The milestone marks the start of Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee year when Britons and her subjects around the world will celebrate and reflect on her decades of public service. However, Princess Elizabeth, as she was then known, was far from the first to know of the momentous moment. The 95-year-old Monarch discovered she was to become queen while abroad with husband Prince Philip in Kenya and unreachable to Buckingham Palace....

Yet Staal didn’t even match that clip in the Big Apple, tallying three goals and three assists in 20 regular-season contests before going pointless in five postseason tilts. So when the Wild signed him to a three-year, $10.5 million deal following that lackluster playoff run with the Blueshirts, it was easy to see Minnesota feeling pangs of regret down the road. On the other hand, there was reason to believe Staal, despite being on the wrong side of 30, wasn’t simply declining with age....

Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia businesswoman, is all but guaranteed to win a House seat this November after defeating her primary opponent, John Cowan, by 15 points in a runoff on Tuesday. Her district is ruby red, which means that Democrat Kevin Van Ausdal faces an extremely uphill battle to defeat her this November. Greene’s path to Congress remains solid despite the fact that videos resurfaced in June showed her expressing racist, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim views....

Trump will be participating in the Saudi-backed start-up tour’s pro-am tournament set to be played on Thursday. He will be paired with his son, Eric, and LIV Golf pros Dustin Johnson and Bryson DeChambeau. The pro-am isn’t scheduled to be broadcast anywhere, nor will it be played in front of spectators. Nonetheless, many will be wondering just how well the 45th U.S. president will do playing one of his 16 courses....

Linsanity is one of those moments. Jeremy Lin wasn’t expected to do big things in the NBA. Following four seasons at Harvard, he failed to hear his name called in the 2010 NBA Draft. He went on to sign a partially guaranteed deal with the Warriors but didn’t see the court much in his rookie season. After being waived by both the Warriors and Rockets ahead of his sophomore season, Lin found his way onto a Knicks team in desperate need of another guard....

That criticism has yet to subside. Some nine months into the Bush presidency, the debate over the ruling among legal scholars goes on. Many of the country’s most respected legal minds have weighed in on Bush v. Gore. The critics contend the court should never have taken the case in the first place. It was a matter of state law, and should be left to state courts, as is the tradition, they argue....

Facebook recently said its new augmented reality interface would use wristbands that translate neural signals into actions. It’s part of a growing number of attempts to allow computers to understand the brain, experts say. “The most exciting applications, in my opinion, are for the medical field and space exploration,” Jose Morey, a former advisor to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, said in an email interview....

But weather forecasting didn’t start 40 years ago with advanced computers. Hundreds of years ago, people used a variety of manual methods and calculations to predict the weather, from observing the sky for tell-tale signs of a storm to referring back to old weather reports—and they were fairly accurate. But now, weather prediction is all digitized, which begs the question: how do computers predict the weather? Computing Before Computers Before high-speed communication devices, like the telegraph and the telephone, it was near impossible to get up-to-date weather data for other locations....

That’s audacious and humiliating. And it’s no joke when it hits. Such attacks, if successful, stall industrial operations and negatively affect the people that depend on the victimized industry. Worse, it could cripple a nation economically. But how do cyber attacks on pipelines and other industrial installations work? Let’s dig in. Why Cyberattacks Happen to Industrial Installations For most of us, it doesn’t make sense how and why anyone would get the chance to launch a digitally orchestrated cyberattack against a mechanically operated industrial plant....

The problem is that XP Professional requires activation; you get a 30 period in which to do so. Both telephone and Internet activation are rejected. Windows XP mode was made for windows 7 but I run windows 8.1, which may be why things don’t match. The April 18 page suggests making a snapshot of your fully set up system on day one and then just restore that snapshot later in the 30 day period....

While I had Windows XP, there was an option in the mouse settings to disable scrolling with the wheel, but I have not found a similar option in Windows 7. I tried searching the internet but I couldn’t find an answer. So is there a way to disable scrolling with the mouse wheel?

When upgrading an older system, RAM and storage are two of the most obvious parts you can change. Since RAM usually provides a more noticeable performance boost, let’s focus on finding the correct RAM for your motherboard. Laptop (SODIMM) and Desktop (DIMM) RAM When finding compatible RAM for your computer, one of the first things to consider is whether it’s a laptop or a desktop computer. Both types do have the same essential parts: a CPU, GPU, and RAM....

The British socialite was found hiding out in a secluded New Hampshire property in July and charged with trafficking offences and perjury. Prosecutors claim she tried to flee during the raid. The FBI found her cell phone wrapped in tin foil, according to past court filings. However, the DIY anti-surveillance strategy appears not to have worked as agents were able to trace her through a phone she bought in the name “G Max,” The Daily Beast reported....
