Finally i've got a solution for me:
I've gone to the store, have returned the ati card and i've got a new nvidia 8800 gt, that's it
oblivious_maximus, have you already tried removing all the mtrr and other changes and just limiting memory usage to 3.5GB or so with the "mem=" boot command ? I don't know the details but apparently this has worked for a few people here. Having the SBIOS properly remap RAM is best but that doesn't seem to be available to everyone on the current generation of motherboards ;(
EDIT - just found your other post where you asked for details on how to use the mem= line, and of course now I can't find any of the original posts by other people who had success with it. Auggh.
Anyways, I would start with something simple like "mem=3000M" and see how that works.

I removed the script I was using to alter the mtrr, and I tried booting with mem=3072. free reported the correct amount of limited RAM, but the mtrr was exactly the same as before. I'm not sure what you mean by 'other changes.'I also tried specifying that vesafb not use the mtrr. These are the kernel options I've used:Code:reg00: base=0x00000000 ( 0MB), size=2048MB: write-back, count=1 reg01: base=0x80000000 (2048MB), size=1024MB: write-back, count=1 reg02: base=0xc0000000 (3072MB), size= 256MB: write-back, count=1 total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 3043 201 2842 0 1 95 -/+ buffers/cache: 103 2940 Swap: 509 0 509
video=vesafb:nomtrr vga=791
video=vesafb:mtrr:0 vga=791
video=vesafb:nomtrr vga=791 mem=3072
I'm going to post this and try just mem=3072 now.. will edit shortly.
I just wasn't sure if you made any other changes; all these threads are starting to blur together
Sorry if I missed something, but are you having trouble running vesafb as well, not just fglrx ?
no, I just read (in some probably way out of date google hits) that there have been issues with vesafb only allotting a bare minimum of the actual available memory for its register. It's supposed to be write-combining though and I've never seen anything but write-back registers listed. I'm grasping at straws basically. Before that post I had just been using vga=791 so I figured I would mention the difference.
Apart from patching authatieventsd.sh when I install fglrx I can't think of any other changes I've been making.
I'm just back from trying only the mem=3072M option, with no others (apart from ro). There was no change to my mtrr registers so I tried it with mem=2560M and it's still exactly the same:To be clear I haven't plugged my 3650 in again since the post you were originally replying to bridgman(#18). It's(the mtrr) wrong (it is isn't it??) in exactly the same way with both cards, only the Nvidia card doesn't seem to care (I also read on some google hit that Nvidia doesn't use the mtrr with their driver so I guess that's why).Code:reg00: base=0x00000000 ( 0MB), size=2048MB: write-back, count=1 reg01: base=0x80000000 (2048MB), size=1024MB: write-back, count=1 reg02: base=0xc0000000 (3072MB), size= 256MB: write-back, count=1 total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 2535 200 2334 0 1 95 -/+ buffers/cache: 103 2432 Swap: 509 0 509

My thinking was more along the lines of "ignore the mtrr's, boot with everything stock except the mem= kernel option and see if the card works "
Let me go through the thread again. I came in part way through and thought you were just wrestling with the usual "64 bit, >3GB RAM, graphics unhappy, no BIOS upgrade" blues.
Oh OK. Sorry for the absence of details, they are certainly spread out over the forum. My system specs are detailed in the first post of this thread, apart from the kernel/OS and videocard.
I'm using an Asus 8600GT and trying to replace it with a Sapphire HD3650 w/512MB ddr3 (the blue one reviewed here back when it was hot off the fab). I'm running Debian Lenny i386 now (which I think I mention at the end of that thread), with a bigmem kernel I built from Debian sources, version 2.6.25-4 (I generally just build the newest linux-source version when apt updates it). I remove a lot of hardware I don't have and Infinniband -type stuff, but my kernel is pretty much Debian defaults. That thread is another reason I don't really trust my motherboard to be properly functional, but I don't think there'd be much use in you reading it past my system specs.
Short summary of my HD3650 woes:
I originally (with fglrx 8-3 when I first bought it) had trouble logging out of KDE or starting Xservers additional to my KDE session (KDE on display :0.0, empty Xserver on dispaly :1.0), which both result in a big lockup. And that's what I've been dealing with ever since. zappbrannigan pointed out my mtrr might be the issue over a month ago. That and editing authatieventsd.sh to point to /var/run/xauth are the only leads I've had, the atieventsd change has no effect and I haven't been able to sort out /fully understand the mtrr yet. The mtrr changes I detailed in post #18 produced the first change in behaviour using the HD3650, but they're not an improvement.
Another reason I'm chasing this mtrr now is because everything resembling a guide I've looked at suggests removing all the registers before building them back up. As I mentioned in post #18, when I try to remove the first register my system locks up almost as badly as when logging out with fglrx (I can resuce it with the SysReq key at least). edit: maybe this is because I removed register 02 and 01 first? I'll try this too I guess...
I'll try the HD3650 and fglrx with mem=3072 and no other boot options now...

Ahh, OK that helps. I wouldn't have thought those issues were related to each other, and neither of them sounds like mtrr-related problems.I originally (with fglrx 8-3 when I first bought it) had trouble logging out of KDE or starting Xservers additional to my KDE session (KDE on display :0.0, empty Xserver on dispaly :1.0), and that's what I've been dealing with ever since.
There seem to be a few issues related to atieventsd, where different distros have different issues with the file. In some cases the contents need to be changed, and in others the permissions need to be changed (at least that's what I've seen so far).
re: starting a second X server, I'm not sure but I kinda thought we like to support multiple displays with a single server instance not multiple servers on the same card. Let me check that.
The multiple display setup I use should be driver independent if I'm not mistaken. I just use X's ability to launch new dispalys to different display devices. My xorg.conf defines a default ServerLayout which uses my monitor for display :0.0, and another ServerLayout that doesn't get used unless called manually with "X :1.0 -layout layoutname". The device section for my TV uses Nvidia's xorg.conf options for tvout (this is the only involvement of the Nvidia driver), in my xorg.conf for use with the ATI card I believe I have ATI equivalents of those config options in the TV's device section, but since it keeps locking up I can't really tell. I make use of this setup with a script I set Konqueror to open video files with, it launches the new xserver and then MPlayer with the video, and when MPlayer quits it kills the second Xserver. My monitor shuts off when the second Xserver launches (I can VT-switch between them) and it comes back up when the second Xserver is killed.
I'm pretty sure I've tried launching that second Xserver without involving my TV (just running "X :1.0") and had it lock up(this was with 8-3 probably), I'll try it again next time.
I just tried runing the HD3650 with no kernel boot options apart from "ro mem=3072M", it still locked up when I logged out.
I have previously tried the 3650 with only 2GB of RAM installed and it locked up then too...

Sorry to jump in. But I've got a similar/same problem. Thought I would mention what I've tried. I can post log files (or links to log files upon request).
My system setup
Intel Q9450 (Stock speeds)
Asus P5K-E/Wifi
4GB of PC2-8500 (G.Skill Memory)
HIS 3870 (512MB 3870 AMD/ATi Graphics Card)
The memory restriction option doesn't work if memory remapping is enabled (even if the amount of memory is less than the 32-bit maximum memory). I've tried using all the drivers from 8.3 till 8.5 and there is no improvement. Since it appears that the driver itself is crashing I can't produce a backtrace (or a core file).
Most of the information is documented here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...24/+bug/224404

Crim Trial Advcy (LAW-694-004)
Aaronson, Lippy
Co-req: Criminal Procedure & Evidence
Criminal Trial Advocacy courses are based on trial simulations, practical instruction, learning by doing, and feedback from faculty and fellow students. The courses focus on case theory, trial strategy and tactics, opening statements, examination of witnesses, and closing arguments. In these courses student-attorneys try three fictitious cases. Students try the final case in a courtroom before a real judge and jury panel of undergraduate students. Cases are tried under the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and Evidence. Each section has two instructors, a judge and a law professor or attorney experienced in litigation. Special features of these classes are in-class discussions by a professional actor on the use of techniques to communicate more effectively and a homicide detective on the basics of criminal investigations. Criminal Procedure and Evidence are pre- or co-requisites for Criminal Trial Advocacy

I fly about twice a month, so along with these that Ms. Manners posts, I have my own set of rules which I follow when travelling. One or two might be repetitions, but these are my golden rules...
1. Wear clean and comfortable clothing. A pair of jeans, a polo shirt and comfortable footwear like sneakers or loafers are my attire for travelling, especially on trans-oceanic/continental journeys. I don't like to dress up when travelling, nor do I like how I look if I dress down. This is a reasonable middle ground for me.
2. This one's for males, but be clean-shaven and have your hair cut. My passport photo has me as clean-shaven, I want to get through passport control (if necessary) as quick as possible and with as little hassle as possible. You also look presentable to airport staff and will be taken more seriously in the event of a delay or something else...
3. Take a shower before you get on board for the first leg. This goes hand in hand with my next point.
4. Wear deodorant. I don't like to sit beside anyone who has body odour, and I don't think my seatmate would enjoy it if I had it. Besides, I might be sitting beside a pretty lady and would like to strike up a conversation! If I perspire too much for whatever reason, I also carry a stick in my carry-on to ensure that the bad odour is short-lived. I don't think I need to point out that it has to be applied in the lavatory of the aircraft...
5. When the flight attendant speaks to you, calmly respond with a smile and basic manners like saying "please" and "thank you."
6. Do not take off your shoes! It's not about foot odour, but the fact that aircraft floors are filthy!
7. Carry an indoor jacket with you. It doesn't have to be a sportcoat, but something to cover yourself if it gets too cold on the aircraft.
JUDITH MARTIN, a.k.a. "Miss Manners", weighed in this week on a topic close to Gulliver's heart: bad manners in the airport and on the plane. It seems the only thing needed to pitch normally civilised people into barbarism is a trip to the airport, where people begin jumping queues, pushing and shoving, and generally behaving in all sorts of nasty ways. In any case, witness the righteousness of Miss Manners's fury:
Miss Manners would not have thought that sitting next to one's travelling companions, reclining, being able to lower one's tray, storing hand luggage, dozing and going to the bathroom were outrageous expectations. But since aeroplanes have been refitting the interiors to make these things difficult, and selling marginal improvements, the passengers are at one another's mercy.
A pleasant travelling experience depends on the kindness and good manners of everyone involved. When you're on a 747, that can be quite a lot of people. Obviously airline staff can try to enforce social norms, but there's only so much they can do short of kicking a passenger off a plane. That means it's up to us. Here are a few suggestions that I'm sure nobody will follow:
- Only stand up and wait to board the plane once your zone number is called. This will prevent the usual chaos at the boarding line.
- Know the size of your suitcase and don't put it in the overhead bin sideways when it can go in wheels- or handle-first.
- Step out of the aisle as quickly as possible to expedite boarding and let other people through.
- On full flights, don't put your coat, jacket, or small suitcase in the overhead bin until everyone has boarded. If you don't follow this rule, you're going to end up delaying the whole plane while the flight attendants roam the aisle looking for extra space for rolling bags—and you'll probably end up with your jacket in your lap anyway.
- If you're not going to lean on the window or someone you know while you sleep, lean forward onto the tray table. Don't fall asleep in a position where you risk ending up in your neighbour's lap.
- Please don't push and shove.
- Don't shout or speak loudly—but don't stare at or shame the parents who can't keep their baby quiet. It's hard work. Bring headphones or earplugs.
- Treat flight attendants and other airline employees with respect. They've had long days, too.
This is all basic stuff, but too often it gets neglected. In fact there's scope for Miss Manners to write about aeroplane etiquette every week.

SUGAR RUSH I must admit that I am really mad about myself right now, I never miss my monday post but this week-end and week has been quite crazy so at least for health matters, I decided to use the free time James and I had left to sleep, which ended up to be a really good decision, my body definitely said thank you. It's amazing how there's some extremely full times of the year where you gotta rush from one place to another or study like a book-a-holic (because all the controls are stuck in one month) and then much more relaxed ones. In this case, let's just say that it has been quite exciting yet a little overwhelming since it demands a very good organisation and that I sometimes prefer watching TBBT instead of opening my laptop or agenda. So basically, we just came back from a great trip to Gstaad with Louis Vuitton, we were working an awesome project during two days. And it's a little secret, so James and I couldn't show you the pictures we shot. Today we are on our way to Milan to attend the Guess fashion show and then the Gala. Not to mention that last week we held the DIIO Senses cocktail in Lausanne, fabulous event where I had the chance to meet some of you guys. It was an amazing experience and I hope you all had a lot of fun.
I am anyways looking forward to Christmas, and feel the need to spend some cozy time with my family at home around a nice meal. And let's not even mention New Year's Eve, that's going to be a great celebration. Do you folks have some interesting things planned? Since I didn't have much time to prepare pictures for a story article, I wanted to share with you guys some of my highlight instagram pictures, just because I know that some of you don't have an Iphone or Android so that way you can all also enjoy some pictures I take every single day through the little camera of my mobile phone. Lots of kisses and see you soon (can't wait to show you all the amazing shots we took, just need to find a quiet moment to edit!).

The 9th Annual Lonestar Rod 'N' Kustom Round Up
Written by on November 1, 2010 If One Picture's Worth A Thousand Words ...What can be said about the Lonestar Round Up-Austin, Texas' pride and joy of an annual "to do"-that hasn't already been put in print, or uttered from one person to the next, for that matter? Nothing. It's without a doubt one of the nation's best hot rod and custom events, and while it's hard to come up with anything new to describe it in words, the images captured from the various goings-on-morning, noon, or night-ought to do more than serve it justice. So that's exactly how we're paying homage to this year's Round Up-in living color ... with a little black-and-white thrown in for seasoning. Enjoy! (For information on the 10th Annual Lonestar Round Up, April 15-17, 2011, visit www.lonestarroundup.com.)

My block is #469, "Cathedral Square." (The inspiration for the name of this block comes from one of my favorite areas of downtown Milwaukee.) Yes, you will have to piece some flying geese in order to make this block. But yes, these flying geese are worth it! At least, I think so.
My quilt features 20 Cathedral Square blocks (two of them are cut in half) and measures 48" by 60". That's 160 flying geese units, in case you were wondering. : ) I used Flea Market Fancy, Farmdale, and other fun vintage-modern prints.
And check out some of the other tweaks you can use to make this block your own. Here it is with print squares in the outer block corners, instead of the background solid:
With half-square triangles in the outer block corners, instead of the background solid:
With the blocks set on point:
Yep, I could show you design options all day long. : ) But I won't, because here's where I give away a free copy of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, Volume 5. To enter, just leave a comment on this post. Any old comment is fine—although if you already have special plans for the Cathedral Square block, or a particular fabric line in mind for it, I would love to hear about it. I'll draw a random winner on Monday morning.
And in the meantime, be sure to visit Quiltmaker's blog, Quilty Pleasures, for lots more prizes and a list of all the designers participating in the Volume 5 blog hop (everybody's giving away a copy of the magazine, so there are lots of chances to win this amazing block resource!) Thanks for visiting!
This giveaway is now CLOSED.

These are the sunglasses worn by U.S. Army AH-64 Apache Helicopter pilots. Made by a supplier to the U.S. military for more than 30 years, the sunglasses feature the iconic aviator shape and a non-corroding nickel silver frame. The scratch- and impact-resistant lenses are made from the same distortion-free mineral glass used on watch faces, and their grey tint provides the truest perception of colors, ideal for reading maps and identifying landmarks. The non-polarized surface, recommended for helicopter and airplane pilots, is essential for deciphering dashboard instruments, which are often outfitted with antiglare filters. The glasses also block 98% of harmful UV rays. Silicone nose pads prevent slipping, and the temple tips are encased in clear plastic to provide comfort from takeoff to landing. With semi-rigid case, microfiber cloth, and maintenance kit. 5 1/2" L x 5 1/2" W x 1 3/4" D. (8 oz.)
"I love the glasses no glare from the sun ,clear view, there lightweight there great." - M, New York

A picture that is not what I bought
By john ex military
from Haverhill,Ma
I really like the theory of the lenses.My only problem is the size of the lenses. To me, the picture doesn't look like what I received. I bought a similar pair when I was in the military and the lenses were a lot smaller with the same nose support and same ear arms. I really don't like big lenses however, I like what they do for my eyes.
Very Cool
By GTR Man
from Ontario, Canada
These are very decent sunglasses. They're light and comfortable. There is ZERO lens distortion and they offer style and class to anyone who wears them.Generously supplied are a mini screwdriver kit, spare screws and nose pads, a quality leather re-enforced case, and a nice polishing cloth. I could not be happier.
Great quality!
By Pilot's Wife
from Coconut Creek, FL
My husband is a private pilot and I got them for him for his birthday. He said they were very comfortable and actually made everything appear clearer. He's going to keep them in the case in his plane and use them whenever he flies which is weekly! He loves them.

By Bob

I use my sunglasses every day and I am very happy with the quality of the product and how they fit. My assistant says that I look like a "million dollars" -- GREAT! I also like to wear them because I am able to see well even on a cloudy day! I am a very satisfied customer!
Apache Helicopter Pilot's Sunglasses
By Greg
from Frisco, TX
I use them for driving, as I can now see the instrument panel in my Volvo, whereas most sunglasses are worthless in that regard. They are also great for general outdoor use.
Outstanding product

Where are the beers consumed per hour in beanbag benchmarks?
Phoronix: Sumo Lounge Titan
Taking a break from the usual plethora of Linux benchmarks, delivering the news about Dirndl, and providing other Linux hardware reviews and news, to end out the week is a look at the Titan from Sumo Lounge. Weighing over 35 kilograms, this is one of the heaviest products that we have reviewed at Phoronix.
Where are the beers consumed per hour in beanbag benchmarks?
> Kilograms, More Are Better

===============================35== Sumo Lounge Titan

How's the power consumption going in and out of standby?
Oh no! Michael is on meth again!
$379 for a beanbag?! When I was in college those things cost about ten bucks at Target. I know the dollar has gone in the toilet since then, but still, $379 is a simply ridiculous sum of money for a beanbag. You can get a much nicer, more comfortable, and probably even heavier easy chair/recliner for that kind of money.
Personally, I was disappointed with the article title. I was expecting some monstrosity of a server, multi-headed display, or a massive computer case to be reviewed. The last computer case I got was just about the same shipping size and weight of the beanbag, but cost about a hundred bucks less. I was hoping to see it be reviewed since it is a neat piece of equipment, but nope, we get a review of a beanbag chair. And it's a pretty skimpy review with no benchmarks. How about some benchmarks of number of times the chair gets plopped into before the beans start popping out and blowing around the room?
only 2 beers per hour but only if you drink very slowly...

WASHINGTON -- The federal health care exchange was built using 10-year-old technology that may require constant fixes and updates for the next six months and the eventual overhaul of the entire system, technology experts told USA TODAY.
"The application is fundamentally flawed," said Jeff Kim, president of CDNetworks, a content-delivery network. "They're probably using 1990s technology in 7.0 world."
Recent changes have made the exchanges easier to use, but they still require clearing the computer's cache several times, stopping a pop-up blocker, talking to people via web chat who suggest waiting until the server is not busy, opening links in new windows and clicking on every available possibility on a page in the hopes of not receiving an error message. With those changes, it took one hour to navigate the HealthCare.gov enrollment process Wednesday.
Those steps shouldn't be necessary, experts said.
"I have never seen a website - in the last five years - require you to delete the cache in an effort to resolve errors," said Dan Schuyler, a director at Leavitt Partners, a health care group by former Health and Human Services secretary Mike Leavitt. "This is a very early web 1.0 type of fix."
The site could be perfect, but if the systems from which it draws data are not up to speed, it doesn't matter, said John Engates, chief technology officer at Rackspace, a cloud computer service provider.
"It is a core problem in the sense of it's fundamental to this thing actually working, but it's not necessarily a problem that the people who wrote HealthCare.gov can get to," Engates said. "Even if they had a perfect system, it still won't work."
Outsiders acknowledged they can't see the whole system, but they said they feared HHS built a system that will need an expensive overhaul that would cause more headaches for people trying to buy insurance.
HHS did not respond to a request about the nature of the problems. However, they reiterated that wait times have been reduced or even eliminated as they continue to work to fix the system. They have added capacity so more people may use the site at the same time, and they moved one component from virtual space to actual hardware to reduce bugs. As of Wednesday, they did not have an update on numbers.
"I will be the first to tell you that the web site launch was rockier than we wanted it to be,'' HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Wednesday at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, adding that people have until Dec. 15 to enroll to ensure coverage beginning Jan. 1.
Engates said HHS has been opaque about the problems, and the tech industry doesn't know the extent of the issues. "There's no secrets leaking out," he said. "I'm sure everyone's looking for something to change the direction of the conversation, but it's just not there."
"I think it's a data problem," Kim said. "It always comes down to that."
And if that's the case, the problems are beyond "rocky," he said. Instead, it would require a "fundamental rearchitecture." In the meantime, "I think they're just trying to shore up as quickly as possible. They don't have time to start from scratch."
"If I was them, and I'm just conjecturing, I would probably come up with some manual way of saying, 'Only people with the last name starting with 'a' can sign up today," he said.
But come March 31, when the first enrollment period ends, the "shore up" period may become a "rearchitecting" period, Kim said.
On a good note, he said, after looking at available code, the site is "very secure."
Clearing the cache, which has helped make it easier for some people to enroll, could ultimately strain the system more, Kim aid. That's because a "cookie" is stored on a person's computer that contains data, such as the person's name and address, that can then be quickly accessed when that person gets on the website again instead of having to be retrieved from the government's server.
But as HHS fixes errors, the cookies may not correspond with the updated website, so rather than allowing someone to quickly log in, they instead cause an error message. And every time a person clears his computer's cache, the government's website has to work that much harder to grab more data.
Requiring people who may not be web savvy to use the site in any way other than a step-by-step easy process defeats the point of the whole system, Schuyler said. That includes laws mandating that insurers provide clear explanations about policies to people may make sound decisions and understand what they're buying.
"Most consumers will have no idea what 'clearing the cache' is and this will just cause more confusion and frustration," he said.
Engates said he believes most of the problems are caused by systems integration with other sites, such as the IRS. And that could be causing some of the problems people see as they make it past the initial application process. It's a series of questions meant to verify a person's identity and income. But after that questionnaire, visitors often encounter a series of error messages, or the page a person tries to click to doesn't come up. The data requests to other sites could be causing those problems, Engates said, which would mean the problem isn't with the HHS site itself.
"Maybe the site is submitting a request for more data, and that puts you in that trap again," he said. "It's a giant integration problem that they have to solve."
And as they try to fix those problems, there's another issue lurking in the background: Some HHS personnel were named essential, and not subject to furloughs because of the government shutdown. But that didn't apply to the other organizations they were working with, Engates said. So as HHS techs work around the clock to fix the problems, IRS techs may be prohibited from working at all.
In the meantime, HHS personnel can't say anything about the situation, it can be played politically as "bad," he said. If they say it will take two weeks to fix, they will be criticized because it's taking too long. But he expects that it's a problem that will be resolved soon, especially as the volume of visitors goes down.
"If you can get the system below some sort of threshold, it will perform as it's supposed to," Engates said. "It won't get any worse. It's going to get better little by little by little."

Riley Rey is all about cum play. For a naughty blonde teen slut like Riley the sex is only an appetizer because the main course of carnal enjoyment can\'t begin until she has a sticky white load spewed all over her chin. She\'ll suck it and fuck it for as long as it takes, but you can see in her eyes she has only one thing on her mind the whole time. As soon as your jizz splashes against her grinning cheeks and smiling lips she finally seems to find peace within herself.
For Riley Cum Is More Than A Result - It\'s a Reward!

text: Hers the deal, It is obvious that These cams are only for lining the pockets of those who are getting kick backs from the money made, ie. Scottesdale $800:000 in one year. If that is the case then fire two copes for every cam since we don't need them and they can eat their doughnuts at home. But most important is that driving should now be a right and to allow the MVD to dictate weather or not I can drive myself or a family member to the emergency room or to work or to get food for the babies is un American. Any one who believes that we shouldn't have the right to drive should get out of the USA. Its Big Brother just wanting to be in our business because its a drug to them. Do you realy think that those pics just go away. Does NSA mean anything. Get 30 or 40 of your friends with masks and coverd lic plates and all of you speed through a cam. Be safe though, and let the light show begin

UKIP is the most stupid Illusion the Brits can have.
I bought my first House 1976 in London and whenever Road workers cam to dig a hole to fix the Water pipes etc it took them several days sometimes weeks.
Now, with workers from Poland, Russia and Eastern Europe, it take 1-2 hours at the most and not half a day and this jobs are fixed and done with.
Get more of this Eastern Europeans to Britain and we can compete again with first world Countries!

Overlooking one of the Emirate's greatest tourist attractions, Ski Dubai, the location of this bar was always a given, its patrons enjoying the bird's-eye view of daredevil skiers as they catapult down the slopes. This is a welcoming bar, with good atmosphere, views and food (try the pizzas, or better still, the fondue), plus great booths, cocktails and bottled beers.
It's a great après-ski lounge; the ideal venue for a very chilled-out crowd, some of whom have just come off the slopes, others fresh out of the cinema, while others sit clutching huge pint glasses trying not to think about how much money their other half is spending in the attached mall.
Address: Near Ski Dubai, in Mall of the Emirates, Sheikh Zayed Road.
Opening hours: Daily 12:00 to 02:00.

Please pray for our friend, Jim from Altoona PA who suffered a stroke recently. He says his typing and speech are affected. "As it is written in Psalm 91.11,' for God commands the angels to guard us in all of our ways,' please restore Jim to health so he can go on annoying and banning everyone in sight. Amen."
He says he'll be back soon, but prayers would be appreciated! Thanks!

2 leveling legs on a range had been damaged by tilting the appliance the plastic threads were broken William R. • Cary, NC • June 28, 2014 My Repair & Advice The problem was partly caused because the original legs were at full extension. The replacement legs were longer than the originals and were more secure at the needed length. One difficulty was that the threaded base plate where the legs screwed in had been damaged and had to be reshaped, I was able to reshape the sockets with some effort, to allow the legs to thread in, though one remained slightly angled. (A metal tool of some type which could be threaded in and used to bend the socket area to the correct angle would be useful; the plastic legs aren't strong enough to do bending of the bottom plate.) Had to raise the range up on blocks to be able to work on the bottom plate sockets. Replacing the legs was easy, fixing the sockets for them was challenging! Was this review helpful to you?

The Very Rev. Anis Elias fell asleep in the Lord on Sunday, December 22, 2013 at the age of 92. He was born in Saain, Syria in 1921 to Michael Elias and Jamileh Yousif Makhoul, the only son of four children. Father Anis was ordained to the priesthood in 1948 in Syria. In November of 1961, Fr. Anis immigrated to Detroit, Michigan and on June 9, 1962 was assigned to St. Michael Orthodox Church in Monessen, PA. He served as the priest of St. Michael's for 25 years before retiring.
After his retirement, Fr. Anis moved back to Michigan to be near his family. In February of 1988, he came out of retirement to serve ten years at St. Mary Orthodox Church in Berkley, MI and in Windsor, Canada before his final retirement in July of 1999. However, he continued to serve at the request of Very Rev. George Shalhoub of St. Mary in Livonia, MI, as well as assisting with Fr. George Baalbaki in St. Mary, Berkley.

The 2014 Run for FOCUS is a benefit organized by the Orthodox Christian communities of the San Francisco Bay Area to raise money and awareness for Operation Lace Up, a program of FOCUS North America (Fellowship of Orthodox Christians United to Serve). The RUN is scheduled for Saturday, March 22, 2013 at Lake Merced in San Francisco, CA.
Through Operation Lace Up, FOCUS has partnered with a major American shoe company to distribute thousands of new athletic shoes to impoverished children in 28 metropolitan areas across the United States. Support raised through the 2014 Run for FOCUS will allow FOCUS to continue maintaining Operation Lace Up and similar programs that provide aid to children living in poverty stricken communities across the United States.
The impact that a pair of shoes can make in a child's health and educational development is pivotal, as many children are unable to attend school simply because of a lack of shoes. Through this program, and with the help of public school districts across America, hundreds of thousands of children affected by homelessness and poverty will receive two pairs of brand new shoes per year.

Click on graphic to download and viewAt the end of this calendar year, the Orthodox Christian Prison Ministry (OCPM) has published a report summarizing the activities of the ministry throughout the course of 2013. Titled "OCPM's 2013 Impact Report," it shows at a glance the many ways in which OCPM reached out to those behind bars during the last twelve months.
Their Website explains, "As 2013 draws to a close, we share with you our recent report highlighting the impact of OCPM's programs on those in prison and their families....We feel blessed to say that we have witnessed as one Orthodox community how the Lord Jesus Christ has transformed lives.
"We look forward to 2014, when we will launch some wonderful new programs that will involve your communities, families and churches. These programs will allow us to share the Faith with more people and draw new volunteers into our ministry."

Ancient Faith Radio (AFR) recently introduced several new podcasts. A Spanish-language podcast features homilies by Fr. Nicholas Andruchow, the priest of the only Orthodox orphanage in North America. Every Sunday Fr. Nicholas offers the homily at the St. Innocent Orphanage for boys. This is the opportunity to reflect on the Gospel from the point of view of Orthodox Christianity in Latin America," notes the AFR Website about Hasta la Gloria. "Through God's grace this will help you ascend to the heavens."
Another new podcast was launched in cooperation with Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF). Titled Sowing Seeds: Building Orthodox Campus Ministry, the episodes promise to help listeners "learn about the leadership, vision, and direction of the OCF with Executive Director Jennifer Nahas and AFR host John Maddex."
Carole Buleza, Director of the Department of Christian Education for the Antiochian Archdiocese, reflected on the Orthodox Institute 2013 in the December, 2013 edition of The Word magazine.
Beloved in Christ,
I write these words just after the 2013 Orthodox Institute at Antiochian Village. The fellowship and book-signings were a chance to get to know and speak with some of the prominent people in the Orthodox Church. The presentations were truly educational and inspirational. An eight-panel display of "Art and Symbols of the Catacombs" shed light on the images that were most important to the early Christians. All together it was a memorable and valuable weekend.
Almost a hundred people participated in The Orthodox Institute at Antiochian Village, October 31 – November 3, 2013. The theme was "Blessed is the Kingdom: Acts 2:42 and Today," and the goal was to answer the question, "Can we revive the spirit of giving for which the early church was known?"
Listen to OCN's firsthand account of the Syrian humanitarian crisis
Syrian refugee in Lebanon (photo: Thomas Lohnes/DKH)December 16, 2013 Baltimore, Maryland (IOCC)
Nisrine, 23, a Syrian refugee, huddles with her heavily bundled newborn daughter next to the welcome warmth of a propane stove provided by International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC). Winter storms brought heavy snow and frigid temperatures to northern Lebanon's Bekaa Valley where thousands of Syrian refugee families live in flimsy vinyl tents or tenement buildings that are little more than concrete shells with no electricity or water. Lebanon has no designated refugee camps in spite of the estimated 840,000 Syrians who fled there to escape the civil war raging in their homeland. The severe winter weather and lack of adequate shelter leaves vulnerable families with young children exposed to the elements and threatens their health and well-being.
IOCC, an ACT Alliance member, is responding now to the urgent needs of 900 Syrian refugee families living in Lebanon's coldest regions with the distribution of stoves and fuel for heating and cooking. IOCC is also providing new refugee mothers like Nisrine with pre and post natal care as well as health care for refugee infants and young children under five years of age.
Since March 2012, IOCC has provided humanitarian relief to more than 890,000 Syrian people displaced in their own country or living as refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq and Armenia. For more information, contact: Rada K. Tierney, IOCC Media Relations, 443-823-3489
On Friday, December 6, 2013, Metropolitan Philip issued a letter which was read on the following Sunday in all the parishes of the Antiochian Archdiocese. In it, he expressed his deep concern over the recent abductions of the bishops, nuns, and children in Syria.
Dear Clergy and Faithful of our God-Protected Archdiocese,
Greetings and blessings in the name of our Lord, God, and Savior Jesus Christ in the midst of this Holy Advent season.
It is with great sadness that we have received the news of the abduction of our beloved nuns and orphans from the Convent of St. Thekla, Maaloula, Syria. It is inexcusable for such peaceful, God-loving and defenseless people of God to be abducted and displaced from their place of residence and worship, after having suffered so much angush for the past three months. St. Thekla Convent, through the intercessions of its patron Saint and the prayers of all its nuns, has been since its inception in the first century a beacon of light for peace, miracles, and the spreading of our Lord's message of love for all. It is unfathomable to hear that peaceful servants of Christ are being treated in such barbaric manner, as have Metropolitan Boulos and Archbishop Youhanna been treated.
The Rev. Fr. Fouad Saba, Dean of St. George Cathedral in Coral Gables, FL writes:
We are inviting people to The First Scriptural Symposium to be hosted on January 16-19, 2014 by the newly-established Antiochian Biblical Institute (ABI), a ministry of the Fellowship of St. John the Divine (FSJD) here at St. George Cathedral in Coral Gables, Florida.
Several scholars will be in attendance from across the country to present papers on specific topics relating to the study of Scripture. Please see the attached flyer for more details. During the weekend, the ABI is honored to celebrate the 70th birthday of The Very Rev. Dr. Paul Nadim Tarazi, professor of Scripture for the last 43 years and founder of the Orthodox Center for the Advancement of Biblical Studies (OCABS).
Please feel free to distribute the attached flyer to your parishioners and friends. All sessions with lunch are complimentary. Donations are appreciated. Reservations are required to properly finalize all arrangements. All are welcome! I hope to see you here in Miami in January, God willing.

Monastery of St. Thekla, Maloula, Syria (Bernard Gagnon/Wikimedia Commons)The following report was issued by the National News Agency of Lebanon on Dec. 3:
Orthodox Patriarch Yuhanna Yazegi on Monday leveled a heartfelt cry for the world to mobilize to free a dozen of Lebanese Syrian nuns that were evacuated in the historic Christian town of Maaloula in war-torn Syria.
"Our cry is addressed to the international community and the world's government to release Saint Taqla's nuns and orphans detained since yesterday," the Patriarch said.
"Detaining the nuns is a blatant offensive to people's dignity and the voice of peace throughout Syria and the entire Levant," he indicated.

David Alexander Tait, beloved father, husband, son, professor, friend, and devoted member of St. Elijah Antiochian Orthodox Christian Church in Oklahoma City, died tragically on November 19, 2013, while he was ministering to a community of friends in Chandler, Oklahoma. David was born on March 13, 1951, in Washington, D.C., and was the oldest of five children born to Charles and Katharine Tait. He spent his childhood between the United States and England, as well as Uganda, where his parents were missionaries.
He completed high school at St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire, before earning a Bachelor's degree in Public Relations at Boston University. It was there that he met his future wife, Laura Hubbs Tait, while she was a graduate student. They were married in Boston on June 26, 1976 and shared 37 wonderful years together.

It was a weekend like no other! For months we prepared for this special event, the highlight of this year, and our entire existence as a parish. Between September 27-29th, 2013, we were about to celebrate our 50th Anniversary as St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church in Cicero!
Excitement built up when we knew that our beloved Metropolitan, His Eminence Sayidna Philip, would be presiding over the weekend's activities. We were also blessed with the presence of His Grace Bishop Antoun, Bishop of Miami and the Southwest, as well as His Grace Bishop Anthony of our diocese. We were also honored to have Subdeacon Rassem Massih, who accompanied the Metropolitan on this visit. Everyone from all ages were thrilled to be part of this historic celebration; a celebration of a parish that has faced obstacles in its history, but overcame them with faith and hard work!

Baltimore, MD (IOCC) — This young displaced Syrian mother of two now living in the southern city of Dara'a carries away new thick blankets and bedding provided to her by International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) in cooperation with church partner, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch and All the East (GOPA). As Syria's night time temperatures dip closer to freezing, displaced Syrian mothers forced to flee their homes empty-handed are struggling to keep their children warm and sheltered from the impending harsh weather.
This will be the third winter that the people of Syria have had to face since the conflict began, and resources to protect against the cold are dwindling as the civil war drags on. IOCC/GOPA is responding to the urgent needs of 255,000 of Syria's most vulnerable with the distribution of winter protection – heavy blankets, bedding kits, children's winter clothing, and shoes.

Bishop Thomas elevates Fr. FredThe first weekend in November was more than a normal weekend for the congregation of St. Michael Antiochian Orthodox Church in Monessen, PA. The parish began the celebration of their 100th anniversary, first celebrating Great Vespers on Saturday evening. Bishop Thomas, Auxiliary Bishop of Charleston, Oakland and the Mid-Atlantic, spoke after the service, encouraging us to honor our forefathers' and mothers' memories by working to keep the parish a healthy Orthodox presence in Monessen. On Sunday, Orthros and a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy was concelebrated by Bishop Thomas and Bishop Basil, Auxiliary Bishop of Wichita and Mid-America. Following the Liturgy a 100th anniversary luncheon and program was held at St. Spyridon Greek Orthodox Hellenic Center.
St. Michael Antiochian Orthodox Church was founded in 1913 by Syrian and Lebanese immigrants as a place where Orthodox Christians were able to worship and seek salvation. The church was one of many that owes its organization to then Archimandrite Raphael Hawaweeny (St. Raphael).

Baltimore, MD (IOCC) — Just four days after the most powerful tropical storm ever to make landfall blasted across the Philippines with wind speeds up to 195 miles per hour, the country is faced with the devastating loss of thousands of lives and millions of survivors across 41 provinces in a desperate search for food, water and shelter.
International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) emergency response personnel are assessing the urgent humanitarian needs for victims of Super Typhoon Haiyan, which has left a trail of destruction affecting an estimated 9.8 million people in the Philippines. IOCC, an ACT Alliance member, is in communication with the Orthodox Christian Churches and ecumenical partners of the ACT Alliance member agencies on the ground to identify the most effective and appropriate responses to the catastrophe. Supported relief activities include shelter repair and cleaning up of debris through cash for work programs in the country, as well as the distribution of relief items such as clothing and hygiene kits. The need for emergency hygiene kits is especially great. Instructions on organizing a kit assembly drive can be found on the IOCC Website.

St. George Church in Troy, Michigan recently celebrated both its 100th anniversary and the burning of its mortgage. The weekend began at the Troy Marriott on Friday, October 18th, 2013 with meetings of the Antiochian Archdiocese Board and the Governing Council of the Order of St. Ignatius, which continued through Saturday morning.
Saturday Evening Great Vespers took place at St. George's at 6:00p.m. followed by a Grand Banquet and the Burning of the Mortgage. The parish was honored to have six hierarchs present: His Eminence Metropolitan Philip; Archbishop Joseph of the Diocese of Los Angeles and the West; Bishop Antoun of the Diocese of Miami and the Southwest; Bishop Nicholas, Bishop of Brooklyn and assistant to the Metropolitan; Bishop Anthony Michael, Bishop of Toledo and the Midwest; and Metropolitan Nicholas of the Greek Diocese of North America. All of these hierarchs' presence was welcomed with great joy.
On November 7, 2013, His Grace Bishop Basil of Wichita and Mid-America addressed the 430 guests gathered for St. Vladimir's Seminary's 75th Anniversary Gala, a black tie dinner hosted by the Board of Trustees at Glen Island Harbour Club, New Rochelle, NY. A 1973 alumnus of the Seminary, Bishop Basil noted that in speaking for the event, he had come home to "the place that made me all that I am."
The Seminary, he continued, has had a "sustained impact in Orthodoxy throughout the world." Most of the Archdiocese's hierarchs are alumni of St. Vladimir's Seminary, and the current student body numbers many Antiochian students as well.
St. Vladimir's launched the "Bishop Basil Program in Byzantine Liturgical Music" in 2010, when the Board of Trustees presented His Grace with an honorary doctorate and announced the creation of the program in his name. The Seminary's Alumni Association Board Chair Gregory Abdalah (Class of '08) has noted that, "Bishop Basil has had a great influence on the development of Byzantine Music in English.

Teacher, Antiochian youth worker, and songwriter, Gigi's passion is teaching with music; this is Gigi's fifth music CD, and the first one written primarily for teens and adults. Her other projects include: Fruits of the Spirit (2004), Celebrate the Feasts (2007), Middle School Math Music (2008), and The ABC's of Orthodoxy (2011).
Church school teachers and parents throughout the United States, Canada, and many parts of the world have been enjoying her music for the past ten years. It has proven to be an effective tool for teaching and reinforcing the eternal truths of Christ and His holy Church. "This new CD is filled with essential questions for our salvation," noted Gigi.
Chesterton, IN ~ November 8, 2013
Ancient Faith Radio (AFR) is pleased to announce the addition of video podcasts to our audio programming. AFR started as an audio resource with a single streaming radio station. We then began featuring audio podcasts, as well as a second streaming station for our talk programming. Today we are the leading provider of Orthodox audio podcasts in the world. As of this week, we now also offer video podcasts, recognizing the portability of mobile devices and the demand for video content. We have plans for this area to grow in the same way that our audio podcasts have grown as we develop partnerships with more and more content providers.
The first of our video offerings is "Coffee with Sister Vassa." This is a ten-minute weekly program hosted by Sr. Dr. Vassa Larin, a nun of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad (ROCOR) and liturgiologist at the University of Vienna in Austria. Presented with a light dose of humor, the program offers engaging reflections on the Orthodox Church calendar of the current week, the lives of the saints, scriptural passages, and Orthodox tradition.
Coming soon is our second video podcast "Be the Bee."A joint production of Ancient Faith Radio and the GOARCH Department of Youth and Young Adult ministries, this brief weekly video podcast will focus on the various ways in which God has infused all of creation with goodness and beauty. The title refers to the metaphor of the bee and the flies that was used by Elder Paisios to describe how Christians should approach life. The host of the program is Steven Christoforou, the GOARCH Youth Protection / Parish Ministries Coordinator.
FOCUS St. Herman House of Hospitality, ClevelandIn September 2013, the Fellowship of Orthodox Christians United to Serve (FOCUS) North America launched an extensive back-to-school program in 28 cities across the country, providing new shoes, backpacks, and school supplies to 193,000 children from homeless and working poor families. One aspect of this program, "Operation Lace Up," provides shoes for needy kids, and recently San Diego's Channel 6 reported on the NFL San Diego Charger players as they participated in the FOCUS-sponsored program at a local distribution center.
"We are equipping and preparing the poorest children in the country at a time when they are the most vulnerable—on their first day of school," says program manager and FOCUS Orange County Center Director Jacob Lee. "FOCUS' distributions will insure that children have the basic provisions they need to attend and participate in school."
In the meantime, St. Herman's Orthodox House of Hospitality (FOCUS, Cleveland) hosted "An Evening with Fr. Thomas Hopko" on November 4, 2013. One of the highlights of the evening was a video introducing the ministry, featuring Director Paul Finley and several of the men served by the House of Hospitality.

3 Easy Ways to Save on Baby Products
Tweet |
When purchasing baby products, it is important to do your research and shop smart. On today's news segment, we talked about 3 ways to save on baby products of course, there are many but I wanted to highlight the 3 we mentioned here today.
3 Ways to Save on Baby Products
1. Diapers & Formula: First, I always recommend that you call the companies directly and ask for coupons and deals. You'll find many companies will sign you up for newsletters and even mail you coupons and free samples. For diapers, check out this post on Cloth Diapering 101. If you are purchasing disposables, be sure to watch Amazon.com and Diapers.com closely for deals as the prices change frequently! Don't forget, you can make your own baby wipes with just a few ingredients too for big savings!
2. Sign Up for Amazon Mom: This one is simple, you'll save 20% on diapers and wipes plus get FREE 2 day shipping just for signing up. Amazon prices change daily so be sure to check back often for deals on everything baby!
3. Medications: When you have a prescription to fill, be sure to call around first. Almost every pharmacy is offering free antibiotics but you'll find the list of freebies varies greatly. Call ahead before you fill your prescription and find the pharmacy with the best deal!

- In this paper we study a particular class of \(n\)-node recurrent neural networks (RNNs).In the \(3\)-node case we use monotone dynamical systems theory to show,for a well-defined set of parameters, that,generically, every orbit of the RNN is asymptotic to a periodic orbit.Then, within the usual 'learning' context of NeuralNetworks, we investigate whether RNNs of this class can adapt their internal parameters soas to 'learn' and then replicate autonomously certain external periodic signals.Our learning algorithm is similar to identification algorithms in adaptivecontrol theory. The main feature of the adaptation algorithm is that global exponential convergenceof parameters is guaranteed. We also obtain partial convergence results in the \(n\)-node case.
