Sara Bareilles is coming to a small screen near you and she's bringing puppets.
The singer will guest star on the April 11 puppet-themed episode of Community, according to TVLine.com.Though the show is keeping Bareilles' role under wraps, it has been confirmed that she will not be playing herself.
According to E!, the episode not only features the Greendale gang in puppet form, but features original music. One of the songs was even written by Maroon 5 frontman and The Voice coach Adam Levine. Seinfeld's Jason Alexander also makes a cameo in the episode as a friendly mountain man. We can only hope Sara gets a chance to duet with George Constanza.
Though this is Bareilles' first time appearing on the show, her song "Gravity" off her 2007 album, Little Voice, was the theme for a memorable fan video dedicated to will-they-won't-they couple of Jeff (Joel McHale) and Annie (Alison Brie). The video later served as inspiration for a season 2 episode of the show in which Sara's song also appears.
Bareilles is gearing up to put out the follow-up to her 2010 album, Kaleidoscope Heart, and is releasing the upcoming record's first single "Brave" on April 23.
Community airs every Thursday at 8 pm EST on NBC.

AMC has debuted grim fourth promo for the midseason premiere of The Walking Dead that not only further ratchets up the tension on the impending battle between the Prison and Woodbury but also brings to the forefront questions about Andrea's loyalties and Rick's ability to lead. OK, the latter isn't exactly new — Shane and Rick himself spent the better part of two seasons questioning his leadership — but now it appears as if the scrutiny is intensifying, with even Carl and Hershel getting in on it.
The best part, though, may be Glenn hissing, "If he wants a war, he's got one." Few things are better than a bad-ass Glenn.
The Walking Dead returns Sunday, Feb. 10 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on AMC.

This application is a Division of Ser. No. 09/764,594, filed Jan. 18, 2001, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,711,931.
The present invention is directed to equipment used in metal forming operations, and specifically to equipment that automatically positions metal extrusions or shaped sheet in a modular die system for forming an offset pattern.
Sheet metal parts in the form of extrusions and shaped sheet are often used in aircraft structures for structural assemblies. These metal component parts are relatively thin, usually about 3/16″ maximum, and most typically between about ⅛″ to about 1/16″ in thickness. The component parts may be thinner than 1/16″, the thickness being dictated by the application. These structural assemblies can be intricate internal assemblies or assemblies such as fuselage structures, wing structures, nacelles or thrust reversers. In order to properly assemble these structures, it is necessary to further form the extrusions and shaped sheet to have joints that permit proper fit-up as well as strength. These joints are formed by using a die assembly to form a joggle in the extrusion or shaped sheet.
A joggle is an offset in a flat plane consisting of at least two bends in opposite directions in which material is displaced into a new plane that is parallel to the original plane. The joggle forms a new plane from the original material that is substantially parallel to the plane of the original shaped sheet or extrusion. Joggles are formed by placing the shaped sheet metal or extrusions in a die to form the desired joint configuration. These joggles are then assembled to similar or identical joggles in mating parts that allow for proper fit-up and assembly of the mating parts. Typically, the dies are modular die systems. While the shaped sheet or extrusions may have joggles formed by cold working, that is, forming the joggle at ambient temperature, the joggles more frequently are formed by heating the workpiece to elevated temperatures by using heated dies.
Many of the sheet metal parts utilized in aircraft applications include titanium and titanium alloys as well as aluminum and aluminum based alloys such as aluminum alloy designated as 7075. Joggles are hot formed in extrusions and shaped sheet of this alloy by manually positioning the extrusion or shaped sheet in contact with a heated die in a forming press. The dies are modular and are interchangeable, the specific die system used depending upon the extrusion or shaped sheet that is supplied and the location and shape of the joggle required. The length of the extrusion or shaped sheet into which the joggle is to be formed is not restricted, although the joggle is typically formed near the end of the part. Typically, a joggle is formed within about two feet of one end of the extrusion or shaped sheet, as this is the location of fit-up with a mating part. However, the die system and forming press may be designed to form a joggle at greater distances from an end of the extrusion or shaped sheet.
The current practice for aligning an extrusion, shaped sheet or other workpiece in a forming press is for the operator to manually position the part inside of a preselected heated die. A combination square having a right angle and a scale along at least one edge is positioned against a die surface, and the workpiece is positioned adjacent to, or in contact with, the end of the scale on the combination square to allow the operator to properly align the workpiece in the forming press. This method is both inefficient and hazardous. It is hazardous as it requires the operator to perform hand alignment of the workpiece inside or adjacent to heating dies that have been heated to an elevated temperature, typically about 300� F.-370� F. for aluminum alloy 7075. The temperature will vary depending upon the alloy used, and may be higher or lower, but will always be sufficiently high for forming and capable of causing burns to a careless operator. In addition, proper alignment may entail the operator placing his/her hands within the die assemblies of the forming press, thereby exposing a careless operator to potential injury by placing hands within pinch points. In addition to the dangers with the present system, it is also inaccurate. The workpiece is aligned visually and by hand by an operator against a scale having linear gradations that are 1/32″ (0.031″) or 1/64″ (0.015″) apart, requiring the operator to estimate the correct location of the workpiece within the die. Furthermore, as the workpiece becomes longer and with a portion of the workpiece extending beyond the die, it becomes more difficult for the operator to correctly estimate the location of the portion of the workpiece into which the joggle is to be formed as the operator must attempt to align a location marker applied to the workpiece with a parting line in the die that is used to form the joggle. Not only is the system limited by the instrumentation, but also additional error easily can be introduced by failure of the operator to properly align the workpiece against the scale. Clearly, due to the inherent inaccuracies, the current system can reasonably be controlled from about 1/64″ to about 1/16″ depending upon the skill of the operator and the degree of care expended by the operator. The current system does not produce repeatable results within tolerance limits typically desired for fit-up and assembly of aircraft components. When controlled tolerances are required, additional manufacturing operations must be included.
Currently, when accuracy is required in the location of a joggle, a workpiece having an excess of material is positioned in the die assembly and the joggle is formed in the workpiece in the conventional manner. After removal of the joggled workpiece from the die assembly, the excess material is then machined from the workpiece and the workpiece is measured to determine the proper location of the joggle, and re-machined as required.
What is needed is an accurate, repeatable system to position a workpiece formed of extruded metal or shaped sheet metal in a die system for forming joggles that reduces the inaccuracies inherent in the current system in aligning the workpiece, allowing for repeatable and precise alignment of the workpiece in relation to the die system.
The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for accurately and repeatably positioning metallic parts comprised of variable length extrusions and shaped sheet metal in a modular die system that forms a joggle in the metallic parts.
The apparatus of the present invention is comprised of a standard joggle die system that is currently in use in the art. The joggle die system permits a joggle to be formed in a metallic part. These metallic parts or workpieces are extrusions or shaped sheet metal parts that require additional metal forming operations so that they can be used for specific applications.
A joggle is an offset that is placed in a workpiece, typically an extrusion. It provides a work surface that is out of the plane of the original work surface. While there is no requirement that a joggle provide a work surface that is parallel to the work surface of the original workpiece, a joggle typically does offset the surface to provide such a parallel workpiece. The joggle typically is formed near the end of the workpiece and permits the offset plane formed in the workpiece to be mated with another workpiece, thereby allowing the parts to be joined by a manner such as by riveting or bolting. The offsets are formed by application of pressure by means of a set of forming dies in a press. The forming dies can be arranged to change the depth of the offset or joggle. Rotation of portions of the dies can also change the radius of the joggle, as can the shape of the dies. Joggles can be formed in a variety of materials having different thicknesses. Joggles have been formed in materials in thicknesses of up to one inch. As the thickness of the material increases and as the tensile strength of the material increases, the pressure required to form a joggle becomes greater and the strength requirements of the dies increases. While joggles may be formed in materials such as aluminum and titanium in thicknesses of up to one inch, more typically joggles are formed in materials having thicknesses of about ⅛″ and less.
The present invention utilizes a back gage assembly in combination with the joggle die system to permit accurate placement of the joggle in the workpiece. The back gage assembly includes a movable back gage plate. The back gage plate is movable in a horizontal direction and in a vertical direction. The joggle die system includes at least a pair of movable dies that can be moved from an open position for receiving and removing the workpiece, and a closed position for retaining the workpiece. Clamps may be utilized to grasp the work piece to prevent movement of the workpiece in the dies during the joggle forming operation, or the dies solely may provide the required clamping force. The die assembly may include at least one heating element for heating the die system to a preselected temperature. Upon placing the workpiece in the die system for a preselected period of time, heat will be transferred from the dies to the workpiece to elevate the temperature of the workpiece so that the joggle operations can be a hot working operation. However, the joggle may be formed at room temperature, if required.
The back gage plate is movable in a horizontal direction from an open or stored position to a predetermined position that is related to the dies, and the back gage plate itself may be attached to a movable elongated member. This predetermined position determines the workpiece location at which the joggle will be formed. Before the workpiece is clamped between the dies, the back gage plate is moved to a predetermined position by a means that will accurately position the back gage plate in a horizontal direction and thereby accurately locate the workpiece between the dies. The vertical position of the back gage plate is adjusted by means that will position the back gage plate in a vertical direction so that it can contact at least one surface of the workpiece, but so that it is out of contact with the dies. After the workpiece is brought into contact with the back gage plate, the workpiece is firmly clamped into position and the back gage plate is moved horizontally to a stored position in which it is retracted away from the dies.
After the workpiece has been firmly clamped into position, the joggle die assembly can be activated to apply pressure to the workpiece and form a joggle in the die accurately at a preselected position of the workpiece.
An advantage of the present invention is that the back gage assembly permits accurate location of the joggle in the workpiece. The back gage assembly also permits a repeatable location of the joggle assembly in a plurality of workpieces. This accurate and repeatable positioning of the workpiece in the die assembly by the back gage assembly eliminates operator error previously associated with the positioning of the workpiece in the die assembly, thereby reducing scrap.
A further advantage of the present invention is that the back gage assembly increases productivity. In addition to the reduction of scrap due to operator error in placement of the workpiece in the die assembly, the amount of time spent in properly locating the work-piece in the die assembly is also reduced, so that the number of pieces that can be processed in a unit time can be increased.
Still another advantage of the present invention is that a machining operation utilized to precisely locate the joggle in an oversized workpiece can be eliminated. The elimination of this operation will also further increase the productivity as a time-consuming precision machining operation can be eliminated.
Yet another advantage of the present invention is that the operator no longer required to place his hands between the hot forming dies in order to accurately align the workpiece with a scale. Not only is the possibility of contact with the hot dies significantly reduced, but also the positioning of the operator's hands between potential pinch points and subsequent injury doe to machine malfunction or inadvertent activation is eliminated.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following more detailed description of the preferred embodiment, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings which illustrate, by way of example, the principles of the invention.
Whenever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the figures to refer to the same parts.
The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for accurately and repeatably positioning a metal workpiece in a joggle die assembly for formation of a joggle. The workpiece typically may be extruded metal or shaped sheet.
Joggle 9 is positioned at a predetermined distance from a first end 30 of extrusion 2. A second end 32 of extruded workpiece 2 can be at any variable distance from first end 30 of extruded workpiece 2. Joggle 9 is formed at the predetermined distance from first end 30 by a joggle die system 38 as shown schematically from an overhead position in FIG. 3. The workpiece, extrusion 2, is secured between a set of joggle dies 40, 42 as joggle dies are moved from an open position to a closed position, and joggle 9 is formed as movable portions 44, 46 of dies 40 and 42 are moved from a non-engaged position to the engaged position shown in
The precise location of joggle 9 from first end 30 is accomplished by use of the back gage assembly 50 of the present invention depicted schematically in FIG. 4. In a preferred embodiment a back gage plate 52 is assembled in relationship to a linear slide table 54. Back gage plate 52 is comprised of a rigid material that has a face 53 that has sufficient area to firmly make contact with any configuration of a workpiece that is to be assembled between joggle dies 40, which are shown in relation to back gage assembly 50 in FIG. 4. Linear slide table assembly 54 is comprised of a slide mechanism 55 and a linear slide table 56 that can be fixed and locked into position with respect to joggle dies 40, 42. Slide table 56 is assembled onto slide mechanism 55 and can translate along slide mechanism 55. The positioning of linear slide table 56 in relationship to joggle dies 40, 42 determines the positioning of back gage plate 52 which in turn determines the position of the workpiece in joggle dies 40, 42. Currently, in the best mode of practicing the invention, the front of slide table 56 is fixed in relation to the center of the joggle dies 40, 42 with a linear scale. Use of a linear scale allows the accuracy of the positioning of the slide table in relation to the center of the joggle dies to be controlled within the gradations of the linear scale. Thus, the use of a linear scale having gradations of 1/64″ (about 0.015″) allows for an accuracy of at least one half the distance between gradations, or reasonably about 0.010″. Slide table 56 is locked into position with a cam lock, not shown, upon proper positioning. The datum points for setting the relationship between slide table 56 and joggle dies 40, 42 are arbitrary, and any fixed positions may be used. However, the center of joggle dies 40, 42 is a convenient choice, as the center of joggle dies 40, 42 is typically the location wherein the joggle is formed, even though different joggle dies are used to form different joggles in workpieces of varying configuration. In a preferred embodiment, the linear scale may be replaced by a calibrated movable threaded screw that can be rotated to precisely position linear slide table 56. A calibrated movable thread can allow control of the accuracy of the positioning to within 0.001″. The location of the linear slide table 56 can be determined by a dial indicator or a digital read-out indicative of position. The method of determining the location of linear slide table 56 in relationship to the center of the dies is not critical and any well-known positioning means may be used. As further examples, a linear actuator in conjunction with a hydraulic drive may be used to position and move linear slide table 56. Alternatively, slide table 56 may be moved by means of an electric motor, and positioning of slide table 56 may be accurately accomplished by a laser. The cost of the equipment required to achieve the accuracy increases with increasing accuracy, an accuracy of 0.0001″ can be achieved with laser devices or ultrasonic measuring equipment if the application justifies the expenditure for such sophisticated equipment. The accuracy and repeatability required for the vast majority of applications can be achieved with the use of a linear scale or a calibrated adjustable screw drive positioning device, as the accuracy of the placement of the joggle using the back gage assembly as a positioning system is dictated by the tolerances used in manufacturing the die assemblies, and not by the back gage assembly. Thus, high cost/high accuracy measuring devices for the positioning system currently would not improve accuracy of the system because of the other limitations. Accurately positioning of the joggle from 0.001″-0.010″ using the back gage assembly system, and to about 0.005″ provides a significant improvement as compared methods used prior to use of the back gage assembly system. As noted, the means for moving and accurately positioning linear slide table 56 may be accomplished by any known techniques, the above exemplary techniques being illustrative. Although not part of the present invention, the radii formed in the metal, the amount of metal deformation and the location of the joggle can be varied by changing joggle dies. Furthermore, a change in workpiece configuration can also require a change in the joggle dies.
Referring again to
Angle bracket assembly 58, in addition to providing a support surface for hydraulic cylinder assembly 70, also provides means for vertically adjusting the height of the back gage assembly. In the embodiment shown in
In operation, the required joggle die assembly is assembled into a press. The vertical height of back gage plate 52 within back gage assembly 50 is adjusted so that it will contact a workpiece, but not contact joggle dies 40, 42. The horizontal position of the back gage plate 52 is determined by adjusting linear slide table 56 of back gage assembly 50 in relation to the center of joggle dies 40, 42 and locking linear slide table 56 into position. Then, workpiece 2 is placed into joggle die assembly 38 and against face 53 of back gage plate 52 of back gage assembly 50 as shown in FIG. 5. If necessary, additional adjustments are made to the vertical height of back gage plate 52. Workpiece 2 is next clamped into die assembly 38 by clamping means (not shown) in preparation of the joggle die forming operation. As workpiece 2 is clamped in the joggle die assembly, back gage assembly 50 preferably automatically moves into its extended position in contact with workpiece 2 shown in
While automatic cycling is preferred, a manually activated command from an operator to retract back gage assembly 50 will also accomplish the step of moving assembly 50 from the working area of the press (not shown) away from die assembly 38. Back gage assembly 50 is shown in retracted or stored position in

Your Song Lyrics
Artist: Brian McKnight
Album: Gemini
Whenever we're alone
i get beside myself
i can't wait til u get home
its u and no one else
wen i look into ur eyes i see
this is more than just a dream
and evryday it grows
and i know
to be this is what's meant
the way i feel for u
theres no reason to pretend
Just sorry it took so long
well baby, here's your song
I live for your laughter
Your happiness is all im after
Evrytime u go away
u take a little peice of me with u
I long to see the sunlight on your face
and u know

when it feels this right it cant be wrong
Just sorry it took so long
Well baby, here's your song
it might be hard for you to sing along
well baby, here's your song

Product Description
Product Description
More than 75 years after its initial release, The Birth of a Nation remains one of the most controversial films ever made and a landmark achievement in film history that continues to fascinate and enrage audiences. It is the epic story of two families, one northern and one southern, during and after the Civil War. D. W. Griffith's masterful direction combines brilliant battle scenes and tender romance with a vicious portrayal of African-Americans. It was the greatest feature-length blockbuster yet to be produced in the United States and the first to be shown in the White House. After seeing it, President Woodrow Wilson remarked it was "like writing history with lightning!"
A pivotal moment in film history. After The Birth of a Nation, nothing was the same: not the way audiences watched movies, not the way filmmakers created them. D.W. Griffith's jumbo-size saga of the Civil War expanded the boundaries of storytelling on the screen, conveying a richer, more complicated (and certainly longer) tale than anyone had seen in a movie before. The delicate relationships, the sad passage of time, the spectacular battle scenes all look as fresh and innovative today as they did in 1915. So do Griffith's brilliant actors, most of them--including favorite leading lady Lillian Gish--drawn from his regular stock company. What has become increasingly problematic about The Birth of a Nation is Griffith's condescending attitude toward black slaves, and the ringing excitement surrounding the founding of the Ku Klux Klan. Griffith, whose political ideas were naive at best, seemed genuinely surprised by the criticism of his masterwork, and for his next project he turned to the humanist preaching of the massive Intolerance. Despite protests, Birth sold more tickets than any other movie, a record that stood for decades, and President Woodrow Wilson famously compared it to "history written in lightning." That judgment has lasted. --Robert Horton --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Still, if you must, this is the definitive DVD edition, a repackaging of the Image edition along with seven civil war biographs, a visual essay and a fascinating prologue. Yes, we'd all love to have a cleaner print and a scholarly commentary, but given the small market for silents, fans have learned to settle.
I shall skip the plot summary of Birth of A Nation and the controversy surrounding the movie because I am sure most people reading this are VERY familiar with it all. Instead, I'll simply say that since the price was right, I recently purchased the Alpha Video version and was VERY pleasantly surprised. The picture was sharp and clear, and there didn't appear to be much damage on the print they had used to make the movie. Clearly, someone at the studio had put his foot down to ensure that a high-quality product was produced, or perhaps they simply lucked out and found a really well-preserved copy of the film. In any event, I liked what I saw a lot. I got a hold of a copy from Kino (a studio I purchase DVDs from without a second thought)to compare the quality, and thought that the Alpha Video version was much sharper and enjoyable to watch. It is just a pity that it doesn't have all the supplementary features that comes with the Kino version.
One of the greatest actors of all time, Henry B. Walthall, portrays Ben Cameron (The Little Colonel) with both physical and romantic grace. His character is a soldier, a son, a brother, an avenger, and a lover. He plays each of these sub-roles with dignity and skill not seen much in Hollywood these days. A beautiful and delicate Lillian Gish plays Elsie Stoneman, the woman he loved without even meeting her at first. Mae Marsh is delightful and tragic as the ill-fated Flora, Ben's little sister. Other noteworthy performances given are Joseph Henabery as an uncanny and kindhearted Abraham Lincoln; Ralph Lewis as the stubborn and powerhungry Austin Stoneman; the classic beauty Miriam Cooper as Margaret Cameron; and George Siegmann as the mulatto villain Silas Lynch.
This film has romance, action, drama, and even some bits of humor as well. If you're ever in the mood for a film which touches the heart as well as the mind and body, then please search out "Birth of a Nation". You'll be so glad you did.
Unlike most of his predecessors, Griffith used in Birth a variety of camera angles and close-ups, for dramatic emphasis and moved the camera close to the action, using many separate shots with flashbacks, which for purposes of clarification of plot or characterization, introduce scenes antedating those already shown.Read more ›

INVESTMENT BANK Goldman Sachs has U-turned on plans to deliver staff bonuses after April, following a furious reaction from MPs.
The proposal would have seen bankers take advantage of a drop in the top income tax rate to 45p from 50p on 6 April. However, a barrage of criticism from various MPs and the governor of the Bank of England Sir Mervyn King prompted the Wall Street bank to reconsider, reports the Financial Times.
Sir Mervyn said: "I find it a bit depressing that people who earn so much find it to be even more exciting to adjust their payments to benefit from the tax rate, knowing that this must have an impact on the rest of society, which is suffering most from the consequences of the financial crisis."
Public Accounts Committee chair Margaret Hodge yesterday said the move showed wealthy bankers "just don't give a toss about their collective responsibility", adding they are "the first to complain" if snow is not swept from the roads or if trains are delayed.
Goldman took similar steps in the US when it paid out bonuses to its ten top executives on New Year's Eve, hours before Congress voted to raise taxes on America's wealthiest as the 'fiscal cliff' deadline approached.
The investment bank paid out $65m (£39.9m) in restricted stock, narrowly avoiding the higher rate for those earning more than $400,000 per year. Such awards are usually made to the bank's executives in January, but the awards were disclosed in filings made public on New Year's Eve.

VIDEO: Adam Hocking - New Lake District E8by Jack Geldard - UKC Chief Editor Jun/2011
This news story has been read 13,117 times
The Keswickian tackles a bouldery arete through the left side of the big roof at Gouther Crag, underneath the upper section of the E3 One Step Beyond.
Dom Bush from Land and Sky Media was on hand to capture Adam's ascents (short video below). He commented on his blog:
"Gouther Crag in Swindale is a little known gem �of Lakeland climbing and has some fantastic lines of all grades. At it's far left hand end is a prominent roof and slab offering a couple of E4′s which breach the overhang at the right hand side. Adam has had his eye on a line here for years, which follows an obvious corner through the roof and up the unprotected slabs above. Last week this became 'The Keswickian', at E8 7a it is a serious route with a steep bouldery crux section, possible only for the strong and brave! This was the most exciting, nail-biting sequence I have ever filmed and an amazing line. Nice one Adam!"
Adam also recently repeated the very bold wall climb of The Ego Has Landed (E8 6b) first climbed by James McHaffie back in 2000.

Ok so guys I've found something for the rMBP.
First sorry for my english, I'm from france and I post here because there is no mac forums in the EU bnet.
So before 1.0.4 I was running fine @ 40fps. after the patch everything was OK until I ran Onyx to cleanup my mac. After that the game was running @10-15 fps. I could feel lags as soon as I start the game.
I tried everything even patch to 1.8.2 beta (10.8.2 (12C53) Kernel Version: Darwin 12.2.0) + reset NVRAM + SMC…
Nothing worked.
Then I plugged my rMBP to an external display to check the framerate and I noticed that the game was running @ 80+ fps all settings high @ 1280!
I unplugged the display and started the game, had to change the settings to get 1920 back and then: 40 FPS !!!!
Here are some screenshots:
When I run Onyx I check everything in the Automation panel, I think some MacOS caches are involved here because everytime I run Onyx the problem appears.
I have to plug the external display, change some settings, quit, unplug it, relaunch the game, and do everything again if the problem persist. Ultimatly, it will resolve the issue.
I hope it helps.
Cheers from south of France ;)
It has been documented by a number of people that FPS increases/stabilizes dramatically when a secondary display is hooked up to a mac. The way this behave leads me to believe that there is a problem with the way the game is talking with the graphics card drivers. As we have seen this on a number of different models and cards, that seems to exclude a fault with the drivers. Running multiple tests with other games, both native and non-native (wrapped using wine or cider), I cannot seem to reproduce the behavior with the sole exception of Starcraft 2. This leads me to suspect that there is something going on with graphics library that both of these games uses. I would imagine that Blizzard, like Valve and many other companies that do both mac and windows versions of their games uses a library wrapper. This way they can write code once and compile it to be referencing DirectX or OpenGL respectively.
Two posts that I made back in 2010 after the release of Starcraft 2. Same frame-rate issue, 10.6.5 patch made things not as bad, but the bouncing still exists to this day.
This isn't stuttering, it is cyclic and will continue to be that way over time during the entirety of play. The fact that changing the graphics configuration (eg having a second online and active monitor) removes the issue significantly makes me believe there is something wrong with the game's rendering system.
That said, I am not a graphics programmer, I don't write drivers or even work with low level system calls. However I can say that I have never seen anything like this happen outside of Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2. To me this sends up a flag saying that there might be a relation here to what these two games have in common.
Data collection stats:
I have personally seen this happen on every version between 10.6.5-10.8.1.
I only own macs with NVIDIA chipsets in them, so I can only speak for that 9600M GT+9400M, 9400M, 320M
Type of external/secondary display doesn't seem to matter so long as it is there. Though I have only tested this with physical displays. I think that using hacky driver software like AirDisplay wouldn't produce meaningful results.
The game doesn't have to be played on the additional display, the display just has to be hooked up and registered as online to the mac.
Cycles happen every few seconds, and the interval that they have is consistent. Any variation in the cycle is only a result what would be normal drop in fps due to onscreen action.
Temperature doesn't seem to affect the cycles at all. As mentioned above, plugging in a display fixes the problem, temperature doesn't change before or after that. That being said, I have tested this in an environment significantly cooler than where I normally play and that didn't change the cycles.
fresh installs, cleaned caches, perfect file permissions and where it is being stored from have no impact. Same cycles when on a HDD as an SSD.

Investigators looking for cause of $200,000 Ogden fire
OGDEN — Fire investigators continued Monday to sift through the rubble of a two-alarm fire that displaced at least 22 tenants Sunday.
Just before 12:30 p.m. Sunday, firefighters were called to the Canyon Cove Apartments, 1429 Valley Drive, and arrived to find heavy smoke and flames on the west side of the complex.
Crews went door to door to make sure everyone was out. Rescuers found one man who was still asleep in his apartment and got him out safely, said Ogden Deputy Fire Chief Eric Bauman.
"None of the fire alarms went off or anything. We smelled smoke, and we heard some people running down the stairs," said Montana Evans, who was in her apartment with her boyfriend, Tyler Steab, when the fire started.
Evans said smoke was coming into their apartment through the vent, and they could see flames near their window.
The fire stretched to all three floors of the 22-unit complex and caused extensive smoke damage throughout. Early damage estimates were at $200,000.
Bauman said because the utilities to the complex remained shut off after the fire was extinguished, the occupants from all 22 units were not allowed to stay there Sunday night.
"It's not livable at all. Like, there's no way we can move back in there," said Jaide Walker, who escaped her burning apartment along with her husband, their 8-month-old child and two dogs.
"Stuff happens, but that's something you don't want to happen," she said. "It's still unreal. It sucks. It really does suck. This is my first apartment."
The Red Cross has been helping the displaced tenants with food and shelter. Firefighters helped some tenants get back into their apartments briefly Sunday afternoon to grab essential items such as medications and identification, Bauman said.
Steab said his bedroom was destroyed after the ceiling collapsed on it. He said he and Evans were able to get out with only their cellphones and their wallets.
"All that I really care about is that we're OK. You can replace stuff," he said.
The cause of the fire, including a point of origin, was under investigation Monday. No injuries were reported.
This isn't the first time fire has swept through the Canyon Cove Apartments.
In 2005, Jacob Eion Leoncini pleaded guilty to murder for intentionally setting a couch on fire with a cigarette at the Canyon Cove Apartments that killed Dana Byrd, 43. His next parole hearing is scheduled for 2030.
Attorney James Hasenyager, who represented several tenants then, said the fire spread quickly because builders neglected to install fire blockers that were required by building code starting in 1973.
"Fire blocking can be vertical or horizontal," Bauman said. "Typically it's found either in a wall or a floor area, and it restricts the flow of the fire from being able to spread from one area to another."
In 2012, the Utah Appellate Court ruled the owners of Canyon Cove Apartments were negligent because they failed to warn residents that the building did not contain fire blocking and because they failed to take any measures to reduce or eliminate fire hazards when it knew about a previous fire.
In 1994, a massive fire caused about $1.5 million to the complex and displaced approximately 40 tenants. The builders of Canyon Cove were also found negligent in a ruling in 1994.
Both of the previous cases for the fires in 1994 and 2005 ended up settling out of court for undisclosed amounts.
While a cause has not been found in Sunday's blaze, the Ogden fire marshal said the burning was consistent with walls that still do not have fire blockers.
Steab said he believes the past incidents should have been a warning for the 40-year-old building to be upgraded.
"If they've had issues with this in the past, they should fix this. They should make it safe," he said.

Having impressed us with sterling remix work on the label for Chris Hanna, Bubba & T-Bone and JMX alongside his club destroying Raw Deal which was heavily championed at Glasgow's legendary Sub Club, we thought it was about time he hogged the limelight himself. Lead track "In Your Arms" is a proper Juno trip and is as deep as it is solid, proving JC is equally at home adding layers of melody as he is jacking around in the drum department. "Close To The Edge" is a first class example of why we'll always have room for some acid in our house. Drafting in JC's 4Lux label mate & Cardiff's Organ Grinder for remix duties seemed like a perfect fit and in turn he takes In Your Arms on a bumping ride leaving Jack Fell Down to strip things right back on their version and add some serious bottom end, perfect for those late night floors. This is the first original material to be taken from JC Williams debut album on Extended Play, so get to know another quality Belfast export right here.
