Give Gary Danko Gummy Worms and Mark Sullivan Pie Made With Sun-Ripened Fruits
Got an email from SFist yesterday asking about my guilty food pleasures to add to their list of other food types and their own personal sins: Spruce chef Mark Sullivan's really going to go to hell for his jamon Iberico addiction, Elizabeth Falkner uses the moment for a little self-promo and, of course, Alice Waters wasn't available for comment, although I'm pretty sure she wouldn't eat an Oreo Cakester if she was marooned on a desert island.
Jamie Lauren (Absinthe, executive chef; season 5 Top Chef): "Nacho cheese pretzel Combos. I'm obsessed. They're delicious."
Gary Danko (Gary Danko, executive chef): "Gummy worms."
Elizabeth Falkner (Orson, executive chef): "On the upcoming Top Chef Masters, I mentioned I like Peanut M&Ms. I pretty much love chocolate and have a recent obsession with how to make my own Cheetos or cheese puffs—only with blue cheese and cayenne!"
Leslie Sbrocco ("Check, Please! Bay Area," host): "I have so many guilty pleasure foods: Cheetos (crunchy), In-N-Out burgers, Oreo Cakesters..."
Patty Unterman (SF Examiner, food critic; owner of Hayes Valley Grill): "Chicago-style hot dogs. I just ate two of them at O'Hare airport in Chicago waiting for a connect back to SF from Paris."
For more guilt, including my own obsession with Fatt Dog, click here. (And for the record, I'm from Louisiana and I'd never heard of a "hot link" until I moved out here.)

Lance Armstrong has been stripped of his seven Tour de France titles after the sport's world governing body, the UCI, accepted the findings of the United States Anti-Doping Agency's investigation.
Armstrong refused to co-operate with USADA, who earlier this month published a 1,000-page report which concluded the Texan and his United States Postal Service team ran "the most sophisticated, professionalised and successful doping programme that sport has ever seen".
In accordance with the World Anti-Doping Code, the UCI had 21 days to respond, until October 31, and president Pat McQuaid announced on Monday the world governing body would accept USADA's findings and ratified the sanctions imposed on Armstrong. It means the Texan has been stripped of all results since August 1, 1998 and banned for life.
At a media conference in Geneva, McQuaid said: "(The UCI) will not appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and it will recognise the sanctions that USADA has imposed.
"The UCI will ban Lance Armstrong from cycling and the UCI will strip him of his seven Tour de France titles. Lance Armstrong has no place in cycling."
Eleven former team-mates of Armstrong testified against him to USADA, receiving six-month bans. These suspensions were also ratified by the UCI, which thanked the riders for giving evidence against Armstrong.
McQuaid added: "The UCI will also recognise the sanctions imposed on the riders who testified against Lance Armstrong; UCI indeed thanks them for telling their stories."
The UCI, particularly the leadership of McQuaid and honorary president Hein Verbruggen, who was president at the time of Armstrong's record run of Tour success, have met criticism over the USADA investigation.
Allegations have been made against the UCI, which McQuaid dismissed.
"UCI has nothing to hide in responding to the USADA report," he said. "The UCI has called a special meeting of the UCI management committee next Friday to discuss this report and the measures which the UCI wishes to put in place in order that we are never faced with such a situation in the future."

Funding opportunities
A translational research project for defining a stem cell formulation for treating ischemic stroke based on comparison of adult neural stem cells and neural stem cells derived from embryonic stem cells.
Funding Type:
Disease Team Planning
Grant Number:
Funds requested:
$49 500
Funding Recommendations:
Not recommended
Grant approved:
Public Abstract:
The goal is to advance stem cell therapy into the clinic for the treatment of California residents who have suffered an ischemic stroke and who still are disabled with neurological and movement limitations. Using traditional animal-based testing systems, a variety of neural stem cells will be studied and characterized.
The study will compare the effectiveness for stroke treatment of two-types of neural stem cells. One type is obtained from human neural tissue; the other neural stem cells are derived from human embryonic stem cells.
Both cell types will be studied alone and in combination with stem cells obtained from adult bone marrow. Previous human studies indicate that the bone-marrow derived stem cells support the effectiveness of the neural stem cells for stroke treatment.
The study team members are from collaborating institutions. The team includes experts in growing and manufacturing stem cells, translating medical research into bed-side medical treatment, neurologists and neurosurgeons experienced in the treatment of stroke.
The team will study the neural stem cells at the levels of: (a) molecular genetic and protein expression, (b) the interactions of stem cells with each other, (c) the effects of various biological molecules on differentiation of the stem cells, (d) the movement of stem cells after they are administered to a subject, (e) the combination of stem cell types required for optimal therapeutic outcome in stroke.
Further studies involve administering stem cells either non-invasively by intravenous injections, or invasively by temporary placement of a small tube into the brain through which the stem cells will be delivered.
The safety of the stem cells for treatment of strokes will be extensively studied in toxicology and carcinogenicity tests. Once safety has been established, the team will file an application with the US Food and Drug Administration for a license to begin testing the stem cells in California residents who have had strokes and suffer from on-going neurological and movement limitations.
Statement of Benefit to California:
The Planning Group seeks to accelerate the development of a safe and efficacious stem cell therapy for treating those afflicted by stroke. The results of this research initiative will provide significant and measurable benefits to the State of California and its health care system by:
1. Restoring the quality of life to thousands of individuals, their families and caretakers.
2. Reducing the short-term and long-term private and public costs associated with treatment, care and rehabilitation.
3. Serving as a model for collaboration between the private and public sectors
4. Making California a 'magnet' for world-renowned researchers and grant money to further regenerative medical research.
According to the California Department of Health Services, stroke is the third leading cause of death in America and the number one cause of adult disability. In 2005, an estimated 9.1% of the population aged 65 or older in California was reported to be affected by stroke. The estimated costs for the treatment and prevention programs in the State are estimated to be in excess of $6.84 billion in both direct and indirect costs. It is estimated that IS accounts for approximately seventy-five percent of the overall costs.
These economic costs do not account for the overall time and emotional burden that families face each and every day when someone within their family has been affected by stroke. As our State's population ages, and as high blood pressure, hypertension, poor diet, lack of exercise and obesity increase in our general population, so too will the incidence of stroke rise. Therefore, the need to find ways to treat individuals who have already had a first stroke is critical to lessening the economic and social burden on California and its citizens.
An increasing number of pre-clinical and clinical studies, (including those already conducted by team members), provide evidence that stem cell therapy improves functional outcome after ischemic brain damage, even in patients who have experienced stroke several years prior to treatment. The depth and breadth of academic and industry experience and contacts of the Planning Team will accelerate a timely, scientifically-supported clinical pathway to FDA approval.
With the full and active support of the CIRM, this Planning Group believes the State of California and its citizens will benefit in a myriad of ways through the advancement of stem cell therapy for those afflicted by ischemic stroke.
Review Summary:
Executive Summary
The overall goal for this disease team planning award is to advance stem cell (SC) therapy into the clinic by defining a particular cell formulation for the treatment of ischemic stroke. The investigators propose to conduct parallel evaluations of two types of neural stem cells (NSCs) for the treatment of stroke:
1) previously characterized human tissue-derived NSC grown under different conditions and 2) human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived NSC. Both cell types would be studied alone and in combination with stem cells derived from adult bone marrow (BM). Adult BM cells appear to play a supportive role to NSCs, both in preclinical models and in stroke patients. The overall team plan will include experts in SC biology, culture manufacturing, translational medicine, regulatory affairs, as well as neurologists and neurosurgeons. Ultimately the team will propose to conduct side-by-side comparisons in preclinical models of embryonic-derived or tissue-derived NSC, alone or in combination with bone marrow derived stem cells, to determine the best cell (or cell combination) for therapeutic application in the treatment of cerebral ischemia.
Stroke represents a reasonable and extensively studied target for stem cell medicine. Besides cell replacement mediated by the differentiated progeny of the transplanted SCs, beneficial effects are likely from neuroprotection, reduction of inflammation, and trophic factor release. The field has matured to the point where clinical trials are at an advanced stage of planning in some centers.
This proposal is designed to advance cell based therapy for the treatment of cerebral ischemia. The Principal Investigator (PI) proposes a disease team to test both brain-derived NSCs and those derived from hESCs, either alone or in combination with bone marrow derived stem cells. The basis for this work comes from stem cell transplantation biology conducted over the last 20 years in outside the US. Although stroke remains a major clinical target for cell based therapies, it is uncertain from this proposal how this work will lead to significant clinical advancement.
Overall this is an expansive proposal to combine and examine two different NSC types in combination with bone marrow derived stem cells. The reviewers felt that the feasibility of combining two different SC types for therapeutic purposes was grandiose. There is a lack of detail concerning the pathway from SC to clinic. The unanimous consensus by the review panel in this particular application was that the concept was not well conceived and implicated naivety about the process of developing new therapies. Moreover, though less relevant, the proposed project appears to be an extension of studies previously performed in outside the US that have not been published in peer-reviewed journals.
The Principal Investigator (PI) is a relatively unknown researcher with little background in the field of SC biology. The assembled team has expertise in the field, but it is very unclear as to how exactly this grouping will function. Two excellent neuroscientists in SC biology are listed but, given that both of them have separately submitted applications, the question as to the commitment they could make to this project needs to be addressed. There was little attention to details about team structure and process.
Based on this outline for such a perceived complicated approach, the review panel is not confident that an award will enable the team to prepare a competitive application that could lead to a clinical trial in the next 5 years.
Reviewer One Comments
This proposal is designed to advance cell based therapy for the treatment of cerebral ischemia. The group proposes to test both brain derived fetal neural stem cells and those derived from human embryonic stem cells, either alone or in combination with mesenchymal stem cells.
Principal Investigator:
The principal investigator (PI) is a relatively unknown researcher with little background in the field of stem cell biology. The assembled team has expertise in the field of stem cell biology, but it is very unclear as to how exactly this group will function.
Planning Approach:
The basis for this work comes from stem cell transplantation biology conducted over the last 20 years in Russia. Very little of this work has been translated into English. Although stroke remains a major clinical target for cell based therapies, it is uncertain from this proposal how this work will lead to significant clinical advancement.
Reviewer Two Comments
This is an application from a Company to assess three different stem cell lines (human fetal neural stem cells, human ES cell-derived neural stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells) in stroke. The work will be performed in collaboration with a Californian academic institution, using a dedicated GMP facility resourced by the Company.
Plausibility of target
Stroke provides a widely studied target for stem cell medicine, with beneficial effects likely from neuroprotection, reduction of inflammation, trophic factor release, in addition to any cell replacement mediated by the differentiated progeny of the transplanted stem cells. The field has matured to the point where clinical trials are at an advanced stage of planning (by a different company).
Evidence in support of therapeutic concept
The proposed project appears to be an extension of studies previously performed in Russia that have not, as far as I can see, been published in a peer-reviewed journal. However, the work of many other groups does support the therapeutic concept that underlies this application.
Can it go to clinic in 5 years?
Stroke represents an important clinical problem that clearly has the ability to advance stem cell medicine into the clinic, with clinical trials already at an advanced stage of planning in other centers.
Principal Investigator:
Track record of Principal Investigator (PI):
The CV reveals a lack of relevant publications in either stem cell biology or medicine. However, in his/her capacity as Vice President of Stemedica, the PI has clearly addressed the issues surrounding GMP facilities and the need to produce high quality cell products.
Translational expertise of Principal Investigator
See above.
Leadership qualities of Principal Investigator
See above.
Planning Approach:
Merit of planning process proposed; is it well thought out?
There is a lack of detail concerning the pathway from stem cell to clinic, and little or no attention appears to have been paid to issues of patient selection, statistics and other concerns surrounding the clinical trial.
How good is the team?
Excellent Neuroscientists in stem cell biology are listed, (ex Lipton and Snyder) but, given that both of them have separately submitted applications on which they are Principal Investigators, the question as to the commitment they could make to this project needs to be addressed.
Will an award enable the team to prepare a competitive application?
Based on this outline, one could not be confident of that.
Reviewer Three Comments
The concept is a reasonable application of stem cell therapy, but does not seem well-worked out. Overall this is an expansive proposal to combine and examine 2 different neuron stem cell types in combination with mesenchymal cells. Certainly this will require an extensive disease planning team since the likelihood of combining two different stem cell types for therapeutic use is extremely grandiose and highly naive about the process of developing new therapies. To that end the investigator has put a team together that includes Dr. Lipton and E. Snyder who seem to be present in multiple other disease planning grants that seem to overlap between other approaches for using stem cells and stroke as well as number of other neurologists and including Dr. Levy at UCSD and neurosurgeon Dr. Rahul Jandial. The design of this disease planning grant is not well described and a number of members are just listed, there are few details about the sequential approach to planning this grant and team approach to this disease oriented stem cell team other then very crude and superficial outlines of these steps including culturing, compared analysis and data collection. Overall this is a poorly outlined disease planning proposal with little attention to details about a team, timelines, repeated meetings and structure. This lack of attention to details does not provide one with great confidence for a future coordinated plan from such a complicated approach.

why has to be from a communist country? history has shown us lots of attrocities coming from non communist ones. Overdose of american cold war movies maybe?
Here is what I think:
I hope Microsoft gets every Windows 8 disc slapped in their arrogant faces.Forcing their ugly idotic Metro interface on desktop users, and not evenoffering an option to turn off Metro and revert to the classic start menu,is Microsoft's way of giving consumers the finger.So I will give the finger right back at them by boycotting Winblows 8.

I hope Microsoft gets every Windows 8 disc slapped in their arrogant faces. Forcing their ugly idotic Metro interface on desktop users, and not even offering an option to turn off Metro and revert to the classic start menu, is Microsoft's way of giving consumers the finger. So I will give the finger right back at them by boycotting Winblows 8.
I agree....before they released the beta, there was 'talk' of the option to choose the 'old' interface. Talk is talk, I guess.
PS: I feel the same way about Google's Chrome.
Windows 8 isn't going to fail. Reason for this. Dell, HP ect.. are going to be shipping tablets, PCs, Laptops, ect.. with that OS. Phones are going to start shipping with it. Intel and microsoft are working together to try and reduce apples market share ect...
I'm excited about the possibility of upgrading, but skeptical. Upgrading from Vista to 7 seemed like a no brainer to me, and the main thing that I'm worried about is that if I do an in-place upgrade to 8 from 7, some stuff on my system might break or not work. That's the main thing ... I have a lot of programs on my computer right now, and it's purring like a kitten 99% of the time, so I'd hate to upset that with a change in OS.
Personally I like the way Metro looks. To me it seems very clean and well organized. And I've read on other sites like Paul Thurrott's site how just because it's optimized for touch, that doesn't mean that it can't work well with a keyboard and mouse. But we shall see.
AMD FX-8350 Black Edition | ASUS M5A99FX PRO | Corsair HX850W | 16 GB Crucial Ballistix DDR3 1866 | Western Digital Caviar Black 2.0 TB SATA-3 | Seagate Barracuda 1.0 TB SATA-3 | Samsung DVD +/- RW (SATA) | LG Blu-ray drive (SATA) | Gigabyte R9 280X | Dell UltraSharp U2713HM 27" LCD | Creative Sound Blaster Z | Cooler Master HAF XM | Corsair K65 | Razer Imperator | Windows 8.1 Pro x64
I *like* playing with windows 8. On a touch screen. Its great. On my PC its a PITA. And I'm not going to go out and buy 3 22 inch touch screen monitors just to make my PC windows 8 friendly. (although I do think that would be cool as hell.) Its not worth it to me imho. In latest news E3 has been awesome.

Beeman's Gum 5-Stick Packs: 20-Piece Box
Pin It
In 1879, Dr. Edward E. Beeman, an Ohio physician, turned gum – which had been simply a fun thing – into a product with valuable features. Setting aside his practice of medicine, Beeman used his medicinal skills to manufacture a pepsin powder to be used as a digestive aid.
During a discussion regarding his new invention, his bookkeeper, Nellie Horton, suggested that he put the pepsin into chewing gum "since so many people buy pepsin for digestion and chewing gum for no reason at all." Beeman blended his pepsin compound with chicle and printed each label with a pig, the logo for his pepsin powder ("With pepsin, you can eat like a pig"). Beeman's financier later switched out the pig for a photo of Beeman's bearded face, which boosted sales even higher.
In 1898, after almost 20 years of limited production and distribution, Beeman's became part of the Adams Company and was mass-produced for the first time. Through the life of the gum, Beeman's earned recognition most prominently through the early days of the space program. General Chuck Yeager, as seen in the movie The Right Stuff, chewed Beeman's during just about every significant flight he made in the '40s and '50s. He described that he breathed pure oxygen through his in-flight mask, which made his mouth extremely dry. Beeman's helped keep his mouth moist.
Beeman's was sold for 100 years before being discontinued in 1978, only to be brought back to the market in 1985 and again in 2005 as a limited-edition nostalgia product .
Beeman's is sold in five-stick packs and is being released as a limited-edition product.
Unit Price = $0.75/pack.
Display box contains 20 packs of Beemans Gum.
Shipping Weight ~ 1 lb.
As many fans are aware, this product is only made every 3-5 years. The "best buy" dates are set approximately 1 year after production. The product may have an expired "best buy" date (depending on the year). No refunds.

LOWLIGHT: Confidence for next year continues to erode.
Highlight: Special survey of tourism leaders.
Index consolidates the changes in revenue, profit and staffing for 400 local companies over the past 12 months.
Very small businesses suffer the most
The survey shows that companies with fewer than 10 employees have been hit hardest – 52 percent say profit was down in the past year and 46 percent say revenue was down.
About the Survey
BOSS – the Business Outlook and Sentiment Survey – is a survey of 400 business leaders on all major islands. It is done twice a year for Hawaii Business by Qmark Research, a division of the Anthology Marketing Group.
Four hundred random interviews were conducted by telephone from Oct. 3 to Oct. 13. In each case, Qmark spoke with the company's owner, CEO or other senior executive. Thirty-two percent of the respondents were on the Neighbor Islands. A mix of small, medium and large companies were surveyed.
Thank you to the Business Banking Council for use of past data.
BOSS Survey 2011 is conducted by

Judged: 1 1 "Some Republican lawmakers are calling those rush contracts into question as a matter of avoiding legislative intent,...". Heeya. Trying to avoid the legislative intent to kill unions and worker rights. "I find it ironic that the people complaining about these groups trying to extend their contracts or reopen their contracts before right-to-work are, in fact, the very same people who didn't have a problem running the legislation through without a public hearing or committee meeting," said Dillon. It's just the way they work Brandon. Sad that they have no integrity to the whole of their constituency, but it's just what they do. "Rep. Al Pscholka (R-Stevensville) says if contracts are going to be extended for a longer than normal time, there should be a benefit to the taxpayer. If not, he says, such contracts should undergo legislative scrutiny." Oh I see, NOW it's acceptable for intrusion. [Republican Rep. Tom McMillin of Rochester Hills] "What are taxpayers getting for their 10-year or 8-year contract in the Wayne State instance? What are students getting?" Hey stupid, it would give them monetary figures that can be counted on for the 10-year or 8-year period. Makes it easier to establish budgets in a long term. A comptrollers worse nightmare.(that's sarcastic by-the-way for those who won't recognize it) One would have to use an industrial sized backhoe to dig up the rock these people crawled out from under. |

Judged: 1 1 1 You are the liar, but nice try. I never said I had lunch with Pete Secchia. I said I was introduced to him. The fact that you refuse to believe me isn't my problem, it's yours. Your arrogance is your undoing. And yes, you and SIB and others run around crying "the sky is falling, the sky is falling", but strangely, only about Republicans while at the same time totally ignoring and endorsing what Obama is doing. |
Judged: 1 1 1 |
Judged: 1 1 1 Kerry likes spending other peoples money because he is an arrogant Waffler.... So he goes to a country that hates the West and "pledges" money...... Like tanks and F16's were not enough....... When you pay income taxes out of your own pocket then you can send Egypt more out of your pocket if it is that important to you...... Ginger..... |
Judged: 1 1 1 Wow are you dense. There's no hope for you. |
Since: Mar 09 10,790 |
Judged: 1 1 1 Speaking of John Kerry,....thats a hard one to figure out. The liberals love him, but he is married to a conservative. His wife Teresa was an heir to the Heintz company, and it's fortunes. http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/busin... The liberals just blasted Romney, because he made money buying and selling business's, but I guess it's different when liberals do it. http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/02/14/john-k... Just stinks of Hypocrissy! |
Judged: 1 1 1 Oh really? Are you disputing that John Kerry gave the money to Egypt?? perhaps you could get off your lazy rear end and find the link to prove HE DIDN'T grant aid to Egypt? As for lying, I know who's lying and it isn't me. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's a duck. You attack anything and everything the Republicans do and you have not posted anything about being upset with Obama on anything, hence the endorsement. Don't like it? Tough, put on your big girl pants and deal. |
Judged: 1 1 1 What? Your saying because Teresa Kerry is an heir to the Heinz fortunes she must be A conservative? Haha. Got news for you. Teresa Heinz is liberal and she's not afraid to admit it. |
Since: Mar 09 10,790 |
Judged: 1 1 1 Really? "Heinz was a registered Republican for most of her voting life, the same as her first husband, and she remained a registered Republican despite being married to Kerry. In January 2003, she changed her registration to the Democratic Party. Later in 2004, she reportedly changed her name from Teresa Heinz to Teresa Heinz Kerry during her husband's presidential run. After her husband's defeat, and shortly before she gave a speech to the National Council for Research on January 2005, she changed back to Teresa Heinz." Dont you wonder why she dropped "Kerry" as her last name? I wonder if John still has that yaght? You know the one. The one he registered in a different state, in order to avoid paying taxes on it? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/07/23/john... http://bostonherald.com/inside_track/inside_t... Whatever dip sh!t |
Judged: 2 1 1 NO! And that's what you'll NEVER get straight. "Liberals" didn't "blast" Romney for buying and selling business. And there is absolutely no sense in any further explanation in the hopes it will sink in about the WAY he did it. And "Liberals" don't hate business. Bad business practices? Yes! Predatory business practices? Yes! Using the American tax payers as a financing arm for their ventures? Yes! Externalizing their liabilities to the American tax payers while internalizing their out-of-control profits? Yes! Forget it. There's just no sense in it. You'll never get it because you don't want to. If you did that would just take away your preffered reason for hating, disliking, or whatever you want to call it, the other side. |
Judged: 8 8 8 Did I blurt out the truth again?????????? |
YES THEY DID. And your own media clowns said they "blasted" Romney. But, since you refuse to own up to your own hatred, whatever. You won't ever admit that you had the Republicans and business in this country. |
Every detraction from what you believe has to be hatred doesn't it. But every detraction YOU have isn't hatred is it. So if they are our media clowns why is it you pick up so readily on their term "blasted". If they are clowns to you it would seem like you wouldn't want to be using their term and appear like a clown also. |
Judged: 1 1 1 |
But okay, lets go with the term blasted. Romney should have been blasted for his demeaning the 47% he believes are inferior because they don't make the income on par with his so they don't have to pay any federal income tax. Of which I remind you was Reagan's doing.
Romney should have been blasted for saying he wanted to repeal ObamaCare in total when ObamaCare was fashioned after RomneyCare in MA. Not saying a thing about if it was so bad why he didn't think his own plan in MA should be repealed. Romney should have been blasted for his lack of patriotism for keeping his vast fortune offshore so he didn't have to pay U.S. taxes yet he wanted to be the chief executive of this country. Romney should be blasted for attacking the national debt that he wants no part of in relieving by keeping his fortune offshore so he doesn't have to contribute to its revenue. Yet he wanted to be the president of that country? Why should be the question. To get more out of this country than he is willing to contribute to as he has always done. There is so much more but I'll stop here. Keeping ammunition in the cache. |

Continuing with its Fusion family rollout AMD has now officially launched their A-Series of accelerated processing units -- or APUs. Unlike the low-power flavor of Fusion chips already on the market, the C-Series (Ontario) and E-Series (Zacate) for netbooks and budget laptops, the A-Series (Llano) was designed with desktops and mainstream laptops in mind and will be the first from AMD made using a 32-nanometer manufacturing process.
AMD is taking direct aim at Intel's Core 2011 processors with seven laptop APUs across three families, available as the A4, A6, and A8. The dual-core A4 chips will compete with Core i3 processors, while the quad-core A6 is going after i3 and i5 chips, and the quad-core A8 will take on Intel's range topping i5 and i7. Here's a quick look at their specs:
Model | CPU clock | CPU cores | L2 cache | Radeon GPU | Shaders | GPU clock | TDP |
A8-3530MX | 1.9GHz/2.6GHz | 4 | 4MB | HD 6620G | 400 | 444MHz | 45W |
A8-3510MX | 1.8GHz/2.5GHz | 4 | 4MB | HD 6620G | 400 | 444MHz | 45W |
A8-3500M | 1.5GHz/2.4GHz | 4 | 4MB | HD 6620G | 400 | 444MHz | 35W |
A6-3410MX | 1.6GHz/2.3GHz | 4 | 4MB | HD 6520G | 320 | 400MHz | 45W |
A6-3400M | 1.4GHz/2.3GHz | 4 | 4MB | HD 6520G | 320 | 400MHz | 35W |
A4-3310MX | 2.1GHz/2.5GHz | 2 | 2MB | HD 6480G | 240 | 444MHz | 45W |
A4-3300M | 1.9GHz/2.5GHz | 2 | 2MB | HD 6480G | 240 | 444MHz | 35W |
All models support features such as HDMI 1.4a, DisplayPort 1.1, and USB 3.0, as well as multi-monitor setups, 3D gaming and 3D Blu-ray playback. A-Series chips will also offer the option of adding a separate discrete graphics card on top of the bundled GPU, in a setup called AMD Dual Graphics that is said to boost graphics performance by up to 75%. Furthermore, AMD is also touting 10-plus hours of battery life, or 50-60% more than comparable laptops from last year.
In terms of pricing, systems with the A4, A6, and A8 chips are expected to start around $499, $599, and $699, respectively. AMD expects more than 150 laptops and desktops to use A-series parts starting almost immediately. Toshiba has already announced the new Satellite P700, equipped with the AMD A6-3400M, while HP has updated eleven of their Pavilion and ProBook laptop models to include the latest AMD parts.

Got something to say? Post a comment-
its pretty sad AMD and websites have resorted to attacking Intel graphics, when all Intel has done is made what little they had, better, and AMD jumps on them like they're king of the effin jungle. AMD is doing this because the CPU side of their APU's offer nothing over their current Phenom's which is a lackluster and inefficient micro architecture. Intel never said that their old or new IGP/HD Graphics were designed to take on AMD or nVIDIA, only saying they are up to descrete graphics card level, albeit low end ones. AMD is a CPU chipmaker first, yet they got nothing to take on big blue, so they resort to cheap shots. man the eff up AMD! if Intel one day purchased nVIDIA, AMD would be fighting them with lawyers instead of some weak *** GPU comparison tests they try to embarrass Intel with.
Ah, the trolls got an early start on this story ^ Colour me surprised!
Maybe we should let the reviews speak for AMD, and their positioning with regards Intel and Nvidia...
Haha first guest just got WTFPwnd. If the graphics are better then why not flaunt it. Worst case scenario for us is intel finally get of their arses and stop holding back tech because of no competition.

Thanks for the link to the Tom's hardware one, AMD does actually have a serious graphics horse with the A8 APU! and almost doubling the battery life over what Intel has?! thats impressive!
Good sir if I may have 2 please!
Intel fanboy tears are delicious.
Even though the CPU is seriously lacking today's horsepower compared to Intel, I'd still like one of these laptops. With the emphasis that is being placed on GPU's nowadays (even browsers), a good GPU is almost essential. I wish they would've redesigned the CPU's but I know why they didn't. Either way, the $200 bucks or less I maybe saving over a Intel laptop, I think I'd put towards the purchase of an overpriced SSD.
Im glad AMD is getting some marketshare in this category if this turns out to be true, i do wonder tho how they managed to manipulate the numbers to tell a 75% increase in gpu performance while adding a discrete gpu, either it is the increase from the build in gpu (which means the discrete gpu is too weak or the build in is too OP) or it is a 75% increase from a discrete (which means the discrete is crap).
Anyway this segment is not something branded at my needs.
I'm waiting for 28 and 22 nanometer processors, 35W TDP is high and 45W TDP is too much for a notebook... I want a more efficient thing.

That's quite the quote. For one I don't think it's all about the die size that determines efficiency. Most of the inefficiency today seems like it stems from the amount of time it takes for voltage to go up and down. For two, the smaller you go, the harder it is to prevent power leaks. I remember reading a few years back that while Intel had already moved down to .45 nm processing, AMD was still refining its .65 nm process with the help of IBM.
I'll take the bottome one for use in a tasty lttle HTPC please .. then in years to come, when I move up to 4kx2k Ultrares, I can just ad another low power consuming discrete GPU. Whilst still saving the planet and my electrobills.
Amd just needs a bit of software that leverages their APU's .. like Games??
Which is the most popular operating system worldwide? not really windows, it just sells the most
Hey, but vga tdp + gpu tdp = 45W is good result
* Sorry I meant CPU+GPU :)
45 watt sounds pretty good, but i expect 32nm to be lower, also.
I built a low power low heat desktop around AMD 605E, supposed to be at 45 watt tdp.
So, when stressed, my computer uses at most 75 watts, per kill-a-watt.
That chip hasn't been available for over a year, so it is pretty old in CPU years.

My first summit of Rainier. Great climb and mountain! Me and three other SP'ers (Mickowitsch, Hotfeet & gcap) were lucky to get a nice weather window. Would love to go back and climb a different route. 2nd Summit - July 12, 2012: via the Kautz Glacier. Great climb and again perfect weather made for a successful day! | ||

RomaK | Second Time on DC Date Climbed: Jun 14, 2009 | |
Great moonlit night and a beautiful day in the midst of a weather system that brought afternoon thunderstorms to the upper mountain. Climbed above a sea of clouds. Took 3 days this time, feels much more pleasant despite the fact that I was not in very good shape. | ||

skyward22 | simultaneous success and dissapointment Date Climbed: May 21, 2009 | |
Wanted to go after Liberty Ridge but couldn't due to the road closures in early season; very dissapointing as this was to be a test piece for me. Ended up summiting via Ingraham glacier in what was a long snow slog. Only had to cross 2 open crevasses. | ||

TheRootster | Emmons Glacier | |
With Jill and Alton. This climb was amazing. The eastern skyline at dawn on the way up was one of the most beautiful scenes I have ever experienced in my life. The climb was pretty straightforward (thanks, Alton, if you're out there, for leading the way) but it did take a lot out of me (Alton had the pedal to the metal--we blew by several parties on the way up). Weather was perfect. Everything was perfect. Now, when I'm in Washington or flying over and see the mountain there in all its glory, I think, "Wow, I stood on top of that puppy," and it still blows me away. A truly satisfying mountaineering experience that rates five stars on my "Highlights of Life" list. | ||

Mitch and I negated the Ingraham Direct route up and took the DC down. We climbed with Paul & Chuck of Ft. Lewis. Quit stealing my Oxygen! No wind, warm and tons of crevasses. Daily thunder and lightning in the afternoon with snow or hail. Clear at night and into mid-day. Conditions repeated June 11th, 12th and 13th .. | ||

alpine climber | white outs and sunshine on the finger Date Climbed: Jun 6, 2009 | |
Our party of 3 climbed through clouds at Paradise and into sunshine, where we camped near the Fuhrer Finger. Great conditions on the Finger. We were on the summit for 5 minutes before a lenticular cloud hit us. Started down the DC and the clouds broke when we entered the crevasse fields. The Finger was a fun route cause we felt like we had the mountain to ourselves. | ||

sourstraw | Emmons Route Date Climbed: Jun 2, 2009 | |
Climbed the Emmons Route direct on June 2, 2009. Very windy at Camp Schurman, but no wind at all once we were on the corridor. Spectacular conditions - we were able to ascend the route directly over the bergscrund on a large snowbridge. The last several hundred feet before the crater rim was solid blue ice which required some careful steps. We had the entire summit to ourselves. Descended via the Winthrop Traverse due to extremely hot conditions, and we weren't sure what the snow condition on the steep direct ascent face would be like. Made it to the summit around 6:30 in the morning, took a long break at the summit and a few breaks on the way down ... back at camp by 1 pm. Tired, but exhilarated! I had been weathered off the mountain in 2007 and 2008, so this was my third attempt - victory is sweet! | ||

Camped on the flats and took the Ingraham Direct. Summitted around 0545 and had the summit to ourselves for about an hour. Incredible. This marks my 3rd attempt and 2nd summit. I would certainly camp at the flats again. | ||

mcpherma | 2nd attempt Date Climbed: Apr 24, 2009 | |
Made it to about 11700 and turned back due to wind. Sky was clear and beautiful, but the wind was a little much for a fair weather climber. | ||

skotty | Great climb Date Climbed: May 25, 2009 | |
Summited via the Ingrham Direct on an amazingly sunny day. A 4-person rope team broke through a bench into a cravase only 20 minutes after my team crossed it. I punced through in another up to my knees. The day before I summited a guide fell into a steam vent on the summit and got airlifed out. | ||

Great stretch of weather. An AAI client broke the snowbridge in Ingraham's first big crevasse and the incident turned away 13 climbers. Another member went down 200 meters from the summit with cerebral edema. After another member bonked in the middle of the summit crater, I was the only one to stand atop the true summit from our team of four. | ||

Plot Summary:
Shrek is feeling over-domesticated in the fourth installment. He has lost his roar. It used to send villagers running away in terror. Now they run to him and ask him to sign their pitchforks and torches. To regain his ogre mojo, he strikes a deal with Rumpelstiltskin. The pact goes awry and Shrek must confront what life would be like in Far Far Away if he had never existed. That translates into Donkey being forced into cart-pulling duty, fat and lazy Puss in Boots trading his sword for a pink bow and the underhanded Rumpelstiltskin ruling the kingdom.

This week, I bought a ZAGGmate Keyboard.
Unpacked, charged, tried to pair it with the iPad, only to find that it was DOA.
OK, **** happens, brought it back, got it exchanged.
Charged it, pulled out the plug, out came the socket with it.
Just like that, without putting exccessive force on it.
Extremely pissed, I went back and got another one.
Never even got as far as charging it, because when I tried to put my iPad in, that plastic angle you need to pull up for resting the iPad against it came out and I found that one of these little hinges was missing.
Thsi time, they refused to exchange it, because according to them, this was a mechanical fault caused by some kind of wrong handling on my side.
All discussions were fruitless, so I took it back home and thought I might glue some metal hinge on to get it to work.
So, I pluuged it in, the blue light came on, it charged and I even managed to pair it.
Only... it stopped working a few minutes later and went dead when I moved it to work with it on my lap.
That really pissed me off.
For me, 99 Dollars is money, and shelling it out for some useless piece of crap isn't my favourite thing to do.
As I was stuck with this dead junk now, I decided I might take as well take it apart and check it out.
Well... the inside is even worse than the outside. No wonder this thing didn't work.
First of all, the micro USB-socket is soldered on only with two tiny bits of solder. This HAS to come off sooner or later.
Furthermore, checking the soldering with a magnifying glass, I saw that there was a piece of solder stuck between two leads. I guess this caused it to short out. Overall, the soldering is very bad, as though they soldered it with a wrong temperatore.
Then, the keyboard-connector was half loose, it hadn't been properly stuck into the socket.
The whole construction is just stuck together with loads of adhesive tape.
I remember this kind of 'workmanship' from stuff we bought in the seventies of the last century, but in the 21st century we live in now, I would have expected production-methods to have developed a bit.
Taking a close look at the aluminum, I guess the fact that the keyboard itself didn't work might actually have saved my life. The edges hadn't been treated properly, the danger of cutting your wrists on that isn't all that small.
All that I can say about the ZAGGmate Keyboard is: Keep your hands off!
Getting one faulty item can always happen. But three of them, all with different faults... where is their quality-control? Paying 99$ for a piece of bent aluminum and a little keyboard, I at least expect some decent quality.

Same-Sex Marriage
5:27 pm
Tue December 4, 2012
Mother, Son Reflect On How Ballot Measure Affects His Planned Wedding To Boyfriend
Many same-sex couples in Washington were planning to get married whether or not the state sanctioned their union. That includes Spike Huntington and Nick Chandler-Klein of Seattle, who are planning a wedding next summer.
Spike's mother, Susan Huntington, is planning to make the trip to Seattle from Newport, Ore., for the ceremony. Correspondent Chris Lehman recorded a conversation on Skype between Susan and Spike.
Susan: "I was just thinking about what this passage of the same-sex marriage law in Washington is going to mean to our family event. Do you think it's going to make any difference?"
Spike: "You know, it's really interesting, because for me, I want to say no. Because I was planning to get married, for years and years and years, even before I met the man that I fell in love with, right?"
Susan: "Right."
Spike: "But in terms of this specific day with Nick, it's something that having the legal recognition was not important. Yes, it's something I wanted. And I'm glad that we have that now. But this, for me, was more about saying, this is about us. This is about our friends and our family and recognizing the thing that we share, not necessarily being validated by somebody else."
Susan: "You didn't plan to be the poster boys for Washington's same-sex marriage then?"
Spike: "Right, right."
Susan: "I'm just really excited about what's to come. I'm really excited for the wedding and I'm excited for all of our friends and family who are thrilled about it. This ballot measure hasn't made any difference as to how happy we are about your relationship with Nick being formalized to the extreme that was possible. And now it's got more possibilities and I'm really happy. I'm happy for you and Nick, and I'm happy for everybody else that is on this cutting edge of history."

Pedigree paralysis no more
Primary wholesalers that only buy direct from drug manufacturers will be indirectly affected. But Scott Melville, senior vice president at the Healthcare Distribution Management Assn. (HDMA), which represents primary drug distributors such as Cardinal Health and smaller competitors, points out that his members will have to pass pedigree information, which the FDA has defined, to the secondary wholesalers. So in a sense, the FDA requirement also puts an onus, though an indirect one, on the primary wholesaler.
"Our members are working through that right now," Melville explains. "Between now and December 1, there is going to be a lot of discussion going on between us and our secondary wholesaler customers."
Those complexities help explain why the HDMA and the FDA would prefer to see a national, uniform pedigree requirement that applies to all drug distributors. Moreover, different state pedigree requirements also argue for a national standard. Two states already have pedigree requirements, and each is totally different.
The Florida law, which went into effect on July 1, essentially exempts drug wholesalers who buy any of about 30 specified drugs direct from the manufacturer and sells them direct to a drug store or other provider. In that instance, Florida requires the wholesaler to provide what is termed a direct purchase pedigree, which is simply a notation on an invoice. That is not a big deal.
But if the distributor sells those same drugs to a second distributor, the first distributor must supply a pedigree with lot number and transaction dates for each unit. That is a much bigger deal.
California is tougher
However, while that second instance is onerous for distributors, it doesn't come close to the burden imposed by the new California law that requires all distributors in that state to pass along lot number, transaction data and serialization numbers for each unit as of January 1, 2007.
A number of distributors, manufacturers, and pharmacies are currently pleading with the California Board of Pharmacy to delay the entire pedigree requirement for one year.
The looming California deadline underlines the importance to the industry of securing congressional legislation establishing a national pedigree standard. So far, RFID Act is the only game in town. That's the one requiring drug manufacturers to use a track-and-trace technology—such as RFID—tamper-indicating security measures, and blister security packaging when possible. It is sponsored by Rep. Dan Burton (R-IN), a senior House Republican, who introduced it in March.
Burton is the number two ranking Republican on the House Government Reform Committee, which held the hearings on drug packaging security and counterfeiting July 11. Given the shortness of time left in this year's congressional session, it is difficult to envision the House acting on the bill in 2006. However, stranger things have happened. The Senate version was introduced by Sen. David Vitter (R-LA).
Cardinal's RFID pilot
Meanwhile, with the California serialization requirements and the RFID Act in mind, wholesalers are accelerating testing of RFID tagging. Cardinal embarked on an RFID pilot last winter which spokeswoman Angela Gardner-Meleca says goes beyond other industry pilots. Cardinal has integrated the RFID tagging into its normal production operation for full batch sizes of oral solids that Cardinal purchases from one manufacturer. Gardner-Meleca declines to identify them. The two products go to one specific retailer, again unidentified.
"Our packaging lines run at full speed, and we are reading those tags at warehouse typical entry and exit points," explains Gary Dolch, executive vice president for quality regulatory affairs at Cardinal Health. Dolch adds that because the pilot is ongoing he cannot comment on the read rates Cardinal Health is achieving.
Dolch states that Cardinal Health believes the FDA action on pedigrees is very valuable.
He explains: "It immediately improves supply chain security while putting more emphasis on the need to develop RFID as a true business capability. The ultimate value of RFID lies in its business strengths, not in any specific regulatory requirement." Cardinal Health 's packaging group is also looking at the potential use of two-dimensional barcodes to satisfy pedigree requirements.
