Sprint will be doing maintenance work on one of the routers that one of our T1's terminate on. This will happen June 10th between midnight and 6am. The traffic is normally light enough at that time that the two remaining T1's should be able to carry it so this really should not have any impact.

This is the Republican Field
Quin: I agree that Jen Rubin's post hits the mark; this was indeed "not a day to be proud of the GOP field." But I feel you aren't sufficiently succumbing to despair. I hate to break it to you, but this is the GOP field, and neither Bobby Jindal nor anyone else is going to ride to the rescue. There's a key phrase missing from your feature urging Jindal to jump in: filing deadlines.
The deadline to get on the ballot in Florida is October 31; in South Carolina, November 1. Unless a candidate has literally already begun the process, it's too late to jump in. And if a candidate had begun the process, we'd know about it -- staffers and lawyers would already have been hired. This Politico report from a couple months ago (which focused on Sarah Palin's non-candidacy) went over this; here's the key quote:
"It isn't inconceivable that somebody could get into the race as late as the first or second week in October and manage to get it all done," provided they knew what they were doing, said Matt Seyfang, a Democratic lawyer who's handled ballot-access and delegate issues for five presidential campaigns, including Bill Clinton's 1992 effort - which didn't get started until October 1991. But any later than that, he said, would probably be impossible.
So Republicans are stuck with the current crop of remarkably weak candidates. And incidentally, this also means that Obama -- unlike all three presidents who lost their reelection bids in the past three quarters of a century -- won't be facing a primary challenge.

Former Sag Harbor resident Frank Everett Bennett passed away at his retirement community of Crystal Pointe near Dunnellon, Fla. on January 16, 2012.
Born in Sag Harbor in June 1935, he was the only son of Louis and Hilda Loper Bennett. He attended local schools, graduating from Pierson High School in 1953. He began working at the Sag Harbor Express and joined the National Guard where he served for six years. In 1960 he married the former Barbara Stephens of Amagansett, took at job at the Hampton Press in Bridgehampton and moved into the family home on Madison Street which his father had built.
He joined the Sag Harbor Fire Department in 1970, holding several positions in the Montauk Hose Co. When failing eyesight made fighting fires more dangerous he took on the duties of Chief Dispatcher. His familiar cadence of "K double E 261" was a dinnertime occurrence for many years. He was extremely proud of the fact that he was chosen Fireman of the Year in 1972 and his son, Bill, received the same award 25 years later in 2007.
In retirement in Florida, he was a director of the Homeowners Association and also enjoyed playing pool each week in the Moose Lodge and weekend card games with friends.
Mr. Bennett is survived by Barbara, his wife of 51 years, daughter Karen Philips (Al), son Bill, daughter Amy Davis (Mike), grandchildren Rachel Sachtleben, Samantha Davis and Johnathan Davis, sister Betty Herman, nephew Don Herman and his tri-colored mini Cocker Spaniel Lucie.
Memorial donations may be made to the Sag Harbor Volunteer Ambulance Corps., PO Box 2725, Sag Harbor, NY 11963.

Action/Adventure, Romance
On a train journey in Warsaw, psychiatrist Shaina meets Himanshu, who is a police officer from India to discuss their prospective marriage. Both are reluctant to enter into an arranged union but become friends and strike a deep conversation where Shaina reveals her previous relationship with the eccentric Devi, a man who lived only for his 'Kick' aka an adrenaline rush . Despite his idiosyncrasies they embark on a whirlwind romance, until one day he breaks up with her for a new 'Kick' and walks away never to return. Himanshu in turn regales her with his glorious escapades as an officer but mentions that he has finally met his match, an intelligent thief. What they are both unaware of is that their stories have one thing in common, Devi. He returns to their lives under the pretext of having lost his memory. Behind it all, is a deeper mystery and an uncompromising mission for which Devi is ready to lose his life.

Hi there, I have been struggling with the interpretation of the SOR annotation. I do get that a higher value is the sign of a strand bias and that this value is never negative.
I did read the SOR annotation documention but still cannot figure out how you calculate the SOR.
Here is one of my example where a SB is present for sure REF + strand = 2185 reads REF - strand = 5 reads ALT + strand = 7 reads ALT - strand = 2370 reads.
When I calculate "R" as indicated in the documentation, I obtain a very high value of 147 955. But for this variant in the VCF file, SOR = 11.382
How is the 11.382 obtained ? Could you please help me in understanding the computation ?
Thanks Manon
I need to apply hard filters to my data. In cases where I have lower coverage I plan to use the
Fisher Strand annotation, and in higher coverage variant calls,
SOR (using a JEXL expression to switch between them:
The variant call below (some annotations snipped), which is from a genotyped gVCF from HaplotypeCaller (using a BQSR'ed BAM file), looks well supported (high
QD, high
MQ, zero
MQ0). However, there appears to be some strand bias (
In this instance the filter example above would be applied.
Is this filtering out a true positive? And what kind of cut-offs should I be using for
FS and
The snipped annotations
ReadPosRankSum=-1.809 and
BaseQRankSum=-0.8440 for this variant also indicate minor bias that the evidence to support this variant call also has some bias (the variant appears near the end of reads in low quality bases, compared to the reads supporting the reference allele).
This is part of a larger hard filter I'm applying to a set of genotyped gVCFs called from HaplotypeCaller.
I'm filtering
HomRef positions using this JEXL filter:
vc.getGenotype("%sample%").isHomRef() ? ( vc.getGenotype("%sample%").getAD().size == 1 ? (DP < 10) : ( ((DP - MQ0) < 10) || ((MQ0 / (1.0 * DP)) >= 0.1) || MQRankSum > 3.2905 || ReadPosRankSum > 3.2905 || BaseQRankSum > 3.2905 ) ) : false
And filtering
HomVar positions using this JEXL:
vc.getGenotype("%sample%").isHomVar() ? ( vc.getGenotype("%sample%").getAD().0 == 0 ? ( ((DP - MQ0) < 10) || ((MQ0 / (1.0 * DP)) >= 0.1) || QD < 5.0 || MQ < 30.0 ) : ( BaseQRankSum < -3.2905 || MQRankSum < -3.2905 || ReadPosRankSum < -3.2905 || (MQ0 / (1.0 * DP)) >= 0.1) || QD < 5.0 || (DP < 20 ? FS > 60.0 : SOR > 3.5) || MQ < 30.0 || QUAL < 100.0 ) ) : false
My goal is true positive variants only and I have high coverage data, so the filtering should be relatively stringent. Unfortunately I don't have a database I could use to apply VQSR, henceforth the comprehensive filtering strategy.
Hi, again, thanks a lot for the amazing workshop in Brussels! I have a question on dealing with strand bias, regarding the SB flag in the vcf file: The value of SB (strand bias) is calculated by Fisher exact test, using a 2X2 table that contains the reference, non-reference, fwd and reverse depths. Playing a little with the numbers given to Fisher exact test through web calculator I noticed that combinations which seem as clear strand bias receive non-significant value (e.g. 30,1,110,2 for ref-fwd, ref-reverse, non-ref-fwd, non-ref-reverse receive p-value of 0.52 or 2.84 when phred-scaled). Such variant are therefore considered as unbiased. The cases that are defined as bias are ones where 3 out of the 4 values are similar to each and only one is extremely different. As far as I understand, cases as the one I mentioned should be referred as biased. Do you recommend using this strand bias value and filter variants based on it?
I have seen the definition of strand bias on this site (below) but I need a little clarification. Does the FS filter (a) highlight instances where reads are only present on a single strand and contain a variant (as may occur toward the end of exome capture regions) or does it (b) specifically look for instances where there are reads on both strands but the variant allele is disproportionately represented on one strand (as might be indicative of a false positive), or does it (c) do both?
I had thought it did (b) but have encountered some disagreement.
** How much evidence is there for Strand Bias (the variation being seen on only the forward or only the reverse strand) in the reads? Higher SB values denote more bias (and therefore are more likely to indicate false positive calls.
The Strand Bias (SB) value on the vcf file looks so difference from the gatk1.5 & 2.1 1. On the gatk 1.5, SB=0 or 0.1 is acceptable, the smaller SB the better ... etc 2. On gatk 2.1 SB~-6.1e03 ???
My question is what is cut-off SB value (acceptable!)
Thanks, Q
How to get all SNPs variants with Strand Bias (high SB value) ?

Acquisition shows Google's own Facebook rival isn't far off.
Google has stumped up for yet another social networking start-up, fuelling rumours that its own social network to compete with Facebook is just around the corner.
Following Zynga and Slide, Google has busted out its cheque book and paid around $70 million for Jambool. Jambool makes Social Gold, payment software which lets devs stick payment methods straight into games.
Related links:
- Google buys Metaweb and Freebase
- 10 ways Google is taking over the world
- Facebook used more than Google.com in the US
Essentially, Jambool is a rival to Facebook Credits, which offers a similar package. It appears that in buying Jambool, Google is looking to go head-on with Facebook in the social gaming space.
This is shaping up to be an almighty ding dong between the world's most popular social network and the mighty Google. How will it play out? And who will come out on top? Tell us what you think on Facebook and Twitter.

Representatives of the low-cost, regional and charter airline sectors are collectively pressing for a waiver on European passenger rights legislation in order to fend off a potential cash-flow crisis.
But the group which represents the largest mainline European carriers is resisting joining the call.
Members of the European Regions Airline Association, the European Low Fares Airline Association, and the International Air Carrier Association are seeking a "firm commitment" from the European Commission to provide support to carriers affected by the volcanic ash crisis.
A spokeswoman for the ERA says the three groups are looking for a waiver to European legislation which requires airlines to accommodate passengers in the event of flight cancellations.
She says the situation created by the Icelandic volcano has "gone beyond a joke", because the open-ended nature of the event has placed a burden of unlimited liability on the airlines. While the carrier groups are "happy to continue abiding by the law", she adds, their members are "running out of money".
Given that the closure of European airspace was a governmental decision, the groups argue, the governments "cannot ignore the massive economic consequences".
But the Association of European Airlines has opted against joining the other airline groups' call. A spokesman for the AEA says the association feels it is "not appropriate".
He says that the European Commission has arranged high-level consultations which are providing a mechanism for the airlines' issues to be "properly discussed". While the AEA is not against a possible waiver of the passenger rights rules, the spokesman says there are a number of options which could be considered.

The core strength of Adobe Photoshop is the way it enables you to improve the quality of your images, whether you're fixing a major problem or making a subtle adjustment. In this workshop Tim Grey explores a wide variety of techniques to help you get the best results when optimizing your images. He begins with basics like cropping, changing brightness and contrast, and correcting color balance, then moves on to more advanced adjustments like Shadows/Highlights, Curves, and dodging and burning. Then learn how to make targeted adjustments that affect only selected parts of the image and apply creative adjustments that don't so much fix a problem as add a unique touch. And best of all, Tim teaches all these techniques as part of an overall workflow designed to help you work quickly, efficiently, and nondestructively.
Generally speaking you might try to avoid a vignette effect in your image, for example, staying away from wide angle lenses that tend to have a little bit more light fall off out toward the edges of the frame. But sometimes you might actually want to add a vignette effect to an image. Let's take a look at one of the ways you can add a darkening of the edges to any photo in Photoshop. The lens correction filter provides a very easy way to add a vignette effect. Of course it can always be used to compensate for an existing vignette, but here we're going to add a darkening around the edge, just to help sort of frame up the image a little bit, to help keep your eye inside the image. Before I actually add that filter effect, I want to convert my background image layer to a smart object so that I can apply a flexible filter to the image. I'll go ahead and choose Filter, and then Convert For Smart Filters from the menu. I'll get an alert confirming that I want to convert this image to a Smart Object. I'll go ahead and click OK.
And now you can see that the background image layer has been converted, in this case, to a Smart Object. And that enables the use of Smart Filters. Among the many filters available, we can use the Lens Correction Filter. So from the Filter menu, I'll choose Lens Correction. That will bring up the Lens Correction dialog, which we can use to apply some automatic corrections to the image, in order to compensate for the behavior of lens for example. I'll go ahead and turn the geometric distortion option off. I basically don't want to apply any of the automatic adjustments in this particular case.
I'll go ahead and switch to the Custom tab, and that's where I'll find the vignette controls. I can drag the amount slider to the left to darken or to the right to lighten. In both case adjusting the outer edge of the photo. For this photo I want to darken up those edges just a little bit. I can also adjust the mid-point. If I drag to the left, then the vignette effect will go further toward the center of the photo. And if I drag to the right, that vignette will be constrained more to the outer edges of the image. I think I'll keep that vignette out toward the edges just a little bit, and maybe I'll darken it down a little bit more.
Once I'm happy with the result I can click the OK button, and that vignette effect has been applied to the photo. You can see that the edges are darkened a little bit. Of course I've applied the effect as a Smart filter, and that means I can go back and fine-tune the settings for that filter very, very easily. For starters I can preview what the image looked like before the smart filter was applied, simply by clicking to the left of the smart filter's layer mask. That will enable or disable the effect of the smart filters. If I decide I want to change the effect, I can simply double-click on the Lens Correction Smart Filter, that will bring up the Lens Correction dialog, and I can go back to my Custom tab.
And fine-tune the vignette effect, for example. We'll assume that I'm happy with this result, I'll go ahead and click OK. The other option that I have is to adjust the settings for the filter, for the blending for that filter. If I double-click the Adjustment button to the far right of lens correction, that will bring up my Blending Options dialog. And here I can, for example, reduce the opacity of the effect, so if I'm mostly happy with the result. But I think I just need to tone it down a little bit. Instead of going back to lens correction, I can simply reduce the strength of the final effect.
I'll reduce it just a little bit here, and then click OK. And then I'll preview the before and after, so I'll turn off my smart filters. Turn them back on, and that looks to be a good effect. I don't have too much darkening of the edges, that really stands out. But it does help to frame up the photo just a little bit better. So as you can see by using a smart filter to apply a lens correction adjustment, we can add a vignette affect with great flexibility, and it's very, very easy to do.

DuPont Honors Researchers with Highest Scientific Achievement
Lavoisier Medals Awarded For Replacement Technology for CFCs and Invention of Tough, Lightweight Polymers
DuPont today announced the recipients of the Lavoisier Medal for Technical Achievement, presented to DuPont scientists and engineers who have had a career of outstanding achievements in their chosen fields. The 2007 awardees are Charles Joseph Noelke, a DuPont Fellow based in Fayetteville, NC, and Edward J. Deyrup, a retired DuPont Fellow from Wilmington, DE.
Noelke led the team that developed HFC 134-A, a replacement to chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), a refrigerant recognized in the early 1970s to be accumulating in the atmosphere and potentially depleting the earth's ozone layer. Deyrup was recognized for his technical leadership in advancing Vamac® elastomers for seals and gaskets and for inventing DuPont™ Rynite® PET, a tough polymer used to replace metal with lighter weight, lower cost molded parts in automobiles, appliances and other consumer products.
"Our two honorees have contributed to a wide range of very important scientific and engineering processes that have changed people's lives around the world. Their accomplishments have provided more sustainable solutions to critical areas such as refrigeration, fuel efficiency and demanding electronic appliances," said DuPont Senior Vice President & Chief Science and Technology Officer Uma Chowdhry. "While the Lavoisier Medal honors their individual accomplishments, both Charlie and Ed are quick to recognize the dedication and contributions of the exceptional teams they were fortunate to lead."
Noelke is a chemical engineer at DuPont's Fayetteville, N.C., site. He has been leading efforts to develop environmentally smart alternative processes for making fluorochemicals and fluoropolymers. When CFCs for refrigeration were being phased out, Noelke led the team that was able to proceed from process computer modeling to commercialization of HFC-134a in less than three years. This pioneering work was a key part of the DuPont effort that was recognized with the prestigious National Medal of Technology in 2002 "for policy and technology leadership in the phaseout and replacement of chlorofluorocarbons."
"The contribution that Charlie has made to DuPont and to creating more sustainable solutions further demonstrates the importance and high honor of the prestigious Lavoisier Medal," Chowdhry said. "It is an honor all scientists at DuPont aspire to achieve."
Deyrup retired from DuPont in 2006 after 41 years with the company. He invented the crystallization system that forms the basis for Rynite® PET toughened polymers. As technology leader of the DuPont™ Vamac® ethylene acrylic elastomers business, he led teams from North America, Europe and Asia that expanded production and revitalized the offering with vastly improved products for customers. DuPont™ Vamac® is a tough, low-compression set rubber with excellent resistance to high temperatures, hot oil, fluids and weather.
"Through his work, Ed always sought to understand technology fundamentals to vastly improve products for customers," Chowdhry said.
The Lavoisier Medal is named in honor of Antoine Lavoisier, the father of modern chemistry, who mentored the founder of the company, E.I. du Pont, more than 200 years ago. Recipients were honored at the Science Excellence Ceremony yesterday at the DuPont Country Club here.
DuPont - one of the first companies to publicly establish environmental goals 18 years ago - has broadened its sustainability commitments beyond internal footprint reduction to include market-driven targets for both revenue and research and development investment. The goals are tied directly to business growth, specifically to the development of safer and environmentally improved new products for key global markets.
DuPont is a science-based products and services company. Founded in 1802, DuPont puts science to work by creating sustainable solutions essential to a better, safer, healthier life for people everywhere. Operating in more than 70 countries, DuPont offers a wide range of innovative products and services for markets including agriculture and food; building and construction; communications; and transportation.

Soulstice cast hits the right notes with Sondheim's 'Follies'
Just after intermission in the production of Stephen Sondheim's "Follies" now being staged by Soulstice Theatre, Heidi Schiller — oldest among the pre-World War II showgirls attending a one-time reunion — begins to warble an operetta-like tune from her heyday.
Playing the older Heidi, Amanda Hull sings that we must never look back. But of course Heidi looks, remembering the ravishing young performer she'd once been, when she could hit every note in songs like this one. Which the suddenly materialized younger Heidi (a lovely Julianne Frey) then easily does, singing of the bittersweet passage of time — something a young Heidi can't possibly feel as acutely as her older self does. »Read Full Article

"HTTP secure link" using OpenResty Nginx module
Whenever you generate a link on your website to let your visitor download some content, you run into the risk that people will start sharing that link with others. If you want to discourage that you can require the user to login before downloading. If this is not an option for you then you can generate links that are only valid for a few seconds. This is a feature that Nginx supports using the Nginx module HttpSecureLinkModule.
Standard HttpSecureLinkModule
You can specify a Unix timestamp on which the link should no longer be valid; you add this timestamp to the query string like this:
In this URL (that uses 'GET' parameters) the 'e' parameter is the expiry timestamp and the 's' parameter is the signature. This signature is calculated by taking a secret and appending the expiry timestamp to it and calculating a hash over that.
$signature = md5( $secret . $path . $expiry );
OpenResty Nginx modules
But what if you want to use a variant on that? For instance, if you want to restrict on certain networks or use a different hashing algorithm for the signature? My idea was to use the excellent building blocks from the set-misc-nginx-module that is made by Yichun Zhang (a.k.a. "agentzh"). This Nginx module is not included in Nginx by default, but is a part of the OpenResty Nginx distribution or as Yichun Zhang explaines:
By taking advantage of various well-designed Nginx modules, OpenResty effectively turns the nginx server into a powerful web app server. OpenResty is not an Nginx fork. It is just a software bundle. – openresty.org
We did 3 pull requests to the "set-misc-nginx-module" that allow for the needed functionality. You can compile this Nginx module into your Nginx by pointing the "–add-module" configure option to your checkout of this module. We have added the "set_encode_base64url", "set_decode_base64url", "set_expired" and "set_ip_matches" directives for building a custom secure link Nginx module.
Installation instructions
The configuration for the Nginx module would be like this:
# GET /?e=1893452400&n=MC4wLjAuMC8w&s=QVvNrcn-j4smvOFhuPTUU7EgoI8 # returns 403 when signature on the arguments is not correct OR # when expire time is passed or network does not match. # It is an alternative to the HttpSecureLinkModule in Nginx. # This example has expiry "2030-01-01" and network "0.0.0.0/0". location / { set_hmac_sha1 $signature 'secret-key' "e=$arg_e&n=$arg_n"; set_encode_base64url $signature; if ($signature != $arg_s) { return 403; } set_expired $expired $arg_e; if ($expired) { return 403; } set_decode_base64url $network $arg_n; set_ip_matches $ip_matches $network $remote_addr; if ($ip_matches = 0) { return 403; } root /var/www; }
Where the PHP code to generate the link would be:
<?php function base64url_encode($s) { return rtrim(strtr(base64_encode($s),"+/", "-_"),"="); } $secret = "secret-key"; $expiry = strtotime("2030-01-01 00:00:00"); $network = base64url_encode("0.0.0.0/0"); $query = "e=$expiry&n=$network"; $signature = base64url_encode(hash_hmac('sha1',$query,$secret,true)); $url = "http://localhost/?$query&s=$signature"; echo "$url\n";
Output would be:

Great post
This looks pretty similar to what I am trying to achieve
I m following this nginx secure link how to
But the owner doesn't provide a php script to make it working, beside his bash command..
I d need some help creating the right php script to produce the right hash to secure my videos, do you have any ideas?
I have been testing your code and it works great! Can't thank you enough!
Hope it s okay if I link you back on that forum to share your solution, might help many others..
Hi Campones, I have tried your solution but I can't make it work. Any help is appreciated. This is my confs:
location /on_play {
# set connection secure link
secure_link $arg_st,$arg_e;
secure_link_md5 mysecretkey$arg_app/$arg_name$arg_e;
# bad hash
if ($secure_link = "") {
return 501;
# link expired
if ($secure_link = "0") {
return 502;
return 200;
Hi Maurits, I have used the php suggested and the nginx conf suggested by the autor of rtmp (cited above) without changes but the link that have been generated doesn't play. The url of the link generator: http://serviprint.com.mx/test/secure1.php My nginx log:
18.104.22.168 [31/Dec/2014:04:40:20 -0500] PLAY "vod" "mp4:vid3.mp4″ "e=1420022327&st=LLsbajEG5UzBOWmSXvBWgA" – 502 292 "http://www.jwplayer.com/wizard/" "WIN 15,0,0,246″ (0s)
127.0.0.1 – – [31/Dec/2014:04:40:20 -0500] "POST /on_play HTTP/1.0″ 501 180 "-" "-" "-"
Thanks a lot!
I have no knowledge about php but I'm wondering the reason it's not working is because the default nginx conf doesn't have anything about the expiry instruction that it's included in the php link generator.
location /on_play {
secure_link $arg_st,$arg_e;
secure_link_md5 mysecretkey$arg_app/$arg_name$arg_e;
Hi Maurits, thanks for your help. I have founded another website with some code and I've had better luck, but I could only make it work for http, not for rtmp. The code looks very similar to what you have provided. It could be great it you could give us some help to make it work for RTMP.
Here is the Nginx conf and the php code: http://pastebin.com/678mj3TL
Thanks in advance.

Norfolk Sertoma Supports:
"When I explain that I have a problem, most people will say, 'I am sorry to hear about that,' or will tell me a story about someone they know with a similar situation. A Sertoman will say, 'How can I help?'"
Since 1950, the Sertoma Club of Norfolk has strived to be a valuable member of the Hampton Roads community.
We are a dedicated group of professionals with a common goal of helping people through local charities and organizations, with a focus on the areas of speech and the hearing impaired. Over the years we have raised more than $1,100,000 for those causes. The Sertoma Club of Norfolk is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and all donations are tax deductible.
Sertoma International is a civic organization with 20,000-plus members in nearly 700 clubs across Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico and the United States. Every year, Sertoma clubs raise more than $20 million for community needs. Through these projects, as well as scholarships and grants, Sertoma clubs return those funds to their respective communities – and they have lots of fun doing it!

now considering that
you have TWO 8800GTX
just estimating, 480GTX uses about about 60ishW less on idle, and about 218ishW less on load then your 8800gtx SLI.
both reviews are from the same site.
funny how you complain about power consumption, when your current cards draw much more power, and run hotter
cough***your current ones run hotter***cough
I had an 8800 GTX, and I absolutely loved it!
The 8800 GTX was a phenomenal product. It produced jaw dropping numbers and had an incredible feature set. Yes, for the time, it used a lot of juice and produced heat. Nvidia has always been known to push the envelope, and unfortunately, high heat and power usage is usually a product of such aspirations. You forget, though, that the 8800 GTX did NOT have a monolithic cooler on it and its fan was also nearly inaudible at full speed. The 8800 GTX did run hot, but it could afford to. The 480 GTX unfortunately runs hot and has an incredible cooling solution already on it leaving virtually no room to put a better solution on it other than WC.
I mean, are we seriously going to compare the 8800 GTX to the GTX 480? Nvidia had their ducks in a line for the 8xxx series. No one on here is going to say that the 8800 GTX wasn't an incredible piece of engineering (bar the fact that nearly all of them died in the first several years on market) However, things have changed dramatically since then. ATI now has a card in the form of the HD 5870 that is virtually twice as powerful, uses roughly the same amount of power, and gives off less heat. Nvidia, on the other hand, has a card that's also roughly twice as powerful, but it gives off an extreme amount of heat and uses a ton of power. What's wrong with this picture?
The 8800 GTX beat the 2900 XT. We all know that. During this generation, it's far closer. This GTX 490 could be a step in the right direction, or it could be a total failure. We'll have to wait and see.... and dear god I hope nvidia corrects the power/heat issues with their next gen of Fermi architecture.

Monday 25 July, 2011:
With Parliament in recess, the Government releases its new proposals. Initially, they raise few ripples, meriting just one passing mention in the construction and property section of a national newspaper the following day. However, conservation and environmental campaign groups quickly begin to react, most notably the National Trust. The Campaign to Protect Rural England also acts, mobilising its followers through Twitter, a pattern which develops.
draft national planning policy statement just out places countryside under threat [CPRE Twitter feed, July 25]
Experts note England's planning guidance has been reduced from over 1,000 pages of regulation to just 52. One developer, interviewed by the BBC News at Ten, is described as "eyeing up the unspoilt Midlands waterway that he plans to turn into a marina like a fox outside a chicken coop". Dame Fiona Reynolds, director general of the National Trust, says:
This finally sounds the death knell to the principle established in the 1940s that the planning system should be used to protect what is most special in the landscape.
Kent is likely to see many planning battles (TROIKA)
Wednesday 27 July:
Within two days of the proposals coming to light, The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, Friends of the Earth, The British Wildlife Trusts and the Campaign to Protect Rural England have all joined the National Trust to oppose the changes. The membership of those organisations alone numbers around 5 million. Peter Hetherington, in The Guardian, writes:
Get Britain Building? Absolutely. But let's proceed by producing well-planned, well-connected new settlements, rather than repeating the mistakes of the past with identical new estates plonked miles from anywhere. Time is not on our side.
The RSPB fears encroachment on bird habitats (ALAMY)
Sunday 7 August:
Ministers, unnerved by the coordination of the campaigners against the plans, mount an unprecedented attack on the conservationist charities leading the way, as reported by The Sunday Telegraph. Bob Neill, the Local Government Minister, says:
This is a carefully choreographed smear campaign by Left-wingers based within the national headquarters of pressure groups. This is more about a small number of interest groups trying to justify their own existence, going out of their way by picking a fight with Government.
The National Trust is petitioning its 3.8m members
Tuesday 23 August
Greg Clark, the Planning Minister, stokes the row in interviews with the Financial Times and on Radio 4, says people who try to "preserve in aspic" their towns and villages are guilty of "nihilistic selfishness" because their objections block the new homes for young people which are badly needed. He also dismisses the National Trust as a "not serious" organisation and accuses them of trying to misleading the public by using photographs of Los Angeles' urban sprawl to back their arguments. Mr Clark says:
It is one of the great social injustices that we are failing to provide enough housing, particularly at an affordable level of rent.
Urban sprawl in Los Angeles (ALAMY)
Sunday 28 August:
The UK's leading house builders have enough land to build 617,724 homes, reports The Sunday Telegraph's Richard Gray. A spokesman for the Home Builders Federation says:
Builders need a supply of land to keep their businesses running – the alternative being to shrink their business.
Monday 29 August:
The Campaign for Better Transport claims drivers are facing the threat of more motorway gridlock because of the proposed changes. They say the plans will prioritise business parks near motorway junctions rather than in town centres which could lead to an increase in the number of traffic jams. The organisation estimates that each development would generate an extra 8,000 car journeys a day. Stephen Joseph, chief executive of The Campaign for Better Transport, says:
Far from helping economic growth, our research shows that the draft planning framework could actually end up damaging the economy.
The plans will increase congestion, the CBT says (ALAMY)
Tuesday 30 August
Planners are told to start approving developments on the basis of the controversial new planning guidelines, despite ministers offering to reword the legislation before it comes into force. This does not become public knowledge until The Telegraph's story of September 7. Official inspectors, who have the power to approve local developments, get the fresh guidance by the Planning Inspectorate which tells them to start abiding by the new draft planning framework, which campaigners fear could lead to unchecked development in rural areas, because it represents the Government's "direction of travel". Nick Walker, a reader of The Telegraph from Whalley, Lancashire, writes to highlight the example of his village, in the rural Ribble Valley, which is "under attack from developers who want to build some 1,000 houses around the village, all on greenfield sites":
The Localism Bill has been exposed as a sham which encourages "local" decisions on planning only if they are decisions in favour of more development. The Ribble Valley is a safe Tory seat, but I would remind Mr Clark that the valley has punished previous Tory administrations by voting its MP out.
The Government insists the Green Belt will be protected
Wednesday 31 August:
Vince Cable, the Business Secretary, describes campaigners against the proposals as "semi-hysterical" in an interview with the Times. Dr Cable says the changes are needed to create new homes, in particular social housing, in which there is a "chronic, chronic shortage". Alice Thomson, the commentator, writing in The Times, says planning is the "most volatile" issue affecting the rural population. She writes that the Government "may have a few wealthy landowners, planning lawyers and property developers on its side, but it has managed to unite a formidable group against its plans... Greg Clark, the Planning Minister, doesn't appear to care. In fact, he almost seems to relish the fight." Dr Cable, describing opponents of the new guidelines, says they are:
The Green Belt has been protected since the '50s (ALAMY)
Thursday 1 September:
With the sides of the debate entrenched and increasingly hostile, The Daily Telegraph launches its campaign to stop ministers pushing the proposals through after 23 former presidents of the Royal Town Planning Institute write to the newspaper to call for a calm discussion of the plans and for them not to be introduced with undue "haste".
The lead story reports that ministers have been accused of trying to rush through the biggest planning reforms since the Second World War. The newspaper's leader column writes: "The Business Secretary is about to discover that there are a great many semihysterics in this country."
Greg Clark, the planning minister, engages in bruising debate on BBC's Newsnight with National Trust chairman, Sir Simon Jenkins, as the argument moves solidly into the mainstream. Martin Willey (and others), former President of the Royal Town Planning Institute:
The unintended consequences of this haste are greater confusion, uncertainty for the development industry and anxiety for communities.

This photo of a model that's on display in at Two Trees headquarters just landed in our inbox about half an hour ago. The Dock Street project that the developer is trying to sell to the public is tucked behind a huge "Brooklyn" sign that's been plunked on the roof of the Empire Stores building. But most eye-popping is the model of Brooklyn Bridge Park's own marina. First we've heard of such a thing. Fantasy or reality?

A marina here would be a shame.
what happens to j condo? are the views towards the bridge completely obstructed?
I think even two trees says fantasy. Why take out beach and park (already done) that 1000s enjoy and replace with a marina that would be great … for a couple dozen people.
Add a couple of seafood restaurants and I am in "Brooklyn's City Island". To appeal to the low income residents, they should add a couple of large cafeteria type restaurants serving $10 shrimp boxes, at the end of the park of course.
Dreadful. Sink the marina!
note also "Jane's carousel" near the BB anchorage.
Seeing this makes me ask, why such uproar over this building and its proximity to the Brooklyn Bridge?
Is the furor mostly rich NUMBY's losing their view? It doesn't seem to be 1) that close to the stone support portion of the bridge or 2) that out of context with that other building heights.
Explanation please.
Guessing that 12:12pm's "NUMBY" =
Not Under My Bridge, Yo!
Don't worry, the marina is NOT happening. My guess is the planning team is just using it as a placeholder. They'll never find a concessionaire willing to run a marina there — it's too small to make a profit, and the currents in the East River are too fickle to make this an appealing location for serious yachties.
poster 12:12, for a person to view the site as laid out in that model-they would have to be in a HELICOPTER.
No, it does not look offensive from 1500 feet in the air.
If Wallentas wants to do it, it will get done. The projects that never seem to get anywhere are the ones involving State agencies or the Port Authority.
Wallentas does not own the Empire Stores (yet) but when he gets them, he will rehab them and put the big sign on top, which I really like.
The Empire Stores originally sat right next to the water so the marina would recreate that original relationship. That would be something that the landmarks commission would probably like.
The proposed building is perfectly alright, verging on the ho-hum. Yassky, that arbiter of good taste and ethics, has come out agaisnt it. But given his lack of popularity, that is a plus. Ditto for the BHA -does anyone actually like or listen to the BHA?
Wallentas is in the driver's seat as he has for the last twenty years in this once forgotten corner.
i think a marina would be nice there. and no i'm not a broker, sailor, dumbo-dweller or rich person. there is a lot of park space there and i think a little marina with some sailboats would have a very nice feel.
the link posted by 2:00 does show marinas.
The Brooklyn sign is cool, but i'd prefer "Fugheddaboudit" in that same Dodger blue cursive…
it shows marinas, but not at that location.
I really like the Brooklyn sign. Genius. Instant landmark. It would need to be put up in the middle of the night without official approval. The public would then fall in love with it and the art and landmark types would have to grudgingly accept it. Like what happened with the bronze bull in lower Manhattan.
I am I the only one who can spot the obvious postings by 2 tree employees. Big phonies!
3:52–Yup. The ones that "like" the marina, you mean? I would suggest to anyone that legitimately likes the marina, to study this model closely and then go visit the existing park. Notice what they are targeting? The spot where the MOST people like to hang out in the park! The steps and the pebble beach where people like to sit and read, take in the skyline or watch the water. And destroy it for what? A few people's boats? Go sit by the boat basin in BPC and tell me that you would still replace the existing space with a giant reeking cement pool where rich people's boats sit in a slick of stagnant water and discarded poland spring bottles.
come on, people. must you always accuse someone who likes something you don't of being somehow connected to the developer? i said i thought a marina would be nice. so what? we have different opinions. it must make you feel better to think you have a ready explanation for everyone opinion that differs from yours.
I love and enjoy the little beach, BUT I would also love a marina. Would be great if the marina could be developed near the existing site, w/o sacrificing the beach.
There is a marina in the plans for the greater BBPark, assuming the construction ever gets going. But it's farther up, beneath the promenade. BBPark most certainly doesn't need two marinas. And considering that the stretch between the bridges with the skyline in the background is the most dramatically picturesque, I would hope they wouldn't block access here. This is the stretch that most tourists will visit. Marina good. Here bad. IMO.
there is not, will not be and are no plans to build a marina. Save your concerns for actual terrible development ideas like "dock Street" The model in the photograph is 10 years old. There are plans for a marina further south as part of the Brooklyn Bridge Park development. I repeat: There is no real discussion or efforts underway to build a marina there.
There is no real plan for a marina in the Brooklyn Bridge Park further south.
The models show a marina, but it is contingent on whether a private operator wants to build and run it. so there is no marina. If Wallentas wants to build a marina, I think it would be closer to Fulton Ferry than the no-man's land under the Promenade. It comes down to who has the money to actually build it. Uhh, that would be Wallentas. Marinas are a great place to hang out to check out boats. you don't have to have a boat to enjoy it. I like the marina at world financial center and i do not belong to the yachting class.
I think in years to come Fulton Ferry- Empire Stores park will get better and better. Who knows about the Furman Street park? It may not happen in our lifetime.
It's called Empire Stores or Empire State Park. Welcome to the Neighborhood. How are things in J condo?
I love this park. My husband and I walk through it nearly every day. Just yesterday we sat along the waterfront watching the ferries go by in the rain and we were saying what a paradise it is. We saw a little boy off by himself throwing stones into the water. I really do hope that it will never be turned into a marina, especially a high end one. This park, and the small stretch of accessible shoreline should be kept open for everyone.
It's tough to read 'anon's comments that she doesn't live in the neighborhood, but thinks the marnia would have 'a nice feel'. It really made my blood boil. So many DUMBO residents are so emotionally invested in this small neighborhood, we know we are lucky to live here and we desperately want to protect the things that make it so special.
