iMovie adds trailers and more: Hands-on
iMovie started out on the Mac, and the desktop is still the best place to create movies, but the slimmed-down iOS version of iMovie ($4.99) keeps getting better with added features that bring something more to your clips.

Version 1 of our Visualizing Oral Histories project found us with a really nice interface for scholars with an interest in the oral history of decolonization of West Bengal and Bangladesh. The interface and the back-end provide a platform that we hope can be used by other collections of data of this kind.
Another result of Version 1 was a huge amount of data processing that is now readily available for other interfaces and tools to build upon. Each oral history is now transcribed into text, the text synchronized with the original audio file, entities of interest (e.g. people, places, and concepts) have been tagged and metadata attached to them.
Here is one idea I'm trying to find traction for. Click on the image below to see it in full view. Any refinements, ideas for moving it forward, comments on usefulness are more than welcome.
By the way, I sketched the idea using a fantastic tool called Cacoo. Definitely check that out.

Peter Lanyon
The Mural Studies
28 November 2013 – 18 January 2014
Peter Lanyon was born in 1918. The son of Cornish parents, he was passionately involved with his native landscape. He thought of himself as a true landscape painter in the English tradition and despised being linked with the 'St Ives School' – He made paintings, he said, which owed their existence to the place and not 'New York or the Moon'. Breaking away from the early influences of Gabo and Nicholson, he quickly forged a unique vocabulary born of his interaction with the western Cornish peninsular. He explored it by foot, from the air – through his gliding experiences, by car, and from beneath – climbing down into local mine shafts. His 'constructions' were explorations of spatial concepts realised through his experiences and were often studies for translation to the plane of the canvas.
This exhibition focuses on a little known aspect of his work – the mural commissions. Between 1959 and 1963 he completed three major mural works; at Liverpool University – 'The Conflict of Man with Tides and Sands' (1959-60); at the house of the American collector Stanley J Seeger at Frenchtown, New Jersey (1962), and at Birmingham University (1963). In a recorded interview in 1962 Lanyon spoke of his enthusiasm for the medium: "I'm beginning to like mural painting more and more. It suits landscape painting and modern architecture – the modern glass buildings…Part of the challenge of the mural is to understand something much bigger than yourself – one I'm doing for America is over 30 feet long – and we don't have the old kinds of walls any longer. We have sides of glass; walls that are windows onto space; that enclose space. It's tremendously exciting to paint for them."
The exhibition will include the final large scale gouache sketches for the Liverpool and Birmingham murals, as well as other studies and work derived from Lanyon's exploration of the medium. The majority of these works have rarely been seen in public.

Your child has been diagnosed with Grave's disease. This is the result of an overactive thyroid gland, which produces too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism). Hyperthyroidism may cause a variety of symptoms and may affect all body functions. Thyroid hormone is important to body growth and metabolism. If your child has too much, many of the body's processes speed up or overreact. Three options are available to treat Grave's disease: medications, radiation, or surgery. Here's what you need to know about home care following treatment.
Your health care provider will discuss medication options with you. There are two anti-thyroid agents that may be considered. In addition to these drugs, other medications such as a beta-clocker may be used at the beginning treatment.
Anti-thyroid medications may cause side effects such as itchy skin, or more serious symptoms such as persistent nausea/vomiting, yellowing of the skin, or muscle pain. Tell your health care provider of any new symptoms so he or she may determine if the medications are causing the symptoms.
Remission of Grave's Disease can take a long time in children and is more successful if the anti-thyroid medication isn't stopped until the thyroid has returned to its normal size.
Follow these tips for taking anti-thyroid medications:
Never stop your child's treatment on your own. If you do, your child's symptoms will return.
Make sure your child takes his or her medication exactly as directed.
Have your child take his or her medication at the same time every day. Depending on your child's needs, medications may be given once, twice, or three times a day.
Keep the pills in a container that is labeled with the days of the week. This will help you remember whether you've given medication to your child each day.
Talk with your health care provider about prescribing ointments or artificial tears, if needed, to soothe your child's eyes.
Use extra pillows in bed to prop your child's head up. Sleeping with the head elevated will reduce eyelid swelling.
Protect your child's eyes from dust and drying wind. If your child is old enough, he or she can wear glasses with side guards to protect the eyes.
Keep a card in your wallet that lists the following:
Your name and contact information
The name of your child's health care provider and contact information
The name of your child's disease
The brand name and dose of your child's medication
During routine visits, tell your child's health care provider about any signs of hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormone), such as:
Rapid weight loss
During routine visits, tell your child's health care provider about any signs of hypothyroidism (too little thyroid hormone, which can be a side effect of treatment), such as:
Fatigue or sluggishness
Puffy hands, face, or feet
Muscle pain
Slow pulse (less than 60 beats per minute)
Make a follow-up appointment as directed by our staff.
Make and keep appointments to see your child's health care provider and get lab work. Your child may need to be monitored for the rest of his or her life.
Call the health care provider right away if your child has any of the following:
In an infant under 3 months old, a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher
In a child 3 to 36 months, a rectal temperature of 102°F (39.0°C) or higher
In a child of any age who has a temperature of 103°F (39.4°C) or higher
A fever that lasts more than 24-hours in a child under 2 years old, or for 3 days in a child 2 years or older
A seizure caused by the fever
Sleeplessness, anxiety, or tremors
Feeling sweaty and hot, even when others nearby are comfortable
Shortness of breath
Trouble focusing the eyes
Bulging eyes
Weight loss for no obvious reason
Rapid pulse (higher than 100 beats per minute)
Enlarged thyroid gland (goiter)

The airport is south of Center City and one SEPTA train ride away. In South Philly, locals choose between Pat's and Geno's for an authentic cheese steak. Both are in the 100-year-old Italian Market, an open-air market spanning 10 city blocks. Major professional teams play at venues near the airport including Lincoln Financial Field, Citizens Bank Park, and Wachovia Center.

"Not much"
This is why the phrase bare bones was created. The staff was very professional and accommodating, it was close enough to the city center, but the photograph of the room on the website does the room too much justice; the room is tiny and has no refrigerator.

We were picked up from the airport by the shuttle for free. Good service. Hotel clerks were very friendly, and helpful. Lobby was small, breakfast area with big screen tv, was clean and spacious.

It was great that the hotel offered a free shuttle service to and from the airport. However, it is not made very clear how or where to get the shuttle once at the airport.

"Run-down on the inside"
Much better maintained on the outside than the inside. Hotel service staff were very good, but it looked like the place was not well-maintained inside. First time in a long time that my room was not clean. This hotel seems to attract some noisy people on the weekend. Overall, not recommended.חוות דעת אמיתית של אורח Hotels.com

"Would stay again"
Flew in for a night to catch the Phillies game. I called for the airport shuttle and the driver was there to pick me up in less than 10 minutes. Both the shuttle driver and the lady at the counter were very friendly and informative. The hotel is only a block from the bus stop, and 2 blocks from the train to downtown.

"Okay, but I won't stay there again"
My main complaint was how noisy it was - doors slamming up and down the halls starting about 4 am... made it hard to sleep. We just stopped for a short stay in Philly and this worked out okay but this hotel was the least nice of the 3 we stayed in during our vacation. I didn't feel it was a great bargain at the rate I paid, but it did the job.

"Close to the airport but..."
This hotel is close to the Philadelphia airport, but it is in need of a "makeover." The room was only clean in the middle - edges of the carpet, edges of the tile, tops of the outlets & light switches were all dirty. The faucet in the sink & in the tub leaked.

Here's how RW members rated this race (12 votes).
In short: A pleasant run but organisationon race day left a lot to be desiredIn full: Said it was a 5 miler and although they said the course had been slightly altered due to the snow, it was still 5 miles. At the end my garmin said 4.51 and friends said 4.61! Judging by the 'quick' time for me I would suggest the course was wrong.The organisation to the race was excellent however race day could have been better - marchalls didnt seem to know where the start was and I heard the winner was mis directed on the start of the second lap. Toilet facilities and hot drinks nearer the start/finish would have been appreciated. Course itself was fine, a mix of roads and grass with a few icy bits in places. So all in all I give it a B-,could do better.Date of review: February 12, 2012
In short: Great excuse to get out in the cold and snowIn full: Was here last year and the marshalling was a big improvement on 2011 - well done. Shame the course could not be the full 5 miles due to conditions but a good morning out, Reading campus is nice to run around and no pressure at all if you are a first timerDate of review: February 12, 2012
In short: Great pre-half marathon training runIn full: Did this in 2011 and just finished the 2012 edition. Whilst the snow/ice meant the course had to be slightly shortened, it was low key, but a good field, pretty course and the multi terrain offered a great workout and challenge. For anyone doing the wokingham half next week, this was/is perfect training and taper. Wasnt really very clubby, but if you consider its run by a non-profit that does a load of great work for charities, you cant complain. Every type of size/shape of runner was out today and it offered a great low key non-pressure run and actually quite a warm atmosphere. Would be great for beginners. I'll try and build this into my program every year as its a quite training session and a chance to run the rare 5 mile distance. Date of review: February 12, 2012
In short: A good low key themed eventIn full: An excellent 5 mile event - low key but I think that will change in future years. Nice course set inside the University grounds with loads of car parking nearby & helpful marshals along the way. Nice bar to enjoy a post race drink. Well done.Date of review: March 23, 2011
In short: A well run event with enjoyable multi-terrain, ideal for a first attempt and would definitely consider doing it again next year.Date of review: March 18, 2011
In short: Good course, worth doing but a shame about the turnout.Date of review: March 14, 2011
In short: Very pleasant run round Reading UniIn full: Small field 52 but grown from previous year, hope it continues. Quite a fiddly route so could have done with a few more marshalls and a couple did not really know what they were doing. Also a signpost or two to the start car park would have been good!!However there was a very cheery atmosphere, most marshalls were supportive, the organisation niggles minor and I really enjoyed it. Look forward to next year! Date of review: March 12, 2011
In short: Friendly, fun race, could do with a bit better course organistaionIn full: Race has a relaxed, laid back feel, appropriate for an Irish themed race :) Course was nice to run, but wasn't the easiest to follow, as needed a few more marshals (or prominent arrows). This was apparent on lap two, when the course seemed to change slightly due to one marshal changing location. Still, a fun race to do, glad I heard about it at the last minute.Date of review: March 12, 2011
In short: Was ok, not a big field thoughIn full: Race was fine. Not many runners though (50-70ish?), so field got a bit strung out...which was a slight problem due to there probably being 2 or 3 marshals less than what was required. A few people took wrong turns here and there. Was a decent alternative to a solo training run though. Hopefully they give it a better try next year, expand the field (course could have taken several hundred runners) and improve the org. Considering it was charity based, cant really complain too much. Date of review: March 12, 2011
In short: Lots to learn, good basis to work from.In full: Well, rocked in with 6th place, so pretty happy with my performance, but a lot to be learnt.Pros>Quiet course>Lots of parking available on campus>Reasonable price for a 5 mile race>I love a medal and a little goody bagCons> Bad Marshalling, i.e.- Marshall stood on corner, didn't indicate direction to go until I was on the corner- Corners unmarshalled- Tiny bits of bunting used as markers, not easy to see 200m off> Almost no signposting of car park, and almost no signposting for toilets, drinks> Race start was a flag, with no clear lineMay be back, shall see.Date of review: March 12, 2011

Coming off a fourth-place finish in their inaugural season, the Lancers are looking to take another step forward in 2012-13, but they're going to have successfully navigate through a challenging 26-game schedule, which was released Tuesday.
"We've had a good recruiting season and I believe we've improved our team," said CBU Head Coach Tim Collins, who is set for his 11th season at the helm of the Lancer program. "This year's schedule has us playing three games against teams we've never competed against but also three games against good teams from the California Collegiate Athletic Conference. It should prepare us for the PacWest."
The Lancers' seven non-conference opponents combined to go 103-84 last year.
The season begins at home Nov. 17 against second-year NAIA program UC Merced. The Lancers return the trip to Merced Dec. 1.
Other non-conference home games include NCAA Division II program Young Harris (Nov. 21), La Sierra (Nov. 27) and NAIA Dakota Wesleyan (Dec. 29). Young Harris will be in candidacy year 2 in the NCAA Division II membership process after going 22-4 last year. The 2012-13 season will be just its third year as an intercollegiate program.
The Lancers will host one and hit the road against a pair of CCAA teams, all of which finished in the top seven in the conference last year. CBU hosts Cal State L.A. Nov. 24 in a rematch of a game won by the Golden Eagles in Los Angeles last year. The Lancers are also playing in the Cal State San Bernardino Tournament against Cal State San Bernardino (Dec. 17) and Cal State Stanislaus (Dec. 18). Both of those games will be at Citizens Bank Arena in Ontario.
The PacWest schedule begins Dec. 4 at home against former Golden State Athletic Conference rival and new PacWest member Fresno Pacific.
Other key home dates include Grand Canyon (Jan. 2), defending PacWest Champion Dixie State (Jan. 5) and new PacWest members Azusa Pacific (Jan. 15) and Point Loma (Feb. 21). The Lancers go on the road for six of their final seven games.
"We will not surprise any of the PacWest opponents after finishing in the top four last year," said Collins. "I anticipate receiving everyone's best effort when they play us this year. It's going to be very competitive, especially since we've added three more former GSAC rivals, which will bring back some of our traditional rivalries."
CBU is coming off a 16-10 campaign and a fourth place finish (11-9) in its first year in the PacWest. The Lancers return six players from last year, including a pair of All-PacWest performers in Luke Evans and Ivan Patterson.

Food (and wine) - 96/100
Instead of ordering the classic and safe dishes such as: langoustine, turbot or lambs, I had "flavor of the earth" for the entree and French beef for the main course. The appetizer consist of arugula ravioli "soup" which is very earthy and delicious - the star. The rests - I also like the small piece of sweet veal as well as the "clear Chinese herbs" soup that is suitable given the cold weather - hot and spicy. The mushroom cream is too one sided, I could hardly taste the vegetables underneath while the stem lettuce sorbet is so so. For the main course ... I had a fantastic roast beef - a perfect dish for me! It's prepared medium, with a few layers of fat. The meat is melt a bit, but at the same time I could still chew and feel its texture. With such good dish, I didn't mind not having the rest of the side dishes :-) The bone marrow is OK, but I've never been a fan of it, while the beef stew is tasty except the carrot sauce is too sweet. The beef "tartare" and thin potato chips are decent. I like the beef muzzle the least here
Also for the desserts ... instead of the famous parade of 9-10 desserts, I chose the ginger chocolate instead. The ginger is pretty much overtaken by the intense, strong and high quality of chocolate. The souffle was smooth, served differently on a plate and a bit crisp at the top. The chocolate cream and powder were yummy. Some more it's intensified with the Pedro Ximenez dessert wine. But at the same time, to bring down the cloying taste if any ... the dessert included kirsch at the side. For the wines, I had a glass of white - 2006 Chateau Revelette Le Grand Blanc and a glass of red - 2004 Domaine Gauby Cotes du Roussillon. Oh, I noticed that during my 2 visits, the restaurant never charged me for the mineral water. The food this time was almost as good as my 1st visit ... only 1 pts lower, but I'm still very satisfied and would be very happy to return here anytime I have a chance. I gave 96/100 (a solid 2 3/4*)
Service (and ambiance) - 94/100
The service is consistent here, equally good if not slightly better since I was no longer a 1st timer. Except the manager, many of them could comfortably communicate in English. They're professional, attentive and friendly without being obstrusive. The decor of the restaurant ... I noticed no changes, just the ambiance was a bit more formal in the evening as expected. The restaurant is 80% full and more than half of them are foreigners. Chef Gagnaire was in Korea if not mistaken opening his latest expansion. Overall, I would give this place 95.5/100 (2 3/4*, with a side note as probably the most interesting restaurant in the world). A more detailed review, is here Gagnaire review And if you only care about the picture, click this link Gagnaire pictures fall 08

The press releases have been coming thick and fast this week so I thought I'd post them up in one go.
1. Military Rd gets new bike lanes:
The Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI) will begin the installation bicycle lanes on Military Road between Bower Road and Dunstone Road, Semaphore Park next week.
The bicycle lanes to improve safety for cyclists will be operational once line-marking and signs are in place.
They will operate during peak traffic periods from 7.30 am to 9.00 am and 4.30 pm to 6.00 pm from Monday to Friday, in both directions.
2. Churchill Rd gets new bike lanes between Torrens Road and Regency Road.
The lanes will be installed between Avenue Rd to Castle Ave and Regency Rd to Albert St and are peak period lanes operating from 7.30 - 9am southbound and 4.30 - 6pm northbound. The aim of these new lanes are to fill in the gaps on Churchill and ensure consistency. There is a long letter with more info attached.
3. Greenway works - Improved safety near the Emerson Overpass for cyclists and pedestrians.
As part of the State Government's Greenways project, pedestrians and cyclists will soon enjoy upgraded facilities near the Emerson Overpasswhich will make crossing South Road and Cross Road safer and easier.
The upgrade to the pedestrian and cyclist facilities seeks to improve safety, increase connections and provide off-road alternatives for cyclists to negotiate the intersection, including:
- modifications to the pedestrian and cyclist refuge islands at the intersection enabling increased space for pedestrians and cyclists waiting to cross over Cross Road.
- upgrading existing foot paths to shared walking and cycling paths.
- installing ramps leading up to the cyclist and pedestrian tunnel under Cross Road.
Works are scheduled to begin late April 2012 and are expected to be completed end of May 2012, weather permitting.
One more!
Due to work done on a new playground around the Bonython Park kiosk, the path by the kiosk will be closed for a few months, as will the bit of the Park Lands Trail from Port Road to the Torrens. Cyclists using the Park Lands Trail will be directed via Gaol Road instead. Release
Hopefully tho the motorist is slowing for the roundabout. I'm sure the designers are expecting the more experienced and confident cyclist to be taking control of the lane prior to the end of the bike lane as you suggest.
Yep its a bit of a botch job. The "corrected" line marking just fires you into the path of cars coming up behind. I guess now all the traffic islands are in place its tricky to fix properly. I'd prefer that they painted the bike lane bright green with a whopping big bike symbol, and then just leave it as dashed lines
I think you are missing the point. According to previous posts the bike lane leads you to the roundabout and the bikerider takes control of and rides in the middle of the traffic lane. If you think about it if the bike lane continued right up to the island the cyclist would be caught out on the left hand side of the lane and find it very difficult to make a right hand turn and cross the line of traffic coming from behind that is going straight on. A confident cyclist will have entered the traffic lane prior to the merge a less confident cyclist will prop in the bike lane and wait for a gap in the traffic to enter and ride in the middle of the traffic lane. As I think Sophia has said earlier this is the training given to kids at school.
My understanding of the linemarking is that dashed lines can be crossed by cyclists and cars and therefore indicate crossing points. If it was dashed lines all the way Cars could cross it anywhere right up to the splitter island legally.
To the people who can identify the before and after photos of bicycle lane marking on Military Road. I reported the hazard. For my records, please let me know which suburb/s: Semaphore South, Ethelton, West Lakes Shore or Semaphore Park. Near Bower Road, so could be any of the 4.
Well technically the approach on Military Road is from the South heading north so therefore it is on the Semaphore Park side of the intersection. Confusingly Sema4 Park is South of Sema4 South. Bower Road is the boundary between Semaphore South and Park and both West Lakes Shore and Ethelton are adjoining suburbs to the East some distance from the intersection.
Good old Google.
Thanks. I use nearmap but last update 3 days before planned installation of bike lanes.
In January I attended a cycling conference where Bob Cumming presented info on roundabout design and how to improve cyclist safety. He recommends that cyclists merge with motor vehicles about 50m before the actual roundabout. Info here which I am yet to read. http://www.australiancyclingconference.org/images/stories/acc-2012-...
I perused info from an earlier presentation by Bob Cumming on roundabouts and cyclists.
A bicycle friendly roundabout: Designing to direct cyclists to ride where drivers look.
Bob Cumming
Page 1: All roundabout crashes occurring at Victorian roundabouts from 2005-2009 are assessed, with DCAs recategorised into roundabout crash types. The most common crash is "entering-circulating", accounting for 48% of all crashes. For crashes involving bicycles, they account for 82%, while no other crash type accounts for more than 4%. An entering car striking a circulating cyclist accounts for nearly a quarter of all roundabout crashes in Victoria.
Page 4: Bicycle lanes provide lateral separation from cars, which "feels safe" to cyclists. However, if bicycle lanes separate cyclists from the path that drivers check before entering roundabouts, "feeling safe" may be at the cost of real safety . . . Bicycle circulating lanes and/or bicycle lanes on approaches remove that choice and ensure a complex, dangerous conflict point environment.
Page 5: Fay Patterson (2010) presents a review of roundabout design practice from an Australian perspective. A major point of difference is that UK, Sweden, New Zealand and Australian favour tangential (flared) entry which keeps speeds high to increase capacity, while Germany, France, Denmark and Netherlands favour radial entries which slow vehicles and improve visibility for greater safety.
German roundabout design rules prohibit cyclists on the dangerous outside edge of circulating roundabouts. Schnull et al (1993) found that bicycle lanes and tracks increase risk over no treatment. Similarly, a UK study by Allot and Lomax Ltd (1991) showed that the outer 1.5m of a roundabout is dangerous for cyclists. Flared entries and wide circulating lanes are also identified as hazards for cyclists. Hyden & Varhelyi (Sweden, 2000) encourage small single-lane roundabouts, with cyclists merging with cars into a single traffic stream well before roundabout entries.
. . . The New Zealand 2-lane C-roundabout, developed by Campbell et al (2006) uses tight geometry to slow all vehicles to 30 km/h, and encourages central positioning of bicycles with centrally positioned bicycle logos.
. . . After researching 91 Belgium roundabouts, Daniels et al (2008) concluded that installation of a roundabout increased cyclist injuries by 27% and serious or fatal bicycle crashes by 41%.
Page 9: Cyclist safety will improve if we ensure that cyclists follow the primary conflict path, i.e. the middle of car lanes. Roundabout designs should: (1) make it clear to cyclists that the centre of the lanes is the place to be; (2) make it obvious to drivers to expect cyclists in the centre of lanes; and (3) make it safe for cyclists to merge in the middle.
These are similar to the goals adopted by designers of the New Zealand 2-lane C-roundabout.
In the proposed diagram, illustrated in figure 8, bicycle logos positioned centrally on approaches and circulating lanes show cyclists where to ride and show drivers where to expect cyclists.
Page 10: Approaching vehicles are slowed with "BIKE MERGE AHEAD" pavement signs and, on higher speed roads, upstream lane narrowing for the car lane. Through the bicycle merge zone, bicycle lane lines are dashed and bicycle symbols with diagonal arrows direct cyclists to merge.

WAUKESHA, Wis. (AP) — The city of Waukesha (WAU'-keh-shau) has submitted an updated application to Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources for permission to use Lake Michigan for its drinking water.
The Milwaukee-area community is under a federal order to find a new source because the underground aquifer it uses is tainted with radon.
The city is only 15 miles from Lake Michigan but outside its watershed, although it's in a county that straddles the line. A regional compact requires that such outliers get permission from all eight states that drain into the Great Lakes before withdrawing their water.
Dan Duchniak (DOOK'-nee-ak) of the Waukesha Water Utility said Monday that the revised application updates the city's conservation plan. He says Waukesha would return as much treated water to the lake as it removes.

Have you ever been at a nice, warm campfire and you feel so good, then someone tells you a ghost story that makes you scared to death? Well that happens to a lot of people and it's been happening for a long time to. People believe that campfire stories have been here as long as fire has, that's really old! No one knows who invented the campfire story though. Campfire stories are best to tell when you're in the woods and it's night time because that's when you start to hear things and you think somehting is watching you, which only makes the story more scary and better. Some of the stories are famous old ghost tales . For example every christmas people hear about the story A Christmas Carol - the famous tale of Ebenezer Scrooge and his ghost of christmas past , present, and future. Do you have a favorite ghost story? Is it about a scary creature? If so comment me what it is. There are a lot of scary tales to tell. Some feature ghosts, while different ones are scary mysteries, myths, legends or tall tales. As you listen to these your body will react in different ways like your heart will probably beat faster, you mght get goose bumps or you may start to shiver. Those things happen to a lot of people while listening to scary stories.
tradition - Scary stories are what a lot of people tell while at a campfire.
shiver - shaking in fear.
impact - The amount of fright you feel at a time.

Men's DII College Top 25, Oct. 10, 2012 - Now Free |
Rankings - Men DII College |
Our top eight stay the same, while formerly No. 9 Bentley and No. 12 Rhode Island lost on the weekend. Now 2-2 URI was blanked 25-0 by Norwich, so it topples all the way to No. 24. The win propels the Cadets to 4-2, with the only losses coming to DI-AA Brown and Canadian Bishop. Bentley was the highest ranked to team to lose on the weekend, dropping a close game to St. Michael's, so it falls to No. 14. Mary Washington was the third ranked team to lose, but the Mothers fell by just three to Radford. So Mary Washington stays drops just one spot, while Radford moves up two. Georgetown dropped its first game of the season to Salisbury. The Sharks are No. 2 in the country, so we don't kill the Hoyas for the loss, but it'd be quite a feat for them to reach the postseason coming from maybe the toughest DII conference in the country. 1. (1) UW-Whitewater 3-0 Won 50-7 over Marquette |

So I'm a man who LOVES wms pre and postWO, the fullness is amazing without the uncomfortable bloat of glycerol. For 90 degree days the cellular hydration aspect is nice too.
Anyway, I havent heard much about it on the forums, but go check it out on the website if you havent already. Basically, its an unflavored blend of waxy maize starch, maltodextrin and dextrose. Perfect for postWO and it must be mostly wms because it has that unique wms flavor that i love rather than tasting sugary sweet.
I just mixed this with my postWO protein and thought I'd share my joy with everybody. The perfect product for its simplicity in aiding recovery and muscle gain.

Considering Liz had been the Jordache model since 2005, it's definitely time for her, and the company, to move on. What do you think?

I am also having an issue because i cannot find the toolbars with file, edit, ets on the top ?? Can anyone walk me through this as i am not tech savvy .... thanks, i really need some help.
Remembering your username and password is normally a function the the page your are using for your home page. Usually there is a checkbox you can select.
For the missing menu items, left click on the wrench at the far right of the address bar area in Chrome. You can also select the 'Settings' option there. The 'Help' function offers a lot of choices for new Chrome users. Check it out.

Kick off 15:00 BST at Rheinpark, Vaduz
England - Wickham 23',40'
France - Pogba 56'
Glenn Lavery in Liechtenstein
UEFA European U17 ChampionshipSemi-FinalRheinpark Stadion, Vaduz By Glenn Lavery in LiechtensteinEngland are just 80 minutes away from glory after a pulsating 2-1 defeat of France booked them a place in Sunday's UEFA European U17 Championship Final.Connor Wickham was the hero, grabbing a first-half brace, both with his left foot, but Paul Pogba's 56th-minute header led to a thrilling last half-an-hour at the Rheinpark Stadion in Vaduz, where the French tried, but failed, to find an equalising goal.John Peacock's side thoroughly deserved their two-goal lead at the break as they produced a dominant 40-minute performance, but France, sensing the reality of a semi-final exit, really took the game to England after the break and will feel slightly aggrieved not to have taken the game to extra-time at the very least. However, England were not to be breached for a second time and they held on valiantly with a first European trophy since 1993 still very much in sight.The victors began the game in confident fashion, enjoying a prolonged spell of possession as early as the third minute with Josh McEachran particularly prominent, drifting in from the left to cause problems for Pogba and Eliott Sorin in the heart of the French midfield.Just before the midway point in the half an injury to Will Keane brought Rob Hall into the fray, fresh from scoring the winning penalty against Turkey, but England should have gone ahead just moments before his introduction. Benik Afobe capitalised on some hesitancy in the French backline and bore down on goal. With only Alphonse Aréola to beat the Arsenal man hit his shot straight at the France 'keeper, who cleared with his feet.This chance livened proceedings up somewhat with Barkley coming close to getting his third goal at these Finals although he was initially denied at the near post by Aréola, then both he and Wickham saw rebounds blocked before Hall's volley was also turned away.Not to be outdone France eventually came into the game, pushing both full-backs, Samuel Umtiti and Youssouf Sabaly, high up the field with lone frontman Yaya Sanogo causing a threat up top and it was Sanogo who had France's first effort at goal, his ambitious overhead kick sailing over Jack Butland's bar.Then came the breakthrough that England had been threatening. Afobe, who had shrugged off his earlier miss, held the ball up well before slipping it to Wickham on the left-hand side of the box and the Ipswich Town forward found the bottom corner with a low, powerful left-foot strike.Just three minutes later, though, it took a great stop from Butland to maintain England's lead when Sanogo collected a long ball from the back and struck a venomous drive from the edge of the area. Although it was quite central it required Butland to get down quickly to his left and repel the effort with a strong wrist. As the French pressure increased, Pogba was the next Frenchman to test the Birmingham stopper with an effort from distance but Butland was behind it all the way and held well.However, with 40 minutes on the clock Wickham put England in a commanding position going into the break when he latched on to Coady's well-weighted through ball and found the back of the net with an almost identical finish to his first goal.At the beginning of the second half it took a goal-line clearance from Hall to prevent Sanogo from halving England's advantage from an indirect free-kick inside the area, after Butland was adjudged to have picked up a back-pass.Soon after, Barkley again came close to getting himself on the scoresheet when a driving run from midfield carried him 25 yards from goal where he let fly, forcing Aréola into a fine save.Guy Ferrier's side did pull a goal back on 56 minutes through Pogba after his shot forced Butland into the concession of a corner. England cleared the corner but the ball was clipped back in to the far post where Pogba rose above everyone to nod home.This goal appeared to galvanise France and they began to put the England backline under intense pressure. Anthony Koura came close to equalising when he swivelled to meet the ball just four yards out and headed over, and substitute Dylan Deligny also headed goalwards, but Butland, again, got down smartly to save.In between these efforts, Wickham sensed his hat-trick when he tore forward from midfield, easing past four French players before calling Aréola into action once more. It was then Sabaly's turn to dance his way down the right and into the England box, but his left foot lacked composure and he fired harmlessly over the bar.With just over ten minutes remaining, Peacock sacrificed the guile of McEachran for the solidity of George Thorne in midfield and the West Brom man justified the substitution with some assured touches.On 75 minutes Abdel Omrani flashed a header across goal which just crept past the far post, and, with just one minute left English hearts were in their mouths as Andre Wisdom scuffed his clearance from barely three yards out and he would have been mightily happy to see the ball come back off the body of Butland.Despite being asked to defend for the majority of the second half England dug deep, denying the French an equaliser and the Young Lions' determination and ability to see out the result will please Peacock no end ahead of Sunday's Final, where they will take on either Spain or Turkey.England13 Jack Butland, 2 Bruno Pilatos, 3 Luke Garbutt, 4 Conor Coady (C), 5 Nathaniel Chalobah, 6 Andre Wisdom, 7 Will Keane (11 Rob Hall, 16 (12 Ben Gibson, 80+1)), 9 Benik Afobe, 15 Josh McEachran (8 George Thorne, 68), 16 Ross Barkley, 17 Connor WickhamSubstitutes not used 1 Sam Johnstone, 10 Saido Berahino, 14 Tom Thorpe, 18 Luke WilliamsHead Coach John PeacockFrance1 Alphonse Aréola, 2 Youssouf Sabaly, 3 Alvin Arrondel, 4 Samuel Umtiti, 6 Paul Pogba, 7 Abdoulaye Doucouré, 9 Yaya Sanogo, 10 Anthony Koura (18 Abdel Omrani, 68) 13 Jérémy Obin (C), 14 Marco Rosenfelder (11 Dylan Deligny, 46), 15 Eliott SorinSubstitutes not used 16 Maxime Dupé, 5 Wesley Yamnaine, 8 William Le Pogam, 12 Lucas Digne, 17 Vincent La RouxHead Coach Guy FerrierMatch OfficialsReferee Stanislav Todorov (BUL)Assistant Referees Matej Žunič (SVN) and Roland Brandner (AUT)Fourth Official Antti Munukka (FIN)

I day deal on MSI 260 GTX for $142.99 AR shipped:
That link was for a MSI N260GTX-T2D896-OCv4 GeForce GTX 260 896MB.
Some info from http://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=126668.0
We'll have to see how well this single fan version keeps temps down. |
I have one of each and take it from me, v3 is the best. It not only runs cooler, but louder, it also does more work. Not by much, but noticeable.
You have a OCv2, OCv3 and a OCv4?
How much of a temp diff? Why would it do more work if the only diff was HS/FAN (and temp diff wasn't huge)? I guess we should try to see if they differ in maker of vRAM then. |
Yes, one each v2 and v3 and soon to be 2 v4.
The floating points and integer speeds are different. The v3 used to be way ahead, but not so much anymore with the newer drivers. The v3 was 2881 for floating point and 7456 for integer, now it's 2886 floating and 6561 integer. The v4, newest, is 2828 floating and 6449 integer. The integer rating has dropped but the floating point has risen, minimally. I don't know what the difference is. |
Does anyone make a GTX 260 with a single slot cooler? I'm getting the Asus PT6T for my new build and wouldn't mind grabbing another 260 for crunching and Tri-SLI. I still need to keep the last x16 slot available for my 8800GT( need it to be outside of my SLI set for my 3rd LCD).
Sir Steamroller doesn't do things halfway |
You might be able to remove the card's back-plate. But three GTX 260s exhausting heat into the case is a real ventilation challenge (tm). So one solution is a $400 USD Water-Cooled model from BFG Technologies. And then if you'll be running 4 GPUs, you'd better spec out a 1200W PSU. Good luck and take pix. |
Good points, I think my 750-watt Silverstone unit might be borderline for my new rig as is. Was trying to avoid having to go down the watercooling route to accomplish that. |
This is an awesome thread, thanks Fractal. Here is an article from Tom's Hardware where he benchmarks two CUDA cards with SETI@HOME. He basically gets a 8.5X or so speedup.
That article and this thread make me wonder. What would the ULTIMATE SETI@HOME CUDA box be? How many CUDA cards could you pack into a decent box, and how many units could you process? - AndrewZ |
AndrewZ, not sure about Seti points but here's the top GPUGRID machines, 1 with 6 GTX 295 cards and a whole page of boxes with 4 GPUs:
http://www.gpugrid.net/top_hosts.php How does well over 70,000 cobblestones/day sound on the GPUs alone |
ULTIMATE? There are quite a few threads on the foldingforum.org site with people discussing the pro's and con's of making an ULTIMATE box. It quickly becomes your definition of ULTIMATE. For some, it is the most PPD/box. How much work can you do in one box. That quickly gets refined to most PPD/motherboard so people don't cram multiple MB's in a box. But, for most of us, we want a balance between PPD/box, PPD/$ and PPD/w. Next factor in OS driver support and project preferences. So, without further delay, fractal's fractured choices. a. the least expensive motherboard with two pci-e slots. This looks like the MSI k9a2 cf-f. I have its predecessor and it is a fine board. Discussion: two GPU motherboards are still cost effective, and 3 slot spacing makes cooling much easier. While four GPU systems are slightly better in the PPD/w and PPD/$ category, they are much lower in the PPD/hassle category as keeping them cool is a royal pain in the rear and four high end GPU's are most often fed with a pair of PSU's with all that entails. b. the least expensive dual core processor to fit on the selected motherboard. That looks like the 4050e using newegg's prices. Discussion: the GPU does all the work. You need just enough CPU to feed it, so need the lowest power CPU you can find. BOINC, on the other hand, is brain dead and gives you one work unit PER CPU no matter how many GPU's you have. A quad core with 1 GPU gets four work units and can fail to meet deadlines. Matched CPU <> GPU works best for BOINC. You could get away with a sempron le if this were a dedicated FAH box or you believe you can get berkeley to fix boinc. c. two GPU's selected from the OP. The GTS250 is a great choice for FAH. The GTX260/216 55nm is a better choice for GPUGRID. I do not know if SETI takes advantage of the g200 series GPU's to make it worth the power. But, since you want the ULTIMATE, I'll sacrifice a bit of PPD/w and go with 2 x GTX 260 with rear exhaust. At $170 each these are the most expensive item in the system. d. My favorite $39.00 PSU won't quite hack a pair of GTX260's. And, while the molex -> PCIe adapters do work, it does mess up the case. A 500 watt PSU with two PCIe power connectors is going to cost 65-75. A PCP&C 750 with two 6 pin and two 8 pin that eliminates the need for any adapters is $90 after rebate if you wait for the sales, making it my choice for a budget GPU box. This same PSU is capable of a pair of GTX295's if one had the budget, though you might have to upgrade to a quad core processor if running BOINC. Add some bits and pieces and you would have something close to what I consider the ULTIMATE GPU box for about $700. People building quad gtx295 systems are looking at 4000-5000 per system. Using outlnder's gtx260's as a benchmark, I would expect 38,000 PPD from such a box running GPUGRID. SETI awards higher, so maybe 45,000 PPD running SETI. |
another deal on an OCed GTX 260, this time at newegg:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/...ds-_-LC4B-_-14127430 Use promo code: EMCLSMX39 Ends up at $144.95 AR shipped. Does around 18,000-20,000 cobbles/day in GPUGRID. |
FYI, of all my 260 GTX's, v4 runs the hottest. Of course, YMMV.
This one looks like a reasonable price, anyone have experience with these cards?
http://www.newegg.com/Product/...Item=N82E16814500087 $144.99 After Rebate EDIT: From the reviews I've been able to find, this card also runs pretty hot, and has only a 2 year warranty... [looks similar to the MSI 2yr parts/3 yr labor warranty] |
TheJet, it's also 10-15% slower than the MSI, for the same price.
outlnder, my MSI OC v4 so far has been running 55C at 70% fan and 61C at 60% fan. Yesterday it hit 97F here (a +60F swing from Saturday). Didn't get that hot in the downstairs room where the GPU boxes are though. What's your temp comparison for v2, v3 & v4? fractal, very nice analysis. I agree that a max of 2 GTX 260 cards/box is the way to go for cost efficiency and ease of cooling. On the cooling front I like the low cost Antec Three Hundred case.
On the AMD side the unlocked quads are going for as little as $90 with a great HS/fan. I'd recommend the AMD 780 & 790 based MBs. Might as well get some good CPU production too!
You need to upgrade BOINC to v6.6.23 or v6.6.28. The versions you're using don't know the difference between CPUs & GPUs. All my GPUs are on quads and none of them fetch too much work to do in a day. There are still issues to work out, mainly that you may have to zero out the cuda_debt now and then. |
Maybe my ZipZoomFly.com v4 is out of the norm, but it runs in the mid 60's at 70% fan. When the heat was up, all but the dual fan had to go to 100% fan to keep them within acceptable temps. |
Is your other v4 running as hot? One idea for those super hot days is to tone the factory OC back a ways with the EVGA tool. |
The other v4 is running a lot cooler. much like the v2. The dual fan v3 is the best. All GPU cards should have the dual fan setup.
For those who bought this card, you need to call the number below to get a valid invoice to sent in for the rebate. They will e-mail it to you. The online order form is not valid for the rebate. Have your order number ready: Monday-Friday 8:30 am to 5:30 pm PST at (510) 897-1890. |
Anyone looking for a cheap, cool running CUDA card may want to take advantage of this deal:
9600 GT for $88.99 CDN after rebate at NCIX The passive cooler may be useful if you're sensitive to noise, and I got decent PPD (by my standards) with a Gigabyte 9600 GT. If you don't need/want a more powerful card, this may be a good fit! |
If the bloody thing comes back in stock, this PNY at Fry's is the uber-budget conscious best buy. $50 after rebate for a 9600GSO with 96 stream processors. (That's 50% more than your 9600GT, MadMac_5)
With this MB, you could have seven single-width cardsor three dual-width cards in a standard case. If you're willing to go to extremes, you could get seven dual-width cards into a custom case. If ULTIMATE is in terms of speed only, use of seven S1070 units (1U rackmount with a x8/x16 interface slot) will give you 6720 GPGPU cores and 112GB of video memory. Nothing else even comes close, in terms of performance or cost (each S1070 is ~$8K ). For the more cost-conscious GPU cruncher, you could build a system based on the above MB, and make a riser setup (probably based on flex-risers) to support seven video cards. This would allow use of up to seven video cards, of whatever performance level you're willing to pay for. You'd need at least one, and possibly a pair of, 1.2KW PSU to drive the beast. Use of a 295 card will only give you 3360 GPGPU cores and up to 12.5GB of video memory. |
If you are going to spend that kind of money, you might consider doing what this guy did - http://atlasfolding.com/ ... 13 systems with 4 double cards each. That's 104 GPU's (about 10k shaders). You can find his discussion of the issues providing 13 kw to the heater and getting that heat out on his site somewhere.
Half a million PPD ain't nuttin to sneeze at. |
I was under the impression that the 9600 GSO had fewer stream processors than the 9600 GT; I guess that only holds for the newer "gimped" versions of the GSO. Thanks for the correction! |
Correct, some have 32, some 64, and a few shining stars have 96. A real steal when you can find one. |
A cheap (relatively) GTX 260 core 216 at the Egg. Use coupon code EMCLSMX39 (expires 5/25) to get an extra $10 off. Total comes to $144.99 after $20 mail in rebate with free shipping. This one is very tempting!
This are regular offers, and only OK deals - not great deals. I don't need another GPU.
The advertisers here may wish to stop advertising.. Marketers bore me. |
Sorry if you haven't been part of a team before, but that is what we do. We help each other out. If someone is looking to add to their farm they can find the info here. It's not a crime. In fact, it's actually welcome. |
Tell me your idea of a great deal for a GTX 260, and where/when it is available. |
If my great granddaddy taught me one thing it was "Don't feed the trolls"
Newegg has a "sell shocker" deal on the MSI N9800GT-T2D512-OC V2 ($60 AR shipped) that runs from 3PM PT until midnight.
This is the v2 which I THINK is the 55nm G92b chip. Anyone know if this is the case for sure? Link to the card (not on sale until 3PM PT): http://www.newegg.com/Product/...Item=N82E16814127406 Here's a link to the listing of relative card speeds in GPUGRID: http://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=867#7753 Edit: This one sold out in the 1st five minutes. Nothing like having a special and no stock to cover it I think Newegg needs a good slap in the head for this kind of thing. Newegg on their face |
Has anyone done a comparison of Cell Vs CUDA for BOINC projects? - AndrewZ |
Even the modest CUDA cards are faster than the PS3 at GPUGRID. The GTX 260 & up are much faster.
The top PS3 machines are still doing just under 5000 cobblestones/day, which is nothing to sneeze at. |
9800 GT 512mb for $65 with no rebate.
http://accessories.us.dell.com...&cid=7421&lid=197378 They have the 9600 and 9500 on sale too if you're more interested in those. |
The 9800GT has 112 Stream Processors. The 9660GT only has 64. Bummer, it's at my price point, too. |
I went a head and picked one up. The gf will probably be upset but it was a pretty good price. Looks like there may be a rebate for 20 dollars more off...
http://slickdeals.net/?sdtid=1...May15Jun3009jh28.pdf It says it's channel wide which most people think means from any retailer so YMMV. |
XFX 9600GSO on sale @ Newegg for $59 after rebate [and includes CoD, which I'll be glad to take off your hands ]... Looks to be the 96 stream proc version:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/...14-150-340-_-Product |
Here's another good deal on a card. From fatwallet:
A GTX 260 core 216 for $129.99 with free shipping. Use coupon code GFDW8472JG1HW3 to get 25% off, then there is a $20 mail in rebate. If I didn't already have two of these and a couple of 9800GTs, I'd be all over it. Hope it helps someone. |
