Posted on 10/17/2012 4:33:24 PM PDT by Paradox
Creative types are thought to be more likely to suffer from mental illnesses, such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. A new large-scale study of the Swedish population helps confirm this link.
Last year, researchers at the Karolinska Institutet near Stockholm found that families with a history of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia were more likely to produce artists and scientists. They built on this evidence in a new study, published this month in the Journal of Psychiatric Research, which covers a larger population sample and a wider scope of psychiatric diagnoses...
(Excerpt) Read more at livescience.com ...
Mentally ill people are enormously creative. They are some of the best artists. Locked facilites have arts programs to help channel this gift in otherwise tragic souls.
Let their creativity serve. It's okay. But keep them away from the public treasury.
i believe this...
I think I'm gonna paint a masterpiece, and then after dinner, slice off my ear.
I've always looked upon creativity as a blossoming of the associative capacity. Schizophrenia is the same phenomenon, taken to the point where the mind can no longer function.
Creativity (in the Artsy Fartsey venue) as witnessed by me is more pronounced in the Bi-Polar folks...
I have 2 friends (both Bi-Polar) that are so talented and creative... they pretty much have to be Artists because they can't hold down a job ... when on their meds they are normal... off their meds not so much.
Both tell me the same thing that even though when on their meds they can function and interact in regular society they both prefer not taking their meds because they are on some kind of natural high and to them everyone else is blind and moving in slow motion (yeah but they are incoherent)... but they produce lots of Art... and it's pretty good
House Rules ... They must be on their meds if they want to visit or attend functions, we all agree that there are far fewer flashing lights and handcuffs that way
We hear all the time how creative gays are.
My mom is manic depressive, but not very creative.
However, my daughter is extremely creative, and i worry about her with our family history. She's into theater, singing and writing. She was an excellent flute player at 15, and was starting to win all sorts of awards.
Last year, she came down with musician's and writer's cramp (focal dystonia). It causes uncontrollable muscle movements and cramping.
It's made worse by stress. The doctors have said she fits the mold for that disorder. High achiever and doesn't have good body awareness so they just push their bodies through pain and don't know when to stop.
It makes me wonder about mental illness. Maybe they don't know when to stop. Maybe if you catch it early, you can prevent them from falling into psychosis.
That's why those yoyo's in hollywierd pull so much crap. They're useful tools to the left.
Fair enough. Unless you entertain a 'truly needy' function of govt. assistance. The mentally ill are truly needy. They're living in Hell.
I've always believed that normal and genius cannot coexist....if you are one, you can't be the other.
Good point. I don't know if that is the case, but it certainly makes sense.
It couldn't have anything to do with reefer bars and pot dens along with a few hash pubs sprinkled in could it ?
When a person pushes themselves along artistic or creative frontiers, the bipolar parts come out along with the creativity. It is the cost of being creative. If the same person did not drive themselves as hard in an artistic endeavor, their bipolar disorder symptoms would go away or be sharply reduced.
That said; think these studies are designed to create another 'victim' class; of children and adults; with 'special needs' - who need Government assistance; special 'therapies'; 'special parenting'; all designed/implemented by a caring Government.
(One that is in truth; a sick - mentally ill - Government; whereby this Government collective of Liberals; cannot come up with enough labels for the population it so, wants to control; nor enough 'ways/means' to achieve their goal.)
Would offer, as well; that any 'serious' left-wing Liberal is mentally ill. We know they suffer from a 'God-complex' - enabled by a psychotic-sized narcissism; which in turn; gives rise to their ultimately, hideous ideology and world view; along with their heinous MO's to recreate - and impose upon us - the world they see, in their sick 'mind's eye'. . .
I don't believe any of this babble I've been an artist all my life and i'm none of these things they mention but i'm supposed to believe i'm sick because i'm a creative person how the hell did i become Conservative from birth if i'm so sick in the head ?
I do concede that some mentally ill people are very creative but i don't think one thing has to do with the other but on the same hand some people who are not creative are very mentally disturbed actors can make you laugh and cry but that don't make them creative someone else writes their script and they play act to get the feeeeelings into it your feeeeeling and theirs .
This is just another notch in the belt of government doctors and socialist engineering
Hmmm I think this might be one of those A/B things where artists are psychotic or is it that they become artists because they (we) can't express ourselves verbally. Steven King scares me. I do not want to know his mind.
As for your daughter, stress seems to be a major factor. There are self help psych books on biofeedback which helps us control ourselves when we are stressed. Like the SEALS training. Controlling your breathing, heart rate, the whole shebang. Becoming aware of your body can be learned, like playing the flute. Yoga would be great. There is a 90 year old yoga teacher. Beautiful! Just an idea.
Maybe i'll get a map lol could have sworn sweden was a socialist doper country too thought i read it somewhere or maybe i seen it on some obscure tv special ...
So that's why homosexuals are so artsy and creative...
I thought that I had a very creative painting, but then Bob, one of the voices in my head, said he didn't like it. Steve, another voice in my head, said he'd pay $100 for the painting, so I sold it to him. Bob said Steve was crazy for buying my painting, so we told him he had to buy us a round. He said, "No way! Steve seems to be loaded." So we went to go to McGintys, you know McGintys.....nice little place down on Elm Street. Joe is the bartender there. It's a wonderful place. Bob and Steve can talk to a lot of people there. Ohhh, we while away the afternoons discussing politics and fashion and gardening. Mrs. Jessup said she had raised a three pound rutabaga. Steve scoffed at her and said that nobody in this part of the country could grow a rutabaga larger than two pounds. Well, Mrs. Jessup marched right out the door and came back 30 minutes later and threw a rutabaga on the table. "Now, do you believe me?", she asked. Steve had gone to use the facilities, so Bob and I inquired about her plant. "That looks like a Spanish rutabaga", opined Bob. "What's the difference?, asked Mrs. Jessup. "Spanish rutabagas are sweeter and have more fiber", replied Bob. "I don't think you know your donkey from a Spanish rutabaga", said Mrs. Jessup. I ordered a Harvey Wallbanger for Mrs. Jessup and that seemed to defuse a possibly nasty situation.
IDK. IMHO the less stress in the vunerable's life the better. College away, not such a good idea, six years taking creative courses for a four year degree, much better.
Yoga is actually highly recommended for dystonia! Her physical therapist will be teaching her a lot of body awareness. If she can play flute again, she'll be learning the Alexander Technique and the Feldenkrais method of body mapping while playing.
We've slowed her down academically. Screw the fast paced high school life. She is not in honors classes anymore, and she is taking math online. She loves taking the online class!
If you lead a relatively unremarkable, normal, stable, happy life there is little to compel or even drive you to express yourself creatively in a way that is striking and thought provoking to other relatively unremarkable, normal, stable, happy people. It would seem, well, ordinary. And, for the vast majority, that is not a bad thing.
An unusual way of looking at the world expressed in a visual way through painting, sculpture or photography is going to come from a person who is at least a little unusual, whether or not this unusualness is outwardly obvious or more inward and subtle.
What's even more unusual is the drive to even start seriously pursuing an independent, long term creative endeavor, let alone continue on in the face of little to no reward, financially or critically.
This requires a degree of drive and compulsion that, when combined with an already unusual visual, musical or literary take on things, leads to favoring people who are unusual in clinical terms.
I'm not talking about dabblers or hobbyists, here, obviously. These same factors are at work with highly inventive, driven scientists as well.
Crazy artists, mad scientists, the stereotype didn't stick because it was inaccurate. There's at least a grain of truth to it.
THE most creative people are not mentally ill, they have all their faculties well focused on problems that need solving, and they come up with creative ways to 'make it happen.'
This is just more drivel from our corrupt, lying 'scientist' community - the same one's that claim we suffer from global warming - while real science proves there is absolutely none.
Those 2 traits often go together and frequently are associated with left handedness.
Makes sense to me, I've got both traits. But I guess I was remembering back in high school there was a clear segregation between the two. People who couldn't cut it academically were nudged toward the art classes, people who were good at math and science were labelled "geeks" and told not to waste their time with art. I got weird looks from both groups, because I can't pick up on boundaries like that unless they're spelled out for me. It wasn't until the end of senior year that someone told me I wasn't supposed to enjoy my pottery class because I was too good at math and science.
Then again, I sometimes think I fit the stereotype of the mad scientist :p
Artists and atheist scientists? Dems.
Explains Hollywierd and the rest of the entertainment industry.
What's the name of Captain Obvious in Sweden?
Kaptenen Uppenbart!
Are you left handed too? As the wife of a lefty and the mother of a lefty (both creative engineers)I've come to the conclusion that lefties and righties don't think alike.
I belonged to a quilting guild at one time, and I noticed that when we were all seated at a frame together, the lefties had to be at the end, of course. I also noticed that the lefties in the group were some of our most creative sewers. They had all figured out clever shortcuts to accomplish piecing that was difficult to accomplish in the traditional way. These were methods that my right handed brain had to really struggle to copy. But, I found I could do them easily if I followed their directions step by step.
So, it dawned on me why my husband and I could never agree on how to accomplish a task. We are thinking about it from the opposite direction. So, I went home and announced to my son (who was studying for his doctorate in engineering) that he should look for a left handed woman to marry because she would be easier to get along with.
He just rolled his eyes at me and said, "I don't want to marry another engineer, and you wouldn't want me to bring home an ARTIST, would you?" He's happily married and expecting his 5th child. At least 3 of those kids are lefties too!
And my husband's left handed sister taught pottery for years.
Ambidextrous. My handwriting is better with my right hand, but I think that's mostly a matter of practice.
I agree! This is laughable, as is most of the studies of this nature - I think maybe those who 'study' this crap are
ones who are unbalanced.
I know far too many creative people who make a living using their gifts, nothing remotely wrong with them.
You clever girl. You are well balanced! I think that the reason that many lefties are so clever about figuring out methods for accomplishing things (like intricate sewing -- or my husband's inventions) is because they are raised in a world where most tools are made for right handed people.
My PhD level engineer son was not recommended for advancement to a regular 1st grade because he failed some "test" devised by his kindergarten teacher. When I inquired about this "test", I was told it was because he couldn't cut out a circle with scissors. I asked if he had right handed scissors, or left handed scissors. You know the answer.
There were 12 boys who were recommended to go to a special 1st grade where they wouldn't be taught to read in the normal time frame. Guess what? 11 of the 12 were left handed boys! Mine was sent to Catholic school where Sr. Julianne had him reading the San Francisco Chronicle by Christmas. In the spring of the year he won the Science Fair for the whole school.
and schoolchildren.
I've noted this same phenomenon in high IQ individuals. The further up the chart they are the less stable they seem.

If you are going to steal this for your restaurant, at least give me credit on the menu.
I found some Tallegio cheese today and want to try this pizza out this weekend. I've got lots of tender chive in my backyard. Just to confirm, looks like these pizzas are without sauce ... true?
Here is my version, not a pretty crust as yours and Craig's, but I tried......
I bet it tasted great. I like the tree and the sun. What were they?
Great job Paolo. I love the pasture scene!John
Here's my version using chives from the garden and cooking in a Big Steel Keg grill. For future versions, for pure functionality of eating, I think I'll chop the chives into 1/2" lengths so that the entire leaf doesn't pull off whenever it is bitten into.

Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Risk Factors
The above statements and any others in this document that refer to plans and expectations for the second quarter, the year and the future are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "may," "will," "should" and their variations identify forward-looking statements. Statements that refer to or are based on projections, uncertain events or assumptions also identify forward-looking statements. Many factors could affect Intel's actual results, and variances from Intel's current expectations regarding such factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Intel presently considers the following to be the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the company's expectations.
Demand could be different from Intel's expectations due to factors including changes in business and economic conditions; customer acceptance of Intel's and competitors' products; supply constraints and other disruptions affecting customers; changes in customer order patterns including order cancellations; and changes in the level of inventory at customers. Uncertainty in global economic and financial conditions poses a risk that consumers and businesses may defer purchases in response to negative financial events, which could negatively affect product demand and other related matters.
Intel operates in intensely competitive industries that are characterized by a high percentage of costs that are fixed or difficult to reduce in the short term and product demand that is highly variable and difficult to forecast. Revenue and the gross margin percentage are affected by the timing of Intel product introductions and the demand for and market acceptance of Intel's products; actions taken by Intel's competitors, including product offerings and introductions, marketing programs and pricing pressures and Intel's response to such actions; and Intel's ability to respond quickly to technological developments and to incorporate new features into its products.
The gross margin percentage could vary significantly from expectations based on capacity utilization; variations in inventory valuation, including variations related to the timing of qualifying products for sale; changes in revenue levels; segment product mix; the timing and execution of the manufacturing ramp and associated costs; start-up costs; excess or obsolete inventory; changes in unit costs; defects or disruptions in the supply of materials or resources; product manufacturing quality/yields; and impairments of long-lived assets, including manufacturing, assembly/test and intangible assets.
The tax rate expectation is based on current tax law and current expected income. The tax rate may be affected by the jurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed; changes in the estimates of credits, benefits and deductions; the resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities, including payment of interest and penalties; and the ability to realize deferred tax assets.
Gains or losses from equity securities and interest and other could vary from expectations depending on gains or losses on the sale, exchange, change in the fair value or impairments of debt and equity investments; interest rates; cash balances; and changes in fair value of derivative instruments. The majority of our marketable equity security portfolio balance is concentrated in ASML Holding, N.V, and declines in value could result in impairment charges, impacting gains or losses on equity securities.
Intel's results could be affected by adverse economic, social, political and physical/infrastructure conditions in countries where Intel, its customers or its suppliers operate, including military conflict and other security risks, natural disasters, infrastructure disruptions, health concerns and fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
Expenses, particularly certain marketing and compensation expenses, as well as restructuring and asset impairment charges, vary depending on the level of demand for Intel's products and the level of revenue and profits.
Intel's results could be affected by the timing of closing of acquisitions and divestitures.
Intel's current chief executive officer plans to retire in May 2013 and the Board of Directors is working to choose a successor. The succession and transition process may have a direct and/or indirect effect on the business and operations of the company. In connection with the appointment of the new CEO, the company will seek to retain our executive management team (some of whom are being considered for the CEO position), and keep employees focused on achieving the company's strategic goals and objectives.
Intel's results could be affected by adverse effects associated with product defects and errata (deviations from published specifications), and by litigation or regulatory matters involving intellectual property, stockholder, consumer, antitrust, disclosure and other issues, such as the litigation and regulatory matters described in Intel's SEC reports. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages or an injunction prohibiting Intel from manufacturing or selling one or more products, precluding particular business practices, impacting Intel's ability to design its products, or requiring other remedies such as compulsory licensing of intellectual property.
A detailed discussion of these and other factors that could affect Intel's results is included in Intel's SEC filings, including the company's most recent report on Form 10-K.
Earnings Webcast
Intel will hold a public webcast at 2 p.m. PDT today on its Investor Relations website at www.intc.com. A webcast replay and MP3 download will also be available on the site.
Intel plans to report its earnings for the second quarter of 2013 on July 17, 2013. Immediately following the earnings report, the company plans to publish a commentary by Stacy J. Smith, executive vice president, chief financial officer, and director of corporate strategy, at www.intc.com/results.cfm.

Healthy Makeovers for Your Holiday Leftovers
What are you going to do with the insane amount of delicious, calorie-bomb holiday leftovers sitting in your fridge? Eat them, of course -- but only after giving each dish one of these easy, healthy upgrades
Any vegetable that can be "candied" is always a hit at the holiday dinner table. But, not surprisingly, it's also going to need a healthy upgrade if you plan on plowing through what doesn't get polished off on Thanksgiving day.
First off, says Henderiks, scrape off the marshmallow topping, then toss the following into your blender: a cup of yams, a cup of low-fat Greek yogurt, a tablespoon of flaxseed, a handful of your favorite fruits (Henderiks likes concord grapes), and a dash of low-fat milk and apple cider.
"Between the antioxidants from the yams, omega-3s from the flaxseed and vitamin D from the skim milk, this is a pretty healthy smoothie," says Dubost. For extra, seasonal flavor, Dubost says to sprinkle in some cinnamon and nutmeg, which will also boost the antioxidant content.

There are some great ideas here, but even with ice cream I couldn't eat pumpkin pie. I've always hated it!

Mmmmm.... Leftovers. I think these ideas are super creative. Leftovers dont' really last that long in my house becuase I have so many siblings. BUT my girlfriends and I are going to have a leftover dinner party on Friday; so that should be interesting. I like the idea of Turkey chilli.

Some of these look interesting to try. Should be fun trying them out.

Very creative! I usually make sure my meal is healthy to begin with--very flavorful, perfectly cooked, and vary my temperatures and textures. Buttermilk makes mashed potatoes decadent without the fat. In my wok, I carmelize red onions in olive oil, then stir fry in blanched green beans and red pepper. I use olive oil and cajun spices, then grill my turkey (yes, even in the snow). Cranberry sauce with 100% juice, orange zest, apples, and minimal sugar. Happy Holidays!

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

In the beginning I didn't really see the full benefits of citizen science.So that project was intended to look at what are the best practices for managing house sparrows. There are a lot of different methods out there at the moment, and we really don't have a lot of research to tell us what works and what doesn't and why. So I study birds and then I also collaborate with social scientists to look at things that couple human-natural systems rather than just look at what's going on in the natural systems in isolation, because in so many contexts really what's happening is people influencing wildlife and wildlife influencing people.
A lot of the social media technologies that allow people to talk and work together really facilitate new discoveries.pollution. Communities can take charge of what's happening and make change.

He had people who were associated with these coastal communities from all walks of life collecting data on the tide mark, measurements on the tide level, every 15 minutes, day and night for two weeks straight, at exactly the same moments in time. That was over a million data points. Can you imagine? I wouldn't want to analyze a million data points without a computer. So these things were possible, but they were slow and obviously difficult.

In December 2010, Congress passed and the President signed into law legislation that freezes physicians' Medicare payments at their current levels through next year. Not only does this action break the cycle of short-term pay fixes that plagued physicians in 2010 but it eliminates the threat of a 2011 payment cut that was projected to top 25 percent according to the Sustainable Growth Rate, the formula used by Medicare to calculate annual physician payment updates. The threat of steep physician payment cuts will resume in 2012 without further Congressional action.
Medicare projected that aggregate payments to ID physicians would remain roughly unchanged in 2011. This takes into account not only the legislative payment freeze but also numerous regulatory changes that maintain payment accuracy across the Fee Schedule by adjusting the relative values of individual services.
Local ID practices may fare better or worse depending on their patient volume, service mix, and geographic location. Generally more outpatient-focused practices or those that generate significant revenues from office-based infusion therapies (or other ancillary services) will fair slightly better in 2011. Geographic location specific reimbursement rates can be found online at the Physician Fee Schedule Search.
View the specialty-specific impact analysis table to compare the ID specialty's Medicare payments with other specialties.
Congressional passage of a 10-month payment fix means that steep cuts have been forestalled but not prevented. Physicians face several years of future payment cuts beginning with a 35 percent cut in 2013. These cuts are due to the flawed formula, the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR), used by Medicare to calculate physician payments. For additional information regarding future payment cuts please visit IDSA's Physician Payment Toolkit. You can use the toolkit to contact your members of Congress to urge them to find a long-term and sustainable solution to the physician-payment problem.
Due to the uncertainties surrounding future physician payment updates, IDSA has collaborated with the American Medical Association to develop a summary of Medicare participation options for physicians. This document explains what it means to be a participating physician, a non-participating physician, and a private contractor.

Media matters, and media matter also matters.
As shown in Richard Maxwell's and Toby Miller's book Greening the Media, information and communication technologies are not ecologically benign. They leave behind plenty of residues — mountains of waste, toxic by-products that affect workers and consumers, and much else — and rearrange the materiality of the world in so many ways.

Skip to comments.Derby contenders
Posted on 04/30/2010 11:11:29 PM PDT by TBP
So who's going to win?
The bookies, who else?
We need a Triple Crown! It's been 32 years, longer than the break between Citation and Secretariat. (BTW, I was at Belmont the day Secretariat won the Triple Crown.)
The most dominant horse I've ever seen. He won the Belmont by 31 1/2 lengths! As he was crossing the finish line, the rest of the field was coming around the last turn — and he was gaining on them. He paid $2.10, $2.10, and $2.10.
As always, I'm picking the horses by their names...I like the exacta of Awesome Act and Devil May Care. Hey, it's as good as anything else!!! One year my Dad picked the Trifecta and won over $8k! It was amazing!
Of course, I have the disadvantage of not being there. I'm a paddock bettor.
Does the Delta Queen still race the Belle of Louisville from Cincinnati down to Louisville the day before Derby Day?
Keep an eye on those who run best in mud. Louisville is under a Flash Flood Watch today, this looks to be one of the wettest Derby Days in history.
Put twenty on 20.
Do horsie races ever get rained out? The rain is supposed to increase as the morning goes on.
Ice Box
they run. i doubt even many scratches if alot of rain. theres only one chance in a horses life to win this.
Awfully wet out there. Off the turf, except for the Turf Classic.
Leaning towards Awesome Act. As wide open as they come.
Super Saver and Devil May Care with big Maiden wins in slop.
Mission Impazible good 2nd in slop.
Backtalk winner of minor Stakes in slop.
Winner of first sat in fourth about four lengths back, behind a slow pace. Stayed in about the 4 or 5 path all the way around.
Off to the track. Good luck.
Sidney's Candy by 3 licks...uh links.
Super Saver. Write it down, a chosen prediction.
6 posted on Saturday, May 01, 2010 12:12:34 AM by bruinbirdman ("Those who control language control minds.")
You da man! Cool!
Super Saver Ice Box....an winning combination every environut can love.
Did you hear Borel say to two people that "I'm goinig to win the Triple Crown on this horse"? The sport sure could use that — it's been 32 years.
Super saver has the same initials as the last Triple Crown winner, Seattle Slew.
I picked him too, as they were walking, finally. Good prediction.
Almost. An excellent challenge. He could make teh otehr two races intersting, especially the Belmont (the long one.)
They're such beautiful critters. He had a kind eye.
Hard one to decide, but eventually I did pick the winner — as they wre walking to post.
I'm usually a late bettor anyway — I like to see the horses down in the paddock. The walk from the paddock is the best I can do for that on TV.
It's been 32 years since Slew and we need a Triple Crown.
I had the good fortunre to be at Belmont Park on June 9, 1973 when Secretariat won his Triple Crown.
I'll post a photo of Secretariat too.....
Big Red
A slight lead...lol
Affirmed was the last Triple Crown winner.
Thank you. He had an awful trip. Depending on who shows up that missed this dance hes either favorite or no worse than 3rd choice in the Preakness. If no new horses show (some big ones missed it due to injury)Ice Box is probably favored. I'd guess he was 5 lengths the best but that's why they call it gambling.
LOL. Congrats, you almost had it right.
(just kidding)
I almost typed Super Savior.
Obama wasn't running, was he?
Note wher ethe rest of the field is: 31 1/2 lengths behind him.
You're right — for some reason, I seem to reverse the order on Seattle Slew and Affirmed.
What's up with Eskandreya?
Left front leg. I have no idea how long.
He could haul the mail!

Sometimes inexpensive does not mean cut-down of feature-lacking. It looks like AMD's latest platform with built-in graphics core as well as the company's latest Phenom II chips can do wonders by improving computing performance by roughly two times.
For years platforms with integrated graphics cores have been considered as entry-level products not aimed at enthusiasts. However, Advanced Micro Devices is promoting its AMD 790GX core-logic as a solution for enthusiasts in budget. Surprisingly, pragmatic mainboard makers have followed the initiative and produced 790GX-based motherboards with rich overclocking capabilities. Apparently, on some of such mainboards AMD's new chips can even set speed records.
Representatives for Biostar have pointed out that the company's TA790GX2 A2+ mainboard enabled an overclocker from Japan named PcCI2minal to set AMD Phenom II 940 BE processor with 3.20GHz nominal frequency running at approximately 6.0GHz with the help of dry ice. Moreover, enthusiasts from MadShrimps web-site have managed to set AMD Phenom II chips running at 6.20GHz on DFI's AMD 790GX motherboards.
Biostar TA790GX2 A2+ motherboard in ATX form-factor is based on AMD 790GX + SB750 core-logic and features integrated ATI Radeon HD 3300 graphics core with 64MB of SidePort memory, two PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots, four 240-pin DDR2 memory slots, Gigabit Ethernet, 7.1-channel audio and a wide range of other features. In order to make the mainboard more popular among enthusiasts, Biostar added support for processors with up to 140W thermal design power and equipped its product with rich overclocking capabilities.
Obviously, hardly a lot of users acquiring mainboards with built-in graphics adapters will ever attempt to overclock their central processing units. Moreover, since the vast majority of AMD 790GX motherboards come in ATX, not microATX, form-factor, hardly a lot of system integrators will adopt them for their systems. Nevertheless, the fact that overclocking capabilities have reached the entry-level segment means that there are consumers seeking for such features even in the low-end products. In addition, it shows that AMD is greatly interested in attracting overclocking crowd to its products, which cannot beat Intel Corp.'s high-end central processing units at nominal frequencies.

Board hires interim public works director
MARSHALL – With the former Public Works Director Suhail Kanwar gone, there are some big questions ahead for Lyon County, members of the county board said Tuesday. Commissioners didn't have immediate solutions on how to replace Kanwar, they did bring up some possibilities during discussion at their regular meeting.
Kanwar submitted his resignation two weeks ago, after accepting a position working for McKenzie County in North Dakota.
At Tuesday's meeting, commissioners voted to approve Aaron VanMoer as interim public works director. VanMoer is a licensed engineer working for the county and had expressed interest in the position. In a separate motion, the board set VanMoer's pay at $33 per hour as an interim.
In the meantime, commissioners said the county had an opportunity to examine how the county organizes public works. The county departments that make up public works do need a coordinator or supervisor, said Commissioner Rodney Stensrud. However, he said, that supervisor might not have to be an engineer. Or, the county might be able to get by without a public works director, he said.
Board chairman Rick Anderson said this might be a good time for the county to consider sharing a county engineer or public works director with another county. However, he said, "The only way that's going to work is if you've got good people (on staff)."
No action was taken on the matter.
A request from the Marshall-Lyon County Library for additional funding to cover pay increases for library employees didn't meet with commissioner approval on Tuesday. Marshall City Administrator Ben Martig presented the matter to the county board.
In 2011, the city of Marshall conducted a job classification and compensation study on city employees, Marshall Public Housing employees and Marshall-Lyon County employees. The study found that 10 out of a total of 23 library employees weren't being compensated on the same level as their duties. Martig said the positions of adult services librarian and technical services librarian have taken on more work responsibilities, and other part-time employees were being paid below the study's recommended minimum.
The cost to make those changes, Martig said, was about $29,000. In February, the Marshall City Council had voted to pay two-thirds of that cost if the county agreed to pay the remaining third.
However, county commissioners didn't agree to the proposal. Commissioner Charlie Sanow said he didn't approve of the library's rising costs, or of continuing to give money to an entity not controlled by the county. Ultimately, it's the library board's decision how to implement the study recommendations, he said.
Commissioner Steve Ritter said the additional cost would be better discussed as a budget item for 2014.
Commissioners voted 4-1 not to fund the changes at this time but to discuss the issue during the 2014 budget process. Commissioner Mark Goodenow cast the vote against the motion.
Commissioners also got an update on road and bridge projects planned for this summer. VanMoer said there are 10 county projects scheduled to begin construction, ranging from safety improvements at the intersection of Lyon County Road 7 and U.S. Highway 14, to bridge replacements in Camden State Park and paving projects on Lyon County Road 10.
Concrete surfacing on a 6.6-mile stretch of County Road 10 west of Cottonwood is gearing up to start as soon as next week, VanMoer said. Later in the summer, County Road 10 will also be widened and rebuilt from Minneota west to the county border, he said. Federal funding will make it possible for the project to pave the shoulders of the road and use a style of striping that will be more durable and stay reflective when wet, VanMoer said.
Commissioners voted to authorize a water study concerning the outlet of Lake Yankton. John Biren and Balaton Mayor Del Rutz approached the board with concerns about managing water levels on the lake. After heavy rain or snowmelt events, the water tends to rise quickly and stay high, causing erosion, Biren said. It's possible that altering structures in the lake's outlet could improve flood control.
To that end, county staff and the city of Balaton requested permission for a hydraulic study on the potential replacement of a Rock Lake Township bridge on 120th Street. The study could help determine if moving or replacing the bridge, which spans the lake outlet, would be beneficial, Biren said.
Commissioners approved the study for a cost of $2,000.
Anderson called for an item to be pulled from the consent agenda for discussion. In the commissioner warrants on Tuesday's agenda, he said, the cost of publishing the county's delinquent tax listings in 2012 seemed "a little high." Interim county Auditor/Treasurer E.J. Moberg said Lyon County paid about $17,000 to publish delinquent taxes twice in the county's official newspaper and in the four other newspapers in Lyon County.
State statutes require that delinquent tax listings be published two times in the county's official newspaper, said Lyon County Attorney Rick Maes.
Moberg said it might be possible to negotiate a different rate as part of the county's next contract with the Lyon County newspaper association. However, Lyon County Administrator Loren Stomberg said he wasn't sure if the county signed a contract on the matter, or just approved the designation of an official newspaper.
Commissioners approved the warrants but asked Stomberg to look into the matter further.

I like Rockshow better than Wings Over America. Both were compiled from the same tour and contain alot of the same footage. EXCEPT.....WOA has songs that Rockshow left out like Lady Madonna, Long & Winding Road, My Love, Picasso's Last Words, Call Me Back Again, Blackbird, Richard Cory.....hmmm...I guess every song that Rockshow left out....lol. It also has backstage, travel and other interesting footage. So, I' gues what I'm saying is that WOA is a great tour documentary and Rockshpw is great if you want to experience the next best thing to a WINGS concert. Maybe Paul should release BOTH as a double DVD.
I think WOA was produced as a TV special back around '79 or '80.

Ticks Invade the Trails - Page 4
Tick types
It can also help to know which types of ticks can transmit disease. Lyme disease, babesiosis and anaplasmosis are all transmitted by blacklegged ticks, also known as deer ticks; these ticks are smaller and lighter in color (tan) than wood ticks, the larger, dark-brown creatures you are probably more used to picking off your clothing.
Wood ticks aren't disease free, though: also known as the American dog tick (east of the Rocky Mountains) or the Rocky Mountain wood tick (in the Rockies), they can carry and transmit RMSF and tularemia. RMSF can also be transmitted by the brown dog tick, which is slightly smaller than the American dog tick. The brown dog tick can also complete its entire life cycle indoors, meaning RMSF cases are not isolated to warm months. Tularemia, STARI and ehrlichiosis are transmitted by the lone-star tick, identifiable by the white spot in the middle of its abdomen.
