CHESTERFIELD boss Paul Cook has warned his side to be wary of the ex-factor when they travel to Accrington Stanley tomorrow.
The former Stanley manager returns to his old club for the second time, having endured a miserable visit to the Store First Stadium last season when Accrington claimed a 1-0 win.
Tomorrow's fixture will also see Leam Richardson return to Stanley for the first time since he quit as manager in the summer to become Cook's assistant at Chesterfield.
In addition, the Spireites are expected to have former Reds Jimmy Ryan and Gary Roberts in their line-up.
"Obviously with myself, Leam and some of the players going back it will always be a good game on their calendar because they'll want to beat us," Cook said.
"But it just spices the game up and that's good.
"I've been lucky enough to see Accrington a couple of times lately. I saw them against Scunthorpe and I saw them at Burton on Saturday.
"They've got a lot of good players, they're a very powerful team. They've had some smashing results on the road."
Cook hopes Stanley will not end up in danger of relegation, having slipped to third bottom.
"There are good people at that football club, they're a really good club and I certainly hope that they don't get drawn into the relegation battle," he said.
"I wish James and his staff every success because it is a difficult club to manage when you're in with clubs like ourselves.
"We're patently and obviously a bigger club but that will mean nothing on Saturday, we're going there to win a football match.
"This club haven't got a great record at Accrington in previous seasons so we go there fully focused."

hatter_india - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkFantastic review but I expect no less from AnandTech. But there are a couple of bloopers:
1- OMAP 3630 is third mobile chip to use 45nm process. First is of course A4. But second is Samsung's Hummingbird, a chip that the korean company designed with help of Intrinsity. This chip is found in Galaxy S or its variants. Samsung is the same company that also tweaked A4, which incidentally is fabbed by Samsung. Too many coincidences ;-)
2- A comparison to PowerVR SGX 540 found on Galaxy S would have been interesting as according to Samsung SGX 540 is almost three times more powerful than SGX535.
3- Droid X should have also been compared with Galaxy S or any of its variants like Captivate, Vibrant etc Reply

Goty - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkDoes AT have any plans to review any of the Galaxy S phones? I just picked up a Captivate on Sunday and I'd love to see how it stacks up. I just ran the Neocore benchmark and got around 55 FPS, which speaks well of the GPU, but I'd like to see results from the other tests you guys do. Reply
Brian Klug - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkHey Goty,
We definitely have plans to do reviews of all of the Galaxy S phones we can get our hands on. I'm working on getting them as soon as possible ;)
I'm also pretty excited to explore that SoC and compare.

ltfields - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkGuys, another gold standard review. I may not be able to pick up an X because I'm still under contract with another carrier, but the reviews are riveting. Keep up the excellent work! Reply
homebredcorgi - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkWho do we have to blame for the "Droid" moniker? Verizon or Motorola?
I have a Nexus One and continually get asked, "Is that a Droid?" or "Does that run Droid?" to which I usually reply yes and let sleeping dogs lie…but seriously, why name it so similar to the operating system? And then why make "Droid" a series of phones if your first phone is just known simply as "Droid"?! At least call it the "Droid One" or something to differentiate from the series of phones....
So now we have the Droid, Droid Eris, Droid X, and will soon have the Droid 2 which are all phones in the Droid series, all running on various builds of Android. Yeesh. Could they have made that any more confusing?
All in all, the Droid X looks very nice. I personally think the original Droid had all the flair of a TI-82 calculator (ugly as sin in a blocky retro way), but the Droid X seems to have modernized its looks. Still not sure if I would want a phone that large though…. Reply
metafor - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkVerizon owns the rights to the "Droid" trademark from Star Wars. So they decided to capitalize on that and name their whole line of Android phones "Droids".
I think it's kinda cheezy but hey, it's selling and is something that people can focus on. With the army of phones coming out every week, it's difficult for the average person to keep up. It helps if they can just go to a store and ask for a Droid. Reply
strikeback03 - Tuesday, July 27, 2010 - linkActually they have only been using Droid on the high-end phones, the Devour and Ally were not Droids.
There is also rumor of a special edition Droid 2 coming with R2-D2 on the battery cover... Reply
lewchenko74 - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkThe best, most comprehensive review of the Droid X Ive read so far. Thank you.
Just got to wait until it arrives in the UK unlocked now, but personally I think Im going to get the Droid 2 instead with the keyboard.
I am amazed at the pace the smartphone market is moving at. Im 1yr into a 2yr contract with a HTC Hero. It feels like an antique! These 2yr contracts really are a ball and chain.
It also seems like HTC is starting to lag behind Samsung and Moto now in terms of processor and features. Sense also seems a little 'old' compared to other UI layers (or maybe thats just me).
Disappointed that it only runs Android 2.1 when 2.2 is now out though.... That would be like Apple releasing iPhone4 running OS3.2 whilst saying OS4 is out there too but not quite available yet! (I guess Apple actually did that though with the iPad ;-) ) Reply
mvmorr01 - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkWhat app are you using for those CPU utilization graphs? I did a quick search and couldn't find it in the market. Reply
Brian Klug - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkIt's an application called "SystemPanel" which I found a while back. If you turn logging on, it'll give you some very cool graphs of battery use over time and CPU utilization over days even. Produces some very cool results when I do battery life testing.

Thanks again chief!
<3 Anandtech reviews! Reply
WaltFrench - Saturday, July 24, 2010 - linkLinpack is a 90s-era benchmark that performs a specific matrix solution. As much as possible, all floating point adds and muls.
I've tried in other forums to find an app, prior to 6/1/2010, that actually uses Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting. The particular method works best to find complex patterns within large data sets; that's great for my statistical investment models and for a lot of other stuff. It's strongly suggestive of performance on weather simulations, quantum chemistry, etc., stuff that no sane person would attempt (today) on a smartphone.
Others claim Linpack scores around 40 on overclocked ARM chips with Froyo (the JITting being fabulously helpful for highly repetitive benchmark code). I got ~35 on my iPhone. These scores are ~ 13X–16X what the Linpack author quoted long ago for his 486 (/487, I presume).
I don't know a lot about graphics but presume 3D work that calls for lots of floating point Add/Mul work would get routed to the GPU, so I think these scores are of extremely limited relevance to any smartphone app I can envision. Reply
vshin - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkWhere are the antenna attenuation tests? No weak spots? Reply
Brian Klug - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkThere's definitely attenuation tests in there, and weak spots. The bottom of the phone as expected causes a 15 dB drop. It's on page 14: http://www.anandtech.com/show/3826/motorola-droid-...

must admit my sisters samsung galaxy s does look nice (compared to the HTC desire or Sony X10 xperan {big one} ) And it comes with an 1500Mha bat so should last more then an day use (the G1 i had was horrid on bat life had to turn it into an brick and fit an 2200Mha bat to it)

v12v12 - Monday, August 16, 2010 - linkThank you man... FINALLY some voice of true dissent! While the rest of the zombies on here clap and rave; the REAL issues come out in your post. Course as most zombies behave, they either flat out ignore it (Jobs/Apple/big-corp mantra). It seems like people in today's society are more and more becoming fanboyed about anything "new." Their supposed reasoning and logic (lack thereof) skills are deteriorating generation after generation.
_The more "entertainment" devices these nefarious companies produce, the more you all open up their mouths and ask for another spoonful. Not ONE mention of how these devices are actively spying and reporting your Internet usage, phone calls/txts/tweets/facebook blah blah. Everyone just happily uses them with out even asking... HRMM this device pretty much is my personal log/journal (txts, calls, tweets, surfing etc.) and the phone corps CAN and DO turn over ALL of your info to the NSA/CIA "secret" rooms (AT&T anyone?)

Yep, no CCleaner or data-encryption/wipe when BIG-BROTHER is siphoning the data off at the SOURCE. HAHA I love it... everyone is so caught up being "entertained," and 1-up'ing everyone else with their newer toys; all the while someone else IS watching and tracking your most PRIVATE (so you thought) behaviors.... Course no mention from Anand (nothing personal boss) or any of the other review/tech sites about it either. Lol... Jokes on YOU all... Soon some of you will be BUSTED/RATTED out by your PHONE in the near future. All those supposed "private" txts and crap will come out in full public view, when they have your ass in court for some talk about picking up a "sack, dub, nuggets, green, trees" and anything else considered "illegal" at the time or arbitrarily deemed an "act of terrorism," which NOW puts you under the guise of the PATRIOT-ACT, which essentially STRIPS you of nearly all your rights afforded to you by the Bill-of-Rights and that has-been document call the CONSTITUTION of the UNITED STATES.
Yep, this IS going to be yours/mine and everyone else's future if people don't start inquiring about the SECURITY of these devices, aside from whining about being about to NOT crack the eFuse etc.

puffpio - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkI'm curious (and I hope you and others are too!) about how an overclocked Droid fares against a Droid X?
Many rooted/custom ROM Droid people have no problem taking their phones up to 1Ghz
1Ghz OMAP 3630 vs 1GHz OMAP 3430 would be an awesome comparo Reply
Goty - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkGood to know. I ran most of the same benchmarks on my own and it seems that the Captivate is actually slower in the Sunspider test than any of the newer TI or Qualcomm SoCs, but faster in everything else. Very curious.
Anyhow, looking forward to the review(s)! Reply
metafor - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkSunspider is kinda wonky. It can vary depending on what version of the browser you're using. In either case, unless you know you have the exact same software, it's usually not a good way to test processor speed. Reply

Jonathan Dum - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkThanks for the comprehensive and all around excellent review, but I have one caveat.
As far as Android phones go, their multitouch screen controllers have tended to be sub par (try any multitouch on a nexus one, for example). I would like to know if there's any noticeable difference between these newest phones and older Android phones with capacitive screens.
As always, keep rocking these reviews, Anand. ;) Reply
Frangible - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkI've not used another Android device, but it's hypersensitive compared to my iPad/iPod Touch. Portrait keyboard mode drives me nuts. If the touchscreen were alive, I'd say it would have a degenerarive demyelinating disease. Unfortunately putting prednsone tablets on my Droid X does nothing.
It's so twitchy I can blow away the Blur, Swype, and even a modded HTC keyboard with Graffiti (free from Android Market btw). And that's Graffiti with my *thumb*, in portrait or landscape. If I started using my Pogo stylus... oh, it would be*on*.
Clearly, others don't share my opinion, but the touchscreen on the Droid X is incredibly fruuuuustrating at times. Reply
Frangible - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkAs a new Droid X owner, let me first say thanks for another great in-depth review, especially regarding the screeen details-- I just have to know these things, dammit.
Anyway, just wanted to make two screen-related comments:
1. The outdoor screen comparison pics don't show any obvious transreflective displays. This either means none of them were, or they weren't angled in a way where a transreflective display would be obviously better.
FWIW, my iPod Touch Gen 1 has a TRD, and even my iPad's display is somewhat TRD (though with poorer contrast than the iPod or even a Tungsten TX in direct sunlight; a consequence of a lesser area of reflectivity, or the IPS display?) I don't know which of the iPhones have TRDs, but it would seem likely the iPhone 4G would be on par with the iPad.
Anyway, a TRD adds a LOT to outdoor viewing if you angle it correctly. You can even turn down, or off, the backlight.
The Droid X is certainly not TR, and was worse than my much dimmer Moto Q9C outdoors (due to the touch layer). And yeah sadly, the Tungsten Tx on min bright was better. So that's why I bring this up-- TRDs are the daywalkers of the LCD underworld, so imo this should be accounted for in outdoor comparisons.
2. I looked at the pixel structures of a variety of displays under a 100x light microscope. The Droid X's sub-pixels are divided into two sections, each with a black "hole". It looked quite similar to the PSP Go's subpixels, though with a standard RGB pattern and lack of the chevron textures on the PSP Go's. I assume this is some TN variant? Does anyone which kind?
The iPad's subpixels were divided into to halves of a series of stacked chevron color bars. Only the green subpixel had the "hole" (transistor?) which looked an awful lot like a mandlebrot fractal to me. FWIW. Reply
ImSpartacus - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkI always love reading ATech's reviews, but this one was especially wonderful.
I laughed out loud at the following sentence:
"Everything about the X seems like it can be followed up with a 'that's what she said.'"
Simply hilarious. Reply
The0ne - Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - linkYes, I especially love some of the very technical tests as well. For example...
1. I let my wife use it for a day and she likes it...
2. I work in milliseconds so having a webpage load 1s makes any other phone besides iphone a no go
3. I have no fcking clue about real multi-tasking, although I know it's been around for decades, but I'll just demand for it and do a bat-shit review of it.
4. My wife and kids love it so it's an editor's choice! Go buy it.
5. It only has a few thousand apps, not the millions and millions of apps like iphone so it's crap, regardless if many of those millions of shtty apps and dictated.
Obviously, I'm exaggerating the comments to the extreme but the basis is there. While at it the review might as well include the orgasmic scene from the movie "When Harry met Sally." Reply

Hazdaz - Tuesday, July 20, 2010 - linkIt is so nice to read a review that is more than just a corporate press release. Actually taking the time to really review a device and give us honest and very thorough information is what I love about this site.
I just ordered my X and won't get it for a few days, but I tested all the usual suspects and felt that it was the right phone for me... assuming I can get used to the size.
I know there are a few people that mentioned the GalaxyS family of phones and I have to say that I really wanted to get one... they are slightly smaller in size than the X, but because of their curved shape, they felt even smaller - while still offering a 4" screen. And about that screen, well it did look great, but from all the hype, I was really expecting for it to be even better. Anyways, I really wanted to like the phone - and I was ready to settle on it actually, until I tested the call quality. HUGE let down there... I could barely hear the person on the other end of the phone call, and the speakerphone volume was terrible. Tried this test on more than one version of the GalaxyS and was quite let down.
The Incredible actually had the best sounding speakerphone that I have heard, it was quite loud - but alas I was looking for something a little bigger in size. The X had good volume - much louder than the GalaxyS - so that's the one I picked. Reply
ImmortalZ - Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - linkThe gold contacts on the battery door are a staple of Motorola designs since a long time. My old E6 and it's cousin the Z6 both have gold contacts to the battery doors. So does the RAZR line. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that nearly every one of their phones with a metal battery door has multiple contacts from the door to the phone. Reply
MacTheSpoon - Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - linkThe review was spectacular in many ways, but I couldn't find anything about call quality. Does this thing actually perform well as a phone? Did people you talk to think you sounded good, and did they sound loud and clear to you as well? How did it compare to other phones?
Was this info in there somewhere, and I just missed it? Reply

Actually, I'd say the upcoming Droid II is the sequel, as it has a fully tactile keyboard, as opposed to the touchscreen Droid X. I'd say the Droid X is a new product rather than a successor.
I'm waiting to see what the Droid II can do --I won't buy a smartphone that doesn't have a physical keyboard. Reply

Ratman6161 - Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - linkThe Droid and the Doid X are both Android 2.1 and both are soon to be upgraded to 2.2 (mine already is). The run the same apps and do the same things (weather or not you like Motoblur and find it an advantage is up to you). The Droid will basically do everything the Droid X does - just not quite as fast. So "obsolete" is a matter of perspective. That's what Verizon and Motorola would like us to think. They just love people like your friend who ditched his Droid for an Incredible and now wants to ditch the incredible for a Droid X.
Lets face it - it's evolution not revolution. If you are always trying to have the latest cool gadget, you are always going to end up disappointed and with a much thinner wallet.
Good review though. If I were buying today I'd probably go with the X. But with another year to go before the next upgrade, something else will come along long before I'm ready to buy. Reply

Homefries - Saturday, July 24, 2010 - linkFirst off, great review Brian.
However, while you did a very thorough comparison of the Droid X to other Android devices, you barely mentioned the real competitor the Droid X has to stand up against: the iPhone 4.
Readers want to know if the Droid X is the best phone on the market - the whole market - not just the market subset dedicated to Android devices.
Like the majority of the tech media, your review furthers the notion readers belong exclusively to either the iOS camp or the Andriod camp. This is simply not true. Informed readers, like the ones that peruse Anandtech, want to buy one smartphone, regardless of any marketing slants, that is the best.
Your review of the Droid X should have helped us answer the question, "Should I buy the Droid X or the iPhone 4?" But, it did not. Reply
strikeback03 - Tuesday, July 27, 2010 - linkWell, I think the conclusion in the iPhone article and some earlier Android articles applies, there is no "best" for everyone. Some people love Apple and the Apple way of life, some people won't touch it. As the iPhone is currently limited to AT&T, that is going to deter a lot of people. How large a pocket/bag you plan on carrying the phone in might make size differences more important to some than others. So while I am not one of the readers calling for no subjective opinions (it is interesting that FroYo feels significantly faster/different) I think it is still up to each buyer to decide what is most important to them.

Electrofreak - Saturday, July 24, 2010 - linkBrian and Anand, are you sure you're using the correct information regarding the SoC in the Droid X? I believe it is a OMAP 3640, not a 3630, as the maximum recommended clock speed of the 3630 is described in numerous places across the net as being 720 MHz, while the max clock speed of the 3640 is described as 1 GHz. In addition, the max recommended clock speed of the 3430 in the Droid was 600 MHz, not 800.
The information I cite above is widely available across the web... if you've got inside information the rest of us don't have, by all means let us know. But as someone who has written articles of my own on ARM SoCs and follows ARM industry news closely, I suspect that your data may not be 100% correct.
Regardless, I do have to thank you for writing some of the most informative hardware articles on the net. I appreciate it! Reply
Electrofreak - Saturday, July 24, 2010 - link...and I just found this: http://e2e.ti.com/blogs_/b/mobile_momentum/archive...
So, per TI's blog it is the 3630... now we just need an explanation of the other info on the web that describes the 3630 as maxing out at 720 MHz. Reply
Brian Klug - Monday, July 26, 2010 - linkYeah, TI's documentation is a bit outdated. Anand tackled the SoC part, but the 3630 is indeed a 1 GHz part, it isn't the 3640 guaranteed. There was a lot of confusion online about it, but Anand got the official word. ;)
I agree, back when I did my other OMAP 3 piece it was 720 MHz.

strikeback03 - Tuesday, July 27, 2010 - linkMotorola has promised it will see 2.2 later this year. 3.0 is unknown, but probably a batter than even chance. If whatever security they use is circumvented and custom ROMs can be flashed then you will probably be able to run whatever you want. Reply
lukeevanssi - Sunday, July 25, 2010 - linkit is possible but not in the moment.
the droid is like a iphone
iphone took about 3 months to unlock and another 2 months for the internet to work on tmobile.
the droid took 2 months to find a flash to metropcs (which has been found).
the code for the internet and mms for flashed metropcs droid has not yet been found or solve.

Spoooon - Tuesday, July 27, 2010 - linkJust noticed some similarities between a "review" on CNN (http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2010/technology/100... and this one:
CNN Money:
Overall, the build quality of the X is solid. Motorola has pulled off two high-end Android phones -- this and the original Droid -- that really feel good and inspire confidence. There's no give on any of the buttons, the volume buttons aren't loose and broken out of the box like some were on the original Droids, and the grippy plastic makes it feel even better. Having the phone tilt a few degrees and not rest completely flat on surfaces will help prevent the back from getting scratched up.

BookDoctor - Monday, September 27, 2010 - linkI'm with you right down the line, especially regarding the length of the charging cord. Seems to me it's just another case of the supplier wanting to make an extra buck on accessories. Oh, well. . . . Nonetheless, I think the superior performance across the board makes it a small price to pay to have what's--at least in my book--the best Android device thus far. Reply

Erasmo's excellent return isn't enough vs. Mets
Righty strikes out 10 in seven innings, but Mariners' bats go cold
SEATTLE -- Erasmo Ramirez is headed back to Triple-A Tacoma after a strong seven-inning showing on Tuesday night, but the young Mariners right-hander will carry a little more confidence after pitching extremely well in a 3-1 loss to the Mets at Safeco Field.
Ramirez, making a fill-in start in his fourth stint with the Mariners this season, allowed just two runs while striking out 10, but it wasn't enough to beat Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom on a night Seattle managed just five hits.
Ramirez was optioned to make room for Wednesday's starter, Taijuan Walker, but he departed with a smile this time.
"This is the opportunity to show up and say, 'OK, I'm here. Any time you need me, I'm going to be working again. If you need me, I'm going to be around,'" Ramirez said. "Just show them what you can do and don't be afraid. Just be the same person here or there. That's a decision from the top, so just continue working the way I've been working."
Ramirez was working in a much better fashion in this outing as he displayed an excellent changeup and better control in allowing just five hits and two runs with two walks and his career-high-tying 10 punchouts.
"He did a very nice job," Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said. "He gave us an opportunity to win a ballgame and saved our bullpen. He did a tremendous job. I was very pleased."
Though Ramirez fell to 1-5 with a 4.35 ERA, he impressed his Interleague foes from New York.
"That guy has about as good a changeup as I've seen in a long time, and located it, too," said Mets manager Terry Collins. "It's not just that he threw it, he kept the ball down. He kept the ball away."
This is the Ramirez the Mariners thought they had at the beginning of the season when he started the second game of the year and beat the Angels, 8-3, with seven strong innings. But things unraveled soon after for the 24-year-old, and he's spent much of the season in Triple-A.
When given a return shot in June, Ramirez allowed just two earned runs in 20 innings for a 0.90 ERA in four starts. But he gave up 14 hits and 16 walk and pitched past the fifth inning just once before getting sent back down.
Ramirez was far more efficient in this outing, completing seven frames on 114 pitches. He did hit two batters, but limited the Mets to just a pair of second-inning runs.
"Now my second pitch is back," he said of his changeup, "and I showed them my fastball is working, and I can throw my other two pitches, too. If I can throw any of my four pitches in any count, that was a big point for today's game."
The Mets, who snapped a three-game losing streak while improving to 47-53, recorded their first win at Safeco Field in five tries, dating back to 2005. Seattle still leads the all-time series, 8-3, going into Wednesday afternoon's rubber game.
The Mariners fell to 53-47, with their lead in the race for the second American League Wild Card spot reduced to 1 1/2 games over the Yankees and Blue Jays, who both won Tuesday.
The Mets took advantage of a misplay by center fielder James Jones to put up their only runs on Ramirez in the second. Jones tried to make a sliding stop of a low liner by Travis d'Arnaud with a runner on first, but the ball got past him and rolled to the warning track as d'Arnaud wound up with a run-scoring triple, the catcher's first in the big leagues.
McClendon said it wasn't a good gamble by the rookie, though he continues saying the youngster will learn from these mistakes.
"I'm not very fond of slides," McClendon said. "I think the only reason you slide to a ball is to avoid the wall or a player. That's something he'll learn from. If he dove for the ball, he might have caught it or he certainly would have blocked it. That's just the way it goes. He'll get better."
Jones said he just didn't extend his hand far enough to make the catch on a play he wasn't second-guessing afterward.
"I felt like I had a better chance sliding, but I don't know. That's what my body told me right there," he said. "That was a big point in the game. If I'd caught that ball, the guy would still be on first base. I'd still take the chance on that. I thought I had it. I really thought I was going to make that play. Next time I'll get a better jump on it."
Ruben Tejada drove in d'Arnaud with a flare single to left before Ramirez got the final two outs to keep the score at 2-0.
The Mariners got one back in the fifth on an RBI double by Dustin Ackley, who continued his resurgent July. Ackley went 2-for-3 and is batting .377 (20-for-53) this month to raise his season average to .243.
"That's something we certainly need from an offensive standpoint," McClendon said. "We need a boost from him and it was good to see him swinging good again tonight."
But that was the only run Seattle managed in seven innings against deGrom, who improved to 4-5 with a 3.01 ERA. The lanky 26-year-old is 4-1 with a 1.59 ERA in his last six starts.
First baseman Lucas Duda ripped a home run estimated at 446 feet off reliever Tom Wilhelmsen in the eighth for the game's final run.

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. - The third suspect in a shooting in Jacksonville Beach earlier this month that left a 25-year-old woman paralyzed was arrested Tuesday.
Police said they arrested 19-year-old Denard "Scooter" Robinson on a charge of attempted murder.
Vernon Robinson, 35, was arrested last week the same charge.
Iesha Mann was shot in the back when she was caught in the crossfire of what police said was a gang-related shooting in Jacksonville Beach. Mann was walking her dog near the intersection Third Avenue South and Seventh Street South the night of Oct. 15 when she was struck by the gunfire.
IMAGES: Family photos of Iesha Mann
Daniel Jarrett, 17, was also shot and was later arrested on attempted murder charges. His injuries were non-life-threatening.
Police said Jarrett and Denard Robinson are documented members of known gangs, but not Vernon Robinson.
Investigators said an argument between Jarrett, Denard Robinson and Vernon Robinson prompted the shooting.
Iesha Mann recently moved to Jacksonville Beach to raise her two sons, 2-year-old Tramain and 8-year-old Jeremiah.
Mann was wounded in the back and is paralyzed from the waist down. She's currently undergoing intensive therapy at Brooks Rehab.
Her family and friends are holding a fundraiser to help the single mother this Saturday at Voo-Swar Restaurant and Lounge at 51 Roberts Street off Mayport Road. It begins at noon and will include food and fun, and activities for children.
The family has established a fund at Bank of America to help raise money for her medical bills and therapy. To donate, contact the bank and specify the Iesha Mann Donation Fund, account No. 229046801374.

FIREFIGHTERS cut free an elderly lady following a car crash in Dudley today.
Two crews from Dudley Fire Station attended the incident at the junction of Fairview Road and Limepit Lane, which involved a collision between a white BMW X3 and a white Sazuki Swift.
Prior to the arrival of firefighters a male had exited the BMW, while a female had released herself from the Sazuki Swift.
Crews had to cut free a female pensioner from the Sazuki, who was then transferred to Russells Hall Hospital as a precautionary measure.
West Midlands Police and West Midlands Ambulance Service were also in attendance.

• buttdial •
Pronunciation: bêt-dai-êl • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Verb
Meaning: To unintentionally dial a number on your cellphone when you are not operating the cellphone; to pocket-dial.
Notes: OK, OK! I take it enough of you have heard this word to accept it. I've now heard it from several friends, so I guess I'll have to go along. It is sticking because of the naughty word butt in it; pocketdial goes in one ear and out the other. This word has all the lexical accoutrements of English verbs: buttdialing serves as both adjective and action noun, while buttdialer does the duty of a personal noun. (My spellchecker doesn't like this at all.)
In Play: Buttdialing occurs when something in your purse or pocket pokes a speed dial number: "I bought a cellphone, but I only get calls that are buttdialed." How can you tell if someone has buttdialed you? "Hello? Hello? I'm hearing only a scratching sound; somebody must have buttdialed my number."
Word History: No one knows who came up with this word first, though I'm sure many will take the, well, credit for it. I first heard it in 2012. It is a compound comprising butt and dial. The first of these is not a reduction of buttock, for it predates the latter; rather, buttock was a diminutive of butt. Where butt came from no one knows. Dial is a reduction of Latin rota dialis "daily wheel", which evolved to refer to any round plate over which another plate rotates. It arrived in English originally meaning "sundial". This word was attached to the first telephone dials, because they were round, rotated, and had to do with numbers. Dialis goes back to a PIE word meaning "shine", that also gave us deity and jovial. "Jovial?" you rightly ask. Yes, it comes from Jove, the Roman god of sun, sunny days, and happiness.

HOUSTON - The New Year means many of us will return to the gym as part of our New Year's resolutions. Local 2's Lauren Freeman tried out the top three fitness trends of 2013.
For the newest exercise trends, Lauren headed straight to personal trainer David James at the Houstonian. He loves to keep his clients trying new things.
So what's going to be hottest way to sweat this year? High Intensity Interval Training is becoming popular now for regular folks, too.
"In the past a lot of sprinters have used it to improve their cardiovascular endurance," James said.
Twenty minutes of High Intensity Interval Training is equivalent to 90 to 120 minutes of steady state cardio. You can use weights or not. The basic principle is simple: You work for 30 seconds and rest for 15 seconds. You can do it three to five times a week and you don't have to go to a gym to try it. The goal is to keep the heart rate up the entire time.
The next new trend is Olympic-style lifting. It sounds intimidating, but anyone can do it.
"Resistance training at any age increases bone mineral density and lean muscle tissue," James said.
When you first start out, you want to make sure flexible enough. Exercises like the deadlift or squats are similar to movements we do every day.
The last trend was Lauren's favorite -- the Indo-Row. It's a rowing machine with water inside to simulate rowing in a boat!
"They do it in a class format with head-to-head competing with someone in a friendly environment, but it will get people moving," James said.
It's low-impact and great cardio. It's 60 percent legs, 20 percent arms and 20 percent core, so it's a whole body workout.
If you're looking for high tech options, Koko FitClubs are catching on. The concept uses software hooked up to the workout machine to make sure you're doing the exercise correctly. The entire workout for strength and cardio takes 30 minutes or less. There's a Koko FitClub in Katy and in Champions.
Whether you choose to try one of these fitness trends or not, the important thing is to get moving in 2013.

The growing popularity of this game worldwide meant that poker has become one of the major investments of the Solverde Casinos. In 2006, Solverde officially launched the first poker tournament in Portugal - Solverde Poker Season - a national circuit of several stages that goes through all its Casinos. This has been increasingly gaining supporters and importance within the national and even international poker circuits. It is undoubtedly the biggest poker event in Portugal.
At the same time, Solverde has developed other poker tournaments that take place locally in some of its Casinos, which are organized during the week. It has thus responded to the increasing demand from all enthusiasts of this sport, from north to south, so that they can experience the thrill and excitement of poker in the company of Solverde.

THE WOODLANDS, Texas - A sheriff's deputy opened fire on a man who rammed a security guard in a mall parking lot, detectives said.
Montgomery County sheriff's deputies said the incident happened at The Woodlands Mall about noon on Wednesday.
Detectives said Taud Damonn Washington, 41, tried to use a stolen credit card at several stores, but it was refused at all of them. He finally gave up and went to his car, but mall security and deputies were already following him.
Investigators used their cars to box Washington into a parking spot. A deputy went over to Washington's car and Washington refused to open his door, investigators said. Washington then backed the car into a mall security vehicle, deputies said.
No one was wounded.
Washington surrendered to deputies and was taken into custody. He will face an aggravated assault charge and possibly a credit card abuse charge, officials said.
Washington is a registered sex offender who has previously been convicted of aggravated robbery, unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, drug possession, public lewdness, indecent exposure, credit card abuse, trespassing and theft. He has been sentenced to more than 23 years in prison, state jails and county jail since 1995.

Exercise and Fitness
Is running the cause of my shrinking boobs?
I was 14 and 165lbs when I started exercising last August (about 11 months ago). I usually run 2 miles a night and do about an hour of Pilates. I lost about 30 pounds and my boobs. They used to be a D cup, and now I am close to a B. I was just wondering that if I ran 1 mile and did more strength exercises, if they would grow back. And if not, what can I do to get them back without gaining a whole lot of weight.
Unfortunately, body fat has a mind of its own. It appears where it wants to, and seems to disappear from all the wrong places. When it comes to losing fat, it often does not go according to plan. Despite many claims of spot reduction (i.e. "lose belly fat first") - it rarely happens this way. The way fat loss occurs is different from person to person. Weight tends to be lost from the most recent place it appeared. For example, if your tummy started gaining first - this will likely be the very last place for the fat to disappear from.
Regardless of the recent weight loss in your chest, you can work on strengthening and toning the chest muscles. One exercise in particular can help strengthen the muscles of the upper body, including the chest muscles. Below, you will find the proper way to perform a push-up exercise.
- Lie chest-down with your hands at shoulder level, palms flat on the floor and slightly more than shoulder-width apart, your feet together and parallel to each other.
- Keep your legs straight and your toes tucked under your feet.
- Straighten your arms as you push your body up off the floor. Keep your palms fixed at the same position and keep your body straight. Try not to bend or arch your upper or lower back as you push up.
- Exhale as your arms straighten out. Pause for a moment.
- Lower your body slowly towards the floor. Bend your arms and keep your palms in fixed position. Keep body straight and feet together.
- Lower body towards the floor. Try not to bend your back. Keep your knees off the floor, and inhale as you bend your arms.
- Repeat for a total of 8-12 push-ups performed.
Here are a few tips:
- For an easier exercise, lower your knees so that they rest on the floor. Keeping your back straight and your toes tucked under your feet, proceed with the exercise normally. This decreases the amount of pressure placed on your arms.
- Another variation of a push-up is the incline push-up. Leaning on a vertical surface, such as a wall, place your hands shoulder-width apart and slowly proceed with the normal exercise.
It can be very frustrating but everybody is different. Stay committed to your training and nutrition. Understand how your body works, and set achievable goals accordingly.

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) -- Marcus Mariota threw for 198 yards and four touchdowns, including two TD strikes to tight end Colt Lyerla, and No. 2 Oregon beat No. 23 Washington 52-21 on Saturday night.
Mariota rebounded from an interception on the Ducks' opening series to complete 15 of 24 passes and Oregon (6-0, 3-0 Pac-12) won its ninth straight overall dating back to last season, as well as its ninth straight in the series against the rival Huskies (3-2, 1-1).
Lyerla caught three passes for 71 yards, including touchdowns of 10 and 13 yards.
Kenjon Barner, who went into the game ranked 10th in the nation with an average of 121 yards rushing per game, ran for 122 yards and the Ducks built a 35-7 lead at halftime.
Bishop Sankey ran for 104 yards and two touchdowns for Washington.

Disney Gets a Grown-Up Makeover (Literally) With Amazing Eye Shadow Art
Makeup artist Katie Alves has created the most amazing series of Disney-themed eye makeup. Check it out here!
-Lucia Peters
Who says Disney movies are just for kids? Not makeup artist and deviantART user Katie Alves!
Katie has done the most amazing series of Disney-themed eye makeup—although to be honest, I'm hesitant to call them mere eye makeup. These are WAY more than just a brush of eye shadow and a smudge of liner!
Kate specializes in drawing scenes on her eyes, lips, and face. According to her bio, she started with a tiny lip design in October of 2010, and when she discovered that she had a talent for it, she decided to run with it. You know those portrait miniatures that were so popular in the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries? I like to think of Katie's work as the modern-day makeup equivalent: Exquisitely detailed works of art in the tiniest form imaginable.
Read Kelly Osbourne's Emmy Awards Manicure Cost HOW Much?!
As you can see above, Katie has covered everything from the classics (Snow White), through what I usually think of as the Golden Age (Beauty and the Beast), and all the way up to some of the most recent additions to the catalog (Tangled) She's even done the odd one out:
A personal favorite: 'Nightmare Before Christmas'
Nothing for Brave yet, though; hopefully we'll be seeing it sometime soon! Check out the whole collection here, with more masterpieces depicting movies like Aladdin, The Lion King, Alice in Wonderland, and more!
Got a Disney movie you'd like to see Katie take on? Connect with her on deviantART, Facebook, Tumblr, or at her blog—and check out some of her amazing makeup tutorials on YouTube while you're at it. They're totally worth it!

Meet the Vale's youngest voters
9:30am Thursday 8th November 2012
9:30am Thursday 8th November 2012
MOST of us have to wait until we are 18 to vote in elections.
But these twins from Harvington received their cards at just 18 months old after their family accidentally registered them to vote in the Police Crime Commissioner elections.
Despite Lennon and Finley Tarry not being able to cross any boxes, their grandad said he may still take them down to the polling station anyway.
Kevin Hurdman, of Village Street, said the situation has caused a lot of laughter within the family. He said: "We had quite a chuckle and found the whole thing amusing."
The twins' mother, Harriet Hurdman, said: "I was confused as I thought you had to be 18 to vote.
People have found it hilarious."
Elaine Dicks, electoral services manager at Wychavon, said: "We ask people to declare anyone who is over 18 in the household and this is a legal declaration which we have to take on good faith.
"On rare occasions residents do get confused and think they need to list everyone who lives with them."
Voting for the new position will take place next Thursday.

I have done some searching and know this is a Hull Little Red Riding Hood. It does have the 967 marking, the Hull name, the Little Red Riding Hood and patent applied for on it. I have looked at dozens of them and can not find the brown or tan flowers anywhere! Has anyone seen this particular style and have any idea of the value? Thanks!

Vendor Cards: EVGA e-GeForce 7800 GTXby Derek Wilson & Josh Venning on 7/16/2005 12:05 AM EST

Fluppeteer - Friday, July 22, 2005 - linkIsn't that an old ATi card?
I don't know about a 7800Ultra, but it looks like the Quadro 4500 (based on the 7800) might be on for a SIGGRAPH launch. Since the 4400's a 512MB card, I doubt the 4500 will be a 256MB one. And hopefully *that* will bode well for a 512MB consumer card.
Fingers crossed.
Mind you, if a 4500 is a 7800GTX-based card (as the 3400 is a 6800GTo card), perhaps there'll be a 5500 (7800Ultra-based) in the manner of the 4400. By which point, presumably people will have stopped selling GeForce 5500 cards, or it's going to get confusing (other than a factor of a hundred in the price).
araczynski - Thursday, July 21, 2005 - linki think i'll wait for the 8800xyz Reply
Fluppeteer - Wednesday, July 20, 2005 - linkI understand the eVGA 7800GTX card (unusually) has a dual-link DVI connection. Since this was a feature which seemed to cause a lot of confusion among 6800-series card manufacturers, I just wondered if the reviewers (or anyone else) had the chance to test it? If it *is* dual link is an external TMDS transmitter used? What's the quality of nVidia's TMDS transmitter implementation this time round (reports of the 6800 series were critical)?
The 7800GTX is probably the best card out there for trying to render at the resolutions supported by an IBM T221 or Apple's 30" cinema display - although I'm inclined to wait for a 512Mb version for my T221; it would be good to know whether it's capable of driving one.
smn198 - Tuesday, July 19, 2005 - linkA suggestion:
Regarding measuring the card's noise output and the way you measured the sound
"We had to do this because we were unable to turn on the graphics card's fan without turning on the system."
Would it be possible to try and measure the voltages going to the fan when the card is idle and under full load? Then supply the fan with these voltages when the system is off using a different power supply such as a battery (which is silent) and a variable resister.
It would also be interesting to see a graph of how the noise increases when going from idle to full load over 10 minutes (or however long it takes to reach the maximum speed) on cards which have . Instead of trying to measure the noise with the system on, again measure the voltage over time and then using your battery, variable resistor and voltage meter recreate the voltages and use this in conjunction with the voltage/time data to produce noise/time data.
Thanks Reply
PrinceGaz - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkJust look at the original review to see how the 7800GTX compares with older cards, they looked at a lot more games and with a wider range of settings.
This series of articles is a comparison of 7800GTX cards and is meant to focus on the differences between them. We all know a 7800GTX is faster than a 6800U Ultra so there is no point including that on the graphs. Reply
Zak - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkI agree, without any comparison to older cards this is pretty useless. Z. Reply
PrinceGaz - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkAny word from Derek or Josh(?) as to why AA was not enabled in the tests? It would certainly be a lot more meaningful than the curent set of results at resolutions as high as 2048x1536 without AA where the lowest average framerate in any game is over 70fps. The argument about 4fps more being worthwhile because it is an extra 240 frames per minute is one of the daftest things I've read in a gfx card review.
Unless you include minimum framerates and ideally a framerate graph like [H} do, and comment on playability at different resolutions and AA settings; remarks like an overclocked card getting 76fps being wothwhile over the non-overclocked one only managing 72fps are ludicrous. I bet you couldn't even tell the two apart in a test where you weren't told which was which. Turn on 4x AA and lets see how they stand up. It may come down more to memory-bandwidth but thats okay. I'm sure some manufacturer will use Samsung's 1.4nS (1400MHz) chips, or at least their 1.5nS (1333MHz) chips sooner or later, assuming the core and circuit board are up to handling those speeds. Reply
stephenbrooks - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkOn page 5 (Heat, Power and Noise) it says under the first graph:
As you can see in the graph, there's no difference in the temperature of the reference card and the EVGA e-GeForce 7800 GTX in normal mode, and it only went up by one degree when we overclocked it.
...that's not quite right, as in fact both the e-GeForces were at 81C (overclocked or not) whereas teh reference card was at 80C. Reply
overclockingoodness - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - link#9 and #17: If you want to see the numbers, maybe you should go read the original 7800GTX review. These are just vendor series and you they are comparing the vendor's performance, which is always going to be a couple of frames here and there. It's useless to include 6800 and ATI cards in there. Reply
z0mb1e - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkI agree with #9, it would be nice if it had some numbers from the 6800 and an ATI card Reply
masteraleph - Sunday, July 17, 2005 - linkWhere's the comment about Dual-Link DVI on one of the outputs? Shouldn't the fact that this card can run the Apple 30" display be noted somewhere in the review? Reply
semo - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkthe upcoming 7800 from evga will have (with the green cooler) asymmetric cooling system (acs). xbitlabs has reported on it yesterday i think Reply
tommyw - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkI was reading this article http://www.digit-life.com/news.html?119317
and would be interested to know if Anandtech has any comments on it. According to that, if I understood properly, it is not possible to change the clocks by 1MHz steps, but by 27MHz steps. And that different parts of the core work on different frequencies.
Interesting how will this change OCing? New challenges, yes :-) !! Reply

PrinceGaz - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkIf I was going to spend about $600 on a gfx card, I think I would enable at least 4x AA in games that work correctly with it. If ncessary drop down to 1600x1200 from the tested 1920x1440 or 2048x1536; my monitor does support 2048x1536 and at a good refresh rate (85hz), but the jaggies are far more noticeable at 2048x1536 without AA, than they are at 1600x1200 with 4x AA. Reply
Samus - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkI can't believe they put up all those charts and failed to compare it to ANYTHING other than a 7000 series card. As #2 stated, exactly how many people are going to overclock this card? How many people care?
I can tell you a lot of people care to know how well it fares against a 6800. Reply

470/1250 default OC and a pretty decent game controller included. Some dudes are hitting 490/1300 pretty easy with mild OCing.
#2 -- I agree for most part.. It's different taking a 1.8 A64 to 2.8, scores will massivly improve..but some of us like to OC everything no matter what..it's an addiction trust me.:P Reply
drifter106 - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - link#5 thanks for the comment on your card and its overclocking ability...some people just don't know how to comprehend the written word...maybe they need to get their shit together before they make themselves look silly Reply

kmmatney - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkIf I was spending $600 on a card, I don't think I'd bother overclocking it too much - there's to much to lose if it overheated... Reply
kmmatney - Saturday, July 16, 2005 - linkPretty weak overclock. Reply
