Make sure to check out our Giveaway for a chance to win our Steam Box build.
The Steam Box is now a tangible possibility. Though no release date or final design has been released, Xi3 touted its Piston reference platform at CES while other hardware was examined behind closed doors. Meanwhile, Valve is preparing Steam for an eventual hardware release with the new Big Picture interface and Linux support. All of the pieces are coming into place.
Gamers itching for an innovative, open platform can hardly wait for release, yet details remain vague. Valve might launch tomorrow, next month, or next year. Details on specifications, price and capability remain unknown.
We do know that Valve's console will be built with PC hardware, use Steam to access games, and probably run Linux. So why wait? You can build your own Steam Box today for less than $500. Here's how.
The target build
We're not the first to publish a do-it-yourself Steam Box guide. Others have already explored the idea in some depth. Yet, we have a problem with what we've seen so far: Price.
Gaming PCs have existed for years; putting one together is hardly a new idea. What makes the Steam Box original is its combination of size, price, and capability. The Steam Box is both a PC and a console competitor, and that means it can't be too expensive. That's why we've limited our build to a $500 budget.
Don't think we're sacrificing grunt, however. This system is capable of an acceptable framerate in any modern title at 1080p and medium detail – and most games will be playable at high or maximum detail. This inexpensive PC can dish out serious eye-candy.
There is one notable sacrifice that had to be made to keep within our budget: Windows. We were forced to drop it for the same reason that Valve launched Steam for Linux. Windows is expensive. Even an OEM copy of Windows 8 sells for $99, which is 20 percent of this build's total budget. There's no reason you can't install Windows on our build – but we went with Ubuntu instead.
The components
Out of the endless number of combinations we could have chosen, here's the components we settled on.
- Processor: Intel Core i3-3220 ($130)
- Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H61M-HD2 Micro-ATX ($55)
- RAM: Kingston Value 4GB DDR3 1066 Low-Profile ($30)
- Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7770 1GHz Edition ($115)
- Hard Drive: Western Digital Blue 500GB 7200RPM ($60)
- Power Supply: Antec NEO ECO 400-Watt ($40)
- Case: Antec New Solution VSK-3000 ($30)
- Cooler: Cooler Master GeminII M4 ($30)
Approximate Total Cost: $490
The Intel Core i3-3220 dual-core and AMD Radeon graphics card provide the best overall performance within the budget. AMD's Fusion processors, which include Radeon graphics as part of the package, simply aren't quick enough to handle many games at 1080p.
A good portion of our cash was spent on a respectable power supply and cooler. The processor does ship with its own cooler, and many enclosures can be had with a power supply, but we upgraded both to ensure this build is reliable, cool, and quiet. If you follow our build, you'll find that the resulting system is quieter than an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.
We decided on Micro-ATX as the form factor for our build. This means the system is small, though not slim enough to fit in most media cabinets. Going smaller would have forced us to increase our budget or settle for lower performance. Both trade-offs seemed a poor choice.
This build doesn't include an optical drive. We're making a Steam Box, and Steam is all about digital distribution. We think most gamers will never need to insert a disc, and cutting out the optical drive frees up $25 that can be spent elsewhere.
Some users might want a smaller or larger case, have a preference for different hardware vendors, or want to go with an AMD processor instead of Intel. Customization is fine, but don't stray too far. We put this build together to offer maximum performance at minimum price. Different hardware could make your Steam Box slower or more expensive.
Building your Steam Box
You'll want to grab the following tools before you start building your system.
- Small Phillips-head screwdriver
- Flashlight
- Tweezers
- Ziploc bag (to keep track of screws you've removed)
Besides these three items, you should also find a large, well-lit surface to work on. You'll need room to place components you haven't installed yet as well as room to place the PC itself.
Settled and equipped? Good. Let's begin. (Don't want to build your own? Check out the bottom of the post for info on how to win this very Steam Box!)
Step 1: Open the case
The Antec VSK-3000 can be opened from either side, but you'll want to open the left panel side panel. At the back of the enclosure you'll find two screws attaching the panel. Remove them and put them in the Ziploc bag to make sure they're not lost; then remove the panel by pulling gently towards the rear of the case. There's an indentation in the panel that will help you find a grip.
Once the case is open, place it somewhere out of the way – it's not needed again until several steps later. Place the side panel on the table you're working on. It will act as a working surface while you install components on the motherboard.
Step 2: Install the RAM
Remove the motherboard from its box and various wrappings (it will usually be enclosed by at least one anti-static bag). Place the motherboard flat on the case panel.
Take the RAM out of its packaging and install it by lining it up with the RAM slots on the motherboard located to the right of the processor socket. RAM can only be installed in one direction because of the notch in the DIMM, so make sure that you've properly lined up the RAM with the slot.
Once the RAM is in place and properly aligned, apply moderate pressure to each end until the tabs on both sides of the socket lock in place over each end.
Repeat for the second stick of memory.
Step 3: Install the processor
Motherboards ship from the factory with a plastic guard in the processor socket. Remove the guard by pressing outwards on the metal bar that is attached to the socket. This un-latches it, letting you flip up the metal guard and remove the protector. The pins in the socket will now be visible.
Un-package the processor and take a close look at it. You'll notice that it has a notch on opposite sides. These must be aligned with the notches on the motherboard socket. Once you've lined them up, simply drop the processor into place. The borders of the processor will be flush with the surrounding socket.
All you need to do now is secure the socket. Push down on the metal latch so that it's back in its original position. This will require some effort, so don't be afraid if the latch seems reluctant to close.
Step 4: Install the cooler
This may be the most challenging portion of the installation. Most people will need twenty to thirty minutes to complete this step.
Start by removing all of the cooler components and identifying those needed to install the cooler on an LGA 1155 motherboard (which is in our Steam Box). The cooler's instruction guide can help you with this. You should end up with two silver retention brackets, a large metal backplate, four small screws, and four washers.
Now find the thermal solution. This is a grey jelly contained in a small plastic syringe. Uncap it and then place a small blot about the size of a pencil eraser in the middle of the processor. This thermal solution will help conduct heat between the processor and the cooler.
Attach the retention brackets to the cooler itself using the small screws supplied and then place the cooler on top of the processor. Line up the screws built into the retention brackets with the four holes in the motherboard that surround the processor. You'll notice the screws don't line up perfectly with the holes – that's to be expected.
Now turn the motherboard, with cooler attached, upside-down so that the motherboard is actually resting on the cooler. Place the backplate around the back of the processor socket and line up its arms with the holes.
Gently prod the retention bracket screws until all four are through the mounting holes in the motherboard. Now place a washer on one of the bracket's screws and gently tighten it. Do this again for the screw diagonally opposite to the first, then attach the final two washers in any order you choose.
Use the hex-head tool bundled with the cooler to gradually tighten each washer in a clockwise motion with your Phillips screwdriver. You'll eventually hear a small metallic click as you tighten the washers. This means they're as tight as they will go – the washer will still move, but they won't become any tighter.
That's the hard part. All you have to do now is turn the motherboard over again so that it lays flat and attach the cooler's fan to the motherboard. You will find this connector between the processor socket and the PCIe slot.
Step 5: Install the power supply
Now put the case's side panel and motherboard aside for a moment and grab the case again. At the rear of the case, along the top, you'll see a large cut-out surrounded by four screw holes. This is where the power supply goes.
Install is simple. Just align the screw holes in the power supply with the ones in the back of the case. Because the pattern of screws is not perfectly rectangular, it is, once again, impossible to install the power supply in the wrong direction.
Step 6: Install the hard drive
You'll need to remove the right side case panel to install the hard drive. This is done in the same way you removed the previous panel. Remove the two screws holding the panel in place, then slide it gently back to detach it.
Place the hard drive in the hard drive bay, which is located at the front of the case below the larger optical drive bays. Insert the hard drive so that its label is facing upwards and the power and data connectors are facing the rear of the case. Then, align the screw holes on each side of the hard drive with those in the bay.
Use two screws on the left and right sides to secure the hard drive. Tighten these as much as possible. A loose screw can cause annoying vibrations when the hard drive is active.
Step 7: Install the motherboard
Start with the port panel. This is the small piece of thin metal with cut-outs for the motherboard's ports. It should be aligned so the three audio-out ports are at the bottom of the case. Installation is just a matter of snapping it in. However, because the case in this build is inexpensive, you may need to firmly hold the metal surrounding the port panel while snapping it into place.
You must attach the stand-offs before installing the motherboard. Stand-offs are small screws with a large six-sided head that have another screw hole drilled in the top. These stand-offs keep the motherboard from directly touching the case, which could short out the motherboard.
There's already one stand-off attached to the case. Use this as your starting point. Place the motherboard in the case so that the hole in the upper left-hand corner of the motherboard aligns with this existing stand-off. Through the other holes in the motherboard, you will be able to see where the additional stand-offs need to be attached.
Remove the motherboard, attach the stand-offs, then place the motherboard back in the case and align the holes along the edges of the motherboard with the stand-offs. Also, align the ports with the cut-outs in the port panel. Use the screws provided with the case to attach the motherboard to the stand-offs.
Step 8: Make motherboard connections
There are several components and ports that should now be connected to the motherboard.
Let's start with the fan. The case has one fan, mounted at the rear, which must be powered by a three-pin or four-pin connector. You will find this connector at the bottom of the motherboard labeled as SYS_FAN.
Next, locate the USB and HD_Audio cable at the front of the case. These will make the front-facing USB and audio ports functional. Plug the USB cable into F_USB1 and plug the HD_Audio cable into F_AUDIO. Both cables can only be connected in one orientation because of dead pins in their layout.
Now, run the SATA cable, which was bundled in the motherboard's box, from SATA2 0 to the SATA data connection on your hard drive. Again, the cable can only connect in one orientation.
Last up are the front panel switches and lights. Grab the motherboard's manual and turn to page 17, which is where you'll find a diagram of the F_PANEL connectors. When you examine the cables in the case you will see that each has an arrow pointing to one particular pin. This is the positive or "+" pin. With that in mind, install the power, reset, and LED light connectors according to the diagram and labeling on the motherboard.
Step 9: Install the video card
Before installing the video card on the motherboard, you must free up space on the case's rear panel. To do this, remove the screws holding the expansion slot bracket in place, then remove the third screw that holds the top expansion slot panel is place. You'll also need to remove the expansion slot panel below it, but this one is not held by a screw – instead, it's a metal cut-out that can be pushed away with your finger.
With the back panel free, install the video card by lining it up with the PCIe slot and pressingly gently until it snaps into place. The rear of the video card, which contains the video-out ports, should align with the expansion slot panels you just removed from the case.
Secure the video card by attaching it to the rear of the case with screws and then re-installing the expansion slot bracket you removed at the beginning of this step.
Step 10: Connect the power supply
With all the hardware installed, there's just one task to finish. You must connect the power supply to the components in the PC.
Start with the motherboard. There are two power connections: a square four-pin connector below the upper-left corner of the motherboard connectors, and a long, rectangular 20-pin connector beside the RAM. Both connectors are cut so they can be installed in only one orientation, and the 20-pin connector is clear and simple. Just plug it in – done!
The four-pin connector is in a tight spot, however, so installing it can be awkward. If you find you can't install it, use a pair of tweezers or enlist the help of someone with smaller hands then yourself. As a final alternative, you can remove the power supply from its mount, make the connection, and then re-install the supply.
You'll need to plug the six-pin PCIe connector into the video card and one of the long, thin SATA connectors into the hard drive. Again, both can only be installed in one orientation. Once you've made these connections, stuff the mess of leftover cords into the optical drive bay. This will keep them from interfering with the case's airflow.
Turn it on
Congratulations! Your Steam Box is built and ready for its maiden voyage. Before you re-install the case panels, though, you should make sure it boots. Plug it into a power outlet, turn the power supply on, and then press the power button on the front of the case. You should see the case lights turn on and hear the fans activate.
Having problems? If so, here's a checklist of potential issues:
- Firmly attach all power connectors.
- Check the front panel connections (particularly the power button) to ensure they're properly installed.
- Make sure that all required motherboard stand-offs were installed.
- Verify that the video card and RAM are properly seated.
Turn your Steam Box back off and re-install the case panels. You can attach it to a monitor and other peripherals. It's time to install Ubuntu.
Installing Ubuntu
For our build we're using Ubuntu 12.10. This version of Linux is popular, easy to install, and readily supports most hardware.
Because there is no optical drive in this build, you will need to install Ubuntu from USB. To do this, download the latest version of Ubuntu Desktop and also download the Universal USB Installer tool. After both downloads have finished, install Universal USB Installer and open it.
Select Ubuntu 12.10 as your distribution, find the Ubuntu .iso file on your PC, and then select a USB flash drive currently connected to your computer. Make sure it's empty, as this process will delete all contents on the USB drive. Then click Create.
Once the process has finished, remove the flash drive from your PC and connect it to the Steam Box. Turn the Steam Box on and wait. The drive will automatically be detected and Ubuntu's installer will load. Follow the installation wizard's steps.
After the Ubuntu installer has finished, there's just one more step. Open Firefox on your Steam Box and search Google for "AMD Radeon Linux Drivers." Look for the page containing AMD's Proprietary Catalyst drivers for Linux x86 and download the latest beta driver from that site.
When the driver has finished downloading, find the file, right-click it, and open its properties. Navigate to the Permissions tab in the following menu. Near the bottom of this tab, you'll see a checkbox next to "Allow executing file as program." Check that box and click close.
Now you can start the driver installation by double-clicking on the driver program. Just follow the steps of the wizard and then reboot the Steam Box.
And that's it. You can now run Steam in Big Picture mode on this PC and enjoy any of the titles that are currently compatible with Linux on Steam.
What about Windows?
Valve seems to be committed to Linux and its promotion as a gaming platform, yet there's no denying that the current library is a bit thin. Only a fraction of the many great games Steam sells are currently compatible with Linux, and – by extension – the Steam Box.
You may decide you want to run Windows instead. An OEM version of Windows 8 will set you back $100 online – a fair chunk of additional cash, which is money you don't need to spend.
Microsoft's stance towards registration of Windows 7 is forgiving. The product key never has to be entered. Ever. Not putting in a product key will eventually prompt Windows to warn you that your software may be counterfeit, which is annoying, and the PC's desktop wallpaper will be disabled. But that's about it. You'll even continue to receive Windows updates.
None of these problems are troublesome for a Steam Box. You're not even going to be using the Windows desktop, so running an un-activated version of Windows is not a bad choice.
Recommended peripherals
Now that you have your Steam Box ready, you can connect it to your HDTV or a monitor and go wild. Both video and audio can be handled through the video card's HDMI port, so the computer plays well with receivers.
The only remaining issue is control. Keyboard and mouse doesn't really work on the couch, so you'll need a gamepad. You might also want a wireless keyboard. Here are a few recommendations.
Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller for Windows
When the 360 was released, Microsoft made a small yet important decision. Drivers for the 360's controller were bundled into Windows. Ever since then it has been widely regarded as the best gamepad for PCs both because of its excellent design and the out-of-the-box support games provide it. Almost every game that has been released for Xbox 360 and ported to the PC will work flawlessly.
Linux has drivers for this gamepad, too. You can find the relevant information on the Ubuntu website.
Logitech F710
While we prefer the 360 controller, not everyone will like it. The only decent alternative on the market, in our opinion, is the Logitech F710. This wireless USB gamepad is set up similar to the PlayStation 3's controller but has a chunkier, more rounded design. Linux is not officially supported, but Ubuntu's default gamepad drivers are compatible.
VisionTek CandyBoard
Your Steam Box theoretically doesn't need to leave Big Picture mode once you've activated it, but most users will need to occasionally update drivers or software. Also, the Steam Box is a fully capable PC – so why not use it for home theater content, too?
That's where the CandyBoard comes in. This small, wireless keyboard also features a touchpad in the center, making it the only peripheral you'll ever need for media use. The keyboard works with both Windows and Linux.
Don't want to build it? Win it!
While we've tried to make this build as simple as possible, there's no doubt it can be complex. Putting together a computer is never an easy task. A system as simple and inexpensive as this is a good choice for cutting your teeth, but if you're still feeling timid, don't fret. There's still a chance of owning it.
We're giving away the Steam Box we built to a lucky Digital Trends reader. Enter here!

Patty Andrews of Andrews Sisters dead at 94
Published 12:00 am Thursday, January 31, 2013
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Patty Andrews, the last surviving member of the singing Andrews Sisters trio whose hits such as the rollicking "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B" and the poignant "I Can Dream, Can't I?" captured the home-front spirit of World War II, died Wednesday. She was 94.
Andrews died of natural causes at her home in the Los Angeles suburb of Northridge, said family spokesman Alan Eichler in a statement.
Patty was the Andrews in the middle, the lead singer and chief clown, whose raucous jitterbugging delighted American servicemen abroad and audiences at home.
She could also deliver sentimental ballads like "I'll Be with You in Apple Blossom Time" with a sincerity that caused hardened GIs far from home to weep.
"When I was a kid, I only had two records and one of them was the Andrews Sisters. They were remarkable. Their sound, so pure," said Bette Midler, who had a hit cover of "Bugle Boy" in 1973. "Everything they did for our nation was more than we could have asked for. This is the last of the trio, and I hope the trumpets ushering (Patty) into heaven with her sisters are playing "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy."
From the late 1930s through the 1940s, the Andrews Sisters produced one hit record after another, beginning with "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" in 1937 and continuing with "Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar," "Rum and Coca-Cola" and more. They recorded more than 400 songs and sold over 80 million records, several of them going gold.
Other sisters, notably the Boswells, had become famous as singing acts, but mostly they huddled before a microphone in close harmony. The Andrews Sisters — LaVerne, Maxene and Patty — added a new dimension. During breaks in their singing, they cavorted about the stage in rhythm to the music.
Their voices combined with perfect synergy. As Patty remarked in 1971: "There were just three girls in the family. LaVerne had a very low voice. Maxene's was kind of high, and I was between. It was like God had given us voices to fit our parts."
Kathy Daris of the singing Lennon Sisters recalled on Facebook late Wednesday that the Andrews Sisters "were the first singing sister act that we tried to copy. We loved their rendition of songs, their high spirit, their fabulous harmony."
The Andrews Sisters' rise coincided with the advent of swing music, and their style fit perfectly into the new craze. They aimed at reproducing the sound of three harmonizing trumpets.
"I was listening to Benny Goodman and to all the bands," Patty once remarked. "I was into the feel, so that would go into my own musical ability. I was into swing. I loved the brass section."
Unlike other singing acts, the sisters recorded with popular bands of the `40s, fitting neatly into the styles of Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, Bob Crosby, Woody Herman, Guy Lombardo, Desi Arnaz and Russ Morgan. They sang dozens of songs on records with Bing Crosby, including the million-seller "Don't Fence Me In." They also recorded with Dick Haymes, Carmen Miranda, Danny Kaye, Al Jolson, Jimmy Durante and Red Foley.
The Andrews' popularity led to a contract with Universal Pictures, where they made a dozen low-budget musical comedies between 1940 and 1944. In 1947, they appeared in "The Road to Rio" with Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour.
The trio continued until LaVerne's death in 1967. By that time the close harmony had turned to discord, and the sisters had been openly feuding.
Midler's cover of "Bugle Boy" revived interest in the trio. The two survivors joined in 1974 for a Broadway show, "Over Here!" It ran for more than a year, but disputes with the producers led to the cancellation of the national tour of the show, and the sisters did not perform together again.
Patty continued on her own, finding success in Las Vegas and on TV variety shows. Her sister also toured solo until her death in 1995.
Her father, Peter Andrews, was a Greek immigrant who anglicized his name of Andreus when he arrived in America; his wife, Olga, was a Norwegian with a love of music. LaVerne was born in 1911, Maxine (later Maxene) in 1916, Patricia (later Patty, sometimes Patti) in 1918.
All three sisters were born and raised in the Minneapolis area, spending summers in Mound, Minn., on the western shores of Lake Minnetonka, about 20 miles west of Minneapolis.
Listening to the Boswell Sisters on radio, LaVerne played the piano and taught her sisters to sing in harmony; neither Maxene nor Patty ever learned to read music. All three studied singers at the vaudeville house near their father's restaurant. As their skills developed, they moved from amateur shows to vaudeville and singing with bands.
After Peter Andrews moved the family to New York in 1937, his wife, Olga, sought singing dates for the girls. They were often turned down with comments such as: "They sing too loud and they move too much." Olga persisted, and the sisters sang on radio with a hotel band at $15 a week. The broadcasts landed them a contract with Decca Records.
They recorded a few songs, and then came "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen," an old Yiddish song for which Sammy Cahn and Saul Kaplan wrote English lyrics. (The title means, "To Me You Are Beautiful.") It was a smash hit, and the Andrews Sisters were launched into the bigtime.
Their only disappointment was the movies. Universal was a penny-pinching studio that ground out product to fit the lower half of a double bill. The sisters were seldom involved in the plots, being used for musical interludes in film with titles such as "Private Buckaroo," "Swingtime Johnny" and "Moonlight and Cactus."
Their only hit was "Buck Privates," which made stars of Abbott and Costello and included the trio's blockbuster "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy from Company B."
In 1947, Patty married Martin Melcher, an agent who represented the sisters as well as Doris Day, then at the beginning of her film career. Patty divorced Melcher in 1949 and soon he became Day's husband, manager and producer.
Patty married Walter Weschler, pianist for the sisters, in 1952. He became their manager and demanded more pay for himself and for Patty. The two other sisters rebelled, and their differences with Patty became public. Lawsuits were filed between the two camps.
"We had been together nearly all our lives," Patty explained in 1971. "Then in one year our dream world ended. Our mother died and then our father. All three of us were upset, and we were at each other's throats all the time."
Patty Andrews is survived by her foster daughter, Pam DuBois, a niece and several cousins. Weschler died in 2010.
A memorial service is planned in Los Angeles, with the date to be determined.

With nearly 2 million illegal immigrants and a 1,200-mile border with Mexico, Texas has more at stake than most states in the renewed push to overhaul the nation's immigration system.
Yet so far, Gov. Rick Perry and Republicans who control the Legislature have been sitting this debate out.
They're not resurrecting dozens of contentious immigration bills that roiled the statehouse in 2011. They're not making the rounds on TV and radio to talk about President Barack Obama's plan for legalizing immigrants. They're not even saying the word "immigration."
When Perry delivered his State of the State recently -- his first since his failed presidential run -- glaringly absent in the 37-minute speech was any mention of the issue at all.
The silence speaks to the sudden political shift in immigration since last fall's presidential election, in which Hispanics voted Democratic by a nearly 3-to-1 margin and created a powerful incentive for Republicans to change their approach to this growing ethnic group.
In Congress, Republicans have softened their opposition to accommodating immigrants, and a bipartisan group of Senate negotiators unveiled a bill framework that includes a pathway to citizenship for those already in the U.S. so long as border security is beefed up.
But in Texas, the party has been left speechless in the Capitol. GOP leaders find themselves caught between traditional supporters, who feel swamped by illegal immigrants and want tough action, and a surging Hispanic population. Minorities accounted for nearly nine out of every 10 new Texas residents in the past decade, and the demographic shift could soon transform the politics in a state where Democrats haven't won a statewide office since 1994.
The latest news from around North Texas.
"There's not nearly as much energy around it as there was," says Republican state Rep. John Zerwas, acknowledging the collapse of hard-line immigration proposals such as his to require state agencies to compile the costs related to illegal immigrants. "I think you're seeing that at the national level, and probably a good bit of that is trickling down to the state level."
Similar pivots are under way in other Republican statehouses, but perhaps nowhere is the change more evident than in Texas because of how much rhetoric the issue has traditionally received here.
Texas Republicans regularly used illegal immigration as a campaign cudgel against Democrats like Obama and as a rallying point for fed-up conservatives while trying to reach out to legal Hispanic residents as the party best aligned with their values.
Only two years ago in his State of the State address, Perry called for punishing "sanctuary cities" that bar police officers from asking detainees about their immigration status.
There's no talk of such measures now.
"You want an answer? That tried and that failed," said Texas Republican Party Chairman Steve Munisteri. "Responsible leadership is now focusing on things that have a chance to get passed."
Immigration isn't an easy subject to ignore in Texas, though.
About 16 percent of the illegal immigrants in the United States live in the state, according to a Department of Homeland Security report in 2012, and immigration leaves an outsize footprint on the state's infrastructure.
When a district judge ruled this week that Texas' system for paying for public schools was unconstitutional, he sided with arguments that state funding hasn't kept pace with rising numbers of students needing extra instruction to learn English. The ruling may force the Legislature to overhaul school finance by the summer.
So red-hot was immigration for Texas Republicans in the last legislative session that state Rep. Debbie Riddle camped outside the clerk's office to make sure her bills targeting illegal immigrants were filed first. About 50 bills related to immigration were filed in all. This time, Riddle, who once famously warned of immigrant mothers in the U.S. giving birth to "terror babies" who would grow up to attack the country as unsuspecting citizens, has not submitted any immigration proposals.
Perry talked tough about illegal immigration in his race for president, making his demand for more federal "boots on the ground" on the border all but a campaign slogan. But other Republican candidates talked even tougher. Perry wound up being criticized for his support of a 2001 state law that allowed tuition breaks for the children of illegals.
State demographers have predicted that Hispanics will make up a plurality of Texans by 2020, and then become the majority between 10 and 20 years later. In the last governor's race, the Republican nominee, Perry, won less than 40 of the Hispanic vote, according to exit polls.
Last summer, the Texas GOP softened on immigration at the party's annual convention, acknowledging that mass deportation isn't possible and calling for common ground. Six months later, some far-right Republicans are seething that immigration has dropped off the party's radar.
"Establishment Republicans are trying to brand a different message," said Maria Martinez, executive director of the Immigration and Reform Coalition of Texas that backed "sanctuary city" proposals in 2011.
Texas could still wind up with a say on the new immigration plan. The Senate immigration plan would create a commission of lawmakers and border-state community leaders to assess when adequate border security measures have been completed.
Freshman Democratic U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, who previously served in the Texas House, doubts his home state would let that happen.
"I don't think that Rick Perry and (Arizona Gov.) Jan Brewer will ever say the border is secure," Castro said. With conservatives angry about the issue, "they know they risk a primary challenge if they come out and say the border is secure."

NEW YORK — The Standard &Poor's 500 closed at its highest level in five years Friday after a report showed that hiring held up in December, giving stocks an early lift.
The S&P 500 finished up 7.10 points at 1,466.47, its highest close since December 2007.
The index began its descent from a record close of 1,565.15 in October 2007, as the early signs of the financial crisis began to emerge. The index bottomed out in March 2009 at 676.53 before staging a recovery that has seen it more than double in value and move to within 99 points of its all-time peak.
The remarkable recovery has come despite a halting recovery in the U.S. economy as the Federal Reserve provided huge support to the financial system, buying hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of bonds and holding benchmark interest rates near zero. Last month the Fed said it would keep rates low until the unemployment rate improved significantly.
"Without the Federal Reserve doing what they did for the last few years, there would be no way you'd be near any of these levels in the index," said Joe Saluzzi, co-head of equity trading at Themis Trading. "I would call this the Fed-levitating market."
The Dow Jones industrial average finished 43.85 points higher at 13,435.21. It gained 3.8 percent for the week, its biggest weekly advance since June. The Nasdaq closed up 1.09 point at 3,101.66.
Stocks have surged this week after lawmakers passed a bill to avoid a combination of government spending cuts and tax increases that have come to be known as the "fiscal cliff." The law passed late Tuesday night averted that outcome, which could have pushed the economy back into recession.
The Labor Department said U.S. employers added 155,000 jobs in December, showing that hiring held up during the tense fiscal negotiations in Washington. It also said hiring was stronger in November than first thought. The unemployment rate held steady at 7.8 percent.
The jobs report failed to give stocks more of a boost because the number of jobs was exactly in line with analysts' forecasts, said JJ Kinahan, chief derivatives trader for TD Ameritrade.
"The jobs report couldn't have been more in line," Kinahan said. "The market had more to lose than to gain from it."
Among stocks making big moves, Eli Lilly and Co. jumped $1.84, or 3.7 percent, to $51.56 after saying that its earnings will grow more than Wall Street expects, even though the drugmaker will lose U.S. patent protection for two more product types this year.
Walgreen Co., the nation's largest drugstore chain, fell 61 cents, or 1.6 percent, to $37.18 after the company said that a measure of revenue fell more than analysts had expected in December, even as prescription counts continued to recover.
Stocks may also be benefiting as investors adjust their portfolios to favor stocks over bonds, said TD Ameritrade's Kinahan. A multi-year rally in bonds has pushed up prices for the securities and reduced the yield that they offer, in many cases to levels below company dividends.
Goldman Sachs reaffirmed its view that stocks "can be an attractive source of income," and warned that there is a risk that bonds may fall. In a note to clients, the investment bank said that an index of AAA rated corporate bonds offers a yield of just 1.6 percent, less than the S&P 500's dividend yield of 2.2 percent.
The 10-year Treasury note fell, pushing its yield higher. The yield on the 10-year note fell 2 basis points to 1.91 percent. The note's yield has now climbed 52 basis points since falling to its lowest in at least 20 years in July.
Other notable stock moves;
— Accuray Inc. plunged $1.37, or 20 percent, to $5.41 after the radiation oncology equipment company reported weak sales and said it would cut 13 percent of its staff.
— Lululemon, a yoga apparel maker, dropped $3.14, or 4.2 percent, to $71.95 after Credit Suisse predicted slowing momentum and downgraded its stock.
— Finish Line Inc., an athletic footwear and clothing company, fell $1.58, or 8.3 percent, to $17.18 after it reported a small loss after sneaker trends changed and customers didn't take to its new web site launched in November. Analysts had forecast a profit.

While I was unable to obtain a photograph of the driver, I did make a visual inspection of the cabin, and I can report with 99% certainty that the driver of the above conveyance was indeed a hipster. I would have tried to catch up with him again, except I got stopped at the "Facial Hair Checkpoint" on the Williamsburg/Greenpoint border. Unfortunately, the hairway of my visage was deemed to be insufficiently unironic. Not only that, but I didn't have an official Williamsburg resident identification card. (A Williamsburg resident identification card consists of either a California driver's license or else a student ID from a qualifying college or university such as UC Santa Cruz, Wesleyan, or NYU.) As such, it was only after I paid a toll and assured them that I was only passing through with no intention of stopping that they finally let me go.
As you can see, the vanity plate reads "Musher-1," which obviously means the rider pilots a dogsled. Moreover, she's obviously preparing for the Iditarod, since triking is a popular form of cross-training among competitive mushers. Eddy Merckx famously said, "The Tour de France is won in bed." (This explains why Lance Armstrong spent the years before his comeback to cycling hanging out with Ashley Olsen.) Similarly, it is also said that "The Ididarod is won on the trike." I only hope the hipsters don't take up dogsledding, since I'd hate to share the bike path with people wearing tight jeans and ironic fur hats being pulled around by pitbulls they found on Craigslist.
Meanwhile, in the world of streetwear, it's been a long time since fixed-gear fashion married into the world of hip hop fashion, and now they're having children. Consider this hybrid flat brim/cycling cap, forwarded to me by another reader:
Thanks to the shortened brim, fixed-gear fashionistas will no longer have to suffer the indignity of their hats flying off their heads on those rare occasions when they travel faster than 10mph. However, they must still suffer with the indignity of looking like people who watch drifting videos, drive their Pista Concepts to freestyle spots in customized Scions, and camp out for sneakers. (Camping out for sneakers is like making reservations at Burger King.)
But as much as I hate to see the classic cycling cap integrated with the latest conformists' hat of choice, I stop short of attributing some kind of profound spiritual significance and meaning to cycling's wooly, tubular past. However, if I didn't, I would be slavering all over the latest issue of Rouleur, which the good people at Rapha were kind enough to send me:
This is not to say I don't appreciate Rouleur, because I certainly do; nor is it to say that the magazine is not well put together and pleasant to look at and read, because it certainly is. However, I also don't subscribe to the central tenets of Rouleur, which is that there's a fundamental romance in the rarefied aspects of cycling, and that old stuff is more "soulful" than new stuff. Actually, I don't think any "stuff" is soulful. Granted, I'm not the most romantic person, but I don't find elusive and complicated things seductive, and I especially don't believe that "the tubular tyre has an unquestionable romance" (as Guy Andrews claims in the second installment of his "epic" sew-up report). I certainly understand that tubular tires have their benefits, and I'm even interested in reading about how they're made. But as soon as the prose starts sounding like it was composed on laudanum I can no longer remain engaged. In this sense, the tubular tire is sort of the burrito of the cycling world, since people seem compelled to rhapsodize about both, even though essentially they're just stuff wrapped in a skin with varying degrees of quality.
Here they are sharing an inside joke about a Simplex derailleur pulley:
And these guys don't just love stuff; they also love the stuff in which the stuff is packaged. Says Kadir:
Winning a cyclocross race on a bike like that would doubtless bring instant fame. I wonder if he'd let me have his shorts.

What can you expect from records like this?
This short guide gives you an idea of what to expect from a typical record, and shows you an example of what one might look like. We can't guarantee you will unearth what you are looking for, but we can try to help you enjoy the process of finding out.
What information do the records contain?
Some diaries record little more than daily losses and map references, while others are much more descriptive, with daily reports on operations, intelligence summaries and other material. The digitised diaries cover activity in France and Belgium.
The diaries sometimes contain information about particular people but they are unit diaries, not personal diaries. Some contain details about gallantry awards and many include maps, plans and other documents as appendices.
What do the records look like?
With each download, you will typically see a unit diary that may cover a period of several years. This may be divided into several PDF files, which you can save to your computer. You can then scroll through the PDF files to locate the battalion and dates that you are interested in.
Many of the war diaries were scribbled hastily in pencil and use obscure abbreviations, whilst some are the second carbon copy of the original, so they may be difficult to read.
How can you find out more?
A research guide is available for records in this subject.
