Um, the site's still live
They've given up one domain name, but the site's still live at this address:
Conspiraloon Glenn Beck has lost, but also won, a case to win control of a domain he believed was infringing his copyright. The Fox News reporter lost the case, but won back the web address anyway. Florida resident Isaac Eiland-Hall had registered the domain glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1990.com. The website, now …
They've given up one domain name, but the site's still live at this address:
... that Glenn Beck doesn't walk around with his own dick up his ass, but I've never seen proof that he doesn't, so maybe he does, who knows?
But he is an asshat, and that's undeniable.
Not sure if it's the same Glenn Beck, but here's the police report:
Streisand effect at work, e.g. :
"Recently the web has been abuzz with allegations that popular fox news pundit, Glenn Beck, raped and murdered a young girl in 1990..."
Then another joins in
"Personally, I think a gifted lawyer could probably get him cleared of any charges. But the fact that he has yet to refute that he, Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990 is troubling"
25100 others search results.... of similar vein.
Personally, I like to keep an open mind of the subject, because closed-minded people hate America.
Even Glenn Beck himself denies being a reporter, and he isn't even on Fox News at the times when it is providing news (all other times it is opinion, as Fox themselves have pointed out).
He is a complete idiot, as this case proves, since I wouldn't have heard anyhting about it if he hadn't blown it all out of proportion.
"because closed-minded people hate America."
Eeh I think you must be thinking of a different country, never have I thought of America as open minded
"Beck took the case to the World Intellectual Property Organisation claiming trademark rights on this (sic) own name."
Can anyone claim trademark rights on their own name? How are they enforced? Should new parents be checking with WIPO to ensure their offspring has a unique name? Do you have to change your name if you infringe someone else's trademark?
I don't think there isn't any proof. If there weren't anything to it, he would have been vindicated by now.
Sorry, I mean *shouldn't* happen to a nicer bloke.
...has he commented on the very serious allegation that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990?
I don't believe he has. And until he goes on record to officially deny that he did so, how on earth can we trust him?
Did Glenn Beck rape then murder a young girl in 1990? Or did he murder then rape her? I've heard both accusations. Which was it? Or did he actually murder two young girls in 1990, murdering then raping one, and raping then murdering the other. I think it fair that the facts be put on the table. I do wonder why Fox News continue to employ an alleged serial rapist and murderer. What else might they be hiding?
He has never registered/owned the site, so how can he have "won back" control/ownership?
we don't have fox news, so I know nothing of Glenn Beck and why people are saying these things about him. I know, I'll google his name and see what comes up...
That arrest record is in monospaced courier, but they had proportional typefaces in 1990, so that Glenn Beck rape arrest is likely fake. Or maybe it was planted by Glenn Beck supporters to lead others down a blind trail. I don't know the answer, I'm just asking.
This site also wonders about this:
"The local media attention around the case intensified after Durham's Channel 4 ran an interview with Gwendolyn Sutton, the officer who responded to the rape call. In the interview, Officer Sutton claimed "the victim told me the rapist whispered the phrase 'I'm doing because I love my country' repeatedly as he cried and raped her."
But that rape, the victim was ALIVE! So that arrest record can't be proof that Glenn Beck MURDERED the victim, he must have left her alive!
Although in the interests of balance the site also debunks the proof that Glenn Beck did not commit the rape/murder by disproving an alibi.
"As badly as Beck fans want to believe Mr. Stefano's cute little tale, don't be fooled. Mr. Stefano is not telling the whole truth. While there is no questioning the legitimacy of his photo, the date he is claiming to have taken the photo is clearly erroneous."
What I don't understand is, am I the only one asking these questions? Is there a conspiracy among the right wing media to suppress this? That would like, what Goebbels did in Nazi Germany!
I laughed out load when I saw that satire site. Perfect sublimation of what Beck spews...and his audience swallows.
While you may wish him away, Beck is making about $20M/year shoveling what he's shoveling...amazing.
Is glennbeckrapedandmurderedayounggirlin1991.com taken?
I don't care who it is, but if someone smears your character with no proof you have to defend yourself. I know, many say just do nothing and everyone knows its bogus anyways so why bother.
But if someone or group just made up a story with zero fact checking, I would be out there telling the world!! Also, to me, if you don't defend yourself maybe people think it is true so you got to defend yourself with allegations that are NOT true.
I don't know about you, but I'm tired of bogus claims from ideologs. I think it is easier to smear someones name rather than defend your beliefs and it seems hard for these ideologs to respect others who have a different opinion.
A lot of the reactions I see on news sites are in this style: "This is a smear campaign posing as political satire."
Which, interestingly, sounds like a Glenn Beck tactic.
Maybe it is more correctly described as a "meta-smear campaign posing as political satire of a smear campaign posing as political satire"? Or something like that.
Beer icon, because I have the flu, and haven't had a pint for a week. :(
I love all of the partisan, anti Beck comments. Predictable, uninformed, pathetic...and perhaps a dash envious. Beck rules, deal with it...you Stewart loving wusses...
"he isn't even on Fox News at the times when it is providing news"
Whoa, wait a minute. They provide *news*? Since when? Someone had better hide it quick before Rupert finds out and gets all upset!
Unfortunately for those who feel that Glen Beck received true justice, the irony of this charade is that most Americans who listen to and accept everything out of Glen Beck's mouth as "truth" and "reasonable" will only conclude that the WIPO, Democrats, all other nations and peoples - including Jews, Muslims, Buddhists and "non-fundamental Christians" are conspiring to denigrate their beloved hero.
It has never been a question of whether Glen Beck - as well as Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh are idiots, these guys have proven it conclusively by all scientific and "rational" criteria. The fact that such insanity and stupidity from them continues to attain loyal followings is the sad and pathetic part.
But, that is America, where "everyone" has these wonderful freedoms - to say and do anything, no matter how asinine, and become rich and famous for it.
W. Anderson
The beauty of that site was that it indeed worded the accusation in a manner that Glenn Beck often uses during what most would call his less lucid moments.
"I have no evidence of this but.." precedes much of what he says, which is usually followed by some utterly insane statement during which he will be balling his eyes out and weepily claiming he loves his country.
His most notorious opinion was that FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency that is sent to disaster zones to give emergency relief, has changed its purpose to something significantly more sinister on the order of Democrats and President Obama. Instead of, say, giving emergency aid to hurricane and flood victims, it now runs concentration camps for right wing Americans. This is a delightful twist on the fact they provided mobile homes to the displaced victims of hurricane Katrina. Obviously providing shelter was a cover for creating concentration camps to house right wing protesters - and thanks to Glenn Beck our saviour, we can now all see the plan for what it is, an evil plot of the new devil worshiping, Muslim President.
Fox "News" itself is nothing more than the right wing propaganda engine of the Republican Party. During the Bush administration they were famous for reporting White House statements as news, ie. the White House would issue a press release and Fox News would report the contents of the release as news, without reference to its origins.
The channel is now in a frenzy of right wing propaganda directed at the Democrats, in particular President Obama, and are responsible for these so-called Tea Bagging protests. Amid denials of collusion, they will end a news segment giving the time, date and location of these protests and mysteriously be able to report live from all of them despite the so-called spontaneity of the event, often inflating the number of protesters present by 10s of thousands.
Naturally we are all having a lot of fun with this, I myself have nearly been fired after falling about laughing during a meeting when my female boss said she wanted to go tea bagging.
Of course those of us enjoying such moments do see the irony given the right's hatred of all things gay. Naturally Glenn Beck is a proud Tea Bagger himself, which is just too good to be true.
One could always hope the odious, lying little shit would have an epiphany of some sort, but nah.
The only time I have listened to Glenn Beck is if he happens to be on the TV at the bar I am in. I have always found his manner of speaking to be rather annoying ( although not as bad as Rachel Maddow). Now after all of these comments I am going to have actually listen for a change and see why most of the posters are so upset.
@Reb Bren Do a search on El Reg for the fight between Dell computers and a Spaniard named Dell.
@ AC You stated "hat I don't understand is, am I the only one asking these questions? Is there a conspiracy among the right wing media to suppress this? That would like, what Goebbels did in Nazi Germany!"
I really wish people who consider the Nazi's right wing would take the time to learn some history. Germany and WWII was a big hobby of mine in high school. The NAZI's were very much a case of so far right they were leftist. They were very much like Stalin and the communists just calling it a different name.
But can he prove that he did not commit this crime? This question has never been definitely answered. Just like the made up doubt over Obama's birth certificate. We are still waiting for proof. Remember, the true arch conservative does not believe in "Innocent Until Proven Guilty". With this crowd guilt is determined by the relative social rank of the accuser.
Conspiraloon made me laugh. I think you just invented the perfect word to describe that batshit insane purveyor of bullshit.
Did Glenn Beck rape then murder a young girl in 1990?
I have no idea. Personally I don't care.
But I *do* find it funny that he gets cross about people using his tactics against him.
He's a scumbag. End of.
Funniest thing I have read in ages was the sur-reply from the respondents lawyer.
Stick with it until page 3 (no peeking ahead, now) and then just read it through for some gems. Laugh out loud funny, more so because this was part of an official filing.
"Or did he murder then rape her?"
So that's necrophilia added to the rap sheet then. With a record like that I wouldn't be surprised to find animal sex in there somewhere.
<goes to check>
Yup, "glennbeckisasheepshaggingperv.com" is available* so it could easily be true** with a few minutes work.
*Although I checked that using Network Solutions, so it probably won't be for a while (El Reg articles passim).
**For a given value of "true" where Truth is defined as="it sez so on teh intuhwebs".
The "smear campaign" mirrors Beck's tactics: making up shit and then wondering why those in question don't deny it and offer no proof against his outrageous claims.
Here, this might help you get it: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/satire
It's practically in the dictionary by now. We couldn't have made it through the decade without it.
Let's teach the debate.
Has he stopped murdering & raping teens? Yes/No.
Trying to justify your right wing position by pretending Hitler was a left wing politician is pathetic.
Us socialists get Stalin. You fascists get Hitler.
Tough titties if you don't like it.
And anyone who believes what he says is an extra limp tosser.
Seriously ... I consider myself a fairly mainstream, if slightly more informed and better educated than most, middle America kind of guy, but until this article on ElReg (a Brit web site, no less), I had never heard of this clown. Maybe I should get out more ... Or maybe I should count my blessings because I have two decent news stations here in the Bay Area, and one of them runs in place of what would otherwise be Faux News ...
They don't actually mention his name, but its all him, all parody, awesome.

Retro Beauty Secrets with Suzanne Walsh - Face Masks!
Thursday, 15 October 2009
Suzanne is going to demonstrate how the women of the 1940s kept their skin aglow when rations were enforced in Ireland with two homemade face masks.
Women are not spending like they used to when it comes to beauty products. Recession - busting beauty tips have been hot-topics lately and with this in mind we decided to look back to when times were really tight during the forties. We want to see what secret beauty tips they used back then and if they could still be used today.
Suzanne Walsh- Retro Beauty Queen
2008 and 2009 has seen Suzanne's well respected and trusted role in the Beauty industry flourish with regular TV and personal appearances keeping her very much in demand.
Suzanne Walsh previously worked in the UK operating her own hair & beauty salon. She worked as a beauty therapist for Channel 4,s reality TV series, The Salon appearing in both the first and second series, which attracted up to 3.6 million viewers. Suzanne is credited with being the viewer's choice when the public was given the opportunity to vote a member of staff from the first series back into the second series.
During 2005, in conjunction with her sister, Suzanne established a thriving beauty business in Ireland which is regularly featured in the media for its unique and excellent client care and professionalism. They added another salon called 'Pure Beauty' in Prosperous in 2007.
Suzanne has coupled her knowledge in the beauty industry with excellent writing skills to become a well respected Beauty Journalist writing for The Irish Independent, Evening Herald and various magazines.
No stranger to TV, Suzanne recently took part in RTE 1s Celebrity Jigs N Reels and is the resident beauty specialist on 'The Afternoon Show' and has appeared on TV3 am, Celebrity Ready Steady Cook as well as on At the Races for the Cheltenham Festival and Sky Sports. Suzanne featured several times on The Marianne Finnucane Show on RTE Radio 1.
Famous clients of hers have included Boy George, Coronation Street's Julie Goodyear, d'side, Kerry Mc Fadden, Bridget Nielson, Frankie Dettori, Tony McCoy, Amanda Brunker and many more.
A fun-loving character, Suzanne oozes down-to-earth charm mixed with a sense of knowing her own mind. Suzanne enjoys travel, outdoor activities, golf and also admits a passion for horses, horseracing and all things equestrian having been introduced to the scene through her family at a very young age.
Suzanne's Qualifications
B.T.E.C National Diploma in Beauty Therapy Health & Fitness
IIHHT in Aromatherapy.
IIHHT in Reflexology.
NUI MAYNOOTH Certificate in Teacher Training & Continuing
Suzanne recently completed her NUI Maynooth Teacher Training Diploma to ensure her deliverance of classes are of the highest standard. Suzanne's enthusiasm for working with teenagers and vivacious personality coupled with her professional qualifications & Celebrity Beautician status make her the ideal candidate to present Beauty Day Camps.
Suzanne is currently studying at IPA Institute of Public Management for a BA Hons Degree in Public Management, she loves to keep fit, loves walking and kick boxing.
Models: Lisa (22) & Michelle (22)
Some background info on 1940s beauty.
As Ireland wasn't directly involved in the war, rations here weren't as strict as they were in the North of Ireland, in the UK or in the USA. Things like milk and eggs were quite plentiful whereas even these were rationed in the north (at times eggs were rationed to one a week!)
Some of the most Iconic movie stars in history came from the 1940s, when times were tight and beauty products were hard to come by. Think Vivien Leigh, Heddy Lemarr, Ingrid Bergman, Rita Hayworth, Lana Turner, Ginger Rogers and Lauren Bacall. All icons of the movie industry to this day.
Most women though, didn't have the major film studios to provide them with the tools to make themselves look a million dollars, yet they still aspired to achieving the standards of beauty that these stars set.
Ladies became particularly inventive during the 40s, using gravy browning in place of nylon stockings when these became scarce- can you imagine the smell?!
As stockings were limited, ladies also used to draw lines up the back of their legs to make it look as though they were wearing stockings.
Many ladies were prepared to scrimp on their food rations in order to swap with family members etc to get their quota of supplies to be able to keep up appearances.
One of the major things that women did at home was maintain their skin with items from the pantry. Today we look at some simple home - made treatments to have your skin glowing this winter.
Model 1- Lisa Walsh:
Suzanne will open up Lisa's pores with a hot face cloth before applying cleanser or scrub.
Suzanne will demonstrate how to make your own hot towels with hot water and face cloths. Lisa will hold towel to her face, opening up her pores while Suzanne mixes up the scrub.
Suzanne's Forties Facial scrub:
. Oatmeal (porridge) and milk.
. Porridge for its soothing properties and also the friction effect of the oats.
. Milk for its lactic acid properties which dissolve dead skin cells and smoothes out the surface of the skin.
Suzanne will apply the mask in the correct fashion to Lisa's face.
Model 2:- Michelle Lynch
Michelle will be demonstrating Suzanne's face masks at work. Suzanne will demo mixing up two masks one for dry skin and one for oily skin.
The oily mask has been applied to Aisling's t-zone and the nourishing mask everywhere else.
Mask 1: Oily Skins:
Baking soda (absorbs excess oils), water (helps hydrate oil rich but water dry skin) and egg white whisked up till frothy (egg white tightens pores and inhibits bacterial growth great for skin breakouts).
Another tip for oily skin is to use Milk of Magnesia as an oil inhibiter. It really should only be used if you have very oily skin and if there is a lot of shine. Simply dab a little on the oily area and pop your oil free moisturiser on top.
Mask 2:- Dry skins:
Honey (moisturising, soothing and repairing properties), egg yolk (high in Vit A great for reducing wrinkles) and porridge (healing and soothing)
Most of the items used in today's feature will be found in any household kitchen.

Dear Soapdom,
There is no way Sami and Lucas can be called "Days favorite couple" considering the growing number of fans who want EJ and Sami together. Sami and Lucas might be a popular couple for some; but they don't make the earth shake like EJ and Samantha do!
Days favorite couple is more likely to be Bo and Hope or John and Marlena altho many polls, etc., are coming up with a Sami/Lucas/EJ because of the current storylines. Not much weight can be given to them however since people tend to use various usernames and email addresses so they can vote for "their couple." It is probably realistic to say the viewers are close to being split 50/50 between the two.
Most of us realize this wedding will happen, and agree with it, but it's the AFTER the wedding we're focusing on!
The writers at Days, quite honestly, would be insane to ignore the pure magic of EJ and Sami. A pot of gold has literally landed in their laps, but it remains to be seen if they'll accept it or make the mistake of not going with this natural force.
As a long time environmental activist, I love the idea of promoting a Green wedding: and that is one of the reasons I feel the wedding will take place (the promotion of the earth friendly wedding is a great thing).
Again, however, we can only hope for a short marriage and the long term excitement that can only be EJ and Samantha!

Intel Core i7 4960X (Ivy Bridge E) Reviewby Anand Lal Shimpi on September 3, 2013 4:10 AM EST
- Posted in
- CPUs
- Intel
- Ivy Bridge
- Ivy Bridge-E
Final Words
I remember writing a tepid conclusion to my Sandy Bridge E review almost two years ago. At the time, both the LGA-2011 and LGA-1155 platforms were on the same architecture - Sandy Bridge. My conclusion ultimately boiled down to how much having 6 cores mattered to you. As LGA-2011 was the only way to get more than 4 cores in an Intel desktop system, if you needed the cores it was clearly the better option. For everyone else, the more affordable LGA-1155 route made more sense.
Today, the arrival of Ivy Bridge E does little to change that conclusion. In fact, compared to Sandy Bridge E, the IVB version only adds about 5% better performance, while shaving off around 20W under load. To further complicate matters, while SNB-E launched before Ivy Bridge, Ivy Bridge E shows up months after Haswell's debut for the rest of the desktop space. If you want Ivy Bridge E, you need to be comfortable with the fact that you're buying into an older architecture.
SNB-E (left) vs. IVB-E (right)
Although Haswell didn't break any records when it showed up on the desktop, there are definitely situations where it is clearly faster than even the fastest IVB-E SKU. Anything that doesn't make use of all six cores on a 4960X will likely be faster on a cheaper Haswell based 4770K. My guess is that this covers not only the overwhelming majority of the desktop market, but actually a good portion of the enthusiast desktop community as well.
The other downsides remain intact as well. Intel's X79 chipset remains very dated, even more so now that we have Z87 with Haswell. A fresh coat of paint and updated firmware isn't enough to hide the fact that you only get two 6Gbps SATA ports and no native USB 3.0 ports. All motherboard makers have worked around this by adding a plethora of 3rd party controllers to their motherboards, but I tend to prefer the native Intel solutions from a validation and compatibility standpoint. You also lose QuickSync support as there's no integrated GPU, although the two extra cores do help video transcoding go by a lot quicker.
In what I hope will be less than 22 months, Haswell E will likely fix many of these problems. Until that time comes, your decision is pretty simple. Ivy Bridge E picks up where Sandy Bridge E left off. If you have the money to spend and absolutely need any of the following:
1) More than 4 cores,
2) More than 4 DIMM slots,
3) More than 16 PCIe 3.0 lanes
...then Ivy Bridge E is your only option, and it's not a bad one at that. My biggest complaint about IVB-E isn't that it's bad; it's just that it could be so much more. With a modern chipset, an affordable 6-core variant (and/or a high-end 8-core option) and at least using a current gen architecture, this ultra high-end enthusiast platform could be very compelling. Unfortunately it's just not that today. I understand why (Xeon roadmaps and all), but it doesn't make me any happier about the situation. Instead we're left with the great option that is Haswell/Z87. If what you need falls outside of what Z87 can deliver then you're left with a decent, but very compromised (and pricey) alternative.

Rick83 - Tuesday, September 03, 2013 - linkIf you really want that number of cores, Ivy Bridge E5/E7 Xeons are going to deliver that, in the 150W power envelope. This is useful in the server market, but will only sell in homeopathic quantities in the desktop market. Still, you should be able to find them in retail around Christmas. Knock yourself out!
Really IB-E is a free product for Intel, which is the only reason it made it to market at all. They need the 6-core dies for the medium density servers anyway, which is where they actually make sense over SB-Xeons, due to the smaller power envelope/higher efficiency. The investment to turn that core into a consumer product on an existing platform is almost zero, short of a small marketing budget, and possibly a tiny bit of (re-)validation.
This was never a product designed for the enthusiast market, and is being shoe-horned into that position. Due to the smaller die Intel can probably make better margin over SB-E, which is the only reason to introduce this product in the sector anyway, and possibly to get some brand awareness going with the launch of a new flagship.
From an economical point of view it makes no sense for Intel to have an actual enthusiast platform. Haswell refresh will be unlikely to bring more cores either (and without the extra I/O they would be a bit hobbled, I imagine), so possibly with Skylake there will be a 6-core upper mainstream solution. Still unlikely from an economical point of view, as Intel would probably prefer sticking to two dies, and going 6/4 may not be economical, whereas selling 6-core CPUs as quads (as they do with 48xx) doesn't work that well in the part of the market that generates reasonable volume. Reply
f0d - Tuesday, September 03, 2013 - linkthe problem with xeon is that you cant overclock them so my 5ghz SBE would be close to as good as a 8/10 core xeon
i dont really care about why intel are not releasing high core count cpu's i just know i want them at a decent price ($1k and under) and overclockable - these 6 core ones just dont make the cut anymore
i just hate the direction cpu's are going with low power low core count highly integrated everythiing, 5 years ago i was dreaming of 8 core cpu's being standard about now but we still have 4 (6 with sbe) core cpu's as standard which blows and per core performance hasnt really changed much going from sandy bridge to haswell
i dont care about power and heat just give me the performance i want to encode highest quality handbrake movies in less than 24 hours.!! Reply
ShieTar - Tuesday, September 03, 2013 - link"All" you want is Intel to invest a massive development effort in order to produce for the first time an overclocking CPU with a TDP of around 200W, with silicone for which their business customers would pay 2k$ to 3k$, and sell it to you and the other 500 people in your niche for less than 1k$?
Intel already offer you a solution if you need more processing power than the enthusiast solution gives you: 2 socket workstation boards, 4 socket server boards, 60-core co-processor cards. Reply
f0d - Tuesday, September 03, 2013 - link2 socket is inefficient for my workloads
they could just release a xeon that is unlocked and let me do what i want with it - its not like the workstation/server guys would overclock so its not like intel would be losing any money
no development needed
2-3k? i can already buy 8 core SBE for 1k - why not let me oc that? Reply
wallysb01 - Tuesday, September 03, 2013 - linkMany would overclock when Intel is charging hundreds of dollars for just small GHz bumps. You won't seem the academic or large corporation clusters doing it, but the small businesses with just a handful of workstations? They might.
Look at the 2660 v2 2.2GHz at $1590 and the 2680 v2 2.8GHz at $1943. That's $353 for 600MHz. On a dual processor system its $700, then you have to pay the markups from those actually selling the computers (ie Dell/HP), which takes $700 to $1000 or more. One small little tweak and you're saving yourself $1000, while not stressing the system all that much (assuming you don't go crazy and try to get 3.5GHz from that 2.2GHz base chip). Reply
mapesdhs - Wednesday, September 04, 2013 - link
The catch though is that the mbds used for these systems don't have
BIOS setups which support oc'ing, and the people who use them aren't
generally experienced in such things. I know someone at a larger movie
company who said it'd be neat to be able to experiment with this,
especially an unlocked XEON, but in reality the pressures of time, the
scale of the budgets involved, the large number of systems used for
renderfarms, the OS management required, etc., all these issues mean
it's easier to just buy off the shelf units and scale as required (the
renderfarm at the company I'm thinking of has more than 7000 cores
total, mostly based on Dell blade servers) and management isn't that
interested in doing anything different or innovative/risky. It's easy
to think a smaller company might be more likely to try such a thing,
but in reality for a smaller company it would be a much larger
financial risk to do so. Bigger companies could afford to try it, but
aren't geared up for such ideas.
Btw, oc'ing a XEON is viable with single-socket mbds that happen to
support them and have chipsets which don't rely on the CPU multiplier
for oc'ing, eg. an X5570 on an Asrock X58 Extreme6 works ok (I have
one); the chip advantage is a higher TDP and 50% faster QPI compared to
a clock-comparable i7 950.
Sadly, other companies often don't bother supporting XEONs anyway;
Gigabyte does on some of its boards (X58A-UD3R is a good example) but
ASUS tends not to.
Some have posted about core efficiency and they're correct; I have a
Dell T7500 with two X5570s, but my oc'd 3930K beats it for highly
threaded tasks such as CB 11.5, and it's about 2X faster for single-
threaded ops. The 3930K's faster RAM probably helps aswell (64GB
DDR3/2400, vs. only DDR3/1333 in the Dell which one can't change).
Someone commented about Intel releasing an unlocked XEON. Of course
they could, but they won't because they don't need to, and biz users
wouldn't really care, it's not what they want, and note that power
efficiency is very important for big server setups, something of which
oc'ing can of course make utterly ruin. :D Someone said who cares about
power guzzling when it comes to enthusiast builds, and that's true, but
when it comes to XEONs the main target market does care, so again Intel
has no incentive to bother releasing an unlocked XEON.
I agree with the poster who said 40 PCIe lanes isn't ridiculous. We had
such provision with X58, so if anything for a top-end platform only 40
lanes isn't that impressive IMO. Far worse is the continued limit of
just 2 SATA3 ports; that really is a pain, because the 3rd party
controllers are generally awful. The Asrock X79 Extreme11 solved this
to some extent by offering onboard SAS, but they kinda crippled it by
not having any cache RAM as part of the built-in SAS chip.

wallysb01 - Wednesday, September 04, 2013 - link"It's easy to think a smaller company might be more likely to try such a thing, but in reality for a smaller company it would be a much larger financial risk to do so. Bigger companies could afford to try it, but aren't geared up for such ideas.
Btw, oc'ing a XEON is viable with single-socket mbds that happen to support them and have chipsets which don't rely on the CPU multiplier for oc'ing, eg. an X5570 on an Asrock X58 xtreme6 works ok (I have one); the chip advantage is a higher TDP and 50% faster QPI compared to a clock-comparable i7 950."
These two statements work against eachother. If OC a SP xeon is relatively easy, only if supported, there isn't much reason a DP xeon set up couldn't be OCed within reason without much effort.
I'm not going to say this would be a common thing, but the small shops run by someone with a "tinkerer" mind set towards computing would certainly be interested in attempting to get that extra 10-20% performance, which Intel would change another $1000 or more for, but get it for free. Reply
psyq321 - Thursday, September 05, 2013 - linkZ9PE-D8 WS has decent overclocking options (not like their consumer X79 boards, but not bad either).
However, apart from a small BCLK bump, this is useless as SNB-EP and IVB-EP Xeons are locked.
The best I can do with dual Xeon 2697 v2 is ~3150 MHz (I might be able to go a bit further but I did not bother) for all-core turbo.
Even if Intel ignores the business reasons NOT to allow Xeon overclocking (to force high-performance-trading people to buy more expensive Xeons as they showed willingness to overclock and, so, potentially cannibalize market for more expensive EX parts) technically this would be a huge challenge.
Why? Well, 12-core Xeon 2697 power-usage would literally explode if you allow running this on 4+ GHz and with voltages normally seen in overclocking world. I am sure the power draw of the single part would be more than 300W, so 600W for a dual-socket board.
This is not unheard of (after all, high-end GPUs can draw comparable power) - however, this would mandate significantly higher specs for the motherboard components and put people in actual danger of fires by using inadequate components.
Maybe when Intel moves to Haswell E/EP - when the voltage regulation becomes CPUs's business, maybe they can find a way to allow overclocking of such huge CPUs after passing lots of checks. Otherwise, Intel runs huge risk of being sued for causing fires. Reply
mapesdhs - Sunday, August 13, 2017 - linkFour years later, who could have imagined we'd end up with Threadripper, and the mess Intel is now in? Funny old world. :D Reply
stephenbrooks - Monday, September 23, 2013 - link--[i just hate the direction cpu's are going with low power low core count highly integrated everythiing, 5 years ago i was dreaming of 8 core cpu's being standard about now but we still have 4]--
So I got an AMD FX8350, that's 8 cores and 4GHz before turbo. Quite a bit cheaper than Intel's too.
OK, obviously AMD gets less operations per clock and the 8 cores only have 4 "real" FPUs between them but I wanted 8 cores to test scaling of computer programs on without breaking the bank. Reply

Frozen Ham
Instead of using ham hocks in soups, beans and other dishes, I buy a fully cooked ham and ask the butcher to cut it into large chunks. I package them individually in large heavy-duty resealable plastic bags and freeze until I need them. They require less trimming and provide a lot more meat than the ham hocks. —Thela Ostling, Roscommon, Michigan

If legal system is to be properly revamped, it is not just matter of promulgating law but rather its implementation.
Surely if army action is not taken now, it will be too late to exercise this option later.
What we have achieved through these elections is historic and something to be proud of.
No definition of 'sagacious' and 'ameen' has been given, leaving process of scrutiny open to being abused.
Let me say allegiance is not exclusive; it is earned.
Rules for media's behaviour, whether by Supreme Court or government, would amount to 'prior restraint' & 'censorship'.
The moment the courts start taking decisions on policy or political matters, their actions become anti-democratic.

Putin honours 'worker heroes'
Share on
The Russian President Vladmir Putin is set to revive a Soviet-era tradition later on Wednesday.
At a ceremony in St Petersburg he will be handing out medals to Russian Heroes of Labour.
Back in the USSR, a similar award was bestowed on those workers making extraordinary efforts for the Soviet state and the revival of the "Hero of Labour" award is part of an attempt by the Russian authorities to find new heroes for a country lacking contemporary icons.
The BBC's correspondent Steve Rosenberg reports Moscow where he met some Russian heroes of the past.

Leavitt recommended Golden for Miami job
Jim Leavitt, matchmaker?
Turns out the former USF football coach recommended Temple's Al Golden to Miami athletic director Kirby Hocutt (who played for Leavitt as a linebacker at Kansas State), and Hocutt liked what he saw in Golden during the interview process enough to hire him as his new coach.
"I just told Kirby that I thought he was impressive," Leavitt said Tuesday afternoon. "I was very impressed with how well he did at Temple, and some people that know him well spoke very highly of him."
Leavitt has never faced Golden in a game, but nearly did last season -- as the Bulls were waiting to find out their bowl opponent, Leavitt thought it would be Northern Illinois (as the Bulls ended up beating 27-3 in Toronto) or Temple. He watched tape of several Temple games, and knowing the school's humble background, struggling during its years in the Big East, he made a point to keep an eye on the Owls.
"I saw how explosive they were," said Leavitt, who watched this year's Temple-Connecticut game on TV and saw the Owls knock the eventual Big East champions. "I recruited New Jersey when I was at Kansas State, and I know how difficult it was at Temple. So I watched him from afar. I'm always intrigued by people who can do a lot with a little."
Tuesday's Palm Beach Post writes that Golden "may not have even gotten a sniff from UM" if it weren't for Leavitt's endorsement. Leavitt said he and Hocutt "talked a lot" about potential candidates for the Miami job, but when asked if he might be a match for the Hurricanes' defensive coordinator job, Leavitt said again that he's focusing on his young daughter Sofia, as well as his wrongful termination suit against USF, which has its first depositions with witnesses Wednesday.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Swiss chocolate maker Lindt & Sprungli announced a deal to buy Russell Stover Candies today, the third-largest U.S. chocolate manufacturer behind Hershey (HSY) and M&M Mars.
No price for the private transaction has been disclosed but estimates suggest the deal was for $1.4 billion. The deal is expected to close in August or September and generate combined North American sales of $1.5 billion in 2015. Lindt, which sells under the Ghirardelli and Lindt brands, is looking to increase its influence in the high-end U.S. chocolate market.
The Lindt purchase of Russell is its largest to date and shows the importance the Swiss chocolate maker is placing on the U.S. market, which last year generated almost 30% of its total revenue.What Wall Street Is Saying Gold Prices Will Do in the Second Half of 2014

Russell began in 1923 in the home of Russell and Clara Stover in Denver, Colo. They opened their first store in December of that year, selling 120 pounds of chocolate and raising $90 the first day. Its three brands -- Russell Stover, Whitman's, and Pangburn's -- account for more than 60% of all U.S. boxed chocolate sales.
Tom Hanks brought even more attention to Russell in the 1994 movie, "Forrest Gump." The box of chocolates that Hanks refers to in his memorable "Life was like a box of chocolates" quote in the movie is a box of Russell's chocolate pralines.

Remember when all you had to worry about was your daughter posting naked selfies of herself on Facebook? Now, things are worse.
In what has to be a new low for the Millennial generation, a daughter's Facebook boasting has cost her family $80,000, and likely ruined the European vacation she was bragging about...
Patrick Snay was the headmaster for Gulliver Preparatory School, but in 2010, the school did not renew his contract. Snay sued the school, alleging age discrimination. Eventually the school and Snay came to a settlement agreement for $80,000. As is common in settlements of this kind, the agreement contained a confidentiality clause. For those playing along at home, a confidentiality clause means that neither Snay, nor the school, could talk about the settlement. Simple stuff, really.
But daughter Dana Snay didn't get the memo. After the settlement was reached, she posted this on Facebook, according to the Miami Herald:
"Mama and Papa Snay won the case against Gulliver," Dana Snay posted days later to her 1,200 Facebook friends. "Gulliver is now officially paying for my vacation to Europe this summer. SUCK IT."
Suck it, indeed.
A Florida court quickly threw out the $80,000 settlement. Patrick Snay violated confidentiality when he told his daughter, and his daughter totally blew it apart on Facebook.
Confidentially agreements might seem like a petty attempt to hide the truth, but they are a really important part of most settlement agreements. We can't tell from a settlement agreement that Snay "won" his case against Gulliver. We don't know that Gulliver discriminated against him. All we know is that at some point it was worth $80,000 to Gulliver to make Snay's lawsuit go away, and that Snay wanted $80,000 and then to move on with his life. Dana Snay's characterization that "Mama and Papa Snay won the case" is exactly the kind of simplistic viewpoint that confidentiality agreements are designed to avoid.
And Facebook is not confidential. There's no way the private conversation between father and daughter would have ruined the settlement if the daughter hadn't made that conversation public on Facebook.
On the positive side, Patrick Snay has a new job now. And Dana Snay has learned a lot more about the world than she would have picked up in Europe.

By DAVID M. JOHNSON
SARATOGA SPRINGS -- It was a day to celebrate commitment from countless people and horses who've kept a tradition that began Aug. 3, 1863, alive 150 years later.
It was also a day to start new traditions, like the long-awaited opening of a public viewing stand at the Oklahoma training track and the new trophy awarded to Goldmark Farm owner Paul Buhlman -- the owner of Whitney Handicap winner Cross Traffic.
It's impossible to look forward and back at the same time, but the Saratoga 150 committee tried hard to make the 86th running of the Grade 1 Whitney and the track's 150th anniversary experience at the track a memorable one. Too hard at times, maybe, with what seemed like identical congratulatory speeches between several races early in the card.
The day meant something different for each of the 33,148 patrons in attendance, but many of their stories had similar tones.
"The history of this place means a lot to us," said Manasquan, N.J., resident Dean Pflaum, who visits Saratoga every year with his wife Diane and their three daughters. "It's the most beautiful place in the Northeast. The tradition, the family fun, we're hooked for life. It's special to be here on this day."
Tom Reardon has been making the trek for 37 years and still wears the baseball cap from Whitney Day 1999.
"More often than not, its Whitney week I come back," said Reardon, a 65-year-old Flemington, N.J., resident. "I'm from New Jersey, so we have a number of tracks in the area and this atmosphere is so much nicer."
For the competitors on the track, however, the day was all about winning.
"It's a great day here and I'm glad to win a race here on a day like today," said trainer Dale Romans from the winner's circle after his horse Slan Abhaile won the first race of the afternoon. "To beat this kind of field at Saratoga you have to earn it, because they don't give you anything."
Winning in front of a large crowd was more important for jockey Luis Saez's career than the track's 150th birthday.
"This is my first year here," Saez said after his first-place trip on Truth Is in Race 2. "I'm here and doing well. I'm winning here, so I feel amazing."
Saez's afternoon got even better when he rode 23-1 longshot Assateague to a win in the ungraded De La Rosa stakes.
The compelling featured race, the 86th running of the Grade 1 Whitney Handicap, was made even more interesting by the $15,000 win-wager contest placed on favorite Fort Larned by Wilton resident Kevin Brockley. So when trainer Todd Pletcher and jockey John Velazquez -- thoroughbred racing's equivalent of Steinbrenner's Yankees -- ended up in the winner's circle with second choice Cross Traffic, the public had someone besides themselves to sympathize with.
The many problems facing the sport of horse racing -- stemming from waning interest among the next generation -- weren't solved. But that's not what the Saturday was about. For about six hours at Saratoga Race Course, fans were treated to the best of what racing has to offer right now.

The saga continues... my 02 3.0 sport adriatic/dove with every option(x1,x2,x3,alpine,manual,xenons) stickered for 43k+, except nav and phone just had the 20k service. here is a list of problems that have been addressed over the pasr 16 months
1) paint not smooth at delivery...was wet sanded
2)boot latch replaced
3) cooling fan relay replaced after overheating
4) defroster vents still pop out... replaced several times
5) driver door unable to open...latch assembly replaced 2x
6) steering wheel vibration when braking ....wheels balanced then rotors replaced
7) fuel gauge reads empty after filling up. gas tank and sending unit replaced
8) car over heats again... same repair as (3) with the addition of a new thermostat
9) headlight washers popoff....reattached
10)steering wheel still vibrates... tires rebalanced and road forced, problem unresolved front brakes replaced again. rotors susceptible to warping if lug nuts not torqued in proper order
11) multiple interior rattles especially from sun roof button... repaired or replaced trim as needed
12) I may have missed one or two items the list is too long. Unfortunately, the value has dropped too much and I can't trade for a like 03. Nothing else has any style. It is a great car to drive, and is awesome in the snow. Fortunately I have gone to a new dealer and the master tech is outstanding
Ouch, looks like yours hit them all. I still haven't had any of the problems - glad your master tech is outstanding and hope everything continues to work out fine without anything else needing to be fixed.
http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,495- 0081%255E13232,00.html
Just found the review above. It's an Australian review of a 2.1-liter X-type so all of the performance is off from the 2.5's and 3.0's that we have in the U.S. Although the car lacked in the performance area with the tiny engine, the 2.1 X-type still outscored competitors like the Lexus ES300, new Saab 9-3, and even its big-brother XK8. Needless to say, they liked it.
seems like we have an eye for nice cars
kss od
Along with developing a new XJ-Series car to replace the aging old one (though I still like it a lot), Jaguar also developed a new 3.5-liter engine which will be launched with the new XJ, which will also be available with the 3.0-liter AJ-V6 engine from the X-type and the bored-out 4.2-liter AJ-V8 in normal and supercharged forms.
Well, all of the early reports had stated that the X-type R would have a supercharged version of the new Jaguar 3.5-liter V6 engine, which until recently was thought of as myth. Yet, the 3.5 engine is now here.
Rumors are that the X-type's existing 3.0-liter engine will be replaced by the 3.5-liter or the engine will be added to the lineup, as well as to the S-type's and it's already in the new XJ's. With Nissan's 3.5 liter engine in its products including its Infiniti lineup, and the new Lexus IS being scheduled to have a V8 option, and with Volvo getting R-badged cars, and Audi with its new S4, and BMW with a newly tuned 3-Series sport, the 3.5 seems like a viable addition to the X-type lineup to keep the car in the top of the power ladder.
Any thoughts? I wonder what the horsepower ratings will be. I wouldn't be surprised to see the engine turn up in most all of Jaguar's products.
mjc440 Posts: 76A 3.5 Liter will certainly make Jag more competive. Is this a new block or is it derived from the Ford Duratec block?
From all the information I have, all it says is that the engine is "new". I'm not sure how far the current AJ-V6 block can be bored out to; the AJ-V8's 4.2 liter size is about as large as that block can be bored out to, and the next larger engine than the 4.2 will have to be based on a larger block. Jaguar's re-engineered version of the Duratec block is one of the highest-output 3.0-liter-ish engines available, making 240 horsepower in the S-type and 231 in the X-type. By comparison, Mercedes' 3.2 liter engine makes 215 horsepower and BMW's 3.0 makes 225 hp. It's ahead of the European competition, but with the newer Japanese 3.5 liter engines making 260 hp, the extra half-liter seems to be where the market is moving. I believe Mercedes now has an ML350 out, which would indicate a new 3.5 liter engine, and BMW's next-generating 3 will have a 3.3 or 3.5 liter engine. I'm glad Jaguar is staying competitive - I love my car!

Blew the doors off a 330i today; he and I had a lot of fun weaving in and out of traffic about 35 mph more than we should have been going. A Maxima joined in, and was surprisingly faster than I estimated he would be, though he seemed to be working a little harder than Bimmer and me. All of these cars are awesome at speed and truly a lot of fun. Also, I happened to get shunted off onto the freeway during this little competition of ours (with the other cars) and ended up in some strange neighboring area. People in the other cars in traffic literally pressed their faces against the glass of their cars to look at the X, as if it was something special ;-) I love this car!
I purchased the x-type in dec 2002 (my 1st jag). I crashed and totaled 1st jag in feb 2003. Fortunately my insurance paid off my outstanding load balance with $300. back to me? I am jumping back onto the horse as I am preparing to order another x-type. My Question: Does Jag offer previous buyers any incentives or discounts on subsequent jag purchases? Thanks in advance for any insight. crashx
Ouch! Sorry to hear about the crash and hope you're okay.
While I don't know of any incentives that Jaguar has for repeat buyers, the people at Jagtalk or xk8.net might.
Also, your dealer will probably knock the price down since you'd be buying another car from them. My dealer took the price down on my X-type since we had purchased an S-type just 1.5 - 2 years earlier.
So, are you going to get a "twin" of the original Jag, or will you go for a different color, etc?
Thanks for your quick response. I do want to replace my crashed jag with a "twin" (I never enjoyed driving a car so much) but my original dealer does not have the car in stock with all of the options of my original.
I had the 2.5 x-type Quartz with navigational system plus many other upgrades. It seems jag does not stock many with nav. especially with my specific request (color/options). I was lucky to find the one I wanted. The dealership (north jersey, 2.5 hours from home) was the only one that had that specific car in stock.
I am prepared to wait if I have to order the car. My business has me on the roads often, and the jag nav. system was amazing. It has never steered me wrong in the confusing street of Phila, New York or DC, which is saying alot!
Thanks again and I will check with Jagtalk and xk8.net. BTW, I faired much better than the car. crashx
>Ouch! Sorry to hear about the crash and hope you're okay.
>I faired much better than the car.
>Good! I'm very glad and happy to hear it.
I know you've probably already asked your dealer, but I'll just say this in case it slipped by:
Before ordering - if you don't want to wait - have your dealer phone other dealers to see if they have a "twin" of your last Jag. Jaguar has a vast network for tracking all of its cars - even used cars are tracked by Jaguar. If a dealer near enough has the combo you want, they can trade your dealer for it and then deliver it for you.
If this helps, I'm glad it did. If it didn't, sorry to waste your time. Good luck!
P.S. - Since your new X-type will be a 2003, it will probably come with some really nice options your last one didn't have too!
im_brentwood Posts: 4,883They can do a search via DCS.. I'm sure a Quartz 2.5 with Navi is out there somewhere.
Glad to hear you are OK tho! Jag has done $1,000 owner loyalty credits in the past.. I'd call 1-800-4-JAGUAR and see if they know.
pluskin Posts: 79Its a V8, not a V6. I'm pretty sure its the same engine family as the 4.0/4.2, but could verify that if anyone cares. The new 3.5 develops 262bhp & 254lbft(DIN)and replaces the 3.2L V8 that was available in the X300 in europe.
I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for a V8 powered X-type in the near future.
Perhaps someone will be good enough to give me some advice. Just get an 03 2.5X, and love it.
Financial considerations prevented me from getting one with a CD, but would like to know how I can get an aftermarket unit. Can anyone suggest a good unit I can get installed?
akirby Posts: 8,001You can use any aftermarket cd changer that is FM modulated - it just broadcasts the CD signal on a FM radio frequency. Sound quality will be the same as a really good FM station. If you want better you'll have to get the factory changer (the cables are usually vehicle specific). www.radiosandmore.com sells domestic OEM radios at a decent price but I don't see any jag equipment. Have you priced one at the dealer? Sometimes the dealer prices aren't too bad. Or maybe one of the Jag owners can give you an aftermarket source for OEM changers. You won't be able to just plug in an aftermarket changer even if it's the same manufacturer because of the cabling.
That's a good and common question. The only unit I know of that I have *read* works with the advanced fiberoptic electrical system of the X-type is the Sony X-plode series of CD changers and players. They have a compatible linkup with the system, or so I've read.
And make sure you set your radio settings to "Europe" for better reception - it activates the FM boost for the car and clears up the radio.
P.S. - Jaguar also has an indash CD player that costs around $200.
rstoerger Posts: 17I have had my S-type for nearly three years and honestly love it. Never had any major issues. I am about to end this lease and have been considering getting into a brand new one...which has some excellent improvements.
While the past two winters have been mild, this year's has not. My car does not do well at all in even the mildest slush. As such, I am reconsidering getting into a new one lest the upcoming winters be bad.
Has anyone had either positive or negative issues regarding S-Types in Snow. How about the four-wheel drive X-Type?
care4t Posts: 8Rstoerger-
I live in Northern Va and we have had a series of major snows this winter. And, having owned 991/2 A4 with Quattro system prior to acquiring X-type, I was able to compare the handlings of two in snowy conditions. Although I am quite satisfied with the drivability of X-Type in snow and would recommend to people who are looking for AWD, my honest assessment compared to A4 is that A4 offered a more stable AWD mechanism than X-type. However, I am very impressed with the DSC (Digital Stability Control?) feature. It literally prevented the car from wobbling side to side a number of times.
This is strictly based on my personal experience only.
I just bought a Black 02 Xtype and i am thinking about taking the car to have the car buffed.
Anyone have any insite or advise?
The place i talked to said it would make the car finish like new.
BTW there isnt many scratch only a few swirl marks
Any advise?

Clicking the above link will take you to the black paint discussion which is read only now. Some interesting stuff though.
msiseng Posts: 369Why not just buy a hand-held navigation system online or from a store? That way, you can transfer it between vehicles. Mine works very well technically. Put it up against my friend's X-Type (we all got the same cars with different options) and it is equally as good!
Granted, it is not as easy to use, but may be an option for those that cannot find the X-Type with a Navi system.
Jaguar does have a customer loyalty program for those asking. From the moment you buy or lease a vehicle from Jaguar, you are automatically enrolled in the program. There are hidden incentives if you ask your dealer.
Does anyone else feel a hesitation when driving from 10 mph to 20 mph with the automatic 2.5? Once past the 20 mph mark, the hesitation is gone. Is this common for the X-Type?
geecheewheels Posts: 18Intermittently during normal driving, when I release the brake pedal I get the "click" in the gear shift that you get when you release from park. It does not always happen. When I took it to service, they said it was normal; if it ALWAYS happened I may agree but it doesn't. Has anyone else had this noise?
My 3.0 auto used to have a little bit of a hesitation from the start, but by my first free scheduled service, my dealer's tune-up of the car eliminated the hesitation. I'm not sure what they did, but when I got the car back, it was very much smoother than it had ever been, and it launches just as quickly, but with more refinement - less of a lurch. Perhaps this will happen at your next service? You could also ask your tech about it, because your car does not have to hesitate.
The click is caused by something happening with the selenoid (?) (that's what I've read it being called, I hope I spelled it correctly) in the transmission. The exact same thing happened to my car, but I mentioned it to my dealer at the first service, and they took care of it - no more click! Don't take that BS from your dealer about it being "normal" because it isn't supposed to do that and it can be fixed very easily - my dealer did it for me, yours can for you!
Recently, some other Jaguar owners have spotted X-type Sport models with natural wood colors and the chrome blades that the luxury versions of the car have. So now with Sport X-types, you have your choice of R-type grey-stained wood and body color or black accents, or natural wood and chrome accents. More choices is always better.
Can anyone tell me how to change disks with the cd changer?
I loaded 6 cd's into the cartridge but i cant figure out how to change from 1 disk to another.
I'm still waiting for my owners manual so i thought i would ask here.
while cd is playing numbers 1-6 on the phone pad load the CD in their respective tray.
Also the select button on the steering wheel audio control can switch between AM/FM/ CD, once in cd the toggle for stations now controls the track on the CD. If you hold the toggle in for several seconds it will load the next CD either up or down.
thanks for the info
i have had my jag x for over a month and i still dont have the owners manual.
i have talked to my dealer a few times telling them i still dont have the owners manual
jonty12 Posts: 101if you register on http://www.myjaguar.com you have access to a pdf version of the owners manual, as well as almost all other documentation.
From my last entry I have had a little advice on how to get a CD changer for my 03 X Type, that came without. Here is what I have learned. The local dealer will install a "factory" unit for only $1300! Some say that the Sony E-plod is compatable, but my email to them returned a negative answer. Also, they seem to be affiliated strongly with Crutchfield, who tells me that none of their units is compatable with my car. Still looking for ideas. Thanks.
According to this site, which is updated frequently:
http://auto.consumerguide.com/auto/new/reviews/full/index.cfm/id/- 23253.htm
the X-type is to get an R-badged version in 2004 as a 2005 model, along with a new 3.2 liter engine added to the range.
"Jaguar is plowing ahead with an X-Type wagon and hot R-models. The wagon reportedly bows overseas in spring 2004. U.S. sales should begin very soon afterwards, probably with the same V6 powerteams offered in sedans. Like the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes C-Class wagons, the X-Type emphasizes luxury and sporty handling over outright space and utility. Structure is reportedly the same as the sedan's from the rear doors forward, but the roofline tapers down to a trim liftgate with separate opening window.
The X-Type R should be here by early 2005, assuming it's not delayed for some reason [(think XJ8)]. A sedan is assured, a wagon version possible. Chief attractions are a supercharged V6 with upwards of 330 hp, plus firmed-up suspension, less exterior chrome, a mesh grille, and standard 19-inch wheels and tires, but no garish rear spoiler or "aero" body skirts. British guesstimates have the R-model sedan doing 0-60 in just 5 sec and 160 mph all-out...
...A final X-Type rumor concerns the current 3.0-liter V6, which reportedly gives way to a more potent 3.2 sometime soon, perhaps as early as model-year '04. We'll keep you posted."
Another Jag-talker found this information, so credit goes to him. The article is supposed to be from 3/12/2003.
In other news, there's a little motorsports/car-tuner shop in my town that fixes up and sells high-performance luxury cars; the X-type has become the "halo car" of the place, with a few very nice tuned-up Sport models around on display. They don't do exterior mods, just performance ones to the drivetrains. I'll check the place out a little more... fun stuff.

Not sure if we'll have a place to stash our car full of gear until check in time. Gear will have to be stashed to make room for scrapgirls. Pat, do you have room to stash until) we can check in? Sandi, most hotels have a locked room they will hold your bags for you if you're room isn't ready. Stop at the front desk to let them know you're there and will be checking in and that you have bags you want them to hold. When I was 'living' in a hotel the first half of 2010, I would do laundry, pack it up and check it with the hotel for the weekends I went home - then all I had was my PC bag to take back & forth Great idea Michelle!! 1 sleep for me!!

Appearing for the first time in an official event with the other Super Junior members, Kangin shared how his perspective on girl groups changed after serving in the army for two years.
On July 3, Super Junior held a press conference in a Kangnam hotel in Seoul to commemorate the release of its sixth albumSexy, Free & Single.
There, Kangin talked about his self-reflection after being involved his DUI and assault incident in 2009 as well as his service in the Korean military.
About living as a Korean soldier for two years, Kangin remarked, "After four months into the army, the Girls' Generation (SNSD) members began to appear as women to me. I've watched them since they were little, but during the Oh! album, they got very pretty. I felt like they were winking at me through the television set."
The singer added, "During one of my breaks, I visited the company, and when I saw SNSD, I hugged them so hard without realizing it."
Super Junior will make its stage comeback on Mnet's M Countdown on July 5.

SECAUCUS, N.J. — The Children's Place Retail Stores search for someone to oversee its finance and operations appears to have come to an end as the company has announced the appointment of Eric Bauer as COO. He will report to Jane Elfers, president and CEO, and will be responsible for supply chain, planning and allocation, store operations, finance, information technology and real estate.
Bauer most recently spent eight years with Gap Inc., culminating in his appointment as EVP brand operations, COO for Gap North America where he was responsible for finance, store operations, real estate, distribution, logistics, information technology and their Canadian operations. He previously served as SVP and CFO for Banana Republic. Prior to Gap, he held the position of EVP, administration and CFO for Tickets.com. Bauer began his career as a credit analyst with Banque Arabe et Internationale D'Investissement and subsequently held positions of increasing responsibility with KPMG Peat Marwick, International Marketing Associates, Pepsico Corporation's Taco Bell Division and Choice Hotels International.
"Eric brings a wealth of knowledge and proven operational expertise to The Children's Place," commented Elfers. "His international background, coupled with hands-on experience leading finance, planning and allocation, store operations, real estate and information technology will be a tremendous asset. I look forward to partnering with him as we continue to pursue our key growth initiatives."
Children's Place did not say whether or not it would continue to search for a CFO following former EVP finance and administration Susan Riley's departure in February. The company reported then that it would eliminate the position of EVP finance and administration and begin a search for a CFO.
Riley was originally slated to replace then CFO Hiten Patel upon his departure. Then in December 2007 Richard Paradise, SVP finance was named CFO and principal accounting officer, reporting directly to Riley, only to announce his retirement less than a year later.
The company reported that its fourth-quarter net income fell to $32.1 million in the three months ended Jan. 29, down from $34.1 million year ago. Revenue fell 2% to $453.2 million from $462.8 million in the prior-year period. Same-store sales fell 5.9%.

|Official Title:
|Oxidative Cell Injury: First Episode Psychotic Patients
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|September 1999
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|August 2004
Preliminary research indicated that impaired antioxidant defense and increased lipid peroxidation is associated with brain changes during the onset of psychosis. Oxidative cell injury may contribute to poor outcomes in some patients. This study will define the extent and nature of oxidative cell injury that is associated with psychopathology at the onset of psychosis.
Participants in this study will be patients at the D. D. Eisenhower Army Medical Center who are experiencing a psychotic episode for the first time. Patients will be compared with 40 healthy volunteers (control group) matched with patients for age, gender, education, ethnic background, and occupational status. Patients and volunteers will have blood tests to determine the level of oxidative cell injury. Tests will be performed at onset of psychosis, and after 6 and 12 weeks of neuroleptic drug treatment. Medical histories and MRI scans will be used to examine the relationship of the laboratory tests to the clinical presentation.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|12 Years to 45 Years (Child, Adult)

Recently on XDA, I created this thread....... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941028 It's been designed as a resource for the new user who wants to modify their phone but is unsure how to go about it. It contains info and links for ROOTING, installing and using CLOCKWORKMOD and installing some of the more popular ICS based CUSTOM ROMs. It has received some good feedback, so if you need that type of help click on the link and take a look...... Cheers.....Keith.
