Environmental Quality Incentives Program
Loading Tree...
The Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) provides financial and technical assistance to agricultural producers in order to address natural resource concerns and deliver environmental benefits such as improved water and air quality, conserved ground and surface water, reduced soil erosion and sedimentation or improved or created wildlife habitat.
Eligible program participants receive financial and technical assistance to implement conservation practices, or activities like conservation planning, that address natural resource concerns on their land. Payments are made to participants after conservation practices and activities identified in an EQIP plan of operations are implemented. Contracts can last up to ten years in duration.
Agricultural producers and owners of non-industrial private forestland and Tribes are eligible to apply for EQIP. Eligible land includes cropland, rangeland, pastureland, non-industrial private forestland and other farm or ranch lands.
Socially disadvantaged, beginning and limited resource farmers, Indian tribes and veterans are eligible for an increased payment rate and may receive advance payment of up to 50 percent to purchase materials and services needed to implement conservation practices included in their EQIP contract.
Applicants must:
Additional restrictions and program requirements may apply.
Visit your local USDA Service Center to apply or visit www.nrcs.usda.gov/getstarted.
NRCS will help eligible producers develop an EQIP plan of operations, which will become the basis of the EQIP contract.
EQIP applications will be ranked based on a number of factors, including the environmental benefits and cost effectiveness of the proposal.

Hiya everybody, I got some issues here...
I've been searching loads of things about hackintosh and stuff everywhere but I couldn't find the answer for this..
My case seems to be so odd!
What I want to do is install Mountain Lion in the same drive as Windows 7 is installed (in a different partition obviously) and have dual boot with both.
I don't want to reinstall Windows or format anything in the drive (I already got a partition separated for Mountain Lion that can be formatted of whatever needed).
My disk is MBR and I'm using it in RAID with an SSD using the "Intel Smart Response Technology" (only for Windows, I suppose), and my MOBO has UEFI.
Another thing is that I don't have a Mac to use and prepare the USB drive (I'd prefer to install it from a USB drive).
(If REALLY necessary I can get to use my friend's Mac as a last resort..)
From what I've read my system should be compatible:
CPU: Intel Core i5 3450
MOBO: Asrock Z77E-ITX
VGA: MSI GTX 660Ti
RAM: 2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance
HDD: 1.5TB Seagate (the main one) and 64GB Crucial M4 SSD (cache)
I need to have Mountain Lion just so I can use Logic Pro.. (I'm doing Music Uni)
And I can't live without Windows (Games and stuff)...
Is what I'm trying to do even possible? How?
If not, how can I make it work?
Any thoughts?
Thank you very much!
Is this even possible? (Dual boot, a few issues..)

Is not only about installing Mountain Lion in the drive as Windows 7...
I've googled that and MILLIONS of other things and there always seems to be a problem with my setup, the way I want it...
Just so you know, I ALWAYS try to figure things out by myself reading other people's posts, but this is a real problem.. (specially cause I don't have Mac experience)..
It is the second time in my entire computer life that I get to post something...
Anyway.. If I just ignore some of those issues (such as MBR and RAID) and try to install it straight away, will it work?
What can I use to dual boot in a system with UEFI?
I don't wanna screw things up here..
Posted 03 October 2012 - 02:10 PM
when I duel booted, I partitioned my HDD, installed windows, then installed OSX, installed chameleon and all was good
Posted 03 October 2012 - 03:13 PM
easiest way if you don't know about mac, get another drive, you will screw up your windows!! get it running by itself then dual boot, or prepare to do lts of reading
Posted 03 October 2012 - 04:06 PM
If this is your first attempt, I second that you should do it on two driver instead of with partitions. You could easily lose your Windows installation if you do something wrongly. MBR isn't an issue, just patch the installer for MBR installations.
Posted 03 October 2012 - 04:19 PM
Thanks everyone,
I read somewhere that Charmeleon isn't compatible with UEFI systems, something like that.. Is it?
I'll grab another drive here.. When you say lose Windows installation you mean the Windows installation (boot stuff) or the whole drive?
Thanks again!

Posted 04 October 2012 - 12:17 AM
It would pretty much be the boot stuff you corrupt, but that could easily turn into the entire drive
Posted 07 October 2012 - 07:09 AM
How are you using RAID, as a true array, or just SSD boot cache? Chameleon can boot UEFI but it's a multi step boot, while Clover can use EFI boot. Read the thread for far better explanation http://www.insanelym...2787-clover-v2/
Posted 07 October 2012 - 01:30 PM
He has win on MBR disk - meaning it's bios win install, not uefi. Mobo supports uefi, but Win is installed in legacy bios mode. Meaning - Chameleon would also be fine.

At Piper Jaffray's 28th Annual Consumer Conference, held here earlier this week at the St. Regis Hotel, Bare Escentuals Inc. declared its proclivity to break the rules when it comes to cosmetics and sell products with a personal approach.
After all, using its "girlfriend" sales approach the company has persuaded legions of women to ditch their liquid foundation for mineral powder, noted Jim Taschetta, chief marketing officer of Bare Escentuals. Doing things differently seems to have worked in the company's favor. Bare Escentuals is currently the leading beauty infomercial and the number-one brand on QVC and in Ulta and Sephora, said Taschetta.
He declared that Bare Escentuals' success in the foundation category has provided the company with a formula to bring in new users. The core growth strategies include growing its number of foundation users and then leveraging that base to expand into eye, lip and skin care products. Bare Escentuals plans to implement that same formula globally.
The company so far has a small consumer base. At present, nearly 74 percent of women are aware of mineral makeup, but only about 25 percent have tried it, according to the company. That said, Taschetta noted 60 percent of women polled report they are somewhat or extremely likely to try mineral foundation.
To guide their hand, Bare Escentuals this fall will introduce a refreshed Get Started Kit with a consistent price point of $60 across all channels. The kit, said Taschetta, is the number-one way women begin using the brand. The revamped kit will be supported by some 900,000 samples at retail.
Taschetta said the company is also heavily investing to build its skin care business, which currently consists of three RareMinerals products. The company launched the franchise in 2006 with a nighttime treatment product and recently added RareMinerals Blemish Therapy and Facial Cleanser.
According to the company's research, 78 percent of women surveyed report that they would like to see skin care products from Bare Escentuals. He added the company is bent on creating a complete skin care range with a "good for you" positioning over the next few years.

Concert Review: Journey, Steve Miller Band bring the classic rock memories at DTE
By Gary Graff, The Oakland Press
Energy Music Theatre turned into time capsule on Wednesday night, July 9, blasting back in time with a mash-up of music from the '80s (Journey), '70s (the Steve Miller Band) and '60s (Tower of Power) — and, of course, references to the venue as the Pine Knob they all played at decades ago.
During more than three hours of music, in fact, there were only two songs played from this century. Suffice to say the old school ruled — which is exactly what the near-capacity crowd was there for, anyway... Read More
Steve Miller, Journey bring different sounds to First Niagara Pavilion
By Rick Nowlin / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
For fans of San Francisco Bay area music, First Niagara Pavilion was the place to be Friday as 1970s stalwarts Tower of Power, the Steve Miller Band and Journey graced the stage.
Interestingly enough, the bands' origins and extensive catalogs are all they had in common, as they all play different styles of music.
Mr. Miller and company opened with "Jungle Love," dropped in key a step-and-a-half from the original, and his lead vocals seemed a little weak throughout the set — of course, he was never a true belter anyway — but the harmony vocals were consistently strong and made up for it. The end of "Take the Money and Run" featured a "piano" solo from Joseph Wooten that recalled Lynyrd Skynyrd's Billy Powell on "Sweet Home Alabama," which features similar chord changes... Read More
Journey, Steve Miller, and Tower of Power Light up SPAC
By Jim Gilbert, upstatelive.com
When Tower of Power took the stage, the amphitheater was still empty. The tailgating crowd outside didn't quite understand what they were missing. While Tower of Power isn't a household name like Steve Miller or Journey, their talents are definitely on par. The smart music fans were already in their seat when the show started and were blessed by waves of talent and soul a mile deep, drowning in goodness. Hits like "Soul Vaccination" and "What is Hip?" got even the band's newest fans on their feet to feel the soul power overtaking Saratoga Saturday night. Equipped with a new lead singer, Ray Greene, and the traditional line-up of saxes, trumpets, trombones, along with a solid backline of drums, guitar and bass, Tower of Power brings the energy and great music every night.....

Wooten Brothers share music and life lessons at Denbigh High
NEWPORT NEWS — A Grammy-winning band of brothers on Tuesday brought their soaring musical talent back to one of the places where it first took flight, Denbigh High School in Newport News.

Yesterday morning, the Inspector General's Office for the Department of Justice released a scathing report on the failings of the DOJ in Operation Fast and Furious. While the report was certainly critical across the board, the report serves as convenient cover for the Attorney General, Eric Holder. But then again, Nixon's subordinates were fed to the wolves before the scandal reached his doorstep, too.
The report offers sharp criticism of 14 Holder subordinates in their utter disregard for public safety by allowing guns to "walk" across the border and into the hands of Mexican drug cartels without any real ability to track the weapons and in spite of warnings by gun dealers that straw purchases were occurring.
The Inspector General's report is being presented to a Congressional Oversight hearing today by current IG Michael Horowitz. The bulk of the report was done by former IG Cynthia Schnedar, a close friend of Holder.
The report discusses the failures of 14 DOJ officials in the debacle that has become a stain on the already ironically-named Department of Justice. The report recommends disciplinary actions by the DOJ for the 14 officials- including Criminal Division head Lanny Breuer. However, the report stopped short of implicating Holder, claiming that he was not made aware of the ineptitude until February of last year.
Immediately following the report, DOJ Deputy Assistant Attorney General Jason Weinstein, who was heavily criticized in the report, resigned.
The report provides convenient cover for the Attorney General by sticking to this central premise: "We aren't traitorous, we're incompetent! But Holder had no knowledge of our incompetence, so we offer Congress these sacrificial lambs in the hope that this will slate their thirst for justice."
While I have no problem believing the DOJ is inept, I maintain that they are both inept and treasonous, as the timing of the "botched gun-walking operation" coincides with calls for stricter gun control, citing violence on the border being caused by the weapons the DOJ was pushing across the border.
Further, the complete stonewalling by the DOJ in violation of subpoenas signals a presence of worse crimes than simple ineptitude; after all, we already know the operation was bungled. Are we supposed to believe that Holder is refusing to cooperate with Congress to keep Congress from knowing the extent of ineptitude on behalf of his department? It is infinitely more likely his stonewalling is protecting a complete and utter disregard for public safety, his complicity in actively violating gun laws to infuse Mexican cartels with weapons to justify stricter gun laws, or both.
The IG report concludes that though the DOJ received information about Fast and Furious, that Holder did not receive such information. The report states,
"We found no evidence that Department or ATF staff informed Holder about Operation Fast and Furious prior to 2011. Melson stated that he did not inform Holder about the investigation, and Burke said he did not recall doing so. Melson also stated that the Department was not involved in formulating any of the tactical decisions in the investigation. Holder said that Melson did not identify to him any problems about Operation Fast and Furious in 2009 and 2010.
Our investigation did not identify evidence that contradicted Holder's statements to us regarding his knowledge of Operation Fast and Furious and the use of "gun walking" tactics in that investigation. As we describe below, we identified information regarding Operation Fast and Furious that reached the Office of the Attorney General in 2010 but not Attorney General Holder himself. However, we found no evidence that this information included the inappropriate tactics at issue in Operation Fast and Furious."
Oh, okay. Well, if Holder's word is good enough for the Inspector General's Office…
Seriously, this is supposed to be an objective review of the facts to root out wrongdoing. Holder has claimed under oath that he had not learned of Fast and Furious prior to the few weeks prior to his testimony, May 3rd, 2011. However, the DOJ handed over information that outlined weekly updates on the operation to his office as early as July 5th, 2010. So, despite the fact that we have proof of briefings he was receiving nearly a year before he claims he was made aware of the fiasco, we are supposed to just take his word that, for some reason, he didn't see any of these briefings? If you believe that, please contact me; I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you at a fair price.
As we continue to wait to see justice done, the DOJ seems content to self-criticize with the hope that internal discipline will suffice; it won't. While Congress has yet to receive the cooperation it demands, the American people cannot be expected to simply take the word of Holder and believe that he merely did not see briefings on this operation, especially considering his lack of cooperation in this matter.
Furthermore, even if Holder was not reading information passed to him, the question remains, "Why not?" It's a sad statement that we expect so little from our government that they actually believe, "I was asleep at the wheel," is a viable excuse for criminal activity and bloodshed on their watch.
This was an internal investigation that suspended common sense to offer a sacrificial lamb to provide cover for the criminals involved in the false flag operation that left Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry dead by guns put into the hands of criminals by our own government. If this is the level of "transparency" we can expect in the Obama Administration's Justice Department, I suggest a regime change.
To get involved, please sign this petition at TheTeaParty.net demanding Eric Holder's prosecution. Over 576,000 letters have been sent out so far, demanding action by our government!

I have NO idea if the Preseed or the wine caused our success, or maybe the drugs got my ovaries going....who knows, but I also have a co-worker who used Preseed the month she got pregnant after trying for a year without treatments (she was young...in her 30s, but that was the one thing they did different the month they conceived. Just wanted to share those stories too...

A series of 5 minute interviews featuring travel industry leaders.
This week's MAC Chat features our interview with Mark Carlson, Director of Marketing for Star Clippers.
For more information: http://www.starclippers.com
What makes your cruise line unique from others?
Star Clippers is a cruise line that operates a fleet of authentic tall ships. The unique four- and five-masted vessels boast wide-open decks and the thrill of cruising under sail. Yet the ships have all of the modern luxuries travelers have come to expect.
The size of the ships — they carry just 227 or 170 passengers — enables them to call at lesser-visited ports and exclusive harbors that the larger ships can't visit, allowing guests to become totally immersed in the regions we explore.
Water sports also play a big part in our experience. With plenty of water time on many of our itineraries, guests can take advantage of complimentary water sports directly from the ships' aft marina – including snorkeling, water skiing and wind surfing; and Star Clippers also offers scuba instruction.
On our ocean crossings, Star Clippers even allows guests to go for a swim in the middle of the ocean, weather permitting, of course!
What destinations do you visit?
Our itineraries are extremely diverse. There's something for everyone, from tropical to historical to nature infused.
In the summer, all three ships explore the eastern and western Mediterranean, calling at ports in Italy, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia, Spain, Morocco, France and Turkey, to name a few.
Come winter, Star Clipper and Royal Clipper cruise the Caribbean, while Star Flyer heads to Costa Rica, Panama and Nicaragua.
We also offer grand ocean crossings that are about more than simply getting from here to there — they are journeys that allow guests to experience the thrill of traversing an ocean under sail, to look out onto the horizon and see nothing but a blue backdrop behind the billowing sails.
What should clients expect to experience on your ships?
A Start Clippers cruise is like taking a vacation on your own, private mega-yacht — with 170 or 227 of your closest friends. On board, guests dress in resort-casual attire and dine in a single, open seating. And passengers are exposed to an authentic clipper ship experience, whether they enjoy the bowsprit net suspended over the sea, attend a knot-tying class, help raise and lower the sails or climb the mast for a panoramic view.
Staterooms are elegantly appointed, with all the amenities one has come to expect from a fine resort. The decor is tastefully traditional. Guests will find the accouterments of a luxurious classic yacht. Burnished brass fittings and mahogany brightwork recall our nautical heritage. Soft natural fabrics reflect the colors of the sun, sea and sky. Prints of famous clipper ships and sailing yachts grace the walls.
Most days guests can be found lounging on our expansive teak decks with swimming pools and plenty of space to relax and read a good book.
What are your key selling features?
Authentic sailing adventure.
Just 170 or 227 pampered guests.
All the modern amenities of a private mega-yacht.
International cuisine complemented by fine wines.
Dine with whomever and whenever you want.
Casual, relaxed ambience – no need to dress up.
Off the beaten path ports of call.
Sail in full harmony with the environment.
No crowds or long lines.
Full range of water sports.
Who are the best target customers for travel agents?
Passengers who love to sail or who are looking for adventure. Passengers looking for an intimate experience. We offer a unique vacation, from the type of ships we operate to the intimate mature of our line. Also, travelers who are social. We do not have a casino or show lounge on our ships. The evening entertainment may consist of local performers coming on board or music from our on-board musician, but most of the time our guests socialize with each other in the Tropical Bar in the evening. Our guests are extremely friendly and by the end of the voyage everyone knows each other.
Thank you Mark for that great interview!

USLHT Mangrove, a 821-ton light house tender, was built at Elizabethport, New Jersey, in 1897. She served the Light House Service and Coast Guard as a navigation aids tender for nearly fifty years. In the Spanish-American War, and during both World Wars, Mangrove served with the U.S. Navy. She was classified WAGL-232 during the Second World War. Soon after the end of that conflict, she was decommissioned and was sold for scrapping in March 1947.
This page features 1898 views of and on board USLHT Mangrove.

Tories at their best
Conservatives not prepared to tolerate sleaze - Telegraph
In some ways, this episode showed the Tory party at its worst. A baying throng took over Conservative blogs, howling for a ritual execution. Cameron is known to read blogs and might have been affected by what he read on Monday evening. Perhaps conservativehome.com claimed its first political scalp this week. Virtually every one of the hundreds of comments called for Conway's head. The vitriol had to be read to be believed. It was the same on my blog. If these people do represent the Tory grassroots, the grass had been well and truly uprooted. The message was clear: up with sleaze we will not put.
Although it made uncomfortable reading, this reaction demonstrates that the Conservative Party has changed. The membership won't put up with any sign of wrongdoing and doesn't hesitate to tell the leadership so.
I disagree - I think it showed Tories at their best, passionate about upholding standards. And a great contrast to the nuLabour machine.

Time Heals All Wounds and Changes All Bodies
This is something that has concerned me for sometime. As I learned more about proper nutrition and training, it conflicted with what I was seeing and reading. The reality is, you just cannot an "amazing" body with safe practices. And, by "amazing" I mean, whatever your ideal is--a softer frame, the curvy bikini body, the slightly more muscular fitness model, figure competitor, figure competitor (circa 2007), women's physique, or bodybuilding. Depending on your starting point and your goals, you are going to have to put in work to get it and to keep it. Kudos to those who are working their way there and who have gotten there. But, I think something that needs to be remembered when we are looking at those inspirational photos.
First, remember your own journey and why you are doing it. It does not have to be all deep. Shoot, looking and feeling great are great reasons. Second, listen to your body. Rest and recover when you need it. Respect any injuries that you have. Finally,avoid extreme practices. Now, some would say that preparing for a show is "extreme". However, if done under knowledgeable and responsible coach; the process can be quiet enjoyable and safe. The "by any means necessary" approach has consequences. As a matter of fact, I am chatting with a former competitor on Facebook, who just read the post. And, all she wants is the body that she used to have; the one that responded to simple good food, exercise, consistency, and time.

I agree with you 100%. And don't feel bad about it or search for a reason that justifies it....this is what you want to do, period.
Not too many MILs go to these anyway so it's not like she's expecting it. We invited mine and she was completely shocked and very grateful. She wrote us a very nice ty card afterwards.
I don't think you should feel bad at all. I think it's nice that you even are inviting your mom. It's not a given that anyone be with you and DH when you go for an u/s. Don't feel guilted into it.
My parents were out of town when we had our u/s and my in-laws live out of town. Even if everyone lived 2 minutes from me I don't think I would have invited them...I liked having the moment with just my DH. To each their own.
Just my two cents!
Personally, we didn't want to invite anyone else. It was a special moment between me and DH. And we didn't find out the sex either. I'm pretty close with my MIL. If my mom had gotten to go and she didn't I know her feelings would have been hurt.
If you want to invite your mom, you should talk with DH and get his thoughts.
I agree with you. I have had my mom at an u/s recently, I just feel like she is my mother and i want her to be there. My MIL has a daughter that she can experience all of these things with her one day as well. My MIL didn't take the news very well though that I just want my mom and my husband in the room when LO is born. But I feel I need to draw some boundries with her, she is a tad controlling. Good Luck!

Human Systems Integration (HSI)
The Human Systems Integration (HSI) initiative is focused on the role of the human in the Department of Defense (DoD) acquisition process. The objective of HSI is to provide equal consideration of the human along with the hardware and software in the technical and technical management processes for engineering a system that will optimize total system performance and minimize total ownership costs. The DoD has formalized the role of HSI within the acquisition process through Interim DoDI 5000.0, 2 Enclosure 7 and Defense Acquisition Guidebook Chapter 6.
The Duncan Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009, Report 110-652, requested that the OSD (AT&L) develop a comprehensive plan for HSI. The Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Technology) and the Director of Biological Systems within the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Science and Technology) jointly submitted an HSI report to Congress in March 2009. The DoD HSI Management Plan was a key part of the HSI Congressional Report. The OSD HSI management planning approach was for OSD to develop an overarching plan with supporting annexes from the Services. The DoD HSI Management Plan defines how HSI is managed within the DoD and serves as the blueprint for FY2009 activities. The DoD HSI Management Plan and supporting annexes will be updated on a yearly basis.
The latest DoD HSI Management Plan and accompanying annexes are provided below for information:
- FY11 Department of Defense Human Systems Integration Management Plan, Version 1.0
- US Army Human Systems Integration Plan: FY11 Plan to be provided
- FY2011 Naval Human Systems Integration Management Plan, Version 3.0
- United States Air Force Human Systems Integration FY11 Management Plan
The Joint Human Systems Integration (HSI) Working Group (JHSIWG) charter articulates the working group's mission, scope, and function.
The DoD HSI Course Catalog 2012 lists HSI courses available from the Defense Acquisition University, the Air Force Institute of Technology, and the Naval Postgraduate School:

Writes DB:
Thanks for the good words you blogged about Frank Meyer. I need to look for that book.
In my youth when I thought eastern intellectual conservatives like WFB were cool, I found columns by Frank Meyer and Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn the most challenging and stimulating among all the NR writers. Meyer's "fusionism" may have been the kindling that eventually ignited the fire so many erstwhile conservatives experienced when their journey took them to Rothbard, Hayek and Mises. At least that was my experience, after an early dose of Hazlitt via Newsweek immunized me from the Keynesian fever college econ courses often brought on.
I can't cite a specific article because my boxes of National Review issues were discarded some time ago in a move, but I do recall that Buckley wrote a lengthy tribute to Frank Meyer, perhaps right after his death. In it, he told of Meyer's conversion to Catholicism in his final days, which of course WFB took credit for. He also wrote of the late hours Frank and his wife kept at their home in Woodstock, and that he never worried about waking him up. He would be either calling or answering the phone all night, talking with people across the country who shared his political views (and, I'm certain, some who did not) when long distance rates were set by the FCC to ensure AT&T stockholders received healthy dividends.
Original Post:
Conservatives don't care about their own intellectual legacy. They'd rather listen to the rantings of Ann Coulter and call that conservatism, than consult their own intellectual tradition.
National Review doesn't archive much of their own past articles online at all, although this is probably done so that you can't look to see how many times National Review referred to "Negro backwardness" in its multiple articles defending Jim Crow.
Nevertheless, when National Review wasn't defending forced segregation or rooting for a nuclear holocaust, many of the magazine's writers had insightful and interesting things to say.
One of the most insightful writers was Frank Meyer. Meyer was terrible on foreign policy, but on domestic and constitutional matters, he was quite good. Meyer, for example, was (and remains), as far as I can tell, the only major figure among conservatives who denounced Abe Lincoln as destroyer of constitutional government and as the man who paved the way for FDR and the New Deal. On many other issues, Meyer was quite libertarian. He's never mentioned today by conservatives, of course, but Meyer was once one of the most important senior editors at National Review.
Since I'm teaching a class on conservatism and libertarianism in the spring I was excited to see that my vintage copy of Meyer's The Conservative Mainstream had arrived. This is a book from 1969, published by Arlington House, that is mostly a collection of Meyer's columns, and many of them are very good. Many of his more libertarian views are simply too extreme (in a good way) for the modern intellectual giants of the conservative movement, so I don't expect to see his now-obscure name resurrected at NR any time soon.
Meyer was an interesting fellow. (I wrote a bit about him here.) He homeschooled his children back in the 1960s, for example, which was definitely eccentric, to say the least. The State of New York wasn't much happy about that either.
Here's the hideous dust jacket. (Graphic design has come a long way since 1969.):
And who can totally dislike a guy who poses like this? (From the back of the dust jacket.)10:28 pm on November 30, 2012 Email Ryan McMaken

Whats the order the models go in? Which ones better, a GTS or a GT?
Printable View
Whats the order the models go in? Which ones better, a GTS or a GT?
Check out http://www.nvidia.co.uk/page/geforce8.html for the order (best to worst).
Thank you good sir
^ while the order is technicly correct the 8800GT is currently above the GTS until the new revision of GTS is out which i think is also a 512mb card
new revision is out in either this month or next month but i havent really been keeping up to speed with the latest info :p
Ok, the plot thickens :(
How does this chart work then? Which is better out of the GT, the GTS 320bit and the GTS 256bit with 512ram and higher clocks? :confused:
here you go:
* GeForce 8800 Ultra
* GeForce 8800 GTX
* GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB
* GeForce 8800 GT
* GeForce 8800 GTS 320/640MB
Thats how i understand the performance is, the differance between the 320 and 640 GTS is relevant only when using larger reolutions/games with larger or higher quality textures
I think that the throuput is what you need to be looking at... and the thickness of your wallet of course.
Right, more questions lol!
Which of the 8800s are PCI-e 2.0? And does it really matter if my mobo is only pci-e 1.1?
PCI-e 2.0 is double the bandwidth of 1.1
If my memory serves me correct
as far as im aware the 8800GT and GTS512mb are the only PCI2.0 cards on the market
i wouldnt be able to give an honest answer on wether 2.0 cards are backwards compatible with 1.1 only motherboards but id of thought they were, just means you wont get as much (not that its all used anyway) bandwidth from the PCI-E slot
just to be annoying:
I was looking at the 8800s yesterday after I ended up getting some new coolers for my 7800s and I came to the conclusion that it wasnt worth paying for anything more than an 8800 GT unless you had plenty of cash.
I will probably wait for the 9000 series or what ever comes out next and pick up two high end 8800s.
I also found it more than mildly irritating that I can get a card that is twice as powerful (GPU and ram speed) for half of the price that I paid for and equivalent series of card just over 18 months or so ago.
Thanks for the link Mr BIOS looks like I wont be waitng to long for that cheap upgrade :)
Now if I could just find some decent and cheap watercooling ....
You know most of the words in that sentence should never be put together!Quote:
Now if I could just find some decent and cheap watercooling ....
Lots of places do kits for around 150-250, There's a few kits for 90 - 100 but without wanting to sound snobbish water cooling over your electrical devices is not something you really want to skint out on!.
http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/ are good they do kits and there's a big water cooling forum section.
as my brother once found out :lol:Quote:

Effective this year, any player drafted in the 9th round or later is eligible to be kept for an additional season, and six players are kept year to year. My question is how can I assign keeper eligibility (with the "k" indicator) on yahoo to all the players drafted in the 9th round or later? It was my understanding that once the draft was over, I could go in and "tag" all the eligible players, but it seems I'm not able to do that. Any help would be appreciated.

Jody is looking for the Knickerbocker Puppy Love dog shown in the photo.
He had a built in red shirt with yellow words on his shirt… His shirt says Puppy Love … The material for his shirt was a bit shimmery, or silky like, maybe with red and yellow letters.
I have to find him. My mom passed away recently, and this is the only thing that brings back childhood memories. She always kissed him and me goodnight, and I slept with him like a small pillow.
Please Help Me, Please Please Please!!

Ah, finally a little time to gather my thoughts about Martinsville and then start writing about it.
First, of course I must begin by thanking Alton, Anne, and Mary for all their hard work. Things went very smoothly, and it was obvious they'd put a lot of thought and effort into the whole conference. BRAVO!!!
Barnie Day was an excellent M.C., even though he wasn't feeling tip-top. I really hope that his health improves some, because he is a very gracious and kind man, and I'd like to get to know him better. He also gave out his book, Notes from the sausage factory, which is an insider's look at the workings of the Virginia Congress. Barnie is a talented writer, so I'm very much looking forward to being richly entertained as well as educated!
My deep gratitude must also go out to the Conference's corporate sponsor, Smith River Community Bank. This generous bank put up some money to help defray the cost of the conference, no strings attatched. However, proper courtesy and gratitude require me to extend my personal thanks - I hope that someone who reads the Virginia blogs and sees this mention goes on in to the bank to see what they have to offer!
Steve Sisson, the Blue Dog, was also there and I got to chat with him more than I had at Sorenson. He's a riot! You've got to watch him closely, though, or he'll get in a little sly remark that you might miss ;-) He was also gracious enough to give me a copy of his book, Adventures in Warnerland, about his experiences in Virginia politics with Mark Warner, our previous governor. I'm sure it will be a great read, if it's got anything close to Steve's personal style.
*sigh* More for my pile of books-I-gotta-read. But these two, of course, will go to the top, and will be the next books I crack open. Make sure you bug me about them, 'cause I really am going to need to post my thoughts and impressions so these two excellent people will get some positive - I'm sure! - feedback.
(much more below the fold...)
Technorati tags: blogging, blog conference, Martinsville, McDonnell, Attorney General, Chris Saxon, Leslie Byrne, net neutrality, FOIA, Freedom of Information Act, podcasting, defamation
Three other "corporate" entities must also get mentioned: The Chatmoss Country Club, which hosted our dinner Friday night, spoiled us with good food and excellent service in a lovely setting. I'm keeping my eye on it for the lavish wedding reception when the Munchkin finds a good young man who adores her ;-) The Hampton Inn was also a comfortable host, with a friendly and professional staff, and very snuggly beds! Finally, Patrick Henry Community College provided the venue for Friday night's Pajama Party, as well as the conference room we used on Saturday. What a beautiful and well-appointed campus! Martinsville isn't so far from me; maybe I can see if they've got a once-a-week class that Danville Community College doesn't offer...
Saturday we started at about 9am with Barnie introducing Attorney General Bob McDonnell, who spoke about the various legalities that his office was working on, such as
- revising the laws on sexual preditors, particularly violent ones or those who targeted children
- increasing sentencing for drug dealers
- homeland security laws - they're drafting statutes, so that the system won't be driven by executive orders
- prisoner litigation reform, so that prisoners cannot bring frivolous lawsuits against the State, and so on.
- regulatory reform - streamlining various parts of the bureaucracy to make it more efficient and to make use of new technology
- and reforming the mental health system
Chris Saxman then came up and discussed blogging, mentioning that Republicans have been lagging behind the Democrats in effective use of the blogosphere. He explained a bit how the VACostCutting blog helps him get information and ideas that he might be able to implement to the benefit of Virginia. He spoke about the extremely fast news cycle, and his concern that many things don't stay around long enough for good discussion and examination, and that he found that blogs are an effective way to encourage this analysis and discussion.
Barnie then took the microphone again to introduce a panel with Jeff Shapiro of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Norman Leahy of One Man's Trash, Danny Radmacher of the Roanoke Times, and Jerry Fuhrman of From On High. The guys discussed the role of bloggers and journalists, whether bloggers are journalists, whether they even want to be journalists... It was a very good and fast-paced discussion, touching on ethics, editors, responsibilities, and so on. Of course, for me the question was a bit moot, since I don't claim to be a journalist or a reporter. I may sometimes do a "journalistic" piece or go do some actual "reporting," but that's not my focus - nor do I want it to be. Nevertheless, the conversation and questions were quite thought-provoking, and it was fun to see two of my blog-brothers "face off" with *gasp!* representatives of the [ominous drum roll, please] Main Stream Media [/drumroll]! ;-)
Steve Minor took the stage after the panel, and spoke about net neutrality. He's got his notes and references on his blog (1,2,3,4,5,6,7, and 8), which I need to go review. I hadn't been paying attention - too much - to this issue, and my knee-jerk opinion was "YES! We want net neutrality!" but I see that there are other factors with may play in to the possible problem. So, I'm going to modify my stance to a more cautious "Yes, we want net neutrality... mostly" until I understand more of the ins-and-outs.
Just before lunch, Brian Patton moderated a discussion about blogging software and blogging services. It seems from the sample in the room that WordPress is **the** up-and-coming standard for blog management software! Me, I think I'll stick with TypePad, since they've always been so good to me, and since I'm used to the platform. However, I can think of a few suggestions I'd like to make for future upgrades...
(oops, suddenly it occurs to me that I might have the timing mixed up a little... Oh, well...)
After lunch, Barnie introduced John Brownlee, the US Attorney for the Western District of Virginia. Mr. Brownlee's position is by Presidential appointment, and he was quite articulate and personable. He explained about how the federal attorney's office works and what type of cases they take, mainly within the parameters of enforcing federal law and defending the federal government in court. He said that he often uses blogs for tips, or to better understand the community. His office investigates corruption in government office, narcotics, firearms, interstate stalkers and child prongrphy (yeah, deliberate typo), among other crimes. He outlined the priorities of the Department of Justice:
- terrorism
- drugs and narcotics
- public corruption and corporate crime
- child predators
In particular, he quite forcefully noted that his office uses the Patriot Act every day, and that it is a critical tool to track down, apprehend, and prosecute terrorist-related crimes.
After Mr. Brownlee finished, Ben Tribbitt, of Not Larry Sabato, introduced Leslie Byrne. He outlined her record in the context of how it had affected him and inspired him to become politically active. His deep admiration was obvious (especially afterwards, when he questioned several people about their impressions of her), and I listened to her carefully.
She is a very good speaker, and she expressed her enthusiasm for blogs. While Lt Gov Bolling and AG McDonnell had offered the strong suggestion that bloggers "be fair," Ms. Byrne was a bit more free-wheeling. She said that bloggers could write whatever they wanted - but if you were too far out there, the market itself would marginalize you. That is something that is quite true - although I'm sure that even the most rabid nutcase has his own followers - because if you're not talking sense to someone, there's no reason for people to be interested in your blog.
I note that VB Dems Blogger Eileen Levandoski was more impressed with Ms. Byrne's statements than those of the LG, which is understandable, but I'm not certain that their points were so far apart. If you have a reputation for fairness and careful thought, no matter your political opinion, you are more likely to be respected and listened to. For me, I suppose I would describe the two statements as parallels, perhaps.
Nevertheless, Ms. Byrne was an engaging speaker, obviously committed and passionate in her views. I promised Ben that I'd do more research on her, because she did express several thoughts with which I agreed.
Ms. Byrne was followed by Forrest Landon, who spoke about the history and development of the Freedom of Information Act, with particular emphasis on FOIA's history and applications in Virginia. He had quite a bit of information about the Virginia Freedom of Information Advisory Council, its purpose and services. I'm going to have to review his handouts and the website, because by this time I was in dire need of caffeine, and didn't give Mr. Landon the careful attention his presentation deserved. It was definitely a subject near and dear to his heart - as it ought to be for all of us - and it is definitely a subject on which I need to educate myself.
The last panel was a discussion on libel, with Eric Helms Monday (the city attorney for Martinsville), Conaway Haskins, and Greg Letiecq. Now there was a fascinating discussion! Mr. Monday opened with an overview of the elements of defamation (which is what Virginia generally prosecutes - it appears to include slander and libel), and how to avoid it, as well as an example or two of some court cases. He was very careful to point out that defamation suits are on the rise and that bloggers are vulnerable.
Conaway spoke at length, and reminded bloggers to find their own voice: "Don't blog like me, [blog like you] (implied)!" He urged us to adopt a basic code of ethics, particularly if we wanted to be taken seriously. He made the point that the portion of the First Amendment pertaining to the freedom of the press is not the only part which applies to bloggers: the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of assembly all apply as well.
Greg then took over and expounded on his adversarial role in the 'sphere. He reminded all of us that 100-200 years ago, politics and political reporting was a very rough and tumble arena. He explained that, if no one goes out and hits the limits, then no one ever knows where the limits are. If no one exercises their rights, those rights tend to vanish. I was quite amused when he called himself the National Enquirer of the Blogosphere, but he really made me think when I heard his statement, "Truth is critical..." I think that I came up with my summary of the conference right there: " 'Truth is critical...' but style is individual."
Jim Hoeft (pronounced "heft" - which I'm so glad to know! I don't know why I didn't pick up on it when listening to his podcasts!), of Bearing Drift, concluded the conference with his informative tutorial on podcasting. He did an excellent job rounding up the basic equipment and software needed, as well as many tips and techniques for better sound and more professional results. He was also gracious and loaned me his mic for a quick interview with LG Bolling on Friday night, for which I'm very greatful!
Um, you should also ask him about exercises you can do to improve your diction. Really. ;-)
Wow. Busy, information-packed conference!
After Jim finished, we broke things down and headed out for a couple hours of relaxation before driving up to the Martinsville Resevoir and the Fireman's Cabin for a PARTY!!!! (But... that's for another post!)

I love this stuff! I find that I can only use it as an amergency sort of thing, like for when I get those big monster zits every now and then. It usually makes them go away in a couple days and without getting all gross, they just kind fo fade away and don't leave scars. It's my miracle potion. But if I use it all the time, every day, my face seems to get almost immune to it, whihc is weird.
Good stuff.
I bought this at Whole Food for around $6 . The roller didn't dispense the product well at first, but eventually that got better. I personally like the smell, though I could understand why some people might dislike it--it is a rather strong and herbal scent, from the essential oils. It contains alcohol, tea tree oil, witch hazel, chamomile,lavender, and a few other ingredients. It does shrink blemishes somewhat, but I don't think that this is the best product out there. However, this is a better product than the Burt's Bees herbal blemish stick.
I love to travel with this, although it leaked once. The smell doesn't bother me. I think it's an effective product, too.
I really love this! Ok, the smell could kill you but it works. I've dabbed this on zits and seen them totally shrink. It can burn for a little bit, and DO NOT recommend it at the least if you're skin is SENSITIVE AT ALL. But it toally works, and I love the roll-on applicator. You can use throughout the day because it is clear and dries fast.
it was alright...didn't get rid of my blemishes and for the price just wasn't worth it!
I used this a long time ago when i first saw it in the store. It did help to clear up the blemishes on my skin and helpped prevent more from occuring. It did sting my sensitive skin alittle, but not enough for me to complain.

Everything you could want is included.
Nothing so far.
Great Car For The Money. Handles Like A Go-cart And Gets Almost 30mpg. — Fully loaded and very tightly built. Rev-happy 2.4L engine really scoots the car along above 5000rpm. Honda reliability with the luxury of a TL. Glacier blue metallic is a beautiful color. Wouldn't own a new TSX because the body style is hideous.

Great shifting, very reliable
Not a lot of personality, not the most fun to drive
Tsx — Good car, doesn't have lots of personality, however. The shifting and performance are OK, had to learn to rev to get performance, especially coming from a Saab with more low-RPM torque. Fit and finish are unsurprisingly good, it is a Honda after all. Interested to see new version. Good gas mileage!

Great looking. Comfortable interior. Very reliable low maintenance.
Premium gas needed.
Great More Affordable Luxury Car. — I loved at the price I got it for used during the recession and how few problems I had with the car compared to other friends i know with their luxury cars. I am very happy with the purchase and will probably get another TSX in the future.
Primary Use: Commuting to work

fun to drive great speed and good gas milage,
wish it was bigger need room for baby car seat .
Great Luxury Car — Smooth ride on the road, fast with its v-tech. this car makes a statement on the road. I personally am selling the car only because my wife is pregnant and i need more room for baby car seat and stroller. otherwise i would keep this car forever.
Primary Use: Commuting to work

2006 Acura TSX 5-spd Review
The fact that it is a luxury Honda, easy maintenance & very customizable
It can not make a u-turn for the life if it. It needs so much space to turn around, not excellent i tight corners.
Slightly Modified Txs — Over all the car has been slightly modified, so the power is slightly better then a stock version, but because the car is lowered almost 2 inches, the ride is not too smooth. The look of the car is so clean & simple. I would say that most people that drive my car agree that it is relatively fun to drive.

Cost to maintain
It's Better Than My Celica. — Love the look navigation system. Hate the actual navigation system. AMAZED with the hands-free cell phone link. Heated seats are a plus. Maintenance is a biotch. Driving is nice . The tires the care deserves are expensive , but worth it. It's great to own, gas mileage is good.
Primary Use: Commuting to work

Good Use For Safety Driver — not a racing care so nothing excited, but it is very nice and reasonable price, very comfortable to sit in there, maintenance is not as expensive as Europe car, but still is a bit high. Gas is not that bad.
Primary Use: Family transportation

Looks great, runs great. great great great
Its a bit of a tease.
First Car Run Down — Great car to learn how to drive. Convenient features, beautiful all round. Ipod integration, power everything. All of which were in hands, not arms, reach. Being able to manually change the gears(I had an automatic) made for some nice exhaust notes and had a tight feel though out every aspect of the steering.The more spirited I drove though, the more I wanted. This car's full potential would only be seen on a track. While I shouldn't be scrutinizing a non-performance car on its performance, its what interested me while I drove. I don't recommend this car because I'm biased and feel there are much better daily drivers out there in the price range. :D
