The command is aticonfig --help, or running aticonfig without any options.
Anyways, this leads to another good question.
When will the help parameters for aticonfig get segmented into separate options, because the help output is way to long for most users and could discourage the use of this command (even though currently this command is required to enable crossfire on linux).

by John Pollard Legendary bass, awesome price If you're looking to add some boom to your car's sound system, Kicker's CompS line will get your car shaking without draining your wallet. These subs are the latest in the legendary Kicker Comp line that started in 1986, with a proven pedigree when it comes to delivering powerful bass. The heavy steel basket cuts down on unwanted vibrations. Kicker technology at work Kicker's 40CWS152 15" subwoofer features a flex-resistant polypropylene cone for hard-hitting lows without distortion, while the ribbed foam surround promotes long excursion and helps to keep the cone on target. The sub's steel basket provides a reliable foundation for big bass, and its extensive venting ensures long-lasting performance that won't break down when the bass gets heavy. 2-ohm impedance for more power This sub handles 600 watts RMS to bring out the depth your music's been missing, and its 2-ohm impedance brings out max power from your mono amp. This versatile sub works well in sealed or ported enclosures, and it's even suitable for free-air applications. To drive this single subwoofer, we recommend a mono amplifier rated between 450 and 900 watts RMS at 2 ohms. For more information, please refer to our article on How to Match Subwoofers and Amplifiers.

A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back.

Astros fire manager Garner, GM Purpura
HOUSTON -- Less than two years ago, the Houston Astros were celebrating their first National League pennant. On Monday, they were starting over.
Garner's Managerial Record
Less than two years after leading the Astros to the NL pennant, Phil Garner is out of a job. Houston released Garner on Monday, closing another chapter in Garner's long managerial career.2007 | HOU | 58-73 | None |
2006 | HOU | 82-20 | None |
2002 | DET | 0-6 | None |
2001 | DET | 66-96 | None |
2000 | DET | 79-83 | None |
1999 | MIL | 52-60 | None |
1998 | MIL | 74-88 | None |
1997 | MIL | 78-83 | None |
1996 | MIL | 80-82 | None |
1995 | MIL | 65-79 | None |
1994 | MIL | 53-62 | None |
1993 | MIL | 69-93 | None |
1992 | MIL | 92-70 | None |
Manager Phil Garner and general manager Tim Purpura were fired by owner Drayton McLane, who said the franchise "needed a fresh start" after a plunge to the bottom of the NL Central.
Bench coach Cecil Cooper was appointed interim manager, and team president Tal Smith will serve as interim general manager.
"I felt for a number of reasons, we needed new direction, invigoration, to play with more enthusiasm and play more like a champion," McLane said.
The Astros slumped to 58-73 this year, nine games behind the division-leading Chicago Cubs. They've lost five of their last seven home games, to lowly Washington and Pittsburgh.
"We had really fallen into a pattern of so-so ball," Garner said during a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "We were never able to put together the run, like we made in the previous two seasons. I think there were a number of reasons for that."
Houston became the fourth team to switch managers this season. Baltimore fired Sam Perlozzo on June 18 and Cincinnati fired Jerry Narron on July 1, the same day Mike Hargrove resigned as Seattle's manager.
The 57-year-old Cooper becomes a major league manager for the first time. The five-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove winner was the bench coach in Milwaukee in 2002 and managed Triple-A Indianapolis in 2003-04.
Cooper was taking his mother-in-law to a doctor's appointment on Monday when Smith and McLane called to offer him the job.
Stark: Crossing the line?
It was only a matter of time before somebody got tossed overboard by the sinking ship the '07 Astros have become. Nevertheless, owner Drayton McLane might have taken it to the extreme, writes Jayson Stark. Story
"It's been kind of a whirlwind tour this morning," he said. "Drayton asked me if I was OK and all of a sudden, in the pit of my stomach, I felt sick. It really was a shock to me. I kind of got a little emotional, but I'm also excited about the opportunity. I've been the World Series as a player and a coach. Now, I want to try it as a manager."
Cooper says he has a plan for turning around the Astros. He promoted first-base coach Jose Cruz to bench coach and moved bullpen coach Mark Bailey to the first-base position and planned to unveil some lineup changes on Tuesday.
"I know how to win," Cooper said. "I really do believe I know what it takes to get the Houston Astros over the hump and back to the World Series."
McLane said it wasn't one game or one personnel move by Purpura, but several factors that drove him to make changes.
"There are some issues," McLane said. "It has been a series of things and observations."
The Astros have 31 games left and open a three-game series with St. Louis on Tuesday. McLane suggested that the rest of the season essentially was an audition for Cooper.
"This is an opportunity for Cecil to show us his leadership," McLane said. "It wouldn't be bad if we won all 31."
Garner took over the Astros in the middle of the 2004 season after Jimy Williams was fired. The Astros went 48-26 in the second half and won 36 of their last 46 games to become the NL wild card, then defeated Atlanta in the first round of the playoffs before losing to St. Louis in Game 7 of the NL Championship Series.
Houston won its second straight wild-card berth in 2005 and defeated the Braves and Cardinals in the playoffs before the World Series sweep.
The Astros were 82-80 last year, finishing 1½ games behind the Cardinals in the NL Central, but slumped this season following the departures of Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte.
Garner managed Milwaukee from 1992-99 and Detroit from 2000-02. He has a 985-1,054 career record as a major league manager, including 277-252 with the Astros.
"I had a wonderful time with the Astros," Garner said. "They gave me a great opportunity. They reinvigorated my interest in baseball and really gave me a great opportunity to reinvigorate my career. I'm more grateful for the job they gave me than I am saddened and upset by the firing."
Craig Biggio's 3,000th hit has been the highlight of an otherwise dismal 2007 season.
Houston signed free agent Carlos Lee to a $100 million, six-year contract last offseason but also acquired disappointing starter Woody Williams (7-12). Purpura also took some of the blame for hanging on to Morgan Ensberg, whose stats dropped precipitously after an All-Star season in 2005. The Astros designated Ensberg for assignment in late July.
Purpura, who did not immediately return a telephone message, also made an ill-fated trade with Colorado, dealing speedster Willy Taveras and promising pitching prospects Jason Hirsh and Taylor Buchholz for Jason Jennings, who was 2-9 before he was placed on the disabled list with a bad elbow on Aug. 21.
"We want to bring some new, fresh ideas," McLane said. "Companies become stagnant sometimes. In the corporate world, when they bring in new CEOs or new top executives, they come in with new ideas, new ways to get things done. That's what I'm excited about."
Purpura joined the Astros in 1994 and directed player development and six minor league affiliates before taking over from Gerry Hunsicker as GM before the 2005 season.
McLane wants to find a new GM by the end of this season. Smith, 73, was the Astros' president from 1976-80, then opened a consulting firm. McLane bought the Astros in 1993 and hired Smith as team president the following year.
"Nobody relishes these occasions," Smith said. "Tim and Gar are good people. They cared very much about the Houston Astros. But as we all recognize, this is a performance-driven industry."
The Astros came into this season with the fourth-best winning percentage in the majors since 1993.
"We've got a lot of work to do," Smith said, "and in the next several weeks, we're going to sit down and examine all aspects of the operation. We will proceed with a [GM] search as soon as we possibly can and see if we can't set things in motion for the future of this franchise.

I have long said that since WW II our economy has depended on preparing for or fighting a war. There is a big arsenal in a town near here. The economy of that town and other towns in that county would collapse if that arsenal shut down.
You don't know how close you are as to why we have social welfare programs. It was either that or have a bunch of people come for what they need. To be fair, the poor, hungry mobs usually went into the cities and took from the rich to feed their children. They were called reds and commies and socialists for the failures of the rich to share even a penny.
The boom and bust cycle of capitalism created crises every few years til in 1934, when we went on a permanent war economy. Social welfare programs like social security and unemployment were put in place in the New Deal of 1934 and we were geared up with armament work to supply the allies. Since then we have been fighting or preparing for this or that war, somewhat stabilizing the boom-or-bust cycle.
Even with a social safety net the greed and avarice of the rich knows no bounds as seen by the shameful big-bank mortgage derivative crisis of 2008 in which so many innocent people lost their homes.
Agreed. Same reason you can't dismantle the welfare and food stamp programs in our society. We have a responsibility to take care of a certain amount of our population. If we don't, desperate people will come after everything you have worked for. And to be clear, I don't have a lot of possessions. I drive a 20 year old car. But, I would like to keep what I worked for.
Has been lost and we continue to pay a ridiculous price every day, whether it be the innocents we put at risk or the tax dollars we vacuum up or the corruption that seeps it's way into every corner of every city.
I'd rather just give a needle and junk to a junkie who refuses every form of help then allow the current status quo to keep blowing through our land.
My views on drugs are very liberal. What one does to their self is their own business. But, this day care center in The Bronx that was a front for a major narcotics operation is just wrong. 1 kilo of powdered cocaine. 180 grams of crack cocaine. 1,000 oxycodone tablets. 1 loaded handgun. $180,000 cash. In a facility that serviced 15 children everyday. Definitely a moral interlude with those people.
In a surprise move, the The US & Russia have announced from Geneva that Syria will inventory it's chemical stockpile within one week and destroy them within the rough timeline of mid-2014. While the US has stopped posturing militarily, Obama has clearly stated that he reserves the right to unilaterally strike militarily if the Syrians deviate significantly or the Russians fail to live up to their commitments in pushing the Syrians.
If it works it is a significant diplomatic coup for the Obama team. If it turns into months of foot-dragging without a clear ending then nothing will have been accomplished and Putin gets to have a distribution center to sell conventional weapons all over the Middle East.
Last year and again this spring, it was ravaging forest fires consuming beetle-kill evergreens. Now it's raging floodwaters washing out the mountain canyons and inundating cities and towns from Colorado Springs to Fort Collins. Let's hope the rains let up and people get a chance to clean up.
Furthur arrives at Red Rocks next Thursday....
Because the Constitution protects property and contracts rather than people.
Most of us contribute to polluting the environment in some way and I won"t state the obvious. But what sickens me is the poor families living anywhere near a well that have to pick up and leave (if they can afford it) without any compensation for having too. It's just sort of a "tough luck, kiss my ass" approach that these companies are using simply because they know these people can't fight back. Not right Who has hundreds of thousands of dollars to fight for whats theirs? These companies aren't only destroying the land, they're also getting away with murder. Many people are dreadfully sick because of these bastards. I just don't get how they're allowed to destroy peoples lives. I guess there aren't enough Erin Brockovich's on the planet. Anyways...it's hard not to think that we are most definitely, doomed. Sooner rather than later.
I'm really not a pessimist, by nature. It's just hard to see a any of this changing.
Doesn't it seem like some sort of evolving picture of hell? Mad Max doesn't begin to describe it. We have earthquakes and waste water and benzene clouds and old mine cave-ins. It seems like 1/3 of our country is in the path of this demonic fuel repository.
I hate fracking. It's terrible. But I've been through some of those towns where people can't put a roof over their heads or provide for their kids because there is NOTHING for them. Are we supposed to condemn them? Tell them to move away from their families? Are we, who are more fortunate, supposed to say:
"Don't work there,
It's bad for the Earth!
I hate fracking and greedheads who make money off of it. But I can't bring myself to say to them: "Don't take the only work in town!"

10. A semiconductor laser according to claim 1, wherein said beam splitter means comprises two beam splitters; and said laser includes

No. P 39 31 588.6, filed Sept. 22, 1989, in the Federal Republic of Germany, the subject matter of which is incorporated herein by reference. The invention relates to an electrically tunable, interferometric semiconductor laser including at least three segments which abut on one another in one plane, are monolithically integrated on a semiconductor wafer, are each composed of at least one laser-active zone and have a mirror at their free ends, the semiconductor laser further including a beam splitter by means of which the segments are connected with one another. An interferometric semiconductor laser is a semiconductor laser configured according to the principle of a Michelson or Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Compared to a laser including a Fabry-Perot resonator, the interferometric semiconductor laser has the advantage that it emits in monomode operation while providing good suppression of side modes of the laser light. Moreover, when current is injected to change its optical length, this laser can be tuned through much more strongly than a laser including a DFB [distributed feedback] resonator. This makes it suitable for numerous applications: as a transmitting laser in multi-channel communications systems operating with wavelength multiplexing; as a local oscillator in coherent systems for the precise definition of channel wavelengths; and as a logic element. In the latter, the logic states "0" and "1" are represented by two wavelengths λ1, λ2. From the publication entitled Appl. Phys. Lett. 52 (1988), pages 767-769, it is known to construct such a monolithically integrated, continuously tunable laser which is composed of at least three individual laser cavities that are controlled independently of one another by way of electrical contacts. Four segments acting as optical resonators form a cross-shaped laser at whose crosspoint a beam splitter is disposed at an angle of 45� with respect to one of the segments. A semiconductor laser including only three segments having different lengths L1, L2 2, L3 is constructed according to the same principle. Such a semiconductor laser is produced on a (100) GaAs/GaAlAs double heterostructure by metal-organic gas phase epitaxy in which the segments are grown photolithographically in the [011] and [110] directions. Then the segments are coated with a dielectric material and electrodes are attached, the segments are metallized on the rear of the semiconductor substrate and split at their ends. By bombardment with a gallium ion beam, narrow troughs are created at the point of connection of the three segments so as to form the beam splitter. The troughs extend down to a distance of 0.1 μm from the laser-active zone so that a non-negligible coupling is created between the segments. Compared to the mode spectrum of an individual laser, the interferometric semiconductor laser, due to the different lengths L1, L2, L3 of the three segments, results in greater amplification of every nth mode as follows: ##EQU1## In spite of the relatively long lengths L1, L2, L3 of the individual segments, only the difference between the lengths of the laser cavities (L2 +L3)-(L1 +L2) plays a role in the separation of the modes, while modes of a frequency difference of c/2L occur in a laser including a Fabry-Prot resonator, where c is the speed of light and L the length of the laser cavity. Only if the laser is sufficiently short, will it oscillate at a single frequency. However, this interferometric semiconductor laser has the drawback that the frequency of the light it emits cannot be changed. It is an object of the invention to provide a semiconductor laser of the above-mentioned type whose emission frequency is variable and which is suitable for optical data transmission, i.e. emits in a wavelength range of 1.3 μm and 1.55 μm. This is accomplished in a semiconductor laser of the above-mentioned type in that the beam splitter is equipped with two electrodes through which, by way of a current, transmission and reflection of the laser light between the segments can be controlled. Advantageous modifications are defined in the dependent claims. A semiconductor laser provided with quantum-well layer packets as laser-active zones is particularly advantageous since it has a planar surface and the separation between the beam splitter and the waveguides as well as the monitor diode is effected by implanting or diffusing in foreign atoms, thus changing the crystal structure. This process is called "selective disordering". Another particularly advantageous modification includes a second beam splitter as well as three monitor diodes which serve to individually control phase, power and filter wavelength of the emitted laser light. The invention will now be described in greater detail with reference to embodiments thereof. It is shown in: FIGS. 1 to 3, an interferometric semiconductor laser including a holographic grating as the beam splitter; FIGS. 4 to 6, an interferometric semiconductor laser including an etched beam splitter; FIGS. 7 to 9, an interferometric semiconductor laser equipped with quantum-well lasers; FIGS. 10 to 11, an interferometric semiconductor laser including two beam splitters; and FIG. 12, an interferometric semiconductor laser including a Y coupler. An interferometric semiconductor laser (FIG. 1) is composed of three segments 1, 2, 3 and a monitor diode 4, which are arranged at a right angle to one another on a rectangular semiconductor chip 10. This chip is constructed on the basis of a semiconductor substrate Il (FIG. 2). Segments I, 2, 3 and monitor diode 4, composed of several superposed layers 12, . . . , 16 (see FIG. 2) are connected with one another by way of a beam splitter 5. However, troughs 18 extend down to the depth of layer 14 (see FIG. 2) into the sequence of layers 11, . . . , 16 between segments 1 to 3 and monitor diode 4, on the one hand, and beam splitter 5, on the other hand. Segments 2 and 3 extend in the [011] direction on semiconductor substrate 11 and their free ends are provided with reflective faces 21 and 31, respectively, which have been produced by etching or splitting the crystal faces. The usable laser light is emitted from segment 1 in the [110] direction. The semiconductor substrate 11 of the semiconductor laser shown in cross section (FIG. 2) is composed of n-type indium phosphide. Either semiconductor substrate 11 or a buffer layer applied to it (not shown here) is provided with a holographic grating 121 in the region of beam splitter 5. The grating has a periodicity of the first or second order. Which one of the two periodicities is selected depends on the intended strength of the mutual coupling between waveguides 1 to 3. Above semiconductor substrate 11 or above the buffer layer, there follows layer 12 of n-type InGaAsP. It forms a waveguide zone which conducts light of a wavelength of 1.30 μm. Above this layer lies layer 13 of un-doped InGaAsP; it constitutes the laser-active zone which is transparent for light of a wavelength of 1.55 μm. Above layer 13, there follows layer 14 of p-type InP which also serves as covering layer and has a thickness of one micron. Layer 15 serves as contact layer; it is composed of p+ -type InGaAs and lies below metal layer 16. In the longitudinal and transverse directions, layers 14 to 16 are interrupted by troughs 18 which laterally define beam splitter 5. In the region of troughs 18 on the corner faces cut out of waveguides 1, 2, 3 and monitor diode 4, layer 14 has a height h0. Below and above beam splitter 5, electrodes 51, 52 are disposed which, by way of the flow of current and the dependence of the refractive index on the charge carrier concentration, serve to control transmission and reflection of the holographic grating 121--and thus the coupling between waveguides 1 to 3. On metal layer 16 and below the semiconductor substrate, waveguides 1 to 3 and monitor diode 4 are also provided with electrodes (not shown here) by which they are controlled. Segments 1 to 3 are operated in the forward direction and the monitor diode in the reverse direction; the monitor diode controls the injection currents for waveguides 1 to 3 so as to change their light emission. The modes of the emitted light may here be shifted over a wide range. The monomode emission may deviate up to 0.4% from the wavelength of 1.55 μm. And this deviation can be effected by continuous tuning of the injection currents. In order to couple sufficient light into beam splitter 5, segments 2 and 3 have a width from 150 to 200 μm. In them, layer 13 forms a so-called "broad-area laser". However, the laser-active zone of segment 1 (FIG. 2) has only a width of 2 μm. It constitutes a ridge waveguide. Segments 1, 2, 3 have the lengths L1, L2, L3, respectively (FIGS. 2, 3). In another embodiment, the beam splitter 5 of an interferometric semiconductor laser 20 is provided with a partially transparent mirror 5 (FIG. 4) instead of the holographic grating. Such a semiconductor laser 20 is created in that on this side of an angle bisector 1000 passing through the surface corresponding to beam splitter 5, a region I has a lower surface than a region II on the other side of angle bisector 1000. A sectional view (FIG. 5) corresponding to line A--A of FIG. 4 indicates that layer 14 in region I has a height h2 in the region of segments 1 and 2 and on the one half of the area corresponding to beam splitter 5, a height h1 in region II in the area of waveguide 3, monitor diode 4 and on the other half of beam splitter 5 and a height h0 outside of segments 1-3, monitor diode 4 and beam splitter 5. A contact layer is not provided. Segments 1 to 3, monitor diode 4 and beam splitter 5 in region II are equipped with metal layer 16. Several such identically constructed semiconductor lasers 20, 30, 40 (FIG. 6) are integrated on semiconductor substrate 11. They are offset relative to one another in the longitudinal and transverse direction so that the angle bisector 1000 of beam splitter 5 of semiconductor laser 20 also forms the angle bisector of the beam splitters 5 of the other two semiconductor lasers 10, 20, 30, 40. Since all beam splitters 5 have a square base cross section, they are intersected at an angle of 45�. In this case, all segments 1, 2, 3 include a ridge waveguide laser each provided with two laser-active zones having a width up to 3 μm. Due to the different thicknesses of regions I and II, they have different refractive indices nI and nII, respectively, which are averaged by way of semiconductor substrate 11 and layers 12 to 14. The difference in the refractive indices is a measure for the coupling of the laser light between segments 1 to 3. Depending on the desired coupling by beam splitter 5, layer 14 is etched to the corresponding height k1. On the basis of better coupling of the laser light between segments 1 to 3 offered by the etched beam splitter 5 compared to the holographic grating, segments 2 and 3 need not include any "broad-area lasers". Therefore, like segment 1, they include ridge waveguide lasers and have the same width as segment 1. On the other hand, the coupling of light effected by beam splitter 5 between waveguides 1 to 3 cannot be controlled electrically. Rather it is firmly predetermined by the step difference between regions I and II. Instead of the double heterostructure employed in the ridge waveguide lasers of segments 1 to 3, a third embodiment is provided with multi-quantum-well layers of which ten to twenty are superposed on one another in each segment 1, 2, 3 (FIG. 7). Instead of a single laser-active zone in layer 13 (see FIG. 5) ten to twenty layers are provided which are composed, for example, alternatingly of InGaAsP and InP. The production of such a semiconductor laser of multi-quantum-well layers is effected in that layer 12, the ten to twenty multi-quantum-well layers and layer 14 (FIG. 8) are epitaxially applied in succession on semiconductor substrate 11 or on a buffer layer (not shown here). Thereafter, the cross-shaped surface of the semiconductor laser is lithographically covered by a mask so that, in a subsequent implantation or diffusion step, the crystal structure exclusively of regions 70 to 73 (FIG. 7) is restructured by foreign atoms, e.g. zinc atoms or atoms of the material of which regions 70 to 73 are composed. Region II, as restructured by the atoms (FIG. 8), extends down to the depth of layer 12. In a second implantation or diffusion step, the crystal structure of region I exclusively is re-ordered a second time by means of atoms. In this way, segment 3 and monitor diode 4 have a different refractive index than segments 1 and 2. In this case, the strength of the restructuring is determined by the coupling between segments 1 and 2, on the one hand, and segment 3, on the other hand. Another semiconductor laser includes two beam splitters 55, 56 (FIG. 10). These beam splitters couple light out of segments 1 to 3 into three monitor diodes 41, 42 43. Monitor diode 41 controls the phase of the laser light. It regulates the current injected into waveguides 2 and 3. Monitor diode 42 controls the power of the laser light in that it regulates the intensity of the current injected into segment 1. The current generated by monitor diode 43 for regulation of the filter wavelength is also injected into segment 1. Beam splitters 55, 56 and segments 1 to 3 are separated from one another and from monitor diodes 41 to 43 by troughs 180 to 182 extending from the surface down to layer 14 which there has a height h1 (FIG. 11). Both beam splitters are provided with electrodes 550, 551 and 560, 561, respectively, by way of which the coupling can be controlled. Segments 1 to 3 and beam splitters 55, 56 are provided with a metal layer 16 (see also FIG. 2). Outside of segments 1 to 3, beam splitters 55, 56, monitor diodes 41 to 43 and troughs 180 to 182 disposed between them, there exists only the semiconductor substrate 11 whose surface has been partially etched away and there has a height h3. Instead of the layer structure according to FIG. 2, a semiconductor layer including two beam splitters 55, 56 can also be realized with quantum-well lasers (see FIG. 9). Such a semiconductor laser including quantum-well lasers can be produced particularly economically. All control signals required for the laser light are furnished by the integrated monitor diodes 41 to 43; there is no external control. Another semiconductor laser that is integrated on a semiconductor substrate 11 (FIG. 12) includes a beam splitter 5 in the form of a "Y" which connects segments 1 to 3 with one another and is separated from them by troughs 180 to 182. Segments 2 and 3, in turn, are separated from monitor diodes 41, 42 by troughs 183, 184. It will be understood that the above description of the present invention is susceptible to various modifications, changes and adaptations, and the same are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalents of the appended claims.

The Walking Dead
The Complete Third Season
Walking dead. Season three
Walking dead (Comic book)
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentThey seem to be on a roll. Still hard to watch sometimes and the character shuffling sometimes feels like it's at a Game of Thrones level. But, as they say: nothing succeeds like excess. I'm off to Season 4.
I felt Season 2 had some flaws, but Season 3 rivals the extraordinary first season. My wife and I couldn't stop watching the last four episodes in particular.
Cons that don't affect the enjoyability enough to take away a star:
--The zombies are too easy to kill.
--The producers of the series seem to go out of there way to show some unnecessary gore.
Word of advice, once you get your hands on this, make sure you have done all your chores, and that it's a long weekend. I pretty much watched this in one day, it's that viral!
I cannot get enough of this show. The zombies have been relegated to nuisance; the real danger posed now are from other human survivors. Rick and the crew continue to fight the good fight.
I would love to get more backstory on some of the characters.
I'm bummed at having to wait so long for season 4!
This season and season 4 are my favourites in this series thus far! Great show so far! :D
What makes the Walking Dead series stand out in the zombie film/TV genre, is the script writer pitches humans against humans, in addition to humans against zombies. This opens the story up to a range of emotions: love, hate, revenge, righteousness, evil, etc. Coupled with good make-up effect, you have a winning formula for a long-running horror series. Some key characters are killed off in each season, and new characters - very interesting ones - are introduced. Acting is top-notch. No wonder my family, and many others I am sure, just can't stop the addictive viewing process once it has begun.
If you start this series, be prepared to get them all!! It is addicting, and awesome. My family has been watching 3-4 episodes a night, because you can't turn it off! Trying to get caught up, so we can watch season 5!
The Walking Dead – The Complete Third Season – Big Fan, Big Fan ... need I say more? Doctor-at-Bass! Taylor A.
Another great season. Keep 'em coming. Can't say enough good things about Walking Dead.
I'm trying to figure out why this series is so compelling and must-see viewing. I think it's the characters, acting and storylines which incorporate more than basic good vs. evil into the story. It's the shade of meaning, making life decisions, when there's more nuance than just right vs. wrong. The writers have the chosen to present the characters with dilemmas which have excruciating consequences, no matter what they decide. For instance, most shows don't have the courage to kill off main characters, and though this can be painful for viewers, it's shows commitment to real character & story development. Can't wait for the season 4!

Audi has purchased Ducati Motorcycles. Not Volkswagen Group (Audi's parent) , but Audi, which is a subsidiary of Volkswagen Group. It seems a very good fit. It's early days and the announcement has just been made, but as a fan of motorcycles in general and Ducati in particular, we'rew all running around here like rats with a gold tooth in reaction to the announcement. Audi has the enthusiast spirit in its DNA to appreciate the magic of the Ducati Brand and empower it. It will ensure the resources are there to enable the brand to prosper. The Supervisory Boards of AUDI AG and Volkswagen AG approved the acquisition today in Hamburg. Hang in there Valentino, the cavalry are coming. Read More
The fact that most major manufacturers are now investing serious amounts of time and money in battery electric vehicle (BEV) development is proof positive that an electric automotive future will soon be upon us. While some, like Mitsubishi and Nissan, are already leading the charge onto the driveways of more and more folks around the globe, others prefer to take a more considered approach. Such is the case with Volkswagen. After giving us a glimpse of its plans for an electric Golf back in 2010, the company has now announced that a nine-month pilot scheme is to start next month in the U.S., to evaluate a prototype electric version of the company's popular hatchback ahead of commercial production.

Audi's newly revealed R18 e-tron quattro race car is designed to win the 2012 Le Mans 24 Hour Race. Whatsmore, the turbodiesel, electric flywheel hybrid, all-wheel drive prototype will ensure the 2012 race will be a battle of the hybrids (against Toyota's new TS030 ultracapacitor hybrid race car), and a fascinating study of new technologies under race conditions. The car uses electric motors to add 75 kW (102 bhp) of power to each front wheel, and a 375 kW (510 bhp) V6 TDI engine powers the rear wheels. The Williams Hybrid Power electric flywheel hybrid captures energy similarly to the unit Porsche used to such great effect in its GT3 R Hybrid last year with the rear axle powered conventionally, and the front wheels by electric motors. Audi calls it "the electrification of the drive" and it will be a story worth following as battle begins on the racetrack. Read More
Volkswagen's Polo BlueGT was shown at Geneva this week running a turbocharged 1.4-litre four-cylinder engine.The most interesting aspect of the motor, is that it is the first of the new EA211 series of engines which shut down two of the engine's four cylinder under light and medium loads (below 4,000 rpm, and at torque outputs of less than 100 Nm). Does it work? You bet 140 bhp, a top speed of 210 km/h and using the seven-speed DSG tranny, 4.5 litres per 100 km (62.8 mpg) consumption and CO2 emissions of 105 g/km. Read More
We first saw Volkswagen's plug-in petrol-electric hybrid Cross Coupé concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.

DoubleBack adds a sliding pod to VW's Transporter van
It was over thirty years ago that Volkswagen first started offering "pop tops" on its camper vans. In the years since, the soft-sided interior height-extenders have become a common sight on VW vans parked in campgrounds all over the world. Now, Welsh company Overlander Motorhomes is offering what it sees as the logical compliment to the pop top – it's the DoubleBack, a sliding insulated pod that extends the interior length of Volkwagen's T5 Transporter van.

When the likes of Jaguar, Porsche, Ford, GM, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Renault and Chrysler introduce a new model series, it is equally or more reliable than the model it replaces. Right? Wrong! New information has been released this week which indicates all of the above companies have replaced major models with less reliable models in the last decade - the worst three examples were 60%, 54% and 40% more likely to break down than their predecessor.

Following hot on the heels of Volkswagen's announcement of a five-door version of its up! subcompact vehicle, the Czech Republic-based Volkswagen subsidiary Skoda has announced that a five door version of its Citigo subcompact will make its public debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show in March. The three-door Citigo was introduced in Skoda's home market late last year, marking the company's first entry into the growing subcompact segment.

Her weight is down, but her RBC count is up; I am so happy. We have to continue her medications, but with this good news, I'm hoping we won't have to keep her on the medications as long as we originally thought. The vet said to up her food intake by 2/3. She's still eating her own....ew, you know. I don't know how to stop that other than to go out after she's 'gone' and throw it into the woods!! Anyway, this is great news~!
Eating her own feces could be just another side effect of her illness, or a result of medication. Glad the numbers went up! Hope she continues to improve.
I found this article on coprohagia and some vets will tell you to put meat tenderizer on the piles - after they potty. BUT with Sophie you may not want to increase her sodium intake at all. Also wondering - could you ask your vet if you can feed her raw liver? Very high in iron - would that increase her red blood count? Glad to hear our girl is well. Why Dogs Eat Poop: Definition of Coprophagia Coprophagia is the ingestion of poop that is neither accidental nor incidental. It is deliberate and habitual. Other abnormal canine eating issues include pica (eating of nonfood material), psychogenic water drinking (consuming more water than necessary for regular daily use), anorexia (starvation to the point of extreme, and deadly weight loss), and gorging (serious, unhealthy overeating). The focus here is on coprophagia and why dogs eat poop. But, youll see that dogs can have a variety of other eating problems. Interestingly, youll probably also notice that several of these eating problems are also found in humans, such as anorexia and gorging. Were kind of like our canine friends sometimes, arent we. Below there are 20 reasons listed why dogs eat poop. In addition, at the end of this article youll see a summarization of the reasons. Hopefully you will understand exactly why dogs eat poop so that you can solve the problem or take some action to improve the situation. Why Dogs Eat Poop: 20 Reasons 1. Your dog might be hungry. If your dog doesn't have access to food, he might eat poop. 2. Some dogs will eat poop to clean up an area like a housekeeper. This is most likely if your dog is confined to a crate or kennel, or when he's chained up or otherwise restricted. He's taking care of his space. 3. If your dog likes to carry poop, and then eat it, it could be genetics. Some dogs have instincts to carry stuff in their mouths. 4. Your dog might be eating poop because of parasites or worms. They can **** nutrients out of your dog, driving him to eat poop. It might also leave him extra hungry because of the lack of proper fuel. 5. Your dog might be eating cat poop or other animal poop to get key nutrients and minerals not available in his own food. 6. Some dogs will simply eat poop to pass the time. Dogs will eat poop because they are bored or lonely. It can be a sign of neglect. 7. Your dog might eat poop because he's anxious, nervous or otherwise upset. Stress will drive animals to do odd things. 8. Some dogs will eat poop to hide the evidence. If you punish your dog for pooping, he might eat it to stop you from getting angry. 9. If your dog has puppies, she might eat puppy poop. This is an instinct to hide the poop from predators. Poop is evidence. Getting ride of it keeps her puppies safe. 10. Some young dogs and puppies will eat poop as a novelty. That is, they'll eat poop as an experiment. They don't know better. 11. If your dog watches you pick up poop, he might learn to do the same. This is called allelomimetic behavior. Your dog observes you and learns from you, by putting the poop in his mouth you put poop in a bag. 12. Your dog might see others dogs eating poop. From this, they learn to eat poop too. 13. Many dogs simply like the taste of poop. This obviously doesn't make sense to dog owners but that's irrelevant. Some dog like to eat it and that's that. It's warm, moist, and very much like what your dog was given as a very young puppy. 14. If your dog food lacks key nutrients, he might eat poop. Your dog is trying to get "food" with nutrients any way possible, even from his own poop. 15. Sometimes dog poop seems like dog food. This can happen when dog food is low quality and includes materials that are easily passed and not absorbed by your dog. When the dog poops, it seems to be very much like the food he just consumed! 16. In some cases, dogs will eat poop if they are given too much food. This is especially true if your dog's diet is high in fat. 17. Some dogs will eat poop to gain attention. Many dog owners get very upset when their dog eats poop, which means the dog gets attention. This is a wonderful opportunity for your dog to interact with you, although it is because of negative attention. 18. It is possible that some dogs will eat the poop of other, more dominant dogs. Your dog might be more submissive than other dogs, resulting in strange poop eating behavior. This seems to occur more in households with multiple dogs where dominance and submission is a factor. Obviously this doesn't explain much about dogs eating cat poop or other animal poop. 19. It is possible that your dog wants to eat more than one time per day. If you only feed your dog once per day, and your dog eats poop, it could be an indication they want to eat more frequently. 20. In some cases, your dog will eat poop by accident. Dogs are curious and will try to eat almost anything, including poop. Dogs explore the world through taste and smell, much more than humans.
Wow. Starbie.....I never knew there could be so many reasons for a dog to eat poop! BUT as for the "eating disorders", yeah I've seen that. We had a basset years ago, Baby was her name.......she'd go for days without eating, even when tempted by people food. (I tried everything) Kept having the vet check her out from stem to stern......nothing wrong. She just wouldn't eat. Ate barely enough to keep going. Betsy has a thing for the litter box that drives me nuts. So we keep a child gate up at the bathroom door so Bruce can get to his box but Betsy can't. Molly's never shown an interest. I know something else they forgot to add to the list though......... Dogs will eat people poop. Well, more specifically, baby poop. If Nichole forgets to bag a diaper and get it outside, Betsy will dig it out of the trash and clean the poop out of it before shredding it all over the house. Ewwwwwww!! Fortunately this has only been a very rare event. That stuffing in the diapers scares me. I don't want her injesting it. Glad Sophia's rbc count is up. I was also wondering if you fed her some liver if the iron would help her. Hope she continues to improve. Hugs
Even though her iron levels are normal, she is still anemic - they are not related, actually, which is strange to me too. And since whenever I give her the iron supplement the vet provided, poor Sophie pukes it all up along with her meal, I don't do that anymore. Instead, I've been supplementing her diet with raw chicken livers and using dehydrated liver for treats. She loves them and the vet approved this. Also, as a 20lb dog her diet was 2/3 Cup in the morning and two chicken necks at night. Since she dropped all her weight and is now at 15lbs, we've upped her intake to 3/4 Cup in the morning, 1/2 Cup at noon, and the two chicken necks at night, with lots of liver sides/treats. And when I give her the medications, I make a little peanut butter and bread ball for the added protein. Her food is very well and scientifically balanced raw food, meat and bones. I've decided to go back to feeding her as you would a puppy, where you're trying to make sure they gain approrpriate weight and getting all their nutrients. So, tonight I'm picking up some raw oats and plain whole fat yogurt. I will mix some of that into her morning and noon mixture of meat and veggies for some added bulk. I'm hoping that with the added nutrients and fats, this will help with the poop eating. She only eats her own poop and I'm pretty sure it's due to the prednisone...it's making her ravenous, which is not unusual. Also, it's very likely that with the anemia, she may not be getting enough nutrients, hence my drive to bulk up her meals. Thanks, Star, for that illuminating description of the many reasons dogs eat their own poop. I almost puked. Several times. So, yeah, thanks for that, lol. Our other dog Nala doesn't eat cat feces, she just likes to roll around in it. Mmmmmm, bath time!
That's good news Jo! I'm glad your Sophie is doing better. Ew...about the eating poo. Ick. My dog loves the deer droppings in the woods. I keep reminding my husband about that when she starts licking him to death......ICKY, ICKY, SKEEVY!
Good news, Jo! You can buy something to sprinkle on her food that will make her poop taste bad. It doesn't taste bad while she's eating it, but once it's digested and has gone through all the acids and enzymes etc. it changes the flavor and tastes awful once it's out of the body. I don't know if it requires a scrip or not.

Mr. Gunn
Has anyone played with
? I'm currently training my set of feeds, and haven't quite got to where the recommendations make up for the web-only interface. Friendfeed still beats it.

intriguing, what feeds do you put in there? I'm trying with TOCs of journals. How do you compare FF with feedzero? Didn't know FF had bayesian or other algorithmic filters. -
FF doesn't have bayesian filters. They do use a ranking for their "best of day" feature, but it mostly comes from user activity, so the comparison is between purely algorithmic rank and social filtering. So far, social filtering FTW! -
Mr. Gunn
As far as what feeds I'm putting in, I just uploaded my whole OPML file. Took some time to sync, but works pretty well. -
Mr. Gunn
Well social filtering is great if it's things people are reading, but with Tocs of journals, doubtful FF can help you filter. -
I'm not using bayesian filters for my "normal" rss blog feeds, think social filtering will work better, but for tocs of journals, where i'm looking for articles in my research area, i dont know any peers in this area, so bayesian filter is the only alternative -
But it can! If my contacts are reading the same journals I am, and feeding in here things they're bookmarked using a bookmarking service, it brings those things to my attention. -
Mr. Gunn
Yes, that's my problem, I don't know any contacts working in the same area (besides my supervisor!), a problem facing many starting grad student, so we can't rely on social filters. Also i suppose it's a lazy way to prioritize journals, if you want to at least glance at them if you dont trust your social filters. -
Deepak had some comments on learning to trust your social filters a while back, but yeah, it's hard sometimes. In other news...citeulike has a recommendation feature and Mendeley's great recommendations feature is coming soon. -
Mr. Gunn
Here's the question, are these recommendations based solely on social activity? What if you are working in an area that no-one else is (very likely particularly these days where a small percentage of people are only on such networks). Machine learning techniques like bayesian filtering would be very helpful. -
Yes, that's certainly true. I always think of it as Bayesian filtering helps you find the best stuff you already know you like, whereas social search helps you find stuff you didn't know you were looking for, -
Mr. Gunn
I haven't, but now I'm going to. Looks interesting. -
Bill Hooker
In case you are interested in bayesian filtering, the other alternative is suxtor
, which ls less commercial. There's a interesting project going along
. -
I think I might have originally seen that from one of your tweets, actually. -
Mr. Gunn
Yes. I'm working on a blog post on bayesian filtering of rss feeds actually.. several alternatives -
I keep hearing rumors of a product that will blow services like feedzero away, but haven't seen so much as a screenshot yet. -
Mr. Gunn
You can setup your own install, or just use the one hosted by Heriot-Watt University. The people there are pretty interested in feedback. main disadvantage so far, can't import opml! Also feeds needs to be approved by admin. -
No OPML import is a major dealbreaker for me, unfortunately. -
Mr. Gunn
There's a beta- invitation only feedscrub/ rss bayesian filter, you can get the invitation code on some site, techcrunch or something. 1 got 5 invites if anyone wants them. the free version does only 5 feeds though, but the premium allows opml import. Also playing with hacks like converting rss feeds to POP/IMAP/NNTP then using POPFILE for bayesian filtering. -
Converting posts to emails and filtering using the more well-developed tools available for spam is a interesting idea, but it's kinda hacky, isn't it? My income of feed items is way larger than emails - wouldn't that make popfile choke? -
Mr. Gunn
Yeah it's hacky. I've used Popfile for a couple of years in the past before i switched mostly to gmail, i remember going on holiday and coming back and it could handle hundreds of mails incoming at a time (think the mail server timed out first), but it's possible your rss feeds exceeds that by far. God knows i have thousands of unread articles in google reader. -
Yeah, thousands, at least. There are whole categories of feeds I don't read directly, only filter/search. -
Mr. Gunn

After two consecutive well-received R&B projects, singer Mario is changing up his style. According to a source close to his camp, the Baltimore native will be going with a dance/pop vibe on his next album. Currently untitled with no set release date, the LP will feature material like Green Light, a record that was recorded last month. Produced by Jazze Pha, the song features Thriller-esque elements, which allow the young singer to channel his inner Michael Jackson. After several long delays, Mario's third studio album, Go, finally reached store shelves this past December; he hopes that his next project will be out at the same time this year. From the sound of things, he might get a green light.

Did you miss out on The Lyric in Real Time, TINARS event for Matthew Tierney's science-minded poetry collection Probably Inevitable — or do you just feel like travelling back in time to relive it? We've got video from the mind-expanding discussion between Matthew and poet Ken Babstock, with thought-provoking commentary on perceptions of time by author Claudia Hammond.
On Wednesday, March 28, you're invited to join our spring titles' 'coming out' party at The Dance Cave in Toronto's Annex neighbourhood. This semi-annual event is a much-beloved gathering of Toronto book lovers. We promise you a night of new and invigorating Canadian literature (and, hopefully, a little dancing).
With the Spring 2012 launch, we unleash five staggering works upon the Canadian reading public:
Acclaimed poet and literary blogger Sina Queyras will launch her very first novel, the stunning Autobiography of Childhood, in Montreal on Thursday, September 15, at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly. She'll read from the brand-new book and answer a few questions from host Jason Camlot.
Autobiography of Childhood Launch featuring Sina Queyras hosted by Jason Camlot Thursday, September 15, 2011
In advance of Coach House and Three O'Clock Press's Tribute to Jones event, Sue Carter Flinn wrote a story about Jones's legacy and revival at the Quill & Quire Omni. Here's an excerpt:
When he was alive, Daniel Jones had a small but hardcore following. Now, 17 years after his death from suicide, the Toronto literary and punk icon is being celebrated with reissues of two out-of-print titles.
It's been months since the last Coach House launch, and we hope our absence has made your hearts grow fonder. On Wednesday, April 27, Revival at 783 College Street will transform into a den of book lust as Coach House launches two new novels, two debut poetry collections and one amazing poetry re-issue!
Fall in love with Coach House's poetry and fiction titles all over again:
Suzette Mayr launches her highly anticipated new novel Monoceros to a hometown Calgary crowd at 100 Wines (1109 Olympic Way SE). Also launch a book that night is Rosemary Nixon, author of Kalila (Goose Lane Editions). In a night hosted by Writers' Guild of Alberta program coordinator Samantha Warwick, the two novelists will read from their new novels and sign books.
This May, Coach House Books publishes Shawn Micallef's first book Stroll: Psychogeographic Walking Tours of Toronto, featuring illustrations and maps by Marlena Zuber. We're holding a rollicking launch party on Tuesday, May 18, and everyone's invited!
Jen Currin launches her brand-new collection, The Inquisition Yours, in Vancouver with a big event at Cafe Montmartre on March 27, featuring readers and bands all night.
Join us as Montreal's Snare Books and Coach House celebrate their Fall 2009 titles at The Green Room (5386 St-Laurent).

Congratulations, Jocelyne and Rhonda!
Coach House Books is thrilled to announce that And the Birds Rained Down by Jocelyne Saucier (translated by Rhonda Mullins) will be championed by Martha Wainwright (!) in this year's Canada Reads competition. The announcement was made this morning on CBC's Radio Q (listen to the full audio).
Have you heard the news? Coach House is starting a book club! We're calling it — get ready — the Coach House Book Club.
Why are we starting a book club, you ask? Well, we feel this isn't so much a book club as it is a gathering of the Coach House community and those who want to get to know their favourite author in an informal, relaxed setting — but just calling it a 'book club' seemed like the clearest way of encapsulating all of that.
Congratulations, Sina Queyras and Rachel Zolf!
The finalists for the 27th Annual Lambda Literary Awards were announced this morning, and both Sina (MxT) and Rachel (Janey's Arcadia) are nominated in the category of Lesbian Poetry; we couldn't be more excited or more proud!
