33 year old man | Grand Haven, MI, USA | Seeking women 21-33 within 25 miles of Holland, MI
I recently moved from the other side of the...
I recently moved from the other side of the state because of a job transfer and just bought a house in Grand Haven. I'm an easy going guy always up for a good time. I love being outdoors and am always willing to try anything new and exciting. I have a passion for racing motorcycles and love spending time at the racetrack. I race with an organization called WERA and get to travel to different racetracks racing in the summer. I don't really know anyone in West Michigan so I'm hoping this whole online dating thing will help me meet some new people. During the week I work in finance and on the weekends you'll find me looking for something to do that puts a smile on my face! I'm totally a free spirit and literally can have fun doing just about anything. But at the same time I know how to work hard and accomplish my goals. I'm always on the move and not really good at sitting still. So you've got to be able to keep up and have fun doing it! So that's pretty much me in a nutshell. I'm just looking for a really cool girl that I genuinely like spending time with. If you are fun, spontaneous, love to laugh, and don't take life too seriously I'd love to get to know you. If you want to know more just ask!

The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.
California Assembly Speaker John A. Pérez condemns sexual conversion therapy.
Both houses of the California Legislature have approved a bill that bans reparative therapy for persons under the age of 18. The measure now awaits a decision by Governor Jerry Brown to either sign it into law or to veto it. Although the bill may help prevent the abuse of young people, it has been so stripped down from its original version that it is difficult to be enthusiastic about its passage.
In its original version, which I discussed here, the bill, introduced by Senator Ted Lieu, would have banned California licensed mental health professionals from engaging in sexual orientation change efforts of any kind for a minor patient, regardless of a parent's willingness or desire to authorize participation in such programs, and would have required that adults seeking conversion therapy be warned of its unlikelihood of success and its potential harms.
In addition, the original version would have imposed fines of $5,000 or "actual damages, or statutory damages" if the client later determined that he or she had been harmed by the therapy or if the therapist had violated the ban.
However, the bill that has actually been passed is what Jim Burroway of Box Turtle Bulletin has dubbed the "stripped-down" or "scaled-back" version. It maintains the ban on reparative therapy for minors, but does not require a consent form for adults. In lieu of fines or damages, it merely exposes licensed therapists to "discipline by the licensing entity for that mental health provider."
Moreover, the bill covers only state-licensed therapists, not clergy, "ex-gay groups," or self-anointed counselors or "life coaches."
The bill is now toothless, but it may have significant symbolic value for signaling the state's disapproval of reparative therapy, which has been determined by psychological associations to be dangerous. In addition, since anti-gay groups, ex-gay groups, and the Roman Catholic hierarchy, among others, all vigorously oppose the bill, one cannot help but hope that the Governor signs it into law.
The reparative therapy movement is rooted in the work of 1960s psychologists such as Irving Bieber and Charles Socarides, who claimed that homosexuality was both pathological and susceptible to change. When their position was repudiated by the 1973 decision of the American Psychiatric Association to remove homosexuality from the category of "illness," they launched a counter-offensive against the views of the psychological and psychiatric establishment.
In 1992, the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) was established. Led by Joseph Nicolosi and Charles Socarides, and funded largely by right-wing religious and political organizations, NARTH is self-described as "a non-profit, educational organization dedicated to affirming a complementary, male-female model of gender and sexuality." It essentially espouses the view of homosexuality that was dominant in the 1950s and 1960s: that a homosexual "preference" results from a developmental problem, especially a child's failure to identify properly with adult figures of the same gender.
Sexual orientation change efforts pose serious health risks, including depression, shame, decreased self-esteem, social withdrawal, substance abuse, self-harm, and suicide. For minors, who are often subjected to these practices at the insistence of misled parents who either do not know or do not believe that the practice is harmful, the risks of long-term mental and physical health consequences are particularly severe.
The American Psychiatric Association has characterized reparative therapy as dangerously misguided, issuing a statement saying that "the potential risks of 'reparative therapy' are great, including depression, anxiety and self-destructive behavior, since the therapist's alignment with societal prejudices against homosexuality may reinforce self-hatred already experienced by the patient."
When the bill banning reparative therapy for minors was debated in the Assembly, the openly gay Speaker of the Assembly John Pérez described sexual conversion therapy as "an abusive practice."
Speaker Pérez may be heard in the video below.

Carlisle United defender Bugno's contract cancelled
Last updated at 09:38, Thursday, 31 January 2013
Italian defender Alessio Bugno's unhappy stay with Carlisle United is officially over after the Blues cancelled his contract.
The left-back has now cut his ties with Carlisle, having been looking for a club in his homeland for several weeks.
Bugno is not understood to have yet found a new club but is now free to move on after this morning's decision.
The 22-year-old returned to Italy in early December after the club said he had struggled to settle after his summer move.
Bugno started the season in the United side after impressing manager Greg Abbott in several trial appearances.
But he quickly lost his place to Chris Chantler, and left after making just four appearances for Abbott's side.
United managing director John Nixon said: "We have reached a mutual agreement and Alessio has subsequently had his contract with us cancelled.
"As far as we understand things he is still having trials, but we needed him to make a decision before the transfer window closed [at 11pm today].
"He hasn't settled over here so the best thing for all concerned was to allow him to leave and try to secure himself a deal over in Italy."

In the U.S. the parts can be fitted to either the GS 350 or GS 450h models, enhancing the cars not only visually but in terms of performance as well. The list of parts includes a new bodykit consisting of a front lip spoiler, sporty side sills, a trunk spoiler, and a rear diffuser. TRD accessories for the 2013 Lexus GS range
There's also a custom muffler with a quad-tip design, and if that's not enough TRD also offers a set of 19-inch forged aluminum wheels and a complete suspension site.
Unfortunately, just like with the IS F TRD upgrades, pricing for the new GS pieces from TRD ranges from "steep" to "absurd." The wheels alone, for example, will set you back around $6,500 for the set.
Note, Lexus also offers its own upgrades for the GS in the form of the F Sport range, which you can read about by clicking here.
Thanks E for sending in the tip!

News & Analysis
Once again the venerable AMA HOD (House of Delegates) convened in mid-June in Chicago for its Annual Meeting. Medical societies from every state and territory were represented, as was nearly every conceivable medical specialty. There were also medical students, residents and fellows, and young and old physicians. Emergency physicians were well represented by ACEP's 4 delegates, 4 alternate delegates and by AAEM's representative. There are also some 60 additional emergency physicians and Medical Students involved in the Emergency Medicine Section Council who also represent other entities in the AMA, such as state societies, residents and fellows, young physicians, and organized medical staffs.Once again there were a potpourri of resolutions to be considered, some of them noteworthy and broadly applicable but many of them narrowly focused on pet causes. The hottest topics dealt with healthcare reform and the proposed "public option" insurance plan, tort reform, and various CMS funding issues.

Pitchfork Music Festival 2013
by Dan Weiss | July 19, 2013
Whatever you think of the authoritative Pitchfork site itself, its festival has undeniably become one of the best, most affordable and, recently, most diverse summer music events in America, as evinced by the stylistic and commercial breadth of this year's headliners: Bjork, Belle and Sebastian and R. Kelly. Odd Future's metal division Trash Talk, a rare appearance from nu-Italo-disco Glass Candy and the iconoclastic M.I.A. all share the same stage, alongside The Breeders, who will be performing all of Last Splash for its 20th anniversary. Members of 2013's freshman class such as Foxygen and Autre Ne Veut compete for space with winning rap veterans El-P and Killer Mike. Over three days, it's hard to imagine you won't be turned on by something, especially when the choices range from Lil B's bizarro cult of personality to Solange's throwback disco to the hammering lunacy of Metz and Swans.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) with a Strategy
The vast majority of Internet users find everything they're looking for on the Web by using search engines. That includes your website.
With effective SEO, your website content can be found in online search results at the moment potential clients need your services. Ranking well for relevant searches gives your practice greater authority and encourages potential clients to learn more about your work.
SEO by Firm Media focuses on the objectives your practice wants to achieve rather than arbitrary rankings or high-risk tactics that can penalize your business. We:
- Create keyword strategies that can be targeted to your industry and location.
- Conduct competitive analysis to identify tactics that can give your practice an edge.
- Pursue both on-site strategies, such as content creation, and off-site SEO strategies, like inbound link development.
Our process provides long-term value to your practice. We use industry-leading tools for site monitoring and rank tracking. This helps us tailor your strategy so that it becomes more and more relevant to your audience. As a client, you'll track the results of our work through quarterly reports, and you'll meet regularly with our team to discuss achievements and opportunities.

As large investment banks begin reporting yet another quarter of lacklustre earnings, leading them into their sixth year of failing to earn the cost of their equity capital, it is time to recognise that the industry is in severe distress and contributing much less than it should be to economic recovery.

There are many good things we can do with our lives, some of which will give us a sense of meaning and usefulness.

We aren't going to discover what we were made to do until we get our lives in line with the One who made us.

Nobody likes being confined to a hospital bed. Children especially can feel lonely, bored or scared in these situations. Hours feel like days, and they may not be able to fully understand or describe why they are there.
Child life specialists have long understood that tapping into playtime can bring up information about a child's social and emotional needs that might not be revealed in more structured clinical assessments. But what if you cannot physically be in the room?
Deirdre Logan, PhD, Director of Psychology Services in Pain Medicine, and Peter Weinstock, MD, PhD, Director of the Boston Children's Simulator Program (SIMPeds), may have found the answer. Along with a dedicated, multidisciplinary research team from Boston Children's, MIT's Media Lab, and Northeastern University, they have designed a robotic teddy bear that may be able to supplement care team interactions on inpatient units.

I can't tell you how many times I've had to go through that process (documented in the Help area) to restore my product folder content. The database seems to be so easily screwed up.
Sometimes my macbook pro will go to sleep, and won't wake up. I'll have to power it off. If DAZ is up when that happens, occasionally, it comes back with all the content gone from the product and category areas. I've worked so hard to organize Poser & DAZ content into those categories.
I've made backup copies of the DAZ folder where the content management databases are, but now I find I can't get a recovery even with that. I'm going to have to uninstall and re-install DAZ and the DIM program again.
Anyone else getting content grief?

Overfishing in the oceans is a classic example of the "tragedy of the commons"-- overexploitation of an unowned resource. Fishing in U.S. waters is no longer a commons free of fishing restrictions, yet many fisheries still suffer from the tragedy of the commons.

Francis Egerton, 8th Earl of Bridgewater
Francis Henry Egerton, 8th Earl of Bridgewater FRS (11 November 1756 – 11 February 1829), known as Francis Egerton until 1823, was a noted British eccentric, and supporter of natural theology.
Early life[edit]
He was a son of John Egerton, Bishop of Durham and Anne Sophia Grey. His maternal grandparents were Henry Grey, 1st Duke of Kent and his second wife Sophia Bentinck. Sophia was a daughter of William Bentinck, 1st Earl of Portland and Anne Villiers. Anne was a daughter of Sir Edward Villiers and his first wife Frances Howard. She was also a sister of Edward Villiers, 1st Earl of Jersey.
Egerton was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, and became fellow of All Souls in 1780, and Fellow of the Royal Society in 1781. He inherited his title and a large fortune in 1823 from his brother, the 7th Earl.
Egerton was known for giving dinner parties for dogs, where the dogs were dressed in the finest fashions of the day, down to fancy miniature shoes. Each day Egerton wore a new pair of shoes and he arranged the worn shoes into rows, so that he could measure the passing time. An animal lover, Egerton kept partridges and pigeons with clipped wings in his garden, allowing him to shoot them despite failing eyesight[clarification needed]. Egerton never married, and upon his death, his title became extinct. He was buried at Little Gaddesden, Hertfordshire.
In 1812 he wrote "Description du Plan Incliné Souterrain" about the underground canals of the Worsley Navigable Levels, coal mines in Worsley, Greater Manchester, part of the Bridgewater estate.[1][2]
He bequeathed to the British Museum the valuable Egerton Manuscripts, consisting of 67 manuscripts dealing with the literature of France and Italy, and £12,000 to establish the Egerton Fund from which the Museum could purchase additional manuscripts. More than 3800 manuscripts have been purchased using the Egerton fund. He also left £8000 at the disposal of the president of the Royal Society, to be paid to the author or authors who might be selected to write and publish 1000 copies of a treatise "On the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God, as manifested in the Creation". Mr Davies Gilbert, who then filled the office, selected eight persons, each to undertake a branch of this subject, and each to receive £1000 as his reward, together with any benefit that might accrue from the sale of his work, according to the will of the testator.
These Bridgewater treatises first appeared during the years 1833 to 1840, and afterwards in Bohn's Scientific Library.

Hyper-V Program Manager
There have been a couple of minor changes to the New Virtual Machine Wizard in Virtual PC 2007 to help address usability issues that have been identified. The first change is to the operating system configuration page. I have never liked this page myself, as you select an operating system and have Virtual PC perform a number of unknown actions as a result. With Virtual PC 2007 you are now informed of what the result of your operating system selection will be:
One other minor change is that you can specify a custom virtual hard disk size if you choose to create a new virtual hard disk as part of the New Virtual Machine Wizard.
Would it be possible to create different types of disk from the Virtual Machine Wizard? It would be nice to create e.g a differencing disk, without having to run the disk wizard first.
Yesterday, i downloaded and installed Virtual PC 2007. My VPC settings shows the network card. I would like to know how can I share internet on my Host (WinXP) to one of the Guest on VPC?
I donwloaded and installed VPC2K7 too, but I installed on VISTA (final). I can use internet access using NAT in WinXP Pro guest. But it didn't works in Win2003 Ent R2. Anyone had same or similar issue?

Breaking news:
American Airlines, which earlier this week succumbed to high fuel prices and a dodgy economy and filed for Chapter 11 – to protect itself from creditors and pave the way for a slashing of wages, benefits and headcount – is joining with fellow-bankrupt and oneworld alliance partner Japan Air Lines to sponsor the 11 December Honolulu Marathon.
As American puts it:
"American's sponsorship of the Honolulu Marathon means that its partnership with JAL now extends beyond the terminal and through the streets of Honolulu to reach the sandy shores and warm surf of Waikiki."
American's and JAL's corporate generosity extends beyond the race, too. The evening before, their "Sunset on the Beach" spectacular will transform Waikiki Kuhio "into a stage for some of the best entertainment and food available on the island".
American employees worried about their jobs or salaries might want to do some quick training and run the race. First prize is $40,0000, with an extra $15,000 for breaking the race record, of 2hr 11min 12sec for men and 2hr 27min 19sec for women.

Originally written on The Majors Detroit | Last updated 11/26/12
For the first time in 12 inter-conference meetings the Pistons defeated a Western Conference opponent and also won for the first time this season when allowing more than 90 points defeating the Portland Trail Blazers 108-101 Monday night from The Palace. Brandon Knight led the way for Detroit with 26 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists outplaying Damian Lillard who had 12 points, 7 assists and 3 rebounds on the night. Each of Detroit's starting five scored in double figures including Greg Monroe and Kyle Singler who each had a double-double in the game. Monroe finished the night with 20 points and 10 rebounds while Singler, who's looked very good in his first season with the team, scored 16 points and 10 rebounds. Charlie Villanueva and Rodney Stuckey also had productive nights off the bench scoring 1o and 11 points respectively. Detroit has now won their past three home games and are 4-3 in their last 7 games after starting the season with 8 straight losses. h/t: Associated Press, Det...

"Active learning and cooperative learning: understanding the difference and using both styles effectively"
Keyser, Marcia W.
MetadataShow full item record
Subjectactive learning; cooperative learning; library instruction; information literacy; teaching method; Drake University.Cowles Library
Active learning is any teaching method that gets students actively involved; cooperative learning is one variety of active learning which structures students into groups with defined roles for each student and a task for the group to accomplish. Lecture-based library instruction is often unsuccessful for many reasons, including poor student attention, simplified examples, and too much material presented at one time. Active and/or cooperative teaching techniques involve the students in the class and increase retention of information following the class period. Active learning techniques are easier to apply and take less class time, while cooperative learning techniques require more advance planning and may take an entire class period. Choosing a teaching technique must be done carefully, with an understanding of the goals of the class session. Several possible goals are detailed, along with suggested techniques for meeting each one.

"We will resort to the United Nations. We will ask the U.N. Security Council to discuss this and take the needed measures," he said.
Over Israel's objections, the Palestinians last September won upgraded observer status at the United Nations. Since then, they have repeatedly threatened to use their upgraded status to seek admission to additional U.N. bodies, such as the International Criminal Court, and push for international legal action against Israel.
Kerry is scheduled to arrive early next week in hopes of finding a formula to relaunch the first substantive peace talks since late 2008. The U.S. has repeatedly criticized both Israeli settlement activity as well as Palestinian threats to pursue international legal action against Israel as being unhelpful.
Jewish settlers began building outposts in the 1990s to sidestep an Israeli commitment to stop building new settlements. Today there are dozens of unauthorized outposts, in addition to about 120 full-fledged settlements across the West Bank.
Critics say the government has been quietly complicit in building the outposts, linking many of them to the Israeli electric grid and building roads for them.
A decade ago, Israel pledged to take down about two dozen unauthorized outposts, but it has done little to carry out its promise.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. won't "accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlement activity."
"Continued settlement activity is counterproductive to the cause of peace," she told reporters. "An independent Palestine must be viable, with real borders that have to be drawn."
Psaki said it was important that both sides now take action to build trust and confidence.
"This is difficult," Psaki said. "And we're not underestimating that, the challenge of moving this path forward, but we've seen from both sides an openness to continuing the discussion."

CrossRoads Steakhouse is beefing up its focus on steak.
The Rees Avenue restaurant, located at Veterans Memorial Golf Course, introduced more steak choices, as well as sandwiches and salads that feature beef, said owner Kim Kelly-Frank in an announcement.
Even better news for meat-lovers: The entire menu will be available all day. Order dinner at 11 a.m., if you like, Kelly-Frank said.
CrossRoads will also offer a fresh seafood and pasta special each week. Fish & chips and the restaurant's in-house beer-battered prawns remain available daily.
Kelly-Frank said a number of other changes and additions have been made to the menu, including a new "soup, salad or baked potato combo." She said the kitchen staff is working on apple, peach and other fruit crisps for dessert. The revamped kids menu comes with a new concept. As part of the CrossRoads Kids Club, children younger than 10 can win "Worms in Dirt" dessert by coloring their menus and returning them on their sixth visit for a meal. For more details on the changes call 522-1200.

An Oregon family known for apples is building grape expectations.
Watermill Winery, the Milton-Freewater operation owned by the Brown family, was named Oregon Winery to Watch last month by Wine Press Northwest.
Writers Eric Degerman and Andy Perdue said while members of the family "operate a top-flight cidery and the largest apple-packing house in Oregon, their 5-year-old winery has fast become world-class."
Some of the critical acclaim over the last year led to the magazine's designation.
Two of Watermill's wines received Platinum awards in Wine Press Northwest's 2009 Platinum Competition. Earlier this year, Watermill's 2008 Late Harvest Gewurztraminer was the only Northwest wine to win a sweepstakes award when it captured the Dessert Sweepstakes at the 2010 San Francisco Chronicle -- the world's largest competition of American wines. The magazine lists a number of other accomplishments.
Watermill Winery, 235 E. Broadway, is led by winemaker Andrew Brown, Nancy Kezele, assistant manager and owner, and Leonard Brown, viticulturist and owner of the winery.
Will a restaurant inspired by the flavors of the Far East be headed to Southeastern Washington?
According to an article in Northwest Asian Weekly last week, Panda Express may have its sights set on Walla Walla.
The company -- a privately held venture owned by two first-generation Chinese-Americans -- "hopes to expand its presence in Washington state, a place well known for its large Asian population and Chinese food scene," read the article by Sarah Yee and Stacy Nguyen.
Forty-five Panda Express locations operate across Washington. According to the article, the company wants to expand to 100 and is scouting for locations in Seattle, the Tri-Cities, Bellevue, Issaquah, Yakima, Walla Walla and Spokane.
Andrew Cherng, who was born in Jiangsu, China, opened Panda Inn in Pasadena, in 1973 with his father, master chef Ming-Tsai Cherng. The restaurant was one of the first to introduce Mandarin and Szechuan cuisine to Southern California, the article said.

Brad Stevens and his national darlings at Butler will need to run the table and win four consecutive games in seven days to get back to the Big Dance.
The Bulldogs have made two straight improbable appearances in the national title game, but now the odds are stacked against them as Stevens & Co., which has lost Gordon Hayward, Matt Howard and Shelvin Mack over the past two years, earned the No. 5 seed in this year's league tourney.
Valparaiso and first-year head coach Bryce Drew earned the top spot by virtue of going 14-4 in league play this season. The Crusaders, led by Player of the Year candidate Ryan Broekhoff, will host the second round and semifinals on March 2-3 and would also host the championship game -- if it gets that far.
But there are several teams that could make a run at Valpo. Cleveland State was in control of the league at one point before stumbling late in the season, but Gary Waters' team still earned the double-bye. Detroit has Ray "Little Ray" McCallum and tied with a Milwaukee team that comes in on a four-game winning streak for third place.
Then you've got Butler - which doesn't have a star this year or enough offense, but you can't ever count out a Stevens-coached team. Not after what he's done the past two years.
Title game: Tuesday, March 6 on ESPN (9 p.m. ET)

WEBSITES OF THE DAY - Christmas special
Here are a few suggestions for once you've got rid of granny, picked up all the wrapping paper and finally eaten that last wretched mince pie.
The traditional Christmas: good times spent with nearest and dearest, fine food and perhaps a little too much to drink, crap telly, indigestion and a shed load of gift-wrapped stuff you didn't want.
The enterprising among you might be interested to hear that there are loads of sites that you can use to get rid of unwanted gifts this year. There is always eBay, but why not explore your options, just a few of which are listed here.
Swapshop.co.uk is probably our favourite. A trading site that makes it easy, as you don't need to wait for a swap – every item you send in earns points – use the points to pay for the stuff you want. There are no listing fees and the postage charges are reasonable. You can even buy points if there's something you see that you fancy.

Ninety-nine years after the Technion decided that classes would be taught in Hebrew rather than German, the heated debate that racked the Israel Institute of Technology has returned to Israeli academia. This time, though, the fight pits Hebrew against English.

A "fertile" isotope is defined as a long-lived isotope from which, as a result of a (n,) reaction, we obtain a fissile isotope of a different element. It was found that most of the fertile isotopes have a 2Z - N = 38 value and that these isotopes are the most stable isotopes in their corresponding elements. It was also found that the largest number of "stable" nuclei have a 2Z - N = 38 "magic" value.

Not entirely true.
The NVIDIA driver definitely makes it difficult, but it can be done.
At least I have achieved it with a VGA and a TV-OUT connection on the same card.
I have a Geforce 6200 card (VGA,DVI,TV-OUT), in an Athlon 2700+ (32bit). I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with the latest updates.
The trick it seems is to start both X servers as close in time as possible to one another.
From reading other posts, and from observing the behaviour myself, what seems to be happening when the NVIDIA driver loads up, is that it tries to grab all the video outputs for the current X server. Therefore the last X server that you run will grab all the video outputs regardless of whether or not it intends to use them.
If you start both X servers at the same time (or as close as possible), they both end up keeping the video output that they initially requested.
I've been running it for a few hours now and the results seem stable.
To make it easier on myself, I have written two simple bash scripts that wait until the other script is running before they start the X servers. This ensures both start very close together.
Its not perfect. There is some minor occasional video corruption on the VGA output but the TV-OUT seems fine and its definitely usable.
Still be nice if NVIDIA could fix this properly
Have gotten the right DVI cable today and have tested with the DVI Output. I can get DVI + TVOUT and DVI + VGA to work, but a three-seat system of DVI + VGA + TVOUT does not seem to work.
One additional pointer to get it working is that the DVI display seems to want to be started just before the TV-OUT display.
It seems though if you start the computer up with the DVI connected, then VGA + TVOUT stops working (error message : (EE) Oct 18 15:34:57 NVIDIA(0): Error setting DVC ), but its not really a huge problem.
One extra positive is that by using DVI+TVOUT instead of the VGA+TVOUT, it seems to fix the display corruption issue.
