary Schreiber, in charge, and the fund has found more solid footing since then, according to one of its investors, churning out 8.7 percent returns through October.
At the same time, fortunes are improving at some of the largest macro funds, funds that express a global economic outlook through everything from bonds to currencies. Moore Global, run by veteran trader Louis Moore Bacon, is up 4.16 percent through October, say people familiar with his performance, despite Bacon's recent decision to return investor capital amid a shortage of good market opportunities. (Read More: A Secretive Hedge Fund Legend Prepares to Surface)
Tudor BVI, the flagship fund of Paul Tudor Jones, is up 2.38 percent for the same period, say people familiar with its performance, and insiders say that Brevan Howard's multistrategy fund is up 2.6 percent.

Spiders, drywall and brass knuckles don't mix
SPOKANE, Wash. -- Many people have an irrational fear of spiders -- so irrational that they go to great lengths to get rid of them. Like a Spokane man, who decided to kill a spider in his bathroom by punching it with a set of brass knuckles.
YouTube user bignickbrother4, also known as Nick Runyan, a 2011 Mead High School graduate, posted the video Monday in which he discusses seeing "the most messed up thing" he's ever seen.
"I'm moving out of Spokane, not because of a job or anything, but because of spiders," Runyan said. "I found a spider in my bathroom and hands down it's the biggest spider I've ever seen."
He then proceeds to take the viewer on a trip down the hall where the spider -- and, granted, it's a pretty big spider -- hangs on the wall next to the sink.
"I want to kill this thing," Runyan said.
In order to kill the spider you need the right tool for the job, so Runyan, with camera still rolling, heads to another room, saying, "Lets find a weapon."
Sure, there are plenty of different things that can be used to kill a spider. A wad of toilet paper and a quick flush down the toilet; a rolled-up newspaper; but Runyan decides, as he walks across the house to another room, to go for something a little less subtle: a set of brass knuckles.
This obviously doesn't bode well for the spider.
Runyan heads back to the bathroom, makes a fist, reels back and delivers a haymaker on the spider, then a second one for good measure.
It's only after the second punch that he stops, looking reflectively for several moments at the camera, and realizes that not only did he kill the spider, but also punched a fist-sized hole through the bathroom wall.
"I messed up," he concludes. "I just messed up."
The video ends with Runyan preparing to face the repercussions of his spider killing.

Whitesboro Boys Coach Dies in Accident
The town of Whitesboro is mourning the loss of their High School Boys Basketball Coach today following a tragic car accident shortly before noon today in Southern LeFlore County. According to a fatality accident report issued by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, Ronald "Wayne" Tucker, 30, was driving a 2004 Lincoln Aviator westbound on State Highway 63 approximately 4.5 miles East of Muse just before Big Cedar when for unknown reasons the vehicle went left of center while making a curve. The report states Tucker then swerved left and right before overcorrecting into a broadslide. The vehicle then departed the roadway on the right and rolled two and a half times before hitting a tree. Tucker was ejected from the passenger door of the vehicle approximately six feet. Trooper Tim Baker stated in the report that Tucker died at the scene from massive injuries. Tucker was reportedly from the Talihina area before he moved to Edmond. When the High School Boys Basketball position became available he accepted it and moved back to the area. This was his first year as the Whitesboro Coach. Several area coaches have told PDN today that Tucker was very laid back and a good coach. Their hearts go out to the staff and students at Whitesboro.

Mine hovered around 90/60 (not terrible, but also not great) for years until the very end of my pregnancy when it finally went up a little bit (it got all the way up to 110/70 during the last couple weeks which is a really big deal for me). I would get occasional dizzy spells, but usually only when I would stand up from sitting or lying down. Last I checked, my BP was 100/60 - so pretty normal (low normal, but normal) - but that was almost a year ago and it's hard to say where I'm at now. I feel good, so I'm not too worried.
I found that snacking a lot throughout the day helped when my blood pressure was at it's lowest. Worry less about big meals and just nosh all. day. long. Nuts, cheese, fruits, and veggies are good to graze on. Tomato juice, like I mentioned, is great for low BP because it is high sodium and has lots of other vitamins and minerals. I get insane cravings for tomato juice sometimes, and I wonder if it reflects BP dips. It's hard to say, but it seems possible.
Also, light exercise can help. I walk a lot, and I feel much better because of it. A little non-strenuous exercise can help get your blood circulating better. Obviously, you don't want to do anything to rigorous, but a short walk every day can help. Have a snack first, and take juice, Gatorade, or water and a little snack along in case you need it. Sunshine, fresh air, and exercise are good for your state of mind too. As long as you don't overdo it (and that's important with low BP), a little exercise is all around good for you.
Good luck with everything! Keep us posted on how things are going; I'm really pulling for you to start feeling better.

Cards seek another offensive outburst in home opener vs. Reds
The St. Louis Cardinals' offense put on quite a show on the road ahead of the club's 2013 home opener.
The Cards return to Busch Stadium following a six-game swing out west and they'll begin their home slate with the opener of a three-game set against the rival Cincinnati Reds.
St. Louis dropped two of three in Arizona to begin the season and were then shut out 1-0 on Friday in the opener of a three-game series against the defending champion San Francisco Giants. However, the Cards bounced back with a victory on Saturday before erupting for a nine-run fourth frame in Sunday's 14-3 win to take the series.
The Cardinals sent 14 men to the plate in that game-deciding frame as they chased Giants ace Matt Cain from the game. Matt Adams, Matt Carpenter and Carlos Beltran each drove in two runs in the inning, while Adams and Carpenter combined to go 6-for-9 with five RBI and four runs scored.
That offensive showcase allowed Adam Wainwright to cruise to his first victory of the season. He hurled seven innings of two-run ball and struck out six.
"Pitching against Matt (Cain) you have to take that 0-0 mentality," Wainwright said. "I cracked first and I thought I had to keep it there for us to have a chance. Our offense did an amazing job. Against a pitcher like that you never expect anything like that."
St. Louis' big offensive showing came with third baseman David Freese again out of the lineup after opening the season on the disabled list due to a strained lower back. Freese, though, could be activated prior to Monday's opener after hitting .293 last season with 20 homers and 79 RBI last season.
Taking the ball for the Cardinals in their home opener will be 26-year-old Jaime Garcia, who won the lone game of the series with the Diamondbacks last Tuesday.
Garcia lasted 5 2/3 innings, allowing a run on two hits, one a solo homer. He also walked four and struck out four, running his career record in April to 8-2 with a 2.00 earned run average in 15 starts.
The left-hander is 8-2 with a 3.33 ERA in 13 career meetings with the Reds, 11 of those starts.
Countering for the Reds will be Mat Latos, who began his second season with the club with a no-decision against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim on Wednesday.
Latos, a 25-year-old righty, struck out eight over 6 2/3 innings, but two of the seven hits he allowed were homers. He gave up three runs in total, but was denied a win due to a blown save.
Latos is 2-4 with a 9.00 ERA in seven previous meetings with the Cardinals.
Cincinnati has begun the 2013 season with consecutive series wins, taking two of three from both the Angels and Washington Nationals. The Reds claimed Sunday's rubber match with the Nats 6-3 thanks to a three-run sixth inning.
Brandon Phillips and Jay Bruce each had an RBI single in the frame and Bruce ended with three RBI.
"Both sides were scoring early at will. Neither one was sharp. I'm just glad we won the series," Reds manager Dusty Baker said.
Johnny Cueto earned the win, allowing three runs over six innings. He also struck out six, while Aroldis Chapman worked around a one-out double in the ninth to record his second save of the season.
The Cardinals went 8-7 versus the Reds last season, taking four of six at home.

(BPT) – That time of year is almost here – pro football championship Sunday. According to the National Chicken Council's 2012 Wing Report, the big game is the second biggest eating holiday after Thanksgiving. With the big game comes big prep and cleanup.
Even the most diligent person can't do it alone. While some may be intimidated by the mess left by overly excited fans, there are a few suggestions to help you get through the cleanup and salvage your home from the nacho cheese caked in the carpet and the deep drink spills on the couch.
"On game day for me, I'm typically entertaining outside across the country in stadium lots with my RV and the great football fans around the country. If some food or a drink spills outside, it's not a big deal … but inside my house … now that's a different story," says Joe Cahn, commissioner of tailgating and party planning legend. "Whether your tailgate celebration is in the stadium parking lot or in front of your big screen TV, you always need to be ready for a few unexpected food fumbles. Think ahead and be prepared for a thorough cleanup to ensure you are not missing out on any of the game day action."
Get your home back to pre-game conditions by following the following tips from Stanley Steemer and the Commissioner's personal game day cleanup playbook.
* Help your guests help you
Have garbage cans and recycling bins in an accessible and convenient location. If it is tough to find a garbage can, plates and cups are more likely to get stacked all over the house.
* Have a game plan for game day
An unwanted spill is inevitable on game day. Be prepared with a quality spot remover like Stanley Steemer Spot Remover, which can quickly and effectively remove most spills and spots around the house.
* Clean as you go
During commercials, grab a few friends and do a quick recycle run so that there's less clutter when the game is done. If someone helps … extra wings for them.
* Blitz quick on spills
Don't let the clock count down to zero on spills, especially with wine. Do yourself and your upholstery a favor and act immediately on them. Did a guest spill a little red on the couch? Use white wine to help fight the spot.
* Don't give up on stubborn spots
If your guests really did a number on the house, give yourself a break and get help from the pros. Stanley Steemer offers deep cleaning services to help clean your home top to bottom; from carpet and hardwood floors, to upholstery and tile.
Traditional at-home cleaning methods such as vacuuming and dusting only remove a relatively small portion of dirt, dust and particles that lurk in your floors and furniture. Without a deep cleaning, you'll be trapping dirt inside your home long after the party ends. Visit StanleySteemer.com to help recover from the game day celebration.

Expedia Chief Executive Dara Khosrowshahi said Hurricane Sandy is likely to ding the online travel company's results.
"I think it will hurt the results," Khosrowshahi told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" on Monday. "But right now what we're worried about is making sure that our customers are okay. We're in this for the long game."
He added: "So, a couple of million dollars hurting a quarter is not going to throw off our long-term plans. I don't even have an estimate right now."
(Read More: US Airlines Cancel Flights, Hotels Book Up Before Hurricane)
Call Volume Doubles Amid Sandy
The immediate priority is managing travel fallout from Hurricane Sandy. Expedia has staffed up call centers, and call volume has been double normal capacity. Expedia is working with partners to reaccommodate guests as much as possible, he said. "It's all hands on deck," said Khosrowshahi, as many flights have been cancelled and travelers have been bumped.
"There are a lot of unhappy customers, just because of the situation, and what we try to do is make it better for them," he said.
Growth in China, Mobile
Looking beyond Hurricane Sandy's impact, Khosrowshahi said the fastest growing part of their business is international, especially in Asia. "China, for example, is growing incredibly quickly for us," he said.
Expedia for the first time recently posted more room night bookings from international travelers than domestic travelers, the executive said. (Read More: China's Hotel Boom Catches a Second Wind)
More Expedia customers are also booking through mobile devices, Khosrowshahi said. Most mobile customers are last-minute bookers, who instead of looking up at street hotel signs for deals — look down on their smartphones for mobile-exclusive rates and deals.
In addition to more mobile bookings, booking trends are rising for the holidays — though consumers are focused on value. Consumers are booking vacations, but shortening stays, for example, to five days from seven, Khosrowshahi said. "Consumers still travel. They adjust their patterns," he said.
Other online travel agencies include Kayak Software and Priceline.

I think any violence against another person is dreadful and completely unacceptable. It's not a matter of gender at all and I'm not sticking up for your husband either. I obviously wasn't at any of these incidents that you describe both in the original and this latest round of revelations so can only commented on what you said. Domestic violence is something I have never been involved in and never will.
You admitted in your previous post that you had instigated arguments, spat and got physical. If you start things and wind someone up like that then surely you are old enough to know that they are going to retaliate in some way.. Let's face it if you dish it out you can expect it back. Behaviour like that is unacceptable, immature and as I said previously I think you need to get some professional help urgently. You asked for advice and comments and that's what I think. You are both at crisis point aren't you???? Or am I missing something here. It's time to act and sort yourself out.

The Rise and Fall of Justin Bieber, Taiwanese CGI Edition
Lest there be any doubt that Taiwanese animators are baiting us with their quaintly foreign CGI videos: "Internet Turns on Justin Bieber" dramatizes 4chan and Justin Bieber's syphilis rumor. It also shows baby Bieber clinging to a suspiciously phallic microphone.
Last time we encountered Next Media Animation, the Taiwanese animation firm was bringing Al Gore's crazed sexy poodle massage to life. (Before that, there was the Tiger Woods' affair video, as you may recall.) Now, NMA's attention turns to "Internet Turns on Justin Bieber":
The video begins with the genesis of Bieber: an ultrasound of a fetus clutching a— um— microphone?
Then, evil internet messageboard 4chan begins its vicious war of pranks. Bieber runs to an STD clinic to check if he has syphilis. Bieber gets sent to North Korea. Bieber checks out an issue of MILF magazine (?!) and finds a sexy picture of his mom.
Basically, my job just got outsourced to Taiwanese animators. [Buzzfeed]

NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin has compression fracture in lower back after crash
Denny Hamlin suffered a compression fracture in his lower back during Sunday's last-lap crash at Fontana, Calif.
Joe Gibbs Racing disclosed the injury Monday and said Hamlin was expected to be released soon from a Southern California hospital to return home. He has what is called an L1 compression fracture; essentially, the first vertebra in the lumbar section of his spine collapsed.
There was no immediate word on how long his recovery would take.
Hamlin was hurt during a crash with Joey Logano at the end of Sunday's race. He complained of lower back pain afterward.

E. Coli Linked to Swimming in Lake Minnetonka
ST. PAUL (AP) - State health officials have linked three cases of E.coli illness to one of the more popular lakes in the Twin Cities area.
The Minnesota Department of Health says three young adults got sick after swimming in the Big Island area of Lake Minnetonka July 4th. Health officials say one of the young people was hospitalized, but has since recovered.
Health department epidemiologist, Trisha Robinson, says it's the first waterborne outbreak of the summer and illustrates why it's important to take steps to prevent infection.
Health officials say swimmers shouldn't swallow lake water, should practice good hygiene and take children on bathroom breaks or change diapers often in a bathroom, not at the beach. Symptoms of E. coli can be similar to the flu.

Deskstation rPC44
The Deskstation Evolution Series rPC/44 is another ARC system. Based on the MIPS R4400 processor and ARC firmware it was targetting the Windows NT market.
The DeskStation system looks like many PC clones because it is based on an AT motherboard. The basic difference is the additional logic required for the R4000 bus to communicate with the EISA bus. The memory bus is only 32 bits wide, while the CPU itself has a 64-bit-wide path; therefore 512K of secondary cache is used to enhance performance. However, the cache structure was implemented like on the PC-AT, so to the R4000PC there was no secondary cache. The use of relatively slow cache memory, couple with the ill-matched PC-AT style memory architecture caused the 100MHz machine to feel more like a 486-DX33.
Linux Support
For a short time rPC44 support was being worked on and it eventually worked for one person in 1996. However, the perception was that it never reached any functional state, and any functional state that it had in Linux 1.1 was decayed. The rPC44 code has therefore been removed from Linux. At this point, only one DeskStation rPC44 is known to have survived, so support likely will never be restored.

Heading home from a long day of dirt-track car racing in Lebanon, Medford resident Pat Green was dozing in the back seat of a truck when she opened her eyes to see fire roaring out of a just-crashed vehicle in front of her.
She and three racing-team members were returning from a competition at Willamette Speedway when a car went off the road and struck a tree maybe a half-mile in front of them on Interstate 5 south of Roseburg.
It was a right-place-at-the-right-time moment for the members of the Medford-based Monte Bischoff Racing team. The car, with two 20-something people inside, crashed shortly after 2 a.m.
The team pulled the male driver from the wreckage and kept the fire at bay until emergency personnel arrived and extricated the female passenger.
"Had we not stopped, I don't think anybody else would have," said Green, 70. "I've never been more proud to be part of anything in my life. Those guys were absolutely amazing."
The team, which finished second at the competition, was returning home to Medford on I-5.
As they rounded a curve near exit 113, the tail lights in front of them disappeared.
"It kind of caught me by surprise. I saw taillights, and then I didn't see them anymore," said 41-year-old Ron Bray, who was driving at the time.
When Bray pulled over, he, 45-year-old Monte Bischoff and 33-year-old Dwayne Melvin leapt from the car.
"One of the guys yelled, 'Call 911,' " Green said. "I said, 'I got it.' "
Records from the Douglas County Sheriff's Department show the first 911 call came in at 2:13 a.m.
"The car was just demolished beyond recognition," Bischoff said.
The men's fire extinguisher wouldn't work, so they went with the next best option: the contents of their cooler. The poured bottled water, sodas and ice over the flames.
"It was just scary not being able to control the fire," Melvin said.
Using a jack, they broke out the rear driver-side window, reached inside and helped to recline the driver's seat back. Then, using a crowbar, they pushed the dash out of the way and pulled the driver to safety.
The female passenger, trapped in the wreckage, was harder to reach. The tempered fire had gotten a second wind, and the men had run out of liquids.
"We started using dirt, whatever we could find," Bischoff said. "We just didn't have enough fluids to get the fire completely out."
A police officer who arrived on scene used a small fire extinguisher on the flames, as Green watched and prayed.
"I was concerned for the guys," she said. "I was also praying like crazy that these people didn't die. I don't know if we could have lived with knowing that they had burned to death."
Firefighters arrived and extinguished the remaining flames. Records show the woman passenger was extricated by 3:26 a.m. The sheriff's department report didn't include names or the crash's official cause. No updates on the conditions of those pulled from the car were available.
More than an hour after they'd seen the crash, the team members resumed their trip to Medford, no longer dozing.
"We just thank God we were there when we were there," Bischoff said. "They would have burned up. There's no doubt in our minds."

Perfect Test
Hawks get challenge but remain unbeaten
The Bishop Hendricken baseball team hasn't played many close games this year and it wasn't really expecting one Friday with 1-5 Cranston East coming to town.
But when the Hawks found themselves in a very close game, they delivered.
With East's Anthony Perry holding down the Hawks like no pitcher has all season and the 'Bolts playing near-flawless defense behind him, Hendricken responded in kind. Mike McCaffrey tossed a complete-game shutout, his defense came up with several key plays and the offense finally broke through for a run in the sixth inning as the Hawks won 1-0 and ran their record to 7-0. They're the only unbeaten team in Division I.
"To be tested and come through with a tough win is great," said Hendricken head coach Ed Holloway. "It's easy when you win 8-0, 10-0. It's when you feel the pressure and you're able to come through with the win. It was a 1-0 game. It could have gone either way but the kids played tough."
Before Friday, Hendricken's only nail-biter was a 3-2 win over La Salle. Outside of that, they had out-scored opponents 58-5 in their other five games.
East wasn't ready to join that list. Perry, a junior right-hander, had frustrated Cranston West the week before in his first-ever varsity start. Using a sidearm delivery and an uncanny ability to throw strikes, he was even better against the Hawks. He walked one and scattered just three hits through five innings. His defense also turned two double plays, including a 5-3 twin-killing in the fourth that came when the Hawks had two runners on.
"He pitched a great game," Holloway said. "He threw strikes and he had that sidearm delivery. He was able to throw strike after strike after strike. He did a great job. We tried moving up in the box a little bit to get it early, but he was still tough."
Thankfully for the Hawks, McCaffrey was just as good. The sophomore lefty gave up base hits to the first two batters of the game but got out of the jam and then cruised. He gave up just one more hit and finished with five strikeouts.
The win was a nice gift for McCaffrey, who was celebrating his 16th birthday.
"I couldn't think of anything better," he said. "I felt like I didn't keep them off-balance enough in the first inning. They have some very good hitters. They know me and I know them. After that, I just changed my approach a little bit."
And eventually, the Hawks made a winner out of him.
Rob Henry led off the bottom of the sixth by lining a 1-2 pitch into center field for a single. Ed Markowski bunted him to second.
Perry fell behind No. 3 hitter Gian Martellini 3-1, but Martellini hit a hard grounder to third. Alex Figueiredo gloved it and threw to first for the second out.
With a base open, East elected to intentionally walk cleanup hitter Mike King. That brought up John Toppa, and the sophomore seized the opportunity. He roped an 0-1 pitch into left-center and Henry raced home with the go-ahead run.
"You could almost see the intentional walk getting him going," Holloway said. "He's a fierce competitor. He was able to come through, which is huge."
McCaffrey and the Hendricken defense made the slim lead stand up. Alex Corvese led off the seventh for East and battled through a seven-pitch at-bat before McCaffrey got him to chase a pitch on the outside corner for the strikeout.
Nick Ferry followed with a ground ball to shortstop, where Lou Umberto couldn't handle a tough hop. Ferry reached on the error, and two pitches later, he stole second, putting the tying run in scoring position.
But the Hawks came through. Matt Corey hit a soft line drive just beyond the infield dirt on the right side. Second baseman Matt Murphy ranged back and made the catch. Ferry was off the second base bag, and Murphy fired a strike to Umberto, who stepped on the base before Ferry slid back in for a game-ending double play.
"That was another excellent play," Holloway said. "Perfect timing on the throw. It's tough for baserunners when they're in no man's land but we were fortunate that Murph got to the ball. Then he made a great throw, and Lou was there."
While the Hawks made a handful of miscues in the field, plays like that saved the day. Martellini made a diving catch of a foul pop-up in the third inning and the Hawks turned a double play in the fourth.
In the fifth, they made the play of the day. With two outs and runners on first and second, East's Harold Corniel hit a ground ball to the hole between shortstop and third base. Umberto dove to stop it, rolled and threw from the ground to Markowski at third base for an inning-ending force-out. Had Umberto not stopped the ball, a run might have scored. Had he not made the throw to third, East would have had the bases loaded for Ivan Reyes, the team's best hitter.
"It's funny," Holloway said. "It's been in my mind to work that play in practice, where the ball goes to the shortstop's right and he has a play at third. I haven't done it yet, but they made the play. Eddie called for it. He yelled for Lou to make that throw. Lou was able to do it. It was hard. He was on the ground, but he was able to get it. That was a great play."
The one negative for the Hawks was the lack of offense. They left five runners on base and finished with only five hits, all of them singles.
But on this day, the Hawks tipped their cap to East and focused on the good things.
"The last couple of games, we've left some guys on base, but our pitching has been outstanding and our defense has been good," Holloway said. "This was a great game to win. It was like a playoff game."
The Hawks were slated to be back in action Monday against Johnston, with results unavailable at press time. They'll host Woonsocket on Wednesday and Lincoln on Friday. Both games are at 4 p.m.
"I'm happy that we're undefeated," Holloway said. "I just tell the guys we need to get better every day, every game."

Brachytherapy at the Carina
I have a patient status post chemotherapy and radiation therapy for non-small cell (squamous) carcinoma of the right upper lung. He now has a recurrence confirmed by biopsy in his carina, and brachytherapy has been suggested. Is there any literature out there on brachytherapy at the carina? I understand that this is a rare place for a recurrence and brachytherapy may not have been tried at this anatomical site.
Stephen M. Hahn, MD, Professor of Radiation Oncology at Penn Medicine, responds:
The local insertion of radioactive seeds, or brachytherapy, might be a reasonable option for this recurrence. There are data for using brachytherapy in the airway. After prior external beam radiation therapy, there are some increased risks of toxicities from the cumulative radiation dose to normal tissues. There may also be a somewhat higher risk of side effects with brachytherapy to the carina, as opposed to a site lower down in the airway on just one side or the other. However, in general it is a good treatment option, especially if there is no current evidence for cancer spread to lymph nodes or distant sites. Also, if the recurrence is superficial, photodynamic therapy or other endobronchial laser therapy could also be considered. Thoracic reirradiation is also being studied to determine if treating the same region in the chest a second time with external radiation therapy is safe and effective.

NOTE: THIS WEB PAGE IS ALL ABOUT FUN, ACTIVITIES, ADVENTURE and MEETING NEW PEOPLE; please do NOT include any religious design.
*Young single adults* between the ages of 18 to 31 years old. We are targeting the highly Social, Fun Loving and Adventure Seeking young single adults. See the Design Spec for visual representations of this target audience (pictures).
Our target audience is looking to "connect" with other young single adults in person at parties, hikes, sporting events, game nights, dinners, movie nights, etc, etc; all types of activities and adventures! They come to YSAcentral to find out about the activities posted by other young singles in their area or if they are planning an activity, they can post on YSAcentral for other young singles to find.
View the "Design Spec" for more info at: https://ysa.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W12
You must read ALL of the pages on the Wiki! There you will find the page to be designed, instructions, examples and some thoughts. Remember that the majority of "thoughts", "ideas" and "examples" I gave there are just ways to either help me describe what I mean using a rough example or to provide some visual aids to get your creative juices flowing.
**You decide which color scheme to use. We want fresh, energetic and modern**
Please read the simple design specs carefully and enjoy the experience. = )
Wait...one more thing...have fun, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun and even MORE FUN! = )
I'll be sure to get back to you quickly with detailed feedback. I'm a very detailed oriented person. I hope this quick "contest" or "interview" really, will help us find a great designer that we can count on long term and for many more design projects. = )

KRK Systems Releases Exposé E8B Near Field Monitors
KRK Systems has announced the Exposé E8B studio monitor. KRK's Exposé series E8B monitor utilizes state-of-the-art components including a beryllium/aluminum tweeter (AlbeMet) that provides smooth, lightning fast transient response or the implementation of dual discrete class A/AB amplifiers to achieve incredible detail or the striking curved cabinet which reduces diffraction.
The E8B features a tweeter made of AlBeMet, a composite material comprised of beryllium and aluminum. The advantage of using beryllium over the more conventional titanium tweeter is that beryllium is stiffer, resulting in frequency response extension, thus increasing the overall bandwidth of the monitor.
The woofer inside the E8B consists of two layers of Kevlar with a layer of Rohacell in between. The layer of Rohacell provides additional stiffness for the woofer and also functions as a dampener to eliminate unwanted resonances. The E8B copper pole cap and the aluminum shorting ring reduce motor induced distortions to an amazingly low level. The woofer's multi-layered construction also reduces distortion for improved reproduction accuracy.
KRK's Exposé E8B utilizes two discrete, Class A / AB power amplifiers, 120w for the tweeter and 140w for the woofer. This is a bi-amplified system—one amplifier each for HF and LF—with symmetrical heat sinks built into the sides for cool running, reliable operation.
All of these superior components are housed in an enclosure that is every bit as functional as it is beautiful. The cabinet's rigidity is an integral part of a speaker's performance characteristic; the E8B cabinet is designed with thick, non-parallel, internal walls which reduce the chances of standing waves inside the cabinet. The base of the monitor is made from a non-slip, sound absorbing rubberized material that eliminates vibrations transferring to the surface the monitor is resting on, ensuring the E8B will not move on its pedestal. Further, the E8B is video shielded to guarantee maximum protection against magnetic interference with video monitors.
The new KRK Systems Exposé E8B monitors are available now. VIEW PAGE
