Mesa Can Now Be Smaller, Build Faster
As something of value to more users than Mesa receiving EXT_texture_compression_RGTC support is that the shared DRI core patch has been merged. This results in a significantly smaller package size for Mesa (circa 30MB savings) and results in Mesa building about 13% faster.

Mesa Can Do EXT_texture_compression_RGTC
In Mesa's quest to catch up to the proprietary Linux drivers (and the graphics drivers available under Windows), they are now a tiny bit closer. David Airlie has announced on the Mesa mailing list that he has implemented support for the EXT_texture_compression_RGTC extension into Mesa.

An Initial Version Of LunarGLASS-LLVM For Mesa
In October of last year there was a proposal by LunarG, a small consulting company focusing upon Gallium3D and Mesa that was formed by some of the original Tungsten Graphics crew, to create a common kernel and shader compiler stack. This stack would utilize LLVM (the Low-Level Virtual Machine) for optimizations This work was published as LunarGLASS and there is now a specification and initial implementation of it for Mesa.

Tiling Is Being Worked On For The Open Evergreen Driver
While the Radeon HD 6000 series is AMD's latest generation of graphics processor, and has initial open-source support available as of earlier this month, the open-source Linux GPU driver support isn't yet complete for the older Radeon HD 5000 "Evergreen" series and generations even older than that. One of the features that has been lacking for Evergreen is tiling support within the ATI Gallium3D "R600g" driver for the HD 5000 series while it is available for the R600 ASICs and earlier. Evergreen tiling support though is now being worked on, which should deliver a performance boost once fully implemented for this hardware.

This GLX Patch Can Really Boosts The FPS (~ +60%)
The past few months Chris Wilson has been on quite a coding spree with making many changes and improvements to the xf86-video-intel DDX driver, among other components. Today though he has put out a patch to the X.Org development list that will affect far more individuals than just those using the Intel graphics driver, which is his primary focus being an employee of the Intel Open-Source Technology Center. This GLX patch has boosted the in-game frame-rate for him in one of his tests by about sixty percent!

A Bounty For Gallium3D On Haiku OS
Going back to at least 2009 there's been interest in having Gallium3D on the Haiku operating system and last year they hoped for a new graphics stack as part of GSoC 2010, but that didn't develop. They wanted Gallium3D and/or the ability to load Linux graphics drivers on this BeOS-compatible operating system. Now though they've put up a cash bounty to get Gallium3D support.

Mesa 7.10 Is Coming In One Month
While we anticipated Mesa 7.10 being a late Q4'2010 or very early Q1'2011 release, today that's now been formalized with Intel's Ian Romanick once again stepping up to the plate to manage this next Mesa 3D release. Ian's proposal calls for Mesa 7.10 to be branched on 8 December and then for the final release to be out around or on the 7th of January. In traditional Mesa fashion, a Mesa 7.9.1 bug-fix release will also come around that time.

The Vega State Tracker Gets Cleaned, OpenVG 1.1
Chia-I Wu, the developer who previously worked on the EGL state tracker, brought Mesa to Android netbooks, and allowed Nouveau to work on Wayland (and now is doing work for LunarG), has some improvements to the Vega state tracker. Namely he has cleaned up this Gallium3D state tracker for Mesa and additionally has a branch containing OpenVG 1.1 support.

Work Is Back Underway On Clover: Mesa's OpenCL
Some two years ago there was a branch of Mesa created by Zack Rusin named "Clover" with intentions of providing OpenCL over Mesa. While it looked hopeful at first, this code to support OpenCL over Mesa was never finished and after a while it didn't receive any further work. It's been months since there's been much activity in this area of GPGPU support for Mesa/Gallium3D, but recently Zack has renewed his interest in getting Mesa Clover working.

XvMC With iDCT Now Working On Gallium3D
A month ago there was the surprising work done by Christian König to bring XvMC and VDPAU support to the open-source ATI Radeon "R600g" Gallium3D driver for the Radeon HD 2000/3000/4000/5000 series graphics cards. The XvMC state tracker with Gallium3D began working shortly thereafter for accelerating XvMC using shaders with this ATI Gallium3D driver, however, iDCT support was not implemented. Christian though has now added support for inverse discrete cosine transforms to this X-Video Motion Compensation code for Gallium3D.

An Update On The OpenGL 3 Support In Mesa
While the Mesa software stack has made some steps towards supporting OpenGL 3.x, this free software library used by open-source graphics drivers is still a ways from supporting this industry graphics API thats years old and has already been surpassed by OpenGL 4.x. There hasn't been too much major progress lately on GL3 support, but some think it could be achieved next year. When there is OpenGL 3.0 support in Mesa, it will be released as Mesa 8.0. Regardless, the OpenGL 3 status document for Mesa has been updated.

Zack Rusin Talks About Gallium3D's TGSI IR
Lately there's been a lot of talk about Gallium3D's IR known as TGSI, or Tokenized Gallium Shader Instructions, and attempts by some to replace this intermediate representation. Efforts toward improving TGSI are not particularly new, but it's been going on for a while and then just earlier this month a new shader and compiler stack was proposed by LunarG. As part of the LunarGLASS proposal, the LLVM IR would be used as a replacement to TGSI.

LunarG Proposes A Shader And Kernel Compiler Stack
LunarG, the consulting company providing professional services for Mesa / Gallium3D that's led by Jens Owens, the founder of Tungsten Graphics, is beginning to commence work on a new project: LunarGLASS. Last year, LunarG wanted to provided better Linux graphics documentation, but this new LunarGLASS initiative is much more ambitious and it's about providing a complete shader and kernel compiler stack.

Mesa 7.9 Has Now Been Released
Just as planned, Mesa 7.9 has now been released! This 7.9 release of this open-source graphics library is huge with a plethora of Gallium3D improvements (to the drivers, state trackers, etc), core Mesa improvements (including new OpenGL extensions), a new GLSL compiler, and much more.

Mesa 7.9 Makes It To The Release Candidate Stage
Mesa 7.9, one of the biggest updates to this open-source graphics driver stack in quite a while, is almost here. Ian Romanick has made available a release candidate for Mesa 7.9 and is saying the final release will be here one week from now (4 October) barring any major issues cropping up.

For Those Interested In Direct3D Over Gallium3D
There still is great interest and discussion among many users interested in Direct3D 10 and 11 being natively implemented on Linux using a new state tracker that was published this week for the Gallium3D driver architecture. It seems some Wine developers are still in opposition to this effort even though their Direct3D 10 implementation within Wine is still very limited in terms of translating the calls to OpenGL and their Direct3D 11 support really hasn't taken off.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"These invitations swept me away! I almost cried just seeing them because they met my every expectation and exceeded it! The card stock is so high quality I could seriously be a weirdo and rub the invitation between my fingers all day that's how good it feels! Everyone that's seen here commented how perfect they are! I'm excited to send these out!"
"Changes requested were made quickly and correctly. Invitations are even more beautiful than they looked in the pictures. Arrived almost a week earlier than the quoted delivery date. Highly recommend."
"These invitations turned out beautiful. I was a little nervous about ordering online, plus with this specific invitation, I was unable to order a sample which made me really question how it would turn out. The photo I uploaded turned out good,as clear I think it could have since it was a far away picture, even after I zoomed in a little bit. I asked if they would capitalize the initials in the upper left corner, which they did. I also questioned the ink color about if it was coppery or what it would like on paper, I preferred that it be gold. She actually sent me a proof with marigold ink along with the ink shown on the website, I ended up choosing the marigold. It looked perfect. I love my invitations and am so excited to send them out! They are a great price too, compared to going to invitation shops in person, I saved a lot of money and got exactly what I wanted!"
"The wedding invitations I ordered were absolutely perfect!!! Wedding Paper Divas were fast with delivery as well as having everything on the invitation accurate!! Customer Service was also super nice!! If I ever need to make another purchase of a paper product, I will be ordering from Wedding Paper Divas!! Extremely satisfied with the entire process!! Excited to send out my beautiful wedding invitations!!"
"By far the best experience working with an online printing company. SUPER fast! I placed an order and within 24hrs I received my first proof. I then went back and forth 3 times(my own choice) before they went to print...3 days later they were on my door step!! The paper is of great quality and I LOVE the just lovely layout. It fits us! :)"

19th International Congress on Ancient Bronzes
October 13-17, 2015
Archaeologists, art historians, conservators, curators, scientists, and students will convene at both the Getty Villa in Malibu and the Getty Center in Brentwood to investigate the artistry, craftsmanship, production, conservation, and science of ancient bronzes.
The Congress is organized to coincide with, and be energized by, the exhibition Power and Pathos: Bronze Sculpture of the Hellenistic World on view at the Getty Center July 28 through November 1, 2015. The exhibition will provide an extraordinary opportunity to see important new finds and many of the best-known ancient bronzes displayed side-by-side for the first time.
Artistry in Bronze: The Greeks and their Legacy
The study of large-scale ancient bronzes has long focused on aspects of technology and production. Analytical work regarding casting cores, alloys, joins, and patinas has significantly advanced our understanding of materials, processes, and techniques involved in this medium. Most recently, the restoration history of bronzes has established itself as a distinct area of investigation. How does this scholarship bear on the understanding of bronzes within the wider history of ancient art? How do these technical data relate to our ideas of styles and development? How has the material bronze affected ancient and modern perceptions of form, value, and status of works of art?
The 2015 Congress, held in conjunction with an unprecedented exhibition of Hellenistic bronze statuary, invites presentations of new research with an emphasis on art-historical, aesthetic, and chronological issues regarding Greek bronze sculptures, as well as questions of their reception in later periods and cultural contexts, beginning with the Hellenistic and its disparate centers of bronze working. Presentations addressing other topics are also welcome.

Altaeros set to break world record with 1,000 foot-high floating wind turbine
By Loz Blain
April 6, 2014
Winds are stronger and steadier at higher altitudes, that's why the Buoyant Air Turbine (BAT) from Altaeros is pushing to be the highest wind turbine in history. Already tested to 500 feet off the ground in 45 mph winds, this helium-filled shell with a wind turbine in the middle is soon shooting for a world record 1,000 ft float. Packing down into a shipping container for transport, the BAT is being proposed as a quickly deployable tethered power source for remote areas and emergency zones.
Wind turbines on the tops of towers have a few disadvantages and attract criticism on several fronts. They take a long time to install, they make a bit of noise, they pose a threat to birds and some folks consider them a blight on the landscape, making them a bit of a "not in my backyard" proposition in certain areas.
More importantly, the towers aren't high enough to take advantage of the strong, consistent wind you can get higher up. At 1,000 ft, for example, you can expect about five times more wind than you can at the top of a standard tower.
The Buoyant Air Turbine (BAT) from Altaeros is an inflatable helium shell with stabilizing fins and a turbine in the middle. Strong tethers anchor it to the ground and send the electricity down.
It's designed to handle winds up to 100 mph in the air, and it's not bothered by rain or snow. It's got a secondary grounding tether to protect its electronics from lightning strikes, and it can be set to quietly return to its dock if weather gets too bad. If one of its three tethers breaks, it'll automatically bring itself down as well.
The BAT can be transported in a shipping container, and deployed inside 24 hours, making it handy for emergency zones. It can be remotely monitored once it's set up, but somebody does need to check it every now and then for tears, and top up the helium if required.
Of course, floating tethered wind generators have their own set of safety issues. Something this big floating in the sky on wires could easily get in the way of small aircraft, or find itself coming down to earth in inconvenient ways if something goes wrong, as Mike Barnard points out in his excellent Dodgy Wind piece from last year. But Altaeros Energies doesn't appear to be pitching the BAT as anything but a remote or emergency zone generator, so it doesn't raise any red flags.
The testing is being conducted in Alaska, we'll keep you updated.

It will take a lot of precious helium to support the power cables on their own, not to mention all the rest of the paraphernalia. And for what? Something that is going to be next to useless when the wind is blowing hard.
What is the power cable going to feed into? A grid that is most likely the cause of the loss of power because it has been damaged by whatever caused the disaster in the first place? Really? Fix that and "Hey presto!" no need for this device anyway.
As mentioned in the article, these would be a hazard to light aircraft, such as rescue helicopters. How tragic to be saved from a collapsed building only to die because the helicopter carrying you to hospital flew into a poorly visible cable or mooring line.
Let's stick with the tried and tested diesel generators that are understood by relief workers, are comparatively cheap and can put the power exactly where it is needed. Not only that, they will not need to be taken out of action on a regular and frequent basis to be refilled with yet more precious helium.Mel Tisdale
Most cities have TV / radio tower nearby, with similar heights and similar brace wires, so what is the basis for the safety fears of such a generator near urban areas? Tethers from could keep such a turbine anchored in one spot, and perhaps have dual function as a transmission tower, traffic monitoring, etc. Helium is sieved from natural gas. The USA is fortunate to have lots of new gas supply from shale, so helium availability is mostly one of storage and distribution costs. Helium leakage minimization should be a manageable problem. Conventional wind turbines loose scaleability at large sizes, because the tower cost gets too complex and are still far to short as this article notes. Tower-free wind ideas need to be completely analyzed, not abruptly dismissed.JMS
this idea has been in development for the better part of a decade. google's project kite-power is similarly seeking to take advantage of a few hundred meters difference in altittude that accounts for substantial gap up in wind speed and continuity.
google and others have admitted as much that these devices cannot and will not revolutionize wind power , and are best develped for niche 'on-site' deployable power applications where building a fixed windmill base is impractical or impossible.
it is more likely than not that other power solutions arleady in existence or soon to be in the future, will render these 'floating' or 'gliding' windmills obsolete for niche emergency on site power.
in particular , for sites that cannot be resupplied easily, like the arctic, they will use solar power. for the few people residing in polar winters----they cannot afford to maintain a system that will frequently be having problems all of which must be handled in the dark, so using a fuel reserve is simply more practical.
it may sound crazy, but I think the best potential niche deployment of these is for an at sea ocean power station, tethered to a ship that is a mother ship.
the problem with energy scavenging from high power systems, is the system itself tends to destroy the harvesting machine , wehther we are talking about fast winds, extremely concentrated sun, or fast ocean currents........ too much power-------not good for machine.zevulon
This baby would have to be floated well beyond small arms fire range. It's just too tempting a target for a dipstick with a gun.RelayerM31
@ Mel Tisdale Helium can be harvested from the atmosphere at a reasonable cost it just costs more than getting it from natural gas.
"What is the power cable going to feed into?" "Let's stick with the tried and tested diesel generators" Pull your head out... fresh air is great.
The rescue helicopter crashing into the wire. 20 or 30 red lights would take car of that or better make the nonelectrical conductive portion of the tether out of optical fiberglass making the whole tether glow from only 1 or 2 lights.
When I was kid many decades ago and toy balloons were not required by law to rapidly decay helium balloons would float for at least a week and a half longer than they do now. In the case of disaster relief there is no reason to think that they would have to be serviced before enough of the predisaster grid is back up for it not to be a problem.Slowburn
My question is why do we need to fill these floating wind turbines from our limited supplies of helium instead of easily-produced hydrogen? Its not like they have human crews on board that need to be protected from fire, and with all the technological advances since the Hindenburg disaster one would assume the risk of fire would be greatly reduced anyway without making them completely uneconomical.Forward Thinker
@ Forward Thinker Hydrogen is even slipperier than Helium. and the supply of helium is not finite. While it would cost significantly more to extract helium from the atmosphere than it does to extract it from several natural gas fields and might price children's floaty balloons out of existence there is no danger of running out for industrial and medical purposes.Slowburn

New GeForce Bundle: Witcher 3 and Batman: Arkham Knight
Subject: Graphics Cards | May 5, 2015 - 12:46 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: The Witcher 3, nvidia, GTX 980, GTX 970, gtx, geforce, batman arkham knight
NVIDIA has announced a new game bundle for GeForce graphics cards starting now, and it's a doozy: Purchase a qualifying GTX card and receive download codes for both Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Batman: Arkham Knight!
Needless to say, both of these titles have been highly anticipated, and neither have been released just yet with Witcher 3: Wild Hunt due to be released on May 19, and Batman: Arkham Knight arriving on June 23. So which cards qualify? Amazon has a page specifically created for this new offer here, and depending on which card you select you'll be eligible for either both upcoming games, or just Witcher 3. NVIDIA has this chart on their promotion page for reference:
So GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 970 cards will qualify for both games, and GTX 960 cards and the mobile GPUs qualify for Witcher 3 alone. Regardless of which game or card you may choose these PC versions of the new games will feature graphics that can't be matched by consoles, and NVIDIA points out the advantages in their post:
"Both Batman and The Witcher raise the bar for graphical fidelity, rendering two very different open worlds with a level of detail we could only dream of last decade. And on PC, each is bolstered by NVIDIA GameWorks effects that increase fidelity, realism, and immersion. But to use those effects in conjunction with the many other available options, whilst retaining a high frame rate, it's entirely possible that you'll need an upgrade."
NVIDIA also posted this Witcher 3: Wild Hunt behind-the-scenes video:
In addition to the GameWorks effects present in Witcher 3, NVIDIA worked with developer Rocksteady on Batman: Arkham Knight "to create new visual effects exclusively for the game's PC release." The post elaborates:
"This is in addition to integrating the latest and greatest versions of our GPU-accelerated PhysX Destruction, PhysX Clothing and PhysX Turbulence technologies, which work in tandem to create immersive effects that react realistically to external forces. In previous Batman: Arkham games, these technologies created immersive fog and ice effects, realistic destructible scenery, and game-enhancing cloth effects that added to the atmosphere and spectacle. Expect to see similar effects in Arkham Knight, along with new features and effects that we'll be talking about in depth as we approach Arkham Knight's June 23rd release."
Of note, mobile GPUs included in the promotion will only receive download codes if the seller of the notebook is participating in the "Two Times The Adventure" offer, so be sure to check that out when looking for a gaming laptop that qualifies!
The promotion is going on now and is available "for a limited time or while supplies last".

Tagged: titan x, nvidia, maxwell, gtx, geforce, gdc 15, GDC
For those of you worried that GDC would sneak by without any new information for NVIDIA's GeForce fans, Jen-Hsun Huang surprised everyone by showing up at the Epic Games' keynote with Tim Sweeny to hijack it.
The result: the first showing of the upcoming GeForce TITAN X based on the upcoming Maxwell GM200 GPU.
JHH stated that it would have a 12GB frame buffer and was built using 8 billion transistors! There wasn't much more information than that, but I was promised that the details would be revealed sooner rather than later.
Any guesses on performance or price?
Jen-Hsun signs the world's first TITAN X for Tim Sweeney.
Kite Demo running on TITAN X
UPDATE: I ran into the TITAN X again at the NVIDIA booth and was able to confirm a couple more things. First, the GPU will only require a 6+8-pin power connections, indicating that NVIDIA is still pushing power efficiency with GM200.
Also, as you would expect, the TITAN X will support 3-way and 4-way SLI, or at very least has the SLI bridges to support it.

GPU Rumors: AMD Plans 20nm but NVIDIA Waits for 16nm
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards | December 28, 2014 - 09:47 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: radeon, nvidia, gtx, geforce, amd
According to an anonymous source of WCCFTech, AMD is preparing a 20nm-based graphics architecture that is expected to release in April or May. Originally, they predicted that the graphics devices, which they call R9 300 series, would be available in February or March. The reason for this "delay" is a massive demand for 20nm production.
The source also claims that NVIDIA will skip 20nm entirely and instead opt for 16nm when that becomes available (which is said to be mid or late 2016). The expectation is that NVIDIA will answer AMD's new graphics devices with a higher-end Maxwell device that is still at 28nm. Earlier rumors, based on a leaked SiSoftware entry, claim 3072 CUDA cores that are clocked between 1.1 GHz and 1.39 GHz. If true, this would give it between 6.75 and 8.54 TeraFLOPs of performance, the higher of which is right around the advertised performance of a GeForce Titan Z (only in a single compute device that does not require distribution of work like what SLI was created to automate).
Will this strategy work in NVIDIA's favor? I don't know. 28nm is a fairly stable process at this point, which will probably allow them to get chips that can be bigger and more aggressively clocked. On the other hand, they pretty much need to rely upon chips that are bigger and more aggressively clocked to be competitive with AMD's slightly more design architecture. Previous rumors also hint that AMD is looking at water-cooling for their reference card, which might place yet another handicap against NVIDIA, although cooling is not an area that NVIDIA struggles in.
A powerful architecture
In March of this year, NVIDIA announced the GeForce GTX Titan Z at its GPU Technology Conference. It was touted as the world's fastest graphics card with its pair of full GK110 GPUs but it came with an equally stunning price of $2999. NVIDIA claimed it would be available by the end of April for gamers and CUDA developers to purchase but it was pushed back slightly and released at the very end of May, going on sale for the promised price of $2999.
The specifications of GTX Titan Z are damned impressive - 5,760 CUDA cores, 12GB of total graphics memory, 8.1 TFLOPs of peak compute performance. But something happened between the announcement and product release that perhaps NVIDIA hadn't accounted for. AMD's Radeon R9 295X2, a dual-GPU card with full-speed Hawaii chips on-board, was released at $1499. I think it's fair to say that AMD took some chances that NVIDIA was surprised to see them take, including going the route of a self-contained water cooler and blowing past the PCI Express recommended power limits to offer a ~500 watt graphics card. The R9 295X2 was damned fast and I think it caught NVIDIA a bit off-guard.
As a result, the GeForce GTX Titan Z release was a bit quieter than most of us expected. Yes, the Titan Black card was released without sampling the gaming media but that was nearly a mirror of the GeForce GTX 780 Ti, just with a larger frame buffer and the performance of that GPU was well known. For NVIDIA to release a flagship dual-GPU graphics cards, admittedly the most expensive one I have ever seen with the GeForce brand on it, and NOT send out samples, was telling.
NVIDIA is adamant though that the primary target of the Titan Z is not just gamers but the CUDA developer that needs the most performance possible in as small of a space as possible. For that specific user, one that doesn't quite have the income to invest in a lot of Tesla hardware but wants to be able to develop and use CUDA applications with a significant amount of horsepower, the Titan Z fits the bill perfectly.
Still, the company was touting the Titan Z as "offering supercomputer class performance to enthusiast gamers" and telling gamers in launch videos that the Titan Z is the "fastest graphics card ever built" and that it was "built for gamers." So, interest peaked, we decided to review the GeForce GTX Titan Z.
The GeForce GTX TITAN Z Graphics Card
Cost and performance not withstanding, the GeForce GTX Titan Z is an absolutely stunning looking graphics card. The industrial design started with the GeForce GTX 690 (the last dual-GPU card NVIDIA released) and continued with the GTX 780 and Titan family, lives on with the Titan Z.
The all metal finish looks good and stands up to abuse, keeping that PCB straight even with the heft of the heatsink. There is only a single fan on the Titan Z, center mounted, with a large heatsink covering both GPUs on opposite sides. The GeForce logo up top illuminates, as we have seen on all similar designs, which adds a nice touch.

NVIDIA Finally Launches GeForce GTX Titan Z Graphics Card
Subject: Graphics Cards | May 28, 2014 - 11:19 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: titan z, nvidia, gtx, geforce
Though delayed by a month, today marks the official release of NVIDIA's Titan Z graphics card, the dual GK110 beast with the $3000 price tag. The massive card was shown for the first time in March at NVIDIA's GPU Technology Conference and our own Tim Verry was on the grounds to get the information.
The details remain the same:
Specifically, the GTX TITAN Z is a triple slot graphics card that marries two full GK110 (big Kepler) GPUs for a total of 5,760 CUDA cores, 448 TMUs, and 96 ROPs with 12GB of GDDR5 memory on a 384-bit bus (6GB on a 384-bit bus per GPU). For the truly adventurous, it appears possible to SLI two GTX Titan Z cards using the single SLI connector. Display outputs include two DVI, one HDMI, and one DisplayPort connector.
The difference now of course is that all the clock speeds and pricing are official.
A base clock speed of 705 MHz with a Boost rate of 876 MHz places it well behind the individual GPU performance of a GeForce GTX 780 Ti or GTX Titan Black (rated at 889/980 MHz). The memory clock speed remains the same at 7.0 Gbps and you are still getting a massive 6GB of memory per GPU.
Maybe most interesting with the release of the GeForce GTX Titan Z is that NVIDIA seems to have completely fixated on non-DIY consumers with the card. We did not receive a sample of the Titan Z (nor did we get one of the Titan Black) and when I inquired as to why, NVIDIA PR stated that they were "only going to CUDA developers and system builders."
I think it is more than likely that after the release of AMD's Radeon R9 295X2 dual GPU graphics card on April 8th, with a price tag of $1500 (half of the Titan Z), the target audience was redirected. NVIDIA already had its eye on the professional markets that weren't willing to dive into the Quadro/Tesla lines (CUDA developers will likely drop $3k at the drop of a hat to get this kind of performance density). But a side benefit of creating the best flagship gaming graphics card on the planet was probably part of the story - and promptly taken away by AMD.
I still believe the Titan Z will be an impressive graphics card to behold both in terms of look and style and in terms of performance. But it would take the BIGGEST NVIDIA fans to be able to pass up buying a pair of Radeon R9 295X2 cards for a single GeForce GTX Titan Z. At least that is our assumption until we can test one for ourselves.
I'm still working to get my hands on one of these for some testing as I think the ultra high end graphics card coverage we offer is incomplete without it.
Several of NVIDIA's partners are going to be offering the Titan Z including EVGA, ASUS, MSI and Zotac. Maybe the most intersting though is EVGA's water cooled option!
So, what do you think? Anyone lining up for a Titan Z when they show up for sale?

NVIDIA Joins the Bundle Game: Up to $150 in credit on Free-to-Play games for all GTX buyers
Subject: Graphics Cards | February 11, 2013 - 12:33 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: world of tanks, planetside 2, nvidia, Hawken, gtx, geforce, bundle
AMD has definitely been winning the "game" of game bundles and bonus content with graphics cards purchases, as is evident from the recent Never Settle Reloaded campaign that includes titles like Crysis 3, Bioshock Infinite and Tomb Raider. I made comments that NVIDIA was falling behind and may even start to look like they have moved away from a focus on PC gamers since they hadn't made any reply over the last year...
After losing a bidding war with AMD over Crysis 3, today NVIDIA is unveiling a bundle campaign that attack at a different angle; rather than including in bundled games NVIDIA is working free-to-play titles. How do you give gamers bonuses by including free to play games? Credits! Cold hard cash!
Starting today if you pick up any GeForce GTX graphics card you'll be eligible to get free in-game credit to use in one of the three free-to-play titles partnering with NVIDIA. A GTX 650 or GTX 650 Ti will net you $25 in each for a total bonus of $75 while buying a GTX 660 or higher, all the way up to the GTX 690 results in $50 per game for a total of $150.
Also, after asking NVIDIA about it, this is a PER CARD bundle so if you get an SLI pair of anything, you'll get double the credit. A pair of GeForce GTX 660s for an SLI rig results in $100 per game, $300 total!
This is a very interesting approach that NVIDIA has decided to take and I am eager to get feedback from our readers on the differences between AMD's and NVIDIA's bundles. I have played quite a bit of Planetside 2 and definitely enjoyed it; it is a graphics showcase as well with huge and expansive levels and hundreds of people per server. World of Tanks and Hawken I am less familiar with but they also are extremely popular.
Leave us your comments below! Do you think NVIDIA's new GeForce GTX gaming bundle for free-to-play game credits can be successful!
If you are looking for a new GeForce GTX card today and this bundle convinced you to buy, feel free to use the links below.
Spicing up the GTX 670
The Power Edition graphics card series from MSI is a relatively new addition to its lineup. The Power Edition often mimics that of the higher-end Lightning series, but at a far lower price (and perhaps a smaller feature set). This allows MSI to split the difference between the reference class boards and the high end Lightning GPUs.
Doing this allows users a greater variety of products to choose from, and to better tailor users' purchases by their needs and financial means. Not everyone wants to pay $600 for a GTX 680 Lightning, but what if someone was able to get similar cooling, quality, and overclocking potential for a much lower price? This is what MSI has done with one of its latest Power Edition cards.
The GTX 670 Power Edition
The NVIDIA GTX 670 cards have received accolades throughout the review press. It is a great combination of performance, power consumption, heat production, and price. It certainly caused AMD a great amount of alarm, and it hurriedly cut prices on the HD 7900 series of cards in response. The GTX 670 is a slightly cut-down version of the full GTX 680, and it runs very close to the clock speed of its bigger brother. In fact, other than texture and stream unit count, the cards are nearly identical.

These are some ways to describe and claim inventions to potentially avoid or overcome challenges on the grounds of subject matter eligibility.
Is patent reform really what's needed?
There is speculation building whether patent reform legislation is still needed because recent court rulings apparently address many of the concerns that were leading to the push for a new law.

Post Office Square, Boston
Post Office Square (est. 1874) in Boston, Massachusetts is located in the financial district at the intersection of Milk, Congress, Pearl and Water Streets.[1][2] It was named in 1874 after the post office which fronted it,[3] now replaced by the John W. McCormack Post Office and Court House.
As of 2009 the square is almost entirely occupied by a privately owned and managed but publicly accessible park, Norman B. Leventhal Park, named for the Boston building manager and designer who designed it. It sits above a parking garage, named "The Garage at Post Office Square."[4] The garage lies 80 feet (24 m) below the surface, the deepest point of excavation in the city. Revenues from parking fund the maintenance of the park. The 1.7-acre (0.69 ha) park is a popular lunchtime destination for area workers. It features a cafe, fountains, and a pergola around a central lawn, and the management provides seat cushions for visitors during the summer. Designed by landscape architects The Halvorson Company, the park is also home to "125 species of plants."[5]
Also on the square is the New England Telephone Building, where the laboratory in which the first telephone was built has been reconstructed.[6]

Union minister Venkaiah Naidu has said that recent incidents of people hooting against chief ministers was a sign of their anger against the state governments and they should recognise this.
Naidu was reacting to a question over chief minister Prithviraj Chavan's decision to skip the function in Nagpur on Thursday where the prime minister launched the Metro rail project.
"Hooting is wrong. But the people are angry. What can we do? The chief ministers have an order from the top to not attend functions with the PM. The Congress should stop negative politics," Naidu said, while talking to journalists at the state BJP office.
Chavan apparently decided against attending the programme on the suggestion of the Congress party, after the crowd booed Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda at a function in prime minister Narendra Modi's presence in Kaithal on Tuesday.
The Congress has accused the BJP, the RSS and the prime minister of a pre-planned, orchestrated exercise to humiliate chief ministers of Congress-ruled states.
On Thursday, Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren was booed during his speech at an event attended by Modi in Ranchi. Soren, who runs the government with the support of the Congress, called the incident "a rape of the federal system".
Naidu, who is minister for urban development and parliamentary affairs, also denied allegations that the Centre had showed preference in clearing the Metro rail project for Nagpur over one for Pune. Pune is a stronghold of the Congress and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP).
He blamed the Cong-NCP for the delay on the Pune project. "There is no politics on the clearance of the projects. We had asked the state for clarifications on the Pune Metro proposal but did not get a response. We sent them reminders May through July and got an email from them only two days ago," the union minister said.
The state chief minister had alleged bias on the matter, saying that both the Nagpur and Pune projects were approved by the Centre in February.
Naidu also said that the Centre was keen on projects that would help to ease the traffic congestion in Mumbai. The Metro 3 rail project is one of them that would be given priority, he said. The union minister discussed the project with the chief minister during a meeting earlier in the day.

Real reviews, from customers like you.
We started going to Sea Acres when our son was 2; now he is 13, and we are still visiting!
Its a beautifully positioned site with stunning views and a spectacular beach just a walk away.
The caravans are kept updated and the park is always clean, tidy and welcoming.
Many happy times spent here and a treasure of memories.
Lovely park. Caravan was modern and comfortable. Restaurant food was good but not great. Pool facilities are spacious and warm but dated and the changing rooms were cramped. Location was spectacular however with the great sandy beach close by and views from the caravan deck.
We had a lovely week at Sea Acres blessed with great views and weather. We would definitely stay again. The only issue we had was with the changing rooms in the swimming pool and the lack of lockers for storing personal items, although lockers were available they were soaking wet, also only one toilet in the ladies changing room, at busy times this was not sufficient. Service in the bar and restaurant was superb and quality excellent.
Children loved our holiday and can't wait to go back. We have been going here for the last 13 years and we always think when shall we book again.
Great, have stayed before and would do again.
Awsome experience, loved it
Can't praise this place enough. Went with my son and although the weather wasn't great we still walked down to the beach most days or went to the pool. Very clean and well maintained park. The staff are excellent and the customer service was fantastic. We went to the seal sanctuary which was a nice day out and not far away. Beautiful views and a nice week away.
nice place,
The decking and the rails on the caravans need desperately upgrading nails showing wood rotten in places dangerous. Caravans are well worn, the seating is padded but i found uncomfortable
Accommodation is good in the higher specification caravans.
See above.
caravan not as clean as it should have been this is what let it down van looking a little tired now
Great place for weekend but not for weekday. Everything close after 6pm and this place is 8-10 miles from main town, don't forget to buy main thing before hand, or you will regret.
Loved the view and environment. Its like heaven around evening.
Accommodation was great, the walls are thin and we were worried about our baby waking up other people in the morning, but actually surprisingly you couldn't hear him outside! The accommodation was perfect - having a veranda was a real bonus to sit out and have breakfast looking at the sea!
We have always found sea acres a great place to stay and we would go again.

Yes we bought the boat and did negotiate some on the final price but where do you draw the line on what is acceptable and not acceptable in the terms of what is represented in printed advertisement and by the broker. We found the boat on the internet and then talked to the broker and asked about the items in question.
I would of much rather of looked at MS's boat than going to look at a boat that the seller or broker or both either intentionally misrepresented or misrepresented due to sloppiness. The problem is that it isn't always so easy to tell from a phone call and the actual advertisement if you are being mislead. There are people spending a lot more than we did to go look at boats that the same thing has happened to and it isn't right if it could of been avoided.
I'm not trying to pick the add or what they told me on the phone apart for the sake of a lower price, but from the standpoint is it worth my time and money to go look at the boat in the first place. Yes we ended up buying the boat so you can say the broker won on that point. Would we of still gone and seen the boat in the first place if it was represented factually. Maybe not, maybe yes, and there were other boats we could of driven to,

What kind of tamper does this machine brings?
Thank you for your post. The tamper for this machine is plastic, and is 45mm in size.
I have this machine, and I was wondering if it is an ESE compatible? ~Aleesha
Aleesha I am sorry it is not.
Question about tamping and pressurized portafilter. Is it correct that tamping pressure isn't important with this machine. That is the impression I've gotten from what I have read. If that is so is there any advantage at all to tamping either harder or softer. Also does a 53 mm tamper work, the one that comes with this machine is awfully flimsy even if you don't have to tamp very hard. I measured the plastic tamper and it is 50 mm, 53 mm looks very borderline as to whether it will fit or not. Also, any idea how big the included scoop is? I started using 2 scoops for a double shot, and that seems to work ok, but I am curious exactly how much that is.
With the Pressurized portafilter, the pressure of tamping is not important. The biggest part about that is just to get the surface flat and down far enough to clear the shower screen on the machine. The tamper that comes with the machine does this perfectly fine. 53mm is the correct size tamper for the machine, however.
Robert, I do not mean to disagree with Chris but I noticed a difference between tamping lightly and harder. If I press 'harder', I get a stronger coffee and when I remove the portafilter, the coffee residue is more compact and not too 'watery'. Take care, AP
I bought a 53mm Rattleware tamper for this machine after seeing the post above, and it is too big. Does not fit into the portafilter. Not a big deal, but just wanted to post here as an FYI in case anyone else is doing the same search. Maybe it is different for different brands? Luckily right after I ordered it, I found the tamper that came with the machine. (My one-year-old had run off with it and hidden it in the laundry room.) Robert is right; that one works just fine!
What is the difference between the EC50 and the EC100 other than price and physical appearance.
Both of them are great little machines. The primary difference as you mentioned is the look. Both of them have the same pressurized portafilter system, so they are both going to deliver good, consistent shots very easily for you.
Robert, I have been using the Jura EC50 for over a month and for the two of us it is perfect. As far as it concerns me the difference is in their price. Also, check how much room you have on your counter. It looks very nice and professional despite its light weight. WLL has the best price available for these machines and the best customer service ever. As for Chris' comment I agree with it, the EC50 delivers very good! AP.
I Think the difference is that the EC100 can use the coffee pods.I own a EC50 and as far as I can tell,it does not use the pods.

Ozie Haralson and hiswife Jane have owned their Napier Avenue rental home since 1984. Now they say the road behind their home is littered with debris and that the county needs to do something about it.
"The road has been left to where it's completely overgrown, there's debris everywhere and it's being used as a dumping ground," said Haralson.
But according to Bill Causey with the Bibb County Engineering Department, the land behind this home is controlled by the homeowners on each side, even though it's not within their property lines. He said it was designed like this in the 1900s allowing homeowners access to the back of their property.
"If the alley were open, let's say it was open and the lot owners were using it. One guy decided on his end he was gonna put a fence up. He couldn't do that. It's there to be used jointly by the people that own property that touch it," said Causey.
He said it's complicated and they receive lots of calls about similar issues. He tries to explain to people that alleyways like this weren't intended for public use.
"If you live here, you really don't want the public coming through here, you don't really want this to be a public way because that brings problems," said Causey.
Haralson says he was never informed of this and has contacted the city and county but hasn't heard back.He said it's not right that homeowners are left to solve this issue.
Causey added that nobody pays taxes on the land.

Less is more. That is the theme of this month's Noncompete News, which addresses a decision by the Georgia Court of Appeals rendered just a few weeks ago. An insurance company entered into a written "confidentiality and non solicitation agreement" with one of its executives. A few years later, the executive decided to resign and form his own business. The executive informed the company that he was resigning and planned to open a competing business, but assured the company that he would honor his non-solicitation agreement. A few months after he left the insurance company to start his own business, the insurance company sued the former executive for, among other things, violation of the non-solicitation of customers provision.

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
Skiles lobbied Hinrich but Bulls won out
Chicago - Bucks coach Scott Skiles did his best lobbying job to get Kirk Hinrich to join the Milwaukee roster.
But in the end, the veteran free agent chose to return to the Chicago Bulls, where he played under Skiles from 2004-'07. Hinrich, who played for Atlanta last season, signed a two-year deal reportedly worth $8 million.
Now the 31-year-old Hinrich is starting at point guard in Chicago while the Bulls wait for all-star Derrick Rose to return from knee surgery later this season. Hinrich and the Bulls face the Bucks on Tuesday night in a preseason game at the United Center.
"He and I talked at length about it a couple times," Skiles said. "I understand. I love Kirk. He played hard and very well for me and we have a good relationship.
"But you know, we weren't dangling a starting job. With Derrick out, it's kind of Kirk's show right now. And obviously he lives here (in the Chicago area). There were some things that were against us a little bit. But I do know he struggled over it. When he called and told me what he had decided I totally understood."
If Hinrich had joined the Bucks, he knew he would be playing behind Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis. The Bucks had hoped to tempt him with a three-guard rotation.
But they still have veteran Beno Udrih to play that role and also signed veteran Marquis Daniels, who can play at small forward and shooting guard.
"On paper we're deep there," Skiles said. "But games aren't played on paper."
Skiles also said the Bucks hope rookie guard Doron Lamb, who is making steady progress, will return from a left elbow injury so they can evaluate him during the preseason.
Veteran Joel Przybilla did not play against Detroit on Saturday but Skiles said he planned to use the 7-foot-1 center against the Bulls. And third-year pro Larry Sanders will remain in the lineup as the starting center with veteran Samuel Dalembert coming off the bench.
"Larry has played well so we'll take a look at it again," Skiles said. "We'll probably take a look at a couple different things here in exhibition (play).
"It's pretty simple. He (Sanders) is just not trying to do too much. He's playing within himself and it's helpful for him. He's not making as many bad plays because he's not trying to do things that his skill set isn't able to do yet.
"That's always one of the tricky things as a young player. You're trying to figure out the NBA game and work on your own game but the actual game is not the time to experiment."

Great hiding places
posted 6 years ago
Cats love to climb up and snooze while off the floor. The castle is well padded and comfortable for them while they try out different levels. Love to see how they stretch out and relax on their little play castle.
Pros: Satisfies climbing and sleeping
Cons: none
