USB 3.0 Standard to Increase Data Throughput to 10Gbps
The USB 3.0 Promoter Group announces a SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) enhancement that will add a much higher data rate, increasing data throughput performance to 10Gbps.
Specifically, the 10Gbps SuperSpeed USB specification will define a 10Gbps SuperSpeed USB speed mode that extends the existing SuperSpeed definition to deliver twice the data throughput via enhanced, fully backward compatible USB connectors and cables. This supplement to the USB 3.0 specification is expected by the middle of 2013.
Features of the new SuperSpeed USB solution include: compatibility with existing cables, connectors, hubs, and devices; improved data encoding for more efficient data transfer and improved I/O power efficiency; as well as compatibility with existing USB 3.0 software stacks and device class protocols.
The 10 Gbps SuperSpeed USB update is targeted for a 45-day industry review period tentatively beginning February 7, 2012 and ending March 26, 2013. Additional information about the specification can be found at the USB Implementers Forum website. The USB 3.0 Promoter Group consists of Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Microsoft, Renesas Electronics, ST-Ericsson, and Texas Instruments.

Are you ready to sate your short attention span once again? HEY! Look at me when I'm talking to you. Are you ready to sate your short attention span again...oh hell with it, just watch this extreme red band trailer for "ABC's of Death 2".
Halloween season is officially underway! And for all the like minded 'Halloween People' out there this is a time of joy, celebration, and triumph as the waves of 'normies' flock to each one of us for opinions on what to watch throughout the scariest of seasons.
Though we will always have great suggestions and fun picks to throw their way, we're not always 100% caught up to date with the best options during the season. So here at BloodyGoodHorror we have a listing of some of the strongest suggestions theatrically, rental wise, and even the most up to date Netflix Instant suggestions.
Ya know in this day and age when things are so final it's nice to see Danny Boyle keeping things loose when it comes to the question of if "28 Months Later" will happen. According to Boyle there's a 40/60 chance that the film will happen. He also said that he doesn't like zombie movies. He also kind of sounds like a prick. So that's all confirmed now.
The much discussed anthology flick "The ABC's of Death" will finally find its way onto DVD and Blu-Ray on May 21st. For those of you who are jerks and didn't listen to our podcast on the film, it's 26 different shorts each showing one special way to die for every letter in the alphabet. I have no idea why you wouldn't want to listen to the podcast though. Think of my hilarious comments but in sound form. I'm almost jealous that you actually get to hear me and I just have to be me.
The post for Bobcat Goldthwait upcoming found footage flick "Willow Creek" has hit the nets and it looks pretty sweet. It's got all kind of bigfoot action and at first I was disapointed to find out that it has nothing to do with the monster truck but then I got over it. Then I ate some graham crackers.
XLrator Media has picked up the U.S. distribution rights to "The Banshee Chapter", a new 3D flick from first time writer/director Blair Erickson. The film follows a young journalist searching for her friend who has been experimenting with mind-altering drugs in a secret government test. The story is supposedly based on real witness testimonies and is 100% bullcrap and shouldn't be trusted. I don't want to believe.
I've never trusted male flight attendants. I don't care what you say. This one 39 year old one that has been arrested for molesting a sleeping passenger just proves my point. I also don't care for older flight attendants now that I think of it. So this is kind of just two birds with one stone.
One time I was on a bus stuck in traffic outside the New York Port Authority when the driver finally snapped and kicked us all out on the entry ramp. That's not even a joke. But this guy in Nebraska now hold my title for most frightening nut bag bus mover person now that he was caught on camera beating the hell out of a passenger before dragging him off the bus. Just slightly though.
26 different short films, 26 different off topic conversations...
Anthology films, they're so hot right now. Take "ABC's Of Death" a new one that has a short tale for each letter of the alphabet which has just been slapped with a January 31st VOD release date. Take it... I honestly have no idea how to wrap this up.
I've had a little soft spot in my heart for the big screen version of "Preacher" that's been in the works for some time now only because it's the only comic series I've ever read and I like to make annoying comments like, "Oh have you read that? It's a lot better in print form". But the thing has been in limbo for years and I had almost given up on it ever happening. But during a recent interview screenwriter John August dropped word that he really wants to see the film be made but "it won't be any time soon". Thought this was going in a different direction didn't you? Sorry.
Amazon studios still seems like some sort of weird joke to me but apparently it's a real thing and they make movies happen. They've just dropped that they'll be producing the film adaptation of the novel "Seed" which focuses on a family being terrorized by an evil presence that not only wants them to die, but die slowly. No word on director, cast or release date but rest assured you'll know about it as soon as info pops up, along with any new hot deals for your brand new Kindle Hello Kitty cover.
"Paranormal Activity 4" has been given an R rating for language and violence. We're all thinking it... booo no nudity.
Would you lick a NYC subway railing for a dollar? No? Well this kid did.
Did you know there's software that allows the cops to track and control your computer if it's stolen? Did you know that they'll keep the weird nude photos the guy who stole your computer took of himself when they get your computer back? I do now.
Three days down and one to go. No time for long winded introductions as there's too much cinematic madness to sift through. After a while the feeling of being shellshocked started to settle in as the days long bombardment of films threatens to overwhelm.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

Robert Blackson arrived at Temple Gallery in mid–2011. Since then, he has organized a staggering—and unorthodox—level of programming, from a mobile blood bank to 10 audio exhibits about moments of silence, to draw attention to a variety of social issues.
At the time of this interview, the gallery featured a performance–art piece by Philadelphia artist Tim Belknap. Over an eight–week span, Belknap donned a NASA suit and suspended himself in a giant white cube outfitted like a spaceship. In this setup, he used the internet conferencing software Skype to talk to local fourth graders about space exploration. Blackson says the artist was inspired by the shuttering of the NASA program.
How do you choose what will be exhibited in the gallery?
We have an advisory council, made up of people from across campus and Philadelphia. When we meet, everyone brings a question they don´t know the answer to. A discussion ensues about the different issues posed, and we vote. Based on the votes, we decide how much space, money and time to devote to [exhibits in] the gallery.
Robert Blackson sits among two artworks: "Love Songs"—the records on the table, chosen by Lucas Henry in the Boyer College of Music and Dance—and "I<3 CZ," a fiber sculpture by Susie Brandt made from 120 skeins of yarn.
Robert Blackson, curator of the Temple Gallery at Tyler School of Art, explains the gallery´s mission, and what´s behind a somewhat unorthodox installation.
Is that different from how other galleries operate?
It is. Usually, a curator relies on what they´ve seen in the art world, such as what kinds of exhibits they´ve seen, the types of artists they know—things like that. But here at Temple, our mission focuses on what we need to learn about now.
Can you provide an example?
In 2011, we had the Big Shale Teach–In to discuss the issue of fracking. It´s a topic almost all of us are interested in, whether you´re an artist, a geologist or a mother of four worried about your drinking–water supply. We involved a number of speakers from across campus and across the city, to come together to talk about what it means to drill thousands of feet below us, break apart a rock and try to extract the gas within that rock without harming the environment.
We´ve heard that you make your own clothes. How did that start?
That came out of my time [in art school] in Scotland. I arrived in January, and was not prepared for how cold it was. I didn´t have enough clothing, but there was a sewing machine available to students, and I could get fabric cheaply, so I decided to sew things to keep me warm. I´ve been doing it ever since.
With cultural institutions losing money and schools ending their art programs, how do you make the case for art´s importance?
Art instills in us a sense of humanity; we are drawn to it, believe in it and value it. Even amid the destruction and negativity [in the world], there´s a sense that art should be saved. I think that´s been borne out by history. If you visit ancient places such as Greece, they didn´t keep the notes on city–council meetings or voting registration cards; they preserved really curious objects instead.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- Jefferson County Public School officials are still trying to determine who started Instagram accounts that show sexually explicit images.
The accounts were asking for people to submit pictures of students from certain schools and then post racy comments.
The district says this is a clear violation of their policy and is an example of cyberbullying.
The Louisville Metro Police told WHAS11 that as far as they can tell no crime has been committed. In the pictures the students have their clothes on and they can't identify those in the nude pictures.
Some parents say they'd like to see law enforcement take the lead.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"The design says that the background is black. This is partly true because the shadow behind the flowers is black, but the card itself is a deep navy. I was initially concerned because my wedding colors don't include black, but this Save the Date turned out to be exactly what I wanted. I made a few minor changes to text colors, i.e. I changed the color of "Save the Date" and "Formal invitation to follow" from the default deep pink, to the dusty lavender/lavender-grey font option, as I prefer softer colors."
"I thought these were beautiful and very cost effective. I should have looked at the measurements, because they were a little smaller than I was expecting, but overall I'm very happy!"
"The design of Breathtaking Blooms is so pretty and exactly what I was looking for. I was able to customize the font and color to match the style I was going for. The customer service and response times are always fabulous with WPD and it really makes the process so enjoyable. I would recommend this design to others, the quality is great and it arrived faster than I thought. Happy customer!"
"I ordered these Save the Dates after I requested samples and fell in love with the shimmer paper. I'm having a beach wedding and this design reminds me of shells in the sand. The design and ordering process was super easy. After I submitted the design and personalized it, the proofs were e-mailed to me quickly with the changes that the designer made to improve the look of the card. I received them shortly thereafter and they were gorgeous!!! I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase."
"So I kept my save the dates with the yellow orchids, as I am having a wedding in Hawai'i and yellow is one of my three wedding colors. I wanted the pearlescent effect on the cards, and I felt it was definitely worth the extra cost. The invite is petite, simple, yet elegant. The paper quality is perfect! It is very smooth and sturdy - absolutely love it!"

When McDonald's made the decision to begin listing calorie counts on its menus, food watchers throughout the country collectively licked their lips, rubbed their hands in anticipation and dialed up the Schadenfreude to full blast.
"This is going to be good!" they thought. The fast-food behemoth forced to wear its scarlet letter on every row of every backlit menu board.
Then the calorie counts revealed themselves to be, well, far from great — but in the grand scheme of things, not that bad.
A Quarter Pounder with Cheese clocked in at 520 calories, with about 40 percent coming from fat. A Big Mac was a bit more — 550 calories. True, the Angus Bacon & Cheese offered up a full 790 artery-clogging calories for the taking. But this is a burger that, in all fairness, sells itself as a splurge for the overactive appetite rather than a typical meal.
Speaking of typical meals, you might be tempted to outfit this burger with a 250-calorie serving of french fries and a 150-calorie soda, and you will find this non-supersized meal approaches 1,000 calories.
Without getting into your age, gender or lifestyle, you probably can do well by being somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,500 calories on a typical day. Eat a sensible breakfast and a nutritious, home-cooked dinner and that lunch splurge at Mickey D's won't kill you.
Do "better" hamburgers fare as well? And are they as forthcoming with their nutritional information?
If you base nutritional information solely on calorie counts, then no.
I contacted three of Atlanta's best-known gourmet burger outlets — Flip Burger Boutique, Yeah! Burger and Farmburger — to find out how they compared vis-a-vis the Mickster. I also looked up nutritional information for an in-between kind of restaurant, Atlanta-based Ted's Montana Grill.
Of the three, only Flip had nutritional information at the ready. While the information isn't listed on the menu, patrons can ask to see a calorie count. For instance, a "Butcher's Cut" with blue cheese, caramelized onions, soy-truffle vinaigrette, pickled shallots and red wine jam contains 696 calories — a bit less than that Angus McFatty patty, but considerably more than a Big Mac.
Ted's hits the same range with ease. A beef burger on a Kaiser roll with cheddar cheese contains 724 calories before ketchup.
Yeah! Burger currently does not provide any calorie counts but is working with a third-party nutritionist and hopes to offer nutritional information by the end of the year. Because its burgers are so highly customizable with a plethora of toppings and sauces, Yeah! Burger will offer a calorie calculator online. You built the virtual burger with whatever toppings you want, and the calculator keeps a tally.
On the microblogging platform and social networking website Tumblr, one user dubbed One user of Tumblr called "myself-redefined" calculates a Yeah! Burger with avocado, cheddar cheese, grilled onions, mushrooms and tomato, put it on a whole wheat bun and then researched a printed calorie guide to come up with a grand total: 882 calories. That sounds about right.
Farmburger doesn't offer calorie counts and has no intention of doing so, says owner George Frangos.
"It's not that I don't believe in posting calorie counts, but if we did it I'd like to do it right," says Frangos, who was busy opening his third area location in Dunwoody. "I have no idea how to go about it. I'm guessing it would have to be signed and approved by an official somewhere."
He estimates the grind of the beef Farmburger uses is close to 80 percent lean/20 percent fat, which is on the higher end of fat content for ground beef. Throw in one of those buttery griddled buns and a gush of creamy Farmburger sauce, and you surely have a caloric burger.
What can we conclude? If you base nutrition solely on calorie content, then you're probably best off eating at McDonald's.
But, obviously, there's a lot more to the picture than calories. If you factor in salt content, my guess is McDonald's standing would less appealing, as many of the burgers contain more than 1,000 mg of sodium per serving.
Yeah! Burger and Farmburger serve grass-fed beef, which contains much less saturated fat than feedlot-raised beef and has higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial to heart health.
And this is one man's opinion: Any of these burgers tastes a lot better than McDonald's, and when food tastes better it satisfies more. Scratch that burger itch well, and even if the meal contains 1,200 calories, you can make allowances to keep your daily calorie count in line.
But if you need a burger bad and your blood pressure isn't through the roof, then maybe the drive-through would be healthier for you. Seriously.
The real surprise isn't the decision by McDonald's to list calorie counts, it's that it took the company so long to do so.
(Remember my snarky column about McDonald's way back when?)

It used to be that people would eat meals like this for special occasions. Now, people are eating fatty/fried fast food meals all the time, and when you look around, everyone is getting fatter. Am I the only remaining 45 year old male in America that is not fat?
October 1st, 2012

Steve, I'm a 52 year old American male wearing 30W32L pants. I indulge in a delicious burger from somewhere like Farmburger occasionally. I love desserts and fried foods. But, I don't eat those things every day, my typical diet is mostly fresh vegetables that I cook myself. I also get plenty of exercise since I either walk or bike everywhere I go. The key to eating well is always moderation. Enjoy what you like, but just don't overdo it.

It goes without saying that any of the local burger joints probably serve a tastier burger than McDonald's but at what price? McDonald's takes a lot of, in my humble opinion, undeserved flack for producing a consistent, reasonably priced and now we're learning, not terribly nutritionally bad product. I've traveled the world over and those Golden Arches have often provided a much needed taste of home. If you really want to have caloric shock when it comes to burgers, Five Guys' bacon cheeseburger weighs in at 920 calories and that's before any additional toppings are accounted for. A large fry is a whopping 1474 calories. Ignore the guilt by adding a Diet Coke, make it a large.

Great article, I am a food lover, and don't always work out like I should so I have to try to keep my fat intake as low as possible. However that does not mean I won't be enjoying a grear hamburger now and then. Especially homemade! Homemade burgers usually come in around only 380 cal and are just as tasty.

I've said it so many times it's like second nature to type it now – MODERATION. When we learn to inject it into our daily lives, we are the better for it.
Food like McDonald's, and by extension the gourmet burger clan, is good for the soul. And the soul needs sustaining just like the body. It's just that the soul needs far less (read, far fewer trips to the burger joint) to maintain its happy place.

Again with McDonald's, John. Have you ever blogged about Burger King? Arbee's? Wendy's? Long John Silver's? Just curious, since you seem to have a burr under your saddle when it comes to McD's. Either they didn't hire you ages ago for that first summer job, or a McDonald's franchise owner kicked your dog when you were ten. Yes, I just made those up—but I really am curious.

Balt, while I realize you are unnaturally obsessed with me, and I should be flattered by your quasi-stalking, at least my comment was on-topic. Unlike yours, which was simply a personal attack on another commenter. Why you are allowed such an indulgence begs the question of what sort of information you have on Mr. Kessler.
Paddy, my husband enjoys the same foods as me, we share the cooking duties.
October 3rd, 2012

Edward,I am allowed that indulgence by the AJC because you make it so easy for us to be entertained. It is the Entertainment Section. I am not obsessed with you. You just make it so darn easy I can't help myself!
October 3rd, 2012
12:29 pm
Balt, your comments have been reported. This is not a forum for your continued harassment and if Mr. Kessler does not take action, perhaps my lawyer will. I'm sick of your stalking on this (and possibly other) forum. You are hereby warned.

Edward, I'm sorry that your feelings have been hurt. Even if this blog is part of the Entertainment Section it should be entertaining to most everyone; at least those of us who enjoy reading and talking about food. I beg to differ that your comments were on-topic. The topic was "How Burgers Stack Up". In your post you stated the following: 1. You are 52. 2. You wear a 30/32 pant. 3. You occasionally eat Farmburgers and they're yummy. 4. You like desserts and fried foods. 5. You mostly eat fresh vegetables which you prepare. 6. You get lots of exercise, etc. etc. Of the 6 facts, that I counted in your post, only one came close to addressing the topic while the rest sounded like a Match.com post. Each of us is probably guilty of occasionally straying from the topic to make our own personal pet peeves known or have a little fun with other blog regulars and when we do, we probably shouldn't take ourselves, or the comments other people make, so seriously.

Art, so have you chastised the two commenters before me, the ones I was responding to? It is great that you enjoy taking my comments out of context, are you always so disingenuous? Your lengthy diatribe is way off-topic, as well.
I come here to participate in a community-driven food blog, where we all are free to express our opinions on the dining offerings of our city. Yet some people seem to view it as a game wherein they can score points by attacking others, making it a hostile environment. And people like Art give the attackers kudos. Nice job, Art.

It doesn't happen very often. The opening day of training camp is usually story enough as the Green Bay Packers take the field for the first time each summer, but today, the initial practice was overshadowed by the four year contract extension given to popular wide receiver Jordy Nelson. The veteran entering his 7th season with the Pack signed a deal that will keep him in a Packer uniform through 2018 and earn him a reported 39 million dollars, 11.5 million up front in a signing bonus and 14.2 million guaranteed. Three years ago, Nelson signed a very modest extension coming off his original rookie deal. He's been the most consistently productive receiver on the team since the Super Bowl season, with 85 receptions for 1314 yards last year, scoring 8 touchdowns. The year before he caught 15 TD's and has over 300 career catches for nearly 4600 yards.
Jordy formally signed the contract before the first practice of camp and told his fellow receivers and quarterback Aaron Rodgers the news on the field complete with smiles and high fives. After practice, the reaction to the new deal came from first, the man of the hour:
Audio: Jordy Nelson.
You can also hear the thoughts from his coach Mike McCarthy...
Audio: Mike McCarthy.
And from his quarterback, Aaron Rodgers....
Audio: Aaron Rodgers.
As for the rest of the camp's opening workout... It lasted about two hours and under CBA rules, in only shells (helmets, shorts and thin shoulder pads). Clay Matthews was a full participant coming off the pair of broken thumbs last year. He was excited to work with former Chicago Bear Julius Peppers for the first time. Micah Hyde got nearly all the first team reps at safety opposite Morgan Burnett. The tight end position had Brandon Bostick get some first team reps, as did rookie Richard Rodgers. Nelson, Kevin Dorsey and Davante Adams had impressive catches during team drills, tight end Colt Lyerla wasn't as fortunate with a noticeable drop.
Five players did not take part in the first practice. Mike Neal (core injuries), Letroy Guion (hamstring), Nick Perry (foot, knee), Jerel Worthy (low back) and Jeff Janis (illness). After practice, McCarthy said Neal and Perry are close to returning, it could still be some time for Worthy.
The opening day crowd of railbirds was sizeable, the bike brigade tradition took a big step forward with a ribbon cutting ceremony before practice. The Dream Drive was established for the promenade between the player's entrance and the practice fields across Oneida Street. It includes not only the kids who hook up with players on their two wheelers, but a handful of chariot bikes with bench seat for kids to ride along in.

via the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
A source close to Hayward said the second-year player doesn't expect to play in the first month of the season.
Hayward was declared out of the San Francisco early in the week.
"I don't really have a time line for Casey," coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday. "I hope his status is different next week."

The "Stache" cannot deal with the rigors of being a professional. When he left Gonzaga he fell off of a cliff and his production floundered. What do Olshea and Stotts have on their mind. Perhaps they should check out the videos of Adam on youtube and rethink their position.

7 blocks against Denver. Not only is he performing well within the teams offense, becoming a defensive stopper will only add to his value as a Blazer. IMO the offense should run through LMA. He is becoming a beast and realizing that he can't be stopped if he gets the ball down low is making his con...

After a total of 27 hours of heated debate among Senate and House members, day care workers will be able to unionize in Minnesota. A day care provider and opponent of this bill Hollee Saville and Lisa Thompson, a day care provider who supports the bill both joined us on FOX at 9 to discuss both sides of the argument.
Jeff Passolt: "Hollee, you're against this bill, but supporters point out it only means you and other day care providers can now vote on whether to join a union, let the people decide, isn't that a good thing?"
Hollee Sayville: "Well actually I will not be getting a vote because i do not currently have any children who receive child care assistance in my childcare. So I would be excluded from this vote this vote would exclude approximately sixty percent of licensed family child care providers from deciding something that will affect our profession because all child care providers whether they accept child care assistance or not follow the same licensing regulations and the unions have said that they will petition the government to make changes to training licenses rules, grievances as well as the C-CAP program and legislators already have the ability to raise that right, right now."
Jeff Passolt: Lisa, a lot of parents at home right now care about one thing. Does this mean I'm going to be paying more? What does this bill do for cost and care?
Lisa Thompson: ""Well as contradictory as it sounds this bill is really going to help us child care providers control the cost of care., the standards have been raised over the last ten years significantly and the quality of care in our state is really high and this opportunity will allow us the opportunity to get a handle on the costs."
Jeff Passolt: "I also want to ask you about what at least one person in favor of this bill after it passed. She said, it means we can ask daycare providers to join, but we won't force you to join. Can you assure people of that?
Lisa Thompson "Absolutely this is Minnesota no one is forced to join a union in Minnesota."
Hollee Sayville: "Oh, I respectfully disagree. The bill specifically says that providers, who receive or accept children on assistance, will be forced to pay in the form of union dues or fair share fees. They will not have a choice on that respect."
Jeff Passolt: "Is it one way or the other?"
Lisa Thompson: "well I am really not a law expert that's in a territory I'm not an expert on but what I do know is that union membership in Minnesota is voluntary."
Hollee Sayville: "But union representation is not and Minnesota is a fair share state and in Minnesota you'd be required to pay up to 80 percent of fair share fees and in all the other 16 states that unionize family child care providers--all the ones that are fair share states have charged providers fair share fees even though they may not want to pay the Union."
Jeff Passolt: "Hollee you don't want to opt out of this? .
Hollee Sayville: "If you are registered to accept children on assistance and a majority of ballots cast vote yes to unionize then yes every provider who accepts children on assistance will be forced to pay the union in their form of union dues if they choose to be a member or fair share fees. That is not a choice."
Jeff Passolt: "Ok so Lisa what is this going to do to improve daycare overall for people?"
Lisa Thompson: "Well we've seen how much having a union improves an industry in occupations like nurses and teachers by us having the opportunity to join together on issues we have the opportunity to. If childcare providers across the state decide this is what we you know we'll have a chance to vote on this and decide what it is that we as a group want to do together.
Jeff Passolt: "As we heard earlier form a daycare provider that it enhances her career do you agree with that Lisa?"
Lisa Thompson: "Absolutely this is going to raise the level of professionalism especially in female dominated professions and businesses."
Jeff Passolt: "Hollee you get the final word."
Hollee Sayville: "I absolutely disagree I'm an independent small business owner and if i want my program to be quality it's my choice whether or not AI want to do that and a union cannot possibly offer me anything that I cannot do myself I already have a voice and we are awesome providers already and the union is just going to take more money up 300 dollars a year is the minimum, in Illinois it's 900 dollars a year in New York it's up to 700 --Providers are already struggling and it's going to give limited access to families who have children on assistance."

|Digital Principles and Design with CD-ROM
|Donald Givone
|This exciting first edition provides more depth than existing digital design books, using a traditional approach to the subject. Digital Principles and Design contains introductory material in digital principles with emphasis on logic design, as well as more advanced material. With the exception of the digital circuits appendix, it assumes no background on the part of the reader. The text can be used by readers in computer science, computer engineering and electrical engineering. The emphasis in the book is on the thorough presentation of basic principles of logic design and the illustration of these principles. While many introductory texts only provide the mechanics of classical logic design, Givone provides justifications behind these procedures to give students the understanding they need for the advanced topics they will learn about in subsequent courses. Some of the topics that the book thoroughly presents include: the simplification of Boolean expressions with Karnaugh maps, variable-entered Karnaugh maps, and the analysis and design of both clocked synchronous sequential networks and asynchronous sequential networks. Every book contains a CD-ROM with Altera's advanced MAX+plus II 10.1 Student Edition CAD system, as well as Multisim 2001 Textbook Edition from Electronics Workbench. An appendix and the book website provide additional resources on these software tools, as well as LogicWorks.

Weight Loss & Diet Plans
Focus on Fitness, Not Fatness
Aug. 9, 2004 -- Obesity is a real problem. But the myths we build around it make the problem worse.
The first myth: Fat is bad; thin is good.
The second myth: If you weigh more than "normal," you must lose weight to be healthy.
The third myth: Anyone who is overweight can -- and should -- become thin.
That's the central theme of the new book The Obesity Myth: Why America's Obsession With Weight Is Hazardous to Your Health. Author Paul Campos, JD, is a University of Colorado law professor. He's not a medical doctor -- but he can cite medical literature with the best of them. Perhaps more importantly, he interviewed more than 400 people about their relationship with food, body image, and dieting.
"We are in the grip of a moral panic," Campos tells WebMD. "It is a form of cultural hysteria in which a risk is tremendously exaggerated. Weight has become a dumping ground for neurotic behavior in the culture as a whole. It is this tendency to think in eating-disordered ways that grips American culture."
Focus on Fitness
When we think about "getting in shape," the shape we think about is thin. Being in good shape means improving fitness, but we focus on reducing fatness instead.
Campos points to several major studies often cited as proof that fat kills. A close reading, he says, leads to a different conclusion.
"The crucial variable was not weight but lifestyle changes -- healthy eating and exercise, which seem to be very beneficial whether they produce any weight loss or not," he says. "When people do become more physically active and are cognizant of their nutritional intake, they get real health benefits. Just a little weight loss -- or even no weight loss -- was as good as a lot of weight loss."
CDC data support this idea. CDC epidemiologist Edward W. Gregg, PhD, led a team that analyzed data from some 6,400 overweight and obese adults. They found that people who tried to lose weight -- and did -- live longer than those who don't try to lose weight. That wasn't a surprise.
"What was unexpected was those who tried to lose weight -- but didn't -- those people had a mortality benefit," Gregg tells WebMD. "And our best speculation as to the reason is there are behaviors that go along with weight loss attempts that are good for you. These may have positive effects regardless of whether a person is able to maintain weight loss. They adopt more active lifestyles, they change diets. Over the long haul they are not successful at losing weight, but these lifestyle changes seem to help."
Steven N. Blair, PED, president and CEO of the Cooper Institute, Dallas, is perhaps America's leading advocate for a focus on fitness. He contributed a blurb to Campos' book cover.

Cafe' du Hall is a family owned and operated cafe new to the Eugene area. We opened our doors August 1, 2011.
We have had Le Shoppe, a French boutique, for 7 years and when Le Shoppe relocated from Junction City to Eugene 2 1/2 years ago we thought how wonderful it would be to have a flower shop or cafe to compliment the shop. When space became available 2 doors down from the shop, we followed our dream.
As you can see, the cafe won over the flower shop and Cafe' du Hall was established.
We want to provide a unique, classy, relaxing atmosphere for our customers. You can come for coffee and pastries in the morning, delicious soup, salad or gourmet sandwiches for lunch, or just an ice cream or slice of pie anytime. Inside or outside seating is available with free wireless access and small birthday parties, anniversaries, or book club meetings are always welcome.
Our goal is to welcome you to our charming cafe and have you go away pleased with your experience.

LA Review: 'Short Ends'
at the Open Fist Theatre Company as part of the First Look Festival
Reviewed by Travis Michael Holder
July 15, 2012
Overall, director Amanda Weier's staging is a clever complement to the writing, but the acting is not a fitting indicator of what can customarily be expected of this fine company of players. Weier's most obvious contribution is the inclusion of Shermel Carthan, who plays a homeless beggar in "The Wager" and also appears between each of the pieces, waiting just offstage with his prop-filled shopping cart, to change the set and inscribe the name of each new offering on the stage floor in chalk. Stationed outside the theater before the show while holding a sign asking for spare change—something so frequent in this Hollywood location that most people avert their eyes—Carthan then enters the lobby and wanders onstage as the audience is seated. The collective touch of danger running through the house proves what LaBute is jabbing into our ribs: We have forgotten how to deal with anyone not like us, those lurking "beneath the charred and discarded corpses left by the roadside."
Carthan is filled with personality but needs to be held down at times in "The Wager," which would be better if all three actors didn't work so hard. The same is true of Maxie Solters in a frantic monologue spoken to the silent Jessica Ires Morris in "Sexting." The opposite is the case as Colin Walker paces aimlessly in the world premiere of the solo "Pony of Love." Walker should have traded a little of the imperviousness in his delivery for a dollop of Solters' indulgence. Dylan Maddalena and Catherine Urbanek have the most fun in "BFF," milking great comic moments from a script with a twist ending that's too easily guessed. In "Romance," Morris returns to give the evening's most outstandingly simple and direct performance, but her castmate Elizabeth Greer overdoes showing us how upset her character is.
There is a hint of LaBute's signature habit of launching direct hits on the mores of our species as we hurl ourselves thoughtlessly into an increasingly screwed-up future. Still, when "Short Ends" arrives at its expedient end, it leaves us unaffected—coming up, well, short.
Presented by and at the Open Fist Theatre Company as part of the First Look Festival, 6209 Santa Monica Blvd., L.A. July 13–Aug. 4. Remaining performances: Sun., July 22, 2 p.m.; Sat., July 28, 8 p.m.; Sun., July 29, 2 p.m.; Sat., Aug. 4, 2 p.m. (323) 882-6912 or www.openfist.org.

Trade-Ideas: EBay (EBAY) Is Today's "Roof Leaker" Stock
- EBAY has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $402.6 million.
- EBAY has traded 5.2 million shares today.
- EBAY is trading at 1.82 times the normal volume for the stock at this time of day.
- EBAY crossed below its 200-day simple moving average.
'Roof Leaker' stocks are worth watching because trading stocks that begin to experience a breakdown can lead to potentially massive losses. Once psychological and technical resistance barriers like the 200-day moving average are breached on higher than normal relative volume, the stock may then be subject to emotional selling from investors that can continue to drive the stock lower. Regardless of the impetus behind the price and volume action, when a stock moves with weakness and volume it can indicate the start of a new, potentially dangerous, trend. EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Get the inside scoop on opportunities in EBAY with the Ticky from Trade-Ideas. See the FREE profile for EBAY NOW at Trade-Ideas More details on EBAY: eBay Inc. provides online platforms, tools, and services to help individuals and merchants in online and mobile commerce and payments in the United States and internationally. EBAY has a PE ratio of 27.2. Currently there are 24 analysts that rate eBay a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 7 rate it a hold. The average volume for eBay has been 9.4 million shares per day over the past 30 days. eBay has a market cap of $71.4 billion and is part of the services sector and retail industry. The stock has a beta of 0.98 and a short float of 1.3% with 2.08 days to cover. Shares are up 8.2% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday. STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12-months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates eBay as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, reasonable valuation levels, good cash flow from operations and increase in stock price during the past year. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 22.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 14.1%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Although EBAY's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.21 is very low, it is currently higher than that of the industry average. To add to this, EBAY has a quick ratio of 1.73, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $1,011.00 million or 31.64% when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of 14.22%.
- Compared to where it was a year ago today, the stock is now trading at a higher level, regardless of the company's weak earnings results. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market.

The teams competing in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl made the rounds at Children's Healthcare facilities on Thursday. Louisiana State University and Clemson football players distributed team gear and signed autographs to young patients. LSU players offered words of encouraged to small patients facing big health challenges at Scottish Rite. "He loves playing all sports. Football is one of them. He liked it. They made his day," said Peggy Sall, a mother of a young patient. Across town, Clemson players visited the Egleston campus. "To have an opportunity to see these kids is something that we get more out of than they do, to be honest," said Clemson coach William Christopher "Dabo" Swinney. The players made a big impression on the kids and provided inspiration. "That's wonderful for the little kids to have fun while they're in here," said Yasmine Tate, the mother of a patient. Players said they were grateful for the chance to give back. "Really coming and being able to give back is such a huge deal. We're so blessed to play this game. To come and to give back to these kids is a huge part of it," said LSU Tigers player Ben Dominque. Every year the football teams in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl visit children at local hospitals.On Thursday night, both teams will take part in go-cart races at Andretti Racing. They will hold news conferences on Friday. Monday is the Chick-Fil-A Bowl parade and game.

Question: Justified is the very best cable has to offer. It is well written and the actors seem to have been born to play those characters. I cannot believe how you can love and hate a person at the same time, but with Boyd (Walton Goggins), that is the way it is. Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) is the good/bad guy that women want to love and men want to kill or the very least knock out! Please tell me that Art (Nick Searcy) and Raylan are going to end as friends. Raylan and Art were more than friends by the second season and I would hate to think Art would distance himself from Raylan because he did not intervene when Nicky Augustine got his just desserts! — Ann
Who dat? Only the best thing to happen to American Idol in this post—Simon Cowell era.
Harry Connick Jr. may not be as instantly recognizable as his fellow Idol panelists Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban, but in a world where too many reality-show judges act more like cheerleaders (yes, The Voice, this even applies to you), this New Orleans crooner and accomplished cutup has what I'd call (apologies to Cowell) the X — or expert — factor. He's exceptionally entertaining, extremely knowledgeable and expansively personable — even when his explosive opinions earn him the labels "Hatchet Harry" and "Harsh Harry" from the kinder, gentler Lopez and the occasional disgruntled contestant. But how can you not love an Idol judge who hates the word pitchy and refuses to be wowed by caterwauling vocal gymnastics?
Person of Interest fans were stunned in November when the CBS drama killed off original cast member Taraji P. Henson's Detective Carter. But no one took it harder than her castmates. "I really miss working with Taraji," Kevin Chapman, who plays Carter's partner Detective Lionel Fusco, tells TVGuide.com. "She was very gracious, and we just really connected. We had a lot of fun. We'd go to basketball games together and dinners. I really miss having her around."Postmortem: Person of Interest bosses, Taraji P. Henson break down shocking twist
Though Chapman misses his former scene partner, he's well aware of how much meaty material Carter's death has given him to play....read more

Question: I've decided it's time to ask you how would you like to see Sandra Oh (Cristina Yang) leave Grey's Anatomy. This might come up more often as the season nears an end in May, but I can't stop thinking about it. While I love Cristina and aspire to be as fierce as she is, I think they should kill her off, but not in a mean way — in a way that could build a great emotional arc for Kevin McKidd (Owen). I think they should have one more romp in the sack where she gets pregnant and he convinces her to keep the baby this time, only to lose Cristina during the birth! I know I sound all evil genius right now, but I think that would give Owen more issues than he can handle and I think it will bring all those close to Cristina (especially Meredith) to a level of respecting Cristina's initial decision to never have kids. Just my thoughts. I think her exit will be flawless. Shonda Rhimes is a TV goddess and I'm sure will make us all proud. — Erica

Today's history lesson: You shouldn't always believe what you hear. Long before TV, let alone social media like Twitter and Facebook, the medium of radio held sway over the public consciousness — and more to the point, the collective imagination — in a way that now seems hard for many to fathom. One visionary who understood its potential and power was Orson Welles, "prodigy and provocateur," who at the astonishingly precocious age of 23 triggered a Halloween eve panic in 1938 with his innovative and infamous CBS Radio adaptation of H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds.
Root is out of the psych ward and ready to rock! On tonight's Person of Interest, Amy Acker's undeniably devious, possibly crazy cybercrusader has a long-awaited showdown with — and then teams up alongside — Sarah Shahi's cold-blooded supersoldier, Samantha Shaw. "Shaw knows that when she's with Root, s--t's gonna go down," Shahi says. "One or both of them will wind up in the hospital, but it's gonna be fun."

(Too bad he didn't exactly invite Sarah as his date.) Making matters worse, Sarah meets a potential new photography client at the event, but she soon learns that her competition for the gig is...

Raul Mondesi Jr. may have set a record for fastest transformation from hero to villain in any sporting event in history on Monday night. With Helena — a Rookie League team in the Brewers organization — trailing 2-0 in the bottom of the 10th against the Missoula Osprey, Mondesi blasted a two-run homer over the left field wall to tie the score at 2-2. The score remained that way for a little over a minute.
As you can see from the video above that Deadspin shared with us, Mondesi failed to touch home plate. Osprey catcher Michael Perez immediately noticed the brain fart and set his pitcher up for the appeal. The home plate umpire, who was looking right at Mondesi's feet as he hopped over the plate, immediately made the "out" signal and Osprey went on the win 2-1.

The RCAF's third nigh-fighter, No. 410 Squadron, formed on Defiants at Ayr at the end of June 1941, moving to Drem in August with detachments located at several other airfields. Beaufighter II's replaced the Defiants in April and in June the Squadron returned to Ayr, with a detachment a Drem, before moving to Scorton in September and to Acklington in October where it converted to deHavilland Mosquito Mk II's, with which the first victory was claimed. In February 1943 the unit moved to Coleby Grange to undertake some 'Ranger' sorties, while a detachment moved to Predannack. Mosquito Mk VI's supplemented the Mk II's from July, while in November the unit moved to Hunsdon where in December Mosquito Mk XII's replace the earlier types. In June 1944 a move was made to Zeels where the Squadron became part of the 2nd TAF (Tactical Air Force), moving to Colerne in July, and in August commenced conversion to the Mosquito Mk XXX.

Most visitors' first sight of the southern Nicoya Peninsula is from the soothing, slow-paced ferry from Puntarenas: you'll see its low brown hills rising up in the distance, ringed by a rugged coastline and pockets of intense jungly green. Much of the region, though, has been cleared for farming or cattle grazing, or, in the case of the surf towns on its far southwestern tip, given over to tourism.
The area's main town is Cóbano, a dull transport hub with a petrol station, a post office and a Banco Nacional with an ATM, a rare convenience in these parts. Most tourists pass straight through on their way to the thriving coastal towns of Mal País, Santa Teresa or Montezuma, one of Costa Rica's most popular beach hangouts. The partly paved road to Montezuma, lined by acres of cattle pasture, offers a startling – and disconcerting – vision of the future of the deforested tropics. Once covered with dense primary Pacific lowland forest, today only stumps dot the fields. Still, heroic efforts are being made by local conservationists to create a biological corridor throughout the peninsula, with the wildlife refuges of Reserva Karen Mogensen and Curú proving that nature can – and is – making a comeback.

The wildlife-rich REFUGIO DE VIDA SILVESTRE RESERVA KAREN MOGENSEN, 20km southwest of Playa Naranjo, offers the most rewarding ecotourism experience on the southern Nicoya Peninsula. This nine-square-kilometre patch of primary and secondary dry-humid tropical forest functions as both a private reserve and tourist lodge and has become the most crucial link in an expanding biological corridor that runs between the Reserva Natural Absoluta Cabo Blanco, 85km south at the end of the peninsula, and Parque Nacional Barra Honda, 50km north in Guanacaste. Named after the late Karen Mogensen, the Danish conservationist who was instrumental in creating Cabo Blanco, the reserve was established in 1996 by the local not-for-profit ASEPALECO (t 2650-0607, w http://www.asepaleco.com) – a name that references the peninsula's three main towns, Paquerea, Lepanto and Cóbano.
Fence removal, tree planting and natural regeneration has returned this former patch of farmland into a fully functioning jungle ecosystem. Endangered plant species such as rónrón, mahogany, teak and ebony grow in the reserve, while white-faced and howler monkeys abound, and deer roam the forest, preyed on by elusive pumas. More than 240 species of birds have been spotted, including great curassows, motmots, long-tailed manakins, spectacled owls and three-wattled bellbirds.
Five kilometres of well-maintained hiking trails run through the reserve, leading to lookouts with jaw-dropping views of the Gulf of Nicoya as well as to one of the most breathtaking waterfalls in the country – the 18m Catarata Velo de Novia (Bridal Veil Falls), which cascades down a rounded cliffside before dropping to a deep, turquoise swimming hole.
The popular beach resort of MONTEZUMA lies about 40km southwest of Paquera, near the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. Some three decades ago, a handful of foreigners seeking solitude fell in love with Montezuma and decided to stay. In those days, it was just a sleepy fishing village, largely cut off from the rest of the country, but today Montezuma draws tourists galore, and virtually every establishment in town offers gringo-friendly food and accommodation and sells tours. Nevertheless, it still feels like a village because large-scale development has been kept to a minimum – and it's still a bit of an effort to get here.
Montezuma and the area south to the Reserva Absoluta Cabo Blanco features some of Costa Rica's loveliest coastline: leaning palms and jutting rocks dot the white-sand beaches. Here you can enjoy uninterrupted views of the Pacific, especially arresting when the occasional lightning storm illuminates the horizon and silky waters. Inland, thickly forested hills, including rare Pacific lowland tropical forest, dominate the landscape.
