The brilliant Hesher, is full of memorable dialogues and monologues, a proof of this:
I pulled this gas tank from an old Chevy. I wanted to blow it up, so I did. What I didn't think about was all the little bits of metal that were going to fly out in every direction. I almost killed myself. I woke up in this hospital and this doctor was like, "Son..." and I said "Don't call me son, you fucking cunt." And he was like, "You blew off your nut." pause I just lost my nut, like that. I went fucking crazy. I assaulted a nurse or a doctor, I don't really remember. I got arrested. I went to juvee. All I could think about was my fucking nut, man. I'm missing a nut. What am I going to do? I had to go looking for it, right? So I busted out of juvee and I went searching. I couldn't find my nut. pause Well, there was this one night I was sitting there and I was taking a shit and I was looking at my balls and I was staring at this little piece of flabby sack where my left nut used to be. And then I saw my right nut for the first time. I was like FUCK MAN, MY NUT! Look I have one, I still have a nut. Right? It's a good nut, it works. God or the fucking devil or whoever the fuck it is you know he left me with one good nut. I still have a fucking nut and it works. And my fucking dick works too. pause Okay, you lost your wife. And you lost your mom. I lost my nut.

Hi all. I'm new to this forum.
3 weeks with my 2011 Smax 2.0 163ps Titanium Sport X. Lovely car.
Just one thing. The fuel figures say 57 mpg extra urban. - Whatever speed I do, in 6th gear I cant get the mpg anywhere close to 57. Best is around 53 (on the flat averaged over 10 miles at about 60 mph constant).
What mpg do others get?

Joseph Lim, 22, was arrested in September 2010 in connection with a statewide Internet child pornography investigation that netted 44 arrests, officials said.
He pleaded guilty to sexual abuse of children at that time.
In July, Lim was released from York County Prison and registered his address at a Gettysburg homeless shelter, according to officials.
A month later, probation officers discovered he had moved to a home in Dover and in the next month moved several times between a home, a homeless shelter in York and other unknown locations, the news release states.
Lim failed to report to his probation officer last month and could not be found in the area, officials said.
On Thursday, U.S. Marshals took over the case following an arrest warrant obtained by state police on Oct. 1.
Lim was arrested Friday in Tennessee and taken to Campbell County Jail, pending extradition to Pennsylvania.

Political support for the postal service
"What we do does make a difference and we can win," insisted CWU general secretary Billy Hayes yesterday at a packed Westminster campaign meeting aimed at halting Royal Mail privatisation and protecting the universal service.
And deputy general secretary Dave Ward vowed: "We'll give this everything we've got and we'll fight this to the end" to the standing-room-only audience of well over 200 CWU representatives from all regions of the UK and several MPs.
Recent letter delivery trials carried out by unregulated private operator TNT in west London, in addition to the Government's privatisation plans will, the union warns, plunge the UK's postal service into the most serious crisis in its 350-year history.
Statutory regulator Ofcom sets stringent operating standards for Royal Mail, which is obliged to deliver to everyone everywhere six days per week under specific quality of service criteria.
But it sets no standards for other operators, who are able to deliver wherever, whenever and to whoever they choose, allowing them to 'cherry-pick' the most profitable inner-city routes and pay far lower rates of pay to a part-time and casual workforce.
Earlier this week, the CWU launched its Protect the Post campaign, the key aims of which are:
To halt the privatisation of Royal Mail
To halt the 'race to the bottom' in jobs, terms and conditions of postal workers and service standards
And to save the universal postal service
Yesterday's event, at a House of Parliament Committee Room, focussed on maximising support for the campaign's aims by winning the widest possible political support for Early Day Motion (EDM) 818, which has been submitted by an unofficial 'coalition' of Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish Members of Parliament.
The Motion expresses "alarm" that Ofcom has "failed to register the dangers to Royal Mail's provision of the universal service obligation," adds that the regulator has "allowed the introduction of delivery competition without putting into place any safeguards" protecting the USO and that there is "no obligation on competitors to meet Royal Mail delivery standards, or even to publish details of delivery performance in a manner accessible to customers and the public.
"Ofcom is urged to "reconsider" and "ensure that Royal Mail is not subjected to unfair competition in delivery provision."
Scottish National Party (SNP) MP Mike Weir (Angus), who sponsored the EDM, told the meeting: "I represent a rural community and the public and businesses rely on the universal service, a service that no private company is ever going to offer.
"This is a very real danger outside of the major cities," he continued, adding that it was vital that the general public and his fellow Parliamentarians are made fully aware of the peril that the USO is in.
Welsh party Plaid Cymru and Northern Ireland's DUP and SDLP have co-sponsored the EDM along with the SNP, in a clear indication that the devolved nations of the UK are particularly worried about the future of postal services.
Labour's Ian Murray (Edinburgh South), who serves as Shadow Minister for Postal Affairs on leader Ed Miliband's Parliamentary front bench said that the party would back the aims of the EDM, and went on to described as "perverse" that the Government should be considering the privatisation of Royal Mail at a time when it was "once again becoming a profitable company in better shape than it has been for some time.
"We will be putting up a strong defence," he pledged.
Labour MPs Michael Connarty (Linlithgow and Falkirk East), Fiona MacTaggart (Slough), Katy Clark (North Ayrshire and Arran), Lisa Nandy (Wigan) and Kate Hoey (Vauxhall) also spoke at the event, each of them pledging support for EDM 818 and promising to urge their Parliamentary colleagues to join them.
Billy Hayes thanked the MPs for their support and said that the CWU would be urging as many MPs as possible to sign up to the EDM, right across the political spectrum.
"The new regulator is not serious about defending the USO - we are the real defenders of the USO," he argued, adding: "What we do does make a difference and we'll work with all parties to defend our industry."
And Dave Ward insisted: "If the regulator does nothing, if the Government does nothing - make no mistake, postal workers will do something."
Dave concluded his speech by saying: "We're standing up for postal workers and for decent jobs. We're standing up for this service to the public and for this industry.
"We'll fight this to the end and we'll give it everything we've got."

Same deal as M*A*S*h—it's easy to forget how damned good this show really is.

here are 15 of our favorite TV nurses from the classic M*A*S*h to Mercy, a new series premiering this week on NBC.
The numbers 88 and 14 are signifiant in neo-Nazi culture: "h" is the 8th letter of the alphabet; "hh" stands for "heil hitler."
One of the alae (h) at the time of the eruption was used as a wardrobe.

Just suppose your friend is a reincarnation of Antony without an 'h'?
Cut another stick (h) an inch through and fifteen inches long, flatten a little on one side.
the pronunciation "aitch" was in Old French (ache "name of the letter H"), and is from a presumed Late Latin *accha (cf. Italian effe, elle, emme), with the central sound approximating the value of the letter when it passed from Roman to Germanic, where it at first represented a strong, distinctly aspirated -kh- sound close to that in Scottish loch. In earlier Latin the letter was called ha.
In Romanic languages, the sound became silent in Late Latin and was omitted in Old French and Italian, but it was restored in Middle English spelling in words borrowed from French, and often later in pronunciation, too. Thus Modern English has words ultimately from Latin with missing -h- (e.g. able, from Latin habile); with a silent -h- (e.g. heir, hour); with a formerly silent -h- now often vocalized (e.g. humble, humor, herb); and even a few with an excrescent -h- fitted in confusion to words that never had one (e.g. hostage, hermit).
Relics of the formerly unvoiced -h- persist in pedantic insistence on an historical (object) and in obsolete mine host. The use in digraphs (e.g. -sh-, -th-) goes back to the ancient Greek alphabet, which used it in -ph-, -th-, -kh- until -H- took on the value of a long "e" and the digraphs acquired their own characters. The letter passed into Roman use before this evolution, and thus retained there more of its original Semitic value.

The lightest and most abundant element in the universe, normally consisting of one proton and one electron. It occurs in water in combination with oxygen, in most organic compounds, and in small amounts in the atmosphere as a gaseous mixture of its three isotopes (protium, deuterium, and tritium) in the colorless, odorless compound H2. Hydrogen atoms are relatively electropositive and form hydrogen bonds with electronegative atoms. In the Sun and other stars, the conversion of hydrogen into helium by nuclear fusion produces heat and light. Hydrogen is used to make rocket fuel, synthetic ammonia, and methanol, to hydrogenate fats and oils, and to refine petroleum. The development of physical theories of electron orbitals in hydrogen was important in the development of quantum mechanics. Atomic number 1; atomic weight 1.00794; melting point -259.14°C; boiling point -252.8°C; density at 0°C 0.08987 gram per liter; valence 1. See Periodic Table. See Note at oxygen.

H-infix marking of "Ghod" and other words spread into the 1960s counterculture via underground comix, and into early hackerdom either from the counterculture or from SF fandom (the three overlapped heavily at the time). More recently, the h infix has become an expected feature of benchmark names (Dhrystone, Rhealstone, etc.); this follows on from the original Whetstone (the name of a laboratory) but may have been influenced by the fannish/counterculture h infix.

|Stimulation of phosphatidic acid production in platelets precedes the formation of arachidonate and parallels the release of serotonin.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 375988 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Thrombin rapidly induces the formation of labeled phosphatidic acid from platelets prelabeled with [17C]arachidonate or 32PO34- and specifically decreases by 50--75% the content of phosphatidylinositol. Ionophore A23187 also stimulates phosphatidate labeling, but less effectively than thrombin. This effect on phosphatidic acid is blocked by increasing the levels of cyclic AMP by preincubation with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase inhibitors or prostacyclin. Indomethacin and eicosatetraynoic acid do not alter the production of phosphatidate, indicating independence from cyclooxygenase or lipoxygenase products. Increased turnover of [14C]- or [32P]phosphatidate occurs within 2--5 s after platelet activation by thrombin and is observed before endogenous, 14C-labeled arachidonate can be detected. The rate of phosphatidate formation parallels the induced rate of serotonin release. Release of [3H]serotonin is not affected by eicosatetraynoic acid. Phosphatidate production reflects the generation of diacylglycerol by C-type phospholipase degradation of phosphatidylinositol. Diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid may participate in the membrane modification related to the early changes in platelet shape, release reactions or aggregation which occur on stimulation.

Pictures: Balloons give a lift to Royal Victoria Park visitors
Posted: May 06, 2014|
Visitors to Bath's Victoria Park were given a unexpected treat when Bath's balloonists took off in front of delighted families.
The colourful spectacle matched the beautiful weather as several balloons took to the sky including the Disney Pixar UP.
Tourists and visitors enjoying the sun in front of Bath's Royal Crescent meant last-minute switch of launch site but people in Royal Victoria Park were not complaining.
Pilots from the Western Region Balloon Club, which is celebrating his 40th anniversary this year, joined balloonists from Bath.

FlyEye: Grasp-Sensitive Surfaces Using Optical Fiber
Raphael Wimmer (University of Munich)
This paper presents a method for prototyping grasp-sensitive surfaces using optical fibers. In this system one end of a fiber bundle is attached to an image sensor. The other ends of the individual fibers are attached to distinct points of a surface. Thus the image sensor can detect changes in light reception caused by a hand covering the surface. By emitting infrared light through the surface and measuring the amount of reflected light the system can also recognize touch and proximity. Mapping between pixels on the image sensor and fiber positions on the surface is generated by a relative calibration method. This setup allows to quickly build grasp-sensitive objects without electronics skills.

Casual and laidback, Knysna's bustling food emporium claims that it's "not exactly a restaurant, not exactly a bar, definitely not a deli... well, not exactly a deli... it's an eating place, a drinking place and definitely a meeting place". Well, it's a good place to be if you enjoy fresh seafood and fancy a bit of shopping. 34 South is also "a gift shop, a clothing emporium, a food store, a fish monger and a bakery, too. And the finest wine shop this side of the grape curtain!"
Start with a platter of freshly shucked wild coastal oysters still tasting of salt and sea. Tuck into calamari (tubes, heads and steaks) and mussels (in and out the shell) done in many ways - in vinaigrette, masala, with peri-peri or with wine and garlic. The herring comes six ways, the fish pates four and the mezze too many ways to mention.
Traditional Greek, Spanish and Portuguese themes run through an eclectic menu that highlights Mediterranean flavours - with chicken, ostrich and vegetarian options for diners averse to seafood. With tastebuds still tingling from oysters and bubbly, the mains are sure to tantalise.
Signature dishes tempt with fresh linefish brought in through the Knysna heads, east-coast sole, linefish espetada, Portuguese sardines, jambalaya and seafood paella.

This very successful Lebanese restaurant chain has branches in Dubai and Bahrain among others, and promises authentic Lebanese cuisine in a charmingly traditional setting.
Although there's no clear sign marking the restaurant's entrance on Abou El Feda Street, the fluorescent green numbers 33 hang over the entrance: to your left is Ramadan shisha place Tofaha, to your right is Abdel Wahab.
Abou Tarek was founded in the 1950's and is popular among tourists and locals alike. They serve the traditional Egyptian street food called koshary. The noodles and rice are always perfectly cooked and chunky tomato sauce and crispy onions top the dishes. A bustling atmosphere and good plain authentic food makes for a satisfying and convenient experience.
This typically Egyptian restaurant exudes an Old World atmosphere and serves dishes to complement the nostalgic feel. Try the kofta (minced meat), the kebab or the moza (sheep shank). A speciality dish is the French Fatta, roasted liver on a bed of rice and bread. Add a delicious salad or veggies as sides and you're good to go.
A thoroughly authentic restaurant serving the finest in Ethiopian cuisine. With offerings you won't find anywhere else such as ting-sour Injera flatbread, Abysinia is the place to go for a truly unique dining experience.
For a little of everything, ask for a platter and you will not be disappointed. Prices are incredibly reasonable. The drinks are equally exciting with strong, fresh coffee as well as local and Ethiopian wines.
The casual, relaxed ambience and charming service make an experience at Abysinia one to remember.

Florida Schools 2005
Best Residential Intramurals
The Housing League, which is in its second year, has had two official intramurals sports each semester. They play volleyball and flag football during the fall and soccer and basketball during the spring. This academic year, the decision was made to add one-day tournaments to the league that included kick-ball and three-on-three basketball in the fall and dodge-ball and beach volleyball in the spring. "The purpose is for students to have fun and make connections in their residence communities," says Ron Thompson, assistant residence life coordinator and committee chair for intramurals. "The underlying goal is student retention."
According to Thompson, there are anywhere between 75 to 100 residents participating in the intramurals from all four residence halls at the University Park campus. Each residence hall organizes a team, and the champion from the Housing League goes on to play against other champions from different campus leagues. The intramurals program has been a success in promoting residence-hall unity, Thompson says.
"Hopefully, once students join their respective hall teams, they're more likely to adapt to their living environment and the university," Thompson says. "Many of our resident assistants and grad staff are also involved with the teams. It's another way to interact with the residents." –RG

Best Dorms
"FSU has
many diverse residence halls in order to make the transition from high
school to college life as smooth as possible," says Erin Hamilton, Student
Government secretary for academic affairs. "Specializations allow
FSU's Department of Housing makes sure its incoming freshmen feel right at home. "Bryan Hall has resident assistants trained to deal especially with the struggles of students living away from home for the first time," Hamilton says about the freshman dorm. Students are required to take at least one general-education course within the hall each semester to promote community. Also, many student organizations offer interest meetings at the hall to attract freshman and further encourage their involvement on campus.
In addition, students in FSU's Honors Program have the option of living in Gilchrist or Landis halls, the two connected honors dorms on campus. These facilities have extra study rooms and early quiet hours to promote studying. Also, the dorms' lobbies often serve as meeting areas for the Honors Council and honors functions like ice cream socials and a yearly talent show.
For students looking to become leaders in college and beyond, Broward Hall specializes in teaching leadership through public affairs and international service. Leadership classes and seminars led by distinguished faculty promote learning outside the classroom. Also, former governors, legislators, and other leadership experts often speak at the dorm to inspire and further educate students. "Student organizations that focus on leadership such as Student Government and Habitat for Humanity hold interest meetings at the hall to get students involved in leadership roles around the school community," Hamilton says.
Furthermore, there's even a special community for music majors to call home. Cawthon Hall offers specialized classes and one-on-one meetings with distinguished faculty and lecturers to help students explore options within the field. One of the best perks of the hall is the soundproof practice rooms, many of which are equipped with pianos. "Students can practice their instruments and voice without distracting others," Hamilton says. "Those living in the hall don't need to venture out to the music school to use a practice room to rehearse for class—they enjoy that luxury in the convenience of their own hall." –CG

Best Student-Run Business
Founded by four students as a project completing their senior thesis, the Four Winds Café has been a campus hot spot for six years now. "The café started as an entrepreneurial/small business tutorial sponsored by Professor Fred Strobel," says current café manager Katie Helms. "The students, Beth Faichney, Kin Ping Koo, Heather Lazar, and Mollie Lee, created our business plan and mission statement." Students began the café, and students still run every aspect of the business. Except nowadays, it takes a staff of 13, including a manager, assistant manager, and catering manager, to keep the Four Winds under control. "The café has thrived, growing from a small weekday-only coffee shop with a small staff and a limited menu to a seven-day-a-week operation featuring a full lunch-menu and hosting numerous special events on campus," says Becca Nelson, media relations coordinator. With a menu featuring vegetarian sandwiches, tabbouleh, hummus, made-from-scratch burritos, and vegan cookies, students can get all the veggies they want, but in a laid-back, everybody-knows-your-name kind of atmosphere. The college even allows students to use money from their mandatory meal plan at the café. –SRR

Best Superstition
Lest students wander the earth spirit-less (or diploma-less), the emblem is often roped off with heavy black and gold velvet ropes, reminding passersby to watch their step. But even when the ropes aren't in place, students can be seen flailing and tip-toeing to avoid sneaker-prints on the symbol. With 42,000 students on campus, plus faculty and staff, keeping the Pegasus flip-flop-free is a commitment that borders on legendary.
"This tradition gives UCF students a sense of pride in their school and what it represents," Hollinger says. "It's wonderful to see students honor their university by never walking on the Pegasus."—SRR
Contact Hollinger at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Best Space Institute
When the National Science Foundation put out its antenna looking for proposals to start a new program called Research Experience for Teachers, the UCF engineers decided to throw their rocket in the ring and create the Central Florida Space Science Institute. "NSF's RET concept is to involve K-12 teachers in university-level research; what they learn during this experience they can take back to their classrooms," says Dr. Eric Petersen, who, with Dr. Ranganathan Kumar, organized the institute. The teachers competed for the summer spots, and 10 were chosen to participate, paired up with individual faculty members, and included on the faculty research-teams. And if doing university-level research wasn't enough to keep these teachers busy, they had three days of workshop time with NASA and a day-long tour of the inner workings of the Kennedy Space Center.
The teachers get experience with the latest equipment and a chance to improve their own laboratory skills. But it wasn't just the teachers who gained. Although the institute hoped to expose participants to a level of research that would inspire them, UCF faculty ended up with a research boost as an extra benefit. "One of the things that surprised us the most during this first year of the program was the level of effort put forth by the teacher participants to learn their respective research projects, and in most cases, well enough to make significant contributions in only 10 weeks' time," Petersen says. "We were hoping for the participants to at least get a taste of engineering research and generate ideas that they could take back to their classrooms; the research advancements were certainly welcomed by the faculty advisors."
The three-year grant funding the institute has only been in place for one year so far, but Peterson's hypothesis shows long-term benefits. "We expect the program to foster strong ties between the engineering college at UCF and other Florida schools that will last long after the current three-year NSF program," he says. One of the goals of the program is to create a database of grade-school-through-high-school modules developed with program participants that can be shared nationwide.–SRR

Nature Noir
Crystal Stilts
Amoeba Review
Crystal Stilts' third album is their deepest, darkest listen yet. It starts with the droning beauty of "Spirit In Front of Me," as the band seems to stretch and awaken. "Star Crawl" nicely features singer Brad Hargett's disaffected croon and strings, which billow warmly underneath the band's lo-fi sound. If the first two songs feel like lost cuts from the Velvet Underground's third album, "Future Folklore" mirrors that band's early hedonistic thump. But for the most part, Nature Noir finds the band settling down a bit. "Sticks and Stones" benefits from the addition of a gleaming autoharp. "Memory Room" is lovely campfire folk with a killer bassline, and "Darken the Door" brings back some of the band's rock shuffle before things get too sleepy. Unlike the first couple of Crystal Stilts releases, Nature Noir isn't the kind of album with a few towering highlights; it's smoother, yet it also takes a few listens to get under your skin. But give it time, and it becomes apparent that it's another indelible release from the band.

Toronto, ON (SportsNetwork.com) - A Sean Rodriguez fly to center brought home Wil Myers with the deciding run in the top of the 10th inning, as Tampa Bay claimed a 6-5 decision over Toronto in the rubber match of a three-game set.
Brandon Guyer doubled twice among his three hits, while Logan Forsythe, Ryan Hanigan and Kevin Kiermaier knocked in a run each for the Rays, who also benefited from solo homers by Ben Zobrist and Yunel Escobar.
Jake McGee (5-2) gave up the game-tying homer to John Mayberry Jr. in the bottom of the ninth but was credited with the win. Jeff Beliveau retired the only batter he faced in the 10th for his first save.
Chris Archer started and scattered three hits and one run, fanning nine with three walks.
Adam Lind clubbed a three-run homer and Edwin Encarnacion added a solo blast for the Blue Jays, while starter Mark Buehrle gave up four runs on nine hits over his six-frame outing.
Brandon Morrow (1-3) was charged with the lead run over his one-plus innings in relief.
Morrow departed after Myers walked and Forsythe's single moved him to third. Brett Cecil was summoned, only to walk Escobar after Forsythe swiped second. Rodriguez then posted his sacrifice fly to give his club a one-run edge.
Brandon Gomes struck out Jose Reyes and retired Jose Bautista on a pop up behind the plate before Beliveau induced a game-ending popout to second from Kevin Pillar.
"This time of year, there's really no room for error," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. "It's one of those games where not much is happening, and you come back, strike quick, and now the momentum's on your side, and everyone is upbeat and you come back and end up dropping it like that."
Tampa opened the scoring in the third inning. Rodriguez doubled, moved up on a flyout and scored on a Kiermaier grounder. Zobrist followed with his 10th homer of the season.
It was 4-0 for the Rays in the fourth. Evan Longoria singled, went to third on a Myers double and scored on a Forsythe grounder. Later in the frame, Myers came in on a base hit from Hanigan.
Encarnacion provided Toronto's first answer with a solo homer in the seventh, but Escobar countered in the eighth to restore the visitors' four-run spread and endured some heckling from the partisan crowd.
"I have no problem with the treatment by Blue Jays fans," Escobar said. "I come here and I enjoy playing. They're great fans. I have no problem with the fans, and I just want to come here and play and help our team win."
Grant Balfour nearly undid all of Archer's work as he entered in the eighth. Reyes and Bautista hit back-to-back one-out singles ahead of Lind's three-run blast which pulled the Jays within 5-4. After Encarnacion flied out, Joel Peralta fanned Dioner Navarro to end the frame.
McGee was one out away from locking down a Rays win, when Mayberry's low liner to left barely cleared the wall for his first American League home run.
Toronto claimed the season series with 11 wins in 19 games, though taking just
five of nine at Rogers Centre ... Escobar also had three hits for Tampa Bay.
Pope Francis' visit to Philadelphia in September has altered the date of the Penn-Villanova football game.
Kyle Busch won Sunday's road course race in Sonoma, California, but he still has a long way to go to become eligible for a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
NFL players have a very short shelf life to make significant amounts of money so it's tough to fault anyone who has outperformed a contract when they go knocking on the door to ask for more.
Pete Mackanin will remain interim manager of the Philadelphia Phillies for the remainder of the season, the team announced Tuesday.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have reportedly retained restricted free agent forward Kyle Singler with a five-year contract extension.
The Detroit Red Wings signed veteran forward Brad Richards a one-year contract on Wednesday.

Q6600 and overclocking.... HELP!
After reading these boards for the past couple days I started screwing around with overclocking my Q6600 last night. Before I get into anything, my system breakdown is as follows:
-Q6600 G0 w/ AS5 paste & Thermaltake Big Typhoon CPU cooler
-2-2GB (4GB total) of Geil DDR2-800 @ 2T 5-5-5-15 Value Series w/ Thermaltake Aluminum heatsinks
-Asus P5K
-EVGA 8800GTS OC 320MB w/ Thermaltake GPU cooler
-Enermax Noisetaker 600W PSU
-Win XP SP2 32bit
All of this sits in a Coolermaster COSMOS case, so all things considering, I feel cooling is adequate...
The first thing I learned with my limited overclocking experience is that my memory will not operate at a higher frequency than stock. I believe the recommended voltage is between 1.8V-2.2V for this memory, so even feeding them 2.2V I still cannot POST at anything higher than 400MHz. The stock timings are 5-5-5-15. Changing this to 5-5-5-12 works fine, and I was able to run Orthos for 20 minutes without any errors ( I'll run a longer test once I figure out what i'm doing ). But changing them to 4-4-4-12 will not allow me to POST. Again, no matter how much voltage I feed them. I guess this is due to the fact that they are value sticks? Or maybe i'm doing something wrong, or could it even be due to the amount of ram that I have? There's also the issue with a 32bit OS not supporting more than 3-4gb (in my case, 3.25gb). For the record, I don't mind leaving it at 400Mhz @ 5-5-5-12. I just think it's odd that I can't get it to OC beyond changing 15 to 12 (I apologize for not knowing the proper vocabulary when talking timings - i'm still new!). My goal is to reach a stable OC with my FSB and RAM operating 1:1.
Before I started screwing around with my memory, I adjusted most of my BIOS settings found in the 'Sticky' C2Q OC thread on this forum. Then I started to play with my CPU freq, memory freq/timings and all associated voltages. I couldn't for the life of my find a stable OC and I don't know why.
I eventually set all my settings back to default and changed only a few items that resulted in a semi-stable OC. The settings I changed are as follows:
C1E - disabled
Speedstep - disabled
(I disabled the above two so that CPU-z would reflect accurate frequencies)
CPU Multi - 8x
CPU Freq - 400Mhz
RAM Freq - 400Mhz
RAM Timings fixed to 2T 5-5-5-12
PCIe - 100Mhz
Everything else I kept to auto. Including all voltages. I don't know if this is good or bad. I understand that you always want your hardware to operate at the lowest voltage possible, and setting it to auto may provide more voltage than needed. Is this true? Is it bad to leave the voltages on auto?
With the configuration above I can run a small orthos test with no errors. This is fine, but for some reason orthos is detecting my CPU to be operating at 266Mhz with a multi of 13.5x (3.6Ghz). Not only that, but my device manager also detects 3.6, as well as Intels TAT program. The only program that seems to be detecting the correct frequencies is CPU-Z.
Why is this happening? My CPU voltage is very high too for a OC that should be only 3.2Ghz. I've been hearing stories that the G0 version of this processor can operate at stock voltage up to this speed (or close). Could this be conflicting with my memory some how? Causing them to not being able to OC at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Well Orthos is crazy when it comes to CPU freq. I would trust CPU-Z. I am pretty sure that Windows is also about as crazy. My one tip would to be manually set your chipset voltages, vcore, and memory voltage. If your value memory does not have heatspreaders on it I would be careful feeding them 2.2+ volts. If it does have heat spreaders anything beyond 2.2v should have a fan blowing on it. It looks good at 3.2 GHz so long it is stable.
Edit: Just noticed you have ram sinks on your memory. 2.2v should be fine. If you go higher then hang a fan over them.
Edit2: I would suggest testing your memory at your current settings with Memtest86. Get the bootable ISO and boot it from a CD. It can be had here: http://www.memtest86.com/download.html
You might want to use Prime for stress testing as it will test 4 cores, orthos only supports 2 (you would need to start up another instance and set affinity etc). Also use CoreTemp for your temp. monitoring program since TAT only reads 2 cores.Gigabyte P67A-UD4-B3 ....... ....... Intel i7-2600k (4.8/1.38v, water)

OCZ Solid 3 60GB SSD (SATA III) ...... Seagate Barracuda 1TB (SATA III)
Good advice from the others above. Orthos usually displays what your theoretical cpu speed would be given the FSB you are using and the maximum multiplier that your chip can use. So, if I am running at an fsb of 500 with a multi of 7 on my E6600, Orthos will display 500*9 which is 4.5GHz (obviously incorrect!).

Just as a comparison, I'm only able to get 3186 (9x354) out of my G0 6600 @ 1.275v. I try 3.2 at up to 1.4v and no go. I gots a 1mhz window. One it's rock solid, the next it is not, I always get at least 1 core dropping out.

It seems I can't get my CPU to operate stable at anything beyond 3Ghz @ 1.35V which seems high (volts) to me. Maybe cause i'm using a low multi and high FSB? I wonder if using 9x333 would allow less of a voltage than 7*428.
I was able to OC my memory to 450MHz @ 6-5-5-14 2T @ 1.8V and ran Memtest for 1 hour without any errors.
I also ran Prime95 for 6 hours, no errors, with my CPU @ 3Ghz @ 1.35V with my memory at stock freq. & timings (400Mhz & 5-5-5-15) @ 2.2V.
I also ran Prime95 for about 15 minutes with this configuration:
7x428 = 3Ghz @ 1.35V, memory @ 428Mhz @ 6-5-5-14 @ 2.2V. Does this seem like a good OC? I've been browsing this forum and noticed that not too many others go lower than 8 multi. Is there a reason for this? EDIT:Actually, running Prime95 at these settings caused XP to lock up after 1 minute. I forgot... I wonder why memtest would seem fine @ 1.8V but Prime wasn't @ 2.2V...
At this time i'm still feel like i'm at ground zero lol. I gotta go home tonight again and play around some more.
I wish I could take the damn thing into work so I can play with it all day.

haha, ok - i'll try. It's just that i'm already reaching 62C degrees at 1.35-1.375V and that was my innitial 'limit'. I guess it won't fry if I try 1.4V and check the temps.

Should I only be concerned with CPU Vcore or should I be pumping other voltages too?
If you are completely stable at 400FSB then if I were you I'd put the FSB at 400, the RAM 1:1 w/ timings you know work at 800MHz & voltage you know works at this speed. Put your multi at 9, and keep adding vCore until it boots at 3.6GHz. Don't put more than 1.55v. If it's too hot for you then back it down. I think 70s or even 80s is fine for testing purposes. You can always get a better cooler (U-120-E) later.MAIN RIG: 3570K @ 4.5GHz 1.272v H100i Extreme4-Z77 8GB-G.Skill @ 2200MHz 9-11-11-28 1.60v Fractal Design Arc

Do as jason said and see if your FSB (northbridge) is crapping out. If so then it needs more voltage. Personally I would set my multi low (5x) and my RAM as low as possible then find your max FSB. You know your max RAM so you are good there. Now that you know these two will not limit you at a given speed work the CPU up.

I will give this a shot.... thanks
How many CFM is the fan on your Typhoon?rdrash - 'I'm gonna intentionally try to kill this CPU with more volts'

Not sure of the CFM for the fans.... but the case comes with four 120mm fans... I would think they are 45-50cfm+ each....
I wasn't able to spend much time tinkering last night as my router crapped out and I had to replace and set another one up.
I was unable to boot into windows with 9x400 @ 1.4+V so I gave up for a little... then went back and changed it to 7x430 @ 1.325V 1:1 and was able to run prime for 15 minutes with no problem. At that point I shutdown and decided I was done and would run an all day Prime95 test while I was at work today (while sleeping I wanted to run memtest one more time to make sure my RAM was ok). But for some reason this morning I couldn't run Prime95 for more than 2 minutes without getting errors. *shrugs* It was 6-8 degrees warmer in the room this morning if that makes a big deal.
This is all with my FSB volt @ 1.45. Ram @ 5-5-5-15 @ 2.2V.
I set it to 9x333 @ 1.35V 1:1 w/ memory at 2.2V before leaving this morning with Prime95 running. Hopefully i'll go home to good news.... if It passes maybe I'll try lowering the voltage a little.

HAZARD, Ky. (WYMT) - Several restaurants offered veterans discounts or even a free meal on Monday.
Folks at Ponderosa Steakhouse in Hazard said they changed their plans this year to make sure veterans would know they appreciate their service. Veterans and active military were able to get a free meal and drink. Restaurant workers said they made sure to get the word out ahead of time.
"We had a lot more people turn out this year," said Assistant Manager Marsha Miller.
"We had several calls yesterday about it and different counties has come out."
They said they wanted to make sure they could serve those who served the country.
"We actually done a lot of marketing in other counties, too," said General Manager Kay Miller.
"We actually called all the other counties and done all that kind of thing too and called the V.F.W.'s."
Miller said they had made a lot of announcements online and on Facebook.
"It's really made a big difference this year," said Miller.
Free meals were also given out at the Morehead and Paintsville locations. They said hundreds of people showed up.

The Syrian resolution must be political, David Ignatius says, grounded in a realistic assessment of the difficulty in putting the pieces of the country back together.
- Filed Under
W The world still talks about Syria as if it's a single country, but some members of the Syrian opposition are beginning to discuss the reality that Syria today is effectively partitioned - complicating any negotiated solution to the conflict.
This frank approach was outlined in a recent interview with Samir al-Taqi, a Syrian physician who was once close to the regime but left the country two years ago and now runs his Orient Research Center, a Syria think tank, from Dubai.
Taqi offered some practical examples to illustrate the lasting effects of the conflict between the Alawite-led regime of ...
