I can see the marketing campaign now! GEFORCE TITAN 780..Easily Satisfying the Demands of All Your Console Ports!
And the amount of memory that is placed on the PCB and the firmware - yes. There is no architectural differences in the GPU itself. The most you'd see is some disabled CUDA Clusters here and there, but that doesn't change the underlying architecture.
Sure if you want to stay in 1080p. I'm rather interested in the remaining pieces of the 700 series. Possible gtx 760 = current gtx 670 ?
why are you guys worrying about 1080p... I would hope that anyone that spends 900 on a card would have a 1600p or 3d surround setup
$900, still no improvement in perf/USD, 2bad. Yawn. That's not how you popularize PC gaming. Tough times for nVidia, Tesla got a problem with Xeon Phi, Tegra 4 apparently sucks, next gen consoles use AMD hardware (although a mistake IMHO, absolute performance and perf/Watt wise), GeForce might be next in trouble (I certainly hope so, because of their price politics, PhysX restrictions, 1/24 double precision performance of GTX600 series, they practically invented and killed GPGPU for consumer)...
It used to be that PC gaming was clearly superior. Graphics were light years ahead, controls were....more than 4 buttons lol. And the fact that the game can be extensive and lengthly. Now that difference is much smaller while the difference in price still remains a huge gap. $250 console is ready to game with any TV and works as soon as you turn it on without much hassle. PC gaming needs over $1000 and a lot more problems. From my experience, xbox live seems to have much less server problems than any of the PC titles. There tends to be less hackers and cheaters on xbox live. However, the big downside is there's a lot of screechy 10 year old boys that will curse at anything unfavorable to him. The answer is clear for the vast majority of the people who wants to game. It's cheaper, it's simpler, it works much much more often, it cheaper, it's much more reliable, it eats less juice, it's cheaper, and............it requires no upgrades so therefore it's cheaper.
which is exactly what makes me think Titan is a dual gpu. Plus the memory amount 2x 3Gb makes more sense then a single gpu 6gb card. Then I'd expect the single gpu variant to be in the 450-500$ range with 3gb while offering 10-20% more performance than the 680.
"Problem?" -Nvidia Well, you see, it's not as easy to maintain a 64 players server as it is a 24 players server. Under that context all mainstream/performance laptops would be considered the top of economical efficiency. PCs don't "Require" updates, advanced game engines does. If you are going to stall that, well....
The graphics bit might be true now, but historically it's not true. Look at the old SNES JRPG's for instance (for extensive and lenghty), or the original Tomb Raider and Goldeneye for the N64 (for graphics). And when you get to certain genres the console has always been superior (fighting and sports comes to mind).
Point to be noted: what's known for sure that's the Titan will sport a GK110, which is faster than the GK104 used in the GTX690. Now, it's difficult to believe that Nvidia will retail a card based on two state-of-the-art/flagship/etc GPUs, and retail it for less than another card with 2 lesser GPUs.
How did this become a PC vs Console thread? There are no doubts PC has its own advantages and Consoles have their own. One thing is for sure, you can't put all the passion you put into your PC on a Console. On topic : If this is a single GPU and will have unlocked voltage then count me in for one, I've been longing for a worthy 6990 upgrade.
Yup...because the target market for $900 graphics cards uses 1920x1080 To those bitching and moaning about the graphical detail of "console ports", I suggest that software development generally follows hardware development. I think I'd be more concerned with the content (originality) of a game before its textures' ability to saturate the framebuffer, or looping post-process compute function for an end result that yields minimal image quality improvements while heavily decreasing framerate.
yes, software development generally follows hardware development but it also follows the money. in case you havn't noticed, for the past 6 years developers have been heavily focused on console titles. the hardware doesn't change so you get a nice static API to work with which means more efficient developers which leads to higher profit margin. this is not going to change. also note that yes PC sales have been up the past couple years respectively but that is mainly because the games being developed are not pushing the hardware. developers are not bothering!
It probably has to. Integrated graphics are evolving faster than discrete, and that benefits the one company that couldn't give a shit about game dev relations. With screen resolution and APIs (D3D, OGL) increasing only fractionally for graphics horsepower requirement, and the prospect of rasterization remaining the only form of gaming render, the ball is in Nvidia's -and more increasingly, AMD's (with their console hw and Gaming Evolved program) court. On a related note, here's a graph I made (numbers averaged between JPR and Mercury Research where both were available) for an article (still under consideration at another site) tracing the history of graphics from the 1950's military simulators to the present day. The trend is pretty self explanatory.
With a market share like that intel should make a GPU that is decent to game on and they would skyrocket.
Don't forget that not all console games come to PC, eg i would have loved to see MGS4 Guns Of The Patriot come to PC, but it was a PS3 exclusive so i had to get a PS3 just to play the game. As someone wrote I'd rather save the $899 and by both PS4 & XBOX720 just so i can play the exclusive titles that i love, tho i wish the exclusive titles were Multi-Platform so i would just use the PC, but its not like that.
the point is they don't have to. it is probably more profitable not building a discrete gpu. if history is any indicator the gpu card is going to way of the sound card, ethernet card and raid card. unless you need the absolute best you simply don't need one.
Am I missing something here? They will get thousands of complaints..... all those 32bit systems with no Ram left to play the game with...... keen gamers are not necessarily tech enthusiasts
/not sure if you're playing the ironic card Just a wild guess on my part, but there could be an outside possibility that someone spending $900 on graphics could possibly be using a 64-bit OS. And I'm not sure that "thousands" of prospective Titan owners would still be tied to a 32-bit operating system...if indeed, thousands of Titan cards are actually produced.

Fleur de Rocaille was given to me at age 18, by my aunt, a woman of impeccable taste. I have always loved it because it makes me feel wonderful. As well, others love the scent. Just recently, when entering an airplane, the male flight attendant proclaimed loudly "MMMMMM - someone smells nice!"

The National Hockey League is back and much has changed.
Detroit returns to the Eastern Conference for the first time since the NHL placed them in the Western Conference at the start of the 1993-94 season. And Daniel Alfredsson is there with them, leaving behind the captaincy of the shoestring Senators.
Columbus has moved to the East, too, though they're largely an afterthought. The old divisions are in the dustbin. The schedule is unbalanced in ways big and small, but at least we're back to an 82-game grind, where improbabilities are more likely to be subsumed by sheer volume.
And that should make last season less of a predictor of future behaviour than most years, because in a span of 48 games luck plays a bigger role than it does over 82. The bounces of the game, the little mistakes, the injury that sidelines your best player for six weeks - all those are magnified when there's only so much road to run.
They will return with a vengeance in the playoffs, of course, because that's hockey for you.
But during an 82-game regular season, the teams that deserve to make the playoffs should get there, more or less.
The league is remarkably stable as it enters its first full season since the 2012-13 lockout. There is no looming labour stoppage, fewer ownership worries, a TV deal.
Sidney Crosby is healthy again, for now. Alex Ovechkin is an MVP again, for now. And the last six Stanley Cups have been captured by big or powerful markets - Chicago, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Detroit. There won't be another lockout until 2021 or so - there will almost certainly be another one then since, from an ownership standpoint, they work - and there are new owners in New Jersey, Florida and even Phoenix.
So in the last year, commissioner Gary Bettman has actually sold the Coyotes to someone, bargained players down to 50 per cent of revenues from 57 per cent, authored a historic partnership on gay issues with You Can Play and overseen a slight reduction in the size of goalie pads. He must be pleased.
All this means, of course, there will be problems elsewhere.
The league just announced a new partnership with Advil, which is a good reminder that talk of concussions died down during the shortened season, even if the concussions themselves did not.
Thanks to Monday's adoption of hybrid icing, this was probably the first year nobody knew the rules until the day before the season began. And thanks to the new conference alignment, there is some fresh uncertainty.
"Frankly, the addition of a team, seven versus eight (in a division), those aren't the teams that are really competing for the playoffs," Bettman told the Canadian Press this week. "It's really the top five or six teams that are doing it. I don't think it's a good idea for clubs to be using this as an excuse as to whether or not they make the playoffs."
The top three teams in each of the four divisions will make the playoffs and then two wild-cards will round out the field regardless of division. And then the first couple rounds of the playoffs will be intra-divisional matchups, unless they're not.
Bettman's protestations aside, in a league whose standings are so often flattened by the three-point game, if you're in the 14-team West you have a 57 per cent chance of getting in, versus 50 per cent in the 16-team East. Good news for Edmonton, Vancouver and Winnipeg; not so good for Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto.
And it's potentially excellent news for the team that came closest to knocking out the Cup champion Blackhawks, even if it's all new to them, too.
"We could sit here and I could tell you systems-wise what Chicago's going to do, St. Louis, Nashville, Vancouver, L.A. - I can tell you what they're going to do on their power plays, penalty kills, everything like that," Detroit goaltender Jimmy Howard said this month. "But to be honest, I can't really tell you much about the Eastern Conference and what they're going to be doing."
Of course, the East doesn't know much about Detroit, either.
They will learn. Everyone will learn. The nets are shallower, which should give creative types more angles to play with and force hard-hitting defencemen to make more decisions.
Patrick Roy is back again and Martin Brodeur is about to leave (and if he hurries the Devils might even make the playoffs, somehow). Roberto Luongo is back working solo. Marc-André Fleury is, too, for the moment. And Ilya Bryzgalov has been jettisoned out into the universe.
Chicago deserved to win the Stanley Cup last season; every team that made the playoffs deserved to get in. In hockey, "deserve" is a tricky word given the way the puck can bounce. But the Blackhawks earned their way to the top and they deserved it.
Would it have happened after a longer regular season, with more chance of injury, of fatigue, of the vagaries hockey brings? Impossible to know.
But now luck will have less of a role, hot streaks will have less of an impact, the rhythms will change and flatten into the familiar.
The NHL is really back, well and true.
Settle in and buckle up.

Amnesty International welcomes the return of the 4 British detainees (such as Moazeem Begg (photo)) from Guantanamo Bay ('Gitmo') to the UK. However this was not before time. They were held for over 3 years without access to legal advice and subjected to torture and intimidation. Despite intensive efforts not a single person in Guantanamo Bay has yet to be charged with any crime.
Contrary to today's news (25/1/05), these are not the "last" British Guantanamo internees, there are at least 5 British residents who are still being held without charge.
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4205989.stm). For example, Bisher al Rawi, originally from Iraq, but he has lived in the UK for 20 years, having been (justifiably) offered asylum having been tortured by Saddam Hussein. All his children are British. Instead, of offering any kind of help/advice, the UK government has washed their hands of the issue.
Detention without trial does not work. The last time the UK government attempted to use detention without trial was in Northern Ireland in the early 1970s in a failed attempt to curb the IRA. Does the following description sound familiar?
3000 soldiers backed up by the local police using out-of-date intelligence swooped on houses throughout a country looking for members of a very violent terrorist organisation and arrested over 300 men, all from a single religious group. By the time the operation was completed, the army had arrested many who had no connection with the terrorist organisation. As the arrests continued, the army had to open a disused military base to accommodate the prisoners. Writing years later, the Home Secretary who sanctioned the action said the experience was "by almost universal consent an unmitigated disaster". Many of those arrested were subjected to inhuman and degrading treatment. This was not Guantanamo Bay in 2005, but the effects of Internment in Northern Ireland in 1971 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/war/troubles/origins/internment.shtml). Do we learn nothing from history? Detention without trial does not work. Yet there are still over 500 inmates in Guantanamo who have yet to be charged with anything. I believe it is completely unjust to hold anyone, guilty or innocent, without charge and without access to legal representation for an indefinite period. This has been the subject of much criticism from the Red Cross (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3179858.stm), the European Parliament (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/1774237.stm), Amnesty International (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/2648123.stm), the United Nations (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/1816648.stm) and the International Bar Association (http://www.guardian.co.uk/guantanamo/story/0,13743,1060689,00.html). If those detained in Guantanamo, are guilty, they need to be charged with a crime, tried and punished like any criminal. If they are innocent, they should be released forthwith. Justice needs to be done, and to be seen to be done either way. Anything other than an insistence of either the immediate release of these detainees or them being charged as part of an appropriately recognised due legal process is merely tacit agreement with the Bush administrations ongoing human rights abuses. Don't don't take my word for it- one of the country's most senior Law Lords, Lord Hoffmann, said of the UK governments anti-terror laws in relation to detention without trial: "The real threat to the life of a nation, in the sense of a people living in its accordance with its traditional laws and political values, comes not from terrorism, but from laws such as these". Thus on April 17th, I aim to run 26.2 miles dressed as a Guantanamo internee (ie orange jump suit and chains) in ~ 4.5 hours to raise money for Amnesty. As part of my 'training', I have performed dress rehearsal runs in my home town of Belfast and presented a letter of protest to the US consulate, as well as similar half-marathon to the Birmingham Law Courts to meet Moazeem Begg. I am very grateful for all the help from everyone at Amnesty, plus all the journalists, photographers and TV people who have helped cover this to date(Birmingham Post, the Times, Newsletter, Irish News, Daily Ireland, South Belfast Post, Hagley Village News, BRMB, Heart FM, Radio WM, Radio Ulster, Downtown Radio, City Beat FM, UTV, Central News, BBC Midlands Today, BBC2, BBC News 24). Keep this story running!! I also hope to raise the profile of the ongoing detention without trial of the over 500 individuals kept in Guantanamo Bay. If you agree with me that detention without trial is a travesty of the principles of justice on which all truly democratic countries are founded, write to your MP at www.faxyourmp.com. I am running with the support of Mr Begg's family (Azzmat Begg (see lower left photo), Terry Waite and other members of the Guantanamo Human Rights Commission (http://www.guantanamohrc.org/) Ten reasons to sponsor Dave, and answers to some of my critics. 1. I am grateful for all your donations, and if I have inspired some of you to give money to another charity that is absolutely brilliant, but that charity won't be sharing my agony. So sponsor me, and support human rights 2. This is a 'Win-win-win' situation- I get fit, Amnesty raises money for human rights, and we make loads of people aware of ongoing human rights abuses in Guantanamo and elsewhere. So sponsor me! 3. Amnesty International supports human rights projects throughout the World, eg projects on domestic violence, campaign against the arms trade, the death penalty, plus the ongoing human rights abuses in Guantanamo and elsewhere. For further information go to http://www.amnesty.org.uk/ This truly is a good cause so sponsor me! 4. Amnesty does not support terrorism! In fact it is interesting to reflect that Amnesty International did not support Nelson Mandela when he was incarcerated as he was the leader of the ANC and Umkhonto we Sizwe (the military wing of the ANC), and Amnesty does not support those who have embraced violence. 5. All the stuff I've cited is from reputable journalists (eg Channel 4 News, Newsnight, Guardian, Observer, BBC, Associated Press). If you read the 'Daily Mail', don't expect to be informed! So sponsor me for all this free journalism! 6. I have used all legitimate methods of protest about Guantanamo, written to my MP etc. on multiple occasions (I'm still waiting a reply from Jack Straw from 3 months ago). Since we live in a "elected dictatorship" (according to Lord Hailsham) its time to exert a bit of non-violent protest. So sponsor me! 7. There are any number of bizarre or mainstream charities I could have run for, but that would have been too straightforward- my heart, soul, mind and legs wouldn't have been in it. So sponsor me and raise money for Amnesty!. 8. Even those crusty MPs in the Foreign Affairs Select Committee agree with me this week (March 25th). They have reprimanded the UK government for failing to state they refuse to accept information extracted through torture and also for taking stronger action on human rights abuses in Guantanamo (http://www.politics.co.uk/foreign-policy/mps-condemn-government-silence-in-torture-row-$8116224.htm So sponsor me and raise money for Amnesty!. 9. There is increasing evidence that the US is deliberately 'outsourcing' detainees to third party countries to enable interrogation under torture to take place (Guardian, 19/3/05). An estimated 10,000 individuals are now being held in 'US detention' in Afghanistan, Eygpt, Thailand, Yemen, Saudia Arabia, Syria (!) according to UK and US military sources. The current US attorney general (Alberto Gonzales) in 2002 received a memo defining torture as "serious physical injury, such as organ failure, impairment of bodily function or even death." Good to know that electrocution, hanging people by handcuffs and sexual abuse are still OK!!! These people are dangerous, so sponsor me! http://www.cnn.com/2005/ALLPOLITICS/01/06/gonzales.hearing/ 10. I did it!!! 4 hours 43 minutes. Fantastic atmosphere-see below for details...so you really DO have to sponsor me! My article in the Birmingham Post explaining why I am running the marathon is at: http://icbirmingham.icnetwork.co.uk/birminghampost/news/tm_objectid=15304580%26method=full%26siteid=50002-name_page.html ######PRESS RELEASE##### On Saturday (the eve of the London marathon), I went to Downing Street with relatives of 3 UK residents still being held in Guantanamo Bay. The example of one of them gives some idea of the background to the living hell these families have been through. Amani Deghayes (pictured) is the sister of Omar Deghayes. Omar Deghayes, 35, came to the UK with his mother, sister and brother from Libya in 1986, six years after his father, Amer - a prominent figure in Libyan public life who pioneered trade unions - was assassinated by Colonel Gadaffi's regime. The family left Libya and were granted asylum in this country since 1987. Omar studied law at Wolverhampton University. After his degree, he went travelling, met his girl-friend, now wife in Pakistan. After 9/11, he was kidnapped and taken into Afghanistan and, it is believed sold onto the US authorities (who pay $5000 for such 'terror suspects'). He has been held in Guantanamo for 3 years, during which he has gone blind in one eye, following an assault from a US soldier. His family have yet to hear of any charges being brought against him. Whilst in Guantanamo, he has been interviewed twice by Libyan security services, who have threatened to kill him if he ever returns to Libya. The UK government maintains that it can only represent British citizens not British residents. This is just one example of the kind of injustice by our governments failure to address the ongoing human rights abuses in Guantanamo. Previously, Downing Street agreed to let our delegation present a letter of protest to the steps of Downing Street. On Saturday, one hour after I gave a live interview to BBC News 24 dressed as above, that offer was withdrawn (see photos of me debating this point with London's finest). We gave our letter to security. Quite simply it was an honour to have the support of these families for my marathon run the following day. I suspect that the attitude of the Downing Street authorities probably knocked a few minutes off my time in the marathon which was 4 hours 43 minutes- it would have been quicker but I had to do a 'Paula Radcliffe', but I used the Portaloo at mile 20. The atmosphere was brilliant, I got into a habit of singing Englebert Humperdink's "Please Release Me" around the course, which raised some smiles. I also had many fellow runners coming up to me to support this worthy cause having seen the TV interview. So far we have raised almost £3000 for Amnesty (and anyone who hasn't already can donate at www.justgiving.com/running4justice) as well as raised the profile of the ongoing situation in Guantanamo and I am extremely grateful for all the journalists who have covered this story in UK and Ireland. Meanwhile, I have another challenge...I promised my wife ages ago, I would fix that garden fence. Any of you who know my DIY skills, really know that is a challenge! Dr David Nicholl, 40, is a consultant neurologist at Queen Elizabeth Hospital and City Hospital, Birmingham.....he promises never to dress like this at work! Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Amnesty International UK Section Charitable Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. So please sponsor me (and write to your MP) now! Many thanks for your support. Yours sincerely Dr David Nicholl (born in Belfast, works in Birmingham, runs anywhere!) firstname.lastname@example.com

It is in places like Judge Mark Solomon's workers' compensation courtroom in Brooklyn that lingering questions about the health consequences of the Sept. 11 attack on the World Trade Center are fought over day after day.
Workers take seats at one end of the dark wood table in front of Judge Solomon, their hands jittery, their ankles crossed nervously. Flanked by lawyers, they struggle to explain how they became sick, and in some cases unable to work, because of what happened in the days and weeks after the twin towers collapsed.
There is the asbestos worker who developed asthma after working on the enormous tangle of debris that was the trade center; the city employee who takes medications for her frayed nerves because of what she saw that day; the construction worker who sees her doctor every other week because, she says, her lungs were scarred by the dust at ground zero.
And there are people like Franklin Chandler, a 54-year-old bus driver from Washington Heights, who missed 10 months of work after 9/11. He came, over weeks and months of hearings and arguments, with his medical charts and expert testimony. His employer had challenged his account of how he had come down with a respiratory ailment that made it difficult or impossible to work.

Lakewood softball beats Lake Washington to keep season alive
Cougars play Sedro-Woolley for final state berth Friday night
LYNDEN — Kiana Smith hit a solo home run in the fifth inning and made a diving catch in foul territory down the third-base line to record the final out and Lakewood beat Lake Washington 3-2 to advance to the third-place game in the 2A District 1/2 softball tournament at Bender Fields on Friday. Hailey Malakowski limited the Kangaroos to just four hits in a complete-game victory. Lakewood faces Sedro-Woolley in the third-place game for the district's final state berth at 6:30 p.m. Friday night.

Make It So!
Sales management improves with effective business communication and employee empowerment
As you may remember, last March I built a column around one of the tag lines from TV's Project Runway, where at least once during each episode, mentor Tim Gunn exhorts the fledgling fashion designers/competitors to "Make it work!" This month, I'm hoping to motivate you toward better overall management of your business by quoting Jean Luc Picard, the captain of the starship Enterprise in Star Trek, The Next Generation, who regularly told his subordinates to "Make it so!"
Picard ran a good ship, and part of the key to his management success was to develop good people and then use their talents to the fullest. He didn't micro manage, and he didn't dominate every decision. In fact, his orders often followed a recommendation from a subordinate, very often solicited by Picard himself.
"Your recommendation, Mr. Worf?" — "Make it so!"
I think we're really talking about three issues here: 1) finding good people, 2) keeping good people, and 3) making life easier on you, the owner. Let's start with the "keeping" issue, and let's recognize that most peoples' level of job satisfaction has something to do with how valued they feel. Happy and productive employees say things like, "My boss listens," and "My boss trusts me." Unhappy and unproductive employees say things like, "My boss is never satisfied," and "My boss second guesses everything that I do." The bottom line here is that empowerment is a good thing with good people.
So here's a question—two questions actually: Do you listen and do you trust your employees? I'm hoping that the answer to the first question is always yes, and guessing that the answer to the second question is sometimes no. Having said that, I'm afraid that you don't always listen to your employees, and even when you do listen, you don't always communicate. That's what happens when both parties listen and understand what's been said.
That takes us back to trust and empowerment. In order to truly empower an employee, you have to trust his or her decision making abilities. The best way to build that trust is to explain the result you are looking for and then listen to your employee's proposed course of action. The first few cases may require further discussion until you're both on the same page, but the more you communicate in the early stages of empowerment, the more likely it is that you'll approve of—and benefit from—all the later decisions.
Think of it this way. The second best case scenario in business is probably to have employees who will do a thorough and conscientious job when you tell them exactly what you want them to do. The best case scenario is to have employees who don't need you to tell them exactly what to do—employees who are truly capable of managing themselves and/or managing others toward the desired results. Not everyone can do that, though, and almost no one can do that without training and accountability.
Training and Accountability
I see a lot of the worst case scenario in my consulting work—employees who don't do a thorough and conscientious job when they're told exactly what to do. I also see a lot of employees who are being managed by osmosis, and that doesn't work! The First Stage of Management is to hire good people, and I'll come back to that in a moment. The Second Stage of Management is to train those good people. And please understand that training means more than just teaching someone how to do an estimate in PrintSmith or how to run a machine. At its highest level, training encompasses everything an employee needs to know in order to be a happy and productive part of your organization. If you think that will happen by osmosis, you're really kidding yourself.

Barba was arrested on Feb. 16, coincidentally one day after the murder of Zapata in Mexico. Federal sources tell Local 2 the ATF's Houston division was informed on Feb. 25, 2011, that the gun purchased in Beaumont by Riendfliesh was found at Zapata's murder.
"The drug cartels operate on both sides of the border," U.S. Rep. Ted Poe said. "People who think drug cartel crime stops at the border really are living in Never Neverland."
Poe said this entire investigation highlights a point has been trying to impress upon some of his colleagues in Washington for years.
"It is more than a border security issue," said Poe. "It's a national security issue. That's what this is all about, the drug cartels coming into the United States any way they can."
Poe said he will continue pushing for more federal resources to be devoted to the southern border.

Ok, just mixed in the supplied DMSO with the T-Gel and added 12 grams each to two bottles of it. My problem is the smell of garlic!!! Already been pointed out to me by co-workers so I have to do something. Don't really like the idea of throwing out almost two full bottles and starting over. So, did a search on DMSO and found two suggestions:
1) Parsley Oil
2) Scented Oil (e.g. tangerine, etc.) added to the t-gel.
Wanted to get some feedback from those that have tried either and what results they have had as well as the amounts used.
Thanks a bunch!!!!

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
Career Services: I haven't attempted to transfer credits to another school.
C A+F Campus Resources: The facilities are nice, some like the library are a little outdated, but overall they are decent facilities offering a good variety of student-geared activities.
C A+F Campus Resources: The network would be alright, although I cannot get my computer to work on the network without installing some complicated software that my computer won't accept.
C A+F Academic Experience: There are quite a few classes that are geared toward my major of elementary education, and they seem fairly accessible.
D A+F Academic Experience: The school is sort of like a glorified high school. The teachers expect very little out of most of their students, and there is little or no value put on good grades in the school. There are some students that care about their grades, but most just want to pass with a C if they're lucky.
C A+F Overall Experience: I have learned some things, and the school is highly affordable, but overall, if I could choose a school that was only a little more expensive and had people that actually care about the grades they get.
C A+F Online Courses: I took a lab online, which is alright, it wasn't that difficult, and the site was decently easy to manage. The online grading system is buggy and difficult to view and use, as was told to me by a few teachers, and it was also difficult to get in touch with my teacher online.
C A+F Academic Flexibility: As far as transferring goes, the teachers are pretty flexible, although you have to get the homework done when it is assigned generally. I have never transferred credits, but the teachers are willing to work with you to understand the material generally speaking.
D A+F Student Body: There are a few hardworking students, but the majority of students only want to pass under the radar and pass with a C if possible. They don't really care if they pass their classes, as long as they get their degree and leave school.
C A+F Tuition & Financial Aid: There are very few scholarships available if you only have good grades. You must either be involved in sports, or involved in a plethora of other activities to qualify for scholarships.
C A+F Facilities: The facilities are alright, sometimes a little outdated, but otherwise good.
C A+F Overall Experience: I like this school, most of the staff is nice and its a quiet campus. I would definatly choose it because its close to home too.
B A+F Student Body: I see a lot of different ethnic groups, but here we mostly have rednecks it seems.
Online Courses: Im not taking any online courses at this time
D A+F Academic Experience: I do not like the class I am in, im in auto collision and of course im a girl and found out my teacher is kind of sexist. and I get headaches from everything in their, I just don't like the environment as much as I did in highschool.
Academic Experience: im only in one class, so only one proffessor
B A+F Campus Resources: They have two pools, a decent athletic center, good size gyms, and a rec room that is a fun environment. and their library is awesome!!!
B A+F Campus Resources: I can always get on my laptop and look up all my stuff, and the connection is quick and simple, but best of all free!!
B A+F Academic Flexibility: im only in one class at the moment, from 7 am to 2 pm. then I have 3 hours to go to work, so its ok.
C A+F Tuition & Financial Aid: it is a little costly, but compared to other schools i'd say that its worth the money.
B A+F Career Services: the counselor I went to really helped me sort out my interests so I could change my major.
Campus Resources: I haven't had to deal with this.
Career Services: I have not used them.
A A+F Online Courses: My online classes fit perfectly into what's going on in my life right now. I'm glad they were available to take online.
B A+F Tuition & Financial Aid: The financial aid I am receiving is great & will help me to complete my studies. I just wish the Mechanical Maintenance program was more organized.

Arlington Cinema & Drafthouse
Ice-cold beers and second-run films at bargain-basement prices? Who could resist that? Not many people.
Ice-cold beers and second-run films at bargain-basement prices? Who could resist that? Not many people.
In a tiny hamlet of SW Virginia, formerly known as Maces Spring(today part of Hiltons), you'll find one of the hallowed birthplaces of mountain music. The Carter Family Fold continues the musical legacy begun by the talented Carter family back in 1927.
With shows almost every night of the week, Iota is the best venue for live music in Clarendon's music strip. Bands span genres; folk, reggae, traditional Irish and Southern rock are all distinct possibilities. Tickets are available at the door only (no advance sales) and this place packs 'em in (the seating is first come, first served).
A stone's throw from many Rosslyn hotels, this posh pool hall isn't your average billiards club. There's no stale-beer-and-cigarette stink here, where spaghetti lights form constellations on the ceiling and columns are painted like palm trees. Tiki heads and bars painted with silver glitter complete the picture.
Wire-rimmed glasses and black turtlenecks may be the uniform at this sophisticated jazz venue, located in the back of the 219 restaurant. The downstairs lounge boasts quaint French Quarter Victorian decor, which is appropriate for the swinging piano, saxophone and bluesy jazz performances. The crowd is a bit older and if the music is good, the scene is pleasantly sedate.
Known as 'America's Legendary Music Hall,' this is the DC area's premier venue for folk, country, Celtic and bluegrass music. The talent that graces the stage is reason enough to come, but the venue is pretty great too: it sort of looks like a warehouse that collided with an army of LSD-savvy muralists. Located north of Old Town Alexandria off Glebe Rd.
Occupying almost an entire block just east of Clarendon Metro, Whitlow's on Wilson has something for everyone: burgers, brunch and comfort food on the menu; happening happy hours and positive pick-up potential; plus 12 brews on tap, a pool table, jukebox, live music and an easygoing atmosphere. It's a favorite with singles.
Sip a lovely latte next to jars of strong-smelling beans imported from Indonesia and Ethiopia, bang out your play on your laptop (or procrastinate with the free wi-fi), check out the cute nerds at the other tables and reach caffeinated nirvana at this very hip indie cafe. Croissants and cookies add to the buzz.
Life explodes on Friday nights at the Floyd Country Store . Every Friday starting at 6:30pm, $4 gets you four bluegrass bands in four hours and the chance to watch happy crowds nod along to regional heritage. No smokin', no drinkin', but plenty of dancin' (of the jig-and-tap style) is the order of the day.
The food is kind of lame and the beer selection weak, but the live bluegrass (from 8:30pm Friday and Saturday) hits the spot at the well-worn Tiffany Tavern. It gets a little rough and a lot raucous on the best nights, when Yuengling on tap, mandolin and fiddle equal hours of roots-music magic.
A gorgeous ballroom done up to look like a big band-era dance hall, the Ballroom is a NoVa cornerstone that attracts throngs of young professionals coming to hear emerging local artists, DJs and big names on national tours. The upstairs deck is perfect for lingering over a sunset Cosmopolitan.
Buckets of Guinness lubricate the O'Connors and McDonoughs at Arlington's favorite Irish pub. The sidewalk seating draws a lunchtime crowd for shepherd's pie and fish and chips, while the verdant Irish grass-green interior attracts an evening crowd for cold drafts and live tunes.
Gas lamps out front welcome tourists and locals into this spacious taproom for frosty brews, raw-bar delights and nightly dinner specials. Inside, the vibe is equally inviting: a wide bar, heavy wooden furniture and exposed brick provide equal parts retro-and-warm atmosphere.

Police: Infant hurt in car crash on western NY road
Posted at: 01/31/2013 10:40 AM
By: Associated Press | WHEC.com
Authorities say a one-month-old baby is hospitalized after the car the child was riding in crashed and overturned on a western New York road.
State Police say troopers who arrived at the scene of Wednesday's late-night crash in Lockport in Niagara County say they found a car on its roof with no one inside or outside the vehicle.
Troopers say two adult males and a woman, along with the infant, were found at a nearby convenience store. All were taken by ambulance to local hospitals. Police say the baby is in critical but stable condition at Women and Children's Hospital in Buffalo.
Police charged the man driving the car with driving while intoxicated under Leandra's Law because of the baby in the vehicle. The provision makes DWI a felony if a passenger is under 16.

Works of the Flesh in Galatians 5–6
The same concatenation of themes occurs in Galatians 5–6 as in 1 Corinthians 6, namely, the death and resurrection of Christ which is opposed to the fleshy or sexual nature of humans:
For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are plain: immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like.…But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, against such there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. (5:13–24)
In my view these verses make quite clear the connection of the "paranetic" passage in the last two chapters of Galatians to the first four chapters of the letter.[23] I think they strongly support the point of view that this part of the letter comes to correct a possible (and very plausible) misunderstanding of Paul's views as expressed in the rest of the text. Paul has throughout the letter been presenting a ringing call to Christian freedom in the spirit, as opposed to the Jewish bondage to the norms of a Law. What could be more expectable than that some people will (mis)understand his doctrine as a libertine one—as, I would claim, the Corinthians in fact did?[24] Paul now provides the answer to that possible misreading of his intention in quite a brilliant piece of argument. Paul's very dualism provides the irrefutable answer to this confusion. Law has been associated throughout with the flesh, and its opposite, Christian freedom, with the spirit. Therefore, freedom in the spirit cannot possibly permit libertinism, which belongs entirely to the realm of the flesh. Paul's denunciation of the Law, on the one hand, and libertinism, on the other, both issue equally logically from his promotion of the spirit over the flesh! How ironic it would be were they now to allow that very freedom to be an opportunity for sins of the flesh to abound, thus giving in to the flesh even more drastically than they would by observing, say, the law of circumcision. Paul is thus not at all contradicting the message of the first four chapters of the letter but rather confirming it. If you are truly in the spirit, then you do not need Law, the Law which belongs wholly to the realm of the flesh.[25]
This passage, once more, presents certain striking interpretative gaps. The most obvious is the leap in verse 18 from the discourse on libertinism or licentiousness in the previous verses to being "under the Law." On my reading, in this passage Paul is guarding against an obvious danger of misunderstanding aroused by his discourse. As I have shown in detail in the previous chapter, Galatians 3:12 amounts to a disavowal of Leviticus 18 as the guide to Christian living. Leviticus 18:5 reads "He who does them lives by them, " which Paul understands to mean: One who does the commandments lives by them and not by faith. But Paul argues: Since we know from Habbakuk that the righteous live by faith, he who lives by them and not by faith is not righteous—is not justified. Christians, therefore, no longer live by "them." What is crucial to remember is that Leviticus 18:5 is the introduction to the catalogue of forbidden sexual connections. One could, therefore, very easily imagine Paul at the end of the letter becoming aware of the enormous danger for (mis)interpretation that his letter could produce. If he has repudiated, as it were, Leviticus 18, does it not follow that its provisions are no longer valid and sexual license is permitted? That is precisely the conclusion that some Corinthian Christians seem to have reached, and it is what Paul seeks to counter in chapters 5 and 6 of Galatians. It is, therefore, most attractive to read the passage just quoted as carrying its obvious sense in which desires and passions of the flesh are just what would be referred to in a modern use of these terms, namely, sexual desire and passion. This interpretation affords an elegant bridge over the apparent gap between verses 17 and 18, in the light of Romans 7. We now understand precisely the connection between the "desires of the flesh," and being "under the Law," for it is the Law which produces the desires of the flesh and thus the works of the flesh through its insistence on the bearing of children, leading inexorably to passion and thus to licentiousness, jealousy, and the rest.[26]
An objection has been raised to the sexual interpretation of "the desires of the flesh," ἐπιθυμίαν σαρκὸς, because the itemized "works of the flesh," έργα τῆς σαρκός, are not primarily works of sexual immorality. The point is well taken, of course, but not, I think, decisive. We must distinguish between the desires of the flesh and the works of the flesh, that is, the results of those desires. The desires of the flesh are indeed what they seem to be, namely, sexual desire, but the works of the flesh are the social outcome of such desire: "immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like." Lest this sound far-fetched, the following parallel from a first-century text is unambiguous: "But to the spirit of perversity belong a greedy mind and slackness of hands in serving righteousness, evil and lying, pride and a haughty heart, deceit and cruel treachery; hypocrisy in plenty, shortness of temper but full measure of folly and zeal in insolence; deeds abominable in a spirit of lust and ways of uncleanness in the service of impurity." [27] This text provides an excellent parallel to Galatians 5, for here we see also how the spirit of lust leads not only to sexual immorality but to deceit, cruelty, treachery, and even shortness of temper, a list quite similar in spirit to the works of the flesh that Paul adduces. Note also that the same concatenation of themes occurs in 1 Corinthians 6, where Paul begins his discourse attacking civil strife and jealousy and seamlessly segues into a discussion of sexual immorality. In other words, those who do not crucify their flesh with its passions and desires are those who produce a society within which not only the obvious immorality, impurity, and licentiousness occur but also idolatry and sorcery—perhaps Paul means the idolatry and sorcery of love charms—as well as enmity, strife, and jealousy.[28] Those, however, who are unmoved by eros are capable of creating a society of agape. Philo also provides an excellent parallel to this idea when he describes first a paradisal condition in which men spend their lives in contemplation before the creation of woman but then writes, "Love supervenes, brings together and fits into one the divided halves, as it were, of a single living creature, and sets up in each of them a desire for fellowship with the other with a view to the production of their like. And this desire begat likewise bodily pleasure, that pleasure which is the beginning of wrongs and violation of the law, the pleasure for the sake of which men bring on themselves the life of mortality and wretchedness in lieu of that of immortality and bliss." [29] There is, therefore, no reason to discredit the obvious meaning of "gratifying desires of the flesh" as referring to sexual desire.
The theme is carried further in the continuation in chapter 6, "For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life" (6:8), where we find precisely the same metaphorical opposition that Paul uses in Romans 7:4–5. One who sows to the flesh by having children will reap corruption, i.e., the corruption of death, for flesh is mortal. One who sows to the spirit will, however, escape corruption in eternal life. "Sowing," of course, as a metaphor for sexual activity is commonplace.
I think it is a strong conclusion, therefore, that the "desires of the flesh" in Galatians 5–6 are also to be understood as sexual. Christians are freed from sexuality. The final and ultimate fruit of the spirit listed in Galatians 5:23 is ἐγκράτεια, and given the interpretation that I have offered here we can give this word its full technical meaning of self-control and withdrawal from sexuality.[30]

SOURCE NC Eminent Domain Law Firm
The NC Eminent Domain Law Firm is offering complimentary case evaluations for Gaston County residents whose land will be taken for the South New Hope Road widening project.
GASTONIA, N.C., Sept. 30. 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the Gaston Gazette, motorists are "pining for progress" regarding the four major road projects in Gastonia ("City to begin road-widening projects," May 14, 2013).
However, as the NC Eminent Domain Law Firm points out, these projects come about at a price that is often very dear to home and business owners.
"Lopping off 10 to 30 feet of someone's front yard can mean the difference between a major highway being at a comfortable distance from someone's home or right at their front door," said NC Eminent Domain attorney Stan Abrams. "Home and business owners have a lot to think about when it comes to these negotiations. So we're happy to offer complimentary advice, for such an important project."
Abrams said widening South New Hope Road to five lanes from Burtonwood Drive to Armstrong Park Drive/Garrison Boulevard/SR 2466 seems to be next on Gastonia's list of projects and property owners will soon be receiving offers from the government, if they haven't already.
Both Abrams and his colleague, Jason Campbell, are former North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) attorneys.
According to Campbell, "In cases like these, the DOT's offers can often be much too low because appraisers are valuing a chunk of properties at the same time and may not recognize all the factors that may affect a single property. That's where we may be able to help."
Campbell says their firm uses what they call the "Second Check Method," in which property owners may be able to collect the government's first offer, without technically accepting it, and then continue negotiations. This allows home and business owners to get immediate compensation they may need for relocation and other purposes, but continue negotiations for the "true value" of their property.
For more information on the South New Hope Road widening project or to take advantage of their complimentary case evaluations, visit their website at: www.nc-eminent-domain.com/south-new-hope-road-widening-gastonia
A division of the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin, the NC Eminent Domain Law Firm is dedicated solely to representing property owners throughout North Carolina, who may be impacted by eminent domain law. The NC Eminent Domain Law Firm is led by attorneys Stan Abrams and Jason Campbell, both of whom previously worked as Assistant Attorney Generals for the North Carolina Department of Justice in the Transportation Section, where they litigated condemnation cases for the NCDOT. They have 19 years of combined experience working exclusively on eminent domain cases. The Law Offices of James Scott Farrin has the legal resources of 32 attorneys and is based in Durham, North Carolina, with offices throughout the state to serve its clients.

In Brief
- Archaeologists long thought the first Americans were the Clovis people, who were said to have reached the New World some 13,000 years ago from northern Asia.
- But fresh archaeological finds prove that humans reached the Americas thousands of years before that.
- These discoveries, along with insights from genetics and geology, have prompted reconsideration of where these pioneers came from, when they arrived and what route they took into the New World.

In the sweltering heat of an early July afternoon, Michael R. Waters clambers down into a shadowy pit where a small hive of excavators edge their trowels into an ancient floodplain. A murmur rises from the crew, and one of the diggers gives Waters, an archaeologist at the Center for the Study of the First Americans at Texas A&M University, a dirt-smeared fragment of blue-gray stone called chert. Waters turns it over in his hand, then scrutinizes it under a magnifying loupe. The find, scarcely larger than a thumbnail, is part of an all-purpose cutting tool, an ice age equivalent of a box cutter. Tossed away long ago on this grassy Texas creek bank, it is one among thousands of artifacts here that are pushing back the history of humans in the New World and shining rare light on the earliest Americans.
Waters, a tall, rumpled man in his mid-fifties with intense blue eyes and a slow, cautious way of talking, does not look or sound like a maverick. But his work is helping to topple an enduring model for the peopling of the New World. For decades scientists thought the first Americans were Asian big-game hunters who tracked mammoths and other large prey eastward across a now submerged landmass known as Beringia that joined northern Asia to Alaska. Arriving in the Americas some 13,000 years ago, these colonists were said to have journeyed rapidly overland along an ice-free corridor that stretched from the Yukon to southern Alberta, leaving behind their distinctive stone tools across what is now the contiguous U.S. Archaeologists called these hunters the Clovis people, after a site near Clovis, N.M., where many of their tools came to light.
