Fastest Mac GPUs with full EFI boot screens, etc, GTX570 & GTX580
Now that OS 10.7.3 finally supports GTX5xx GPUs we sunk some extra effort into these cards. Got a few tips and hints from Netkas that got us moving.
I present the fastest Mac Native GPU EVER. GTX580 3GB running in 10.7.3. Card shows EFI boot screens on either DVI port. Also have GTX560 going. Will announce GTX570 separately. Requires external PSU, but this GTX580 kicks AMD/ATI 5870 to curb, leaves for dead, and never looks back. Last edited by MacVidCards; Apr 25, 2012 at 04:27 AM. |

Everything works as per the 5870 too? Shame I just bought a 6870 but given this needs an external PSU perhaps the 570 is actually the better bet? |

A flashed 5870 only has boot screen on one (1) VGA adapted DVI port.
These GTX5xx cards have boot screens on either port connected however you like. OSX has had support since 10.7 for GTX5xx cards but requires some minor hacks. The EFI screens will work all the way back to a 2008 3,1 but will require 10.7 or later for 3D. |

I'm extremely happy with the 6870 working properly, no issues as of yet and I'm confident enough in it for me to sell the 4870! |

Holding on for the new Mac Pro (sigh, if they ever are updated) to see what graphic card options they will have.
Just a shame we have to resort to all these gorilla methods for getting a reasonable powerful graphic card for our workstation class machines. But yeah, I'm sure both AMD and nVIDIA could release their own cards with EFI and drivers if they bothered, like ATI did once for the Radeon 3870.

Any FCP X?
0 |
Apr 20, 2012, 12:32 PM | #9 |
I would love to get an Nvidia card, but I work with FCPX a little and probably will in the future so that's out of the question. It's built to take advantage of OpenCL exclusively so ATI is my only chance. However that means I miss out on CUDA acceleration in Adobe Premiere which I also use. OpenCL support for 2011 MBP's is being added to Adobe CS6, but that's the extent of the support for now. I trust Adobe to create more cross compatibility over Apple.
Don't expect anything other then ATI cards in Macs for the long haul. No way they would write FCPX from the ground up to take advantage of all any Mac can offer and then create hardware that can't use it anymore LOL. At least I would hope not haha. |

Not ALL NVidia cards, as there is an incomplete driver set. But it worked fine on my old GeForce 8800 GT. So I guess that means a good question is if OpenCL is working on these cards. |

Apr 20, 2012, 12:43 PM | #11 |
I'm hopeful Mac Pros will suport the HD7970. OpenCL scores are off the charts.
Tempted though to get the GTX580 in the mean time. |

Question for all you guys who know a lot about GPUs. I was planning on buying a 6870 (for the diablo III releaase) for my 2009 MP. Is there an nVidia card that has roughly the same price/performance ratio *and* that has at least one mini display ports? Thanks Loa |

One of the reasons I am excited about GTX5xx series cards is that they are far more likely to have DisplayPort. Displayport to MiniDisplayport is just a $20-30 pin-for-pin dongle. In fact, if you buy a Quadro 4000 for Mac it has Displayport and comes with the adapter I mention here.
We have a GTX470 with Displayport but those were very rare. The use of Displayport is far more prevalent in the 5xx series. I have a couple cards sitting at Newegg Will Call right now, will have updates on a Mac EFI Native GTX570 with 2.5 GB and Displayport. (pretty sure that is what I ordered). Also getting a smaller EVGA GTX580 3GB. (the Classified Ultra that posted the above scores is quite large) Will probably make a modded version that can run in Mac Pro with no outside power. Turn down clocks and voltages a notch and BINGO...will be fastest INTERNALLY POWERED Mac GPU. The cards we are making require soldering and a rewritten BIOS and EFI. There is nothing from stopping Mac users at large from plugging a PC GTX5xx card in, as I have posted in other threads, the current drivers for OSX that Nvidia has on their site are capable of making these cards work in ANY MAC PRO. You just won't have boot screens. (and some versions of Beta updates don't work) All we have added in the last 24 hrs is working EFI for boot screen support. |

GTX570 EFI up and running !!!
Still have to iron out the DisplayPort but shouldn't be a problem. I got it working on a GTX470, this is quite similar.
2.5 GB of GDDR5. Nice little card. I have added some 5870 benches EDIT: Good news !!! Got GTX570 to run with Displayport and DVI as outputs. No need for external power, full boot screens on either display. This includes an Apple MDP display like 27" !!! 2.5 GB of DDR5 and it only needs 2 @ 6 pins...so no special adapters needed. Super sweet card if you use CUDA. Will also be adding more Dual DVI cards. Running at full PCIE 2.0 5.0 GT/s speed. (most flashed cards run at 2.5 GT/s, the speed of a 1,1 Mac Pro...but the Ebay vendors don't mention this since they have no clue how to make it work right) Last edited by MacVidCards; Apr 22, 2012 at 06:24 PM. Reason: Added some 5870 benches & GTX570 news |

Week 16: 49ers at Seahawks (Game Thread)
The Seahawks and 49ers are eerily similar teams. Both tend to play better in the second half of games than they do in the first, Seattle moreso than San Francisco. Both teams feature strong defenses; the 49ers' defense has fared better than Seattle's this season, but the difference isn't as great as you might think:
Rush Yds/Att Allowed |
Pass Yds/Att Allowed |
Comp. % | 3rd Down Conv Allowed (%) |
1st Half Pts/Game |
2nd Half Pts/Game |
Int/Att % | Sack % | |
Seahawks | 3.7 (4th) | 6.9 (11th-T) | 60.4 (17th) | 35.3 (10th) | 10.9 (13th) | 8.6 (6th) | 4.4 (2nd) | 5.7 (24th) |
49ers | 3.3 (1st) | 6.9 (11th-T) | 58.8 (10th) | 35.1 (8th) | 4.9 (1st) | 8.1 (3rd) | 4.1 (4th) | 6.3 (18th) |
Likewise, both teams' offenses depend heavily on their ability to run the ball to bolster their passing attacks. When and where they've both found success in their running attack, however, is an entirely different story:
Rush Yds/Att | Rush Yds/Game | Rush TDs | Rush Power (Total) |
Rush Power Left |
Rush Power Center |
Rush Power Right |
Seahawks | 3.8 (27th-T) | 103.9 (22nd) | 13 (10th-T) | 76% (1st) | 70% (9th) | 89% (4th) | 67% (9th) |
49ers | 4.2 (16th) | 125.0 (9th) | 11 (14th-T) | 47% (31st) | 58% (26th) | 36% (29th) | 44% (24th) |
(As noted in this article, the rush power stat just shows the percentage of run plays the team ran on 3rd and 4th downs with two or less yards to go that resulted in either a 1st down or a touchdown. Short yardage runs in 1st-and-goal and 2nd-and-goal situations are included as well.)
As you can see, the 49ers have been pretty good at racking up plenty of yardage, but when it comes to grinding out those tough yards, well, they've been coming up short all season long. Assuming this trend holds true, the Seahawks have a good shot at forcing the 49ers to beat them with Alex Smith's throwing arm. Of course, the 49ers will be doing their best to bottle up Marshawn Lynch to force the Seahawks to rely heavily on Tarvaris Jackson, but there's a big difference between bottling up an injured Frank Gore and stopping Beast Mode when he's within spitting distance of the 1st down marker.
This game is winnable; the Seahawks are on a hot streak, they have home field advantage, and they have more riding on the outcome of this game than the 49ers. Remember, if the Seahawks don't win this week and next, their slim playoff hopes are sunk. By comparison, the 49ers are just jockeying for better seeding, having already locked up a playoff berth by winning the division, plus they're working with an extra-shortened week of preparation following a draining win over the Steelers on Monday Night Football.

My truck doesnt have a DIC either so I do my gas mileage manually every time i fill up as well. I was only getting 14 around the city when everything was stock. Once I installed the leveling kit It dropped slightly, then I removed the front air dam below the bumper and wow my mileage dropped by nearly 2mpg. Then I installed 22" rims with 305/45 Nitto Dune Grapplers and it dropped slightly again. So around the city I was getting 11-12mpg. it was running me $85 every 4-5 days -_- I installed a Bully Dog Triple Dog GT near the end of January and I'm back up to 14-15mpg thankfully. Plus I was able to recalibrate the speedometer so everything was running correctly. That programmer was by far the best investment ever made. Not only am I getting better gas mileage, but I can tap the gas and she takes off like a rocket. I rarely ever drive strictly highway so I couldnt tell you what I get highway mpg, but last summer i drove to the OBX and was getting 16-17 so I'm assuming I'd be getting around 18-20 now.

Bought me a hypertech tuner, downloaded program on pc the installed it on the tool. hooked it up to truck and followed prompts and PRESTO, Shift points are better and so is the MILEAGE. Im at 358 miles right now and just hit a 1/4 tank (3/4 gas used) That is where my low fuel light would come on! I hope to see 430 miles outta this tank. which will put me around 17-18 MPG highway. I am excited! 17-18 MPG isnt bad with 285 nittos....

House Lawmaker Target Of Ethics Investigation
By Kentucky Public Radio
Frankfort, KY – The Legislative Ethics Commission is concerned about a letter Louisville Rep. Tom Burch sent to three appellate court judges. The letter, on legislative letterhead and signed "Tom Burch, State Representative," seeks a favorable ruling in a parental rights case involving one of Burch's constituents. One of the judges complained about the letter and the Ethics Commission has voted to investigate. "We took evidence from the parties involved and the commission voted that there was probable cause to believe that one of the ethical statutes had been violated."
That's Ethics Commission Chairman George Troutman, who says a hearing in the matter will be held December 16th. Rep. Burch issued a statement saying his motives were pure and he does NOT believe his actions violated any laws. He says he looks forward to telling his side of the story at the hearing.

Its' free and it takes less than 1 minute!
Sorry for the delay, here follows my stuff. I'm really disappointed with the result and i'm thinking to try again.
As I'm still working on the next assignment, I'll leave this open for a bit. If you want to post more of the exercise or haven't done so yet, hurry
After we have covered the basics (read: cubes and ellipses) things become a bit easier for me to set up I think. Two more assignments with ellipses are coming up, and some shadowconstruction after that.
Check out the Industrial Design of the Week activity! :: Or become a fan of IDW on Facebook! :: Yoitisi Island: Mentoring in Industrial Design Drawing
My sketchbook :: My CA Gallery :: My blog: guidokuip.blogspot.com
Time to get some critiques up in here
Arttorney: I already made a few comments on your work here and there, so I'll keep it brief. Apart from keeping in all of the construction lines and watching your line wheight, try not too hard to get the ellips to fit all the points you set out the first time around. If you focus too much on those points, the ellipse will become more like a diamond shape. It is more important to get a nice ellipse than to get it to fit in the points. If you missed the marks the first time, try to correct it on the go while continueing the movement for the second round and so on into the third. You might end up having three or four ellipses that miss one or more points, but the combination of them should convey an ellipse that fits.
UnSharpened: Looking good Not much to add here, only keep an eye on the bleed of your markers. I think you're using paper that allows the ink to bleed quite a lot, which makes the shade go over the edges and messes a bit with the shape of the cilinder. When adding the core shadow, make sure the first layer of marker is really dry, because right now the core shadow has bled all the way up to the outline of the cilinder. The cilinder on its side is explained in assignment 6
Enrigo: Funny thing, you've got a correct cilinder on its side and one that is way off (the right one) in the same image. Check the next assignment for those Several small issues: since you're working with pencil, I suggest you try to get a bit more of a gradient out of it for the shading. I explained that it's hard to do so with markers, but with pencil this should be easy. Also, try to play around a bit with line wheight. Right now you made all the important lines heavier, but you might want to compare it with the cubes and which lines you make heavier there.
D-Holme: For those lines, try to keep making them in one fluent motion instead of building them up with little strokes. Especially the top right image suffers from this, as the ellipses all look a bit rough. It also really helps to get the shape right for the ellipses, as in my experience to draw them in one motion works better than to build them up from different strokes. For the rest they look okay, and the toilet paper rolls look better in terms of those lines already. For the cilinders, keep in mind that the lower ellipse is more round than the top one. In some of them you do that, in some you don't. Take care with the one lying on its side, as you've drawn it as if it's on eye height (we only see the side and front because the central axis is horizontal). As for the example Seedling posted, they are usefull but there are easier ways to draw ellipses instead of first constructing the square around it first
Hamtaro69: Good to hear you're still doing the inital exercises as well, it helps to get more control over your motions even for ellipses You seem to have taken this lesson quite well, I've got little to add. You've probably found that drawing more round ellipses is harder than the flatter ones, as more of the first went wrong if I look at your drawings. Take care with using green for drawing lines though, as in some cases the whole theory about line wheight doesn't really work if you start using color. For some colors the lines will only become more colorfull instead of 'heavier'. Might be just the picture though, I'm not sure
Asmodie: Don't get too depressed The top left cilinder looks most like a real cilinder, even thought the central axis is slightly at an angle. With most of your ellipses though, I think you focus a bit too much on the points you set out as guidelines. As I said to Arttorney, this causes your ellipses to become more like a diamond shape as you naturally try to connect the dots instead of focussing on the ellipse shape. Getting the ellipse to look like a proper ellipse is more important here than to really hit all the points.
Legato: Yep those templates are usefull sometimes I have one for circles and some for random curves, but they are rather vulnerable. Anyway, for now we're not going to use them. For the ellipse practice, you might find it useful to try them in between vertical lines as well, as you already have a start for a cilinder that way. Also, always add the major and minor axis to guide the ellipses. Especially the more round ellipses would benefit from it. Next time try to stick a little bit more to the exercise I set up please. They have a certain set-up that lets you experience things you wouldn't immediately see when just palying around. Making fun of the theory is cool and all but some more seriousness wouldn't hurt either I think. For example, those cilinders on the last sheet all are above and below the horizon making them look rather huge, but if these weren't rolls of toilet paper but something less recognizable we would read them as being huge. The cones and tube you added are something we'll dive into later on. Ah, and drawing on the wrong side of the paper does sometimes happen indeed
Jorge Gecov: I think the biggest issue for you is getting some more control over your arm movements. You might want to try some of the earlier exercises as well as the current assignments to train yourself. Apart from that, I think you've grasped the theory (the cilinder on the side looks good apart from a few things with perspective and point of view, check assignment 6 ). Even when working with pencil though, the idea of the core shadow still applies. So if you shade your cilinders, keep in mind that bounce light from the environment makes the outline of the cilinder on the darker side a bit lighter again. Also, the lower ellipse should be more round than the upper one, as the last one is closer to the horizon and therefore appears to be flatter.

Bank card number
Payment card numbers are found on payment cards, such as credit cards and debit cards, as well as stored-value cards, gift cards and other similar cards. Some card issuers refer to the card number as the primary account number or PAN. They have a certain level of internal structure and share a common numbering scheme. Bank card numbers are allocated in accordance with ISO/IEC 7812. The bank card number merely identifies the card, which is then electronically associated by the issuing organisation with one of its customers and then to the customer's designated bank accounts. In the case of stored-value type cards, there is no necessary association with a particular customer.
An ISO/IEC 7812 card number is most commonly 16 digits in length,[1] and consists of:
- a six-digit Issuer Identification Number (IIN) (previously called the "Bank Identification Number" (BIN)) the first digit of which is the Major Industry Identifier (MII),
- a variable length (up to 12 digits) individual account identifier,
- a single check digit calculated using the Luhn algorithm.[2]
The bank card number differs from the Bank Identifier Code (BIC/ISO 9362, a normalized code - also known as Business Identifier Code, Bank International Code and SWIFT code). It also differs from Universal Payment Identification Code, another identifier for a bank account in the United States
Major Industry Identifier (MII)[edit]
The first digit of a credit card number is the Major Industry Identifier (MII) (see ISO/IEC 7812), which represents the category of entity which issued the card. MII digits represent the following issuer categories:
- 0 – ISO/TC 68 and other future industry assignments
- 1 – Airlines
- 2 – Airlines and other future industry assignments
- 3 – Travel and entertainment and banking/financial
- 4 – Banking and financial
- 5 – Banking and financial
- 6 – Merchandising and banking/financial
- 7 – Petroleum and other future industry assignments
- 8 – Healthcare, telecommunications and other future industry assignments
- 9 – National assignment
For example, American Express, Diner's Club, Carte Blanche, and JCB are in the travel and entertainment category; VISA, MasterCard, and Discover are in the banking and financial category (Discover being in the Merchandising and banking/financial category); and Sun Oil and Exxon are in the petroleum category.
Issuer identification number (IIN)[edit]
The first six digits of a card number (including the initial MII digit) are known as the issuer identification number (IIN). These identify the institution that issued the card to the card holder. The rest of the number is allocated by the issuer. Cards are issued by the issuer through an issuing network. The card number's length is its number of digits. Many card issuers print the first four digits of the IIN on their card, just beneath where the number is embossed, as an added security measure.
In the United States, IINs are also used in NCPDP pharmacy claims to identify processors, and are printed on all pharmacy insurance cards. IINs are the primary routing mechanism for real-time claims. Each processor has one or more IINs, which it divides into plans by using Group Number and Processor Control Number fields.
The IIN database and membership is currently managed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)[3] and is updated monthly. ANSI is responsible for allocating IIN ranges to the issuing networks. The IIN database was previously managed by the American Bankers Association.
Online merchants may use IIN lookups to help validate transactions. For example, if a card's IIN indicates a bank in one country, while the customer's billing address is in another, the transaction may call for extra scrutiny.

On November 8, 2004, MasterCard and Diners Club formed an alliance. Diners Club cards issued in Canada and the United States start with 54 or 55 and are treated as MasterCards worldwide. International cards use the 36 prefix and are treated as MasterCards in Canada and the United States, but are treated as Diners Club cards elsewhere. Diners Club International's web site makes no reference to old 38 prefix numbers, and they can be presumed reissued under the 55 or 36 IIN prefix. Effective October 16, 2009, Diners Club cards beginning with 30, 36, 38 or 39 have been processed by Discover Card.[14]
Effective October 1, 2006, Discover began using the entire 65 prefix, not just 650. Also, similar to the MasterCard/Diners agreement, China Union Pay cards are now treated as Discover cards and accepted on the Discover network.
Whilst the vast majority of Visa's account ranges describe 16 digit card numbers there are still a few (40 as of 11 Dec. 2013) account ranges dedicated to 13 digit PANs and several (439 as of 11 Dec. 2013) account ranges where the issuer can mix 13 and 16 digit card numbers. Visa's VPay brand can specify PAN lengths from 13 to 19 digits an so card number of more than 16 digits are now being seen.
Switch was re-branded as Maestro in mid-2007.[15] In 2011, UK Domestic Maestro (formerly Switch) was aligned with the standard international Maestro proposition with the retention of a few residual country specific rules.
Canadian Bank Card Numbering[edit]
Canadian banks issue bank cards to access account also follow a pattern for their systems:
Issuing network | Ranges | Length |
CIBC Convenience Card | 4506 | 16 digits |
Royal Bank of Canada Client Card | 4519 | 16 digits |
TD Canada Trust Access Card | 589297 (regular debit) | 19 digits |
Scotiabank Scotia Card | 4536 | 16 digits |
BMO ABM Card | 500X | 16 digits |
HSBC Canada Card | 56XX | 16 digits |
Other codes[edit]
The Card Security Code is typically the last three or four digits printed on the signature strip on the back of the card. On American Express cards, the Card Security Code is a printed (not embossed) group of four digits on the front towards the right.
The Card Security Code (CSC), sometimes called Card Verification Value (CVV or CV2), Card Verification Value Code (CVVC), Card Verification Code (CVC), Verification Code (V-Code or V Code), or Card Code Verification (CCV) is a security feature for credit or debit card transactions, giving increased protection against credit card fraud.
There are actually several types of security codes:
- The first code, called CVC1 or CVV1, is encoded on the magnetic stripe of the card and used for transactions in person.
- The second code, and the most cited, is CVV2 or CVC2. This CSC (also known as a CCID or Credit Card ID) is often asked for by merchants for them to secure "card not present" transactions occurring over the Internet, by mail, fax or over the phone. In many countries in Western Europe, due to increased attempts at card fraud, it is now mandatory to provide this code when the cardholder is not present.
- Contactless card and chip cards may supply their own codes generated electronically, such as iCVV or Dynamic CVV.
To reduce the risk of credit card fraud, various techniques are used to prevent the dissemination of card numbers (sometimes called the primary account number, or PAN). These include:
- Format-preserving encryption – in which the account number is replaced with a strongly encrypted version which retains the format of the card data including non sensitive parts of the field such as first 6 and last 4 digits. This permits data field protection without changing payment IT systems and applications. A common use is for protecting card data from the point of capture in a secure reader to the payment processing host end-to-end to mitigate risk of data compromise in systems such as the Point of Sale (POS). AES-FF1 Format-Preserving Encryption is defined in NIST Specification SP800-38G.
- PAN truncation – in which only some of the digits on a card are printed on receipts. The PCI-DSS standards dictate that only the first 6 and last 4 digits of the PAN may be printed on the receipt. Generally only the last 4 digits are provided elsewhere to allow an individual to identify the card used.
- Tokenization – in which an artificial account number (token) is printed, stored or transmitted in place of the true account number.

Teen's diary lands her a movie deal
Middle school may conjure up bad memories of braces and unfortunate haircuts for most, but one 15-year-old is about to see her eighth grade year reimagined on the big screen.
Maya Van Wagenen was having a tough time fitting in at school, but instead of renting "Mean Girls" or consulting Seventeen magazine for tips, she turned to the 1950s book "Betty Cornell's Glamour Guide for Teens." She kept a diary of what it was like living out the old rules in modern times.Penguin was so interested in her "Dear Diary" moments that they signed a six-figure deal with the teen, and now Dreamworks wants in on the action.
Amy B. Harris, the brains behind "Sex & The City" and "The Carrie Diaries," signed on to the project to write the script. So is being a "rules" girl and wearing a girdle the key to middle-school popularity? Maya's diary-cum-movie will reveal all.

The disputed 2007 presidential election sparked off ethnic fighting that killed more than 1,000 people, and observers warn there is an unacceptably high risk of repeat violence around Kenya's March 4 vote. A chaotic primary vote this month and outbreaks of deadly violence around the country have done little to instill confidence that peace will prevail.
Kenya's election commission says at least 1,014 international observers and more than 10,000 local observers have been accredited.
"We hope our ongoing engagement on electoral preparations combined with the presence of election observers from the U.S. government, international partners, and Kenyan groups before and during the election will help ensure that the electoral process is free, fair and peaceful, thereby giving the Kenyan people confidence in the legitimacy of election results," U.S. Embassy spokesman Christopher Snipes said.
The U.S. is encouraging Kenyans to put aside tribal and ethnic differences, reject intimidation and violence, demand an end to impunity and to address any electoral disputes through Kenya's courts, rather than on the streets, Snipes said.
The European Union observer team will be smaller in number than in 2007—70, down from 132—but will spend more time in the country analyzing the buildup to the vote, said Gillian McCormack, deputy head of the EU observer mission.
Kenya has introduced political reforms to address the flawed 2007 polls. A new constitution passed in August 2010 has put checks and balances on government bodies.
A report this month by the Council on Foreign Relations listed several reasons to fear violence might reoccur: the country's top presidential candidates are mobilizing voters along ethnic lines; the vote is likely to be very close; the election commission will be unable to fully prepare for the election; and one presidential candidate faces trial at the International Criminal Court for violence perpetrated after the 2007 vote.
"The United States and others may have limited leverage over Kenya's domestic politics, but they are not without options that would significantly improve the prospects for acceptable elections and help avert a major crisis," the report said. "However, with little more than two months before the elections, Washington must intensify its engagement or forsake its opportunity to make a difference."
The U.S. is financially supporting observers from the Carter Center—run by former President Jimmy Carter—and the largest Kenyan group of observers, said Snipes.
The International Crisis Group said in a recent report that high youth unemployment and inequality encourage the growth of criminal groups and militias who want to intimidate political opponents.

Put the offense out there and let them win it. Instead, he sent a punter out there to throw a pass in an absolutely wicked wind. Ugh, still ticks me off.
Only thing I might have done differently was send the offense out there to go for 2. We were hot. Line up the O, and get it done. That said, the play was there. Nebraska never saw it coming. The biggest error was not putting JT as your starting holder on Day 1.

There's almost always a bad play or a mistake made for every good play. That's why the game is four quarters and 12 games in a season to get it settled.

Originally Posted by Cycsk No Nebraska fans felt good after that game. It was definitely a moral defeat for them. They know that they won on a fluke. And as ballsy as the call was in the game, it was equally ballsy to stand by your player during the press conference the next week. CPR gave a history of what the kid had done and said that he would call his number again the next week if necessary. CPR is just awesome. How do you learn how to say things like that? You don't learn it, you just do it because it is genuine. You wouldn't think it walking out of JTS. All I could hear was a bunch of Nebby fans screaming their "GO BIG RED" cheer, like they had just won the conference. The smart fans were quiet, but there were a lot more that were celebrating like it was a big win. Perhaps it was. I just reminded them that they squeaked by an unranked team, as a team that was supposedly going to win the conference. Before that game, I had a younger fan (mid-20s) claim that Nebby would win that game by at least 40 points, straight faced. I would have loved to run into him after the game. The older fans knew that ISU was a threat, and they were lucky to get out alive. There's a big difference in NU fans between the older fans, which I will agree are probably some of the best fans in college football, and the younger fans, who are complete d-bags.
Man, it hurts watching the replay. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUKwSN57i7I]Nebraska Vs. Iowa State 2010 Football - YouTube[/ame]
It hurts, it hurts bad, but I think this season's two overtime wins make up for it.
Don't care, we are back in a bowl game this year so I am not thinking about anything that happened last year. That loss does not hurt much anymore.
Originally Posted by MaccloNe Larger by the hour? Not. That is a sad place to be. Do you enjoy living inthe past? I think you are missing the OP's intent of statement. I don't think he's living in the past, (nor enjoys it) just making a comment about how 1 play can change or effect the future. That one gutsy call (which was the right call) but really didn't get executed very well, as per CPR. "If" it did, this thread wouldn't be taking place. But he's correct, the publications will always put us last until we prove we belong at the top. Sure, we'd have gone to a bowl game last year, we would've qualified. #5 or #6 out of the Big XII, (whatever) That one play (unexecuted) right now is what is keeping CPR's resume' from reading 3 straight bowl games in as many years as he's been our coach. Doesn't change too much in the long run... We all know we got the best coach in the country! GO CYCLONES!!!
Could be that it ends-up saving us some money and needed time.
I disagree with the OP. I think beating OSU to get bowl eligible has completed washed away the Nebraska OT fake all together. Had ISU not won last weekend, and continued to lose out this year, then it would have continued to loom larger than ever. That ghost of Nebraska has been exercised.

In-depth strategy guides, player attributes, team rankings, along with incredibly detailed recaps of our season play. We don't reminisce, we just keep playing!
When I think about all the fakes Rhoads has pulled off, the guys conversion rate is very good. Fake punt on NU 09 Fake field goals(?) on UNI/TTU last year. One may have been a punt though Onside kick vs Texas last year Fake punt vs Mizzou Onside vs OSU Fake punt vs Kansas The only 3 I can think of that didn't work were the fake pat vs Nebraska, and onsides vs Baylor and Iowa(09). 6 to 3 conversion ratio is pretty damn good. Can anyone think of another attempt?
I'm not so sure even a good throw gets completed there, looks like Haag was in a pretty good position to at least knock down any throw.
I still like the call. It hasn't bothered me at all. Maybe some day we will get to play Nebraska in a bowl game and you will have redemption and easy nights sleeping.

The Cat is out of the Bag

About Me Casual Adventurer
I'm a traveling performer and I use this XXL Duffel Bag as my Primary Luggage for out of town and out of state shows. I carry my clothes and T-Shirts that I sell. The capacity is tremendous, It could double a a car cover for a Mazda Miata. The Bag itself was a Great Value for the price I paid. The construction is sturdy and has held up well when I use it to carry my laundry up and down stairs on laundry day. The retro colors on the bag look great and definitely stand out when I claim my luggage at various Greyhound stations across the southwest. My only complaint is the strap can get uncomfortable after wearing it for a while. I find my self switching positions or carrying it by the handles a lot
Best Duffels Ever
By MBBBCHILL
from Seattle, Washington
This is my third duffel (2 XXL, 1 XXXL). I bought two the first time for my daughter for out-of-state college. So that means it endured airport travel. Loved it so much that I picked up another one for my other child. The best duffels ever!!!

Good extra bag for intl. traveling
By rebeks
from Copenhagen, Denmark
Bought this while vacationing in CA (live in Europe) as we seem to have a chronic problem every time we travel to the US - we come home with at least one extra bag. This time we were there for 5 weeks and it was looking like we were going to need two extra bags, so we went to REI to get something that hopefully would not explode in transit. Had on a previous trip bought the North Face duffel, I think the large, (which we also had with us), and intended to get another of those, but got the REI duffel instead. This thing is great for what it is, which is an old-school capacious duffel bag that is lightweight and packs small, and it is GENIUS that you can pack it into the included "toiletries case". The TNF duffel would probably be ok if you dropped it on a landmine, and that's not the case with this one, but if you're going on some trans-Himalayan pilgrimage you are not going to do it with an REI duffel, I hope. We're two parents with a teething baby and a mountain of STUFF that we needed to get back to Europe, plenty of adventure for us. We stuffed the bag to the gills (we are already referring to it as "the body bag") and it showed up in pristine condition. Its size did not trigger airline outrage, but we did have to think about what we put in it to keep the weight at the limit because it is just so huge.I agree with the previous reviewer that it would be a nice touch with some compression straps across the zipper, especially in the large sizes. Obviously having used it once so far I can't really speak the durability of the zipper or straps, but the checkout dude promised me that it was totally guaranteed for life, and we had no trouble with it popping or breaking in spite of being mashed into a rental car, lugged through airports, and presumably tossed and kicked by airport guys (SFO-Frankfurt-Copenhagen). Given its packability, this will be no problem to wedge in somewhere on future trips and we'll always have an extra (huge) bag with us. At this price it's the perfect bag for our needs.

Big Enough
By 90Duck
from Bend, OR
I bought this bag to store and tranport a Tributary Sawtooth inflatable kayak. It is just big enough around to accommodate the rolled up IK, with room for seats, pump, and a throwbag on the end. Works great for keeping everything in one place in the garage, and makes it easy to grab and go to get out on the water.So far so good on durability, but we'll see how it holds up. A pair of compression straps across the zipper would be great additions to make sure the zipper doesn't blow out and to decrease the overall bulk when loaded.
Simple, quality, and BIG!
By Twin Dad Matt
from Gardiner, Maine
Bought this to store my backpacking gear in on a flight, and it worked great! Fit my pack, sleeping bag, tent, pad, poles, boots, and a few more things in it. It held up great through all the baggage handling. Stowes nice and small in the included pouch. Now we use it for filling with tons of clothes on family road trips, and it's great for that, too.

Big ol' duffel
By zamboni
from Asheville, NC
For the money, this is a pretty solid duffel. The cloth weight is not completely bomber, so you can't outright abuse this guy, but it gets the job done and doesn't add a lot of weight. I've used it on several car-camping trips and a couple of times as checked baggage on planes, carrying camping and bike gear. It has not yet incurred an oversize-baggage fee, although by my math it is technically 2" larger than the 62" airline standard.Due to the size and packability, it is floppy unless filled with very rigid stuff. The four grab handles and neck strap, used in combination, make it manageable but i'd hate to lug this thing any more than a couple hundred feet. However i *love* that it packs into the little bag. This makes it easy to store in the bottom of a pack once you reach your destination, where you forget about it until you have to re-pack your stuff to head home.One caveat: I enjoy folding things, and i can get this back into the bag, nice and flat, without much trouble. If you do it right, it's not a big deal, but otherwise can be a pain. If there were some handy folding instructions printed on the inside lid of the storage sack, that would be really nice!

roomy but not for air travel
By Wood worm
from Charlotte, NC
Bought this bag to protect my backpacking gear while in transit to the west coast. While the bag fit all of my backpacking gear after the first trip to and from the west coast it has holes. Apparently the fabric is not durable enough to withstand the normal wear and tear of airline travel. These holes appeared even though their was no signs of excessive abuse. Thus its a great bag if you are traveling by train or car but I would not recommend it for air travel.

By Megan Segura, Daily Makeover
Britney Spears The only thing more certain than celebrity breakups are the makeovers that inevitably follow. Looking good is the best revenge, after all, and Britney Spears is ready to show ex-fiancé Jason Trawick what he'll be missing. The blonde star recently showed off her new hair color at the annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards.

This isn't the first time Britney has been a brunette. Remember her wedding photos with ex-husband Kevin Federline? This time around, however, Britney has chosen a lighter brown hue, which really flatters her skin tone. This makeover is a definite upgrade.

Background and Objectives:In October 2005, an earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale, struck Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) of Pakistan. It is estimated that more than 40,000 people lost their lives, 3,000,000 people were rendered homeless, and about 75 per cent of the houses, commercial units, health facilities and administrative buildings were severely damaged.
The humanitarian community responded very rapidly, bringing essential relief to affected families. The inaccessibility to some of the worst hit areas and harsh winter conditions made the relief operation an extremely difficult task. UN-HABITAT provided winter shelter including materials and tools to 7,000 occupants of 1,000 communities. Kits of tools and materials are reusable in permanent shelters.
Activities:The main activities include:

April 22, 2013 Manufactured RunsThe King in Cubbie BlueRobert W. Chambers was one of the more successful authors in what may well have been the heyday of written fiction in America at the turn of the previous century, and he's an interesting example of how writers were far less constrained to a single genre back then. During his lifetime, Chambers was mostly known (and read) for his romantic fiction, which produced several bestsellers. He also wrote war stories and historical fiction, as well as a handful of illustrated children's books. Nowadays, to the extent he's remembered at all, it's for his contributions to the field of horror. His best-remembered work is a collection of short stories called "The King In Yellow," which contains several stories about a play titled (yes) "The King In Yellow." Chambers only ever quotes from the first act, which characters describe as banal and innocent. The second act, however, is so terrifying and horrible (and so filled with awful truths) that it drives those who read its text or see it performed utterly insane. Chambers never reveals the contents of the second act in full, only hinting at its contents obliquely: The idea of a book or performance that can drive one mad has been borrowed and tweaked by countless horror writers since, most notably H.P. Lovecraft and his legions of imitators. Now, most tropes in horror literature can be linked to real-life phenomena that serve as inspiration. Stories of vampires, for instance, draw their inspiration from diseases like anemia and porphyria, and also the pre-Victorian practice of burying people before they had in fact actually died. The notion of the haunted house owes much to the sounds houses make as temperatures shift, as different building materials expand and contract at different rates and make creaking noises in the night. Stories like "The King in Yellow," then, seem to find their closest real-life analogue in Cubs baseball. I would be accused of many things (not least of which is a lack of self-awareness) if I were to say that the madness produced by Cubs baseball affects only the team's managers, but it seems to affect them with a particular ferocity. There is of course Lee Elia's profanity-laced tirade (if you're somewhere where Elia's tirade will not cause problems with co-workers or family, you can listen here). Dusty Baker made comments that at best caused raised eyebrows, like when he talked about how African-American and Latin-American baseball players could withstand warm weather better than white players. A beleaguered Lou Piniella coined the term "Cubbie occurrence" to describe the numerous problems that befell the team during his tenure. At one point, it was decided that one man was simply not enough to manage the Cubs and an entire college of coaches was tried (rather disastrously it should be noted). Now the insanity bug seems to have hit manager Dale Sveum. When asked about his team's two key players, Starlin Castro and Anthony Rizzo, he talked about how if players don't perform they "lose their jobs." Sveum continued to talk in this vein: 8 comments have been left for this article.

iPod lock protects your iPod
If you're worried about your iPod getting stolen, this is an anti-theft case that locks your iPod to whatever you want. So if you've ever thought to yourself, "Hey, I'd really like to leave my iPod locked to this fence," now you can do it. One more picture after the jump.
Toy company Asuka Kobo has created an iPod case out of wood. Which looks pretty neat, I guess, but completely goes against the clean sleek look of the iPod. People buy iPods to be hip, not to look like an old grandpa. They might as well include some dentures and an etching of A... / Continue →
