1984: A NovelView our feature on George Orwell's 1984. Written in 1948, 1984 was George Orwell's chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, Orwell's narrative is timelier than ever. 1984 presents a startling and haunting vision of the world, so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the power of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of multiple generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions--a legacy that seems only to grow with the passage of time. |

Frankie Lymon
Frankie Lymon
Frankie Lymon (1942-1968) and the Teenagers were a New York doo wop group consisting of Joe Negroni, Herman Santiago, Jimmy Merchant, and Sherman Garnes, but centered around the extraordinary talents of their lead singer, 13-year-old Frankie Lymon. Lymon was credited with their first big hit, "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" (in the early '90s, a federal judge ruled after a lengthy trial that Lymon hadn't written "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" -- another member of the Teenagers had). His wise-beyond-his-years vocal and performing abilities not only made the Teenagers a group several notches above the competition but made Lymon the first black teenage pop star. Though only together for a brief 18-month period, Lymon & the Teenagers exerted an enormous influence, spawning several "kid" vocal groups and providing initial inspiration to Berry Gordy to model his entire Motown production approach around Lymon's original vocal style. Inexplicably, the group split into two factions at the height of their success, and neither had a hit again. Lymon died from a drug overdose at age 26. Diana Ross, Smokey Robinson, Len Barry, and his principal prot�g�, Michael Jackson (whose early recordings with the Jackson 5 are virtual re-creations of the early Lymon sound, merely updated) all show the influence of Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers' groundbreaking work. ~ Cub Koda, Rovi

The Museum of Everything founder James Brett and collector Martina Batan at The Museum of Everything
The Outsider Art Fair kicked off its 20th anniversary exhibition at 7 West 34th Street in New York last night. Collectors, curators, critics and artists filled the aisles and booths of some 40 galleries, art centers, and publications from around the world that are participating in this year's fair.A+ was there to view the colorful works by self-taught artists that animated the booths—everyone from Bill Traylor, Henry Darger, Martin Ramirez, Joseph Yoakum, and Purvis Young to Swoon, Prophet Royal Robertson, Fort Guerin, William Scott, and Penny Rockwell—and to toast the fair's triumphant moment. See more pictures from opening night after the jump.

"I Am BioLogos"
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
"It's tempting to think that the church needs to decide quickly which of these [original sin] scenarios is right, and which ones must be wrong. I believe the church is better served by taking its time, holding several different scenarios in tension for a while as we think through the implications of each."
Today we draw your attention to a couple of short term projects that have been completed and are now visible on our site: Our History and Small Group Resources.
There is no formula for generating beliefs in people. There are plenty of people with access to the same facts who end up believing different things. But for many Christians—like the ones I heard from this week—access to information about the position we call "evolutionary creation" could make a significant difference for reconciling science and Christian faith.
In this series, James Kidder provides an intriguing study on transitional fossils and the evolutionary history of modern humans. He begins by discussing the fossil record, explaining how new forms are classified. He then explains the physically distinguishing trait of humankind—bipedalism. From the discovery of Ardipithecus, the earliest known hominin, to the australopithecines, the most prolific hominin, Kidder focuses on the discovery, the anatomy, and the interpretation of these ancestral remains.
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
With From the Dust, it was our goal to help Christians see the complexity of the issues raised by modern science, as well as help them to courageously engage with the theological conversations happening within the sphere of Christian culture today.
We're pleased to introduce the first official commercials for BioLogos, produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and featuring BioLogos vice president Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright.
Last month, we announced the 37 grantees from our Evolution & Christian Faith program! This month, we take a closer look at the projects and what's "in the pipeline" over the coming years from these grantees!
There's a word beneath the water, and the Bow River belongs to God. Have you been listening?
Christian theology asserts that humans are spiritual creatures, a unity of body and spirit or "soul," integrated, not reducible downwards to mere matter or upwards to mere spirit.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
With great pleasure, the Board of Directors of The BioLogos Foundation announces the appointment of Deborah Haarsma to become our next President, and of Jeffrey Schloss to the role of Senior Scholar. Professor Haarsma assumes leadership from our outgoing President Darrel Falk, to whom we owe a tremendous debt of gratitude.
My goal in leading this organization for these past three and a half years has been to lay the groundwork to help my fellow evangelicals see that the conflict between our faith and mainstream science is not as great as they thought it was. In the process, my thinking has been significantly shaped by listening to people who think differently than I do
Part of BioLogos mission is to show how all things hold together in Christ—to show how a Christian worldview integrates the knowledge we have of God through the Scriptures with the knowledge we have of God through the other areas in which He reveals himself as Creator and Redeemer.
Throughout my various conversations with fellow believers, the most-mentioned anxiety over accepting an evolutionary creationist paradigm is the fear of losing the Bible as one's spiritual anchor and source of authority.
How do we give our visitors access to our vast archive of resources, and how do we make sure they are finding the resources that address their most pressing questions?

The Hermitage Inn
Online Reservations
I've been to dinner at the Hermitage Inn in Dover, Vermont several times in the past but this was one of the most memorable. The chicken, andouille and shrimp gumbo was spicy and excellent in a rich broth. The seafood stew contained lots of fresh fish in a light saffron tomato broth all served over homemade fettucini. The saffron garlic aioli crostini was the perfect accompaniment and ready made for dipping. The sommelier helped us pick a spanish Laxas Albariño to complement the meal. For dessert try the rum raisin bread pudding. The maple walnut ice cream was one of the best I have ever eaten. The service was attentive and professional. In short, an amazing meal in a relaxing country inn setting.
The Hermitage Inn had much New England charm in its tastefully subdued dining room. The wait staff was cordial and efficient. The Island Creek oysters on the half shell and the salmon entree with asparagus, potato and mushrooms were very good and served with an elegant yet understated presentation. The maple walnut ice cream was a treat. My only wish was that more bread had been served to take advantage of the very creamy and soft churned butter; one slice of bread was a little too parsimonious.
We are all so glad to have this place so near our home. Whenever we want to treat ourselves to an outstanding meal this is the place we go. The staff are just a wonderful as the food, and the dining rooms are luxurious, yet comfortable. See you there!
A real gem. Wonderful setting, great service and outstanding food. Clearly the best restaurant we have dined in in VT.
Never hesitate to drop in here, always beautiful and great and folks there year round!
The Hermitage is the quintessential New England inn with every comfort, beautiful gardens with spectacular views and a lovely restaurant. There's formal dining and a less formal pub with a beautiful veranda for dining al fresco or sitting around a campfire in the evening. The service is impeccable - any need is anticipated and all questions responded to promptly by a young, friendly staff.
The room is elegant, the food was quite good, with fresh ingredients. I was disapponted that a poached lobster on rissoto came without rissoto; when I told our server, he said they weren't doing it with rissoto. I told him that's what the menu said, he laughed and said rissoto should have been in quotes, which made no sense to me. Grudgingly, he did take it back to the kitchen and returned with some fettucine, but the fettucini was bland. Fortunately, when i told the hostess, she was very apologetic, and ended up giving me a partial credit on my bill, and otherwise, the food and service were great, with a very good and reasonably priced winelist, but this problem with my dish is not something that should happen in a high class restaurant..
The place was great. Went with friends after proposing to my now Fiancée and the staff was awesome and treated us right. Great food and awesome wine list.
My daughters and I ateThanksgiving dinner at the Hermitage, a meal that rarely shows off the chef's skills. The butternut squash bisque was the highlight of the meal: delicate flavor and beautifully presented. The second course, the arugula salad was very good. Too often arugula is bitter but this had a lovely nutty flavor. I do not recall the dressing but it was flavorful without being overwhelming . The dinner was okay. Turkey is turkey. The whipped sweet potatoes were the best part of the dinner. The gravy had a very subtle peppery flavor. The dessert was okay but it did not go beyond that. The meal was traditional but we would have enjoyed a meal that highlighted the chef's abilities more.
The Hermitage is a beautiful Inn with excellent service and well prepared food. The views were spectacular on a snowy Sunday morning. Love their bloody marys. My only complaint was that their website said the brunch was one price but when we arrived the price for brunch was almost 20% more. A little expensive for what you received.

Okay, I'm not sure why you're nit-picking my post. My point was about the GTX 590 and onwards, not the preceding generations. Their only purpose was to build up a case. But I thought I'd respond anyway. Well, it's my comparison, so yes, in fact.. I do get to choose. Define "marginally". It was no more than a 2% overclock on an "OC" edition card that typically adds 10$ to the stock price. Except this time, it was 200$.. which is why an XTX was a good way to tell whether someone was a hardware enthusiast or not. You can quote links all you like - the MSRP wasn't correct in the 7800 GTX 512's case. Thanks for the history lesson, but I was alive in 2007, as well. Yes, I did. I didn't have room for the HD 5970, because the HD 5000 series was more of an inbetween than a rival, since the GTX 200 series was GPU-for-GPU for powerful and the GTX 400 series was late. Yes, HD 7970 started at 550$, but when GTX 680 came out the price dropped to 500$.. which is what counts. (I can accept "tend to be cyclic", but "tend to cyclic" simply doesn't sound right.) Yes, they tend to be. Yes, it is a general rule. That is precisely the issue. You're missing the point with your lax generalizations. The only reason graphics cards won't cost 2,000$ is because the international over-arching consumer hyperbole of demand cannot extend that far. At a certain point, raising a price on a product with a hard-demand inclination does lower its demand, and no one is going to pay 2,000$ for a graphics card. This does not mean that we're not already in deep shit. 1,000$ for a graphics card that would have cost 500$ 3 years ago, is ridiculous. The cycle has clearly changed. You're making my point for me. Yes, prices have been going up for some time now. This is bad. Yes, a company that priced its cards at 2,500$ could not compete and now no longer exists. Miracles do occur. And ATi's All-in-Wonder cards are also extinct.
It's not insulting or generalizations. It's called exaggeration because everyone is complaining about pricing of a product that is obviously going to be overpriced. If you want to analyze this from a economic/financial stand point. Top 3 reasons this product will be priced high: Low Volume: manufacturing involves fixed cost + variable cost so economy of scales great vary cost per unit produced. The higher the volume the less the fixed cost have an effect on each unit. Cost Push: due to low volume, complexity, bleeding edge tech requirements, and very limited # of facilities that can actually produce this. The cost per chip will be higher not because of anything besides a lack of options. That cost will be passed onto the customer Small market: demand is very low for this product, even in this forum there's only a handful that will actually think about buying it. Even a smaller amount will actually buy it. Let's talk about why initial pricing doesn't matter because of equilibrium and substitute goods. If price is higher than equilibrium then consumers won't buy or buy less of it. There will be a surplus. Since this is low volume then # of unsold units will have a higher % impact than a high volume product. You will bet that retailers/eseller/oem will cut orders and it will look drastic since a store would only order 20 and they cut it to 5, it will look like a 75% drop in demand. That kind of %s will raise eyebrows of statisticians at NVIDIA immediately. They will adjust prices accordingly almost immediately. Why? NVIDIA doesn't want fire sales and stacks of their flag ship cards in all stores and tarnish their "superior goods" image. Second, you have many options for substitute goods. NVIDIA has substitute goods themselves such as SLI of several different products that can match or exceed the same performance by this card. You also have choices of AMD cards and their CF. Then you also have consoles and their coming next gen launch. Conclusion: they can price it whatever they want but it won't matter so stop complaining. It's not like they're the only one making graphics chips and consumers have no choice.
Ah, I see. Cherry picking a time range using cherry picked parameters that don't bear any relationship to the vendors actual card hierarchy using your own personal pricing conventions that bear little in common with reality- an argument you're bound to win ...An example: You mean like this one: ...a bargain considering nVIDIA's current pricing for the 7800GTX 512MB of $699USD Or this, or this, or this, or this, or this... Feel free to post some proof that the 7800GTX 512MB was selling below MSRP If we're cherry picking- or to use your rationale "Well, it's my comparison, so yes, in fact.. I do get to choose", here's another taking into account limited production run cards for the uber-enthusiast: 6800 Ultra Extreme 512MB...$899 7800 GTX Black Pearl....$999 8800 Ultra Leviathan...$899 HD 5970 4GB...$1000-1199 Asus Mars....$1500 Asus Ares......$1000 Asus Mars II...$1499 HD 7970 6GB...$700 HD 7990......$799-899 Asus Ares II...$1699 GTX 690......$1000 GTX Titan....$1000
ahhhh.....i think nvidia means to say they're launching the GTX 770 this summer??? or was the titan just a 680ti???
Are you for real..? So, I disagree with you about the price of the 7800 GTX 512 and HD 7970, both of which have no bearing on my overall summation in any way, and that's all you want to talk about? It's like saying "I think we should feed starving children in Africa" and someone getting pissed off at you, completely forgetting your point, because "they're technically toddlers, not children." Listen, if you ever fill out that prescription, drop me a line, alright?
Hell no. The fact that you can't accept that you got called out for quoting cherry picked- and some obviously false price points to bolster your argument. I provided relevant links to educate and forestall any unsubstantiated claims. As for what I wanted to talk about- how about a whole babble of hyperbole that stems from your first post: And, no, it does not. EVERY time an expensive limited production hardware arrives, some knee-jerk reactionaries seem unable to stop themselves from donning the "The End is Nigh" sandwich board. For someone so concerned about conciseness and relevancy in posting, I'd also note that you were quite happy to wander (way) off topic and make some deal over an obvious typo: Anyhow I done. Feel free to call my attention to the pricing of the GTX 780 if it retails anywhere close to $2000.
Sorry, Hammer.. but I can't let such pretentiousness continue. Feel free to delete our posts if you see fit. Lol. Don't you just love it when you can tell the egomaniacs by their over-used vocabulary? You chose to completely divert the attention from the topic at hand because you *gasp* took issue with 2 (out of the 20) numbers I put up. Well, congratulations. You were right! The 7800 GTX 512 did retail for 650$. Would you like that (1) internet now or after you've finished gratifying yourself at the thundering roar of your own awesomeness? Generalizing me into a pool of people you don't respect does not denote that you're right. The fact is, your broad understatement of the situation only trivializes a very important issue. Yes, USUALLY price increases don't last, but USUALLY they are the cause of a lack of competition, which is entirely understandable (i.e. 8800 Ultra).. But now we have a precedent. Both companies are heightening their prices of competing products. It's no different than price fixing, except that it is not intentional and thus not illegal. It does, however, suck majorly for the consumer. Why does it matter?! 1,000$ is too much!
I'm not saying your wrong so don't go getting defensive, you're pandering to the wrong person. I'm just saying if you have a point, you can make it without insulting people and making insulting generalizations about people. Keep your posts mature and thoughtful and I typically won't have a problem with them. There is a reason why a mod deleted the post, and I'm sure it's not because of your stance on this issue. You're asking for an infraction. When a moderator asks you to do something (or not to do something) on the forum, it's usually unwise to disobey them in public as opposed to messaging him or her in private.
Which is not private. Read the rules, please. http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/announcement.php?f=14
It took all your cut-and-paste-wordy-ness of a bunch of who' knows of their credibility reviews to supposedly make your point. I'm not contesting the pricing of the Titian, a Halo card is whatever... I went by the W1zzard, and a 2560x the minimum resolution anyone would think of buying something like that for. I wish W1zzard would've average out his 5760x1080 results. I do understand your "other possible workload the cards' user base might employ... intended market for the card" for Titian, and in that realm it's a no-brainer against dedicated workstation hardware. Although, does Nvidia propagandize this gelding it as such, it will chiefly tested for gaming. Sure it's a part of the claim, but truly a small foundation of the marketing, and we what to see how a 13 SMX (14% less) provides against the 7970 architecture. I'm not against the Nvidia design or performance, just their Green Team Marketing that continues to live off the "G92 Glory Years". I am a fan of the GTX670 the best card Nvidia has produce in many moon's; a nice reference design is a great purchase when it can be had for $320. I also like the GTX650Ti, but really only a sensible buy when you can find say a MSI PE for $130 and add a little oomph. Titian is having it's time on the mount as well it should, however the "Runt of Titian"… sorry it doesn't appear to have any "trickle-down" affect, not unless Nvidia surprises with a $600 price point.
Starting public drama is HumanSmoke modus operandi with anything Nvidia. Even when you point out hes wrong he switches to something else to point out hes right all along You have my sympathy Jacez and welcome to Techpowerup. Get used to him...
I'm on Nvidia for years now, because the equivalent Radeon cards are hotter running, noisier and more power hungry. But the real deal-killers are the perennially buggy drivers and software supplied by AMD. CCC is a joke, I've never seen a program that crashed so often and for no apparent reason (several versions/cards). For this reason alone, I avoid ATI/AMD like the plague. If you make your choice because of a few lousy dollars saved, my advice is save up for an extra week or two and always buy Nvidia.
nVidia was pretty bad with power consumption and heat prior to the GTX 600 series cards. The GTX 500 and 400 series loved to eat power. I've had more issues with nVidia drivers than I have had with AMD drivers. AMD has also never fried any of my hardware. I have a GeForce 8600 GTS that fried the DDC on one of my displays at work. I also don't need to update my drivers for my AMD cards nearly as often as I did with nVidia, so its a double edged sword. My experiences with AMD have been pretty good. I've never had CCC crash on me and drivers will fail very rarely and when it does it's usually related to my overclock and running crossfire at the same time, not my drivers. So all in all, I'm sorry that you've had a bad experience but I haven't experienced what you have with AMD, and I think it is worse that nVidia damages hardware rather than just crashing. So yeah, even if my AMD video cards did crash a couple times, I would prefer that to my nVidia card bricking a display. It also wouldn't be the first time that I had a nVidia card that didn't work right. --- With all of this said though, this thread isn't a Red vs Green thread so we should stop this argument right here. If you really want to continue it then I think it calls for a new thread or a PM war, but I won't be arguing the point beyond this post.
Hella! That's the first price that popped into my head with the obscene pricing NVIDIA has been doing lately. :shadedshu
My sediments exactly, that might have been the case with AMD before the RV770 (4870) since then not true, and when you look at Keplers under actual gaming load it's not that noteworthy, better but super outlandish. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/01/08/asus_geforce_gtx_670_directcu_ii_4gb_gpu_review/9
I think W1zzard has commented before that it is because of the relative lack of cards for comparison at that resolution- 5760x1080 only recently being added to the benchmarks. If you're wanting a graphic boiled down to a single number, you'll have to keep a few bookmarks handy - a comparison of sites also throws up a wider range of games/apps, and driver issues, which are more prevalent with multi-monitor gaming. Aside from TPU, Anandtech, Hardware Canucks, ComputerBase, Alienbabeltech, Sweclockers, HardwareLUXX, Hardware.info, bit-tech, OCC, Tom's Hardware and HiTech Legion also benched at 5760x1080. HardwareLUXX also benched a fairly gruelling 5760x1080 using sparse grid super sampling (SGSSAA). And both you and I are part of the explanation. Look at the sheer number of forum threads, arguments, and postings in mainstream tech sites whose bread and butter is gaming orientated hardware concerning the Titan. The PR value Nvidia has reaped from the Titan far outweighs any profit from the cards themselves. If they sell 10,000 cards and make $500 off each one (doubtful unless yields are spectacular), that nets them $5m. PR and the halo effect probably outweigh the monetary return. How much discussion takes place regarding Quadro and Tesla cards in comparison on tech sites ? Virtually nil in comparison- pro users generally have a more concise idea of their needs -and they certainly aren't the same tyre-kickers and flamers that frequent mainstream forums commenting on hardware they will never own. Pro graphics/math co-processors don't really need PR -just a solid support base and a given feature set. A pro user isn't going to be debating the cards merits on gaming forums- they're more likely to fire of an email to Boxxtech, Amax, HP, or whomever their last contract was with ( The user can configure workstations using Tesla, Quadro or GeForce in a lot of instances) Even with minimal "conventional PR", Nvidia are going to sell a hell of lot more pro boards than GeForce branded ones. Leaving aside every Tesla K20 upgrade from 2050/2070/2090, OEM workstation sales, probable Quadro sales, and whatever number of boardsPiz Daint will require, the count already stands at ~22000 ( ORNL's Titan,NCSA's Blue Waters, and CSCS's Todi).
as my freind told me :"you buy amd if you want power, and nvidia if you want stability." After running an AMD laptop for a year now....he was right. AMD may be more powerful, but the constant driver issues and buggy performance (dont get me started on AMD's linux performance) drove me to nvidia. now, everything just works.
Really? I've had good experience with nVidia's Windows drivers but nVidia's dual-monitor support for linux is horrid which is what turned me off. fglrx and radeon drivers do multi-monitor out of the box just fine and lately fglrx has been working great on all the AMD GPUs I have, which is a pleasant surprise.
I think it might depend on the program. although, i had the exact opposite issue with nvidia and amd. FGLRX runs fine with ubuntu, but not other distros, like mint (personal favorite). never had an issue with nvidia and dual monitor in linux though. not quite sure why. FWIW: minecraft will NOT run with fglrx without massive amounts of tweaking to get it to stop crashing.
