CNN — New HIV infections have dropped more than 50 percent in 25 low- and middle-income countries, according to a new World AIDS Day report by the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS).
There were 700,000 fewer new infections last year than in 2001, according to the report "Results." More than half of the countries reporting fewer infections are in sub-Saharan Africa, the region with some of the highest number of HIV cases in the world. Infection rates have dropped dramatically in Malawi (73 percent), Botswana (71 percent), Namibia (68 percent) Zambia (58 percent), Zimbabwe (50 percent) and by 41 percent in Swaziland and South Africa, for example.
Along with these reductions, AIDS experts say the number of people getting antiretroviral treatment increased 63 percent in the past two years. Sub-Saharan Africa treated a record 2.3 million people, and the number of people treated in China jumped 50 percent last year.
AIDS-related deaths dropped more than 25 percent over the last six years, and countries with some of the highest HIV rates are seeing the biggest drops in mortality. There are also fewer, tuberculosis-related AIDS deaths are, according to the report, dropping 13 percent in the last two years.
"The pace of progress is quickening - what used to take a decade is now being achieved in 24 months," said Michel Sidibe, executive director of UNAIDS. "We are scaling up faster and smarter than ever before. It is the proof that with political will and follow-through, we can reach our shared goals by 2015."
Those goals, called the Millennium Development Goals, were established in 2000 when 189 countries pledged to accomplish eight goals -- including eradicating extreme poverty and hunger and reducing child mortality - by 2015. Combating HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases was another one of those goals.
The report found more than 81 countries have increased their own domestic investments in treatment and prevention by 50 percent over the last 10 years. Currently nearly half of all international HIV aid comes from the United States; along with the Global Fund for AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, the United States provides much of the treatment dollars.
In the last two years, half of the new infection rate reductions have been in children, said Dr. Bernhard Schwartlander, director for evidence, strategy and results at UNAIDS. In fact, in the last 24 months, the number of children newly infected with HIV fell 40 percent in six countries.
"It is becoming evident that achieving zero new HIV infections in children is possible," said Sidibe. "I am excited that far fewer babies are being born with HIV. We are moving from despair to hope."
Last year, more than 34 million people around the world were living with HIV. A total of 2.5 million people became newly infected, and 1.7 million people died. According to the report, men who have sex with men, intravenous drug users and sex workers are still disproportionately affected by the disease.
Even though the news is encouraging, Sidibe says work remains to be done.
"UNAIDS will focus on supporting countries to accelerate access to HIV testing and treatment. Now that we know that rapid and massive scale-up is possible, we need to do more to reach key populations with crucial HIV services," said Sidibe.
World AIDS Day is December 1.

Optional Accessories:
46oz Popcorn Buckets - 100
Mega Size 8oz Portion Pack - 40 Per Case
This Popcorn Machine and Cart is designed to compliment home interiors and constructed to stand up in the most demanding commercial environment.
Incorporates all Theater Pop line features and functions.
Commercial grade stainless steel parts used throughout for a great look, enhanced corrosion resistance, and long lasting durability.
Simple, elegant labeling and lighted red switches provides distinctive home styling while retaining commercial functionality.
Highlight the popper with a specially matched cart or stand. The high-performance textured powder coat finish and stainless steel signature-style plate adds a formality to this popper that completes the look.
Comes with Paragon's exclusive lifetime warranty on home usage (4 oz machine only) and 3-year warranty on all other machines for all uses.
High-output, Hard-coat Anodized Aluminum Kettle.
All of our poppers feature this kettle for optimum performance and easy cleaning. We only use aluminum because it has the highest heat transfer rate of any approved cooking material. Then we hard-coat anodize the kettles to create a non-stick surface that resists carbon build-up and is a snap to clean - just wipe with a damp cloth.
Side-hinged Kettle.
Our kettles are simple to operate and maintain. This design facilitates routine cleaning because you can reach all parts of the kettle. Just wipe it with a damp cloth regularly and you'll eliminate most of the baked-on carbon that is so common in oil-based cooking appliances. With less carbon build-up, your machine will heat faster and work more efficiently. Ordinary poppers with center pivot kettles build up baked-on carbon quickly and require time-consuming, difficult disassembly for cleaning.
Built-in Warming Deck.
Professional series poppers incorporate a 50-watt heating element underneath the bottom tray. Since heat rises, bottom heating is better than heat lamps that only warm the top layer of popcorn. Our bottom-heating element keeps all the popcorn in the cabinet warm at the ideal serving temperature. Depending on the humidity level, popcorn can stay fresh all day if kept at the right temperature.
Old Maid Drawer.
A stainless steel drawer built into the base of the popper collects the unpopped kernels, or "old maids". The small holes in the tray allow the old maids to fall through, while keeping the fully popped corn in the serving cabinet. It's simple to remove the drawer for emptying and cleaning.
Presentation Lamp.
A 50-watt R20 lamp bulb lights the cabinet interior and highlights the popped corn. The light also provides extra safety and convenience because the operator can see the kettle clearly for loading and unloading.
Stainless Steel Construction
Components with a powder coat finish on our other lines of equipment have been upgraded with commercial grade stainless steel (finish style - F4). The result is improved durability to scratching and wear, and increased corrosion resistance. This line is perfect for applications where the machine is subjected to constant cleaning or a salt-water environment (coastlines). The life of these machines are extended dramatically as the risk of moisture penetration in powder-coated finishes is eliminated.
Special Design Features.
Our popcorn labels have been moved to the glass on these poppers and designed with black/silver colors to not detract from the classic appearance of stainless. A touch of color and class is present in the lighted, red switches that feature simple, non-obtrusive labeling. The matching carts and stands feature a special textured black powder-coat finish that contrasts and compliments the machine perfectly. Limiting cart/stand labeling to a simple stainless steel signature style plate carries the classic design throughout the entire unit. This design results in a classic, elegant look that will enhance the most up-scale room, while maintaining the same high-end commercial quality in home use or commercial concession environments.

Looking For a Book About Earth Underwater
I'm looking for a book about Earth (or another planet) if it was flooded with water and people lived on the surface in boats and atolls (meaning they're not mermaids). Something like Waterworld, but... not as sucky. It can be either fiction or non-fiction, but preferably fiction. If there are any comic books, movies, or online articles describing a life like this, that's fine too.

I suggest *Door Into Ocean* by Joan Slonczewski. An alien world where earth-descended people live on natural rafts, in harmony with their ecology until they are invaded ... So far from sucky that it doesn't even exist on the same planet as "Waterworld"! A mind-stretching read!

Jack Vance's Trullion: Alastor 2262, found in the Alastor TPB, takes place on a planet whose surface is mostly covered with water. The locals live on islands, and much of the action in the book centers around a murder mystery and the game of huissade that Vance invented.
Are you more interested in abovewater or underwater life? Arthur C. Clarke's the Deep Range takes place underwater, and DC's Aquaman and Marvel's Sub-Mariner comics feature heroes who live underwater.
There's also Serpent Mage by Weis and Hickman, if you don't mind fantasy. It takes place in a realm almost entirely composed of water, and although it's part of a 7 part series it's basically a standalone.

I always see this abbreviation used but never explained - what is a "CRTC"?
Phoronix: X Server 1.9 Window Closing After RandR 1.4 Pull
There's good news for the Ubuntu camp and others releasing in the September-October time-frame: development work on X.Org Server 1.9 is still going as planned for an August release and its merge window is about to be closed. In the past it's been tough for the X.Org project to release server updates in a timely manner that's on schedule, but continuing from their X.Org Server 1.8 success, 1.9 is shaping up nicely too...
I always see this abbreviation used but never explained - what is a "CRTC"?
A CRTC, or Cathode Ray Tube Controller, generates the video timings and reads video data from a RAM attached to the CRTC, to output it via an external character generator ROM, (for text modes) or directly, (for high resolution graphics modes) to the video output shift register. Because the actual capabilities of the video generator depend to a large degree on the external logic, video generator based on a CRTC chip can have a wide range of capabilities. From very simple (text mode only) systems to very high resolution systems supporting a wide range of colours. Sprites however are normally not supported by these systems.
In other words:
A crtc is basically a display controller (crt controller). What it does is that it is linked to the physical ports, like DVI...
It is what takes a certain sement of the frambuffer and sends it to your screen.
It can do all sorts of fancy stuff. For example if you have a dual screen setup, a crtc copies the segment of the frambuffer for your left screen and send that to the monitor 1, and another crtc takes the right image and sends it to screen 2 connected to it...
Right. A CRTC just knows how to turn an area of memory into a stream of digital data with the appropriate sync and blanking signals.
Note that most of our GPUs before Evergreen have 2 CRTCs (some of the really old ones only had 1), while the Evergreen parts have either 4 or 6 depending on model.
Most users only use a couple of displays at a time, but a typical graphics card has 3 or 4 outputs and a docked laptop might have 5 or 6. In principle you could get by with 2 CRTCs and a complex switching arrangement between CRTCs, encoders and outputs, but you still end up with sitations where you can't run output X and output Y independently because they share "something" -- so dedicating a CRTC to each potential output provides more flexibility for the user and lets you eliminate a lot of switching logic. The switching logic to map CRTCs onto encoders & outputs was getting wider, faster and more complex every year, to the point that having more CRTCs was a better solution than the switching logic required to let 2 CRTCs cover all the possible output scenarios.
It also turned out to be mighty fine for multiscreen gaming, but that wasn't the only reason

How to Select
LED technology is the most efficient alternative to conventional lighting. LED fixtures can help you save up to 90% of energy, compared to fluorescent or incandescent lamps. With various sizes and designs of LED fixtures they become great for installing in under cabinet locations. This guide will help you select the perfect option to fit your needs.
The first thing to consider when selecting LED under cabinet lighting is the type of the fixture. Among all of the options that exist today, push lights are the most affordable. Despite their low price, they offer the same lighting features as other types do. If you are looking for more complex and stylish fixtures, there are plenty of options to select from.
The next factor that requires your attention is the amount of light that you need your future under cabinet lighting to offer. Since kitchen counters and other common locations where such lights are usually installed don't require much light, LED lamps become the best option for them.
The design of LED under cabinet lighting is something to consider as well. You can select between LED pucks or linear bulbs. Both styles provide the amount of light that is sufficient to illuminate the under cabinet surface. There's also an option to install LED ropes that can provide great lighting features for tightest under cabinet locations.
Color temperature of the light or as it is also called, ССЕ rating, is other factor to consider before selecting a LED lighting fixture for your kitchen. By choosing the lamps with various color of light you are able to create a lighting ambiance of your dreams. The LED lights can provide warm white color as well as the cool white options. To know the color of your future LED lighting fixture, look for the Kelvin ratio in its description. The higher such ratio is the cooler is the white color that the fixture provides. If you have wooden furniture in the kitchen, LED lighting with warmer color would be the perfect choice for it. For glass or steel shelves and cabinets select the fixtures with cooler light color.
Finally, the next thing to do when selecting LED under cabinet lights is determining your budget. In order to save money you need to know how much energy every fixture will use. Calculating the operating cost of your lighting devices is pretty easy, since such information is usually indicated on their package or in the item's description. It is not a secret however, that LED technology is way more efficient and money-saving than any other lighting option.

Locals shine at Frozen Green Wave Invitational
Saturday, April 27, 2013
DOVER — Too injured to throw the javelin, his main event, Somersworth High School's Drew Francoeur focused his energy on two other events and won them both.
Somersworth sophomore Alexis Gray was a double winner, finishing first in the 100-meter hurdles (18.05 seconds) and the 300-meter hurdles (51.88).
"She's going to have a breakout year," Hodsdon said. "She's a great athlete too. The 300 hurdles, that was her second time running it this year. It was a second and a half PR for her, so we'll take that."
Dover's Christian Seaver continued his strong start to the season with a pair of wins, taking home the 100-meter dash in 11.93 seconds and the 200 in 24.36. "He's doing pretty well," Dover coach Nick Piatti said. "We still have to work on the technical stuff. He's working on raw speed right now. But if we can figure that out and get his time down by a couple of tenths of a second, he could make it to the state meet."
In the team standings, the Dover boys were third with 103 points, followed by Somersworth with 55. Portsmouth Christian came in seventh with 25 points.
"She's focused on winning the state championship this year," Hodsdon said about Gagnon. "She's working hard and working on some technical stuff, but today we'll take 119-11. She's still putting everything together. She had a couple of 130-foot throws in practice last week, so she's ready to step in there."

Moules à la Marinière Recipe
I came all the way to south of France to eat these–Moules à la Marinière, or French/Belgium-style mussels cooked with white wine, onions, and parsley. Not that I can't get mussels in California, but eating these mussels right here in a Mediterranean coastal town just adds to the authenticity and–most importantly–the flavors.
While I am here, feed me more pots or pails or buckets of Moules à la Marinière, please…
Note: Pictured above is 1 kg of pure mussel goodness…I think I might not want to go back.

Tom Rogers, CEO of TiVo, had placed multiple strategic bets on his company. In September 2007, that strategy was due for a major test. TiVo was a maker of digital video recorder (DVR) products and a distributor of DVR technology. Rogers believed that macro-trends in the home entertainment industry--the convergence of standard television with the delivery of video content via broadband Internet, and the related crisis faced by companies whose business models relied on TV advertising--played to TiVo's unique strengths. Leadership in DVR technology and a TV-centric user interface arguably positioned TiVo to become something more than a consumer electronics company. That was Roger's big bet. Implementing it required making six other bets: continuing to sell stand-alone DVRs in the retail market, despite rapidly eroding market share; distributing TiVo service in partnership with cable and satellite TV providers (which also functioned as TiVo's chief competitors in the DVR market); developing a platform for DVR-based advertising; entering the audience research business; leveraging TiVo's intellectual property both through litigation and in the marketplace; and expanding into non-U.S. markets. In late 2007, a pivotal new product, a major distribution deal with cable operator Comcast, and a key intellectual property lawsuit were all reaching points of critical impact.

Thursday, March 06, 2014 For Le Moyne Senior, Working at ESPN is Living a Dream Thomas Stamas '14 never imagined that he would land his dream job at age 22 – but he has. A communication major, Stamas is spending the spring 2014 semester in Bristol, Conn., where he is working as an intern for ESPN. It has been Stamas' ambition since he was a senior at Colonie Central High School in Colonie, N.Y., and now it has become a reality. "This internship been a fantastic experience," he said. "When I first heard about it, I thought it was probably a long shot. I am so glad that I applied, and that it's worked out so well." What makes the internship unique is that, following two weeks of training and observation, Stamas has taken on the responsibilities of a full-time production assistant. He was recently responsible for compiling highlights for the Purdue-Nebraska men's basketball game, which included researching the game, developing story lines, logging every major play and, of course, editing clips from the game for air on deadline. His work behind the scenes is instrumental in helping ESPN's anchors discuss games on air. To that end, Stamas said the work "is stressful, but it's also incredibly enjoyable to make games appealing even to casual fans." Among the lessons he has learned during his internship are to budget his time – he is often racing the clock when he is preparing highlights for SportsCenter – and to accept constructive criticism without dwelling on it or letting it negatively impact his work. Prior to his role at ESPN, Stamas worked a sports intern for CNY Central and a production intern at Time Warner Cable Sports Channel which, along with his experience on air and behind the scenes at LCTV, helped to prepare him for this adventure. "When I first became interested in this field, I wanted to be a SportsCenter anchor, and I would still love to do that," he said. "However, I've found that I also really enjoy working behind the camera. Being a producer may be a new dream of mine." Read More..

Free Publications on Bees and Beekeeping
Honey Definition Q &A
Questions about the
"New York Standard of Identity for Honey"
(Technical Definition of Honey)
1) Q- What is a Standard of Identity for Honey (SOI)?
A-The SOI would provide a technical description of honey that is sold in New York. It just defines the word HONEY, that is all. When someone buys honey here in New York, it should meet certain standards to ensure that consumers are buying pure honey (Truth in Labeling). Olive oil and vinegar have technical definitions, yet honey does not.
2) Q- Why is a honey standard needed?
A-To help prevent the sale of adulterated honey .There have been far too many instances of adulterated and contaminated honey entering the United States, much of it from China. Currently, if diluted honey is discovered, there are no laws on the books adequately describing what honey is. The current definition of honey (NYS Ag & Markets, circular 911 section 205) is a one sentence statement unchanged since 1902.
3) Q- Why is a honey definition important?
A- Truth in Labeling. When someone buys honey in New York State, they can have some assurance that they are buying real honey. Having a Standard of Identity for Honey will protect the image and integrity of honey as a pure, natural food and increase the confidence of the consumer. It also would help to prevent the dumping of cheap, imported honey, which would depress the price of honey for the beekeeper producer and packer.
4) Q- Do other States have a honey standard?
A-Yes, Florida, California, North Carolina, Wisconsin and several other states recently enacted Standards of Identity for Honey. Many other States are in the process of developing a SOI. Also, the National Honey Producers Association, the American Beekeeping Federation, and the National Honey Packers & Dealers Association have all passed resolutions to support a Standard of Identity for Honey.
5) Q- How was this standard/definition determined?
A- All the honey standards in the USA are extracts of the International Honey Standard, which is used in Europe. The current proposed honey standard (S3321) is copied from the California honey definition, with 2 changes. The CA definition was authored by Eric Mussen PhD, UC Davis; and has been accepted by the CA honey industry for over 2 1/2 years. CA ranks #2 in US domestic honey production.
6) Q- Why don't we have a National definition for Honey?
A- The FDA has been petitioned several times over the past 6 six years to enact a definition for honey. Finally, in late 2011 the FDA issued a statement with their refusal for a honey definition. Most likely the only way we will get a National definition is for more states to enact a technical honey definition.
There is a National Honey Grading Scale, which sorts honey according to color, clarity, etc, which is similar to grading eggs, but it does not define honey.
7) Q- What are the current laws on honey in New York State?
A- NY Ag & Markets law has 2 sections pertaining to honey, Sections 205 & 206: Section 205 "Defining Honey", is what Bill S3321 seeks to change, to establish a
technical definition for pure honey; this one sentence law is inadequate and has been unchanged since 1902. Section 206 pertains to the labeling of honey-- if ANY OTHER ingredients are added to the honey, this law covers it. It has been referred to as the Honey Labeling law.
8) Q- Can I still sell flavored honey, like creamed flavored honey?
A- Yes, the existing law Section 206 already covers that.
9) Q- Why are certain flowers listed and not others?
A- The nectar from flowers listed such as Alfalfa, citrus, lavender, etc are internationally known exceptions to the 5% sucrose rule; all other blossom honeys should have no more than
5% sucrose.
10) Q- What if I give my bees winter feed, could this get in the early honey?
A- The Spring increase of the bees should consume the feed. Winter feeding of bees has not been an issue in California & North Carolina.
11) Q- Why is the moisture content 18.6%?
A- Honey will ferment over 18.6% moisture. The Federal Honey Loan program required that honey be no higher than 18.6% moisture. Using a refractometer is good business practice, to ensure quality control of your product. There are many methods, for both small & large scale honey production, to reduce the moisture if it is high. North Carolina's honey standard of identity has a limit of 18.6%.
12) Q- What about varietals like buckwheat, clover honey?
A-Once a definition of honey is established, perhaps standards for monofloral or varietal honey can be determined.
13) Q- Will honey houses be required to be inspected as a result?
A- No, enacting a new Standard of Identity for Honey will only change the current NYS definition of honey (Section 205) and not alter other Ag & Market regulations. The proposed honey standard just defines the word HONEY (pure honey); That's it. It does not change any current food inspection laws or add any enforcement laws.
14) Q- What about honey that has had pollen removed?
A- A recent news report revealed that some honey is marketed which has had the pollen removed. This is done by a process called ultra-filtration, which removes dust, pollen and air bubbles to prolong the liquid state of shelf honey. Most people assume that there is pollen in honey, which leads to the perception that honey is a pure, natural, healthful food. Perhaps in the future, removal of pollen should be noted on the ingredient label, in response to consumer demand.

|Iran to take legal action over U.S. drone incursion
TEHRAN – Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi announced on Wednesday that Iran will pursue the recent violation of the country's airspace by a U.S. drone through legal channels.
The commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Naval Force, Rear Admiral Ali Fadavi, announced on Tuesday that IRGC naval forces had captured a U.S. ScanEagle drone that had violated Iranian airspace.
The drone was captured by air defense units of the IRGC Naval Force when it entered Iranian airspace in the Persian Gulf after it had circulated for a few days in the area.
Tuesday marked the one-year anniversary of the announcement of Iran's capture of an RQ-170 Sentinel drone, which had penetrated 250 kilometers into Iranian airspace.
Salehi said, "We had previously warned the Americans in this relation, but they claimed that they do not have presence in our airspace. This drone is a piece of evidence in our possession, and we will use it to legally pursue the incursion of the Americans at international organizations."
"We had previously raised official objection to such actions of the Americans and had announced that we would defend our boundaries using any available means," he said, adding, "We had told the Americans that according to international conventions, we would not allow them to violate our borders and airspace, but unfortunately they did not heed (warnings)."
In addition, Salehi said that IRGC forces once again proved the might and capabilities of Iranian armed forces through capturing the U.S. drone.
Last month, Tehran sent a letter to the United Nations formally protesting repeated U.S. violations of Iranian airspace with drones.

NATIONAL NEWS (CNN) — The jury weighing the fate of a white Florida man accused of killing a black teen during an argument over loud music could make a decision Friday in the much-watched case.
The jury was scheduled to resume deliberations at 9 a.m. ET Friday.
Jurors are considering evidence in the case against Michael Dunn, who says he acted in self-defense when he opened fire on four teenagers in an SUV in Jacksonville in November 2012.
Prosecutors contend it was an act of murder. Dunn has been charged with first-degree murder in the killing of 17-year-old Jordan Davis. He also has been charged with three counts of attempted murder. If Dunn is found guilty, he faces up to life in prison.
A "comprehensive public safety plan" has been established ahead of a verdict in the case, according to the Duval County joint information center handling the Dunn trial. The case has drawn parallels to the trial of George Zimmerman in the killing of teenager Trayvon Martin, which also had racial overtones and claims of self-defense.
"All contingencies have been planned for," the Duval County statement said. "We will not discuss the specifics of any security plan. We will continue to protect the rights of those who choose to peaceably demonstrate."
Defense attorney Cory Strolla told CNN's Chris Cuomo on Friday the Zimmerman and Dunn cases aren't so similar in his mind.
There was a physical confrontation between Zimmerman and Martin, and police gave Zimmerman the benefit of the doubt about defending himself, Strolla said.
"My client did not wait to become that victim; my client did not wait to either get assaulted by a weapon or have someone potentially pull a trigger," he said.
Unlike the Zimmerman case, police rushed to charge Dunn with murder, the defense attorney said.
"They already made up their mind before they even had the evidence basically looked at and put together," he said.
Even though a weapon was never found, Strolla maintains the youths could have had one. Dunn felt threatened and acted to defend himself, he said.
"Now, does it sound irrational? Of course it sounds irrational. But have you ever been in that situation?" Strolla said.
Jury questions
Jurors on Thursday asked to see surveillance video from the gas station where Dunn shot Davis.
The video contains 20 minutes of footage from multiple angles, though a shorter version showing only one angle was slated to be shown in court.
The jurors posed another question later Thursday: "Can we get that dummy with the sticks?" -- a reference to a flexible mannequin and three dowels used to demonstrate the angles of the bullets as they entered Davis' body.
Judge Russell Healey said he'd grant the request if both the prosecution and defense agreed, but after examining the dummy, Strolla said he felt the dowels in the body had been repositioned and objected to the jury seeing it again.
In closing arguments Wednesday, prosecutors said inconsistencies between Dunn's words and actions undermined his assertion he acted in self-defense when he fatally shot the teen.
His attorney countered the state failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt his client was guilty. He pleaded with jurors to find Dunn not guilty.
In testimony Tuesday, Dunn said he fired in self-defense after the teen threatened him with a gun.
"My intent was to stop the attack, not necessarily end a life," he said. "It just worked out that way."
'There was no gun'
But Assistant State Attorney Erin Wolfson said Wednesday that Dunn's claims don't add up.
She noted that Dunn fired 10 shots at the SUV, three of them while the car was fleeing.
He never took cover -- but instead opened his car door -- even though he would later tell detectives he had seen a weapon, she said.
"There was no gun," Wolfson told jurors.
In addition, she said, he did not tell his fiancee, Rhonda Rouer, that he had seen a weapon until more than a month later.
Dunn also left the scene of the shooting, went back to a hotel where they were staying and walked his dog, she said.
And he returned the next day to his house -- more than two hours away -- all without calling 911, Wolfson said.
"This defendant didn't tell anyone because he thought he had gotten away with murder," she said, adding that Dunn had no idea a witness had taken down his tag number.
'Rap crap'
Dunn has testified he described the music to his fiancee as "rap crap."
In the parking lot, as the music blared, "his blood started to boil; he didn't like the music that was coming out of the car next to him; he got angrier and angrier," Wolfson said.
Dunn rolled down his window and asked the youths to turn it down, which they did, but then turned it back up, Wolfson said.
"He got angry at the fact that a 17-year-old kid decided not to listen to him," she said, adding that Dunn then pulled a 9 mm gun out of his glove box and shot "systematically and methodically" at the SUV. "Nobody denied that Jordan was talking back. But this defendant took it upon himself to silence Jordan Davis forever."
Dunn testified Tuesday that he saw Davis reach down and pick something up, and that he saw about "4 inches of a barrel" from a 12- or 20-gauge shotgun above the window.
'You're not going to kill me'
He muttered aloud to himself, " 'You're not going to kill me, you son of a bitch,' " as he opened the glove compartment, grabbed his pistol, dropped the holster at his feet, chambered a round and began firing, he said.
Nine of the 10 rounds hit the car, and three of them struck Davis, one of them cutting through his liver, his lung and his aorta.
Wolfson rejected Dunn's assertion he had been trying to de-escalate the situation and he feared for his life.
Strolla, the defense attorney, noted that no witnesses had accused Dunn of using any hate words and testified that his client had just come from a wedding, where his ex-wife said he had appeared to be in a good mood.
Strolla noted that the SUV departed the gas station after the shooting and was gone for three minutes before it returned, enough time for the youths to have dumped a gun.
Detectives did not search the area for days after the shooting, he said.
Strolla cited testimony from another passenger in the car with Davis who acknowledged he may not have heard all the conversation between the two men.
'You have reasonable doubt'
Witnesses testified that child locks on the SUV were engaged, and that Davis -- who was seated in the rear -- could not have gotten out of the back seat to threaten Dunn. But Strolla said the teen could simply have opened the door by putting his hand out the window, which was open.
"You have lack of evidence, conflicts of evidence and reasonable doubt," he told the jurors.
On rebuttal, Assistant State Attorney John Guy appealed to the jurors' "common sense."
"That defendant didn't shoot into a car full of kids to save his life," he said. "He shot into it to preserve his pride. Period. That's why we're here."
Though Davis may have had a big mouth, he had no weapon, Guy said. Though he acknowledged minor inconsistencies in witness accounts, he said that was to be expected. "It's not like television," he said. "In real life, there are inconsistencies."
The court has decided not to release the identifications of the jurors, fearing they could be the subject of threats, but a document obtained by CNN affiliate WTLV-TV in Jacksonville showed the makeup of the jury.
It has four white females, two black females, four white males, an Asian female and a Hispanic male, plus four alternates.
CNN's Tom Watkins and John Couwels contributed to this report.

Landry provides Clippers with winning spark
Wednesday, February 6, 2013
DURHAM — In a game that looked like both defenses were destined to win out, Ben Landry broke out for 26 points in leading the Portsmouth High School boys basketball team to a 57-51 win over Oyster River on Tuesday in Division II.
"Ben was outstanding," said Portsmouth coach Jim Mulvey. "Travis is our leading scorer, and he was out with the flu, and I told the guys, 'That's why we're a team.' Somebody else has to step up. Ben did that. He was unbelievable in the second half."
"I think the most frustrating thing was that we couldn't get any continuity on offense," said Oyster River coach Stuart Mitchell. "We had too many guys standing around watching and we couldn't get any flow. Our defense played very well, but we couldn't get anything going offensively."
"Games like this, with guys out of the lineup, you find out if you really are a team," Mulvey said. "I think we did tonight."

I received the Cleveland Classic 290, 9 degree driver, (Stiff Shaft) and took it to the range. At first I wasn't too happy, kept fading the ball. Played my first round, and couldn't keep it on the fairway. The next round, I finally started figuring it out, and started bombing low penetrating drives.I would suggest that you "Tee" it just a bit lower than seems normal, and tilt the head just a bit inward. It's big face will do the rest. I had no problem getting it airborne, and was even able to start drawing and fading it.I almost gave up, but the more I hit it, the more it gave me. The more you rip it, the better it feels. It seems like the harder you hit it, the more forgiving it gets.Best Driver I've ever hit.
Long and extremely accurate, which I love the most. After all these years, I hate missing fairways. I have 43R, 12 degree (but I never sky it). So easy to hit. This club head is BEAUTIFUL. I love that persimmon look in the sunshine. Best driver I have owned in 50 years of golfing. Classic wording on top is a plus and seeing top of faceplate at address really aids centering. This is a definite confidence enhancer that no other driver has. Extra deep face is so sweet and classic 460cc pear shape is so much better than all those overcooked 460cc humongous looking saucer heads. This 2012 version far exceeds its visually boring 2013 successor. Everything about this club is confidence building. Black shaft is a great technical match and a visual sleeper; the 2011 43R shaft in gold would have been sweet. Recommend Cleveland mix persimmon head and gold shaft in future edition. Hot List is wrong--the 3 head colors go great together. Stock lite grip is sorry and too thin. Add a Winn lite grip, but let a shop put it on: they are tricky to install and I ripped a midsize one.
I love this driver! It looks, sounds, and performs great. The price on these now are a steal for what you get. So easy to hit. Great club all around.
Really good driver, just a little dated these days.
Ive been looking at this driver sence last year love the retro look but didnt want to buy new .finale ran across this one used on global golf and love it i noticed you need to tee it lower with that deep face its very forgiving it shoulds like a old wood driver

Is it because "the kernel people" drop support themselves for this old Intel hardware without your consent?
Is it because "the kernel people" drop support themselves for this old Intel hardware without your consent?
On the subject of multi-card, what are the chances Intel will release a stand-alone graphics card without the cpu? I don't understand why they don't. They already make the GPU's, so what's wrong with putting it on a board for use with desktops?
Can someone explain to me what Intel has to loose from this idea? The customers are already there, practically.
In other words, if you take any PCI-Express 2.0 ATI or Nvidia discrete GPU manufactured since ~Q4 2009, and discard the ones that don't have an on-board fan, you're basically looking at those cards blowing Intel's GPUs out of the water in terms of performance. And Intel doesn't even have the technology developed to support the mid/high-end; they can't just make an existing IGP bigger and have it magically become competitive with a high-end Radeon or GeForce.
Sure, from a naive point of view, they COULD take the existing ASIC and just plaster it onto an add-on board instead of integrated with the motherboard; but the biggest design issue with that is the fact that Intel's IGPs use system memory as equivalent to GPU "VRAM", while the add-on cards always use dedicated on-chip GDDR3 or GDDR5.
Not only does this require a significant change in the hardware design, but it also means that drivers written to put textures in system memory now have to put them in on-board VRAM. And then you have to design hardware instructions for interacting with the VRAM, and so on and so forth.
Basically Intel would have to design a new ASIC with a major departure from existing Intel IGPs, and write a completely different kind of driver, in order to offer an Intel graphics processor on a discrete board.
Is it really going to be just AMD and NVIDIA forever? I thought Intel was a big CPU company. I guess that's the only thing. It seems strange to me. Who else can compete?
If GPU's are regarded as essential to computing in general, then what is Intel planning to do, to avoid becoming obsolete to desktop users?
What if an amd/radeon combination delivers better graphics? There is the potential that more users would go for this. Even if AMD cpu's are slower, if there is more perceivable benefits due to reliance on 3d acceleration by various desktops, I think I might go for that.
I just happen to have purchased Intel CPU (i3-2105) + MB thanks to their outstanding opensource support. Gallium is wanted, guys!
Mesa is good but Gallium is better.
Intel have got Mesa running so well that many users don't care about Gallium. But of course having a Gallium3D driver would still increase the features through state trackers, and perhaps performance as well.
- Software and hardware patents. With a company as huge as Intel, with all this money (billions) at stake, you better believe that software and hardware patents owned by AMD and Nvidia are going to be used aggressively against Intel if they attempt to use anything that may be covered by an AMD or Nvidia patent. The other thing to remember is that AMD and Nvidia are under no obligation to permit Intel to legally license their patents for any fair amount of money; or alternatively, their demands could be so high as to effectively nullify Intel's profit margin. The reason that AMD and Nvidia can continue to exist without suing each other into oblivion is that each company holds a large enough critical mass of 3d graphics patents that they've either (a) cross-licensed both company's patents to each other, or (b) they've found some kind of technological battle line where both companies can produce a viable product without stepping on one another's patents (because remember, AMD only has to worry about Nvidia's patents and not their own; and Nvidia only has to worry about AMD's patents and not their own; if we ignore patent trolls, S3, SGI, etc. for a moment. By comparison, Intel would have to dodge BOTH AMD's AND Nvidia's patents simultaneously to produce a product.)
- Anti-monopoly forces within government and the public would probably notice if Intel became "king" of yet another major market segment. If you think about it, they are basically already the king of high-end consumer and server CPUs; they are already a leader in many very lucrative market segments; and they already produce rather good IGPs that offer a unique trade-off, sacrificing performance for a fantastic power profile (they are very energy-efficient compared to AMD and Intel discrete GPUs). As an anti-monopoly person myself, I'm kind of happy that we don't have Intel overlords owning the entire hardware stack, from the CPU to the motherboard to the GPU. Well, it's still possible to buy systems like that, but not at the high-end performance category of GPU.
