Building Your Own PC
Are you ready for some more computer knowledge? I thought you might be. I've been getting some good responses from these articles and it's great to know I've been able to help. Okay, let's keep going, full force forward!
Part 5
Choosing the Right CPU
There are basically two main brands of processor manufactures: AMD and Intel. Both companies make really good processors and the performance difference between the two is so small that you will not be able to tell which processor is better. This article isn't going to focus on which brand is better, but rather, it is going to describe what really matters when it comes to buying a processor for your computer.
The first thing you have to consider when choosing a processor is what you are going to be doing on your computer. If you don't play games that often, or at all, you will end up saving a lot of money by buying an older processor. However, if your intentions are to build a new computer that can play all the recent graphics intense games, be prepared to spend a little extra cash on a better processor.
The next thing you need to consider is how much you will be using your computer. The more you use your computer, the more you will be doing on it. If you only plan on using your computer for browsing the Web, checking your e-mail and running a few office applications, then you can get away with spending no more than $25 to $80 for everything you need. Knowing how often you are going to use your computer will help you decide how powerful of a processor you will need. If you only spend a few hours a week on your computer, it would be a waste of your money to get the fastest processor available. Browsing the Internet, checking e-mails and running office applications are not very demanding on any computer.
As I said before, if you plan on playing graphics intense games, you will be spending quite a bit more on a processor. Some of the newest games on the market today require at least a minimum of a 2.0 GHz or higher in processing speed. The prices for these processors usually start at around $100. Before we talk more about what to look for in your processor, let's talk about what really matters in all the mumbo jumbo specification lists you will be seeing when looking for a processor.
Processor Specifications
The typical specifications that you will see when searching for a processor are: Brand, series, model type, socket type, core type, operating frequency, FSB, L1 and L2 cache and a few others. The most important ones to look at are the FSB, the operating frequency and the socket type.
Socket Type
For obvious reasons, the socket type must be looked at first. It has to be of a socket that your motherboard supports. If it isn't, you will have to either choose a different motherboard or a different processor. There are several different types of sockets, but the only reason it matters for the average users is for motherboard compatibility.
FSB stands for front side bus speeds. It is a unit of measurement that will tell you how fast your computer can send information across your motherboard. This number is measured in MHz (megahertz), usually. If you plan on using your computer for surfing the Web or running office applications, you will be able to get by with a FSB of around 533 MHz. I wouldn't go any lower than that, because it is extremely hard to find a processor with a lower FSB speed. 533 MHz is really all the speed you need for doing your online and office applications. For a gaming computer however, you will want the FSB to be as high as possible. Whatever you use your computer for, the FSB is the determining factor in how fast information is passed through your motherboard.
Operating Frequency
The operating frequency is what determines how fast your processor sorts and processes information. Think of it as solving a complex math problem. The faster the operating frequency is, the faster you will get an answer. Operating frequencies today are measured in GHz (gigahertz). This is like a unit of electronic speed measurement. The higher the number, the faster the processor.
Operating Frequency and FSB Working Together
These two "specs" work hand in hand in deciding how fast your computer operates as a whole. The processor is responsible for solving problems, running the code for applications you run and sorting information. After the processor has done its task, it then passes the information through the motherboard at the FSB speed. However, keep in mind that motherboards also have an FSB speed. If your processor's FSB is faster than your motherboard's FSB, you will create what we call a bottleneck. This bottleneck of information will potentially slow your computer down. If your processor is sorting the information at high speeds and trying to pass it through the motherboard and the motherboard is already "full" of information, the information will have to wait for an open spot before it can be passed.
Once again, do not get too worked up over FSB speeds. Motherboards and socket types generally make it work. No matter what processor you choose, the FSB speeds are typically the same. Faster processors require faster motherboards. This helps avoid creating bottlenecks of information and will keep your computer running smooth.
If this is still confusing for you, then just keep something in mind. For the average user who uses a computer for browsing or running office applications, stick with an FSB of 533 MHz or higher and an operating frequency of 1.2 GHz or higher. For gamers, you will typically want at least 800 MHz of FSB and an operating frequency of at least 2.0 GHz.
Your last choice in picking a CPU is whether you want an OEM processor or a retail processor. The biggest issue in buying a retail or OEM version is price and packaging. The OEM version of processors cost anywhere from $5 to $50, which is less than the retail version. If this is your first time installing a processor, I would highly recommend getting a retail, boxed processor. There are several reasons for this.
The first is that the retail boxed version of any processor comes with everything you need, including a heatsink and thermal paste already applied to it. OEM processors are simply just the processor in a small cardboard box. OEM processors come with no documentation on how to install it. Retailed versions of processors come with the documentation. As I said before, it would be wise to invest in the retailed version, because if you do not understand how to install the heatsink and processor, based on what is written in the next article, the documentation supplied with the retail version of the processor will go into a lot more exact information on how to install it.
And that brings us to the next article where we will go through the detailed process of installing a processor and a heatsink to your motherboard. I'm not done yet, so keep on going with me. We're just getting to the good parts now!
Part 6
Take Extreme Caution
This is possibly the most risky part of building your computer. If you do not seat the processor into the socket properly, you could run the risk of bending a pin. Bending a pin on the processor could either cut the performance in a third or render it useless. So, be extremely careful when you are installing it! I build computers for a living and I have bent more than my share of processor pins. It's really easy to bend them and it's almost impossible to tell if the pin is bent in some situations. You do not want your processor looking like this:
For the most part, no matter which processor you choose, the installation process will be the same. The purpose of this article is to give you a basic idea of how the installation process will go. When you buy a retail version of a processor, it comes with documentation on how to install it correctly. I urge you to follow those directions first and only come here for reference. Since most processors are different, I can't go into how to install each and every processor on the market. Instead, I'll simply go over the general procedure on how to install an AMD Athlon processor with a heatsink. Use this article at your own risk. I, in no way, will be responsible for you bending pins!
Installing the CPU
Enough documentation comes with your CPU to keep you busy reading for awhile. Regardless of what is written here, read your documentation! Here is a screen shot of what a typical new age CPU looks like.
This may seem a little overwhelming because of all the tiny parts, but it isn't that difficult. Take note of the small triangle located on the back picture of the CPU. Now, let us take a look at what this processor fits into, the motherboard socket.
In order to find the correct orientation of the processor, you have to locate a small, inset triangle on the socket. It can be a little difficult to see or find. Be sure to check your motherboard documentation before you proceed. Once you find it, simply line the triangle up on the back of the processor with the triangle on the socket.
Before we install it however, you have to lift up the little black lever. All sockets are different and the lever may be black or silver or any color that the manufacturer chooses. Just remember that it must be lifted up, as far as it will go, before you try to seat the CPU into the socket. When seating the processor into the socket, double check to see if the two triangles are matched up and make sure the lever is completely up. There is only one correct orientation that the processor will fit correctly into. If you follow the documentation supplied with the processor and motherboard, you should have no problems doing this.
Once they are lined up, give your CPU a little push to make sure it is seated all the way. Once again, be sure to double check this. It's often rather difficult to tell if the processor is in all the way or not. If your eye sight isn't very good, invest in a magnifying glass of some sort.
After you are sure it's in there correctly, slowly lower the lever. It will take a little pressure to push it back down, especially with a brand new motherboard. Don't worry if you hear a small squeak noise, it's very common. Voila! You have installed a CPU! It wasn't that hard, was it?! Now, you're not quite done yet. We still have to install a heatsink.
The above picture is that of a basic heatsink. It consists of a metal "block" used to conduct heat, a small 8mm fan and a few wires. Heatsinks come in different sizes and shapes, but if you get a retail processor, you will most likely get one that looks like the above picture.
Now, you may have noticed a black square mount surrounding your socket. This is where the heatsink mounts to. There are notches, circled in red, in which the heatsink bracket needs to line up with.
In the pictures above, you can see how the notches of the socket hook onto the heatsink. The tool used is a flat head screw driver. There is an inset space on the heatsink clamp specifically for it. There may or may not be a slot for the screwdriver on both sides of the bracket. If it is only on one side, you will want to start with the side that doesn't have it.
Use the screwdriver for the other side. It will take quite a bit of pressure to get it to snap on there correctly. Apply enough downward pressure and it should snap into place. Congratulations, you have just installed the heatsink and we only have one last thing to hook up, which is the power connector for your heatsink.
On most motherboards, the power connection is near the socket and it's often labeled like in the picture above. You can see that it's not too far away from the socket and it's labeled on the motherboard as well. This applies to nearly all motherboards.
Now that you have done the most difficult part of building a computer, the rest is down hill. Everything else is simple compared to the last few articles. In the next article, we will look into which RAM you need and how much you will need.
Make sure you come back once again tomorrow as I finish up this article series. We'll cover the last pieces of information you need to know to complete your computer project. Don't miss out!

Wonderful, touching poem. You have done them proud expressing your feelings about their achievement.
Good luck! Hope to see you on Sunday if I can make it.
Great use of wordplay on names Ianthe. Especially liked Lingard…as in a classic Cranberries song'Let It Lingar!'
Hi Graham – I'm really pleased to see that you're annotating your poems verse-by-verse. Did you know you can also highlight a bit of text in a verse and comment on that? Hover over this comment to see what I highlighted.
Not forgetting folk hero Robin Friday who started a now commonplace trend by kissing a policeman after scoring against Rochdale in 1975
"The policeman looked so cold and fed up standing there that I decided to cheer him up a bit," he explained.
Yes. We played footy in the street, and Peter Lorimer (not me) broke the window-pane at number twenty-eight. Kenneth Wolstenholme was particularly impressed, and Leeds meet Chelsea in the semi-final.
Great imagery Alex…
Playing in the street….grumpy neighbours..I go back to my old fifties Wharfdale Street , just off the Ifield Road sometimes Alex.
It's barely a bright tennis ball's throw from Stamford Bridge.We'd play for hours across that little street , stopping only for Remo's ice cream van. So few car back then. I remember mad scores like 53-41 .
We'd often play til it was so dark, we couldn't see that little yellow ball anymore sometimes..
The marking on the old brick wall in streets now lined with cars 24 x 7 are faint… but still there.
A touching tribute to a quaint old ground, with its compact pitch and small white gable.

LeBron James had yet to claim an NBA championship when he arrived in Miami two years ago, boldly predicting multiple title runs with Heat teammates Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade.
Now, as the NBA prepares to open its 67th season on Tuesday, "King" James is coming off a crowning achievement, having won his first NBA title with the Heat last June and then guiding the US Olympic team to London gold in August.
Now the Heat look to repeat and James, whose spectacular high-leaping skills have made him the NBA's most dynamic playmaker since Michael Jordan won six titles with Chicago in the 1990s, vows to back up his boasts and prove he is no one-hit wonder.
"I've accomplished a lot of goals but I'm still not satisfied with what I've done so far," James said.
"We can be better than we were this past season. We have the potential to be a lot better. That is scary."
The Heat have added 37-year-old guard Ray Allen, the all-time NBA leader in 3-point shots who must face his former Boston teammates when they visit for Tuesday's opener, and veteran forward Rashard Lewis to a championship roster.
"You can feel the excitement," Wade said. "You can see the difference."
James matched Jordan as the only players in history to win an NBA title, Olympic gold and be named the NBA regular-season and NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP) in the same year.
"I don't think about what the other greats have accomplished," James said. "I have to make my own name."
Across the continent, Kobe Bryant will try to match Jordan's career title total with a revamped Los Angeles Lakers' lineup that includes new big man Dwight Howard and star guard Steve Nash, both seeking their first NBA crowns.
"Dwight's defensive presence is probably the greatest I've seen in the history of the sport," Bryant said.
"Steve's a great playmaker. Steve's IQ and ability to quarterback, it's not something I can naturally do.
The Lakers and Heat must still contend with the Oklahoma City Thunder, powered by three-time NBA scoring champion Kevin Durant and star guard Russell Westbrook, although they'll be without last season's NBA Sixth Man of the Year James Harden.
Harden was traded on the eve of the season to Houston, where he'll join a team hoping Taiwanese-American star Jeremy Lin can continue to work the magic he showed last year with the Knicks.
While the Thunder's young stars are the NBA's wave of the future, San Antonio remains in the title hunt with veterans Tim Duncan, France's Tony Parker and Argentina's Manu Ginobili while the Los Angeles Clippers are on the rise with All-Stars Blake Griffin and Chris Paul and veterans Chauncey Billups and Lamar Odom.
The Celtics remain a power in the East with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce and guard Rajon Rondo while the Chicago Bulls could still threaten despite Derrick Rose still sidelined by a left knee injury suffered in last season's playoff opener.
New York boasts Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler but the Knicks will have some new cross-town competition in the Brooklyn Nets, who move from New Jersey into a new $1 billion arena and have some firepower of their own in Deron Williams and Joe Johnson.

- Tom Wright's Response to John Piper
- Does Piper Neglect the Resurrection?
I would like to conclude by sharing a great summary quote from Dr. Piper which is a fitting climax to what, at least to me, has been an interesting journey through an important book. I hope many of you will go out and buy this book, but remember, buy Pierced for Our Transgressions first! This book will stretch you, but to be stretched is sometimes a good idea!
So, what is the crux of the doctrine of justification, according to Piper?
"Our only hope for living the radical demands of the Christian life is that God is totally for us now and forever. Therefore, God has not ordained that living the Christian life should be the basis of our hope that God is for us. That basis is the death and righteousness of Christ, counted as ours through faith alone. On the cross Christ endured for us all the punishment required of us because of our sin. And in order that God, as our Father, might be completely for us and not against us forever, Christ has performed for us in his perfect obedience to God all that God required of us.
This punishment and this obedience are completed and past. They can never change. Our union with Christ and the enjoyment of these benefits is secure forever. Through faith alone, God establishes our union with Christ. This union will never fail, because in Christ, God is for us as an omnipotent Father who sustains our faith, and works all things together for our everlasting good. The one and only instrument through which God preserves our union with Christ is faith in Christ—the purely receiving act of the soul." (p. 184)

Federal Property Asset Management Reform is Key Component of President's Freedom to Manage Package
October 15, 2001
Contact: Bill Bearden (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, D. C. - As part of President Bush's Freedom to Manage agenda, officials of the U.S. General Services Administration unveiled the Federal Property Asset Management Reform package, which they say is necessary to modify existing statutes to meet current needs of Federal agencies and reflect current commercial practices for effective management of property assets.
GSA Administrator Stephen A. Perry said that this reform is another important move toward achieving President Bush's call for using modern management practices to improve government performance.
"We believe these changes to statutes created more than 50 years ago are critical to establishing a government-wide process for life cycle management of Federal real and personal property assets," said Mr. Perry. "Provisions of this property reform package will help agencies achieve their missions and goals by reducing the amount of deteriorating, functionally obsolescent, energy inefficient and underutilized space in the existing inventory of Federal buildings."
The proposal would amend the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 to allow Federal real property managers -- across the government's $260 billion inventory -- to use modern property management processes so they can make long-range property management decisions that are critical to improving government performance. Specifically, they would allow agencies to:
exchange and transfer property among themselves and private-sector entities,
sublease assets on unexpired portions of government leases,
lease certain underutilized assets to the private sector,
explore creative public-private financing mechanisms to help finance a backlog of public building maintenance needs,
provide incentives to dispose of old assets, and
streamline and enhance existing disposal processes.
One of the most effective tools, which would offer a variety of options to address the estimated $4 billion-plus cost to upgrade GSA's 1,800 owned buildings throughout the country, is the ability to enter into "public-private partnerships." GSA buildings are on average more than 50 years old, and deferred maintenance, repair and alteration work is accumulating to an unacceptable level. The property management reform package is needed to achieve this legislative reform.

Our society likes numbers and we seem to accept that numbers can be used in various ways to tell a story from any perspective. Certainly we saw a lot of numbers in the results of last week's election: number of votes cast, percentage among the candidates, percentage of citizens who voted, and on and on.
Some recent library related statistics that came to my attention are interesting:
These numbers show trends that are good for us to have in mind as we implement our strategic plan and set specific goals for the next year. Fewer books are being published by traditional publishers, more people are using the internet. With this in mind, we are expanding our digital offerings, putting more and more information on our website, posting to Facebook and Twitter, sending email newsletters to patrons.
Come visit us in one of our five buildings or online through our website.

How To Stop Robocalls
The Federal Trade Commission is offering up a sizable amount of money to the first person who can figure out how to block illegal robocalls in this country.
The offer is $50,000 – plus you get to keep ownership of your idea.
Ladies and gentlemen, the answer is so simple.
Remember that scene from Dumb & Dumber where they picked up the hitchhiker and Jim Carrey's character asks the guy, "Hey, wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?" And then he screams in his ear. If you don't remember the scene, click here.
All we need to do is set it up so whenever a robocall comes in, that scene will play back over the phone. I'm sure the "robocall folks" will wanna give up after about a dozen times of hearing that obnoxious sound. Don't you think?
…so many answers and so little time!

Delegates to Press That Aid Will Be Conditioned on Women's Rights and That Resolution 1325 Must Be Implemented to Ensure Women's Equal Participation in the Maintenance of Peace
Actor Meryl Streep to Moderate at Press Conference Detailing Afghan Women's Demands and the Global Campaign to Support Their Struggle for Human Rights and Democracy
Media Advisory
December 20, 2001
Press Conference to Be Held Thursday, December 20 at 10:00 AM
The Afghan Women Summit delegates are:
Leila Enayat-Seraj, Director of Afghan Art Project for Peace, co-founder of the Committee on the Prevention of Discriminatory Practices Against Women in the United Nations. Based in Switzerland.
Shafiqa Habibi, Former prominent broadcast journalist in Kabul and head of the Women's Radio and Television Broadcast Organization until the Taliban came to power. Based in Afghanistan.
Adeena Niazi, Former Professor at Kabul University and Founder/Director of Afghan Women's Organization in Toronto. Based in Canada.
Soraya Paikan, Formerly with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees in Mazar-e-Sharif. Former Professor of Law, University of Kabul. Fled Afghanistan seven months ago for Peshawar with five of her six daughters.
Sahar Saba, Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA). Based in Pakistan.
Sima Wali, Founder/Director of Refugee Women in Development, Member of the Rome delegation to the Bonn negotiations. Based in Washington, D.C.
The women will address the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday at 10:00 AM.
The Afghan Women's Summit was a two-day global gathering of Afghan women held in Brussels December 4-5. Over 40 grassroots Afghan women leaders, broadly representative of women in Afghanistan, took part in the Summit and issued the Brussels Proclamation. The goal of the Summit was to bring the voices of the Afghan women into the current international political discourse, ensuring that their message is heard and that women have equal say and rights in the new government. Following the Summit, this delegation of six Afghan women is carrying their message to key political decision-makers around the world.
The Summit delegates arrived in New York after post summit meetings with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Secretary of State Colin Powell and other political leaders in Washington, D.C. last week. The delegates first post-Summit meeting was on December 6 with the European Parliament in Brussels.
The Afghan Women's Summit was organized by women's rights organizations from around the world—European Women's Lobby, Equality Now, V-Day, the Center for Strategic Initiatives of Women, and The Feminist Majority, in collaboration with the Gender Advisor to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and UNIFEM.
The Brussels Proclamation is a blueprint that outlines in detail the Afghan Women's Summit's comprehensive vision for the future and specifies their immediate reconstruction needs. The Proclamation represents a historic expression of their fundamental human rights and right to full participation in their country at levels of civil society, together with a list of concrete demands for immediate implementation. The women carry the message that significant portions of any international aid should go to projects benefiting women, as well as a full restoration of women's rights as citizens and the participation of women in drafting new laws and a future constitution.
The Brussels Proclamation addresses four central components of Afghan society: education and culture, healthcare, refugees and human rights. Demands include:
- The right for women to vote and to be entitled to equal pay and equal access to health care, education and employment
- An emergency plan for reopening schools by March 2002 for both girls and boys, a new curriculum, and training of teachers
- The inclusion of Afghan women lawyers in the development of a new constitution which would include the principles of non-discrimination
- The rebuilding of hospitals and provision of vital medicines, treatments and services, including psychological counselling and mother and child healthcare
- Central inclusion of women in the Loya Jirga
- The protection of women from forced underage marriages and sexual harassment
Activists from 16 countries from around the world met in parallel sessions in Brussels to formulate support strategies for the implementation of the Brussels Proclamation. Eve Ensler, Artistic Director and Founder of V-Day, will declare on International Women's Day 2002 (March 8) that for women "Afghanistan is Everywhere" in support of the Brussels Proclamation.

Mexico: Cartel kidnapped kids, stole their organs
(NEWSER) – Police in Mexico say they've uncovered a grisly scheme to kidnap children and sell their organs. Authorities in the Western state of Michoacan revealed yesterday that they'd arrested Manuel Plancarte Gaspar, the nephew of one of the top leaders of the Knights Templar cartel, for his alleged involvement. Gaspar and his cohorts would allegedly take their young captives to rented homes with medical equipment and remove their organs,the AP reports.

Style Editor Vs. Style Editor Kmart Shop-Off!
Which editor can create two sexy, fun and wearable outfits for only $100?
-PJ Gach
The competition started innocently with just one tweet. That's all it took: a tweet. You see, I was on Twitter one day, chirping as one does when I came across a tweet from Kmart Fashion. The tweet contained a link to their holiday look book. I clicked. I swooned. The over-the-knee boots, the hats, the accessories, the sexy dresses! It all looked so hautely hawt, so I commented. Makeda Saggau-Sackey, an editor from the Glamazon Diaries then made a comment. In a few seconds the three of us; Kmart Fashion, Glamazon Diaries and I were all cooing over the collection. Then it escalated when GD said we ought to have a shop-off. That's right, which of us could create the stellar outfit?
When it comes to shopping, I have a black belt in it. So does Makeda. So I knew this was going to be a fun, friendly contest. We also have different styles and tastes, so our respective styles would also be a cool way to showcase the versatility of the clothing.
Ms.Glamazon Diaries AKA Makeda is a glamourpus. She favors classic well tailored pieces that show of her curves. My style, well I guess if you had to label it, would be called, "Rushed." I toss on vintage, luxe and budget labels all at once, create something I think is cool (others may give me a double-take) and I'm out the door.
It was a dark, rainy day when we met up at the gigantic Kmart on 34th Street in Manhattan. Our duel time was set for 3 pm, but sneaky me got there early so I could scope it out. Wrong move! Tops, skirts and bags kept leaping off the racks screaming, "Buy me! Buy me!" I was strong and resisted (this doesn't mean that I'm not going back, I am, I must adopt those poor items and give them a good home).
When we met up, it wasn't back to back counting 20 paces. It was more like, "OMG! Did you see this top?" "Nooooo, check out this dress!" And "Sofia, you're killing me, I'm gonna drop my paycheck in this store for all of your clothes." Yeah, you could say we were just a tad over-excited.
Sarah R, our lovely guide to the wonders of Kmart Fashion, Makeda and I discussed what type of shop-off we should do. I suggested that we take the $100 gift card and create two outfits for the holidays: one for going to a party and a casual outfit for lunch with friends. Everyone agreed, shopping carts were grabbed and the race was on!
Makeda made her way over to shoeland, while I got sidetracked by faux fur vests and hats. While I looked all around the store, admiring everything, I kept going back to Sofia Vergara's vee-necked tops, Selena Gomez Dream Out Loud collection and the Shapesational line of dresses and separates. Shapesational has shapewear built into their things (Hallaloo!).
I finally hit the dressing room. The above photo of me is in the dressing room (trying on clothing is exhausting!).
I went through a bazillion tops, a bazillion dresses and skirts. It's not that I didn't like them, I did-and yes, sigh, I am going back to get them-it's just that I was on a mission! A mission to make two outfits that I would wear again and again.
After a lot of trying on things, I came up with two outfits…
The holiday outfit consisted of Sofia by Sofia Vergara blue surplice top ($16.09, kmart.com), Sofia by Sofia Vergara side ruffle kirt: ($10.49. kmart.com) , Sofia by Sofia Vergara Floraine lace shooties ($26.49, kmart.com) and Sofia by Sofia Vergara gold and diamond necklace ($14.99, kmart.com).
To hang out with friends, whether for drinks, shopping, or anything else, I decided to go "Hollywood Boho," so I grabbed a newsboy cap by Bongo ($4.99, kmart.com), wore the same Sofia Vergara blue top and paired it with sparkly dark gray Selena Gomez jeans Dream Out Loud skinny jeans ($16.80, kmart.com), they have sparkly rhinestones on the back pocket flaps. For an accessory, I chose a cool vintage looking silver and rhinestone Bongo key pendant ($9.99, kmart.com) and wore the same shooties by Sofia.
The whopping total for all seven items was $99.84. Yup, under a $100! Later that night I went out to dinner with a really good friend who covers all of the high fashion shows in Europe. When I told him that everything I had on, from the cap to the shoes were from Kmart, he choked on his water.
These items have become part of my wardrobe foundation. I'm constantly pairing the jeans with different tops an shoes. The blouse and skirt by Sofia make me feel sophisticated and sexy. And the two necklaces—heck they're worn with everything!
To see what Makeda chose, check out her post.
As for me, doing the shop-off has now opened a dangerous new world for me. I'm highly impressed with Kmart's quality in clothing and accessories. While I and my wallet are thrilled with the prices, my closet is now not speaking to me anymore.
Tell us: what do you think of the haul I captured at Kmart?

Kyle Cody Tabbed Cape Cod Pitcher of the Week
July 2, 2014
LEXINGTON, Ky. -- After working seven shutout innings on Saturday, Kentucky sophomore right-hander Kyle Cody has been named Coca Cola's Cape Cod League Pitcher of the Week, it was announced.
A native of Chippewa Falls, Wis., Cody worked seven-shutout, three-hit innings in a win over Falmouth on Saturday. The 6-foot-7, 240-pounder allowed just one walk and struck out six in his third start of the year. Cody has a 1-2 record and a 3.17 ERA in 11.1 innings in the Cape Cod League, striking out 13.
Cody was named Coca Cola's Pitcher of the Week in the CCBL, with Georgia Tech first baseman/outfielder AJ Murray named CCBL Player of the Week.
Jason Inghram (William & Mary) and Ian Happ (Cincinnati) were named CCBL Players of the Week to open the summer, with Johnathan Frebis (Middle Tennessee State) and Donnie Dewess (North Florida) earning the honors in week two.
Cody finished 2014 with a 4-0 record and a 2.84 ERA in 18 games and six starts, despite missing 21 days due to injury in the middle of the season. UK's Sunday starter to open the first three weeks, Cody then missed three weeks, before returning the mound in a relief role. He finished with five saves, tossing 38 innings, walking just 13 and striking out 20.
The seventh-best sophomore in the preseason by Baseball America, Cody has appeared in 33 games with 16 starts, owning a 7-3 record and a 4.05 ERA, tossing 95.2 innings, walking 33 and striking out 67. As a freshman, Cody worked his way into the SEC rotation late in the year, finishing with a 3-3 record and a 4.84 ERA in 57.2 innings, striking out 47.
Cody is joined in the Cape Cod League by sophomore outfielder Kyle Barrett and sophomore southpaw Ryne Combs. Barrett ranks eighth in the CCBL in average, while playing with the Harwich Mariners, batting .327 (18-for-55) with a double, two RBI and five steals.
A native of Douglasville, Ga., Barrett ran up an eight-game hitting streak from June 17 to June 27, also recording a 4-for-4 game with a steal on June 14. In his two-year UK career, Barrett has hit .300 (90-for-300) in 92 games, with 10 doubles, one triple, one homer, 33 RBI and 14 steals.
Combs has appeared in six games in relief for Orleans, owning a 1-0 record in nine games, saving one game, walking 10 and striking out seven. Combs opened his summer with two shutout innings on June 12, before getting a two-inning win on June 18 and a three-inning save on June 21, not allowing a run in the two outings. Combs has appeared in 32 games with six midweek starts in his two-year UK career, owning a 1-2 record and a 4.72 ERA in 55.1 innings.

ESPN's Mortensen says Tebow joining Jags a 'virtual certainty'
Published: Saturday, December 22, 2012 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 24, 2012 at 8:22 a.m.
A source with the Jacksonville Jaguars calls it a "high likelihood" that Tim Tebow will return to his hometown to compete for the quarterback job next season, according to ESPN National Football League analyst Chris Mortensen.
In a report published by ESPN.com Saturday night, Mortensen's league sources called it a "virtual certainty" Tebow will play for the Jaguars next season.
Tebow was traded to the New York Jets last offseason after leading the Denver Broncos to the AFC playoffs. He was expected to play a significant role with the Jets as a wildcat formation specialist behind starter Mark Sanchez, but those opportunities were few and far between and then Tebow was bypassed for third-string quarterback Greg McElroy when Sanchez was benched earlier this week.
According to Mortensen, the Jets are expected to honor Tebow's request to be released this coming offseason.

Donkey Danger In The Inland Empire
Drivers in the Inland Empire are being warned of donkey danger.
When a guy on a motorcycle ran into a burro north of Moreno Valley Monday night, it brought up a unique issue in the area -- donkeys are not legally required to be tethered.
Burros wander the area since being introduced about 60 years ago, no one owns or oversees them, and they're spread out from Riverside into San Bernardino Counties.
There are about four herds of 150 to 300 each, which is only an estimate since authorities haven't officially counted them. And now with more people in the area, the animals -- and drivers -- are at risk.

Ubuntu talk:Edgy
Page edits / updates
After you make any changes in this page you should purge the cache. Just click on this link http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy?action=purge
- Updated Automatix2 and Easyubuntu. Easyubuntu works but with an awkward solution, renaming the Dapper package lists; keep an eye for the next version to show up soon, in order to change it back to the normal way. Might also think the package installation as an alternative. --Radiobuzzer 04:28, 24 October 2006 (EEST)
- Flash mozilla plugin (non-free) can't be found in repositories for me (64bit). If it is not available for 32bit either, then we should introduce people to Gnash ( sudo apt-get install libflash-mozplugin )--Radiobuzzer 21:16, 25 October 2006 (EEST)
- Updated Democracy TV to the latest package version--Radiobuzzer 21:16, 25 October 2006 (EEST)
Problem with installing Internet explorer + Flash 9
This is actually a BIG problem. If you run the final command of Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Internet_Explorer_.2B_Flash_9 as root, it in fact does NOT create global symlinks, but instead outputs an error and destroys your x.org configuration (forcing me to completely reinstall ubuntu (I don't know what was wrong)). Until we can ascertain what the problem is, I say we place a warning.
While I'm doing it, I'm updating the instructions to reflect the official instructions at [1]
--DoubleRing 04:51, 31 October 2006 (EET)
Added MySQL Database backup using AutoMySQLBackup
I added the MySQL Database backup using AutoMySQLBackup section under http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#Database_Server. Maybe this belongs under Tips and Tricks?
--Mike 02:45, 1 November 2006 (EET)
Added MIDI sound server, NoteEdit, and more
Added setting up the Timidity++ midi sound server here [2] and also NoteEdit here [3]
Added to tips and tricks how to force GDM to system beep when login screen ready here [4]
Updated the above mentioned IEs4Linux entry and accredited them (put "IEs4Linux" in parentheses). --DoubleRing 04:39, 1 November 2006 (EET)
How to apt-get the easy way (Synaptic)
The entry for how to apt-get the easy way (Synaptic) does not make any sense. I am guessing that this is because it was written for ubuntu 5 but I am using ubuntu 6.10. Is there any one that could update this section? --Ben 00:15, 16 November 2006 (EET)
Santiago Roza is proposing following things, I guess we could implement them in Edgy guide, couldn't we?
Hello; my name is Santiago Roza, and I'm a freelance journalist for USERS magazine in Argentina, specialized in Free / Open Source Software.
I'm a big fan of Ubuntu, and I think Ubuntu Guide is a great site. So here are my suggestions for making the guide even better:
- d4x is old, unmaintained, and not GNOME-coherent... Gwget would be a more logical choice.
- Nvu is good but unmaintained; KompoZer is the community-maintained fork with bugfixes.
- Brasero/Bonfire could be a better choice (more capable, and more frequently updated) for CD burning than GnomeBaker.
- some of the programs you recommend already come in Ubuntu: GParted and X-Chat for example.
- Abiword and Gnumeric could also be listed as "lightweight word processor / spreadsheet".
- Avidemux could be listed as "video converting / transcoding tool".
- SoundConverter could be listed as "audio converting / transcoding tool".
- Exaile could be listed as "GNOME-based advanced audio player similar to amaroK".
Well that's all for now. Hope you like the suggestions, greetings and keep it up!
Santiago Roza (santiagoroza_at_gmail_dot_com) Krampo 15:11, 1 December 2006 (EET)
I've seen that you're suggesting the installation of Timidity++ as a server for MIDI playback, but this is not only relatively complex, but not necessary.
I have perfect MIDI playback in my Ubuntu box, with just Timidity++ installed (not as a server), and the performance tweaks recommended in this site (which reduced my CPU usage by 10x or so): http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#timidity
Santiago Roza (santiagoroza_at_gmail_dot_com) Krampo 11:31, 13 December 2006 (EET)
This list was (imo) getting very unorganized. Today I've attempted to clean up and rearrange somethings. I haven't had time to apply it to the entire guide yet.
-xabbott 2:52pm (est), 21 December 2006
New Additions
Just added a few additions including:
- Personal Apt Repository

- Setting up Music Player Server / Network Jukebox (MPD: Music Player Daemon)
- Port Forwarding via SSH
- Fixing JavaVM crash when using certain applications (libfontmanager)

What about Kubuntu?
I was thinking to add a couple of kubuntu-specific items, like using kprinter in Firefox. Is this a good place for it?
-Anonymous Poster
I agree. This guide is heavily Ubuntu-centric and needs Kubuntu information added as well. Perhaps since this is a Wiki-based site, one should take this task upon oneself?

Installing Ubuntu
I don`t know if this is the best place for this, but I would like some help in installing Ubuntu. I have downloaded Ubuntu 6.10, burn it onto a CD, run it, but I just can`t get over the install... Prior to this, I had partitioned my 80giga harddrive (on which I also have WinXP), and made two new physical partitions, a 12giga in "linux ext3" type, and a 1,6giga "linux swap". I have positioned them before C:, but as they are not NTFS, they did not affect the WinXP. Returning to the installation of Ubuntu. When I`m asked in the install window if I want to manually set which partitions Ubuntu to use, I clicked yes (if I would of not, than the install would overwrite my C: harddrive, hence my WinXP). And here comes the problem: I come across a window were I`m asked to set the mounting points or something like that, for the "/" (root), "/home" "/div" and two others as such, plus my swap. While for the swap I`ve set the swap partion, for the root ("/") I`ve set the "linux ext3" partion. I left the others unset, and I click the next button. An error image appears, which says something like root not set....", basically asking me to set partitions for the rest of that "/..." stuff. When I try to set for those, the same "linux ext3" partition, another error says that I can`t share the same partion. The only choice I have is to select (and hence formated) my NTFS partitions, on which I have Windows installed. What should I do? Partition my "linux ext3" into four smaller partitions, one for each of the "/..." stuff? Why is that? Can`t I just select to have Ubuntu installed on only one partition, and have it autamatically create a tree structure for each of the "/..." elements? Dery 22:45, 27 February 2007 (EET)
- Problem solved. Dery 15:47, 28 February 2007 (EET)
How to uninstall
I've started to notice "How to uninstall...." sub categories popping up. Are these necessary? Most of them are simple sudo aptutide remove package. I'm just worried about unnecessary clutter.

Captain Phillips
A gripping thriller based on the real life Somali pirate attack on a U.S. cargo ship.
2-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks should be up fro an Academy award again this year for his latest at-sea mishap (he was nominated for "Castaway" in 2001). In "Castaway", his companion was a basketball. This time, most of his interaction is with his Somali counterpart- the captain of a pirate ship that commandeers his cargo ship in 2009.
Director Paul Greengrass is just about the best when it comes to helming thrillers based on real-life incidents. His September 11th story "United Flight 93" was up for 2 Oscars- it was my pick for best picture simply because it was such a seat-gripper, even with everyone knowing the ending. The same can be said to for the fast-paced "Captain Phillips". Especially with the hand-held jerky camera action.
What makes this film so unique is the story is also told from the perspective of the Somali pirates , played by first time Somali actors. Their story alone is tragic.
This one runs over 2 hours but hits like a punch. Tom Hanks just gets better and better. His final scene is astounding.

These are the lady's Mary Jane slip-ons that help to combat the painful effects of plantar fasciitis. A removable, stabilizing orthotic footbed provides arch support while aligning the feet into a natural position for those who over-pronate--when the heel bone angles inward--a determining factor in the development of plantar fasciitis. With uppers made from breathable mesh and polyurethane nubuck, its stitched collar secures a foot's instep with a hook-and-loop fastener. The outsoles are made from resilient TPR, molded with a slip-resistant pattern. The orthotic footbeds provide optimal comfort and support when the slip-ons are worn for at least a few hours per day over the course of two weeks. Khaki. Whole sizes 6-11. Medium width. (1 1/2 lbs.)

I would like to see dressier styles developed so one could wear them and experience the same comfort when going out to more formal events.
Very Happy
By TheSazzyP
from Madison, WI
The shoes are great. Very comfy. I especially like the fact that I can remove the sole and replace it with my personal ones made by my podiatrist.
Good support
By Mimi
from Princeton
Provides good support. Delivered on time.
Lacks support
By Dog Handler
from Fredericksburg, VA
Was disappointed in this shoe. Doesn't provide the support or cushioning needed when dealing with foot issues. Might work better with orthotic. Less attractive than pictured.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Not a good choice for high arches
By Notsohappyfeet
from San Antonio, Texas
I have high arches and have only found relief in shoes that provide more heel support. Although these have a nice arch support orthotic, the overly flat, relatively unpadded heel support caused my foot to ache terribly.
Good travel shoe
By International traveller
from Yellow Springs OH
I have plantar faciitis so I bought this shoe for travel. I have worn them all day with no pain. They can be worn with or without socks and are easy to slip on and off at the security checks. The closed toe is good for those airplanes that blow cold air on the feet. They look great with jeans and khakis.
returned, did not fit my foot.
By none
from none
Strap is too snug. Rubs my arch wrong.
Way too wide
By Susan
from Burke, VA
I had to return immediately because the shoes were WAY too wide for my narrow foot.

Wingate sweeps Saturday twinbillMarch 20, 2010
Tornados held scoreless in both games
Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Tornados (5-16, 1-14) dropped both games of a Saturday doubleheader against Wingate (15-9, 11-4) at Gil Coan Field. Bulldogs starters Chris Nelson and Mark Rape each pitched complete game shutouts to lead Wingate to a three game series sweep. BC fell 2-0 in nine innings in game one and 9-0 in seven innings in game two,
Tornado starter Shane Galloway pitched well in game one despite taking the loss, going six and a third innings and allowing one earned run on six hits while striking out four. Galloway is now 1-1 this year. He set down the Bulldogs in order in the first, fourth, and fifth innings.
Nelson (3-0) went the distance, scattering three hits and striking out seven. He had five separate one-two-three innings and retired nine straight Tornado hitters from the fifth inning through the seventh.
Both teams were scoreless through the first six innings. Wingate designated hitter Tres Ramirez drew a full-count walk to leadoff the seventh. Center fielder Nick Siega-Riz moved Ramirez to second with a sacrifice bunt. Tripp Faulk entered the game to pinch run for Ramirez and Josh Sugg pinch hit for Taylor Honeycutt, singling the first pitch he saw to left field to drive in Faulk. Jacob Koontz replaced Galloway and retired the Bulldogs with no further damage.
Brevard threatened in the bottom of the inning, as Kramer Clark hit a one out single to right and later advanced to second on a wild pitch. Matthew Pruitt grounded out to the catcher with two outs to end the inning. Along with Clark, Stephen Mullis and M.A. Dozier got hits for Brevard in game one.
Chris Vazquez doubled with two outs in the ninth and was brought home on a Logan Isaacs RBI single up the middle to give Wingate an insurance run.
Brevard went down in order to end the game.
Game two turned on a six run Bulldog second inning. Wingate scored three unearned runs in the frame. Siega-Riz contributed an RBI single. Honeycutt and Isaacs added RBI doubles. The six run outburst chased Brevard starter Jacob White (0-5) from the game after an inning and two thirds.
Ramirez was three for four with a run scored and one driven in. Third baseman Jacob Karr went one for three with a run scored while driving in two. Honeycutt added two RBI and scored a run in four at bats.
Bulldog starter Mark Rape (1-1) picked up where Nelson left off in game one, pitching all seven innings, allowing just three hits while striking out seven and walking three.
Wingate scored single runs in each of the third, fourth, and seventh innings.
Darren Olivo, Kellen Moman, and Matthew Ennis notched hits for Brevard.
Wingate returns to the diamond Tuesday March 23 at home against West Virginia State at 7 p.m. The Tornados welcome Erskine to Gil Coan Field Tuesday at 2 p.m.

Margus Hunt DL SMU
Margus Hunt DL SMU
Last edited by Reds Fanatic; 04-26-2013 at 08:06 PM.
Blocked 17 kicks in college? Crazy. Bengals love those tall DL.
How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
Hope this is the future replacement for Geathers and not Dunlap...
Bengals website indicates maybe Johnson since he's just on the one year deal. I just hope he sees more than just special teams action for as high as he was drafted. Not huge on the fact that he's 26, but he could be a freak on the line.
How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
Zimmer says Hunt runs like a deer and he and the coaching staff will point him in the right direction. Hunt came to SMU for track and field however the track program was eliminated and he ended up playing football. Nice pick and he seems like a quick learner.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
They have the luxury of bringing him along slowly. He was a beast in SMU's bowl game.
How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
So who starts at the other safety spot?
Bengals on the clock for their 3rd round pick
Awesome draft so far, in my opinion. Love the Bernard pick. Dude is a serious home run threat every time he touches the ball.
Hoping for one of my three South Carolina guys...
Ace Sanders- Small but agile WR with good hands. Excellent return man, had no dropped passes in 2012. An ideal slot option.
Marcus Lattimore- Don't think I need to introduce him, and though he might not be the best fit, he's got a heck of a lot more upside than Green-Ellis. Complete bruiser of a running back, would have been a high first rounder if not for a horrific injury that he's still recovering from. Could be a star if he gets healthy.
Devonte Holloman- Predicted to go in the 3rd round as an OLB. Great instincts, played in the "spur" as a safety/linebacker hybrid.

You know, because there is nothing like arranging celebrity boxing matches between barely relevant celebrities to make a kid invite you to their school career day. "My dad finds losers who were famous for 30 seconds and gets them to fight." I do think it was a bad idea to promote Zimmerman like this. You are basically celebrating a guy who murdered someone. That being said I was hoping he would be put in the ring against someone who would pummel him for three rounds. The guy abuses women and kills people and gets away with it. I don't want him to profit off it which he would have done but I would like to see him get the snot beat out of him so it is a conundrum. It is also way too early to be using that word. This is the same promoter who begged Casey Anthony to come fight and as far as I know still has an offer out to her so it is not like he hates all murderers.
