Here's a GTX 650 Ti running a 16% overclock, that "costs" all of 1 to 6 watts more. Yup. I heard board vendors hate bringing out new models...mainly from people who have never looked at the SKU line-up's available from vendors (e.g. MSI already lists six models of the card, while Asus lists seven) For what its worth, most of the GTX 650 Ti's seem to already rely on proprietary cooling solutions to differentiate themselves in the marketplace - some, like Sparkle even use a (gasp!) non reference PCB Memory overclocking has already demonstrated itself to be less effective than pipeline (GPU) overclocking- both from power/heat and net gain- hence the number factory overclocked cards that sport stock clocked memory...or the fact that when AMD transformed the HD 7950 to the 7950 Boost, the memory speed was left untouched.
Hardocp did a comparison of gpu and memory performance scaling on a 660 Ti and they proved equally effective. It's not surprising that now you can get bigger benefits from memory overclocking. When you think about it memory bandwidth has languished while cores keep getting faster. They're being under fed at this point.
I remember seeing the article - with that Galaxy card they were in love with I believe. Similar performance gains, although from what I read (and subsequently), the memory overclocked around 10% higher than the core in the benchmarks- I think they stated that the card was core clocking @ ~1.3GHz...whereas that frequency was peak/transient, and not sustained boost. Given that Kyle and Co specialize in 2560x1600 testing + MSAA/SSAA, I'm not overly surprised that the 660 Ti's lack of stock bandwidth couldn't be exploited by comparison.
MSRP in US$ inherently favors the US. Mostly because for US customers MSRP is already tax inclusive, but distributors for other countries simply take the MSRP and slap additional tax and shipping on top of it, instead of on top of their actual acquisition cost.
that $150 turns into $170 for me with 13% tax for the... less 'mainstream' countries, i also wonder if it's just a worse distribution chain, less stock, less customers, maybe import from other stores to resell well even in noth america there are plenty of stores that jack up the price, or worse, pretend something is on sale (tigerdirect recently did geforce titan at $1,250 or so)
Australia will put you all to shame lol I already own a GTX 650 Ti GS OC model so meh, and we still have no idea how the 7790 will perform yet do we?
yes we do! between 7770 and 7850. But that's such a wide gap. If I was to describe that gap it'll like "throwing a hotdog into a gymnasium"
Thats not realy helpful, thats more of a dir moment as everyone knows it be between those two cards, but we want to know how it performs against the GTX 650Ti and price, and so far no benchmarks so its all guess work at this stage
That really depends on which part of Asia. For example since Hong Kong enjoy very low tax rates, and no sales tax hardware prices are quite very good here. This also have to do how close we are to mainland China.
Well, no argument, but if you already told AIB's the chips they've already acquired, are copasetic to "X" bin core clocks can/would Nvidia say they're now good to something more? They're certainly getting more good "Top-Shelf binned" chips, so yes they'll just release more that have ~1070Mhz at lower prices and give some AIB's a kick back on what they own so mid range clock card should come down. While I'd say don't discount bandwidth... Have a look at this synopsis from XbitLabs. They show that a Gigabyte with memory OC'd at 7160Mhz and a Zotac AMP at 6200Mhz. Comparing very close core clocks 1078Mhz Gigabyte and 1072Mhz/5400mhz of the EVGA the Gigabyte is 8% faster. While Zotac vs. (stock) Gigabyte are both 1033Mhz core clock; the 5400Mhz memory on the Gigabyte against the Zotac at 6200Mhz memory, there's again almost another 8% improvement. Also, look at the 4xAA/AF16x between the EVGA and OC Gigabyte there's 10% differance. I think that's what Nvidia is hanging there hopes on. http://www.xbitlabs.com/picture/?src=/images/graphics/geforce-gtx-650-ti-roundup/zfulltable.png
Codename: GTX 655 •Retail: GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost •GPU: GK106 •Cores: 768 •Base Clock: 980MHz •Boost Clock: 1030MHz •Memory Interface: 192-bit •Memory Clock: 1500MHz QDR (6 billion transfers per second) •Memory Bandwidth: 144.000 MB/s, 140.63GB/s Ok now we wait to se if the run with the longer GTX660 PCB, I think they will. Appear they aren't seeing as many "Top-Shelf 768" as I would have thought. How cost effective can this be?
Boost clock is largely subjective with Kepler cards- it think that has already been amply demonstrated, so I'd guess that any stated boost number is going to be dependent upon GPU load efficiency- or, given Titan's Boost 2.0, possibly deterministic regarding thermals since the 650 Ti isn't TDP limited. If the latter is the case, then it would stand to reason that dual fan (and longer PCB) designs would dominate from vendors...but then the longer PCB is exactly how it stands now. Not maxing out the clocks also allows vendors to market overclocked models of the "new card". BTW: The present 650 Ti size approximates that of the HD 7750/7770/7850, and I'm pretty certain that the Nvidia based cards from the vendors don't carry a higher BoM than Radeons...so why point out cost effectiveness ? or is the lack of cost effectiveness to the end user? Don't you need pricing to complete that equation ? /Someone should tell BSN that I was joking when I suggested using the name GTX 650 Ti Boost (in post #23)
Now why do I want a GPU that'll be slower than the PS4, let alone run poorly optimzed next-gen ports.
By which metric is it slower, and by how much? No sarcasm here, i just don't know and i'm not going to learn how to convert AMD numbers to Nvidia numbers to performance, i got my plate full of things to learn.
In Malaysia, we pay $500 for a GTX 670 from ASUS. But for some reason, prices for Gigabyte and ASUS cards are inflated and yet cards from Sapphire are seem to be priced better.
Yea we are pretty much the same, ASUS and Gigabyte seem to be alot more expensive then the other brands. http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1387&products_id=22168 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1387&products_id=20330 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1387&products_id=21726 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1387&products_id=20776 Cheapest one > http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1387&products_id=21156
Same here in Indonesia, MSI cards are slightly priced better than Asus and Gigabyte. The best deals here are come from Sapphire and Zotac, which came from same company (PC Partner).

Well listen most homeowners that Margaret understand this they've been trying to deal with the bank for years everything they've that is felt -- want -- to take the home back.
But -- like dead where are you lenders.
Why won't you foreclose on our property so we could start our life over.
It is a prevailing problem in this country it's causing a lot of problems for homeowners and that's why we're calling a zombie foreclosures OK so -- if you think you've been foreclosed -- you figure out whether or not you're the victim of one of these zombie foreclosures.
Well bottom line is this the if if you've been trying to.
Work a deal with the lender for a few years and they just won't communicate.
In the bottom line is the fact as long as that home is title to you.
-- you're legally responsible for that home.
You could still be held responsible for H -- ages there's property tax issues.
There's insurance issues although most lenders will put insurance on the home once the -- run out on your impound account.
But the frustration for the homeowner is.
Many people want to get out of that house the great wanna move on and they're begging the lenders.
Take my house let me move on with mightily right.
And they're just not doing it catch -- -- here's here's an email question from somebody.
What do I filed for bankruptcy and -- debt is discharged and might still expose.
Not let me be very clear here.
The debt has been this -- -- by the bankruptcy court so what you -- the bank.

I have been in love with my child since I was a little girl. Long before I got married or pregnant or knew if I was having a boy or a girl I loved this person with all my heart. I used to dream about being a mother when I was young and always assumed I would have a bunch of kids but there was another path for me and since I was blessed with only one child God gave me one that is perfect.
My life has been an interesting journey marked by moments of joy and tears. This child has made the joy appear in vibrant color and the tears pass quickly because he replaces them with laughter. It has been just the two of us for a long time and it was my son who reminded me that I was not only a mother but a woman and I needed to start putting myself out there.
My boy and I had a great night. We did homework, made dinner, hung out, watched TV, farmed on Facebook and just chilled at home. I love to watch him sleeping. He is beautiful and it's the only time all day that he is quiet. He has all the best parts of me and his dad in him and at certain angles it's as if I'm looking at my own father as a young man and it is wonderful.
He will be 14 in January and I can see him changing every day. Not only physically but emotionally and mentally. I am watching him grow from a child into a young man and it is glorious and scary. Every day brings a new challenge, a new worry, a new goal and a new smile.
I don't know why I'm feeling so mushy but I just want to say that I am thankful for this remarkable child. I am honored to be his mother and pray I am doing a good job and when he looks back on his childhood I hope he understands that I did the best I could to give him a life filled with love, hope, joy and faith.
To my darling son you are my sunshine and my heart and I want you to know that with each day of my life I love you a little more than the day before. I can't wait to take you to college, dance at your wedding and spoil your kids. You are the single most important person that I have ever known and my world is better with you in it. The entire world is better with you in it.
I wish you health and happiness and I hope that all the dreams you have for yourself come true. Be happy, healthy, safe and kind. Be respectful, honest, generous and patient. Believe in yourself and set your goals high because everything is possible if you keep the faith.
12.21.13 at 9:03 am |
12.19.13 at 2:57 am | My son has a free schlepping service.
12.12.13 at 8:05 am | Well played my son. Well played.
12.11.13 at 6:58 am | I watch in awe and stare with envy at these. . .
12.5.13 at 3:16 pm | Heaven has received a blessing today.
12.3.13 at 3:05 pm | Every time I go into the kitchen I half expect to. . .
9.15.13 at 3:14 pm | I love you Russell Brand. (395)

Dating is a drag. It takes so much time and effort to meet someone, decide if you want to go out with them, decide if it should be a coffee, drink, dinner or a walk, finding something to wear, meet at a place or be picked up and then when it finally all gets sorted out you realize that you are going to meet a complete stranger and hope that he is safe, kind and honest.
It really is horrible and yet I continue to do it and the more disappointed a date is the more I am determined to not give up or be broken by a series of men who are not worthy and by not worthy of course I mean that they should be ashamed of themselves for being so dishonest. For some reason my last few dates have been with the type of men that make me think I should get another cat and call it a day.
I'm trying to figure out how it is possible that I don't give up and a different type of woman would have surrendered already and I know many who have. But not me! Men say they are single when they are married, divorced when they are separated, tall when they are short, funny when they are not and say they are looking for a relationship and by relationship of course they mean they are looking for a really meaningful 45 minutes.
The best time in the course of dating is the pre-date because you have not met in person and there is a freedom and safety that comes with the phone where you can talk and share and get a sense of a person and by sense of that person of course I mean you get what they give you but it's almost old fashioned in the simplicity and you can convince yourself that you can believe what they tell you in a small window of time where the possibilities are endless.
Last night I spent a long time talking to a man I met on JDate and I had such a nice time. He was charming and made me laugh and it was a discussion that was more meaningful than it would have been at a Starbucks or over a drink because the phone removes some nerves and by nerves I mean that I am my most comfortable sitting on my couch talking freely.
This gentleman and I are having dinner on Thursday night which means that for the next 4 days I can be excited about the possibilities that I might have a nice date with a nice man. This will be a great 4 days that will, based on my recent history, be the best part of the date. Or maybe, just maybe he is lovely and we will have a nice time.
Pre-dating is a time to be optimistic that you will have a great date and whether it is or isn't, it is a reminder to keep the faith.

It's been several years since I watched the Disney classic Pinocchio and so it's hard to remember exactly what he looks like but I'm almost certain that he and I went on a date this week. The poor little fellow just could not control himself and by the end of the night his nose was so big I offered to drop him off at Cedars for some much-needed medical attention.
Lying is a fascinating thing and watching someone do it when you know and they know they are lying is entertaining beyond measure. My son has never been much of a liar and when he does occasionally tell a lie it is so obvious that it's sometimes hard for me not to laugh. I can see the wheels in his head spinning and when he lands the big punch he is so surprised by what he just said that the shock registers on his face and it's all over.
There are different types of lying and some are actually good. If you withhold information from someone because it may hurt them it's a lie but when done with loving intentions it can be okay and women have that form of lying mastered because we protect each other and our friends and family and so even though it's a lie it can be good and by good of course I mean that lying is never really good but sometimes necessary.
The most fascinating lie is the dating lie. It's the kind of lie that you can never take back or undo. When you tell someone you are 5'10" and are really 5'7" there is no going back. When you tell someone you are divorced and then tell them you need to cancel dinner because you have a meeting about your divorce there is no going back. When you tell someone you just bought a new car then have your mom call and say she needs her car back there is no going back.
I will never fully understand the dating lie. It seems like an area of life that one should try to be honest about because if you lie and then discover that you really like that person there is no going back because you have now established yourself as a liar and as Maya Angelou says, when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
If you are reading this Pinocchio don't call me because my phone was stolen by aliens when I was abducted last night and I have moved to Alaska to become a fisherman and I'm really a man and I'm married and pregnant and going in for surgery tomorrow so I can enter the witness protection program. I'm sure you understand. Best of luck and while I don't think it will help, keep the faith.

Here is a recap of my week. Full articles are available at www.jewishjournal.com/keepingthefatih.
1. If Aaron Carter does not get booted off of Dancing With the Stars this week I am going to have to stick my hand down my throat and remove my own kidney. Seriously. Enough. Go home Aaron and as a gift to those of us who have had to watch you for so long you should cry like a baby when you go. Thanks.
2. My son went to a party this week that ended when the police were called in. I can honestly remember when he was a baby and his bum could fit into the palm of my hand and now he is taller than me and going to huge parties. I don't l know how it happened so fast but I do know that I love this child more every single day of his life and while I'm scared of the changes I welcome the adventure.
3. I'm still on JDate and there is nothing more to say about that.
4. I went to a funeral for the lovely Bill Basch who was a survivor of the Holocaust and was reminded that we must never forget this horrible chapter in the history of the world, Jews and all who were persecuted. I encourage you to visit the USC Shoah Foundation institute at www.college.usc.edu/vhi where you can learn, donate and remember.
5. There was a shooting at Adat Yeshurun Temple in North Hollywood this week and they are still looking for the shooter. This just breaks my heart and makes me fearful for our children that this is the world in which we live. God Bless those who were injured. God Bless us all.
6. On a lighter note I learned this week that there are hundreds of condom choices and the correct amount of time to invest in condom shopping is at least 25 minutes.
7. I went on two dates this week with "Brad" from JDate. He is funny and charming and we have a really great connection and I like him a lot but he has young children, has been divorced for 5 minutes and is at a different place in his life than I am in mine and it begs the question if you make a list of things that you want and you meet someone who has a about 50% of those things do you invest and see if it can work or do you stick with what you know you want and move on?
It has been an interesting week. I'm dealing with the growing pains of my teenager, growing pains of my dating life, and growing pains of my @$$ because I was so busy this week I didn't work out everyday. I hope next week is different. Not better, just different. Shabbat Shalom and keep the faith.

When was the last time you spent 20 minutes shopping for one thing? A couch? A car? A present? For me it was a pair of shoes. I wanted gorgeous chocolate brown high heals for my son's Bar Mitzvah and it took me about 45 minutes to find the perfect pair and it was worth every minute and every penny. I figure it's got to be something important if you are going to spend a lot of time looking for it.
Yesterday I was at Rite Aid picking up a prescription for my son's allergies and there was a line of people waiting and for the record the Rite Aid at Coldwater and Fulton always has a line and the people who work there are never smiling but I go there even though it's annoying because it is close to home and there is a Starbucks next door so if I get a cup of tea before I go in it is a little less painful.
So I'm waiting in line looking around and see that next to the register is a shelf of condoms and I never noticed how many different types of condoms there are but let me tell you something, there are a lot. I'm looking at the selection and frankly amazed at all the options when a man walks up and starts to study the choices but it was weird because he was not picking up the boxes just reading the front of the packages and he was really focused occasionally crouching down and then standing up and scratching his head.
I was in line for 15 minutes and he was looking at condoms the entire time and I was fascinated and wanted to ask him what he was thinking, what the big decision was or if he needed any help then I got to the front of the line and was disappointed because I wanted to know how long he would stay there and what he would buy so I waited a few minutes to see if he bought anything but he was still just looking and thinking.
Good for him that he is practicing safe sex, or perhaps just dreaming about the day he can practice safe sex. It's a curious thing to spend over 20 minutes looking at condoms and by curious of course I mean odd. The amount of choices I imagine would require some time and consideration but if it were me I might do my research online and then sweep in for the purchase.
To the interesting and conscientious man who spent so much time researching condoms I wish you well, commend your dedication to making sure you get the perfect item and remind you that when you utilize your purchase, keep the faith.

May God Bless and keep close all those involved in the shooting this morning at Adat Yeshurun in North Hollywood. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and the Jewish community as a whole.

I am going to a funeral today and rather than blog about the struggles of my single life I would like to tell you about my friend William Basch who passed away this week at the age of 82. Bill was a Holocaust survivor who was featured in the documentary 'The Last Days' and I was blessed to know him.
Bill was in the Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps in Germany and helped save Jews while working in the underground resistance movement in Hungary. In speaking of the Holocaust Bill said, "In order to survive, we must accept the responsibility of being our brothers' and sisters' keeper. Each one of us must do our share of improving our society one day at a time. We all have the ability to defeat evil in our own way."
I travelled the world with Bill and the other featured survivors from the film 'The Last Days' and I remember when we were screening the film in Washington, DC, we were getting ready to leave and I noticed there was a film poster left in the corner and Bill said we should take it with us. My son was about 6 years old at the time and a fixture around the Shoah Foudation.
Bill pulled out a pen and wrote a message on the poster to my son and signed it. He then made sure that all the survivors from the film signed it with a message to my boy. He said that one day they would be gone and my son would have the poster and know that they were all here and survived and he would have the power share their stories because he knew them.
I treasure the poster as does my son and it is incomprehensible to me that when the Nazi's marched into Hungary Bill was the same age my son is now. Bill Basch was a funny, kind and thoughtful gentleman and I will remember him always and hold him in my heart.
It is a clear and beautiful day in Los Angeles and fitting to lay this wonderful man to rest on such a day. Take a moment today to remember the history of our Jewish family. I wish you peace and health and remind you to keep the faith.

There are days when I think I am actually getting better at understanding how men think and therefore one step closer to meeting my Beshert but then something happens that blows that theory right out of the water and even though I take two steps forward I end up getting pushed four steps back and so in the end it's better to take your time with baby steps because even though it may take longer to get where you're going the setbacks will be smaller.
I decided I was going to be brave and write someone on JDate so I took an hour out of my life, did a search and sorted through the masses to find someone intriguing and yes I rejoined JDate after I said I never would but don't judge because it's a necessary evil and by evil of course I mean that it can work and if I give up I could be quitting just before I'm about to meet a great guy and I'm trying so you need to be supportive and by you I mean those who are rolling their eyes wondering why I put myself back on the hell train.
So I find someone I think is interesting and send him a note. He is divorced with kids, lives in Santa Monica, handsome, tall, looks like he's in his early 40's though he says he is 53 and he wrote about his kids in a way that was charming and kind. He really did appear to be a good guy so I send the note and he writes back right away to tell me that he is going out of town for 2 days and can we chat when he gets back. I wish him safe travels and plan on talking to him when he gets home.
Then last night I'm on JDate reading an email when I see that someone is trying to IM me and even though the name of the person looking at me is the name of the guy I wrote the day before the picture is not of the same guy. I look closely and realize that it is in fact the same guy only he has aged about 20 years and even better than that, upon closer investigation it would appear that he is now 2 inches shorter and has lost most of his hair.
I figure he posted a picture and got some attention then panicked that he was presenting himself as someone he wasn't anymore but forgot that people already saw his old profile and even though he thought better of it and came clean he now just looks creepy and I feel duped. I can totally understand the panic in putting yourself online and I get that there is stress with picking a photo and writing about yourself but I will never understand the lying because the truth always comes out in the end and isn't it better to be a little shorter, balder and older than a liar?
I know these issues are not specific to JDate it just seems worse to find them there because I would expect Jews to behave decently and perhaps that's naive and silly because we are all just people and human nature is the same but there is a certain expectation and therefore disappointment in it being a Jewish site because it just does not have to be that way and I would hope that Jewish men would be the exception to the rule which is silly because I only date Jewish men and here I am dealing with this and to be fair women do the exact same thing.
I wish my old, short, bald, lying new friend success with his search for love and I will go back to the drawing board because sometimes you just need to wipe the slate clean and start over and even though starting over can be daunting if you focus on the big picture you can laugh at the setbacks and take a baby step forward while keeping the faith.

4/29/2011: Coptic Church rejects US commission report - Al Masry Al You, |
By Emad Khalil
The Coptic Orthodox Church in Egypt rejected the US Commission on International Religious Freedom's (CIRF) annual report, which condemned Egypt's lack of religious freedom. The church called on the Supreme Council of Armed Forces (SCAF) and the government to solve Copts' problems internally without regard to the content of the American report.
The report released Thursday accused Egypt of not protecting religious minorities or prosecuting crimes against them. Tags: |

Ozaukee County ranked healthiest county in Wisconsin; Douglas County was ranked 53rd
A new report says Ozaukee County is the healthiest of Wisconsin's 72 counties.By: The Associated Press, Superior Telegram
MILWAUKEE (AP) — A new report says Ozaukee County is the healthiest of Wisconsin's 72 counties. Dane County is 15th, Douglas County ranks 53rd and Milwaukee County is second-worst at No. 71, above only Menominee County.
The rankings were released Wednesday by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
The groups ranked the counties based on 25 factors that influence health. They include rates of smoking and childhood poverty, obesity levels, teen birth rates and access to medical care.
Ozaukee County came out on top, followed by Kewaunee, St. Croix, Pierce and Door counties.
The bottom five were Menominee, Milwaukee, Marquette, Adams and Forest counties. In a sampling of other area counties, Sawyer county was ranked 32nd, Bayfield County 38, Washburn County earned a ranking of 47, Ashland County was ranked 49th and Burnett County ranked 51st.
Milwaukee County ranked low in part because 29 percent of residents were considered obese and 30 percent of kids were growing up in single-parent households.

Ok, xkcd, I hate to do this but this is my last resort. I am calling in the big guns to help me answer a friend's physics question homework. I haven't taken kinematics in awhile so I am a bit rusty so I will detail the question out, there is no diagram. I spent literally like 40 minutes on this question and this is as far as I got. See question below.
An automobile enters a constant 90 meter radius of curvature turn traveling at 25 m/s north and exits the curve traveling east. The car completes the turn in 5.4 seconds. Assume the speed of the car can be modeled as a quadratic function of time.
Ok so here is what I did.
I modeled the velocity equation, (the professor told us that the function of speed and velocity can be used interchangably). We are required to figure out initial
and final values of arc length, velocity, acceleration, angular velocity, and angular acceleration.
v(t) = a(t)^2 + bt + c
plugged in initial conditions t(0) and simplified the velocity function to
v(t) = a(t)^2 + bt + 25
so for the final value of velocity equation I have
v(5.4) = a(5.4)^2 + (5.4)b + 25
I used derivation to figure out the function for acceleration which I got to be: (ac is acceleration since a is already used)
ac(t) = 2at+b
and using initial conditions I found the initial acceleration equal to:
ac(0) = b
and final value of acceleration to be
ac(5.4) = 10.8+b
and finally I used integration of the velocity function to get the function or arc length equal to (I used the equation s = r(x) where x is equal to theta, s = arc length and r = radius, in radians to figure out arc length)
90s(t) = a(t)^3 / 3 + b^2 / 2 +25t.
Using initial conditions I simplified initial arc length to 0 and final arc length to be equal to
52.488a + 14.58b = 70.686 after simplifying by figuring out final arc length to be 70.686 by using trigonomtery to figure out that the car did an exact quarter of a circle arc.
And that is as far as I got, I have 3 equations with 4 unknowns and no idea how to figure out the rest of the data.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, time is a issue here, it is due in about 6 hours.

According to Jim Baish, variety is what keeps professors interested and interesting. "We're good teachers because we're involved in research, but we're good teachers first," he says. Baish ought to know about good teaching; he was the 1999 recipient of the Class of 1956 Lectureship. The lecture is given in recognition of inspirational teaching at Bucknell. Baish has taught widely across the curriculum, including everything from engineering 100 to thermodynamics. He helped found the Residential College on Society and Technology and has mentored students at all levels of their education. He taught Bucknell's first biomedical engineering class over a decade ago, and served as co-director of the biomedical engineering program for the last two years, which offers both a major and a minor in biomedical engineering. He is now chair of the mechanical engineering department and served as co-director of Bucknell in London for fall 2005. Baish's latest research, a collaborative project with Rakesh Jain at Massachusetts General Hospital, is a study of the geometry of blood vessels in tumors and how the shape of a blood vessel affects the delivery of medicine, among other things to the tumor. Their work may play an important role in the development of models for more effective treatment of cancerous tumors. Teaching areas Research interests Recent publication |

New England Journal of Medicine
The first documented attempts to treat drinking water, which may date back to 4000 B.C., were recorded in Greek and Sanskrit writings that describe the boiling and filtering of water, primarily to make it smell and taste better, although reducing visible particles and turbidity was also a goal. Hippocrates invented the cloth-bag filter (or Hippocratic sleeve) and was among the first to believe that this process also rendered water more healthful for the human body. The British scientist John Snow demonstrated that the source of a cholera epidemic centered on the odorless and seemingly clean water provided by a water pump. He proved that sand filtration and chlorination effectively prevented the spread of cholera. Despite 150 years of acceptance of the healthful effects of clean water, an estimated 1.1 billion people still lack access to it, and 2.6 billion people lack access to adequate sanitation.
There are several categories of water-related disease (see table), including diarrheal diseases, skin and eye infections, and the neglected tropical diseases.3 Common waterborne diseases involve the fecal–oral transmission of a pathogen — a virus (such as hepatitis A or E or a norovirus), a bacterial enteropathogen (such as Vibrio cholerae, salmonella, enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, shigella, campylobacter, or yersinia), or a protozoan (such as Entamoeba histolytica, giardia, or cryptosporidium). In addition, biofilms (coatings of organic and inorganic materials on water pipes) have been shown to allow the proliferation of several bacterial pathogens (including legionella and Mycobacterium avium complex) that are transmitted by inhalation, as well as of pseudomonas species and leptospira, which are transmitted by contact with skin or mucous membranes; leptospirosis epidemics have followed floods and hurricanes.
Water-based infections are those whose transmission requires an intermediate aquatic host (e.g., a freshwater snail in the case of schistosomiasis, which affects more than 160 million people). Dracunculiasis, which is transmitted to humans through copepods (water fleas) that are infected with guinea-worm larvae, is on the verge of eradication, thanks to simple cloth filtration of water combined with an education program to prevent recontamination — an effort spearheaded by the Carter Center.
Diseases transmitted by water-breeding insects that have dramatic impact on humans include malaria, dengue, yellow fever, trypanosomiasis, and onchocerciasis. The flooding and other ecologic changes associated with global climate change may alter the breeding sites for the mosquitoes, black flies, and tsetse flies that carry these diseases, affecting their incidence and distribution.
The last category of water-related disease results from water polluted by natural toxins such as arsenic or toxins introduced by industrial waste. Arsenic is found in groundwater and released by the microbial metabolism of organic material that predates modern agricultural practices in many regions. Arsenic contamination of groundwater obtained through tube wells in Bangladesh has caused the largest occurrence of poisoning in a single population.4 The contamination was discovered during the investigation of an epidemic of skin lesions that included pigmentation changes on the upper chest and keratoses of the palms and the soles of the feet (see photo). Concerns about lung, bladder, and skin cancers have prompted widespread testing and remediation efforts in Bangladesh. Arsenic contamination of groundwater has also been found in Argentina, Chile, China, India, Mexico, Thailand, and parts of the United States. Similarly, the recognition of lead contamination of pipeborne water in the United States and mercury poisoning in people who have ingested large fish that accumulate toxic levels of mercury has led to concern about heavy-metal contamination of water.
Global health issues have captured the attention of governments, global funds, and foundations. Yet most of this attention and the consequent investment have focused on diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis, and AIDS, which kill a fraction of the number of people who die from water-related diseases. The necessary political will has not been mustered to address the water and sanitation crisis, among the most neglected of the United Nations' millennium development goals. A recent cost–benefit analysis reported by the World Health Organization makes a strong case for investment in this sector, and, at its Tokyo summit meeting in July, the Group of Eight reaffirmed its commitment to addressing concerns about water.5 Political support is urgently needed at all levels for the development and implementation of evidence-based recommendations to improve access to safe water, for the enhanced surveillance of water-related diseases, for the financial support of relevant epidemiologic and laboratory research, and for the development of accessible educational materials. Clearly, we need to start talking dirty water.

Preview: Avalanche at Capitals
The Colorado Avalanche are playing like Patrick Roy is in the net rather than behind the bench, and they look to remain perfect under their rookie head coach when they visit the Washington Capitals on Saturday. Colorado is 4-0-0 under Roy for its best start since the franchise relocated from Quebec prior to the 1995-96 season. The Avalanche registered a Western Conference-worst 39 points last season, leading to Joe Sacco's dismissal and the hiring of Roy.Backup goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere, who made 39 saves in a 2-0 shutout at Boston on Thursday, credited Hall-of-Fame netminder Roy with the club's turnaround. "We seem to believe in ourselves a little bit more," Giguere said. "It is a different voice, and the guys seem to be responding to it right now." Washington has won only once despite a strong start from superstar Alex Ovechkin, who has five goals and seven points in the first four games.TV: 7 p.m. ET, RDS (Canada), Altitude (Colorado), CSN (Washington)ABOUT THE AVALANCHE (4-0-0): Colorado has yielded only three goals in its blazing start and will have Semyon Varlamov back in net as it seeks to complete a perfect three-game road trip. Varlamov already has accomplished something he failed to do last season - win three consecutive starts while turning aside 88-of-91 shots. Varlamov will be making his first appearance against the Capitals, the team with whom he spent his first three seasons.ABOUT THE CAPITALS (1-3-0): Washington has lost back-to-back one-goal decisions following its lone win, in which it erased an early three-goal deficit to beat Calgary in a shootout. "I don't think it's time to push the panic button yet," coach Adam Oates said. "I think we could be 4-0 and we could be 0-4." The Capitals' power play was stifled on all five chances in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Carolina after converting 6-of-12 opportunities in their first three games.OVERTIME1. Colorado is a perfect 10-for-10 in killing off opponents' power plays.2. Capitals D John Erskine is expected to miss the game with an upper-body injury, prompting the recall of D Nate Schmidt from Hershey of the American Hockey League. Rookie D Connor Carrick and C Michael Latta also were sent to Hershey.3. Ovechkin has one goal and two assists in six career games against the Avalanche.PREDICTION: Capitals 3, Avalanche 1

Plot Synopsis:
On December 10, 2007, Led Zeppelin took the stage at London's O2 Arena to headline a tribute concert for dear friend and Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun. What followed was a two-hour-plus tour de force of the band's signature blues-infused rock n roll that instantly became part of the legend of Led Zeppelin. Founding members John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant were joined by Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer John Bonham, to perform 16 songs from their celebrated catalog including landmark tracks Whole Lotta Love, Rock And Roll, Kashmir, and Stairway To Heaven.
Although 20 million people applied for tickets, the band s first headline show in 27 years was seen only by the 18,000 ticket holders who were fortunate enough to have secured seats through the worldwide lottery.

Nicolas Colsaerts of Belgium makes his winning putt to secure the winning point, holding off home favourite Liang Wenchong on the final green, for team Europe to clinch an 8½-7½ victory -- the fifth time in seven editions of the Royal Trophy that Europe has won, at the Dragon Lake Golf Club's Asian Games Course in Guangzhou, southern China's Guangdong province on December 22, 2013. Former Ryder Cup-winning captain Jose Maria Olazabal masterminded another miraculous European fightback as his team celebrated a remarkable Royal Trophy triumph in China.

More than ever the preaching ministry in 1989 related to the specific challenges we faced. The massive earthquake in San Francisco brought out the sermon, "The Unshakeable City." The unparalleled political upheaval of Eastern Europe brought out the sermon, "Jesus is the Ruler of the Kings on Earth." The burden for evangelism brought out the series on "Quest for Joy." The need to grasp the meaning of the eldership brought out the series on Acts 20:17-35. The need for clarity on the relation of men and women brought out the series on Manhood and Womanhood. The desire to heal generational tension after SPAN II called forth the three messages on "Old and Young Shall Dream Together." And our zeal to keep our three priorities clear called forth the three messages from Hebrews 13: "The Sacrifice of Praise... of Shared Life... of Suffering."
For the first time, as far as I know, Bethlehem went off site to worship on Sunday morning. The reason was mainly evangelistic. About 1600 people came to Maranatha Hall at Northwestern College. Four professed faith in Christ. Others sought ongoing spiritual counself. We are still feeling the effects of that service.
The changes of SPAN II dominated the year. SPAN II was a vision born in staff prayer and meditation and approved by the church in the summer. It is an attempt to establish a rhythm of ministry that meets the needs of as many members as possible without overloading the week with meetings. The primary changes were the creation of the Bethlehem Institute and Training Center on Wednesday evenings; the creation of a new small group network; the reduction of the number of Sunday evening services to once a month; and the redefinition of some staff job descriptions. The hope is that each member would seek large corporate worship on Sunday morning, growth in Biblical knowledge and ministry skills Wednesday evening. nurutre and fellowship in a small group (perhaps Sunday evening), and some form of ministry toward the church and toward the world. We hoped that this would not demand being away from home more than three nights a week. The initial responses to the BITC have been very positive. About 600 people are in over 60 small groups.
The Sunday morning worship attendance this year was slightly higher than last year—935 as compared to 919. This is the highest average attendance in the history of the church. The growth however is not impressive. But the obstacles to growth are. The attendance at the three services do not even out any more. The middle service is very full in peak seasons. The third is comfortably full. Only the first one has significant room for growth. This means that space constraints make further significant growth unlikely. The new sanctuary will se a new spurt of growth, I believe.
The Council of Deacons were productive. They produced a final copy of the leadership statement on divorce and remarriage and on the meaning of church membership. They also sent to the church a proposed constitutional revision calling for the creation of a council of elders as well as a board of deacons and deaconesses. I have been involved with and supportive of all this work.
1989 saw the end of two years of interim leadership in the children's ministry as Laurel Bissett and Jennifer Brommet concluded their work and Joan Lovestrand was called as full-time Minister for Children's Discipleship. The road was long and hard. But, as with all God's dealings, the end has been a happy one. I am deeply thankful to God for Joan's presence among us with a heart for God and for the children and for the truth of Scripture and the glory of serious discipleship at home and church.
With the end of Remco Brommet's interim assistantship and with the coming of Joan, we are now complete as a staff for the foreseeable future (Brad, Dan, Joan, David M., David L., Tom, Dean, John). This is a great delight to me. I love these friends with all my heart. They are a tremendous source of strength and joy in my life. May the Lord give us the same deep harmony and unity that we have known over all the years of our partnership.
I have tried to be circumspect in my engagements outside Bethlehem for the wider cause of the Kingdom. Overshadowing much of this year has been the specter of abortion and our effort to say no by our peaceful participation in the Rescue movement. I was arrested three times for sitting in front of abortion clinics and singing worship songs. I spent two days in jail and saw the booklet "Abortion: A Pastor's Perspective" spread accross the country. I long to see our church engaged at every level of the fight to re-establish the principle that a baby's right not to be killed is greater than a woman's right not to be pregnant.
Other efforts outside Bethlehem have included: serving on the baptist General Conference Board of World Missions and Board of Overseers; speaking at the BGC annual meeting day of prayer; hosting the Bethlehem Conference for Pastors and speaking on Charles Simeon; attending the Lausanne II Congress on World Evangelization in Manila; speaking at Perspectives on the World Christian Movement; speaking at the annual executives retreat of the Evangelical Foreign Missions Association; serving on the BGC Prayer Commission and on the steering committee for Prayer 89; forming a Pastors Alliance for Rescuing Innocent Life; speaking at Rick Stapleton's ordination; writing What's the Difference? Manhood and Womanhood Defined according to the Bible and The Supremacy of God in Preaching; and a few other things here and there.
One wonderful development this year was the assistance Bethlehem has been able to bring to Immanuel Baptist Church in the Seward Neighborhood. David Livingston and Remco Prommet gave significant time and effort to this fellowship, and now Brent Nelson, one of our apprentices, has become the pastor there with several of our families and single people going with him to give new life and hope to that church. This has been very encouraging to see Christ move for the sake of his body.
On the personal front Karsten has started Bethel College on a special state early admission program. Benjamin is an ace soccer player in the eighth grade; Abraham is known in his class as the Old Testament authority the teacher looks to for questions like, "Who was Abraham's second wife?", and Barnabas is still wonderfully innocent in the first grade, not yet knowing that it is not cool to wear your back pack on you back. I thank God from the bottom of my heart that the boys love Christ and love Bethlehem.
Noël is still at my right hand—at the door on Sunday and in the ministry. We are learning together that life in the forties with teenagers and an 1100 member church and passions to advance the kingdom is hard. I feel more strongly now than I did a year ago when I wrote for our 20th wedding anniversary these lines:
Although the fig tree blossom not,
And all the vines of our small plot
Be barren, and the olive fail,
The sheep grow weak and heifers frail,
We will rejoice in God, my love,
And take our pleasures from above:
The Lord, our God, shall be our strength
And give us life, whatever length
On earth he please, and make our feet
Like mountain deer, to rise and cleat
The narrow path for man and wife
That rises steep and leads to life.
It is a narrow path for a church too. And the way will become steeper in the years to come, because the opposition will be stronger and the dangers greater. I have now celebrated ten advent seasons with you. There have been over 30 advent poems. The message is almost always the same: the life is hard that leads to life; but the sovereign grace of our God is always sufficient. Every broken-hearted sinner who cries, "Jesus is there hope for me?" hears one answer: Yes. All the promises of God are yes in Christ Jesus. So let us answer back with all our heart and with all our life: Amen! Amen! Amen! In the name of Jesus.
Pastor John

Sales of new U.S. homes climbed more than forecast in May to the highest level in almost five years, a sign of continued strength in a market that's helping fuel economic expansion.
Purchases rose 2.1% to an annualized pace of 476,000 homes, exceeding all estimates in a Bloomberg survey and the most since July 2008, the Commerce Department said today in Washington. The median selling price climbed 10.3% from May 2012.
New and previously owned homes are in demand, driving residential construction and aiding the economic expansion. Consumers who long held off on purchases are entering the market even as borrowing costs increase, encouraged by rising property values and gains in employment.
"The housing recovery is alive and well and has a long way to go, and higher rates aren't going to choke it off," said Joe LaVorgna, chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. in New York, who projected a gain to 475,000, matching the highest in the Bloomberg survey. "'It's given the economy, or will give the economy, a lot of oomph."
The median estimate of 74 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a gain to 460,000. Projections ranged from 435,000 to 475,000. Monthly sales data all the way back to February were revised up, with April now at a 466,000 annualized rate compared with a previously reported 454,000 pace.
Other reports today showed manufacturing is stabilizing, price gains for existing houses are accelerating and consumer confidence is climbing.
Durable Goods
Orders for U.S. durable goods, those meant to last at least three years, climbed a larger-than-projected 3.6% for a second month reflecting broad-based gains, according to figures from the Commerce Department. The median forecast of 81 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 3% advance.
Home prices in 20 U.S. cities rose 12.1% in April from the same month in 2012, the biggest year-over-year gain since March 2006, a report from S&P/Case-Shiller showed. Property values increased 1.7 in April from the prior month following a 1.9% March advance, marking the biggest back- to-back gains since records began in 2000.
The Conference Board's index of U.S. consumer confidence increased to 81.4 in June, the highest level since January 2008, from 74.3 a month earlier, data from the New York-based private research group showed.
Shares Rise
Stocks climbed after the reports and as the People's Bank of China said it will keep money-market rates at reasonable levels. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 0.5% to 1,580.42 at 10:16 a.m. in New York.
The median selling price of a new house increased to $263,900 in May from $239,200 a year earlier, according to today's report from the Commerce Department.
Purchases rose in three of four U.S. regions, led by a 40.7% surge in the Midwest and a 20.7% gain in the Northeast. Sales in the Midwest reached an 83,000 annualized rate, the most since November 2007.
The supply of homes at the current sales rate was 4.1 months compared with 4 months in April. There were 161,000 new houses on the market at the end of May, up from 157,000 a month earlier.
Sales of new properties, which are tallied when purchase contracts are signed, are considered a more timely measure of the market than sales of previously owned dwellings, which are counted when a sale is final. New-home sales accounted for about 7% of the residential market in 2012.
Existing Houses
Purchases of previously owned homes climbed in May to the highest level in more than three years, rising 4.2% to an annual rate of 5.18 million, the National Association of Realtors reported last week. The median price of existing properties rose 15.4% from a year earlier to $208,000, the highest since July 2008, the data show.
An improving job outlook is also creating confidence. Employers in the U.S. added 175,000 jobs in May, more than the median forecast in a Bloomberg survey, and the jobless rate rose to 7.6% from 7.5% as the number of people entering the workforce swamped the number of jobs available.
Improvements in the employment situation and the housing market could boost business at companies like homebuilder and land developer AV Homes Inc., Chief Executive Officer Roger Cregg said, even as housing starts remain below long-run historical averages.
Recovery Signs
"Increased demand driven by recovery in the household formation, employment, and record affordability we're seeing today," are signs of the recovery, Cregg said in a June 19 call to discuss the announcement that private equity firm TPG Capital is taking a more than 40% stake in the Scottsdale, Arizona-based company.
Builders such as West Lake Village, California-based Ryland Group Inc., which reported a first-quarter profit for the first time in six years, still see further strides for housing.
"There is no market that is not active today, which is another good sign," Chief Executive Officer Larry T. Nicholson said in a June 13 presentation.
Confidence among homebuilders rose in June to a seven-year high, the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo index showed June 17. The index rose to 52 from 44 in May, the biggest monthly increase since September 2002, the Washington- based group said.
Mortgage Rates
The average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage was 3.93% in the week ended June 20, up from a low of 3.31% in November yet below levels seen in the years leading up to the last recession, according to figures from Freddie Mac. The rate averaged 6.42% in 2006 and 6.33% in 2007.
Record monetary stimulus from the Federal Reserve had helped keep borrowing costs low. The Federal Open Market Committee said last week that the bank will keep buying $85 billion bonds a month, for the time being, though Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the central bank will probably trim purchases later in 2013 and halt them around mid-2014 as long as the world's largest economy performs in line with Fed projections.

PID Retrofit Kit for Rancilio Silvia with Pre-Infusion
Regular Price: $245.00
Our Price: $235.00
This PID controller kit is built with perfecting a single boiler machine in mind. With the addition of steam temperature control and extraction timer that can be programmed with pre-infusion, this PID can turn your Rancilio Silvia into a professionally consistent machine. The pre-infusion functionality injects water directly into the espresso grinds to saturate the coffee before actual extraction, ensuring far less variance when the pump flings into full motion. The steam temperature control allows the boiler temperature to be held between a tighter range during frothing. User operation is the same as regular machine, so there isn't a lot of extra fiddling to figure this PID out. The added consistency is a welcome change, as the most common complaint we hear from Silvia owners is a lack of this consistency. This kit fits all Silvia models, including the model made after 2009. Please be aware that installing this on your Silvia will void any existing warranties. Learn MoreOut of stock

NIH Director's Early Independence Award Program Search
NIH Director's Early Independence Award (EIA)Host Institution-EIA Scientist Matching Portal
The 2014 NIH Director's Early Independence Award (EIA) (Funding Opportunity Announcement) was published in August 2013. The EIA, funded through the NIH Common Fund, provides an opportunity for exceptional junior scientists to accelerate their entry into an independent research position at a "host" institution, essentially skipping the postdoctoral training period following completion of the graduate degree or clinical residency. Reducing the time to independence allows highly motivated and intellectually mature individuals to begin making contributions earlier in their research career, and invigorates research institutions by providing a means to recruit outstanding, early career scientists. Each institution (as defined by a unique DUNS number) may submit only up to two applications in response to this funding opportunity announcement. In order to apply for the EIA award, potential EIA candidates must "matchup" with an institution that is willing to submit an application on their behalf and host them as an EIA recipient. The NIH has developed this web resource to facilitate the "matching" process between host institutions and potential EIA candidates. Participation is voluntary, and does not obligate an institution or individual to "match" via the portal, or to submit an application to the RFA.
Institutions interested in using this portal to provide information broadly to prospective candidates may do so by clicking on the link below

| Posted by Max M. | (Panama City Beach, FL)I should say, this is a great radar detector for highway use. It has warned me of each and every officer I've come across. Surely, it's going to pick up some retail stores doors when in the city, which is why I actually don't use it that much for local travel. But for the money, it works as it's supposed to. Highly recommend both the product and these guys.
