Hartley vows to be on Best behaviour if he earns a recall for Ireland clash
By Alex Lowe, Press Association
All smiles: Hartley talks to the media on Wednesday
England hooker Dylan Hartley would relish the chance to lock horns with Ireland opposite number Rory Best again in a bid to lay down a marker for British and Irish Lions Test selection this summer.
Hartley is pushing hard for a recall to the England starting line-up for Sunday's RBS 6 Nations clash in Dublin, having returned from injury via the bench in the win against Scotland.
Should the pair come face to face on Sunday, Lions coach Warren Gatland will be watching the hooking battle intently, as the duo are the leading contenders to start against Australia this summer.
Hartley not only views every Six
Nations contest as a Lions selection head-to-head - but also every
training session following the rapid emergence of Tom Youngs as a top-class
'The Lions is like a big bonus isn't it? It's something to work for,' Hartley said.
'We have a big chance with England as well. We'd all love to lift the trophy. That in itself is pretty exciting.
'The Six Nations is your stage to perform. Every week it's your rival (you are up against) - even Tom here with England. I understand that.

In contention: Hartley is hoping to start in Dublin on Sunday
'I understand that I've got seven weeks to give myself a good crack at it. I've got my head round that and I'm highly motivated.
'I have played against Rory Best once this year for Northampton against Ulster. He is a key man in their team.
'They have got plenty of class throughout and he is key to their success up front.'
recalls with a grimace the last time England went to Dublin in the Six
Nations, when Ireland blew away their dreams of winning the Grand Slam
with a ferocious performance.
most of the England team has changed since that 24-8 defeat, Hartley
will make sure the newcomers realise just what awaits them in the Aviva
'You can take points from that experience and there are other players in the squad who experienced that. All we can do is share that with the current crop,' Hartley said.
Opposite man: Best (centre) is key to Ireland's plans
'It was the intensity which stood out. I remember the first scrum of the game and we got rolled, they got a big shunt on and the crowd goes wild. I remember my first carry of the game and I got held in the choke tackle, ball turned over.
'If you look at the way they started
the game against Wales at the weekend, they put a big emphasis on that.
We need to front up emotionally. You need to be right in the head.'
and Best came to blows when they met in that Heineken Cup fixture at
Franklin's Gardens, with the England hooker receiving a two week ban
after losing his cool in the Saints' defeat.
The 26-year-old was also banned for eight weeks following last year's Six Nations game against Ireland, after being found to have bitten Stephen Ferris on the hand.

Hartley has been spoken to by the England management of his discipline and he is confident he can keep his cool in the furnace of a Dublin Test match.
'The last one (ban) was down to frustration, the team not playing well, myself not playing well and not thinking and just reacting,' Hartley said.
'It is a thinking process. I feel like I am in control.
'If anyone is (targeting me) it is
short-sighted because as soon as you focus your energies on someone else
you are not concentrating on yourself.'
England coach Stuart Lancaster has already named a 25-man squad that will travel to Dublin, but the starting line-up and bench will be confirmed tomorrow morning.
Rivals: Hartley will have to oust Tom Youngs (left) to start
The big decisions are in midfield, where Lancaster must choose two from Manu Tuilagi, Billy Twelvetrees and Brad Barritt.
James Haskell is likely to come into the back row for the injured Ben Morgan and start at blindside flanker, with Tom Wood shifting to No 8.
And Hartley is pressing Youngs for the starting hooker's jersey he last wore on the tour of South Africa, having missed the QBE autumn internationals through injury.
'As soon as you don't play it makes you appreciate your time in the shirt and makes you want to work harder to get back into the shirt,' he said.

The U.S. Navy should delay the award of a multibillion-dollar contract to Huntington Ingalls Industries Inc. to build the second aircraft carrier in a new class as the first one faces failings from its radar to the gear that launches planes, congressional investigators said.
"Technical, design and construction challenges" with the first carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, have caused "significant cost increases and reduce the likelihood that a fully functional ship will be delivered on time," the Government Accountability Office said in a draft report obtained by Bloomberg News.
The Ford, already the most expensive warship ever built, is projected to cost $12.8 billion, 22 percent more than estimated five years ago. The report raises questions about the future of U.S. seapower in a time of reduced defense budgets and about whether new carriers are affordable as they assume greater importance in the Pentagon's strategy to project U.S. power in the Asia-Pacific region.
Delays and "reliability deficiencies" with the flattop's new dual-mission radar, electromagnetic launch system and arresting gear for aircraft mean that the Ford "will likely face operational limitations that extend past commissioning" in March 2016 and "into initial deployments," the agency said.
The GAO, the investigative arm of Congress, said that's reason enough to delay the contract that's scheduled to be issued this year for the second ship, the USS John F. Kennedy.
'Repeating Mistakes'
"It will be important to avoid repeating mistakes" in the contract for the Kennedy, the GAO said. "Staying within budget" will require the Navy to reduce "significant risk mainly by completing land-based testing for critical technologies before negotiating a contract" with Newport News, Virginia-based Huntington Ingalls.
Beci Brenton, a company spokeswoman, said in a telephone interview that "it would not be appropriate to comment on a draft report."
Naval Sea Systems Command spokeswoman Colleen O'Rourke said the command also wouldn't comment.
"As the Navy is currently working with the GAO on this report, it would be inappropriate to comment on any draft findings at this time," she said in an e-mail. "When the report is finalized, it will include Navy comments."
Huntington Ingalls rose 2.4 percent to $56.64 in New York at 3:20 p.m. after rising 31 percent this year.
The Navy is grappling with how to pay for a shipbuilding plan that anticipates $43 billion for three carriers in the Ford class, as well as $34 billion for 52 Littoral Combat Ships and a 12-vessel nuclear submarine fleet to replace the Ohio-class submarine.
Estimate 'Optimistic'
While the GAO said that the Navy and Huntington Ingalls are taking steps to control costs for the Ford, most increases occur after a vessel is 60 percent complete and key systems are installed and integrated. The Ford is now 56 percent complete.
Even the current $12.8 billion estimate is "optimistic because it assumes the shipbuilder will maintain its current level of performance throughout the remainder of construction," the GAO said.
The Pentagon's independent cost-estimating office, the Congressional Budget Office and a Navy-commissioned panel project final costs as high as $14.2 billion, the GAO said.
The draft report also raises questions about how many aircraft carriers the nation will have ready this decade. Congress has given the service temporary relief from the requirement to have 11 fully capable aircraft carriers. There are now 10 after deactivation of the USS Enterprise, and the Ford is supposed to bring that back to 11 by March 2016.
'Reliability Shortfalls'
"As it now stands, the Navy will not be positioned to deliver a fully capable ship at the time," the GAO said.
"Reliability shortfalls facing key Ford-class systems cloud the Navy's ability to forecast when, or if" the carrier will meet the aircraft sortie rates and reduced manning requirements that distinguish it from the older Nimitz class, the GAO said.
O'Rourke, the Naval Sea Systems Command spokeswoman, wouldn't comment on the specific value of the potential detailed design and construction contract to Huntington Ingalls for the Kennedy that the GAO said is due in September.
Cost Breakdown
The largest share of the cost increase for the Ford, 38 percent, stemmed from technologies delivered by the Navy, including the radar, launch system and arresting gear, according to the GAO.
The electromagentic launch system made by San Diego-based General Atomics has increased to $742.6 million, up 134 percent since 2008, the GAO said. The cost of arresting gear also made by the company increased 125 percent to $169 million.
Raytheon Co.'s dual-band radar has increased 140 percent to $484 million, according to data cited by the GAO. Twenty-seven percent of the cost growth was pegged to shipbuilder design issues and another 27 percent to construction, both attributed to Huntington Ingalls.
Huntington Ingalls is building the Ford under a $4.9 billion detailed design contract that covers the shipbuilder's portion of constructing the vessel. It doesn't cover other costs, such as the nuclear reactor to power the ship and other government-furnished equipment.
The GAO said its analysis indicates that Huntington Ingalls "was forecasting an overrun at contract completion of over $913 million" that it said stemmed from "the shipbuilder not accomplishing work as planned."
Huntington's Brenton said in an e-mail in May that, "as the first new design carrier beginning construction in more than 40 years," the Ford "is designed to provide increased capability and reduced total ownership cost by about $4 billion compared to Nimitz-class carriers."
"For this first-of-class ship, construction commenced in parallel with design completion based on earlier decisions at Department of Defense," she said. "Ongoing design during the construction process caused delay and inefficiencies in procurement, manufacturing, and assembly."

The inside of the nose is self-cleaning and needs no special care. If your baby has any discharge, wipe it from the outside, but resist using cotton balls or your fingernail to try to remove it from the nostril - you might damage the nasal membranes.
Newborns often have snuffly breathing because their nasal passages are very narrow. Frequent sneezing will help your baby to clear any blockages from his nasal cavity.
It's true - there is still no cure for the common cold, but there are some simple steps you can take to make your baby comfortable - and lessen the likelihood that it will become something more serious - while he rides out the storm.

is something you normally should try to avoid In this case I think he did smash 2 flies in one smash. The zener diodes serves 2 purposes in a good way: - provide a constant current to input stage - setting operation voltage for cascoding transistors in input stage There are more sofisticated and maybe better ways to do these both things, but no other such simple way, as Leach is using. |

Leach Low TIM 1976 and on have Zener referenced tail current resistor with capacitor bypass. Version II combined the cascode with the tail resistor from the common Zener reference. Version 4 introduced the dual series Zeners on each half. Version 4.5 still follows this. Can you post V4.2 & V4.3 schematics showing the changes you refer to? |

Hi Jacco & others,
the zener reference can be eliminated and replaced with a pure resistor string or LED string BUT the reference voltage does not have to remain at +-40V. You could reduce down to a 2, 3 or 4 LED string or equivalent resistor string ( about 4V to 7V). The CB capacitance of the input transistors would rise slightly at this lower voltage. Q. Is CB capacitance an issue? Q. Is more benefit gained by reducing the CE voltage across the input transistors? |

You're precious Ace,
Some of us couldn't wait to get out of acadaemia and into the real world designing amplifiers for a living, rather than dabbling on a state wage. Not to demean Mr Leach but if I went for medical treatment I would rather a 'hands on' experienced clinician than an acadaemic. I hung my career on my ability to design amplifiers. Still do.

if this is not "hands on" i do not know what is! how many of his students that learned from him could have gone on designing their own amps. there are many who can build great sounding amps from others' designs, but ask them how the thing works and they do not know a thing! theory and practice always go together! otherwise there will be blind leading blinds, and lames trying to boogie with fellow lames!

- Cooking Time:
- Servings:
- Preparation Time:
- 2 cups strawberries, diced
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar reduction (or regular vinegar, I just happened to have some reduction left in the fridge)
- small handful of fresh basil leaves, sliced
- 6 oz goat cheese (log)
- flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- almonds, ground in food processor
- canola oil - just enough to cover bottom of frying pan
- Toss strawberries with vinegar and set aside for at least 30 minutes.
- Slice goat cheese into 5 rounds. Works best at room temperature, and if you clean knife in between cuts. Carefully dredge each round in flour, then dip in egg, and coat thoroughly with almonds.
- Heat oil in pan over medium heat until just smoking. Add coated goat cheese rounds and fry for a few minutes on each side, turning carefully with tongs or a spatula. Remove to a paper towel to let them drain for a minute, but not too long, because they should be served warm.
- Add basil to strawberries and toss.
- Arrange spinach leaves on each plate and top with a goat cheese round and some of the strawberry mixture.

Designated Roth Account
Definition of 'Designated Roth Account'
An individual retirement plan in which employees can have all or a portion of contributions to a 401(k) or 403(b) placed into a separate Roth retirement account. Contributions made to a designated Roth account are considered to be to a separate account within the 401(k) or 403(b) plan, and contributions, gains and losses are accounted for separately from regular 401(k) or 403(b) contributions.
Investopedia explains 'Designated Roth Account'
Employers can make matching contributions to the designated Roth account, just as they can to 401(k) or 403(b) accounts. Investors can make contributions to both a pre-tax, traditional retirement account and a designated Roth account during the same tax year, but the total contributions are subject to an annual contribution limit.

Lincoln Cinemas's five screens host a range of Hollywood hits, including popular blockbusters as well as 3-D features. The movie house also keeps the concession bar stocked with fresh popcorn and other light bites such as hot dogs and nachos, all of which can be washed down with soda, coffee, or laughter.
The undead roam the corridors and exhibition galleries at the nonprofit Liberty Science Center, seeking out intrepid brain owners who come to enjoy an evening of trick-or-treating, crafting, costume contests, and other ghoulish delights. Class is in session at the Halloween Haunted High School as ghouls recreate terrifying scenes from horror films and elementary-school gym class. Visitors tiptoe into the Creepy Cafeteria, where zombie lunch ladies serve up delicacies fresh from the graveyard and a menacing nurse awaits those foolish enough to seek remedies for their fits of fear.
Tribeca Cinemas screens the latest works by renowned national and international filmmakers, but not on a new-movie-every-Friday schedule. Instead, Tribeca's two theaters hosts festivals throughout the year, including the famed Tribeca Film Festival, the Architecture & Design Film Festival, NY Television Festival, and Vision Fest. In between fests, the theater's curators stick to foreign films and repertory classics, which they screen using both digital projections and projectors for 35mm and 16mm reels. They also do private screenings and theater rentals.
But entertainment at Tribeca Cinemas isn't just limited to what's onscreen. Soirees at The Varick Room, the theater's industrial-chic event venue, run the gamut from film premieres and rehearsal dinners to lavish cocktail parties. Backed by glowing red letters that spell "LIQUORS," bartenders whip up cocktails themed around each event, while the wait-staff distributes beverages and bottle service to a soundtrack of live entertainment.
Uniquely residing indoors, the marquee at Fabian 8 Cinema evokes nostalgia with its towering lights and brick façade, even as it flashes the current features in digital print. Within the actual theaters, viewers recline in high-backed rocker seats, arranged in extra-wide stadium configurations for maximum comfort and cowering space during scary scenes. Serving eyes a veritable feast of motion pictures, first-run features spring from the latest in digital cinema technology, augmented by digital and 3-D technologies.
If your name were Aristotle, it would be hard not to be profound. Aristotle "Telly" Savalas––the actor who exuded '70s masculinity as TV cop Kojak––proves not to be an exception. The smirking, self-aware alpha male swaggers on stage to piano accompaniment in Who Loves You, Baby?, a retro lounge comedy show where Tom DiMenna embodies Telly's persona––complete with a bald cap, a holster, and a butterfly-collared shirt tucked into a leisure suit.
Founded in 1970, Film Forum has established itself as a cultural institution, showcasing independent flicks, unforgettable classics, and globally sourced cinema. As an autonomous, full-time nonprofit theatre, the 489-seat Film Forum eschews the reigning Hollywood regime of 3-D smell-o-vision for screenings that focus on social, political, historical, and cultural commentary. Valid for one full year after activation, a $110-level one-year membership lets cineastes practice their favorite seated pastime with an array of benefits including a $5.50 price reduction on one or two tickets (from $12.50 down to $7) for every movie on all three screens 365 days a year, as well as a 20% discount on Film Forum merchandise.
Abbey Theatre veteran Ray Yeates takes audiences on a guided tour of the Irish émigré's psyche with an uplifting one-man performance set amid the Irish economy's stunning collapse. In this standalone sequel to his internationally produced In High Germany, acclaimed playwright Dermot Bolger reconnects audiences with Eoin, an expat back in the country of his birth after an extended stay in Germany. Armed with no more than his sharp wits and the stitching on his polo shirt, Ray Yeates convincingly transforms the intimate West Village stage into Dublin Airport for a riveting 75-minute performance. Making use of airports' birthday-clown-like tendency to evoke existential dread, the play extracts an uplifting story of friendship and family from the midst of a late-night boarding area.

Philosophy From A Skeptical Perspective
One of the questions that philosophers discuss is: How can we avoid, or at least reduce, errors when explaining the world? The skeptical answer to this question is: We cannot avoid errors since no statement is certain oShow morer even definitely plausible, but we can eliminate some past errors. This book advocates the skeptical position and discusses its practical applications in science, ethics, aesthetics, and politics. It brings philosophy down to earth and comprises an outline of a skeptical guide to the real world.Show less

/r/truegaming is a subreddit dedicated to meaningful, insightful, and high-quality discussion on all topics gaming.
New? Not sure how or what to post or want to know more about the goals of the subreddit? Check out the /r/truegaming Guide.
If you want the TL;DR version of how to post to /r/truegaming, it is as follows:
Come up with a clear title; avoid sensationalism.
Describe what you wish to discuss in detail in the message body in a meaningful manner.
Focus the discussion in a specific direction and avoid general questions ("what are your thoughts", "what games/mechanics are x", "discuss", yes/no questions, etc.).
This is a subreddit for discussion. This is not a sub for memes, images links, article links, fanboyism (well, light fanboyism is allowed), and circlejerk type posts. This means that there's bound to be agreement, disagreement, interesting tangents, and even indifference.
Have an open mind. Don't dismiss someone just because they have a different opinion. Instead, clearly explain why you have a disagreement, and be willing to understand differing points of view.
Don't be rude. This is a forum for friendly discussion, personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Use your votes. Downvoting is not for disagreement, however if (and only if) a post doesn't fit the rules, feel free to downvote. Certainly upvote the kinds of posts you want to see more of!
On the same note, don't let downvotes get to you. Despite being against "Reddiquette" and these rules, many users downvote for arbitrary reasons. No one but the individual downvoters are in control of this. If you downvote, we suggest that you explain why in the comments.
Automoderator will remove top-level comments with fewer than 150 characters. If you're posting a link relevant to the discussion, elaborate on its content.
Discussion threads about specific games, mechanics, tropes, etc. (be specific, and include discussion points).
News relevant to the gaming industry and culture (be sure to include discussion points).
Links to articles and videos that can serve as a jumping off point for discussion - but please include a summary and discussion points about the videos and articles.
DAE posts, or any similar variant.
Posts asking for idle speculation ("Why don't more games do X?", "Why isn't X more popular?").
Vague or overly general posts ("What are your thoughts on X?", "How do you feel about X?"). Posts should specify the context of the discussion, not just ask for thoughts, feelings, or opinions in general.
List posts ("What games do X?", "What are some good examples of X?"). Check out /r/gamingsuggestions.
Purchasing advice. For these, please go to /r/shouldibuythisgame or /r/gamingsuggestions.
How-to posts (see the game related sub for game hints, or /r/gamedev to discuss game programming and development).
Posts with only a link and no discussion points.
Posts about recent games for which another post already exists (use the search function).
If your post is not showing up in the new queue and it doesn't break any of the above rules, please message the mods as our spamfilter is somewhat aggressive.
Have questions/comments/feedback? Feel free to message the mods.
Spoilers Please use the spoiler tag where appropriate:

You probably shouldnt play DayZ mod on Arma 2 then. 45 minutes or more just to walk and find a friend from random spawns on the 240+ish km map. Then get killed bu zombies or bandits and lose all gear and start again. If youre licky you can find and fix a vehicle to traverse the zombie apocalypse. Just try not to run out of gas.

This is an opinion piece written by Roberta Heiman. It is not a news story. Although Ms. Heiman does not write this, in order for Magistrate D'Amour to find Deidre Carter in contempt, he had to find that she had the ability to obey the order of the court and willfully disobeyed the court's order. Ms. Heiman writes that Small Claims Court operates "under relaxed rules that do not provide for court-appointed attorneys for low-income defendants". That makes it sound like Small Claims is some kind of exception and the in other civil, that is non-criminal cases, a person is entitled to have an attorney appointed at public expense. That is not the case. In general, there is no right to have appointed counsel in civil cases. In the 1963 decision, Gideon v. Wainwright, the U.S. Supreme Court held that due process required the appointment of counsel for the indigent in serious CRIMINAL (not civil) cases.

Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord.
Courageous patience
7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord. Consider the farmer who waits patiently for the coming of rain in the fall and spring, looking forward to the precious fruit of the earth. 8 You also must wait patiently, strengthening your resolve, because the coming of the Lord is near. 9 Don't complain about each other, brothers and sisters, so that you won't be judged. Look! The judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as an example of patient resolve and steadfastness.
This delightful compendium of facts, quotes, lists, mini-biographies, and poetry offers an endlessly entertaining and surprising look at an age-old faith. Parminder Summon, an active Christian of more than twenty years, believes the greatest misconception about Christians is that they are humorless and boring. But nothing could befurther from the truth and "Summon's Christian Miscellany proves that. This compendium of "things you didn't know you didn't know" is a reflection of Parminder's unshakable faith; his passion as an avid collector of facts, trivia, and curiosities; and his desire just to laugh. Rooted in numerous areas such as philosophy, science, politics, and culture, Christianity offers a rich stockpile of eccentric facts and figures. "Summon's Christian Miscellany provides readers with a vast range of amusing and serious--but always entertaining--facts on the world's most popular religion (with more than two billion adherents).

FRIENDS (Season 5) (4 DVD Set)
Not Available Online
Pickup Not
In 1994, the idea was created for "Friends": a show about six friends in New York as they navigate their way through life and learn to grow up as they approach the third decade of their life. All, with the help from each other to get them through the obstacles that life naturally has for us. Monica is the excessively neat and organized "older sister" of the group, who works as a chef while yearning to find her ideal love. Ross, Monica's older brother, is a paleontologist with a lifelong crush on Rachel. He is a laid-back man with low self esteem and a recent divorcee. Rachel is the pretty, bubbly girl who spent most of her life as a spoiled rich princess. Now she must learn to face the real world. Chandler is Ross' college buddy and the guy who will crack jokes at a moment's notice. Phoebe is a lovable eccentric masseuse who easily could have fit in with Haight Ashbury in the 1960s. And Joey, the friend who has an inverse relationship between his good looks and his intelligence. He dreams of becoming an actor. These six individuals make up the cast of Friends.

WASHINGTON — As unrest sweeps the Middle East, it's more urgent than ever to make peace between Israel and the Palestinians, President Barack Obama said Tuesday after meeting with Israeli President Shimon Peres.
The meeting occurred even as the U.S. condemned the announcement that new Israeli apartment buildings have been approved for a contested part of Jerusalem. Palestinians refuse to restart negotiations unless Israel stops building housing in east Jerusalem and the West Bank, occupied territory that the Palestinians claim for their future state.
Obama didn't speak about the housing announcement when he addressed reporters after his Oval Office meeting with Peres, Israel's ceremonial president and longtime advocate of peace talks.
Obama said the two had an extensive discussion about developments in the Middle East, where uprisings have toppled longtime rulers, including key U.S. and Israeli ally Hosni Mubarak of Egypt.
"He and I both share a belief that this is both a challenge and an opportunity," Obama said. "That with the winds of change blowing through the Arab world, it's more urgent than ever that we try to seize the opportunity to create a peaceful solution between the Palestinians and the Israelis."
Peres, too, said that it was necessary to return to peace talks.
"We don't want to be in controversy with the Muslim world. We want to make friends with them. We want to have peace," Peres told reporters outside the White House.
Peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians collapsed in 2008, reviving briefly in September 2010 but collapsing again when Israel ended a moratorium on settlement construction.
The U.S. wants peace talks to restart and Obama had pushed for a deal by September 2011. Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is expected to be in Washington next month.
Yet several times Israelis have announced new housing developments at awkward times for the U.S., most notably just over a year ago when another building project in east Jerusalem was announced during a visit to Israel by Vice President Joe Biden.
Obama left it to State Department spokesman Mark Toner to condemn Monday's announcement that Jerusalem officials were giving preliminary approval for 942 new apartments in a Jewish development in the city's contested eastern sector.
"We're deeply concerned about the announcement of the approval for these units," Toner said. "We believe that through good-faith direct negotiations the parties should mutually agree on an outcome that realizes the aspirations of both parties. Ultimately, a lack of resolution to this conflict, harms Israel, harms the Palestinians and harms the interests of the United States and the international community."

Hey everyone. I know my way around photoshop pretty well when it comes to making textures for 3d models and stuff but I've never really done digital painting/concept art. This basically my first digital painting. I'm liking how it's looking so far but I'm having trouble painting believable reflection on the armor. Though I kinda like the reflection on his right gauntlet. So I haven't finished the weapon yet but I just added the axe blade so all of you would know what he would be holding eventually.
Anyway, I'd really appreciate any critiques you all can give me. I feel that maybe I can add some more intricate details on the armor(rivets, relief design, etc) and add some subtle color in the armor. Thanks guys!

Nvidia 8800 GTS 512MB Review – The Essence of 128 Shader Processors
By TeamVR on December 11, 2007 9:42 am@vrzoneJust over a month after NVIDIA stole the show with the introduction of their G92 based 8800GT, they have re-introduced the 8800GTS based on the G92 to up the ante with ATI once again. Today, we will take the 8800GTS offerings from Asus and Inno3D for a spin and see how much of a difference the 16 additional Unified Shader Processers make.
NVIDIA has a pretty anal way of naming their graphics accelerators, you've got to admit. First, they dump out a dung load of numbers for every series, and then they add a couple of letters behind those numbers to confuse you. Just look at the existing GeForce 8 series. There's already the 8400, 8500, 8600, 8800 and the rumoured 8900 on the list, and more to come as NVIDIA milks the old cow dry. NVIDIA knows that numbers alone don't cut it for being a pain-in-the-ass, so they put nonsensical letters after the numbers to irritate consumers. Think GS, GT, GTS, things that never come close to sniffing a bell in that vast acronym dictionary of yours. For those with deeper pockets, NVDIA makes it easier for you to remember their range. The largest number is married to a corny "Ultra" right at the top.
Why put out a paragraph of rant here right on a beautiful first page? It's got nothing to do with a review, doesn't it? In truth, the 8800GTS has already been reviewed on our pages many moons ago. This is not a re-review of a different item, but rather one that checks out a brand new offering from the graphical acceleration giant. You geeks have to thank that wonderous geek brain of yours for remembering every card in the GeForce series and knowing a couple more of FireGLs and Radeons. The 8800GTS we have with us today isn't that G80 with a 320/640MB buffer you used to know. This 8800GTS is based in the all new G92 graphics chipset that had it debut only a while ago in the guise of the 8800GT. You could call the G92 8800GTS a beefed up 8800GT, or you could look at it as though the 8800GT was a castrated G92 8800GTS, either way, the two 8800s are very similar, sharing more than just the graphics chipset.
We received 8800GTS cards from both Asus and Inno3D!
The G92 is the result of what the industry calls a "die-shrink." You don't have to mourn over a die-shrink because it usually means that things are getting better. Die-shrinks have had their fair share of eventful history and are generally known for a number of improvements assuming that nothing goes terribly wrong in the shrinking process. You know that the QX9650 was a good shrink because it clocks better than the Q6850 and consumes less power. You know Prescott was a bad shrink because it ran hotter than a Northwood and killed many motherboards meant for the latter. For graphics chipsets, as it is for CPUs, a die shrink usually means a combination of things, including lesser power consumption, less heat produced, a smaller core size, potential for squeezing more complex circuitry into the same-sized device, and faster switching transistors that translates to higher clockspeeds. Now that a single wafer can pack in more chips, it also means less cost per chip, so kudos to NVIDIA for the effort.
The new G92 is 65nm, just like the Core 2 Duo Conroe CPUs on the market right now. You'd see the 8800GTS in 512MB versions because there's been changes made to the memory controller onboard the G92 chipset. The memory runs on a 256 bit bus now unlike the 320/384 bit memory bus of the G80, so you won't see the 8800GT and 8800GTS offered with 320/384MB or 640/768MB video buffers. G92 on a 8800GTS has 128 Stream Processors, 16 (possibly one cluster) more than the 8800GT. The display chipset has also been embedded into G92 silicon, so there's no need for a stray mBGA device to create the DVI outputs. PCIe 2.0 is supported on the 8800GTS, as is the new video processing engine for H.264 decoding. High Definition video with High Definition gaming seems like what the 8800GTS is about to satisfy. With LCD prices on the cheap, HD is indeed the way to go for the most immersive experience.
For today, we'd pit the two G92 brothers against each other on the arena using the Forceware 169.06 drivers. The prizes for the winner? Umm, we'd talk about that later!

It's a personal website, so while some of the stuff here related to my work, much of it does not. On the whole, you'll find things about education, open access, digital technology and ICT, as well as about media, maths and science, across primary, secondary and higher education, both in European, African, and global contexts. If you dig for long enough, you'll also find things about music, languages, and archaeology.

Note that this website is built on MediaWiki, and if you poke around for long enough, you'll also find the content is hosted on my wiki, which is a bit more experimental (and rough and ready) than the bits of the site that are my "official" website. The wiki links are marked with a little globe like this:.

"We need a website! Where can we hire a developer?"
I've had quite a lot of conversations with various people recently, saying that they would like to build a web presence and/or have better tools for collaboration. Often, the thought is that a developer is needed, to set up your own site, while at the same time the budget is very limited.
I always say that it's best to look at what free services are out there, and whether you are willing to trade some of what you need (including perhaps some branding and ownership) for getting a better service more cheaply.
The standard recomendations are to look at
- Social networking: Facebook, Twitter, Google+
- Wordpress for website and blogging
- Google sites for websites
- Flickr for images
- YouTube for video
- For collaboration, the Google services (including Google Drive, calendar, mail) work well, and there's also Google Apps for Education.
The drawbacks are that you have to take what's there in terms of facilities. This means not being able to fully customise the experience (including branding and facilities), and it means not having full ownership of your data (because it's in the cloud, basically another person's computer). However, on the positive side, there are quite a few existing features (e.g. including mobile apps), and it's free. Moreover, you probably want some presence (e.g. on social networking sites) anyway, so it's a good step to take. Also, using a service like the above, it means that ownership can be decentralised. If somebody else want to take over running a particular part of the site, they can just do so, rather than having to get (say) a university-login (which they may not be able to to get). Some solutions like wordpress are neat, in that you can migrate to your own server when you feel that's necessary.
To develop your own site (even if you used an existing content/learning manamgenent system), that has your own facilities (say) for social networking and for document sharing, from scratch, you'd be looking at a very significant start-up cost, as well as ongoing maintenance cost. For most organisations that's really not feasible.
So in the first instance, it makes sense to launch on a combination of the above tools, and look for somebody who is (say) savvy about social media, and can manage your presence on those sites, rather than looking for a developer to develop your own site (which doesn't even address the question of who will manage the content on that site!).
