Also on hand will be current and former National Football League players including Mark Duper, Sam Madison, Mike Rumpf and others. A list of current players will be announced as the date gets closer.

Pee-Wees Are Back!

8 on 8

Last Season we re-introduced the Pee-Wee Division to the Community with outstanding results.

The Pee-Wee Division is a bit different than our other Divisions.

This is more of a developmental/instructional Division. It’s played on a smaller field (40×80) with 12 players max per team with 8 on 8 on the field. The idea is to be able to teach each player different positions while having more fun. All this while actually preparing them to move up to Prep when ready. Each coach is instructed to rotate the kids into different positions, allowing them to get a feel for each one. The kids loved it, the Parents loved it and we’re looking for even bigger and better for 2011.

This Season we’re dropping the NFL look and going with top of the line NCAA replica uniforms.

While we’re at it… How can we go NCAA and not have a Heisman Trophy? So, this Season, a player from each Division will compete for the Heisman Trophy.

Some final thoughts…

As always… All games will be played at Buttonwood Park with no need to travel.

You can now register safely online with a partial payment plan

We outsourced the Concession Stand this Season, so you will no longer need to put in hours during the Season.

We upgraded to a different referees organization that has brought us to a much higher level of officiating that was greatly received in 2010 and we look forward to working with them again in 2011.

We were the original Skill & Thrills last Season and hope to top it this Season with the 2nd Annual Fastest Kid In Palm Beach County Race along with great giveaways.

COACHES WANTED

The WBFL is looking for both experienced and brand new coaches for the 2011 Season. Do you love Football? Have you ever wanted to coach but thought you didn’t know enough? Love working with kids? Sign up to be an assistant coach and well teach you the rest. Sign up online at http://www.westboyntonfootball.com

On Monday (June 18, 2012), Microsoft Corporation officially unveiled its first branded tablet at a much-hyped press event in Los Angeles. The new tablet line named Surface is said to compete directly with the Apple iPad. The introduction of Microsoft Surface came after a week of increasingly wild speculation with some predicting that Microsoft was unveiling its own TV, or collaborating with Barnes & Noble for some sort of tablet device.

Microsoft’s new Surface tablet looked good at its introduction; however, the producer left a lot of unanswered questions about pricing, arrival date and connectivity.

1. Microsoft Surface tablet review

There will be two Surface flavors: Surface with Windows RT and Surface with Windows 8 Pro. The Surface RT will have ARM processor and the Surface Pro processor will be Intel. 

The Microsoft Surface is light and comfortable to hold; the edges are sloped to give you a comfortable grip.

Both Surface tablets have a touch cover and a type cover.

Microsoft does not say whether the new Surface devices would have 3G/4G Connectivity or not.

Important feature

While the Surface Pro tablet is featured with a pen, which can be used like a real one, with digital ink annotating documents or filling in forms; the Windows RT Surface includes pre-installed Microsoft Home and Student 2013 RT.

Accessories

Built-in stand – 0.7mm thick (comes with any Surface)

Surface Type Cover – it’s a 0.5mm keyboard with actual keys and trackpad buttons.

Surface Touch Cover – (similar to Type Cover but slightly thinner) 0.3 mm thick full multitouch keyboard dock that also acts as a magnetic cover, with trackpad included.

Pen with Palm Book – a pen that magnetizes to the body of the Surface to offer digital ink support.

2. Price

Microsoft Corp. has not given the price detail for the new Surface tablet. However, it promises that both the Windows RT and Windows 8 Pro Surface tablets will be priced competitively with rival devices. Despite the fact that the organization doesn’t say which rival devices, we expect the price to be similar to high-end Android tablets or the Ipad.

3. Release date

The detail about Microsoft Surface’s release is still kept under wraps. In fact, Surface RT is due to come out during the general release of Windows 8, which is expected in “this fall”. It means that Surface RT may be on the market around October, 2012. The Surface Pro is scheduled for its release about three months later, meaning in early 2013.

If you have Windows 7 and have been playing with it for a while then you might have noticed that most of its control options are somewhat hidden. If you are every glue user then you might not have the needed for a more robust set of controls but if you are a power user or someone who likes to customize the way the operating system works then this is for you.

Even though Redmond has not officially made a comment about how or why this setting came to be is great to know that you are able to access all sorts of settings from one place, think of it as a supercharged control panel where you can change everything, from the way your mouse looks all the way to creating hard drive partitions and so on.

Enabling GodMode

If you are ready to take a step down the rabbit hole then this is how you enable GodMode in your window seven machine:

1. First navigate to a folder of your choosing such as my documents or the root drive and then create a folder, make sure you create the folder in a place that you can access it easily, having this handy tool buried within a deep folder on your hard drive will not do you any good. Creating this folder in the desktop is also a good idea.

2. Rename the folder you just created with the following string of text: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

3. Once you have renamed the folder you will notice that the icon will no longer be yellow but rather blue which emulates a weight that the control panel shortcut looks. If you see that the folder you just created has changed its icon and that the string of text you just pasted has changed into just “GodMode” then you are ready to roll.

Some of the sections that you will notice within GodMode are: the action Center, administrative tools, autoplay, devices and printers, display, ease of access center, power options, programs and features, recovery, region and language, sound, speech recognition, sync Center, system, troll shooting, user accounts, Windows card space and many more.

So if you think that Windows 7 is pretty good right out of the box and you may not have many things to change within the operating system but if you want to change some of the interface or environmental variables then this is a very fast window seven trick that you have to check out.

If you are not the Windows savvy person but still want to check this great option and make sure to go online and do a little bit of research about the setting you are about to modify, that way if you happen to break something you can always refer to the very same section where you made the modifications and go back to its previous state.
