Leading international graphics card and mainboard maker MSI today announced the release of the MSI R7970 Lightning, the new heir to the throne of Lightning graphics cards. Equipped with AMD's 28 nm Radeon HD 7970 GPU, the MSI R7970 Lightning features an all-new Unlocked Digital Power Architecture that incorporates an Unlocked BIOS, Digital PWM Controller, and Enhanced Power Design to boost overclocking potential to new heights and make overclocking easier than ever. In an industry first, the proprietary "GPU Reactor" power supply module reduces power supply noise and also boosts overclocking stability as well. To keep this beast cool, the MSI R7970 Lightning utilizes the latest Twin Frozr IV Thermal Design equipped with Dust Removal Technology. The dual 10 cm fans with Propeller Blade Technology generate massive airflow for fast heat dissipation while remaining whisper silent. The two form-in-one heat sinks improve cooling for memory and the power supply module as well ensure structural integrity. The R7970 Lightning uses Military Class III components which have passed rigorous third-party testing to meet MIL-STD-810G standards, guaranteeing the card's stability and reliability under actual use conditions. Moreover, the "3X3 OC Kits" are designed to simplify overclocking, which makes it easier than ever for enthusiasts to fine-tune the performance of their graphics cards. For both professional users and gaming enthusiasts alike, the R7970 Lightning's ability to simultaneously run 6 displays makes it the natural choice! Unlocked Digital Power Provides Record-Breaking Potential The R7970 Lightning boasts an all-new Unlocked Digital Power architecture that provides record breaking potential. The key components involved include the Unlocked BIOS, digital PWM chipset, and an improved power supply design. Unlocked BIOS removes CCC overclocking limits, Power Tune limit is increased by 180%, and OCP limits are relaxed to completely unleash the graphics card's overclocking potential. The digital power supply signal provides voltage signals that are more stable and accurate than conventional analog designs, meaning the voltage can be adjusted more quickly and precisely during overclocking. The improved power supply design provides double the power of the reference board and consists of 17 power supply parameters, dual 8-pin power supply connectors, and the Lightning Power Layer (LPL) design. For true overclocking enthusiasts, the R7970 Lightning with Unlocked Digital Power is simply a dream come true! GPU Reactor for the Ultimate Power Core The MSI R7970 Lightning implements the innovative "GPU Reactor" power supply module which, when installed on the back of the GPU, increases current volume by 88%, reduces power supply noise by 13%, and improves overall overclocking stability. MSI GPU Reactor is easy to install and has built in safety features that make it easy even for ordinary users to install and remove. Extreme Cooling Design for Better Cooling and Structural Strength The MSI R7970 Lightning incorporates the next-generation Twin Frozr IV Thermal Design. The striking design of the new Twin Frozr IV comes from the two large 10 cm PWM fans with Propeller Blade Technology that cool the advanced cooling body of the Twin Frozr IV. Under the aluminum Twin Frozr IV body, you can find a high density fin grid array that provides heat dissipating area that is fed by heat-pipes featuring MSI's SuperPipe technology. MSI has also incorporated its exclusive Dust Removal Technology. Fans are running in reverse for 30 seconds after booting to remove dust from the heat sinks and keep the graphics card's cooling performance running at optimum levels. The R7970 Lightning also boasts two form-in-one heat sinks. One heat sink is located on the front of the graphics card to cool the memory and power supply modules, while the second heat sink on the back of the card helps to protect and reinforce the card structure. This extreme cooling design provides the R7970 Lightning with the best cooling performance and the most reliable structure. Premium Materials and User-friendly Overclocking Design MSI has always led the industry thanks to its unyielding commitment to product stability and quality and made sure that the R7970 Lightning was equipped with Military Class III components certified to MIL-STD-810G military standards in seven different categories by a third-party laboratory. Be it tantalum core Hi-c CAP around the graphics card, the CopperMOS cooling design, the form-in-one Golden SSC, or as the card's moisture/rust-proof Dark Solid CAP, all work together to provide the MSI R7970 Lightning with the best possible stability For overclocking enthusiasts, MSI has developed the 3X3 OC Kits: V-Check Points enable GPU, Memory and VDDCI voltage to be monitored while Triple Overvoltage and Triple Temperature Sensor enable overclockers to quickly fine-tune and track the performance of their graphics card using enthusiasts favorite Afterburner overclocking software. The 4 Mini DisplayPorts and 2 DVI ports on the R7970 Lightning enable AMD Eyefinity technology to drive 6 screen output with just one card, providing just the kind of performance industry professionals and gaming enthusiasts need. As the new king of graphics cards, the MSI R7970 Lightning features many innovative technologies such as Unlocked Digital Power, GPU Reactor, Twin Frozr IV Thermal Design and 3X3 OC Kits. These technologies demonstrate MSI's use of industry-leading Research & Design to provide customers with an even more perfect user experience and product performance.

1070 MHz review: http://www.hardwareheaven.com/revie...rclocked-graphics-card-review-conclusion.html Edit: Christian_25H, do you like the specs listed in that form or is it easier if every detail has it's own line?
I'm sorry, but... SINGLE-LINK DVI ports? So no 2560x1440 or 2560x1600 resolution on DVI for this card? That's a bit of FAIL! right there...
Nope, AT least one of them is dual link. Edit: It seems there is an error in the specs page, It says 2 single link DVI but further down its says Dual link DVI. Just an error I would say.
I 'was' RIGHT about 1070MHz when I predicted it about 10 days back(my post on Mar 7), during CeBit reveal.. I had attached a GPU-Z screenshot from a German site.. hardly anyone believed me .. anyways good overclock on stock 925MHz (& higher than PowerColor LCS model-1050MHz) Just to reiterate my score for looks .. here it is -> 9/10!!
10/10 means perfection, which according to me is not having any more room for improvement.. Just to reason at your question, I reduced 1 becos I dont like the GPU reactor core on the PCB.. they could have done it a bit differently if they wanted to use light effects.. again its my personal opinion, just saying becos u asked.. lets not dwell over it again.. thumbs up for the card!
Thanks for the feedback! GPU reactor is optional, if you have no room for it in your case, you can simply remove it. Honestly it's more a feature for extreme overclockers that really need every MHz out of their card, but it does offer some nice benefits for everyone that has the luxury of fitting it in their case (which is more than 99% of the people out there!) The "Light effects" themselves don't influence the height of the card though, it's only a power indicator.
Amend the tech spec image? XD I seriously physically jitter when my eyes gaze upon only SL-DVI ^_^;; Anyway, poor Sapphire, didnt even get 5 minutes of my attention thanks to this thing taking a dump on it lol - it would have to be significantly cheaper (which Im sure it wont be) than the lightning model to be considered at all.
They only got 1265 core, but didn't say the voltage, fan speed or temperature. Damnit Stewart Davidson. Someone who knows how to overclock must get one of these cards and dothorough review of the overclocking. MSI, please send one of these to Hardware.fr for them to review it. That site does a ton of overclocking testing with thermal imaging and logging of temps and volts through every stage of the overclocking process. Hardware heaven didn't do anything, and he's using old versions of software - gpuz 5.7. Since they don't tell us, I'll have to guess as to increase in voltage from 1.174v up a little to get 1265mhz core. And 1500mhz memory... I'll wager he didn't even touch Memory voltage, Vddci or aux voltage. Ugh. May as well have been "just another reference 7970 review" the way this testing has been conducted. This damn Lightning 7970 is made for overclocking and overvolting. Get this card to Wizzard, Damien, or XS forums so some good results can come up soon. The GTX680 drops next week, so we need some good results on the OC potential of the R7970 Lightning ASAP. No doubt it has the potential to leap frog the load of crap that is the Asus DCUII. If they have two chimpanzees and Hellen Keller doing quality control, MSI should have a better product than the Direct CU II boards. I'll just say 1265 is a good start and a stepping stone to 1800mhz on HWbot/XS. 6-8 months building this Lightning 7970, and release it 3 months after the reference 7970 debut and 1 day before the GTX680 debut without having some badass overclocking results to show the world along with it is terrible. MSI better be doing better QA testing than ASUS did. MSI already had the PCB design, wonder what took them so long. New revisions, testing drivers...
the more i see these prices, The more I think Im gonna skip a generation... Prices for a 7970 range from $680-760 Here in the UK which is just totally disgusting as newegg's prices start from UNDER $600
Not much to get, its a tad gimmicky (or if dust build up is a real concern - then sort your living conditions out and worry less about your rig!). Same idea as the 580 extreme, the fans just spin in the opposite direction on initial power-up, which should blow out some dust that may manage to settle with the fans constantly going in the same direction. No harm I guess but a good case coupled with not living like an animal (and/or on a building site) and its not going to change your life ;-p
'Dust removal tech', well it might seem gimmicky & redundant, but I guess it sort of works.. links here(official info) & here(video) @620$ its expensive for a single-gpu card.. but this card's features beg u to OC it!!.. and I believe in the right hands it could provide 'nitrox' like performance boost to this card.. there will be takers for this card, no doubt GTX680 cards sure have someone waiting for them..
lol yeah i just couldnt understand how dust could go away just by spinning the fans opposite. every few months i open the case and start the blower, only way to remove dust
I made this comment yesterday for the sapphire 7970 dual-x solution Today i would like to say i will definitely take the "sapphire direction." http://www.kitguru.net/components/g...re-hd7970-overclock-edition-dual-x-review/18/ @Neliz thanks for the link. Comparing both cards: (Weakness of the Lightning) Draws higher power, No performance difference, except the logical +70 mhz difference (as output FPS) Low memory mhz (maybe higher memory settings can heat more the card and draw more wattage) As i see Sapphire will hit top with the Dual-x among the 7970 series. Personally i want to see graphic cards showdown review, especially with the oc versions of 7970 or 7950.

Dont get LOST and heres why.....
By luke1984 (8 reviews) from colwyn bay , 03 Apr 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
LOST was only intended to be a one off series, but due to huge poplularity and high ratings ( deserved at the time - it was good ) producers decided to keep it going as long as possible.
Unfortunately this meant the witers - by their own admission didnt know where they were going with the story and just made it up as they went along. The result being during series 2 the plot became ever more complex and bizzare and the hope that the viewer may have of had of finding any satisfactory answers asked during series 1 diminished.- Was this review helpful to you?

(9)has too many annoying flashbacks
By ClaireDior (34 reviews) from Kilbirnie , 12 Jan 2013I haven't see the whole thing yet, I am only on the second disc. It is a great series but I am beginning to get annoyed with it already, I simply hate things that keep doing flashbacks, I am interested to see what happens to them on the island. But I am not in eh least interested in who they are or how they got there, it is the mystery of the island that is interesting. I have never liked anything that does flash backs but it is starting to look like half the whole series is used up by these silly flashbacks. I wish there was a version of this series with all these flashbacks omitted. Also I find these things confusing, I never understood why film makers today, think it is a great idea to make a story starting int he middle and go back and forth from past to present day without any warning like for example it does not say '2 months earlier' etc..it just jumps to the same people somewhere else and I m sitting thinking WTF? IT is a good series it is just one of my pet hates watching anything...flashbacks...I just wish they would start at the beginning and finish at the end, it would make a whole lot more sense. If there is much more flashbacks I will drop it from my list. I was enjoying it from disc one but was already a bit peeved off with the flash backs and I Stick in disc 2 and the very begging is a flashback. I am just very excited to see what all this on the island is about so going back to pointless things about who they are and showing them boarding the plane..is very boring. I actually had to put the disc off last night and put something else in, the flashbacks were annoying me...far too many of them- Was this review helpful to you?

An Astonishing Opening
By Aulis (12 reviews) from Wells , 29 May 2010Now Lost has recently finished totally, it's a good time to look back at how it all started. Is Lost the greatest television series ever made? I'm not sure about that sweeping statement, but that's not to say it's certainly close. Please, I implore new customers not to listen to luke1984 with regard to the first season - while his argument about later series might be correct, it would be a travesty to miss out on such a beautifully shot, moving, funny, and clever show for the sake of a few poor episodes and one two many mysteries later on.
A brief word on the Blu-Ray itself - Lost has always been well shot, and this version of it really shows it off. While some of the early special effects are a little ropey, overall it looks fantastic and the Blu-Ray is an excellent example of the format.
In short, a must see. Definitely.- Was this review helpful to you?

Rockets fired at Pakistan airport
on 15/12/2012 18:39:06
Peshawar is located on the edge of Pakistan's tribal region, the main sanctuary for al Qaida and Taliban militants in the country.
The city has been hit by repeated attacks in the past few years but an attack on the airport is rare.
None of the rockets landed inside the main airport area, which is jointly used by civilian authorities and the air force, said Pervez George, a spokesman for the Civil Aviation Authority.
Two of the rockets damaged a wall that surrounds the airport, and a third landed near a government building outside the premises, said Mian Iftikhar Hussain, the information minister in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, where Peshawar is the capital.
A gun battle broke out between security forces and militants after the rocket attack.
No militants were able to enter the airport, said the air force. No air force personnel were injured and none of their planes were damaged, it said.
The dead and wounded from the attack came from the neighbourhoods located near the airport, said Umar Ayub, a local hospital official. The wounded included women and children, and several people were in a critical condition, said Mr Ayub.
Local TV footage showed people in the neighbourhoods near the airport rushing for safety as the attack occurred. One car was damaged by the rocket fire and another was set on fire. A house was also damaged.
The airport has been closed, and flights are being diverted to other cities, said Mr George, the civil aviation spokesman.

THE LOYOLA MAROON Vol. 73 No. 11 • November 19,1993- • Loyola University New Orleans, LA 70118* Greek integration plan over, little progress made By Tina Bergeron Managing Editor Time has run out on an affirmative action plan requiring Greek organizations to integrate, but questions about the plan's success and the future of the committee that created it remain. A 1988 affirmative action plan by the Greek Life Committee required organizations to actively pursue racial integration that would reflect the ethnic diversity of Loyola without quotas. The plan also called for Greeks to make public their non-discriminatory policies. "Positive results are e xpec led to be measurable within the next five years with annual evaluation and revision as necessary," the plan states. But five and a half years after the plan's implementation, minority numbers are still low. Some associated with the Greek system are looking back on what happened during the plan's five-year framework, and what the future of affirmative action is for Loyola's Greek system. Membership figures for 1993, provided by the Student Activities Office, indicate that no traditionally white sorority currently has a black member. Comparing membership statistics from a 1987 Maroon article with 1993 statistics, traditionally white fraternities have shown some improvement in recruiting minority students. In 1987, both Alpha Delta Gamma and Sigma Phi Epsilon had one black member. ADG currendy has no black members, and Sig Ep has two. Phi Kappa Psi, which arrived on campus in 1988, currendy has three black members. Both fraternities and sororities have initiated more Hispanic members. A total of 14 Hispanic students are in fraternities this year, as compared to 10 in 1990. Likewise, sororities have increased Hispanic membership from 7 in 1990 to 13 this year. Membership figures also indicate that no whites, Hispanics or other minorities are members of traditionally black sororities or fraternities , except Delta Sigma Theta, which has one white Tulane student in its city-wide chapter. Tim Bamett, director of the Danna Center and adviser to the Interfratemity Council, said that no Greek Life Committee has met since he arrived at Loyola in 1992. The plan states that the Greek Life Committee, consisting of the two representatives of each Greek organization, selected advisers and Student Activities personnel, "continue to function as an advisory and evaluative entity to determine the effectiveness of the plan..." Former Danna Center director and IFC adviser Charles "Dusty" Miller said in April 1992 that the committee disbanded after conceiving the 1988 affirmative action plan. Miller said that affirmative action was one of 14 aspects of Greek life included in a report on Greek life accepted during the 1990-91 school year, but was no longer reviewed separately. Barnett said he believes that a lack of minority participation in rush has hindered efforts for significant improvements in the numbers of minorities in Greek organizations. He said that peer pressure within the minority community is a factor in the lack of minorities rushing, and that a minority student's deci- Heavy metal—Eric Johnson, an artist who visited campus for art week, prepares an Iron mold near the Danna Center/Photo by Amy Pr lllgrlnl UBC considering students' tuition ideas By Chris Bonura News Editor The University Budget Committee is expected to vote on next year's budget, which includes a 5 to7percent increase, on Dec 6. The committee sent the budget to a steering committee after Student Government Association President Erika Schwarz, first-year law student, told ÜBC members of student reaction to the proposed increase. "I think they are going to take the students' proposals and suggestions very seriously in the steering committee," the Rev. Joseph Currie, S.J., dean of campus ministry and ÜBC member, said. SGA Special Operations Director Jeff Rogers, first-year law student, who sits with Schwarz on the ÜBC, said he'snot so sure that what Schwarz proposed will have much effect "They were listening to us and they were happy to hear something coming from the students, but I don't know how much weight they gave it," Rogers said. Schwarz and Rogers presented an alternative to the 6.73 percent increase Schwarz says the ÜBC was leaning towards. The 6.73 percent increase would raise tuition to $ 11,100 a year. Schwarz proposed a 4 percent tuition increase, which would raise tuition to $10,800. The SGA proposal would raise faculty salaries a minimum of 3 percent. It also suggests that the ÜBC reallocate money budgeted for Physical Plant and program initiatives. The budget based on a 6.73 percent tuition increase would provide a S percent increase in salaries. Schwarz said that the university should make more of an effort to retain students. "We spend a lot of money recruiting ... and we'll bend over backwards to get students to come to the university," she said. "But, for the most part, we don't do enough to keep them here," she said. The Salary Issue Dr. Daniel Sheridan, religious studies professor and ÜBC member, said that the university is falling behind in faculty salaries and faculty maintenance. According to Sheridan, students at last week's SGA tuition forum who complained that service didn't increase with tuition were missing the point. "If we don't have the increase, we're going to fall back," he said. Schwarz thinks that the salary increases should be equivalent to the cost of living increase, which she said was between 3 to 4 percent Schwarz added that students also have to deal with increased cost of living. Sheridan said that if you average in the year that there was no salary increase, then a 3 to 4 percent salary increase does not fully compensate for cost of living increases. Physical Plant Schwarz said that funds allocated to the physical plant fund and programs initiatives fund should be reallocated to faculty salaries. Sheridan said that he thought the money allocated for Physical Plant and programs initiatives was necessary, for exactly the same reason that Schwarz said they are unnecessary—they weren't funded last year. "If we had money left over in the past, then we would keep up the university like we should," he said. "But we could be putting in $1,000,000 into that line [plant fund] and it would be money well spent." Currie agreed that Physical Plant needs the money. "It's a problem; you can't let the buildings deteriorate," he said. Tuition Fund Schwarz said that the ÜBC should set up a fund to offset tuition increases. She says that extra funds should not be redistributed to departments, but See Greek Integration, pg. 3 See Tuition, pg. 4 lINSIDp This Week MLj Statehood Status?

There are many times when I look back in FreeBSD's source code control history to better understand a particular piece of code I am working on. I can better understand why a section of code is written the way it is by seeing the changes in that section of code across time along with the rationale for those changes in the log messages. Sometimes while doing this I run into a wall since FreeBSD's history stops at the import of the 4.4BSD sources from CSRG. I have often longed to dive farther back into the code's history.
The good news is that the folks at CSRG maintained their own source code repository using SCCS. Dr. Marshall Kirk McKusick sells a 4-disc CD set that contains the SCCS repository (along with several other bits). SCCS is a bit awkward to work with, however, so recently I derived a Subversion repository from the SCCS repository.
The Tools
The main tool I used was sccs2svn.py. This script required a couple of FreeBSD ports to be installed: devel/py-subversion and devel/cssc. In addition, I had to patch sccs2svn.py to fix several things:
- Subversion 1.7 requires client.svn_client_create_context() to create a context rather than client.svn_client_ctx_t().
- Fixups to correct the timestamp on each commit in SVNInterface._commit() were applied to the previous revision rather than the revision being committed.
- One CSRG commit contained CR ('\r') characters in a log message that had to be converted to LF ('\n') to be accepted by Subversion.
- One SCCS file contained a corrupted log message that was not valid UTF-8. I used this patch to get past the failure so I could identify and fix the corrupted log message.
- By default, the sccs2svn.py script makes two passes over the entire repository at the end of the conversion process applying fixups to SCCS keywords and ID strings. These passes are intended to allow for future development in the resulting Subversion repository. However, in this case of converting an historical repository, these passes merely added noise and obfuscation. I added a new –pure option to disable these passes.
The command line used to run the conversion was:
python sccs2svn.py -u sccs2svn -o /home/csrg/svn -i /home/csrg/sccs -p
A few of the SCCS files contained errors (single-bit errors) and the repository also contained a few "bad" SCCS files that muddled the results. For the "bad" SCCS files I simply removed them from the copy of the SCCS repository I used for the conversion. The following errors I fixed by hand:
- usr.bin/pascal/src/SCCS/s.main.c had a corrupted status line for its initial revision where a '0′ (0×30) had been replaced with a 'p' (0×70).
- usr.bin/pascal/pdx/machine/SCCS/s.printerror.c had a corrupted status line for its initial revision where a '5′ (0×35) had been replaced by a '^U' (0×15).

Artist's concept of NASA's Orion crew capsule with a service module provided by the European Space Agency.
Image: ESA
LONDON — The European Space Agency has some ambitious resolutions for the New Year. The year 2013 will include the agency's first spaceflight for its newest class of astronauts, the launch of its latest robot cargo ship Albert Einstein, and the development of new rockets and spacecraft, including a reusable space plane and work on NASA's new Orion capsule.
January and February should see agreements and contracts signed for the new rockets, Ariane 5 Mid-Life Evolution (ME) and Ariane 6, and for ESA's participation in NASA'sOrion space capsule. ESA is providing the service module for the Orion capsule, which NASA plans to use to fly astronauts on future deep-space missions.
With deadlines in 2014 for the rocket work, and 2017 for an unmanned Orion test flight, ESA officials know 2013 will see lots of activity right from the start.
"The Orion service module funding has been approved, so now the usual work process starts. I think [the NASA-ESA agreement signing] is in January. It should be rather early from what I've heard, it is something to be done towards the beginning of the year," Franco Bonacina, spokesman for ESA's director-general, Jean-Jacques Dordain, told SPACE.com. [Meet the European Space Agency (Video)]
Powerhouse for NASA's Orion
ESA will provide one service module for Orion's 2017 test launch. The module's preliminary design review, or PDR, is planned for July 2013. The PDR is a major milestone for spaceflight projects, allowing managers to check a spacecraft's design progress.
The ESA service module's previous review, the system design review, occurred in September 2012, and the next major design review is not until 2015. The service module will provide propulsion, avionics, heat control and energy from solar arrays. It will also store water, oxygen and nitrogen for life support.
ESA's Orion module is being delivered as an in-kind contribution for International Space Station (ISS) operations, for the period 2017 to 2020. The module is expected to cost ESA several hundred million dollars.
Europe's new rockets
Before the Orion work shifts into gear, a pair of two-year studies is due to begin at the start of 2013 for the agency's Ariane 5ME and Ariane 6 rockets. This is so ESA can make a decision about the future of its launchers in late 2014.
Operated by the company Arianespace, the workhorse Ariane 5 rocket launches ESA missions and commercial satellites. The rocket launches from the South American territory of French Guiana and is able to launch two spacecraft at a time. It first flew in 1997 and can launch up to 22,000 pounds (10,000 kilograms) into orbit.
The new Ariane 5 version, the Ariane 5ME, has already been in development for many years and it had been planned to be operational from 2016. It will be the same height, excluding the nose cone, and weight as its predecessor, but will be able launch an additional 2,540 pounds (1152 kg) of payload, with a maximum payload of 24,640 pounds (11,176 kg) for geostationary orbits.
The Ariane 5ME will use a new upper stage and rocket engine, the Vinci, and has a larger nose cone. If approved in 2014, the Ariane 5ME could be operational towards the end of this decade.
However, ESA has concluded that it needs a simpler rocket that can launch more frequently with only one payload onboard. This is the planned Ariane 6, which was originally called Next Generation Launcher (NGL).

Known as "the playground of the South," this charming southern city is located in the heart of Harrison County in the deepest part of the Mississippi Sound. With it's recent major improvement projects, charming coastal waterfront and loads of southern hospitality, it is easy to see why so many Mississippians are snatching up great Biloxi apartments for rent. According to information from the U.S. Census Bureau, the city is seeing a growth in population of nearly 45,000 residents, making it the perfect small town to raise a family in.
The history of Biloxi is a storied one. Eight different countries' flags have flown over the city since it was founded in the late 1600s, which is a testament to its diverse and exciting culture. But before all of that, it was inhabited by Native Americans as early as 8,000 B.C. At first, Biloxi was under French rule and part of Louisiana long before Mississippi was granted statehood in 1817. For years during the Antebellum period of the South, Biloxi was a summer resort for many Southern aristocrats.
During the Civil War, Biloxi was occupied by Union Forces, who blockaded the very profitable harbor and slowed the economy of the blossoming city. After the war, the city was forced to reinvent itself. It wasn't until the L&N Railroad came into the city that the busy seafood industry in Biloxi was finally exposed to the rest of the country. By the turn of the 20th century, Biloxi had become the seafood capital of the world with more than 40 seafood canneries and factories along the coastline.
In the 1930s and 1940s after a United States Coast Guard station was built in the area, the city began to grow a strong military community as well. The city has suffered many hurricanes over the years since Biloxi lies on the Gulf Coast, but residents have always prepared, picked up the pieces and rebuilt, showing the tenacity of spirit and promise for the city of Biloxi.
The city is home to two major institutions, one being the University of Southern Mississippi. Part of the community since 1910, this doctoral and research-driven community have grown from a small teachers college into a thriving campus of more than 17,000 students. This university also has a heart; the students here have logged in more than 40,000 hours of community service, supporting more than 290 student organizations on campus. Another very prominent school in the area is Tulane University's Mississippi Coast campus. This outreach campus provides distinctive undergraduate and graduate degrees to more than 1,700 students in the area.
One of the city's largest employers is Keesler Air Force Base. Part of the community since World War II, this base draws in nearly 40,000 students and military troops each year. Home to several Air Force Wings, this base has built a strong military community in the heart of Biloxi. If you are a student or serviceman or woman looking for Biloxi apartments, finding a place near Interstates 10 and 100 will get you close to and from the base and schools in the area easily.
Despite the growth in the city and loads of Gulf Coast beauty, the cost of the living in the area is remarkably low. According to information from city-data.com, the median gross rent in the area was $775 per month in 2009 and the current cost of living index in the city is more than 10 points below the U.S. average, making Biloxi a very affordable place to living and raise a family.
The biggest event of the year in Biloxi is definitely their local Mardi Gras celebration. A perfect community event for both young and old, the celebration is called the "Carnival on the Coast" and features a whopping 23 parades to attract more than 450,000 people into the area every year for live music, good ol' Southern soul food, and of course trinkets and beads that are thrown from the various colorful floats.

HDRO Conference Room
18 de mayo 2011
Time: 12:30 – 2:00 pm
Note: The presentation will begin with a screening of the documentary "Voices of Tomorrow: Youth in Cyprus" (17 minutes) which highlights the participatory process that culminated in the launch of the HDR.
The first Human Development Report for Cyprus, entitled "Youth in Cyprus: Aspirations, Lifestyles and Empowerment" was launched in 2009 by UNDP Action for Cooperation and Trust, in cooperation with the University of Nicosia and the Cyprus Social and Economic Research Centre (KADEM). The Report highlights an urgent need to engage and empower Cypriot youth in the process of peace-building and reconciliation. The report was produced as part of a two-year initiative, the Cyprus Youth Dialogue Project, which engaged young people in an island-wide research and dialogue process. How can the report, the youth charter, and the documentary now be used as an advocacy tool for peace-building and reconciliation in Cyprus? There have been many developments and initiatives since the launch of the report and these will be discussed at the presentation.
About the Speaker
Pembe Mentesh is a Programme Analyst at UNDP's peace-building programme in Cyprus – Action for Cooperation and Trust. Since 2006 she has worked on a variety of DEX and civil society partner implemented peace-building initiatives with a focus on youth, media and communications. She moved to Cyprus from Australia where her previous experience includes media, public affairs and project management for local and state government institutions for education and indigenous communities, as well as extensive experience in writing, campaigning and community work. She holds a BA in Communications and is currently completing an MA in Social Inquiry.
The event will take place in the HDRO conference room, on the 12th floor of the FF building, at 304 East 45th Street. For more information, and to organize the pick-up in the lobby in case you do not have a UN pass, please contact email@example.com.

London Session: EURUSD consolidates ahead of the FOMC minutes
- FOMC minutes unlikely to deliver market-changing news
- BOJ – to QE or not to QE?
- Eurozone: more pain for Spain, but yields are moving in the right direction
- GBP strength on Posen comments
In the absence of much economic data to direct markets the euro mostly drifted through the day. The dollar got its groove back towards the European close especially against the single currency. The markets are waiting for the FOMC minutes, and while we don't expect them to include anything market-moving as such, we do think there could be some volatility in the greenback as the market tries to detect some signs that the Fed is about to embark on more QE. If the Fed sounds worried about the economic outlook then we could see a knee jerk reaction lower in risk (higher in the dollar), as markets fret about the state of the US economy. However, the decline could be stemmed as the market prices in the chance of more QE especially after last month's lacklustre payrolls data.
The pound has been the strongest performer out of the majors today. It was given an extra boost by BOE member Adam Posen, a former uber-dove, who said the Bank of England had done enough on QE for now. This has helped to boost the pound's yield differential, especially versus the euro, and EURGBP declined to its lowest level since 2008 today below 0.7875. So how long can this downtrend continue? Although the UK's economy looks weak, the Eurozone's sovereign crisis and the deep recession experienced by the periphery makes the euro a less attractive option than the pound from a fundamental perspective. From a technical perspective this pair is starting to look oversold on both a short and long-term basis, so we may see some consolidation in the short-term, even though the long-term trend is still lower, in our view. Thus, there may be some buying interest in the short term as we head towards 0.7850.
The Eurozone and Spain in particular, dominated headlines this morning. Although PM Rajoy delivered more austerity (his fourth round of spending cuts since getting into power in November), which may weigh on growth, the steps towards reform of public sector pay and of unemployment benefit seemed to be warmly welcomed by the bond market. Spanish bond yields declined 25 bp today to below 6.6%. Interestingly, Spanish bond yields have diverged slightly from the euro, with yields falling (Eurozone +ve), while the euro came under pressure. This is interesting: could the euro start trading independently of credit risk in the region, and instead trade more on the depressing growth outlook and narrowing rate differential? This is one to watch.
Looking ahead, European traders need to prepare for an early announcement tomorrow morning from the BOJ. It concludes its policy meeting tomorrow. It will publish an interim update on its GDP and inflation projections, with the latter being watched closely to see when the Bank forecasts inflation to reach its target 1% CPI rate. The market also expects the BOJ to join the ECB, BOE and PBOC by loosening monetary policy further and boosting its asset purchase programme by another Y10 trillion, bringing the total size of the Asset Purchase Programme to Y 80trillion. This could cause some volatility in USDJPY, however we don't think this will have a major impact on the yen as monetary conditions are already loose and in the current environment - where markets are jittery - USDJPY may remain well bid. Thus, we could see a dip back towards 78.50 in the near term.
Data watch:
Key technical levels: majors
Ones to watch: SPX 500
Both technical and fundamental signs point to further weakness in the SPX 500. There has been a weak start to Q2 earnings season (we need to hear from more companies to get a grip on how bad it has been) but overall, a weak corporate and economic outlook suggest stocks in the US may have a tough time in the coming weeks. Some lead indicators including the small cap Russell index, the Nasdaq and the Dow Jones Transportation Index are all testing some key support levels.
At the close yesterday the SPX was testing 1,340 – the 50-day sma. The index has opened lower today, and a move below this level opens the door to a sharper decline towards 1,300 – the 200-day sma.

Imagine being able to record video live from your cell phone and share it immediately. That's the idea behind the next phase of messaging solutions from Syniverse, called simply Mobile Video Broadcast Service. Essentially, what you can do is use your cell phone to shoot video and send it live to another cell phone, tablet, or even computer. All you need to send the video link is either a cell phone number to send it via text messaging or an e-mail address. You won't need to install any kind of application on a cell phone or computer and you don't need to create a new account, which is how many of the video sharing services currently work.
Additionally, if someone receives the message with the video link and doesn't have time to watch it, that's not a problem. They can still watch it at a later point, only difference it is that the video won't be live. It sounds like a pretty interesting service that's easy to use and it is. Watch the video below to get a better idea of how the service works:
Although, we don't have the feature here in the states, it is available in Korea from Korea Telecom as a service called "Show It."

There's a unique excitement associated with harness racing that's unmatched in any other sport. So when over 40 alumni and friends of St. John's University gathered for a Night at the Racetrack at the Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Saturday, August 14, 2010, everyone knew that they were about to have a memorable time.
Photo Gallery Hosted by the Northern New Jersey Alumni Chapter, the evening featured a barbeque buffet in a private area exclusively for St. John's alumni and their families. Guests enjoyed an up-close view of each race while feasting on a variety of tasty selections as they mingled with other alumni in the park-like setting of the famous racetrack."We have so many alumni in the New Jersey area," said Nicholas A. Legakis '97SVC, '07MPS, Director, Institutional Advancement, Staten Island. "Over the last few years, we've been able to host some great events in different parts of the state to help attract many different alumni. The support has been tremendous!" "This was a perfect summer evening with great friends and tremendous support from the alumni," agreed Andre Emont '79P, '84GP, Northern New Jersey Alumni Chapter Leader. "I'm looking forward to continuing this tradition in the future." While most of those in attendance were from various areas of New Jersey, a number of alumni from Queens and Brooklyn made the trek to the Garden State. They discovered that it was worth the trip. "You couldn't have asked for a better night," said Brooklyn resident Bob Howe '73CBA. "The spot and the company were both great!" Alumni who brought their children to participate in the family nature of the event were happy to see their sons and daughters enjoying themselves, and were looking forward to similar activities in the future. "This is a great venue for the family," remarked Benjamin Chiang '97SVC. "I can't wait for next year." It was a night of food, fun and great harness races, and whether they won or lost, at the end of the evening everyone left the racetrack with fond memories of another special St. John's alumni event. "I probably lost more than I won," exclaimed Natalie Dengler '7Ed, '76MBA, "but the company was great, which is what really matters. You can't put a price on that." For additional information about events of interest to alumni from Northern New Jersey and Staten Island, please call Nicholas A. Legakis '97SVC, '07MPS, Director, Institutional Advancement, Staten Island at (718) 390-4146 or e-mail email@example.com.

Yes it has been discussed before,
"How did Delta take his helmet off if he is grafted in to the suit?"
We know that he should have been grafted into the suit based on Suchong's diaries and the fact that Suchong died before other protector models were made.
But now I have proof that this whole helmet business is a narratological goof.
If Delta took his helmet off then, technically, all of the special ADAM that works as mind control should have come spilling out! The suit is filled with this ADAM to keep the Big Daddies somewhat drone like, and it probably also keeps them alive, gives them extra human strength, etc. Forget "How did Delta have his helmet on when he woke up" and start asking "Who refilled him with ADAM?"
The suits are filled with ADAM, that is what the yellow glow is. The Art Book confirms this.
So, off with the helmet=no ADAM = either
a)dead, and dead for good
b) alive and mind-control free but in a freaky suit
So any thoughts? I am open to being dis-proven.

I recently decided to reinstall OFP and I sometimes get really weird graphics problems. ***Here are two sample screenshots of what happens...you have to paste these links into the address box since it doesn't allow direct linking. ***I'm shocked they don't allow direct linking, because they say they aren't like geocities in regards to image hosting:
It happened to me before but now it does that very often, especially when I'm playing the resistance island. ***Updating video drivers does not fix it...I've changed drivers at least 5 times in my OFP career and it never totally dissapeared. ***I have to alt+tab out of game and alt+tab back into the game to fix it. ***Today it would happen every 30 seconds or so....not too fun having to alt+tab out that often. ***It happens on single player and multiplayer.
It's probably a software related issue because my hardware doesn't have a problem running other games with high detail on. ***If anyone else has encountered this problem, let me know.

I have always loved animals. I have dedicated my whole life to saving them. I am currently in college with a major of marine biology.
I don't know if this is wrong or not,but I have more compassion for animals than I do for humans. :-)
I grew up in Boston Ma, throughout my life I always had pets, like dogs, birds, iguanas and hamsters! I love my pets will all my heart.

Hiya! Mackenzie here. I'm one of the biggest animal lovers you'll ever meet. I'm always trying to do things to help animals and involve myself in getting active for animal rights. I have 4 awesome animal buddies living with me- a dog, cat, ferret, and leopard gecko. Animals are my world, and I live to speak up for them. I don't have too many human friends, as I usually keep to myself and the few I've come attached to, but that doesn't mean I'm not as friendly as can be! Looking good is my thing.. Vegan clothing and cosmetics are always in style! ;)

Hi everyone, here is another Bunkai demo relating to Pinan Nidan / Heian Shodan.
Hope you enjoy watching and it may be of interest.
Kind regards,
Hi Jason,
This is a nice drill, I teach something similar at my classes too.
Apologies for how quiet the video is, wasn't planning to post the clip it was recorded as a reminder for the students of the club.
Hope you like.
I do believe that's Sensei Dave Webster as uke
May I ask, is this from a Shukokai/Shito Ryu perspective?
Relevent application, for strikes only bunkai. Do you have an application for a stand-up grappling version or indeed a groundworking version of the same combination.
thanks for adding this video, osu
Just a quick note to once again voice my support for sharing video like this. I think it really adds value and provides a great resource for our community.
When people post links to their videos, I will come along, in my admin role, and embed them as I've done here. I think that makes the videos easier to view and discuss.
All the best,
Firstly, hi Andy, thank you for the kind comment and great video. I will be sure to give that a bash : )
Hi Tau, indeed it is Mr Webster : )
Hi Ken, these drills are my own and not from Shito Ryu or Shukokai etc, i have indeed stand up grappling, lots of ground Bunkai demos/drills & table defence relating to Kata/Bunkai etc. in the new year i will post some of these on : )
Hi Iain, thank you for your support and embeding the videos, much appreciated : )
Kind regards,
Hi Jason,
Thanks for that and glad you liked then clip.
Again, thanks to Iain for ambedding and allowing everyone the post and share videos on here.
Great videos - i wanted to add content to this thread by adding my own video and interpretation of the Heian Shodan/Pinan Nidan kata also:
I will try not get into detailed responce on peoples own drills etc, as for the most part I applaud such efforts.
2 main things to think about IMO-
1. Gedan Bari Uke- is it really that effective or useful as a strike to the groin, personally I think not and don't use it in that context. Gedan Tsuki or Uchi maybe from a more direct angle to make them bend.
2. The opponent, once you show the 'fixed' format, get into 'semi fixed' asap, it will allow for a more realistic reaction from your partner. The partner needs to move with the Bunkai, otherwise it doesnt 'fit' so well or becomes variable very quickly to keep remotly realistic.
Hi James,
the Gedan-Barai as strike to the groin is extremley effective, i know this from my own personal real life fighting experiences. as for a partner moving with the Bunkai, this is unrealistic and a real life opponent in the street would not do as such.
Kind regards,

Hi Jason, please call me Jim.
Fair enough re your comment on Gedan Barai being an effective groin shot, its not my experience or view but I can accept that.
Why wouldnt the partner move when you hit them? Why wouldnt they try to defend? Why wouldnt they crumple and change positon?
Granted you do mention this re the partner dropping when you hit them in the groin etc, but linking those movements in that way IMO would not be an effective Bunkai, or more accuratly an effective Oyo (application).
Just my opinion granted, be interested in others views.
Hi Jim,
maybe i miss understood what you are trying to say, are you talking in training or real combat? in real combat whatever the situation nothing is guaranteed to work. Your opponent will be struggling and fighting back atall times, so for example in training if one studys arm locks etc, let your training partner go with it at first, then get them to really fight against it then one will see that it may not be as effective.
I worked as a doormen for 2 years, not that long i know, but like i said above i speak from personal experience. of course they would try to defend, but as for the first part of the drill in training, like i said above the partner moves with you so one can demonstrate to the class or for video footage. then drill it with your partner fighting against it.
I hope that answers your questions : )
Kind regards,
Hi Jason,
You had had some practical experience by the sounds of it, which is great.
My point is the bunkai shown for those movements IMO is not practical in the context of leading to decent application ability.
I guess we can agree to disagree and move on! Keep posting stuff, I do enjoy what members put up for sure.
Hi Jim,
the idea of posting Bunkai ideas on the site is to share and show another take on Bunkai, of course not everyone will agree with all the ideas etc. However if one person gets an idea or found another approach to explore Bunkai then job done.
We are all here to help, share and progress whatever the martial art we study. i appreciate everyones comments and views as they are all helpfull for everyone one, keep them coming : )
Kind regards,

That's how I see it. One of the things I really like about this forum and the people it has attracted is the variation in views, and the respectful and intelligent way these differing opinions are discussed.
It would worry me if everyone thought the same as that would mean the discussions would produce very little interesting content. I also like the way we can avoid the "agree with me totally and completely or f### right off!" style of debates so prevalent on other internet forums.
As I've said before I'm really proud to have my name on the top of this forum and the thousands of views everyday means we must be doing something right. Thanks to all for their contributions to this thread and others.
All the best,
Yes fair point if this is a truly open place then we should all post honest critique, and of course support and praise where appropiate.
Let's see if that actually happens or we join the back slapping brigade! LOL
Keep in mind most people wouldn't post a negative comment, it's the way of the web.
Hi Iain, nice message, thankyou for that.
By creating this wounderfull site and the previous one it has brought many martial artist alike together, i think we have all made a new friend/s at some point along the way plus contacts, and of course opened up a whole new world of new ideas surrounding Bunkai and other topics.
So a big thank you to yourself, to all the hard work, & support and a big thankyou to everyone who uses the site and support also. : )
Kind regards,
shoshinkanuk wrote:Keep in mind most people wouldn't post a negative comment, it's the way of the web.
Can I use your internet please? :-) My experience of the web is that most people on the web are very happy to post negative comments. A look at the comments under almost any YouTube video will confirm that. I'm not talking about critique but personal insults, threats (to individuals and their families), unnecessary profanity, etc. Granted we don't have that here, but that's because we've always had a strict position of not tolerating it. Needless negativity has no value. Considered critique is invaluable.
In all the years this board has been running I've never found the people who frequent her to be shy about making their opinions known, but they do tend to do so politely. It would be a pointless endeavour if those with opposing views did not express them and I hope that's something that will always continue here.
All the best,
700 plus views and maybe 4/5 of us have a comment on a Bunkai video uploaded.....................
I agree here and other member vetted and controlled forums it is of course a better enviroment for decent discussion, but Iain people are shy in this enviroment.

Document Title: Lightning (DI00326) Photo by Carlye Calvin Description: Spectacular, powerful, and sometimes deadly, lightning is one of the most common weather phenomena. It has been estimated that lightning strikes the earth about 100 times every second. Lightning is generated in cumulonimbus clouds, which have a negative electrical charge at the base and a positive charge at cloud top. Scientists are not yet certain how clouds get these charges, although they know that the charges are carried by water droplets and ice crystals.
