Can Online Gambling Save Zynga as They Lose Players?
Some feel social games developer Zynga is in a race against time to see if online gambling revenue can replace rapidly dwindling Farmville cash.
It wasn't all gloom and doom during Zynga's latest earnings release, with the company squeaking out a profit for the first quarter of 2013 on total revenue of $264 million. Analysts were expecting a small loss for the quarter, with strong results from "Farmville 2" helping boost performance.
Zynga's been losing Players
Zynga's problem is that it is losing players far faster than it is gaining them from new games, with monthly active users across all of its games down to 253 million, far off the nearly 300 million monthly active users that it had a year ago in the same period.
The company rode its various 'Ville games -- FarmVille, CityVille, FrontierVille -- to much success and a billion dollar IPO but things turned grim quickly as players began to lose their appetite for the same sort of games that zynga kept pumping out (which in many cases were basically clones of other popular games).
Its purchase of OMGPOP (the maker of "Draw Something") was supposed to inject new life in the company but so far revenue gains have been non-existent although "Draw Something" remains very popular.
Zynga was once the exclusive social games developer on Facebook but the two have since dissolved the deal, increasing the competition that Zynga faces for Facebook games and leaving it looking for a lifeline to start growing again.
Investors and the company alike have pinned their hopes largely on the introduction of real money poker and casino games. Zynga launched its first real money gambling games during the first quarter of 2013, with a partnership with bwin.party seeing it roll out ZyngaPlusPoker and ZyngaPlusCasino to players 18 and over in the UK.
Zynga's play money poker game Zynga Poker remains popular and generates steady revenues but the upside for it is limited. Tapping into real money gambling markets could produce a huge shot in the arm and new growth for the company but it faces many obstacles in realizing that ambition.
Competition is strong in the online gambling space and Zynga has yet to prove that it can convince its legions of FarmVille addicts to put down their virtual pitchforks and give real money gambling a spin instead.

As a retailer we look for performance and value to sell to our customers. Our first trial one was returned with the customer citing it worked worse than the one they had for less $ and the ac adapter gets so hot they feared fire. I would return it to MCM as defect however they require exchange. Obviously it failed expectations so having another does little good. We wouldn't risk selling it to another valued customer.

Needed something to put on a friends condo, no visible antennas allowed. Checked with the front office, they were fine with this. Two lag screws into the wood siding on a wall that faces Cincinnati (35 miles), fed the cable through an eave vent. Works great! Far better than anything we tried indoors, even very expensive amplified antennas. Even picks up four stations from Dayton.Love it!

This product has not performed as expected. Reception is spotty, even when you don't move it. I haven't tried another product yet, but I will be.
Smooth flawless transaction. Quality products for great prices. I compared my item to other stores before buying and was blown away by the price difference.

Tree Removal - What to Expect

Tree removals, especially for large trees, require careful dismantling by highly trained personnel utilizing state-of-the-art machinery to ensure the protection of your home and property. The use of specialized equipment during tree removals is determined by the conditions of your landscape, branch architecture, and the soundness of your tree.
A standard tree removal includes taking down a tree, chipping all brush, cutting all wood into logs, and cutting all stumps as flush to the ground as possible. Wood may be stacked on your property, or removed from the site depending on your specifications. We also provide stump removal services at an additional charge.

That seems unlikely. Considering that Kallen is seen as a threat to Britannia I don't see why they would want to let her out. Letting her go just gives her a chance to escape.
That and I don't think Suzaku wants to let her go since he seems to plan on torturing her to get information out of her.
I was actually softening up a bit on him, but now using such a dangerous drug just so he can get what he wants makes me hate him more so then ever.
I noticed that before when Kallen fought against Suzaku she never really hated him on a personal level. She didn't like him, but now that he's going to use the very drug that caused so much damage to her mother. Oh, I think that's going to inspire some deep and powerful hatred when they fight next time in battle.
I'm hoping she beats him down HARD.

If Kallen does get drugged i hope she makes good on her promise to Suzaku in S1 "i will take down you and your white armor even though it costs me my life".
Its the only death for her, that as a Kallen fan i would find acceptable.

From what we know about the drug it makes the person relive the happiest moments of their past. Odds are that will be Kallen's childhood with her mother and brother. Technically speaking, I wouldn't think in that mind set Kallen would even know who Zero was. I just don't see how that would be an effective tool for getting information.
It is interesting if you ask, "Where did he get his hands on so much on an illegal substance?".
We don't know just how addictive this drug can be. We did see that Kallen's mother suffered due to with drawl.
I just want her to get back to the fight. We can tell from the opening she will get back into it. I'm just getting sick of waiting for it.
There are some people talking about them struggling with the vial and Suzaku getting injected, but I find that unlikely.
Suzaku has shown himself to be a skilled hand to hand fighters. Kallen is also wearing a dress and has much more exposed skin to inject. Only area exposed on Suzaku is his neck and face.

A little off topic
Hey all,
I know this is a little off topic since most of the discussion right now revolves around Kallen being forced to use refrain by Suzaku and the possible consequences, but my brother and I have been watching through the series from the beginning the past week, and I just noticed a little thing that really isn't important (Seriously, it has absolutely NO relevence at all other than the humor factor.), but was wondering if anyone knew the answer to.
In episode 4 or R2, while Kallen and C.C. are discussing the sudden apparent betrayel of the Chinese Federation, Kallen remarks that it "reminds [her] of what happened at Aomori," to which C.C. responds that it's "better than that" because "everyone is wearing clothes," which, of course, annoys Kallen.
Now we all know that Kallen seems to have a certain propensity for ending up in compromising positions, mostly involving (though not limited to) showering. The thing is, the Aomori incident mentioned here doesn't seem to correspond with any of the situations that have appeared on screen (those occuring at Ashford with Lelouch, Kaminejima with Suzaku and the Chinese Embassy with C.C. and Xingke).
So was Aomori simply an incident that happened offscreen (presumably in the year between seasons 1 and 2) that Kallen somehow, once again, ended up naked (or mostly so) in front of people? If so, man, she either has the worst luck, or really needs to start checking her surroudings before/during/after showering.
Again, no relevence to the plot, I was just wondering what Aomori refers to.

I simply cannot see your outline of events coming to pass. If she drugs him, she'd be a fool to stick around for the drug to kick in. I cannot imagine that the effect acts so quickly as to instantly take someone out of reality. Assuming she turns the tables and injects him, she'll either off him on the spot or bolt for the door.

It seems lelouch just forgot about kallen...as far as he knows she was captured by suzaku...he doesnt know that she is with nunnally.
I wonder when is he going to rescue her, after all she is the best pilot of the black knights...and one of the few people in the order that knows that he is zero...

Great Networking Tweets
Once people join Twitter, then they say they really don't know what to say. "What's happening?" Twitter asks. "Um, just got a latte?" you think.
Oh no.
Read my post about mindcasting vs. lifecasting to understand why you can cut the those silly Tweets. If you want to network, you need to do way more mindcasting.
Great Networking Tweets
- Share a link. And then add a comment. Reading a news story that relates to your field? Cool, Tweet the link and say, "A must-read for all NYC teachers."
- Retweet something. When you're on the Twitter homepage looking at your timeline, you'll see the option to "reply" or "retweet." Retweeting means sending someone else's Tweet to all your followers. The person who sent the original Tweet will be flattered but it's also a great way to share information…this is how ideas spread and go viral.
- Reply to someone. Tweet @ someone else. Did someone you are following say something insightful? Perfect. Type, "@RachelGettingIt I agree! Facebook is ridiculous!!" Usually, people will Tweet back @ you and that's how you get a conversation going. It's crazy how fast you get to "know" people by doing this.
- Tweet while you're doing something industry-related. "At the Michigan education conference!"
- Um…think of something to say. (Because I know you have thoughts!)
- Share a link to your blog post. (Because you obviously already started a blog!!!)
Remember this: What would you say if you went to a networking event? Because that's pretty much what you're doing. You'd choose someone who you knew or wanted to know and you'd just say something. The potential for Twitter to help you network really stems from the fact that it can help you connect with and impress the people you can't reach otherwise.
A Few More Tips…
- When Tweeting for networking, remember to use hash tags! Don't just say, "I love being a teacher!" Say, "I love being a #Colorado teacher! #education" This will really help people find you. Popularityyyy!
- Make sure to check your replies. On the homepage, you'll see a link that says, "@[YourTwitterHandle]." Click on it and you'll see the people who have said things to you. Woo…you're famous! Don't neglect this or people will think you're a jerk.
- One of the best ways to manage Twitter is to download Tweetdeck on your computer. It's a lot easier to see new Tweets to reply to as well as see your @replies.
And all your Tweets don't have to be work-related. You can lifecast! You can be a person with a bunch of interests and Tweet with tons of different communities and networks. It's great to show everyone you're well-rounded. But if you are using it in a professional way, then make sure your Tweets are helping your image, not hurting it. (But I think this gets filed under, "Don't Be Ridiculous.")
OK…get Tweeting and networking! Go be fabulous!

If you've ever been to IKEA then you've probably been bored shitless in IKEA too. Well one shopper in China solved the mundanity of the furniture shop by getting her arse out, because why not.
But because the world is now essentially a big blob rotating eternally around social media, the racy flasher was caught on camera and uploaded to the Chinese site, Weibo.
However, according to the Daily Star, that's not all, as shortly after the above pictures went viral, more shots were posted to Weibo of a Chinese woman lying stark naked on a bed in IKEA – sounds to me like this woman is a serial flasher.
The photos of the woman's behind have caused outrage on social media; ultimately resulting in the police tracking down the man who uploaded the images and forcing him to delete them.
IKEA were also forced to make an official statement surrounding the ordeal in which they refuted claims that they had employed such tactics to generate publicity.
The statement read:
There is speculation about the behavior of IKEA as it opens up new stores. IKEA strongly denies this speculation.
The photos were apparently taken at a branch of IKEA in China's capital, Beijing.

As usual, the good folks behind the retro-minded Dig Deeper series have booked a doozy of a headliner: thoroughly badass Filipino–African-American septuagenarian R&B shouter Sugar Pie DeSanto, who scored a hit 50 years ago with "I Want to Know." She'll be in good hands at this Dig Deeper sixth-anniversary bash, backed by the showcase's house ensemble, the Brooklyn Rhythm Band. Resident spinners DJ Honky and Mr. Robinson spin the pre- and postset tunes.

Any film with Peter O'Toole and Leslie Phillips as two eccentric stage veterans, old friends who josh each other in semi-retirement, ought to have a modicum of entertainment in it.
And Roger Michell and Hanif Kureishi's comedy about the awkward late autumn of life, when you can't do what you'd like to and don't much like doing what you can, certainly has that.
Exclusive video: The Venus premiere
Exclusive video: Interviews with the cast on location
O'Toole and Phillips know exactly how to make the most of good lines and how to mask lesser dialogue.
Both are excellent in completely different ways, with a now slightly sepulchral-looking O'Toole managing to be funny, pathetic and even rather noble. If he finally wins an Oscar, he will deserve the accolade as much for his career as this.
It isn't their fault that this curious mixture of sentimentality and sharpness ends up seeming more than a trifle glib.
It's partly because, in aiming for something deeper than facile and rather patronising laughs at aged impotence and cantankerousness, the writing and direction don't quite hit the mark.
The arrival from the provinces of Jessie (Jodie Whittaker), Phillips's pretty grand-niece, who proves hopeless at looking after him, prompts him to scream, but O'Toole takes a lustier view of the girl.
He sets out to show her the cultural sights of London and, in doing so, grows fond of rather more than her innocent nature.
She allows him a few liberties but gives him a good dig in the ribs if he starts to grope. She does, however, put her finger in her genitals and allow him to sniff the result, which is just about the most tasteless scene in a film trying to be honest but not always succeeding.
Vanessa Redgrave plays his presumably estranged wife with the straightest of bats throughout as O'Toole falls deeper and deeper before realising that he can't and shouldn't win this particular game of love, particularly when he sees a young man hovering in the girl's bedroom.
The film slides around in this emotional and sexual morass until it finally comes to rest as the Grim Reaper beckons and the girl learns that O'Toole has taught her a bit about life.
But even performances as good as these, and one would certainly include Whittaker as well as the two better-known stars, can't totally transcend material that hovers between near farce and tragi-comedy without ever landing on a convincing level.

EXCLUSIVE-Spain's bad bank close to big land sale as disposals pick up
* Sareb close to auctioning 350 mln euro portfolio - source
* Coller Capital raises $5.5 billion fund, beats targets
* Coller buys private equity stakes from banks, investors
* Has committed $800 million, sees full investment pipeline
LONDON, July 19 Coller Capital has raised $5.5 billion to buy private equity investments from banks and other investors, tapping into a growing niche that has seen some of the biggest pools of capital raised by buyout firms over the last year.
As traditional private equity groups have found new capital hard to raise and deals tough to find since the credit crisis, firms like Coller and rival AXA Private Equity have seen their market boom as private equity investors, including banks, pension funds and endowments, sell assets to free up capital.
Coller said it raised $5.5 billion on Thursday, 10 percent more than it initially targeted for its sixth so-called secondaries fund.
"We have already committed $800 million of the new fund's capital, and we have a very full pipeline of potential investments," said chief investment officer and founder Jeremy Coller.
Coller was one of the first to specialise in buying positions in private equity funds from investors, as well as acquiring portfolios of stakes in private companies from their original backers.
More recently banks, selling off their private equity interests in preparation for more stringent regulation, have provided a rich seam of investment, and have helped a niche part of the private equity industry grow.
AXA Private Equity, the private equity arm of the French insurer, raised $7.1 billion for a new fund earlier this year, more than double its initial target, and U.S. group Lexington raised $7 billion last year.
AXA private equity expects between $40 billion and $50 billion of banks' private equity holdings to come up for sale over the next couple of years, as financial institutions sell off a wide range of holdings to free up capital.

By Gabriel Stargardter and Elinor Comlay MEXICO CITY, Oct 4 After years in Brazil's shadow, Mexico's stock market is enjoying a listings boom, fueled by hopes of economic reforms and strong demand from pension funds breathing life into a long-stagnant market. From airlines to banks, Mexican companies have raised $9.8 billion this year - more cash than the previous four years combined. That is just $1.1 billion shy of the total issuance in regional powerhouse Brazil, which has

Target: Pat Quinn, Governor of Illinois
Goal: Provide legal access to medical marijuana for qualifying residents in Illinois
Illinois is one signature away from approving medical marijuana legislation that has already been approved by the House and Senate. Medical marijuana has proven beneficial for relieving pain and many associated symptoms of serious illnesses. Please sign this petition urging Illinois Governor, Pat Quinn to sign the legislation into law, granting doctor-approved access to medical marijuana for qualifying citizens.
One of the toughest medical marijuana bills is waiting to be signed into law in Illinois. The proposal creates a four-year trial program in which doctors prescribe patients no more than 2.5 ounces of medical marijuana every two weeks. Qualifying patients must have one of 42 serious or chronic conditions, and a relationship with the prescribing doctor. Patients undergo fingerprinting and a criminal background check before gaining access to medicine. A patient's medical marijuana status would be designated on their driver's license.
According to the Huffington Post, the bill is supported by the majority of Illinois voters and a coalition of nearly 250 physicians. Even some Republican legislators are standing behind the bill in response to majority constituent support. If Governor Pat Quinn signs the bill into law, Illinois will be the 20th U.S. state to legalize medical marijuana. The cannabinoids comprising marijuana are known to relive chronic pain, severe nausea, muscle spasms, gastrointestinal issues and a variety of other ailments.
Please sign this petition urging Governor Quinn to sign the bill, thus enabling hundreds of thousands of people safe and legal access to the relief and symptom management provided by medical marijuana.
Dear Governor Quinn,
Illinois' medical marijuana bill has already passed the House and Senate with support from voters, doctors and other invested constituents. Your signature would make Illinois the 20th state to adopt compassionate marijuana laws for medicinal purposes. Please sign the bill granting safe and legal access to medicine for people with qualifying ailments and associated symptoms.
Overwhelming support from voters and physicians has swayed even some of the most resistant Senators to vote in favor of the bill. As they should, Illinois' elected officials passed the bill in the House and Senate in response to constituent support. Hundreds of thousands of Illinois residents would increase their quality of life by being able to better manage symptoms of chronic and debilitating illnesses. Too often patients are over prescribed with pain pills that carry a number of risks including addiction and a slew of side effects that sometimes make it impossible to live a normal life. Medical marijuana provides patients with relief without the damaging, intrusive and long-lasting side effects of chemical pain killers.
The Illinois bill is built on the foundation of being a short-term pilot program. The provisions of the bill are some of the strictest seen among other compassionate states. Obviously a lot of time, effort and research have gone into proposing a bill that would benefit patients without posing risks to the general public. Please sign the bill into law and move one step closer to getting voters the relief and increased quality of life they are seeking.

The clock is ticking for Charles Rogers to keep his Novi, Mich., mansion.
Rogers, the No. 2 overall pick by the Lions in the 2003 NFL draft, owes $1.17 million on his mortgage and faces foreclosure on Oct. 26. According to the Legal News, Rogers defaulted on a $1.04 million mortgage originated in 2004.
This news comes five months after Rogers, 29, was ordered to repay the Lions $6.1 million of his $9.1 million signing bonus after a 2005 suspension for violating the NFL's policy on substance abuse.
Rogers struggled with injuries and personal problems, playing just 15 games in three seasons. He has been out of the league since being released by the Lions before the 2006 season.

A plague of iguanas upon your house! Frigid Miami conditions conspire to kill our lizards
A plague of iguanas upon your house! Frigid Miami conditions conspire to kill our lizards.
Lizards were literally raining down in Miami this past week. Remember the toad rain scene from Magnolia? That's what I pictured when I heard about this plague of [mostly] iguanas that fell upon our houses and in our yards when the temperatures dipped below freezing and the wind blew hard.
Our hospital saw one and we got calls about several more. Apparently we weren't the only ones to get phone calls. Frantic pet lovers besieged Animal Control and our Museum of Science (they have a wildlife rescue on their premises) with calls about what to do with them.
My answer? Bring them inside. They're usually not dead; they're just in torpor (sort of like a really deep sleep). Warm them up in an enclosed cage-like structure (like a dog crate) and when they're up and about take them to an iguana lover you know for safe keeping.
But whatever you do, I cautioned, don't release them back to the "wild." They don't belong here, as their condition clearly illustrates.
Indeed, our native lizards are all OK. My gang of porch geckoes and anoles seem none the worse for the nights of cold. I saw them sunning themselves languorously as soon as the sun was high enough to bring the temps back up to comfy.
But the iguanas? Mostly, they were found on their backs, stiff and ashy gray.
Serves them right, some said. They belong elsewhere. Here, they eat up our native plants and pollute the Everglades with their pet shop-acquired salmonella infections, thereby endangering sensitive species. One local herpetologist even suggested we eat them instead of sending them back out—the dead ones, I assume. He suggests garlic and butter.
While I'm not averse to eating lizard (I did so while living in Mexico for a few months in 1996), I'm not sure these creatures deserve to meet an ignominious end in a sauté pan. Not when their existence here is no fault of their own.
It's the less responsible herp-lovers among us who are to blame. They release them when they get too big or too annoying to feed—or something like that, I guess. Shame on them.
Still, it seems someone (Fish and Game?) would take advantage of these cold snaps to round up the creatures across the county and shelter them somewhere or euthanize them humanely, if that's what we decide as a community needs to happen when humans do stupid things. After all, there's no Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) for lizards and no placing a feral iguana.
Anyone want to start an iguana sanctuary?

New Delhi, Oct 3 (UNI) The 123 agreement between India and the United States is scheduled to be signed tomorrow, marking the culmination of a two-year-long process which was fraught with difficulties throughout.
US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice will arrive here tomorrow to sign the final agreement.
Sources in Washington, however, said that the agreement which had to be sent for President Pratibha Devisingh Patil's signature had not been sent due to ''procedural difficulties''.
But here the stage is set for the final signatures, for which the Secretary of State will be arriving, sources added.
Officials, however, were guarded in their response and could not confirn the details.

Record-tying high before cooler weather moves back in
by: Steve Udelson Updated:
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - We have tied a record high in Charlotte on Wednesday at 86 degrees. The last time the temperature hit 86 degrees on April 2 was in 2010.
The trend the next few days through the weekend will feature more clouds and will gradually cool back down.
Thursday will begin with clouds in the Charlotte area with the possibility of showers in the mountains. This won't stop us from enjoying one more day in the 80s.
Two cold fronts will move through starting Friday and will bring a decent rain chance, but only a few showers will survive the journey into the Charlotte metro area.
The sun returns on Saturday which will bring a great start to the weekend with mid-70s. A northeast breeze will keep us in the mid-60s which is cool compared to where we've been this week, but it is actually average for early-April.
Rain will develop Sunday night and continue for most of Monday with a chance of a thunderstorm as well.
Behind the system, we will cool down even more for the middle of next week.

As I'm not yet really involved in this JSF integration project, I forwarded your mail and here are the answers by Claas. I copied them out of his mail (untouched) as this mail contained my German text inside. Find the answers below.

Yes JSF can do, and that is what I want. So enhancing the Context Interface would be the right way (and the only one makes sense). I can work around this problem by falling back to the original ServletContext for missing methods, but thats not clean and confine the usefulness in non-servlet environments. I think, this does not depend on JSF integration. It will be a good idea for Cocoon having a most complete Context. > BTW, why integrate JSF and Cocoon when we have CForms? Thats the question I'm awaited for.... At first: JSF is a framwork and a spec supported by industry more than CForms. This does not state everything about the today's quality of the compared technologies. But JSF will evolve faster and will be more stable and more complete due to the larger 'community'. Comparing JSF and CForms in deep there are some fundamentals missed in CForms: - Clean separation of state management - Separation from underlying technologie (not servlet dependent) - Separation of navigation handling, validation, and application binding For all this things the JSF spec defines interfaces and/or describes contracts so third parties can develop here own things with future proving of investment. At this time there is no much implemented better than CForms had. But it will be... Second: Such a complex technology needs tool support, integration in an IDE and so on. With a larger market of the base technology this things will come... On the other hand: In my opinion there is a a big disadvantage of JSF: They define Java classes as renderers. Building up a complete and reliable Renderkit supporting different browsers is one of the main points overall. But: The web designer cracks (knowing all about the browser quirks) are in most cases not the java cracks. They can not build up a complex, reusable and maintainable renderkit written in java. At all it will be the wrong way making complex things for a markup based client (like HTML, XUL, WML, ...) in Java. You will feel the dejavue looking on some JSP pages and the growing taglibs behind. So lets Cocoon render and let us use all the other things coming up with JSF like complex state holding, complex application binding, tools support and so on. Thats the main goal of PatchWork.XFaces. ...And: Competition stimulates the Business Claas -- ____________________________________________________________________ Dipl.-Inf.

The More Info linked to twitter which provides a single line of code to add to the existing Twitter code, which will then suggest users add my website's Twitter to their list. Sounds like something I want to do. My question is...where can I add this code? I checked templates and saw a lot of Facebook code but nothing for Twitter.

Asia Society's experts believe that the new ambassador will be facing tough challenges in Washington.
The November 15 photograph of former Philippines president Gloria Macapagal Arroyo in a wheelchair and neck brace at the Manila International Airport became something of a media sensation last week as Arroyo is now appealing the government's decision to not let her fly out of the country for medical reasons.
The case, the latest in a long series of Philippines dynastic political battles, pits Arroyo against the government of President Benigno Aquino III.

Corsair Graphite 760T V2 Full Tower Case - Arctic White
Corsair Graphite Series 760T V2 Arctic White Full Tower Windowed Case, 9x Expansion Slots, 3x 140mm Fans
The Graphite Series 760T full-tower PC case starts with a visually stunning design that's a match for its stunning performance potential.
The beauty begins on the outside with its sculpted shapes and ingenious, full windowed hinged side panel with flush-mount latches. The front panel has two massive 140mm intake fans bathed in soft LED light, and there's a dual-speed fan selector for performance or silence. Inside, there's ample cooling potential, with eight fan mounting locations and room for multiple radiators for self-contained liquid CPU coolers, or even custom liquid cooling. And, clever touches like modular drive cages and laterally mounted SSD bays maximize interior volume to help your high-performance dreams come true. Features Swing-out side panels
The side panels are hinged, so opening your 760T is as simple as pulling the flush-mounted latch. They can also be removed entirely by simply lifting them off of the hinges.
Ample cooling potential
Like all Corsair cases, the 760T is designed for high-performance system builds, and high-performance systems require sophisticated cooling. There are eight total fan mounts, with room for top, front, bottom and rear-mounted radiators.
A clever drive bay design that maximizes interior volume
The four SSD bays are mounted laterally to make the most efficient use of the interior space. The combo 3.5" / 2.5" drive bays employ a modular bay system, so you can remove the bays you don't need. The end result is an open interior optimized for extra-long GPUs and free airflow.
Front I/O panel with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 connectors
You can never have too many devices. The 760T front panel has two high-speed USB 3.0 connectors and two USB 2.0 connectors, plus headphone and microphone connectors for your headset.
Dual AF140L 140mm LED front intake fans with dual-speed control
The AF140L fans are custom-engineered by Corsair to deliver high-volume airflow with less noise and turbulence. The extra-large diameter allows them to run at a lower RPM, and they're positioned to deliver cool air directly to your GPUs. A front panel switch allows you to toggle between silent and performance modes.

Date Issued: 6th Jul 2011
There's more choice than ever before, but which computer case is right for you and which features should you look out for?
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008
The modern PC is potentially a mass of heat output and heat production hot spots. With CPUs rated at more than 100W of heat output, single graphics boards carrying similar ratings (and people want to run two!), multiple hard drives the norm, lots of memory and mainboards covered in heatpipes to combat toasty core logic and PWM circuits, a PC appreciably warming up a room when it's working hard is no joke.
Date Issued: 19th Jun 2008
Watercooling for the PC has been around for years in some form or another, for at least as long as Scan have been in business, with basic physics defining why you want to use it. That means for air cooling, to cope with increasing temperature in the heatsink you need to move the air across it faster. That is why thermostatically controlled fans in your PC will turn faster the hotter something gets.

Gas Line Question
OK: Here's the deal. My brother in law gave my wife and I a washer and dryer. The issue was that we have to run a gas line to the new appliances. The gas line that is in my house already is 1/2 inch but the tools he has only applies to 1/4 line. So he's going to run the 1/4 line to the appliances.
My question is: Is this dangerous? Is it dangerous to downsize the size of the line? I figure it isn't because it's going to a regulator and the regulator will take care of the flow but....
Yeah, any help?
what size line does the dryer take?
I believe it takes 1/4 inch.
well if it take 1/4 inch it needs to be downsized anyhow. so you should be fine as far as i am aware.
Reread the manual to be sure and if it takes 1/2 inch I would be leary depending what else is drawing from the 1/2 in line.
Downsizing the line to 1/4", will lead to inferior performance...
It don't cost That much for the Proper tools to do the job,... Right...
you need to do a calc.to figure out how many btus that 1/2 is feeding already 1/2 for a whole house is mighty small and is probably maxed out already. you may have to run it back to where the largest pipe is now usually 3/4 or 1
' at the meter
nat gas or propane? make sure dryer is configued for the type of gas youre using or youll have probs
You may need to run a larger line to the dryers area. And then run the 3/8" line.
A 1/2" main gas line doesn't carry a lot of gas.
Thanks for the replies so far guys.
My house (an older single story home) is about 1200 sq ft with natural gas. Not big at all. he wants to T off of the gas line, run it about 15 feet through my attic, and pull it down to the dryer. I'll let him know what you guys said but...is there any actual physical danger in downsizing the gas line? I don't want gas building up and my house exploding (I'm bein' dramatic, but you get my point).
Thanks again.
Yes. Can cause CO production from the water heater and furnace beside the dryer itself.
Get a gas contractor to do this under permit, because if something goes wrong your ass is covered. Sizing gas is relatively easy, but if you don't know what you are doing it will result in trouble (not blow yourself up, but maybe "go to sleep and never wake up" kind of trouble). As for 1/2" and 1/4" lines? Not enough info! What material? What pressure is the meter supplying? How long is the longest run? What is the total demand? Even with all of these questions answered I still couldn't give you a definitive answer to what you need.

hi guys
so ive really been struggling with my mental illness (i have 4) and ive recently disclosed another event as well. ive been told i should jsut get over it and just dont worry about it and im finding it really hard to 'just get over' im just wondering what others opinions are... do you think im just complaining?
ive also just discovered that i have a few physical health issues to deal with such as scoliosis, glasses, and a few of my main ligaments have been torn and have never been fully corrected as i never got a boot or anything to support it so now im stuck having a few torn ligamanents that will probably never heal so the pain that i feel will be constant unfortunately.
so i was just trying to have a conversation in general about my injury and treatment etc and she just rolled her eyes at me and said that i complain to much.. this is kinda the first times heard about it as i try not to complain about anything even when im struggling the most. even in my full panic state she usually jsut ignores me and then gets the craps at me...
do you think im complaining?

The Marsh Restoration Initiative
In Fall 2011, the American Littoral Society and the Jamaica Bay Ecowatchers kicked off the planning sessions for the first-ever, community led, salt marsh restoration project in a national park. By Summer 2013, we were ready to plant 88,000 plugs of spartina alterniflora and distribute 200 pounds of locally harvested seed. As a result, over 33 acres of fragile tidal salt marsh islands were restored in Jamaica Bay. Over 500 volunteers harvested seed, ferried volunteers in their boats and then performed large-scale plantings on Ruler's Bar and Black Wall marsh islands, resulting in significant cost savings and hands-on engagement with this vital estuarine habitat. This is community pride and conservation at its best! We will continue to monitor and maintain the islands in the years to come, along with launching new habitat restoration projects throughout Jamaica Bay.
With funding provided by the NYS DEC, the American Littoral Society launched its first-ever Restoration Corps as part of the Marsh Restoration Initiative. Restoration Corps is an environmental leadership and green jobs training program for local high school students that teaches participants to enhance and restore the natural environment through shoreline and habitat restoration.
The Marsh Restoration Initiative is made possible through support from our partners at the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, NYC Department of Environmental Protection, Gateway National Recreation Area, US Army Corps of Engineers and Mitsui & Co., Ltd.

Life When You're Single Song

These two girls wrote a song about being single...and it's REALLY catchy - seriously it's stuck in my head! Can you relate to their lyrics?
Dave Styles was born in Seattle to British parents, and spend a good chunk of his youth in Liverpool, England. He is a Libra, loves eating healthy, loves playing softball and soccer, and has way too many shoes for a guy. Dave started his road to radio at age 13, when he used to record his own weekly countdown, using his home stereo and microphone, then sold copies to his friends at school. Since then, he has worked at some top stations in Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles. He is also in the in-stadium Entertainment Host for the LA Dodgers.

The Ventura County Mexican American Bar Association (VC MABA) hosts its annual scholarship dinner on Friday, Oct. 29 at 6 p.m. at the Courtyard Marriott Hotel in Oxnard. Tickets are on sale for $50 per person.
Keynote Speaker Is UCLA Law's New Dean
VC MABA is proud to announce this year's keynote speaker, Rachel F. Moran, deandesignate at the UCLA School of Law and formerly a Boalt Hall law professor. Moran will be the first Latina dean of a top-ranked U.S. law school. Moran, who teaches torts, education law, and race and the law, will assume the role of dean and professor of law on October 15.
Moran served as president of the Association of American Law Schools in 2009. She has published and lectured extensively on education law and policy, family law, and civil rights and antidiscrimination law. Following her undergraduate education at Stanford and law school at Yale, Moran clerked for Chief Judge Wilfred Feinberg of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit.
"The selection of Rachel Moran as the next dean of UCLA School of Law is a great triumph for our law school," said Stephen C. Yeazell, UCLA Law's interim dean. "Rachel Moran is a respected and accomplished legal scholar, an excellent and dedicated teacher and a terrific institution builder."
Judge Conroy to Be Honored
This year's dinner will honor Judge Gay Conroy with the Access to Justice Award. Members of MABA recognize Judge Conroy for her leadership in establishing the Family Law Self-Help Center, among her many achievements, and her commitment to all litigants having access to the legal system.
MABA Scholarships
The annual dinner raises money to provide scholarships to students pursuing a career in the legal field. This year, VCMABA expects to award four $1,000-dollar scholarships. VC MABA has existed for over 30 years. Membership is comprised of attorneys who practice in a wide variety of fields, law students and community members. VC MABA is committed to the advancement of the legal profession and the empowerment of the Latino community through advocacy and the promotion of equal justice.
