Workers at a Calgary animal shelter were shocked after they discovered a seven-week-old puppy suffering from severe burns.
The puppy, who has been given the name Nero, was abandoned in Saskatchewan and brought in to the Calgary shelter.
"Even seasoned rescuers were shocked beyond belief," said the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society (AARCS) in a statement.
"We got a call from a citizen who had found him. He had severe burns on his head and face," Deanna Thompson, with AARCS, told 660News.
He underwent surgery in Calgary on Friday, and the burns were so serious that Nero lost one ear, 660News adds.
Thompson told the Calgary Herald she suspects something flammable was poured on the animal and was ignited.
She said the Saskatchewan SPCA has also been notified.
The puppy will require weeks of recovery, and AARCS says they hope he won’t have life-long injuries to his eyes.
"We are trying to find out who did this, but it doesn’t look promising as he was found abandoned," they added.
Donations for Nero can be made through the AARCS website.

Negotiations over the Israeli government’s judicial reform initiative resumed on Monday as coalition representatives met with counterparts from the Yesh Atid and National Unity parties at the President’s Residence in Jerusalem.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who is mediating between the sides, said the talks would be “focused and rigorous” and cover all core issues.
“The Office of the President continues to do everything in its power to encourage the sides to adhere to dialogue with the aim of bringing about a broad consensus,” said a statement from the president’s office.
Herzog jump-started talks late last month after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced in a national address that he was putting a hold on the reform effort in order to “provide a real opportunity for real dialogue.”
The coalition’s negotiating team includes Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer; Cabinet Secretary Yossi Fuchs; professor Talia Einhorn of Ariel University; and Aviad Bakshi, head of the legal department at the Kohelet Policy Forum.
Yesh Atid is being represented by lawmakers Orna Barbivai and Karine Elharrar, Na’ama Schultz, an aide to opposition and party leader Yair Lapid, and attorney Oded Gazit. National Unity’s team includes parliamentarians Gideon Sa’ar, Yehiel Tropper, Orit Farkash-Hacohen and attorney Ronan Aviani.
Israeli media reported on Sunday that the talks have produced a proposal regarding a major piece of the government’s program. Under the proposal, Supreme Court justices and politicians would not sit on the Judicial Selection Committee but would instead select members according to certain criteria. The coalition, opposition and judges would have the opportunity to choose committee members in different areas of expertise, such as academics, researchers, retired judges and senior attorneys. However, agreement has not been reached on the number of committee members that the ruling coalition and the political opposition would choose.
Meanwhile, protests against judicial reform entered their fifteenth week as thousands of demonstrators gathered in Tel Aviv on Saturday night. Thousands of heretofore quiescent supporters of reform also attended protests across the country.
The latest protests came after Am Echad, a U.S. group associated with the ultra-Orthodox Agudath Israel of America, sent an open letter last week to Lapid expressing “grave concern” over comments he made at a Jewish Federations meeting in New York.
“Rhetoric characterizing the government as ‘extremist’ and ‘undemocratic’ jeopardizes the relationship between Israel and world Jews,” wrote Shlomo Werdiger and Irving Lebovics, co-chairmen of Am Echad. “More importantly, when such statements move into mainstream media, they delegitimize Israel itself, and by extension pose real danger to the safety of Diaspora communities.”
“In your role as the Head of the Opposition, you are both entitled and required to critique the government. However, that does not extend to undermining the government outside the borders of Israel, calling on Diaspora Jews to counter the government, and driving a wedge between Israel and Jews around the world,” they added.

A little interesting about space life.
Dr. Rufu and Dr. Canup studied the scenario in which Neptune once, when it was young, had a typical prograde system of moons orbiting it that was similar to those of the other gas giants in our Solar System. The two authors propose that Triton may have originally been a KBO that wandered away from its home in the Kuiper Belt, only to be snared by Neptune. The interactions that resulted from the capture of Triton between retrograde moons and Neptune's original, prograde moons may have then resulted in the destruction of this orderly system, leaving in its wake only the ruthless Triton and Neptune's moons that are still around today.

With such intriguing results before them, the team of astronomers studied the data to determine if Kepler-22b actually has a moon. Unfortunately, their analysis reveals no evidence for the existence of an exomoon circling Kepler-22b. This non-detection suggests that the mass of any companion world around Kepler-22b must be less than 0.54 times the mass of our planet--with an impressive confidence rate of 95%! Therefore, it is very unlikely that Kepler-22b is circled by an Earth-like moon. Nevertheless, it is still too soon to give up hope. The Hunt for Exomoons with Kepler project has studied nine planetary systems in search of exomoons. Although none were detected, with the team's new results about the possibility of finding Earth-sized moons and the remaining treasure trove of Kepler data to sift through, large and possibly even habitable exomoons may start being spotted in the near future.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a collaborative NASA/European Space Agency/Italian Space Agency robotic spacecraft that is observing the Saturn system. The spacecraft was initially constructed to sport two components: One is the European Space Agency-designed Huygens Probe named in honor of the Dutch mathematician and astronomer Christiaan Huygens (1629-1695), who discovered Titan. Huygens also studied the rings of Saturn. The second component, the NASA-designed Cassini Orbiter, was named for the Italian-French astronomer Giovanni Dominico Cassini (1625-1712) who discovered four of Saturn's other moons. After a long, difficult journey through interplanetary space, that took it from Earth to Saturn, Cassini-Huygens finally reached the realm of the ringed planet on July 1, 2004. On December 25, 2004, the Huygens Probe was deliberately severed from the Cassini Orbiter, and began its descent down to the long-veiled and hidden surface of Titan--sending back, to waiting astronomers on Earth, an abundance of valuable information about the mysterious moon-world. Titan, at last, had its hidden face unveiled--revealing its well-kept secrets. The mission will continue until 2017.

Legend has it that A) the day he was born as Prince Siddhartha Gautama in ca. 563 B.C., B) the day of his 'Great Enlightenment' under the Bodhi tree (Tree of Enlightenment) in ca. 533 B.C. and C) the day of his death, i.e. his passing on to 'Nibbana' or 'Parinibanna' (a state of neither being existent nor non-existent that to reach is Buddhism's ultimate goal) as 'Buddha', meaning the 'Enlightened One' in ca. 483 B.C. fell all on a full-moon day, the day celebrated by the Burmese Buddhists as full-moon day of Kason. For this reason this day is also called 'Thrice Blessed Day' or 'Three-fold Anniversary'. Subsequently the 'Full-moon Day of Kason' marks the three main events of Siddhartha Gautama Buddha's life and as such it is celebrated in a fitting manner by Burmese Buddhists all over the country.
In the fourth century BCE, Aristotle recorded that Mars vanished behind Earth's Moon during an occultation. This suggested that the planet was farther away than our Moon. The Greek astronomer, Ptolemy, who lived in Alexandria, attempted to solve the problem of the orbital motion of the Red Planet. Ptolemy's collective works and model on astronomy was presented in his multi-volume collection, titled the Almagest. The Almagest became the authoritative work on Western astronomy for the next 400 years. Ancient Chinese astronomers were also aware of the existence of Mars by no later than the fourth century BCE. In the fifth century CE, the Indian astronomical work titled Surya Siddhanta proposed a measurement of the estimated diameter of Mars. In East Asian cultures, Mars is usually referred to as the "fire star"--based on the Five Elements: fire, wood, metal, water, and earth.
Moon Goddess Receives the Latest at New Moon Time. At the New Moon time, the Moon Goddess is positioned directly between Mother Earth and the Sun. This is when the Moon Goddess discovers the latest that the Sun is experiencing in its travels through a new band in the sky. It is when the Moon Goddess's back side is being fully illuminated by the Sun's emissions for a twenty four hour period, beginning twelve hours before the actual encounter and lasting for twelve hours afterward.


PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – A new documentary produced in Oregon and across the Western United States asks people to re-examine their relationship with wildfire and what they can do to better protect their homes from igniting.
The film’s production began in 2017 when executive producer Ralph Bloemers and the team headed to the Columbia River Gorge to document the Eagle Creek Fire and its aftermath.
The opportunity to cover wildfires expanded after the team received funding from National Geographic to pursue a feature film – and in the years after Eagle Creek, the wildfires kept coming.
“The Paradise fire in 2018, which in a matter of 8 hours burned over 18,000 homes, to the 2020 fires in Oregon, which impacted communities across Oregon and even out in the coast,” Boemers described.
The team thought they’d end production in 2020, but as more catastrophic fires happened throughout the season, they knew there was more to do. 2021 also brought the Dixie Fire and Caldor Fire in California, the Marshall Fire in Colorado, and the Bootleg Fire in Oregon.
The documentary was extended another half-hour to include more disasters from these years.
Over the course of 5 years, Bloemers said the essence of the film changed from being a story about wildfires to a story about living with wildfire, managing wildfire, and hope for the future.
“I think that we had done our homework and spent enough time with the material to be able to put together a story, a documentary, a piece of a piece of journalism that compellingly conveyed what the science was telling us, and what we were learning from the community,” he said.
Without giving away too many details about the documentary, Bloemers said the film explores ways people can prevent their homes from igniting and burning, even in the most extreme conditions.
He said the film explains the limits of firefighters and why they can’t always save homes or be everywhere a fire is burning.
Much of the documentary is also devoted to research and includes interviews with top scientists in the country who study forest and timber land management. Native people from the Karuk and Yurok Tribes in Northern California also explain how their people have traditionally used controlled burns to prevent massive forest fires.
“I think part of the goal in making this film is to show people that are using fire for its benefits,” Bloemers said.
Since film production ended, he said more fires have burned across the West and Bloemers knows there are more stories to tell about how these more recent disasters have affected people. He and the team are already thinking about future projects and what comes next.

Retail behemoth Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) is slimming down and opening its second tiny store on a college campus, continuing a test program that began in 2011.
The new store, at Georgia Tech, will be between 2,500 and 5,000 square feet and show just how deeply Wal-Mart, whose Super Wal-Marts average 185,000 square feet, can downsize.
Like the first "Wal-Mart on Campus" opened at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, the new store will offer pharmacy services, basic groceries and general merchandise.
Wal-Mart's opening of tiny stores comes as retailer is looking for different ways to downsize from the massive stores that built the company into a nearly $500 billion-a-year business. Stepped-up competition from deep discounters and a desire to enter urban areas, among other reasons, have Wal-Mart thinking about ways to refresh its big-box approach.
Wal-Mart currently operates about 230 Neighborhood Markets averaging 40,000 square feet and 12 Walmart Express stores that average 15,000 square feet.

Today's urbanist may also see a future gondola station, a walkable destination, or the potential for sustaining natural pockets amid the built environment. But what compels such vision? I'll take a leap of faith here, in order to put a modern gloss on the human imagination that conceived the edge of the earth in Italy, long ago.
The city is a perpetually incomplete project; it is constantly being remade and reshaped by the changing state of our world, whether by the interventions of its governing bodies or the powerful actions of its residents. Architecture can and must speak to this adaptability, as both a technology and reflection of social change.
Picture an ancient city full of intricately carved stone temples, where millions of pilgrims and ascetics come to bathe in the holy waters of the Ganges, as Hindus have done for hundreds of generations. Now, imagine that the holy water of the Ganges is being monitored by electronic sensors to detect pollution levels, and the lights illuminating the streets and houses of this city are fitted with motion sensors and calibrated to save energy.

NAJAF: Young Iraqi protesters pushed on with anti-government rallies across the country on Thursday as they buried seven fellow activists killed overnight in violence blamed on supporters of Moqtada Sadr.
Sadr had backed the rallies demanding the ouster of the entire political class when they erupted in October but has since then changed course.
In supporting ex-minister Mohammad Allawi as Iraq’s new premier, Sadr split with the rest of the popular movement, and his diehard followers have turned on rival protesters.
Late on Wednesday, Sadrists raided a protest camp in Iraq’s shrine city of Najaf where demonstrators had been chanting against Allawi.
Seven anti-government protesters were killed by bullets to the head or chest, medics in the city said, and dozens more were wounded.
On Thursday morning, the dead were wrapped in white shrouds and carefully laid in coffins draped with Iraqi flags, then carried in a funeral march through the city.
Young Iraqis, sobbing, grasped at the coffins as they were carried past.
Despite the bloodshed, Iraqis gathered for renewed rallies, with hundreds of students flooding Baghdad’s Tahrir Square.
“Whether ten or 100 die, I won’t abandon this cause!” they chanted, as a girl stood silently nearby with a banner that read, “Our martyrs are our candidates”.
High school student Tayba walked into Tahrir alone, an Iraqi flag tied around her shoulders.
“We’ve finally got used to it,” she said somberly, of the violence in Najaf.
“In fact, we’re even more determined. Before, the students used to hold just one demonstration a week, now there are three.”
Nearly 490 people have been killed and 30,000 wounded since October. — AFP

Hydro-Dyne Center Flow Screen Selected to Help Remove Toxic Plastic Nurdles from Australian Waters
Warrnambool, Victoria is a coastal town along the scenic Great Ocean Road who’s 35,000 residents are closely connected to their maritime history, beaches, and marine environmental reserves.
They were unexpectedly thrust into the spotlight after large concentrations of “Nurdles” – pre-production plastic or plastic resin pellets – washed up on a beach adjacent to the Warrnambool Sewage Treatment Plant. These pellets are heated and chemically treated to mold plastic goods (Figure 1).
Shortly after that discovery, an operator at Wannon Region Water Corporation discovered more Nurdles in their tanks and other equipment, prompting an investigation. The Nurdles had been illegally dumped through the sewage treatment system and were being expelled into the ocean through the plant’s effluent outfall. Due to their size, hardness, and buoyancy, it was easy for them to float through the wastewater plant without being removed.
Huge volumes of Nurdles are produced and shipped around the world each year, and a large number is lost in marine areas due to cargo loss and spills.
Equipment: Great White Center Flow Screen
Location: Warrnambool, VIC Australia
As they sit in the environment, they absorb pollutants becoming toxic and because they never disappear completely (they only break down into smaller and smaller pieces), they are ingested by animals and are difficult to remove from the environment. It was critical that the Nurdles be eradicated as quickly as possible.
The solution to eliminate the Nurdles from the discharge effluent at the Warrnambool STP required a high-performance screen with the ability to remove all hard solids greater than 1mm in any two dimensions prior to plant discharge. The screen must perform to the precision of a filter while passing municipal instantaneous plant flows of 600 L/s (9510 GPM).
Hydro-Dyne and its local partner, Green Process, designed a solution including Hydro-Dyne’s Great White Center Flow band screen (Figure 2). The Great White was selected over alternative options due to:
- The overall design was able to accommodate the channel geometry limitations on site, high instantaneous flow, and fine screen opening requirements without requiring modifications to the structure of the facility.
- The moving band design seals and maintains 0.5mm tolerances, within pivoting components of the band itself and the band to the static screen body.
- Use of 1mm mesh grid openings and industry leading screening capture ratio.
Multiple (40+) performance tests, with zero reported failures, demonstrated 100% removal of hard solids above 1mm and a very high percentage of hard solids above 0.5mm were captured by the screen. Head losses were consistent with the projections within the hydraulic profile presented for technical review at tender stage. The operators at both Wannon and Warnambool STP have put the screen through its paces and have been very pleased with its performance – and they continue to push it to further reduce water use.
While removing all the Nurdles from the environment is not possible, the Hydro-Dyne screen and ongoing clean-up efforts from the community continue to result in decreased amounts washing up on Warrnambool beaches and ensure no additional Nurdles or plastics enter the pristine marine environment through the treatment plant outfall.

Members of the genus Peropuvirus infect parasitoid wasps, barnacles, pillworms, woodlice odonates, or copepods.
Pteromalus puparum negative-strand RNA virus 1 (PpNSRV-1) was originally isolated from a laboratory parasitoid strain of a pteromalid wasp. The virus is present in various tissues and life stages of the parasitoid and is transmitted vertically through females and males. PpNSRV-1 increases adult longevity and impairs several fitness parameters of the wasp but has no influence on successful parasitism. PpNSRV1 moderates the offspring sex ratio by decreasing female offspring numbers (Wang et al., 2017).
See discussion under family description.
No species demarcation criteria have been established beyond virus phylogeny and hosts. Members of different Peropuvirus species differ by 52–75% in L amino acid sequence, although sequence divergence is not currently used as a formal species demarcation criterion.

Very happy! (2017-03-19)
Received these with no problems. Neatsfoot oil helps to darken them nicely.
Fast Delivery (2016-01-15)
Very happy with the saddle wallet. Delivery was quick and greatly appreciated. Some issue with the invoice and what was charged on my credit card, but will take that up with WPG.
Perfect match to UP Saddle (2015-05-20)
After saddle soaping and treating with Effax, these wallets are a perfect color match to the original finish on my UP saddle. They come with three first-pattern straps, so you also have one for the pommel arch and can attach your blanket or greatcoat. Others I have seen come with only two of the second pattern Y-straps.
5th Otago Mounted Rifles (2014-07-04)
Very happy with these saddle wallets. Had a few issues with tracking the parcel with Skynet but otherwise all good.
Happy my purchase. (2014-03-04)
Purchased UP Saddle Wallets. Very happy with them. NOT happy with TOLL Priority dispatch (Australia). They do not deliver to my area as I am in a remote rural area on a ranch and when contacted to ascertain the location of my parcel, they refused to tell me where it was for me to go and collect it. I ended up ringing all the local couriers in my region to locate it and collected it myself. But very happy with WPG and the item itself!

Visualizing the visual pathway
Bilateral optic nerve confluence at the optic chiasm, anterior cerebral arteries, and anterior communicating artery during endoscopic endonasal resection of a craniopharyngioma compressing chiasm [Fig. 1]. Preoperative visual acuity was 1.4 logMAR units in right (OD) and 0.3 in the left eye with macular branch retinal vein occlusion in OD. Surgery performed using an image-guided protocol with intraoperative monitoring of visual evoked potentials as described by Miyagishima et al. Complete tumor removal was achieved. There was no deterioration of visual function postoperatively.
We highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and application of advanced intraoperative technology in the management of lesions affecting the visual pathway.

At 3.30am on Tuesday, Indian Air Force Mirage 2000 fighter jets conducted India’s first ever peacetime air strikes in Pakistan, destroying a Jaish-e-Muhammad training facility on the town of Balakot using Israeli-built Spice 2000 precision guided munitions. The strikes were an elaborate punitive response set in motion by the Jaish-e-Muhammad’s killing of over 40 personnel of India’s central reserve police force (CRPF), terrorist strike in south Kashmir on February 14. Given the go-ahead by the government on February 15, the Indian Air Force evolved a strike plan that involved a variety of aircraft and assets — five Su-30 MKI jets in the air on combat air patrol, a DRDO-Embraer Netra AEW&C jet for command and control, an Il-78M refuelling tanker and an IAI Heron drone for real time surveillance along the Line of Control.
Not since the 1971 war — in which India most decisively defeated Pakistan to liberate Bangladesh — has India conducted air strikes on Pakistani territory. In fact, in 1999, when India and Pakistan next went to war, albeit a limited border confrontation in the Kargil heights, India conducted aerial strikes on Pakistan Army intruders, but took a decision not to send its jets across the Line of Control into Pakistani territory or Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The option of punitive air strikes as a response to terror attacks has emerged occasionally ever since, most notably in 2008 after the 26/11 Lashkar-e-Taiba terror strikes in Mumbai. India’s reluctance to conduct such strikes have been considered, and have worked to win India even more moral authority internationally than it already has as the world’s largest democracy. On February 16, though, India has harnessed that well-earned moral authority to change the game, and convey to Pakistan that terrorist attacks on Indian soil could very well lead to an airborne retaliation.
Among the several assets deployed on the complex and dangerous strike mission in hostile airspace — reports variously suggest Pakistan scrambled JF-17 and F-16 jets but not soon enough to engage the IAF’s Mirages — India’s Netra AEW&C platform stands out as one of the ‘brains’ behind the mission. And now, considering that the bombing of Balakot has shifted a critical paradigm on India’s traditional reluctance towards punitive action, there are five homegrown weapons programs that likely deserve government priority. To be sure, these are sanctioned projects that are underway, but in light of events of Tuesday night, assume enormously more significance in India’s future order of battle. In no particular order:
1. Ghatak stealth unmanned combat air vehicle
The Ghatak is easily India’s most advanced aviation project — seeking to build a stealth flying-wing unmanned bomber aircraft. Detailed here and here on Livefist, the Ghatak will also be India’s most difficult, since it involves a coming together of technologies being developed from scratch by India, including all aspects of stealth including shapes and materials, low observable aerodynamics, autonomous flight controls, advanced data links and suitable strike weapons. Many of the foundational technologies being developed for the Ghatak are being developed for India’s fifth generation fighter concept, the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft.
2. Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft
India’s AMCA is still in a design and definition phase, but its importance has expanded considerably in recent months, starting with India’s decision last year to walk away from the Russian Su-57/FGFA program, and the Indian Air Force’s first public declaration that the AMCA would be its priority fifth generation project if it delivered on time. The events of February 26 in Pakistani airspace should add even more pressure to the project to stay on track and meet its milestones. As the government and Indian Air Force navigate the LCA Tejas program, it would be imperative now to keep a close eye on the AMCA program as a priority aviation venture. India has correctly chosen to link its acquisition of 110 Make-in-India foreign fighters with technology for the AMCA program, but timelines shouldn’t slip as a result of slow decision-making. The AMCA project needs to be on full speed. Livefist interviewed the director of the AMCA program last week — he said the project aims for a first flight in six years.
3. BrahMos A & BrahMos NG
The BrahMos A air-delivered 290 km range supersonic cruise missile for the Su-30 MKI is about to enter a final phase of flight test that will involve firing the missile at a variety of flying envelopes. The missile will give India’s first truly stand-off strike weapon. The BrahMos NG, a smaller, lighter version with similar specifications, was recently revealed as a possible fit for the LCA Tejas Mk.1A, not just as a strike weapon, but also as a weapon capable of taking out lumbering airborne targets like AWACS or tankers — a major capability definition. With the sort of range it brings to bear, the BrahMos A and BrahMos NG could be weapons of choice for punitive air strikes in the future.
4. New Generation Anti-Radiation Missile
The DRDO’s NGARM could be a very important stand-off strike weapon, designed as it is to take out radar and communications facilities. With at least two test-firings so far, the weapon will be an optional fit on Su-30 MKIs in the future. With a range in excess of 100 km, this will be India’s first fully indigenous stand-off strike weapon.
5. Smart Anti-Airfield Weapon
The DRDO’s Smart Anti-Airfield Weapon (SAAW), a stand-off gliding munition designed to destroy airfields and runways is already in test from IAF Jaguars, with HAL’s Hawk-i to deploy the weapon this April. Alongside the NGARM, the SAAW will give the Indian Air Force a set of homegrown stand-off strike weapons. While the SAAW and NGARM are customised for specific missions, the precision strike weapons that the Indian Air Force currently has are the Israeli Spice 2000 and AGM-142 Popeye. The IAF used Spice 2000 munitions for Tuesday’s air strikes in Pakistan.


Is motorsport ready for a gay driver?
As the opening race in the Global GT Challenge approaches, lead driver Mark Hunter struggles to regain his confidence after Randolph Racing’s last disastrous season. Mark hesitates when owner Randy says he’s found the perfect replacement for their arrogant previous teammate, Brad Wilkins. Former single-seater star Jordan Matthews is excited to join the crew and ready to put past troubles behind him.
Trust builds as Mark and Jordan become a fine-tuned team for the number 17 Saleen, earning a podium in Abu Dhabi at the season opener. Their friendship develops into more as they continue to earn prestige for Randolph Racing. But their success sparks jealousy, and people from their pasts threaten vengeance. Jordan is reluctant to ruin his fresh start in racing by exposing the secrets that almost cost him his career ten years ago. If he can’t take the risk, he’ll never realize his dream of kissing Mark on the winner’s podium.

Another Loss Added to List of Orange County Office Sales
Another office bites the dust, proverbially speaking.
TPG Angelo Gordon and Ocean West Capital Partners have sold a nine-story office building in Orange County, Calif., for $31 million, or $146 per square foot, property records show. That’s 42.5 percent less than the $54 million it traded for in April 2019. Ocean West recently completed a $2.5 million renovation on the property, according to its website.
Records show New American Funding acquired the 212,000-square-foot office at 1 MacArthur Place in Santa Ana, about a quarter-mile north of a group of other offices along Hutton Centre Drive that sold for measurable losses in separate transactions over the past year.
Neither the buyer nor the sellers responded to requests for comment on the deal.
There are no office projects currently under construction in Orange County, according to CBRE (CBRE)’s fourth-quarter market report. Other than the COVID-constrained 2020, last year was the only time in more than a decade that Orange County saw negative annual office absorption at 1.7 million square feet.
“The lack of leases signed over 10,000 square feet contributed heavily as they did not keep pace with the rate of large spaces returned to landlords,” CBRE’s report reads.
El Segundo-based Ocean West Capital and TPG Angelo Gordon previously sold the nine-story 2 MacArthur building next door for $98 million in 2021 after acquiring it for $83 million in 2019 in what has become an outlier post-pandemic deal for Southern California. The premium sale price is largely because the State of California occupies much of that property on a lease that runs through 2039, per the Orange County Business Journal.

Andries van Aarde’s Matthew Interpretation
AbstractThis article focused on Andries van Aarde’s interpretation of the Gospel of Matthew. It argues that Van Aarde has changed his approach to Matthew in the course of time. At the beginning of his career he focused on structural analysis and even made a contribution to the Gattung problem from a structural perspective. Then his attention shifted to narrative criticism and social-scientific criticism. Van Aarde’s consistent narratological interpretation of Matthew enabled him to identify Matthew’s ideology and to determine the way in which it took shape on the surface structure. This narratological investigation also shed new light on, amongst others, the parables, the characters and the problem of direct and indirect discourse. To conclude the article, some critical statements with regard to the historical understanding of the Gospel of Matthew were formulated.

TEHRAN – Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif held meetings with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and three EU foreign ministers in Vienna on Sunday to help advance nuclear talks between Tehran and the major powers.
Kerry, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, and British Foreign Secretary William Hague arrived in the Austrian capital on Sunday to join the talks on a long-term settlement of the dispute over Tehran’s nuclear program.
The talks started on July 2.
Before the meetings, Zarif said on Twitter, “I won’t engage in blame games or spin. Not my style. What I will engage in is a sincere effort to come to an agreement. I expect the same.”
He also said, “We’re able to make history by this time next Sunday. Trust is a two-way street. Concerns of all sides must be addressed to reach a deal.”
Ahead of his meeting with European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, who coordinates the talks on behalf of the major powers, Kerry said major differences remain between Iran and the 5+1 group (the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany).
“Obviously we have some very significant gaps still, so we need to see if we can make some progress,” Reuters quoted Kerry as saying.
“It is vital to make certain that Iran is not going to develop a nuclear weapon and that their program is peaceful and that’s what we’re here to try and achieve and I hope we can make some progress,” he said.
Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi also said, “Disputes over all major and important issues still remain. We have not been able to narrow the gaps on major issues and it is not clear whether we can do it.”

BILLINGS — Jeff Malby has been a part of the Rocky Mountain College Battlin’ Bears family for a long time.
A 1984 RMC grad, the Three Forks native is the director of athletics at the private school. He also has a coaching history at Rocky, serving as assistant women’s basketball coach, head women’s basketball coach, and then head men’s basketball coach from 1985-1993. When he returned to the school in the summer of 2014, he was an assistant men’s basketball coach and then assistant athletic director.
So, when Malby received news that Rocky has captured the Bandy Memorial All-Sports trophy for a second consecutive season he felt a little pride and was especially happy for all who contributed to the achievement.
“I was excited when I saw that,” Malby said. “It’s very rewarding for everybody, for the entire college. You don’t always do it two times in a row. Sometimes you never do it. I’m proud of the student-athletes, the coaches, and the commitment from the administration. It all makes it worthwhile.”
The Frontier Conference announced Rocky won the award in a press release Saturday.
Rocky tallied 93.5 points and Lewis-Clark State College was second with 86.5. Carroll College was third with 85.5. Montana Western was fourth with 59, followed by Montana Tech with 58.5, Montana State-Northern with 47.5, Providence with 46.5, College of Idaho with 17 and Southern Oregon and Eastern Oregon with 7.5 points.
Last year, the Bears finished first with 112 points, topping second-place L-C State by 24 points.
“It’s the most prestigious award given out by the Frontier Conference,” Malby said. “It is just an honor to not only win it, but to always be in a position to win it. This year was a lot closer, but it certainly was a total department team effort, that’s for sure.”
It is the eighth time RMC has won. Carroll has won it a record 14 times. UM Western has captured the award six times, including the first. L-C State and Montana Tech have won it four times and MSU-Northern twice. The award was first presented after the 1982-83 season.
Malby said the award “is always icing on the cake and a good way to end the sports season.”
One thing Malby was especially proud of is the academic success Bears student-athletes have been achieving.
“Each semester when honor roll rolls out, we have a high percentage of student-athletes on the honors and dean’s list (3.6-3.99 GPA). We have an amazing number of 4.0s in that grouping,” he said. “This last semester, volleyball had nine 4.0s, which led the department, and football was second with six. It is just getting better and better every year.”
In terms of athletic success, it’s been a good last 10 days for the Bears, whose men’s ski team won the United States Collegiate Ski & Snowboard Association National Championships overall championship for a seventh time on March 12.
“I think they internally compete against each other and it makes the programs better and it’s continuing a proud tradition of competing and going to class and doing well and volunteering in the community,” Malby said. “That makes it so special.”
Currently, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and the Frontier Conference have canceled all sports-related activity due to the coronavirus pandemic. Even the weight room is closed at Rocky. Students are taking online classes. All is being done in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19 through social distancing.
Winning the award — which is earned by the Frontier school that has the most points based on regular-season finishes in football, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, volleyball and men’s and women’s golf – helped lift spirits at Rocky.
“It’s at least a way to deflect some of that worry and concern,” said Malby.
Malby said Rocky has responded well to the pandemic.
“The crisis management task force on campus has done an amazing job and looking at all angles when it comes to planning and doing what’s best to make life easier for the students,” he said. “I think it’s been handled extremely well, especially since everybody in leadership on campus has never been through anything like this. I think the whole community has really stepped up.”
Rocky claimed regular-season Frontier titles in men’s and women’s golf and women’s cross country. L-C State won titles in men’s cross country and men’s basketball. Carroll claimed the women’s basketball regular-season crown and College of Idaho was the conference champ in football. Tech and Providence each had a 9-3 conference mark in the regular season in volleyball.
The all-sports trophy is named in honor of the conference’s first commissioner, George Bandy, his wife, Cheryl Ann, and their 8-year-old son Michal. The family died in a boating accident on Canyon Ferry Reservoir in 1982.

Want the cheapest possible flight? The quirkiest hotel? The least tourist populated attraction? Leave it to your girl, Liv.
With over 10 years travel experience, I have turned my hobby into a profession as what my friends call a “travel hacker”. Doesn’t sound too glamorous, but when I’m drinking a Mai Tai by a pool in Hawaii for a roundtrip (including food + activities) less than a weekly grocery shop, I have come to appreciate that it might be a handier skill than I previously believed…
Now I want to share my tips with others, and take the stress out of planning for my busy followers. It takes me at least a day to plan the ideal itinerary, but it’s well worth it for the rewards you receive. For a reasonable fee, I can negotiate the best deals for you, as well as provide a run down of activities, attractions and dining options tailored to your preferences.
If you’d like to find out more fill out the contact form below and I will be in touch with a quote and estimated trip planning completion date.

I've seen this movie before. It came out in 1997 and Fuzzy Zoeller was the leading man.
According to the Huffington Post:
While attending the European Tour's Players’ Awards dinner in London on Tuesday evening, Garcia turned to a racial stereotype about African-Americans while apparently attempting to make a joke about his contentious relationship with Woods. As first reported by The Guardian, Garcia made the offensive remark when jokingly asked by the event's emcee, Steve Sands of The Golf Channel, if he would be inviting Woods over for dinner during the upcoming U.S. Open.
"We will have him round every night," García responded, according to The Guardian. "We will serve fried chicken."
According to the Daily Mail, some guests were stunned by the racist quip and an unnamed player described simply as "one leading Tour professional," remarked to a journalist "You didn’t hear that."
It's about time for Sergio to shut his fucking mouth. He is the only one (of the two) still talking about this stupid feud and IT IS STUPID and now he is perpetuating negative racial stereotypes making himself look like even more of a whiny man-baby (although I don't know how having the palate for delicious fried chicken is negative, but the world says it is).
Here is the Fuzzy Zoeller version.
UPDATE: Tiger Responds Via Twitter
The comment that was made wasn’t silly. It was wrong, hurtful and clearly inappropriate...— Tiger Woods (@TigerWoods) May 22, 2013
I’m confident that there is real regret that the remark was made.— Tiger Woods (@TigerWoods) May 22, 2013
The Players ended nearly two weeks ago and it’s long past time to move on and talk about golf.— Tiger Woods (@TigerWoods) May 22, 2013


The American Cricket Federation noted with interest George Dobell’s report on ESPNCricinfo.com regarding the current state of U.S. cricket management and an article by USYCA’s President, Jamie Harrison. See http://www.espncricinfo.com/usa/content/story/666369.html
Most U.S. cricketers are well aware of the facts associated with the nominal stewardship of the U.S. game and its lack of development over many decades. Equally, the scale of the annual investment made by the ICC, since 1965, is widely understood.
While commending the article for reading by all U.S. cricketers, the ACF prefers to look forward rather than adding its comments on a universally accepted and historic perspective. The formation of the ACF itself was motivated by similar terminal frustration.
What the ACF finds more interesting are the questions not posed by the article.
• Where has been the wider national debate among U.S. cricketers about the right development model for US cricket? Is the Dubai exploitation model the right one?
• Where is the democratic representation of the everyday U.S. cricketer?
• Why was it so easy for the ACF to define and gain public approval for its Constitution and its forthcoming election process?
• How is it that the ACF can organize annual National T20 inter-league tournaments, support youth cricket, and sponsor a major Women’s tournament with international participation, and all without ICC funding? Does U.S. cricket need foreign funding? Does it need just more promises?
• Why was it that the USYCA chose to affiliate with the ACF and rejected a USACA offer centered on “control” with a view to increasing its ICC stipend?
• What is better for U.S. cricket: organized altruism, broad US investment and opportunity for the benefit of all U.S. cricketers, or a narrow cabal of short-term, pay-booth self-interest?
These are the questions the American Cricket Federation is attempting to answer and we think we know the answers. The remaining question is: “what do the great, silent majority of U.S. cricketers think and will they make their voices heard?” The ACF elections in December, open to all members, just might provide the answers…….

Embedded fuel emulsification system for large displacement diesel engines
This technique was developed to emulsify diesel fuel and water, without using surfactant. The pump of the engine injector is supplied with the emulsion thus obtained, with a water content varying up to 40%, according to the needs of the user. The emulsion is mechanically obtained by a propeller rotating at high speed (more than 7 500 rpm) in a mixing chamber. Diesel fuel (including marine diesel fuel or heavy fuel oil) is pumped into this chamber from the bunkers. The water is added by means of a proportional solenoid valve, controlled by a microprocessor and the software to operate it. A signal sent to the microprocessor by a flow meter located in the fuel line, determines the amount of water to be added to the fuel by varying the opening of the solenoid valve. Downstream of the point of injection of the water into the fuel, the high speed propeller comes into contact with the two liquids. Mechanical agitation breaks up the water into fine droplets. The dispersion of the latter in the entire fuel constitutes the emulsion. It leaves the mixing chamber and enters the injection pump from which it is directed to the individual fuel injectors of the combustion chambers.
To go at full speed, a feedback from a speed sensor causes the closing of the solenoid valve that feeds the mixing chamber with water. The injector pump is now supplied with 100% Diesel fuel.
As approximately 90% of the fuel flowing to the injectors returns to the cargo hold, it must first be demulsified. For this purpose, a centrifugal separator is used. The water is returned to the water tank for re-use in the emulsification process, while the fuel is returned to the cargo hold.
This technique will result in the same nitrogen oxide emission reductions as those measured with surfactant emulsions, but has the additional flexibility to give the engine all the power needed in critical situations. With the use of surfactant, there will always be a loss of power, due to the water added to the fuel, because the water is devoid of thermal energy. In addition, in cold weather, the water content of the fuel is a concern for the circulation of the latter. In these applications, there is no question of storing emulsified fuel (diesel fuel + water + surfactant) if one wants to absorb the exhaust gas.

Vos & Fitzgerald like their backwater state This one-party governing-by-cruelty-and-obstruction will keep Wisconsin in the grip of petty hacks and business bellhops smugly content to keep the state stuck in a backwater while the country moves ahead. Call it the elitism of the mediocre, a win for the dullest, lowest common denominator.
Concentrated animal feeding operation winds up in court despite backing of Vos and Fitzgerald.
I find no issue with trying to avoid disenfranchising voters. And certainly the logistics in these cases is always problematic but Wisconsin has done hundreds of these special elections over the years under very similar circumstances. I read somewhere else that there might be about 100 such voters who may be affected. But there was never any concern shown or voiced for the tens of thousands of voters disenfranchised by NOT holding the special elections…all of those Wisconsin residents who live in the affected districts. Those residents who don’t have representation.

As we come to a close on 2022, I feel that the “rate shock” that slowed the
residential market in the last half of the year will gradually ease in 2023.
Since mortgage rates are tied to the 10-year U.S. Treasury bill rate, they reflect
the trajectory of anticipated inflation. Whether through a recession or continued
monetary tightening by the Federal Reserve Bank, the rate of inflation will most
likely fall during the first two quarters of next year.
I expect that the traditional 30-year fixed rate home mortgage will be around 5%
by mid-year 2023. The structural issues in the residential market that exist today
— demand for housing outstripping the supply — will continue throughout the
new year and perhaps get worse as lower mortgage rates will drive more buyers
into the market.
All that to say — housing prices will likely increase by about 10% in 2023.

Will Carrefour Close in China?
Carrefour, the French retailer announced on Sunday, it is selling an 80% stake in its China operations to Suning, ceding control in a market that it had first entered in 1995. They sold this for 4.8billion yuan.
When Carrefour first entered China, it was part of a wave of so called ‘Hypermarkets’ which were hailed as ‘game changers’. Arriving during a period where China were experimenting with Market Capitalism, European Hypermarkets like Carrefour, Metro of Germany and Tesco of Britain attempted to conquer the lucrative Chinese market. Carrefour enjoyed plenty of success over the first two decades in China as it has offered a unique shopping experience to Chinese consumers unlike that of domestic rivals such as department stores, supermarkets and convenience stores.
Carrefour’s offered a European shopping experience which was unlike anything Chinese consumers had seen before featuring rows and stacks of consumer items, foodstuffs, clothing, appliances and furniture occupying over tens of thousands of square feet. They were the subject of awe to many shoppers and a trip to Carrefour could often be seen as a trip out in itself.
What changed? Declining market share and sales for Carrefour combined with changing consumer demands.
The latest data from Market research firm Kantar Worldpanel showed that Carrefour’s 210 hypermarkets in China suffered a 0.3 percentage point erosion in market share to 2.8 per cent at the end of the first quarter of the year. In 2018 Carrefour’s Chinese business generated net sales of 28.5 billion yuan, down 5.9 per cent from last year. With Carrefour reporting a net loss of 578 million yuan for 2018 according to a statement from Sunning. Jason Yu, General manager of Kantar said, “foreign hypermarket brands are increasingly facing difficulties in making money from their Chinese businesses”. The company joins a spate of foreign retailers that retreated from China in recent years, including Tesco, Marks and Spencer and Best Buy. China’s E-commerce market is worth 2.24 trillion yuan, growing by 15.3% in the first quarter compared to last year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Whilst 23% of total consumer spending took place online during the first quarter. Reflecting 1.6% growth from last year. Whilst hypermarkets spending dropped by 3.4% from 2014 according to Kantar.
Reasons for their decline in China?
For foreign hypermarket brands like Carrefour the challenge of local e-tailers, the growing trend of e-commerce and fast delivery has meant that a large amount of structural and strategic readjustment would be necessary for them to compete. Additionally, the retailer’s China business has been struggling in recent years due to challenges such as rising rent, food and labor costs in China paired with a large amount of consumer complaints such as poor delivery and customer service.
Carrefour had previously tried to shore up its China Business, including a partnership last year with Tencent holds ltd to benefit from the tech giant’s digital expertise.
However, Eric Han, a senior manager with business advisory firm Shanghai Suolei, said “Since the digitalisation of China’s commerce is an irreversible trend and foreign companies have no concrete IT infrastructure or complete logistics network on hand, they are underdogs now,”. Logistics are tricky and finding a profitable business model for delivery has been complicated because of the large upfront costs to get close to customers.
The emergence of grocery delivery has become more commonplace as Chinese consumers are increasingly opting for convenience.“Vegetables, meat and dairy delivered to your door, that’s the tipping point we’re at right now,” said Michael Norris, research and strategy manager at AgencyChina. “The hypermarkets haven’t quite adjusted to these changing dynamics, it isn’t necessarily shoppers finding products but products finding shoppers.” Online food delivery has grown quickly in China, accounting for 45% of the global market, according to Sanford C. Bernstein.
To compete in the fast-delivery market, products should be within 3 kilometres, or about 2 miles of the consumer to arrive within a half-hour of ordering. Hypermarkets’ locations on the edges of cities make that difficult. “They’ve been around for so long, so to invest in e-commerce and e-commerce logistics and warehouses would be a totally new endeavor in what is already a very low-margin business,” said Ker Zheng, a consultant with Azoya, which advises global retailers and brands that are setting up e-commerce businesses in China.
To compete, brands such as Walmart Inc, have either partnered with one of China’s e-commerce giants or retreated whilst amazon sold its third-party online marketplace in China to a competitor after years of declining market share. Retail giants such as Tencent-backed JD.com Inc, Alibaba group Holding ltd and Walmart are experimenting with combining in-store shopping with e-commerce.
At Alibaba’s Hema stores, shoppers browse in the same space where employees fill bags with online orders that are placed on conveyor belts. At JD.com-backed 7FRESH supermarkets, customers can inspect produce and peruse other items, then use a mobile app to place their orders for delivery. Walmart said that by year-end its more than 400 stores in China would offer one-hour delivery through its partnership with JD.com. Michael Zakkour, author of The New Retail: Born in China, Going Globalstates that Chinese e-commerce giants like Alibaba and JD have a lockdown on the domestic market, and Amazon is thriving internationally, thanks to “complete integration of online, offline, logistics, and technology that is the heart of new retail.”
Sunning, who also purchased the Wanda groups department store chain last year, is 20% owned by Alibaba and is currently focused towards electronics and appliances. Sunning said the 80pc purchase of the French retailer would combine its delivery network and digital strategy with Carrefour’s global supply chain and supermarket-management experience. For the Chinese retailer, the deal is seen as enabling it to diversify beyond consumer electronics and appliances.
Furthermore, Pascal Martin, a Hong Kong-based partner at OC&C Strategy Consultants. Said “The big problem for Carrefour and other western grocery chains is that they have major challenges in their home countries and can’t afford to grow in China, In China, if you want to grow in the groceries space, you have to continue to invest capital in less developed cities.” Carrefour are unwilling to invest capital to the same extent as their rival’s due to the competition that they are facing with e-commerce giant Amazon back in France. Amazon have stated that Britain, Germany and France will be its three largest markets in Europe with the American tech player recently partnering with French retailer Casino launching pick-up lockers for parcel deliveries in over 1000 Casino locations in France as well as giving the French retailer a bigger presence on Amazon whilst it partners with Morrisons in the UK.
Carrefour have been criticised for it being slow to get going on e-commerce; In response, Carrefour announced in 2018 a five-year plan to cut costs and develop its e-commerce business. One step towards this has been the companies plan to partner with British retailer Tesco; which was announced last July, to form a global purchasing alliance to demand better terms from major suppliers. Carrefour will retain a 20% stake in the China business, however shows that China remains a strategic market for global retailers and that keep that stake will allow it to maintain a foothold in an innovative retail market.
Could this spell the end for Carrefour in China?

Iowa Governor Blasts Pentagon Air Guard Cuts
Just days before he and other governors are scheduled to meet with Pentagon brass, Iowa Governor Terry Branstad attacked the Defense Department Thursday (July 12) for failing to work with governors on plans to drastically cut the size of the Air National Guard.
“This last year was a disaster,” Branstad told a U.S. House subcommittee in Washington. The governor said he first learned of plans to cut equipment and personnel from the Air Guard when he read the newspapers.
The Iowa Republican is one of two co-chairs of the Governors Council, a body created by President Obama two years ago to “strengthen further the partnership between the federal government and state governments” on National Guard issues. But Branstad says the governors were essentially cut out of the process this year and he fears the same issues will come up again next year.
The Pentagon originally proposed eliminating 5,100 Air National Guard positions. Nearly every state would have experienced cuts under the plan. Branstad says governors and their adjutant generals who oversee the units met with Pentagon officials several times and even developed an alternative plan to meet the same budget goals. But Defense Secretary Leon Panetta rejected those proposals in April. Forty-nine governors opposed the Pentagon’s plan, and, eventually Congress blocked it for a year.
One reason Branstad worries governors will be surprised by the Pentagon’s budget proposal again is that the Air Force required employees at the National Guard Bureau, the agency that is supposed to help the Pentagon work with states, to sign “non-disclosure agreements” about the Pentagon’s budget process.
That requirement, Branstad said, “creates an unnecessarily restrictive process that fails to adequately include critical information from the states.”
“We wholeheartedly agree with you,” U.S. Representative Randy Forbes, the Virginia Republican who led the hearing, told Branstad. “These gag orders have just got to stop coming out of the Pentagon, because it serves no purpose.”
The National Guard Bureau did not return a call for comment.
Budget pressures could get even worse for the military next year, because Congress made military cuts part of its debt ceiling package last year. If federal lawmakers do not find a way to cut spending, the Pentagon’s budget will automatically be cut.
“I think it would exacerbate the situation,” Branstad told Stateline. “I’m real concerned about defense taking a disproportionate reduction in the budget.”
When it came to this year’s Air Guard cuts, Branstad had a sympathetic audience at the hearing. U.S. Representative Tim Griffin, an Arkansas Republican, says the state’s members of Congress could not get any facts or analysis that justified moving aircraft from an Arkansas base.
“We have met with everybody there is to meet with, pretty much, except the president,” Griffin said. “You would think decisions like this, involving … billions and billions of dollars would involve at least a memo.”
The budget dispute is just the latest episode of tension between governors and the Pentagon over the Guard that started to build with the Pentagon’s heavy reliance on Guard forces to fight wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“Historically, the Pentagon … looked at the National Guard as the step-sister,” Branstad said, but recently that has started to change. Congress made the head of the National Guard a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Obama created the Governors Council to stress the importance of the Guard.
“All of this is good,” Branstad said. “But we need to see in reality a following through of what the intentions were, with the Guard as full partners.”

It transfers to the case, the PSU (fan goes up and so does the noise) and the HDs (4 of them, reaching 45-50oC). So i am considering the GD-08 as it seems to have better cooling capacity.
So what sort of MB and HD temperature are you seeing with this case?
Thanks for any info!
Your welcome. I am in the middle of putting together a Case Club thread for the Grandia cases here on the forums. I might just possibly use this thread with the help of the mods to turn it into that.
Right now, everything stays very cool in this case. I have the 2 120mm fans upfront pulling air in. I have the 2 rear 80mm fans in the back pulling air out and on the side you can see I modified the optical drive cage so I can fit in the H60 water cooler for my CPU. That air pulls in too. If you take a look on the some of these pics, there is an exhaust vent towards the top of the case. I plan on mounting either another 2 80mm fans there or there is a PCI like slot above it but the fans I have found I've read are pretty bad. With zip ties, I might add those fans to the top with rubber mounts to exhaust.
I am also looking at 2 -120mm x 12mm fans to place one under the drive cage that I cut since the radiator is there and a regular 120mm won't fit there. On the left of the rad, I can't fit a reg 120mm so I need to place the second one in there.
I really like this case a lot and wish that Silverstone would of placed the optical drive to the right.
I had a 660 Ti FTW Sig 2 in this case for a week and the temps never got above 57 degrees. I have a EVGA GTX770 ACX being delivered today since I returned the 660 Ti last week since I only had it for 2 weeks. This card will be a true test in this case which might make me have to get those 80mm exhaust fans on the top of the case much quicker to expel heat.
My CPU due to the cooler when idle hovers from 29-34 degrees and when on load around 39-42 degrees. My CPU keeps pretty cool, I think the key there was getting the water cooler in here even though I had to modify the optical drive cage. I can always add an external DVD drive if need be. Personally, I would go with the GD08 from Newegg or Amazon since they have it on sale for $139 unless you find it cheaper elsewhere. I had the Fractal Design Node 605 for a week, while that case was excellent, it was smaller than the GD08.
