So yesterday I had a series of exchanges with a couple of conservatives about how I think the fact that many Republicans are focusing on Benghazi suggests that they think they're going to lose: they don't have anything else. You can see those exchanges here and here.
The first of the complaints I received about my comment rested on a series of statements about Watergate that I think I fairly debunked in my response. But it also made a reference to how the media conspired to cover up the Benghazi disaster just like the media covered up Watergate.
Which got me thinking.
First, as I said in my reply, the media didn't cover up Watergate, it EXPOSED it. Two entrepreneurial Washington Post — a mainstream media source if ever there was one — reporters, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, were the first to explore the Watergate break in and cover up in any detail. While their reporting did not bring Nixon down (contrary to popular myth), it was their work that turned Watergate from a minor break in to the scandal that destroyed a President. You can read all about it or see their work depicted in their book All the President's Men, or the film version with the same name, starring Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford.
Likewise, it was media sources that broke the story about Benghazi. And, it should be added, broke it quickly: the Watergate break in (and its associated scandals involving the White House operation known as the "plumbers") took years to expose.
The notion that it was a "media conspiracy" to protect Nixon and/or Obama is just absurd.
Second, while my respondent insisted that the media protected Nixon, that certainly would have been news to Nixon himself. My respondent claims to remember Watergate and the era (as do I), but seems utterly unaware that Nixon hated the media. Hated it. The Watergate tapes are filled with his loathing, sneering comments about reporters, as well as his efforts to have the FBI and the CIA undermine reporters' and critics' credibility. It takes a remarkable mind to imagine Nixon as having been protected by the media. That it took years to expose Watergate was not the result of a media cover up. it was the result of the fact that the President of the United States used his vast powers to enact a multi-layered, Gordian knot of a conspiracy. A conspiratorial knot that took a while and several court cases, including one of my favorites, United States v Nixon, to untangle. (I think it's amazing that the government can sue the president in this country. Freaking amazing.)
Third, my conspiratorial respondent also forgets the commercial incentive that media sources have to expose government wrongdoing. Most media is for profit in the US, meaning that if you have a story that is going to generate vast attention—and thus sales, web hits, and other revenue-generating actions—you have a commercial incentive to go ahead with the story. The notion that the media actively protects someone they might make profit from exposing runs afoul of simple commercial logic … and the existence of tabloids, the Drudge Report, FOX News and Perez Hilton. (I am trying to figure out how to purge that name from my memory banks, but am failing.)
Fourth, and finally, my conspiracy-minded interlocutor forgets the fact that reporters have a career incentive to break a big story. Bob Woodward, in particular, has made his entire career following up the Watergate story with intimate portraits of policy-making in Washington, DC. Thus, let's say I "knew" that Barack Obama was really a Kenyan Muslim member of the Communist Party. (Only one of those things bars you from being president by the way, but this is the world, so, whatever.) Why wouldn't I show what I have? My career would be made, particularly on the right. I could be famous, get invited to all the "in" parties, and probably get rich. And I am going to sit on this, why?
It is easy to see conspiracies. It is almost never worth thinking about them. And while it is true that even paranoids have enemies, it is also the case that some things are true and some things are false. One of the true things is that the press did not protect Richard Nixon during the Watergate scandal. Another is that the press is not protecting Barack Obama on the Benghazi tragedy.

Comments about Yamaha GigMaker 5-Piece Drum Set with 20" Bass Drum:
I bought this set to use for gigging with our CMA Praise Band as I didn't want to haul my big DW set around to the venues we play, churches, motorcycle rallies, prison and homeless ministry, etc. I bought it based on the recommendation from my son, a former Guitar Center drum manager and professional musician. The shells are what you would expect at this price point, but the bearing edges are excellent and the hardware is way better quality than the price would indicate. The toms and kick tuned up right away and have a rich mellow tone. I did replace the stock batter heads with coated Remo Ambassadors for our style of music. The snare is hopeless! I use a PDP Woody (no longer made). Great kit for the money!

The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge, often known just as the International Bridge, spans the St. Marys River between the United States and Canada connecting the twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. It serves as the northern terminus of Interstate 75. The International Bridge began construction in 1960 and officially opened to traffic on October 31, 1962.[2] Daily operation is carried on by the International Bridge Administration (IBA) under the supervision of the Sault Ste. Marie Bridge Authority (SSMBA). The SSMBA replaced the previous Joint International Bridge Authority (JIBA) in 2009, which in turn had succeeded the International Bridge Authority (IBA, created in 1935) in 2000.
In 1954 the state of Michigan created the International Bridge Authority. [3] Canada followed in 1955, creating the St.Mary's River Co. [3]
This is a steel truss arch bridge with suspended deck. There are two separate spans, a double arch span on the U.S. side and a single arch span on the Canadian side. The double arch spans cross the four U.S. Soo Locks. The single arch spans the single Canadian Lock. In Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, the bridge ends at a city street, Huron Street, in the downtown core.
The total length of the bridge approaches 2.8 miles (4.5 km). The Bridge Authority allows bicycles to cross; however, there are no dedicated bike lanes. Cyclists must take proper precautions to ensure visibility.
Beginning in 1987, an annual International Bridge Walk has been held on the last Saturday in June, starting on the Michigan side, with participants finishing in Ontario.
On June 6, 2005, the Ontario government announced a construction project to build a dedicated truck bypass route to connect the bridge to Highway 17 in the north end of the city. The city had lobbied for this for some time, since the bridge's terminus at a city street was viewed by many residents of the city as a safety concern; however, the bridge terminus itself cannot be easily relocated due to the already highly urbanized nature of the Sault, Ontario waterfront. The truck route, known as Carmen's Way in memory of the city's former federal MP Carmen Provenzano, was officially opened in September 2006.
Construction work subsequently commenced in 2009 on a project to expand and modernize the Canadian bridge plaza, including a larger Canada Border Services Agency building with improved truck inspection facilities and a dedicated route to take trucks directly to Carmen's Way, thereby eliminating the need for trucking traffic to enter Huron Street.[4]
A tourist information radio station, CIRS, broadcast at 530 AM from the Ontario side of the bridge until 2010.

Find a distinct competency, then lock in
No company can be all things to all people, but that doesn't stop many from trying. How many companies do you know that are trying to "focus-across the board"?
Treacy & Wiersema, in their book The Discipline of Market Leaders, identified three distinct value disciplines. Each produces a different kind of customer value.
First is operational excellence, where the proposition is low price and hassle-free service.
Next is product leadership, where companies innovate and offer products that continually push performance boundaries.
Finally, there is customer intimacy, where companies don't focus on what the market wants but on what specific customers want. Note that choosing one value proposition doesn't mean abandoning the other two.
Managers who believe their organization is good in all three areas are kidding themselves. When you look closely, you'll find they are only mediocre in the three disciplines. There's nothing wrong with being average, but don't expect to be a market leader that way.
If you don't choose, the results become predictable. You will remain adrift in a rudderless ship, and then others that remain committed will overtake you. Not choosing means letting circumstances control your destiny and creating a managerial complexity that will result in your doing business with yourself rather than with your customers.
Managers must ask themselves, "How do we compete and win in our marketplace?"
The best answer is one that will define the exceptional value your company offers customers and one that would lead to the development of an operating model capable of delivering that value with a fair return to shareholders.
If a company is fortunate enough to attain market leadership, it cannot simply rest on its laurels. One of the central rules of market leadership is: Dominate your market by improving your value year after year. To stay ahead, you have to get better and better. After all, little in business stays proprietary for longnot products, processes, technologies, or strategies. People emulateif they don't actually duplicatewhat wins. Almost all market leaders will find admirers and competitors copying their success. Companies must intensively compete with their own success in order to remain leaders, and cutting costs is rarely the answer.
Why, after all this time and accumulated history, do companies continue to do counterproductive things? Most don't seem to want to accept or learn from history. George Santayana said 100 years ago, "Those who can't remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
Many feel past cases don't apply to them. It's like they don't believe they need to follow the natural laws of physics because they're different. Some would suggest they simply don't have the discipline to follow the best practices. When times are tight, they revert back to their natural instincts and do things the old way. The old way certainly isn't what founded the company.
When business is badand many would say it's been bad in the automation industry for a whilecompanies tend to start downward spirals. Rather than thinking of what they could do to gain share and dominate their market, they cut expenses. We've all seen companies do this by cutting back on or completely getting rid of sales, marketing, and R&D. Is that backwards or what? How many companies ever increased sales or market share by doing that?
When you sacrifice R&D, you forfeit your long-term future. Would Intel have remained a leader if it had decided never to progress beyond an 8-bit chip?
When you sacrifice marketing, not only do you lose visibility within your market, but your sales force loses focus as well. Marketing involves establishing your brand within people's minds. Market leaders advertise heavily; that's what got them to the top. You can't scrimp your way to No. 1. And inconsistent messages generated by different people at different times are worse than no message at all.
When you reduce your sales force, you then spread your already thin sales coverage even thinner. Those that remain pick up additional accounts, and the remaining salespeople accomplish even fewer sales. Thinning paint might make it go a little further, but then you need two coats to do a decent job, and it takes twice as long.
Unfortunately, all the history and industrial examples don't stop short-term financially oriented leaders from making these decisions. If only they would stop and think back on the ideals that founded their company or what made them great in the past . . . but they probably weren't around then.
What might look good for this quarter may just be the beginning of the end.
What's really nerve-racking is when you work for an organization and see all these things happening yet can't do a single thing about it.
The choice for the brave of heart is simple: leave. If you're really brave, start your own company. IT

Comments about Icelantic Gypsy Skis 2014:
The Gypsy delivers. I've been skiing for 30 years, grew up skiing Tahoe and have skied all over the world, and the Gypsy has firmly earned its place as my all time favorite ski. It's hard to believe, only b/c I don't think I ever felt like I could advocate one single pair of sticks like I can advocate these. Of late, they've been with to Las Lenas, Valdez, Snowbird, Highlands, Vail and Squaw, and they're coming with me to Japan, hell I practically sleep with them this time of year. Come snow, or come groomers, hell or high water, this is my ski of choice anywhere I ski Colorado. I'm not a ski critic, I can't speak to all the intricacies of the cut and the feel of the ride, only that I can ski this ski with more conviction then any ski I've ever had....

Wow. This thing is FUN. Bouncing, Floating, Forwards and Backwards.... Your friends will hate you for leading. These things know how to play while taking skiing to an all time high/"serious note". If you do not have a powder day - take these things on the groomed runs and enjoy the complete full edge grip that it provides. It is not your everyday "powder" ski. They fly!Have fun with them, bounce around and all out; GO PLAY. 125MM under foot, lightweight, versatile, big boy ski. These skis have changed my skiing for the better. If you would like to become a stronger more dominate skier in the trees and powder. THIS IT A MUST. Enjoy them as I have been doing so :) http://vimeo.com/76724422

Wanderers hit back for win
Bolton recovered from a woeful start to claim a morale-boosting 3-2 victory over Bristol City in their first game since Owen Coyle's departure.
Under the caretaker management of Jimmy Phillips, a revitalised Wanderers outfit showed admirable character following Steven Davies' early brace at the Reebok Stadium.
Davies, on only his second start for the Robins, followed up a superb third-minute volley by dispatching a disputed penalty, but goals either side of half-time from Chris Eagles and Jay Spearing levelled things up.
Several chances went begging for Bolton either side of Spearing's equaliser, yet there was still time for Martin Petrov to pop up with a deserved winner in the 82nd minute.
Petrov, Tim Ream and Benik Afobe gained recalls as Phillips made three changes to the Bolton side defeated at Millwall in the final game of Coyle's reign.
Experienced centre-half Stephen McManus was handed a second debut by City after returning on loan from Middlesbrough, while Martyn Woolford and Davies came in for Jody Morris and Ryan Taylor.
It took Davies little time to make an impact. A short corner routine resulted in Stephen Pearson swinging over a cross from the left and the former Tranmere and Derby forward connected with a acrobatic left-footed volley that gave Adam Bogdan no chance.
With their next meaningful attack, the Robins earned a penalty - much to the fury of the home support - when Woolford, running from left to right across the area, tumbled under a challenge from Ream.
Davies stepped up and confidently found the bottom-right corner from 12 yards as Bogdan went the wrong way.
Wanderers skipper Kevin Davies did his best to inspire an immediate comeback; the veteran saw a half-hearted appeal for a spot-kick turned down and also fired over on the turn.
Yet it was Eagles who pulled one back in the 31st minute, drilling a powerful free-kick under the wall to register his sixth goal of the season after he had been felled on the edge of the box.
The hosts continued to improve thereafter, but survived another penalty claim when Sam Baldock's cross appeared to strike Ream on the arm.
Bolton upped the tempo once more at the start of the second half and Mark Davies fired wide from 15 yards before Petrov and Spearing brought routine saves from Tom Heaton.
With the visitors coming under increasing pressure, Heaton reacted sharply to deny Afobe from close range.
City's goalkeeper was powerless, however, when Spearing latched on to a neat through-ball from Kevin Davies and finished coolly.
The provider of Bolton's equaliser almost prodded his side into the lead moments later, and Heaton continued to be kept busy as the whistle approached.
Ultimately, it was to be Petrov who had the final say. The Bulgarian opened up his body to find the far corner after being played in down the right by good link-up play from Eagles and substitute Lee Chung-yong.

Judge orders Mark Byron to apologize to wife on Facebook
A county judge is ordering a man to post a court-approved apology to his soon-to-be ex-wife on his Facebook page every day for 30 days, or face 60 days in jail, the Chicago Tribune reports.
In June 2011, Mark Byron was found guilty of civil domestic violence and his wife was granted a temporary protection order.
In November, Byron posted the following rant about his wife on Facebook:
"If you are an evil, vindictive woman who wants to ruin your husband's life and take your son's father away from him completely – all you need to do is say that you're scared of your husband or domestic partner and they'll take him away!"
A judge said the rant violated a protection order against him because it "emotionally abused" his ex.
The judge said he has to re-friend his wife and post a a seven-paragraph apology every day for 30 days.
A free-speech expert said this violates the 1st Amendment.
Do you think the court has the right to order Byron to apologize in this way? Tell us on Facebook.

Crystal structure of human purine nucleoside phosphorylase in complex with DATMe-ImmH
Inhibition of human purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) stops growth of activated T-cells and the formation of 6-oxypurine bases, making it a target for leukemia, autoimmune disorders, and gout. Four generations of ribocation transition-state mimics bound to PNP are structurally characterized. Immucillin-H (K*i(1/4) 58 pM, first generation)contains an iminoribitol cation with four asymmetric carbons. DADMe-Immucillin-H (K*i(1/4) 9 pM, second-generation),uses a methylene-bridged dihydroxypyrrolidine cation with twoasymmetric centers.DATMe-Immucillin-H (K*i(1/4)9 pM, third-generation) contains an open-chain amino alcohol cation with two asymmetric carbons. SerMe-ImmH (K*i(1/4) 5 pM, fourth-generation) uses achiral dihydroxyaminoalcohol seramide as the ribocation mimic. Crystal structures of PNPs establish features of tight binding to be; 1) ion-pair formation between bound phosphate (or its mimic) and inhibitor cation, 2) leaving-group interactions to N1, O6, and N7 of 9-deazahypoxanthine, 3) interaction between phosphate and inhibitor hydroxyl groups, and 4) His257 interacting with the 5'-hydroxyl group. The first generation analogue is an imperfect fit to the catalytic site with a long ion pair distance between the iminoribitol and bound phosphate and weaker interactions to the leaving group. Increasing the ribocation to leaving-group distance in the second- to fourth-generation analogues provides powerful binding interactions and a facile synthetic route to powerful inhibitors. Despite chemical diversity in the four generations of transition-state analogues, the catalytic site geometry is almost the same for all analogues. Multiple solutions in transition-state analogue design are available to convert the energy of catalytic rate enhancement to binding energy in human PNP.

[PNPH_HUMAN] Defects in PNP are the cause of purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency (PNPD) [MIM:613179]. It leads to a severe T-cell immunodeficiency with neurologic disorder in children.[1][2][3]
[PNPH_HUMAN] The purine nucleoside phosphorylases catalyze the phosphorolytic breakdown of the N-glycosidic bond in the beta-(deoxy)ribonucleoside molecules, with the formation of the corresponding free purine bases and pentose-1-phosphate.[4]

Why are Bob Woodward and the White House arguing over the sequester?
The blame-game over who's responsible for the 'sequester' and its automatic spending cuts finds journalistic icon Bob Woodward, engaged in a dispute with the White House.
The blame-game over who's responsible for the "sequester" and its automatic spending cuts – which everyone agrees is a terrible way to run Washington's business – finds journalistic icon and Pulitzer Prize winner Bob Woodward at the center of the controversy, engaged in a shouting (or at least tweeting) match with the White House.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
The essence of the flap is Woodward's assertion that Obama administration officials (and the President himself) fathered the notion of sequestration as a way of forcing all hands in Washington to come up with a rational spending cut and revenue plan for reducing the federal deficit, and that Obama had "moved the goal posts" on budget negotiations by seeking new revenues to accompany spending cuts.
White House press secretary Jay Carney calls Woodward's charge in a Washington Post op-ed column Sunday "willfully wrong."
Sequester 101: What happens if $85 billion in cuts hit on March 1
Elaborating in a statement Sunday, the White House said, "There has never been any question that the President seeking revenues as part of a plan to replace the automatic cuts in the sequester was expected from the very beginning in the 2011 fiscal negotiations and the passage of the Budget Control Act. That the President today is seeking a balanced plan to replace it with revenues and entitlement reforms cannot in even the slightest way be considered a change of policy, a change of expectations, or moving the goalposts."
To which Woodward responded in an email to Politico: "The White House pushback is a classic case of distortion and confusion."
"We unfortunately have seen this too often in recent presidential history," he emailed. "I do not think it is willful. They are just mixed up, surprisingly so."
Since this is Oscar night, we pause to note that in an earlier drama Woodward was played by Robert Redford in the 1976 movie about how he and Carl Bernstein – Dustin Hoffman on screen – unearthed the Watergate scandal that brought down Richard Nixon, launching a generation of would-be investigative reporters and securing tenure for their journalism professors.

Depeche Mode
play artist mixDepeche Mode are an English electronic music band formed in 1980 in Basildon, Essex. The group's original line-up consisted of Dave Gahan (lead vocals, occasional songwriter since 2005), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, vocals, chief songwriter after 1981), Andy Fletcher (keyboards), and Vince Clarke (keyboards, chief songwriter 1980-81). Depeche Mode released their debut record in 1981, Speak & Spell, bringing the band onto the English new wave scene. Clarke left the band after the release of the album, leaving the band as a trio to record A Broken Frame, released the following year. Alan Wilder (keyboards, drums, occasional songwriter) officially joined the band afterward, replacing Clarke, while Gore took over lead songwriting duties, establishing a line up that would continue for the next thirteen years.

Hempstead, NY - Hofstra University Head Men's Lacrosse Coach Seth Tierney and the HEADstrong Foundation today announced that the Pride's April 6th game against Colonial Athletic Association opponent Saint Joseph's University will be the featured contest in the inaugural Relentless Cup at Ridley High School in Folsom, Pennsylvania. Game time is 7 p.m.
This special fund-raising event will combine interstate youth games, high school games and the Pride and the Hawks in a special day of lacrosse. The event will gather youth lacrosse teams from four states including: Clearview Youth of New Jersey, Huntingtown Youth of Maryland, Ridley Youth of Pennsylvania and Rockville Centre Youth of New York. In addition, both the Ridley High School boys and girls teams will take on Avon Grove High School and will conclude with the Division I men's lacrosse game. The Pride and Hawks were originally scheduled to play on the Saint Joseph campus.
Proceeds from The Relentless Cup will support Nick's House, the Nicholas E. Colleluori Lymphoma Research Fund and the quality of life services offered by the HEADstrong Foundation.
The teams participating in HEADstrong's newest event have all played a significant role in the life of founder Nicholas "HEAD" Colleluori. It was with Ridley Youth Lacrosse that Colleluori first learned to play the game. Former Ridley Youth coaches Mike Hyland, now of Huntingtown and Shawn Ralph now of Clearview have both since relocated and become involved with programs in their communities. Rockville Centre Lacrosse of Long Island has been a huge proponent of the HEADstrong Foundation with involvement in several HEADstrong fundraisers and they are led by Tom Susko. It was at Hofstra University that Nick played collegiately and St. Joseph's University who has developed a strong alliance with the organization also have personal associations to the disease.
"It is with great excitement that we announce this special event for the 2013 lacrosse season," HEADstrong Foundation President and Nick's mother Cheryl Colleluori said. "We have longed to create an event that bridges the gap with the communities that meant so much to our Nick and to our family. We are truly thankful to Nick's beloved Ridley High School for allowing us the ability to host this event on campus. We also wish to sincerely thank St. Joseph's University, Hofstra University and all of the participating youth programs for their continued support and for joining our fight by being part of the Relentless Cup. Our hope is to continue to empower athletes by engaging them with service opportunities and an unforgettable lacrosse experience."
Admission will be $10.00 and tickets will be available at the event and online at www.shopHEADstrong.com

Does new iPhone ad pass the sniff test?
Life is good at Apple these days. Around 1.39 million iPhones sold. Soaring earnings. A new OS on the way. The Mac is gaining ground on the rest of the PC industry. The company can do no wrong. But that hasn't stopped a handful of critics from getting upset over one of the new iPhone ads currently running on a TV screen near you.
The ad in question is "Delay," which depicts an alleged airline pilot, Bryce, talking about how he used his iPhone's weather.com app to help avoid a major delay. The ads have gotten some of the folks over at FlyerTalk's forums pretty riled up.
Marathon Man, a poster from Massachusetts, started it all off by saying: "So I just saw for the first time this Apple iPhone commercial where a pilot (or some crew member that could be one) is standing there telling us that his iPhone was able to… Read more

What you should be doing is run Apple Hardware Test off the OEM DVD, and I would have done a fresh clean install of 10.8.x on its own drive, leave what your working system was 'as is' to insure you don't carry forward 4+ yrs of old extensions and stuff that can cause mischief. They do, it does happen.
You think your issues now are with the logicboard? and that is why your graphic card is trouble? Or your card now is only issue? and failing. Made sure the GPU slot is clean and firmly pushed in; same for anything else you removed, and that in cleaning out dust didn't just move some to a new location.
Sounds like the cleaning and reassembly not the logicboard (and not sure GPU).

My current GPU is ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB.
As you can appreciate, due to me not seeing and information on my monitors I can't run Apple hardware test, although I'd love to, as this would give me a clue as to what was going wrong and where.
I did carry out a fresh install of 10.8 recently onto a SSD (from App Store). Mind you if I get things going again I might carry out a fresh install of 10.8.
It's funny that you mention the GPU slot, because I've always had issues with having to re-sit the card when apple sent me a replacement two years ago. I also noticed during my problems recently, re-sitting the GPU seemed to provide different results when booting.
So perhaps the connection strip on the GPU is the problem. I hope it's not the slot on the Logic board.
How easy is it to connect to a different slot?

My plan was - to carefully plug in my new GPU and then carry out a carry out a Apple Hardware Test, clean instal of 10.8 etc...
But after forking so much out on a new GPU I really don't want to plug it in and watch it fry.

Did you look for photos of 4870
Sometimes the little "lock" which is hard to reach or breaks off (optional).
Making sure just like with DiMMs that it is FULLY seated in the slot, give it pressure.
I read the 4870's age and lack of all the specs and features ML can look for to use, plus that most found the 5770 bench and performs better - compare the two on www.barefeats.com rather than go by subjective tests and 90% of apps will do better (unless they have not been updated, or are optimized maybe for Nvidia architecture).

Well; come Tuesday when my Sapphire 7950 arrives I'll just have to plug it in and cross my finger that at least I can see something to further investigate.
FIrst I'm going to strip her down and make absolutely sure the DiMM slots are clean and tidy.

I can't run an Apple Hardware Test because I have no display.
I have no warranty.
The new Mac Pro's are unavailable to buy in the UK.
I ordered a ne w GPU (Sapphire 7950) to upgrade before my Mac Pro became unusable.
I don't want to blow my new GPU, but I have no choice but to plug it in so I can see what's going on.
The only alternative would be to purchase a second hand Mac Pro or to purchase a new logic board.
So is there a possibility that a problematic logic board could damage my new GPU?

No sign and unlikely.
I keep spares of even video cards around.
I would never use computers w/o a UPS. Lightning and storms and wind do interfere with our power.
As this thread started, it was opening it up and trying to remove dust and putting it back together.
One thread just closed that kept sounding to me like "this is a heat issue" turned out the fans on the front were not turning. A lot of things were tried to get to simple "clean those fans, use SCF 2.4 fan control to boost the fans.
Popele have baked their Nvidia 8800GTs to get them back working. And worked.
I would say you are over reacting but your own effort to clean dust was the only critical issue so far.
People change out video cards all the time, even as part of troubleshooting.
There are places that do that sort of thing and only charge if parts are needed.

Just thought I'd update this thread.
My GPU arrived a day early, so I put the guts back into my Mac Pro, being extremely careful. Booted her up in safe mode with one monitor and a keyboard connected and it worked.
This obviously isn't a thorough test. So next I'll carry out a Hardware Test.
Howevr - what is the best procedure/order for plugging all the peripherals back in? Remove power cord and plug one device in, power up, shut down and continue plugging devices in like this. Or remove power and plug all devices in and boot in safe mode etc.

It's Thursday and everything is fine, although trying an Apple Hardware Test was unsuccessful. Keeping the D key pressed straight after the bong didn't seem to do anything. Really impressed with the Sapphire 7950 though. Definitely noticed a performance boost. Also just ordered a replacement PRam battery, concidering my current battery is four years old.
If everything stays the way it is, I can only comment that giving the old girl a spring clean moved some dust around the GPU causing it to overheat etc.
Never mind. I was planning on upgrading the GPU anyway, it just turned out sooner than later.

No matches found.Phelan resident searching for her diamonds
Son stole jewelry, sold it to local stores
PHELAN • The very same day that one Phelan resident discovered she was the victim of jewelry theft, she watched deputies arrest their suspect. Locating the stolen diamonds, however, has proved much more difficult.
On Sept. 7, Phelan resident Joy Linehan discovered that her two investment-grade diamonds were missing from her home along with gold Krugerrands.
When her 31-year-old son, who was on drugs at the time, confessed to taking and selling the diamonds and Krugerrands, Linehan called 911. Victor Valley Station deputies responded to the residence and arrested Linehan's son late that night, according to Staci Johnson, spokesperson for the Victor Valley Sheriff's Station.
According to Linehan, her son confessed to selling the diamonds to Kevin Jewelers in Victorville, and a deputy told Linehan that he would visit the store the day after the arrest to inquire about the diamonds. However, more than a month went by before the deputy went to Kevin Jewelers, during which time Linehan called and visited the station repeatedly.
Victor Valley Station records show that the deputy visited Kevin Jewelers on Oct. 10. At that time, Kevin Jewelers no longer had any record of the diamonds, because a 30-day holding period was over, according to Linehan.
A deputy also visited Gold Max, where the cougarans had been sold, and was told that the Krugerrands had been melted, something Linehan said was unlikely as melting would make the gold coins less valuable.
"The police dropped the ball," Linehan said. "My chance of recovery would have been so much greater if it had not been for the lack of timeliness and follow though."
Johnson attributed the delay to the large number of crimes the Victor Valley station has to investigate every day.
"We went out there and made the arrest. We have a protocol that we have to follow," Johnson said. "Our main concern is personal safety before property."
Frustrated with the sheriff's department, Linehan went to Kevin Jewelers herself and offered to pay the $2,200 that the store had paid her son in exchange for the diamonds — which were worth upwards of $18,000, she said. Representatives at the store told her they could not locate her diamonds or any of equivalent value.
On Dec. 3, Linehan decided to contact consumer advocate Michael Boguslawski, who agreed to help Linehan get to the bottom of the situation.
"In 50 years in this consumer business, I've never seen anything like this," Boguslawski said. "Things weren't done the way they should have been. One problem multiplied on another, and it just got out of hand."
Boguslawski said he sees problems on many levels with the way the situation was handled, starting with the fact that Kevin Jewelers bought the diamonds from Linehan's son. Kevin Jewelers did not return the Daily Press' request for comment.
Planning to pursue the issue until it is resolved, Boguslawski has already sent out letters to various involved parties in California.
The theft occurred more than three months ago, and Linehan is still holding out hope of finding the diamonds she bought as an investment more than 30 years ago.
"If something happened, I could have sold those diamonds," Linehan said. "I'm not one of those women who have a lot of fancy things, but I knew I had investment-grade diamonds."

What You Can Do About Migraine Headaches
What Sets Off Migraine Headaches and Available Treatments
The pain of a migraine headache can be intense. It can get in the way of your daily activities. Migraines are not the same in all people. Migraine headaches are usually characterized by severe pain on one or both sides of the head, an upset stomach, and, at times, disturbed vision. Women are more likely than men to have migraine headaches. Migraine pain is moderate to severe, often described as pounding, throbbing pain. They can last from four hours to three days and usually occur one to four times per month.
Types of Migraine Headaches
There are four types of headaches:
- Vascular headache
- Muscle contraction headache (tension headache)
- Traction headache
- Inflammatory headache
The most common type of vascular headache is migraine. After migraine, the most common type of vascular headache is the toxic headache produced by fever. Other kinds of vascular headaches include cluster headaches, and headaches resulting from high blood pressure. Like other types of pain, headaches can serve as warning signals of more serious disorders.
Things That May Set Off a Migraine
There are many things that may set off a migraine headache:
- Strong or unusual odors, bright lights, or loud noises
- Changes in weather or altitude
- Being tired, stressed, or depressed
- Changes in sleeping patterns
- Certain foods, especially those that contain tyramine, sodium nitrate, or phenylalanine (e.g., alcohol, cheese, fruit, processed foods, meat and fish, soy, nuts, and chocolate)
- Missing meals or fasting
- Menstrual periods, birth control pills, or hormones
- Intense physical activity, including sexual activity
- Smoking
Treatment for Migraines
The good news for headache sufferers is that, once a correct headache diagnoses is made, an effective treatment plan can be started. The first step is to go to your family doctor. He or she will perform a complete physical exam and a headache evaluation. Your headache history will be evaluated.
Some common approaches and treatments include:
- Drug therapy combined with biofeedback and relaxation training
- Medications to both prevent and treat attacks when they happen
- Drugs called triptans relieve pain and restore function
- Hormone therapy for some women whose migraines seem to be linked to their menstrual cycle
Your doctor may recommend different types of treatment. Not all headaches require medical attention. Treatment may also include education, counseling, stress management, biofeedback and medications.

'Speedbuster' Jay Olstad to leave WTMJ-TV
Another departure from the WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) newsroom:
This time, it's reporter and anchor Jay Olstad, who joined the station in 2007.
His last day is Wednesday. Olstad, a Minnesota native and Vikings football fan, will be going to KARE-TV, the NBC affiliate in Minneapolis.
"I grew up 25 minutes from the station" in Mound, Minn., he said.
"It's always been in the back of my mind to work in the Twin Cities. And when this opportunity kind of came out of nowhere, I jumped at it," Olstad said.
Olstad's duties at WTMJ-TV included "Speedbusters," a recurring segment in which he reported on streets, intersections and neighborhoods where drivers would drive too fast.
Before joining WTMJ-TV, Olstad worked at WLUK-TV IN Green Bay and in Billings, Mont.
He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire with a degree in broadcast journalism, and a minor in political science. While in college, he was a member of the Concert Choir and the Singing Statesmen.
Last week, WTMJ-TV reporter and anchor Diane Pathieu announced she was leaving the station to work at WLS-TV in Chicago. She is a Chicago-area native.

Good riddens. Liked his winter story from Capital where he showed protestor with a Walker is a Koch---ker shirt. This man is classless. He'll fit right into LibLand of Minn.
Tin foil hat on a little tight this afternoon?
I am going to be Jay. It is a great service he provided to the general public.
WTMJ-TV turned into WTMZ about the same time WTMJ-Radio turned into WGOP.
Thanks for the laugh!
Double thanks!
That's awesome. Well played.
Speedbusters and Dirty Dining are sensationalize pieces of 'non' news designed to fill in the spaces left when the anchors are not mindlessly bantering. Gone are the John McCullough-led days when WTMJ actually reported the news without flashy graphics and pointless pieces like the ones Olstad did. Jay, good luck in Vikingland, but please take Carol Meekins with you, then stop over at Fox 6 and get the equally annoying Jeremy Ross. I'll be watching the last remaining real 'news' station in town - CBS58.
Right about TMJ but 58 is run like a high school AV club. Horrible
Agreed, but what CBS58 lacks in 'flash' they more than make up for in substance.
Carol Meekins is A-1, I would say she is definitely one of my favorites when watching the news.
I hope Ch.4 doesn't replace that Speedbusters segment with someone else. Why can't the news just REPORT the news instead of MAKING news? The newsroom should have a phone so they can report this information of speeding to the Police.
Will not miss him or his speed busters.
Please 4 go back to reporting on real news, don't you think if we all drive we know people speed.-
If only Charles Benson and Scott Steele would leave.
Good riddance...Just a stupid segment. I never felt bad about people speeding on many of these roads marked 25 MPH that should be at least 35 or 40 MPH anyway.
What makes you think Speedbusters is going away?
Oh, come on folks. You don't even know Jay. Do you think it was his idea to go and do Speedbusters? I have run into Jay out and about, and he's one of the nicest people you could meet. It's just another big loss for channel 4. What in the heck is going on over there? These people aren't getting fired if they have jobs lined up already. Maybe channel 4 just sucks all around to work for. Speaking of which-
Maybe someone could hook Steele up with a job and get him out of here. I could start watching Vince and Susan again. For now, I hope you're winning Fox6. Rid Steele and 4 will have a lot more viewers. (Jessie is quite painful herself. Did you get her from Phelps or something?)
We'll miss ya, Jay Olstad! Good luck!

Nice wallet - bogus price
By horseshowmom
from Southeast
This was my first Wilson Leather online purchase. I purchased this wallet because it "looked" like it was on a major sale. I paid $16+ for it. When my husband opened it, a price tag for $19+ fell out. The sale was supposed to be a LOT more than 15%. I learned a lesson about Wilson Leather pricing.

This is a classic trifold design wallet. Inside left flap is designed well to handle business cards. Inside right flap is used for credit cards. There is an additional flap with a window off of the right flap. I use this one to hold my drivers license. The rear of that flap is more room for credit cards. When you pull this flap back, there is an additional window pocket connected to the center of the wallet. I use this to hold my boating license and golf membership cards. Lastly, there is a full pocket that is the full length of the wallet for cash.I looked for a few days before deciding on this wallet. I was looking for a classic wallet, brown leather. This fits the bill.FYI: If you back hurts, move your wallet from your back pocket to one of the front pockets.
