What my Father Taught Me
Three and a half years ago my father was in a hospital undergoing a grueling cycle blood tests, poking and prodding, infections, antibiotic treatments, recovery, more poking and prodding, reinfection, and more tests. He weaved in and out of consciousness and once even called out for his brother who had died some twenty years earlier. His personality would quickly disappear and then suddenly return again. He had fragmented into pieces, some of which I recognized, most of which I did not.
In just three weeks he dropped to ninety pounds, just half his regular body weight. The man I used to blame for the bulk of my personality flaws was rapidly regressing to a vulnerable, childlike state. I was suddenly caring for him in ways I never thought I would--feeding him, helping a nurse give him a sponge bath, holding him up when he cried and could no longer stand on his own, and eventually giving him regular doses of liquid morphine during his last few days to help alleviate what I imagine was excruciating pain.
Very late that last night, his breathing pattern had changed significantly, which we knew from the hospice literature meant that he was about to leave us. He'd been completely unconscious for the previous two days, and while his body had functioned in a mechanical sense, there was little to no sign of life underneath it all. He was there but he wasn't there. For the previous two days his breathing had the perfunctory quality of a respirator machine. He was still my father yet it felt as if my "real" father had already left and his body just had to catch up, like he and his body were slightly out of sync.
Being there by his side as he took his last few breaths was one of the most important things I've ever done. He co-created me and was there just after I was born, and I got to be there with him just as he was ready to die. He raised me and taught me how to ride a bike and wash a car and how to make my work environment as comfortable as possible so I could work more efficiently. He taught me things he hadn't intended to teach me, like how to be patient (as he often was not) and the importance of not jumping to conclusions too quickly (as he often did).
The process of caring for my father transformed my selfish, habitual anger towards him into a desire to alleviate his suffering and make him as comfortable as possible. In just a few days I'd managed to accomplish what many years of therapy could not--I was able to forgive him for all of those things I'd spent years blaming him for and resenting and whining about. All of the blame and anger I'd attributed to his inadequate parenting quickly unraveled when I revisited it from this very different perspective.
I used to blame my father for my inability to be fully intimate with other people and through his death I learned how to cut through that. Whenever I sense some sort of block between me and someone else, whenever I feel anger or hostility or insecurity in relation to other people, I bring to mind an image of that person as an infant and an image of them at the moment of their death. All of the stuff that happens in between shouldn't be confused with the underlying reality that binds us all together.
Most of us have very complicated relationships with our parents and I'm not claiming that their influence and behavior towards us during our formative years doesn't have any sort of impact. Of course it does. I am saying that what we do with the circumstances and conditions of our lives is our choice, regardless of who or what contributed to their creation. All we can do is to work with whatever we're given and wherever we are at any given moment. We can choose not to let those things fester and turn into sources of self-pity and blame, or we can use those same things as an excuse to engage in destructive behavior and to build walls around our hearts.
It's up to us.
To use our wounds as some sort of protective armor is to be fearful and weak. It's when we recognize the transformative ability of our pain and those feelings of loss that we're being courageous enough to step outside of ourselves and our inner psycho-dramas long enough to be of service to someone else.
In the end my father left me with a huge gift: the realization that this life of ours is temporary, tenuous, and precious. There is something there before we are born and something there after we die, and we'd be wise to spend at least a portion of our lives getting acquainted with what that is.
Thanks, Dad.

I had a similar experience with my mother. Before I was two years old my 25 year old dad died leaving mom and me fend for ourselves. Mom was selfish, narcissistic and at times abusive to me. When she lay dying years later at the age of 68,I saw a person, another human being, not the mother I wanted but just a woman who herself had no doubt been battered by life and didn't have the resources with which to cope. Unlike you I didn't so much feel warm and close to her even at her deathbed but I felt compassion and forgiveness. Little did I know then, that even more than therapy I was finally free of all the rage. What I never got and still haven't found, is the feeling that I was loved by my mother. There's still work to be done...written by Rick O
ReplyDelete Thank you for posting this today, Lawrence. It evokes the evolution of my own feelings for my father and the time that I spent with him when he was dying. I feel so much gratitude for what he gave me - including the opportunity to grow through our tough years as father and gay teenage son.

The purpose of granular ferric oxide is to inhibit algae growth by removing phosphates from the aquarium. Maintaining low phosphate levels will help prevent algae outbreaks and control growth. Serious algae outbreak is one of the most common reasons for complete tank shutdown. GFO is an essential tool and should be part of regular tank maintenance
Granular ferric oxide comes in two different types.
Granular GFO - requires the least amount of flow to tumble. Good for reactors.
High Capacity GFO -twice as dense as Granular or Pelletized GFO. This means twice as much material will fit into a reactor. It's extremely hard and has less dust. By volume High Capacity GFO will remove roughly twice the phosphate compared to Granular or Pelletized GFO. Best overall performance.

NANOBODIES of several kinds (purple) could descend on a cancerous cell (blue-green). Some nanobodies might be designed to attach to receptors on the cell, preventing pro-growth signals (orange) from reaching the cell. Other nanobodies could deliver radioactive payloads (clublike appendages) to cancer-specific targets.

Nanobodies Against Cancer
Anatomy of an Antibody
Like many biotech companies, Ablynx emerged from the confluence of a serendipitous discovery, an open window of opportunity and an unreasonable ambition. Housed on two floors in a nondescript gray laboratory on a technology campus outside the university town of Ghent, Belgium, the three-year-old company employs just 45 people, 33 of them scientists and bioengineers. It is a minimal staff with a simply stated mission: find the tiniest sliver of protein that will do the job of a full-size antibody, then turn it into a billion-dollar medicine--or better yet, into the first of a whole new class of "nanobody" drugs against cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, perhaps even Alzheimer's disease.
Despite being backed by $40 million of venture capital and partnerships with Genencor, Procter & Gamble and the National Research Council of Canada, Ablynx faces long odds. Its ambitious goal might seem altogether futile were it not for the recent surge in antibody therapies, the problems that still nag these sophisticated drugs, and the insights that Ablynx scientists have into the peculiar biology of the camel family.

I was looking for a wedding band that was simple yet unique. I looked at many rings and kept coming back to this one. Other reviewers helped me decide to order it because some of them had larger hands/fingers like me and also liked the vintage look of this ring. When the ring came, I was not disappointed. Another reviewer or two had said that the diamonds were tiny and that is true, they are basically chips but I didn't care about that. They do add some sparkle, which is nice but it's the over all design of the ring that attracted me and makes me happy to wear it. I've only been wearing it a few weeks and have gotten compliments on it but the most important thing is that every time I look at it, I still love it. I was concerned it would be too narrow for me and I would like it if it were a bit wider. Plus, I like the two band look so I've considered getting a plain band to go with it or two plain bands to book end it but the way this band is domed makes finding a ring that works with it more of a challenge. I've almost decided against putting anything with it. I can't really comment on the quality since I haven't had it long but it looks sturdy and well made. I'm very happy with my purchase! If someone wanted to pair it with a solitaire engagement ring, it would probably look very pretty especially if the setting of the solitaire had an art deco or vintage look.
Excellent product and great service from overstock.com
Ring is beautiful. Better in person than in the picture. Diamonds are small, but I knew that when purchasing, Many compliments on the ring. Purchased as a replacement wedding band. Fancier than the plain band I had. Design stays on the top of the hand and rarely slides under. Ring is comfortable to wear and has a nice shine and sparkle. My fingers are short and it still looks beautiful on my hand.
The diamonds on this ring are very small. Don't buy it for the diamonds. They do add sparkle which is exactly what I was looking for. This is a comfortable band to wear every day.
I am very happy with this beautiful wedding band! I received many complements on its vintage look. It complements my engagement ring beautifully. I would highly reccomend this ring and site to all my friends and family :)

These keep you from scratching your rims but after a while the plastic breaks and splits. A piece of the plastic broke off inside my tire and popped the tube. They definitely make it more difficult to change a tire. If your careful and take your time its worth a shot though.

Gotta ask Shaq why the Celtics try to trade the "best PG in the NBA"!
Gotta ask Shaq why the Celtics try to trade the "best PG in the NBA"!
It's time to change it up in Boston.
The Celtics are a sinking ship. Time for them to unload before they hit bottom.
I hope the Pacers get in on this. We really need a pg with vision and what he brings to the game on defense. Our pg play is the main weakness Rondo would really improve our team.
But I doubt we have the pieces to make it work.
Do they know something everyone else doesn't? I'm no Rondo fan but the guy is talented and the best player on his team. Wouldn't they want to add talent around him?
They are trading him because he is the only valuable asset they have. Ainge is rebuilding trading Rondo for a haul of young cheap assets alnog with Allen and KG coming off the books this off season the team will be in great shape rebuilding wise.
Rondo's a winner he may clash with his teammates at times but so do most guys. Look at Shaq and Kobe. Rondo is no different than KG they both really want to win and wear their emotion on their sleeves I would have no issue with him. Most players want to win and that is where the bicking comes in.
They realize you aren't gonna win a title and probably not even make the playoffs with how old and bad Boston has played smart move by Ainge IMO.
Utah is a pg away from being a really great team. I expect them to try hard to get him they have the pieces as well.
Ohhh I see. He does seem like a doucher.
Rondo is an asshole. The attitude thing about high-maintenance I can believe. At the same time though...don't be surprised if they don't get rid of him.
The Celtics are trying to trade him while his stock is high. Not only is he a little girl and complains too damn much... I think the Celtics fear that once the big 3 is blown up after this season is over, Rondo might struggle next season and that will lower his stock. A lot of people believe, my self included, that Rondo plays better because of the system he's in and the players he has around him. Maybe the Celtics agree with that a little and want to trade him now. Well they've wanted to trade him for months now... but with the trade deadline nearing, I can see why they'd be pushing.
Plus.. let's look at this hypothetically. Rondo is 26 years old and believed to be a top 5 PG by many. Deron Williams is 27 and believed to be the 3rd best PG by many. RW is considered to be the 4th, maybe 5th by a lot of people. Do you think the Celtics would aggressively be trying to trade either of those 2 players because they don't want to build around them? Fuck no. So there's definitely something there with Rondo
but I'm gonna laugh if every deal gets rejected or falls through and the Celtics start saying "We love Rondo. We were just exploring our options and we really do want him back."
watson for rondo....he can come off the bench behind the point god rose
Scalabrine for Rondo and first round picks.
For a guy who has zilch in terms of scoring ability, Rondo sure is high maintenance. I definitely think he's going to be moved. Even though it's seemed like Golden State has gotten a lot of chatter, I really only see him moving to a team that could use an upgrade at point guard.
What about this deal? Have Dallas include their first-rounder, I think it'd work for both sides. Boston gets some cap relief, a young prospect and a draft pick. Think of it as a way for them to remain competative this year, yet get a jump start on rebuilding. Dallas gets a point guard for their future in Rondo and another building block for a high priced player to come their way in the offseason.
Twitter: @nameinallcapsInstagram: @nameinallcaps
nah...dallas is about to land dwill and dwight
But if they can land Rondo, who costs about six and a half million per season less and still land Howard, who's on his preferred destination list, you have to think they'd at least persue it. Besides, Rondo's stock has never been higher, and if Boston is going to start losing their core players, you have to figure it's only going to drop when the talent around him does as well. Dealing him to a team willing to give up something substantial for him now and still remain competative would be in Boston's best interest.

I hope that all of the questions to me have been answered, if not, the re-post and I will answer them.

Last comment for the night...Mglg and BCLE rocks!!
BCLE is the sleeper.
Positions - BCLE OCNF GSAE - Disclosure. Do your own Due Diligence.
Well Everyone,
I will break out my popcorn, soda, and comfortable chair for Monday. I am looking forward to some fun.
I wish I had more funds for OCNF long . . . I have some coming but will not be able to get my hands on it till . . . end of month...<sigh>
I think BCLE and BEHL are both simply waiting to awaken. Both companies have something to sell (actual product) and that is always a plus in pinksheet land.
Saw the movie "Grand Torino" this weekend . . . Highly recommended
starting to get excited about tomorrow and will be watching BEHL out of the corner of my eye. I think this will push towards .0045
nice info on the work of the MMs on MGLG . . . I was just thrown by the volume and thought price should have gone up more. But if you say you examined and everything looked fair. I'm with you. I also was thinking that keeping the price stable (instead of a spike) creates a very very strong support level of .0019 to .0020
I don't think it will spike now....that is a good thing about there being so many shares. On Friday there was 1.7 BILLION shares traded. That is a bunch in anybody's book.
If it had a smaller float then it would have looked much different.
MGLG is still a good buy-in in my opinion. If I didn't have any, I wouldn't be dragging my heels!
BCLE is at a great price to buy in before it moves also IMO.

FOR THE RECORD.... i came upon this thread just last week after reading a post from billhart22 on the sirius thread. i liked what i saw. i did my DUE DILLIGENCE and pulled the trigger on 3 pennys that were being discussed here, MGLG, BEHL , and BCLE. i gave credit to bill because it was because of him i came here. BUT according to bill ALL THE CREDIT FOR MGLG SHOULD BE GIVEN TO DR.SHOTS apparently he was the one who first put mglg on this thread....ty dr shots. this is also my first foray into pennys(if you dont consider SIRI a penny). i am learning alot from these guys and also from my heavy research on the web. i am posting MY OPINIONS and whatever else i can do to contribute to this thread. i am not an expert, by the grace of God , i happened to time MGLG perfect. so i dont want to take any credit for it but hopefully u guys can appreciate any of my opinions. i have more to say today but between online poker and compiling thoughts for here, its not easy. but i will post some more today...ty and gl
Your opinions are very valuable.
I cannot wait for tomorrow.....primarily for MGLG. BCLE and BEHL will be interesting to watch also.
It is going to be a MGLG day for sure!
I wish that I had more money transferred, because I would throw it into MGLG
Oh well, I have plenty now, but I personally would like to put more in.
How did the poker go today? I hope that you won the big dollars.

I wonder what feels worse...napalm or jalapeno juice after you scratch...I've had one and it does not feel very good!!!
Hoping for more dry powder to clear into account. Would love to join you and your band of heathens that have driven the price up on me! If I were you, I think I would list some dummy stocks for me to invest in so I don't drive the price down when I invest. Hell...my investment strategy is working well so far...started with 10k...down to $62.50 perfect.
Talk to you later this evening!
Jeff, you crack me up all of the time!
At least you are consistant
"The band of heathens".....I like that. It sounds like a biker club. I'll have to get a "13" tattooed on my arm and a couple of skulls.
You are the man!
I had to take some of you emoticons out so I could put some in. I sincerely hope that it didn't interfere with the effectiveness of your post. lol

ok so i gave my interpretation of the MGLG charts on post #325.. a concern of mine is - i dont want people copying my risk factor because "i was right this week" or for w/e reasons. DYODD cant stress that enuff. ok with all that out the way. i am confused on my own exit strategy. i am waking up early tomorrow and i am gonna be staring at level 2 all day. i use power etrade pro, so news releases pop up immediately. if this gaps up on the open , imo it will have to consolidate at some point, maybe i can sell a portion when i feel a high is reached then buyback on a retrace. without a gap up , i dont see it dropping off the open because it closed on a high of the day(especially it was a weekend). if people wanted out they would have done so friday. if i sell a small position, i will continue to maintain a core position and daytrade an overcore. MY STRATEGY CAN CHANGE IN AN INSTANT. but if it does , i will post updates and ask for opinions on my moves. its gonna be WILD TOMORROW imo.
somebody here asked about new picks, well theres a general consensus on BCLE, a few of us seem to agree that is the next sleeper. there hasnt been much discussion on it because mglg has been flaming hot this week. so once mglg cools down BCLE chat will build up im sure, great buy in opp right now IMO, BUT DYODD.
again id like to thank the people ive become trading friends with. what a great way to start a relationship, lets keep it rocking!!!!
bill , et al, hope you had a great weekend, heres to the start of another wonderful week.

Clark and Reilly into double figures
Queen of the South continued their rich run of form with a 2-0 cup success at Edinburgh City, thanks to goals from Nicholas Clark and Gavin Reilly.
The Doonhamers, who currently sit top of the Second Division, could have taken the lead early on when Reilly's right-footed shot was tipped around the post by Andrew Stobie.
Reilly continued to cause problems down the right flank but it was Clark who opened the scoring when he cut in from the left and brilliantly curled the ball inside the near post for his 10th goal of the campaign.
The home side pushed for the equaliser and went close when Ross Guthrie hit the post in the 59th minute.
Reilly then made them pay and joined Clark on 10 goals for the season, when he finished the game off with a cool finish in the 65th minute to round off a wonderful display.

I chose this dilemma because it's so real-life. Lots of us deal with similar walls in our own homes, and they're just plain frustrating:
I would love to hear what you think!
I have a very similar wall in my house, that just happens to be one of the first things you see when you enter the front door. I'm still working on mine, so I'll save it for later. As for Charity's wall, this is what I would do:

Style and Technique (Masterplots II: Short Story Series, Revised Edition)
Glaspell uses rich verbal and dramatic irony to show that women's intuitive powers can be superior to men's analytical skills. Aware of the details of daily household chores, the two women grasp the overall scenario: an enraged husband killed by an even more enraged wife. Besides showing how women know that trifles are not insignificant, Glaspell dramatizes gender differences to foreshadow the women's rebellion. The women, for example, respond sympathetically on seeing the mess from broken jars of fruit, upset at the futility of a woman's hard work in the intense summer heat. On the other hand, the men berate Mrs. Wright for sloppy housekeeping, as if she could have prevented the cold weather from bursting the jars while jailed overnight.
The descriptive narration, interwoven with insightful dialogue, skillfully reveals a sense of place, characterization, and plot events. For example, Glaspell sets the Wrights' farmhouse in a hollow, suggesting the emotional emptiness of their lives. She compares John Wright's hardness to "a raw wind that gets to the bone," and Minnie is like a bird herself—"sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and—fluttery." Although caged up, small, and defenseless like the canary, Minnie becomes enraged enough to murder John.
As the pieces of a patchwork quilt are sewn together, Glaspell slowly stitches together details that reveal the pattern clearly. She makes clever use of the quilting term of...

Historical Context
Turn of the Century Images of Womanhood
The era between 1914 and 1939 is sometimes referred to the modernist period of literary history. During this time, the social climate of many Western countries began to change dramatically. In 1917 the United States entered World War I. This international event threw many accepted social traditions into chaos. While the men were off fighting in the war and dying in greater numbers than ever before, women remained on the home front and increased independence was necessary for their survival. In order to support themselves and their families, mothers, sisters, wives, and daughters began to move into the work force and take charge of their family's well-being. Modernism in literature was a movement characterized by a rejection of traditional literary methods and values. Gone was the adherence to bourgeois values, and in its place was an often pessimistic sense of foreboding and questioning.
The poet W. H. Auden characterized the national sentiment of this era and its response to women's increasing independence as the "Age of Anxiety." The rise of women's suffrage challenged the male world of politics and government and ended their absolute power over the public realm. In 1918 women in England were granted the legal right to vote and suffrage for American women followed in 1920. Political power and economics were now shared—at least somewhat—between the sexes, and the preexisting gender divide between...

Literary Style
Deception and Loyalty
As Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale piece together a probable scenario for Mr. Wright's murder, they become torn between deceiving the men, particularly Mrs. Peters' husband, who is the sheriff, and maintaining their loyalty to a woman with whom they identify. Because the men are so reluctant to consider the quilting, the preserves, and the state of the kitchen to be significant details of the crime, the women may feel that any attempts to convince them of how important these ''trifles'' really are will only be met with more dismissive sarcasm "The law is the law—and a bad stove is a bad stove,'' says Mrs. Hale, succinctly summarizing their quandary. Their deception is borne of their loyalty to another woman—even if it is someone neither of them knew well. Even after the men have searched the grounds and are returning to the kitchen, their minds are not made up. At the end, the attorney tells Mrs Peters that "a sheriffs wife is married to the law." when asked if she sees it that way, and she replies ''Not— just that way."
Public vs. Private Life
The men investigating the crime are unsuccessful in determining a motive that would have prompted Minnie to kill her husband because the are in unfamiliar territory. The division of public and private life in the early twentieth century was very clear. Women remained isolated m the private sphere as homemakers, and men were required to function in the public world as...

Topics for Further Study
"A Jury of Her Peers" is based on Glaspell's own one-act play Trifles. Consider what reasons the author may have had for rewriting the play in short story form. What are the main differences between telling a story through narration and telling it through drama? How might the story be different if it were adapted as another form, such as a poem or a film?
Read Trifles and write an essay comparing the differences between the short story and the play. Which gives you a better idea of who Minnie is? Are there any improvements that you find notable in the short story? Any distractions?
Think about the significance of the title ''A Jury of Her Peers.'' What images might it evoke for a reader? What might it represent in relation to the story?
Glaspell's story demonstrates the domestic roles women were expected to live by at the turn of the century. Research how most women lived back then. What things have changed and how? What has remained the same? Why might some things have changed while others have not?
In what ways does "A Jury of Her Peers" resemble a classic murder mystery? In what ways does it differ from one? What do these similarities and differences say about justice and the duty of law-abiding citizens?
Suppose the situation in "A Jury of Her Peers" were reversed: Suppose John Wright had been a pleasant man, full of the love of life until his marriage to Minnie Foster, at which point he found...

What Do I Read Next?
Trifles (1916), the one-act play by Susan Glaspell, upon which ''A Jury of Her Peers" is based, was written and performed for the Provincetown Players, a theater troupe founded in Cape Cod by Glaspell and her husband, fellow playwright George Cram Cook. It is considered to be her best play by many critics and is frequently included in anthologies of American literature.
"The Yellow Wallpaper" (1892), by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, is the first-person account of a young woman committed to bed rest and psychiatric care by her husband, who believes that her intellectual pursuits, such as reading and writing, are ruining her health.
Their Eyes Were Watching God (1937), a novel by Zora Neale Hurston, tells the story of Janie Crawford, an African-American woman in the South who struggles with her grandmother's lessons that a woman should not marry for love alone. After years of following this advice, Janie decides to marry Tea Cake, the only man she has ever loved. Their romance ends when Tea Cake dies and Janie is tried for his murder.
The Awakening (1899) by Kate Chopin is a short story of Edna Pontellier, a young married woman struggling to discover her own individuality. After a series of events that try her own sense of sexuality, womanhood, motherhood, and freedom, she asserts herself by taking her own life.
''Lamb to the Slaughter," a short story by Roald Dahl published in 1953, is a black comedy...

That is a terrain -- whose name I don't watch that yeah really he's yet -- -- earning of points a very good point well produced all right so.
Did -- but did the legal trouble she is in.
And it hit it two years you say she could ultimately ends for two misdemeanor -- out what what's the likelihood though it's is it and what do we see -- judge doing what they did with a Paris Hilton here and saying in going for like -- we.
Yeah that is like yes and even even if because with Paris Hilton don't forget the sentence was such right five hundreds -- something return in the last segment.
The sentence was such but when they get to the prison.
Then it's not a part of its the court system anymore than at some of Europe's present -- the county county -- and -- they're overcrowded they're overcrowded if you can pay your way out.
Doing -- and I I had the judge in this.
And the situation is.
Going to say it Lindsey have a total disregard the law or somebody that continues to get in trouble you why you fight about your gear your probation you now wide behind it -- how about getting behind.
The wheel of the car if she's found guilty.
And there can be ways in the -- say I want to make sure that -- not released.
Right without you know back to -- -- kind of license and a couple of things like that the media conditions of probation as well.
And how she's still evolving in the Hollywood these days Chris generally I mean I know she just did that movie recently with the canyon breast Easton Ellis certainly -- -- -- had suggested that they are hoping to has salad or take it to can.
Now -- is not gonna take it they're hoping to try to take it to -- back I don't think TriBeCa it's gonna take it either.
So it sounds like that movie's probably gonna go straight to dvd or or -- DirecTV type of release right.
I'll hold a film festival in my front room and I think we might -- entry to that as though it's not going well I I admit that.
I think Charlie Sheen could be good for if she couldn't get a foothold on that show and get a recurring spot.
That could be away from making that what's that's an -- show actually -- -- yeah because so and he is he is publicly said he wants to be your mentor.
And he you know he sees them as -- -- Right at the -- CNN management -- -- -- what could possibly go wrong about them.
Yeah I think.
There was a big -- times piece of bad.
And the making of the canyon right and it didn't just like.
Just how thoroughly unprofessional she was just not showing up we have as anybody wanna work there but like that and this -- you're always late but yeah -- -- yeah.
-- -- police yeah.
-- -- They're very thoroughly professional when you get here until Lindsay is would you point of no.
News at case is sad there's the cycle in Hollywood that people can behave in this manner and look at Charlie Sheen and it as a meant for her the fact of the matter is he candy because he has.
Continued -- career being a total train right and we continue to fund it but that's.
But you watch it right same capacities recognizes me why we like to see the people's but it can't kill all of that if you -- what got a nice case would you send your -- And for how long.
-- woods and I would get her out.
Really well you know tough love but in talking to hammer him I absolutely shares no shares nor are ready thinks she's been a princess and -- -- Basically since -- as a small child and her parents are totally screwed up.
May be seeking -- some kind of sense of who she is if she sits in jail for not understands that this is not the -- council that wouldn't.
-- bad -- Korea moved further than what it -- -- Stints and that they would have then play this down and that would have been that -- -- to what you would -- -- that.
At the two have had to do she turned it down she wants to go to trial she thinks she's not going to jail she's done this before where she's been convicted and gone to jail for ten hours and I data right so what's she watching -- He has played this game before so I think she sees what I want to note that she was not right and that car moved over the when she's been traveling around -- who was driving.
-- -- -- and her assistant is going to be at.
At trial in March 18 at that according to reports and may testify against her saying I wasn't credit cards you get.
Really wow yes Natalie entertaining well look silver bullet to -- -- now.

Competing teams this year: Overclocker Forums Overclockers Austrailia OCN EVGA HArdware Canucks TSC Russia TechPowerUp BITTECH Vietnam Global Team More to come as info is made available...
Sounds great! I have all seven of my G92 GPUs and a GTX460 folding. I need to bake my GTX550TI to see if that will bring it back to life--if so, I'll be at about 60k PPD. I also have a 9800GTX coming too, for maybe 6.5k PPD more.
I've got the software installed and have signed up on the Team.... will be switching over from WCG after I finish up some of the work that the rig has left. I'm guessing that I should bring in 80-100k ppd from the two 580's but we'll see
It sounds like you're in an awesome position there! It's amazing that a single GTX580 will do about 50% more than the 7 G92 cards I have combined...
I'm on board with 7k+ points on this am's FreeDC update! Currently have 3 wu's running (1 on each gpu, 1 on the Xeon hexcore) and it looks like they may all finish today. Total points.... I have no idea???? Heat/power will definitely be an issue so I am working on an off-site location for the rig that I should have available by tomorrow at the earliest or by next Tuesday at the latest.
Norton, you have some high end hardware and so you need to configure a little bit differently. First, you need to get a passkey. This will allow you to get bonuses for your SMP work and access to the beta work units (WU's) Second, you need to turn those GTX580 loose on the beta's. Bring up the advanced control interface, click on configure, slots and for each GPU, you need to select edit and then under extra slot options click add and then put client-type under name and beta under value and it will look like this: When the client is done with it's current job, it will pick up a beta WU. If it doesn't, restart the client. For everyone else reading this, it is MHO that only the high end Nvidia cards should run beta. A GTX 580 can get over 40,000 PPD with the beta's but I can't even get 20,000 PPD with my GTX 560 Ti's, which is less PPD than the non-beta WU's. AMD cards? You'll love the beta WU's. No more huge hit on the CPU.
I agree with Bruce's summarization. 448 Cuda cores or higher is required to make the beta bonus worthwhile. Anything less than 448 and your just taking a beta WU and dragging it out for an entire day instead of several hours for a regular GPU3 WU while netting the same PPD.
OK I made the change- let's see what this does I'm up over 30k now according to FreeDC and have 55 minutes to go on 2 gpu jobs est at 27k or so each*.... so not too bad I think *or is it 3.8k points? EDIT- P.S> had already got the pass key when I signed up
A screen shot would help us make sure you've got it right. I think there's a solid supply. I haven't seen anyone complain about not getting them. But they are beta, so they are subject to change.
Like this? Any help reading this info would be greatly appreciated What kind of ppd would I get from a Radeon 7870 or 7770?
I dont know if it would help you any but I just tried for a few hours to get my 2600k to fold with my 580 and I probably dont have a clue what Im doing but it didnt work. The 580 lost almost 8k in ppd while it was running which wasnt long. it blue screened on me 4 times. So now it is back at 46k with no cpu folding. It might help your ppd to shut down the cpu. I dont have a 7 series AMD card but I just started a 6870 and it is getting 7.2k.
My 580's seem to have straightened out Will let it run like this for awhile and looking into possible improvements in a day or two
it seems my ppd went down when I put cpu at 3.9 ghz to 40k so bumped cpu back up to 4.5 and bumped core to 890 and 48k
Nice to see all the 580s online. You can count mine in now, too. Using the integrated GPU on the 3770K to drive the display to avoid lag and give the WU 100% of the GPU's resources. Will see about getting my 6970 Lightning up in my other machine. See what these new beta units really do with AMD cards
What kind of temps do you guys on 580's or similar? Mine are running in the 70's (air cooled) but I'm not sure if this is normal???
Topped out at 69C on my 580 Lightning. 875mhz core. 6970 Lightning is configured and is working through a WU. In other tasks it runs much hotter than the 580 so I don't think it will see too much production, but we shall see. 6970 Results: 1. They sure fixed the CPU usage issue. I was only seeing 1-3% CPU usage as if I were running an Nvidia card. 2. Production is bad. TPF of 9+mins with ETA of 14hrs is not going to cut it with the power the card uses and the temps it hit (74C). Long live the 580

DHAKA: A 29-year-old Bangladeshi man stabbed his roommate to death because he refused to get out of bed to replace him at the hotel reception where they worked, the Nicosia district court heard Tuesday.The suspect, along with a second Bangladeshi man, 33, were yesterday remanded in custody for eight days in connection with the killing of a compatriot, 25, who was found stuffed in a suitcase in the boot of a car on Monday.The 29-year-old told the court his only mistake was that he moved the body because he was scared, but investigators said he had given a statement admitting to killing his roommate in the early morning hours of Friday.He "fatally wounded the victim with a knife in their room, because he refused to get out of bed to replace him at the hotel reception where their worked, something that happened often," the police investigator told the court.The 25-year-old's body was found inside a suitcase that had been wrapped in a plastic bag.The victim had bled to death as a result of three wounds to the throat, the court heard. He also had defensive wounds on his right hand.Police said they have not yet found the murder weapon.The 29-year-old had claimed initially that he had found his roommate dead in his bed and decided to move his body because he was scared.He also told officers he had cleaned the blood from the wall.The suitcase had been placed in the boot of a car belonging to the victim. It was found in an open parking lot on Eschylou Street in the old town of Nicosia.The 29-year-old had driven the car to where it was found from a nearby parking facility in the moat surrounding the old town's walls.Police said the second suspect had helped the alleged perpetrator carry the suitcase to the car.However, it was not immediately clear whether the second suspect knew what was in the suitcase.He denied any involvement, telling officers that last Saturday he received a phone call from the first suspect who asked him to meet so that he can return €90 he owed and help him move some things.In the early hours of Sunday, according to the second suspect, he helped the 29-year-old move two green plastic bags containing clothes as well as the suitcase, which he was told, also contained clothes.Police said their movements were recorded by security cameras.Footage showed two individuals who look like the suspects, carrying a case resembling the one the body was found in, police told the court.BDST: 2130 HRS, JAN 30, 2013MMA/

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
The markets are reacting daily to the financial news out of Europe will Greece leave the eurozone will Spain need a bail out.
What will the European Central Bank do all these things affect us here in the US but so don't -- to know exactly what's going on or maybe they don't care.
Eurasia -- he's the president -- he's the author of a new book every nation for itself.
Winners and losers and AG zero world in -- here exclusively to talk.
About his G zero theory welcome to the -- -- is easier.
It's a world without leaders you've heard of the G-20 we have all of these eating not take.
Heads of state get together around these big circular tables and then they leave and that's true whether you talk about climate or you talk about -- -- talk -- monetary policy stimulus or bail outs.
They do not agree they aren't prepared to take we've.
Saying they don't leave or they don't get together and form a consensus I mean are they -- their own nation and not just getting together as a group what do you mean.
Well it has a lot of leadership of individual country some effective some not so effective but what we're not seeing as global leadership -- for very long time the United States was providing.
Global leadership WS is still superpower US still has the world's largest military we're not prepared to provide -- kind of global leadership as the world's policeman.
Or -- the lender of last resort or driving globalization we're not prepared to do that the way we have over the past decades but no one else is either so -- -- -- he's here.
But what people say consensus building this kind of catch phrases to -- it sounds like it's in very short trip from there to imposing your own belief system and other people whether.
You even when it's for what you think is the common good whether it's democracy.
Or you know I mean I don't.
What -- right and we've done a good job imposing our will on lots of countries around the world for many many decades and some would say that's a very good thing right and and Europeans generally agreed with us the Marshall plan as well -- or do you think maybe not everybody out there that that's certainly true that after World War II.
Marshall plan.
We imposed our will on the Europeans we built them up MacArthur in Japan we imposed our will on the Japanese we built them up and together.
We had things like the IMF and the World Bank in the united nations Security Council all of these organizations that we US led.
And that it was US leadership was our values and priorities but it created a global market system.
That's gone.
It's gone as of 2008.
We no longer have that global consensus.
Led by the united and we have the European situation how to -- many things and that the Europeans as well a one way that the European situation is very different.
That used to be that the United States if there was an economic financial crisis US would take the reins and say okay Argentina.
We're gonna bail these guys out because otherwise it's a problem for the international community now secretary treasury Geithner.
For more than happy to get on planes and go to Brussels and go to Berlin and dispense wisdom.
Provide advice but we're not writing checks we should be writing checks and we're broke we have the money for that why why should we be -- -- -- check I'm not suggesting we should I'm saying we won't.
And the Chinese from the French -- to the Chinese to have a helping sell the Chinese when -- in other words.
The NC EO wonder about money right you're trying to figure out how shall we should invest.
Historically was important to know that if there was a financial crisis was very -- with the US with a lot of other countries we're gonna band together and provide leadership.
What about Mario Draghi today's standing up -- saying that you know he's going to keep the Euro together provide whatever leadership that is -- Germany it's in their best interest.
There and they're trying to pull the whole thing together -- you think we need to be -- -- I I think the we whether or not we should be.
We won't be in -- -- was there's no one remotely electable either Democrat or Republican it is prepared to say that we should write checks for the Europeans in the same way that they wouldn't say.
We should be fixing Afghanistan where are fixing New Orleans that's just a reality you might be an international you might I don't really care what you preferences are.
My point is we need to know is talking to investors what's going to happen.
What's going to happen is Mario drug is gonna have to fix it himself.
With Merkel.
The only way Europe gets fixed is -- the Europeans do it themselves that says or does not have a 'cause I eventually but takes a very long time and in the interim.
You have European crisis that continues and it affects us the United States.
It affects the global economy.
It's certainly leads to less economic growth more recession in Europe and it means a lot of market pain in these massive spreads it was seeing across -- -- alternative I mean who could step in and and make things better more quickly.
Then the Europeans well then how things are unfolding as they are right now what what would make it -- better -- quicker basis.
-- clearly if the Germans were willing to do it themselves in one fell stroke that's what the markets want to mean they wanna say look you've got to -- these guys out -- you need to crack up the eurozone.
Don't leave us hanging don't drag this out that's one possible outcome.
The second outcome would be.
The Americans with the Chinese the IMF and others do with the Europeans construct some kind of global Marshall plan for the Europeans and bail them out in.
Build the Europeans you know back in after World War II.
10% of American GDP went to build up the Europeans watch that we have markets to invest in European growth is good for us you're saying we shouldn't do that.
That's fair in the -- no miracle I think I would say that my -- Germany's and -- doing exits and their best interest -- seeing Europe is trying to pull itself together.
If we didn't have such an enormous debt and we were -- problems are -- we could do maybe we could do more right.
I don't overshoot or not I don't know I'm not I'm not I'm not totally convinced what I meant love the idea maybe we shouldn't but we will we but the point is really even remotely possible hate eating very interesting thank you so much -- on the cause that is out now is -- We're in a recent get it and thanks for coming on.

This section contains information about businesses and people working in the Epsom & Ewell area.
The Council has finalised its budget proposals for the financial year starting 1 April 2013 and strongly welcomes any comments from businesses either on its budget proposals (by 18 February 2013) or on any of our services and service plans for next year (by the end of February 2013).For many businesses the amount they pay in 'national non-domestic rates' is an important factor in their finances. Councils neither set rateable values for business premises nor the rate poundage (how much of the rateable value businesses must pay). These are done by the Valuation Officer and Central Government respectively. The Council does, however, have the responsibility to consult on its spending plans and of course to collect rates from businesses in the borough. Generally ratepayers' consultation meetings are not well attended. Last year the Council included the consultation as part of a Business Forum Meeting. For the 2013/14 budget consultation is being trialled using a web-based approach with information on Councils spending plans made available as usual but with links to other Council initiatives. Click here to access the information and to take part in the counsulation.

Cooking finger-licking food is certainly an art and you need to keep certain important things in mind in order to come up with delicious dished each time you go to the kitchen. There are multiple dishes that have various recipes. In this article we will provide you some tips that will help you to cook healthy and nutritious food. Many of us believe that foods that healthy foods tastes pretty bad because they are mostly boiled wand without any sort of spices. However in his article we will provide certain tips that will help you to cook yummy heath foods.
Quality ingredients – this is the first thing that you need to focus on. Without proper ingredients you will never be able to produce tasty food. Especially if you are looking to cook a continental dish make sure that you have fresh cooking materials. Even the best chefs in the world make sure that the ingredients they are cooking with are of refined quality.
Proper uses of spices – Spices can be effectively used to add great taste to foods. Moreover certain spices are really good for health. A couple of months back I found that my waist line had increased by 4 inches. And I was hell-bent to shed it off and started skipping meals. Shortly after that I started feeling weak. Then my mom who is a dietician charted a diet list for me. She suggested me to take heavy breakfast. She used to bake the breads and stuff them with boiled potatoes, beans, carrots, capsicums and onions. She used to fry the stuffs with a minimal amount of oil and add a bit of garlic to that. Trust me that used to taste like heaven.
Add color to your dish – Another great way to make your dish exciting is to add colors to it. You can add things like yellow squash, tomatoes, capsicums, blueberries, beans, eggplant and others. These will help in adding colors to your food.
Trying new recipes – Trying new recipes helps you to avoid boredom. If you have been eating the same thing over and over again, you will get bored quite easily no matter how tasty it might be. So you need to try new things periodically. The easiest ways to get started with this is to buy a new fish that you haven't tried before. You can simply fry the fish and have it as a side dish.
Add healthy oils – Use healthy oils such as coconut, olive and mustard oils. If you love the Indian cuisine then you need to use oils. Things such as chicken tikka or fish curry tastes great. However you have to make sure that you do not use much oil as that would spoil the taste of the food.
These are some of the effective things that can help you to cook better. On a concluding note I would like to say that irrespective of what you cook, make sure that you garnish it properly as that will help in making it an exciting addition on the table.
