AMD FirePro W8000, W9000 Challenge Nvidia's Quadro
Nvidia, meanwhile, has been largely idle. The company's high-end parts, the Quadro 4000, 5000, and 6000, are all based on the original Fermi architecture. By moving first with a new architecture, AMD has (at least hypothetically) stolen a march on its competition.
That's important, for a pretty fundamental reason.
The professional GPU market is only a fraction of discrete GPU unit sales volume, but commands a disproportionately large section of total dGPU revenue. This graph neatly captures why enthusiasts and consumers should care about AMD's professional graphics business. With a four year profit margin of just 5.1%, it's imperative that AMD begin to turn a higher profit from its graphics unit if it's going to keep up with Nvidia or invest significant funds into OpenCL or other optimizations for current software.
The new W9000 and W8000 cards we're reviewing today are replacements for AMD's nearly two-year-old FirePro 3D V9800 and V8800.
Memory bandwidth has increased by 80% and double-precision floating point performance is up to 1TFlop. On paper, these cards appear to be dynamite.

Ask yourself why.
Seriously. Why?
Because as the reviewer, I don't have a satisfactory explanation for this behavior. It bucks every trend I'm aware of. "They're just a joke" is not a valid answer when examining performance that runs counter to hardware performance in every other field.
I have always wondered why this game (pro graphics cards) is either play very strong in the game or don't show up for it. They keep showing up though! I have used ATI/AMD now cards for quite some time. Yes i have had Nvidia cards as well but my first self built PC contained a (PII 400 pre-release by a week and 3 days) All in wonder pro. I still have it downstairs on a shelf and it is operational as well. In professional cards I do not ever recall them even having a chance though really.
AMD may be releasing the workstation cards now (at SIGGraph), rather than waiting until the drivers and ISV packages are optimized for GCN, if there's a significant opportunity for customers who use them as reliable 24x7 engines in render farms and media workstations. These customers may not be relying on the certified engineering packages tested in SPECPerf. AMD can show benchmarks like the ray-tracing in CLBenchmark.com instead.
(I think a previous generation initially exhibited a large performance regression in 2D performance. I can imagine the driver developers optimize the newer APIs first, perhaps assuming the latest most demanding software will use the newest APIs. So software using older APIs may initially suffer.)
(As I understand, even with standards like OpenGL or OpenCL there is still work to do to tune the kernels to the parameters of the hardware available, such as local memory size. I speculate that there may also be parameters in how the data is organized (tile size?), which limit the number of compute units, or lanes within a compute unit, an algorithm can use at once, analogous to how a 4-thread game can't make use of all of a 6- or 8-thread CPU. AMD may not have the resources or market share clout to convince the engineering package software companies to adapt their software to Tahiti/GCN on AMD's schedule.)
If we look at these benchmarks
we will see big improvements int Quadro 6000 perfomance. It is drivers impovements, or diferent system setup?
And every time in differents setups we will get very different results... As for Spec, they are so lazy and using very old versions of programs. I hope AMD continue close work with softwre developers.
@HotHardware: some suggestions:
1. please include GPU driver version numbers alongside hardware model numbers on the test configuration table/page for any benchmarks, especially engineering software benchmarks.
(It will help readers compare numbers from different review benchmark runs. It will help users who come back to reviews trying to diagnose performance differences, and determine whether an driver upgrade may be responsible.)
2. please include output settings such as rendered resolution, color bit depth, AA settings, etc.
(It will help readers compare numbers from different review benchmark runs. It will help diagnose if a strong GPU has enough work to exhibit scaling over weak GPU. Top gaming card reviews often don't show scaling benefits unless there are large screens or multiple screens. The HH V7900 V5900 article tested at 2560x1600. Officially submitted results on the SPEC site seem to use 1920x1200 or 1920x1080, but I expect workstations with such high end hardware would often be connected to higher resolution screens, sometimes even with 10-bits-per-pixel IPS screens rather than normal 6 or 8 bits per pixel. Thanks for discussing vsync, but no other settings are listed. Maybe the article is missing a table?)
(3 nit: please add a legend to the first bar chart, catia and ensight. It was difficult to read the text the first time while trying to keep multiple possible interpretations in mind.)
@GKvarta: you may be confusing two different benchmarks. SPECviewperf Maya runs a trace of the graphics commands sent to the GPU, focusing on the GPU performance. It can be run without a copy of the application. SPECapc Maya runs the actual application, so it may stress the CPU more to generate the model and emit the graphics commands.
On the other hand, in the linked article, the SPECviewperf 11 Maya scores
Quadro6000: 115fps-at-2560x1600
Quadro5000: 99fps-at-2560x1600
are much more impressive than the top officially submitted scores on the SPEC site
Quadro6000: 115fps-at-1920x1080
Quadro6000: 107fps-at-1920x1200
Quadro5000: 95fps-at-1920x1200
because the 2560x1600 implies rendering near twice as many pixels per frame as 1920x1080.
The linked article used a i7 980X overclocked to 4.27GHz,
while the officially submitted results use safer stock-clocked Xeons (3.46GHz-3.73GHz)
which might account for a part of the difference, but maybe not all of it. (I wonder if that article's benchmark runs rendered at a full 2560x1600 as the chart titles say, or at a smaller resolution on a 2560x1600 screen.)
@gc9: good highlights. I like to read HotHardware, but sometimes benchmarking articles is too superficial. As for new FirePro card, I think it's more of preview, not the review, drivers is not ready (as was with 7970 at launch day). Feels like V8 engine with not enough feeding with petrol...
The drivers used were AMD's provided (8.982.3) and Nvidia's Quadro 296.70. If AA had been enabled, I would've said so.
2) All tests were done using default settings. That means the monitor was set to 1920x1080 and 32-bit color.
3) "Top gaming card reviews often don't show scaling benefits unless there are large screens or multiple screens." This can be true, but evidence suggests it's not the case. Given their relative performance and data from the V3900 review (which I went back and eyeballed), it's incredibly unlikely that scaling is somehow limited to Quadro due to benchmark design.
The HH V7900/V5900 article was written by someone with a 2560x1600 monitor. If you would like to A) Donate or B) Annoy my boss into buying me one, I would be happy to use a 2560x1600 display in future professional GPU reviews. Until such time as this occurs, one does what one can with what one has.
4) To the best of my knowledge, none of the SPEC tests are configured to utilize 10-bit color workloads. In any event, I do not own a 10-bit monitor.
@JH: Thank you for the driver version numbers, resolution, and color settings. 1920x1200 or 1920x1080 may be the resolution for official submissions,so that will help comparisons. (My intent was not to lay any fault on you for rendering at the official submission resolution. I was trying to come up with ideas for other causes of the unexplained lack of scaling. I was also trying to explain why it may be reasonable for the prior review to maybe render larger than the official submission resolution. Sorry if I raised your hackles.)
No, not at all. Good feedback is how we create better reviews. If I sounded a bit tetchy, blame it on my own frustration at being unable to thus far explain these performance figures.
I am reluctant to blame ROP output without more data. Consumer-side tests have indicated that GCN makes substantially better use of its 32 ROPS, even if it doesn't increase the number over V7900.
Joel, one of my favorite is SolidWorks forum, or some discussions take place in linked in. Some link for starting search.
I built a new PC last month but I held off buying a firepro v7900 as I thought I'd wait for the W series to be released. The results seem to be a little disappointing. I'm sure they'll get better with a few driver updates but still...
Do you know when they'll actually be available to buy? Apparently they've 'launched', whatever that means, but no where (including AMD's website) is actually selling them yet.
My firm buys workstation hardware, and I am tasked with testing them before placing orders.
What I have seen is that viewperf scales with engine clock, and what seems to be some vendor tuning that is specific to the benchmark (because I'm not seeing the gains in our applications).
It is a useless benchmark IMO, so I am always surprised when you reviewers use it. Based on the time I have spent with it, I am amused and pleased to see that you are perplexed by it (because I have had similar hardship). APC is better, but not great. In the end, we run our own models (we are spending hundreds of thousands of $). I'm guessing that you don't have that luxury! :)
We use Quadro and FirePro - I don't think that the engineers know the difference (if they do, they are not complaining about it - and engineers love to complain about their tools). On spec, the W8000 looks like a good product for us, but W9000, that's pretty expensive. Makes way more sense to equip two engineers with W8000s.
Hopefully you can figure workstation products out, and I can reduce my workload! :) It's only every eight months or so that we test cards, but it is still a pain.
Good luck!
You could possibly help with that, if you could get permission to share your own tests (or create equivalents that could be shared). We'd absolutely be open to some collaboration and independent testing, and you'd have access to data that would slim your own workload.
If that's impossible, there's not much more we can do. The problem with workstation product testing is that these suites are capable of an enormous array of tasks. It's extremely difficult to duplicate "typical" workloads when so much of the information on what those workloads are is restricted.
If there's a way we can work together, let me know. If you can share data on what applications your firm uses and what you do with them -- background data, not for publication -- feel free to email me.
Couple of problems for me there:
1. Our models have our IP in them, so they can't go out the door
2. I don't actually design in CAD (I use a macro of a workload) so I'm not in a position to create a model for you
A potential problem for you is that you don't have a seat for the applications you want to test. I'm guessing not since they are expensive.
I mentioned APC earlier - it also requires the apps, but has tests. It is not great because it uses static images. So, as an example, you can't see what the performance would be if you are rotating a model, which is obviously important - perhaps most important.
An option might be getting APC and some applications on trial period (not sure if they still do that).
1) That's the problem I was worried about. Don't know if you have friends on the design teams who could whip up something that would create an equivalent load using simple shapes or stock / freely available scenes.
2) There's plenty of stock scenery around for most applications if the workload can be made to match it. Heck, the SPEC_APC tests themselves might be a suitable launch point.
Application availability is a non-issue. Free trials are ubiquitous and typically last 30 days -- more than enough for testing. In the few cases where this has been an issue, we've been able to work with vendors to secure access.
I bought a V7900 anyway (I got it cheaply off ebay,new but OEM) and installed it today. For my current project I'm using Modo which, as I had seen from a review elsewhere, does not work too well with the firepro series, presumably because ATI didn't bother to optimize the drivers for it.
I think their lack of support for Modo sums up the difference between Nvidia and ATI pretty well. ATI (usually) offer more bang for your buck, certainly from a hardware point of view but Nvidia bother to put in the work and support to make sure their hardware is doing all it can do.

Problem: Starting with his personal experience the author pursues the question: How can we alter our way of living, sensoriality and reflective skills so that we can handle today's information flows, which nowadays are so large that they create confusion and ineffective educational actions? Method: The approach to follow is called "parenthesism," a practice based on Maturana's theoretical frameworks of the "biology of cognition" and the "biology of love." Results: One of the findings when a person lives in parenthesism is the ability to see their own dogmatism and stubbornness when that person would otherwise be blind to his/her own convictions. Implications: Many aspects of this essay, and this manner of thinking, are circular and tautological, and hence may appear illogical to the reader. However, the author claims that existence is not solely logical, and that in a complex matrix circular and recursive relationships are common, and that these can best be understood through circular and recursive logics. Furthermore the relevance of parenthesism for UNESCO's view on learning paradigms is reviewed in this light.

Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1142/S0219876208001418
This paper investigates the contact problem for an arc crack, for example, under a remote compression. A hypersingular integral equation (HSIE) for curved cracks in plane elasticity is suggested. It is found that the direct usage of HSIE cannot solve the mentioned contact problem. For the contact problem, one must take necessary modifications for solving the HSIE. The main modified points are as follows. First, one should assume some portion along the crack under contact. The margin or the end of the contacted portion is determined by the vanishing normal contact stress at the margin point. In addition, it is found that a suggested quadrature rule in conjunction with the curve length method provides a very effective way to solve the HSIE. Finally, several numerical examples are given.

Pink Lace Bryozoan Iodictyum phoeniceum
Pink lace bryozoan colonies feel hard and brittle to the touch because the walls of the individual zooids are reinforced with calcareous material. The colony is shaped like curly-edged potato chips with a lacework of small holes. Its beautiful dark pink to purple color remains even after the colony is dead and dried. This species prefers to live in areas with some current, and its holes may help reduce the force of the water against it. Similar species are found on coral reefs throughout the Indo-Pacific region.

Vibrant, upright and feathery blooms in deep red are a standout against bronze green, finely cut foliage.
The compact Red Astilbe is easy to grow and a quick reproducer.
This is a low maintenance, hardy perennial.
The Red Astilbe is also extremely tolerant of periods of drought, heat and cold...this is one tough plant!
The Astilbe is quickly gaining in popularity as gardeners learn about all they have to offer... it is an attractive anchor of the shade and woodland gardens.
Try pairing them with Hostas and Ferns for a dramatic contrast of color and form.
Astilbes also work well in mass plantings of 5 or more where they do not have to compete with tree or shrub roots.
These make excellent cut flowers and the long lasting blooms add a breathtaking accent to any fresh flower arrangement.
Many orders are shipped the next day unless otherwise noted on our website.
Due to the extreme winter season, all orders sent to
regions below will be delayed.
No one delivers quicker. This ensures that your plants arrive in the best condition possible, ready to pack on vibrant color.
Brighter Blooms Nursery ships most items throughout the year, when it's most convenient for you. Most other nurseries send orders out only twice a year (spring and fall), making you wait weeks or months to receive your plants.
If you wish to delay your order, please Contact Us or call 800-399-9514.
We strive to bring you the healthiest plants possible, so we ship via FedEx. We've tested all the major shipping carriers, and FedEx is the quickest and most reliable.
With Brighter Blooms, you get large, well-developed 1 and 3 gallon plants- not tiny quarts and liners. These older plants bloom faster, give you more color, and require less maintenance.
We've found out that other nurseries chop off branches just so that it will fit into the smallest box possible. This can damage your plant severely, and leads to disappointing performance. We don't do this- your plants have been pruned throughout the year by plant experts to encourage the most blooms and best form.
Shipping charges are approximately 19% off your order. Sorry, we cannot ship plants to Alaska, Hawaii or PO Boxes.

Enter to win the Hotel for Dogs soundtrack
"Hotel for Dogs," stars Emma Roberts, Jake T. Austin, Lisa Kudrow, Kevin Dillon and Don Cheadle in a smart, funny comedy adventure that shows how far love and imagination can take you. When their new guardians forbid 16-year old Andi (Roberts) and her younger brother, Bruce (Austin) to have a pet, Andi has to use her quick wit to help find a new home for their dog, Friday. The resourceful kids stumble upon an abandoned hotel and using Bruce's talents as a mechanical genius, transform it into a magical dog-paradise for Friday – and eventually for all Friday's friends. When barking dogs make the neighbors suspicious, Andi and Bruce use every invention they have to avoid anyone discovering "who let the dogs in."

Review this movie
Oct 10, 2012Our unsmiling protagonist pines on and on through bedrooms, country houses, architect school, and late adolescence and early adulthood, unable to get a real life because she can't get the old boyfriend off her mind. At least she learned to let go of a hat!
Aug 17, 2012Sweet and harmless, this film evokes emotion and memories. As a viewer who's at the same age as the characters in the film, I can relate to some of the things and still learn from how much the characters change and mature themselves, regardless how their relationship evolves.
Apr 25, 2012Although well-made in terms of direction, photography, and performance, this film cannot escape the maudlin qualities of the traditional love story. The lovers are callow and perhaps underdeveloped, so it is impossible to care much about them. If you find that the film's title puts you on the verge of allergic reaction, do not go.
We think of first love as sweet and valuable, a blessed if hazardous condition. This film, deeper than it seems, dares to suggest that beyond a certain point, it can represent a tragedy.
Goodbye First Love doesn't badger the viewer into drawing conclusions. It's interested in showing, with great compassion, how Camille comes to a fuller understanding of the world and herself, without the sort of prefab lessons more often found in films than in real life.
Goodbye First Love is like a postcard from a lost Eden, a painfully pure oasis where we're not allowed to linger.

Pizza of the Week :
Homemade whole wheat crust with various veggie toppings. Eaten with my family for our week-early Christmas celebration.
Best Think I Ate or Drank This Week:
Cinnamon rolls with maple mocha frosting. Recipe coming tomorrow.
Best Workout of the Week:
Guh. None. Does running around like a maniac getting Christmas stuff done count?
Best Deal of the Week:
My brand new winter coat. Purchased specifically to take to Canada with us next week. It hit -35° in my husband's home town this week. I freaked and decided I needed a new coat. My Southern Indiana thin wool coat was not going to cut it. I got this 4-in-1 coat for a STEAL! Woohoo!
Best of the Internet for the Week:
My Babyface wins the award for this one with his adorable self-portrait. How cute is he?
Favorite Blog Post of the Week:
Emily at Daily Garnish (née The Front Burner blog) wins again with her post about NOT having to run a marathon to be a runner. I struggle a lot with feeling like a "runner" or an "athlete" and it was so nice to hear what Emily had to say.
Favorite Photo of the Week:
I needed to knead dough this week. And cinnamon rolls were a great excuse.
Saddest Moment of the Week:
Waking up this morning with a sore throat. I'm shotgunning Echinacea tea.
Happiest Moment of the Week:
Decorating cookies with Babyface.
Triumph of the Week:
Knocking out all my Christmas baking in one day. Nothing like making a list and actually being able to cross each item off of it.
Warm and Fuzzy Moment of the Week:
Shopping for our Salvation Army Angel Tree kids and dropping bags and bags of toys off at the Salvation Army.
Happy weekend! I am officially on vacation for two weeks starting today. Yippee!! I'm in Southern Indiana for my family Christmas this weekend and plan on drinking a lot and eating even more.
P.S. I attempted to write this post on an iPad and got so frustrated that I borrowed Babyface's computer. Yeesh. Not easy to write a photo-driven blog on an iPad.

Shameful campaign about fat, black, bald and ruddy peoplePosted by Marc van Gurp | 10-03-2014 16:30 | Category: Discrimination, Women's Issues
This is the yearly campaign from the Belgian Zij-kant.
The translation explains it all:
"Fat people should earn less."
Smaller copy at the bottom:
"You think this is outrageous for fat people. Why not for women?"
"Women still earn 21% less than men."
The video below is in Dutch, the idea is the same as in the print ad.
The three other campaign items are about black, bald and ruddy people. And women.
See them after the break.
In 2005 Zij-kant and ABVV Women launched Equal Pay Day in Belgium for the first time. Modeled after an American idea 'Equal Pay Day' is a day meant to expose and criticize the wage gap between women and men.
Some figures about the Belgian situation:
- ugly men earn 22% less than an average man, because they are considered less successful.
- bald men are more successful because they are seen as more dominant and more authoritative.
- fat women earn 6% less than their thinner colleagues.
- workers from the Maghreb countries and sub-Saharan Africa earn to 5 euros per hour less than Belgians.

I get a lot of large red blemishes which sometimes scab over too, I only use a little dab from my finger (too much is noticeably orange) and dot it on and around the affected area. it really conceals my skin problems and lasts relatively long depending on the weather and what activities I'm doing! I don't tend to use it under my eyes much as I feel it brings out my dark circles more but definitely on obvious blemishes!

This is the first large refrigerator we have ever owned and it really works well for us. We have only used it for three weeks or so but we love it. I have seen earlier reviews saying that the fridge was noisy, a criticism I question. I cannot believe how quiet this fridge runs. Our only mistake was not getting the water filtration system included but that was an error on our part. The fridge is elegantly styled and fits perfectly for our lifestyle.

I have had the same problem with leaking as the other reviewers (TWICE now). I hope Whirlpool is paying attention because this is clearly a problem that is not confined to only a few people and the company really needs to address this issue and provide a fix. Water pools at the bottom of the freezer and freezes and eventually the ice gets so thick that it drains out onto the floor. The first time it was fixed under warranty ("drain clog"), this time it was not under warranty so I was determined to fix it myself. What is happening is that the drain under the drip pan (under the freezer coils) is getting frozen over and clogged with ice. Eventually the entire pan fills with ice and then begins to spill onto the freezer bottom, then eventually onto the kitchen floor. This probably first occurred if the freezer door was left partially open which allowed extra condensation to form inside. If you own this product you know this is VERY easy to do...you really have to throw your weight into the door to close it all the way (which is a another complaint in my opinion). Naturally, the drain is not easily accessible and it is not simple to unclog. So, there are two possible fixes: 1) Defrost the freezer. Clearly the simplest way to get rid of ice. If your freezer was anything like mine, there was a ton of ice accumulation so I'd suggest letting it defrost for at least 24 hours. Trust me, this is the easiest method and will yield the same results as fixing it yourself or even having a repairman come out. 2) I only did it this way because I was still trying to figure out the actual problem, so again I suggest just defrosting. But to access the drip pan, you have to take off the freezer door and the racks and take off the back panel inside the freezer. However, you can't take it all the way off unless you remove the ice maker, but it is a flimsy piece of metal so I was able to just bend it to access the pan and expose the coils. You have to chisel what was an INSANE amount of ice (I wish I could post a picture on here) out of all the piping, the pan, and the drain. I realized I couldn't get full access to the drain so I had to remove the back bottom of the freezer to be able to clean the drain from the bottom. More work than it's worth. Bottom line: It's an easy fix so DON'T CALL A REPAIRMAN if not under warranty (unless it is another issue). Again, Whirlpool needs to address this, or at least let customers know of this problem. Seems to me it is a design flaw...there is a tiny little slit in the bottom of the drip pan that spills into a 1/4 inch wide drain. I'm no engineer but that seems like an avoidable problem to me (how easy is it for that small of an opening to get frozen over?). And I'm just speculating about the freezer door being left open causing extra condensation building up, maybe it's a bigger problem. Another irritation is that the temperature control unit is right at the front in the top middle of the fridge and takes up about half of the width of the top shelf. Vertical space on the top shelf is tight anyway, and any taller items (e.g. gallon of milk or a two gallon pitcher) will not fit under that unit, so you have to pull them out from the SIDES, which of course severely limits accessibility. Otherwise, it is an "ok" product. No complaints about performance and it is a sharp looking fridge.

Ice dam

Comments about Whirlpool Black Bottom Freezer Refrigerator:
Looks beautiful. Worked fine for a year. Now my ice maker doesn't work. I have ice build up at the bottom of the freezer. I called in a tech, he said I need a new ice maker. Then he pinched my water line and didn't replace it. Now I have a puddle of water everyday at the corner of my floor.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Good Replacement
By TexMexMom
from El Paso, TX, United States
Enjoying the wide space of this French door model. We definitely love the Stainless look in our kitchen. Two minor flaws if you can call them that: Loud water filling of ice maker (caught off guard can cause you jump) and odd placement of temperature control at front middle of top shelf makes it difficult to maneuver tall items around (items need to be removed to be able to pull out others so as not to tip them over to get them out).
Sweet features
By reganp

I bought this product nearly a month ago. It is a great Whirlpool product with nice features. a few downsides- only makes 6-8 pieces of ice at a time, the freezer light often doesn't come on (due to a sticky switch?), location of water dispenser is inconvenient..
Very pleased.

10 Celebrities' Hidden Talents

Conan OBrien Tap Dances
Thanks to a strong childhood interest in old black-and-white films, O'Brien took up tap dancing as a kid. He thought it was the only way he'd make it in show business! His talent clearly hasn't faded: He surprised audiences in early 2012 by tap-dancing on his desk on his TBS talk show, Conan. It was a tribute to that year's Best Picture Oscar winner, The Artist. No word on whether his fancy footwork helped him graduate magna cum laude from Harvard.

US provides Vt. money to fix roads after floodsThe Associated Press | July 26,2013MONTPELIER - The U.S. Department of Transportation is providing Vermont $1 million to help the state recover from a series of spring and summer floods that damaged roads across the state.
The Federal Highway Administration's Emergency Relief Program provides funds for the repair or reconstruction of some federal roads and bridges damaged by natural disasters or catastrophic events.
The three members of Vermont's congressional delegation say the money is a much-needed infusion of federal funds to help towns throughout Vermont repair roads.
The storms began in May and lasted until early July. There were about 30 separate road segments closed by storm damage.
Significant damage was reported in nine counties.
Parts of the state were declared a federal disaster area following the May and early June floods.

OWENSBORO, Ky. (6/7/13) – A Daviess County man was arrested on charges related to child pornography Wednesday after the Kentucky State Police served a search warrant at his Owensboro home.
Cliff J. Carlock, 39, is charged with 20 counts of Possession of Matter Portraying a Sexual Performance by a Minor, which is a class D felony. Carlock was arrested without incident at 1:30 Wednesday afternoon by the Kentucky State Police. He was charged and taken to the Daviess County Detention Center in Owensboro on a $100,000 cash bond.
Carlock was arrested by the Kentucky State Police ICAC Task Force as a result of an undercover investigation into the possession of images of child sexual exploitation. The investigation resulted in the execution of a search warrant at Mr. Carlock's residence in Owensboro by the Kentucky State Police ICAC Task Force and Post 16 troopers. Detectives seized evidence that was allegedly being used to possess child pornography and it was taken to the Kentucky State Police forensic laboratory for examination.
Kentucky State Police is a member of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC).

Who wants to go to Emory? Summer 2013 ABSN/MSN - page 8
To anyone else who put in an application to Emory this fall and is anxiously awaiting news from the office of admissions: let's wait together! Only about 8 weeks until this seemingly impossible wait will be coming to an end... ... Read More
- 0Feb 23, '13 by SMB13I'm in the same situation! I've already paid a deposit to Jefferson, but am really debating between Emory and Columbia. I would love to go to either school but it's going to come down to cost for me... I just wish Emory would provide financial aid awards before the deposit is due!
- 0Mar 1, '13 by sjames99SMB13 I too am debating between Emory and Columbia... I would love to chat with you and ask you a few questions if you're up for it! I can't PM since I don't have enough posts but my email address is email@example.com if you get a second and could shoot me an email? Thank you and I look forward to talking to you!
- 0Mar 2, '13 by T-DashaCongrats to all of those that have been accepted! I finished the ABSN portion in August and I definitely know I made the right decision by choosing to attend Emory.
If anyone has any questions feel free to post or PM me....I know this can be a nerve-wrecking time making decisions on which school to choose and also considering financial aid options. Congrats again!
- 0Mar 3, '13 by HealthEnthusiastI still haven't heard anything from financial aid. One of my parents just recently sent in their CSS profile, so I expect that it will take a while for processing. I really want to hear something about the scholarship/fellowship soon though. Even if it's bad news, at this point I just want to put an end to this long wait.
T-Dasha, do you happen to know how Fuld Fellowship and Woodruff Scholarship applicants are notified (by phone, email, letter), and if they contact everyone who applied, including those who aren't selected?
All of the unknowns are so overwhelming! I am probably annoying the heck out of my family members with my constantly frantic mood. I just want to go to Emory so badly, and it won't be possible without significant outside help. Hopefully next week we will all get more info...
On a lighter note, have you all checked out the school email accounts? I know it's not much to get excited over, but it makes my future at EU feel a little more real.
- 0Mar 8, '13 by T-DashaHey...I didn't apply for the Fuld but I asked one of my friends who did. She said eventually they did receive notification that they had not been awarded the scholarship. However, by the time they received the notification it was like a few weeks before school so she basically already knew that she hadn't gotten it at that point.
- 0Mar 9, '13 by HealthEnthusiastOk, thanks for asking around for us!

A dinglet is a smaller piece of feces than a dingleberry.
That Sheepdog had a string of dinglets hanging out the back of his ass.
