Today's IDF morning started with an opening keynote by Paul Otellini devoted to the latest and greatest news from Intel and partners. We had our expectations, of course, but as usual we got mostly teased with all the cool stuff.
Anyway, I will try to highlight the most interesting things that were revealed this morning.
The situation in the industry and in the entire world is such that now more than ever we need the power to come from new silicon. The society got to the point when performance matters again. What has changed? New computers are different. PC games are approaching movie quality, the modern day requirements have changed. Photo editing, video editing, latest OS's, like Windows Vista and OS X drive the need for more computing power.
Take for instance high-definition video. According to research it is picking up really rapidly. Take a look:
However, besides consuming more core capability, the devices are also becoming more mobile. The overall tendency in the notebook market remains the same and streams towards longer battery life, smaller size and sleeker form-factor. If you have been following the news from the last couple of IDFs, then you remember that we talked multiple times about increasing performance and driving power consumption down for the notebook segment. Then we introduced Core Duo – the first dual-core for mobiles. Core 2 Duo announced this July was another step forward towards more efficient performance:
The efficiency of Intel solutions for the notebook market (as well as for desktops) didn't remain unnoticed by such giants of the industry as Apple.
Phil Shiller from Apple proudly announced that they had completed the transition of the entire product line to Intel Pentium microprocessors. Just to refresh your memory: in February Apple announced the first notebook on Intel platform. In March they launched a small form-factor desktop aka Mac Mini with an Intel Core Duo inside. Then they announced an entire new Macbook product line. In August they announced Mac Pro professional workstation that was based on two Xeon dual-core chips that turned out the fastest Mac Apple ever made. He wound up this list with Mac OS X software that should help deliver all the advantages of the new platform to the customers.
The transition to Intel platform was completed less than a month ago. And the major reason for such enthusiasm is the great success and potential of the platform.
Core 2 Duo offers absolutely stunning performance. According to PC magazine it is a "Jaw Droppingly fast" processor:
Besides, the momentum for this product was quite good. Within 60 days after the official launch Intel shipped over 5 million processors.
Overall, it was a very busy summer for Intel. Core 2 Duo launched over a number of segments delivering the world's best and most energy-efficient performance. But could they do better? I bet you know the answer already: what is better than two cores? – Four cores!
As of today Intel has accelerated the schedule to Q4'06 from Q1'07. This is what will look like. The quad-core will first be targeted for the enthusiast or gamer segment of the marketplace. The initial desktop version will be called Core 2 Extreme and will ship in November. According to Intel with the 70% performance improvement compared with the predecessor Core 2 Extreme is currently the fastest single socket microprocessor on the planet.
In Q1 Intel will bring it down into the mainstream segment under the name of Core 2 Quad.
As a demonstration of the quad-core system in action we were offered an episode from Remedy game that ran on a falcon system built using Nvidia graphics, Intel quad-core processors running at 3.73GHz and apparently AGEIA physics. More systems with quad-core inside are coming in November and these will be the systems from the following partners:
The most fundamental level that makes this whole thing work is the transistor. And on the transistor level Moore's law keep working perfectly.
Last year Intel introduced 60nm transistor. Today up to 10 million transistors can fit onto a tip of a ballpoint pen. This week Intel will have shipped their 40th million 65nm microprocessor:
This year Intel is planning another major transition: the launch of 45nm. As a result they are expecting a 30% performance boost and 5-fold reduction in leakage power on the transistor level.
Right now Intel boasts to have the world's only 45nm production facility that cost 3 billion dollars to build. It is Fab D1D in Oregon:
However total investment is in 45nm production has already hit 9 billion dollars. There are two more fabs that are being built now in Israel and Arizona. These will be up and running for 45nm very soon:
As the production facilities are getting ready to be set in operation, the first 45nm design is also almost complete. Intel will have a total of 15 distinct microprocessor designs for this production technology. However, they intend on maintaining sustained technology leadership far beyond just the fine production process:
They will have 300% increase in performance-per-watt between now and the end of the decade.
The technology advancements will also result into significant breakthroughs in the server segment, too. ASCI Red supercomputer was the worlds fastest in 1996 it was a teraflop super-machine that took up the entire room. But what can be better than a super computer in a room? A super computer on a desk!
Today we were given a chance to see the first prototype wafer they will be using for production of 80-core processors.
Each CPU like that will have 80 simple floating-point dies and each die is capable of teraflop performance and can transfer terabytes of data per second. They claim that it will be commercially available in a 5-year window and will be ideal for such tasks as real-time speech translation or massive search, for instance.
Another important milestone in the today's advancement of microprocessor industry is the energy efficient performance. In June Intel started shipping Xeon 5200 dual-core processor. It also had a tremendous momentum. By now they have already shipped 1 million products and have every reason to call it the today's fastest growing server chip. In November Intel will launch quad-core Xeon:
It will be the first quad-core solution for the high-volume server market segments. In next year they will also release a lower voltage version:
It will deliver over 50% improvement in performance in the same power envelope.
In the Digital Home environment there has also been a tremendous amount of changes. The biggest one is closely connected with the explosion of home page video. It stimulates the arrival of a totally a new class of devices. For example, this solution from Toshiba:
It is a 2nd generation of Toshiba's HD DVD players that will be available within sub-$500 price range. It will feature Intel architecture inside and will be shipping in October 2006.
Now another member of the Digital Home concept - the Media PC. It has also evolved quite a bit and so did VIIV technology. Since January when Intel launched this technology, they have done two big things: first they launched Core 2 Duo and developed new software that allows easy access to the VIIV system via the lining-room TV with the help of the digital media adapters (DMA). These devices will be available for around $250 from such makers as:
Wouldn't it be great if the set top box could also act as a DMA? Of course, here is the solution:
Direct TV + HD DVR can take content from the VIIV PC or internet and display it on the same set top box it is connected to. Direct TV expects to sell millions of devices like that next year. They are also developing an add-in tuner card for additional access based content to be viewed on the VIIV PC. It will turn the PC or notebook into an additional receiver.
But all this is meaningless without content. Right now there are over 150 verified services.
Here are some numbers for you. There are over 60 million fantasy football players in the world today involved with Yahoo Sports. AOL features the world's largest library of online movies. Later this week NBC will launch new service for free download of several shows. Lastly ClickStar, that will have the world's first online movie release two weeks after the official Hollywood release (it will be "10 items or less" with Morgan Freeman).
So, content is changing dramatically, but the desktop is not evolving hardly as rapidly. So in order to accelerate the creative process Intel today announced the Core 2 challenge in order to find the sleekest and smallest device design for the Digital Home environment:
The largest benefit for the energy efficient performance is in the devices we carry a round. Notebooks are now accelerating. There are more consumer notebooks sold everywhere than consumer desktops. Centrino was an inflection point in driving notebook growth. Next year Intel will release Santa Rosa – next generation Centrino platform. It will use Core 2 Duo microprocessor, faster wireless, NAND flash memory, new manageability and security features for the enterprise and new generation integrated graphics.
Frequently accessed data will be stored on the NAND flash rather than HDD, so less battery resources will be spent and it will take half as much time for the system to resume from hibernate and load applications.
On the wireless front 802.11n is the next generation wireless standard. It is about 5 times faster than the today's standard:
The next inflection point for mobility is what Intel calls "broadband to go". It means we have personal portable broadband internet. To implement this into life we need pervasive wireless broadband and new class of portable computers to carry. The first one is clearly WiMAX:
Mobile WiMAX will first be available as add-in cards later this year and throughout 2007. In 08 it will be integrated into a single module and will be part of Centrino platform.
As for the new class of devices, they will be ultra-small and ultra-portable. And Intel is accelerating their plans here also. Next year they intend to ship one that has one half the power and takes one fourth the surface space than the current solutions. In 2008 Intel will meet their initially set decade goal. And they will most probably move beyond that by the end of the decade. All these devices will offer full web capability and will run full versions of Windows Vista.
This portable solution features the lowest power consuming processor built by Quanta, built-in camera, built-in keyboard, WiFi and WiMAX. It can play videos, perform real-time search and features GPS functions, i.e. boasts full rich power of the PC and full wireless capability. As a demo they showed a VW vehicle with the device like that integrated. Very neat toy, although I liked the Chrysler from back in the days much more :) (for details see Intel Developer Forum Spring 2005: Day 1 Coverage).
The real power of the technology is the ability to transform lives.
Intel contributed a lot to this program. It is launched in 30 countries around the world and is aimed at making PCs access affordable to citizens, training teachers, and distributing prototype of the education PC among some schools in Africa and other countries. The prototype is known as Classmate PC and it is going to be out in the first quarter of next year.

TollfreeNumber.ORG says business owners are investing in 800 numbers for their businesses amid reports that the 800 number supply has reached an all-time low in the USA
Irvine, United States
(IBwire.com -
January 23, 2013) The Toll free phone number specialists atTollfreeNumber.ORG are suggesting that all who wish to invest in a toll free 800 number do so as soon as possible, given the rising popularity and record breaking lack of supply. To date, the available stock of 800 numbers has plummeted to just 60,000 out of a 10 million total, and TollfreeNumber.ORG is warning that people may not be able to register new 800 numbers in the near future. Some phone companies such as AT&T have already stopped offering 800 numbers through their website. And many well known phone companies including Grasshopper & Ringcentral have been reportedly charging extra for obtaining a coveted 800 phone number.
The delay of the release of 844 numbers by the FCC has played a major role in the depletion of the 800 number supply, and has proved to be a convincing argument as to why business owners should register their toll free numbers in a timely manner. These 844 area code numbers were due to be released by now, but were pushed back to late 2013 or late 2014 by the FCC for undisclosed reasons.
This has led many toll free specialists and experts to estimate that the reserve of available 800 numbers will not be replenished until the release of the 844 numbers. As a result, the supply and demand structure of the toll free industry regarding, 800 numbers, has been significantly impacted, with more and more numbers being requested each month that are no longer available within the stock pool.
The benefits of having an 800 number range from enhanced marketing to improved customer service, making them a historically popular business tool amongst small and large companies alike. However, the ever growing demand for 800 numbers has caused their supply to dwindle to alarming numbers, with the other toll free area codes quickly following suit. Therefore, business owners and entrepreneurs are being urged to purchase their toll free 800 number immediately, in order to ensure that they receive the ideal toll free number for their business and marketing needs. In addition, those that currently own 800 numbers that are not being used have been asked to visit TollfreeNumber.ORG to recycle their unused numbers in order to replenish the supply.
Not only can an 800 number offer all of the aforementioned benefits, but it also has the ability to lend credibility to a business image as well, and provides customers with an improved customer service experience. With an 800 number, customers will have the opportunity to reach a business directly, leading to greater sales, improved customer loyalty and buyer confidence. Thus, having a toll free number is regarded as being a worthwhile investment by toll free experts and business owners alike, in that business goals can be achieved in an affordable and quick way via a toll free 800 number purchased through TollfreeNumber.ORG.
Tollfreenumber.ORG specializes in assisting small businesses by providing low-cost toll-free phone numbers that require no additional hardware and can be routed to any phone. Businesses can use the company's website to search for available custom phone numbers in the 800, 888, 877, 866 or 855 area codes. The company also offers additional business services through its Virtual Telecenter, which provides 24-hour live answering, among other services.
Tollfreenumber.ORG is based in Irvine, Calif., and was founded in 1999. The company serves more than 100,000 customers throughout the United States. For more information on getting a toll-free customized phone number for small business use, contact Tollfreenumber.ORG at 1-800-951-9411, or visit the company's website athttp://www.TollfreeNumber.org.

Measles Spike in US
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) announced in a recent press release the data for 2013 so far shows 175 confirmed cases of measles in the US. This is about three times the usual rate of 60 per year since endemic measles was eradicated in the US, and is the most in the last decade other than 2011, which saw 222 cases.
Measles is a highly contagious virus that primarily causes a respiratory infection. It is not benign. According to the CDC:
About one out of 10 children with measles also gets an ear infection, and up to one out of 20 gets pneumonia. About one out of 1,000 gets encephalitis, and one or two out of 1,000 die.
About 500 Americans died each year of measles prior to the introduction of the vaccine. Measles is still endemic in Europe and many other parts of the world, causing about 20 million infections and 164,000 deaths each year. (more…)

Si Clauses - Spanish If-Then Clauses - Spanish Conditionals
Many students of Spanish have a hard time with si clauses (also known as conditionals or conditional sentences), but they are really quite simple. Study the lessons on each of the main types and then take the quiz.
There are three main types of si clauses:
The first verb tense listed is the one that follows si (if), while the second tense is the "result clause" - the event that is dependent on the first. In English, the "result clause" is often preceded by then.
All you have to do is memorize the verb tense pairs and you're all set. You can learn more about each pair by clicking on the links above or go right to the test on si clauses.

Posted on 06/16/2009 5:14:08 PM PDT by i88schwartz
CNN: Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter said Tuesday on a visit to Gaza that he had to "hold back tears" when he saw the destruction caused by the deadly campaign Israel waged against Gaza militants in January. Carter was wrapping up a visit to the region during which he met representatives of all sides of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
(Excerpt) Read more at realclearpolitics.com ...
I hold back tears when I think of Carter's term as president.
Americans had to hold back tears from 1977 to 1981 everyday they picked up the morning paper.
I have to "hold back my lunch" any time I see Carter on video.
I wonder if he was watching after the Israeli's pulled out of Gaza a few years ago and cried over the destruction the Palestinians did of all the improvements and infastructure that the Israeli's left behind, intact? I doubt it.
Carter failure 1: Iran
Carter failure 2: North Korea
We're STILL dealing with this stuff. If the man had ANY class you would think he would HIDE...
stupid antisemitic biotch
Dear Jimmah,
Please move to Gaza. Now.
No kidding!
I had to hold back throwing my pc across the office when I saw this idiot say that.
God, forgive me, but I truly despise this man.
Spot on. ;-)
Spent to many years close to a leaking reactor. ;-)
I have to hold back tears when thinking about how Carter acquiesced to criminals, tyrants and dictators and screwed the world up for the next 30 years.
Hmmm. Come to think of it, Barry is picking up that mantle.
I will remove it for 30 days rather than acknowledge that miserable SOB.
I hold back tears knowing how many idiots voting this guy into the White House. But then again, I cry even more tears knowing how many idiots voted this new Marxist into the White House
It is his utter obliviousness to the obvious flint-eyed gangster thugs surrounding him that makes the picture.
I don't know when he parted company with reality but the process is now total.
Does he really believe he's still one of the sainted "good guys"?
I don't think I have any tears left.
I don't think anyone gives a dam what Carter thinks...1/2 the population doesn't even know who he is..the other 1/2 don't care.
Hold back tears. Give me a break. When did he turn in his testicles for cryin' out loud?
Good to see Carter cry. Here's hoping he gets to cry many more times.
Crocodile tears, huh, Carter? Spare me your twisted anti-semitism.
The Gazans cannot run a greenhouse, much less anything else and have been educated only in Jihad in general and Jihad against Israel in particular.
The Israelis gave them large, expensive, fantastic producing greenhouses several years ago. The Palestinians gutted them instantly.
Carter did not cry over their self-induced ignorance, but that is liberal thinking.
I share your pain, and beg to revise and extend your remarks to cover the period from January 20th, 1981 to the present and beyond.
I'm not going to say it, but you know damned well what I'm thinking.
Carter should stop trying to be Secretary of State.
What was Israel to do, let Hamas bomb them until the end of the world without responding.
If Israel wanted, it could exterminate everyone one the West Bank and Gaza. Have they? Nuff said!!!
I guess at his age Carter has trouble holding any form of water.
It's the 1/2 that don't know who he is that's got us into this freaking mess.
I hold back tears watching the mess that Carter helped make out of Iran.
He's a pathetic fr*ggin' excuse for a former President!
Atta boy, Jimmah, hold back them tears bravely now. Them Palasstinians will make a man outta you before you know it. Big boys don't cry, Jimmah, hold back them there tears, hold 'em. I know it's hard, but you can do it. Be brave, Jimmah, be brave.
God broke the mold when He made Jimmah, didn't he? I didn't think a mortal man could be this brave.
Not much longer now, Jimmah, just keep your finger in the dike a little longer now. Hold 'em, Jimmah, hold 'em.
Speaking of Secretary of State, you know both Clintons are pissed that Carter is in the Mideast practicing his own diplomacy. Carter pulled this crap when Clinton was president, and Carter feels free to pull this stunt now because he knows that Hillary is ineffective because Zero hates her guts.
You think it was bad with Bush. Wait one more year with Obama and we'll all be crying. Obama is Carter on speed! Obama is the classic narcissist. It's all about him. He's always speaking, never doing! He loves to hear himself and to see the adulation of the crowd. He makes me sick! I can't even watch this self-absorbed egomaniac.
As for Carter, he goes over there as a spokesman for the Palestinians whom he loves so much, and HAMAS tries to kill him. I wonder what goes through that demented mind as he wakes up to the fact that his real enemies are the ones he is trying to support. Long live Israel. It shall never be defeated or driven out because God gave them the land thousands of year ago, BEFORE there ever was a Palestinian.
On any given day, any month of the year, I know, I can come to Freep and get a good laugh from comments. Today is no different. I'm in tears, laughing at the tears you guys are in, from Carter's tears, and in remembrance of his tearful administration. I'm just bustin a spleen.
Gawd, do we have some witty folks.
Bill Clinton could have had those tears appear on cue. Carter is a piker. Send him back to double A.
It's very interesting, perhaps symbolic (maybe ironic) that Carter is in the Mideast exactly when Iran is rioting after a fraudulant election. Carter still thinks he's cool beans because of the Sadat-Begin (sp) handshake. He seems to forget that he has something to do with the current state of affairs in Iran.
You don't have to ask forgiveness. I'm quite sure that God can't stand him either.
What Carter has going for him is that those under 30 have no memory of how bad things were then. His ineptitude has been eclipsed only by the disastrous tenure of Obama.
Well, why don't you just trot on over to Iran and give them a hand, again.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
I hold back tears when I contemplate just how gullible and stupid this buttnugget really is.
Is Jimmy a member of the KKK?
You and me both, Joe. I still have to hold back tears of "rage" when I see that boob to this day.
Carter never had any tears for the Innocent Israelis slaughtered by the muslim throwbacks he has come to love so dearly.
I swear - something in his head slipped a cog when the muslims showed the world what an incompetent, bumbling ass he was as president. He ends up becoming the defender of his abusers and tormentors.
It's similar to what we see happening with leftists, elitists and the media in America since 9/11.
These people have become the defenders and promoters of the muslims and the Islamic culture responsible for the attack and slaughter of 3,000 innocents on our own soil.

FBC Florala successful in revitalization effort comment (0)
March 31, 2011
By Sondra Washington
One mile and a state line was all that separated two struggling churches — each clinging to something the other desperately needed. Clear Springs Baptist Church, Laurel Hill, Fla., was growing in membership and bursting at the seams of its small building, while First Baptist Church, Florala, had no pastor and more room than its dwindling congregation could use.
In February 2010, after a great deal of prayer and several joint meetings, the two churches came together at First, Florala, a member of Covington Baptist Association, with Pastor Charles Lennard at the helm. Since then, those witnessing the union have been steadily amazed at how God has moved in the church and surrounding community.
"We've seen God do some amazing things through His people there (at First, Florala) and we are very grateful," Director of Missions Larry Cummings said. "It's a model for other churches of what God can do if they are open to His leadership. … It's been a pleasure to watch what's transpired there."
Before joining with Clear Springs Baptist, First, Florala, averaged 35 in worship. Now the church gets visitors every week, new members every month and usually has between 175 and 200 in attendance.
Part of that growth is because the majority of Lennard's Clear Springs congregation of about 200 followed him to First, Florala, but it's also because the church has been reaching out to the community. For instance, the youth do missions Saturdays, when they go out and do things like mow yards, pick up trash and repair houses.
When Clear Springs came, it brought a lot of pastors, which meant the church was able to move into new ministries like Awana and add to the youth, Sunday School and children's program.
"I did not think we would progress as fast as we have," Lennard noted. "It was a perfect match — people loving, supporting and encouraging one another. … Both groups had a heart for missions and coming together. It has been more blessed than we expected (and) a lot more joy than we expected."
Sara Goolsby, who has been a member of First, Florala, for about 50 years and was chairwoman of the pastor search committee before the churches united, said she truly feels that this experience has been "very God-led and -directed."
Goolsby said some leaders of both churches had talked about teaming up two years earlier but it was not the right time.
"I don't think it would have worked three or four years ago," she said. "It wouldn't have been as successful as this has been. … Our church had its ups and downs and had been through some tough times. … God's timing is always perfect."
After watching First, Florala, steadily "go down" over the years to the "worst situation" she had ever seen it in, longtime member Lucille Cox was the person who brought the idea of uniting with Clear Springs to Goolsby. Cox said First, Florala, needed to make some changes but it didn't rush its decision even though she felt certain that God was calling Lennard to the church.
"It was not a fast, spur-of-the-moment thing," she said, noting the process took several months. "We thought it out and went through the channels we needed to go through."
Clear Springs had planned to build a church, but with the down economy, the bank wouldn't lend it any money. And the church's decision to unite with First, Florala, instead of building a church and going into debt is just fine with Linda Russell.
"It has been a great experience," she said. "I think we still have the same group spirit that we had out there (at Clear Springs). We just have more room, and we've been able to grow. Everyone has accepted us. It's worked out really well."
When the church celebrated its first birthday Feb. 6, Rick Lance, executive director of the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions, was the guest speaker. Lance said he has never witnessed such a good account of how a congregation has worked together in a declining area to have a thriving church.
Cummings agreed the revitalization of First, Florala, is a wonderful story and said he is excited to see what the future holds for the church.
"We are very positive about what is going to be happening in Florala in the next few years because of the ministry of that church."

What is in this article?:
- Georgia peanut growers encouraged by farm bill progress
- A big hurdle
• UGA peanut specialists say there is still a lot of work to be done before growers know specifics about what farmers can expect in new legislation.
GEORGIA PEANUT growers are encouraged by farm bill progress.
The recent vote by the U.S. House of Representatives Agricultural Committee to approve a five-year, $500 billion farm bill has encouraged Georgia peanut growers and given them hope some legislation will be decided on this year.
However, UGA peanut specialists say there is still a lot of work to be done before they know specifics about what farmers can expect.
Last year Congress decided to extend the 2008 farm bill by one year, as no new legislation was agreed upon. John Beasley, a peanut agronomist with the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, said knowing what the future holds is key for farmers who need to plan for the year ahead.
"Growers want some sort of bill just so they'll know the rules and regulations which they're operating under," said Beasley.
"It's always a challenge to get a crop planted and not know where it's going. Going into the winter, we were out talking to farmers, sharing research, and most weren't sure how many acres they needed to plant. They weren't sure about crop rotation and the financial end of it. And our lending institutions are reluctant to provide capital if they don't know where it's going."
The bills produced by the agricultural committees in both the U.S. House and Senate are similar, said UGA Peanut Economist Nathan Smith. Both bills eliminated direct payments, but they do provide some stabilization for rural economies.
"The loss of the direct payment program wasn't really unexpected," Smith said. "With the budget deficit and everything that has come out of the super committee and the fact that the 2008 farm bill was extended out for this year, we thought that farmers would lose direct payments.
"But there is some choice for producers with the choice between the price loss program and the shallow loss program. That's something new and something that should be good for our farmers."
Smith added that revenue insurance is relied on heavily by corn and grain growers in other parts of the country but does not benefit Southern growers as much. While he is encouraged by the progress in Washington, Smith believes there are still some serious discussions to be had.

Current setup...
The McIntosh would occasionally drop the left channel when i first got it, though it seems to have healed itself before I got around to opening it up.
Unfortunately, the Heathkit has deteriorated and generates a lot of white noise now. I don't think that one's going to recover on its own.

Rüsselsheim/Essen. KAD – this acronym is not only familiar to Opel brand enthusiasts. In the 1960s and 70s, Kapitän, Admiral and Diplomat were 'The Big Three' vehicles that defined Opel's upper class range. The tradition-rich brand celebrates the anniversary of its premium class trio at the 26th Techno Classica in Essen (March 26 – 30): Kapitän, Admiral and Diplomat are 50 years old.
The KAD range entered the market in March 1964. With identical bodies in a modern, linear form, the vehicles were distinguished by their equipment and engines. Five years later, they were succeeded by new, B-series models which set standards in their class with the introduction of state-of-the-art chassis technology and even sleeker styling. Opel builds the bridge to today at the Techno Classica with the Insignia Sports Tourer OPC – the top model from Rüsselsheim will also be on display in Essen. As in the past, Opel Classic presents itself together with the Alt Opel IG vintage car club, the biggest Opel fan club in the world.
The ten KAD vehicles on show at Essen encompass the entire bandwidth of the A and B model series. With a 2.6-liter, six-cylinder engine, the Kapitän A marked Opel's entrance into the premium class in 1964. Only 113 units of the least common model in the range, the Kapitän with the optional 4.6-liter V8 engine from the Diplomat, were built. In addition, a rare Admiral V8 from the Rüsselsheim Opel Classic collection will be exhibited in Essen. The Diplomat A V8 Coupé also on show was one of the fastest series production cars in Germany in 1965. Retailing at 25,500 Deutschmarks and built by the coachbuilder Karmann, this two-door car was intended for 'travelers of class' and had a top speed of 205 km/h thanks to its V8 engine with 5.4 liters displacement and 230 hp.
Representatives of the B-series include a Kapitän and an Admiral, each with a 2.8-liter engine, as well as a Diplomat 2800 E, which was one of the first German six-cylinder cars to feature electronic fuel injection. The KAD exhibition line-up is rounded off by a Diplomat V8 with a 5.4-liter engine, plus two very special variants of the flagship: a Diplomat V8 with a long wheelbase from the Opel Classic collection which was used during the state visit of US President Gerald Ford in July 1975, and a four-door Diplomat 2.8 E Convertible from a private collection which was one of four vehicles modified for representation purposes by Karmann in 1970.
In the spring of 1964, Opel restructured its premium class offer and, after a break of 20 years, again set its sights on buyers of luxury sedans. Kapitän, Admiral and Diplomat were its "Big Three", as the company referred to them in its advertisements. The vehicles adopted linear design inspired by the stylistic role models of Opel's US parent, General Motors. Designers and critics alike called this type of styling "new objectivity", a marked departure from ornamental, baroque-like bodywork.
The bodywork of the stretched and progressively designed trio from Rüsselsheim was identical and, with a length of 4.95 meters and a width of 1.90 meters, the body of the Opel premium class contenders reached a new dimension. Opel displayed its greatness!
While the Kapitän, already Germany's best-selling six-cylinder car, was appearing as a new edition, and the luxuriously equipped Admiral continued the success of the famous pre-war model of the same name, the Diplomat became Opel's new top model. By extending its model range upwards, Opel was the only German manufacturer able to offer customers a complete product portfolio: from the Kadett to the Rekord, Kapitän and Admiral, right up to the Diplomat, every buyer could find a suitable car.
The ranking order in the premium class was determined by equipment and engine size. The Kapitän was the only car in the series with a bench seat up front, giving it a six-seater designation, while the other two models had individual front seats.
The Kapitän and Admiral came with the familiar 100 hp, 2.6-liter, six-cylinder engine, which was fitted with maintenance-free hydraulic tappets for the first time. Another new feature was the fully synchronized, four-speed manual gear shift at the steering wheel. A sporty central shift, or the two-speed automatic transmission, was offered at extra cost. A modern, dual-circuit braking system with front disc brakes came as standard.
The Diplomat's engine was sourced from the United States: a V8 unit with 4.6-liter displacement and 190 hp powered this flagship of the model series. While the Kapitän and Admiral had a top speed of 155 km/h, the Diplomat achieved 200 km/h and accelerated from zero to 100 km/h in 11 seconds. Luxury, elegance and character were the Diplomat's distinguishing features: the interior was dominated by deep-pile carpets, plush upholstery and a real-wood veneer dashboard, as well as a band speedometer going up to 250 km/h. A vinyl roof, reclining seats, four electric windows, side mirrors adjustable from the inside, and foot-well lights in the rear passenger compartment were additional exclusive equipment details. Hydraulic steering and braking systems, as well as fog lights, were fitted as standard.
Just one year after launch, Opel extended the appeal of the KAD model series. From spring 1965, the Kapitän and the Admiral were optionally available with the 4.6-liter V8 engine and the automatic transmission from the Diplomat. An upgraded chassis with reinforced cardan shafts, axles, wheels, tires and brakes was included in the price of 14,740 and 15,950 Deutschmarks respectively for Kapitän and Admiral V8 models, which retained their special status: only 113 Kapitän and 622 Admirals were built.
A short time later the standard versions were upgraded. They received a newly-developed, camshaft-in-head (CIH), six-cylinder engine with 2.8-liter displacement. This quiet, short-stroke, in-line engine shared its CIH design with the four-cylinder engine introduced in 1965 in the Rekord B. As the S version, the new engine delivered 125 hp and reached a top speed of 170 km/h. For model year 1968, a stronger, 140 hp version was also available as an option.
In 1965, Opel gave the Deutsches Museum in Munich a very special Admiral 2.8 S. Converted to a cutaway model in 5,000 hours of work, the exhibit provided insight into the car's body structure and technology, replacing the Kapitän model on display since 1952. A Diplomat convertible, built by Karmann on a coupé base, and a long, seven-seat version built by the coachbuilder Vogt remained individual showpieces.
In February 1969 Opel set new technical standards in the premium segment with the new generation KAD models: fundamentally reworked stylistically and technically, they made clear statements in terms of comfort, safety and economy. Kapitän, Admiral and Diplomat had a sophisticated, completely newly developed chassis; body and interior were designed with an emphasis on passive safety. Compared with the predecessor models, the dimensions of the KAD B series were smaller, while the six and eight-cylinder engines were thriftier.
As before, the Kapitän marked the entry level into the new KAD class. Its 2.8-liter, camshaft-in-head, in-line six-cylinder engine delivered 132 hp. Right above this was the comfortably equipped Admiral, which delivered 145 hp in the 2800 S variant and 165 hp in the most powerful Admiral 2800 E version. The electronic Bosch fuel injection was an innovation and was developed especially for the six-cylinder. The modern, smooth-running 165 hp engine was also available in the top Diplomat model. Combined with a three-speed automatic transmission, the 230 hp, 5.4-liter V8 from Chevrolet was reserved for the Diplomat that reached a top speed of 205 km/h. This model distinguished itself with vertical headlamps and rear lights from the Kapitän and Admiral with their horizontally arranged lamps.
Still boasting an impressive appearance, the smooth-surfaced, no-frills body of the "Big Three" was now shorter and slimmer than the previous model series whose design was largely influenced by American tastes. Now the motto was "European with functional design and modern technology."
With the exception of the engines, the new KAD series represented a completely new design. Body structure and interior were characterized by passive safety. The high-tech, coil-sprung De Dion rear axle was the most important innovation on the chassis side. After test drives, car tester icon Fritz B. Busch summarized the qualities of the new premium model as follows: "Opel has outdone itself with this model. Engine, chassis, steering and braking are among the best I have ever come across."
Just one year after the debut of the second KAD generation, Opel streamlined the model range. In April 1970 the Kapitän was dropped and replaced by the Admiral N. The Diplomat, on the other hand, continued to grow: a long version of the Opel flagship was launched in August 1973 for top managers, ministers and heads of state. The wheelbase grew by 150 millimeters and rear seat passengers enjoyed the full benefit of the additional space.
Coachbuilders such as Karmann and Vogt produced other special versions based on the KAD models. Working as a sub-contractor for Karmann, in 1970 the Italian specialist Fissore in Turin converted four Diplomat 2.8 E models to convertible sedans with an open roof and fixed window frame. Until the summer of 1979, the Diplomat convertibles were used as prestigious shuttle service vehicles at major events to transport prominent athletes, actors, politicians and other celebrities.
The Vogt company in Bad Neuenahr took a different approach. As commissioned by Germany's second public-service television broadcaster ZDF, the specialized company converted various Admiral and Diplomat models to fast and spacious camera cars. Thanks to the large trunk lid, even bulky equipment could be easily transported.
Possibly the most attractive Opel Diplomat was launched on the market as a sporty coupé. In 1973 former racing driver Erich Bitter presented the Diplomat CD, modelled on the CD (Coupé Diplomat) study developed by Opel for the IAA car show in 1969. The body of the 2+2-seater was designed by Bitter in collaboration with the Opel Design Center. Built by Baur in Stuttgart, the luxury coupé was based on the Diplomat B.
After a successful career in the automotive elite, the end came for the "Big Three" of the B series in July 1977 after sales of 11,017 (Kapitän), 31,827 (Admiral) and 18,725 (Diplomat). In 1978 Opel's premium models for travelers of class were replaced by the completely newly designed Senator and Monza models.

The man was described as a white male in his late 20s or early 30s about 6 feet tall, medium build, and wearing a light-colored shirt. Police said they received multiple reports that the man made it to shore and ran off.MORE IN Vermont News

The 2014 NFL draft is upon us. Naturally, this is a perfect time to revisit the 2013 class.
What if teams got a mulligan on last year's draft? One year isn't enough to determine if a player is a success or bust, but it is certainly enough to change how things would have happened.
Of course, we have to wipe out draft-day trades as a part of this exercise. There is no telling how the draft would have shaped in that regard if we were able to do it all over again. Instead of guessing, teams were given their original draft picks here.
The exceptions are teams that made trades before the draft—the New York Jets, Seattle Seahawks and St. Louis Rams have extra draft picks at the expense of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Seattle Seahawks and Washington, respectively, as a result.

Buggle Facebook Game Review
Facebook Game OverviewGame Genre: Action Arcade
The Good:easy to grasp, lots of levels, full layout seen
The Bad:poor graphics, frustrating unfair obstacles, simplistic
I didn't like this game – and I usually love bubble games. The biggest frustration is in the seemingly intentional rotation of the bubble that made levels with a set amount of bubbles available impossible to pass. You end up retrying the same level over and over just ready to buy more kicks at the can. Feels amateur. There's better bubble games out there (and reviewed here too!).
uggle is about a hungry bear looking to a beehive in a big tree for honey. Sound familiar? Well, it's not quite the famous cartoon bear you had in mind, but it is the premise in the arcade bubble style game on Facebook.
There are strong points like its addictive nature (on the presumption that this is the only bubble game you've ever or will ever play). But seriously, it's got TONS of levels. The developer seems keen to keep adding more levels which is really great. I love to see a game supported by people who want to keep improving and enhancing the game experience. Sadly, the actual game itself has some challenges. But the best way to evaluate it is to play for yourself . If my theory that poorly reviewed games get more interest and popularity than the gems, than Buggle's gonna be a huge hit!
Buggle – OVERVIEW
Buggle is not Boggle (in case you're wondering). Buggle is actually a bubble popping arcade style game like many other similar games of the same type in Facebook. The premise is that you are a smack-talking bear who must stock up on honey before winter. But to climb the tree you must pass the all the levels getting you progressively higher to the honey bee hive.
The twist on this bubble game is that you basically only need to drop the "Wasp Bubble" which means you do NOT have to clear the board (for some levels at least). As you drop balls into the honey pots below, a sliding scale increases your honey reserves which provides opportunities for bonus points on large combination pops. Once you clear the level, the bear dances and your honey pours! You also earn more reward coins based on how fully you complete a level (ie. 3-2-1 stars).
Levels also have different challenges. For example in Level 2 you only have 50 bubbles to shoot. As you progress, you obtain new items like Keys to unlock levels, bubble bombs, rainbow bubbles etc. You'll lose lives pretty quick as the game is set up to look deceptively easy. The challenge is in the bubble budget – you will lose a lot of lives by running out of bubbles even when making all the right moves. This slant in the game is common enough that it makes the game a frustrating affair.
Buggle – STRATEGY
Buggle's twist is that many progressive levels poses new and different challenges. For example there's a level with ""obstacle bubbles"" that once popped releases a wasp that flies around and interferes with your bubble shots or ""block"" bubbles that stay solid for 7 turns.
This is made all the more challenging by the fact that there is usually a bubble limit on these levels. My first piece of advice is to read the level intros carefully so you know what to steer clear from and/or what the target is. The intial stages are painfully easy. But that's the trick. What will kill you is the combination of poor bubble dispensing coupled with the bubble budget or limit.
What I mean is watch out for a bit of uneven 'randomness' in bubbles to shoot. I once had 8 red bubbles in a row with nowhere to really put them or advance forward with. Or another time I kept getting red and green several times in a row where all I had exposed on the play area was yellow, orange and dark blue. This result is dwindling down your allotment. I fired the rest of the bubbles perfectly but still lost the level because I ran out of bubbles.
While there isn't much you can do in this situation, my strategy is simple: don't make mistakes by wasting bubbles, and look for chain connections that you can break to:
1) expose more colors
2) reveal another large chain to break
3) release or lead to releasing the trapped bee."
Buggle – TIPS, HINTS & CHEATS
"Starting at Level 9 you start to get the ceiling dropping, so make sure if you're struggling that you clear the lowest bubbles first before aiming for the bees.
Also try to use the sides to bank your shots to make larger bubble drops. Remember, the goal is free the bees, NOT to clear the board (unless the challenge on that level IS to drop all bubbles too). With falling ceilings, definitely use the SPACEBAR to switch bubbles if it makes sense to do so.
Randomness – The bubble budget and coincidence of all the wrong bubbles appearing near the end of the level seem deliberately designed for you to fail and use up a life (presumably so you can buy more when you run out). Or maybe I'm just venting my frustration at losing certain levels. But in either case, the key tip here is to save your bubbles and always make sure you're clearing as many as possible in each shot which also exposing as many colors as possible so you avoid wastage.
Squeezing – You can't really squeeze bubbles through on Buggle. If you're even a little bit too close, it will stick to the first bubble it grazes past. I have been able to get the odd squeeze in, but not consistently – and I'm a pro at bubble games. Maybe it's too much honey in there.
Shooting Aim Guide – Don't trust this. You can aim through bubbles right to the top of the playing area, but unlike other bubble games, the ruler just shows you the bubble's angle or trajectory making no allowances for obstacles. If you're not sure how this will affect you, see 'squeezing' above.
Good Luck! You'll need it the way a good blackjack player needs it when betting against the house.
Genre – Is the official game classification on Facebook
Developer – The owner or company who is the official name behind the game
Skill Level – The difficulty level is either Easy, Medium, or Hard
Addictive It's "Rarely Play It", "Here And There", "Play It Often", or "Like A Drug"
Platforms – Some games can be played on iPhone, Android, iPad, Mac, etc. as well
DataGrabbered – For cheat sheets and answer list charts: Yes or No (not yet or N/A)
Quick To Learn – How fast you can get playing with no experience
Fun Rating – No point if it's not much fun to play
Killer Graphics – This isn't the '90's. Killer graphics are a MUST in games today
Stability – Does the game crash? stall? crawl? or eat credits?
Bang For Buck – If you spend real $$ on upgrades and credits, is it worth it?

The Revelation Song
The Worship Team at Central has done this song a number of times, and it gets me right there every time. I've never been able to find much about it online; I figured that it had been recorded & was on CD. Not that I could find anyway.
Last time it was used in a worship service I recorded it three different times, but each recording has some little glitch with it, but I love listening to it anyway. Laura Wick did an awesome job on it (but then again I think I'd enjoy anything she sang.)
Today they did it again, and had the lyrics on the screen, along with the name of the songwriter — Jennie Lee Riddle.
Turns out I'm not the only one that's been touched by this song; she's got quite a following. Don Moen has even included her on one of his CD's, which is available through iTunes. Jennie's church, Gateway Church in Dallas, TX, has quite a worship music ministry, and produces & sells their own CD's — and books — online. I've already bought the Don Moen version on iTunes, but will probably buy the Gateway CD — Living For You — to help support the ministry.
But in truth, I think I prefer the Central worship team's performance!

NHTSA — Steering Problems
2009 Nissan Maxima (Page 3 of 7)
CarComplaints.com Notes: We don't recommend the 2009 Maxima nearly as highly as the 2007-2008 Maxima, because NHTSA complaints show a pattern of the steering lock module failing.
When the module fails it prevents the car from starting, & Nissan dealers charge over $1,000 (!!) to repair it. Nissan recalled the module on some other 2009 models with the same steering lock problem, but for some reason they left out the 2009 Maxima.
If you're thinking about buying a 2009 Maxima, instead consider a 2007-2008, or 2010 (or newer).

Skip to comments.At the Supreme Court, a royal mess for King Barack
Posted on 02/25/2014 1:06:18 AM PST by afraidfortherepublic
It has the makings of a royal mess for King Barack.
Monday mornings Supreme Court argument about the Environmental Protection Agencys authority to regulate greenhouse gases went badly for the Obama administration so much so that the real question before the justices seemed to be how severe the EPAs loss would be.
The administrations solicitor general, Donald Verrilli, pleaded with the justices to recognize the urgent problem of climate change, because the threat to future generations gets worse with each passing year.
But as the argument played out, the courts swing justice, Anthony Kennedy, made clear that he agreed with the conservatives that the administration had gone too far in its carbon-dioxide regulations. Even some of the liberal justices voiced skepticism about the Justice Departments position.
I know litigants hate this question, Justice Sonia Sotomayor told Verrilli. She asked which of two rationales he would prefer if you were going to lose.
I knew you were going to ask me that question, the solicitor general replied.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
This is an argument to make before the Legislature. The fact that the Administration is asking the nine Justices of the Supreme Court to make this kind of a scientific decision shows how far we are down the rabbit hole.
>> the Supreme Court to make this kind of a scientific decision
Not the first time the idiots proved science is political.
I'd like to be optimistic. But when it comes to the SCOTUS actually getting it right it's hard to be optimistic. I'll continue to pray for a smidgen of sanity.
How much will King Barack's thumb be on the scales of justice to get what he wants without appearing too obvious, I wonder.
Exactly right.
Kennedy swings both ways.
Never again will I underestimate the supreme courts ability to come up with the wrong decision on any Constitutional matter.
Yes and there's many more examples like Roberts finding that Obamacare fines were just taxes after all, therefore making it Constitutional.
This entire government is working against liberty AND justice and they all need to be replaced, ASAP.
Praying for sanity and dare I say "adherence to our Constitution"?
Roe v Wade ...
Trying to guess what the SCOTUS will do has bitten the right to many times before.
Only way to know is wait and see what they do and I'm not making any bets they'll do the right thing. We have Obamacare, enough said.
I lost all respect for them with the Obummercare vote.
Welcome King Barack "Canute" Obama the Great.....
...Obama issues an Executive Order to the Sun...
....to increase it's magnetic field....
and make a good crop of sunspots before elections in 2016....
(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2016 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.
The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.
Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.

"Either way, it was clear that this court would not be of service to the 'king.' "( From the article.)
They will be once the NSA has dished up or manufactured dirt on them.
Uh, Dana, I have news for you: SCOTUS is not a reliable barometer for protecting Constitutional freedoms.
And besides, the Clown and his jester Eric the Red have already demonstrated they will IGNORE the law.
" known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years."
Yes, which followed the MWP (Medieval Warm Period), when Greenland was partly green.
The AGW clowns are composed of con artist and their useful idiots.
Okay, I'm curious. How does low, or no sunspots, translate into "no electricity"?
Have the oceans truly risen? Anybody? Bueller?
Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.
Okay, I'm curious. How does low, or no sunspots, translate into "no electricity"?
King Obama has decreed the shutdown of the coal and oil industries providing fuel for the generation of electricity because he claims they produce carbon dioxide emissions causing Global Warming and Climate Change (Anthropogenic Climate Change AGW). King Obama is a Denier when it comes to the science of Global Cooling when the Earth's climate goes into the extraordinary little ice age for a period of decades or centuries in response to the cyclical weakening of the Solar magnetic field and ceases the normal production of Sunspots for prolonged periods of time.
I get that part. The part I don't get it how lack of sunspots affects coal production or the production of electricity?
There should be a separation of church and state. Oh, wait?
OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the suns planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
Obama IS King.
Laws are supposed to made by the Congress, which is
just too busy with its child brothels, Ambien,
alcohol, and TREASON.
The Supreme Court has screwed us before. Remember how the openning arguements went well against obamacare. Roberts stabbed the American people in the back on that one — what is different now? I'm sure that NSA data they collected is still good for blackmailing him.
IMO, NONE of those black robed pseudo intellectuals belong in that magnificent building which was built to house the final arbitrators of justice in the country.
The only thing supreme about the occupants of this Supreme Court are their massive ego's and sense of grandiosity.
And how many people have already died and will die because of Roberts' corruption? There is blood on his hands and in an alternate remade America, Roberts would be put on trial for his crimes and spend his days in a small windowless cell.
And Kagan the wrong way.
Gee, didn't the press report that the Obamacare hearings went badly for the administration too?
Don't worry, the libs will support their man and Justice Roberts will find a miracle theory to allow the EPA to continue to simply line-out text of the law and replace it with text they prefer.
Then certain elements will tell us how Brilliant Roberts was by laying a trap that the EPA will fall into.
What BS. Humans emit carbon dioxide and are not net neutral. So the solicitor is lying. The administration is speaking out both sides of it's mouth as usual.
Who's got faith in the Supremes? What with Roberts tearing up the constitution and the majority declaring against carbon dioxide, not to mention their consistent support of killing the unborn.
The Latina was not at The State of The Union. All is not well in SCOTUS land. The reason given was that she was in Cal. judging a Moot Court contest.
Alternatively, it illustrates to the justices that the administration knows the congress will never legislate in it's favor on carbon lies. Faux science will not prevail in the congress
Roberts will obey his lord and master.
I don't trust 'em as far as I could throw 'em.
So now SCOTUS decides scientific issues too? Ridiculous.
"Have the oceans truly risen? Anybody? Bueller?
Predictably they have, every six hours or so, but so far they have always receded.
In case you haven't noticed...the Obama regime is busily shutting down coal powered and nuclear plants.....good luck getting much power from snow laden solar panels and frozen windmills.
With our current Supreme Court and its' ruling on Obamacare it is now "Damn the Constitution! Anything goes!"
Did it just seem that long because no one had TV or the internet?
What do sunspots have to do with the production of of electricity vis a vis coal?
What is the SCOTUS even doing hearing this? The Congress should have clamped down on the EPA by defunding it long ago. The whole agency needs to be shut down.

11 NCAA Div. III national team championships
PELLA—Frank Neu has been promoted to head athletic trainer at Central College.
A 1991 Central graduate, Neu returned to campus as an assistant athletic trainer in 2010. Leslie Duinink, Central's head athletic trainer from 2003-10, will concentrate on classroom duties as an assistant professor of exercise science while continuing to serve as an assistant athletic trainer.
"This is a very positive and smooth transition for our program," said John Roslien, director of the athletic training education program. "Frank has always been very passionate about Central College and he brings a new perspective to the role. Meanwhile, Leslie will be freed up from the day-to-day grind and can focus on teaching."
Before returning to Central, Neu served five years as an assistant athletic trainer at Drake Univ. Earlier, he spent eight years as head athletic trainer at Lycoming College (Pa.). He earned a master's degree at Drake and was a graduate assistant there for three years.
"Frank has a wealth of knowledge from his time at Lycoming and Drake," Roslien said. "Those experiences will bring a new angle to what we do and strengthen our program."
Duinink, a 1990 Central grad, received her master's degree in physical education with an athletic training emphasis from Indiana State Univ. Before joining Central's staff in 1998, she worked with an orthopedist's office in a sports medicine outreach program at a hospital in Terre Haute, Ind. Duinink was named the 2010 Iowa Athletic Trainers Society College and University Athletic Trainer of the Year.
Central has a staff of five full-time athletic trainers who works with 19 varsity sports and oversees an accredited athletic training education program of 47 students.

If Apple Bought Twitter It Would Ruin It
As if Dick Costolo is some tool who has no say in the matter.
If it were possible, Twitter should buy Apple. Or, better yet, Apple should lure Costolo or Jack Dorsey over to replace Tim Cook as CEO.
Now, we're talking.
Because, if Apple ends up in control of Twitter it might just take one of the best Internet/technology companies in the world and run it into the ground. On the flip side, sooner rather than later, you will not think I'm nuts for suggesting Tim Cook's time has come. Apple needs a fresh, young or young-at-heart visionary in place, not a supply chain rocking MBA.
Consider Twitter Music.
Out today, it's something Apple probably doesn't want to pull off, but likely could not execute as well as Twitter if it tried.
iRadio will not only underwhelm -- at least relative to Twitter Music -- it will exist to serve Apple's interests as an excellent story from gigaom explained earlier this week. Back in the day that was all good. Apple serving Apple's interests. But, under Tim Cook, that act may no longer fly, particularly when you look at Apple's track record of subpar music listening, sharing and discovery platforms.
Not without early bugs (I'm not sure what that error message is about in the top left hand corner of my screen capture and the sharing function fails to work more often than not), Twitter Music is everything iRadio should be, but will not be.
It's Twitter scratching its own back as it scratches quite a few others. Spotify and especially the superior Rdio must be thrilled. This Twitter partnership will help both companies build scale. It will get Rdio's name out there so people can so how incredibly good it is.
If the music labels are smart, they'll embrace Twitter. Twitter says jump, the music industry says how high, Dick!? Twitter can change the game here, politely letting record companies and artists know that they need Twitter and hyper-scaled platforms such as Pandora

For part (b), using the above set, we would need to verify that the five vectors are linearly independent (and it is fairly easy to see upon inspection that they are not).
Notice that
Therefore, since these vectors are linear combinations of the other three, they are linearly dependent. Removing the two vectors (-1,0,0,1) and (0,0,2,1) yields a list of three linearly independent vectors, {(2,0,1,0),(0,0,1,1),(-3,0,0,-3)} which span Z. Thus, the vectors form a basis.

For Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's directorial debut This is the End, the duo got many of their friends together to goof on themselves and the industry that made them famous. But those there's a winking sense of parody to the film, it does give you characters to be interested in, even if it's James Franco (James Franco) or Danny McBride (Danny McBride). Though perhaps a little more Caddyshack than Ghostbusters, it's still a very funny movie.
The Players:
- Director: Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg
- Writer: Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg
- Cast: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Emma Watson,
- Cinematography: Brandon Trost
- Original Music By: Henry Jackman
Plot Summary:
Jay Baruchel (Baruchel) has come down from Canada to visit Seth Rogen (Rogen). They plan to spend a couple days together as they used to be much closer, but Seth seems to be moving on, or embracing his fame. Seth takes Jay to a party at James Franco's (Franco) where much of Hollywood's young actors are hanging out and doing drugs, with Michael Cera (Michael Cera) acting ridiculous while high on coke. Seth and Jay go to get Jay cigarettes when the rapture happens, though when they get back to Franco's, it's like nothing has changed. But then a sinkhole opens up on Franco's lawn, and every one starts dying. Eventually, the only survivors in the house are James Franco, Jonah Hill (Hill), Craig Robinson (Robinson), Seth, Jay and eventually Danny McBride (McBride). Reluctant to accept the reality of the situation, they first try to get by on what supplies they have, as everyone's inner secrets, badness and truths emerge.
The Good:
- Hilarious: Comedies are always defined by one thing: do they make you laugh? And here, that's definitely the case, from start to finish there are great jokes, and with a deep bench of performers, there's always something. Baruchel is essentially the straight man of the group, but everyone else gets their time to shine. Especially Franco, who plays himself as vaguely attracted to Seth Rogen, and mocks his weirdo art sensibilities, while also bringing up some of his flops (like Flyboys). Danny McBride gets to go full McBride, and own the film for a good couple minutes (but more on that later).
- The In-Jokes are Funny: Though the trailers spoiled many of the cameos (but not all, thankfully), one of the fun things is watching people riff on their public personas. For McBride and Franco that means playing the version of themselves that people maybe think they are, and for Jonah Hill it involves playing a self-involved person who tries to put on a nice face while still being a jerk. And, of course, for Michael Cera that involves playing a coked out sex maniac. This could be a little too rib-nudging, but it never plays that way.
- All-Out: Though the movie is mostly episodic, some of the comic set pieces (like when the gang decide to do all the drugs in the house) are uproariously funny.
- Tone: The rapture does happen, and when demonic beasts show up, they're done well. As a somewhat low-budget movie, the film spends its budget on the right things.
The Bad:
- One Set: For the most part, the film is set at James Franco's house, and after a while, the claustrophobia does start to kick in. Perhaps the film would have worked a little better if it had been tighter, but after a while it does start to feel a little cheap.
- Danny McBride: Though he's mostly hilarious in the film, as he's playing the most obviously worst of them after a while you get tired of being around his character. And I say that being an avowed McBride fan.
- The Trailers, etc.: A lot of the film's best reveals would have been better served if they weren't known ahead of time. If you haven't watched any of that stuff, but are interested in the film, keep it that way.
This is the End could have been a big in-joke between famous people, but it actually works as a movie, and is hilarious. It's a nice break from the relentless CGI and pummeling action of the summer season. Rogen and Goldberg do good work as first-time directors, and it is fun seeing these actors mock themselves. It doesn't feel like an all time great comedy, but it definitely delivers big laughs.
Rating: 7.9/10
