Rabbi Menachem Leibtag
"Boiling" Mad
And so, G-d sent wild animals to attack the Egyptians. Pharaoh summoned Moshe and told him that he would allow them to sacrifice to G-d in the land of Egypt.
"That won't do," Moshe replied. "Our sacrifices are animals that your people revere. If the Egyptians saw us offering them up, they'd riot. Nope, we've got to have that three-day trek."
"Fine!" said Pharaoh. "You can go, just not too far - and you've got to pray for me while you're at it!"
"Deal," said Moshe. "When I leave here, I'll pray to G-d and tomorrow, He'll take the animals away. But no more of your tricks!"
Moshe prayed and G-d removed the animals, but Pharaoh again reneged on his promise to release the Jews.
And so, G-d sent Moshe back to Pharaoh yet again. This time, Moshe warned Pharaoh that G-d would send a plague against the Egyptians' livestock. Once again, G-d protected the Jews from the plague so that not one of their animals died.
For the sixth plague, G-d told Moshe to take handfuls of soot from a furnace and to throw it in the air in Pharaoh's presence. The ash scattered throughout Egypt and, wherever it fell, people and animals broke out in painful boils. Pharaoh's magicians were rendered useless to him, as they were all incapacitated by the outbreak.
After this, Moshe returned to Pharaoh and warned him that all of this was pre-game stuff and that he should really reconsider his position before the main event.

Contigo takes a totally different approach from WebEx to online meetings. Instead of playing host on its site, it sells software so companies can host their own meetings.
Contigo's i2i Internet Conferencing System is a family of four products that support from 10 to 1,500 attendees with varying feature sets. The basic 10-user package costs $2,799 and features presentation uploading and archiving, Follow-Me Web tours, ad hoc meetings, live software demos, chat, polling, whiteboard and annotation. Moving up a couple notches, the Seminar version ($18,499) supports 50 users and adds secure HTTPS connections, automated event scheduling and calendaring, recording and playback of meetings, and meeting/seminar management facilities. All versions can support more users with additional licenses.
Platform versatility and superior services
Although the server software requires an NT or UNIX machine, Contigo clients may access the software using any combination of Macintosh, Wintel, UNIX and network computers, thanks to a 100-percent Java-based implementation. This is a true cross- platform solution. The audio portion of the meeting is carried by a telephone conference call.
Nevertheless, Contigo wants to set itself apart from the competition through superior pre-meeting and post-meeting services. Pre-meeting activities include event advertising with coming-attraction previews and advance registration to help the presenter target her audience. Post-meeting surveys or audience-feedback polls can be integrated directly into such business applications as contact managers and databases. The service can even send thank-you notes, product literature or other correspondence to the participants by e-mail. Finally, the entire meeting (visuals and Java audio) can be recorded and played back for those who couldn't attend. This feature also makes Contigo a perfect solution for training applications.
Contigo meetings can be scheduled or ad hoc. For scheduled meetings, presenters create a guest list to approve or deny would-be participants. Slideshows in PowerPoint or Corel Presentations formats are uploaded to the meeting site, where they are converted into high-resolution Web pages for quick viewing by participants. Once meetings get started, all attendees can annotate and write on the whiteboard. Audioconferencing is accomplished by a simultaneous telephone conference call. Two important capabilities in the latest version are the Follow-Me application and Web Tours, which allow the presenter to give a live software demonstration or surf the Web with the attendees.

"Chapter 22: The Gifts of the Spirit," Gospel Principles, 141
Following baptism, each of us had hands laid on our heads to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. If we are faithful, we can have his influence constantly with us. Through him, each of us can be blessed with certain spiritual powers called gifts of the Spirit. These gifts are given to those who are faithful to Christ. They help us know and teach the truths of the gospel. They will help us bless others. They will guide us back to our Heavenly Father. To use our gifts wisely, we need to know what they are, how we can develop them, and how to recognize Satan's imitations of them.
The Gifts of the Spirit
The scriptures mention many gifts of the Spirit. These gifts have been given to members of the true Church whenever it has been on the earth (see Mark 16:16–18). The gifts of the Spirit include the following:
The Gift of Tongues (D&C 46:24)
Sometimes it is necessary to communicate the gospel in a language we have not learned. When this happens, the Lord can bless us with the ability to speak that language. Many missionaries have received the gift of tongues when there was a great need for it. For example, Elder Alonzo A. Hinckley was a missionary in Holland who understood and spoke very little Dutch even though he had prayed and studied hard. When he returned to a home he had visited before, a lady opened the door and spoke to him very angrily in Dutch. To his amazement he could understand every word. He felt a strong desire to bear his testimony to her in Dutch. He began to speak, and the words came out very clearly in Dutch. But when he returned to show his mission president that he could speak Dutch, the ability had left him. Many faithful members have been blessed with the gift of tongues. (See Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, 2:32–33.)
The Gift of Interpretation of Tongues (D&C 46:25)
This gift is sometimes given to us when we do not understand a language and we need to receive an important message from God. For example, President David O. McKay had a great desire to speak to the Saints in New Zealand without an interpreter. He told them that he hoped that the Lord would bless them that they could understand him. He spoke in English. His message lasted about forty minutes. As he spoke, he could tell by the expression on many of their faces and the tears in their eyes that they were receiving his message. (See Answers to Gospel Questions, 2:30–31.)
The Gift of Translation (D&C 5:4)
If we have been called by the leaders of the Church to translate the word of the Lord, we can receive a gift to translate beyond our natural ability. As with all gifts, we must live righteously, study hard, and pray to receive it. When we do these things, the Lord causes us to feel a burning inside concerning the correctness of the translation (see D&C 9:8–9). Joseph Smith had the gift of translation when he translated the Book of Mormon. This gift came to him only when he was in tune with the Spirit.
The Gift of Wisdom (D&C 46:17)
Some of us have been blessed with the ability to understand people and the principles of the gospel as they apply in our lives. We are told:
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
"But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
"For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord" (James 1:5–7).
The Lord said, "Seek not for riches but for wisdom, and behold, the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto you" (D&C 6:7).
The Gift of Knowledge (D&C 46:18)
Everyone who becomes like Heavenly Father eventually knows all things. The knowledge of God and his laws is revealed by the Holy Ghost (see D&C 121:26). We cannot be saved if we are ignorant of these laws (see D&C 131:6).
The Lord revealed, "If a person gains more knowledge and intelligence in this life through his diligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come" (D&C 130:19). The Lord has commanded us to learn as much as we can about his work. He wants us to learn about the heavens, the earth, things that have happened or will happen, things at home and in foreign lands (see D&C 88:78–79). However, there are those who try to gain knowledge by their own study alone. They do not ask for the help of the Holy Ghost. They are those who are always learning but never arrive at the truth (see 2 Timothy 3:7). When we receive knowledge by revelation from the Holy Ghost, his Spirit speaks to our minds and our hearts and we feel the truth burn within us (see D&C 8:2).
• What kinds of things should we learn about? (See also D&C 90:15.)
• Read 2 Nephi 9:28–29 and Doctrine and Covenants 88:118. What is the right way to gain knowledge?
The Gift of Teaching Wisdom and Knowledge (Moroni 10:9–10)
Some people are given a special ability to explain and testify of the truths of the gospel. This gift can be used when we teach a class. It can be used by parents to teach their children. This gift also helps us instruct others so they can understand the gospel.
• Why must we have the Spirit of the Lord to teach? (See D&C 42:14.)
The Gift of Knowing That Jesus Christ Is the Son of God (D&C 46:13)
This has been the gift of prophets and apostles who have been called as special witnesses of Jesus Christ. However, others are also given this gift. Every person can have a testimony. It usually comes through the whispering of the Holy Spirit but may come in a dream or vision. Elder Orson F. Whitney saw a vision of the Savior in Gethsemane. He saw the great suffering of the Savior, and it caused him to weep. Then the Savior took him into his arms and blessed him. (See Bryant S. Hinckley, The Faith of Our Pioneer Fathers, pp. 211–13.)
The Gift of Believing the Testimony of Others (D&C 46:14)
By the power of the Holy Ghost we may know the truth of all things. If we want to know whether someone else is speaking the truth, we must ask God in faith. If the thing we are praying about is true, the Lord will speak peace to our minds (see D&C 6:22–23). In this way we can know when someone else, even the prophet, has received revelation. Nephi asked the Lord to let him see, feel, and know that his father's dream was true (see 1 Nephi 10:17–19).
The Gift of Prophecy (D&C 46:22)
Those who receive true revelations about the past, present, or future have the gift of prophecy. Prophets have this gift, but we too can have it to help us govern our own lives (see 1 Corinthians 14:39). We may receive revelations from God for ourselves and our own callings, but never for the Church or its leaders. It is contrary to the order of heaven for a person to receive revelation for someone higher in authority. If we truly have the gift of prophecy, we will not receive any revelation that does not agree with what the Lord has said in the scriptures (see Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, 3:203–4).
The Gift of Healing (D&C 46:19–20)
Some have the faith to heal, and others have the faith to be healed. We can all exercise the faith to be healed when we are ill (see D&C 42:48). Many who hold the priesthood have the gift of healing the sick. Others may be given a knowledge of how to cure illness.
• Read Doctrine and Covenants 42:43–44. What should we do when we are ill?
The Gift of Working Miracles (D&C 46:21)
The Lord has blessed his people many times in miraculous ways. When the Utah pioneers planted their first crops, a plague of locusts nearly destroyed them. The pioneers prayed that the Lord would save their crops, and he sent sea gulls to devour the locusts. When we need help and ask in faith, if it is for our good the Lord will work miracles for us (see Matthew 17:20; D&C 24:13–14).
The Gift of Faith (Moroni 10:11)
The brother of Jared had great faith. Because of his faith, he received other gifts. His faith was so great that the Savior appeared to him (see Ether 3:9–15). Without faith, no other gift can be given. Moroni promises, "Whoso believeth in Christ, doubting nothing, whatsoever he shall ask the Father in the name of Christ it shall be granted him" (Mormon 9:21). We should seek to increase our faith, find out our gifts, and use them.
Some people lack faith and deny that these gifts of the Spirit actually exist. Moroni says to them:
"And again I speak unto you who deny the revelations of God, and say that they are done away, that there are no revelations, nor prophecies, nor gifts, nor healings, nor speaking with tongues, and the interpretation of tongues;
"Behold I say unto you, he that denieth these things knoweth not the gospel of Christ; yea, he has not read the scriptures; if so, he does not understand them" (Mormon 9:7–8).
We Can Develop Our Gifts
The Lord has said: "For all have not every gift given unto them; for there are many gifts, and to every man is given a gift by the Spirit of God. To some is given one, and to some is given another, that all may be profited thereby" (D&C 46:11–12).
To develop our gifts, we must find out which gifts we have. We do this by praying and fasting. We should seek after the best gifts (see D&C 46:8). Sometimes patriarchal blessings will tell us which gifts we have been given.
We must be obedient and faithful to be given our gifts. We then should use these gifts to do the work of the Lord. They are not given to satisfy our curiosity or to prove anything to us because we lack faith. Our gifts are to be used to build up the kingdom of God and to strengthen our testimonies.
Satan Imitates the Gifts of the Spirit
Satan can imitate the gifts of tongues, prophecy, visions, healings, and other miracles. Moses had to compete with Satan's imitations in Pharaoh's court (see Exodus 7:8–22). Satan wants us to believe in his false prophets, false healers, and false miracle workers. They may appear to be so real to us that the only way to know is to ask God for the gift of discernment. The devil himself can appear as an angel of light (see 2 Nephi 9:9).
Satan wants to blind us to the truth and keep us from seeking the true gifts of the Spirit. Mediums, astrologers, fortune tellers, and sorcerers are inspired by Satan even if they claim to follow God. Their works are abominable to the Lord (see Isaiah 47:12–14; Deuteronomy 18:9–10). We should avoid all associations with the powers of Satan.
We Must Be Careful with Our Gifts of the Spirit
The Lord said, "A commandment I give unto them, that they shall not boast themselves of these things, neither speak them before the world; for these things are given unto you for your profit and for salvation" (D&C 84:73). We must remember that spiritual gifts are sacred.
The Lord asks only one thing in return for giving us these gifts. He says, "Ye must give thanks unto God in the Spirit for whatsoever blessing ye are blessed with" (D&C 46:32).
Additional Scriptures
• 3 Nephi 29:6–7 (fate of those who deny gifts)
• Moroni 10:7–19 (gifts depend on faith)
• 1 Corinthians 12 (spiritual gifts)
• Acts 10 (a gift given at baptism)
• D&C 46:9–26 (gifts of the Spirit)
Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon by the power of the Spirit.
The brother of Jared had such great faith that he saw the finger of the Lord.

Welcome and opening remarks Dr. Philippa Marrack welcomes all council members, committee chairs, representatives of federations and affiliated organizations, and liaisons officers. 2. Minutes of the 47th council meeting (Vienna, October 2003) The minutes of the 47th council meeting are approved. There is no business arising from the minutes. 3. President's report Dr. Marrack thanks especially Drs. Dent and Kincade for their help concerning the completion of the Constitution and Bylaws of IUIS. 4. Secretary General's report Dr. Daha's report summarizes the activities of the IUIS central secretariat and business that concluded in the last 3 years. He mentions that the central secretariat of IUIS in Vienna, under the leadership of Sylvia Trittinger, functions very well and that all files and information about IUIS can now be found centrally. The Archives are held at a University in the USA and taken care of by Prof. Henry Metzger. The website of IUIS is functioning well. The IUIS central secretariat is giving more and more a "face" to IUIS. Other members of the ExCo and Council are also excited about the way business is conducted by our central office and Fritz Melchers is especially delighted about the fact that there is now a "memory" of IUIS. 5. Treasurer's report Dr. Smolen describes the state of income and expenses of IUIS in the budget year 2003. There is about $ 30,000 more income than budgeted originally. This is due to the income from a backlog in dues from earlier years that was paid in 2003. The standing committees and federations have received the budgeted amounts. The costs by the Executive Board and central office were lower than the budget. In the working account, there is now about $ 64.000, while there is an "iron reserve" parked at Merryl Lynch of about $ 300,000. Overall, there is some room in the operating budget that can be used when well-defined projects by committees and federations are submitted. A discussion then follows on what type of items

Water issue resolved
Posted by Lucy
Water issue resolved
"The water situation in Presho is good," said Mayor Mike Sprenger Monday morning from his office at BankWest Insurance. After confirmation from West River Lyman/Jones Water, Sprenger stated that the issue of more water going out of the Presho tower than coming in had been resolved. The concern over the weekend was that the tower was not staying full. Normally, water goes into the tower at about 170 gallons per minute, but over the weekend that number dropped to 140 gallons. Water for the Presho area comes from the Ft. Pierre intake on the Missouri River.

Lynette Parker: Listening to stories
"You don't know what it means to have a member of the community listen to my story before making his decision." One young man summed up his experience in a restorative conference with a community representative. Convicted of armed robbery, he had already served two years in prison and returned to his family when the conference took place. His statement reminded me of how powerful a restorative process can be.

The one hit wonders of classical music
Last night's peripatetic peregrination through the wild, wonderful world of recorded music (courtesy of Spotify) brought me to a series of albums called "One Hit Wonders." You've no doubt heard the term, which usually (as here) refers to the artists who made the pop record charts on only one occasion, never to make as big a noise again. One can fairly infer a touch of sadness and even condescension in the "one hit wonder" label, as if the artists were more to be pitied than celebrated. But just check out Volume 4, devoted to such early '60s smashes as Don & Juan's "What's Your Name," Harold Dorman's "Mountain of Love," Curtis Lee's "Pretty Little Angel Eyes," the Elegants' "Little Star," and the Bobbettes' sublime "Mr. Lee." These are some of the coolest platters of all time, conferring at least a degree of immortality upon their artists. And that's more than most of their contemporaries could claim.
Though it doesn't have any charts to top, classical music has its "one hit wonders" too. In all sub-genres, there are classical composers remembered today, even if dimly, for one and only one piece. Opera surely has them, including Pietro Mascagni (Cavalleria rusticana), Ruggero Leoncavallo (Pagliacci), Amilcare Ponchielli (La gioconda) and Engelbert Humperdinck (Hansel and Gretel). Sometimes, the hit isn't even the whole opera, it's a sole excerpt, such as the Overtures to Donna Diana (by Emil Nikolaus von Reznicek) or Zampa (by Louis-Ferdinand Hérold), or vocal numbers like "Im chambre separée" from Richard Heuberger's Der Opernball . One of our favorite piano CDs, Philip Martin's "The Maiden's Prayer and Other Gems from an Old Piano Stool" contains several one-hitters, such as Christian Sinding ("Rustle of Spring"), Anton Rubinstein ( Melody in F), Ignacy Jan Paderewski (Minuet in G) and the non-exactly-immortal Tekla Bądarzewska-Baranowska, composer of the sentimental chestnut that gives the CD its name.
The symphonic repertoire gives us such solitary successes as Johan Halvorsen's "Entry of the Boyars," Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov's "Caucasian Sketches" and Hugo Alfvén's Swedish Rhapsody No. 1, "Midsummer Vigil." Not that they didn't write other good stuff, just nothing else you're ever going to hear more than once in your life. For concertos, we've got Henryk Wieniawski's Violin Concerto No. 1, Henry Charles Litolff's Concerto Symphonique No. 4 for piano (especially its Scherzo) and the Trumpet Concertos by Johann Baptist Georg Neruda, Johann Nepomuk Hummel, and the recently-deceased Alexander Arutiunian.
Some composers are best-known for piece they didn't really compose, like Tomaso Albinoni and his Adagio (concocted by Italian musicologist Remo Giazotto) and Tomaso Vitali and his once-popular Chaconne (real composer unknown). Others had their one big hit mistakenly (or sometimes intentionally) misattributed to a better-known composer, like Jeremiah Clarke's "The Prince of Denmark's March" (aka Henry Purcell's "Trumpet Voluntary"), Gottfried Heinrich Stölzel's "Bist du bei mir" (usually attributed to J.S. Bach) and Roman Hofstetter's "Serenade" (from a set of string quartets palmed off as Joseph Haydn's). Then, friends, there's Johann Pachelbel and his ever-loving Canon. No accounting for it; there just is.
Again, I don't intend to pity or condescend to the above composers. After all, by virtue of their hit, they're still in the 99th percentile of all composers when it comes to enduring acclaim. In most cases, we go at least a little beyond their best-known work in WFCR's programming. But neither is "one hit wonder" a title to envy or aspire to. Perhaps that's why some composers, like Jean Sibelius (Valse triste) and Sergei Rachmaninoff (Prelude in C-sharp minor) developed bad attitudes about their biggest hits, fearing that these supposed trifles would overshadow their bigger and better stuff.
Any other one-hit wonders that I forgot? Let me know; we'll dig 'em up and play their biggest hits for you.

Dedicated by the Jacobs and Chill Families in Memory of Harold and Pearl JacobsDora Bas Rivka Silver O'H
Yitro - Sh'vi'i
Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb
I'm Not Doing THAT Again!
The people saw the sounds (you didn't misread that: they saw the sounds!) as well as the fire and everything else that was going on. They were terrified that the experience would literally be the death of them, so they told Moshe, "You know what? From now on, why don't you just talk to G-d and get the mitzvos for us?" (There's a difference of opinion as to when this exchange took place. It might have been after the first two commandments, when G-d switched from talking directly TO Israel to talking to Moshe ABOUT them, but it also might have occurred after the Sinai experience.) Moshe told the people not to worry, G-d had done that for their benefit, so that awe of Him would help to keep them from sin. Be that as it may, it was an experience they were not quick to replicate, so they kept their distance and let Moshe do the talking.
G-d told Moshe to tell the Jews that now that they had experienced Him, to be careful not to be led into the snare of idolatry. (We can't really grasp how tantalizing the lure of idolatry was back in those days.) G-d told the Jews to build an altar to sacrifice to Him. It could not be built with iron tools, as these were implements of war. The altar had to be approached by a ramp, rather than stairs. Stairs would cause the kohanim (priests) to "flash" a little skin, however minimal, which was unacceptably immodest in the context of the altar. (These three commands, given in the wake of the Sinai experience, correspond to the three cardinal sins - idolatry, murder and adultery - for which one must be prepared to perish rather than transgress.)

Thai Roll
A useful, decorator item
This handmade item is pleasing to the eye and useful in it's versatility and function. A winning combination.
December 7, 2013
Good idea - poor design
This is an attractive item, it appeared to fit a need - and the sale price seemed too good to be true. It was. I wanted a tight roll with a horizontal "prop" section in front. This was easier said than done. The best approach I found involved moving the beads out of the way, threading the tie line through a loop on one side, then the other; then tying off in back with something called a taut-line hitch which nestles securely between two rolls. This hitch (handy for tent stakes) is an adjustable knot for used to secure a line under tension to itself (see Wikipedia). Fortunately I've owned two sailboats and have experience with knots. Maybe I've missed something simple. This seemed too hard for what I wanted to do.

Perfect for Ipad & Books
My wife wanted it so she could use it to prop up her ipad & books anywhere she was. She Loves It!
July 20, 2013
Ridiculous Use
The straps on this are bad, don't hold well. The product is huge and not very portable. It could be a lot smaller, and a lot more functional. I don't use this to prop up books, rather I found one day that it provides good lumbar support. I have back pain/issues and cannot sit back in a chair, I'm also very small, but this is so large it gives me lumbar support, more so than other lumbar pillows I have used (when rolled up). If it weren't for this odd coincidence of utility, I would have returned the product upon receiving it, as there are many nice wood products that are cheaper, more portable, and hold the book open as well. This is not something I would ever use for what it is advertised to do, and I read for a living.
May 31, 2013
As advertised
The Thai Roll is as beautiful as it is functional. I love the workmanship on it, and it holds my Paperwhite beautifully. I can read for extensive periods of time without having to worry about my hands getting tired. I love it! I bought the red one for my best friend who also loves to read. She equated this to "the best thing since ..."
April 20, 2013
ok, but needs improvement
I like the concept, but the little silver knobs need to be changed to wood beads, or better yet, wood toggle 'buttons'. My cat chewed on one of the silver knobs and it broke in half. I replaced it with a wood bead, which she can chew on without effect. I like the idea of toggles since they would be easier to get in the loops.
December 11, 2012
Great gift
I chose this product despite the negative reviews because I knew my partner would like it, and I knew Levenger would take it back if it wasn't perfect. My partner is very happy with it because of the styling and versatility, and I played around with it to check the quality of the workmanship and found it to be very good. Maybe the first batch had problems, no idea, but the one received is a keeper.
September 16, 2012
Great so far...
I got this despite the negative review. i really wanted to have something that was adjustable for the ipad. I have used it for the ipad, and also lay it flat on my lap for my laptop. It protects my legs from the heat. It looks great, and so far works pretty good. If anything, i may stitch up the loops a bit so they are tighter. The knobs do sometimes come loose. I have no issues with quality of the workmanship - can't see the stuffing, stitching is fine. I have the green and it's very nice looking - nice green color.
September 12, 2012
Beautiful idea but...
...sadly did not honor my great expectation for this product. I purchased this Thai Roll in both colors as gifts to accompany the latest iPad for my son and daughter's graduation! I desired a complete iPad outfit and was so excited. Both pads did not come close to functioning as description promised. Slippage of the straps disabled ability to properly hold up the iPad. The little silver beads cracked with no provocation. The beads lent a subtle exotic detail which added a complimentary feature we could not enjoy. My low rating reflects my disappointment with my experience for we cannot use the Thai Pads. I must say this is not my usual experience with Levenger products. I greatly appreciate and admire Levenger's innovative, and evolving presence. This faulty product experience is an exception to the greater rule of Levenger's superlative product quality and "golden" customer satisfaction.
August 24, 2012
Thai Roll
This is a shabby product. The little buttons slip out of the loops and you can see the stuffing through the seams. I cant figure out how to make it hold an iPad without supporting it with my knees. It's a nice idea but the construction and design are poor.

I couldn't find any speculation about these things.
Can PS3 make the PS2 games looking better and how?
-Better framerate?
-Calculate better lightning and shadows?
-Loading faster?
-Increasing AA or FSAA?
-Sharper textures?
-Something else?
The games may infact run a bit faster and if you have a hdtv you can probably expect some upscaling on the res. other than that your probably not going to be noticing to much.
There's quite a lot about it in this thread:Originally Posted by Hawk
Faster loading times, getting rid of some slowdowns, resolution upscaling and applying some more filters to a greater extent seem possible to me. I'd be really glad if these options were available on PS3 for PS2 games.
I guess things like greater draw distance or all games running at 60fps won't happen though.
PSN ID: VGAficionado
Yeah draw distance and 60fps arent going to happen, at least Im not sure as to how they would.
Some developers could release patches for some games to enable those features, but I don't really expect this to happen many times, if any.Originally Posted by woundingchaney
PSN ID: VGAficionado
Right but outside of a patch its not going to be a plug and play feature. I seriously doubt we see any devs patching old gen games but you never know. Is the PS3 bc through emulation, I was wonderinag about this due to the hardware and architecture found in the PS3??
It'd probably do to the PS2 games what the PS2 did to PSone games. Smooth out the textures and speed up load-times.Though this time they should make the option more prevalent and not hide it like on the PS2.
On the 360 what I have seen is faster loads, way better AA and espacially when upscaled, Plus their is a little better draw distance. You can also see fine details a lot better in high def, anybody that has played GT4 on a regular TV then played it at 1080p has seen this. So that is what I would expect, HD by itself helps about 20% increase.
^^^ GT4 only runs at 1080i... still rocks though
We the people...
AFAIK, not even GT4 is running at 1080i, but upscaling a lower resolution up to that.
Whoops... to much time talking about the PS3 has made that "p" stick in my mind, but yeah I ment 1080i and yes it still looks sweet.
@MetalSphere: It does infact run at 1080i. This has been discussed in to many threads to mention.
PSN: Sephiroth_VII
We don't know yet, but I think it will have the PS2 processors on it, because the PS2 has the PS1 processors.Originally Posted by woundingchaney
if it can enhance ps2 games what about ps1 games?
I'd like to think 0 load times period since pretty much any PS1 game can easily fit into system RAM. Although load times are sometimes necessary since they give out tips and objectives sometimes.Originally Posted by cliffbo
I don't think upscaling to 1080p would be very difficult, though you would still have to deal with the low resolution textures.

KIRKSVILLE, MO. -- The Adair County Humane Society is looking for donations for their campaign "Be a Pal-Prevent a Litter." There is an interesting twist this year which might give you more incentive to donate.
"A local donor is going to match dollar for dollar all donations up to $1,000 before Valentine's Day. So show your love to the animals by February 14th. The campaign is in its 4th year. We've done the March prevent a litter campaign. In 3 years we've spay and neutered 500 animals so we say we kept 500 animals into to turning into 2,500 animals so just the effort to spay and neuter the local animals is a big deal." Said Bridgete Thomas
Grant money that is usually allocated for this campaign might not be offered this year, so donations are more important than ever and donating has never been easier.
"You can donate online now that's a relatively new thing. We've got donation buttons both on the web page which is www.adairhumane.org. Also on our blog spot which is www.preventalitter.blogspot.com/. So you can donate. It's safe it's easy. It's through pay pal. You can use a pay pal account or pay through credit card. So that's easy you can also pay a check to P.O. box 481 at Kirksville Missouri or you can drop it by the shelter" She said.
The "Be a Pal-Save a Litter" program has been a valuable resource in the past. Last year, 140 $50 certificates for spaying or neutering were given away in just one day. The links to donate are below.


text: I apologize if this topic has already been started but I'm on my BB storm so its hard and inconvenient to wade through other threads to check. So I was in borders and I saw the magazine that said 100% new info guaranteed and yes three is some good info in it. Has anyone else read this spread and want to discuss?

83342 :
ThinPrep Screen with Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Reflex
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix is believed to develop in progressive stages from normal through precancerous (dysplastic) stages, to carcinoma in situ, and eventually invasive carcinoma. This sequence is felt to develop over a matter of years in most patients.
Follow up of the cervical Pap abnormality "atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS)" is costly and frustrating to patients and clinicians because a large percentage of these patients have normal colposcopic and biopsy findings. Yet, a significant percentage (10%-15%) will have an underlying high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL).
The majority (>99%) of cervical epithelial neoplasms are the result of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. "High-risk" HPV types (16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 68) can result in both low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and HSIL, as well as invasive carcinomas. Patients with HSIL have a greater risk for progression to carcinoma.
In the setting of an abnormal Pap result, the presence of high-risk HPV types in cervical specimens identifies a subgroup of patients with a greater likelihood of having a HSIL.
If the patient has been previously diagnosed with an abnormal Pap result or is at high risk, considering ordering the diagnostic test (83343 ThinPrep Diagnostic with Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Reflex) rather than this screen.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Management and triage of patients, age 21 or greater, with abnormal Pap results
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Standard reporting, as defined by the Bethesda System (TBS) is utilized.
Human papillomavirus (HPV):
A positive test result indicates the presence of 1 or more of the high-risk HPV types (16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59 or 68).
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
The Pap test is a screening test for cervical cancer with inherent false-negative results. A negative human papillomavirus (HPV) test or Pap smear result does not preclude the presence of carcinoma. The false-negative rates of the Pap test range from 15% to 30%; the false-negative rate of the HPV test (Digene, Hybrid Capture II) is 1.1% to 7.5%.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Satisfactory for evaluation. Negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy.
Note: Abnormal results will be reviewed by a pathologist at an additional charge.
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

This section provides help with common queries and areas of functionality in MySQL and how to use them with Connector/ODBC.
Obtaining the value of column that uses
after an
statement can be
achieved in a number of different ways. To obtain the value
immediately after an INSERT
use a SELECT
query with the
For example, using Connector/ODBC you would execute two
separate statements, the INSERT
statement and the SELECT
to obtain the auto-increment value.
INSERT INTO tbl (auto,text) VALUES(NULL,'text'); SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID();
If you do not require the value within your application, but
do require the value as part of another
, the entire process can
be handled by executing the following statements:
INSERT INTO tbl (auto,text) VALUES(NULL,'text'); INSERT INTO tbl2 (id,text) VALUES(LAST_INSERT_ID(),'text');
Certain ODBC applications (including Delphi and Access) may have trouble obtaining the auto-increment value using the previous examples. In this case, try the following statement as an alternative:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE auto IS NULL;
This alternative method requires that
variable is
not set to 0. See Section 5.1.4, "Server System Variables".
See also Section 22.214.171.124, "How to Get the Unique ID for the Last Inserted Row".
Support for the dynamic cursor
is provided
in Connector/ODBC 3.51, but dynamic cursors are not enabled by
default. You can enable this function within Windows by
selecting the Enable Dynamic Cursor
box within the ODBC Data Source Administrator.
On other platforms, you can enable the dynamic cursor by
adding 32
to the OPTION
value when creating the DSN.
The Connector/ODBC driver has been optimized to provide very fast performance. If you experience problems with the performance of Connector/ODBC, or notice a large amount of disk activity for simple queries, there are a number of aspects to check:
Ensure that ODBC Tracing
is not
enabled. With tracing enabled, a lot of information is
recorded in the tracing file by the ODBC Manager. You can
check, and disable, tracing within Windows using the
Tracing panel of the ODBC Data
Source Administrator. Within Mac OS X, check the
Tracing panel of ODBC
Administrator. See
Section 220.127.116.11, "Getting an ODBC Trace File".
Make sure you are using the standard version of the driver, and not the debug version. The debug version includes additional checks and reporting measures.
Disable the Connector/ODBC driver trace and query logs. These options are enabled for each DSN, so make sure to examine only the DSN that you are using in your application. Within Windows, you can disable the Connector/ODBC and query logs by modifying the DSN configuration. Within Mac OS X and Unix, ensure that the driver trace (option value 4) and query logging (option value 524288) are not enabled.
For more information on how to set the query timeout on Microsoft Windows when executing queries through an ODBC connection, read the Microsoft knowledgebase document at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B153756.

be very carefult with this "feature":
Certain ODBC applications (including Delphi and Access) may have trouble obtaining the auto-increment value using the previous examples. In this case, try the following statement as an alternative:
SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE auto IS NULL;
for those of us that do not use Access or Delphi, this is a huge trap, because if you do this:
insert into table_a (id, name) values(null, 'jonny');
select * from table_a where id is null;
id name
1 jonny
this is WRONG!! there is no row with id=null, because column "id" is typically "not null and primary key" as well as "auto_increment", so "primary is null" should never return any ROW! It is just a screwed up feature to be compatible with Access/ODBC.
What is even more crazy is that this works ACROSS tables!
insert into table_b (id, size) values(null, 'big');
select * from table_a where id is null;
id name
222 somename
where 222 is the id of the new record in "table_b", so this is retrieving what can only be described as a "random row".
This really caught us out because we then proceed to delete the retrieved row...so we were effectively deleting random rows out of the database.
of course you can turn off this madness by
set sql_auto_is_null = 0;
which I suggest EVERYONE who is not using Access/ODBC should do.
Respectfully suggest to mysql devs that this "feature" be OFF by default and documented heavily in connector/ODBC which is the only place it might be useful. For everyone else it is just dangerous.

Cheers to salesman Chris Blanton and the installing crew at Arnold Service Co., who installed two new heat pumps for us a year ago. They promised a significant utility savings so we purposely waited a year to compare the savings and found our utility bills now average almost 30 percent less than before. Thanks for delivering what you promised.

Jeers to a bank. My husband got a check for an insurance clam, and the bank held it for 10 days and then told him that they did not have enough available funds to take care of the check. What bank does not have enough money to write a cashiers check?

Jeers to a local car dealership. After making an appointment a week prior while home from Afghanistan, my husband was told after arriving on time at the dealership, those who would wait had priority. Why bother making an appointment in the first place? Businesses here in Fayetteville pride themselves on military support, yet while home for a week from Afghanistan, trying to get vehicle safe for me (his wife), he was jerked around for more than 9 hours for just an inspection of an issue. Also, the service department was rude and unhelpful.

VDub is there! +5 Metalio Bovinus(Hate to have to write this twice, well alteat I can edit it...) PS. One of the best editors I have seen, though, It has a little learning curve,... But don't be scared away by that. Just jump in and help out all you can or support this "collage kid". After all google was a bunch of collage kids, this is just one.
Brilliant piece of work. Very useful when combining thousands of images into a movie.
I love this! I have been using this as a fast(ish), convenient video tool for almost 2 years now!!
I use this program quite a lot. It's very handy to fix up video files and also to join or cut out video parts. I always make sure I have VirtualDub after I reinstall my OS.
I really like this kind of app. How come it is free? Am i missing something?

Since there seems to be quite a few football fans on this board. Why not let us see who every one think's will make it to this years Super Bowl? Mine will be a repeat. I think it will be the Green Bay Packers vs the Pittsburgh Steelers. I like the Packers pretty good, but I despise the Steelers. So I hope I am wrong. The Packers still seem almost unstoppable,and the Steelers always seem to manage to get there. Plus if the Packers get a decent running game,watch out. Clay Matthews is a BEAST. Pender |

Picking teams to make it to the Super Bowl is really hard. There is a lot of parity. Baseball is so much easier. Way back in February, you would have to have been blind to not see that Boston was the best in the AL, and Philly the best in the NL, and sure enough, that is the way it is playing out. But I guess that wasn't the question. It really pains me to say it, but I have a feeling that NE will snap their playoff slump and make it in the AFC. Philly has added some good pieces in the NFC, but I'm not sure they will all fit together. GB gets a lot of players that were hurt last year back, so I think they will be back. But really, the way the NFL is, it could just as easily be Baltimore and Tampa Bay. Heck, if the Giants would have punted away from DeSean Jackson last year, the Packers wouldn't have even made the playoffs. One play changes the entire season. Gotta love it. |

***GASP**** I agree with Tim. Very tough year to pick. I have to think NE will be a team to beat, and I'm anxious to see the impact Ocho Cinco may have with Brady throwing to him. There's also some teams I think will show marked improvement possibly even teams like Detroit and Arizona. GB will be a force if Finley returns and stays healthy. Best TE in the NFL IMO. I'll make my picks before the season starts but after the pre-season games. |

Let's make this a little interesting without absolutely nothing to lose. If anybody can name the two teams that will play in the Super Bowl this year (the 2011 season), I will send them free of charge a Trailhead Graphics Civil War Battlefield map - your choice of map. All picks must be made before the first game between New Orleans and Green Bay on Thursday, Sept. 8, and you can only pick once. If you make a pick and then change your mind (like if you take NE today and Brady breaks his leg in the second exhibition - oops, I mean pre-season game), I will take your last pick before Sept. 8. I'm going to make a pick also, but I already have the maps. We're not looking for the Super Bowl winner - just the two participants. This is strictly for fun and to create a little football talk to go with our CW fix. I won't send anybody the cash value of a map - so don't ask. Good luck!

TimK, Never have been a Steelers fan. But might just pull for them to make it to the Super Bowl to get those maps. Not to get on the band wagon of the Super Bowl champ Packers. I can pull for them very easy. I growed up watching the Pack my dad has been a Packer fan as long as I can remember. Well saturday night is the big night. First preseason game for the Carolina Panthers. I can not wait to see what Cam Newton does. Can not believe the Gaints let Steve Smith go. would have liked the Panthers to have got him. Could have been Smith and Smith down in Carolina. Pender |

I don't see how you can go against the Packers, they managed to win it all with several key players missing. Even with the Eagles' additions, I don't think they stack up with Green Bay. The AFC seems pretty wide open. I don't want to buy into all the hype with New England just yet, but I also see the Steelers taking a step back. Yet I don't know who's going to step up and take their spot. |

First week of pre-season is over. Any thoughts on anybody that looked particularly good or bad? Carolina fans - Cam Newton had a good first pre-season game against the Giants. Should Canton start working on his bust? |

First pre-season game doesn't tell you much, but I can say I like my Texans defense. Looking much better than previous years. Newton did look good - Clausen looked like a clod. If their coach starts Clausen, he should be run out of town. Giants offense looked poor. Phillip Rivers looked sharp. Need to see more.... |

Thought Cam Newton looked very good. Especially, since it was his first time in pro football even though it is preseason. I think Greg Olsen will really help out this year. If Clausen does not show more and Newton keep's doing good in preseason I think he should definitely start. I think he can give em a burst of energy that Clausen can't. But it is still about to early to tale what's what. Missed Denver's game. How did Tebow look? I agree with Javal, Texan's D looked better.

I like Detroit, too. The defense looks nasty. Stafford needs to stay healthy to have a shot at a wild card. They look better than Chicago and Minnesota, but not as good or as experienced as Green Bay. Probably more appropriate for a different thread, but it looks like Vick will be able to start to pay off creditors from his bankruptcy with his new contract. It's all good - huh, Joe? |

Well men, I believe the Panthers have em a QB. Over 400 yards in first 2 games. What you all think of Newton's game play? I know he throwed some int's, but he was up against the super bowl champ Pack. All in All Newton's really impressed me. Still think the Packers are Super Bowl bound. Love seeing the Colts get whipped. The Texans spanked em first week. Who is impressing you guys? Pender P.S. Where's Carolinas running game? |
