Agencies fear 'law and order situation' over connection blockages; likely to seek police protection on December 1
Even as oil companies have set a November 30 deadline for LPG customers to for submit know-your-customer (KYC) forms — for those having incomplete address and more than one gas connection — the response has been poor. Gas agencies are fearing a huge rush on the last four days. The agencies are planning to request police protection on that day, anticipating untoward incidents such as stone-pelting.
"With poor response from customers, they will run the risk of having their connection completely blocked after the deadline and a law and order situation is likely to arise on December 1. We are contemplating seeking police protection," said Usha Poonawalla, state president, Maharashtra LPG dealers association. She said despite several notices from the gas agencies through various forms of media, the response is poor.
"Of the 6,655 connections which were under scrutiny, only 278 customers have filled up KYC forms," said Poonawalla from her own gas agency —Pragati Enterprises on Alandi Road.
All three state-owned oil marketing companies (OMCs) — Indian Oil Corporation, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation and Bharat Petroleum Corporation —had asked the domestic LPG distributors to collect and verify duly-filled KYC forms from theconsumers.
Agencies have said the dates were changed four times — October 15, October 31, November 15 and finally November 30. "There was enough time for the customers to respond, but people have been sluggish," points out a gas agency dealer in Kothrud. Having a branch in the rural area of Mulshi too, the agency dealer adds that she fears stone pelting incidents in the area as some customers had warned her against cancelling their connections. We have spoken to the representatives and have demanded police protection for our staff," said the agency dealer.
Another dealer in Kondhwa says, "Even after putting up huge boards saying the KYC is for blocked connections as well as multiple addresses, people with single connections are still lining up and creating a huge rush at the agency," he said.
Another agency added that with hardly 15-20 KYC forms having come in, it fears a blockage of nearly 10,000 connections in the area.
"This will further create chaos as people have not come in to fill their forms. We had even our people going door-to-door with the forms," she adds.
The KYC forms will encapsulate personal details like names and address and

Era 1995-2000 "Vision 2000 and Beyond"
Bishop Chandler David Owens was groomed for leadership of COGIC and elected after the death of Bishop Ford in 1995, he became the Presiding Bishop. Bishop Owens gained national attention in the church as the President of the Youth Department. Bishop Owens was a noted evangelist of the church and pastored several church including: Bostick Temple in St. Louis, MO Well's Cathedral COGIC in Newark, NJ; and Greater Community COGIC in Marietta, GA. He also served as the Presiding prelate of the New Jersey Garden State Jurisdiction and the Central Georgia Jurisdiction. Known for his eloquent and extensive vocabulary, astute entrepreneural skills, and organizational leadership, Bishop Owens led COGIC in its centennial celebration in 1997 with the thems, "holiness, a proven foundation for a promising future! He is credited with systematically restructuring church department and ministries expanding the church in Asia primarily India and the Philippine, and placing COGIC on a firm financial status. Bishop Owens had outlined a progressive plan to position COGIC for ministry in the 21st century known as "Vision 2000 and Beyond".

Bishop Owens contined to serve as a Jurisdiction Bishop and member of the General Board until his death in 2011.

The Subtle Bigotry Towards "Peaceful Muslims"
September 20th, 2012 | Posted by: Vlad Chituc
Slowly, a clear sequence of events has come together. A fifteen minute trailer for the poorly produced anti-Islam film, "Innocence of Muslims" was released on YouTube on September 8th, under what appeared to be the account of an Israeli real-estate developer, Sam Bacile. By September 13th, no records of an Israeli by the name of Sam Bacile could be found, and Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, Coptic Christian and former meth cook, became attached to the film after the cellphone number used by Sam Bacile in an AP interview was traced to Nakoula's home address. On September 11th, four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, were killed in Benghazi, the capital city of Libya. Whether the murders were part of a pre-planned terror attack or a result of opportunism remains unclear.
It's heartening to know that the protests both peaceful and violent are joined with encouraging demonstrations of solidarity with the murdered ambassador. A few reactions, however, are unfortunately predictable. Some are overtly islamaphobic, while others are more subtly so.
Today, Dave Silverman, President of American Atheists, tweeted the following photo of a printed paper in his hands which starts "Dear Peaceful Muslims" and is captioned with "Just a thought #IslamIsBarbaric."
This isn't the first time Dave Silverman has lacked nuance and tact when handling Islam. Last year, he referred to Islam as a "shitty religion which worships a pedophile as morally perfect," even though opinion is split on whether Muhammad was entirely morally perfect, and Islam explicitly forbids worshiping him. In fact, that is the very worry that grounds the unpopular proscriptions against visually depicting the prophet.
But putting aside past comments—as well as how overbearing it is to inform believers what their religion really entails—Silverman's tweet highlights a subtle kind of prejudice frequently faced by Muslims and Muslim-Americans.
Chris, I think, made an important comparison: earlier this year, Hemant Mehta at The Friendly Atheist brought up a double standard in how the media treats atheists and Christians. Atheists are commonly referred to as "self-identified," "self-proclaimed," "avid," and so on, but Christians almost never so. He writes:
"Vjack adds that this is an example of Christian privilege at work. It's to the point that most people probably don't even notice it; clearly, reporters don't seem to care. But one way to fix it is by raising awareness that it occurs so that you can call it out when you see it."
But an even more insidious issue regularly affects Muslims and Muslim-Americans, an already maligned and alienated group. The popular stereotype of the Muslim as terrorist or terrorist-sympathizer surfaces often, and Silverman is subtly reinforcing it by addressing "peaceful Muslims." My co-blogger, Chelsea Link, made this point in response to Silverman: "Asking 'peaceful Muslims' to oppose terrorism is like asking 'friendly black people' to oppose gang violence. Just a thought @mratheistpants."
There are a few general rules of conversation that we follow, one being something like "don't be redundant." That's because we don't like being told things we already know. If you reference a "smart astrophysicist," that's weird because we'd assume astrophysicists are already considered smart, so why tack on the unnecessary adjective? Saying "devout Muslim" isn't weird, though, because we know that believers fall on a spectrum of piety, and it's not necessarily clear where any given person falls on that line.
But what's the subtext, then, of saying "Dear Peaceful Muslims?" The innuendo is obviously that the "peaceful" doesn't go without saying; at least a sizable portion of Muslims are violent, it seems to say, so you need to address the peaceful ones specifically. But after an abortion clinic is bombed, we wouldn't think to respond by addressing "peaceful Christians," just like we wouldn't talk to the "peaceful environmentalists" when discussing eco-terrorism. It's implied that Muslims have a spectrum of "violent" that needs to be considered—environmentalists and Christians don't. Compound that subtext with the existing stereotype, and you get some ugly reinforcement Sarah Palin has even dabbled in.
But just to be sure that I wasn't reading too much into it, Silverman went ahead and said it outright: when Chris tweeted that "the vast majority of Muslims oppose terror," Silverman responded by saying "I'm skeptical." In case anyone was wondering: this Pew Poll from last year has 81 percent of American Muslims saying suicide bombings are never justified. And here's the Christian Science Monitor on a survey from the Program on International Attitudes from the University of Maryland:
[O]nly 46 percent of Americans think that "bombing and other attacks intentionally aimed at civilians" are "never justified," while 24 percent believe these attacks are "often or sometimes justified."
Contrast those numbers with 2006 polling results from the world's most-populous Muslim countries – Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nigeria. Terror Free Tomorrow, the organization I lead, found that 74 percent of respondents in Indonesia agreed that terrorist attacks are "never justified"; in Pakistan, that figure was 86 percent; in Bangladesh, 81 percent.
These tweets by Silverman aren't going unnoticed; Chris has documented on his twitter how negatively Muslims and atheists living in Muslim-majority countries are reacting to Silverman's comments.
David Silverman is treating this like a freedom of speech issue. This isn't about the First Amendment or whether we can criticize Islam; in fact I think these issues are important. But criticism should be tempered, accurate, and fair. We should discuss how certain verses of the Quran are interpreted and contextualized, how certain parts of hadith can be incorporated into Western culture, and how certain comments by Imams or spiritual leaders might be problematic.
Silverman has a fair point that this discussion requires the voices of liberal muslims, but specificity is our friend on issues as broad and complex as religion. No one is well-served by blanket statements like "Islam is barbaric" or a "shitty religion," as if a religion held and practiced by more than a billion people can be defined writ large by the actions of a small percentage. There is a serious conversation to be had here, that needs to be had here, and it's not one for crude hashtags and twitpics that push away atheists and Muslims alike.

Only bit I'd add is how absurd it is, the conception that extraordinary generalities like "Islam is Barbaric" would make anything remotely close to positive change when espoused in a place like America. Rather, not even America–the only people exposed to this campaign are a relatively trivial community of interested individuals (the atheist movement, the interfaith movement, American Muslims) who have no demonstrable connection to the protests in North Africa, etc. Essentially, this serves to send a message of "We blame you, 'peaceful'/'moderate'/'American' Muslims, for the repugnant actions of Muslims elsewhere." I don't see how this amounts to anything but brick-throwing.
It also serves as a platform from which Dave Silverman can feign bravery in the face of Muslim violence…speaking to an audience of atheist/agnostics and liberal religious folk in the West. You might as well make racist jokes to your white friends. The only people you're offending and igniting are those of us who think bigotry is utterly repugnant.

THIS atheist is not 'pushed away.' Although I recognize several excellent points in this article (the 'friendly blacks' example was particularly persuasive) I disagree that moderates should be spared the kind of humiliating goad Silverman used.
Moderate Muslims are the ones who have the proper coinage, the only scrip accepted by their less circumspect co-religionists. When conversing with Christians, a familiarity with scripture and dogma is indispensable if one's intention is to change their minds.
So in short, "Muslims, it's your job to repudiate this, since you speak their jive, and go to such great lengths to sell your belief system as 'fundamentally peaceful.' Since everyone with eyes can see that is not the case, try to make Islam what you only claim it is now without any justification whatsoever. 'Peaceful Muslim' is a useful distinction for a reason, you know.

LOS ANGELES – Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are teaming up for the Golden Globes.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Dick Clark Productions and NBC announced Monday that the pair of 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation stars have signed on to host the 70th annual Golden Globes ceremony after British comedian Ricky Gervais' three-year reign as the show's acerbic emcee.
The unparalleled comedic timing of Tina and Amy will surely have viewers wanting to tune in to see them in action, said Takla-O'Reilly, president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which honors film and TV at the Beverly Hills Hilton ceremony. The HFPA is thrilled to have the magnetic duo be a part of the show's 70th anniversary!
The funny-lady duo previously starred together in the films Mean Girls and Baby Mama and on Saturday Night Live. They co-hosted the NBC sketch comedy series' Weekend Update segment from 2004 to 2006.

No camera anywhere ever increased anyone's safety one iota. These cameras are about one thing, and one thing only: making money. They will not stop a drunk from driving up the sidewalk, and won't even yell at pedestrians to move out of the way! Unless the drunk is also speeding, the camera won't even take his picture!
I predict once the city sees how much more money can be extracted from the employed, these things will appear on all the main drags and heavily traveled roads.
When's the last time a speeder ran over a kid right in front of a school, anyway? These cameras are the answer to a problem WE DON'T HAVE!! That, if nothing else, should show that they're about nothing but revenue generation.
Sure, gdog, just give up your rights. Be a good sheep, and do whatever the government tells you.
What happens when you're obeying the law, but someone driving the opposite direction isn't, and fires the camera? You're both in the picture, if the timing is right. Do you both get tickets? How does the camera, or the person looking at the picture, know which car set it off?
I am not for giving up rights to be monitored by cameras that are controlled by local government, because they will abuse our liberties. Liberties that men and women before us have died to protect. Enough!
Just look at the NSA...
gdog, that doesn't tick me off at all. Not even a very good try. Adults can discuss things without having to resort to the childish "digs" you spew. You need to grow up and get that cell phone away from your head - it's rotted your brain.
What law are we obeying by submitting to these cameras? Ever hear of a little piece of paper called The Constitution? How about the Bill of Rights? You need to get someone to explain to you what the Fourth Amendment means, since you obviously don't have a clue.
And, I notice that with all your vitriol, gdog, you forgot to answer my question. What happens when the camera takes a speeder's picture and you're in the picture, too? How do they know who to send the ticket to?
If anyone believes this is for the safety of the children is an idiot. This is to raise money for the city to give away.
Boy, the Vindy REALLY needs to figure out a way to limit voting in polls to ONE TIME PER DAY!!
Just another plan old MONEY GRAB
by a failing administration
gdog, is it possible for you to discuss things without going for the personally insulting attack?
And since you're unable to answer my last question, please try this one: How, exactly, do cameras increase the safety of schoolchildren?
Huh. Look at this: http://www.wfmj.com/story/22698402/me...

When taken every day, maintenance inhalers like ASMANEX can help prevent asthma symptoms, such as coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.(3) According to updated guidelines from the National Asthma Education and Prevention Program, inhaled corticosteroids are the preferred foundation therapy for initiating long-term control treatment in children with persistent asthma.(4) Daily use of ASMANEX helps manage asthma in patients with persistent asthma, and its automatic dose counter helps patients track remaining doses.
"As the back to school season approaches, it is important for parents to monitor their child's asthma symptoms and work with their physician to determine an appropriate asthma management plan," said Nancy Sander, founder and president of the Allergy & Asthma Network Mothers of Asthmatics. "A once-daily treatment is a useful option to help parents establish a regular routine for their children when taking asthma medication."
Asthma symptoms can occur at any time, so in addition to use of a quick
relief inhaler to treat sudden asthma symptoms and managing asthma with a
maintenance inhaler, it is also important for parents to work closely with
their child's doctor to identify asthma triggers that can exacerbate a
child's asthma symptoms during school.(5) For example, classrooms may
contain indoor allergens like dust mites and molds, as well as irritants
including chalk dust and strong odors.(6) Additionally, children may
experience difficulty breathing outside during recess or before and after
school, as a result of exposure to outdoor allergens, weather changes and
diesel exhaust created by

Reviews for Raspberry Custard Tart
Sort By :
"Light and delicious spring dessert! I didn't have a tart pan so I made mine in a shallow pie dish. Everyone loved the nutty crust and raspberry finish. I may decrease the almond extract next time but overall a very nice dessert especially when garnished with fresh raspberries."
"Perfect dessert for after a family barbecue.My husband,three daughters, and I loved it."
"My crust did not cover the pan like I would have liked it to. My pudding was slightly rubbery, but everyone loved it otherwise. The taste was great."
"Time consuming plus scant for family."
"My husband absolutely loves raspberries. I've tried several different recipes, but no hurrahs! This one really is a keeper, really light and delicious."

Hong Kong, 2008 (MIFF 2009, Neighbourhood Watch)
Director: Emily Tang
Two women's experiences of China's shifting economic forces are explored in this unconventional blend of documentary and fiction.
Quietly masterful, Emily Tang's Perfect Life discards traditional storytelling conventions to detail the contrasted experiences of two Chinese women in a country changing rapidly in the face of industrialisation and capitalism.
The fictional tale of Li Yueying - young, and struggling to fulfil her dreams in the remote north-east of China - is counterpointed with the real-life story of Jenny, a seemingly happily married woman in Hong Kong who finds her reality shaken to the core.
Jia Zhang-ke (director of Still Life, MIFF 07, and 24 City, MIFF 08) was one of the producers on Perfect Life, and the film echoes his work in its haunting imagery and blending of fact and fiction.
Director Emily Tang is a guest of the Festival.

Top Island Chinese Restaurant
A new Chinese restaurant opened in Alhambra yesterday called Top Island. It is at the same location were Sea Star Buffet used to be. I went today for dim sum at 1115 and had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. When I left about an hour later there were lots of people waiting.
All dim sum dishes here are $1.88 (weekday price). I had the usual dishes like siu mai, har gow, cheung fun, dan tat, egg rolls, jook, chow fun, fung jow & choi sum. I liked the siu mai, kind of reminded me of they way Tai Hong used to make them. The fung jow were large and cooked soft the way I like. The jook had lots of thousand year old egg. Tea/setting charge is 88 cents p/p. They serve dim sum here with trolleys. I didn't like their napkins here, they just give you several paper napkins which are similar to kleenex.
When I left I saw some different items coming out so I'll have to come back and try them. Also their newspaper ad says they have a free crab special during dinner hours. Not sure what the min. requirements are for this though.
Out of curiosity we went to Top Island for Christmas morning dim sum. Weekend and holiday's are $2.08/dish and 88 cents/person set up. By 8:30am it was about 90% full. Think people are attracted by the curiosity of a new place and the prices. ROM (run of the mill) dim sum, nothing outstanding but adequate. Their luncheon menu specials priced at $4.75.
Went back here for dinner and got my free crab. The deal works like this: if you have 5 or less people in your party you get 1 free crab, 6 or more people and you get 2 free crabs. I saw lots of families here tonite eating some nice sized crabs.
The restaurant was full at around 700PM and the kitchen seems kind of slow at dinner time.
Went back here for dinner tonight and the place is still packed. So packed that the head waiter angered some tables (including mine) by trying to rush our dinner. We were still eating (lots of food on our table) when we were presented with our bill and dessert. After a short slightly heated conversation our bill was taken back and not presented until we finished our meal and requested it. When I left we heard one of the employees tell a senior couple that "they should leave because they would not be getting a table for only two." Not cool.
re: modernist
I was also totally underwhelmed by Top Island.
Cheap =/= quality.
See my prior post: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/367687
My girlfriend and I went there tonight. My coworker told me this place was good when it was a buffet.
Oh boy was it terrible.
Maybe we ordered the wrong thing.
My gf likes hot pot, which was around 16 bucks. When it came we thought we ordered the wrong dish. It had something like MUSHROOM, some sea cucumber....and one another thing. Absolutely no flavor.
It had NONE of the good seafood like shrimp, scallops, etc...
Then we ordered a whole fish. Of course they try to disguise the fact that half of the fish is gone. They must mix and match with other fish dishes because our fish had 2 tails.
The fish was totally soggy, flavorless, bland etc...
Oh by the way, the fish came out to 40 bucks.
For those 2 items we ordered it was 60 bucks.
They never gave us our water by the way.
That place should be called Top Ripoff!
re: buytheredcar
As I mentioned in another thread on this awful place, a group of us went there for dinner and thought it to be pretty poor. Overpriced, tasteless food that was not of very good quality, either. Nomally we eat at this place in Alhambra called Ritz Gardens because my MIL likes it (I thnk it is mediocre at best, and am always complaining about it) but after eating at Top Island, it made Ritz Garden seem like the Ritz Carlton. Top Island is ugh.

After Hostess Brands Inc. went out of business last year, the company sold off its brands in chunks to a variety of buyers. Many of the most famous cakes -- such as Twinkies, CupCakes and Donettes -- were purchased by a pair of investment firms that plan to have them back on shelves by July 15.
Drake's cakes were snapped up by longtime Hostess rival McKee Foods, which makes Little Debbie snacks. McKee said in an email Monday that some Drake's cakes should be back by "late summer/early fall."
It did not say which products it will roll out first or whether all Drake's cakes would eventually return.

So, today represents a pretty big day for Microsoft, as it marks not only the official launch of Windows 8, but it's also the launch day for their Surface RT tablet. I still think that the starting price on the Microsoft Surface should have been closer to $299, but in the $499 range, it competes directly against the recently announced fourth-generation iPad rather than the also recently announced iPad Mini. So, how does it compare?
As far as outward dimensions, they're comparable but different. They're both 9.4mm thick, but the Surface RT takes on a 16:9 aspect ratio, making it narrower and longer compared to the more shorter and wider iPad 4. The weight is also comparable at 680g (Surface) vs. 653g (iPad). While the 9.7-inch iPad has a much more impressive resolution of 2048×1536 (264ppi) compared to the 1366×768 resolution (148ppi) on the 10.6-inch Surface, the ClearType tech is supposed to make the Surface look sharper than it really is.
Raw power should also be comparable with the iPad 4 getting the dual core Apple A6X processor (presumably running at 1.3GHz) along with quad-core GPU. The Surface RT gets a quad core NVIDIA Tegra 3 (1.4GHz) chip, which is similar to what you find on many current high-end smartphones and tablets. The Surface RT does have double the RAM at 2GB, though, compared to what we think is the same single gig on the iPad 4 as was there in the iPad 3.
Apple is notorious for not providing a memory card slot and that hasn't changed in the fourth-gen iPad. You get the 16GB, 32GB or 64GB that's already on board, compared to the microSD slot on the Surface RT to complement its 32GB or 64GB of internal storage. The iPad is available with 3G/LTE though, whereas the Surface is currently a WiFi-only device. The iPad also sounds like it wins in the camera department too with a 5MP rear (1080p) and 1.2MP front (720p) shooter, whereas both Surface cameras are 720p. They haven't specified the actual megapixel count.
Of course, there are all those other things that you need to consider. The iPad has access to a tremendously huge App Store, whereas the Windows Marketplace for RT is not nearly as developed, especially since RT can't run native Windows programs. That said, the Surface has the cool Touch Cover and Type Cover, and you do get a version of Microsoft Office right out of the box.
At the end of the day, which tablet you choose really depends on your needs and preferences. And let's not forget about the plethora of Android options too, like the less expensive Nexus 7 or possibly the upcoming Nexus 10, as well as trusty standbys like the Galaxy Tab and Asus Transformer Pad families. Whatever the case, it looks like this could be a great holiday shopping season for tablet lovers.
The iPad3(retina), Wifi Only, starts as $500. I do think the low-end surface should have been priced at $299 to complete with both android and ipad. In that range it would be a real option vs android and wouldn't even be a question in the ipad. Remember too, the iPhone was released, people were skeptical and the biggest thing? No. Apps. We still gobbled it up. And 5 years later….
The apps on Android and surface I suspect will be similar with the edge going to Surface slowly because there's a consistent hardware platform they have to run on. Android is like all over the place, even the OS is a scattered mess. Android apps are plenty, but they are for the most part primitive by comparision to what's on the iPad/iPhone. They remind me of stuff that "Joe Linux" user would write to help >>him<< with a task, no common interface, many in DOS seeming interfaces. Awful.
Apps on the iPad/iPhone? As the years go by I am slowly getting disenchanted with them a bit. Both games and applications. Apple's own iPhoto is a piece of garbage. I really want a file system on my iPad. Store things in different places. (Like Android).
I want to run apps though, like what I do day to day on my real computer. A web browser and word and a few camera apps, facebook, a few primitive games that can't even rival 1990 era PC games is getting… old I guess. I want my tablet to do more.
So far none of them really do this.
The Surface Pro may, but for that price why not get a killer laptop with a 1terabyte drive, 16 gigs of RAM, 2gig graphic card and the latest i7 mobile chipset?
There's GOT to be some middle ground here. $500 Surface cannot complete with iPad. Nor can it compete with $300 Android.
its so much better than what the ipad or android provides
Surface has a full USB port. Just plug an LTE stick, printer, mouse, anything out of thousands of devices and it will work.
Fewer apps, but they are inherently more useful with integration into the search and share charms. For example, I would never bother installing Wikipedia or howstuffworks apps on my iPad, but adding them to a rt device instantly adds those capabilities to the built in search function.
wrong ipad 4, and the 3rd gen one, both have 4G/LTE.
The SD slot allows for quick and easy transferring and reading of files without having to sync to iTunes or Zune. That right there makes it winner in my book.
What about the plethora of Windows 8 alternatives to the surface? Microsoft give their consumers a choice just like Google. What about alternatives to Apple's devices? LMAO, give me a break.

Hello, and welcome to danblacksberg.com!
This site is a place where you can find about trombonist and composer Dan Blacksberg. Above, you'll see links to my bio, descriptions of and links to a wide variety of musical projects, sound samples, photos, and a store where you can purchase albums. The klezmer link in the upper right hand corner of the site is a full page dedicated to my work in that music. I have currently posted there some sound samples, and some resources for people who are trying to learn the traditional, single-note accompaniment style of klezmer music.
Looking ahead to summer 2014, there are many exciting things coming up:
Perilous Architecture, the Dan Blacksberg Trio's second record, and our first in four years, will be released on Lithuania-based NoBusiness Records in Late July. NoBusiness also released my first trio record, which was also my first recording as a bandleader, so it's a pleasure to continue this relationship with them. I want to thank everyone at the label for the great work they do and for continuing to support my music.
Around the same time, Haitian Rail, (formerly the Millevoi/Ricart Quartet) will release it's second cd, Solarists featuring myself, Nick Millevoi on guitar, Ed Ricart on bass, and the great Kevin Shea on drums. This is a really awesome, burning record that was a blast to make. Definitely check it out.
There's plenty more info and lots of sounds all around the website, so please browse around and enjoy!
Thanks for visiting,
Dan Blacksberg

A close-up on Intel's Knights Ferry platform
Summary: The Many Integrated Core architecture will be used in the new Knights Ferry and Knights Corner platforms, aimed at supercomputing tasks
4 of 6Image
The first Knights product is Knights Ferry. At its heart is the Aubrey Isle chip, which is packaged as a co-processor in a PCIe card. With 32 cores running four threads apiece, this can process 128 threads at 1.2GHz. This is the hardware being evaluated in Cern; it will never be a commercial product.
Photo credit: Intel
Intel is at pains to demonstrate that programming the MIC architecture will be via a natural extension of its mainstream x86/x64 development tools. This diagram emphasises the co-processor nature of MIC. The system reflects aspects of traditional mainframe design where control and management takes place in a separate system to the main computational mill.
Photo credit: Intel
This is Knights Ferry, demonstrating the relationship between the way the cores talk to each other and the way they talk to the cache. A very close merging of those two functions is essential to let the cores run at speed without waiting too long for data or other cores.

I was trying to figure out the difference between Remakes & Reboots, and this page suggests: "only a long-running series can be rebooted". Is that really true? I mean, there were four 90s Batman movies, but does that make Batman Begins a Remake, since it wasn't that long? Or is that long enough. And is there an actual difference between Remake & Reboot? It seems this is from a different time, when rebooting NEWER series seemed a quaint little idea. But that is no longer the case, I'm afraid.
I'd fix the trope page myself, but I don't know where to begin on this one, and I fear I too would get it wrong.

Eh? If there's a blog or a video or an image or a comic or an article that's relevant to the example on the page, we link to it. We don't need to work on trapping people here forever (that happens by itself!); indeed, building out of our wiki-bubble is likely a good thing.
Cracked does us the favour of linking to wiki pages quite a lot. I don't see why we can't acknowledge them in return.

ROCKFORD, Michigan - (AP) Jerry Douthett of Rockford says Kiko's action helped uncover an undiagnosed diabetic condition and led to treatment that could save his life.
The Grand Rapids Press reported that the 48-year-old musician knew for a while something was wrong with his foot. He resisted seeking care until giving in to his nurse wife's pressure one day last month.
Before going for an appointment, Douthett says he went out drinking, then came home and passed out. When he awoke, the terrier was beside him in bed and lots of blood was where his toe used to be.
His wife rushed him to Spectrum Health Blodgett Campus, where Doctors found a bone infection and amputated the rest of his toe.

After a long-haul filled with non-stop campaigning and endless endorsements, Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama has won the 2008 presidential election.
According to ABC News, in what may go down in history as one of the most memorable elections in our lifetime, Senator Obama has become the first ever African-American elected to the presidency alongside his running mate Delaware Senator Joe Biden who will take office as Vice President.
With a total of 270 out of the 540 electoral votes needed to win the race, Obama entered the contest evenly ranked with Republican presidential candidate John McCain and his running mate Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. However, things quickly began to change in the Illinois senator's favor as he surprisingly won crucial states Ohio and Pennsylvania. In the United State's history, no Republican president has been able to take office without winning Ohio.
As the election carried on, Obama continued to take in top states including New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Delaware, New Mexico, and Washington, DC. Barack supporters showed no intent of slowing down as the election came to an unexpected and sudden end as he took California and historically Republican Virgina at the eleven o'clock hour placing him at 283 electoral votes, more than the required amount to win the presidency.
Conceding from the contest, McCain spoke shortly later from Phoenix, Arizona to his supporters and offered his best wishes to the new President along with offering his hand of assistance.
"The American people have spoken and they have spoken clearly," he told the crowd. "It's natural tonight to feel some disappointment, but tomorrow we must move beyond it and get our country moving again."
Despite the election's closure, further statistics displayed Obama's unbelievable wins in Florida, Utah, Oregon, Nevada and other battleground states typically known for being the most difficult states for a presidential candidate to win totaling 338 electoral votes to McCain's 155.
Speaking at from Chicago's Grant Park, Obama gave his victory speech alongside his wife Michelle and two daughters to thousands of supporters including Oprah Winfrey and Jesse Jackson who joined in cheers and screams of joy as he walked on stage.
"Hello Chicago. If there is anyone out there who still doubts America is a place where all things are possible — tonight is your answer," he told the excited crowd. "It's been a long time coming, but tonight because of what we did on this day, at this election, at this defining moment, that change has come to America."
Barack also took the time to pay his respect to McCain's persistence and fortitude in this challenging election.
"I congratulate him, I congratulate Governor Palin," he added. "I look forward to working with them to renew the promises for this country in the months to come. "
Becoming one of the most celebrated and talked about elections in years with support from Jay-Z, T.I., Beyonce, Lil' Wayne, Diddy, Mary J. Blige and others, rappers recently spoke with SOHH to dish out their own personal pre-election predictions and plans prior to Obama's enormous win.
"I'm voting for Barack Obama," Fat Joe told SOHH. "I feel like, this country, if we don't elect him President, I might just move somewhere else, South America or something. I can't take this country and the way it's going."
UGK's Bun B also expressed his early concern and strong belief in Barack's promises of change.
"I'll be sitting in my house prarying that that man get all the votes that people give him and that they don't try to kill the election for him one way or another," Bun told SOHH. "I'm sure they got their exit strategy already put together so I just hope they let him win it fair and square."
On behalf of SOHH, we are proud to give our congratulations to the new president of the United States, Barack Obama.
