An excellent reference on building Linux systems is Building the Perfect Box: How to Design Your Linux Workstation, written by Eric Raymond.
It contains some essential principles that hold very true, despite the fact that there have been some hardware improvements since the time at which it was written.
The base axiom is: " Contrary to what CPU sales people would tell you, system performance is typically I/O bound, and not CPU bound."
While not universally true, this is true for the vast majority of computer systems. Even with CPU-bound processing, the 300MHz Pentium II processor currently reigning as "state of the art" in the Intel world can process things up to 3.5 times faster than one can do memory fetches across the 66MHz PCI bus. The situation is even more extreme with Digital's 500MHz+ Alpha CPUs. In order to get any kind of performance they need to have lots of L1/L2 cache...
Of course, that has gotten remarkably dated; we now have "multiple GHz" systems. But all the same, CPUs have continued to increase in speed greatly more than memory buses have.
The ideal CPU-power-per-dollar ratio for the average I/O-bound system usually comes from buying the CPU that is one or even two steps away from the state-of-the-art;
Spend some of the difference on RAM, as disk caching will likely more than make up for the loss of CPU power;
SCSI provides substantially better I/O performance than IDE, and is worth a degree of price premium. If I/O is really important, then the price premium is well worth paying.
At the time that the article was written, P166 machines were "state-of-the-art," and P133s were getting pretty cheap. In November 1997, it's Pentium II-300's that are "big, bad, and expensive" and P200s are pretty cheap. (Particularly if you consider the AMD or Cyrix "clones.") In late 1998, it it is "PII 450's" that are fast and expensive, while PII-300's are cheap.
The latest major change is that Intel is trying to eliminate socket-compatible chips by its move to Pentium Pro and Pentium 2. The new designs provide the putative advantage of improved cacheing at the cost that motherboard manufacturers now have two more mutually-incompatible motherboard designs to play with. My tendancy is to rebel and use "Socket 7" Cyrix/AMD CPUs instead.
Note that the principle of "buy less CPU, buy more RAM" may be true even in some situations where applications are CPU-intensive. CPU-intensive applications do a lot of updating of memory. Buying more memory and perhaps looking at a better motherboard and tuning memory access time may still beats out getting a faster CPU. If the CPU is waiting to fetch an instruction a 66MHz PCI bus, the wait time doesn't depend very much on whether it is a P133 or a P233 processor...
Designing a Linux Machine provides a somewhat more recent presentation from a British perspective.
I have an Olympus 320L digital camera; this material represented useful research material towards decisionmaking in my purchase.
Digital cameras do not provide, at present, even at the really high end, as good resolution as you can get from a 35MM camera.
However, they do allow instant "development" of shots, allow the user to discard unwanted pictures at no cost, and are perfect for populating web pages with images.
Many of them seem to use the same communications protocols, which certainly eases the process of putting together software to connect them to Linux-based machines as well as other systems that have similar resemblance to Unix.

PhotoPC Tool (www.average.org)
These tools are known to work with cameras based on a "Fujitsu" chipset, that include cameras from Agfa, Epson, and Olympus. Sanyo cameras should also be supported; this is thus far untested.
Linux software for Agfa ePhoto 307
<firstname.lastname@example.com>Thierry Bousch has reported that this software also works with
the Olympus Camedia C-410L, and that Agfa, Epson, Olympus and Sanyo
digital cameras seem to share the same protocols...
Sundry Digital Camera drivers including Ricoh DC-3/DC-300
The Polaroid DMC is a fairly high-end CCD camera designed for microscopy. Unfortunately, it only comes with Windoze or Mac software. Fortunately, David Skoll (of Remind fame) has written a driver that works with Linux, and probably with other Unix-like systems...
Washington Photo Server - A web enabled, multi-threaded photo server that works with Kodak DC200 and DC210 digital cameras
Not Linux related; this has sundry general Digital Camera information.
Apparently this camera uses a SPARC CPU as do Sanyo, Epson, Agfa cameras...

It only has minimal (if any) connection to Linux, but lists information about a whole lot of digital cameras, which may be useful to those doing a general census of cameras out there...

While largely eclipsed by X, there is still some effort going into continued development of this low-footprint graphics system.
A site that attempts to catalogue conspicuous incompatibilities of hardware with Linux.
How to Tell What Type of Memory Your Linux PC Has Installed - How-To Geek
This tells about the use of system analysis tools you mightn't have been aware you had handy!
Several projects have come along that seek to do the same for hardware designs that the FSF has done for software; they seek to provide designs for CPUs and the likes that are available under "free" licenses so that anyone may, free of royalties, build and improve these designs.
It is an interesting idea, and it would be quite nice if it actually turned into something. Unfortunately, integrating these designs so as to construct systems is a dauntingly complex task, and it does not become economically viable unless they can set up production runs of on the order of hundreds of thousands of units, which is a costly endeavor.
But we can dream a little, can't we?
F-CPU A GNU/GPLed 64-bit CPU architecture
This project intends to design and construct a 64 bit CPU with performance characteristics similar to Intel's IA-64/"Merced" architecture, to be pin compatible with one of the prevailing motherboards, and release the chip design under the GPL.
The proponents predict that they can get chips fabricated for on the order of $100 apiece; this would be a rather interesting approach to ensuring availability of some cheap, fast CPUs for Linux systems.
OPENCORES.ORG is a repository of open source, free IP synthesizable blocks and supplemental prototype boards. Most of our cores are currently under development but some are already available.
The initial plan is to come up with a PCI-based computer design where the electronic component designs are freely available. This will include motherboard, CPU, SDRAM controller, and communications controllers.

A "SPARC-Compatible" CPU whose design is available in VHDL form under the LGPL.

The Open Hardware Certification Program
In response to the I2O problem, Software in the Public Interest (largely made up of people involved with the Debian Project) have created the OpenHardware Certification Program in order to advocate open release of interfacing information for computer hardware. There are a number of vendors (most notably Digital Equipment Corporation) that are vendor participants.

The Network Audio System (NAS)
The Network Audio System is a network transparent, client/server audio transport system. It can be described as the audio equivalent of an X server.
It remained untouched between 1996 and early 2000, as an X-related standard that was essentially "lost" at the time that X moved from the X Consortium to The Open Group.
New revisions have come out in 2000.
ESD - Enlightened Sound Daemon
The Enlightened Sound Daemon mixes several audio streams for playback by a single audio device. You can also pre-load samples, and play them back without having to send all the data for the sound. Network transparency is also built in, so you can play sounds on one machine, and listen to them on another.

HotBits: Genuine Random Numbers
A web server that will serve you up Truly Random Numbers produced by a radiation source.
This tends to be useful for cryptographical applications. Unfortunately those applications generally require that the hardware be under tight (to the point of paranoia) local control; a public server that could report numbers to other destinations is a bit useless to this purpose.
The generation techniques may be worth learning from, though...

A Bail Bond Agency is a company that helps you get someone you know out of jail. So people think that they should contact an Edgewood Bail Bonds agency when they're in trouble. This is true to a certain extent because posting bail is the primary function of any bail bonds company. But there are some bail bond agencies like Bail 2 Go that provide some additional services that you can get even when you don't need bail.
One of these services is warrant checking. Warrant checking is the process of checking if there is a warrant issued against an individual for an arrest or a search. These are usually issued to law enforcement agencies so that they could do whatever that says in the warrant. The only way you could find whether there's a warrant against you is to wait until someone shows up at your doorstep with the warrant. But now with Bail 2 Go Edgewood Bail Bonds you don't have to wait until the police arrive at your door. If you're suspicious that there's a warrant issued against you, all you got to do is call us. Our professional bounty hunters and bondsmen will search all available databases for any warrant against you.
Not all Edgewood Bail Bonds agencies provide this service. That's because a warrant is kept a secret to avoid potential suspects from fleeing. Let's say someone robbed a bank and if they find out that there's a warrant against them they'll probably hide somewhere else.

Designed & made by the Karakuri Creation Group Karakuri Small Box #4 is part of a set that have their origins in Akio Kamei designs from the early to mid 1990's. This puzzle is said to be based on "Box with a Ribbon" from 1996 although even the Karakuri Group themselves say this changed solution is (quote from "World of Karakuri Box that Evolves published 2008) "a little unkind"! The box has an obviously separate bottom so you seem to have a clue about where to start but that just makes it more intriguing!
The Karakuri Creation Group's woodworking skills are very well known. It is almost impossible to see the joins where one panel meets another on this box making the puzzle even harder to do. We have sourced these boxes directly from Japan.
The Hakone region has a long history of generations of master craftsmen making secret opening boxes for more than 100 years. Our stock of these boxes is very limited and once sold we're not sure how long it will be before we could get similar puzzle boxes again.
This very special puzzle box is crafted in Rengas wood.
Size outside: 47mm x 47mm x 47mm Space inside: 25mm x 25mm x 20mmA solution is provided.

Cole was a four year player for the COMMANDOS that always did his best both on and off the field. He played tight end on offense and defensive end on defense, while also having several different responsibilities on Special Teams. He was a hard worker every day, and his presence in the locker room, on the practice field, and on Friday nights will be greatly missed.
2017-Worked hard throughout the season and ended up earning some playing time on both offense and defense while also being a critical member of the Special Teams units. Ended the season with 1 tackle and 1 QB hurry. His tackle came against Wilson Central while his QB pressure was recorded in the team's victory over Gallatin.
2016-Played on the JV team.
2015-Played on the JV team.
2014-Worked hard in practice and showed great improvement over the course of the season. He saw action in several games on offense and defense at cornerback and split end, and was a contributor on Special Teams. He wore jersey #9 for the Freshman team.

The final mixes of Kanye West's "The Life Of Pablo" might be rolling out as you read
While at one point it seemed that the version of The Life Of Pablo we received last month would be its final form, recent comments from Kanye West have indicated that a second mix is on its way, and today it seems we're finally hearing those proposed changes.
A Reddit user by the name of JayElect has pointed out some subtle differences in "Famous" on the Tidal version of the album, most noticeably with Ye's line "She be Puerto Rican day parade wavin'" being changed to "She in school to be a real estate agent," but also what seem to be new sounds in the "Bam Bam" sample outro, and possibly a different mix on Rihanna's vocals from 1:01 – 1:17.
As far as we know, these are the only changes that have been made to the album thus far, but it's possible we could be hearing further additions soon. So far there's no official word from Kanye or Tidal on the new mixes.
The new version of "Famous" can be heard on Tidal, but you'll have to make sure and delete your synced version of the album if you had previously saved the original mix to your device.

Here's a look at a Protection domain for clerics that Baron's player and I came up with.
Breaking a few major "rules" of 5E by allowing the cleric to cast an Abjuration spell that requires Concentration and removing the Concentration requirement, and gaining the ability to affect multiple targets with their single-target Abjuration spells when using higher spell slot levels, this subclass may end up being "too good" as written. If there are broken combos to be found with the synergies between these abilities, I have faith in Vic (Baron's player) to find them.
Protection Domain
<Insert fluff that no one reads here>
Protection Domain Spells
|Cleric Level
|Protection from Good and Evil, Shield of Faith
|Protection from Poison, Warding Bond
|Magic Circle, Protection from Energy
|Guardians of Faith, Stoneskin
|Antilife Shell, Circle of Power
Bonus Proficiency
When you choose this domain at first level, you gain proficiency with heavy armor.
Channel Divinity: Set Ward
Beginning at 2nd level, when you cast an abjuration spell with a duration which requires concentration, you may expend one use of your Channel Divinity class feature to remove the concentration requirement from the spell. It lasts for its full duration.
Shared Protections
At 6th level, when you cast an abjuration spell which affects one target and has a duration which requires concentration using a higher level spell slot, you can choose to affect one additional target for each spell slot level higher than the spell's base level. If the spell already grants this ability, such as the Banishment spell, this feature grants no additional effect. Additionally, if the spell has a range of touch, the range increases to 30 feet when cast with a higher level slot. Once you use this ability, you must complete a long rest before using it again.
Divine Strike
At 8th level, you gain the ability to infuse your weapon strikes with divine energy. Once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d8 damage of the same type dealt by the weapon to the target. When you reach 14th level, the extra damage increases to 2d8.
Hardened Soul
At 17th level, you gain resistance to slashing, piercing, and bludgeoning damage.


text: The Brotherhood Of Poland, N.H. premiered on CBS on September 24, 2003. This series from Emmy Award-winning producer David E. Kelley is a drama that celebrates small town life and follows three brothers as they face challenges in their families and careers in the town of Poland, N.H. Hank Shaw, the police captain, Garrett Shaw, the mayor, and Waylon Shaw, unemployed, were born and raised in Poland and are former high school hockey stars. Now, as grown men, they are struggling with big city problems. On the job, Hank is known for his explosive personality and tendency to communicate with his fists, while his home life is far from wild with his unhappy wife, Dottie. Garrett, the town's pillar of strength, finds his own world beginning to crumble when he's forced to hide a secret from his wife, Helen, that could jeopardize his marriage and his relationship with his daughter, Monica. Waylon, out of work and feeling a little paranoid, is convinced that his wife, Julie, is having an affair. When Waylon enlists him to help, Hank assigns outspoken police officer Francine Hill to spy on Julie's potential suitor. Waylon also learns that his teenage daughter, Katie, is sleeping with her high school teacher. As the brothers confront personal and professional dilemmas, the one constant in their lives is their family bond and their unconditional love for each other.

1337 is the first to provide IT training in Morocco, completely free of charge, open and accessible to anyone between the ages of 18 and 30. No need for an IT degree, or of having undergone extensive IT training. The only criteria for admission in Treize, Trente-Sept is CREATIVITY.
The Treize, Trente-Sept educational approach is based on peer-learning. A participatory operating style allowing students to unleash their creativity through project-based learning. To train the future coders of tomorrow, we had to rethink learning. We had to make IT something fun, exciting and at odds with the restrictive vision that the general public may have about it.
1337 is the coding school par excellence, completely free of charge and accessible to all with no prerequisite of a degree. It offers a full immersion in a universe where the future is already present. Where IT and the lines of code are way more than a vague and off-putting concept…
Treize, Trente-Sept, a forward-looking school from the present.
Why 1337 ?
First and foremost, we have to get used to reading "13" and then "37". 13.37. Fully detached.But if you attach it all, you end up with 1337.🙂
In fact, 13 37 comes from "LEET SPEAK", the notorious geeky language initially designed to convey ideas among insiders and prevent noobs from meddling in their conversations.The leet speak is therefore a special language that uses characters that are graphically adjacent to usual characters. Number "5" replaces the letter "S", number "7" replaces the letter "T", etc…
For 13 37… there is nothing simpler : L=1, E=3, T=7.
LEET for Leet Speak… LEET for 13 37. CQFD !
Find us ?
About 1.5 hours away from Casablanca and 3 hours from Marrakech, Khouribga is a nice little city. Treize, Trente-Sept is located in the heart of the Mine Verte (Green Mine), an ideal place to study, as it is surrounded by parks and several cultural and sports infrastructures. As you write lines and lines of code, you can enjoy the city's huge media library and auditorium, as well as the campus's green spaces. Feel free to go out a little… just to get some fresh air and some inspiration for your projects.
We could have given you the school's postal address, but honestly, what fun would that be? Instead, here are the GPS coordinates: 32.882163, -6.897713.
So by car or by train, hit the road towards the code capital.

I have been lucky to visit Europe quite a few times. No doubt it was all courtesy my work, with all my visits leading to me spending much more time at work than I normally put when I am in my own office, with very little time for sightseeing, still, how many people get to go to Europe regularly.
This time was courtsey the wife, who planned out an European tour for two weeks. I have not been on a vacation for a long time, and seriously, was happy, that my wife had planned this out (leaving it to me, would have taken another two years). So the plan final, the tour was to Europe for two weeks, and ofcourse, my plan was no work.
And so we started, with the first day (July 10), leaving for Belgium. Midnight flight, via Amsterdam, a four hour halt at the airport, sans any veg food (the agent forgot), we finally reached our hotel, after nearly 12 hours since we left Dubai.. Was I ever dead.. But alas, being a Saturday, and ofcourse Europe, they never give the rooms prior to 4 PM.. Checkout is always 12 PM. Hello Hello.. Welcome to another part of the world, which is not Dubai.. Checkins are not when you land up at the airport, and you will not get help to get your baggage. We all work for ourselves.
All settled in, food was ofcourse the first thing on mind. Voila, what does a veggie eat when he goes out of Dubai.. Pizza!! Luckily there was a joint open, and we could savour something into our empty stomachs. The rest of the afternoon / evening was just a stay at the hotel, as most of the places were closed by then.
Come the next day, a checkout, and onwards to the beginning of the journey. Pickup near Grand Central, the bus finally came about an hour late. Either way, a tour around the Grand Palais, the Central, the Mannekin Pis, and of course the St. Michel Church. I had been to the area, around 10 years ago, of course nothing had changed, however they were now on a cleaning spree of cleaning all old buildings and bringing them back to their original glory, ie. clear them of all the soot that they have been collecting. And is there a change? The buildings sans their soot and dirt, are simply un-recognizable and beautiful.
A tour of the Central area complete and a few Belgian chocolates down, we headed off to the Atomium, where an Atom has been expanded 160 billion times to create a building in the shape of atoms. Amazing what has been built. That and a few scenes of true Belguim, we headed off to Netherlands, our next stop.. Eindhoven.
Amazing thing was how the country manages to keep itself clean (of course there will be poverty and dirty areas, but on an overall basis), and the amount of greenery available. Wonderful weather, amazing atomosphere (sans the heat wave), beautiful greenery, and without a doubt, an absolutely beautiful country...

Fillings are a means of strengthening a tooth back to normal health by sealing a cavity, crack or chip. At Church House Dental Practice we provide white composite and white porcelain ceramic fillings to restore teeth to their natural standard. We also replace old amalgam or metal fillings with the highest grade of white fillings for better health and aesthetics. Call us today on 01273 453229 or book online for an appointment for more information about our dental filling treatments.
Cavities may be small or large holes in tooth structure that are caused by tooth decay, infectious bacteria, tooth wear and enamel erosion. Smaller cavities are easily filled with white fillings of composite or porcelain ceramics. Larger cavities may require a dental crown restoration to restore the tooth to a healthier strength.
When a tooth hole or cavity occurs, the inner tooth may become exposed to bacteria that colonise and cause infection. If this happens, the infected tooth may need to be drained of the infection or antibiotics may be provided. Root canal treatment may be required to rid the inner tooth of infection that may spread. Filling and sealing a tooth cavity with a dental filling prevents such bacteria from invading the inner tooth causing further tooth damage and potential tooth loss.
Ceramic fillings of porcelain (onlays or inlays) give the closest shade and appearance to natural teeth. They are used in filling tooth cavities for better dental health and for giving teeth a natural white appearance so that the filling is not obvious. Porcelain ceramic fillings give a naturally beautiful smile.
If you wish to have amalgam fillings replaced with more natural-looking and safer filling solutions, do contact us. We can provide you with more information about cavities and types of tooth filling treatments to choose from.
Let us exceed your expectations
Soothing, gentle dental care
For a smoother, fresher looking you
Achieve your dream smile
Enjoy smiling again

The Need for Engaging Litigation Support
Most law firms do opt for litigation support since they take they don't consume a lot of time. You find that at some point the court may set a schedule that minimizes the time that lawyers may have to prepare the evidence and set up the right strategy and such cases litigation support is necessary. This is where the litigations support will be employed to analyze the information and helps prepare a substantial approach before the court proceedings. This will ensure they meet the set deadlines which can play a bigger role in the success of the of the law suit.
There are also some data that cannot be understood by the attorney due to their complexity and can be best interpreted by the litigation staff. One thing for sure that lawyers are not computers and they are only specialized in the interpretation of the law. They will need assistance given that there are some data that they cannot understand a thing. On of the roles that they will play is to interpret the data, organize in and present it in a more simplified way that can be understood in the courtroom proceedings. You should not have to worry about finding these experts as we have court reporting agency who have a network on how to get such individuals.
In situations where the clients offer a lot of money in line litigation support will be required in winning the case. It is a belief that people only work hard when there is something big that they are expecting such as case where there is a lot of money in return. You find that such cases with lots of money in the line are always involving and they need support team since the lead attorney cannot win it himself. Some of the things that they will help the lawyer with is carry out research on the important facts about the case that can bore positive fruits when presented in front of the jury. This is going to make sure that they arrange all the important information and advice the leading attorney accordingly on how he can win the case. With the help of court reporting agency you will get the qualified staff that will make the filling of the case to be simple and stress-free.
Litigation support are also important in situations where there are numerous witnesses to depose. Getting the information from more than one hundred witnesses and you are one person can be one of the most tiresome activities. This will make sure that the case does not take a long time to handle as different people will be employed to interview different witnesses and come up with one final information that they will present in court.

"You shall offer up a cake"
Numbers 15:20
How was your Easter? Family? Food? Filled with gratitude? I hope all of the above.
We went to church (of course) and then to my folks' house for dinner. Ham, which of course is practically required, and was sooo delicious. And cauliflower and Brussels sprouts and candied carrots and crescent rolls.
We all kind of split the cooking, sort of going with our specialties, but dessert was an experiment on my part. A recipe I read about that called for angel food cake mix, and crushed pineapple. That's it. Just combine the two, stir and bake. We ate it with strawberries and toasted coconut, all of which is a great combination.
It reminded me of a cake I haven't made in a long time ~ something I learned when I was in elementary school, and then became "famous" for. {Please know that I use that term very, very lightly.}
It was called a "Hawaiian Wedding Cake" and it was this wonderful creation that called for crushed pineapple and coconut and crushed pistachios. And a cream cheese frosting. So yum. I made it for a cooking competition at school, when I was in 8th grade. I won for my division, so I got to enter it in the countywide competition, and won there, too. I still have the trophy, to amaze my friends and impress my relatives.
{It's either that, or I keep telling the story of the sting ray I caught
when I was fishing off the coast of North Carolina. When I was twelve.
Those are my two biggest claims to fame. Sad, I know...}
Anyhow, this wonderful cake that won prizes and adulation had a flaw. A fairly substantial one. Because our oven wouldn't heat properly, the cake didn't rise on one side. It was cooked all the way through, but there was a definite slope from one side to the other. (This cake is cooked in a 9 x 13 pan, so it was hard to miss the slope.)
So my mother had the genius idea to simply frost a little extra on the low side. It made it nearly impossible to tell that there had a been a problem with the the cake. Unless, of course, you cut it. Which, of course, the judges did.
But either the judges cut it on the other side, or the cake was so delicious they didn't care that it was crooked, because ~ hello, did I mention my trophy? And for years, my family joked that the way to solve any problem was just to add more frosting on one side. A little extra frosting can be the answer to anything!
This is the effect of the Jesus in our lives. This is the beauty of the Holy Spirit in us. He fills in the holes, strengthens our weaknesses, and smooths out our flaws. He protects others from us, more than we know. Have you ever apologized to someone, maybe for being short-tempered or something, and had them say, "I didn't even notice." That's Him. And He protects you, too, from people and situations around you.
Not all the time, of course. We are flawed, and short-tempered, and thoughtless, and we are sometimes going to hurt others, and sometimes be hurt by them. But we'll never know all the ways He makes us better than we are, simply by our being in Him.
~ "Hezekiah prayed for them, saying,
'May the good Lord provide atonement for everyone'" ~
2 Chronicles 30:18

As I said in my last post, it is still in the ninetys here at night, maybe high eightys if we're lucky, so instead of making a cardigan, I made a sleep set, out of my cream jersey (I know you're probably sick of seeing cream jersey over here) from fabric.com
I used the McCall's DIY Style pattern 6128, I made both the racerback top and the underpants (view E) in a size 4. The top fits well but one of the armholes is a little lettuce edged cause I stretched it a little while I sewed it, I'm hoping that will go away after I wash it. The bottoms took me 2 tries and they still aren't perfect. The first try I ignored the grainline on the pattern piece and the leg binding didn't stretch the way I cut it, so they made it up to my knees when I tried them on. The second try I got the binding right, but they don't cover my whole backside. You see I made a 4 because if the finished hip measurement, but I forget that I have alot of junk in my trunk so the underpants only cover 2/3rds of my backside. Considering this is a sleep set and the tank is a little long so it covers the top of my bum, so all is well with my sleep set.
I am planning to make a large bum adjustment on these bottoms for the future, they may also be useful to make a 'sporty' bikini bottom, since they have better coverage and less slippage than usual string bikini bottoms.

Samsung Electronics, a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, has launched the Samsung "Smart View" application that enables users to view images from a Samsung Smart TV or other input device, on their mobile devices.
The free Smart View application displays Smart TV images right onto mobile devices via wireless Ethernet – whether consumers are enjoying cable broadcast programs, content from a Blu-ray player, a camcorder, set-top box or other input devices. Furthermore, this app also enables mobile viewing from around the home.
With only one Smart TV, a family member can watch one TV program in the living room, while another family member enjoys either the same content, or movies played by the living room Blu-ray player, from the comfort of the bedroom while leaning back with a Samsung smartphone or tablet.
Says Corrie Labuschagne, product and marketing manager for TVs at Samsung, "Samsung has consistently brought movies, TV programs, music and other desired content stored on DLNA-certified devices such as PCs, mobile phones and cameras to the large TV screens – and is now extending this function and opening up further viewing opportunities for our consumers by mirroring images back to mobile devices through this new application."
Since last April, when Samsung launched "Samsung Remote" – an easy-to-use application to deliver general remote control functions while also supporting Smart TV's special features – the company continues to strengthen convergence between Smart TV and mobile devices through this latest Smart View app offering.
Samsung will also continue to update the Samsung Smart View application with various remote control functions, optimally designed for Smart TV, to ensure customers use the unique features of Smart TV in increasingly convenient ways.
A "Channel List" option, which lets users search program information and change channels on their mobile devices, is one such enhancement that will be added going forward.
In addition to the Smart View app, users can browse any currently installed Smart TV applications from their mobile devices, bringing even more functionality and convenience to the Samsung Apps experience.
"Samsung Smart TV is leading the 'smart revolution' not only with the features of Smart TV itself – such as rich content, 2D and 3D picture quality, smart functions and design – but also with input devices using our Qwerty smart remote control, the Samsung Remote app, and now with Smart View.
"The distinctive functionality of Samsung Smart TVs will continue to deliver the most convenient TV watching experience to consumers – enabling them to truly enjoy a smarter life," concludes Labuschagne.
The Samsung Smart View is now available in the Android Market for Samsung Smart TV D7000, D8000, and D9500 series, as well as the GALAXY S II, and will be available for the GALAXY player (YP-GB70) in July, along with the GALAXY S and GALAXY Tab later this year.

The history of Ireland is closely
tied to clans, septs, or families of Ireland. Most Irish surnames have a
specific meaning. The names often refer to an outstanding characteristic or
trait. Over the years, however, the different families became known for their
particular service to the community. It is appropriate that from time to time we
should present a family history to help bring ourselves closer to our own Irish
The Irish version of Clancy is the
surname MacFhlannchaidh from the personal name Flannchadh which meant red-haired
warrior. The sept developed separately in two counties, Clare and Leitrim. In
Clare, where they were a branch of the McNamaras, the Clancys formed part of the
DalgCais tribal group, and served as the hereditary brehons (lawyers or judges)
to O'Brien chieftains. Their homeland was in the barony of Corcomroe in North
Clare. They remained powerful until the collapse of the Gaelic Aristocracy in
the 1600's. The Leitrim branch were the chiefs of Dartry and Rosclogher again,
until the 1600's.
Many of the Clancys forfeited their
lands following the defeat of the Irish at the siege of Limerick. They joined
the "Flight of the Wild Geese" to Europe, where they distinguished themselves in
the Irish brigades, particularly in the Spanish Netherlands where there were
several Don Clancys holding high army rank.
There are many famous Clancys: Peadar
Clancy, executed by the British during the Irish War for Independence, Willie
Clancy, the famous folklorist and uillieann piper, and the Clancy Brothers folk
group. Here at Division 7 we have our own Vincent Clancy, President. Vinnie has
kept up the honor of the Clancy name through his good counsel, good humor, and
defense and promotion of Irish culture, heritage, and history. As Vinnie
prepares to leave the presidency of this division it is important that we
recognize how he has continued to uphold the honor and the pride of the Irish
and Irish-Americans, the Clancys, and all of us here at Division 7.
Thank you Vinnie.

2am at the Cat's Pajamas by Marie-Helene Bertino
The basic premise of the book is that nine year old Madeleine want to sing at the Cat's Pajamas which is a Philadelphia jazz club. I really wanted to like Madeleine, I really really wanted to but I just had a hard time doing so. I can appreciate her talents and that her life has been really hard and unfair but seriously, she acts like a rebellious 15 yr old.
Some of the other key characters include Sarina, Madeleine's lonely teacher who is in love with a married man, and Lorca, the owner of the Cat's Pajamas.
This was another book on that list of happy books and I'm kind of puzzled by that since it's really not that much of a happy book.
This book covers roughly 24 hrs and manages to pack lots of stuff into that time frame. Also there are many many characters (some of whom we only read about for a couple of pages) all of which seem complex. All of the characters in this book seem broken or maybe it's just that they are more realistic and complex. Either way, not exactly a happy book.
While this book was fast paced, amusing, and definitely interesting, it was ultimately a disappointment for me. I think part of that might have been all the adult content involved in the book (even from the 9 yr old…) or the fact that it was so realistic and ultimately rather inconclusive. Also the ending was super weird to me. Maybe I was in a rush but I got super confused at the very end. Everything else was at least semi-logical and then some totally impossible happens…
Overall an interesting book with some very solid characters (this is definitely more of a character driven book rather than plot driven but there are so many characters that the plot never felt slow) but like I said earlier, I found it kind of a disappointment.

#13 of 2017
What happened to 13? Technically book 13 was Gateway to Faerie by M.D. Bowden which I downloaded for free onto my kindle ages ago and read recently on the bus to and from school for spring break. It's really not worth talking about, that's how mediocre it was. I only put it here to claim that I read another book.

WINNIPEG, MB - If you're looking for a hard-water angling adventure this winter, Manitoba has got you covered. Sure, the thought of visiting Manitoba between December and March when the province is in the middle of winter is not something people often think of. But avid anglers from all over the world wait all year to head to Manitoba for unmatched ice fishing opportunities.
Manitoba is highly-regarded as one of the best places in the world to catch world-class trophy fish. Whether you're looking for huge channel cats, the challenge of hooking a monster lake trout or pulling in that elusive northern pike, underneath the frozen waters of Manitoba's lakes and rivers is an exciting adventure that challenges even the most skilled anglers.
There is no shortage of different species located in the many lakes and rivers throughout the province, but there's one that has become a favorite during the fall and winter months in Manitoba and that's the gorgeous "greenback" walleyes. This amazing colour-phase walleye, which is unique to Lake Winnipeg, showcase iridescent, emerald green on its back and bright silver on its sides. The unique colouration, which is thought to be due to the limestone substrate around Lake Winnipeg, has helped it become one of the most popular and sought-after fish.
In addition to the angling adventure, the breathtaking landscapes surrounding the lakes and rivers are some of the most beautiful in North America. With remote fly-in resorts, hidden gems tucked away, or easily accessible drive-to lakes and rivers, there's something on the wish list for every angler.
North, South, East, or West, there's something for everyone
It doesn't matter what corner of the province you decide to visit, Manitoba provides a variety of signature angling experiences.
The northern part of the province is home to some of the biggest northern trout, walleye, and arctic grayling found anywhere. Whether you're a seasoned angler, a recreational angler, or someone who just loves the relaxation of fishing, there's a chance to hook a "fish of a lifetime" every time you throw your line down the hole. On record, there have been almost 70 pike over 50 inches caught while the provincial record, catch-and-release pike measured an amazing 60.5 inches.
If trout fishing is more your style, you may want to visit the Parkland Region. Known for its abundance of fly-fishing locations in and around Riding Mountain National Park, netting yourself a massive trophy trout during your visit is never out of the question. If you tire of catching trout (if that's even possible), the pristine lakes are also known for being stocked full of walleye and northern pike.
Anglers have been flocking to the eastern section of Manitoba for many years to fish for slab crappie. The east is so popular because of the many options it provides. With various drive-to and sled-to lakes such as Sailing, Big Whiteshell, and North Cross, the eastern part of Manitoba has become a favorite among hard-water anglers.
Don't overlook the western part of the province. In between the rolling hills and vast prairie landscapes lie several trophy trout waters located in the Turtle Mountains.
Lake Manitoba and the Red River highlight the southern portion of the province where largemouth bass, yellow perch, common carp, and walleye are found. Double-digit walleye are regularly found in many areas in the south such as Lockport, Chalet Beach, Selkirk, and Balsam Bay. With so many locations within an hour of Winnipeg, there's a good chance you'll have success on your next ice fishing trip in the south.
Manitoba lakes and rivers are some of the most breathtaking and beautiful in the world no matter what the season. This winter, take some time to chill out on the lakes and rivers in Manitoba. You'll be happy you did!

Updated October 13, 2017 Garmin's new Forerunner 225 GPS sports watch combines cutting-edge technologies to create a running watch that doubles as a life-fitness device. In addition to built-in heart rate monitoring using optical technology, it has an accelerometer that tracks your daily activity and calorie burn. Garmin made heart rate training easier in two ways: You don't need to wear (or purchase) a heart rate monitor strap, and Garmin created a very easy-to-see and follow color-coded heart rate training zone display for the watch. Based on the age and weight that you input during watch set up, the Forerunner 225 automatically establishes heart rate training zones including warmup, easy, aerobic, threshold, and maximum. Color coding, from gray to bright red, as well as a graphical circular display, make it easy to train in your zones. You may also customize all of your heart rate zones since some athletes naturally run above or below the generally recognized standards for age and weight. No Need for a Foot Pod Many of us mix indoor and outdoor workouts, and in the past getting your stats from a treadmill workout involved adding and syncing a foot pod sensor. The Garmin Forerunner 225 GPS does not need a foot pod to measure a treadmill workout, since it can draw upon the data provided by its built-in accelerometer. How the Heart Rate Monitor Works "To measure heart rate at the wrist the Forerunner 225 uses a built-in optical sensor that shines light into a user's skin and measures the amount of light returned," states Garmin. "Because there are slight changes as blood pumps through the wrist, the sensor detects those changes and uses an advanced filtering process to determine reliable and accurate heart rate. Additionally, a light seal on the back of the watch blocks out ambient light to help ensure proper heart rate detection." Auto-Upload to Garmin Connect and Live Tracking I'm a regular user of Garmin's Connect online fitness and training log service and have reviewed it here. It's an excellent freebie and plays very well with Garmin devices. The Forerunner 225 automatically uploads to Connect. "Just download the free Garmin Connect Mobile app to your smartphone and then pair your watch," states Garmin. "When you save your completed run, it will automatically upload when you're in range of your phone. Additional connected features include live tracking, which allows your friends and fans to follow along and see your stats in real-time. You can also share your activities on your social media sites by posting updates through the Garmin Connect Mobile app." Specifications Dimensions: 11.3" x 1.9" x 0.6" (287 mm x 48 mm x 16 mm)Display size: 1.0" (25.4 mm) diameterDisplay resolution: 180 x 180 pixelsColor DisplayWeight: 1.9 oz.

One on of the very few downsides to living in Australia is that it's harder to visit some of the world's most famous gardens. Versailles in France, the Keukenhof Gardens in the Netherlands, the Summer Palace in China, Japan's Ryoan-ji Temple and Canada's Butchart Gardens have to be kept to rare long-haul holidays.
But many garden fans may be unaware that Australia is home to one of gardening's best-kept secrets; the world's largest privately-owned, cool-climate garden. Mayfield Garden in Oberon, New South Wales, is a hidden gem that was created by the Hawkins family only about 20 years ago.
In that short time, Mayfield has grown to boast a breath-taking cascade, walled kitchen gardens, grottos, chapels, bird aviaries and a stunning English rose garden. There's also a beautiful Monet-inspired water garden, complete with lily-covered ponds, bridges, birch trees and fountains, while the larger garden itself uses a mix of native and exotic plants and draws inspiration from European, Japanese and Chinese gardens.
Hamish Keith, CEO of Mayfield Garden, told Starts at 60 the 160-acre garden takes at least 25 full-time gardeners to maintain, and even more during the warmer months. But they're rewarded for their hard work by the crowds who come to admire their expertise. The garden attracted more than 50,000 visitors in 2017 and can take guests a whole day to get through on foot.
Luckily, there are mini-buses operating throughout the property to ferry visitors between spots such as stunning silver birch groves and woodland scenes with maples and oaks. There is even a hedge maze if you are feeling like a challenge.
Keith, who oversees the entire garden, told Starts at 60 a few of his secrets when it comes to creating the perfect garden.
"Understand the soil in your garden – include good, well composted organic matter, ensure your plants are watered and mulched well and your selection of plants are suited to your site," he says. Keith also notes that this season it's the 'old-fashioned' plants such as hydrangeas, escallonias, viburnums and raphiolepis that are making a comeback in popularity.
While he loves every stretch of Mayfield Gardens, he says he has received the most compliments for the six-acre water garden.
"[It has a] spectacular design with incredible water features, sculptures and follies," Keith says. "It transforms throughout each season, from the water lilies in bloom in summer, the spectacular colours of autumn, the raw structure on show in wintertime and the lush growth and abundance of heady scents of spring. The water garden is amazing in all seasons."
Apart from being home to stunning flora, Mayfield Garden also includes three acres of veggie patches with beehives and a palatial village of chicken houses. Mayfield uses the fresh produce from these patches in its own highly rated cafe and for events, as well as to create jams and preserves, soaps and candles.
Mayfield is two-and-a-half hours' drive from Sydney, so not exactly somewhere you can quickly swing by unless you live in the area, but if you're planning a trip to the region, it holds plenty of fun events for you to time your visit to attend. Some of the highlights include a White Party in February, a glamping getaway and an Autumn festival.
Garden tours are available all year round, and there's soon to be even more to see. Keith says some of Mayfield's expansion plans include a healing garden, poison garden, a Norwegian tree walk and a stunning camellia walk.

Egon Schiele Biography
In 1907, Egon Schiele became a protegee of Gustav Klimt, leader of the Vienna Secession group of artists. Schiele's work owes much to Klimt's decorative elegance, however, Schiele emphasized expression over decoration. In 1909, he helped found the New Art Group in Vienna. Important works include "The Self Seer" (1911), "The Cardinal and Nun" (1912), and "Embrace" (1917).
