Just Arrived: MSI 990FXA-Gaming Motherboard
Subject: Motherboards | May 21, 2015 - 11:34 PM | Josh Walrath
Tagged: msi, amd, 990fx, FX-8370, FX-9590, sli, crossfire, SoundBlaster, killer nic, usb 3.1
Several weeks ago MSI officially announced the 990FXA-Gaming motherboard for the AM3+ market. The board is based on the tried and true 990FX and SB950 combo, but it adds a new wrinkle to the game: USB 3.1 support. MSI has released the other AMD based USB 3.1 board on the market, the 970 Krait.
Quite a few people were excited about this part, as the AM3+ market has been pretty stagnant as of late. This is not necessarily surprising considering that AMD has not launched a new AM3+ chip since Fall of 2014 with a couple of "efficiency" chips as well as the slightly faster FX-8370.
There was some speculation based on early photographs that the board could have a more robust power delivery system than previous AM3+ boards, but alas, that is not the case. Upon closer inspection it appears as though MSI has gone the 6+2 phase route. If there are good quality components in there, you can potentially run the 220 watt TDP FX-9000 series parts, but these puppies are not officially supported. In fact, I received an email saying that I might want to be really careful in my choice of CPUs as well as being extremely careful when overclocking.
The board still has some real potential at being a really nice home for the 125 watt TDP and below parts. The audio portion looks very well designed and features the SoundBlaster Cinema 2. It supports both SLI and CrossFire in native 2 x 16x (highly doubtful with 3 cards with the way the slots are configured). It has the Killer NIC ethernet suite which may or may not be a selling point, depending on who you ask.
Overall the board is an interesting addition to the club, but I really wouldn't trust it with the FX-9000 series chips. I have a 970 Gaming that came with the FX-9590 that had a similar power delivery system, and it ran like a champ; there is a possibility that the board will run this combination. This is going to be installed this weekend and I will start the benchmarking! Keep tuned!
Could it be a 980 Ti, or does the bill of lading lie?

The source of leaks and rumours is often unexpected, such as this import data of a shipment headed from China into India. Could this 6GB card be the GTX 980 Ti that so many have theorized would be coming sometime around AMD's release of their new cards? Does the fact that 60,709 Indian Rupees equal 954.447 US Dollars put a damper on your excitement or could it be that these 6 lonely cards are being sold at a higher rate overseas than they might be in the US?
We don't know but we do know there is a mysterious card out there somewhere.

Tagged: XL2730Z, freesync, benq, amd
Ryan wasn't the only one to test BenQ's XL2730Z 27-in 2560x1440 144 Hz FreeSync Monitor, The Tech Report also had a chance to test one, as well as talk to NVIDIA's Tom Petersen about their competing technology. They also had a chance to discuss FreeSync in general with AMD's David Glen who is one of the engineers behind FreeSync. Their benchmarks and overall impression of the displays capabilities and FreeSync in general are a major portion of the review but the discussion with the two company representatives makes for even more interesting reading.
"AMD's FreeSync is here, personified in BenQ's XL2730Z monitor. We've gone deep into the display's performance and smoothness, with direct comparisons to G-Sync using 240-fps video. Here's what we found."

Running an EXT4 RAID on the Linux 4.0 kernel? Better spray for bugs!
Subject: General Tech | May 21, 2015 - 12:40 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: linux, EXT4, raid, bug
On Tuesday a bug was discovered to have been introduced to Linux 4.0 kernel when a fix was added to deal with RAIDs where the chunksize not a power of 2, a problem present since Linux 3.14-rc1. This fix has been causing corruption on RAIDs and the file system on that RAID, making many an unhappy Arch Linux user. Only users of rolling release flavours will be effected, distros with scheduled updates like RHEL or Ubuntu are not effected at this time. The good news is that as of today there is a fix available if you wish to apply it, as well as defining the fix which caused the issue. Check out both at Phoronix.
"A few days ago we reported on an EXT4 file-system corruption issue being discovered within the stable Linux 4.0 kernel series. The good news is the issue has been uncovered and a patch is available, but it could still be a few days before it starts getting sent out in stable updates."

For owners of Z97 or X99 boards with updated UEFIs or a rare SFF-8643 connector for the 2.5" version, booting from NVMe is possible, for the rest the Intel SSD 750 will have to be a storage drive. Al recently looked at this more than impressive PCIe SSD and now [H]ard|OCP has had a bash at it. The review is certainly worth checking out as some of their tests, especially the real world ones, differ from the benchmarks that Al used. This will give you more information about how the new SSD will handle your workloads, research worth it if you are thinking of spending $1055 for the 1.2TB model.
"Intel is set to be the catalyst for a long-awaited leap forward in storage technology with the new SSD 750 bringing NVMe storage to client PCs for the first time, and turning the high end SSD space upside-down. We are expecting blinding IOPs and we dig in to find out what it can mean to the hardware enthusiast."

The new and not quite as pretty as advertised Witcher is here from CD Projekt RED, available from GoG among other places. Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN have started another one of their ongoing diaries to share their experiences, so far involving a bare bum and the amazing Tutorial Man. They also went straight for the dream sequence right off the bat; a smart move to get that over and done with in the early stages. There will be more, as this is a very large game. If you are looking for more details on graphics settings than to turn off Vidal Sasson, there is a post here discussing the options they used as well as the links below.

Tagged: twitter, google
Several years back Google thought it would be fun to include Tweets in Google searches and while they were smart to discontinue that, the reasoning behind ending it, Google+, may not have been as sound. According to Slashdot, once again your searches for information on Google will be accompanied by 140 character posts of scintillating wisdom which will obviously impart far more knowledge than the citation you were looking for. This should also do wonders for those looking to limit the perspectives and opinions they are exposed to as dissenting views can easily be drowned out by tweets that reinforce your beliefs just by minor alterations the text in your search.
On the plus side, one comment on Slashdot shows how to add operators back into your searches, just paste &tbs=li:1 at the end of the URL once you have searched.
Add "&tbs=li:1" to your keyword search string. For example: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&tbs=li:1
"Google will now begin showing tweets alongside search results. Mobile users searching via the Android/iOS apps or through the browser will start seeing the tweets immediately, while the desktop version is "coming shortly." The tweets will only be available for the searches in English to start, but Twitter says they'll be adding more languages soon."

Tagged: memory, high bandwidth memory, hbm, Fiji, amd
Ryan and the rest of the crew here at PC Perspective are excited about AMD's new memory architecture and the fact that they will be first to market with it. However as any intelligent reader is wont to look for; a second opinion on the topic is worth finding. Look no further than The Tech Report who have also been briefed on AMD's new memory architecture. Read on to see what they learned from Joe Macri and their thoughts on the successor to GDDR5 and HBM2 which is already in the works.
"HBM is the next generation of memory for high-bandwidth applications like graphics, and AMD has helped usher it to market. Read on to find out more about HBM and what we've learned about the memory subsystem in AMD's next high-end GPU, code-named Fiji."

A new and improved AiO watercooler from SilverStone, the Tundra TD02-E
Subject: Cases and Cooling | May 19, 2015 - 02:55 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Silverstone, Tundra TD02-E, CPU Water Block
SilverStone's Tundra TD02-E is a 240mm radiator, 278x124x27mm in total, with a hefty weight of 1.5kg which you should keep in mind when thinking where to place it. We have had quite a few reviews of SilverStone's Tundra series, from Ryan's look at the original model 9 years ago, to Morry's recent reviews of the TD02 and TD03. The TD02-E is an updated model with newer tubing and a slimmer radiator, which [H]ard|OCP compared to previous models and other competitors. Their testing showed equivalent performance to the initial model with reduced noise and if you shop around, a reduced price as well.
"SilverStone is no stranger to us when it comes to All-In-One liquid CPU coolers. The new Tundra Series TD02-E AIO is SilverStone's updated version of its TD02 120mm dual fan cooler. SilverStone is not very clear on what exactly is better about this cooler, but we will put it through its paces to see if we have a better AIO."

NVIDIA Under Attack Again for GameWorks in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Subject: Graphics Cards | May 17, 2015 - 12:04 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: The Witcher 3, nvidia, hairworks, gameworks, amd
I feel like every few months I get to write more stories focusing on the exact same subject. It's almost as if nothing in the enthusiast market is happening and thus the cycle continues, taking all of us with it on a wild ride of arguments and valuable debates. Late last week I started hearing from some of my Twitter followers that there were concerns surrounding the upcoming release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Then I found a link to this news post over at Overclock3d.net that put some of the information in perspective.
Essentially, The Witcher 3 uses parts of NVIDIA's GameWorks development tools and APIs, software written by NVIDIA to help game developers take advantage of new technologies and to quickly and easily implement them into games. The problem of course is that GameWorks is written and developed by NVIDIA. That means that optimizations for AMD Radeon hardware are difficult or impossible, depending on who you want to believe. Clearly it doesn't benefit NVIDIA to optimize its software for AMD GPUs financially, though many in the community would like NVIDIA to give a better effort - for the good of said community.
Specifically in regards to The Witcher 3, the game implements NVIDIA HairWorks technology to add realism on many of the creatures of the game world. (Actually, the game includes HairWorks, HBAO+, PhysX, Destruction and Clothing but our current discussion focuses on HairWorks.) All of the marketing and video surrounding The Witcher 3 has been awesome and the realistic animal fur simulation has definitely been a part of it. However, it appears that AMD Radeon GPU users are concerned that performance with HairWorks enabled will suffer.
An example of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with HairWorks
One of the game's developers has been quoted as such:
Many of you have asked us if AMD Radeon GPUs would be able to run NVIDIA's HairWorks technology – the answer is yes! However, unsatisfactory performance may be experienced as the code of this feature cannot be optimized for AMD products. Radeon users are encouraged to disable NVIDIA HairWorks if the performance is below expectations.
There are at least several interpretations of this statement floating around the web. First, and most enflaming, is that NVIDIA is not allowing CD Project Red to optimize it by not offering source code. Another is that CD Project is choosing to not optimize for AMD hardware due to time considerations. The last is that it simply isn't possible to optimize it because of hardware limitations of HairWorks.
I went to NVIDIA with these complaints about HairWorks and Brian Burke gave me this response:
We are not asking game developers do anything unethical.
GameWorks improves the visual quality of games running on GeForce for our customers. It does not impair performance on competing hardware.
Demanding source code access to all our cool technology is an attempt to deflect their performance issues. Giving away your IP, your source code, is uncommon for anyone in the industry, including middleware providers and game developers. Most of the time we optimize games based on binary builds, not source code.
GameWorks licenses follow standard industry practice. GameWorks source code is provided to developers that request it under license, but they can't redistribute our source code to anyone who does not have a license.
The bottom line is AMD's tessellation performance is not very good and there is not a lot NVIDIA can/should do about it. Using DX11 tessellation has sound technical reasoning behind it, it helps to keep the GPU memory footprint small so multiple characters can use hair and fur at the same time.
I believe it is a resource issue. NVIDIA spent a lot of artist and engineering resources to help make Witcher 3 better. I would assume that AMD could have done the same thing because our agreements with developers don't prevent them from working with other IHVs. (See also, Project Cars)
I think gamers want better hair, better fur, better lighting, better shadows and better effects in their games. GameWorks gives them that.
Interesting comments for sure. The essential take away from this is that HairWorks depends heavily on tessellation performance and we have known since the GTX 680 was released that NVIDIA's architecture performs better than AMD's GCN for tessellation - often by a significant amount. NVIDIA developed its middleware to utilize the strength of its own GPU technology and while it's clear that some disagree, not to negatively impact AMD. Did NVIDIA know that would be the case when it was developing the software? Of course it did. Should it have done something to help AMD GPUs more gracefully fall back? Maybe.
Next, I asked Burke directly if claims that NVIDIA was preventing AMD or the game developer from optimizing HairWorks for other GPUs and platforms were true? I was told that both AMD and CD Project had the ability to tune the game, but in different ways. The developer could change the tessellation density based on the specific GPU detected (lower for a Radeon GPU with less tessellation capability, for example) but that would require dedicated engineering from either CD Project or AMD to do. AMD, without access to the source code, should be able to make changes in the driver at the binary level, similar to how most other driver optimizations are built. Burke states that in these instances NVIDIA often sends engineers to work with game developers and that AMD "could have done the same had it chosen to." And again, NVIDIA reiterated that in no way do its agreements with game developers prohibit optimization for AMD GPUs.
It would also be possible for AMD to have pushed for the implementation of TressFX in addition to HairWorks; a similar scenario played out in Grand Theft Auto V where several vendor-specific technologies were included from both NVIDIA and AMD, customized through in-game settings.
NVIDIA has never been accused of being altruistic; it doesn't often create things and then share it with open arms to the rest of the hardware community. But it has to be understood that game developers know this as well - they are not oblivious. CD Project knew that HairWorks performance on AMD would be poor but decided to implement the technology into The Witcher 3 anyway. They were willing to sacrifice performance penalties for some users to improve the experience of others. You can argue that is not the best choice, but at the very least The Witcher 3 will let you disable the HairWorks feature completely, removing it from the performance debate all together.
In a perfect world for consumers, NVIDIA and AMD would walk hand-in-hand through the fields and develop hardware and software in tandem, making sure all users get the best possible experience with all games. But that style of work is only helpful (from a business perspective) for the organization attempting to gain market share, not the one with the lead. NVIDIA doesn't have to do it and chooses to not. If you don't want to support that style, vote with your wallet.
Another similar controversy surrounded the recent release of Project Cars. AMD GPU performance was significantly lower than comparable NVIDIA GPUs, even though this game does not implement any GameWorks technologies. In that case, the game's developer directly blamed AMD's drivers, saying that it was a lack of reaching out from AMD that caused the issues. AMD has since recanted its stance that the performance delta was "deliberate" and says a pending driver update will address gamers performance issues.
All arguing aside, this game looks amazing. Can we all agree on that?
The only conclusion I can come to from all of this is that if you don't like what NVIDIA is doing, that's your right - and you aren't necessarily wrong. There will be plenty of readers that see the comments made by NVIDIA above and continue to believe that they are being at best disingenuous and at worst, are straight up lying. As I mentioned above in my own comments NVIDIA is still a for-profit company that is responsible to shareholders for profit and growth. And in today's world that sometimes means working against other companies than with them, resulting in impressive new technologies for its customers and push back from competitor's customers. It's not fun, but that's how it works today.
Fans of AMD will point to G-Sync, GameWorks, CUDA, PhysX, FCAT and even SLI as indications of NVIDIA's negative impact on open PC gaming. I would argue that more users would look at that list and see improvements to PC gaming, progress that helps make gaming on a computer so much better than gaming on a console. The truth likely rests somewhere in the middle; there will always be those individuals that immediately side with one company or the other. But it's the much larger group in the middle, that shows no corporate allegiance and instead just wants to have as much fun as possible with gaming, that will impact NVIDIA and AMD the most.
So, since I know it will happen anyway, use the comments page below to vent your opinion. But, for the benefit of us all, try to keep it civil!
NVIDIA SHIELD and SHIELD Pro Show up on Amazon

Tagged: Tegra X1, tegra, shield pro, shield console, shield, nvidia
UPDATE: Whoops! It appears that Amazon took the listing down... No surprise there. I'm sure we'll be seeing them again VERY SOON. :)
Looks like the release of the new NVIDIA SHIELD console device, first revealed back at GDC in March, is nearly here. A listing for "NVIDIA SHIELD" as well as the new "NVIDIA SHIELD Pro" showed up on Amazon.com today.
Though we don't know what the difference between the SHIELD and SHIELD Pro are officially, according to Amazon at least, the difference appears to be the internal storage. The Pro model will ship with 500GB of internal storage, the non-Pro model will only have 16GB. You'll have to get an SD Card for more storage on the base model if you plan on doing anything other than streaming games through NVIDIA GRID it seems.
No pricing is listed yet and there is no release date on the Amazon pages either, but we have always been told this was to be a May or June on-sale date. Both models of the NVIDIA SHIELD will include an HDMI cable, a micro-USB cable and a SHIELD Controller. If you want the remote or stand, you're going to have to pay out a bit more.
For those of you that missed out on the original SHIELD announcement from March, here is a quick table detailing the specs, as we knew them at that time.

Raptr's Top PC Games of April 2015
Subject: General Tech | May 15, 2015 - 11:56 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: raptr, pc gaming
The PC gaming utility, Raptr, is normally used to optimize in-game settings, chat and socialize, and record game footage. It also keeps track of game-hours and aggregates them into a list once per month, which makes it one of the few sources for this type of data on the PC. We were late on it last month, which means that another was posted just a week later.
April marks the release of Grand Theft Auto V for the PC. It went live on the 14th and, despite only counting for half of the month, ended up at 4th place. Next month's survey will tell us whether the post-release drop-off was countered by counting Grand Theft Auto for a full month, which is double what they have now. It was just 0.17% of global play time behind CS:GO. Despite an error on the graph, it knocked DOTA 2 down to fifth, and Diablo III down to sixth. In fact, just about everything below Grand Theft Auto V dropped at least one rank.
Only three games actually gained places this month: ArcheAge, Warframe, and Spider Solitaire. Yes, that game is now the 19th most played, as tracked by Raptr. You could sort-of say that Hearthstone gained a rank by not losing one, but you would be wrong. Why would you say that?
League of Legends dropped less than a percent of total play time, settling in at about 21%. This is just about on target for the game, which proves that not even Rockstar can keep people from having a Riot.
NVIDIA Releases 352.84 WHQL Drivers for Windows 10
Subject: Graphics Cards | May 15, 2015 - 11:36 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: windows 10, geforce, graphics drivers, nvidia, whql
The last time that NVIDIA has released a graphics driver for Windows 10, they added a download category to their website for the pre-release operating system. Since about January, graphics driver updates were pushed by Windows Update and, before that, you would need to use Windows 8.1 drivers. Receiving drivers from Windows Update also meant that add-ons, such as PhysX runtimes and the GeForce Experience, would not be bundled with it. I know that some have installed them separately, but I didn't.
The 352.84 release, which is their second Windows 10 driver to be released outside of Windows Update, is also certified by WHQL. NVIDIA has recently been touting Microsoft certification for many of their drivers. Historically, they released a large number of Beta drivers that were stable, but did not wait for Microsoft to vouch for them. For one reason or another, they have put a higher priority on that label, even for "Game Ready" drivers that launch alongside a popular title.
For some reason, the driver is only available via GeForce Experience and NVIDIA.com, but not GeForce.com. I assume NVIDIA will publish it there soon, too.
Oculus Rift "Full Rift Experience" Specifications Released
Subject: Graphics Cards, Processors, Displays, Systems | May 15, 2015 - 03:02 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Oculus, oculus vr, nvidia, amd, geforce, radeon, Intel, core i5
Today, Oculus has published a list of what they believe should drive their VR headset. The Oculus Rift will obviously run on lower hardware. Their minimum specifications, published last month and focused on the Development Kit 2, did not even list a specific CPU or GPU -- just a DVI-D or HDMI output. They then went on to say that you really should use a graphics card that can handle your game at 1080p with at least 75 fps.
The current list is a little different:
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 / AMD Radeon R9 290 (or higher)
- Intel Core i5-4590 (or higher)
- 8GB RAM (or higher)
- A compatible HDMI 1.3 output
- 2x USB 3.0 ports
- Windows 7 SP1 (or newer).
I am guessing that, unlike the previous list, Oculus has a more clear vision for a development target. They were a little unclear about whether this refers to the consumer version or the current needs of developers. In either case, it would likely serve as a guide for what they believe developers should target when the consumer version launches.
This post also coincides with the release of the Oculus PC SDK 0.6.0. This version pushes distortion rendering to the Oculus Server process, rather than the application. It also allows multiple canvases to be sent to the SDK, which means developers can render text and other noticeable content at full resolution, but scale back in places that the user is less likely to notice. They can also be updated at different frequencies, such as sleeping the HUD redraw unless a value changes.
The Oculus PC SDK (0.6.0) is now available at the Oculus Developer Center.
Budget headphones that are just good enough, Ozone Rage ST
Subject: General Tech | May 15, 2015 - 02:01 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: audio, ozone, Rage ST, gaming headset
With a pricetag of $40 many may be a bit leery of purchasing the Ozone Rage ST Headset as it is significantly lower in price than most gaming headsets which implies lower quality too. It does use the 40mm drivers common in most headsets with a response range of 20-20kHz but the microphone is omnidirectional as opposed to unidirectional which means you will send background noise. Modders-Inc tried it out and were pleasantly surprised; while it has none of the extra features that $100+ headsets do, the overall quality was worth the price of admission. If you are in need of a headset but are strapped for cash, these are a good choice for you.
"Despite the stereotype, gamers are social creatures too. Competitive games after all requires another person to play with, but as expressive as some gestures may be such as virtual teabagging, it is not nearly as effective in conveying what you really feel when you shout out expletives through a headset. It feels very natural in fact that one almost feels …"

Subject: Mobile | May 15, 2015 - 01:56 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: video, mali, jem davies, interview, arm
Have you ever wondered how a mobile GPU is born? Or how the architecture of a mobile GPU like ARM Mali differs from the technology in your discrete PC graphics card? Perhaps you just want to know if ideas like HBM (high bandwidth memory) are going to find their way into the mobile ecosystem any time soon?
Josh and I sat down (virtually) with ARM's VP of Technology and Fellow, Jem Davies, to answer these questions and quite a bit more. The resulting interview will shed light on the design process of a mobile GPU, how you get the most out of an SoC that measures power by the milliwatt, what the world of mobile benchmarking needs to do to clean up its act and quite a bit more.
You'd be hard pressed to find a better way to spend the next hour of your day as you will without a doubt walk away more informed about the world of smartphones, tablets and GPUs.

The Indianapolis Colts have confirmed plans to keep their training camp in Anderson. The team moved the pre-season workouts to Anderson University in 2010 after more than a decade at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute.
May 7, 2012
News Release
Indianapolis, Ind. -- The Indianapolis Colts have announced that the team will return to Anderson University for its 2012 training camp. Players will report on July 28 with the first day of practice starting on July 29.
�Our staff made several visits to the Anderson campus and we were extremely pleased with its amenities and layout,� said General Manager Ryan Grigson. �The university staff is tremendous and we trust their experience having conducted past camps. We feel Anderson is in a great location to connect with Colts fans around the state of Indiana, which is one of our biggest priorities.�
Indianapolis originally spent training camp at Anderson from its inaugural season in 1984 to 1998. Following 11 years at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute, Indiana, the Colts returned to Anderson in 2010.
Anderson is a private Christian university of 2,600 undergraduate and graduate students in central Indiana. The Colts have witnessed a strong following of fans attending camp in Anderson and last year alone, attendance for the team�s three night practices reached 28,000. In 2010, training camp drew approximately 85,000 fans over an 18-day period.

Thursday, October 11
8:00 am Morning Coffee
8:30 Chairperson's Remarks
Marcel van Duin, Ph.D., Executive Director and Head, Department of Pharmacology, NV Organon
8:40 Uncovering Unexploited Biology on Halted Drugs
Chizuko Koseki, Ph.D., Vice President, Drug Profiling Platform Unit, Sosei Co. Ltd.
In order to look for the potential of second biological target on halted drug candidates, Sosei has established a unique business model, the Drug Reprofiling Platform. Our efforts in the last several years are giving some answers to our original questions, is there any possibility to identify a new use on halted drugs, if so, how? Can we develop it for a new indication which was originally un-identified? Our DRP business model and some outcomes will be introduced.
9:15 Repositioning at Organon - Just for Halted Drugs?
Anja Garritsen, Ph.D., Executive Director Target Discovery, NV Organon
Repositioning at Organon started with the identification of drugs that were discontinued at various stages of the development process. Based on this compound list, we established a number of collaborations with repositioning companies. This allowed us to exploit a range of philosophies and technologies and explore the possibilities in various therapeutic areas to the fullest. Currently, the concept of exploring the full therapeutic potential of our compounds, also in earlier phases of discovery, is catching on. Efforts range from cross-screening sets of compounds on a variety of targets to a focus search for new indications for compounds.
9:45 CIPRO: The Creation of a New Blockbuster
Hans-Joachim Zeiler, Ph.D., Consultant, Innovation, Bayer/HighTech Private Equity
Ciprofloxacin was identified in 1981 as a new, highly attractive antimicrobial agent. The use of knowledge about properties of older drug classes and the creation of a chemical niche allowed Bayer to build in new properties into such a molecule which made it useful for the treatment of severe systemic infections. This drug became one of the biggest successes in the field of antimicrobial therapy.
10:15 Poster Session, Exhibit Viewing and Coffee Break
10:45 Drug Repositioning Using a Multiplexed in Vivo Platform: Discovery of MLR-1023, A Repositioned Drug Candidate for Type II Diabetes
Michael S. Saporito, Ph.D., Vice President, Research, Melior Discovery Inc.
We have developed a unique repositioning approach involving a platform comprised of multiple in vivo models representing diverse therapeutic areas. The power of this platform is illustrated by our lead compound, MLR-1023. This compound, originally developed for ulcers, exhibits robust activity in a panel of clinically relevant models of type II diabetes and is currently being developed for this indication. Of importance was the identification of a previously unknown molecular target for type II diabetes. This example of Melior Discovery's approach demonstrates the potential for capturing new indications from existing molecules, and the potential for expanding our understanding of the underlying biological basis of disease.

2:15 Automated Robotic Molecular Profiling in Cells for New Therapeutic Directions
Jeremy S. Caldwell, Ph.D., Director of Molecular and Cell Biology, Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation
Small molecule cross reactivity against multiple targets can simultaneously afford broad therapeutic utility and problematic non-specific effects in man. Quantitative methods to rapidly characterize molecules in a broad array of cellular assays would reveal the range of functions associated with small molecules and impart a more thorough profile of drug candidates early in the drug development process. Here we describe a high-throughput approach to discover the multiple activities of small molecule libraries analyzed in parallel against a broad array of phenotypic cellular assays, and the robotic infrastructure necessary to perform these measurements.
2:45 Poster Session, Exhibit Viewing and Refreshment Break
3:15 An Efficient Platform for Genetic Target and Compound Positioning
David Grass, Ph.D, Vice President Scientific Operations, Caliper Discovery Alliances and Services, Caliper Life Sciences
Given the challenges facing the biopharmaceutical industry, including
increased drug discovery and development timelines, fewer IND and NDA submissions per R&D dollar investment, and diminishing drug exclusivity timelines, it has become extremely important to identify potential indications for both genetic targets and compounds as early and as efficiently as possible. Caliper Discovery Alliances and Services (CDAS, Xenogen Biosciences) has created a broad platform which uses mice to comprehensively characterize genetic targets and compounds. This platform utilizes in vivo assays that are relevant to most of the major therapeutic areas. For genetic targets, this platform allows for efficient target validation and early positioning of potential therapeutics. For compounds, this platform identifies unanticipated "pre-positioning" opportunities for earlier stage compounds as well as repositioning opportunities for existing therapeutics and clinical development compounds.
3:45 Characterizing the Multiple Activities of Kinase Inhibitors
Petra Ross-Macdonald, Ph.D., Senior Research Investigator,Applied Genomics, Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.
Using a novel approach to identify genes that exhibit dose-responsebehavior, we can examine compound potency, selectivity, on- and off-target activities, and underlying biology across the therapeutic doserange. This strategy is being employed to identify distinct activitieswithin and between compounds.

text: On Monday, April 18, Associate Professor and Head Athletic Trainer Daryl Mullholand will be competing in the Boston Marathon. The world-famous Boston Marathon is the oldest annual marathon and one of the most well-known courses. According to the website, the Boston Athletic Association manages the race, sponsored by John Hancock Financial Services. Competitors train for many years to qualify for the 26-mile race. After finishing with a strong time of 3:30:42 at the Tampa Bay Gasparilla Marathon in April, Daryl qualified for the prestigious Boston Marathon. I would truly like to give praise to the Lord, for without Him I could do nothing, said Daryl. I was fortunate to qualify last year for entrance into the event, and now, after many months of training and countless miles, I am ready to run the race. The Boston Marathon is a unique course with hills located at very tough spots, he said when describing the terrain of the race. An infamous hill called heartbreak hill is situated at mile 19. The first 3.5 miles are downhill, so it tends to affect your thigh muscles because of the type of contraction. You must be patient on this downhill and not get caught up with going out too fast. Easier said than done, from what Im told! Daryls marathon BIB number is 11918 and will be monitored through the AT&T Athlete Alert system. Long-distance supporters can watch his progress at the AT&T Athlete Alert link: http://www.baa.org/races/boston-marathon/participant-information/att-athlete-alert.aspx. Updates will be given at the 10k, half, 30k, and finish marks. Daryl will be in the second wave of runners beginning at 10:20 a.m., and he anticipates crossing the finish line between 1:45-2:05 p.m. Daryl is requesting prayer for safety and strength through the race. I am so excited for this unique opportunity to be a part of such an elite eventI am honored to represent Clearwater Christian College. UPDATE: Daryl finished strong with a time of 3:46:44. 24,338 men and women ran in the 11 Boston Marathon. Print Article

The ancient castles that are scattered across the length and breadth of Britain are testaments to the country's fascinating past. Some have weathered and crumbled in time, leaving ruins ready to be explored. Others stand as proud as they once did when they were first built. However, they have all witnessed some of the world's most significant events in history, from monumental invasions and the highest of celebrations to the bloodiest of battles.
It is believed that as many as 1000 Motte and Bailey castles were built in England by the Normans in the Middle Ages.

Could the war between
Blu-ray and
HD-DVD be over before it even begins? Nothing's 100% yet, but a Japanese newspaper is reporting that Sony and
Toshiba have managed to set aside their differences and are very close to compromising on a single next-generation DVD
format (which we don't have to go through another one of those VHS vs. Beta things). The plan, which reportedly
involves combining Sony's recording technology with Toshiba's software for data transfer and copy protection, could be
unveiled as early as Monday. No word on what the new unified format might be called, how long we'll have to wait for the first
players and recorders that are compatible with the new format to hit stores, or what happens to everyone in Japan who
already bought a Blu-ray disc recorder.

The Car: 2012 BMW X5 xDriver35d
Where I Drove It: From the airport, to the banks of the Detroit River, to the yoga studio in Birmingham, Michigan to the Moth Mainstage at the Fillmore Theatre.
First Impressions: The BMW X5 diesel edition is a fine example of how one can experience superior comfort in sophisticated moderation. I picked up the vehicle at the airport on a brisk Michigan afternoon. Two clicks of the smart key, trunk open, suitcase loaded and the X5 came to life. In a short moment the cabin warmed and I pulled onto the road. The X5 appeared born ready. Yet, I immediately noticed the hefty weight of the steering wheel. Two hands were needed to turn the X5. BMWs are by definition made to perform, but when you're weary, this technical feature designed for big-boy handling, can feel more like work if you're not used to working the wheel. While some may harken this mindset to demure ladies, in reality, what it requires is a firm grip on the wheel. If you're the driver that attempts to balance a device in one hand and coffee cup in the other, then you'll have to adapt to traditional approach to driving with two hands on the wheel. On the bright side, you'll be safer this way. The payoff came with the pulse of the pedal as I turned onto the main road, all the power necessary to feel bossy.
Second date: The X5 became the go-to car for the group of adults who traveled to Detroit to perform with the Moth at the Fillmore Theatre. Let's pause for a moment and talk about the psychology of an X5 — very VIP, and in the Motor City, not so common place. The other travelers were car-less so I volunteered to be chauffeur to rehearsal dinner and to the performance. It's not often that you get five full-grown adults inside of a BMW, but it's an excellent way to judge the execution of luxury marque — the wow factor. From the passenger seat to the rear, the guests palmed the creamy leather on the interior and nestled into the well-lit cabin space. My midsize test vehicle did not come with an optional third row — so three adults sat side-by-side on the back bench. The heated rear seats were a big hit. When I asked, everyone claimed plenty of leg room. One passenger had an X5 in her family. Her mother worshipped the heated steering wheel, she said. Their experience was enhanced by the options, which made the X5 live up to the cache of the BMW badging.
On the inside: The combo of standard featuress worked in the X5′s favor including the panoramic moonroof, park distance control, and extras including sport activity package, cold weather package with heated steering wheel, heated rear seats. Of course, my test X5 had considerable extras including the Premium package, which comes with a rear view camera, window shades, voice command and real time traffic information. The technology package includes side beams, side view camera and head-up display. I also found lane departure warning helpful, because in the architecture make up in the X5, there are several blind spots. Wish I would've spent more time investigating the BMW apps.
MPG: Diesel means this big dude earns a respectable 19 in city conditions and 26 on the highway. It's a big capacity gas tank that just keeps giving.
Under the Hood: The sauce is in the 3.0-liter, 24 valve inline, 6 cylinder dual overhead cam, twin turbo with advanced diesel. You hit the throttle and you can run with the best of them on Detroit speedy freeway system. The engine whirs emitting a deep bass hum. In case you find yourself easing down a hill to get to the Franklin Cider Mill like I did, you can engage hill descent control.
Five Days Later: In Michigan, in late fall, winter weather is common. The X5 I tested was equipped with winter driving wear like standard all-wheel drive, xenon adaptive headlights and intermittent rain-sensing wipers, and I always felt steady in a early wintery mix. The 2013 model has slight updates, so it's safe to stay, that the the X5d is steady for the course — X marks the spot. If you're looking for more performance updates, Car Connection highlights those here.
The Contenders: Mercedes-Benz ML, Infiniti FX, Range Rover Sport, Acura MDX
What People Said:
"Never mind that BMW X5 xDrive35d has an awkward name—this midsize crossover is a good value. It's one of only three diesels with a purchase price* as calculated by Vincentric that is lower than that of its gas-powered counterpart, the BMW X5 xDrive35i, albeit just $597 lower." Matthew DePaula for Forbes.com.
"What the X5 has is an extraordinary pedigree – it is by far the most blue-chip member of its class – and plenty of high-cost, high-value German engineering. That also means that it is expensive. Also, the X5 feels heavy; perhaps too heavy for some female buyers" — Joe DeMatio, Deputy Editor, Automobile Magazine
"On the downside, the X5′s steering is overly heavy at parking lot speeds, even if its hefty nature adds precision on the open road. We're not fans of optional active steering in other BMWs, but it's well-suited to an SUV like the X5. Road and wind noise are pleasantly muted, but buyers looking for a Lexus-like comfy-couch ride may find this Bimmer a bit firm." Edmunds on the 2012.
Price Range: The base price is $56,700, but the options on my test car increased the price by nearly $13,000, totaling at $69,495.

Hurricane Irene damage could stimulate the economy, or not
- (Photo: Associated Press)
Hurricane Irene spun up the coast and caused billions of dollars in damage. The good news is that it will take billions of dollars to fix everything. Economic recovery, here we come!
Peter Morici, a business professor at the University of Maryland, tells WUSA that there's an economic upside: "We rebuild better. On the shore folks will often build better properties, better-constructed, larger, to bring more tourism to the area."
The necessary money isn't going to appear out of thin air, though, and thanks to the Republicans, it's becoming less likely that it'll come from the federal government. That means it'll come from the affected towns, businesses, and homeowners. Some of that money will, in turn, go to con artists who overcharge for repairs (or simply take the money and run), but maybe they'll spend their loot at Best Buy and Target?
Ocean City sure could use that cash. The seaside destination was spared major destruction, but Irene took away an prime weekend's worth of profit. With Labor Day almost upon us, city businesses will need big crowds to recoup their losses.
We're confused. So do we want this to happen again or not?

Well, if the robber goes blind, he'll end up on welfare and disability and taxpayers still end up paying.
There are other ways around this, they can set priority cell phone numbers in the switch software, those go through, all others are blocked.
Cell company's won't tell them that because they can figure out how to make money off the prison/state.

This morning I heard on the scanner some idiot untrained boater calling the Costa Guard to report a strange buoy out near Avon Point.
I listened to see if it was a "Diver Flag", it wasn't.
Turns out it was the buoy marker for the water-intake.
Gee, I wonder why the Coast Guard offers "Boating Safety & Education classes "? Guess everyone on the water thinks they "Know-It-All"?
They do not and there are crashes and wrecks!
Apples on Oberlin Ave in Lorain has a boiling canner with the jar lifter for around $20. I almost bought it yesterday.
What the heck are "insulated metal kitchen gloves"?
Or is that a typo?
FBI coming to Lorain, hopefully they won't stop after they are done investigating the Lorain PD.
Jimmy D? You mean "Fat Bx4trd"?
Since now of you live in public housing, you have no real idea what the heck you are talking about!
So everything you say is pointless and without any facts to back it up!
I am a disabled US Veteran and I live in public housing located in the center of downtown (NOT Cleveland) and I am not on Section 8. One-third (1/3) of my veterans disability check goes toward rent each month.
As far as children, they are not allowed to live in our building, only visit!
As far as I know, none of our buildings have live-in children. The ones on welfare and food stamps live in privately owned rented homes or apartments with government subsidized rent.
Drugs in public housing, yes, it happens, but several times a month police bring their dogs in, if someone is caught, they are booted-out.
With all the crime, drugs and shootings on city streets around here, I sometime wish I was armed. Since I am not, I don't go out at night, which really doesn't matter, they will shoot you in the daytime too.
