Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
I was a little suprised when I started this. I wasnt expecting the way the game played out (reminds me now of how Mass Effect works) and it was decent. The combat itself needs a little work, but I loved my playthrough of the game. Being a spy who gets turned on isnt a new concept, so the story is a little stale.

Providing Patrons with News, Entertainment and Sports is Easier for Businesses Through New DISH Bundles09:00 EDT Monday, September 23, 2013
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (Business Wire) -- Businesses now have an even better way to choose channels their customers need through new programming bundles from DISH. The new Business Complete and Complete Plus Sports bundles replace the numerous packages DISH previously offered, giving them a simplified solution for ordering TV service.
"Business customers serve unique sets of patrons and stakeholders, and we want to make it as easy as possible for them to deliver quality, compelling programming," said Robert Grosz, vice president of Commercial Services at DISH. "We developed these bundles to provide a simplified, competitive option, and these can be combined with additional sports programming like the PAC-12 Network."
DISH's two programming offers are "Business Complete," with 137 channels, and "Business Complete Plus Sports," which includes the 137 channels plus an additional 21 top sports channels. They are designed to serve all businesses from offices, fitness centers, salons, medical offices and auto repair shops to bars and restaurants.
Additionally, DISH is the only satellite-TV provider offering the PAC-12 Network to bars, restaurants and other businesses. With college football season in full-swing, establishments that deliver patrons access to their favorite games will have a competitive advantage for drawing fans and alumni of PAC-12 teams, which includes two of the top five ranked teams in the country.
Pricing varies slightly based upon public and private viewing settings. More information on the bundles and DISH's offerings for businesses can be found by visiting http://commercial.dish.com/.

Recently, I've been researching Cogswell graduates to add to a contact list for an alumni reunion. I was pleasantly surprised and amazed at some of the names that cropped up—not only were there an impressive number of graduates working in the industry, quite a few held job titles like Lead Animator, CEO, Art Director, and even more still owned their own companies. Previous to doing this research, I'd had no idea they existed; and I thought I'd share their job titles as a resource to other Cogswell students.
In the Los Angeles and Bay Area regions, we have a number of alumni working at Disney, DreamWorks, EA, Sony Animation, Cryptic, Activision and other large, well known studios. They are storyboard artists, technical artists, designers, animators, layout artists, riggers and hold tons of other positions. I was blown away to learn that, among others, one of our alumni is a Lead Animator at EA games. In addition, we also have alumni with positions such as: Art Director at Sony Animation Entertainment; Lead Lighter/Compositor at DreamWorks, Lead/Senior designer at Crystal Dynamics; Vice President of Production at Toonbox Entertainment; President/CEO at Logigear; Broadcast Designer at NBC; Supervising Engineer at Warner Brothers; and the list goes on. Alumni from all degree programs are talented leaders.
We are a very small college, and yet it seems we have a very large amount of alumni in comparison holding impressive positions within the industry. Most students aren't even aware of the credits that our graduates hold. Personally, I feel like Cogswell College is a bit of a hidden gem in the Silicon Valley—not everyone knows that we're here, but those who do find Cogswell know that they have stumbled across something unique.

Lawmakers, Branstad Show No Appetite for Gas-Tax Increase
An increase in the gas tax next legislative session seems unlikely given the state's current political and economic state of affairs.
Both Republicans and Democrats concede that there is a growing gap between the revenue produced by the state each year for road and bridge maintenance and what is needed by the Iowa Department of Transportation to complete several much-needed infrastructure projects. However, it would be an unpopular idea to raise the gas tax in the midst of a stagnant economy.
"I do not anticipate there will be any movement on a gas tax this session just because of the economic situation that exists in Iowa," said Representative Dave Tjepkes (R-Gowrie), a retired state trooper who will chair the House Transportation Committee next session.
Tim Albrecht, a spokesperson for Branstad, said the governor would not be in favor of a gas tax increase. "The governor does not believe we need a fuel-tax increase and does not support raising taxes during a recession," Albrecht said.
Albrecht said Branstad still believes road projects are a priority, but he wants to fund them by finding efficiencies in the current state budget, freeing up funds for use.
Scott Newhard, executive vice president of the Associated General Contractors of Iowa, said he and his organization will push for an increase in the gas tax this year, but he is realistic about the likely results.
"I would say that the climate of the electorate in November was one that was not supportive of tax increases in general, and very skeptical of government spending," Newhard said. "I absolutely feel that the needs of highway-infrastructure funding will be discussed, but I don't know if they will pass a gas-tax increase this year."
The gas tax in Iowa has stayed the same since 1989. Iowa's tax on regular gasoline is 21 cents per gallon, and its tax on ethanol-blended gasoline is 19 cents per gallon, according to the Iowa Department of Revenue. After federal taxes are figured in, Iowans currently pay 40.4 cents per gallon of gasoline, the 32nd-highest gas-tax rate in the nation, according to October figures from the American Petroleum Institute.
According to Time-21 projections submitted in 2008, there will be $3.5 billion a year in public-roadway maintenance needs in the state through the year 2026. According to the same study, Iowa is projected to generate $2 billion a year in revenues available for projects. The DOT has also found that gas-tax revenues are flattening, as the economic conditions lead motorists to drive less and as vehicles become more fuel-efficient.
Tjepkes' counterpart on the Senate Transportation Committee, Senator Tom Rielly (D-Oskaloosa), said this revenue gap has many sources. A large part of it, however, is that gas-tax numbers have remained at a late-1980s level while construction costs have gone up over time.
Rielly said he and Tjepkes have a "great working relationship," and that he's hopeful they will be able to work in a bipartisan manner to improve the state's roads. He said it's too early for him to tell how serious discussions will be about any gas-tax increase this session due to the economy and the high turnover from November's elections, but he wants the discussions to happen.
"I want to keep everything on the table, I want to keep the dialogue going," said Rielly, who backed a gas-tax increase last session. "We need to have a good, solid conversation on how we get these roads fixed. We have to find out how we can do it the most efficiently with the least financial impact on Iowans."
Suit on Retention Ballots Now Aimed at Future Elections
A move in court aimed at preventing three Iowa Supreme Court justices from leaving when their terms end Dececember 31 has been withdrawn.
"Nothing is being done that will affect the status of the anticipated vacancies in office on January 1," Polk County District Court Judge Michael Huppert said after a court hearing. "Bottom line is: There's nothing from my office that's going to prevent that vacancy from taking place."
Chief Justice Marsha Ternus and Justices Michael Streit and David Baker were ousted from office in the November 2 judicial-retention election. Attorneys Thomas W. George, John P. Roehrick, and Carlton Salmons filed a lawsuit in Polk County District Court contending that the retention vote was illegal because the Iowa Constitution mandates the votes for judges be on a separate ballot.
The attorneys initially filed for a temporary injunction to prevent the three justices from leaving office next week. But Roehrick withdrew that motion, noting that state attorneys representing Secretary of State Michael Mauro, Ternus, Streit, and Baker resisted the injunction.
"Basically, the Supreme Court justices in their official positions – not Ternus, Baker and Streit – but in their official positions as justices were resisting the application for an injunction to enjoin the election results from going forward," Roehrick said. "Since the Supreme Court's official position was to resist that, we saw no reason to go forward with an injunction keeping the judges in office, so we withdrew it."
The lawsuit will now focus on whether judges should be on a separate ballot in future judicial-retention elections, and it no longer has the potential to affect 2010 election results.
"We still are leaving for future litigation the issue of the constitutionality of the separate ballot for judges – district, associate and Supreme Court," Roehrick said. "That is still the primary issue: How do we conduct those elections in Iowa in the future?"
Placing judges on a separate ballot could affect the outcome of future judicial-retention elections.
"It possibly could," Roehrick said. "It's going to call attention to the positions of the judiciary and [how] they really are separate and independent from legislative and executive, which they're supposed to be."
The names of judges up for retention are currently placed on the back of the ballot. Roehrick said he and the other two plaintiffs are asking the courts to interpret the constitution, which calls for separate ballots.
"We believe that means two ballots," he said.
Economy a Focus, Weather a Factor in Special Election for Senate District 48
Iowa Senate District 48 candidates Joni Ernst and Ruth Smith and party leaders say overcoming the election-season hangover will be the key to victory in the January 4 special election to fill the seat left open by Lieutenant Governor-elect Reynolds.
Smith, a Lamoni Democrat, and Ernst, a Red Oak Republican, both said this week that it will be a struggle to get their messages out in the state's largest district, especially with winter weather and the holiday season looming.
Ernst, the Montgomery County auditor, said she's running radio and newspaper ads to spread her message in the shortened campaign period, but she will still focus mostly on person-to-person contact in the district with more than 40,000 registered voters.
"It will be difficult and what I'm relying on very heavily is personal phone calls out to the Republican constituents and voters in the district and encouraging them to go to the polls and vote," Ernst said. "We're sending fliers out, and I'm hoping to do some door-knocking, but because of the condensed time frame, we don't have time to get out to all the communities."
Ernst said she's also expecting help from activists outside of the district. "It's been overwhelming and wonderful," Ernst said. "I have a lot of support from the Republican party from the local level all the way to the state level and from elected officials."
Smith is also expected to receive support from outside the district, although she downplayed it. Iowa Democratic Party Chair Sue Dvorsky said her organization will be supporting Smith with whatever resources she needs.
"I believe the local supporters, regardless of party affiliation, matter the most," Smith said. "My run for the state Senate is not about the Democratic party or the Democratic platform. My run is about making changes that work for southern Iowa. I do have support from the state party, but it is not the predominant factor in my campaign."
Smith's message is economically focused. She said property taxes are too high, government regulation is out-of-touch, and infrastructure is inadequate in southern Iowa. She also said she'd also like to propose pieces of legislation to manage the deer population, to expand the rights of dependent elders, and to create an unbiased resource for reliable candidate information.
Smith ran against Reynolds in 2008 and received 43 percent of the vote, despite Democrats accounting for just 26 percent of registered voters in the district.
The economy will also be Ernst's focus during the campaign. She noted that Montgomery County has the second-highest unemployment rate in the state, and she's concerned about opportunities being there for her 11-year-old daughter.
"We have really hard-working people here and they want to work," Ernst said. "They have their families here, they don't want to leave the area, and I'm hoping if we see a change in the economy they'll continue to raise their family here."
Despite the Republican edge – 38 percent of voters in the district are registered Republicans – Ernst isn't putting herself in the victory column yet.
"I would love to say that yes, it will be mine, but I will not take anything for granted so I will be campaigning very heavily, and this is a seat I have to earn," Ernst said. "I don't want to think that just because we are a heavily Republican district, it's mine. It's not a done deal until when the polls close on January 4."

I have been in education for many years, previously having been a Center Director, taught preschool, taught special needs, and worked as a substitute teacher for all grades including Special Education. For the last 7 years I have owned an after-school and educational summer camp program and am currently working on my Master's in Early Childhood Education. I am presently employed as a Fulton County Middle School Teacher.
I believe every child can learn, and it is up to the teacher to figure out how to teach to the needs of individual children. Children are not all the same, and lessons need to be differentiated to meet the needs a particular child requires. I like to make learning fun, interactive and technologically enhanced. If students find the material interesting, they will work to the best of their ability. I have been in education for many years, previously having been a Center Director, taught preschool, taught special needs, and worked as a substitute teacher for all grades including Special Education.

Group rates and multiple hourly rates can be discussed.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I have experience working with children with ADD and ADHD. Differentiation is key when working with any special needs child, and I believe that lessons can be adjusted and re-designed in order to accommodate the child's needs and still obtain the same level of knowledge and understanding as "cookie cutter" lessons. When a child is engaged and interested, it is much easier to teach complex concepts. I have taught preschool and worked as a substitute teacher for all grades.
I have extensive knowledge in Old Testament and New Testament studies. I am currently attending Concordia University Colloquy Program for Teaching Certification in the Lutheran Church. I am able to teach the bible nondenominationally.
I am certified in Early Childhood Education as well as Middle Grades. I hold a GA State Teaching Certificate certifying me to teach Preschool through 8th grade.
I have worked with all areas of Windows and am proficient in Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I have created many multimedia power point presentations and have taken computer classes for educational planning and 21st Century Technology.
I have taught Phonics to low level readers for many years. I am also beginning my Masters Degree in Reading in August.
I have experience in public speaking because I not only had to take a class in college, I was also the owner of a summer camp and had to speak on a regular basis to groups of people. Furthermore, being a teacher I am routinely speaking to large groups of students and faculty and giving presentations.
I am qualified to tutor students for the Regents because I am a certified teacher and my degree is in Language Arts. I have experience tutoring high school students for the SAT/ACT.
I was born and raised Roman Catholic and am currently Lutheran. I am currently completing certification in the Lutheran Church as a certified Synodical Teacher. I have much knowledge regarding many religions.
I can teach organizational skills to students who need some extra help. I taught preschool and worked as a substitute teacher for all grades.

Im hispanic. And i dont like this doctor. I stood with him for 2 min and that was it. I told him to checked my neck to do things and nothing. Me as a new patient i believe he was supposed to send me to get a ultrasound or something and nothing was done. I decide to go with another doctor.
the way he spoke to us on every appt. was very frustrating. my husband is diabetic, and he got him in a new pump, he never got the right training and the doc talked to him like he was stupid! he's English is bad, and his attitude worse. we hated every appt because of the intense of his attitude!
Dr. Varon, shows indifference to patients that are not hispanic, and so does his ill mannered office staff, if you dont speak spanish...dont go to this office for any medical reason....HISPANIC they make you feel like CRAP....this is the first doctor, I have ever seen. greet a patient with a frown on his face, and a bad attitude
Dr. Varon is very professional and polite...he is great at talking through the biopsy and exams and putting you at ease making you feel relax and if I had to wait I would because its worth the wait...after reading some of his negative reviews I can definitely say I DO NOT agree with them and would recommend his service and staff without hesitation.
The "lady" who does the schedule, "Jessy", has very bad manners, She cancel my appointment without reason and did not notify me. She treated me like trash when I as her why she did it. I want to let Dr. Varon know that this "lady" is destroying his bussiness. I do think that Dr. Varon is an Excellent physician but i will never ever will be back to his office
Lamentablemente mi experiencia con el Dr. Varon ha sido muy negativa. Por ua diferencia de cinco minutos en mi cita que tenia previamente se nego atenderme cuando en realidaad era para informarme del resultado de una biobcia que ya me habia realizado es un momento difisil y muy importante para mi, me informa atravez de su personal que regrese otro dia el Dr. Varon carece de profecionalismo sencivilidad y trato a sus pacientes. Mi recomendacion para el es Negativa les recomiendo a todos que antes de ver al Dr. Varon busquen otro Dr. con mas Vocacion' Apesar de ests penosa situacion con el Dr. su personal ha sido muy atento en todo momento.

Conrad Murray Breaks His Silence In Telephone Interview
Story By: Larry Stine
Originally Published on: 4/3/2013
It's been over a year since Conrad Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Michael Jackson's death. Now he's talking, as the trial in a wrongful lawsuit begins. Ed Payne tells us what he has to say about his role in Jackson's death and the pending suit. Conrad Murray is breaking his silence. Tuesday night, he spoke in a telephone interview with CNN'S Anderson Cooper. "At this time, I have not been subpoenaed, and I am not interested in giving testimony in the trial. I will invoke my Fifth Amendment right because at this time, there is an appeal that is in progress and depends on what happens with that," Murray said. Michael Jackson's mother and children are suing concert promoter AEG Live for what they call the negligent hiring of Murray as the singer prepared for a comeback. Murray says his approach was not conventional, but he had good intentions when he treated Jackson's insomnia with Propofol. "Nobody knows but I basically was doing my endeavor to get Michael away from propofol. Yes, indeed, I did order propofol to his home but I was not the one that brought propofol into his home. I met him with his own stash," Murray said. Murray also talked about his relationship with the late singer. He says Jackson confided in him about his family. "Michael said to me I no longer want to be a bank for my family. All we see is the continuation of that," Murray said. Ina bizarre moment, Murray also compared himself to the performer, saying they both had hard lives and sang a song by Nat King Cole. "He envied all the lucky boys but goodness knows he didn't want a lot," Murray said. Murray's expected release date is in late October. If he is released then, he would have served half his sentence, unless the sheriff decides to free him earlier because of jail overcrowding.

Overnight RV Parking is OK
Been here many times. Reviewers are right, lot is a large undulating paved lot on the hill a good half mile from the Casino entrance. There are some places where you can get level, though they are the first to go. Shuttle bus is convenient and we have always enjoyed all the casino personnel including the security guys who will check you in. Check in is good, for your protection, as they don't want permanent "campers" staying in the lot, nor do you.
Inside the casino, VP machines have so-so pay tables. Live poker is nice with fairly good activity. Restaurants are on the pricey side as Casinos go but fairly good quality. Comps are dreadful as they are at Foxwoods as well. You are competing with big city whales for their attention, and you will unlikely impress them with your play, unless of course you are a whale yourself.
We have stayed there numerous times over the past few years. It is a big paved parking lot that is not very level. You must checkin by calling the number on the signs and place the permit in your window. The staff is very nice. The shuttle service runs every 15-20 minutes and is reliable. It would be difficult to walk to the casino.
It is okay for dogs but there is not much grassy area around.
Wifi is available throughout the casino area. Food is good.
We found that the information posted in June 2009 to be still correct. We were lucky enough to stop during a promotion where if we showed them a Player's Card from an Atlantic City casino - we used our Total Rewards card -and you signed up as a new player you received $100 in free slot play! This was absolutely the best sign up offer we have ever seen. There still does not seem to be a limit of how long you can stay in the RV lot. You just need to let security know. I would definitely come back here again.
report from Mark M., June 6, 2009
We spent Memorial Day weekend 2009 at Mohegan Sun. Looks like they're doing construction, so their old RV parking area is no more. Now there is a turn off at the first traffic light as you approach the casino. The road leads to two lots for RV and oversize vehicle parking. There first lot on the right did not exclude RV's, but when we were there it was almost all tour busses and a couple of trucks.
Follow the road down the hill, then turn left up the hill, and at the top is a second lot. This seems to be the preferred parking area for RV's. Most of the time there was a security vehicle there, and the guard issues you a permit to park. No fee or anything, you just say how long you plan to stay. Mohegan Sun has some of the most friendly security people I've ever met.
The parking lot is not overly level. Spaces nearest the road are a little noisy, but middle spaces and those near the hill are more quiet. Not a lot of green around to exercise the dog, but there was some.
No more easy walk to the casino, I'm afraid, but shuttle buses ran every 10 or 15 minutes during the day, though less often at night.
- report from Dick B., October 14, 2008
I recently stayed in the RV parking lot at the Mohegan Sun casino in CT. Lots of room but the parking lot is deceptively unlevel. I see big rigs with blocks under the jacks to give more reach. Beautiful casino. There is no check in.

Taxonomic note
Goura scheepmakeri and G. sclaterii (del Hoyo and Collar 2014) were previously lumped as G. scheepmakeri following Sibley and Monroe (1990, 1993).
75 cm. Huge, terrestrial pigeon with fan-like sagittal crest. Unpatterned pale grey crest and rich maroon breast. Similar spp. Hybridises with two parapatric congeners where their ranges meet: Victoria Crowned-pigeon G. victoria has white tips to crest and less maroon on lower breast, Western Crowned-pigeon G. cristata has plain grey underparts and maroon mantle and wing-coverts. Voice Foraging flocks communicate with quiet, resonating booms. Hints Usually only seen with the help of local guides in remote uninhabited areas.
Distribution and population
Goura scheepmakeri occurs in the southern lowlands of New Guinea, (Papua, formerly Irian Jaya, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea). It has not been recorded west of Etna Bay and is absent from much, if not all, of southern Trans-Fly (N. Stronach in litt. 1994) but ranges to the far east of New Guinea at Orangerie Bay (Coates 1985, Beehler et al. 1986, King and Nijboer 1994). Although it is rare or extirpated around most villages, it has a huge range and is still locally common in remote regions of Papua and Western and Gulf Provinces in Papua New Guinea (Beehler et al. 1994, K. D. Bishop in litt. 1994, 2000, I. Burrows in litt. 1994, P. Gregory in litt. 1994) and was found to be fairly common in the Lakekamu Basin even where hunted regularly (Beehler et al. 1994, B. Beehler in litt. 2012).
It inhabits undisturbed dry and flooded forest, often alluvial, in the lowlands to 500 m (Coates 1985, Beehler et al. 1986). It feeds on the ground in small flocks of 2-10 birds (historically up to 30 birds [Ramsay 1879]) and roosts in trees. Captive birds start breeding from 15 months old, lay a single egg, and tend to the fledgling for some months after hatching (King and Nijboer 1994).
This large species is prized by hunters for meat and, to a lesser extent, for its feathers (Beehler 1985). It has been hunted to extinction throughout much of its range in the south-east (Schodde 1978, Coates 1985, G. R. Kula in litt. 1988). It has become extirpated from the vicinity of some transmigration settlements in Papua where it had survived constant hunting from indigenous people (King and Nijboer 1994). However, the species is fairly difficult to hunt without a shotgun (which are essentially no longer available in New Guinea) as it flushes at considerable distance (c.40 m) and perches high in the middle-story, out of the reach of hunters with bows (B. Beehler in litt. 2012). The species was found to be fairly common in the Lakekamu Basin even where hunted regularly (Beehler et al. 1994, B. Beehler in litt. 2012), suggesting it may be able to tolerate some hunting pressure. Lowland forests, particularly on the flat terrain favoured by this species, are threatened by logging and the development of oil palm plantations, and although its tolerance of logged forest is poorly known, logging roads open up access to hunters (King and Nijboer 1994, I. Burrows in litt. 1994, P. Gregory in litt. 1994, B. Beehler in litt. 2012), as does oil and gas exploration in Papua (K. D. Bishop in litt. 1994, 2000). Capture for trade may be significant (King and Nijboer 1994).
Conservation Actions Underway
CITES Appendix II. Education and research programmes are planned in Papua New Guinea (King and Nijboer 1994). It is protected by law in Papua New Guinea. Conservation Actions Proposed
Survey western extreme of range. Determine population size and density in study areas such as Lakekamu and Kikori Basins. Assess hunting levels through discussion with local hunters. Investigate population trends through discussion with local hunters. Ascertain tolerance of logged forest. Monitor numbers traded. Monitor population in study areas. Establish more community-based conservation areas in lowlands. Enforce protection in uninhabited reserve areas. Launch public awareness programmes to reduce hunting. Utilise as a flagship species in ecotourism ventures.

YIELD: Serves 4 to 6
Arrange the zucchini in a jelly-roll pan, drizzle it with the oil, and roast it in the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it is golden. While the zucchini is roasting, discard the casings from the sausage, in a heavy skillet cook the meat over moderate heat, stirring and breaking up the lumps, until it is no longer pink, and transfer it with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. In a large bowl stir together the zucchini, the sausage, the mint, the yogurt, and salt and pepper to taste. In a kettle of boiling salted water boil the rotelle until it is al dente, drain it well, and toss it with the zucchini mixture.

Originally written on Project Spurs | Last updated 1/5/13
The San Antonio Spurs (27-9) defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (15-20) tonight in San Antonio extending their home-winning streak to 10 games in a row. The Spurs had six players in double-figures and were led by Tony Parker's 20 points, five assists, and two rebound night. Tim Duncan finished with 16 points, Tiago Splitter with 12, Danny Green with 13, Manu Ginobili finished with 19 and Gary Neal had 12. For a complete recap of the first half, click here, but here is how the second half went including some notes and quotes from the teams. Third Quarter: Stat Leader: Tony Parker with 20 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds. Recap: If the Spurs thought the 76ers were going to go quietly into the night, then they had another thing coming. The Sixers closed the halftime gap with the Spurs which caused Gregg Popovich to call an early timeout. However, the Spurs thwarted any 76ers' comeback. Spurs shot 33% from the 3-point line, had 36 points in the paint to Philly's 28. Spurs had 38 rebounds to 76ers 30. The Spurs also got things done at the free-throw line shooting 88.2%. Score: Spurs 81, 76ers 63. Fourth Quarter: Stat Leader: Tony Parker 20 points, 5 assists, and 2 rebounds Recap: The Spurs continued to pour it on the 76ers as the team never gave Philly any chance at a comeback. The Spurs were just out-hustling Philly, making the shots, and basically put on a clinic. Final: Spurs 109, 76ers 86. Notes: Duncan passed Adrian Dantley for 24th place on the NBA's all-time scorer's list. Spurs once again were hot from the free throw line shooting 82.6%. Biggest lead for the Spurs was 25. Quotes: 76ers coach Doug Collins on the Spurs "When you play them, you better play every possession till the end." 76ers coach Collins on Spurs' Popovich "He's a brilliant coach." 76ers coach Doug Collins on the Spurs "They run their offense harder, cut harder, and move the ball better than any team in the NBA." Spurs' Popovich on beating the 76ers "Tonight we just did a great job getting them off the three-point line" Spurs' Popovich on Manu Ginobili "He's definitely back." Spurs' Popovich on Manu's health "He's had to slowly get back all his athleticism." Spurs' Duncan on Manu's dunk "It looked good in warm-ups. It was a great move down the lane and it was great to see him put one down." Spurs' Duncan admits Manu hit him with the ball today "Yeah, he hit me (with the ball) between the forehead today. I wasn't ready for it." Spurs' Ginobili on his health "I've been back for more than a month." 76ers' Spencer Hawes on the Spurs "You can't breathe for a second. They're a good team" 76ers' Spencer Hawes on the Spurs "There's a lot we can learn from a team like that." 76ers' Jrue Holiday on Spurs' execution "I think the way they execute with so many veterans on the team helps out the younger guys."

Re: I know nobody really knows but is a GTX480 going to be faster then a HD5970
Just a quick FYI for anyone who's interested:
And i quote
Ending the 25th of January, nVidia's Q4 period saw a year-on-year drop in revenue from $1.2 billion (£831 million) to $481.1 million (£333 million), a huge 60 per cent decrease. Annual results didn't see quite such mammoth reductions, nVidia recording a 16 per cent year-on-year decrease, from $4.1 billion (£2.83 billion) to $3.4 billion (£2.35 billion).
These revenues equated to a $147 million (£102 million) Q4 and a $30 million (£21 million) annual net loss. Compared to some companies in the technology arena, nVidia looks to have escaped lightly, although that's no consolation to nVidia and its shareholders I'll warrant.
In Nvidia CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang's words: "November fell off a cliff," and CFO MArvin Burkett described December as having been even worse. The implication is that the graphics industry is being especially hard hit by the recession, which is especially bad for nVidia which only makes graphics products - unlike rivals Intel and AMD which have fingers in other pies.
Nvidia hopes to have those fortunes reversed its 9400M notebook platform and Ion desktop systems, once the latter is actually commercially available (should it ever be). So far the uptake of 9400M has been relegated to Apple's latest MacBook line-up, though many other manufacturers are supposed to have systems in the pipeline.
It's going to be interesting to see how nVidia copes in these difficult times.
Not so rosy afterall,but i guess you'll disrecredit these are rumors even when it's Nvidia's own CEO that said it quite clearly,and the fell of the cliff in november part is curiously not much after ATI launched their new cards on the market.....Just saying.

is it possible to write a UDB/DP timer? I need a simple down counter which loads it's count value from hardware register (not written by CPU), which is instanciated in verilog and written from other (DP) stage. At zero count a simple hit signal has to be generated.
The DP has to read this external (parallel in) count value and increment them - using this as A0 DP register, which requires write access to the external one. Following the PSoC TRM this seems not to be possible easy. I can get values from ALU back (parallel out) but this must be written back to the external register connected to parallel in. Is this possible? Which other options do I have.
The goal is to have no CPU/DMA intervention!

grunt tasks for deploying to s3, sending data to ducksboard, and snockets.
a simple collection of common javascript build tasks for grunt.
Install this grunt plugin next to your project's grunt.js gruntfile with:
npm install grunt-barkeep
Then add this line to your project's
grunt.js gruntfile:
grunt-barkeep is bundled with the following additonal tasks:
Generate docco documentation from JavaScript files.
Run headless jasmine tests on the command line using jasmine-dom.
Build a dependency tree of source files for the
concat and
min grunt tasks using snockets. Snockets is a JavaScript dependency parser similar to Ruby's sprockets.
An experimental task that determines what files to upload or delete from an Amazon S3 buckets when mirroring a local directory. It is meant to be run before the
s3 task in the grunt-s3 project.
Sends file size data to ducksboard for reporting purposes. Useful for tracking the size of your JavaScript web applications over time.
Delete the files and/or directories of your choice.
See grunt.js in the barkeep directory.
In lieu of a formal style guide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using grunt.

Internalization of OrdersOctober 17th, 2010 by eyal | Filed under Stock Market, Trading Resources. | Print This Post
There is a fascinating speech by InteractiveBrokers founder, Thomas Peterffy to the World Federation of Exchanges in Paris posted on IB's website. It is highly recommended for a look into how the brokers and markets work today from a technical perspective, how your orders are treated and why there is a big problem brewing with transparency, trust, fairness in dealings of exchanges and brokers and ability to handle market meltdowns such as the May flash crash. He seems to take stance that the troubles we've been seeing with flash crashes isn't rooted in algo trading / HFT but with fragmentation of exchanges, clearing houses and ubiquity of internalizers. Here is the gist of it, the full speech is available here in PDF.
The root of the problem, as always, is short-sighted greed on the part of the brokers. Transparent commissions are not enough for them. They want to take more from their customers but without the customers seeing exactly what it is that they are paying. This is done by what is called internalization, which is easiest to illustrate with OTC products. The banks simply take the opposite side of the customers' orders at prices that leave the banks with undisclosed but huge profits.
How do we know that the profits are huge? Just look at the banks' quarterly financial reports on derivatives dealings. Even the more modest estimates exceed $100 billion per year, worldwide. Customers are on the other side of those trades. Customer losses are on the other side of those bank profits. The amazing thing is that those banks are able to convince their customers that this is good for them and moving these contracts on to the exchanges would harm the customers.
It should be shocking, but it probably is not, that according to the Rule 606 reports mandated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, no major online broker, with the sole exception of Interactive Brokers, sent more than 5% of its orders to an organized exchange. More than 95% of their orders go to internalizers!
These brokers ignore the exchanges and sell the orders to internalizers, thereby avoiding exchange fees and getting a nice little payment from the internalizers in return. This payment for order flow adds up to real money after millions of orders are taken into account. The internalizers are supposedly matching the best prices prevailing at the exchanges, so that they can argue that the customers get the best prices.
But do they really? Of course not. If they did, an independent study would not have found that the one broker that actually routes the vast majority of its orders to public exchanges — and I will not name this broker again — obtains executions that are on the average 28 cents better per 100 shares in the U.S., and an absolutely stunning 2.84 Euros better per 100 shares in Europe.
The steps he proposes are mainly 3:
1. Forcing brokers to route to exchanges
2. Defragmenting the exchanges.
3. Consolidate clearing houses. Peterffy raises some good questions here about liquidity, solvency and ability of small clearing houses to handle crises.
