Open Quran Project - Please Get Involved.
<< < (2/2)
Abd r Raheem al Haq:
I've got a project started on Google Code, but I'm just starting to fill it out. Until Layth gets back to us on the legalities, it's all I can get done. I'll do a little browser and some other bits too, but I need the translation itself to start doing anything substantial and getting people involved.
Layth...? :)
holy man:
Inshallah all gets done soon
Salam Abdulraheem,
Not sure what you need me to do, but if you are looking for permission to use the electronic version of "The Quran - A Monotheist Translation" which is available on this site, then you have my full blessing.
Abd r Raheem al Haq:
Asalam Alaykum Brother Layth and thank you so much for your kindness.
I'll start right away, Inshallah it'll be really productive. I'll bring the thread up to date soon, once I've got something to show. Thank you again brother. Nice one.
Peace Abd r Raheem al Haq, everyone,
I am so happy to hear the news! but late in finding this thread :-[ Below are quotes from my past posts.
From Re: The Message by "The Monotheist Group" - not representative « Reply #13 on: Today at 12:07:00 AM »
"If possible, Abd r Raheem al Haq, could you make a new thread? I think what you are suggesting is neccessary and I hope inevitable. Maybe a new thread would clarify if and how the Monotheist Group's translation would fit into your broad plan . When I find a site/project such as you recommend I consider it alive and active, valuable to those who devote life-time, possibly containing advice relevant to life right now. (Like this forum! ^_^ )
and from http://free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9596946.msg277208#msg277208
"Even the esteemed corpus needs to put one word in the slot for the basic root. I do not agree with some of the words they chose, but everytime I open the site, I think "all thanks and praise to Almighty God -this is amazing". I could not hope to progress without the PRL, and many other conscientious study sites. That is what gives me enthusiasm for Abd r Raheem al Haq's ideas. I am happy to find the not-so-new thread about that!
Sometimes I just want to read though, possibly meditate, and I trust the Monotheistic Group's translation to be consistent in important topics...some of the reasons why it is the most valuable translation to me.
Smiles from Debbie ^_^"

Macrovision objected to the devices, which remove its copy protection from both VCR and DVD signals, making it simple for a user to copy movies (though only in analog format). Earlier this year, the Court agreed and issued a preliminary injunction against Sima, which was upheld in June.
Several other companies and organizations are siding with Sima, however, and are heading back to court. Macrovision's ACP is fairly easy to get around and found to be more than an annoyance than anything. Personally, I hope Sima gets their way. Too often people are trying to tell you what you're allowed to do with things you own. I think the quote from EFF sums up the entire situation quite nicely:
As the EFF puts it, "If Macrovision wins, digital video innovators will be stuck carrying the albatross of Macrovision's analog noise for years to come."
Let's hope this turns out for the good.

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM)- Don't be surprised to have someone knocking on your door this weekend, seeking your support for their candidate or issue.
With the election 96 hours away, we are now in the final countdown.Soon the campaign commercials and robocalls at dinner will stop, but not before they increase all the way to Tuesday.
At the Democratic and Republican offices in Grand Rapids Friday, volunteers were stuffing packets of campaign literature that will be delivered to targeted neighborhoods Saturday. Door-to-door campaigning will occur everywhere, as the campaigns make their closing arguments.
Michigan is not a presidential battleground state, but there are plenty of contests, especially the six proposals facing voters. Spending on them is expected to top $140 million, saturating the airwaves at television stations, including WZZM TV 13.

Where did you find that concept? It's at a crazy wonderful resolution for a wallpaper. Are there more?
I was saving up to buy a new MacBook Pro.
I took a 5 month vacation with the money instead.
I still want a new one though. I'll just have to start saving again...
Not wanting to get into a huge battle here. I know that a PC is more logical in a lot of ways. I just prefer my macbook over most laptops that I've had or used. My macbook has outlasted three of my sister's laptops, my brother's two desktop PCs, and three of my grandparent's laptops. Personally, I think that's pretty rad. (Also, this fucker is like 4 years old now :/)
If you bought a laptop at the same price point of a Macbook Pro, it would outlast anything else including the Macbook Pro. Right from the start it would have much superior specs to the Macbook Pro.
In response to amit: except laptops don't last very long, no matter the price. I assume this is the same for macs.
<3 To all of you!
I don't hate the game, I hate the studio! DICE, Treyarch, Infinity Ward, Activision, Electronic Arts can suck it!

please, please answer!
May 16, 2005
My brother that is 16 was just diagnosed with hepititus today (may 11th), he has been very sick and throwing up since last sunday (may 8th) but we dont know if he has hepititus A,B, or C yet.
I was wondering if it ends up him having hepititus C I know there's a cure, but how effective is it and how long are the treatments usually?
And also I know it can be transmitted through blood, but can it be transmitted sexually? or through saliva? and am I at risk at all of catching it? (I'm 17 by the way and i still live in the same household)
But what if it's hepititus b?, is there treatments and are they effective?
Response from Dr. Dieterich
Acute hepatitis C is virtually 100% curable with early treatment and is not sexually transmitted so you don't have to worry about getting that from your brother. Hepatitis A is very contagious and is transmitted easily in households, so until you know which kind he has he should use a separate bathroom from all of you and you should all do lots of handwashing. Hepatitis B almost always clears on its own but can be treated acutely if necessary. It is spread through blood like hepatitis C but can also be transmitted sexually. You and your brother should both have been vaccinated for this. Ask your pediatrician. Good luck, let us know which kind he has! DTD

Level 136
Level 136 is the eleventh level in Wafer Wharf and the ninth candy order level. To pass this level, you must collect 1 striped candy + striped candy combination, 1 wrapped candy + wrapped candy combination, and 2 colour bombs and score at least 30,000 points in 40 moves or fewer. If When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated.
- It may be hard combining special candies, especially wrapped and wrapped candies, and producing colour bombs.
- Blockers decrease the playing field, however, destroying the icings allows the chocolates to spread.
- Cascades will be whether good or bad here, especially with only five colours. It will cause the production of the special candies to occur more often, however the special candies that you need for combos may accidentally get activated.
- The orders are worth 12,000 points. [1] Hence, additional 18,000 points is required to earn one star.
- (2 special candies candies x 1,000 points per special candy) + (2 combination x 5,000 points per combination) = 12,000 points
- Clear all chocolates and icing to make more room.
- Combine wrapped candy with wrapped candy first as it is the hardest order to collect compared to the other two. Complete the first two orders as quickly as possible, as with only 5 colours, accidental cascades occur more frequently.
- It may be hard to combine candies when you have more spaces, but with more spaces, it is easier to make a colour bomb.

On Independence Creek (cloth)
Charlena Chandler
"Enjoyable anecdotes about ranch life, fishing and hunting, and the nostalgia of growing up during the 1940s and 1950s. . . . Charlena Chandler has produced an enjoyable book that takes us back to the fondly remembered mid-century in small-town West Texas."—Southwestern Historical Quarterly"Charlena Chandler's work is about the dreams and hard work of her grandfather, Charles Chandler, the vision and tenacity of her father, Joe Chandler, and the ebb and flow of life along Independence Creek, a large spring-fed tributary of the Pecos River south of Sheffield in Terrel County. . . . You might not know the characters in the book, but if you have ties to West Texas, you've known people like them. Chandler's book is full of West Texas colloquialisms and wit, but also a twinge of regret for the changes that time brings."—Scott Turner, Desert Mountain TimesDeep in southwest Texas a creek pours into the Pecos River. Because it flows from the west, one might expect that even in the rainiest of years it would be intermittent, but its flow is steady, and it is the largest freshwater tributary of the Pecos.As a result of its reliable, spring-fed flow, Independence Creek has had a long history. Indians camped along its banks for centuries before the white man arrived. Spanish conquistadores may have found an oasis there during their exploration of the otherwise arid region. And in the nineteenth century, cattle, sheep, and goat ranchers felt the pull of its sweet water and the rich grass on its banks.The author's grandfather, Charles Chandler, settled the area of the mouth of Independence Creek in 1900 and ranched it for many years. But her father, Joe Chandler, saw more potential for the green valley than ranchland. Over the years he built there one of the most popular recreation areas in southwest Texas. First a guest ranch for hunting and fishing, it later included a nine-hole golf course. For about forty years it was the only such entertainment spot on the Pecos River in Texas.Because of its unique ecological situation, the ranch was named a potential natural landmark by James F. Scudday of Sul Ross State University in 1977, and in 1991 the Nature Conservancy of Texas obtained a conservation easement on seven hundred acres of the ranch, the first such arrangement in the state.Charlena Chandler goes beyond the history of the ranch to tell a more personal story of the experiences of her grandparents and parents and of her growing up on the ranch. She tells of the good times, such as sleeping on her grandfather's porch under starry night skies, successful golf tournaments, and happy family events, and the bad: Depression days, family strife, and the time the creek flooded, destroying the camp. Her book is a realistic, human-events account of the generations that came to realize there was no other place on earth like the place they lived.

Palace asks public to watch Sona-A A +A
Saturday, July 26, 2014
MALACANANG urged on Saturday the public to watch and take part as President Benigno Aquino III delivers his fifth State of the Nation Address (Sona) on Monday.
"We invite everyone to watch the Sona and take part in the national discussion on the state of our country, as we reflect on future endeavors and the gains we have collectively achieved these past four years," deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said over dzRB Radyo ng Bayan.
She also said that as the Palace prepares for the Sona, it also wants to invite the public to view its special Official Gazette page for the 2014 Sona at http://www.gov.ph/sona-2014.
"It contains links to the transcripts of all previous Sonas, as well as to our Sona history page, which features enlightening trivia on past presidents," she said.
The Sona will also be streamed live on the website on Monday, after which the Palace will upload the transcript and the corresponding technical reports, said Valte.
The Palace official, however, could not give yet the possible theme and other details of the President's Sona, such as its length.
The President is still doing his preparations for the Sona together with his speechwriters, the Presidential Management Staff, the Office of the Cabinet Secretary, and Office of the Executive Secretary, Valte said.(SDR/Sunnex)

Chicago has been under a musical microscope lately, being heavily criticized for what's known as drill music. With its lyrics about guns, gangs and drugs, some view it as nothing more than rap music that provokes drugs and murder.
If drill music is what is defining the Chicago hip-hop scene right now then Clark Airlines is the anti-Chicago rapper. More focused on being a rapping Evel Knievel than shooting up his enemies in a gun fight, his sound is vibrant and breathes life into a culture that is dying from nursery school beats and childlike one-liners.
Refusing to fall in line and compromise his artistry, Clark Airlines records his music in the studio he built with his late father and proves that the Chicago hip-hop scene is still as diverse as the city.
When did you first begin rapping?
I started low-key when I was like 4, but I've been rapping seriously since like '07. I started off making beats—that's what people don't know. Then I was like, I'm about to try and rap on these joints, and I started kicking some funky flows, and I liked how it sounded.
It definitely was like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." It started off like opposite toposite—I was just making up words. It got serious when I linked up with my Nigerian buddy Goozy. That's when I knew I could do this. He brought this different sound to rap. Goozy is like a Nigerian Nate Dogg. This year, when I dropped my first tape, Between The Lines, March 25, Fake Shore [Drive] picked it up, and from there everybody has been somewhat grabbing everything I've been putting out.
You started rapping on '07, but it took you until 2012 to put out your first mixtape. Why is that?
I was more so doing the group thing. I'm more solo now. That's what took me so long. We was rapping—me, Goozy, Dell—then we started adding people, but you know, it didn't work out as well as I'd planned, so I ended up doing the solo thing. I'm pretty much still rocking with Goozy though.
What was the name of the band?
The Come Up. TCU started off because I shot a movie when I was younger, when I was like 12. It was a porn. [Laughs] Naw, it wasn't porn. It was just a regular movie. Remember the 50 Cent movie Get Rich Or Die Tryin'? That's where I got my idea from. I was going to base my life off of his movie, and I've been sticking with that name [TCU] ever since. I was in high school, not 12. My bad. I was like 14 or 15. Man, and around that time Eminem inspired my rap career. After watching 8 Mile I got real motivated.
In the "Sippin' While Whippin'" video you are out on top of a car while driving down Chicago's Lake Shore Drive expressway. Lake Shore Drive is nothing to play with. What provokes you to do some of these daring stunts?
People have ADD nowadays, so I didn't want to put a video out with me just like rapping with my shirt off with a whole bunch of dudes in the kitchen cooking chicken. So I was like, man, let me do something that's going to make them say, "I need to watch the rest of this video because cuz is on top of a car." And if you watch the end I jump over three cars. I got like springs in my legs. It's crazy, man. That's why this name is Clark Airlines. I just be flying.
Have you ever endured any injuries from the stunts?
Yeah, that jumping over the cars—that really hurt. I dented the roof of the car and everything. It was Goozy's car. He let me borrow it, he was asleep, so he really didn't know. If you look closely, he's in one of the cars I jumped over. He's asleep so he didn't even pay attention. I fixed the roof right before he woke up.
You have a song called "My Ex Sallie Mae." Who is that?
I broke up with her because I couldn't pay her back. She's not too happy with me at all. We just got off the phone with each other. She still calls me. I got two years in at the Art Institute Of Chicago studying media arts and animation. The whole Pixar, 3-D animation thing is what I was going for, but I started getting into music and film around that time. I tried to change my major actually, and they were like "No, you have to start over." I wasn't started over, bring them credits over. They wouldn't do it, so…
There is this emergence of rappers that produce, such as Big K.R.I.T and J. Cole, then there are producers that rap, such as Hit Boy. How did you decide which one you would put in the forefront?
When I was doing the beats—and no one would ever hear my beats unless you break into my computer. When I was doing the beats I was like, "This shit is hard." I was down in the studio for like three days making one beat. It takes up too much time, so I'm like, "Which one can I get done quicker?" And it was rapping. And [producing] is not something I love doing. If you love it you're going to figure it out and do it. A lot of people think I still do beats, but I stopped. I just know how to pick a good beat.
What is the music scene like in Chicago?
It's rough. The drill music is taking over right now. It's Chief Keef type of music. They call it drill music. It's cool. It has its ups and downs. I feel like with drill music, you got people that don't do drill music doing it. Don't do something that ain't you. I like to innovate, so when everybody is doing this I'm like, "What is everybody not doing?" I call it high life music. It actually comes from Nigeria. It's called high life music over there, but I infused it with rap and hip-hop, so I call it hip-hop high life music.
Chicago gets a bad rap (no pun intended) for its artists not supporting one another. Have you experienced that?
Yeah, I started off working with a lot of people that are somewhat buzzing right now, and now they are giving me this cold shoulder. I've never been that type of person. I'm always trying to unify everything, but I was told I need to be more selfish, and now I see why especially out here. You gotta just do you. You can't work with everybody because everybody ain't for you—they are all for themselves.
They hit me with jam a couple times, and I was like, "What?" I don't lash out like I could. And don't get me wrong: A lot of these cats I'm 40-billion-times better than, and they still hit me with the move about not being able to do features or on some concert shit. But with every downfall there is always a greater blessing.

Austin and San Antonio, Texas were the two cities lucky enough to experience Clearwire and Sprint's unveiling of their WiMax technology today. The WiMax is a 4G network that will ultimately serve to optimize the efficiency and mobility of service for their customers. Essentially, the WiMax system is like an upgrade but for wifi—bridging the ever-shrinking gap between …as it helps to make every handheld wireless devices to become every bit as efficient and capable as large modems, hard drives, engines and hardware.
This also serves as a potentially lucrative business incentive for Sprint and Clearwire, as the prospect for faster and more efficient service is made readily available for their clients upon the purchase of 4G equip devices such as modems, laptops and other various 4G embedded processor devices.
At present, Sprint's nationwide communications consists mainly of 3G networking. They currently enjoy the title of being the nation's largest 3G network and they are looking to expand that into 4G territory. Together with Clearwire, they have already introduced widespread 4G coverage to the public in Charlotte, Raleigh, Winston Salem and Greensboro and by the end of the year plan to have made it available in more than a dozen cities nationwide.
As of now, it is not clear exactly why Sprint and Clearwire have chosen the select cities, nor do we know the specifics of the proposed 4G devise that they have on the horizon. One can only guess, however, that they have chosen Second tier cities, surrounded by relatively rural or sparsely-populated areas in order to ascertain and to more closely examine to what extent exactly, the new and improved technology will have on society as a whole. What is certain is that such a move can only help Sprint to further secure its position as a nation's leading service provider, as today we see once again, another innovative thrust towards an increasingly informational-driven society.

More than a year ago Senator Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) introduced legislation to impose a tax on high-speed trading, and his bill has languished in the Senate ever since. On Thursday he had a chance to breathe some life into the measure in an interview at MarketWatch.com, an interview in which he offered the same platitudes from a year ago. High-frequency trading, he said, generates no benefit to the economy and therefore could be taxed with little negative impact. Such a tax could raise an estimated $350 billion over the next 10 years, he added:
I really don't see any evidence that these high-speed traders add anything to the economy, but they do also create some aberrations in the market that have led to some disturbances.
On the one hand, my transaction tax doesn't put them out of business but certainly they would have to pay 3 cents on every $100 in transactions they do. That's really not very burdensome.
But also we need revenue. We have to get out of this deficit hole we're in and this transaction tax is estimated to raise about $352 billion over ten years. That's pretty substantial. And I don't think it will do anything at all to hurt trading, what I call "real trading."
This is a rehash of statements he made on his website back in November 2009 when he, along with Representative Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.), introduced his bill. He explained then that the tax would be so small as to be essentially unnoticed in the grand scheme of things, that Wall Street could certainly afford it, and it might slow down that silly and useless high-speed trading that he equates with "unnecessary speculation."

Wendy Davis Wants Double-Barreled Assault on Texans' Gun Rights
September 11, 2013 - 7:08 am
Jay Root at the Texas Tribune highlights an initiative that Davis undertook when she was on the Fort Worth City Council. Fort Worth, as in Cowtown, the home of the Stockyards and the city "where the west begins." Davis tried, unsuccessfully, to impose new regulations at gun shows held in city-owned venues back in 2000. She also tried to force individuals who sell firearms at gun shows to perform background checks on their buyers.
We're not talking about licensed gun dealers who make their living selling firearms, who are already required to perform background checks on gun purchasers. We're talking about the individual who wants to sell a gun to another individual. The former is uncontroversial; the latter puts the federal government into private citizens' business and opens up the possibility of a national gun registry being created. Davis attacked the so-called "gun show loophole," which has been a favorite boogeyman of the gun-grabbing left for decades.
She failed. But Root reports that if she was elected governor, she would sign such restrictions into law, in Texas.
In a recent interview, Davis didn't back down from her position on gun shows, though she acknowledged it's not a politically popular one. She said that if she were governor, she would leave the issue to the will of the Legislature but would happily sign gun show regulations into law.
"I haven't pursued it as a senator because I know it's like spitting in the wind," she said. "But I still believe it's the right thing. And if I were governor and a bill came to my desk that provided for background checks at gun shows, I would sign that."
The second part of Davis' anti-gun effort was to kick gun shows off city-owned property, according to a July 19, 200o story that appeared in the Dallas Morning News. That would turn city-owned convention centers into tools of politics, which they were never intended to be. Given that the Second Amendment is written right into the Constitution, it would also have put Fort Worth in the position of militating against its own citizens' civil rights. Davis would do the same across the whole state. Of Texas.
The city of Austin tried a similar move this year, and not only failed, it earned the very public ire of Attorney General Greg Abbott. He promised Austin it would face a "double-barreled lawsuit" if it proceeded. The bluest city in Texas quickly backed down.
Wendy Davis could be sitting on three strikes before she even really comes up to bat in the governor's race. She will attempt to mitigate the damage by pointing out that she owns a gun and that she voted for a law that allows students to carry guns in their vehicles on college campuses. Owning a gun is nearly mandatory in Texas, and that single vote regarding guns on campuses probably won't carry as much weight as Davis' longstanding double-barreled assault on gun shows. It wasn't as though Davis was taking a brave stand on that campus bill: It passed the Texas Senate 27-4.
Attorney General Abbott is now the front-runner in the GOP primary in the Texas governor's race. Should Davis win the Democratic primary, she is likely to face Abbott in the general election. It's safe to say that Davis' record of trying to kick gun shows off city property, and mandating background checks for every single gun purchase in the entire state of Texas, will come up. Often.
Democrats will probably respond with some variation on "Well, this just makes me like her more!"
That goes a long way to explaining why Democrats don't win anything in Texas.

Submitted to: Great Lakes Regional American Chemical Society Symposium
Publication Type: Abstract Only
Publication Acceptance Date: June 2, 2003
Publication Date: June 2, 2003
Citation: Kenar, J.A. 2003. Synthesis of some organic carbonates derived from fatty acid ester polyols and also long-chain alcohols [Abstract]. Great Lakes Regional American Chemical Society Symposium. p.114. Technical Abstract: Oleochemical derivatives from vegetable oils represent renewable raw materials that are firmly established components in many industrial products. Their use is of continued interest to many researchers and the development of novel oleochemicals with unique chemical and physical properties is integral to extend the uses obtainable from these materials. This work examines the synthesis of organic carbonates starting from oleate and linoleate esters. Epoxidation of the unsaturated sites in these oleate and linoleate esters, hydrolysis to the corresponding polyol, followed by dialkyl carbonate interchange reaction gave the desired carbonate compounds. Preparation of these carbonates from the starting epoxide ring was also examined. The dialkyl carbonate interchange reaction between diethyl carbonate and several long-chain and Guerbet alcohols to synthesize their corresponding dialkyl carbonates will also be presented.

Drew Brees Has One Commercial That's Better Than Peyton Manning's
But wait, there is another quarterback in the Super Bowl, Drew Brees, and he has at least one commercial that ranks right up there with the funniest stuff either Manning has done. It was a 'This is SportsCenter' promotion for ESPN.
Do you remember it? There's a long line of traffic at the gates in Bristol to get into the ESPN studios, only something is in the way. Something really, really big. Here, take a look:
Yes, that's Drew Brees driving the Mardi Gras float. Very, very New Orleans and very, very clever. His reaction is priceless, made even more amusing because haven't we all been there and done that, albeit not driving a carnival display. You're in an impossible situation and there's not much you can do about it but react like Drew does, "Just back up."
For Drew's sake, hopefully he won't be having to say that to Colt pass rushers if they get some pressure on him Sunday night in the big game.

Ben Rothwell pulled off the world's first shuffle-to-KO dance at UFC 164
At UFC 164, Ben Rothwell managed to save all of his energy meter in order to pull off the controller combination for his special move, and land it. That's a rare thing to see in MMA, almost unheard of actually. We dig his pre-special move feet movement also. The only thing that was missing was a ridiculous wave of pulsating colors emanating from his body and some cheesy Japanese dude yelling 'That was great!' at the end of it.
Check out how Rothwell finished off Brandon Vera at UFC 164 and props to Zprophet for the gif.

Linebackers Coach Mike Smith to Head to Texas Tech
There could be a lot of coaching changes on the Jets in the coming weeks and it looks like one coach already has a new job outside the NFL.
The Daily News has learned that outside linebackers coach Mike Smith will leave Gang Green after the season to accept a position at his alma mater, Texas Tech.
Smith served as a coaching intern for two seasons before accepting a full-time position earlier this year. Smith will be a co-defensive coordinator on new head coach Kliff Kingsbury's staff, according to sources.
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.comChanges are bound to happen every year, but it's hard to say exactly what changes will transpire with the coaching staff this offseason, but there's a lot of pieces in play. Mike Pettine might not be back, Mike Westhoff is scheduled to retire, there's a lot of questions in the press about Sparano's viability beyond this season … could the Jets have to do a coaching overhaul under Ryan in just a few weeks? We'll find out soon enough …

AMD Cancels 960T Retail Release
"Overclockers' hopes of a cheaper, unlockable quad-to-hex core appear to be dashed."
Published: 13th May 2010 | Source: eTeknix |
Soon after it was announced in April, reports came in that the core-locked Thuban quad 960T could have its disabled cores enabled and still be overclocked to some solid speeds. Thus, overclockers grew hopeful of a cheaper, overclockable hex-core, much like how the Athlon X2 555 was as a quad. Unfortunately, it seems their hopes have just been dashed.
According to eTeknix, AMD has let it be known that the Phenom II X4 960T will not make it to retail channels. Instead, it will likely only be provided to OEMs that, of course, make use of motherboards that do not have such extended features.
"I've been asked the question about whether there will be a Phenom II X4 960T "Thuban" quad-core by enough individuals, that I think it is a good idea to proactively share the answer to everyone," says an e-mail sent out by AMD. "While there are indeed engineering CPU samples floating around of a 4-core Thuban 960T, I do not expect that processor will be released for general availability. Perhaps it may make its way to OEMs by special request, but that remains to be seen."
The reasoning behind this move appears to be the "bad publicity" AMD received when not all of the X3 tri-cores were able to unlock, despite their your-mileage-may-vary warnings.
This is certainly a blow to more budget-minded clockers. One can only hope they change their minds later and decide to release a similar part to the masses.

Under-fire Mohammed Polo angrily quits Hearts, but board chairman rejects
By Patrick Akoto
Under-fire Hearts coach Mohammed Polo has reportedly resigned from the club, moment after seeing his side battered 3-0 at home by All Stars, GHANAsocernet.com can reveal.
The beleaguered trainer is reported to have informed Board chairman Togbe Afede about his decision to exit the club due to incessant pressure but he rejected instantly, GHANAsoccernet.com understands.
The former Ghana international feels he's being sabotaged from transforming the side and hence wants to jump the ship before he is pushed out.
Polo admitted on national television that the club was in crisis but remained adamant about resigning from the club.
He claimed he has received numerous death threat on his phone from angry Hearts fans who have been unimpressed with his performance since he took over from dismissed David Duncan.
The iconic Hearts figure will make his decision official to Board chairman Togbe Afede despite the initial rejection of his verbal resignation.
Hearts have endured a topsy turvy campaign in the Ghanaian top-flight and Wednesday's heavy defeat to All Stars has seems to have broken the camels' back.
Officials have remained tight-lipped on the issue as they try to talk him out of calling it quit.

Some of that evidence unfolded when Zimmerman's defense attorney asked 19-year-old Jeantel to read a letter that she allegedly had written to Trayvon Martin's mother. She responded that she doesn't read cursive, and that's in addition to her poor grammar, syntax and communication skills.
Jeantel is a senior at Miami Norland Senior High School. How in the world did she manage to become a 12th-grader without being able to read cursive writing? That's a skill one would expect from a fourth-grader. Jeantel is by no means an exception at her school. Here are a few achievement scores from her school: Thirty-nine percent of the students score basic for reading, and 38 percent score below basic. In math, 37 percent score basic, and 50 percent score below basic. Below basic is the score when a student is unable to demonstrate even partial mastery of knowledge and skills fundamental for proficient work at his grade level. Basic indicates only partial mastery.
Few Americans, particularly black Americans, have any idea of the true magnitude of the black education tragedy. The education establishment might claim that it's not their fault. They're not responsible for the devastation caused by female-headed families, drugs, violence and the culture of dependency. But they are totally responsible for committing gross educational fraud. It's educators who graduated Jeantel from elementary and middle school and continued to pass her along in high school. It's educators who will, in June 2014, confer upon her a high-school diploma.
It's not just Florida's schools. According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress, nationally most black 12th-graders test either basic or below basic in reading, writing, math and science. Drs. Abigail and Stephan Thernstrom wrote in their 2004 book, No Excuses: Closing the Racial Gap in Learning, "Blacks nearing the end of their high school education perform a little worse than white eighth-graders in both reading and U.S. history, and a lot worse in math and geography." Little has changed since the book's publication.

Justin Bieber was rushed to a hospital after collapsing during a concert at the 02 Arena in London on Thursday.
A source close to Justin told TMZ the 19-year-old felt woozy during the show. With four songs to go, he stumbled backstage where he collapsed. Justin was reportedly pulled into a private room where he was treated with oxygen from emergency personnel.
Justin was advised to go the hospital but declined, insisting that he "had to finish the show for his fans."
After the incident, Bieber's rep Scooter Braun came out and told the crowd Justin was "very low of breath."
Justin was transported to the hospital right after he completed his concert.
Sources tell TMZ he is feeling okay but doctors are still evaluating his condition.

I opted for the Hercules stand rather than a less expensive one based on another review. Good decision. I play alto sax and flute. My sax is nice quality, but the flute is expensive. The stand holds the instruments securely. The stand folds up easily and comes with a carrying case, which is handy for gigs.

Britons back baby limit
Posted By admin On November 23, 2009 @ 10:25 pm In Old Infowars Posts Style,World News | Comments Disabled
Made for Mums
November 23, 2009
Almost a third of Britons would support a law capping the number of children per family, according to a survey by the London newspaper Metro.
Limiting parents to having just one or two children was necessary to combat over-population, according to 29% of those surveyed.
Less than half said they would oppose such a law, similar to those imposed on Chinese families who restrict parents to one child per family.
The British population is currently 61 million and is set to exceed 70 million by 2029. However, none of the main political parties has ever suggested limiting the number of children families can have.

Friend of InhouseBlog Todd Mayover of IP Counsel Blog fame has an interesting post on cease and desist letters. While the post focuses on the patent arena, it has a few tips that apply to cease and desist letters in general. One key issue is how to draft a cease and desist letter "that provides actual notice of possible infringement without triggering
the actual controversy doctrine, thereby providing the recipient of the
letter with declaratory judgment jurisdiction." Todd points to an article in Intellectual Property Today by Matt Thane, who provides helpful guidance:
"(1) Never directly accuse or explicitly threaten;
-Use language to express concern regarding possible infringement like "may infringe".
(2) Avoid litigation language;
-Do not use language making reference to possible damages, liability or juries.
(3) Offer a license; and
(4) Consider other actions taken by your client in the past."
