Hexus are my other go to site after TPU. Very down to earth and very unbiased. They ran the 7970 at the 680's gpu boost speed. At 1200p the 7970 gives 94.2% of the 680 and at 1600p it gets 96.8%. Clock for clock (like we all know) the GTX 680 is still the faster card (just!). And something we ought to remember is it does it consuming less power. Something AMD guys have been bragging about for ages. Link: http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphics/37209-geforce-gtx-680-vs-radeon-hd-7970-clocks/ Kind of annoys me I can preorder a w/c 680 for £10 less than i can buy a w/c 7970. Someone just tell me to buy the Powercolor LCS 7970 (my impatience has been building since January).
I would go for a nvidia card over a amd any day just for the driver support, I had 2 HD 7970s and they were good cards but there drivers were really poor.
Yeah, I know all about your experiences (followed your posts ). I'd like to hear some more feedback on single gpu set ups. I'd not go sli or crossfire again just because of the uncertainty and the fact for one screen, the outlay in cost is not worth the performance improvement. I was waiting to get a watercooled 7970 but I've seen soooooooooooooooooo many negative articles about AMD drivers that it's bumped my confidence. I guess I've waited since January so a few more days to get a watercooled 680 wouldn't kill me.
Since I got my second 6870, I've had absolutely no issue with running games in Crossfire. I think the driver argument is a little flakey because I've never had this "instability" that everyone talks about with AMD drivers. What did you do to make the driver become unstable and was it reproducible?
to tell the truth. i don't care too much if it's amd or nv now I just want the card can CF/SLI in windows.
Single GPU setups are fine on AMD drivers just don't run 120hz monitors. What about a 7970 DCII with the new EK DCII block? Overclocks to 1300Mhz, more or less, naturally it can't be guaranteed for every chip. http://www.bjorn3d.com/news/EK-FC7970_DCII_for_ASUS_HD7970-DC2T-3GD5_tested/1463.html
You also have no frame of reference though - i.e. the drivers from AMD are 'ok' but the ones from Nvidia are much better. Reviewers will often do side by side comparisons. In general what happens is when the AMD drivers work, they work great, but the support is not for as many games as NV. Also, NV tends to release profiles BEFORE a new big title comes out, whereas AMD tends to do it some time after. To add to this, you have an older gen card, so by definition your drivers are much less 'flaky' than the guys running 7 series crossfire.
I would like to say 680 hands down due to the horrible drivers and random game performance my 7970 DCUII has (lets not even mention the constant flickers), but I don't own one yet. Right now I can say getting smooth performance out of a 7970 is pure luck (Had a Gigabyte 7970 as well, no better than my DCUII and it had a huge coil whine as a bonus). I don't jump ship much, but after my long(ish, compared to some) line of cards, 9800Pro - X850XT - 1950Pro - 8800GTX - 4850 - < Crossfired - GTX295 - HD5870 and finally HD7970's, I can say the Nvidia series gave me the least trouble, especially with dual monitor setups, the 8800GTX did need a HR-03 to be brought down to bearable noise levels though and the 295 never really got bearable lol
so you are saying they are better cards than what is offered by todays drivers? So why go nVidia over AMD anyday? you just said 7970's were good cards therefore with better drivers they are what.. great.. amazing.. cards??
Is this the pissing thread. Really thier both nice card and both have issues Really I would take ether one. The competition is very close and thats whats important. It means lower prices for all !
Please keep the discussion civil. The reason why Nvidia vs AMD threads are frowned upon and end up locked is because such topics always degenerate to flaming and insults. Don't disappoint me for not having locked this thread. There'll be no further warnings.
I thought that it's almost impossible to have a clock per clock comparison since you cannot fix the values for the GTX680. They are constantly adapting to load based on the offset value.
I find it funny that W1z review shows a 6% overall difference and a 4% difference at 2560x1600 while their review shows more than double that percent variation. 14% overall and 12% at 2560x1600. It makes it hard to take them seriously in this comparison because they're basically overclocking the 7970 and showing the same variation than W1z did with both at stock. then you take into account the fact that clock matching is impossible and they really do look silly. even so between the cards at their current price it's a no brainer 680. Faster overall and cheaper while using less power. AMD really needs to drop the price on their 7 series.
No disrespect to W1z but as a scientific approach you take as many reviews as possible to come to a conclusion. W1z is utterly impartial and thorough and that is why we like and trust him. And he has a sense of humour. But there are other good reviewers out there so it's important to take an average and not rely on one person (who may have had a poor card or a software glitch or whatever). This review is poor as an example - just look at the games used. Very limited and only uses 1080p. http://www.ocaholic.ch/xoops/html/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=703&sel_lang=english
Thats sad too. As a reviewer myself who doesnt go through NEARLY the effort TPU/W1zz does (we dont have the funds to support our entire review team with games for their benchmarks so most of ours are free with benchmarks), I find it a bit shocking to have it come in to question. This is the FIRST place I go to to look at reviews on ANY product. I didnt look at that Hexus article, but I have a funny feeling there were some obvious differences in either, settings of the game, resolution (1080p vs 1200), or even the system used. So in most cases its silly to even try to compare one review off another and expect an apples to apples comparison.
spoke like a fool, AMD'sdriver department is working fine and well, as ever they brought out a new card ,then perfected / optimised the drivers, and before you say it ,no AMD are not perfect ,neither are nvidia when it comes to drivers ive bought both brands on day one and found i had issues for the first few months, my 5870 was a biatch with some games , it has been faultless for most of the time ive had it, only a fool would buy something like that and expect perfection from the off and x2 sorry sounds agro at you but i hear this shit continuously ,and its fanboy BS, both driver teams can be faulted but on the whole they do both do well

Precipitation — or the lack of precipitation — is going to be big in 2013.
Colorado Springs Utilities, which provides monthly updates on the water situation, told the Utilities Board last week that outdoor watering restrictions and maybe even a water rate increase may be needed next year.
In the meantime, the city-owned utility is offering the following winter water tips:
Winter watering
If you've ever experienced the discouragement of lawn winter kill or dead landscape plants in spring, try winter watering. Even though landscape plants are dormant and brown, they need to be watered periodically. Dry winter months often kill plants through dehydration. By winter watering, your lawn and landscape plants will have a much better chance of greening up beautifully when the warm weather of spring returns.
A word to the wise, too. Shrubs and trees that don't receive regular water will search for hydration on their own, oftentimes in your wastewater pipes. Roots are a common cause of pipe damage, and repairs can be messy and costly. Service lines are the homeowner's responsibility, so have pipes checked at least once a year or more if you live in a long-established, heavily-treed neighborhood.
Finally, keep in mind that your wastewater bill is calculated using the amount of water used Dec. 1 through the last day of February.
When to water
– Choose a warm winter day with air temperature above 40 degrees F and unfrozen soil.
– Water one to two times per month from November to April.
– It is most critical to water in March and April when the new roots are forming.
– Water at mid-day so it can soak in before it freezes.
What to water
– It is most important to water newly planted lawns, trees, shrubs and flowers.
– Established lawn areas and trees, especially those in sunny, windy, or exposed areas should also be a high priority.
– Established shrubs, flowers, ornamental grasses and groundcovers will also benefit.
– Do not winter water cacti, succulents, buffalograss, blue grama and very xeric plants.
How to water
– Use a hose-end sprinkler or watering wand since automatic sprinkler systems are off during the winter.
– Remove the hose from the spigot after watering to prevent freeze damage.
– Water slowly so it can soak in.
– To figure out how long to water, put out cups to catch some of the water. Water until you can measure 0.5 to 1" deep in the cups.
Water leaks turn drops into dollars
Some facts about water leaks from the Environmental Protection Agency:
– Leaks can account for, on average, 10,000 gallons of water wasted in the home every year, which is enough to fill a backyard swimming pool.
– The amount of water leaked from U.S. homes could exceed more than 1 trillion gallons per year. That's equivalent to the annual water use of Los Angeles, Chicago, and Miami combined.
– Ten percent of homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons or more per day.
– Common types of leaks found in the home include leaking toilet flappers, dripping faucets, and other leaking valves. All are easily correctable.
– Fixing easily corrected household water leaks can save homeowners more than 10 percent on their water bills.
– Keep your home leak-free by repairing dripping faucets, toilet valves, and showerheads. In most cases, fixture replacement parts don't require a major investment and can be installed by do-it-yourselfers.
– The vast majority of leaks can be eliminated after retrofitting a household with new WaterSense labeled fixtures and other high-efficiency appliances.
Isn't is wonderful CSU encourages us to water our lawn, trees and shrubs in the winter. Then they are turn around and charge us for a waste water useage based on the avarge over the three winter months. So we end up paying more for this increased useage all year long.
They should offer a couple of days in each winter month to water trees and shrubs and not have it be used in our waste water calculation. they have the ability to moniter our water useage by the day.
Are you seroius. How much would it cost you to replace your entire yard. Watering once or twice a month would impact your bill by pennies. You don't have to.

I've been looking for some discussion of the religious motivations behind the new nation of Kosovo but have been disappointed to see it left out of most media coverage. In fact, the headline for today's frontpager in the LA Times was "Kosovo takes a big leap of faith," but only offered this reference to religion:
Most of Kosovo's nearly 2 million people are Muslim but are largely secular and pro-Western. Serbia is an Orthodox Christian nation with historical cultural ties to the Kosovo region, part of the reason it is so valued by Belgrade.
As I imagined, GetReligion has gotten around to a pretty good run down of the the centuries-old conflict. See, the Balkans are viciously, well, balkanized among Albanian Muslims, Croat Catholics and Orthodox Christian Serbs.
(Coincidentally, I spent a bit of time writing about this yesterday for an article for this week's Jewish Journal about a Muslim from Macedonia who was the first to speak at the Orthodox seminary and helped diffuse a near civil war six years ago. I'm also reading "A Problem From Hell: America and the Age of Genocide," a Pulitzer Prize winner that began with Samantha Power's years reporting on the Serbian massacres of Muslims in Sarajevo.)
Here, Terry Mattingly of GetReligion quotes from a 1999 column he wrote trying to give context to the Balkans problem and the thugocracy of the late Communist ruler Slobodan Milosevic.
The roots of this crisis are astonishingly complex, ancient and bloody. . . . In 1389, Serbian armies fought â virtually to the death â while losing the Battle of Kosovo, but managed to stop the Ottoman Empire from reaching into Europe. The Kosovo Plain became holy ground.
Leap ahead to World War II, when Nazi Germany tried to use Albanian Muslims and Catholic Croats to crush the Serbs. Then Communists â such as Milosevic â took over. In the mid-1990s, the United States all but encouraged Croat efforts to purge Serbs from Krajina, where they had lived for 500 years. The West has been silent as Turkey expelled waves of Eastern Orthodox Christians.
Since morphing from Communist to nationalist, Milosevic has skillfully used Serbiaâs array of fears, hatreds and resentments to justify terror in Kosovo and elsewhere by his paramilitary and police units. The Serbian strongman knows that Kosovo contains 1,300 churches and monasteries, many of them irreplaceable historic sites.
Retired New York Times editor A.M. Rosenthal, who once won a Pulitzer Prize for his reporting in Eastern Europe, put it this way: âI do not get emotional about the history of Kosovo. I am not a Serb. Serbs do. . . . Serbs are as likely to give up Kosovo willingly because the Albanians want it as Israelis are to give up Jerusalem because the Arabs want it.â

Translated from Farsi in the February issue of Harper's, an Iranian journalist's reaction to director Oliver Stone's interest in shooting a documentary of President/nut job Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
In light of the history of measures by Western media against Iran's Islamic system and the dominant influence of global Zionism on that media empire, being optimistic about Oliver Stone's request or hoping that he refrains from deliberate manipulations would be an irreparable mistake.
Oliver Stone is the director of the film Alexander, about Alexander of Macedon. Because of Alexander's overthrow of the Achaemenid dynasty and the savage mass killings carried out by his army, he is hated by Iranians. Throughout his film World Trade Center, Stone tried to show 9/11 as an attack by the world of Islam against the West. The Doors commemorated one of America's most perverted, half-mad singers, who enjoyed urinating on the heads of his fans during concerts. ]FK drew a picture of John F. Kennedy as a political saint, as ordered by America's Democratic Party. The film played an undeniable role in Bill Clinton's successful run for the White House. In Nixon, an overthrown and warmongering president who initiated several conflicts is shown as an innocent and blameless individual. All these facts leave no room for doubt concerning Oliver Stone's allegiance to America's key policies, even if some groups, out of ignorance, call him an independent filmmaker.
How can we voluntarily go under this filmmaker's knife? The outcome of such a venture will not be a realistic portrayal of Ahmadinejad the intellectual and peacemaker but a portrait of Ahmadinejad according to Stone, Hollywood, and global Zionism.
Yeah, if Ahmadinejad looks bad, it's the Jews fault. That lovable old dictator is really a pretty decent guy ...

I get Vanity Fair, but I guess I missed this article in November. Like this post last month, it revolves around Rich Cohen. But also like this piece, it adds a spice of Hitler.
The Toothbrush mustache is the most powerful configuration of facial hair the world has ever known. It overpowers whoever touches it. By merely doodling a Toothbrush mustache on a poster, you make a political statement. Actually wearing a Hitler mustache, as I planned to doâwell, that is like yelling racial epithets in a crowded subway. Wasn't Hitler amazing? Whatever he touched turned to ice. His life ended the long and fabled career of the name Adolf, which had included the stories of Adolph Zukor, Adolphe Menjou, Adolph Ochs, and Adolph Coors. Never again will a pregnant mother innocently consider the name for her son, or imagine shouting it across a teeming playground. As for the Toothbrush mustache, it did not only die with the Führerâit was embalmed with him. It was his essence, and so it has been relegated to the black book of history.
This is the part where I am supposed to explain just why I decided to write this story now. I might talk about the re-emergence of facial hair on the world stage, or the rise of the "new anti-Semitism," or Holocaust denial in Iran, but, the fact is, my interest in the Hitler mustache never started and never ends. It is always. If you're a Jew, the Hitler mustache exists in the eternal present. I grew it for the same reason Richard Pryor said the word "n——-." I wanted to defuse it. I wanted to own it. I wanted to reclaim it for America and for the Jews. My name is Rich Cohen, and I wear a Hitler mustache.

Stories like this reminds me that militant Islamist groups—not to be confused with righteous Muslims—don't just hate Jews and Israel, but all who disagree with their vision for world supremacy. (Remember what Hamas did to its Fatah brothers in June?)
A band of 14 masked gunmen forced its way into YMCA offices in the Gaza Strip and exploded a library there, Israel Radio reported Friday.
Thousands of books were reportedly burnt in the ensuing fire. The YMCA in Gaza also operates a gym and a wedding hall.
The gunmen laid a second explosive device near a computer in the library but it failed to detonate. Two security guards on the scene were not able to block the intruders; they were taken by them from the YMCA and later released in the northern Gaza Strip.
The latest incident is another link in an ongoing chain of attacks against Palestinian Christians which has worsened since Hamas took power of the Gaza Strip last June.

Sometimes Americans United for Separation of Church and State is misguided in its zeal. But, in this case, the one lacking wisdom was Pastor Wiley S. Drake, who last week used First Baptist Church of Buena Park letterhead and an affiliated radio program to endorse Mike Huckabee for president. That's a violation of tax laws for nonprofits, and Americans United filed a complaint. Drake response was a bit vengeful.
In an e-mail Thursday, Drake urged action against Americans United and the American Civil Liberties Union.
As he had in August, Drake quoted Psalm 109, which speaks of wicked and deceitful people and asks God to let such a person's days be few and let his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.
"In light of the recent attack from the enemies of God, I ask the children of God to go into action with imprecatory prayer," he wrote.
Imprecatory prayers have been defined as praying for someone's misfortune or as appeals to God for justice.
The Rev. Barry W. Lynn, Americans United executive director, called Drake's appeal to his supporters "reckless and repugnant."
"Introducing this kind of religious extremism into American life is reprehensible," he said.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is planning on declaring the two soldiers kidnapped by Hizbullah in the summer of 2006 dead, the German weekly magazine, Der Spiegel reported on Saturday.
According to the report, no date has yet been set for an official announcement on the subject, but unnamed sources told the magazine that they expect it to be made soon.Although the Prime Minister's Office did not immediately respond to the report, a government official told Israel Radio that there was still no new, definitive information about kidnapped IDF soldiers Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev.
The official added that Israel still believes that the two reservists are alive, and continues in negotiations with Hizbullah through mediators.
This report's veracity seems questionable. But then, sadly, so does hope at this point.

PARIS â President Nicolas Sarkozy dropped an intellectual bombshell this week, surprising the nation and touching off waves of protest with his revision of the school curriculum: beginning next fall, he said, every fifth grader will have to learn the life story of one of the 11,000 French children killed by the Nazis in the Holocaust.
âNothing is more moving, for a child, than the story of a child his own age, who has the same games, the same joys and the same hopes as he, but who, in the dawn of the 1940s, had the bad fortune to be defined as a Jew,â Mr. Sarkozy said at the end of a dinner speech to Franceâs Jewish community on Wednesday night. He added that every French child should be âentrusted with the memory of a French child-victim of the Holocaust.â
Adding to the national fracas over the announcement, Mr. Sarkozy wrapped his plan in the cloak of religion, placing blame for the wars and violence of the last century on an âabsence of Godâ and calling the Nazi belief in a hierarchy of races âradically incompatible with Judeo-Christian monotheism.â
Education Minister Xavier Darcos explained later that the aim of the plan was to âcreate an identification between a child of today and one of the same age who was deported and gassed.â
The Holocaust is already taught in French schools, but some psychiatrists and educators predicted that requiring students to identify with a specific victim would traumatize them.
Secularists accused Mr. Sarkozy, who is already under fire for his frequent praise of God and religion, of subverting both the countryâs iron-clad separation of church and state and the national ideal of a single, nonreligious identity for all.
Political opponents dismissed the plan as his latest misguided idea, unveiled without reflection or consultation. Some historians argued that ...
The list of detractors in this New York Times story goes on and on. Frankly, I think Sarko's plan is a good one. I wonder what the French would say if he suggested Holocaust comic books.

I spoke last month with Jacques Berlinerblau, author of "Thumpin' It: The Use and Abuse of the Bible in Today's Presidential Politics." Jewcy recently caught up with the Georgetown professor and has this Q&A:
In light of presumptive Republican nominee John McCain's virtually nonexistant âScripture gameâ and his past skirmishes with prominent evangelical figures, do you think 2008 offers an opening for the Democrats to close the gap with religious voters?
Absolutely. You know, itâs strange: on many issues of great concern to conservative Christians (abortion, national security, showing the love to Intelligent Design curricula) McCain delivers the goods. But as I noted in Thumpinâ It, he has this longstanding history of personal enmity with their leadership. I once suggested in my blog for The Washington Post that McCain and conservative Evangelicals would benefit from couples counseling. When the senator from Arizona says ours is a âChristian nationâ (as he did this past fall) what Evangelicals should hear him saying is: âplease donât accuse me of having fathered an illegitimate childâ (as some unidentified Bush operatives famously did in 2000 in South Carolina).
That being said, a candidate like Obama would steal Evangelical votes from McCain and even McCain-Huckabee in large Kansas-sized chunks.
Speaking of which, you discuss a growing rift in the evangelical movement due to the rise of progressive evangelicals like Jim Wallis and the evangelical environmentalists. What is the state of progressive evangelicalism and how will it affect the 2008 election?
This is the big question: to what degree will Evangelicals behave the way they did in 2004. Nearly 80% of them voted for George W. Bush. Thatâs 80% of a quarter of the electorate! But I donât think that will happen again in 2008. For starters, progressive Evangelicals are finding their voice. And a new generation of younger evangelicals is rising that doesnât seem eager to focus solely (and obsessively) on abortion and gays. This is a great opportunity for Democrats. Remember: they donât have to win Evangelicalsâthey just have to stanch the Kerry-like hemorrhaging they endured in 2004. That is eminently doable.The book focuses primarily on how the âScripture gameâ plays to Christian Americans. How does it play to Jewish Americans? Are the rules any different?
With the possible exception of certain Orthodox groups, my sense is that most Jews would prefer that Bible-thumping politicians put a cork in it. Public, state-sponsored displays of religion tend not, historically, to be good for a minority group once aptly described by Max Weber as a âpariah people.â Even when Christian politicians invoke the Old Testament they are usually citing prophetic texts and Psalms that they read in a deeply Christological manner. So Jews arenât about to respond to that with cries of âyesher koach!â

There are five liters of blood in the adult human body, which is about 7 percent of your total body weight. The entire blood supply makes a complete circuit of the heart, lungs, blood vessels, and back to the heart every 60 seconds.
There are four major blood types, O, A, B and AB. Nearly half the population is type O, and they can donate blood to people with all other blood types but can only receive type O blood. The rarest blood type, AB, is present in about 4 percent of the population. These people can receive all types of blood.
There are about 75 to 100 trillion cells in the body, about 25 trillion of which are red blood cells. An individual red blood cell contains about 250 million molecules of the iron-containing protein called hemoglobin, which is capable of picking up four molecules of oxygen. As a result, a single red blood cell can deliver up to 1 billion molecules of oxygen.
Laid end-to-end, the arteries, capillaries and veins in the average child would stretch for about 60,000 miles and, in the average adult, would be about 100,000 miles — enough to wrap around the world at least twice.

If you regularly visit another of my other blogs (100 Years in America), you may know that I've been focusing this week on bringing readers' attention to the geography of our great big world this Geography Awareness Week (November 16-22, 2008). I have started there with the places that were important to the Hungarian and Croatian branches of my family.
Thus far, I have posted geography quizzes at 100 Years in America on:
Hungary prior to 1918 along with historic Austria-Hungary
New York City (where many of my immigrant ancestors settled)
Here at A light that shines again, the focus is on the Boston Irish side of my family. How's your knowledge of "Beantown", the unofficial "capital of New England"?
Test yourself with the following quizzes:
Boston quiz
Historics landmarks of Boston quiz
Also want to test your knowledge of the geography of Ireland? Make a visit to Small-leaved Shamrock to quiz yourself on Ireland's cities, counties and national parks.
The photograph of Boston shows its Back Bay neighborhood along the Charles River.
"Yet not in vain, Fathers and mothers, were your humble lives; Each in its turn an influence that survives, A light that shines again In sacred memories, and in hearths and homes, Vital as greater names that gild historic tomes…" ~ Christopher Pearce Cranch

So I'm INCREDIBLY OCD about my gadgets, and I decided to call Verizon to talk to them about my pre-order of the 8x. I ASSUMED that the phone would have a chance of being shipped out BEFORE 11/13, which is why k decided to go the pre-order route. I wanted it to ARRIVE BY 11/13...
In speaking with two agents, they informed me that the device will be shipping ON 11/13, for an 11/15 delivery date. The 8x drops in stores on 11/13, and the agents told me that it CANT ship BEFORE 11/13 because "the phone hasn't been released yet" (aka we can't get it BEFORE the general release to the public)
I then spoke to someone who told me my phone is looking to ship Monday am! He told me the phone is already AT FedEx, now its just waiting to be sent out to me! He said Monday am it'd be sent, arriving to me BY 11/13...a very different answer. Is he looking at a different screen than the other agents?
If I wouldve known I wouldn't get the phone until 11/15, I wouldve just gotten it in-store on 11/13!
I'm just a bit frustrated at the lack of clarity in this situation. Has anyone had any contact regarding this issue? Can someone shed some light? - 11-10-2012, 02:41 PM #2
It doesn't make a difference. What if paid for shipping? Agents are STILL saying it won't ship UNTIL 11/13. IF If I did overnight, it would arrive on 11/14. If it says SHIP BY, to me, that's saying it CAN be shipped earlier. Meaning 11/13 is the absolute LATEST date it would ship by.
Why did one agent say it was shipping out Monday morning then? Its just very confusing... - 11-10-2012, 03:09 PM #5
I think one thing that is confusing is the actual release date. I don't think it is going to be on sale on the 13th despite what Verizon reps are telling you. In the past, like many on this forum have mentioned before, usually Verizon launches flagship phones on Thursdays. So I think it shipping the 13th is fine because it won't actually be on sale until the 13th. I'm happy to be wrong, but I wouldn't stress too much. I think the phone is coming Thursday not Tuesday.
Yea i understand. I guess I've just given up hope on depending on these companies. I mean **** we were already told the 8x would be out a few days into November. And look at Verizon ****ing it up. I'm just fed up with Vzw for sure lol. Can't cancel them cause its free with my company so. O well
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2 - 11-10-2012, 11:23 PM #15
Does anyone know what's going on with the 11/21 ship date on the red model? That's the Wednesday before Thanksgiving so if it ships then it wouldn't be delivered until the following Monday and that just seems like a really stupid thing for Verizon to do. The status page won't accept my order number so I can't figure anything out.
My 8x pre order says ship by 11_13. When I pre ordered the iPhone 5;it said deliver by 11-21. I got it on that Friday the 21. Fedex tracking was emailed to me late the nite before (Like 10:30pm).
Because it says ship by, my expectation is to get a tracking notice that nite and have it on the 15th. - 11-11-2012, 08:31 PM #23
On other threads on here are pointing out, you can't count on the reps, they are clueless. They said the 822 didn't have wireless charging. Trust me, I want to get the phone as badly as you do but there is no evidence that FedEx has the phones while there's plenty that says they are yet to be shipped.
Lol, true. I've had USPS tracking information not be available until after I've received the package.
What I mean though is that Verizon would be able to provide you with a tracking number if the phones had already left their warehouse and were in FedEx's possession. All packages that would be shipped would already have a label and associated tracking number by the time FedEx picked them up.

The Audubon Important Bird Areas Program was initiated in Indiana in 1998 through the commitment and comprehensive efforts of a volunteer coordinator and the establishment of the Indiana IBA technical committee. The committee is composed of the state's leading ornithologists, ecologists, and conservationists who represent various natural heritage, wildlife management and conservation, and academic and research institutions throughout Indiana. In January, 2005, the National Audubon Society hired James Cole as its first full-time IBA coordinator for Indiana.
Cole worked for almost 4 years to create an inventory of 40 locations within the state that contain reservoirs of bird abundance and diversity, identifying them as Important Bird Areas. In September, 2005, the first 13 state IBAs were identified. A second 13 sites were added in early 2006. A third round of 14 sites was added in May, 2007. In September of 2009, Dr. Ross Brittain was hired as the Indiana Director of Bird Conservation to replace James Cole as the National Audubon Society representative in the state. Dr. Brittain also serves as the Indiana IBA Coordinator and added one more IBA to the state in 2010 (Hillenbrand FWA).
A list of these sites, as well as sites for which Birding Guides have been written, can be found on the Site List. For each site many details can also be found here. A map shows the locations of all of the Important Bird Areas. In addition, you can find maps of the IBAs in three regions of the state: Northwest, Southwest and South Central.
Audubon selected the Goose Pond Fish and Wildlife Area as an IBA test-site for conservation initiatives. Audubon coordinated with the principle stakeholders at Goose Pond (IDNR, National Audubon Society, Sassafras Audubon Society, Ducks Unlimited, The Nature Conservancy and Indiana Wildlife Federation) to write a Goose Pond Bird Conservation Plan that will be jointly implemented By Audubon and IDNR staff and volunteers. The plan is now available (54 page pdf file, 2 MB) Goose Pond Bird Conservation Plan
Dr. Brittain's top priorities for Indiana bird conservation, in order, are:
Because the Indiana IBA Program is a voluntary initiative, its ultimate success depends on public awareness and volunteers. Our goal is increased advocacy and awareness for the protection of birds and their habitat by the public. As the initiative develops and more sites are identified and recognized, Hoosier bird-watchers will have available many opportunities to contribute to this conservation effort. Here are some things you can do:

It shouldnt, however I have not hooked it up with a VGA adapeter as you show. I do know, from personal use, the IBG Star works with iPod 2-current, iPhone 3-4S, and iPad (although not mentioned on box or info). When I get a chance to play with it a bit more I will update my post. Maybe someone will beat me to the punch, which is great!

The info in the market place is varied and confusing.
Can any third party, non related, point me in right direction or advise on what the hell is going on for real. Not prepared to blow my money to feed some broken market place. There seems to be a plethora of business's for sale, has any one got some great advice or wise ideas? Muchly appreciated!!
Before you do anything, GET A GOOD LAWYER! The money you spend on a lawyer will save you from a lot of pain and problems.
Next, work out if it is going to be worthwhile to invest so much money into a property in Thailand. With rent so cheap it might be better to consider renting instead. Then you need to consider resale value. The 2nd hand property market is not like you are used to back home. Thais prefer to buy new homes. And selling in the current market downturn is going to be very difficult. Even a few years down the track it might be impossible to sell at a profit.
If you do decide to go ahead and buy anyway, you will need to set up 3 companies. The first company will have you as a minority shareholder with up to 49% and your Thai partner will hold 51%. Then this company can own the other 2 companies as fully registered Thai companies. This means an outlay of about 200,000 Baht. Your lawyer will structure these companies so that in effect you will control the property through proxies.
Then you have to consider the cost of administering these companies. Under Thai law you have to show income and expenses and have an annual audit. Cost for accounting is about 3,000 Baht with most accounting companies, and the audit will cost about 15,000 Baht a year.
As you can see, the costs begin to mount, so figure these in when deciding whether to buy or rent.
If you would like to buy 3 ready made companies PM me. I can help. And if you need any further advice ask in the PM.

"What's behind it (are) poll numbers that saw Republicans getting their butt kicked because of this whole gamesmanship," Avlon said.
Manchin said the brinksmanship was a chance to address what he called the "draconian cuts" of sequestration.
A new round of the across-the-board spending cuts for the military and other non-entitlement programs takes effect on January 15, he said.
Sticking point
As reported by CNN Chief Congressional Correspondent Dana Bash and CNN Senior White House Correspondent Jim Acosta, the main sticking point for now involves how long an agreement would fund the government to end the shutdown and increase the debt limit to enable required federal borrowing.
Democrats want the debt ceiling increase to extend as long as possible to avoid similar showdowns in coming months.
At the same time, they seek a temporary spending plan to reopen the government while formal budget negotiations work out a longer-term agreement that can negate the impacts of the forced sequestration cuts.
Republicans, however, want a longer spending proposal that would lock in the planned sequestration cuts in coming months, with a shorter debt ceiling extension in order to negotiate further deficit-reduction measures.
Watching developments closely in Washington, Wall Street greeted news of apparent progress in the Senate positively. Stock indexes gained in afternoon trading after sharp early losses to start the week. Bond markets were closed for Columbus Day
Political leaders were mindful of the impact on financial markets if they signaled possible failure to avoid a default.
"I believe we can do it," Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press." "I hope sensible people prevail, because at this point, it's not just a shutdown and all of the damage it's caused, but if we default on our debt, it will have a dramatic impact on the savings account, on the retirement account of average Americans."
On the other side of the aisle, Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio said he also thinks Congress will find a way out of the crisis before Thursday, when the United States hits the debt ceiling.
"We will have decided as a Congress that we need to avoid going over the debt limit, and we'll figure it out. And it will probably be a relatively short-term solution," Portman said.
A weekend of rejections
Despite the positive prognoses, the only actions over the weekend involved one "no" after another.
• Reid said Saturday the plan Collins was assembling was no longer on the table, because it treated reopening the government as a "concession." Reid continues to demand that any plan include a "clean" bill, one that raises the debt limit and reopens the government with no strings attached. However, Manchin's comments Monday indicated the Collins plan remained alive.
• Republicans blocked a measure to extend the debt limit with no strings attached, refusing to support a procedural vote that would have brought it to the Senate floor.
• House Republican leaders said Obama rejected their proposal for a six-week extension of the federal debt ceiling.
• Meanwhile, Republicans objected to the prospect being floated over the weekend that the forced spending cuts of sequestration, which have cut deeply into federal operations since March, might be rolled back under any eventual deal.
The Treasury Department said it will be unable to pay the government's bills unless the debt limit is increased by Thursday.
Christine Lagarde, head of the International Monetary Fund, said Saturday the consequences of a failure to raise the debt limit would be dire for economies around the world. She spoke to CNN's Richard Quest at an Institute of International Finance conference in Washington.
"You know, I've just spent the last two days with representatives of about 188 countries around the world. I wouldn't say they are confident. I would say they are concerned, and they are very anxious to see this crisis resolved, because they know it's going to impact on their economy," Lagarde said.
Obama spoke by phone with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Sunday to discuss the ongoing battle over the shutdown, the White House said. The two agreed on the need for a "clean debt limit increase" and a "clean continuing resolution to open up the government and end the shutdown."
Mindful that the Thursday deadline is days away, House Republican leaders are considering all their options even as Republican and Democratic Senate leaders try to craft a deal on the debt ceiling, said a GOP leadership aide, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
One option Republican leaders are considering is sending back a measure to the Senate that would increase the debt limit; exactly what it would contain is unknown at this time.

For centuries, wolves have been demonized in legend and fiction, despite being so closely related to our beloved dogs. Amidst the controversies surrounding releasing wolves back into the wild in the west, the Dutchers set out to document the social lives of wolves, living closely and for several years with a pack in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho. In The Hidden Life of Wolves, they reveal the wolf as an intelligent, highly social animal capable of displaying emotion much like our own pets. Wolf packs in nature have a social order of dominance, from the alpha male and female down to the omega, or lowest wolf on the social scale. The alphas are the only ones to mate, and the entire pack is involved in feeding and babysitting the indulged pups, allowing them to climb, nip and wrestle. Although the omega is the least dominant, his role is to initiate play and alleviate tension in the pack. In the Sawtooth pack, a mid-level wolf often came to the aid of the omega, protecting him from the others and playing with him. The pack demonstrated a sense of mourning when one of their members was killed by a mountain lion–the wolves revisited the site of the killing and quietly roamed the area for many weeks. The authors discuss many instances of social behavior among the pack that discount the stories of the vicious killing machine described in fairy tales.
This book is filled with spectacular photos and gives us a new understanding of the complex lives of these amazing animals. The authors also discuss the controversies around hunting and ranching in the areas where wolves are present, and discuss the benefits of the presence of wolves to the environment. The wolf is an amazing animal that deserves our respect and protection, and the insights offered into their lives by this book will hopefully inspire more protection of these spectacular animals.

User Review for Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite Convertible Car Seat
I waited until my daughter turned a year old before I decided to finally purchase a forward facing seat. I researched many seats before settling on this one. So far, she absolutely loves it. She seems to be very comfortable in it, except for when she is asleep. Then her head falls forward, but that is pretty much unavoidable with any car seat. I am very pleased with it. It is an excellent, quality seat and looks just like the Eddie Bauer model.
User Review for Safety 1st Alpha Omega Elite Convertible Car Seat
I ordered this product after much research. The price and shipping was excellent at BabyAge.com. It arrived in no time at all. I like the look of the seat more in person than in the picture. My little one seems to really enjoy sitting in it and looks comfortable. I LOVE that you can adjust the harness from the front. The buckles are easy to use and ajust. I did however find that it was a little difficult to place rear facing. I had to roll a towel and place it under the front to make it somewhat level. I had to literally climb in the seat to get it tight enough, and then could not get it out with the latch system belt. I had to sit in it again to release the latch belt. I have now switched it to forward facing and it is EXCELLENT! I am thinking of getting this same seat for our second vehicle.

User Review for Evenflo Big Kid LX High Back Booster Car Seat
Works well for 4yo child. We got it for grandchild and have only had him in it once. He says its soft and feels good. He fell asleep and it kept his head and neck in comfortable positions. The cup holders and snack holders work great for his little toys. We chose the chair because of other reviews, price, size, weight, and comfort. Very pleased with purchase and service.
User Review for Marathon 70-G3 Convertible Car Seat
This is our second Britax Marathon. We love them. My daughter LOVES her carseat. She doesn't mind travel & says it is very comfortable. Her head has never fallen forward while sleeping either. She is 4 1/2 and 43lbs & still in her seat so now we are buying another for our one year old. Sometimes I wish it had a cupholder, but I'll go with this for safety anyday.

Templeton Small Batch Rye Whiskey
The end of the Prohibition came in 1933, but the production of Templeton Rye continued, and the whiskey has only been made privately and in small quantities for loyal patrons since. Templeton Rye launched its first legal product in 2006, and is currently only available in Illinois and Iowa, though that will hopefully change soon.
Following the Prohibition Era recipe, Templeton is aged for more than four years in charred new white oak barrels. While a rye whiskey must by definition be made from a mash containing at least 51% rye, Templeton is made from a mash of more than 90% rye. As the bottle says, it makes for "a smooth finish and a clean getaway."
The unique whiskey presents a rye spiciness and almost bittersweet taste that is found in the rye grain, along with notes of dried fruit, toffee, caramel and allspice. Texturally, the deep amber-colored whiskey is thick and almost chewy. The mellow, yet complex rye has a clean, spicy finish. The rye taste mixed with spiciness and sweet undertones are well balanced, a sign of careful aging.

Cochinita Pibil
2 kg pork
200g achiote paste
1 c orange juice
1 c lime juice
OR substitute the last 2 ingredients with 2 c bitter orange juice
1 Tablespoon dried oregano
1 Tablespoon peppercorns
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon cumin seed
8 grains allspice
6 cloves garlic
2 shots tequila
Dissolve achiote in the orange and lime juice and 1 shot liquor.
Toast the pig with the remaining shot. Make a paste with the rest of the ingredients (except pork) using mortar and pestle. Mix paste with dissolved achiote.
Cut pork into 3 cm (~1.2") chunks and place in a ziplock bag or other container. Pour achiote marinade over the pork and mix to completely coat all chunks. Rest overnight in the refrigerator.
Put the marinated pork in a slow cooker set to "low" and allow it to cook, covered, until it can be shredded with a fork (about 4 hours in my cooker). Shred and remove bones (if any). Uncover, set the heat to high and allow the marinade to evaporate, mixing occasionally, until very little liquid pools at the bottom of the pot when you push the pork aside.
Serve with hot corn tortillas and
Cebolla Morada
1 purple onion, julienned
3 habanero peppers, finely diced
1/2 c each orange and lime juice OR 1 c bitter orange juice OR 1 c distilled vinegar
Mix ingredients and rest overnight in the refrigerator.
I suggest serving the onion with a fork instead of a spoon. The liquid doesn't really do much for me but the onion is deliciously crisp and habanero-hot.

This is my skillet. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My skillet is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life. Without me my skillet is useless. Without my skillet, I am useless. I must season my skillet well. I will. Before God I swear this creed. My skillet and myself are the makers of my meal. We are the masters of our kitchen. So be it, until there are no ingredients, but dinner. Amen.

ADF 11g Business components – Create PL/SQL based entities
01 year ago
While building a (new) ADF 11g application you sometimes have to deal with the fact that you have to use existing PL/SQL procedures for storing your data.
This article describes how you can overwrite your ADF business component's default behavior to execute its DML statements using PL/SQL stored procedures.
There are a few steps we have to make:
