When asked about Maurice Benard's performance last year on the long-running soap opera General Hospital, head writer Bob Guza doesn't hesitate: "It was the most courageous thing I'd ever seen,"
"Most actors," Guza continues, "take risks; good ones take a character as far as they can. But they also have a cushion—it's a role. Maurice wasn't just playing it, he was living it. And he went to some scary, scary places." The route to those scary places was the 2006 GH story arc that chronicled a bipolar breakdown as experienced by a character who has bipolar—who, in turn, is being portrayed by an actor with bipolar. This is Benard, who in August celebrated 14 years of playing GH's complicated mobster (and Tony Soprano prototype) Sonny Corinthos, and who is also a spokesperson for the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance. His bipolarity has not just informed his life and work, it has also become a part of the daytime drama—something that's probably unique in the history of entertainment. As a dramatic technique, it might be dubbed "Extreme Method Acting." "It was method acting without them knowing," says the 44-year-old Emmy-winning performer. "In my mind, I always said, 'I'll make this guy bipolar.' He started out being a bad guy, a really bad guy. And I thought to myself 'How can I make this guy come off in a way where it's justified, in his head, what he's doing?' I had always thought about the history of the character, what happened to him as a child. When I let it be known I was bipolar, we wrote it into the character." "I had told Maurice, 'When you're ready, let me know,'" says Guza. |

Mathematics- A homogeneous function of two or more variables having rational or integral coefficients.More example sentences
- Maschke's second area of work was on differential geometry in particular the theory of quadratic differential quantics.
- However his most important contribution was the book 'An Introduction to the Algebra of Quantics' which was first published in 1895.
- The math term 'quantic' means 'a rational integral homogenous function of two or more variables,' which is a fancy way of saying 'two great tastes that taste great together.'
mid 19th century: from Latin quantus 'how great, how much' + -ic.

State Senate votes to reverse unmarried partner benefits
The Michigan Senate has voted by a super-majority to reverse a state Civil Service Commission decision that would allow unmarried state employees to claim domestic partners on their health insurance.
Earlier this year, a state employment panel approved unmarried partner benefits that would include people in same-sex relationships and their dependents.
Republican state Senator Mark Jansen says the state can't afford it – and voters have already spoken about domestic partner benefits by refusing to recognize same-sex marriages or civil unions.
"This is about economics. This is about our budget. This is about getting Michigan back on track."
But, Democratic state Senator Rebekah Warren says rejecting domestic partner benefits would hurt children.
"Families are always stronger when health insurance is accessible to everyone in the household."
The measure now goes to the state House, where Republicans will have to muster a two-thirds majority vote to reverse the policy. Otherwise, state employees will be able to claim unmarried partners on their benefits starting October first.

Patrons learn the technique and focus needed to launch rapid-fire blows during Boxing 101 classes that blend cardio and callisthenic exercises. During Mixed Martial Arts for Fitness sessions, guests flip punching bags onto the ground before delivering practiced pummels invented by hunters to subdue wild teddy bears. Fitness Boot Camp mixes several fisticuffs drills into a single routine, designed to help patrons of all age ranges and experience to shed pounds, ramp up endurance, and defend themselves against hordes of falling balloons. Boxing classes and personal training sessions allow patrons to burn up to 1,000 calories a session.
The Punch House
Alongside experienced instructors, nationally ranked heavyweight boxer Danny Calhoun gets students fighting fit during boxing and martial-arts courses. Mr. Calhoun teaches students the same techniques for hand speed, footwork, and cardio endurance that he uses in his own pursuit of boxing's World Heavyweight Title. Instructors also offer classes in the practical self-defense art of Krav Maga, a battle-tested fighting style employed by the Israeli Defense Forces. The facility's combat tutelage has drawn such professional athletes as Indianapolis Colts linebacker Tyjuan Hagler and UFC champion Rich Franklin to The Punch House's arenas. Inside the high-ceilinged gym, red walls frame the expanse of blue and black floor mats, bruised from the many ground-pound lessons during mixed-martial-arts classes. Heavy, full-length bags sway, only slightly malformed from the devastating combos students are taught to deliver.

What it lacks in coherency, RZA's 'Iron Fists' makes up for in balls-to-the-wall weirdness.
Better than the original, but that's not saying much.
Robert Downey, Jr. is dedicated to earning his brown sash in the martial art of Wing Chun and he is halfway there after eight years of the strict discipline.
What's new in the world of high-def home entertainment.
We love Netflix instant streaming, but when it comes to foreign films, there's a problem.
Actor ROBERT DOWNEY, JR. is studying for his brown belt in Wing Chun kung-fu.
"I meditate. I cycle for hours. It's not a physical activity for me as much as it's a mental activity. I practice kung fu and wing chun." Actor JAKE GYLLENHAAL enjoys working out to clear his mind.
This erotically charged sizzler from Oscar-winning director Ang Lee is a brilliant look at how the best-laid plans of freedom fighters during wartime can backfire, especially when sex with the enemy is a fundamental part of their deadly scheme.
Shedding the confines of the original 1990s live-action versions, the new TMNT runs free with crisp, malleable animation and kick-ass action. Franchise fans young and old should be duly entertained.
Colorful and stunningly choreographed, Iron Monkey is entertaining from start to finish, even if the story is little more than Robin Hood recast.

This page should grow to describe where Mono's ASP.NET implementation stands in terms of compliance with Web standards as defined by the W3C.
It will hopefully also eventually provide a roadmap for achieving fuller compliance.
The ultimate goal can be stated as making sure Mono's Web platform:
- Produces well-formed XML
- Produces valid XHTML 1.1
- Does not generate 'placeholder' tags or other non-semantic markup
- Separates content and style (semantic XHTML and CSS, also avoiding 'style' attributes in favour of stylesheets)
- Encourages accessible design
Table of contents |
Non-semantic markup
Elements like this have no place on the Web in 2005:
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="DA0ADgEFAQ4BDQAOAwUBBQMFBQ4DDQwMDgEBB0VuYWJsZWQOAQgAAAANDAwOAQIAAA4BCAAAAA0MDA4BAgAADgEIAAAAAA==" />
(Seen in output from Mono ASP.NET)
It seems to be there to provide some kind of "stateful" browsing, but not only does it go against the spirit of the HTML standards, but also seems to make Back/Forward button behaviour even less intuitive for the average user.
id tags
'id' attributes can't start with underscores. It's the law. "id and name attributes must begin with a letter, not a digit."
Style and content
<table id="myTable" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" border="2" bordercolor="blue">
This is no good.
XHTML and Accessibility in ASP.NET Whidbey: "In the end we walked away though with a plan that will enable us to output XHTML 1.1 by default."

Argentinian football violence makes Lionel Messi cry
Look what you've done, Argentina. You've made your own captain cry.
Oh, the humanity!
As followers of the FOX Soccer Blog, you are all aware of the frightening amount of violent footage that comes out of Argentina. So in an effort to advocate against hooliganism, the Lionel Messi Foundation released this video for their "No One Wins" campaign.
The video shows real, actual tears of Messi's, inter-cut with images of the fan violence that has pestered the country in recent years.
If anything can put a stop to the madness, it's a sobbing Messi.

Sweet. I feel same way about Leviathan. Good stuff. Thanks for the feedback, lookin forward to seeing prolonged results....
Didn't really get anything from leviathan. Good to hear it works for you though.
Today I feel very energized. The energy I get from it definately counteracts the tiredness I feel from the 11-oxo. It fits very nicely in my stack. I have been feeling very hungry lately. It started last night and has continued untill now. I dont know what in my stack is causing it but its not bothersome enough to care too much. I just figured it may be related because it is the only stim I am taking right now.
Ok some initial feedback.. I just tested out Leviathan + reset AD yesterday
Took one cap of each at about 3pm, had a pretty awesome spin session at 6.30.. got home and it was 8pm when I had dinner.. and I was NOT hungry at all. Energy was pretty smooth, experienced a bit of thirst though, gonna get a log up probably this weekend for those interested..
well it's up in the log section now!!

HARRISVILLE, W.Va. -- West Virginia State Police are looking for someone who broke into the evidence room of the Harrisville State Police detachment in Ritchie County late Tuesday and made off with evidence.
State Police spokesman Sgt. Michael Baylous said someone broke into the detachment through a window sometime late Tuesday, then forced their way into the evidence room. Some evidence was stolen, but State Police are not saying what was taken pending the conclusion of an investigation into the theft.
State Police are working closely with Ritchie County prosecutor Judi McCullough, Baylous said.
Anyone with information is asked to call their local West Virginia State Police detachment or visit www.wvcrime.com.

chiquita Posts: 18Hi. can you kindly tell me what the apr % rate is for top tier if I BUY an 2012 A5 from AFS.
I have always leased car and thinking i might want to buy?
On the other hand, so i can compare, can you tell me if I leased what the current money factor and residual is for an 2012 A5 (prem plus?) for 36 mo lease and 15K miles? I i need more miles like 20K do they offer that?
I need to compare buying versus leasing with more miles.
when negotiating a price, are deals going under invoice currently? If I have loyalty and turning in a lease now, do I apply that loyalty amount in the negotiation price?? or negotiate , then subtract after that?
thank you so much, i know I'm asking a lot but thank you!!!! -
gavrik Posts: 27Hi,
this may not a proper venue for my question but here it is:
My Audi A5 came with BFGoodrich G-Force summer tire which makes my car sound like a freight train. I am looking to immediately replace it with all-season high-performance tire to avoid buying winter tires for mid-West driving. I am currently considering Bridgestone RE970AS tires. Does anyone have recommendations? Thanks. -
blumustang Posts: 6The dealer has an ask of $36k on a certified 2009 A5 Prestige with 33k miles. The car is coming back from a 36 month lease. I've been looking around online and most asks are around this price point and seem to be selling fairly quickly. The dealer is already playing up how special the car is and won't last as expected.
I'm hoping someone more experienced than me will be able to give me an idea of what my target price should be to purchase the car for?
I'm looking to do a trade in as well (05 Mustang with 30k miles) but that's a diff story.
Thanks guys! -
morrisoba13 Posts: 1Hi.
It's been a while since I've used Edmunds' Prices Paid forum. When I purchased my Acura TL-S 11 years ago, it played an instrumental part in me getting a good price so I'm hoping to get some insight once again. There are very few recent posts, but I'm hoping that my query will spark some answers.
I'm interested in purchasing an A5 with the following:
I tried using truecar.com, but after reading several reviews of the website, I don't feel confident. I'm hoping to get insight from the edmunds community regarding how much I should expect to pay. Thanks in advance!

redlinepb Posts: 12I am looking to get a 2013 A5 Coupe with Premium package with the following options:
Phantom Black paint
The best deal I have so far is (Car MSRP is around $41K) The are cutting me a deal on price, which they said they usually don't do on special ordered cars
42 months/10K miles
$1K down plus exceptions
$559month (Tax included)
I have to order the car because no one in Florida has it, so by the time it gets here in December they said they can probably adjust the lease terms to 39 months. What do you guys think of this deal? -
ttrr93 Posts: 1Prestige pkg
Sport pkg
19" wheels summer tires
Exhaust tips
All weather mats
52,160 msrp
1st payment, tax, title, license down
60mo/15k miles yr
Having to order the car. Thoughts on the deal?
My real question is - is it normal for leasing companies like D&M or Autoflex etc to add profit to the cap cost?? The rep was upfront and stated the profit that is added to cap cost. My first lease so wanted to know if this was normal practice for these leasing companies.
Thx! -
redlinepb Posts: 12Went back on Labor day and was able to get a better deal
39 months/12K miles
$1K down plus exceptions
$557month (Tax included)
My car gets delivered in December, and I may be able to get an even better deal, because that's when they will be having the season of Audi. I will post an update when my car arrives. -
crake Posts: 1Greetings,
I am looking at a used 2011 Audi A5 that has 17k miles. The vehicle was stolen, wrecked (minimal cosmetic damage to front bumper/hood) and the airbag deployed. Repairs have been done and it looks outstanding (have pics if requested). The guy says he can't go lower than $30k, but I'm wondering if this price is too high? Am I being optimistic here, or does a deployed airbag in this situation call for a dramatic price drop? I don't have the exact details on how much the repairs cost, but can gather that information if it will help. I just want to make sure I'm paying the right price. Any insight/advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks a bunch.

A new movie filmed here at home premieres in Parkersburg after all.
Parkersburg High School hosts the debut of "Pro-Wrestlers Vs. Zombies".
School officials confirm PHS will be the site of the March 28th debut of "Pro Wrestlers Vs. Zombies".
The school is renting the auditorium to the production crew, that makes about 1,300 available tickets.
More than 500 local people were part of the independent film, including a lot of Big Reds students who were extras.
"We also had pro-wrestling here last spring and they filmed some of the movie during that pro-wrestling over in the field house," says Lori Lowers, athletic director. "So I think there was a great deal of interest from the community to have it here in Parkersburg."
Production crews say they originally had a verbal agreement with the Smoot Theatre to host the premiere.
But management cancelled, after reportedly saying there was never a formal agreement.
Filmmakers then scrambled to keep the premiere in Parkersburg where most of the movie was shot.
Big names came to Parkersburg to make a movie this past year.
But "Pro Wrestlers Versus Zombies" won't premiere here.
That's because the movie makers had to tap out to the Smoot.
More than 500 local people were part of "Pro Wrestlers Versus Zombies", a big reason why filmmakers wanted to hold the premiere in Parkersburg.
But now the producers say the Smoot Theatre won't debut the film on March 28th because it's not family friendly.
The production team says the two sides had a verbal agreement several months back.
"They said the date was clear and there were no problems so as far as we knew, everything was in place," says Emily Lapisardi, music supervisor for the movie. "We were just waiting to receive paperwork from them, which we never received."
We've tried repeatedly to talk with Smoot representatives, but our calls haven't been returned.
The production team is now talking with other area venues, trying to keep the screening in Parkersburg.
They say they'll go to Charleston as a last resort, should they have no luck here in the Valley.
Parkersburg is the hot spot for the upcoming film, Pro Wrestlers versus Zombies.
And it's week two of filming, this time at the Fort Boreman Historical Park Thursday.
We told you last week about the flick.
And ever since, zombies and their fans have taken over the valley.
They've been shooting all over Parkersburg from the old jail to the City Park.
Zombie and pro wrestler lovers are excited about bringing Parkersburg some national exposure.
"The film office was wonderful, actually, I talked to Jamie Cope there from the film office, he's here tonight and the fact that the Wood County Commissioners were so easy to deal with and they made it wonderful here and the town's been amazing. So it's a perfect location," says Director and Writer Cody Knotts.
Film makers say they will be filming in Parkersburg until January 20th or the 21st.
If you want to participate in the movie, visit the "Pro Wrestlers versus Zombies" page on Facebook.

Wood blinds can add to a nautical themeAug 20 2010 Wood blinds can add to a nautical theme The news source reports that Rasmussen's inspiration stems from the fact that she admires the atmosphere that comes along with the coast. One of her most recent endeavors found her purchasing bags of shells, rocks and coral that she wants to use around the house. "Being at the beach or on the water is a time of leisure for most people," Rasmussen told the news provider. Homeowners looking to include a coastal atmosphere into their own home may want to consider installing wood blinds throughout their house. Wood blinds can effectively reflect the natural elegance and transcendent calm that are associated with the ocean, and at the same time provide individuals with an easy way to adjust the lighting in a room.

It's the quality of the apps they're including - I would add in Parallels or VMWare Fusion, iDraw, and an Omni app if they're able. That bundle would sell like hot cakes. Apps lots of people want but feel are overpriced individually. |

Howdy y'all, I'm Nate, the founder and co-owner of MacLegion. Thanks for taking the time to post, good or bad. Anyway, I'm the one in charge of putting together these bundles and handling support... The perfect candidate for a post here. So, if you have suggestions on what app(s) you'd like to see in an upcoming bundle or just feel like telling me what a crappy job I've been doing please email me directly via nate (-at-) maclegion (-dot-) com. Obviously not all the apps in a bundle are going to be appealing to all Mac users. For example, I literally use Fantastical every day yet its useless to some of you. Perceived value is a big deal 'cause I'm not putting this bundle together for myself, I'm putting it together for the Mac community as a whole. Bottom line, I genuinely want to know what you're thinking, good, bad or ugly. Seriously, if you tell me apps you'd like to see in an upcoming bundle your voice is heard, simple as that. Doesn't mean the developers will play ball but I'll do my best to get you what you want. For those of you with questions or problems with the bundle please email me via help (-at-) maclegion (-dot-) com. Alright this post is long enough, I'll shut up and let you get back to it.

Coming up with a great bundle is an impossible task because everyone has different needs. As the saying goes "one person's trash is another one's treasure." If multiple smaller bundles were offered, and were specialized, I think there would be much more interest.

The RRP for those apps are insane. But I still wouldn't pay that discounted price. Guess I just don't need any of them.
But in a world where you can get 5-7 high quality games as "pay what you want" (as cheap as 1p), it seems mad to spend $50 on 10 apps in a sale.
Maybe if everyone who'd ever been close to you had died, you'd be sarcastic, too.

30$ for Copy and Paste?
HAHHAHAA. I always found the price of Mac app crazy. Dev really are presumptuous to believe they can sell a product priced that high when you can live without it anytime. Seriously, 30$ to have a better copy and paste ?? |

Freeway pro is a great web site app with hundreds of "actions" that extend usability. I have used it for some time (6 or 7 years in some version or another). RapidWeaver looks very template oriented and its add-ons seem very pricey.
I also like Techtool though I find OSX drastically reduced my need for this type of maintenance app. RipIt is brilliant; have yet to see a more straightforward and effective DVD ripper. As for Beamer, I already use Air Video Server so not sure if I need it but the functionality is needed if you have an Apple TV. I would say its a pretty good bundle actually. |

I think bundles work out great when there's an app you were already going to buy and it's the same price so everything else is just icing ... or it's even cheaper ... or you score a couple of "on the fence" apps.
The recent Heist bundle was solid for me because I wanted DiskKeeper Pro and Tune Up, so for $29, I got those two ($99/$39), plus a couple of nice utilities I'd probably never have sprung for, some games, even sold an app making my bundle price ~$22 |

I have used Freeway since the 90's. Don't see any problem with this app. It is what it is: Making websites akin to desktop publishing. Yes, you have less control over the code, but it does it pretty well for it's target audience. Still a bit of a learning curve, but the same as desktop publishing software.
I find it wonderful that this company (Softpress) still exists (since 1994). |

Those apps have never ending support though. You're not just paying for the app, you're paying to have it updated and work until it's no longer possible for the developer to update. I have things that were made for OS X Panther originally, then updated for Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, and now Mountain Lion.

---------- They do different things. RipIt makes an image of the DVD that you can either process through Handbrake or play directly on your Mac (since the Mac DVD player supports .dvdmedia images). I like to rip DVDs because a) it gives me a backup, and b) having Handbrake process a DVD image for a few hours means you're not spinning your DVD player for those few hours - it's less wear and tear.

Funk Evolution
Omaha served as home for five friends making a decade worth of soul, funk and rock
Nashville resident Rick Chudacoff traces his musical evolution all the way back to Omaha, tying in four longtime friends and three musical acts that dominated Omaha's musical scene in the 1970s.
Chudacoff, Leslie Smith, Lester Abrams, Arno Lucas and Ron Cooley played together in various line-ups from the late 60s through the late 70s, forming the Les Smith Soul Band, L.A. Carnival and Crackin' in succession, before relocating Crackin' to New York then Los Angeles around late 1972.
The principle members of the three groups will gather in Omaha for a series of shows Sunday, August 26th and Monday, August 27th at the OM Center, 1216 Howard St.
"It's going to be an amazing reunion," Chudacoff says.
The five band mates have maintained close friendships since Crackin' dissolved in 1978, often playing on each others' projects. They have gathered recently before to play old material, but this performance will comprise the farthest-reaching revue of the music they made together, Chudacoff says.
"We did a similiar show five years ago, but it was mostly based around Crackin'," he says.
Chudacoff's funk and soul evolution started just as he graduated from Central High School. It was the summer of 1967 and Chudacoff had met Ron Cooley, who was playing in the Sights and Sounds Blues Band.
As the two worked to assemble a new combo, they sought out several singers. Eventually, the search led them to Leslie Smith. The burgeoning line-up connected Central grad Chudacoff to North High School musicians.
By the fall, they had become the Les Smith Soul Band, adding Arno Lucas and playing mostly soul music. The final piece came later on when Lester Abrams joined up as the group's drummer. With his involvement came added chops and a new direction.
"He was a few years old, more experienced," Chudacoff says.
Soon the band turned into not just a soul band, but funk band, Chudacoff says. That stylistic evolution was spurred on by Abrams' presence.
And just as that line-up solidified, Smith left the country for military service. The band changed its name to L.A. Carnival due to Smith's departure and to signify Lester Abrams (L.A.) guiding hand in the group's sound.
The band played regionally, splitting time between proms, organized dances and bookings at teen-oriented clubs. Sandy's Escape became one of the main spots where L.A. Carnival played.
As a mixed band featuring both white and black members, they also drew a crowd from all over the city. Chudacoff says that had both positive and negative effects.
"We brought together the white and black youth in a social atmosphere away from their respective schools," he says.
For many, it was a chance to make friends across those racial lines.
But the racially-charged atmosphere in the late 60s and early 70s also led to tension and fights. Omaha at the time also had more widespread riots and racial tension, compounded by a 1968 visit by Alabama governor and segregationist George Wallace.
Chudacoff says through that period of racial growth and evolution, L.A. Carnival kept on and began to build a head of steam with its mix of smooth soul-funk. After serving in the military, Smith even rejoined the gang as a member of L.A. Carnival.
But by 1971, the band splintered apart as members left to pursue other interests. Lucas and Chudacoff got involved with a rock project that echoed acts like the Allman Brothers Band and Traffic.
L.A. Carnival's resurgence began back in 2002 when Stones Throw-affiliated label Now & Again Records reissued a slew of the band's recordings.
That band was called Crackin' and it eventually would lead to another reunion for the five friends that had gotten to know each other in the Les Smith Soul Band and L.A. Carnival.
By 1973, Crackin' had relocated to upstate New York, hoping to record in Woodstock and use their new homebase as a launching page to fame and fortune. That didn't immediately happen for the band though, Chudacoff says.
Meanwhile, Smith had settled in San Francisco after playing as a member of the touring show for the musical Hair. Abrams had moved out there too.
So Lucas and Chudacoff reconnected with Abrams and Smith, bringing Crackin' around to a new, rock-oriented iteration of the funk and soul the four had always made together.
Record label success greeted Crackin' in California as they cut one record for Polydor and three for Warner Brothers before disbanding in 1978.
After that run, Abrams hit on success with the Doobie Brothers, co-writing "Minute By Minute" with Michael McDonald. Chudacoff struck chart success in 1980, writing "Steal Away" with vocalist Robbie Dupree. Dupree is set to perform as part of the OM Center show.
The group's performance will also include stories of the bands and Omaha's music scene while presenting the songs sequentially. In addition to Dupree's cameo, the performance will include Bob Bordy from Crackin', as well as bringing out other past L.A. Carnival or Les Smith Soul Band players, including two horn players that Chudacoff says he hasn't seen in almost 40 years.
Earlier in the week, the band mates will be teaching workshops and seminars at the Omaha Conservatory of Music, 3504 South 108th St. Information on those sessions can be found at omahacm.org.
The musical revue is Sunday, August 26th and Monday, August 27th at the OM Center, 1216 Howard St. at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 day-of-show. For more information, visit omcenterdaily.com.

this card is OPPros: does not get very loud, even running furmark etc. Stays very cool, it's hard to push this card over 82c in furmark in my antec 900 case. Cons: not sure. Other Thoughts: VERSACE VERSACE Did you find this review helpful? |
So far so great!Pros: - Runs all the games I want to play including: Guild Wars 2, The War Z, League of Legends, Diablo 3, and Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm(all on high graphical settings). Cons: - None. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good board/ useless tech supportPros: loaded with features and has good software. Cons: Installation documentation that came with the board was incorrect. Spent 2 months with ASUS email support and even sent the board in for warranty repair. Then I found a you tube video someone made that showed that the board REQUIRES 2 power feeds from the power supply. The install page tells you not to use the second one. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: 2 fans Cons: The drivers from AMD's site and the latest driver on Asus's site resulted in a very jumpy gameplay. I discovered this is caused by the core clock frequency jumping rapidly up and down from 1010 to 450 MHz. The only driver I got to work is the old driver on Asus's site. Did you find this review helpful? |
"Star Performer"Pros: FAST Cons: Somewhat large card - make sure you have adequate space! Other Thoughts: I wound up not buying this from Newegg because I found it locally for about $10 less without a rebate required. But I rarely buy anywhere else besides Newegg and as this card nears the $200 price point it will likely be the best at that price point. I upgraded from a GTX 480 Fermi and a 6850 before that. This card hands-down outperforms either of those cards in a big way. Where the GTX 480 suffered, mostly in heat and sustained FPS with lots of detail, the 7870 excells. Running at 1920x1080, BF3 and GW2 (Guild Wars 2) I have everything maxed. I haven't seen GW2 dip under 58 FPS yet, and the great thing is I'm running stock. I'll OC some if I need to for big multiplayer events if it dips a bit, but from what I hear this card has some room to push without suffering instability. A great buy for me. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great!Pros: - Runs quiet Cons: none Other Thoughts: I am a big battlefield fan and probably always will be, so i was looking for something that could give me the best performance without breaking my budget too much. I was a little skeptical because i really thought that in order to play full ultra i would need something like a gtx 670 or something, but i tried this and it is amazing! I have my settings set to ultra with AA down to 8x and i am able to get about 50-65 fps on average. The lowest ive seen is 35 but the area was under a lot of activity and it quickley fixed itself. Budget wise, you cannot go wrong with this card it is fantastic! I heard the preice on them might be dropping soon so you may be able to pick up two and crossfire, idk. Did you find this review helpful? |
As expectedPros: Plays everything on ultra. Stays pretty cool. Overclocks really nice. Cons: None so far. Other Thoughts: Not listed as a con because its expected.. This is big, make sure you do your research so it fits. Did you find this review helpful? |
A card so good, I question it's legalityPros: Let's get one thing first. Screw the Nvidia and ATI bias. I simply get the best card I can without paying something ridiculous. For $249, this is a steal. I'm not going to pay $200 for an equivalent Nvidia card, likewise I bought a 8800GT four years ago because it was the much better value. Cons: Make sure you have a case big enough to support this sucker. It's huge, and by huge I'm talking OMFGWTF huge. Building this setup, jaws were dropped in the dorm when they saw how big this card was. It takes up 2 slots so I don't know how Crossfire would work, lol. I had a mid-tower NZXT Source Elite and the power wires are touching the case. Not that I care, but something to keep in mind. Other Thoughts: Just get it. If you're thinking about it, buy it. Get it, overclock it and voila: you've got a 7970 in a nutshell. Very rare you see value like this. Smokes the 580 in stock form all day. Screw the ATI/Nvidia bias, this is THE STEAL ON NEWEGG. Buy it before they read this review and crank up the price. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
ConfusedPros: Cool looks , Performance is amazing in the rights places to use it Cons: Some games this card just hates I should of want with a Nivida card with better rattlings what was i thinking now I'm stuck with this rubbish card for a long time :/ hard earned money burned on this thing...... I don't know if its the games i play do not like this card i tried updating drivers and have done many different things just not getting my moneys worth out of a $300 dollar card..... Other Thoughts: Wish i can return this thing its probably to late well hit me up if you want to buy it for 1/2 the price its brand new Manufacturer Response: 3 out of 13 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Big Wow FactorPros: 3.0 PCIe is faster more detailed than ever. Installed easily. Uses two power connectors, six pins each for a total of twelve. My Power supply [Rosewill HIVE Series HIVE-550 ] came with two divided eight pin connectors so looks strange with the divided pins hanging off the sides. I know I'm under powered but that was the plan to run the low consumption Sata SSD drives, one DVD drive and not much else plus only minimal overclocking. Cons: Catalyst flaked on me [as usual] when I tried to setup two displays as one so now after uninstalling then reinstalling I will just leave it alone. I never had a problem with the cards, only the software... Thats the egg off Did you find this review helpful? |

Your tools are trying to tell you what's wrong, so take a second and listen. By Doug Mahoney Email Comments 0 Share Back 4 of 5 Next Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Back Next View Thumbnails Warping Wood Tool: Table Saw Problem: As the wood passes through the saw, the pieces to either side of the cut are twisting and turning. What the Tool is Trying to Tell You: This piece of wood could be trouble. Sometimes you'll get a piece of lumber with a grain so twisted that it's basically spring-loaded. Once a blade cuts into it, the pressure starts to release as the lumber passes through the saw, and the wood begins to twist. Whenever something like this happens on a table saw, it's time to start waving the caution flag. The last thing you want is the twisted piece to get caught in the blade and kick back at you. With all of this built-up tension in the wood looking for a place to go, it's time to shut off the saw, remove the piece of wood, and get another one.

Thermoelectric generator
This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2013) |
Thermoelectric effect |
Thermoelectric generators (also called Seebeck generators) are devices that convert heat (temperature differences) directly into electrical energy, using a phenomenon called the Seebeck effect (a form of thermoelectric effect). Their typical efficiencies are around 5–8%. Older devices used bimetallic junctions and were bulky. More recent devices use highly doped semiconductors made from bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3), lead telluride (PbTe),[1] calcium manganese oxide, or combinations thereof,[2] depending on temperature. These are solid-state devices and unlike dynamos have no moving parts, with the occasional exception of a fan or pump.
Radioisotope thermoelectric generators can provide electric power for spacecraft. Automotive thermoelectric generators are proposed to recover usable energy from automobile waste heat.
Thermoelectric generators can be applied in a variety of applications. Usually, thermoelectric generators are used for small applications where heat engines (which are bulkier but more efficient) such as Stirling engines would not be possible. Another deciding factor is that while inefficient, thermoelectric generators are more reliable and have a smaller chance of breaking over time and use. Spacecraft are a typical example of an application where maintenance is next to impossible after launch.
- The most common application is the use of thermoelectric generators on gas pipelines. For example, for cathodic protection, radio communication, and other telemetry. On gas pipelines for power consumption of up to 5 kW thermal generators are preferable to other power sources. The manufacturers of generators for gas pipelines are Global Thermo electrics (Canada) and TELGEN (Russia)
- Many space probes, including the Mars Curiosity rover, generate electricity using a thermoelectric generator whose heat source is a radioactive element. For more details, see the article: Radioisotope thermoelectric generator.
- Cars and other automobiles produce waste heat (in the exhaust and in the cooling agents). Harvesting that heat energy, using a thermoelectric generator, can increase the fuel efficiency of the car. For more details, see the article: Automotive Thermoelectric Generators.
- In addition to automobiles, waste heat is also generated in many other places, such as in industrial processes and in heating (wood stoves, outdoor boilers, cooking, oil and gas fields, pipelines, and remote communication towers). Again, the waste heat can be reused to generate electricity. In fact, several companies have begun projects in installing large quantities of these thermoelectric devices. Some companies include TEGPRO ([1]), Thermal Electronics Corp., Custom Thermoelectric([2]), Marlow Industries, tecteg MFR., wellentech and TEG Power. Other companies are developing consumer-level applications to capture the energy commonly wasted during cooking. A handful of USB cooking products have emerged, such as the BioLite stoves, Hatsuden Nabe thermoelectric cookpot[3] Stealth Power Systems,[4] and the PowerPot.[5] Wood stove TEG12VDC-24AIR and TEG12VDC-24LIQUID TEG Generators producing enough power to trickle charge 12VDC and 24VDC batteries. Thermal Electronics Corp.[6] Devil Watt Wood stove Thermoelectric Generators produce as much as 50 Watts of Power. Devil Watt[7] Tegulator Thermoelectric Generator Energy Harvesting Modules convert very low voltage into regulated outputs of 1.8, 2.2, 3.0, 3.3 and 5.0 volts. Tegulator[8]
- Microprocessors generate waste heat. Researchers have considered whether some of that energy could be recycled.[9] (However, see below for problems that can arise.)
- Solar cells use only the high frequency part of the radiation, while the low frequency heat energy is wasted. Several patents about the use of thermoelectric devices in tandem with solar cells have been filed.[citation needed] The idea is to increase the efficiency of the combined solar/thermoelectric system to convert the solar radiation into useful electricity.
Thermoelectric generators typically have lower efficiency than mechanical generators such as Stirling engines, i.e. they generate less electric power for the same heat flow. For a discussion of the factors determining and limiting efficiency, and ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency, see the article Thermoelectric materials - Device efficiency.
Besides low efficiency and high cost, two general problems exist in such devices: high output resistance and adverse thermal characteristics.
- High output resistance - in order to get a significant output voltage a very high Seebeck coefficient is needed (high V/°C). A common approach is to place many thermo-elements in series, causing the effective output resistance of a generator to be very high (>10Ω). Thus power is only efficiently transferred to loads with high resistance; power is otherwise lost across the output resistance. A generator with very high output impedance is effectively a temperature sensor, not a generator. This problem is solved in some commercial devices by putting more elements in parallel and fewer in series.
- Adverse thermal characteristics - because low thermal conductivity is required for a good thermoelectric generator, this can severely dampen the heat dissipation of such a device (i.e. thermoelectric generators serve as poor heat sinks). They are only economical when a high temperature (>200°C) can be used and when only small amounts of power (a few watts) are needed.[citation needed]

VirtualDub (32-bit version)
At a Glance
(1 items)
This is a wonderful file for video processing geeks. VirtualDub is a free, open source application that is something of a "photoshop" for video. To start off with the basics, it'll capture video and let you save it. Even if that's all you want to do, this program is worth the download. But it does much more as well.
Its full features are beyond the scope of this review, but it's a very good tool for cleaning up and trimming video, in particular if you want to use it in concert with a more fully featured video editing program. You'll be able to crop video, compress it, remove and replace audio tracks without changing the video, and much more, including using filters that allow you to sharpen and blur. You can even delete individual frames. Highly recommended.
Note: This software comes in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. This is the 32-bit version. If your 64-bit PC is running 64-bit XP or 64-bit Vista, please download the 64-bit version instead.

UCF redshirt senior Sean Maag was arrested in Orlando on April 7 and charged with driving under the influence, a first-degree misdemeanor, according to Orange County court records.
Maag entered a not guilty plea and the case is proceeding toward a jury trial. Maag entered into a pre-trial diversion program and was in court on July 26. A status hearing is scheduled for Aug. 23.
Maag played primarily on special teams last season, registering a team-high 16 special teams tackles. He transferred to UCF from Army, where he was a member of the football program but did not play in any games.
The 6-1, 190-pound defensive back played high school football at Orlando Cypress Creek.
The arrest is UCF's first since wide receiver J.J. Worton was arrested and charged with felony resisting arrest with violence and felony battery on a peace officer in March 2012.
