I ordered my set after reading many reviews...some good, some not so good. After much searching for canisters I kept coming back to this set as what would look the best in my recently renovated kitchen. Functional: Many folks complained about how hard the canister lids are to remove from their base...I have the opposite problem with the smallest, though the larger two are tight enough without presenting a challenge to open. My biggest wish is that the canisters had some sort of rubber seal, O-ring, or something similar to help keep air and the occasional pesky ant away from any stored product. Visual: They truly are a decorative set of caniters to have, if one wants something that looks old world but not rustic and one can get past paying, on average, about 40% or more than what I would consider an average price for nice canisters. Overall: If you like the look of the canisters in the photo and you aren't scared off by the price...and you have some arm strength for the possibility of tight lids, then you will not regret the purchase.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The items look like what is displayed on the website
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good...not great.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Accurate enough.
I saw poor reviews for this set on other sites but most of the reviews on Overstock were very positive so I decided to go ahead and order it. One of the screws for attaching the knobs to the lid was not the right size, which was a comment I saw in multiple reviews so I don't think this is a rare exception. The largest lid had a slight scratch in it, and the fit on the canister was absurdly tight. I really had to fight with it to get it off, and could easily see if I had had flour in it that the flour would have won. This one I felt was definitely not worth the money. I'm disappointed to have to send it back, but over the long haul I know I would not be satisfied.
Great quality, nice finish and appearance. The size is terrific, larger then most canister sets, able to accomodate whole bags of flour and/or sugar. These canisters have a nice weight to them, they are not thin or cheap in appearance. Wonderful value, you won't be disappointed.
These canisters are just beautiful. They look lovely with my stainless appliances and black granite counter tops. All who see them make comments on their beauty. I only had a problem getting one lid handle screwed on. It's loose but doesn't take away from the look of the canisters. Very elegant looking!
I was looking for a set of canisters to go with my newly remodeled kitchen. I wanted something decorative, yet practical. After looking and looking for several weeks, I stumbled across this set. They arrived in a timely manner and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box -- they were larger than I was expecting. But they are the perfect size! The lids do not have a rubber seal, but they do fit tightly onto the canisters. The pewter finish is a beautiful match to my stainless steel appliances and the canisters look gorgeous sitting on my new granite countertops. Another great purchase from Overstock.com!
I love the look of these but there are a few complaints: 1. My cannisters arrived with a ding on the side of the large cannister 2. the knob on one cannister gets loose easily and has to be tightened often 3. the knob on one cannister is not centered (the hole is a little off) I should send them back for another set, but don't want to bother with the hassle of returns. Also, another thing to note is there is not an airtight seal on these so if you really want to store flour or other perishables these may not be for you. The big cannister is great for storing granola bars and crackers and all in all these make a great statement sitting on the counter, very sturdy, and don't show fingerprints!
I ordered this cannister set because of the previous reviews...I wanted something different, and something that would go with both rubbed bronze and stainless...this fit the bill. They really are lovely, and very well made. I did have a problem with one of the cannisters, and I must say that customer service went well beyond the norm to replace it...I couldn't be happier with both the product and Overstock.com
I was glad to find this canister set as I had been looking for something with a brushed nickel look to compliment the knobs on my kitchen cabinets. These are perfect and unusual! I had been looking for quite some time, and found several that were a porcelain type with ironwork base, but I continued to be concerned about breakage with those. These are just perfect and look like durability won't be an issue. I haven't had them that long, but so far, they're great!
So happy that I ordered these beautiful pewter canisters. I was a bit worried after reading some other reviews about the removable rubber seals not sealing properly. The lids are hard to remove, but I'm fine with that as I was more concerned with them sealing tightly, which they do, thankfully. The canisters look very nice sitting on my kitchen counter and blend well with my contemporary style. They are great quality and worth the price.
Beautiful pewter caniter set!! If you have stainless steel appliances this is a must to purchase!! Looks amazing on the counter in my kitchen with all my stainless steel appliances. Can't wait to show them off at Christmas!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Matched perfectly
happy to NOT have a "run of the mill" canister set. This will be the perfect accent to the rest of the stainless in the new kitchen....not too contemporary, not too country...just the right combination of the two.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? excellent, becasue I have been shopping for items/accressories for my new kitchen and I have a sense of what finishes/colors are suppose to look like and this one is dead on.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. i feel that the quality is excellent, but I can se where other buyers may have some issues with difficulty removing the canister top. A few "Drop kicks" by the UPS driver might tend to put it "out of round" but I have a perfect set and am very pleased.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? spot on/as expected
I am very satisfied with the canisters. I would recommend them to anyone looking for canisters in this style.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Canisters are well made and look good.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very
Very nice canister set, looks wonderful with our new stainless appliances and cherry cabinets. Quite large, lids fit well. Embossing is pretty. Not so traditional that it won't work in a more modern kitchen too.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Beatiful, perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Large and heavy
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? perfect
I liked the product very much, except for one thing. My middle size canister is almost impossible to open. I must find a tool to help me pry it open. I think it is a little out of round. I am hoping that with use and time it becomes easier to use. The canisters llook and and are exactly what i wanted.
Cannisters are quite pretty. They were shipped in a timely manner. The knobs are not fixed on the lids when they come out of the box, which is no big deal but one of the lids had a stripped screw. The cannisters also do not have a rubber seal around the lid. Otherwise I would have rated these a 5 star.
I thought these were exactly what I wanted but I was disappointed in these canisters. They were thin and flimsy . The lids were difficult to remove. When attaching the knobs (which looked cheap) one of the screws stripped out the knob and made it unusable. I returned my set.
I shopped all over looking for colorful canisters and settled on these based on the good reviews when I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. As mentioned is other reviews, these canisters are very large. I would've preferred the middle size to be the largest with two smaller ones. The large size is more like a cookie jar. The lids are a very tight fit and a little difficult to open. I'm not sure my elderly mother would be able to open them. I'm sure I could exchange them but there's no guarantee the next set wouldn't be the same. It could be just the design and not a defect. The one true positive is that they look great with my stainless sink, faucet, pulls and other stainless accessories.
excellent quality and beautiful design
Others have mentioned the lids are tight as a negative -- that was what made me buy these! Yes. The lids are tight and my coffee beans and tea bags stay fresh! Plus these cannot break and look elegant. Win, win, win!
Looks great in my black and cream kitchen

Ok, so he will reward us for what we have done so here we go.
I am married for over 20 years and have two delightful children.
I have remained faithful to my wife.
I have never stolen.
I do not lie.
I do not do drugs and never have although I do partake of a drink or three
I have been at my present employment for almost 20 years.
My reward is apparently a lake of fire according to you.

I have volunteered my time, and donated money, blood and food to those in need. I have taken in chilren with no homes. I have never been arrested, or given a ticket. I work with the elderly and the mentally handicapped kids. I also have been faithful to my spouse of 25 yrs. I imagine my reward is the same.

"The reward" has nothing to do with us, and everything to do with Him. We cannot earn our way to heaven through any good deeds or sacrifice. It is only through faith that we may be saved, if we follow Christ.

The Fourth Lateran Council (1215), infallibly defined that at the second coming Jesus "will judge the living and the dead, to render to every person according to his works, both to the reprobate and to the elect. All of them will rise with their own bodies, which they now wear, so as to receive according to their deserts, whether these be good or bad [Rom. 2:611]" (constitution 1).

The Athanasian Creed
"[Jesus Christ] sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From there he shall come to judge the living and the dead; at his coming all men have to rise again with their bodies and will render an account of their own deeds; and those who have done good will go into life everlasting, but those who have done evil, into eternal fire [Rom. 2:611]. This is the Catholic faith, unless everyone believes this faithfully and firmly, he cannot be saved" (Athanasian Creed [A.D. 400]).

Few truths are more often or more clearly proclaimed in Scripture than that of the general judgment. To it the prophets of the Old Testament refer when they speak of the "Day of the Lord" (Joel 2:31; Ezekiel 13:5; Isaiah 2:12), in which the nations will be summoned to judgment. In the New Testament the second Parusia, or coming of Christ as Judge of the world, is an oft-repeated doctrine. The Saviour Himself not only foretells the event but graphically portrays its circumstances (Matthew 24:27 sqq.; 25:31 sqq.). The Apostles give a most prominent place to this doctrine in their preaching (Acts 10:42; 17:31) and writings (Romans 2:5-16; 14:10; 1 Corinthians 4:5; 2 Corinthians 5:10; 2 Timothy 4:1; 2 Thessalonians 1:5; James 5:7). Besides the name Parusia (parousia), or Advent (1 Corinthians 15:23; 2 Thessalonians 2:19), the Second Coming is also called Epiphany, epiphaneia, or Appearance (2 Thessalonians 2:8; 1 Timothy 6:14; 2 Timothy 4:1; Titus 2:13), and Apocalypse (apokalypsis), or Revelation (2 Thessalonians 2:7; 1 Peter 4:13). The time of the Second Coming is spoken of as "that Day" (2 Timothy 4:8), "the day of the Lord" (1 Thessalonians 5:2), "the day of Christ" (Philemon 1:6), "the day of the Son of Man" (Luke 17:30), "the last day" (John 6:39-40).
The belief in the general judgment has prevailed at all times and in all places within the Church. It is contained as an article of faith in all the ancient creeds: "He ascended into heaven. From thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead" (Apostles' Creed). He shall come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead" (Nicene Creed). "From thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead, at whose coming all men must rise with their bodies and are to render an account of their deeds" (Athanasian Creed). Relying on the authority of Papias, several Fathers of the first four centuries advanced the theory of a thousand years' terrestrial reign of Christ with the saints to precede the end of the World (see article on MILLENNIUM). Though this idea is interwoven with the eschatological teachings of those writers, it in no way detracted from their belief in a universal world-judgment. Patristic testimony to this dogma is clear and unanimous.
The Roman Catechism thus explains why, besides the particular judgment of each individual, a general one should also be passed on the assembled world: "The first reason is founded on the circumstances that most augment the rewards or aggravate the punishments of the dead. Those who depart this life sometimes leave behind them children who imitate the conduct of their parents, descendants, followers; and others who adhere to and advocate the example, the language, the conduct of those on whom they depend, and whose example they follow; and as the good or bad influence or example, affecting as it does the conduct of many, is to terminate only with this world; justice demands that, in order to form a proper estimate of the good or bad actions of all, a general judgment should take place.... Finally, it was important to prove, that in prosperity and adversity, which are sometimes the promiscuous lot of the good and of the bad, everything is ordered by an all-wise, all-just, and all-ruling Providence: it was therefore necessary not only that rewards and punishments should await us in the next life but that they should be awarded by a public and general judgment." - Catholic Encyclopedia

Actually, this leads to a very good question.
If one is still alive at the time of the Second Coming, does one get just get one judgment?

Jesus Christ has been given the authority to judge all the earth (Ro. 14:9-11; Philippians 2:9-11). Although his judgment is already working in our lives, there is a future, final judgment when Christ returns (25:31-46) and every-one's life is reviewed and evaluated. This will not be confined to unbelievers; Christians too will face a judgment. Their eternal destiny is secure, but Jesus will look at how they handled gifts, opportunities, and responsibilities in order to determine their heavenly rewards. At the time of judgment, God will deliver the righteous and condemn the wicked. We should not judge others' salvation; that is God's work....

Matt. 23:
39 For I say unto you, you shall not see me again, till you shall say, Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Ye shall not see me henceforth. This seems to imply that the temple shall be deserted when he leaves it. With his departure the presence of God departs. He was the Lord of the temple.
Till ye shall say. These were his last words in the temple precincts, but they do not shut out all hope. Even yet when the Jews shall join in the hosannahs of those who, on the Sunday before, had sung his praises, and cry, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord Mt. 21:9, they may be permitted to behold their Messiah. Many have seen in this passage a promise of the final conversion of Israel. Zec. 12:10 Rom. 11:26 2 Cor. 3:15 seem to favor the same view.
When Christ abandoned the temple in Jerusalem, it was only fit for the destroyer. If we should drive him out of his spiritual temple, the church, it would be left as dead as the body without the spirit.~~People's N.T.

Wealthy Cambridge University student offers £48,000 for just 16 weeks of private tuition after he failed his first year
- Student will pay the tutor £100 an hour for a 30-hour week
- Swiss student is resitting two out of his four first year exams which he failed
- The tutor is also expected to 'unwind' with the student, 20, by doing sports
- Role will include expenses-paid weekend trips to Zurich
A wealthy foreign student at Cambridge is offering a private tutor £48,000 for just 16 weeks work.
The Swiss national failed his first year and must now pass resits to carry on studying at the university.
The 20-year-old has advertised for a Cambridge graduate to coach him through his Natural Sciences exams.
He is willing to pay the right candidate £100-an-hour for the one-off fixed-term contract.
Job advert: A Swiss student at Cambridge University is looking for a biochemist to tutor him for 16 weeks as he attempts to pass his first year exam resits
Applicants must have an 'excellent degree' from Cambridge and possess 'superb' scientific knowledge. They must also be a non-smoker who leads 'a physically active lifestyle' and is 'healthy and fit'.
The live-in tutor will be required to work six hours a day, five days a week for sixteen weeks to help the undergraduate, who has ADHD and dyspraxia.
Successful candidates are also expected to socialise with the student - and help him integrate into student life.
They will be get an en-suite guest room in the student's Cambridge accomodation complete with parking space. They may also have to travel with the student on expenses-paid trips to Zurich.
The advert asks for an 'excellent tutor and at the same time an inspiring mentor' who boasts a 'sunny disposition'.
The student failed his first year at Cambridge by just 0.3 per cent and is retaking two out of four exams.
He has been told he may rejoin the course if he gets at least 50 per cent in both exams.
The advert was posted on Tutors International yesterday, but manager Victoria Gibbs said it was too soon to expect any applications.
Undergraduate: The student will pay the tutor £48,000 for 16 weeks of tuition. The timetable will include around 30 hours work each week, the advert said
It says the applicant should be: 'engaging, have a good sense of humour and a sunny disposition.
'Naturally, he or she is expected to be an excellent tutor and at the same time an inspiring mentor for the positive as well as progressive development of the student's career in Cambridge.
'The Tutor must devise and implement a full timetable which ensures a thorough understanding of all of the material in the entire syllabi of both target subjects, allows for constant revision of the material covered, and includes thorough exam preparation through regular mock tests and exam questions.
'In addition to the academic work, it would be helpful if the Tutor shared some of the student's interests.
'This is a demanding role, and it is anticipated that he (and the Tutor!) would both benefit from the opportunity to unwind through a sport such as rowing, or regular trips to the gym, cultural excursions are encouraged though by no means necessary.'
The student, who speaks six languages, is described 'polite' and 'friendly' who will prove 'a pleasure for a capable educator to work with' because of his 'natural intelligence.'
Ms Gibbs said: 'This was one of the more niche jobs we have had.'
Despite winning a place at Cambridge - ranked as third best university on the world - he requires help with time management, organisational skills, memory skills, exam techniques, reading strategies, structuring revision summaries and essay-writing, proof-reading, and managing his attention and focus.
The post is the second unusual job advert on Tutors International's website.
An Arab businessman in his 30s offered £122,000-a-year to a tutor to turn him into an English speaking, piano playing, opera loving student worthy of a place at Oxford University.
The student is a 20 year-old male who needs help preparing for two of his first year exams (NatSci Tripos 1A) in Natural Sciences: Cell Biology and Chemistry. He has recently had diagnosis of dyspraxia and ADHD confirmed, both of which have had a negative impact on his exam preparation to date.
The Tutor must be aware of these issues and help to devise strategies and techniques which will assist both with exam preparation for this year and future studies as the course progresses.
The young man is a very intelligent Swiss student who was brought up in a multi-cultural family and is fluent in six languages.
Revision role: The Cambridge University student's tutor will also be expected to 'unwind' with him by playing sport
Although he has been aware of various difficulties in his learning, his natural intelligence and excellent work ethic have so far been enough to carry him through his academic career. However, now he is at Cambridge, his coping techniques are proving unsatisfactory, and his previously minor issues have become big obstacles that are now impeding his academic progress.
The Tutor is required to work with the student for a minimum of six hours a day, five days a week for sixteen weeks from early January through spring/summer exam period.
The Tutor must devise and implement a full timetable which ensures a thorough understanding of all of the material in the entire syllabi of both target subjects, allows for constant revision of the material covered, and includes thorough exam preparation through regular mock tests and exam questions.
successful Tutor must be a recent graduate from Cambridge with an
excellent degree in the biological science stream of Natural Sciences,
or a supervisor of the two subjects.
In addition to the academic work, it would be helpful if the Tutor shared some of the student's interests. This is a demanding role, and it is anticipated that he (and the Tutor!) would both benefit from the opportunity to unwind through a sport such as rowing, or regular trips to the gym, cultural excursions are encouraged though by no means necessary.
In the spirit of building a solid and academically successful Tutor-Student relationship, it is advantageous to build a friendship along with the academic work. As an international student at a College in the far south of the city, the student doesn't feel as integrated into Cambridge life as he could be, and it would be appreciated if the Tutor could help to alleviate this added social pressure by helping him to embrace the opportunities that Cambridge affords, the student traditions and culture, and by generally helping him to experience all that the city has to offer.

Around 170 of the passengers were Dutch, the entire crew was Malaysian, there were also citizens of Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, New Zealand, Philippines, South Africa, United Kingdom and 18 whose nationality is not yet confirmed.

Sony Vaio Duo 11: The Windows 8 tablet with fold away keyboard... supposedly
Sony is to launch a Windows 8 tablet called the Sony Vaio Duo 11, according to the latest leaked images that have appeared on the internet.
The images - leaked to Pocketnow.com - show that the new laptop come tablet device will match Microsoft's own Surface offering and Samsung's teased Windows 8 tablet by coming with a foldaway keyboard.
According to the site The "Duo" stands for the two different usage types and the 11 for an 11-inch screen. The pictures also show that the Duo 11 will have a stylus for handwriting as well as being able to use your finger with the Windows 8 UI.
On closer inspection the official-looking press shots show that the device will have a foldaway rather than detachable keyboard and be aimed at the Windows 8 rather than Window RT crowd.
No further details can be gleamed from the images, although with IFA, the European electronic tradeshow, in Berlin this week, we might see more details very shortly.
Pocket-lint will be covering the show from Germany and bringing you all the latest news as it happens.
We will keep you posted.

Hello everyone!
I need additional help, please. Most of the Vatican tours I've checked online does not accept guest with disability. I got tired surfing the net so I am asking your help again.
My hubby and I have decided to do the tour on our own (with the help of a guidebook). The Vatican website - I understand provides wheelchair to visitors with physical disability and we can obtain one as long as we show a valid I.D. Anyway - we will be taking a cab from our hotel (center) to the Vatican. My only concerns are the following:
[*] How far is the taxi's drop-off, pick-up from the entrance hall?
[*] By any chance do you know any affordable tour company that caters to disabled guest?
[*] Do you know any place in Rome that has wheelchair that we can rent for a day?
Any information that you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

A taxi can drop you at the entrance to the museum.
The Vatican's own tours should have handicap accessablity.
Here's the musuem's info on wheelchairs.
Here's the Vatican tour selection. The gardens are not accessible so you would not be able to book the garden tour.
They only book about two months in advance. I'm sure you could e-mail them if you have other questions.
Report Abuse
This trip report is a few years old, but has a lot of good info about getting around Rome with a wheelchair.

You might find this trip report useful too although much of it is Spain.

Thanks kybourbon - This is very helpful information. I checked the website but right now they are only taking reservation through the month of April 2013.
I will check back again next month to reserve the tour. I also sent an email for additional info regarding wheelchair.
Thanks again. Cheers!
Report Abuse
UPDATE: Below is the response I received from the Vatican museum. Unfortunately we are unable to join the tour. I guess we will have to do it on our own with the help of an audioguide. Thanks FODORITES for your help!
"Dear Madam,
we inform you that at present it is not possible to reserve for the month of May. Tours are vailable "on line" on sale starting on 60 days before the date you require.
We furtermore inform you that tours with the Basilica are not allowed for people on a wheelchair.
Also for the tour of the Museums yo'll find problems during the visit since wheelchairs annot go through all the narrow corridors of the Museums.
Anyway, just showing up a the main entrance aour staff will lwet you in without standing in line. As sson as you enter you can ask for 2 free tickets and then my advice is to rent an audio guide and visit the Museums on your own."
For further details visit our website:
Report Abuse
I would reserve a wheelchair with them for the date you want as soon as they allow reservations. The audio guides are 7€ and I'm sure they will instruct you on which parts of the museum are accessible.
Here is a route for visiting St. Peter's in a wheelchair. The prices for renting wheelchairs (from companies in Rome) on this link will be out of date (they are several years old) so don't expect the rates listed.
St. Peter's and the Vatican Museums are separate and it's a good 15 minute walk from the entrance of the museums to St. Peter's. This link is not an official Vatican link, but has a lot of good info about St. Peter's.
This link has a video and shows how to enter. They also state they provide the only accessible tour of the Vatican (and other parts of Rome).
St Peter's has its own audio guides for rent. I don't know about wheelchairs there or if you can get the wheelchair at the museums and return to St. Peter's. Perhaps e-mail back and ask.
Another option is to hire a private guide as they will know where the access points are at each site. We've had a long thread about private guides in Italy (with reviews).

Skill Level Intermediate
In the previous movies, we've laid out a white box of our streets in a grid and started to apply textures to the streets. In this movie, we'll texture the intersections as specific objects, making them fit nicely on to the corners and pave the way to add other street elements in. As we can see in the view, I have an intersection object still in purple, surrounded by textured streets with mapping applied. I've copied and pasted the map modifier from street to street. However, I have a problem.
At the corner, where I've inserted on this intersection my white box elements for corners and ramps, along with white box elements for part of the sidewalk, I need pavement. What I'll do is transition carefully here from a white box in design to an actual model and what this means is reducing the poly count, optimizing geometry wherever possible, and also making sure that I'm closing up my game environment, that polygons hit at either surfaces or edges exactly.
For the intersection, I am going to increase the size by 8 feet in each direction, going from 63x63 feet up to 79x79 and also I'll reduce the Length and Width segments to 1 and 1. We can see the slides under my streets. So I need to reduce my streets here by 16 feet again, 8 feet for each corner on each side. Dropping down under the UVW Map modifier, changing the Length from 400 feet to 384 feet, on the small streets on the side, my short streets, I'll drop down under the UVW Map and in the Plane, change from 200 feet to 184 feet.
Now the edge lines of my streets meet cleanly at my intersection, which flows cleanly under the corners. Lastly, with the Intersection selected I'll press M for Materials and in the Material Editor, I'll assign a material for the intersection. I've created a texture as an example of an intersection with crosswalks. I'll put it in the Diffuse Materials slot, choosing a Bitmap, and picking the intersectionC for color. I'll go up to the parent and show the shaded material in the view and there is my intersection with crosswalks, with extra asphalt at the corners to accommodate round corners of various sizes and providing a cap or end for my lines on my street.
In a render, we can see cleanly that I have a street with worn intersection and crosswalk lines and even dirt right over it, ready for construction of ramps, corner ramps, driveways and other street elements. In this movie, we saw a very clear example of a transition from a white box for planning within 3ds Max, to an actual model, making very sure that we reduce polygon count wherever possible and optimize the use of textures through careful and elegant mapping, planning for closed environments that are bounded, where all the polygons meet and there aren't open edges.
In the next movie, we'll add on the sidewalks and ramps and driveways to finish out our streetscape.

Gigabyte 890GPA-UD3H (AMD 890GX) review
Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 05/19/2010 02:00 PM [ 0 comment(s) ]
Today we'll have a look at an offering from Gigabyte, namely the 890GPA-UD3H. The AMD 890GX based motherboard is positioning itself in a somewhat more niche category with great better looks, better features and better quality components. When you plant the two chips from AMD on a mainboard from Gigabyte, they'll try to do some more stuff. With a bucket load of features like integrated graphics, sub-D, DVI, HDMI and display port connectors, passive cooling, 8-channel sound, Giga Ethernet, Crossfire ready, pretty decent overclockabilty and USB 3.0.

Google's home page today celebrates the start of the 2014 Winter Olympics and also protests Russia's stance on gay rights in the form of a Doodle. Abandoning its usual primary colors, Google's logo adopts rainbow colors symbolic of gay pride.
The sports depicted in Google's Doodle are skiing, hockey, curling, bobsledding, figure skating, and snowboarding. Beneath the Doodle is a quote from the Olympic Charter, from section 4 of the "Fundamental Principles of Olympism":
"The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play."
Google then links users to a search for [Olympic Charter]. The Doodle appears on all of Google's sites, including Russia (google.ru).
Showing support to the gay community shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who has followed Google. In 2013, 2012, and 2011, Google was heavily involved with gay pride events. For LGBT-related searches during that month, Google also traditionally adds an Easter egg that decorates the search bar or search results with rainbow colors.
Not that the move comes without controversy, as comments sections on coverage of this story all over the web today is quite hateful from vocal (and usually anonymous troll) opponents of gay rights. However, Google isn't without supporters as well.
Google also took some heat on Valentine's Day 2012 by daring to feature a gay couple in their Doodle.
Russia passed an gay propaganda law, and has warned athletes, attendees, and protesters that any violations of its law will result in arrests, prison sentences, fines, or deportation.
"Google has once again proven itself to be a true corporate leader for equality," Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign, an LGBT rights organization, told Reuters. "Alongside Olympic sponsors like AT&T, Google has made a clear and unequivocal statement that Russia's anti-LGBT discrimination is indefensible. Now it's time for each and every remaining Olympic sponsor to follow their lead. The clock is ticking, and the world is watching."
