I actually really like it Even though it has the word 'god' in it I don't actually notice it or associate the name with God.

I'm going to have to be honest. Yes, Godfrey would definitely cause teasing, at least around here. I also don't think of it as a "timeless classic" (but that doesn't mean it's a bad name). Kids and society are cruel. As a MN, it would be great.

Good Luck!

I like it! Sure "God" is in it, but lots of names have inteteresting words involved and do just fine. If it were me, I would use it as a middle name though, just because while I think its cool I know many may not like it was their name, but a middle, awesome! Love that it has family significance to you as well.

Thanks for the reply, I have been trying to think along alternative lines but I think Gottfried with no German connection would be to difficult to explain and I know a truly awful Geoffrey who has put me off the name for life. Maybe the Italian Giotto? My husband (Sean) has forbidden any crazy Irish spellings after a lifetime of misplaced 'h' and 'w's. Also I'd still prefer Godfrey. Oh dear.
Many thanks for all the input, maybe we need to go with it as a middle name. Thus the search begins again.Last edited by norbury; December 13th, 2012 at 09:10 PM.

GAINESVILLE — What a difference a year makes.
Just ask Will Muschamp.
"I feel much better standing here today than I did a year ago," the second-year coach said following the University of Florida's spring football scrimmage Saturday.
Who could blame him?
With inexperienced players at key positions and a rash of injuries — including the loss of starting quarterback John Brantley for part of the season — the 2011-12 Florida Gators reminded you of one of those posters that feature a kitten clinging to a tree branch with the phrase, "Hang in There."
Now, Muschamp finds himself with a team that features a more experienced offensive line, an improved defensive front and, oh yeah, there is this whole quarterback situation.
Florida still has questions at quarterback, but for the first time in two seasons, those questions don't involve the word "if" but the word "who."
Jeff Driskel and Jacoby Brissett were tossed into the fire last season following the injury to Brantley. While both have played well this spring, no one has emerged as the clear-cut favorite to win the starting job.
They're forcing Gator Nation to ask: Team Jeff or Team Jacoby?
"Last year, unfortunately, we played both of them," Muschamp said Saturday. "Right now, I'm really happy that both of them played."
That experience — against some of the toughest competition the SEC had to offer — set the stage for this year's quarterback battle.
Driskel with his mobility and maturity. Brissett with his cannon-like arm and charisma.
Both have youth, experience and talent and both provided Gators fans plenty to talk about following Saturday's game.
There was Brissett's 43-yard pass to freshman wide receiver Latroy Pittman in the second quarter that set up the first touchdown of the day. There was Driskel hooking up with Andre Dubose for a 44-yard completion in the third quarter that drew oohs and aahs from the announced 38,100 fans in attendance and helped set up a tying score for the Blue team.
Driskel finished 12-of-14 for 147 yards, while adding 19 yards on four carries and a 1-yard touchdown plunge. On the flip side, Brissett was 9-of-16 for 233 yards and two touchdowns.
"Jeff is a great quarterback," Brissett said when asked about his competition with Driskel. "He can make every throw that I can make, so we will just have to see the real difference is."
"There is always going to be competition," Driskel added. "I think that has made me better."
While Saturday's game did little but fuel the debate about which player should start against Bowling Green on Sept. 1, it did provide a sense of optimism going into the 2012-13 season.
Now comes the precious summer months, when players are forced to work out without the watchful eyes of the coaches. Muschamp believes the time could be key for whoever is ready to command the starting quarterback job.
"It's about managing our team in the offseason," Muschamp said. "They have to take control of our football team."
Tragedy strikes Minnesota: The University of Minnesota was stunned by the tragic passing of linebacker Gary Tinsley, who passed away Friday morning. The 22-year-old was found dead in his campus apartment and the cause of death wasn't immediately known. "It's a very, very sad day for our football program and for our young men," coach Jerry Kill said in an emotional press conference. "We lost one of ours today in Gary Tinsley, who I know is in a good place."
Future of BCS: The future of college football's postseason model might have cleared a bit according to documents obtained by USA Today last week. According to the website, officials are considering four options to replace the current Bowl Championship Series. One option being considered is a "plus-one" format that would involve selecting two teams to meet for the national title following the completion of the bowl season. Another is a four-team playoff that would involve the four highest-ranked teams at the end of the season meeting in semifinals. That is unless it involves the Big Ten or Pac-12 champion or both. In that case, those two teams would play in the Rose Bowl while the next two highest-ranked teams would play in the semis. Two teams from those three games would then meet in the national championship game.
Petrino's troubles: No one is having a worse week than Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino. After crashing his motorcycle on April 1, the 51-year-old admitted that he lied about details concerning the crash, eventually revealing he had a 25-year-old female employee with him. He initially said he was alone during the accident before admitting to the school's athletic director, Jeff Long, that he lied. Petrino, who is married with four children, issued a public apology and revealed he had had an inappropriate relationship with the employee. The school placed him on paid administrative leave on Thursday while it looks into the situation and the Arkansas State Police have reopened the crash investigation.
Fear the Roo: Since his hiring in December, Terry Bowden has quickly put his own stamp on the Akron football program and nothing is more evident of that fact than when the school announced its new slogan for this upcoming season, "Fear the Dadgum! Roo." Terry's father, Bobby, made the word dadgum famous during his days as head coach at Florida State and now Akron has embraced the concept with its new marketing campaign, which includes T-shirts.
Spring fever: Florida State and Miami highlight the start of ESPN's coverage of college football this spring. The World Wide Leader in Sports will air spring games from 12 different schools on ESPN3 starting Saturday. The Hurricanes kick off the coverage at 2 p.m., followed by several other games, including defending national champion Alabama at 3 p.m. Florida State's spring game will kick off at 4 p.m.

Families of prisoners find hope at Agape House
Hope Lindman, the owner of Duluth's long-gone Highland Supper Club, was looking to sell her home on North Pike Lake Road during the 1980s when the house found another calling.
Hope Lindman, the owner of Duluth's long-gone Highland Supper Club, was looking to sell her home on North Pike Lake Road during the 1980s when the house found another calling.
Unable to sell the property, she went to the men's group at the Pike Lake Community Presbyterian Church with another idea. Lindman decided she was going to donate the home to the presbytery so that it could be used by families visiting prisoners at the nearby federal prison camp, which had opened a few years before.
"She came to us and said, "I'll give you the house, providing you use
it as a mission for family members of prisoners,'" recalled 92-year-old Warren Lundeen, a member of the men's group. "That's how it all got kicked off. I think we were really the first in the state to have a functioning place like that."
The home opened to families in 1986 and was renamed the Agape House of Hope. "Agape" is a Greek word meaning "God's unconditional love" and "Hope" is a tribute to carry on the legacy of Hope Lindman, who died in 2006.
The house continues to operate today, and it has served several thousand families over the years, according to church members.
"It's a do-good project," said Lundeen, a member of the church since it opened in 1954. "Thousands of women and children have gone through there to get shelter and get support and have someone to talk to."
The Agape House is open to wives, mothers, sisters and children of prisoners at the Duluth camp. No boys over the age of 12 are allowed to stay at the home.
Because the camp holds prisoners from around the country, families often travel long distances to visit. With many families struggling financially without support from the fathers, the Agape House eases the financial burden of visiting by providing free shelter. The cupboards are stocked with pots and pans along with canned soups and boxed foods like macaroni and cheese.
The house relies on donations of food and home products from individuals, churches and community members. The house also has numerous volunteers, and prisoners from the camp are brought in to perform maintenance work such as mowing the grass and washing windows.
Bobby Pederson volunteers as the housemother at the site. She is not paid, but is allowed to live in a basement apartment. Pederson said she often gets to know family members on a personal level.
"God sent me here and planted me here," she said. "Some churches have turned their backs on the prisoners and families. ... Christ doesn't turn his back on them."
The Agape House has occasionally received criticism for helping the families of prisoners — rather than the victims of the crimes. However, Rev. Graden Grobe, the former Pike Lake pastor who helped establish the Agape House, said the families are victims, too.
"I feel as though helping families is a vital thing," he said. "We see many divorces in these situations. I admire these wives for trying to make a go of it while their husbands are in prison for 8 to 10 years or something. That's a long haul. These women, these families have difficult financial circumstances, and they're trying to carry a heavy load."
Additionally, numerous biblical verses relate to helping prisoners. The brochure for the Agape House includes Matthew 25:36, which states: "I was naked and you clothed me; I was sick and you visited me; I was in prison and you came to me."
The Duluth camp is a minimum-security facility and holds mostly white collar, non-violent criminals. Politicians, businessmen, bank presidents and even clergymen have often been among the population.
Grobe, 91, had been involved with the prison even before the Agape House was opened. When it first opened, he worked as a prison chaplain.
Now retired, Grobe has been volunteering at the camp for the past 15 years. He goes in every Friday afternoon and visits with any inmates who want to speak with him.
"Anybody that's in prison has been told by society that they are not fit to live in the general public," he said. "They have been removed from society and put into a place where they are constricted, confined and isolated. But I want to indicate to them that God has not rejected them."
Grobe called the Agape House a "miracle" for the families of the prisoners. He said that remaining active with the prison and the home keeps him mentally and spiritually stimulated.
"We have the opportunity to offer these wives and children some love," he said. "They put up with a lot to get here."

The Northern State University Symphonic Band will present a spring concert, Semper Fidelis to America in collaboration with the Huron High School Symphonic Band at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Johnson Fine Arts Center.
The NSU Symphonic Band is under the direction of Boyd Perkins. The Huron band is directed by Lawrence Peterson.
Admission cost: $7 for adults, $5 for seniors and free to NSU students, high school students and younger with student ID. Proceeds go to NSU music scholarships.
The concert will open with the Huron band presenting popular works for wind band by composers Ralph Vaughan Williams, Aaron Copland, Brian Balmages and Jaime Texidore.
To say that we are excited about this upcoming concert would be an understatement, Peterson said. Huron band students would be thrilled with the opportunity to simply hear the amazing talent of the Northern State University Symphonic Band, but to be given the invitation to share the stage with them is truly an honor.
The NSU Symphonic Band will present an energizing and eclectic collection of well-known works for wind band in addition to two engaging and familiar transcriptions, Perkins said.
The band will open with the fast-paced spinning sounds of Ron Nelson's Rocky Point Holiday, which was originally written for the University of Minnesota band. The contrasting orchestral transcriptions on the concert include the Barber of Seville Overture from Rossini's opera of the same name. The themes from the overture were made famous to Baby Boomer cartoon watchers by Warner Brothers and Chuck Jones in Bugs Bunny's Rabbit of Seville.
The band will also play a transcription of Malcolm Arnold's Four Scottish Dances, which depicts both the humor and heaviness of the music of highland Scotland.
The band will keep the concert's pace moving with three concert marches from around the world, including a salute to the United States Marine Corps with John Philip Sousa's Semper Fidelis March, which is the official march of the U.S. Marines Corps.
The concert will honor America with a big finale featuring NSU voice instructor Darci Bultema, accompanied by the combined forces of the NSU band and Huron High School band with Carmen Dragon's America the Beautiful.

The particles enter the atmosphere in the ionosphere, at the latest 100km over ground, and let the air particles lighting. The aurora lights violet, red or green, depending on the chemical composition of this layer, and it moves in the wind. Polar lights appear at the same time in the Arctic, there they are called Aurora borealis (Northern Lights), and in Antarctica Aurora australis (Southern Lights).

"I've always thought of the
as a truly American band," says Kurt Neumann, the founder, primary writer and frontman of the veteran Milwaukee-based group. "We were blue-collar kids straight out of the heartland-how could we be anything else? 'Roots rock' was a label I fought when I was younger, but I came to realize that if by 'roots' you meant blues, rock, country and soul all slammed together into one sound, then I'd say yes-that is the sound of American-made music."
Neumann fully embraces that notion on American Made, the BoDeans' eleventh album. Its dozen songs are laced through with strands of indigenous roots elements-Heartland hoedown folk ("American," with guest Jake Owen spinning out the guitar solo), Celtic-rooted mountain music ("Walk Through This World," "Flyaway"), zydeco ("Everything You Wanted"), Southern roadhouse soul ("Don't Bring Me Down"), Chicago blues ("Shake the Fever") and 100-proof roots rock ("All the World"). These tracks are played with heartfelt emotion as well as jaw-dropping skillfulness by the band-Neumann on vocals and guitars, original member Michael Ramos (Patty Griffin, John Mellencamp) on keyboards and accordion, longtime BoDeans bassist Ryan Bowman and new member Warren Hood, a fiddle/violin virtuoso from Austin.
As it turns out, the album title bears a thematic resonance as well as a stylistic one. With American Made, the BoDeans have created a soul-stirring song cycle that directly reflects the American experience at this critical moment in our history. The album-which also includes a powerful rendition of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire" - was inspired by Neumann's blue-collar upbringing and his desire to express what a great country America remains, despite its troubles and the challenges facing it today.
"As we've moved into the new millennium, we've begun to question our identity as Americans-who we are, or who we want to be," says Neumann. "With the onset of the Tea party and the Occupy movement, it feels like we're pulling in two very different directions. The song 'American' talks about this land of 'endless possibility'' and 'Where else in the world you ever gonna find this kind of ideology?' We're lucky to have the rights and opportunities that we have, but I believe those rights come with a responsibility to help each other along. It's wrong to stockpile millions or billions of dollars while all your neighbors struggle to survive. It feels like we're losing the common sense that has always guided us, and that worries me. We're so out of touch with each other-and just trying to find an American-made product has become almost comical. I wanted to bring that all of that to the surface-hence the album title." If American Made is about resilience in the face of daunting obstacles, the same can be said of the unforeseen circumstances that led to the album's creation. Sam Llanas, one of the original members, left the band last year in order to launch a solo career, the news coming just one day after the release of the band's previous LP, Indigo Dreams. When Llanas quit, Neumann could have thrown in the towel, but he chose to stick with what he'd begun nearly three decades earlier as the band's driving force and the architect of its sound. So he and his fellow band members cinched up their belts and carried on. Since then, Neumann has discovered that while unexpected change can be difficult, it can also be revitalizing.
The first order of business was to come up with a cohesive batch of material-Neumann didn't realize going into the process that it would yield what amounted to the most intensely personal songs he'd ever written.

Kerry Kennedy, daughter of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and ex-wife of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, took the stand Wednesday in a DWI trial stemming from a 2012 traffic accident and repeated her claim that she mistakenly took a sleeping pill the morning of the crash.
She said that she never felt the effects of the powerful sleep aid in her system.
Kennedy is facing a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated for allegedly swerving between lanes and careening into a tractor-trailer on a Westchester County, New York, interstate in July 2012. She drove away from the accident scene despite a shredded tire, and was found collapsed over the steering wheel of her Lexus SUV a short time later, according to testimony.
Kennedy has said she swallowed a pill she believed to be her thyroid medication at around 7:30 the morning of the incident, but that she may have mixed up medicine bottles and taken zolpidem, a powerful sleep aid, instead. A blood test confirmed the presence of zolpidem in Kennedy's system, according to trial testimony this week.
"I now know thanks to the tox lab that I must have taken the sleeping medication by mistake," said Kennedy, looking at the jury as she testified.
Kennedy said she made cappuccino, had some carrots, prepared bags for the gym and office and had no problem leaving her apartment and getting to her vehicle the morning of the accident.
Her memory from that morning ends just before she entered the highway, Kennedy said. The next thing she recalls is a knock on the window of her SUV, and a man she thought was a police officer asking if she was OK.
"I was confused by that because I thought I was fine," she said on the stand.
During a contentious cross examination, Kennedy insisted that she would not have stayed behind the wheel if she'd felt the effects of the medication.
"If I'd realized I was impaired, I would have pulled over," she told prosecutor Doreen Lloyd, and also said she doesn't know what the side effects of zolpidem might feel like.
"You've taken this pill for 10 years and you can't tell me whether or not it makes you feel tired after you take it?" Lloyd asked.
"I guess I don't really think about how I'm feeling when I take it," Kennedy replied. "I take it, and then I'm asleep."
The jury has heard testimony from 15 witnesses in the case, and could begin its deliberations Thursday. Defense attorney William Aronwald told CNN Wednesday afternoon that a forensic pharmacologist was the only remaining defense witness.
Sitting in court was Kennedy's mother, Ethel Kennedy, and younger sister Rory, who was a defense witness.
Kennedy said she used zolpidem for travel across time zones but had never taken it in the morning. She testified that she normally kept the 10 mg pills in a sealed plastic bag in the medicine cabinet, away from her thyroid medication, but on July 13, 2012, she had both medications on the vanity because she was packing for a trip.
The night before the accident, Kennedy said on the stand, she'd been to a cocktail party but did not drink because she was driving home.
Kennedy opened her testimony speaking about her family background, saying that she was raised by her mother after her father died when she was 8 years old.
"He was killed when he was running for president," she said.
Under direct examination by her lawyer, Gerald Lefcourt, Kennedy described her human rights work and her healthy lifestyle, saying she visited the gym often and kept an organic garden.
At the start of her defense case Tuesday, Kennedy watched with a smile as Rory Kennedy described their close relationship.
"She's really my best friend," Rory Kennedy on the stand.
When asked about her sister's reputation for truthfulness, she said, "She wrote the book called 'Speak Truth to Power' about her commitment to justice and truth, and that's what she has devoted her life to."
A growing group of supporters has sat in the rows behind the defendant throughout the two trial days, including sister Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, brothers Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Douglas Kennedy, and their mother, who is 85.
Jurors heard from Bradley Molloy, a drug-detection specialist with New York State Police who evaluated Kennedy after the crash. Some three hours after she allegedly failed three roadside sobriety tests, Kennedy passed those same tests with flying colors, testified Molloy.
Finding no signs of intoxication, Molloy instead began to suspect that Kennedy's car accident and disoriented state had been the result of a medical condition, he said.

Several sites in Windham are awaiting 'adoption' for spruce-up
Event organizer Lisa Ferrisi, who serves on the town's Conservation Commission, said the main goal is to reach out to area businesses, volunteer groups, not-for-profit organizations and local residents, and ask them to help improve designated areas of town.
That "love and attention" will include removing litter, weeding, and adding colorful plants and flowers.
With materials for the planting and landscaping projects already donated by several area businesses, volunteers can participate in the program free of charge.
Ferrisi said the town has identified 35 potential sites, all of which are awaiting "adoption."
The kickoff is at 9 a.m. in the Community Development Room at the Windham town complex.
Those who wish to adopt a "spot" are asked to sign up for the program before June 1. For more information or to register, visit www.windhamnewhampshire.com or contact Ferrisi at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Shall we dance?
Published on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 by
Ruth Marcus
Read More
If you're thinking tango, West Coast swing or the Cajun two-step, get up and dance.
Maybe you're the belly dancing, line dancing, clogging or ballet type? Go for it! Dance your way through life.
Swaying hips, wiggling bellies and fingers snapping - dancing marries movement to music, entrancing people from Brazilian rain forests to the Kalahari Desert.
People always have danced. We dance to honor the myths of gods and goddesses, lavishing ourselves with costumes or transforming ourselves with masks. We dance to change our moods, to invoke the sacred, to experience ourselves in the magical mixture of movement and release.
We even dance to tell stories without language.
Whatever the beat, we are inclined to move our feet. And if we are hindered by self-consciousness, often a finger tapping or bouncing knee reveals that, deep within, we all are dancers at heart.
What would it mean to dance your way through life?
Begin with these
familiar lyrics: "Put your whole self in, put your whole self out, put your whole self in and shake yourself about. Do the Hokey Pokey and turn yourself around. That's what it's all about."
I can't think of a more simple philosophy for living life. The Hokey Pokey is a circle dance - no need for a partner, no worries about stepping on anyone's toes.
No one is a wallflower, and even those with two left feet can do the Hokey Pokey. Everyone can put their whole self in.
When you're putting your whole self into the dance of life, it means living your life whole-heartedly.
Do you give it all you've got or hold something back, "just in case?" Or does fear hold you back - fear of rejection? Or failure? Or criticism?
When you put your whole self in, you are willing to risk failure. You're strong enough to risk looking like a fool, brave enough to risk making a mistake.
On the other hand, putting your whole self in also means taking the risk of being exceedingly happy, radiating joy and living life to your fullest.
I remember the fun of taking salsa dance lessons some years ago. We'd dance into the wee hours of the morning at the clubs in the Mission District of San Francisco.
Looking back, I realize that putting my whole self in was exhilarating. The music, the joy and the rhythms filled me with energy like nothing else.
Learning a new dance is the same as learning anything new. You need to develop patience. You need to practice. You need to put your whole self in.
The Hokey Pokey says that you also need to put your whole self out. Just as you learn to take steps forward, you also need to appreciate the value of stepping back and retreating a bit.
That might include slowing down, letting things be, not pushing to have everything your way. It might include stepping aside and letting someone else lead.
To me, putting your whole self out includes being willing to accept the ebb and flow of all things. Life has its ups and downs, so the ins and outs are a part of accepting what is, when it is, rather than resisting.
Doing the Hokey Pokey, you also have to shake yourself about and turn yourself around - good lessons, indeed.
Shaking off doubt, fear and resentment is good for your mental health. Shaking off all those old life stories that drag you down is a skillful step that improves the joy of dancing through life.
When you find yourself telling your friend, for the umpteenth time, that your mother or your spouse is to blame for your sad life, consider shaking it off.
Instead of willfully pursuing relationships that don't work, or clinging to outmoded aspirations, turn yourself around. This simple act instantly gives you an entirely different perspective.
When you're stuck in unhealthy relationships, stuck in poor employment situations or stuck in beliefs that you've outgrown, turn in a new direction.
If you've found that you dance to a different beat, be willing to laugh. It may be that you've been dancing the same ole dance for a very long time. Acknowledge that it's time to turn yourself around.
The Hokey Pokey may not be what Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers or Michael Jackson danced, yet dancing through life is as simple and as joyful as you make it, and that's what it's all about.

The link to (The 6.16.211 Update (named as 6.12.181 on the zip file because that is how Motorola names it) is no longer working. Can I use the OTA downloaded update instead?
P.S: If I already am on 6.16.211, do I need to put .211 into SD Card? Or Can I just press option 2 in case I'm stuck with boot loops? Thanks for your hard work!

BadPros: Looks nice not that loud . Cons: Has already started to DIE ! Losing back grounds while on World of Warcraft !!! some times full system crash and the temp is at 33 c ! Other Thoughts: this is a lot of money down the drain . Should have just got the TITAN $1000.00 FOR the same price as these two ! Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Gigabyte 7950Pros: -Quite Cons: None that I can think of other than ATI's driver issues every once and a while. Other Thoughts: This card came with 3 free games, Far Cry 3, Bioshock and Crysis 3 and was the cheapest 7950 @ the time. What a sweet deal. Did you find this review helpful? |
Gigabyte RMA HorriblePros: Handled games smoothly Cons: Gigabyte repair is not worth buying this product. My DVI port went out so I sent it back to Gigabyte's repair center. After waiting two weeks, they told me that my board was warped and the warranty was gone. Now my GPU is broken and they will not work with me Other Thoughts: Don't buy Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Not worth dealing with Gigabyte RMAPros: The card itself was excellent when it worked. I found the Gigabyte cooler to be a very nice design that kept the card cool while also being pretty quiet. I didn't bother trying to tweak or OC anything since I'm only playing at 1680x1050 so I left things stock and was thrilled! Everything was going swimmingly until I started getting artifacts on the screen and sent it in for a RMA. Cons: A full month after receiving the card I get an email from Gigabyte saying they can't repair it, but they'll offer me a R9 280X as a replacement. I'm fine with that and replied to their email saying as much. I don't hear anything for a week so I called them and apparently they're out of the replacement card they offered me. And they're out of the 7950. It'll be 2-4 weeks waiting time and then they'll send me a 7950. So after offering me an upgraded card they don't even have they rescinded their offer and I still have to wait quite a bit more. This was the first piece of Gigabyte tech I've purchased and while I really enjoyed it while it worked it will be the last after this tech support experience. I know they took some time off for the holidays and that the ATI cards are in short supply due to mining but I'm really missing my card, and I'm really annoyed that they offered me a newer card only to withdraw that offer and let me know there would be additional delays. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
GoodPros: As expected. Powerful. Worth every penny. The free games I got were pretty solid, too. Cons: Gets a bit noisy when you hit 80%+ fan speed (what else do you expect?) Did you find this review helpful? |
SkyrimPros: I love modding Skyrim into a next-gen game. Currently it is at 86 gigs with over 1000 added animations. Cons: I tried using it as a personal helicopter - didn't work but I did stay nice and cool while plummeting back to earth ... Other Thoughts: If you had an Nvidia card before this , please don't be like some guys and forget that AMD and Nvidia use different drivers... Did you find this review helpful? |
it worked goodPros: ran everything I had on ULTRA settings with 0 problems ever. Cons: Went to start up the system, and no boot. Opened up the case , found that at the PCI slot where the PSU plugs into, had some nasty yellow liquid around it that totally smelt burnt. pulled out the card to find the back of the board extremely corroded where the PCI plugs are soldered onto the board. No fans spin, does not work in other PCI slots on MOBO. initial PSU still works, and starts up MOBO and all tests. Tried with new MOBO and same problem. Looks like the card is fried over nothing. awaiting RMA through manufacturer to see what awaits. Other Thoughts: if RMA works and I get another because this is some weird problem, this would rule :D. Did you find this review helpful? |
Overheats like nobody's business.Pros: None. There are better 7950s out there for the price. Cons: Overheats easily. When running benchmarks or Litecoin mining, the card will overheat and shut down in about 2 minutes. Manufacturer Response: 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Gigabyte's slow warranty supportPros: The card worked well until it sparked the VRM's repeatedly and finally died. Cons: Card died in less than two months. Gigbyte warranty support is extremely slow to respond and correct or replace. I have alot of Gigabyte product and it performs well. I would hesitate to buy Gigabyte again based on their slow support response. In comparison Newegg support is instantaneous. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
DID NOT HONOR REBATE!Pros: BEWARE. REBATE IS NOT HONORED. If my rebate had been honestly, this would have been a great price/performance deal but I sent in my UPC and paperwork within the time limit and selected a no-wait rebate. When I didn't receive my rebate after several weeks, I contacted the rebate processor only to have them claim they didn't receive my rebate paperwork. When I pressed, they then said that I had 30 days from my registration to challenge the status of my rebate and contact them about the issue. I told them I made a photocopy of the UPC i sent int but they said that the manufacturer doesn't allow them to address a rebate past its term. What a load of stonewalling. I have never mailed in a rebate claim and had the postal service not deliver it. Cons: I purchased this with the understanding that the terms of sale (mail in the required paperwork and UPC and get a rebate back) would be honored in good faith. Instead, it has turned into a frustrating waste of my time and money. Now I am out $25, bringing my costs within range of a 7970 instead. BEWARE! Other Thoughts: I have been a n\Newegg customer for years and purchased high-end Gigabyte motherboards in the past and have been very happy with their quality, which is why I purchased this Gigabyte video card. However, I am NEVER purchasing another Gigabyte product again that involves any rebate. I no longer trust that the rebate will be honored. This is the type of behavior that gives rebates a bad reputation. Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Andrew Luck expects better things from the Indianapolis Colts next season.
After overcoming the temporary loss of coach Chuck Pagano in September, the Colts accomplished things nobody thought possible. The team, projected to be among the worst in the league, won 11 games and reached the playoffs behind Luck and a rookie class that produced more combined yards rushing and receiving than any team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger.
Their magical run ended with a 24-9 loss Sunday at Baltimore. The plan now is to use the offseason to reinforce what looks like a promising future.
Luck says he'll work on his footwork and accuracy, and general manager Ryan Grigson is expected to have more than $40 million to help upgrade the team in free agency, too.

The rain didn't stop volunteers in Luther from helping homeowners clean up the aftermath of the recent wildfires.
Some families lost their homes and everything inside.
Boy Scouts joined about 60 Southern Baptist volunteers to help go through the ashes and try to salvage belongings. Suzy Koch was grateful for the help. She certainly didn't expect for one of the Boy Scouts to find a lost treasure.
"We found a bible that was her great grandmothers and there's some readable scripture on the front of it, 'I am always with you,'" said Boy Scout, Darren Midkiff.
The Southern Baptist volunteers' are from Edmond and Arcadia. They were just in Fort Collins, Colorado but were called back to help out at home.

The Penguin Historical Atlas of the Vikings
Historical Atlases
John Haywood - Author
Viking marauders struck fear into the hearts of ninth-century European peasants, monks and nobles alike for two centuries, but the Vikings were more than seaborne terrorists. This atlas illustrates their influence extending from the Holy Land to Newfoundland, as explorers, settlers, craftsmen and hired mercenaries.

Asus' revamped Netbook reviewed: Eee PC 1008HA
Despite practically inventing the Netbook market with the original Eee PC, Asus has faced some serious competition lately from mainstream brands such as Dell, HP, and Lenovo. Aiming to steal back some of the Netbook buzz, the company has a slick, new take on the Eee PC, called the 1008HA(which Asus also calls the "Seashell," in a fantastic display of awkward localization).
With a super-slim design and some clever engineering, from a custom-molded battery to a collection of hidden ports, this is arguably the best-looking 10-inch Netbook we've seen -- although at $429, it's far … Read more

Dustin Hoffman (born 1937) began acting at the Pasadena Playhouse, where he met fellow actor Gene Hackman. After a string of bit parts in television shows and films, he got his break with 1967's The Graduate. After ten more films and three nominations,
"I lived below the official American poverty line until I was 31."
"About the time I realized we were Jews, maybe when I was about 10, I went to the delicatessen and ordered bagels and draped them around the tree."
"One thing about being successful is that I stopped being afraid of dying. Once you're a star you're dead already. You're embalmed."
About co-star Meryl Streep: "She's an ox when it comes to acting. She eats words for breakfast. Working with her is like playing tennis with Chris Evert—she keeps trying to hit the perfect ball."
Hoffman won the Oscar for Kramer vs. Kramer (1979). Other notable movies include Tootsie (1982), Rain Man (1988), and Meet the Fockers (2004).
Early Life
Dustin Lee Hoffman was born in Los Angeles, California, on August 8, 1937, to Lillian and Harry Hoffman. Though the family is Jewish, Hoffman and his brother were not raised in a religiously observant family. When asked about the family's observance of the holidays, Hoffman once said, "About the time I realized we were Jews, maybe when I was about 10, I went to the delicatessen and ordered bagels and draped them around the tree."
Hoffman's acting career began when at age 19 he dropped out of college to pursue the stage at the Pasadena Playhouse. There, Hoffman befriended another young actor, Gene Hackman. Eventually, the two would move to New York City together, looking for work in television and in off-Broadway plays. An unconventional-looking actor for the time period, Hoffman had difficulty getting roles in an industry primarily looking for pretty faces. To make ends meet, he took got odd jobs and the occasional bit role to pay the bills. He later recounted, "I lived below the official American poverty line until I was 31."
Acting Career
Slowly but surely, Hoffman began building a critical reputation through smaller roles. Soon word of mouth reached Hollywood and in 1966 Mike Nichols invited the young actor to do a screen test for his upcoming movie The Graduate. Beating out Hollywood heavyweights like Robert Redford and Charles Grodin, Hoffman was stunned when he received news that he had gotten the lead role in the film. The enormously popular movie changed the landscape of American cinema in the 1960s and would in turn make Hoffman an unlikely star.
Before returning to the big screen, the newly minted Academy Award nominee acted in a few Broadway productions, one of which garnered him a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Performance. In 1969, Hoffman struck gold again with the gritty Midnight Cowboy, in which he played the part of Ratso Rizzo, a homeless man in New York City. This performance won him a second Oscar nomination.
On a roll in the 1970s, Hoffman acted in more than 10 movies and, after three nominations, finally won an Oscar for his performance in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979). The movie, which costarred Meryl Streep, went on to win numerous Academy Awards. When asked about working with the talented actress, Hoffman said, "She's an ox when it comes to acting. She eats words for breakfast. Working with her is like playing tennis with Chris Evert—she keeps trying to hit the perfect ball."

ohm (ōm) Pronunciation Key
The SI derived unit used to measure the electrical resistance of a material or an electrical device. One ohm is equal to the resistance of a conductor through which a current of one ampere flows when a potential difference of one volt is applied to it. |
Ohm, Georg Simon 1789-1854.
German physicist who discovered the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit, now known as Ohm's law. The ohm unit of electrical resistance is named for him. |
The unit of electrical resistance, named after the nineteenth-century German physicist Georg Ohm.
abbreviation Omega, unit of electrical resistance in the metre-kilogram-second system, named in honour of the 19th-century German physicist Georg Simon Ohm. It is equal to the resistance of a circuit in which a potential difference of one volt produces a current of one ampere (1Omega = 1 V/A); or, the resistance in which one watt of power is dissipated when one ampere flows through it. Ohm's law (q.v.) states that resistance equals the ratio of the potential difference to current, and the ohm, volt, and ampere are the respective fundamental units used universally for expressing quantities.

POPFile 1.1.1 for Mac OS
POPFile is an automatic mail classification tool.
POPFile is an email classification tool with a Naive Bayes classifier, POP3, SMTP, NNTP proxies and IMAP filter and a web interface. It runs on most platforms and with most email clients.
This version is a bug fix and minor feature release. It's also the first release to have the version number 1. This is because we've finally decided to stop pretending that POPFile is 'beta' software.
What's New:
POPFile is an email classification tool with a Naive Bayes classifier, POP3,
SMTP, NNTP proxies and IMAP filter and a web interface. It runs on most
platforms and with most email clients.
This is an important release for several reasons: it is the first to use a
SQLite 3.x database, it is the first to offer a Mac OS X installer in addition
to the usual cross-platform and Windows installer versions, and it is the first
version released since the project moved to its new server.
1. Bug fixes
POPFile now recognizes short TLDs (Top Level Domains) correctly.
POPFile now handles quoted-printable encoded text in multiple lines correctly.
If a message without a SUBJECT line is received POPFile no longer inserts an
empty SUBJECT line.
Fixed the bug that sometimes resulted in POPFile concatenating headers into a
single line instead of appending them.
POPFile now supports lowercase 'user', 'auth' commands.
The configuration file (popfile.cfg) is saved more safely.
2. POPFile improvements
POPFile now uses the SQLite 3.x database format by default instead of the older
SQLite 2.x database format. In addition to reducing the size of the database (a
database using the new 3.x format is about one third the size of the equivalent
2.x database) this change means that it is now easier to use another SQL
database such as MySQL if you prefer.
If POPFile detects an old SQLite 2.x database when it starts up then it will
automatically make a backup copy of the database and convert it to the new
format. This conversion may take several minutes, or even more than half an
hour if the database is very large.
POPFile now automatically reconnects to the MySQL server when it loses the
connection to the server.
The global timeout can now be set to more than 5 minutes.
An error message is now returned to the email client if POPFile finds it is
unable to make the necessary SSL connection to the mail server because of a
missing SSL support file.
The number of 'uninitialized value' warnings output by POPFile when using an
empty corpus has been reduced.
If the mail server does not respond, POPFile now closes the connection.
A new parameter 'pidcheck_interval' is added to set the interval to check the
'popfile.pid' file. If you set this parameter to '0', POPFile will no longer
check the pid file.
For Japanese users the MeCab parser has been updated to v0.97.
The NNTP proxy now supports HEAD/BODY commands (thanks to bkeener).
3. Windows version improvements
The installer now handles any necessary database upgrades before it offers to
start POPFile. This makes it easier for the installer to monitor the progress
of these upgrades. Some database upgrades can take half an hour (or even
longer) if the database is huge and this meant the previous installers
sometimes had to guess when a database upgrade had finished.
The installer has been updated to display the new SQLite 2.x to 3.x conversion
The popfile-service.exe program no longer exits when the user who started the
service logs out.
On some systems when POPFile's system tray icon was used it was possible for
POPFile to lock up or freeze if the cursor was moved over the icon while
POPFile was checking or downloading mail. For this release the system tray icon
code has been re-written to reduce the chance that POPFile will lock up or
freeze when the system tray icon is used.
4. UI improvements
The UI's CONFIGURATION page no longer allows the user to set the UI port and
POP3 listen port to the same value.
