NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB and AMD Radeon HD 6950 1GB Review
GeForce GTX 560 Ti GPU
It seems that no matter what month it is, you can be sure of a graphics card release is right around the corner. While a bit over dramatic, we have another set of cards being launched this morning in direct competition with each other that target the lucrative ~$249 price range.
When NVIDIA released the GTX 460 graphics cards back in July of 2010 it addressed this same price segment that was left virtually untouched by AMD's Radeon series. Since then the GTX 460 has been the "go to" graphics cards for many of our readers and editors and anytime someone asks "Which GPU should I get?" it was almost a default answer to recommend it. It offered a nearly perfect balance of performance, efficiency and price and it wasn't until months later and several price drops by AMD that the battle really evened out with the release of the HD 6000 series.
NVIDIA is hoping to do the same thing today with the release of the GeForce GTX 560 Ti - yes the Titanium branding is making a comeback.
The GTX 560 Ti GPU - GF114
The new GTX 560 Ti is based on the GF114 GPU and is essentially the same core as the GF104 when looked at under that magical "diagram" microscope.
Considering that we have a lot of users still running on the 8800 series of cards (and likely, the very similar 9800-series too) this NVIDIA table shows what kind of raw performance benefits a user that chooses to move to the new GTX 560 Ti will see. There are more than three times the number of processing cores / shaders and that should equal, coupled with the other specs, a very noticeable increases in frame rates on modern games.
Dear sir,
Here i confused in buying my new graphic card I have three choices 1) NVIDIA GTX 560 Ti ,2) NVIDIA GTX 560 and NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti .
Kindly suggest me which is better for me.
my system configuration are as follows
AMD ATHOLAN 2x 250 3.mhgz
4 GB ram ddr3 Kingston gaming raM

Reporter Barton Gellman Explains Why It's Extremely Unlikely The Russians Or Chinese Have Snowden's Documents
from the he-knows-what-he's-doing dept
"[Snowden] gave these documents, ultimately, to only three journalists. What he said he wanted was for us to use our own judgment and to make sure that his bias was kept out of it so that we could make our own judgment about what was newsworthy and important for the public to know. And he said we should also consider how to avoid harm.Elsewhere in the discussion, he goes further:
"Now, in case anyone doubts his intentions, let's consider what he could've done. If Chelsea [aka Bradley] Manning was able to exfiltrate and send to WikiLeaks and publish in whole half a million U.S. government documents, Edward Snowden — who is far, far more capable [and] had far greater access, certainly knows how to transmit documents — he could've sent them to WikiLeaks. He could've set up and mirrored around the Internet in a way that could not have been taken down. All of the documents could be public right now and they're not. ... He told us not to do it."
Writing an editorial about the risk that Snowden... or that implies that Snowden is about to or may already have handed over all of his information to Wikileaks or to the Russians is entirely without evidence. It is pure speculation. There is strong evidence, now three months after his first disclosures, and more than three months after he started giving information to journalists, that he does not intend to make the whole pile public. He could have done it on the first day. He could have done it months before I ever heard of him.He then goes on to explain why it's incredibly unlikely that Snowden gave the documents to the Russians or the Chinese, despite many assuming that to be the case.
As far as the speculation that the Chinese or Russian governments have obtained access to this information -- that they have the whole pile, so that this alleged judiciousness by the journalists is pointless -- that is not only speculative, I think I have very strong evidence that it is not the case. I know how Snowden operates. I've disclosed some of it. I have not disclosed all of it -- just because he has unmasked himself doesn't mean that there are no confidences left in the relationship.Terry Gross then asks about the claim by some that it's hypocritical of Snowden to talk up freedoms and openness... and then run to China and end up getting (temporary) asylum in Russia. Gellman explains, as we and others have in the past, how much of that is due to necessity, in part because of the US government's own bumbling response. But he also notes something more interesting and a bit deeper about Snowden's intent:
He is exceptionally skilled at digital self-defense. In fact, one of his jobs, while he was at the NSA, and while he was employed by the CIA, was to teach courses to US national security officials about how to operate in a high-threat digital environment even on untrusted hardware -- essentially how you do secret business overseas without being surveilled by the other side.
I believe that he has rendered himself incapable of opening the archive while in Russia. That is to say, it's not only that he doesn't have the key anymore. It's that there's nothing for the key to open any more. It's that he has rendered the encrypted information literally impossible to open with what he has in his possession. He has told a former Senator in a letter that even under torture he couldn't give the information to the Russians. And that's not a boast about his alleged ability to withstand torture. That is a statement of fact about his capabilities. He simply can't open it. And that means that the Russians can't get it.
I've not heard any statement from Snowden that talks about Russia as some bastion of freedom. He has very practical reasons for being there. I mean, if he flies to some western democracy, he's going to be extradited. He doesn't want to be. It's not, purely, a question of self-preservation, although everyone has those motives. He said early on that he would like not only to expose behavior that he thinks is wrong and dangerous to American democracy, but that he also wanted to set a new kind of model for whistleblowing.Again, some of these answers we've heard or discussed before, including Snowden's letter to former Senator Gordon Humphrey about why the Russians could never get the information out of him. While some people bizarrely assumed this meant he thought he could resist torture, I think most people realized this meant he no longer had access to the documents himself, and thus couldn't give them up.
There has never been someone who came out and raised his hand and said "I did it." And there is, for practical purposes, never been someone who did this without having his life pretty much destroyed for a period of time or for a very long time. And he wanted to say "it is possible -- and here's how -- to make public disclosures that you're not authorized to make, and live a full and normal life afterwards." Not necessarily in the United States, but you can start a debate -- that many many people regard as a legitimate debate -- and find refuge somewhere. He obviously did not intend to go to Russia, he told me his first choice, if he had a choice, was Iceland, which is a very freedom protective society. He's in Russia because he got stuck there. In fact, Russian President Putin said that the United States made an elementary error of tradecraft in withdrawing his passport at the moment he was in transit to Russia. The United States actually trapped him there. He did not intend to stay.
There's a lot more in the interview, and I highly recommend taking a listen. If only NPR had an embed feature, I'd embed it here.

New Zealand's Next Top Model?
As dawn broke on the morning of the battle, Tarquin watched an eagle circle far above the encampment, and wondered if he would ever see his true love again.
"I know it seems rash," the King said, stroking his beard thoughtfully, "but I am tempted to send in the elephants regardless."
In other news, I have a date tonight (bleh). Am undecided on whether or not to remove the 'tache beforehand.

Also, FindSomeone is a festering, evil corporate scam... but I just reenabled my old profile on there in order to track down your profile and turn the tables on you! Thoughts:
1. Your profile lacks moustache pictures.
2. Everyone's grandmother is racist.

Fraser - how flattering! Stalkerish, but flattering. Findsomeone is indeed a festering evil corporate scam that, interestingly, you seem to be a part of. Also, my grandmother is way more racist than yours.

Brooke - small world! Glad my mustache made your day. It totally made mine as well.
Fraser - yes! my heavyweight grandmother. Were you tempted to marry a darkie just to piss her off? Also it's totally impolite to look up people on findsomeone & not send them a smile.

Ah, but you did post the record-breaking comment! For number of comments left on my blog. Except now I'm usurping. It.
Also, you rock because you always post the word verification :D

Sorely tempted - although honestly I'm not sure Gran would notice; she forgot my name last time I visited.
I actually can't send you a 'smile'. I tried and got a screen demanding I pay $29.90. Apparently once you've been a goldmember you can't go back to being a regularmember.

Yes. Also, you might give her a heart attack, and that would be embarrassing.

Repeat DWI Offender Back Behind Bars
WADENA (AP) — A Minnesota man with 27 drunken driving convictions is back behind bars just 40 days after leaving prison.
Danny Bettcher of New York Mills is being held at the Wadena County Jail for allegedly violating the terms of his release.
Sarah Berg of the Minnesota Department of Corrections says Bettcher was apprehended Saturday after he was allegedly seen in an establishment that serves alcohol, and was consuming alcohol. Both are violations of his parole.
Bettcher was released from prison on Oct. 29 after more than three years behind bars from previous alcohol-related offenses. The conditions of his release required him to stay sober.
A court hearing with the Minnesota Department of Corrections will take place on Tuesday.
The jail does not take messages for inmates.

Tuners: Supported Tuners
List of v4l tuners
For a full list of v4l supported tuners, see the CVS of the kernel documentation at Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.tuner
Basic instructions
If your tuner is not detected correctly (you get a black screen, let's say), try inserting the v4l kernel driver with a tuner parameter, for instance:
modprobe bttv tuner=41
This can also be added to the list of modules loaded on boot, sometimes /etc/modules:
saa7134 card=2 tuner=17 oss=1
If you still don't get a picture, ask for help on the v4l mailing list -- cf. searchable archives.
Tuner information
It's generally preferable to place comments on an individual card's tuner quirks in the card's own page, but cross-card tuner-specific information can usefully go here.
TCL tuners are manufactured in Huizhou in China. The English pages don't respond, but see the product list in Chinese.
The TCL2002MB-3 was first discovered on saa7134 cards and recently on cx88 Hauppauge WinTV GO2 models. All use tuner=37 with LG API, and so does TCL2002MI-3 (PAL-I/DK) (cf. discussion on spinics.net)
The F variants with radio use the older Philips API, for example tuner=5. The TCL2002MB-1 is supposed to be PAL-BG/DK capable. Don't know if the -3 could indicate any change here, but would not ecpect it, since we have recently also seen the TCL2002MI-3 on a cx88 Hauppauge (cf. discussion on spinics.net).
On the other hand the above site shows that we have to be aware of NTSC tuners with tda9885 and also tda9887 with radio like the MFMN05-4 and the full MultiEurope MFPE05-2 (some mismatches on the site).
The WinTV-Express card is a European or UK model, but the Hauppauge WinTV Go Plus looks very much like a PAL-B/G Express 44804 REV D148. Just like this cards, WinTV Express cards in Europe may all be MONO. No MSP34xx...
A new Hauppauge WinTV PCI-FM card is here (pci_ids: 14f1:8800, 14f1:8811), using the TCL MFPE05-02 PAL (DK BG I) FM tuner. It just implements mk3 API, you can use philips 1216me mk3 (tuner=38) instead.
Xceive 3028
We extremely need info about such tuner. This link: http://www.kaiser-linux.li/index.php/Linux_and_TV, gives some information ... we definitely need the reference driver from Xceive - a data sheet is not enough.
Looks like these three tuners are equal. They work for TV with tuner=37. The chips on the tuner are: Philips TDA9809 (FM demodulator) Philips TDA7040 (stereo decoder) Texas Instruments SN761677 (Tv/Vcr tuner)

New Zealand v Australia, The Rugby Championship
Beale named on Wallabies' bench
ESPN Staff
August 24, 2012
Kurtley Beale had a torrid time against New Zealand last weekend © PA Photos
Australia boss Robbie Deans has confirmed his bench for Saturday's clash against New Zealand with Kurtley Beale included.
Beale was dropped from the starting XV after a poor performance in the Wallabies' 27-19 loss to the All Blacks last weekend but he has been included on the bench. Deans said Beale was not a "bundle of confidence" in the defeat to New Zealand and brought in Drew Mitchell with Adam Ashley-Cooper switching to fullback.
Flanker Liam Gill is also included and if he gets the nod from the bench then he will make his debut for the Wallabies.
Australia: Adam Ashley-Cooper, Drew Mitchell, Rob Horne, Berrick Barnes, Digby Ioane, Quade Cooper, Will Genia (captain); Benn Robinson, Stephen Moore, Ben Alexander, Sitaleki Timani, Nathan Sharpe, Dave Dennis, Michael Hooper, Scott Higginbotham
Replacements: Saia Fainga'a, James Slipper, Radike Samo, Liam Gill, Nick Phipps, Anthony Fainga'a, Kurtley Beale

Acne Studios is a Stockholm based fashion house, founded in 1996 by Creative Director Jonny Johansson with an 'Ambition to Create Novel Expressions'. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to fashion, the lifestyle brand finds its inspiration in photography, art, architecture and contemporary culture – creating subtly luxurious ready-to-wear pieces with an Acne emphasis on tailoring and an eclectic use of custom developed materials.
Inspired by English youth archetypes, Jonny Johansson's anglophilic AW15 collection clashes 50's Teddy Boy with football hooligan. Combining English tailored pieces with skinhead favourite- the donkey jacket, the collection explores 'what it means to feel masculine'. Slogan scarves juxtaposed the machismo collection reading phrases like 'Radical Feminist' and 'Woman Power' reflecting today's societal gender clashing. Taking this idea further, sporty patterned leggings were seen layered under tailored shorts, elongated sweaters were paired with tailored Crombie coats and pink cashmeres were coupled with checked shirts. Silhouettes switched from athletic to sharp and structured with double breasted jackets, long coats and grey suiting pants finished with textured and contrasting colour pockets. In essence, the collection harkened classic menswear and English tailoring but subverted traditionalism with androgynous, contemporary pieces charged with political statement.

About me: My name really is Charlotte. I'm an archaeologist by day, president of the Friends of a small New England library by night, and an avid reader of fantasy and science fiction (and 20th-century British girls' books, but I don't blog about them much). I moved to Rhode Island for grad school many years ago, and ended up marrying an Irish piper/ethnomusicologist, owning an old house that (still) needs lots of work, and having two boys (now 14 and 17). To fill my copious free time, I started this blog more than ten years ago.
Here is a picture of me. The sparkly-ness is tongue in cheek.
About my blog: I began blogging on February 1st, 2007. Since then, I've narrowed the focus of my blog from children's books in general to fantasy and science fiction books for kids and teenagers. That being said, I will occasionally review books that aren't sci fi/fantasy if they catch my fancy, so you'll find here a smattering of children's non-fiction and picture books (especially those that have fantasy elements). I'm particularly interested in time travel books and multicultural sci fi/fantasy for kids, and you can find lists of all my reviews in those sub-genres up at the top of the blog.
I'm an active member of Kidlitosphere, and am the coordinator of middle grade speculative fiction category of Cybils Awards panelist. I only occasionally participate in blog tours, or interview authors, but I'm open to doing both if the book or the author is a good fit for my blog.
Every Sunday I round-up all the blog posts I can find pertaining to middle grade (ages 9-12 ish) sci fi/fantasy--please feel free to email me at any time during the week if you have a link for me!
My review policies: I welcome middle grade and young adult science fiction and fantasy books for review. I read every book I receive (although not to the end, if I'm not liking it), but I can't promise to review every book I am sent. I generally won't review books don't work for me, so if you have sent me a book and I haven't written a review, that would be why. That being said, I reserve the right to write mixed reviews, or even negative reviews.
I firmly believe that self-published and small press books can be excellent, and so I might accept them if offered (it depends on whether the book's description piques my interest, and how many books are already in my stack--at the moment, my stack is pretty large, so I'm being very selective--right now, I'm accepting very few requests. Sorry). And again, I generally won't review books I didn't like, so even if I accept your self-published book, you might never see me posting about it.
I'm afraid I can't accept ebooks for review at this time, so please don't offer them to me!
The majority of the review copies of finished books I receive (unless I love a book so very much I have to keep it) are passed on to my local public library. Many books end up in Little Free Libraries in Providence, some Middle grade ARCs are passed on to my son's friends, and the bulk of the YA ARCs end up as summer reading prizes at the library.
Feel free to contact me at email@example.com.

Marine Killed While Traveling to Surprise Younger Brother
FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — A Colorado Marine killed in a crash in central Utah last week was on his way home to surprise his little brother on the first day of school.
Twenty-year-old Lance Cpl. Brennan Ching of Fort Collins, Colorado, died Friday in a rollover crash near Salina, Utah. He was traveling with a fellow Marine from Las Flores, California. The second Marine survived and was taken to a hospital.
The Coloradoan (http://noconow.co/1sUHo4N ) reports that Ching planned to take 8-year-old Alex Vicary to his first day of second grade. Mother Sue Vicary says Alex talked about his older brother every day and came up with different wishes to try to bring him home.
The newspaper published a story about Ching coming home to surprise Alex last March after the boy sent a letter to the Easter bunny.

Turkey - Epicenter Of
Stephen Lendman
| For over two weeks, daily anti-government protests rocked Turkey. Police
attacked peaceful demonstrators intermittently. They've done so brutally.
Turkey's notorious for police state viciousness.
It's a democracy in name only. Prime Minister Erdogan is thuggish, authoritarian, hardline and despotic.
Turkey's one of 28 NATO countries. Erdogan partners with Washington's imperial wars. He's unapologetic about neoliberal harshness. More on that below.
He's been prime minister for over 10 years. Why Turks put up with him they'll have to explain. Growing opposition demands he resign. New elections are wanted. Erdogan refuses to call them. If protests continue and grow, parliament may overrule him.
On June 11, Russia Today headlined "Turkish police oust Taksim protesters with tear gas as Erdogan cheers removal of 'rags,' " saying:
"Hundreds of Turkish police clashed with protesters in Istanbul." Doing so followed removal of barricades and banners. Erdogan's tactics are polarizing. He called peaceful demonstrators thugs, looters, revolutionaries, marauders and extremists.
RT correspondent Ashraf El Sabbagh said "(t)here are serious clashes in the small streets surrounding (Taksim). They are running after each other tossing stones, bottles and smoke grenades. It's a meat grinder in there."
On June 12, RT headlined "Istanbul warzone: Thousands of protesters try to reclaim Taksim Square," saying:
Riot police attacked protesters viciously. Clashes were fierce. "Thick smoke blankets the square. Turkish police are driving thousands into narrow side streets."
Bystanders are attacked. Tear gas, rubber bullets, pepper spray, and water cannons target indiscriminately. A man in a wheelchair was struck. British journalist Neil Clark said "(i)f you're in NATO, you can get away with murder."
America, Britain, France, and most other NATO countries operate like Turkey. Dissent is verboten. Democracy exists in name only. Some NATO members are worse than others. America's by far the worst.
Turkish protests appear to have legs. The more brutality Erdogan orders, the larger crowds grow. Growing popular sentiment opposes him. On June 11, dozens of Turkish lawyers joined protesters. They came to defend those arrested.
Police attacked them viciously. They did so in front of Caglayan Courthouse. Witnesses called what happened brutal. Lawyer Fatma Elif Koru explained, saying:
"We were just gathering to make a press statement about Gezi Park and then the police attacked. It was very brutal. Now 49 lawyer friends are in custody and many are injured."
"They even kicked their heads. The lawyers were on the ground. They were hitting us they were pushing. They built a circle around us and then they attacked."
On June 11, hundreds of police encircled Taksim Square. They fired rubber bullets and tear gas. They ripped down banners calling for Erdogan's resignation.
Later on Tuesday, dozens more lawyers were arrested. Since protests began, thousands were arrested. Thousands more were injured.
On June 12, brutal attacks continued. More arrests followed. Erdogan's uncompromising. He announced an "end to tolerance." None existed before his pronouncement.
He dismissively ignores criticism. He governs by what he says goes. "If you call this roughness," he said, "I'm sorry, but this Tayyip Erdogan will not change."
His comment replicated Margaret Thatcher once saying "The lady's not for turning." Saying it defined her ideological harshness.
She was unapologetic. She was unforgiving. She was unprincipled. She was despised for good reason. Millions of Brits suffered from the neoliberal flimflam she endorsed.
Erdogan matches her and more. He's way over-the-top. He reflects power politics' dark side. He doesn't know when to quit. He called peaceful demonstrators "a handful of plunderers."
They're "manipulated" to protest, he claims. He won't let them dictate policy, he said. They're the "greatest threat to the society."
"For those who want to continue with the incidents," he said, (i)ts over. As of now, we have no tolerance for them. Not only will we end the actions, we will be at the necks of the provocateurs and terrorists and no one will get away with it. I am sorry, but Gezi Park is for taking promenades, not for occupation."
A previous article called Turkey more police state than democracy. Press freedom is compromised. Censorship is standard practice. Dissent is verboten. Challenging government authority is called terrorism.
No country imprisons more journalists than Turkey. Television channels largely ignored protests. A bureau chief was arrested for airing what authorities wanted suppressed.
On June 11, TV channels broadcast a staged incident. Viewers saw half a dozen "demonstrators" throw molotov cocktails at police. They advanced on police lines provocatively.
They held a flag of a fringe left-wing party. It was a thinly veiled stunt. It's commonly used during protests. America and other Western countries feature them. Doing so lets authorities claim peaceful demonstrators are violent.
So-called protesters were undercover cops. Their mock attack was staged. Expect more like it if protests continue. Expect greater violence ahead. It's already brutal and increasing.
Instead of engaging protesters responsibly, Erdogan wants them crushed. Thousands have been arrested and/or injured. Despots operate this way.
Can Oz is an Istanbul publisher. His London Guardian op-ed headlined "I can never trust the Turkish police and government again." Why before he'll have to explain.
Longstanding Turkish policy is brutal. Now it's more public, widespread and visible.
"For years I did not speak up enough, but no more," said Oz. "I could lose everything, but I cannot live a dishonorable life any longer."
"I am scared. With every speech that prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan gives, I feel the hatred and disgust against me and young people of my generation increase."
"All we are after is a bit of freedom, a bit of space to live and a few trees."
"(O)ver the past few days, I have witnessed so many lies from the police and government that I don't think I can ever trust them again. I have spent days with the protesters - withstanding another gas attack, cheering, singing chants and sharing food in the park - and I haven't encountered any signs of weapons or violence on their behalf."
Oz said he received hate mail and death threats. Participating in "passive resistance" leaves him vulnerable.
For years he feared expressing his views publicly. He failed to criticize political wrongdoing he witnessed.
He'll no longer stay silent, he said. He listed five demands he and other protesters want:
(1) They want Gezi Park left unchanged.
(2) They want arrested protesters released.
(3) They want police brutality ended. They want responsible officials prosecuted.
(4) They want the right to protest publicly.
(5) They want Erdogan-ordered violence stopped. They want him held accountable for his actions.
Oz is a large Turkish publisher. He's unaffected by neoliberal harshness. Most Turks want relief. Erdogan spurns popular interests. He's beholden solely to wealth, power and privilege.
Turkish workers and youths demand social justice. Young ones are especially outraged. Their living standards significantly eroded.
They've tasted neoliberal harshness far too long. They know nothing else. Their ability to make ends meet troubles them. Their futures are seriously compromised. They want something better. They deserve it. Perhaps now's their chance for change.
Turkey's economic model features capitalism's dark side. It includes economic freedom as a be-all-and-end-all, unrestrained profit-making, privatizations, cheap labor, deregulation, corporate-friendly tax cuts, marginalized worker rights, and speculative capital inflows.
Economic conditions are inherently unstable. Turkey suffers rolling recessions, crisis conditions, and fragile largely jobless recoveries. It's increasingly dependent on imports of resources and capital goods.
Youth unemployment tops 22%. It's rising. It's socially and economically unstable. It's untenable. It's fuel for public rage.
When well-connected private debtors are troubled or go bankrupt, their losses are socialized. Turkey's next crisis is certain. It's only a matter of when.
Ordinary people are hardest hit. Youths most of all. Growing numbers have no viable futures. Profits matter more than public needs. Insecurity haunts an entire generation.
Turkish neoliberalism replicates what's ongoing throughout Europe, America, Israel and elsewhere. Anger swells up and explodes.
The common thread is democracy in name only, inequality, political corruption, unemployment, growing poverty, insecurity, and corporate priorities over social justice.
Turkey has a long history of rebellion. Turks know what's going on in troubled EU countries. They've seen it throughout the Middle East.
People only take so much before reacting. Protesting is fashionable to do. It's unifying and energizing. It remains to be seen where things go.
Ban Ki-moon reacted as expected. He urged "calm" and "dialogue." He ignored police brutality. It didn't surprise. He fronts for power. He's mindless of public needs.
He turns a blind eye to horrendous imperial crimes. He's secretary-general because Washington installed him. White House spokesman Jay Carney also urged both sides to show restraint.
Washington supports its ally. Police brutality is commonplace in America. Thuggish cops attack peaceful protesters violently. It's common practice. It replicates what's ongoing in Turkey.
America's a democracy in name only. Imperial and corporate priorities alone matter. It's true throughout Europe, Israel and Turkey.
Unchallenged power matters most. Erdogan matches the worst of a bad lot. Turks see him for what he is. Tinpot despots can't hide.
Turkey's military remains a wild card. Maybe it'll intervene. It's done it before. It may again. If not generals, perhaps party leaders or political opposition.
Erdogan remains defiant. He looks like damaged goods. He's vulnerable if internal interests react. He heads Turkey's Justice and Development Party (AKP). It may decide to cut its losses and replace him.

OnlySP: Everyone knows of Halo, be you an Xbox player, a PlayStation fan, a PC gamer or a Nintendo enthusiast. Whether gamers like it or not, Halo is one of the most influential franchises in the history of gaming, selling off millions of copies world-wide. It was also responsible for saving the first Xbox from near death, an important feat in the industry.
That's how I felt as well while playing Halo 4. Just felt like something was missing, and it kinda downgraded the experience for me. Great game all around, just didn't get that feeling while playing it like I still do playing the original Halo games. Hell, I still go back and play those games just to hear the soundtrack while I'm playing.
Halo 4 sounded more like a Hollywood movie, however there were some parts that sounded Halo like but not alot, even the main theme of Halo (Chiefs theme) was only added a little bit in one of the songs.
Assassins Creed 3 had that problem, it sounded too different and sounded like a Hollywood blockbuster
I always felt some of the old music had a little bit of an Irish jig to them.
2.17 onwards is the best.....I always remember trying to do the last mission to go with the music, like I just get the warthog on board as soon as the music hits it's epic finale.
I kind of agree, and then I disagree.
Halo 4 was the start of a new trilogy and thus a new identity would be needed for the music. I will miss Marty's music, but I think Neil Davidge & Kazuma Jinnouchi have done a great job so far, especially with the allusions to the original Halo trilogy music in the OST.
Sacrifice, from the 2nd part of the Halo 4 OST has replaced 117 as my favorite, listen as the piece heads towards the end, reminded of anything? The brass and string work is absolutely FANTASTIC.
117 however is an incredible homage to Master Chief and I feel it is the true theme of Halo 4. Once again, the allusions to Marty's music are strong in this one.
And last but not least, Atonement, which is an interesting hail back to Marty's Halo 2 Menu Music - http://www.youtube.com/watc... which is arguably better, but you still get that sense of familiarity from it, especially with the tender Halo theme trail off on piano at the end of the song.
I'm a musician, and Halo music is what solidified my love for the series, sorry for the wall o text.
Racing through the Pillar of Autumn with the intense music in the background was epic.
I think its one of the best halos on 360. Its the only game i enjoy most right now and graphically beautiful.

From the Editor. Do you think poetry should have any place in the minister's reading? If you do not read poetry, you may think of it at worst as frivolous or at best as a luxury in which you cannot afford to indulge yourself. In this issue of OS I hope to convince you that the reading of good poetry is a great benefit to our ministries as ministers of the word, elders of the people, and ministers of mercy. Ah, you noticed that this introduction was the same as that for March only now I'm talking about poetry instead of fiction. We will cover a similar subject, but from a slightly different angle, tapping into our Presbyterian tradition of harnessing the best features of a literary interest in the service of the Lamb.
In this issue my editorial will focus on the place of poetry in the development of our oral skills as preachers. Pastor Roger Wagner reflects on the usefulness of poetry for the preacher in his piece: "The Preacher and the Poets: Some Thoughts."
We also have a surprise new featureactually it is a very old feature revivedEutychus II redivivus, a humorous reflection with a point. The pseudonym for the author of "From the Back Pew," Eutychus II, is chosen in memory of Eutychus I, Ed Clowney's pen name in the initial issues of Christianity Today (1956-1960). As Clowney explained in his later anthology, Eutychus (and His Pin): "Eutychus was summoned to his post as a symbol of Christians nodding, if not on the window-sill, at least in the back pew." Like his namesake, Eutychus II aims at "deflating ecclesiastical pretense, sham and present-day religiosity." This nom de plume will remain a cover for this ecclesiastical sleuthto maintain his anonymity, and thus his freedom to poke fun. Anyone who outs him will face congressional scrutiny.
Among the expanded features of this year's Ordained Servant will be many more book reviews, so that officers can stay abreast of books important to their task of serving the Lord's church. Due to the number that I intend to publish, they will not always be coordinated with the theme of each issue. Please note the newly posted "Submissions, Style Guide, and Citations" on the bottom of the page. Please note that the English Standard Version (ESV) is now the default translation for OS. Also worth noting is the Subscription information for those wondering what happened to the printed edition.
Blessings in the service of the Lamb,
Ordained Servant exists to help encourage, inform, and equip church officers for faithful, effective, and God glorifying ministry in the visible church of the Lord Jesus Christ. Its primary audience is ministers, elders and deacons of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, as well as interested officers from other Presbyterian and Reformed churches. Through high quality editorials, articles, and book reviews we will endeavor to stimulate clear thinking and the consistent practice of historic Presbyterianism.

Waitress Receives 7,000% Tip
When I dine out, I love to tip for the good food and the service. I usually tip between 15 and 20%. I know that tips are the lifeblood of income for those waiting tables and making sure we have everything we need.
Ce Ce Bruce knows what it is to give great service. She's a pro. However, she never expected to receive a jaw-dropping 7,000% tip! Ce Ce works at a Steak N' Shake in Indianapolis.
I love Steak N' Shake! They have wonderful shakes, malts and tons of different burgers. It's delicious. I became acquainted with Steak N' Shake when my daughter was a student at Notre Dame. A trip to South Bend, Indiana was never complete without a stop at Steak N' Shake.
As good as each visit was, it never compelled me to leave a tip like the one Ce Ce Bruce received. Ce Ce is a part-time student at Martin University in Indianapolis and has worked at Steak N' Shake for two years, according to NBC affiliate WTHR TV. Miss Jo, a regular customer was overly generous.
Miss Jo's tab came to just $5.97. Miss Jo tacked on an extra $446.00! Ce Ce did not want to take the tip. Miss Jo insisted that she take it.

At first life seems good in Pristina, the aptly named community Owen labors to develop. He has his workers subscribe to a number of morally admirable principles involving Clarity, Unity and Purpose. The pragmatic results of these principles involve the dignity of labor, a ban on alcohol, gambling and tobacco, and perhaps more surprisingly a proscription against "Superstition" (or "Artificial Knowledge"), which includes all religions. Owen's world revolves not just around his workers and the Pristina community but also around Victoria, his loving daughter, and Dolores, his not-quite-so-loving wife. Factor starts her narrative with the birth of Victoria and ends it 23 years later, at Owen's death. In between we learn of the difficulties in mining mercury, of Victoria's strong attachment both to her father and to the idea of Pristina, and of Dolores' dissatisfaction with domesticity; she much prefers the gentility of urban life to the physical and cultural isolation of the great Southwest. While Owen is for obvious reasons a strong proponent for the "magical" qualities of mercury, eventually the market price drops, and, much to Victoria's disgust, he finds himself forced to close one of the shafts and turn away from the principles Pristina was founded on.
Factor develops her characters in entertaining ways while building a novel of social realism.

Western Michigan University is a national research university enrolling nearly 24,000 students from across the United States and 100 other countries. Founded in 1903, it is a learner-centered, discovery-driven and globally engaged public university that stands out among America's more than 4,600 higher education institutions.
WMU combines the resources of a major research university with the personal attention and friendly atmosphere often found at a small college. Taking full advantage of that combination gives students the edge they need to succeed in graduate school, the workplace and life.
Students attending WMU enjoy top-notch programs, teachers, facilities and hands-on learning opportunities. They expect and receive one-on-one attention from senior-level faculty members and quickly find that advisors, career specialists, mentors and tutors are within easy reach. In addition, most classes are relatively small in size and taught by the University's full-time professors.
The University offers 147 bachelor's, 73 master's and 30 doctoral programs, along with one program leading to the specialist degree and several others that lead to graduate-level certificates. These programs are offered through seven degree-granting colleges: Arts and Sciences, Aviation, Education and Human Development, Engineering and Applied Sciences, Fine Arts, Haworth College of Business, and Health and Human Services.
Many programs rank among the top of their kind in the country, giving WMU a national or international reputation as one of the best places to study in fields as varied as aviation flight science, creative writing, engineering management technology, evaluation, experimental atomic physics, geology, integrated supply management, jazz studies, medieval studies, occupational therapy, paper engineering, psychology, sales and business marketing, and speech pathology.
Faculty members have been trained at the world's leading universities and bring a global perspective to the classroom. A majority of these scholars have a passion for research as well as teaching. They not only share their cutting-edge work in the classroom, but also welcome undergraduate and graduate students alike into their research laboratories and creative studios.
WMU creates a learning environment that is not only challenging, but also supportive and inclusive. A wide range of resources and services focus on academic and career success, with several dedicated to meeting the special needs of such select groups as first-year students, transfer students, military veterans and youths who have aged out of the foster care system.
The University's robust academic environment is bolstered by some of the best instructional and cultural facilities in the Midwest, and ongoing improvements are reshaping the housing and dining system so it is more in tune with the needs of today's students. Meanwhile, the University consistently earns national awards for sustainability as well as praise for the beauty of its park-like campus.
Among the University's notable facilities are a world-class aviation campus; a state-of-the-art science complex; new buildings devoted to education, chemistry and the visual arts; a high-tech home for health and human services programs; a cutting-edge engineering campus that includes the thriving Business Technology and Research Park; a large, well-equipped student recreation center; and one of the nation's top 10 theatres.
Students come to WMU from around the world, with representatives of minority groups making up 21 percent of the student body and international students 8 percent. They enjoy a vibrant campus atmosphere featuring nearly 400 student organizations, including fraternities and sororities, professional associations, faith-based groups, club sports and hobby groups. The University also provides acclaimed arts programs, a lively cultural calendar, and numerous intramural, health and fitness programs.
Innovation, engagement with the communities it serves, and outreach to enhance economic development are University hallmarks. For instance, the aviation campus and Business Technology and Research Park are components of Michigan's economic development zones, while the centers for Biological Imaging and for Biosciences Research and Commercialization contribute to the state's life sciences business sector.
Most recently, WMU and local philanthropists joined with Kalamazoo's two world-class teaching hospitals to develop the WMU Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, which began enrolling students in fall 2014 and is stimulating economic growth as well as life sciences innovation in the region and state. Also in 2014, the University affiliated with the most diverse private law school in the United States to form the WMU Thomas M. Cooley Law School.
During recent years, the University has helped to launch more than 30 startup companies through collaborative life science research and commercialization activities and has given students unprecedented opportunities to start their own businesses. In addition, it supports scores of research centers and public-service clinics that work in tandem with partners around the state and nation to make new discoveries and improve the health and well-being of the citizenry.
WMU also extends its reach by offering quality academic and professional development programs online and at eight regional locations in the Michigan cities of Battle Creek, Benton Harbor, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Muskegon, Royal Oak and Traverse City.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Rangers rookie J.T. Miller fumbled his way to a goal in the third round of a shootout and New York snapped a three-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday night.
The 20-year-old Miller skated in slowly on Dan Ellis and briefly lost the puck before calmly gathering it and scoring from a tough angle near the goal line. Rick Nash scored in the opening round of the tiebreaker and Henrik Lundqvist stopped both Carolina tries.
The Rangers (14-12-2) moved into ninth place in the Eastern Conference ? two points behind Carolina (15-11-2), which lost its third straight (0-2-1). It was the Hurricanes' first shootout of the season.
Carolina's Eric Staal scored in the first period, and Derek Stepan tied it in the second for the Rangers. The rest of the game belonged to the goalies: Lundqvist, who made 29 saves, and Carolina counterpart Ellis, who stopped 35 shots in his third start since No. 1 goalie Cam Ward was injured March 3.
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) ? Teddy Purcell scored the tiebreaking goal midway through the third period to lift Tampa Bay to a win over Philadelphia.
Purcell's in-close deflection at 9:25 of the third came shortly after the Lightning killed off a short-handed situation. Ondrej Palat, Tom Pyatt and Steven Stamkos also scored for Tampa Bay, which improved to 12-1 when leading after the first period. Stamkos scored his 21st goal this season into an empty net with 3 seconds to play.
Maxime Talbot and Claude Giroux scored for Philadelphia, while defenceman Kimmo Timonen played in his 1,000th NHL game on his 38th birthday.

Poles admit destroying WWII Jewish hideout
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — A Polish couple who destroyed a World War II Jewish hideout located in an apartment they were renting from the city of Warsaw have pleaded guilty to ruining a historic site, an official said Tuesday.
The couple, identified as Dariusz P. and Elzbieta P, were indicted after city authorities discovered in 2012 that they had removed the wardrobe to create a kitchen in the small apartment.
During the Second World War, Warsaw ghetto inmate Leon Jolson made the hideout behind a giant wardrobe in the apartment while working outside the ghetto perimeter. Jolson, his mother Blima, and his wife Anna hid there in 1942. His mother died in hiding, but Jolson and his wife remained there until September 1944 and survived the Holocaust.
In 1999, the hideout was listed as a historic monument and was being checked by city authorities from time to time.
Spokesman for Warsaw prosecutors, Dariusz Slepokura, said the couple pleaded guilty. He also said he believes the court case should be closed.

How to Build Multipurpose VehiclePosted in Project Vehicles on October 1, 1999
The goal: One vehicle that can do everything from commuting to work to tackling a tough trail.
Let's face it: Not all of us have enough funds to have a vehicle lying around strictly devoted to trail use. Once you go through the expense of building a trail rig, you still have to buy a trailer for it and then a tow rig to haul everything. The expenses can quickly add up. Besides, even if a small budget is not the problem, some of us just want a vehicle that can tackle a variety of tasks and trails.
Now that we have you thinking about the one-vehicle option, we must inform you that building a functional multipurpose rig is a lot harder than you might think. While other people have the luxury of building a vehicle for a specific task, the multipurpose builder has to design a vehicle that can perform well over a variety of terrain and still be reliable and roadworthy enough to get to work the next day.
What is the key to success in building a multi-purpose vehicle? Probably one of the most important steps is to determine what you are really going to use the vehicle for. Do you have a long or a short commute to work? Are you going to haul more cargo than passengers? What kind of trails do you go on? Questions like these must be answered in an honest manner if you are to wind up with a truly useful vehicle. The following pages are filled with plenty of other tips and ideas that you can use in your quest to build a do-all vehicle.
