Great headphones
My 4 year old absolutely loves these. I love that she can play her games without everyone else having to hear it, too. Great for waiting rooms, car rides, anywhere really!
Most Helpful Critical Review
It does not fit securely and it comes out of the plug frequently. However, I like that my daughter can play with her Leapfrog anywhere without subjecting all of us to hear it.

It's a good idea, but the grey part of the headphones keep coming off and they are not as soft as they look in the picture. They do come unplugged very easily.

Not good for little kids
By Brandi
from Michigan
I LOVE leapfrog products!!! This is the ONLY item we have EVER ordered made/sold by leapfrog that we do not like. Our main issue with the earphones is that the fabric covering over the ear "pads" is a separate piece and comes off easily. My kids are constantly bringing them to me to have me put them back on (because it isn't easy for them to do). I bought 3 of them for my older kids to use with their leapsters. Not happy with this product. Makes me sad - as I LOVE EVERY product we own by leapfrog. (and we own over 20 between my 4 kids!!!)
Good for Sensory Issues
By MarylandMom
from Undisclosed
I bought these two years ago for my autistic 10-year-old son. He has sensory issues and loves these earphones vs. traditional ones. We discovered they work on Leapfrog items as well as many other things (like our portable DVD players in the car). They are also much more durable than common earbuds today. They save my sanity on long car trips with multiple children plugged into various devices.
Decent headphones to use anywhere but on a plane
By KandBsmom
from Colorado
We bought these headphones to use while traveling by air and on long road trips. They are comfortable and worked well on our car rides, but did not perform as well as I would have liked on our plane ride. My daughter complained that she couldn't hear her story or the movie (we plugged them into her TAG reader and a portable DVD player). I had the volume on the TAG reader and DVD player turned all the way up to the max and she still had trouble hearing. I even tried them to see if I had better luck but I had to really concentrate to hear what was being said because of all the background noise that you get while on the plane. So if you want them for air travel, then you might need to look elsewhere. We just lost ours (left them in the seat on our last flight) so we are going to try a different product to see if we have any better luck during our up coming flight.

LAKEWOOD RANCH — Years of hard work and dedication have finally paid off for Lakewood Ranch High standout catcher Michael Ohlman.
The Baltimore Orioles selected Ohlman with the 326th pick (11th round) of the Major League Baseball 2009 First-Year Player Draft June 10. Ohlman was with his mother, Tracy, when he learned the good news.
"I'm probably the most excited I've been in my whole life … equal to signing with (the University of) Miami," Ohlman said. "This has been a childhood dream of mine since I knew what baseball was. This whole experience has been amazing."
Ohlman has been perfecting his game since he was 5 years old. His strong work ethic and dedication to the game paid dividends this past November when Ohlman signed his letter of intent to play baseball for Miami — a dream he has harbored since he was a little kid.
"He's an example to all of our younger athletes about what can happen when you commit your life to something," Lakewood coach Mike Mullen said. "He committed his life to baseball- it doesn't happen by itself."
During his senior season, Ohlman posted a .550 batting average with 22 RBIs, 30 walks, 23 stolen bases and three homeruns. Ohlman plans to take some time to just sit back and enjoy the moment before deciding whether or not he'll enter into Baltimore's system or play for the Hurricanes.
"Everything has fallen into place," Ohlman said.

Adenotonsillectomy. In most children with OSA, however, the firstline treatment is adenotonsillectomy. This is curative in 79% to 92% of children,31 although some series have demonstrated complete resolution of obstruction in smaller numbers. Adenotonsillectomy is less likely to be successful in older and obese children32,33 and in children who have underlying chromosomal or craniofacial abnormalities.
When a decision is made to treat OSA surgically, both the adenoids and the tonsils should be removed, barring a compelling reason not to do so.34 Even though the tonsils may appear small on inspection, differences in muscle tone between wakefulness and sleep, especially REM sleep, may result in otherwise small-appearing tonsils having a significant impact on the caliber of the upper airway during sleep.
Following adenotonsillectomy, some children may require extubation to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and/or admission to the ICU until postoperative swelling has receded and the upper airway is stable. In 2002, the American Academy of Pediatrics published guidelines recommending postoperative hospital admission and close monitoring of children at high risk for perioperative complications, including those with severe OSA; children younger than 3 years; and children with cardiac complications of OSA, failure to thrive, obesity, prematurity, recent respiratory infection, craniofacial abnormalities, or neuromuscular disorders.35 In children identified before surgery as having severe OSA, and in those with other underlying risk factors, such as obesity or craniofacial, chromosomal, or muscle tone abnormalities, consider obtaining a follow-up PSG about 8 weeks after surgery to check for full resolution.
Positive airway pressure (PAP). This is the second most common treatment for OSA in children. The pressurized air is generated by a compressor and is delivered through an air hose via an interface: a nasal mask with or without a chinstrap, a full-face mask, or nasal pillows. The amount of pressure required is determined during a titration PSG in which PAP is administered at increasing increments until no further obstruction is seen. Either CPAP or bi-level PAP (BiPAP) can be used. CPAP is used more often, but in children in whom high pressure is required, BiPAP may prove to be more comfortable. PAP is used either until testing shows it is no longer needed or until further surgical or orthodontic interventions can be tried.36 Although PAP is very effective, its success depends greatly on regular use. For a description of an approach to introducing children to PAP and monitoring its use afterward that may increase the odds of success, see the Box.
Less common treatment options. Additional surgical interventions, such as midface advancement, mandibular distraction and advancement,37 tongue reduction, and uvulopalatopharyngoplasty,38 are also used to treat OSA, albeit rarely. These interventions are usually attempted when adenotonsillectomy and CPAP have not succeeded in resolving the obstruction or in children in whom there is a clear indication for a surgical or orthodontic procedure, eg, a high-arched and narrow palate or retromicrognathia; in cases such as these, CPAP is used as a bridge. Although rarely performed for this purpose, tracheostomy can also be used to bypass the upper airway, thereby eliminating obstruction.
Although dental appliances are used to treat mild to moderate OSA in adults, their use is not common in children because of the potential for alteration of the bite and for temporomandibular joint disease.39 Orthodontic interventions, such as maxillary expansion, have been shown to be very successful, both as standalone procedures and in conjunction with adenotonsillectomy, in treating OSA in children.40,41
At Children's Hospital Boston, children in need of positive airway pressure (PAP) meet with one of the sleep technologists in advance of the titration so that they can be fitted with a comfortable and suitable mask. The mask-fitting sessions generally last for 20 to 30 minutes, during which the children are engaged, with the parents present, and the placement and removal of the interface is introduced in a playful and non-threatening way.
The majority of children are able to proceed immediately to a titration study after meeting with the technologist. Others, however, require a period of acclimatization and desensitization at home. In these cases, the families are given the mask to take home and are encouraged to work on getting the child to adapt to the mask at his or her own pace, first by having the child wear it while playing, then while watching television or being read to, and finally by putting it on before falling asleep. A number of parents have reported that they incorporated the headgear for the mask into a game (eg, a mask with mesh-like headgear was referred to as a "Spiderman costume" by one of the children). The habituation process is highly specific, depends on many factors, and can range in duration from a few days to weeks. The families are asked to contact the sleep lab once they feel their child is comfortable wearing the mask; the titration study is then scheduled.
First follow-up visit: a time to review treatment details. Following the titration study, the PAP is ordered with downloadable compliance and efficacy capacity so that adherence can be monitored longitudinally. The child and parent(s) are asked to return in 1 to 2 weeks for follow-up and to bring the mask and machine with them. The machine is checked to make sure it is programmed to the correct settings, and the mask is applied to make sure that the fit is appropriate—not loose enough to cause an air leak, not so tight as to cause skin abrasion or breakdown. The use of the heated humidifier is reviewed, and the family is taught that its use results in diminished nasal stuffiness. Other issues typically discussed at the first follow-up visit include the following:
• | Ways to avoid water condensation in the air hose. |
• | Possible need for adjuvant medications such as nasal corticosteroids, antihistamines, or montelukast(Drug information on montelukast). |
• | How frequently to expect to need to replace the mask and tubing. |
• | Cleaning instructions. |
Monitoring for compliance, effectiveness, and accommodation to growth and change. The downloadable compliance data are monitored at varying intervals. At Children's Hospital Boston, the downloadable compliance data are reviewed 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 3 months after initiation and, if all is going well, every 3 months thereafter. This helps not only to alert providers to any compliance problems patients may be having that they are not reporting (or that the parents may not even be aware of) but also to meet insurance requirements of documented use.
Because children, especially younger children, are constantly growing, leading to changes in airway caliber and compliance, muscle tone, and body mass index, it is important to restudy those receiving PAP therapy on a regular basis. There have been reports of midface hypoplasia developing in infants with longterm PAP delivered via mask42; thus, it is important to watch for this and to discontinue PAP once it is no longer necessary, especially in very young children. Conversely, children who gain a significant amount of weight or who experience a recurrence of symptoms such as snoring, excessive daytime sleepiness, or behavioral disturbances despite documented use of PAP may require higher pressures.
At Children's Hospital Boston, most children younger than 2 years who are receiving PAP are restudied every 3 to 6 months to determine whether PAP is still necessary and whether the settings are appropriate. Children older than 2 years are restudied every 1 to 2 years (unless there are clinical reasons to do so more often).

Keep the peace among all parties this year. We can all co-exist in a world that brought us beets and Bundt cake. Everyone has an opinion and a way of life; we don't need to discuss it while dining.
Intellectually we can all appreciate the message to celebrate the unique body that God gave us, the hard-earned lines in our face, and the marks that symbolize the challenges we've survived. But until you've had a belly that looks like an elephant seal's snout, let's leave these silly proclamations about self-love alone.
A great deal of money is being made from our nutritional confusion. Even worse, the government created these guidelines in much the same way it creates laws: by listening to lobbyists and by making compromises.
At this year's Thanksgiving feast, dessert came and went, and I sipped on coffee while other guests enjoyed pie and cake. It was a lovely Thanksgiving, and I feel even better about it because I stuck to my food choices.
When you have a craving, figure out what you really need, whether it's an emotional need, or a physical one, or both. And set about getting those needs met! You'll be much happier for it.
In the pursuit of health, there is the risk of forgetting what health is for. Health is for living -- and while health certainly makes life better, something is seriously wrong if preoccupation with health ruins the good times. Don't let it ruin yours
So fresh in my mind is the awe-inspiring gluttony of Thursday, followed by a full 72 hours of unadulterated sloth, that I worry I'll soon become one of those people who needs to be removed from his one-bedroom apartment in a wheelbarrow, arm fat spilling over the sides. I vow to change my ways immediately.
The important thing is not "Will this make me fat or help me lose weight?" The thing of importance, and it's very important, is: "Will this help or hinder me from doing the stuff I like?" I like doing stuff.
We tried shifting our wake-sleep cycles so they were more in sync with the rest of nature. We slowly switched most evenings to quiet reading, meditating or relaxing before sleep rather than seeking out the stimulation of computers, hyperkinetic TV and films or other media before bed.
When stress rises during the holidays we are especially vulnerable to overeating foods we associate with fond memories.
People will resort to drastic measures when they're desperate. When it comes to weight loss especially, there are some pretty crazy ideas out there.
If you look beyond all the packaging, business plans and awards what you see are young people embracing the humble ingredients of their traditional diet, which is slowly fading.
Pay attention to your meals. While you're eating, be here now. In the moment. When your attention strays, bring it back. Do it over and over again, for the rest of your life. If you don't meditate, then boom. Now you do.
If there's one number the health-conscious know, it's their cholesterol level.

For those who might be using a non-English language operating system, it is best to leave the Non alpha-numeric check box cleared because of characters that are not normally found on a standard keyboard. In this case, your users are free to use non-alphanumeric characters when they create their own password, you just would not require that they do, and the system will not include them when you automatically generate a complex password. |
For example, suppose you specified that the password must:
contain at least 6 characters
contain uppercase letters
contain lowercase letters
contain numbers
That means that the password must contain at least one uppercase character, at least one lowercase character, and at least one digit. So in this case, a password could be A5s3*v35, but not a5s3*v35, because you specified that a password should have at least one uppercase letter.
When using EFT Server with the Secure Ad Hoc Transfer (SAT) module, if the password settings are set to use a minimum of more than 20 characters, the SAT temporary user creation will fail. If your Site's complex password settings require more than 20 characters, be sure to configure the Ad-Hoc Settings Template to override the Site's password settings so that complex passwords for Ad-Hoc users contain fewer than 20 characters. |
To enforce complex passwords on user accounts
In the EFT Server administration interface, connect to EFT Server and click the Server tab.
In the left pane, click the user or Settings Template you want to configure, then click the Security tab.
Select the Enforce strong (complex) passwords check box, then click Configure. The Password complexity settings dialog box appears.
If the check box and Configure button are grayed out, they are inheriting the setting from the Site or, for a user, the Settings Template. |
Specify the password complexity per the guidelines in the table below:
Field |
Default |
Min/Max Values |
Minimum password length |
8 |
6 - 99 |
The password must contain characters from at least N of the following categories:
3 categories |
2 categories, up to the maximum password length |
Must not contain N or more characters from the user name |
>3 |
2 characters, up to maximum password length |
Must not contain N or more repeating characters. |
3 |
2 characters, up to maximum password length |
Must not consist solely of a word in the following Dictionary file. (Click the ellipse icon to select a file.) |
on |
n/a |
Must not be a dictionary word backwards |
off |
n/a |
The dictionary file cannot exceed 10 MB. If you exceed the file size, the Event log will indicate that not all of the file could be loaded. If the dictionary file is not available, EFT Server operations will continue and a log error is written to the Event log. |
Click OK to save the settings or Cancel to keep existing settings.
Click Apply to save the changes to EFT Server.
COM-created accounts are not subject to complexity requirements unless the CreateComplexPassword method is used. Refer to the GlobalSCAPE Server COM API user guide for details. |

Bench Drumming Skinny Stretch Jean 1 1
Nice Colored Skinny Jean I really liked this skinny jean because of the midrise, the color, and the fit. They make me look smaller and thinner. It looks great with black boots or heels! I would definitely recommend these jeans! They did run a little bit small, I had to order 1 waist size bigger than I usually do, but still a great fit. February 11, 2013

MBTA tokens given short reprieve
BOSTON (AP) -- The MBTA's metal token is getting a temporary reprieve.
The tokens, which haven't been sold since 2006 but were still accepted as payment for a ride on the subway system, were supposed to be phased out for good on Sunday.
But due to demand from riders, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority will continue to accept tokens for credit at certain sites for another three weeks, until July 20.
Jonathan Davis, the T's acting general manager, tells The Boston Globe that an estimated 3.4 million of the little metal discs will then be sold to a scrap metal dealer and melted down, although a few will be kept for jewelry makers to convert into cufflinks, key rings and other items. Some will go to collectors.

Energy Policy Scenarios to 2050
10.1.1. Electricity Generation and End-Use
Alongside transportation, the production, transmission, and use of electricity is one of the most vital technology-development areas to achieve the 3 A's. Rapid global growth in electricity-generation capacity, fueled by growing demand, places clear requirements on the broad deployment of technologies, and along with other objectives (such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions), global growth will drive technological evolution.
Electricity generation technology is likely to be based on coal, and in the medium-term, on clean coal technologies. Large increases in electricity-generation capacity are anticipated in India and China, which will most likely utilise their indigenous coal resources. Together with revitalised coal programmes in North America and Europe, coal technology is likely to develop rapidly, moving through a series of evolutionary cycles from currently available sub-, critical, and super-critical technologies, culminating in the development and deployment of advanced technologies, e.g., integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC).
Key to using coal-based generation technologies, however, is the analogous development of pollution-control technologies. These technologies need to focus on micro-pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulates and on the wider and pressing issue of carbon dioxide. Further development and deployment of carbon capture-and-storage technologies is essential.
In addition to coal, other generation technologies will continue to evolve and play a growing role in electricity supply. The use of natural gas will increase and the widespread application of state-of-the-art combined-cycle gas turbine (CCGT) technology will continue. However, access to natural gas is key. It is therefore highly likely that electricity generation from natural gas will be limited in its regional and geographical extent. There is little doubt that imported liquid natural gas (LNG) will also play a role, as domestic supplies are unable to keep up with demand.
It is expected that nuclear power will undergo something of a renaissance with programmes in Europe, North America, Russia, China, and India already confirmed. These programmes slowly improve technologies into a third and fourth generation set from the current generation technologies.
Renewables (including hydropower) continue to play a growing role. Deployment of electricity generation via wind and biomass is expected across the globe, playing key roles in all regions. Similarly, the development of hydropower will rise, recognising its role as a cost-effective provider of electricity. However, the development of hydropower is constrained by environmental challenges (displacement of people, methane production, competition for fertile land), particularly where large dams are required.
Electricity consumption will continue to be a focal point. Current end-use patterns, particularly in Europe and North America, and to an extent Asia, are at the forefront of policymakers' minds. This political pressure is driving the development of technologies that reduce usage. Tackling "stand-by" loss is a key low-hanging fruit. Ongoing work and innovation could reduce these losses, saving considerable quantities of electricity.
Technological innovation in electricity end-use is also expected. Innovations in lighting (e.g., LED lights), heating and cooling (e.g., advanced heat pumps), and industrial applications (e.g., pumps, motors, and drives) will have a considerable impact. The adoption of minimum efficiency standards for electrical motors and appliances, energy oriented architectural design, that will reduce the need of electric lighting and air conditioning and the reduction of transmission and distribution losses will contribute to save electricity. Also, a more holistic approach to electricity-consumption management (e.g., monitoring and control systems) will also come to the fore.
Estimates from our study suggest that 67 EJ could be saved through the global deployment of some of the technologies discussed. This is 14% of the electricity used today and shows the potential of the demand side to play a significant role in the electricity sector.
It is clear that keeping all options open is key to future success. Further, to allow for the options to be kept open, RD&D and technology transfer will be of paramount importance.

The tragic fact is that most Unions don't realize that we are in a world wide economy and you can't manufacture anything unless you can keep your total costs low enough to compete at the point of sale. Yes, there are some companies that are bringing jobs back for domestic production, but that is only being done in instances where it makes economic sense and automation or well trained labor or the shipping advantage are in favor of the US. But the real problem is the tax code which favors corporations and individuals keeping the profits made offshore out of the US economy. Why the US government would put itself in a situation where it is limiting investment and growth in this country makes no sense. Either way organized labor will have to be competitive and the tort laws have to be changed, other wise the investment will go where it is treated best. A prime regulation example is the Jones Act which has driven almost all major ship manufacturing and ship registration and ownership off shore. The US used to dominate those industries. Will aircraft be the next to go??

I eat a lot. A whole lot of f Thai food that is. I have an obsession with Thai dishes. If I was on death row for committing a capital crime, my last meal would be Kra-pow gai. That's basil leaf chicken for non kon-thais (thai people)
A long time ago my ex and I would always giggle whenever we heard people say "Can we order the FAT Thai. I know sometimes the menu reads FAT thai, but really you should pronounce it phut thai or pad thai.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Fat in Thai is pronounced Oooo-wen as in like "ooooh you're so in trouble" So I quess my blog thai translation is ooohwen-thai.
Well I have to apologize tumblr because i'm about to dilute my fat-thai theme. You see this blog is about my life. And although thai-food and eating in general make up like 99.9 percent of my life, I do love cars.
I'm at a cross roads in my life. Last Thursday I had the pleasure of driving my mom and brother's family to LAX at 6 a.m. I was so hungry that I couldn't sleep and so at 5:00 a.m. I made my way to Mc. Donalds from a breakfast deluxe. I went in my 350z sports car.
Something about that morning marine layer, that empty road, the sound of a baritone and perfectly balanced v6 engine. The sights, the sounds, the gear lever in my hand. It was a visceral wake-you-up adulterous experience. But you i'm about to go to law school for three years. That means three years of busy work. My Nissan 350z deserves more driving time and attention to detail. I'm really thinking about selling it.
I have a buyer in Las Vegas, Surprisingly, the car has kept almost 50% is value after over 7 years. I know it still looks the part but the internal combustion engine is a dinosaur. I want a sports car with more mpg and that same raw feel.
Should I sell it and wait until hybrids become more sporty? After driving a Camry hybrid, with its lack luster performance, I'm not satisfied. But then again i'm busy most of the time. But there always exist the wee a.m. hours where I could have the road to myself. A road I use to travel through the Golden Gate bridge making my way back from many late nights back during my college days. The morning always exists. The morning is always mine.

Sydney: Australia`s Beijing 2008 triple gold medallist Stephanie Rice insists she is just happy to be able to compete at this summer`s Olympics.She said that she would be going into the London Games with an "open mind" after a difficult period trying to overcome injury. Rice - who won her medals four years ago in the 200 metres and 400m individual medley and 4x200m freestyle relay - has been struggling with a shoulder problem and claims she should not be viewed as a favourite for further gold in London.The 24-year-old is frustrated her condition is not entirely as she would like, but she is keen to emphasise how satisfied she is simply to have made it to this point and will be taking the Games as it comes."I`m going in open-minded because I`ve never had a preparation like this," Rice said."I`ve definitely put 100% into it - whether or not it is good enough to get me what I achieved in Beijing I`m not sure, but I don`t really want to think about winning and trying to do that right now."It is all about the journey really, and what I`ve already achieved in swimming I`m so grateful for. If I can add on to that, I`d be really stoked, but if I don`t, then oh well."At least I can walk away saying I couldn`t have done anything more, and that was really all that I wanted to do when it came to these Games."For me, it was a goal in itself just to get to these Games and I just want to do the best that I can."With her track record, Rice admits she cannot be regarded as an underdog, but she is determined to play down her chances of success."It has helped with my confidence to know that I have already achieved something great in such a high-pressure situation - to know that I don`t have to do anything that I haven`t already done," Rice said."But at the same time, achieving that was really hard and it took a lot of work to get there."Everything was smooth sailing and kept going up in my 2008 preparation, whereas this year it has been ups and downs."If I walk away just making a final, and that is it, I`m just so proud of how I have dealt with getting to this point and if there are no gold medals, it doesn`t matter, because this has been such a character-building experience and I will take that through life."I don`t think you can ever put someone like myself in an underdog position after what I achieved in Beijing, but I don`t think of myself as number one going in, so I definitely don`t see myself as being the hot favourite."Someone Rice does rate as a key contender in London is Great Britain`s Hannah Miley, who she is set to face in both the 200m and 400m individual medley events."Hannah is swimming really well and she is definitely someone I have been looking at for quite some time now," Rice said."Her and (United States swimmer) Elizabeth Beisel are definitely going to be the hot two contenders in the 400m."Rice was speaking in Manchester, where the Australian swimming team have been training as part of their preparations for London 2012.The United States basketball squad have also been in town for an Olympics warm-up match with their GB counterparts at the MEN Arena, and Rice was delighted to cross paths on Thursday with NBA star Kobe Bryant - who it seems was as eager for an autograph as she was."It was awesome that he came out to the pool yesterday [Thursday] because everyone was so excited," Rice said."Kobe came in and everyone did like the best session they have ever done!"It was really cool and his daughters said they were fans of me, so they wanted a signed swim cap."He gave me his signed shoes, so I`m pretty happy with the trade-off!"BDST: 1750 HRS, July 21, 2012Edited byChanchal Ghosh, Newsroom Editor

great review as always, as we know this isnt for the average joe, but for those who like the best or who have 60" tv this would be a must have...
as allways great review W1zz! im surprised to see that the performance between this and the 3870x2 is so close, i really thought it would be much better if it were me id save the $150 get the 3870x2 and a few gigs of god RAM
Great review, I wasn't clear on the drivers used though. However, I do like the idea of you using a motherboard other then a 790i or 780i Edit: OK, I looked again and the drivers found in the Test Bed are clear! W1z, is it possible to OC the E6550 to 3.6GHz and bench 2 games just to see if the CPU is holding the X2 and GX2 back?
Yeah, I would definitely guess the CPU is hold the GX2 and X2 back at the lower resolutions, which is causing the results to be a little unclear. These cards should be scoring much higher scores at lower resolutions. The card isn't perfect, but it is good to see the cooling doing a much better job than the X2's cooling. NVidia has really put some thought into it, and it shows. The design definitely is complicated, and after market cooling will be a pain, but with temps as good as they are, who needs aftermarket cooling? It is nice to see it overclock so well also. I definitely thing the card is a very good card, but not worth $600. Buying two 8800GTS 512MB cards is cheaper than that. Then again, buying two 3870s is cheaper than buying a 3870x2. I'd expect the price to drop on this once the initial hype of the card is gone. I expect to see a the price drop to the $500 range in a few weeks. I'm interested to see quad-SLI up and running though, I hope it is better supported than now than it was before. Great review W1z, I love your reviews. They are so detailed.
Yeah, saw that too, but I think that was with insane OC on the CPU/GPU (~5.7Ghz on the CPU, cant remember GPU numbers). Should be good for some WR. BTW, also like to say great review W1zzard.
3dmark06 also has cpu score included in the final result. look at other benchmarks. i also ordered an e8400 for our future gpu reviews rig .. once they are in stock
now thats a satisfying review , honestly , my hats of to Wizz on this one ................. this is the best comparision i have seen b/w the x2 and gx2 .................. and the difference is clear and i am actually surprised ( but happily ) that we dont need an sli board to run this ............ maybe when the prices drop ( wishful thinking ) ill get me self one. but for value of money and what an x2 and gx2 deliver , they stand perfect in their spots , as bang for you buck.
Title needs to change - unless this IS the 9600GX2, and the 9800 is yet to come - lol that would be something.
Great review w1z The card is a pretty big disappointment to me.. it only scores a few extra frames or its on par with everything else. Nvidia better hope its just drivers
miss spelled 9800GX2 on the closer look page..... it says " the zotek 9600GX2 is compatable with any 9600GX2"
Source This is what I wanted to know. Until I know the PCIe frequency from other reviewers I will take their results with a a grain of salt! Thanks W1z! W1z is it possible to show results with the GX2 with a PCIe freq of 100 and 110 to see what kind of gains are had with the PCIe Freq vs GPU OC?
i'm happy i even had an XP driver at all... nvidia said "blah blah great card for vista and dx10" .. and gave reviewers only vista drivers .. "we will have xp drivers at launch" .. kthxbye
Well, what will 3 HD3870's or a 3870X2 + 3870 compare to the GX2? Cos, 449 for an X2 + 170 for a 3870 = 619$ which is not that more from the GX2's 599$ price tag. Oh, and BTW, great review!
Wowo allot of game bench's was weird the first few benches you did the single way out preformed the duel. But when aa mode was on the duel kicked up only because the aa work load was shared right. But awesome Review like always.

Posted: Feb 5, 2013 2:31 PM by NBCDFW.com
DALLAS (NBCDFW.com) - Two people were shot and killed Monday morning in an argument over dog feces, Dallas police say.
Officers were called to a shooting at the Sable Ridge Apartments on the 6100 block of Abrams Road at about 8 a.m. Monday.
When officers arrived, they found two people, later identified as 32-year-old Michelle Jackson and 31-year-old Jamie Stafford, dead at the scene from apparent gunshot wounds. An infant inside the couple's apartment was not injured.
After talking with witnesses, police began searching for Chung Kim, a resident of the complex identified by residents as a man who lived in the unit below Stafford and Jackson and was seen leaving the complex after the shooting.
Police later located Kim in his black Lexus SUV on a nearby street and took him into custody.
Investigators said the couple had been dumping dog feces on the patio and at the front door of Kim's apartment. During the dispute Monday morning, police said Kim pulled out a gun and shot Jackson as she stood on her balcony. Police said Kim then went upstairs and into the couple's apartment and shot Stafford as he jumped off the balcony while trying to escape. Police said Kim then stood over Stafford and shot him again.
Residents told NBC 5 they heard arguing followed by several gunshots.
"I heard about eight or nine gunshots just go off, "Bow, bow, bow," like three separate times. It was like, first there was two or three, then there was a pause for like 30 or 40 seconds and then there was another three or four shots, and there was a pause , and a couple more shots," said resident Michael Issa. "I waited for like three or four minutes and I ain't hear nothing. I came outside to smoke a cigarette and look upstairs and there's feet hanging over my head," said resident Michael Issa.
A friend of the victim said there had been several arguments over pets and noise.
One neighbor, Yoland Washington, spoke of the couple's children, including the infant who was home at the time of the shooting.
"When they come home today, their mother and their father is gone. Little baby, they call the newborn Little Mama, Little Mama is not going to never know her parents. She'll never know her parents. Never," said Washington.
Marissa Gonzales with Child Protective Services said they took temporary custody of a 1-month-old child found unharmed inside the apartment. CPS said there were three other children who were attending school at the time of the shooting. All of the children are now with relatives.

Dean's been around the rodeo circuit long enough to know when a new kid is down on his luck. Giving Will a ride to the next event is just the neighborly thing to do, passing on some of the kindness strangers have shown him over the years.
Who could expect that Will could be such good company? So good in fact, that Dean figures he might just keep Will around. Will feels the same way, despite protests from friends and family. They have a lot in common, traveling together from rodeo to rodeo, enjoying all of the fringe benefits they can. These two cowboys are a match made in heaven, but can they convince everyone else to let them live their own lives?

Napa Valley Wine Train: Have Wine, Will Travel
I'm not sure if there's anything better than a nice glass of wine and a lovely meal. Oh wait, there is – having that wine and meal while on the Napa Valley Wine Train traveling through the gorgeous wine country. I have only read about the famous food and wine tour of Argentina. Better than that? Yes, and having Ryan Gosling as your sommelier, but let's not get carried away.
Recently I was lucky enough to be a guest on the Napa Valley Wine Train. For any of you unfamiliar with this iconic attraction, it's a three-hour trip – via gorgeously restored vintage rail cars – through the beautiful Napa Valley. While traveling you're served a gourmet lunch (or dinner) and wine from the local wineries. If you're fortunate like we were, your wait person will have extensive knowledge of the surrounding region and can give you a quick education on the various vintages – this was pretty helpful for a wine novice like me.
You would think that with everything going on – The train! The scenery! The wine! – the food would take a backseat, but you would be mistaken. Their menu is first-rate, and I was impressed to learn that they are committed to using sustainable foods in all their dishes. I had their excellent Coriander Breast of Chicken with Baby Arugula that was in a light peppercorn sauce – a very generous portion that I could barely finish (especially since I wanted to save some room for the desserts that I'd heard everyone buzzing about.) For my wine choice, I went with their suggested pairing, a 2008 Romililly Pinot Noir that was the perfect accompaniment to my meal. Read More »

Nokia Siemens Networks, which is trimming headcount as it tries to turn its financials around, will unload its optical networking unit to a private equity concern, the company said Monday.
Marlin Equity Partners will buy Nokia Siemens Networks' optical unit for an undisclosed amount. According to Marlin Equity Partners, the unit will be established as an independent company, based in Munich, Germany, to compete in the optical networking market. Meanwhile, Nokia Siemens Networks will put its energies into mobile broadband, which the company has said would be its strategic focus going forward.
"During 2012 Nokia Siemens Networks has made tremendous progress in the transformation of our company to being the world's mobile broadband specialist. Our strategic focus on our core markets has enabled us to concentrate our energy and investment in areas such as LTE where we have strengthened our global leadership position," Rajeev Suri, Nokia Siemens Networks' CEO, said in a statement.
[Related: 12 Recent Networking and Infrastructure Deals To Keep An Eye On]
The transition will affect 1,900 employees, based primarily in Germany, Portugal and China, who will transfer to the new company, according to Nokia Siemens Networks.
Nokia Siemens Networks was formed as a joint venture of Nokia and Siemens in 2007, but it has been unprofitable for all but two quarters since then. A year ago, it confirmed plans to cut 17,000 jobs and divest certain businesses as it shifts its focus entirely to the mobile broadband market. Adtran acquired Nokia Siemens Networks' fixed line broadband business in 2011.
Telecom researcher Ovum hat-tipped the move, saying the optical unit didn't appear to have much hope in its present form.
"When Nokia Siemens Networks announced its updated strategy about a year ago, it said it was focusing its business on mobile broadband but needed to keep its optical group as a complement," Dana Cooperson, leader of Ovum's Network Infrastructure Telecoms practice, said in a Monday note. "This struck Ovum as odd: its strongest position in optical (it's ranked 10th globally in the $14.9B market with just under $500M annual sales) is in the network core, where there is little connection with mobile broadband."
Continued Cooperson: "NSN's optical business has been slipping for years with no clear plan to improve; it has not done the kind of fundamental R&D that its main competitors (e.g. Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, Cisco, Huawei) are doing."
Cooperson further speculated that Marlin Equity's goal may be to sell the optical business to another telecom infrastructure-focused vendor, such as Juniper.

My qüestion is about the cc2540 and its development kit. I have a doubt in the schematics design that appears in the document SWRR071. There are 2 inductors between the chip and the antena (ref. 251 and 261), that seem to have a value of 2.0nF in the schematic, but in the components boom they have a value of 2.2nF. Which is the correct value for this components the one that apperas in the schematic, the one that appears in the boom or both?
Thanks for the answer!

The future is roaring back to life. Markets, industries, innovation—all are rebounding from one of the worst recessions in history. But the optimism is cautious. We know we are not invincible. We know things need fixing. Now is not the time for small advances and gradual improvements.
Now is the time for big ideas—ideas that can change the world.
Such breakthroughs rarely happen incrementally. They come all at once, often from the least likely places. They are the very definition of disruptive innovation. It takes vision to see them, to participate in them, to harness their potential. It requires a willingness to blow up established products, markets, and companies.
This year's WIRED Business Conference is about hunting big game. It's about sparking revolutionary change. It's about people who are trying to reinvent the building blocks of business and culture. Luckily, new technologies are making this easier than ever. From major corporations to driven individuals, anyone can make a huge difference. Come see how people with wild ambition—and the tenacity to back it up— are changing everything. It's a day guaranteed to make you think bigger.

Once I get the correct size ( they run very small) I plan to try them for my water aerobic class. I don't think they will fall off in the water because of the wide band, and the little treads at the bottom will keep me from slipping.

Mary Jane Slippers are perfect comfort and style for home use but I ordered 2 pair of the largest size available and they are too small. My shoe size is 8.5. I wanted to send them to several family members and friends but tried them first.

The Rajiv Gandhi Foundation (RGF), and Sarai, CSDS, have decided to enter into a collaboration with the broad goal of making computing facilities available to people in Indian languages, thus empowering them to access information and work in their native tongues. As the development paradigm in India shifts towards an emphasis on knowledge driven through information technology, computing in Indian languages becomes increasingly important for the flourishing of hitherto marginalised languages and cultures, and their inclusion in the emerging economy. A key aspect of Indian language computing is localisation, i.e., the process of translating the user interface of software applications into Indian languages, thus making it possible to make full use of them without knowing any English. Towards this end, RGF and Sarai, CSDS, have jointly funded fellowships for localisation of free/open source software (FOSS) into languages including Assamese, Hindi, Kashmiri, Oriya, and Urdu. Typically, such a localisation effort covers at least twothirds of the applications included in a FOSS desktop, working out to the translation of about 40, 000 phrases, or of nearly 3, 00, 000 words. While the Hindi translation is quite advanced, localisation work is just commencing in Kashmiri and Urdu, and is at an early stage in Assamese and Oriya.
We plan on holding a series of public workshops at various places in the country, focused around the work in the fellowships. The goal of these workshops will be to disseminate the material created during the course of the fellowships, and to publicise the availability of computer interfaces in Indian languages. A manual review of the application interfaces is needed to identify any problems with the translations, and we will conduct such a review by taking advantage of the expertise of the variety of people from different backgrounds present at the workshops.
The first of these workshops will be held in the seminar room of Sarai, CSDS, on the 7th, and 8th of March, 2008, from 10am onwards on each day. It will present the current status of work done in Hindi, and Urdu. Some translators for Kashmiri will also be present to discuss the status of work being started on that language. For Hindi, this will include showcasing work done on localizing KDE 3.5, and on the forthcoming release, KDE 4. The former work has won an award from FOSS India 2008 as one of the outstanding FOSS projects in India, and the latter will be important in ensuring that localisation keeps pace with new releases of the desktop. For Urdu, this will cover the preparation of a glossary of technical terms, and the exhibition of the first few applications localized into Urdu. People commencing the Kashmiri work will discuss the issues that they face, and their approach to solving these.
You are cordially invited to be present at the workshop. The workshop is open to the public, and you are encouraged to post this note on public notice boards, and to forward the invitation to others.
