This is our second year going in Atlanta. While the seating at the Georgia Dome is tight, the crowd is great! It's a bit expensive but I guess thats a given today. We took our 4 year old son and he loved it! If your interested, into it, or even race, hit up an AMA Supercross event. You wont be disappointed!

AMA Supercross is the most esteemed organized stadium cycling event in America. Tucked neatly into the extreme sports category, Supercross is derived from the sport of motorcross, differing mostly in the aspects of speed and difficulty level. Some trace the roots of Supercross back to a 1972 race put on by a racing promoter that was affectionately referred to as the "Super Bowl of Motorcross." On an uptick since the 1970s, the popularity of Supercross has surged making it one of the most popular sports across the US. The AMA Supercross series plays out from December into May and consists of 33 rounds across three races on 17 tracks across the US. Rain or shine the action continues, leaving the racers plowing through the mud if necessary. If you are searching for a little action to get your blood racing and adrenaline pumping, then you belong trackside at AMA Supercross. Witness the extreme action from the best seats in the stadium when you purchase your AMA Supercross tickets now!

I've just tested stock Ubuntu mesa with the X drivers from your PPA, and it hasn't produced a crash yet, so it seems it's mesa git that is the cause of this.
Using this PPA (I just updating the packages less than an hour ago) with kernel 3.3.0-rc5 on amd64, I'm getting a segfault in doom3 (I get the same thing in quake4). Am I doing something really bone-headed here to cause this?

I'll look into this issue further in a little while once I have a window of free time.
Finally had some time to look at this..
There are 2 libstdc++.so.6 files on the system:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (belongs to package libstdc++6:i386)
/usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6 (belongs to package lib32stdc++6)
By default, applications are looking in /usr/lib32 for libraries, so I tried:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu:/usr/lib32 doom3
This fixed the issue and doom3 started right up. For the most part, this system is a standard oneiric box. I didn't muck with any library search paths and what-not. Are the dri drivers supposed to be linked against the library under /usr/lib32 or is something else supposed to be redirecting the drivers to look in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu?
Using this PPA, I'm getting about 41 fps with doom3 on a core 2 quad 3.0 ghz and a sapphire radeon 4870 at 1280x1024. I'll need to check on the other settings later when I get home from work, but I'm using some sort of FSAA and anistropic filtering as well. I must say the driver devs are doing an amazing job. The performance of the open source drivers at this stage is fantastic. I'm not an expert and didn't look for any flaws in particular, but the image quality also seems to be very good as well.
The desktop performance with the open source radeon drivers is also quite good. It provides a smoother experience than my primary desktop which has superior hardware (3.33 ghz i7 980x + nvidia GTX 580). This may be due to the fact I haven't manually changed the power settings for the radeon, and I believe the default is currently to run the card at the highest setting. In about a year when it's time for me to upgrade my video card in my primary box, I think I'll finally be able to get a radeon. As much as I love gaming, I think the 3d performance is already good enough given the lack of games in linux (and in a year from now it should be even better). At this point, my only real concern with buying a radeon is the power management so as to not run up my electric bill.
Thanks for an awesome PPA!
Given how little a 7750 consumes, I doubt you'll notice the few watts difference in a yearAt this point, my only real concern with buying a radeon is the power management so as to not run up my electric bill.
But it seems a new driver needs to be created for these cards (with r600g being used as the base). I'm wondering how long this will take to get to the relative maturity of the r600g driver. I wouldn't mind replacing the 4870 in my old box *now* (which is now the family computer). Being 3 generations ahead, the 7750 is probably faster than the 4870, and it's certainly going to run cooler and use less power.

For a second year in a row there was a three-way tie for first place at Dr. Ying's Student Science Competition. Shiv Gaglani, a senior from
Their entries inspired Dr. Nelson Ying so much that instead of splitting the prize money three ways he provided additional funds so each winner took home the same amount of prize money. Richard's entry explored the structure of the universe, which could help validate current scientific theories as well as lead to advancements in telescopes plus provide answers to questions about the birth and eventual collapse of the universe. Daniel's project used computer wave simulations and physical models to identify wave patterns that could be used to predict hurricanes and tsunamis.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is a group of genetic disorders that affects movement and feeling in the limbs. The disease progresses slowly and causes damage to the peripheral nerves. These nerves control muscles and transmit sensation.
CMT can be classified in a number of ways:
CMT is caused by defects in specific genes.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The primary risk factor for developing CMT is having family members with this disease.
Usually, symptoms first appear in children and young adults. The first sign of CMT is often a high arched foot or difficulty walking. Other symptoms may include:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
You may have your nerve and muscle function tested. This can be done with:
Your doctor may need to test your DNA. This can be done with a blood test.
Although there is no cure for CMT, treatment may help to improve function, coordination, and mobility. Treatment is also vital to protect against injury due to muscle weakness and reduced sensation. Treatment may include:
There are no known ways to prevent CMT. If you have CMT or have risk factors, you may want to talk to a genetic counselor before deciding to have children.

Cincy looks for offensive spark behind Bailey
D-backs rookie Anderson aims to build on back-to-back quality starts
The Reds' second-half struggles resumed Sunday and they fell back to .500. As they continue to sink farther out of the National League Central picture, they do have one point -- at least on paper -- in their favor: Their next 20 games come against opponents who currently sit below .500.
This string of games will begin when the Reds hosts the D-backs for a three-game set starting Monday night at Great American Ball Park. It's quite a change for the Reds, who played their last two series against division leaders in the Brewers and Nationals.
The Reds lost their first seven games after the All-Star break and their offense was quiet again Sunday in a loss to the Nationals. In the second half, they've averaged 1.78 runs per game and have not plated more than three runs in a contest since scoring six against the Pirates on the final day of the first half.
A game-and-a-half out of first place in the tight NL Central two weeks ago, the Reds are now six games back of first-place Milwaukee and in fourth place -- making the upcoming stretch all the more important.
"We've still got two months left," said Reds third baseman Todd Frazier. "It's this stretch here where we win at all costs. It doesn't matter how you win; that's what you're here to do is win."
Homer Bailey will start for Cincinnati, and the right-hander is coming off a no-decision in his lone start since the All-Star break when he allowed three runs on four hits in six innings against the Brewers. Bailey has a 4.50 ERA in two career starts against the D-Backs, the only National League team in which Bailey has never registered a win.
Rookie right-hander Chase Anderson gets the ball for Arizona and is looking to build on back-to-back quality starts. Anderson went six innings in both of his last two starts, allowing just three earned runs and recording 13 strikeouts in that span.
Reds: Hannahan returns to lineup Sunday
Reds infielder Jack Hannahan went 0-for-4 in his first appearance of 2014 on Sunday against the Nationals.
The 34-year-old corner infielder -- who played first base and hit sixth -- played in the Majors for the first time this season after missing more than half of the season while recovering from offseason surgery he had on his right shoulder in October.
"It's exciting to get back out there and help these guys win," Hannahan said. "It's been frustrating with the setbacks and not being able to do my job, especially when they needed me to, filling in for the guys and giving guys a day off when they're banged up."
Reds reliever Curtis Partch was optioned to Louisville on Sunday to make room for Hannahan on the roster.
D-Backs: Ahmed gets nod three times in Philadelphia
Rookie shortstop Nick Ahmed started for the third consecutive time and knocked an RBI double in the second inning Sunday against the Phillies.
It's the first time Ahmed -- who was called up in late June -- has been in the starting lineup three times in a row, and the RBI was the second of his 14-game career. D-backs shortstop Chris Owings has missed a month with a bruised left shoulder, giving Ahmed some Major League opportunities.
A second-round pick by the Braves in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft, Ahmed is hitting .214 this season, but he has hit safely in six of his last seven starts.
Worth noting
• The next save for Reds closer Aroldis Chapman will be the 100th of his career. The hard-throwing lefty was selected as an All-Star this season and has a 2.30 ERA and 63 strikeouts in 31 games (31 1/3 innings).
• The D-backs are currently 10-11 in the month of July. They've only finished above .500 in one month this season when they went 14-13 in May.

Video: Installing an adapter for your steering wheel audio controls
It's easier than you think to keep the features you like
Robert Ferency-Viars is the managing editor for the Crutchfield car A/V learning content, and has been with the company since 1999. A Virginia native from the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, he loves spending time with his wonderful wife and sons, listening to music, writing, and playing games with friends. Robert's love for car audio began at 16 when he installed his first car stereo.
More from Robert Ferency-Viars
One of the problems with replacing your factory radio with a new receiver, is that those handy audio controls built into the steering wheel won't work anymore.
The way to solve this dilemma is to install an adapter for the steering wheel audio controls. Watch this video to see what's involved in the process.
Video Transcript
When you install a new stereo in your car, you lose the benefit of these the handy controls built into the steering wheel. That's because those are wired for the factory stereo and you can't just plug it into the back of the new stereo.
But what you can do is install a special adapter like this one, and that's what we're doing today. This adapter lets these controls interface with the new stereo so that you can use them just like you did before.
I did my homework for this installation and downloaded instructions directly from the Axxess website. On their site, you tell them what kind of vehicle you have and they'll tell you right up front whether their adapter works with your car. And from there it's step by step, wire by wire, what you need to do for the installation. I added the color coding just to help myself out a little bit.
I've disconnected the battery and I'm getting ready to pry open the dash panel so I can get the stereo out. That's what this puppy's for. Disconnecting the battery is important, and I want to note, for two reasons. One, I don't want to risk shorting something out so that my dash lights or stereo or A/C doesn't work. And two, there's an airbag sensor in this console and I don't want to mess with that, so I'm doing the job right.
I popped off the top panel, then removed a couple of screws and pulled off the main dash panel exposing the radio. Then four more screws out from the side of the radio and it's free. Now I can get to all the wiring. Next I'll take a look at the adapter. Opening the package I found the instruction manuals, a couple of wiring harnesses, and of course the adapter itself.
At first glance, this harness looks a little intimidating, but don't be afraid of it. You're not going to use all these wires. First, you'll have your power and ground, naturally, and then depending on your vehicle, you'll use one or two of these wires to connect. For example, my car will be using these two. The rest aren't used and I can just tape them up or cut them off, whatever I want to do.
That leaves this big black cable. This is the control cable that'll plug right into most stereos. Now mine is one of the brands that doesn't work that easily, so instead they include this adapter. I plug that in here and then connect one of these two brown wires to a wire that's already on the back of my stereo. Not that bad.
I used Posi-Tap connectors to make all the wiring connections between the adapter harness and my stereo. And now I'm going to re-install the stereo. So I plug this back in. And here's our new adapter and it's harness. Plug this guy in, there we go, and get that down there where I can reach it in a few minutes.
Okay now I'm going to re-install the stereo. Alright we've finished installing the stereo and the adapter, the dash is back together, and I've pushed the adapter out through the bottom of the dash so I can see it, because the next step is programming the adapter. It needs to know what kind of car it's in and what kind of stereo it's connected to. So to do that, I turn on the ignition and watch for the Axxess adapter to start flashing. Once it does, following the instructions, I hold down the volume button on the steering wheel and just wait as it runs through its paces figuring out everything it needs to know. And once the adapter's LED is on steady no longer flashing then it's done. After that it's a matter of testing the buttons to make sure they work. And they do.
And that's how you install a steering wheel control adapter. It took a little planning up front and being prepared, but it really wasn't that hard. I chose the Axxess adapter because it was able to program itself on its own, meaning it could figure out by itself which buttons on the steering wheel controlled which functions of the stereo, and that made the process a little easier.
Sometimes it's not able to figure that out, and you have to do it manually, so you have to go in and say "This button controls tracks. This button controls volume up, etc." Instructions for doing that are included, and it's not that hard. It's just another series of steps.
So here's the adapter at work changing volume on the disc. I can change tracks. It'll also let me go through sources. I'm really excited to have these buttons working again, and if you're going to do this in your car I strongly recommend you install the steering wheel adapter at the same time you change the stereo. It'll just save you a lot of work. When you're ready to do it, give us a call. Our advisors will make sure that you get the adapter that works with both your car and your brand of stereo.

Wheeler's debut to follow Harvey's start in twin bill
Braves counter with Wood's first career start, then Maholm in nightcap
In the wake of Monday's walk-off defeat to the Braves at Turner Field, the Mets could use a boost from the highly anticipated debut of top pitching prospect Zack Wheeler.
Wheeler, the sixth overall pick in the 2009 First-Year Player Draft, is scheduled to start the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader in Atlanta.
Mets fans have anticipated Wheeler's debut since he joined the organization in the deal that sent Carlos Beltran to San Francisco at the non-waiver Trade Deadline in 2011. Wheeler struck out 73 in 68 2/3 innings with Triple-A Las Vegas in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League this year, going 4-2 with a 3.93 ERA.
"I think it's going to be a day for the organization and our fans to get excited about," said Mets manager Terry Collins. "I just hope he settles down and pitches the way he's capable of pitching. If he pitches good, I think there's going to be a little gleam of sunlight here as everybody looks at the big picture of things down the road of what may be."
Wheeler is from Dallas, Ga., so he's expecting a large contingent of supporters to make the 45-minute drive to Atlanta from his hometown.
Mets ace Matt Harvey is scheduled to take the mound in the first game of the twin bill. Harvey had his franchise-record streak of 13 consecutive unbeaten starts to start the season snapped in his last outing, losing to the Cardinals to fall to 5-1 with a 2.04 ERA in 2013.
While overshadowed by Wheeler's debut, Braves left-hander Alex Wood will make his first Major League start in the opener. He's made six appearances out of the bullpen since he was called up May 30, and is looking forward to the opportunity to showcase his stuff against Harvey.
"He's been one of the best in baseball all year, so it's exciting to be out there surrounded by guys like that, especially pitching against them," Wood said. "Hopefully, I'll rise to the occasion. But that's definitely exciting."
Paul Maholm is lined up to take the mound for the Braves in the second game. The left-hander is 7-5 with a 3.65 ERA in 14 starts this year. Maholm is 6-3 with a 3.58 ERA in 13 career appearances against the Mets, including 12 starts.
Mets: Turner nursing intercostal strain
Justin Turner hasn't progressed from a left intercostal strain, and the Mets infielder could be placed on the disabled list as soon as Tuesday.
Turner had an MRI on Monday morning in New York before joining the club in Atlanta.
"He's just gotten worse the last couple days, so we had him looked at," Collins said.
The Mets need roster spots to make room for Wheeler and reliever Scott Atchison, and placing Turner on the disabled list would open one spot. The club is allowed to carry 26 players for previously-scheduled doubleheaders, thanks to an MLB rule.
Still, the Mets would have to make another roster move following the doubleheader.
Turner's average has dropped to .266 from .378 during an 8-for-50 slump. He's primarily been a first baseman, but has made spot starts at all four infield positions.
Atchison, on the DL since May 14 with right elbow inflammation, pitched consecutive scoreless innings with Double-A Binghamton over the weekend and is expected to be activated in time for Tuesday's doubleheader.
Braves: Beachy suffers minor setback
Atlanta right-hander Brandon Beachy had a minor setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery on Friday, eight days before the one-year anniversary of the surgical procedure.
An MRI on Beachy's right elbow revealed inflammation, but it showed no structural damage. He had been scheduled to start during Tuesday's doubleheader, so his return will be delayed. The Braves do not have a timetable for him to take the mound, though.
"That's what makes it even more frustrating," Beachy said. "But I've just got to keep working and remain focused on getting back out there."
Beachy, 26, said he experienced some stiffness around his pitching elbow during each of his last three Minor League rehab starts. The Braves had him undergo the MRI after he walked three and needed 69 pitches to complete three innings in what was supposed to be his final rehab outing for Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.
Worth noting
• Harvey has not faced the Braves since last August, when he was charged with two runs on two hits in six innings in a loss.
• The Braves are expected to call up reliever Cory Rasmus from Triple-A Gwinnett to fill the 26th spot on their roster for the doubleheader.

Obesity appears to impair normal muscle function in rats, an observation that could have significant implications for humans, according to Penn State researchers. "Our findings demonstrate that obesity involves more than accumulating excess fat and carrying excess weight," said Rudolf J. Schilder, American Physiological Society postdoctoral fellow in physiological genomics, Penn State College of Medicine. "We show that, during the development of obesity, skeletal muscles fail to adjust their molecular composition appropriately to the increasing body weight. Consequently, the muscles of obese mammals are not properly 'tuned' to the higher body weight they carry."

The Happy Drinking Bird is So Popular, We've Made it Our (Un)Official Mascot
The infamous Drinking Bird has been popular among children and adults for years. Once Drinking Bird's head is dunked in water, it will begin bobbing back and forth taking "drinks" with every bob.
Drinking Bird works using properties of thermodynamics, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy. The head and lower body of the bird are hollow glass chambers that are connected by a glass tube. The tube dips into the liquid (methylene chloride) in the lower body allowing the liquid to move up the tube when the temperature of the head is slightly cooler.
The head is coated with red felt that absorbs water with every drink. Evaporation, aided by the swinging motion, reduces the temperature of the head. The vapor from the liquid will subsequently condense in the head. This makes the pressure in the head slightly lower than in the body, and the liquid is pulled up the tube. The bird's center of gravity is altered as the liquid rises causing it to begin tilting toward the water and the bird takes a drink.
As the drinking bird tilts over, the liquid is eventually removed from the lower body and the lower portion of the tube. The vapor above the liquid then rushes up the tube which equalizes the pressure in the head and body. With this, the center of gravity returns to the lower body and with one swift motion, the bird swings back up away from the water.
Drinking Bird comes wearing a blue hat and red feet. The liquid comes in red or blue. Please let us select the color for you. *Caution: If broken, dye will stain!
Please note this product is not a toy and is not intended for use by children under age 8. Contains methylene chloride and may stain clothing and other surfaces. Do not swallow liquid or allow to come in contact with eyes or skin. Non-flammable. Keep away from flame or other heat sources. If shipping to AK or HI, additional hazard fees may apply. Item cannot be expedited and cannot ship to a PO Box.
WARNING: Choking Hazard - Contains small parts. Not suitable for children under 3 years.

Get More Out of Your Employee Training
You've got great content for training. Well and good. But don't let it go to waste by messing up the presentation, delivery and other factors that affect the effectiveness of your training.
Help maximize the impact of your employee training with these tips:
- Set your training objectives.
Clear goals help determine what content you present and how, and how you can measure its effectiveness. Also, goals tell participants what's expected of them, and why exactly they must undergo a particular training session. - Strive for 10-20 per group.
This is the ideal range. The bigger the group, the more likely individual attention may be lost. A smaller group can help induce participants to pay attention, not least because it's easier to see if they are not listening! But more importantly, a smaller group can encourage engagement, if not interest. Perhaps your employees are uncomfortable speaking in front of a large group. At any rate, fewer people can help training sessions seem less impersonal. » Read more

The Education of an Ecomodernist
From Eco-Romanticism to Radical Pragmatism
Environmentalism came readily to many of us who grew up on the mushrooming fringes of major metropolitan areas in the 1960s. I grew up in Walnut Creek, some 25 miles east of San Francisco, amidst a patchwork of new housing tracts and old orchards: prime playgrounds for boyhood adventure. My friends and I found our paradise along the Walnut Creek, a modest stream with a few passable swimming holes and a surprisingly rich array of wildlife.
But as I grew older, the orchards steadily gave way to yet more housing tracts while Walnut Creek itself was turned into a nearly lifeless concrete channel by the Army Corps of Engineers. Suburbs like Walnut Creek, which had promised the best of urban amenities and rural repose as the epochal decade began, had by its end come to seem grimly conformist. The transformation of formerly pleasant and diverse outskirts into manicured tracts of generic houses molded by the automobile seemed emblematic of modernity gone astray in its unthinking devotion to progress

Linaro 12.8 is using GCC4.6 . That automatically makes the comparison with ubuntu 12.10 null.
Phoronix: Linaro 12.08 ARM OMAP4 Performance
The Linaro organization offers monthly builds of Android and Ubuntu for their member SoC vendors, but are these Linaro-optimized Ubuntu builds any faster than the normal Ubuntu for ARM images? Here are some benchmarks of Linaro 12.08 compared to recent upstream Ubuntu Linux releases.
Linaro 12.8 is using GCC4.6 . That automatically makes the comparison with ubuntu 12.10 null.
I have yet to see a benchmark where Linaro is actually significantly faster across the board. Installed a linaro kernel for my Galaxy Nexus once and could not measure any improvements either.
I learned very recently, that Linaro's goal is to 'collect and improve' arm for upstream.
As far as Ubuntu-arm is concern, I was also made to belive, that Linaro is basically responsible for the Ubuntu-arm images? So thus should perform identical

550 horsespower, 157 mph after 220 yards
August 17, 2006 When we saw the results from round six of the 2006 AMA Prostar Drag Racing Champs held at the weekend, we just had to mention them. Not that there's anything technologically groundbreaking going on, just our continued amazement at what's possible given a ten year-old engine, a turbocharger and a spot of engenuity. The Honda CBR 1100 XX started production in 1997 as the fastest street bike available at that time, and it still sells new for less than a Honda Jazz, despite the fact it produces 164 horsepower, will touch 180 mph on a long straight road with a tail wind, and cuts a quarter mile in 10.3 seconds. On the weekend, riding a modified CBR1100XX, Kent Stotz equalled the Pro Street ET record of 7.33 ET and set an official 1/8-mile top speed class record of 157.90 mph. For the jargon uninitiated, that means he was travelling at 157 mph after just 220 yards. How much power does the bike produce from its 1137 cc motor? More than 550-plus horsepower.

Someobdy who doesn't smoke cigarettes. Straight-edge, health nut, or just regular people. Can be annoying for smokers as they hack and cough and complain when someone lights a cigarette within 100 feet.
As we all know, non-smokers are not cool, because they do not smoke. They say smoking causes wrinkles, well so does being a fucking nazi bitch!

Anyone who doesn't smoke. Usually very arrogent and ignorant in their opinion. Generally, they make it a hobby to be as ignorant as possible to smokers. Tend to believe they're superior and better than smokers. Also, a majority have never smoked therefore can not understand it from a smokers point of view, but their arrogence blinds them of this. Their arrogence also blinds of the fact that the air in any decent sized city isn't much cleaner.
He doesn't smoke, therefore he's a non smoker.
