Motion blur I notice tends to drag down the framerate a bit. Some people say it smooths it out, which may be true, but in benchmarks numerically I find the framerate is lower with it on. Also some of the later levels tend to run not as good as the earlier levels. For instance, the snow level tends to run slower (maybe from all the particles?). The VTOL level for me tended to run a little slow too and made it a bit hard to control the vehicle. Dropping shaders to medium helped that out though. And then finally the carrier level is the worst when you're out on deck fighting the first alien boss.

Obama, Mubarak seek fresh start to strained US-Egypt ties
The two met at the White House Tuesday. Obama sees Egypt as potentially a helpful player in moving the Middle East peace process forward.
Pablo Martinez Monsivais/ AP
If nothing else, President Obama's meeting Tuesday with his Egyptian counterpart, Hosni Mubarak, may symbolize the fact that the White House has hit the reset button on US-Egyptian relations.
Mr. Mubarak has stayed away from Washington in recent years, making little secret of his irritation with what Egyptians considered to be the Bush administration's pro-Israeli policies. Nor did Mubarak appreciate the way Bush officials publicly prodded Egypt on human rights.
But Mr. Obama chose Cairo as the place from which to make an address to the Muslim world earlier this summer. And he hasn't lectured Mubarak about the need for more democracy and justice in Egypitan society. At least, not yet.
"The Egyptians are very happy to have Obama in charge," says Denis Sullivan, director of the Middle East Center for Peace, Culture, and Development at Northeastern University in Boston. "This visit gets things back to a more normal relationship between two important players in the Middle East."

North Korea's heir apparent Kim Jong-un appears with father Kim Jong-il at military parade
(Read article summary)Despite backing of key Workers' Party officials, Kim Jong-un seems to be unpopular among North Korean citizens.
Kyodo News/AP
• A daily summary of global reports on security issues.
Kim Jong-un, the recently named heir apparent to the leadership of North Korea, appeared with his father, Kim Jong-il, at a massive military parade in North Korea's capital, Pyongyang, on Sunday.
BBC News reports that Kim Jong-un's appearance with his father at the parade marking the 65th anniversary of the ruling Workers' Party, occurred the day after a similar appearance at the Arirang Games in Pyongyang. The BBC's Michael Bristow says that the events marked the first time that both Kims appeared publicly before the world's media, which was allowed to cover both the games and the parade in a break from North Korea's usual secrecy. BBC News offers video of the parade on its website.

NBC Cancels 'Harry's Law' After 2 Seasons
NBC Cancels 'Harry's Law' After 2 Seasons
NBC has pulled the plug on one of its most watched series, David E. Kelley's Harry's Law starring Kathy Bates. The Oscar winner posted the news on Twitter. "Sad news today. Harry's Law will not be renewed for a 3rd season. We are all terribly sad. Many thanks for all your support." A rare TV series with a 60something as the lead, Harry's Law defied the odds and, while very soft in the younger demo, drew eyeballs. This season it has been NBC's second most-watched drama series with 8.8 million viewers, just a smidgen behind Smash, which had a Super Bowl-boosted launch and NBC's biggest series, The Voice, as a lead-in. It has been a bittersweet week for Kelley who just got a series order at TNT for his new medical drama Monday Mornings.

(Reuters) - A passenger from the stricken Triumph cruise ship sued Carnival Corp on Friday over "horrifying" conditions, including being forced to wade through human faeces from overflowing toilets after power was knocked out by a fire.
The lawsuit by Cassie Terry of Brazoria County, Texas, alleged Carnival failed to provide a seaworthy vessel and sanitary conditions, according to court documents.
Terry suffered physical and emotional harm, including anxiety, nervousness and the loss of the enjoyment of life, according to the complaint filed in federal court in Miami.

Jodi may be locked up, but that doesn't mean we've seen the last of 'her!' A new movie about the convicted killer is in the works — and it's surprisingly sexy.
After an exhausting trial, Jodi Arias was convicted of first-degree murder of her boyfriend Travis Alexander on May 8. The media attention surrounding Jodi has led to numerous impressions of the murderess, including Saturday Night Live parodies and a Lifetime movie. Now, a new TV movie is reportedly in the developing stages — and Jodi's character is described as "highly sexual!"
The actress cast to play Jodi "needs to be extremely comfortable being depicted in a very kinky, highly sexual role," HollywoodLife.com has learned. "She's going to be having all kinds of sex on screen."
The film also calls for the actors to be comfortable "depicting physically violent scenes."
While we already know what happens in this deadly Jodi saga, hopefully this movie uncovers some new facets of the story.
From the casting requirements for Jodi, it looks like viewers will get a new glimpse into Jodi and Travis' intense and polarizing relationship, which was dysfunctional — to say the least.
HollywoodLifers, will YOU watch a new Jodi Arias movie? Let us know what you think!

Too bad I'm not in casting because these would be my picks for actresses to play Jodi Arias: Irene Bedard, Summer Glau, Marisol Nichols, Dilshad Vasaria, Shannyn Sossamon, Lindsay Price, Kristin Kreuk, and even go as far as casting Shiri Appleby and Jessica Alba. All mixed women, just like Jodi. What do you guys think of my picks, and what are some of yours?

I agree, Kacie, Aubrey Plaza looks absolutely NOTHING like Jodi! If I were the one casting an actress, I'd say a closer match would be Irene Bedard. Not that they look like bopsy twins, but they do have that long straight hair and same eyes (American Indian-looking). Irene is much prettier and older than Jodi, though, but still a good match.
Posted at 10:08 AM on July 26, 2013
Are they kidding? Another movie based on a proven liar's word? What about the the victim? Hasnt Travis Alexander's name, reputation,and his family been through enough? How about someone finally making a movie at least showing everything from the victims' side, being stalked by the insane Jodi, Jodi getting into his house through the doggie door, hiding behing his x-mas tree, all of her snooping into his texts and computer, all her crazy antics. She's crazy and delusional, Not sexual. Her claims of this wild sex life Only happened with Travis?Convenient,he's dead,Funny,it didnt happen with any of the men in her past who are still alive to talk about it! Its all a fantasy in her head, it may have been spoken thru phone sex, email,or texts,but I doubt it was ever a physical reality.No one can take stock in a single word out of Jodi Arias! If her lips are moving,she's lying. Time to STOP giving her anymore FAME, she is a convicted MURDERER. She didnt just kill Travis, she slaughtered him, she killed him 3 times o
Sarah is too caucasian-looking, aside from the fact she does have the long hair. If you want authenticity, then it would have to be someone that is ethnic (Jodi is half Spanish) and has similar eyes to Jodi, like Irene Bedard (she's American Indian and white) and even Summer Glau could play Jodi well.
Posted at 8:29 PM on July 25, 2013
Really another one!
What I don't understand is some people seem to take HER word for what the relationship was like, was it really that sexual?? She is a proven liar, and yet some like to believe her and take her word for what their sex life was like….or their relationship period. Even through things have been proven that the relationship was not like she says it was.
Thank goodness alot of people don't believe their relationship was just about sex, and to the extent that she says it was, or the way she says the relationship was. Some of us are not naive enough to take the word of killer, and known/proven liar.
Looks like if this movie goes threw, it will be under 'fiction'…
How can a movie be based on lies!!!!!
How can a movie be based on a convicted killers word!!!!
I guess the mighty dollar speaks louder than the the truth….

Yellen Poised to Push Back at Inflation Hawks at Jackson Hole
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- As of Thursday, the prevailing view among the top U.S. policymakers is the U.S. economy is not quite ready yet for the beginning of interest rate hikes. It's better to be safe and conservative than sorry.
Minutes released from the Federal Reserve's July 29-30 meeting were widely perceived by investors to be more hawkish than before, amplified in no small part by the increasing transparency of the inner workings of the world's most powerful central bank. However, a closer inspection of the text indicates that in many respects, the "doves" are still very much in control of the dialog and Fed Chair Janet Yellen still very much has the majority of the voting members on her side. Changes in the voting composition of the Federal Open Market Committee in 2015 are expected to result in a group even more focused on labor market slack.
Read More: Housing Is Heating Up: Does This Change Fed's Thinking?
All these dynamics are expected to be aptly reflected in Yellen's speech at 10 a.m. EDT Friday at the yearly symposium of global monetary policymakers in Jackson Hole, Wyo.
While the minutes of the Fed underscored the debate over policy normalization, in other ways the minutes appear no more hawkish than they had been for the past several meetings. They reiterated that the Fed as a whole continues to be very much data dependent. The upshot is the same as its been in prior meetings: If the economy picks up momentum and continues to move toward the central bank's objectives, then the Fed will likely raise rates sooner. And on the other hand, if the Fed continues to see a wide gap between where the labor market currently stands and the need for the labor market to ramp up its use of resources, then the Fed will remain with its accommodative stance for longer than expected. However the minutes also showed a strong pushback at the hawks, particularly Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard and Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher, with the statement about the "significant underutilization of labor resources" being a key point of discussion. "Certainly the hawks of the market are going to point out the more hawkish comments and put more credence on the hawkish officials' comments -- so that's Plosser, that's Bullard, that's Fisher," said Lindsey Piegza, the chief economist with Sterne Agee. "On the other hand we have to remember that it's the chair -- Chair Yellen whose focus is on the labor market. The statement was added in to say 'look, the headline data is improving, but guys, we need to take this in context'." While Ben Bernanke had used Jackson Hole as a place to announce policy initiatives or changes to monetary policy, Piegza expects Yellen will use the opportunity and really every public forum opportunity to continue to justify the Fed's continued accommodative stance. Jackson Hole will give her just another occasion to reinforce why the Fed cannot raise rates in the face of a still very stagnant and fragile labor market. "I think she's been pretty clear that inflation, while they are keeping an eye on it, is taking a back seat right now to labor market conditions," said Piegza. The economist expects Yellen will comment on Friday on the recent moderation in headline inflation pressures, as seen in the consumer price index this week and the producer price index last week -- both of which reversed away from the Fed's 2% target. "I think she will tie the inflation conversation back to the lack of wage pressure . . . that wage-price spiral -- we just haven't seen that cyclical come to fruition yet." With the changing composition of the FOMC voting committee more likely to lean even more heavily toward the employment focus in 2015, Kristina Hooper, U.S. Investment Strategist at Allianz Global Investors says the accommodative thinking is likely to prevail. "I don't think the FOMC has made up its mind at all about when it will raise rates. It really is looking at this mosaic of data -- and again this [the 2014 membership] is not necessarily the membership that's going to decide anyway," she said. While dove Narayana Kocherlakota, president of the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank, is expected to be rotating out of the FOMC in 2015, dovish figures Charles Evans and John Williams are anticipated to be coming in. In the hawkish camp, Fed Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer is expected to remain, but Richard Fisher is on his way to be rotated out. Outgoing hawk Plosser and centrist Loretta Mester, president of the Cleveland Federal Reserve, would be replaced by Dennis Lockhart, the Atlanta Fed president and a dove.

A thrilling re-creation of a crucial campaign in the Mexican-American War and a pivotal moment in America's history. In June 1846, General Stephen Watts Kearny rode out of Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, with a thousand cavalrymen of the First United States Dragoons. When his fantastic expedition ended a year and two-thousand miles later, the nation had doubled in size and now stretched from Atlantic to Pacific, fulfilling what many saw as its unique destiny. Kearny's March has all the stuff of great narrative history: hardships on the trail, wild Indians, famous mountain men, international conflict and political intrigue, personal dramas, gold rushes and land-grabs. Winston Groom plumbs the wealth of primary documentation--journals and letters, as well as military records--and gives us a sleek, exciting account that captures our imaginations and enlivens our understanding of the sometimes dirty business of country-making.
Winston Groom is the author of fifteen previous books, including Vicksburg, 1863, Patriotic Fire, Shrouds of Glory, Forrest Gump, and Conversations with the Enemy (with Duncan Spencer), which was a Pulitzer Prize finalist. He lives with his wife and daughter in Alabama.

So as I mentioned in another thread where I asked about pricing and such on the P238, my fiancee took her CWP course yesterday from a private instructor with her parents.
She said overall it went really well and she was glad she got to ask so many questions and she seems to have learned a lot. The other great thing that came out of it is that she listened to him when he advised she try revolvers for ease of use and reliability (gee I seem to remember saying the same thing...) and she's going to give them a try at the range today.
Well, we were discussing the class and what she learned last night and there were quite a few things I didn't necessarily agree with and wanted to get everyone's thoughts on it... since I don't really know.
He advised that a woman carry nothing other than a .357 revolver, .40 S&W, or .45 ACP for defensive carry. He said that things in the .380/.38 Special category lack the necessary power to make it an effective defensive weapon.
Personally, I disagree. My understanding is that modern defense ammo has made even the "smaller" calibers effective for defense. Also, considering her issues handling my P239 in .40 S&W there are comfort concerns with the larger caliber.
I don't want to start a caliber war, so please don't. What I want to know are thoughts on what caliber we should be looking for. She handled a .380 at the range very well and like the way that it shot... but now she's terrified by what the instructor told her because she doesn't think it'll be able to stop anyone.

About time, about time. We got screwed in the States with cable. The price never came down. Monthly we pay the equivalent to a mortgage payment in a lot of countries. 500 channels, who cares? How much time is there in a day? Bring it on the Net. Not a moment too soon.
WITH Wednesday's announcement by Verizon Wireless—the largest of America's four big mobile phone companies—that it will switch on its new 4G (fourth generation) wireless network in 38 metropolitan areas and at 60 domestic airports on December 5th, one out of two wireless phone subscribers in the country will then be able to access the web at speeds unheard of locally but taken for granted elsewhere in the world. The generational change has arrived just in time.
Unfortunately, for the moment, subscribers will not actually be able to speak over the new mobile-phone network. The only way they will be able to use Verizon's 4G system—hyped as being "up to ten times faster" than the carrier's existing 3G network—will be via a wireless modem plugged into a laptop. Verizon does not expect to have 4G phones available until next summer at the earliest.
And they are not going to be all that cheap to use, though Verizon's smartphone users have shown themselves to be more or less impervious to the cost of data plans. The cheapest will add a further $50 a month to the subscription fee for the luxury of downloading or uploading just five gigabytes (little more than the content of a single DVD), with an additional $10 for every gigabyte after that. By all accounts, the days of flat-rate monthly plans are gone for good.
Verizon is not the first mobile-phone company in America to offer 4G services—those capable of download speeds in excess of five megabits per second compared with 3G's real-world maximum of around 1.4 Mbps. Of the country's big four wireless carriers, Sprint Nextel's 4G network was launched two years ago and T-Mobile's earlier this year. AT&T will start rolling out its own 4G service sometime next year.
So far, three different technologies have emerged to meet the demand. Sprint and its partner, Clearwire, have adopted an internet protocol known as WiMAX—a sort of faster and longer-range version of WiFi. Meanwhile, T-Mobile has been using HSPA+, an enhanced version of a 3G technology called High Speed Packet Access. By contrast, Verizon has adopted LTE (Long Term Evolution), a protocol that has been embraced by telecom companies around the world. AT&T will likewise adopt LTE when it upgrades its existing HSPA+ network.
Technically speaking, none of these three cellular technologies is actually fourth generation in the International Telecommunications Union's book. Because they do not meet the ruling body's requirement for peak data rates of up to one gigabit per second, all three qualify at best as 3.9G networks. But with software upgrades and better antenna design, both WiMAX and LTE should become true 4G networks in due course. By contrast, HSPA+ will probably be pensioned off.
As its name implies, LTE is actually an evolution of 3G technology, especially HSPA+, albeit with full internet-like features. It also uses similar techniques to WiMAX for maintaining signal strength and resisting interference. But there the similarities end. With peak speeds of one gigabit per second theoretically possible, the next iteration (LTE-Advanced) should make downloads of 100 megabits a second a routine matter. Some doubt whether WiMAX will be able to stay the course. Indeed, Sprint has dropped hints that it may switch horses. Converting from WiMAX to LTE, it points out, involves merely upgrading the transmitter software in its cell towers.
But why this endless pursuit of raw speed? The short answer is because it boosts throughput, especially for customers trying to play games on their phones, send video messages or download music. Despite having one of the fastest 3G wireless networks around, AT&T has earned the opprobrium of its customers for continually dropping calls or failing to let them get online. AT&T's woes stem from the unprecedented growth in multimedia downloads by iPhone users in particular. The carrier has exclusive rights to supply the iPhone in America, though that is due to change.
More than any other handheld device, Apple's svelte and seductive phone—with its powerful software and intuitive interface—encourages users to go online and stay online. As a group, iPhone customers use on average up to ten times the bandwidth of mobile subscribers.
That may be good for business, but it eats capacity faster than anything else—and certainly faster than AT&T has been able to add transmitter towers to its existing 3G network. Because of traffic congestion, AT&T's long-suffering customers have found themselves being demoted at times to the carrier's fall-back network, where they stumble around cyberspace at 2G speeds. No wonder Verizon has been keen to get its 4G network in place before concluding any agreement with Apple to start selling the iPhone as well—not to mention the iPad and the hordes of wireless tablets expected early next year.
Despite the claimed ten-fold improvement in speed, people using Verizon's new LTE service are unlikely to notice the higher data rate as much as the reduced waiting time for websites to pop up. In many ways, the "latency" of a network—the time taken to send a single packet of data to a destination and get it back—gives a greater impression of speed than its sheer downloading or uploading capability (see "World Wide Wait", February 12th, 2010). Even the present version of LTE can make a typical round-trip in less than ten milliseconds—five times quicker than the best 3G wireless network, and as good as a wired Ethernet connection to the web. With LTE-Advanced, the latency should be down to less than five milliseconds, making it feel snappier still.
All of that, and more, is going to be needed when consumers start to "cut the television cable" in earnest. The cable TV companies are experiencing their biggest decline in revenue in 30 years as tech-savvy viewers start to ditch the bundles of television channels they have had to sign up for (the bulk of which they rarely watch but still have to pay for) in favour of buying, or getting for free, from YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, iTunes and other websites just the shows and films they actually want to watch.
In principle, there was nothing wrong with the "TV Everywhere" concept championed a while ago by Comcast and Time Warner, the two largest cable TV companies in America. The cable firms thought it would be just dandy if people could watch their digital entertainment, delivered by broadband, on any device they wished, wherever they wanted—provided, of course, they kept their cable service at home. The only mistake they made was to expect customers to do the latter.
In ditching their cable contracts, consumers have started streaming shows and movies from the web not just to their television sets in the living room, but also to their smartphones and wireless-connected laptops, iPads and other mobile gadgets. As they do so, the demand for mobile bandwidth is growing faster than anyone ever imagined. Streaming a single video from the web to a mobile device takes as much bandwidth as 100 phone calls. Even with a 4G service like LTE, it will be touch and go whether the wireless carriers will be able to keep up.

This is an interesting and indirect confirmation of another thing I had heard concerning the elections in Iran where President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was elected to power. According to Iranian friends living in Iran, the majority of Iranian people were completely against Ahmadinejad until George W. Bush and his administration put their weight behind the opposition candidate. We all know the results now, but few people in the USA ever talked about why this sudden turn about in electoral opinion.
As a cynic I ask myself, was this preplanned so as to have a useful blacksheep as target in the mideast?

Paper Jam - TWC
My Uncle Clarence could not stand the taste of iced tea, but around our house, it was a staple. When I was younger, I'd be the one tasked with fixing up a pot of tea... boil the water, add tea bags and let it steep, a big scoop of sugar and finish topping off the gallon jar with water. Later, after my Dad died, I'd just brew the tea and add water - no point in wasting time on the sugar... too much trouble.
But Clarence didn't like tea in any way, shape, or form. He'd gag if he sipped it. Once when he was feeling sick, and took some Nyquil (another item which made him gag), I quickly handed him a largish glass and said, "Here, have some Pepsi to wash it down...". He gratefully took a big gulp of it, and alas... it was iced tea, instead. I think it ended up all over the kitchen as he spit it out rather quickly.
As I sit here, thinking on those days, I can remember a time when I would try new things... Weird things. Sometimes, it would be a contest between myself and my brother, Ted, and Clarence, to see who could out-gross the other. It went from the fairly painless, like ketchup and mustard sandwiches, or bologna with ketchup and mustard, to more sickening mixes, such as iced tea and milk... (That's one of my few concoctions that actually got wasted... I usually ate/drank what I came up with). Mom didn't like for us to waste things, so for the most part, whatever we fixed, we ate, or drank.
As far as sandwiches go, I have made peanut butter and bologna, or peanut butter and jelly with bologna, or many other variations... I don't suggest that everyone try these things - I was a teenager, as was my brother, and our uncle was a teenager at heart, and we'd just push the edge as much as possible to try and out-do each other.
Jump ahead a few years, when I moved to Pennsylvania, we stopped at an Amish roadside market one day, and bought some traffic jam. Yummmm... Unlike the disgusting sandwich ingredients of old, this traffic jam was made up of various berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, etc), and was actually VERY tasty. Another Amish-made item was the marshmallow-peanut butter. Mix that with traffic jam and you've got a tasty sandwich indeed.
But one thing I've never, ever tried... is Paper Jam.

Antimicrobial properties of Star anise (Illicium verum Hook f)
Phytotherapy Research (2002)
- DOI: 10.1002/ptr.989
- PubMed: 11807977
Available from Phytotherapy Research
Star anise (Illicium verum Hook f) has been shown to possess potent antimicrobial properties. Chemical studies indicate that a major portion of this antimicrobial property is due to anethole present in the dried fruit. Studies with isolated anethole (compared with standard anethole) indicated that it is effective against bacteria, yeast and fungal strains.

The challenge: Austin aims to make all of its sidewalks ADA accessible. Collecting and analyzing data on these sidewalks proved to be time-consuming and tedious.
The solution: The city developed a Pedestrian Master Plan to address compliance issues. The plan uses a custom GIS toolset called the Pedestrian Infrastructure Management System that scores sidewalks on ADA compliance, giving the city an efficient way to rank construction or maintenance needs.
The cost: The two-year effort will cost $950,000.
Austin's sidewalks are winning awards. The awards, however, aren't pouring in for their decorative flair or for their concrete mix design, but rather for their compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility standards.
In 2005, Austin was the largest city to receive an award in the Accessible America competition by the National Organization on Disabilities. "In keeping with the city's continuing efforts to provide a barrier-free community, this state-of-the-art master plan development and its tools further enhance our ability to identify and provide these resources to our community," says Sondra Creighton, P.E., Austin, Texas, director of public works.
Many cities struggle with identifying and managing pedestrian infrastructure for maintenance and construction. Public works departments now are facing increased pressure to determine cost-effective and efficient methods for compliance with ADA accessibility standards. Failure to properly manage ADA compliance has proven costly to many cities throughout the country due to an increasing amount of litigation.
The Austin public works department decided to take a progressive approach to managing and maintaining its pedestrian infrastructure while providing a mechanism for managing ADA compliance. The city teamed with local consulting firm Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam Inc. (LAN) to develop a phased implementation of a Pedestrian Master Plan. It provides a better methodology for managing existing infrastructure, evaluating ADA compliance, and identifying new project locations while wrapping all these goals into a single prioritization process for identifying high-priority construction and maintenance locations.
The two-phase process, with each phase lasting 12 months, will cost the city $950,000. The project is being funded by bond money allocated for street and sidewalk projects.
Like most cities, Austin's approach to prioritizing project locations had been based on input from neighborhood associations, special interest groups, and business owners, along with anecdotal information from maintenance crews. While somewhat effective, the public works staff recognized that the city would be better served by developing a prioritization process based on objective data about each location's proximity to pedestrian attractors and risks. Austin also needed a process that took into account both the existing condition of the infrastructure and its compliance with ADA accessibility standards.
Working with city staff, the consultant determined that three criteria provide the best approach for prioritizing locations—proximity analysis to pedestrian attractors and risks, existing maintenance condition, and ADA compliance of the existing infrastructure. Once a location is assessed on these three criteria, a cumulative score for that location is determined on weighted values assigned to each factor.
