US$400,000 Covini six-wheeled supercar set for production
Article Summary
It feels like we've been awaiting this car for almost too long. We first wrote up the Covini C6W supercar in 2004 and the production version was unveiled in Bologna earlier this month. The four 15 inch front wheels of the 185 mph C6W (pics on left) are inspired by the Tyrell P34 F1 car (top right), but the rationale for four front-wheels was first detailed in a landmark Ford concept car shown at the World Fair in 1963 – the Seattle-ite's specification still stands up nearly half a century later - interchangeable fuel cell power units, interchangeable bodies, computer navigation and information systems, and four driving and steering wheels. That's it bottom right.

'Thanksgiving is a verb'
'Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.'

RAGE 30 lb Slammer Ball
Works Great!!!
Works great, been using it for two weeks I have over 100 kids, twice a week ball gets slam over 6000 times looks the same as new.
May 8, 2014
I have just recently started getting back into exercising and I came across these rage products. So I youtube the product and went to their website and decided to give it a shot, wanting to up my game in the exercise world LOL. So my orginial plan was to buy the 20lb slam ball but where I shop they were out so I opted for the 30lb slam ball and MAN did I go with the RIGHT choice. When using it for the first time, I got more of a work out than I did using the elliptical that I start off with. I mean for right now I can only do 5 slams and then have to take a break because this slam ball has NO bounce what so ever so you have to literally pick the ball up off the ground and then re-lift back over your head and do it all over again LOL. So if your wanting to up your game in crossfit or what ever I would definantly get this ball. Well GOOD LUCK and HAVE FUN

Hamels aims to give Phils rare NL East series win
First-place Nationals counter with Gio in attempt to even set in Philly
It's been a while since the Phillies won a series against a National League East opponent. But if they beat the Nationals in Tuesday's game at Citizens Bank Park, they'll secure their first series victory vs. a divisional foe since mid-June.
There might not be a better pitcher to take on that task than Cole Hamels.
His chances at an eighth win are plenty high considering how well he's performed when facing the Nats in his career. Lifetime, he's 15-7 with a 2.54 ERA in 30 starts against them.
Of all the divisional rivals, Washington seems to bring out the best in Hamels. The only other NL East team against whom he owns a winning record is Atlanta, at 15-8 -- his ERA in 33 starts against them, though, is 3.34.
But poor run support has derailed many of Hamels' best efforts this season. A perfect example is his first three August outings, across which he was 0-1 despite only giving up five runs (four earned) in 21 innings and posting three quality starts.
He lasted seven innings in each of those performances but the Phillies didn't reward him. They did, however, manage to back him up when he last toed the rubber Wednesday against the Mariners. Even though he exited after the fifth inning by running up his pitch count to 99 and yielding three runs on nine hits, the lefty earned his seventh win in his 23rd start of the season.
The Nationals, meanwhile, will turn to Gio Gonzalez. He recorded his first quality start since July 26 when he faced the D-backs on Thursday. Gonzalez surrendered no runs on four hits over seven innings, thanks in part to rediscovered command of his curveball. But he didn't get a win because Arizona's Wade Miley also shut out the Nationals, who eventually got to the bullpen for a walk-off victory, their 10th win in a row.
If there's anyone who can commiserate with Hamels' lack of run support, it's Gonzalez -- of late, anyway. In his last 33 1/3 innings spanning six starts, Gonzalez has received two runs of offensive support while in the game. Granted, the southpaw allowed 15 earned runs and opponents hit .273 against him.
"It was fun just being a part of something that is going on," Gonzalez said following Thursday's game. "We have had such great pitching lately. Our bullpen has been fantastic. ... I just wanted to try to blend in with the rest of the rotation, try not to stick out like a sore thumb."
Nationals: Cabrera likely to start vs. Hamels
Second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera could return to the lineup on Tuesday, two days after experiencing tightness in his right rib cage that forced him to leave Sunday's game. After doing some early hitting on Monday, manager Matt Williams said Cabrera seemed fine.
Cabrera proved he was OK when he got a chance to pinch-hit in the ninth inning of Monday night's 3-2 loss. He singled on a grounder to right field to put any lingering doubts about the injury to rest.
"I wanted to stay away from him if at all possible tonight to give him a day to make sure," Williams said. "But we knew after batting practice. He went through a full BP and swung from both sides and had no issues. So he should be good to go."
Since joining Washington, the switch-hitter has a .264 average, five doubles, a triple, two homers and 10 RBIs. He's also walked 12 times, giving him a .365 on-base percentage.
Phillies: Starting to consider options for September callups
The September roster expansion is just around the corner, but the Phillies are still debating which of their prospects will join them in the big leagues when that time comes.
One of the possibilities is their No. 3 prospect, Maikel Franco, a corner infielder who had a .313 second-half batting average with Triple-A Lehigh Valley entering Monday. However, with third base manned by Cody Asche and first manned by Ryan Howard, it might be difficult for Franco to get playing time.
Worth noting
• Philadelphia has not won three straight series since winning four in a row from July 2-14, 2013.
• Injured reliever Mike Adams will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.
• With Monday's loss, the Nationals dropped to 20-23 in series openers. However, they have overcome a series-opening setback to claim a series victory five times this year (all since July 4).

Pirastro designed Violino strings with low string tension and fast response, allowing the strings to speak easily even at the lowest bow pressure. Great durability in different climate conditions.

NS Electric strings have a naturally powerful output, but since electronic rather than acoustic amplification is the means by which the bowed electric player manages volume, the entire focus of the NS Electric string design is on fullness of tone and set balance. The key to string design is to optimize each string to perform within its unique frequency range, and to keep the low and high strings in balance.
Shop this brandBrilliant Vintage (Warchal)
The Slovakian string maker Warchal only started making strings in 2003. In the decade since then, the distinctly European sound of Warchal strings has impressed many American violinists.

A microfluidic assay design for real-time bacterial chemotaxis studies
Koser, H., Kaya, T., Mao, L.Department of Electrical Engineering, Yale University, New Haven, CT
We have developed a novel, multilayered microfluidic chamber that enables the realtime quantitative study of chemotaxis on virtually all types of motile cells.
In this paper, we present a FEMLAB modeling study of the 3D chamber design, including a consideration of each device iteration that successively led to the eventual design. The final chamber design is able to create and maintain an arbitrary chemical concentration profile along a containment channel in which cells are entirely free to swim in the absence of any flow. Therefore, the device design introduced here eliminates hydrodynamic forces on cells and enables a much more accurate study of chemotaxis phenomena than previously possible.

Thank you intel for really putting an effort into your OSS driver development.
Phoronix: Windows 8 Outperforming Ubuntu Linux With Intel OpenGL Graphics
In our benchmarks of Microsoft Windows 8, we have found that Intel's Windows OpenGL driver is generally superior to that of their open-source Linux graphics driver. Some progress has been made, but in today's testing of an ASUS Ultrabook bearing an Ivy Bridge processor, Linux has a ways to go for some games in matching the Windows binary performance and features.
Thank you intel for really putting an effort into your OSS driver development.
Well it's a good thing Ubuntu is switching to a much more efficient OpenGL ES 2.0-based interface then. I've always found Unity to be too bloated, even compared to Windows 7 & Aero. So looking forward to the new display server and interface.
On a quick glance this title looks like it is saying windows 8 has better performance than linux. Could you use titles like e.g. "Intel driver for windows 8 outperforming intel driver for linux" instead, that better describe what the article wants to say?Windows 8 Outperforming Ubuntu Linux[...]
So, this was done with unity's/compiz' compositing. There shouldn't be a noticeable difference for the open source drivers between running opengl on a composited desktop vs on a non-composited one anymore, right?
Now you take the values of that benchmark:
mix them together,
and see that you will get much more FPS using something like OpenBox.
And now you have beaten Windows.
Alright, so you decided to do these benchmarks using the obviously most relevant and interesting titles for PC gaming right now available, such as Nexuiz, Xonotic, and OpenArena, and by no means uninteresting and irrelevant titles such as Team Fortress 2, Unigine OilRush, Serious Sam 3, Counter Strike: Source and the like.
Also, you decided to do your benchmark with Ubuntu Unity, instead of doing it with KDE. This is a relevant point, since PTS has proven again and again that Ubuntu Unity, unlike KDE, is known to degrade by itself game performance.
And I'm not even beginning to suggest things like those Martin Grässlin suggested in his blog, like making KWin custom rules to disable compositing on demand when running those games.
Again a useless benchmark done with Unity, a DE known for its inpredictable influences on 3D performance. When will Michael learn that this is not the way to do it?

I had higher hopes for the feel of the fabric after reading another review. Make no mistake, the fabric is quite nice, but I was hoping for a silkier and more polished feel. I would describe the weight as "medium." These made-in-India sheets came out of the washer/dryer looking very nice and nearly wrinkle free, but the fabric has a "nap" that I'm not crazy for. This nap is going to grab flannel and cotton bed clothes and hang on tight enough for a serious "nightgown twist" or "pajama wedgie." Maybe this nap will lessen after repeated laundering - I certainly hope so. I ordered "taupe" which is nearly as dark brown as dark chocolate. None of these things are a big enough issue for me to return the sheets, but it's still a bit disappointing and I wouldn't buy them again.
Bought these sheets in sage and think they are great. The color is what I expected. The material quality exceeded my expectations. I have the 8" Serta memory foam mattress that I bought from this site. I also have a 2" memory foam topper that I put on it. WIth the mattress and topper combined the sheets fit very well. They fit the corners very nice and they don't feel like they are about to rip as some others have. Fitted sheet fits the matress surface and corners tightly. Flat sheet is long enough to tuck deep under the footboard end of the mattress and still pull all of the way up to the top edge near the headboard. After 1st wash they were still a little too rough. After 2nd washing they had just a hint of newness / roughness. After 3rd wash they were comfortable. After 4th wash they are perfect. Definitely some of the most comfortable sheets I have slept on anywhere....ever! I don't think I would consider sheets with a lower thread count than these, especially for the insignificant difference in price compared to the several years of use that I will get out of them. Have no fear of these sheets after a few washes. Anyone that would complain about the comfortability of these sheets after washing out the newness probably has a life-long predisposition towards complaining about everything in life... those people annoy me.
I bought these sheets to replace a set of 600 TC sheets that I bought in Egypt six years ago that had worn out. I was sceptical about them living up to the quality of the ones they were replacing but they definitely have! They have only been washed about three times but even after the first wash they had softened up and are very comfortable and they have not pilled at all. I will definitely be buying some more of them.
After purchasing a cheap 200 TC set of sheets from ***, I knew I needed something much softer. I did some research about thread counts, materials, etc., & decided to order these. I was very disappointed to discover that these didn't feel any more comfortable than the cheap set from ***. While the material is heavier, they feel stiff & coarse, even after washing. I ended up purchasing a different brand w/ a 400 TC from *** for half the price, which are far more comfortable! If I were you, I'd save your money & shop elsewhere.
When I opened the package, I thought at first they had shipped the wrong color, but they didn't. I ordered 'taupe' and got that, but they really aren't. Beware, their taupe is "milk chocolate" brown. The cotton is a high quality, but they aren't soft. If you care about wrinkles (I don't) then don't buy these sheets. They wrinkle badly. All that said, I'm not returning them because they will soften and the cotton is a high quality. If you wan't a soft sheet to begin with, buy Sateen sheets.
Worth every penny. So soft. So comfortable. Love them.
They are soft but but did not hold up as well as I would have liked.
Nice sheets, priced great. Would recommend.
Terrible quality Would return if possible Whre did this come form?
These sheets fit our bed fantastic. They are so much thicker than any other sheets they feel like they will last forever and best of all........NO Pills! I have bought about 6 sets of sheets in the last year or so and EVERY set eventually pills up. These are so fantastic I am buying another 2 sets!

YATI : | The military tactics used in this episode are pretty poor. The Jem'Hadar just charge at the defenders en masse. Remember that photon grenade launcher Kirk used in "Arena"? Imagine what just half a dozen of those little things would do to such an attack. Surely the Defiant could have replicated a few launchers and beamed them down? For that matter, what about just firing a long burst of phaser fire and sweeping it from side to side, instead of all those fast shots they use? It would be far more devastating than present day machine gun fire. A single wide-angle beam would be even better. And don't claim that they would run out of power too quickly, because we see extra power clips being handed out before the battle but nobody is ever seen actually changing one. |
Great Moment : | Despite the numerous flaws, I love this whole episode. I love that it gives us a glimpse into the true horrors of war, something you don't often get when seeing ships blowing up on a viewscreen. | ||||
Body Count : | Two Starfleet officers are killed by the Houdinis, and Larkin, Kellin, and Vargas are killed in battle - probably others also. Nog loses his leg. Large numbers of Jem'Hadar are killed both on and off screen, both in ground combat and in at least one Attack Ship seen destroyed. |

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of giving chemotherapy and hormone therapy before radical prostatectomy (surgery to remove the prostate) to radical prostatectomy alone in men with previously untreated localized prostate cancer that has a high risk of returning after surgery. Patients will be randomly assigned to have surgery with or without preoperative docetaxel and hormonal therapy.
Researchers want to determine if chemotherapy and hormone therapy given before surgery improve the chance of a cure. They will also ask patients about their diet and lifestyle habits to see if they predict how well a patient fares.
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
For more information and to see if you are eligible for this study, please contact Dr. James Eastham at 646-422-4390.

Does anybody else have a same problem by using openSUSE 10.3 and some ati hd series card and after installing the driver(8.41.7) using Yast or console and have everything(packages) in your system that you need and after reboot your screen is totally black even if you try to use failsafe or non x.
driver-install bombed, totally, without saying anything about it.
So, as usual with the ATI drivers, for ME, anyways, I had to do the
cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/
/bin/cp fglrx.ko \
/lib/modules/`/bin/uname -r`/kernel/drivers/char/drm/
( that's actually a cut-n-paste from my system's /etc/rc.d/halt.local
I HAD to do that, or the damn thing would black-screen every time the kernel got updated, and I've got it set so the updates are completely automatic, so the ATI refresh had to become completely automatic, too! )
Try the sequence, and see if it fixes things. . .
oh, yeah, it's gotta be done as root, eh?
and that `uname -r` bit is just to get the current concept of the kernel, is all. . .
dang, I just realized it'd require a double-reboot to get the system up properly, after a kernel-update:
once to get into the new kernel, then a shutdown from there to get my graphics-refresh. . . baH!!
Hmm, maybe I should have it done in boot.local, then?
( yeah, it's an ugly hack, but it works. )
Yes in root: sh ./install_package i install it, and black screen i mean that when i boot computer on, its stop situation where i have totally black screen and nothing happens even i have waite 10 min.
And i have gcc, make, kernel source, jne.
And installation goes correctly aticonfig ..., sax2, but after boot stops on totally black screen, that i mean in this situation.
when I installed the fglrx driver for hd2400, the install SEEMED to have worked, but
on reboot, the graphics of the boot-process zoomed by, then when it TRIED to go into X, the screen went black.
It didn't matter how long I waited, it didn't matter how many times I re-booted the machine, it was the same again and again:
BIOS Power-On-Self-Test,
root/system stuff,
If you add the boot-paramater of 2
( add " 2" to the boot-command line, without the quotes, of course )
you can probably get the machine to boot into text-mode, no-X, no-network.
Once you do that, login as root, and type
lsmod | grep fglrx
this will list the kernel-modules ( lsmod ), and
show you any with "fglrx" in their name.
I bet that there ISN'T one loaded, and that that is the problem.
That is why the build-script, the copy, and the depmod, I listed above.
IF there isn't a fglrx kernel-module that matches the current kernel, it can't be loaded, and therefore X will be useless
( unless /etc/X11/xorg.conf does *not* reference fglrx. . . -- in which case its non-existence should not matter )
Yes, i`m using 188.8.131.52.... kernel, but i can`t get log in even in text mode, even do i did clear the bios and it make little flash on the beginning when i boot on, but darm after 5 reboot/boot and ~20-30min wait it stucked on the black screen, hmm well i will try to another 10.3 in wmware and get the xorg-file so i and we or somebody can tell/help more/better
First off, you can boot up you system by adding this to the end of the options right at the grub boot screen (make sure there is a space before it):
What caused the black screen of death for me was this: the installer left the original system file /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 and installed it's own as /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2Code:init 3
IIRC this didn't happen to me on OpenSuSE 10.2, but anyway you should check to see if there are two GL libs.
If it exists, the one you want to move out of the way is:
I'm still using 8.40.4, so I don't know if that's the issue in your case with 8.41.xCode:391344 2007-09-21 21:34 libGL.so.1.2
check ur x.org, frequency for the display, its bugged on my CF 2900 XT
i had to correct it myself, and remove a driver and 1 monitor, it didnt delete the stuff from the vesa driver. so i had 2 configurations in one x.org aswell, stole the display settings from the monitor section from the previous driver, voila, worked for me.
And i had a issue in 64 bit, strange one, i wrote my username: atkins "enter"
Password : xxxxxxxxxxxx "enter"
took 10 seconds, got display, only vesa again >_<
but got it working again afer lots of tickering, but, couldnt find out what made it work, was to angry to controll myself.
Assuming you use init 3 from the grub boot screen and are able to login, and the problem is you're unable to get the fglrx module to build, you need this patch:
Edit:[Forgot to state build command]Code:--- /usr/src/linux/scripts/mod/modpost.c 2007-10-08 07:31:40.000000000 -0400 +++ /usr/src/linux/scripts/mod/modpost.c 2007-10-20 04:12:23.000000000 -0400 @@ -1345,8 +1345,8 @@ static void check_exports(struct module basename++; else basename = mod->name; - if (!mod->gpl_compatible) - check_for_gpl_usage(exp->export, basename, exp->name); +/* if (!mod->gpl_compatible) + check_for_gpl_usage(exp->export, basename, exp->name);*/ check_for_unused(exp->export, basename, exp->name); } }
Copy the above code to /tmp/ naming it modpost.c.diff. Following that, you build the new modpost:
Then you would need to copy the new modpost from that location to the modular kernel source, for example:Code:cd /usr/src cat /tmp/modpost.c.diff | patch -p0 cd /usr/src/linux/scripts/mod gcc -o modpost modpost.c file2alias.c sumversion.c
That's the patch I used to get 8.40.4 to build. Anyway, it may still be needed for 8.41.7 (I don't recall).Code:cd /usr/src/linux-188.8.131.52-0.4-obj/i386/default/scripts/mod mv ./modpost ./modpost.old cp /usr/src/linux/scripts/mod/modpost ./

Royals looking to stay in control vs. Cobb, Rays
Kansas City seeking 11th victory in June behind righty Guthrie
Once the calendar flipped to June, the Royals transformed into the hottest team in baseball. They haven't allowed more than three runs in a game this month, resulting in a 10-3 record after Friday's 7-2 win against the Rays.
Right-hander Jeremy Guthrie will try to keep Kansas City sizzling when he faces off against Alex Cobb on Saturday. The Royals are 4-0 overall against the Rays this season after winning the first two in this four-game set at Tropicana Field.
Since June 1, the Royals have a Major League-best 1.53 ERA while holding opposing hitters to a .303 slugging percentage. Guthrie has allowed only five runs in his last 18 1/3 innings.
"Pitching has been keeping us in the ballgame the whole time," outfielder Alex Gordon said. "That puts no pressure on the offense at all."
Meanwhile, Rays manager Joe Maddon challenged his starting pitchers to do better. Over the last six games, the team's starers have combined for a 9.29 ERA. Tampa Bay's starters have also accumulated 18 starts in which the group has allowed five runs or more -- its total for the entire 2012 season.
"We know as starters, we need to step up and go deeper," Cobb said. "Take some of the burden off the bullpen. Although they've been pitching excellent for us and keeping us in ballgames. But we don't want to rely on that."
In his last start, Cobb allowed the first eight hitters to reach base, putting the team in a 6-0 deficit in the first inning before tossing three scoreless innings.
"That whole game went by so fast," Cobb said. "It was such a blur. I really haven't had time to reflect on it. That first inning, I thought I was making quality pitches and they were hitting them."
Rays: Longoria dealing with plantar fasciitis
Evan Longoria started at designated hitter for the second consecutive game on Friday and might do so for the rest of the weekend with plantar fasciitis in his right foot.
"Just a little plantar issue," Longoria said. "It's probably been bothering me for two weeks now."
Longoria said it's a new injury for him and thinks he will be able to heal quickly after Monday's off-day.
Royals: Yost returns to his post
Manager Ned Yost was back in the Royals' dugout on Friday after missing Thursday's game while attending his daughter Jenny's wedding in Georgia. However, he still couldn't keep his mind off the team.
"I watched it on the phone sitting there," he said while recalling Thursday's eight-run sixth inning that led to a 10-1 win. "I look and we got two -- good. Boom! Four, six, eight -- man!"
• The Royals signed four more selections from their First-Year Player Draft.
Third-round choice Carter Hope, a right-hander from The Woodlands, Texas, and fourth-round selection Zane Evans, a catcher from Georgia Tech, highlighted the signings.
Worth noting
• On April 30, Cobb gave up a season-high 10 hits against the Royals in an 8-2 loss. He also allowed four earned runs in 5 2/3 innings while striking out five.
• Longoria has dominated Guthrie in his career, hitting .306 against him with five doubles, a home run and nine RBIs.

I'd just like to add that I'm also having problems. Intel Nehalem(?) (i7-640M, at any rate). I'm using the xorg-edgers repo rather than x-swat. Ubuntu 12.10 with a stable Cinnamon release.
After messing with combinations of i915.i915_enable_rc6 and i915.i915_enable_fbc for a while, I've finally tried i915.enable_hangcheck=0 plus i915.i915_enable_rc6=3 and i915.i915_enable_fbc=1. Disabling FBC appears to cause strange drawing artifacts at times; so far while apparently switching video modes during boot or passing control from vts to X.Org or the like. The artifacts do disappear after drawing control is finished moving from whatever to whatever.
It's too early to say whether this is actually working, but nothing's killed Cinnamon this time... so far. Is the hang-check code actually bugged? I'm nervous having it disabled. I have a late C2D laptop where Windows DWM has to kill off the Intel driver periodically... and it's actually a stable machine.
Is anyone else using a 3.7 kernel and xserver-xorg-video-intel > 2.14 or so? Successfully?
ETA: apport's GPU bug reporting module kills itself while trying to create bug reports for Ubuntu. I finally gave up and disabled apport altogether.

I am eagerly waiting for these benchmarks. Tough I fear that the Linux ATi side will get a beatup.
Phoronix: Major OS Showdown w/ Windows Tests Are Imminent
While this year we have already delivered a number of notable articles and benchmarks, right now we are on the heels of delivering our most extensive set of benchmarks yet. We are in the process of comparing the performance of Windows 7 x64, Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, and Mac OS X 10.6.3 (likely FreeBSD 8.0 and OpenSolaris 2010.03 too) across multiple systems. By early May the first of these numbers will be published...
I am eagerly waiting for these benchmarks. Tough I fear that the Linux ATi side will get a beatup.
I'm getting really excited because of this,...I have a baaaad,feeling that Linus T. was right with saying Linux is bloated and i can guess that Ubuntu will exploit that just fine,...and people will draw very bad conclusions about Linux in whole,...I just hope that they know that Linux is actually on their freaking PHONES,..and MSN and Yahoo and rest of the crowd runs it in cluding Apple !!!!!
They have run Linux on the MSN servers for a long time. I don't know if they still do though.
BTW, I don't understand why you guys are excited about the tests. Aren't the results obvious?
Linux will win the GPU benchmark when Windows 7 uses the standard windows certified gpu drivers. That is because those have bad OpgenGL support (I believe they only support up to openGL 1.2).
If Michael decides to download the latest drivers from NVIDIA and ATI (which is the Windows way) then Windows will beat the living hell out of Linux graphics whise.
The rest of the benchmarks will show the familiar sight of Linux being much more efficient with recources and thus faster then Windows.
Both nvidia and ATI Linux drivers have near identical 3D performance in Windows and Linux, bugs aside. WINE performance doesn't really count, since WINE is, well, WINE . Provided the most recent drivers for both nvidia and ATI are used using apps. that run natively on both operating systems (and no major bugs are present, which is a bigger concern for fglrx), I expect 3D performance in Linux vs. Windows to be similar (give or take a few frames).
My guess is that windows will win most 3d performance tests and will positively slaughter linux on 2d tests, provided (a) the proper ICDs are installed and (b) the tests utilize full hardware acceleration on both platforms (and not something half-assed such as the win32 port of GTK+).
Linux will likely win disk and threading benchmarks, although single-threaded performance should be close enough. Video performance should be identical or slightly better on Linux/nvidia but significantly worse on Linux/ati&intel. Browser performance will also be lower on Linux (both firefox and chromium perform worse there. Opera 10.52 is amazingly fast but it's still an alpha on Linux, so...)
We'll know for certain in a couple of weeks.
They are always 6 months behind everything. Use a rolling release distro instead like Arch.
Phoronix tests primarily on Ubuntu because that is what actually matters. (And they also test on Fedora and openSUSE when it makes sense).
Much as I like Arch, it is much less relevant in the grand scheme of things - and I'm saying that as a loyal Arch user. Besides, its rolling nature makes it very difficult to obtain meaningful, reproducible benchmarks (one day you get those results, next day they are no longer valid).
I wouldn't be so confident about that considering that the latest versions of windows are stomping on linux in webserving according to some sites and especially the performance hit that is incurred with the ext4 filesystem default that has bee adopted by so many distros.

Dow hits record, erasing Great Recession losses
Wednesday - 3/6/2013, 10:00am EST
AP Business Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- The stock market is back.
Five and a half years after the start of a frightening drop that erased $11 trillion from stock portfolios and made investors despair of ever getting their money back, the Dow Jones industrial average has regained all the losses suffered during the Great Recession and reached a new high. The blue-chip index rose 125.95 points Tuesday and closed at 14,253.77, topping the previous record of 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007, by 89.24 points.
"It signals that things are getting back to normal," says Nicolas Colas, chief market strategist at ConvergEx Group, a brokerage. "Unemployment is too high, economic growth too sluggish, but stocks are anticipating improvement."
The record suggests that investors who did not panic and sell their stocks in the 2008-2009 financial crisis have fully recovered. Those who have reinvested dividends or added to their holdings have done even better. Since bottoming at 6,547.05 on March 9, 2009, the Dow has risen 7,706.72 points or 118 percent.
The Dow record does not include the impact of inflation. Adjusted for that, the Dow would have to reach 15,502 to match its old record, according to JPMorgan Chase.
The Standard and Poor's 500, a broader index, closed at 1,539.79, 25.36 points from its record.
The last time the Dow hit a record, George W. Bush still had another year left as president, Apple had just sold its first iPhone, and Lehman Brothers was still in business.
But unemployment was also 4.7 percent versus 7.9 percent today, a reminder that stock gains have proved no elixir for the economy.
Still, the Dow high is another sign that the nation is slowly healing after the worst recession since the 1930s. It comes as car sales are at a five-year high, home prices are rising, and U.S. companies continue to report big profits.
The stock gains have helped retirement and brokerage accounts held by many Americans recover. That, in turn, has helped push U.S. household wealth nearly back to its peak before the recession, though many in the middle class are still deep in the hole. Most middle-class wealth is tied up in home values, which are still a third below their peak.
Good economic news Tuesday helped lift stocks. Retail sales in the 17 European countries that use the euro rose faster than expected, China's government said it would support ambitious growth targets, and a report showed U.S. service companies grew last month at their fastest pace in a year.
"It feels great," says Marty Leclerc, chief investment officer at Barrack Yard Advisors, an investment firm. In early 2009, when stocks were plummeting, "it looked like Armageddon was nigh. It's a lot more fun to be in a rising market."
In the depths of the recession four years ago, few investors would have predicted such a fast recovery. Some feared another Great Depression. Banks were collapsing, lending was frozen, world trade was plunging, and stocks were in free fall.
"People thought we were going to relive the 1930s," says Robert Buckland, chief global stock strategist at Citigroup. He calls the stock gains since "pretty remarkable."
From its peak in October 2007 to its bottom in March 2009, the Dow fell 54 percent. That was far less than the nearly 90 percent drop in the Great Depression but scary nonetheless. There had been 11 previous bear markets since World War II and none had reached 50 percent.
One man who stayed calm and didn't sell was Jay Sachs, 70, a retired computer consultant. In fact, as others scrambled to exit stocks in late 2008, he plunged in more -- scooping up drug maker Ely Lilly and Co., health-care products giant Johnson & Johnson and food company General Mills.
"You have to be greedy when others are fearful," he says, quoting a famous line from billionaire Warren Buffett, who also bought in the panic. Sachs adds, "People are still fearful and that's a good sign. There's room for growth."
He says his portfolio has doubled in value in four years.
As stock rebounds go, this has been an unusually quiet and uncelebrated one. Typically, bull markets are accompanied by rising trading volume, a surge in young companies going public and Internet chatter over hot stocks.
The past four years, none of that has happened.
And there were no signs of celebration on Wall Street after Tuesday's record-setting day. Like on any other day, after the closing bell traders rushed out the doors of the New York Stock Exchange and down the stairs of subway stations.
