Did you know?
Each cheetah is covered in about 2000 small, round, dark spots.
There is no mammal on Earth that explodes into a run faster than a cheetah. Usain Bolt broke the record at 100 metres in 9.58 seconds. A cheetah can do the same distance in half the time. Not even Bolt in a Maserati could get out of the starting blocks faster.
This is a cat with a greyhound chassis, as wildlife behaviourist Richard Estes so vividly describes it. Tall and distinctively elegant as an athletic supermodel, cheetahs are made for speed.
Its foreshortened face allows larger nasal cavities and greater oxygen intake. Its long legs carry it over 9m per stride at full sprint and its dog-like claws are like athletic cleats, digging in at every stride. Its long heavy tail helps it balance and turn at full speed.
A cheetah can accelerate up to a maximum of 112km/h, but can only maintain that kind of sprint for about 300 metres before its body temperature shoots up to dangerous levels.
It swats at its prey's hindquarters, tripping it up, then lunges for the windpipe to strangle it. Once it has its kill, and rested a little to get its heart rate down, the cheetah will eat until its stomach is tight as a drum. Unlike cheetahs and lions, it won't return to the kill, leaving the remains for the jackals, hyenas and other predators.
Learning how to hunt at explosively high speed requires a long apprenticeship, which is why cheetah youngsters stay with their mothers until they are at least 15 months old.
Once cheetahs were widespread all over the world, but now their stronghold is in southern Africa, notably Namibia, with around 3000. South Africa's population is small but stable at around 850, with less than half in protected areas and the rest free-ranging.
They prefer the wide-open spaces of grasslands and open savannahs, but have been found to do quite well in riverine thickets in the Karoo where they were recently introduced into certain private game reserves.
Here they stalk their prey, much like leopards do, pouncing at the last minute to bring down prey as large as kudus.
In fact, they do well in most places where there are no lions – their traditional mortal enemies.
You could see them in the wild or at a number of highly respected wildlife sanctuaries.

How to get here
Your best chance at seeing a cheetah in the wild is in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park or at a private game reserve where cheetahs have been introduced, like Samara in the Eastern Cape.
But there are several respected sanctuaries where breeding programmes have been established to breed cheetahs and rehabilitate wounded cheetahs to release them into the wild. They include Cheetah Outreach in Somerset West near Cape Town, the Ann van Dyk Cheetah Centre near Pretoria, and the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre near Hoedspruit outside the Kruger National Park.
Best time to visit
Cheetahs can be seen any time of year. In winter (June to August) it might be easier to see them in the wild because there is less vegetation.
Tours to do
For guaranteed cheetah encounters, head for De Wildt or Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre, or Cheetah Outreach. Some, like the latter, offer a chance to watch cheetahs do their sprints (something you'd be very lucky to see in the wild).
You could also do cheetah tracking at the Mountain Zebra National Park near Cradock, or Samara Private Game Reserve near Graaff-Reinet.
Get around
In a game reserve, it's best to be in a vehicle (cheetahs aren't alarmed at cars, whereas they will generally retreat if they see a human on foot).
Length of stay
It's hard to guarantee a sighting in the wild, so stay for as long as possible. If you go to one of the above-mentioned sanctuaries, set aside several hours.

martyrant - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - linkI don't own any of the recent OCZ drives, but all I hear is horror stories. I would imagine focusing on fixing your product rather rushing more to market would be a better strategy when your brand name is getting hurt to the point most people don't even consider OCZ an option for a reliable SSD anymore (some of the original vertex and vertex 2 drives were great). Reply
Jaegs - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - linkI've had 4 of these drives in RAID-0 as my boot drive on my gaming pc for about a year now with not a single issue or crash related to them.
There now you've heard *almost* all horror stories about them. Reply
Qapa - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - linkI would imagine posting random rumours without any real info is... (you choose the ending).
In other words:
1 - there were bsods in sandforce (all brands using SF!);
2 - ocz helped fixing sandforce's problem;
3 - didn't hear about anything afterwards;
So, either I didn't hear and you know more than me, in which case not indicating any hint or fact just makes your post rather... st..id. Or there wasn't anything else, which makes it even worse!! Reply
Demon-Xanth - Monday, March 05, 2012 - linkMy experience with OCZ drives involves having a barefoot and martini drive decide to brick themselves in the firmware. The only recovery option would have been a professional service. This isn't an occasional BSOD. This is "the drive disappears from BIOS". Although I'm still using both, I'm leery about going OCZ again.
I own two OCZ drives. I've had problems with both. Not a good track record. Reply
Proxy711 - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - linkI'm using a 120gb version I've never had any issues. I bought mine during the BSOD "outbreak", like always you rarely hear from the people having no issues just the people that are having a hard time.
I've had the drive for 6 months and never experienced any BSOD even on old firmware that didn't have the sandforce crash fix. Reply
JNo - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkActually I agree with martyrant - all I've read on forums etc is negative reviews on both OCZ drive reliability and OCZ customer service. For a hard drive, reliability is more important than speed and I certainly wouldn't get one - OCZ fix or not, the damage is done. And no I can't be bothered to back it up with a scientific peer reviewed study - it is what it is i.e. anecdotal evidence and impressions. But they tales of users' frustrations resonated.
Why risk it when there are other vendors? Admittedly with even Intel, Crucial and Samsung having issues at one time or another, it is virtually impossible to find anyone with a clean record (OWC?) however OCZ appears worse than most. Reply
josephjpeters - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - link"OCZ appears worse than most."
Only because they sell significantly more SSD's than most. You need to keep that in perspective.
Failure rate is a percentage. Can't compute a percentage without accounting for sales volume. Reply
Filiprino - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkBut if the percentage is done over OCZ returned drives on OCZ total drives instead of OCZ returned drives on all drives of any brand, then it's all OK.
I read somewhere that 3% of OCZ sold drives were returned, while Crucial was at a 2% rate and Intel was at 1% rate, more or less. Reply
josephjpeters - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkI think I know which report you're referring to. There was a report that used data from 2010. Data that is 2 years old is irrelevant now. We're approaching Vertex 4 now. This time, OCZ owns the controller.
I'm just making the point that no one on any message board or forum knows the real failure rate (including myself). Just because you read that X drives failed does not necessarily correlate to Y failure rate. You don't know the size of the population. Reply
lyeoh - Sunday, March 04, 2012 - link2010 data is not irrelevant when even more 2011 data shows high (or even higher) return rates:
It shows they're not doing enough to make things better, or that they can't. We don't have to know the exact failure rates (some returns might be customer fault), because when even the mechanical hard drives have half the return rates on average, and the other SSDs are much better, we can be reasonably sure that the SandForce drives have serious quality problems.
You shouldn't assume other people are ignorant till they prove it. Filiprino said "rate" and used percentages, so I don't know why you're going on about "X drives failed". As for size of population, it's a large french retailer. And the results sure seem to agree with the number of anecdotal complaints out there (a large enough number of anecdotes = data).
You may know of the report but did you actually read and understand it? Reply
menting - Friday, March 02, 2012 - linkOCZ doesn't sell significantly more SSDs than most.
They are ranked #5.
First is Samsung, forgot #2 and #3, 4th is Micron, and 5th is OCZ. Reply
josephjpeters - Tuesday, March 06, 2012 - linkOf the fabless SSD players they are #1. When you design an SSD for an unknown system configuration, it's much harder to make every drive compatible.
Samsung and Toshiba make the SSD's for Apple, but it's a lot easier to make those drives reliable because you know exactly what the configuration is going to be. Reply
MrSpadge - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkUsing my Agility 3 since 3/4 of a year now, no problems. Shout loud enough and enough people with similar experience will eventually speak up. No saying that there were no problems, but this whole OCZ bashing is geting rediculous. Reply
LB-ID - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkIt's interesting to see how many shills OCZ has begun employing on popular message boards these days. I guess it's easier and cheaper to pay for people to try to quash the facts rather than spend the money to engineer their products properly in the first place.
The fact is that OCZ's entire "3" line of SSDs (with SandForce controllers) suffered from crippling firmware issues for over six months before even a partially successful fix was finally released. Even with that, many users still suffer from BSODs. OCZ's response then, as now, was to deny the issues, or to try to push the blame elsewhere.
Call feedback like this what you will. My purpose is to make sure that people are aware of what they're getting into if they deal with OCZ. With so many better, more stable and reliable products out there at comparable prices, there is simply no reason to deal with a company like OCZ. Reply
MadMan007 - Friday, March 02, 2012 - linkYeah, because users who have been registered for years are all shills.
Also, it wasn't *just* OCZ drives that had a problem it was *every single* Sandforce-based drive regardless of brand. It was a *Sandforce* issue not an *OCZ* issue. Idiots blame OCZ and think it was their fault and that only OCZ drives were effected, then there are the rational people... Reply
LB-ID - Friday, March 02, 2012 - linkCertainly it affected all SandForce-based drives. The differences were that OCZ took over SIX MONTHS to resolve the situation, and in the meantime engaged in a pattern of obfuscation and blaming their user base for the issues. Just be honest and own up to the situation...for this customer at least, I don't ask for much more than that. Reply
androticus - Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - linkI recently built a Win 7 desktop and used an Agility 3 120 as the main drive. It came with the .17 bios revision (one users reported was stable) and the system has worked perfectly for me. Granted, I don't use it that often, but it works very well. I also have an older Vertex 2 in my MacBook, and that has also worked flawlessly now for over a year of frequent use. But obviously some people have had issues... Reply
jimbo2779 - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkAs others have already stated, you only ever hear from the people having troubles, rarely from those without issue.
I bought the OCZ Vertex 3 while the drives were apparently having troubles with BSODs and have been happy using it since. I have never had a drive related BSOD pre-fix or since. Reply
josephjpeters - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - link10 months with my Vertex 3, no problems.
OCZ sells 130k+ SSD's every month. Keep that in mind. Reply
RaistlinZ - Thursday, March 01, 2012 - linkI'm still happily chugging along with my 120GB Vertex 2, Reply
estarkey7 - Friday, March 02, 2012 - linkI had a Vertex2 in my laptop and the drive was screaming fast! It only lasted for about two weeks before it would stutter every five minutes before the drive was no longer recognizable.
I have worked as an Electronic Technician earlier in my career and I know some stuff does fail, no big deal.
After receiving a replacement and going through the drive partitioning, duplication and alignment process - all was well, for about two weeks!
I dumped it on ebay for half of what I paid.
I don't care how fast a drive is, it has to be reliable. It seems as if they did very little audit on the product as they figured that we love OCZ so much we'd be happy to perform that duty for them with our invaluable data.
Just ordered a Crucial M4 128GB for a desktop system boot drive and think I will have terrific performance and reliability if NewEgg's forums are to be believed! Reply
Laststop311 - Saturday, March 03, 2012 - linkThe only Sandforce 2281 controller containing SSD that is 100% stable is the intel 520 series SSD that Intel made custom firmware for that took over a year to be finished.
Much better off getting a crucial M4 256GB for 310 dollars now at tigerdirect. Plus the crucial m4 has the best 4k random read performance of all ssd's currently on the market. Random 4k read is what makes you boot up faster and load programs faster. It's really the most important spec and Crucial dominates that statistic. They are also near the top for random write performance too. Reply
Owls - Tuesday, March 06, 2012 - linkIs extra.* BSODs and other issues are included free of charge
*Must purchase a Samsung or Intel 320 drive Reply
Crazyeyeskillah - Monday, March 12, 2012 - linkI have 2 vertex 3's in raid 0 and have had no issue with anything, other than reminding myself to make reasons to get up from my computer since i don't have the waiting time to go pee pee or smoke some rock.
I've never had a crash, bsod, or any other issue related to the drives. some people are really stupid and brick their drives all the time. they put them into sleep mode, they unplug and plug them back in on different boards, and so on. Stupid people = stupid results.
I did have a bad VERTEX LIMITED awhile back and they next day aired me a replacement from the other side of the planet. It literally took 16 hours to get here from Taiwan. I'd like to see the shipping check on that one. If it breaks, they fix it, stop your bitching. Just buy an intel, oh wait, it's out of your budget range. . . Reply
AnandReader1999 - Friday, March 23, 2012 - linkHelped a friend of mine spec out a system just before the Vertex Series 3 hit. He got a good price on a Vertex 2. Lastest bios, etc.
It lasted a couple of months before the first BSOD. Continued updates for Bios (and Motherboard, etc) and still had the problem. Several drive replacements later and multiple (Can't see it even in BIOS issues) and he got fed up and replaced it with the latest Intel SSD drive. Company he bought the drive from told him the same thing he found out the hard way. Massive problems with SSD's. He's using all top end components, Intel, Asus, etc. Nothing overclocked.
He had so many BSOD's that he made an image and was back up in running in record times. Thank god I had him spec out a standard 2TB enterprise level drive for all the games/data. Just the core system on the OCZ 240GB Vertex 2. Reply
darrellj48 - Thursday, June 21, 2012 - linkI just wanted to debunk the bad stories I have read about these SSD's. I have three of them one has been in use for about a year and the second and third ones for just over 6 months. All three have performed flawlessly since day one. The first one (60Gb) is in a Toshiba Qosmio 18.4 inch i7 Gaming Laptop as an OS drive and the others (360 GB) as an OS/APP drive, and a (120 GB) Photoshop scratch drive are in an AMD XF i7 graphics workstation. All three of these drives have been outstanding from the time they were installed. Though SSD's are not generally recommended as scratch drives I just did this one as an experiment. So far it has performed well and I can't see any reason not to use them for this application. However it has only been in use for just over six months now. After about a year or so I will have a better idea of how good it is for this kind of use so far nothing to complain about. Reply

I decided to do something different with my Turkey this year by cutting into pieces prior to cooking.
I started with 3 turkeys
Separated the legs, thighs and wings, but kept the breast whole. I removed the back bone portion from the breasts, but kept the breast bone.
This also made it easy to brine in the refrigerator, since I was able to use smaller containers to soak the pieces
24 hours later…
I placed the pieces on racks after brining and placed them back in the refrigerator for another 24 hours so the skin can dry out.
Onto the smoker on T-Day, I added the wings an hour later so they wouldn't over cook
The cooking was done just few min shy of 2 hours
Dinner is served
It was the juiciest Turkey I've ever had
The breast meat was perfectly cooked, since I was able to take it out when it reached 160 internal temp. And the wings were not overcooked, since I added them later and the dark meat was smoky and perfectly done under two hours. The cooking temp ranged between 300 to 350 and I was using the SFB.
I would say this was a very successful experiment. I mean cooking three turkeys in one smoker under two hours and have them come out perfect is a testament of its own

This is a very bad bill. Insurance companies and drug companies DO NOT NEED TO BE SHIELDED in this way. There is no justification for such a blatant power grab by these industries.
The limitation of awards for pain and suffering for medical malpractice law suits is needed as part of parcel of any national health care reform act in order to keep enough physicians in business to provide the needed care.
But this bill goes far beyond this needed action by including such things as defective product suits in "health care" related suits. Bad Idea!
I can not support this bill.
KathymarieMarch 5, 2011, 3:31pm (report abuse)
Noneconomic damages should be limited. This bill places a cap of $250,000 on such damages. Punitive damages are also capped by this bill.
Donna Baver RovitoMarch 14, 2011, 10:47am (report abuse)
Nothing in this bill would limit the quantifiable damages which should rightly be paid to a legitimate victim of medical malpractice.
Patients would STILL be able to collect unlimited damages for medical care, lost wages or a lifetime's worth of lost POTENTIAL wages, home care, devices specially outfitted vehicles, home alterations necessitated by an injury, even child care, house cleaning and lawn care if needed.
Personal injury lawyers would have everyone believe that limiting NON-economic damages to $250,000 would mean that injured people can ONLY collect $250,000, but that's a lie.
Specially trained actuaries can calculate quantifiable expenses that should be covered - but personal injury lawyers know that REAL "jackpot" justice lies in NON-quantifiable items like "pain and suffering", so they're able to convince a jury that someone's injuries are worth hundreds of millions of dollars - really, it's all just a way for them to increase their 40% cut.
Sam DeshayesMay 31, 2011, 7:43pm (report abuse)
Limiting non-economic damages is not going to prevent those who have suffered from medical malpractice from collecting a reasonable amount on their suffering. They can still collect an unlimited amount on their economic quantifiable damages.
Also, if the medical malpractice is truly outrageous there is the option of punitive damages of up to twice the amount collected in economic damages.
DeidreMay 31, 2011, 11:11pm (report abuse)
I support this bill. First, the 3-year cap on the statute of limitations is fair: this is a reasonable amount of time to come forward about malpractice. Second, this bill would reduce insurance premiums, saving us money, even if it only is $35.
Jobany GarciaJune 2, 2011, 2:37pm (report abuse)
I support this bill and i believe it will be very cost effective to our economy. I believe the statue of limitations for 3 years is appropriate. This bill will provide prevenative care with no co-pays and help cap out of pocket costs. Lower Premiums and overall help a lot of people.
Katie RobertsJune 2, 2011, 11:24pm (report abuse)
I think this bill would be great. It puts limits on things that should be limited and it will help people to save money. It will in the long run help everyone. It will lower premiums so you aren't paying as much. It will make healthcare more affordable I believe.
Tonya GregoireJune 3, 2011, 12:35am (report abuse)
I support this bill because I support caps on the medical field. Without caps health care wouldn't be affordable. Doctors wouldn't be able to afford insurance if there were no caps and there would be fewer doctors because of this. This bill will lower the cost of medical care so it's more affordable to the average family. I support the statute of limitations that a person only has 1 year after discovery of the injury to file suit because I don't feel it should take longer than that. I believe this bill will do good for many people in many different ways.
Valerie RittenbachJune 3, 2011, 4:40pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because I think there needs to be restrictions on damages awarded in health care lawsuits. I agree with many things within this bill including the statute of limitations for beginning a lawsuit, not placing limitations on the amount of damages for economic losses, there is a maximum cap for contingency fees, and that punitive damages can be awarded. I think that with all lawsuits, there needs to be limitations on the amount of damages that can be awarded. I think by having limitations, people are still getting what they need and deserve, but aren't getting outrageous money judgments that gives them a "payday" as opposed to allowing them to reasonably recover. I'm not sure this will really lower the cost of health care for families, but restrictions are necessary and if it does save money for families, then that is good.
Nickie DawkinsJune 4, 2011, 3:40pm (report abuse)
I support this bill. Anything that would help lower health care costs is a good idea. I also think this bill will help limit the abuse of the health care system, and stop a lot of the fraudulent injury claims. I also think the 1 year statue of limitations is fair, and plenty of time to file an injury claim, considering most people file a claim soon after the injury occurred.
Crystal ThoresonJune 5, 2011, 4:43pm (report abuse)
For the most part I oppose this bill. I do feel that the 3 year statute of limitations is fair, but I do not agree with the limit of damages being capped at $250,000. I feel that this protects healthcare providers and insurance companies from paying the fair amount of non-economic, economic, and punitive damages. I also feel that medical malpractice would be lessened if there was a higher risk of damages awarded to an individual, therefore lessening the cost of insurance and state aid to help people that have had life changing injuries.
Joyce PettisJune 5, 2011, 6:51pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because it would help to reduce healthcare costs by setting conditions for medical lawsuits, provides a 3-yr statute of limitations to file a claim for injury, and limits non-economic damages to $250,000. I believe these are steps in the right direction in the improvement of healthcare and helping to stop the improper use of the system.

I think any help in lowering the cost of health care would be good. Healthcare can be so expensive, so even a little bit of help is favorable. I don't see an issue of damages being capped at $250,000 because if there was not a cap, people would go crazy filing suits for millions and it can be way controversial.
Kelsey BrehmJune 5, 2011, 9:14pm (report abuse)
I fully support this bill because the cost of health care is, in my opinion, ridiculously high! Anything to help lower it would be amazing. I recently had to sign up for my own health insurance through work and can barely afford to make bills plus pay the amount required for just myself. For a necessity, it shouldn't be so challenging to afford. This bill helps patients receive health care at a lower cost with a higher chance of receiving compensation in negligence claims. It aims to ensure that the patients of a liability claims will receive more in damages than the attorney representing them. I think that is very important since the amount the attorney will make generally comes from the patient. This bill is directed towards two very costly services and aims to make them affordable.
Aimie SinjuJune 10, 2011, 12:46am (report abuse)
I support this bill because I think anything we can do to lower the cost of health care is beneficial to all. The statute of limitations of three years is reasonable, while the limit for non-economic damages is $250,000, patients can still collect reasonable damages for medical expenses, lost wages, etc.
Kristie WSeptember 7, 2011, 7:22pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because I think something has to be done to lower the cost of health care. Also, I feel that the statute of limitations set is fair.
I feel that even a little lower cost of health care will be beneficial.

Setting liable limits on liability cases infridges the right of every American because the government does not have the right to put a price on the worth of someone's life.These matters should be left to the purview of the court system.
Ashley BSeptember 10, 2011, 1:00pm (report abuse)
I agree with portions of the bill and I also disagree with portions of the bill. I do not think there should be a limit of $250,000 on noneconomic damages. What if the damages equal more than the $250,000? It seems unfair to the deserving party. I do agree though those punitive damages would only be awarded if it is proven clear and with convincing evidence.
Torey LynnSeptember 10, 2011, 6:31pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because we need to restrict the amount in damages that can be awarded in malpractice lawsuits. Many people state they are opposed because they fear the cap would include economic losses on the victims who need that. That isn't the case. They want to cap the amount in damages for pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. They would still be entitled to unlimited damages for lost wages, potential lost wages, any medical care needed due to the injury, any remodeling of the home to make it accessible for the injured, anything like wheelchairs and handicap accessible vehicles, etc. The statute of limitations seems more than fair, you should be filling immediately after the injury or knowledge of the injury which seems like it can very easily be done in that amount of time. Restrictions are necessary to protect the doctors and the real victims and prevent false suits. It will also help lower the cost of healthcare to families making it more attainable to all.
Nicole VasapolliSeptember 11, 2011, 3:09pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because for one it will help reduce the frivolous medical lawsuits that are raising the cost of healthcare. It will eliminate financial incentives for people filing these lavish lawsuits. So, people who are wronged will receive fair and timely reimbursements. Sadly, malpractice insurance rates have forced good doctors to close their practice. It will improve both patient access to healthcare services and medical care. It will also ensure patients are fully compensated and that these respected doctors will stay in business.
Cassie LynnSeptember 11, 2011, 5:17pm (report abuse)
I support this bill and I think it is a step in the right direction for stopping frivolous medical malpractice suits. I do however feel opposed to putting a cap on damages that can be awarded. I feel this way simply because I believe that our justice system and our judges can make fair and reasonable decision in cases. I think every case is different and in most cases $250,000 or less would be sufficient. But, I also feel that there are times and special cases when a $250,000 cap could hurt someone who deserves more. That is just my opinion, but otherwise I support this bill and think it is a great step in the right direction!
Nicole ImholteSeptember 11, 2011, 8:22pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because the major provisions would benefit patients by awarding injured patients noneconomic damages up to $250,000, but awarding UNLIMITED economic damages. It would also establish a cap on attorney's fees which benefits the patient's recovery monetarily. As a parent with a child with a disability, I rely on specialists and do not want them to become few and far between because they cannot afford malpractice insurance due to frivolous law suits.
Kris MontoyaSeptember 11, 2011, 10:00pm (report abuse)
There are certain parts of the bill are great and other parts needs more revising. One part allows the court to restrict the payment of attorney contingency fees. I feel less people will be able to afford an attorney. The only way a lot of the cases end up in front of a judge is because the attorney knows they will get contingency fees. The bill also denies punitive damages in the case of products approved, cleared, or licensed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or otherwise considered in compliance with FDA standards. This is another section that I don't agree with. Over the years there have been several drugs that have been approved by the FDA that have later been found to cause certain aliments in person taking the medication. Granted there is an inherent risk to all medications however you trust that the FDA would not approve a drug that could potentially cause more harm than good.
Susanne MyersSeptember 11, 2011, 10:25pm (report abuse)
I support this bill anything at this point is better than nothing. Better patient care, health care system share information. Speedly law suit claims resolved. Court supervision to protect against conflicts of interest to help maximize patient recovery. Putting limits on costs, so health care is not so costly.
Vanessa JohnsonSeptember 11, 2011, 11:17pm (report abuse)
I do not agree with this bill at all. With respect to the contingency fees, wouldn't you want to be paid for work and time you put into any job? This bill takes that away. No one wants to work for free. How can we expect lawyers to take cases they won't be paid for if they don't win? Another thing I have a problem with is putting caps on pain and suffering. I feel that there should be compensatory punishment put on health care practitioners who perform negligently on their jobs.
Karen RiegerSeptember 12, 2011, 1:01am (report abuse)
I do not support this bill. I do not agree with capping a doctor's mistake at $250,000. This bill would ignore patient safety. If this bill would pass, it would take away all accountability of doctors and hospitals.
Sarah LeeSeptember 22, 2011, 5:27am (report abuse)
I agree with the bill in terms of limiting the amount of money attorneys collect on awards. The bigger the judgment, the more the client will receive to recover from the injuries suffered because of malpractice. Attorneys have a bad reputation of being ambulance chasers. This bill could alter the perception that attorneys really want to help their clients heal instead of wanting to line their own pockets with money. This bill could help reduce the cost and length of litigation.
Elizabeth HolderNovember 29, 2011, 11:38am (report abuse)
I agree with this bill. While it is an impossible task to set a monetary value on a person's pain and suffering and non-economic loss, there has to be a limit on punishment. Especially, considering that the cost of increased liability insurance will be passed along to consumers making health care less affordable for everyone. When researching this bill, I saw that many opponents were claiming that this bill goes against the Seventh Amendment of the Constitution, but I do not see this as a valid argument. The right of a jury trial is not being taken away. This bill only places a restriction on the amount of money that potentially emotionally driven people are being allowed to award. Lately, opponents have also started to argue that this bill violates the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. However, this bill's opponents seem to have ignored the Eighth Amendment, which sets forth that there should be no "excessive fines imposed." U.S. Const. amend. VIII.

Obviously something needs to happen in this economy, and I support this bill, and feel like if this can help save money and put limitations to certain things like attorney fees, or how long someone has to sue, then that is a great idea. Now when I go and visit my OB there needs to be a female in the room, to protect the doctor and help with their insurance premiums. Really something needs to be done, and I will support this bill!
Igor VDecember 2, 2011, 10:13pm (report abuse)
I have read this bill twice for a class that I am taking in my quest to receive a Bachelors in Paralegal Studies diploma. I know my knowledge as a second year Paralegal student is limited. But here is what I have to say.
In good faith, I simply cannot support any bill that clears the FDA from being sued even after they have made terrible mistakes. Recently the FDA decided to unapproved a drug that has been used for a very long time for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, the drug is called Avastin. Here is what the FDA website statement says "Avastin used for metastatic breast cancer has not been shown to provide a benefit, in terms of delay in the growth of tumors, that would justify its serious and potentially life-threatening risks." And this type of thing happens all the time, the FDA should be held accountable for what they do and don't do.
I may be wrong, but this bill would also clear drug companies from being sued, if their products had been approved by the FDA.
Steffi NennDecember 3, 2011, 4:50pm (report abuse)
I support this bill. I support that there is a cap on the amount awarded. I think this allows for more clarity; with a cap it sets a "worst-case scenario" for the awards. I really like that is also sets limits on the amount the attorneys claim. The statute of limitations seems fair. I think this bill offers boundaries that are needed, and will be value added.
HannahDecember 4, 2011, 2:11pm (report abuse)
I support this bill as it will help lower medical costs. Something has to be done about the cost of health care and I think this will definitely help. Patients will still receive fair compensation if they are injured, and although it is hard to put a cap on damages for pain and suffering but I think it needs to be done. Patients will also receive better care. I would much rather have my doctor give me the care I need than give me inadequate care because of the excessive fear of malpractice suits.
TaylreDecember 4, 2011, 5:10pm (report abuse)
I truly support this bill. The health care in our country is outrageously expensive, and some actions need to take place. I think this bill will be a step in the right direction for lowering costs of health care services. I feel that capping the statute of limitations to three years for a medical malpractice claim is very fair. I am also in favor of capping awards for damages. Replacing joint-and-several liability with the fair-share rule makes perfect sense, and does seem very fair. Overall, I think this bill would benefit most Americans.
April MDecember 4, 2011, 11:00pm (report abuse)
I support this bill. I would hope that it would help curb health care costs as they have become much too expensive. A three year statute of limitations is very reasonable. Injuries will still be compensated to the degree of the defendant's fault and establishes a sliding scale limiting attorney contingency fees, this means more would go to the injured party, not to the attorney. Although this bill may not be the best for every situation that arises, it is a starting point to deter frivolous lawsuits and provides boundaries in an attempt to eventually reign in healthcare costs.
Tracey JacksonDecember 5, 2011, 2:34am (report abuse)
I support this bill,Healthcare is far to expensive, especially when you are a single mother and my work does not offer benefits. I feel the 3 year statute is fare and liability should be base on the percentage of responsibility.
carolina13(logged-in user) December 7, 2011, 1:04am (report abuse)
I support this bill. This bill caps the non-economical damages but does noting to the economical damages a patient can recover. A patient can still recover an unlimited amount of damages for actual economic losses in a lawsuit. The non-economic damages compensate injuries and looses that are not easily quantified by a dollar amount. For example; physical and emotional pain, distress, loss of enjoyment or loss of consortium, they all are non-economic damages.
I also think the statute of limitations of 3 year is very reasonable. It would speed the process of resolutions of claims. I think this bill would help stop the vicious cycle of the insurance companies and it will make health care more accessible to everybody.
Meka613March 1, 2012, 12:31pm (report abuse)
I support this bill because healthcare now is ridiculously high! And any amount of money that a family can save would be a plus. I also think that the 3-year statute of limitations for medical malpractice claims, with certain exceptions, from the date of discovery of an injury; is especially acceptable. I think healthcare for Americans should be affordable period!
Troy ArnoldMarch 2, 2012, 10:01am (report abuse)
I suuport the bill, because of the rising costs of healthcare and the ridiculous amounts, that people can get when they win a claim. There is a cap of $250,000. I like that there is a limitation of 3 years after the injury or 1 year after the injury was found.
Becki EmerfollMarch 2, 2012, 10:18am (report abuse)
I support this bill. Healthcare costs are out of control in this country and these claims are one of the reasons why. Putting caps and statute of limitations on these is a good place to start to lower the cost of heathcare to individuals. When a doctor is sued a lot of times the case is dismissed but the cost to the doctor is around $25,000. That cost is kicked back to the public.
Kimberly KrupkaMarch 4, 2012, 12:02am (report abuse)
I support this bill because it's protecting Health care, insurance companies, and companies who use FDA approved products from people suing for unnecessary amount of damages. By putting a cap on punitive, I think it will lower the amount of malpractice and other law suits. There are too many people out there looking for a free money, so they decide to sue every medical clinic they come into contact with for malpractice. When companies use FDA approved products, they are not expecting those products to be defective in anyway. What if, the Largest Medical devise company has a recall on one of their FDA approved devices or prescriptions, 100 people sure for 1 million dollars a piece. If there is no cap on punitive damages this company could probably go under, owing $100 Million.If this company goes under; thousands of different medical devices or prescriptions would no longer be available. What if this company made Hundreds of life saving drugs? How will people get their medication?
Corisa UrbanMarch 4, 2012, 9:34am (report abuse)
- I am not in favor of the bill because I think non-economic damages should be allowed to exceed $250,000. In some severe cases, for a victim of medical malpractice who suffers a life altering injury, $250,000 is simple not sufficient. Examples of life altering injuries include extreme disfigurement, sterility, physical impairment, severe pain and suffering, blindness, incapacitation, and loss of a loved one. However, other than this element, I agree with the other components involved, and that the bill should be enacted but with a $2,000,000 cap-and even this is truly a conservative compromise!

I fully support this bill. I believe there should be restrictions on damages rewarded in in any form of health care lawsuit. If there is no cap people will be suing hospitals and clinics like crazy. As far as I'm concerned people are money hungry and will do just about anything to make a dollar. I agree with many aspects of this bill including the statute of limitations (three years) and there is a maximum for contingency fees. In the long run I believe this will really lower the cost of health care for families.
Jena NeumillerJune 3, 2012, 6:39pm (report abuse)
The main reason why I support this bill is because it would make each party of the lawsuit liable only for the amount of damages that are directly proportional to each party's percentage of responsibility. This seems fair. H.R. 5 seeks to limit the amount of punitive and noneconomic damages that juries can award, shorten the statute of limitations, and restrict the recovery of attorneys' fees in medical liability cases. I feel that this bill would work out for everyone, helping all to an extent and not favoring anyone. H.R. 5 would enable a plaintiff to recover his or her full economic loss, but it would limit a plaintiff from recovering more than $250,000 in non-economic damages; this is good because the plaintiff would be receiving what he deserves but not in excess that is unnecessary. H.R. 5 also would establish a fair share rule that apportions damages based on a defendant's degree of fault. Hopefully one day meaningful medical liability reform will become a reality.

I oppose this bill. How about we let the courts decide the amount of damages that should be awarded. There are individual's who may in fact be entitled to more than the $250,000.

Anything that can help save us money in this country is a good thing. I am all for lowering co payments and or out of pocket expenses when it comes to insurance benefits. Insurance company's make a lot of money as it is. I believe there should be a limit as to how much a person receives as a result of malpractice or a case in which someone was injured by another party. What that amount is is not for me to decide though. As I stated earlier if it will help us save money for medical care then I am all for this.

I believe that this bill would be beneficial in the overall picture of things. It attempts to lower cost of health care by eliminating frivolous claims that have no merit. I also agree with the statue of limitations that is imposed for when a claim can be brought. Lastly, I agree with the idea on how the damages would be awarded specifically involving a lawyer with a contingency fee.
THSeptember 16, 2012, 9:59pm (report abuse)
I support this bill for the most part. I believe that 3 year statute of limitations is more than enough time to come forward with your claim. I also agree that setting a cap for non-economic damages would be more than enough money in most situations. I also like the idea of decreasing the cost of healthcare would be great since it is very expensive and many people have to decide to go without so they can afford the other things they need in life. My problem with this bill comes into play when they start dictating who you can and cannot sue. If a medical professional commits malpractice while volunteering, I don't believe they are any less responsible for the damages than if they were getting paid. Volunteer medical personnel should not be protected from being sued, they should just do their best when volunteering as well as when they are getting paid.
Katie BurnsSeptember 17, 2012, 12:09am (report abuse)
I think that this bill would be good. It is attempting to lower the cost of health care which would be good for everyone. I think another good thing is that they would be setting a cap for how much money would be recieved due to damages. As long as this number is up there I think this would benefit a lot of people so that they could get more than they would even need. This is also a good bill for our elders, everyone would benefit from this bill not only our elders but anyone who seeks medical attention which is everyone in the world. At some point something is going to happen where you need to go to the hospital or someone in your family does.
Kristina AndersonDecember 6, 2012, 1:57pm (report abuse)
I support this bill for many reasons. First of all, it would reduce insurance premiums and in this economy I know we all would like to save anything we can. Secondly, the 3-year cap on the statute of limitations is more than a reasonable amount of time to come forward about malpractice. Thirdly, legitimate victims would still be able to collect damages. Lastly, this bill would improve the efficiency and timely manner of healthcare.

Overclocking i5-3570k "just a little"
I've been thinking of overclocking my new i5-3570k (Z77 mobo and an extra CPU cooler). Now, this is something I have never done before but I've been told it's simple. However, whenever I try googling for a step-by-step guide, what I get is some kind of hardcore YOU CAN REACH 5.0GHZ guides which seem to go out of their way to get those final few hertzes out of it. What I'd like to do is to overclock just a a little, without much fuzz, maybe from the stock 3.4Ghz to 3.8 or something like that, so that the temperatures don't rise much and the fan doesn't need to spin 100% all the time. I'm aware that the difference isn't that much then, but I figured that this sort of thing would be good for a first-timer.
Does anyone have a good source for this kind of absolute beginner's not-so-ambitious guide?
It's very simple actually.
Go into the BIOS
Up the CPU multiplier one or two notches.
Stress test it with Prime 95
Repeat untill you are either satisfied or see significant problems. Just be patient, and it will all be fine.
However, if you are not patient, or accidently screw something up in a major way, check your Motherboard's manual on how to do a CMOS reset. It will most likely not happen that your PC can not POST (and my current mobo actually does a cmos reset in case it won't automatically), but it's nice to have this one precaution in place.
See here for official RPS help.

Thanks, I had forgotten about the RPS post.
So does this mean that, when doing only modest overclocking, one doesn't really need to dabble with the voltages and such? Just up the multiplier, test, up, test, up etc until it isn't stable OR you meet your target?
If you shelled out on a quality motherboard, it's best to use the auto overclocking feature relevant to the motherboard's UEFI, like this:
If you don't have auto overclocking:
Without much knowledge it's easy to get lost when overclocking. While you won't fry your hardware - motherboards have fail safes in place if you do something crazy like change voltages to 2v for the cpu - you will end up spending hours and not making any progress. Since you are randomly changing values, a good suggestion that I took to heart in my early overclocking days is:
to keep a legal pad and pencil next to the PC recording every value you entered.
after rebooting, start testing with Prime95 and note the temperatures via Core Temp.
If the system fails ad restarts, mark the settings entered as failed (note down the temperature at the time of the crash, you can do this by enabling logging in Core Temp) and start over with new values.
This way you can get a "feel" for what works in your hardware configuration and what doesn't. From there, you can reach a satisfactory overclock or (when asking for help) better articulate how far you are from reaching your ideal overclock in tech forums like [H]ardforum or Xtreme systems.

Auto overclocking is bad. Avoid it like the plague.
Edit: I actually watched part of that actual video now, and it's actually quite amusing the way that actual idiot is actually setting things up. He actually puts actual intake fans at the top of the actual case.
He actually uses actual words like actually or actual a lot as well.

However, dabbling with voltages is not all that hard. It does, however, require a lot more work and patience:
Start out with stock CPU multiplier and the current voltage. When the system becomes unstable, simply up the voltage one notch, like you would with the CPU multiplier, and see if it has any effect on stability. If it has, continue overclocking.
Do note, however, that upping the voltage has a much bigger effect on heat production then upping the multiplier has (Due to physics - Upping the volts raises heat exponentially), and your system draws more power if you go that way.
Alternatively, if you left CPU Voltage on "Auto" all the time, and you found your favorite clock settings, you can also lower the voltages (figure out which voltage that was with CPU-Z) untilll your system becomes unstable, and then up it one notch (Auto tends to overestimate the voltages).

Hi Guys,
Not sure where I would post this but just recently when you search modo in Google or trying rto click on our website through Google Search Engine it doesnt go to modocom.ca
It goes to some forbidden url thing.
Heres link for Google
Click on modo* | Brand Strategy + Design
It just started to do this would any experets here have any idea why?
The google link looks ok, so the problem must be on your site - your index file might have been tampered with. The divert appears to swing into action only if the inbound request is coming via a search engine, easily detected. (I tried it on bing and yahoo with same result). All 3 links go to forbidden(dot)4pu(dot)com - obviously a spam site or something similar.
I would guess that your site has been hacked and your index file has been tampered with, so you'll need to change all your access details immediately, and then you'll have to start the clean up. If you're not responsible for managing the site, then speak to whoever is.
There's probably a lot more I could say here, but it's a start.
I don't know how much this helps, but I only experience the redirect if I enable JS (for Google, rather than your site).
Be sure to also check your .htaccess file for unauthorised changes.
Be sure to also check your .htaccess file for unauthorised changes.
Your site has been hacked.
While it might display normally while visiting it directly, malicious code activates when viewed through a search engine.
Usually this code resides in PHP files in a eval(base64_decode()) function.
The best way to take care of this is to go to a backup of the site which doesn't have this, and restore it. There's no telling what damage was done within your files and databases.
You're running a very old version of wordpress, so this is no big surprise. Older versions have vulnerabilities that hackers can take advantage of.
Good point about the old version of WP. I didn't realise you were using WP. Once you have your site cleaned up, you might try installing the Wordfence plugin (search for it in the 'add new' plugins control panel) - it has some nice features and among many other things, it generates warning emails when plugins or WP need updating.
You may have some link in your headers ,etc. That usually is the case. Edit the index file and see whats in there. If there are any weird links then remove them.
Backup all file, download to PC then scan virus, delete all file on host the reinstall these file, if your site is still harmful, change the hosting!
Download viruses to your PC? IMHO, that's just NOT a good idea.
Instead, have your host run a maldet scan on the 'nix-hosted website. That will find (and often correct) malware. However, do that after CHANGING AND strengthening your passwords.
Thanks everyone, I was hoping not having to reinstall Wordpress but looks like that may be my only option I've changed much of the code to remove code which I noticed was not suppose to be in there but still no luck.

FORMER skipper Jamie Sutton is returning to Otley.
The ex-Harlequins, Rotherham and Stade Domontois player led the first team at Cross Green in 2010-11, making 17 appearances and scoring six tries, which did not quite cancel out his seven yellow cards.
However, work commitments as a building surveyor then took him to the Midlands, where he featured for Sutton Coldfield.
Flanker Sutton, 29, who also captained Stade Domontois for two seasons, will be joined at Otley by another member of their 2010-11 first-team squad in loose-head prop Jason Moss.
The former Leeds Carnegie front-rower was part of a formidable pack at Bradford & Bingley, who were nevertheless relegated from National League Three North last season.
He played for Otley four seasons ago while on loan from the Bees, having previously played for Otley Saracens, and also signing for the Cross Greeners is prop Chad Harris, who was part of the Ilkley squad that won Yorkshire Division One and the Yorkshire Shield last season.
Another player who tasted glory in 2013-14 and is testing himself at a higher level is lock Jack Smith, who played for Yorkshire Division Four champions Old Otliensians.
Otley might have lost prop England Under-20 prop Paul Hill back to the Yorkshire Academy, but one coming in the opposite direction is fly half Ben Wood.
Three players have also been signed in the backs, including centre Tom Barnes from Bradford Salem, who also represented Otley last season.
Also putting their names on the dotted line are winger Kristian Sharples from Old Brodleians and centre or full back Andy Watson from Macclesfield.
Meanwhile, hooker Harry Wales, who was on the bench for Otley in May's Yorkshire Cup final against Wharfedale, has been promoted to the first-team squad from within.
The eight newcomers, plus Wales, compensate for the loss of not only Hill, but lock and former skipper Simon Willett to Wharfedale, where he joins backs coach James Doherty, and fly half Mark Ireland to Darlington Mowden Park.
Otley will step up their pre-season campaign on Saturday by defending their Roundhegians Tens title (1pm start) – they defeated Baildon in last year's final – before they travel to Lymm on Saturday, August 23.
Meanwhile, Otley Rugby Union Club have announced that there will be no increase in the price of season tickets for the new season.
Membership costs £50 and season tickets an additional £70 for under-65s and £30 for over-65s.
If no season tickets are purchased, then gate entry is £5 for under-65s and £3 for over-65s.
Under-18s will pay a subscription, depending on their age and status, to the treasurer of Otley Zebras for coaching and kit.

ITAR and Printed Circuit Boards (Part 2).Tuesday, July 24th, 2012
In part one of this series we discussed the purpose of ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) and the government agency responsible for it's oversight and enforcement. We also talked about what items are covered by ITAR through category 21 of the USML (United States Munitions List) and what the potential penalties are for violations. In this posting we shall talk about who ITAR applies to and the registration process.
Why do we have to register for ITAR?
Registration provides the United States Department of State necessary information used monitor and regulate defense items that are manufactured, imported and exported. It is important to point out at this point that (more…)

Razer Announces Haswell-based Blade, Blade Pro Gaming Notebooksby Vivek Gowri on 5/30/2013 5:00 PM EST

IanCutress - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkMy Dell M4400 is using a T9400 C2D + Quadro 1700M, about 75W total and kicks out a lot of heat due to lack of turbo modes. While already quite thick, I need the battery slice for a total of 130WH just to get a few decent hours of battery life while on travel, so no idea how they're going to manage here. The 900p TN panel is the main killer though; I got this M4400 because of the 19x12 screen (and the price). Moving out of this needs 1080p or 1440p like the KIRAbook. Reply
axien86 - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkIt's time to start using new AMD Jaguar Kabinis 15-20 watts APUs that run cool and long instead of these overheating Haswell + Nvidia combos. That alone will cut the price by 50% and sell multi-millions instead of being a small selling "boutique" PC. Reply
Jaybus - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkThat would also cut the performance in half and force them to compete with HP, Dell, Asus, etc. It's the other way around. They wouldn't sell multi-millions....they would sell none. Their market is for those willing to pay for a laptop that can actually play high end games, something the AMD APUs cannot do. Reply
RAWRscary - Tuesday, June 18, 2013 - linkThe problem is, 765M isn't going to play high end games. It's going to play games on low to medium settings. You're paying over 2k to play games on medium settings. Reply
MrSpadge - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkThat's a totally different class of performance. Such machines will exist and there's a large market for them - but that's totally unrelated to this Blade R3. Reply
n13L5 - Monday, June 03, 2013 - linkThe GTX 765M will do a lot better with the lower resolution. Its not really that strong.
The GTX 680M in my M17x couldn't even hack max details in many of last year's games at 1080p.
If you look at the mobile GPU charts at notebookcheck, you'll see this 765 isn't even close. Reply
QwaarJet - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkVery interested in that 14" Blade, you're right, nothing else out there really comes close to matching this much power in such a thin package. Hope it's a high quality 900P panel, looking forward to your hands on. Reply
QwaarJet - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkJust realized it's as thin as my Vaio Z (SVZ), very impressive. Reply
ViperV990 - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkThe GTX 765M appears to have roughly twice the rendering horsepower but the exact same amount of memory bandwidth as the outgoing GTX 660M. Is that right? Reply
JarredWalton - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkNot quite twice the compute thanks to higher clocks on the 660M -- it's more like 50% faster GPU, same bandwidth. Reply
Meaker10 - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkBut get's back up to 2x with the boost clock ;)
Performance is on a level with the outgoing 670MX.
Also the GTX660M and GT750M are both GK107 based with the 760M being GK106. Reply
ViperV990 - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkI'm looking at 768 cores @ 850+ MHz for the 765M vs 384 cores @ 835 MHz for the 660M, or twice the cores at roughly the same clock speed. The numbers are from the 700M article. How did you arrive at the 50% faster estimate? Reply
JarredWalton - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkSorry -- was thinking 760M vs. 660M, not 765M. Doh! Too many numbers. Reply
ViperV990 - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkNo worries.
I do remember the DDR3 variants of GK107 being severely bandwidth-limited. Hopefully it won't be as bad with the 765M.
Anyway, if the 14" Blade somehow manages to keep thermals in check, the next Edge will be very exciting. Reply
tipoo - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkI agree, although I wouldn't buy one, I'm quite interested in how that fares. That much battery life, that thin, with that much power packed it? It sounds too good to be true.
It also makes me wonder why even a basic discreet GPU can't be shoved into the 13" rMBP. Reply
nevertell - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkBecause then it could be worth the price. Reply
Spunjji - Monday, June 03, 2013 - linkIt could be, they just don't wanna. ;) Reply
DigitalFreak - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkFor that price, the base model should be shipping with a 1080p IPS screen and 256GB SSD. Reply
Inteli - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkHonestly, I don't see why people want 1080p on that small of a screen. IMO, the resolution's too low to scale well, but too high to be used unscaled. I think the 1600x900p screen is fine, though I'd rather see a 16:10 aspect ratio. I agree with the IPS and the 256GB SSD, but not 1080p. I appear to be in the minority on that, though. Reply
Winterblade - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkYou mister are a gentleman and a scholar, until windows learns how to use correctly the high PPI panels (the way iOS and Android does) I would happily keep de 1600x900 resolution at this size of display, also totally agree with both Vivek and you IPS and a larger SSD is a must in this price point.
The only other thing that bothers me is the weight, I've been spoiled by sub-4 pound systems too long to take a step back, maybe next generation :D
I'm a proud user of a Vaio S13 Premium (2012, core i5 IVB, GT 640M LE) and I couldn't agree more about how sad is that ultrabook effectively killed the real powerfull AND portable machines, thanks for giving me hope again Razer :-) Reply
QwaarJet - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkHaving used a 1080P screen on my Z (SVZ) and a 900P on my wife's Z (Z2), I'd be perfectly happy with 900P as long as it's a GOOD panel. Would put less strain on the GPU gaming at native resolution as well, seeing as though it's a solid mobile chip, it's still lacking compared to the desktop siblings. Scaling resolution never looks good if it was 1080P and had to drop for performance reasons. 900P with AF/AA on a 14" screen, sounds good to me.
The only thing that has me worried is if Razer decided to build the perfect notebook for me only to crush me with a sub-par panel. Eagerly awaiting Anandtech's hands on! Reply
Gigaplex - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkSpeak for yourself. I happily use 1920x1200 on a 15" laptop with no scaling and would love an unscaled 14" 1080p screen (although would prefer 16:10 ratio). Reply
Inteli - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkI don't see where I was speaking for someone else or implying what other people think besides what appears to be correct, in saying that most people want to see 1080p on a 14" panel... Reply
rwei - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkDang, blast from the past. I still have an A8Jp sitting in my closet. Reply
Inteli - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkI just might buy that 14" Blade. It's certainly powerful enough for an on-the-go laptop for gaming. Only things that worry me are:
A) Possiblity of a glossy screen -- can't stand glossy screens.
B) Windows 8 -- This is easily remedied, but just the thought worries me. You can go on and on about how windows 8 isn't so bad without a touchscreen, but you probably won't change my mind (as if I'd listen to some random person's thoughts on the internet anyways). Reply
Notmyusualid - Sunday, June 02, 2013 - linkDitto that - My M18x's glossy screen bothers me on a very sunny day.
And as for Windows 8, there is some things to like, (I virtualize, to test Linux Distros & configs, so as not to upset live networks systems with a possible non-working config, and Hyper-V is now my favorite for this).
But in the end, as a gamer, I didn't like all those extra open network-sockets, due to tiles accessing the network, that I never cared for to be on my system in the first place. And despite the hype on the performance benefits, I noticed a 10% decline is single-threaded performance when using my SuperPi as a quick & dirty benchmark. So no, Win 8 had to go.
Win 7 is my favourite, and that is that.
As for this Blade Pro, if I didn't play my games in all their max details, and expect ridiculously-high frame rates all the time, OR, if I gave up gaming (which I should do, far too much time wasted, ha ha), I'd buy this computer in a heart beat. No joke. So come on, make with a matt screen option, and some cool new resoultions, and I might even buy one for my mom. I reckon she'd love it. Reply
Spunjji - Monday, June 03, 2013 - linkStart8 is the best investment I have made in a long time. Reply
warezme - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkIf the only difference between the 14 and 17 is the screen resolution and the 17 isn't more than 1080P, I would say the 14 is the better deal even though the res. is to low. Reply
nunomoreira10 - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkthat´s alot of power, maybe a bit to much.
ideally they would have gone with a 37w quad core and a gtx760m, but if they went with the overclocked versions, im sure tests have shown to be possible and safe, it´s going to be an interesting review Reply
VivekGowri - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkIt was a 37W quad, I corrected myself on Twitter but not on here. My bad. Reply
gxtoast - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkI don't need a gaming laptop, just one powerful enough to easily run Cisco, VMware and Microsoft labs. If the 14" was actually a 15.5" with an IPS touch panel, and I could put 16GB RAM in it, I would seriously consider it.
If they also optioned it with GT4 graphics on a higher spec'd CPU and removed the dedicated graphics, I reckon they would be able to cater for a whole other market. Might have to see what DELL bring out in Haswell. Reply
HisDivineOrder - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - link"Based on the marketing materials and videos provided, it seems like the intended market for the 17" Blade Pro has shifted towards creative professionals – game designers, filmmakers and video producers, graphic artists, even musicians. The change makes sense, given the similarities the Blade Pro has to another favorite of creative professionals, the dearly departed 17" MacBook Pro. Razer has also added Switchblade apps for Photoshop, Premiere, Maya, GIMP, and other popular photo, video, and audio creation programs to leverage the unique abilities of the SBUI panel."
And they're trying to sell a laptop with a TN panel to artists and people using photoshop professionally? Really? Are they stupid? Reply
lmcd - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkGiven how lame of a deal it is already (given that they could even just lift the board from the 14 inch and drop it in the 17) the TN panel should be a dealbreaker. Reply
ananduser - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkSo many macusers have been using macbooks for PS for a long time before Apple recently introduced IPS in their recent "retina" gear(the only macbooks with IPS). So no, they are not stupid. These kits being aimed more at gamers first, TN is desirable over IPS. Reply
WaitingForNehalem - Thursday, May 30, 2013 - linkIs it too much to ask for a Windows laptop that isn't a Mac clone? Sheesh, it is as if original designs are impossible to come up with. To be clear, I hate Apple. Reply
dsumanik - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkNot all bad, but definatley not all good.
shit rez.
TN panel.
Yes, fps will be higher for gaming at this rez but hey you can always turn rez down...can't turn it up.
apple had the same laptop years ago....wheres the innovation?
(no im not a fanboy apple sucks and they are finally going down thank god)
As a sonsumer im not buying anything low DPI anymore. Its old tech sold at next gen prices.
Love the black chassis, love msata standard (upgradeable) disk, badass trackpad. Reply
VivekGowri - Saturday, June 01, 2013 - linkLook at the thermal envelope, look at the size of the chassis, that tells you all you need to know. This is innovation in engineering, the panel is just a spec (and 1080p IPS 14" LCD panels actually don't exist). You can do 1080p TN or 900p IPS, but not both unless you either upsize to 15.6" or downsize to 13.3". Reply
Xinn3r - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkPrice aside, this is seriously one drool-worthy machine,
I mean, for those specs, in a body that thin and light, who wouldn't want one? Reply
Karamazovmm1 - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkYou know what would make this the killer notebook and instant buy?
IGZO display, high quality 3200*1800 panel
Thunderbolt, so I can dock this babe and get all the ports and more when Im at home or work
16GB wont be unpleasant at all as well.
In the end I think it will really shine next year with maxwell, broadwell, DDR4, thunderbolt 2.0 and more IGZO panels availability Reply
Krafty1 - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkThunderbolt port? Will they please put a Thunderbolt port on the 14 inch model so I can give them my money?
(in case you're wondering why I want a Thunderbolt port, if you want to live stream video into a computer, you still only have one option: Firewire...which no one puts on computers anymore...but you can get a Firewire/Thunderbolt adapter) Reply
uzun - Friday, May 31, 2013 - linkCan you buy the 17" with 16GB of RAM? As I recall they void the warranty on the older R2 blade if you open it up to add more RAM. 8GB isn't really enough for Premiere Pro etc. Reply
ReiszRie - Sunday, June 02, 2013 - linkwas planning to get the Retina MBP 15" but am now considering the 14" Razer Blade though it has a number of drawbacks IMO...
- the lack of an IPS screen, TN screen sure has better refresh but marginally so, most gamers would not be able to notice the difference and those who does, wouldn't be gaming on a 14" laptop
- 128GB SSD for the price they're asking for.
- relatively short battery life, battery life will most likely be int he 4hr mark in practical real world usage.
- lack of a SD card reader
- fingerprints prone casing
- large bright green razer logo on outer shell makes it unsuitable for professional use (a black tape over it solves that problem though)
- green backlit keyboard illumination is uneven and the colour makes it all the more obvious Reply
n13L5 - Monday, June 03, 2013 - linkI take no issue with the 1600x900 display at 14 inches. I think that's a well chosen resolution for the size and even more so for the GTX 765M, which is a bit short on power for 1080p in many games.
1600x900 will make for a very useful improvement in fps and / or less heat and noise.
A TN panel doesn't sound great, as you mention. What I keep trying to find out is the refresh and if it can render 3D.
Further, the interior shot looks a lot like the thing uses 2x mSATA SSDs.. any comment on that? did you open it yourself? Reply
timurus - Friday, February 14, 2014 - linkAre you kidding me? - Shipping only US and Canada. What the hell. I can't buy it neither in Moscow nor in Paris. This is crazy. A company like razer can't open 2 retailer stores in the biggest cities of the world. Oh come on - fire your marketing managers immediately. Stupid stupid stupid stupid Reply

Companies faced with significant exposures to commodities are experiencing unprecedented challenges as a result of volatile and rising commodity prices fuelled by population growth, climate change and a growing prosperity. This in turn is having a direct impact on company performance and many companies who have issued profit warnings over the past few years have found this is partly being driven by rising commodity prices.
Market data indicates that this rise in commodity prices is more structural and will remain going forward, and companies therefore need to consider fundamental changes to their business model. This article discusses why organisations might consider commodity risk as a significant issue and sets out factors to consider when looking to set up a Commodity Risk Management ('CRM') function.

Did you know?
Mahatma Gandhi was first married at the age of 13.
Mohandas Karamchand (Mahatma) Gandhi was born in British-ruled India in 1869 and died in the Union of India in 1948. The rite of passage for humanitarian hero Mahatma Gandhi took him from an India that was ruled by the British Empire to a South Africa weighed down by prejudice and injustice. Ghandi spent 21 years in South Africa, and it is here his political views and leadership skills were developed.
Ghandi came to South Africa in 1893 after accepting a position at an Indian law firm. He witnessed the atrocities committed against, and recognised the enforced subordinate nature of, the Indian community in both his home country and South Africa. He first used non-violent civil disobedience in South Africa during the Indian community's struggle for civil rights.
After experiencing some of the discriminatory laws against non-whites first-hand, he realised the task that lay ahead was huge. But he firmly took many social injustices in both hands and tried to resolve them in a non-violent manner through mass civil disobedience, using satyagrah, the philosophy and practice of non-violent or civil resistance.
He believed in 'respectful disagreement' and urged the South African Indian community not to resort to violence, but to make their voices heard by peacefully protesting against discrimination. Those who protested were beaten or jailed, and the ruthless manner in which the government controlled the Indian community made international headlines. This led to negotiations between Gandhi and then-prime minister Jan Smuts.
Time magazine named Gandhi the Man of the Year in 1930 and in 2011, and also named him as one of the top 25 political icons of all time. Gandhi was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize five times between 1937 and 1948, making the shortlist only twice, in 1937 and 1947. He was again nominated in 1948 but was assassinated before nominations closed, and the committee chose not to award the peace prize that year.
A global humanitarian icon, Ghandi is said to have been a unique character in South African and global history – Mahatma (which means 'great soul' in Sanskrit) could take on strong colonial forces without a weapon to hand, but was also petrified of the dark. This didn't stop him from battling against – and triumphing against – some of the darkest forces in modern history.

Thanks in great part to the explosion at the hospital, Robin and those she cares most about are in dire straits. Even as she remains hard at work, she must face and make life-altering choices. Is Patrick involved? What about Jason? How will the explosion affect his condition? Will Robin choose wisely? Either way, does this situation cause her to make some changes in regard to what she wants in her own life?
At the same time, Maxie hopes she can stop Matt from getting drunk with Liz. Will she succeed?
Speaking of imbibing too much alcohol, Michael finds an unauthorized party at the lake house. Imagine his surprise when he encounters a very drunk and very out of control Molly. It would appear that TJ is the reason behind Molly's behavior, but instead of her pointing fingers, she defends him. Why?
Meanwhile, Jason asks Spinelli for a favor. Will Spinelli be able to accommodate Jason? We can't spill all the beans, but this much we can share. Sam is keeping a secret. Will what she's hiding be revealed?
While on the other side of Port Charles at the benefit gala, a sniper takes a shot at Dante. Was the bullet really meant for him? Either way, Sonny manages to save Dante's life, but Sonny believes that the Zaccaharas are behind the shooting, and he plans on getting a quick and deadly payback. Dante works hard to prevent a new mob war. Will his efforts pay off?
At the same time, Kate takes the attempt at Dante's life very hard. She is visibly shaken. But as Olivia worries about the emotional state of her cousin, Kate takes matters into her own hands and makes an important decision about her future. Does she go so far as to break up with Sonny! If so, is he going to allow her to simply walk away?
Then, as Alexis arrives home furious, Carly and Johnny get to know each other a bit better. However, it's not long before Shawn interrupts them. Are they caught with their pants down? Check in to General Hospital this week and find out.

The Crap We Missed – Tuesday 7.9.13
Welcome to Tuesday's The Crap We Missed which only has one shot from Instagram and you'll never guess that it's Rihanna or that she's wearing a bikini. You were thinking Kendall Jenner bending over and pretending not to see the paparazzi, right? I know my special guys. We've also got Candice Bergen, who's apparently been Dick Cheney this whole time, Gerard Butler and the time soft serve got herpes, and Cameron Diaz, who's transformation into Magda from There's Something About Mary is complete.
Whoa Bruce Jenner, easy, I'm sorry about that Kendall line up there *wets pants*,

|All-Out Haul Out
|Part 2: Scraping the Hull and More
probably be surprised at how few supports are necessary to safely stabilize
your vessel once she's back on terra firma. The experience of the
yard staff plays an important part here, since over-blocking the hull
unnecessarily covers hull surface that will need attention sooner or later.
In some cases blocked areas will need to be prepped and painted in relative
haste after the boat is lifted again, so the fewer, the better.
