On June 17, 2006, Carson Palmer will host the first annual Carson Palmer Cornhole Classic presented by Cincinnati Bell and Huntington Bank to benefit his new charity partner, Lighthouse Youth Services.

The event begins at 2:00 p.m. on the Cincinnati Bengals practice field. Sponsors and guests will be treated to a unique event complete with amazing food and beverage, activities for all ages, prizes and giveaways, live entertainment by The Mukrackers and the opportunity to play cornhole against Carson?s teammates and other NFL friends.

Palmer developed the idea for the event soon after being introduced to the sport of cornhole while living in Cincinnati. ?Shae and I got hooked on playing cornhole right after we moved out here. We have wanted to do an event that incorporates the sport for the past few years so we are excited that it?s finally going to happen,? said Palmer.

Over the past few years, Palmer has become passionate about using his success on the field to help abused and abandoned children. Lighthouse Youth Services is an agency that mirrors Palmer?s mission to help children who are not fortunate enough to receive the kind of upbringing his family provided.

?We are honored to be working with the Lighthouse Youth Services on behalf of the children. The people who work at Lighthouse are the true heroes and this is a great opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of the children,? said Palmer.

Palmer hopes the community will show Lighthouse the same compassion and support they?ve shown him through being a part of the Carson Palmer Cornhole Classic.

?I hope the Cincinnati community will support the children at Lighthouse the way they have supported me over the past few months. This is going to be an event unlike anything else in Cincinnati and we are so excited to share it with everyone. We will have a great time together while raising money for the children,? said Palmer.

Packages and sponsorships for the Carson Palmer Cornhole Classic start at $2,500. For more information, contact Natalie Schwab with Lighthouse at 513-487-7109.

      Why is this crap even in the OS

      Is this really worth it at double the price of the original? I mean you can probably get a mini PC with similar specs for less on Amazon that will do the exact same things.

      This is the Achilles heel of MS. On the one hand they try to be backwards compatible it's almost a full circle. On the other hand it's slowing down the implementation of new things and/or creating unwanted security issues that cannot really be resolved. And for some reason Apple can get away with 6 or so years of hardware/OS support, but when MS does it it's hell on earth? When Apple decided to move to their own processors, nobody was complaining about e-waste? So many Apple devices are going to be discarded soon because Apple is not supporting Intel hardware anymore. And software creators are already moved away from the Apple/Intel combo for the most part.

      - Run a good virus/thread scanner all the time and keep using the gray noodles up there. If it's basic emailing & web browsing it would be fine for Win10 to run a little longer. Most of the people who need more 'power' don't have PC's over 5 years old, so already on WIn11, or being able to switch.
    • You can upgrade to Gen5 NVMe SSD for cheap with this Crucial 2TB T710 deal

      You can upgrade to Gen5 NVMe SSD for cheap with this Crucial 2TB T710 deal by Sayan Sen If you’re hunting for 2 TB of ultra-fast storage under $300, the Crucial T710 NVMe SSD for $280 is a great deal worth considering (purchase link under the specs table below). This PCIe Gen5 ×4 M.2 2280 drive is said to deliver up to 14,500 MB/s sequential reads and 13,800 MB/s sequential writes, plus up to 2.2 million random read IOPS and 2.3 million random write IOPS throughputs, thus promising fast load times whether you’re gaming, editing 4K video, or working with large datasets. The T710 uses Micron G9 TLC NAND flash to maintain performance consistency during sustained workloads, and thus has an endurance rating of 1,200 TBW (terabytes written) for the 2TB model we are talking about here. Compared to last-generation PCIe Gen4 drives that top out around 7,400 MB/s reads and 7,000 MB/s writes, the T710 nearly doubles your bandwidth. In terms of features, it supports AES-256 encryption for data security and firmware optimized for DirectStorage to accelerate game asset streaming on Windows. The single-sided PCB is 0.15 inches tall without the optional heatsink and 0.83 inch with it, and therefore should fit into almost any modern motherboard slot. As you know, adding a decent heatspreader is compulsory for PCIe Gen5 SSDs or else they throttle under sustained loads. According to Crucial, it also draws about 25 percent less power than the T705 under similar workloads. The full technical specs of the Crucial T710 2TB are given below: Specification Interface NVMe (PCIe Gen5 ×4) Form Factor M.2 2280 (single-sided) Sequential Read (1 MB) 14,500 MB/s Sequential Write (1 MB) 13,700 MB/s Random Read (4 KB) 2.2 million IOPS Random Write (4 KB) 2.3 million IOPS Endurance 1,200 TBW MTBF 1.5 million hours Encryption AES-256 with TCG Opal 2.01+ DirectStorage Microsoft DirectStorage-optimized firmware Power Consumption Up to 8.25 W under load Dimensions (without heatsink) 3.15 × 0.87 × 0.15 in Dimensions (with heatsink) 3.15 × 0.92 × 0.83 in Get the Crucial T710 at the link below: Crucial T710 2TB Gen5 NVMe SSD, +Acronis Software - CT2000T710SSD8-01: $279.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
