Sapphire Toxic HD4850 Review
With so many HD4850 models out now, what's the best one to buy? With the heating problems that many of the HD4850 cards with reference coolers have, the best bet would be one with an aftermarket solution already on the card. There are starting to be more and more of these available, as the AMD/ATI partners are fielding the many complaint calls. One such card available right now is the Sapphire Toxic Edition HD4850. Not only does it come with an aftermarket cooling solution, it comes pre-overclocked to take advantage of the additional cooling capability of the aftermarket Zalman heatpipe cooler. Is this well known cooling solution going to stand up to the heat load from the Toxic Edition HD4850? We will have to see. We have all seen the performance numbers from a multitude of HD4850 video cards; the performance per dollar spent has been the selling point on this series of cards. With a price just slightly higher than the reference card, will the Toxic separate itself from the masses and provide that added performance for the added dollars? Let's find out.
Closer Look:
The simple, basic, black themed box reminds me a little bit of the Metallica black album, with the alien as a ghosted image that's barely visible. The front panel proudly states that this is something special by way of the Toxic logo. Highlights include the HDMI capability and the bundled suite of software that includes Futuremark's latest, 3DMark Vantage. The rear panel highlights the features and capabilities of the HD4850, as well as some of the awards that Sapphire has earned for its products.
Opening this batch of toxicity, you find a plain cardboard box. Inside, the Toxic is shipped with 2 layers of protection - foam on the outside, as well as a bubble wrap anti-static bag. Under the foam layer, you will find the large bundle of accessories that Sapphire has provided.
The bundle includes software from CyberLink, Futuremark, the driver disk, Ruby ROM, DVI to D-sub, and DVI to HDMI adapters. Also making appearances are a CrossFire bridge connector, a power adapter, and several adapters to send the video signal out to a display. All in all, a pretty substantial offering.
Now we know what comes with the card, so let's have a look at what makes the Toxic so special.

Alzheimer's Association launches new Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters education campaign
The Alzheimer's Association has kicked off its Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters campaign, a multi-faceted national education effort to increase awareness of the 10 warning signs of Alzheimer's and the benefits of early detection and early diagnosis. Early detection, diagnosis and intervention are vital because they provide individuals the best opportunities for treatment, support and planning for their future.
Updated warning signs help with early detection
As part of its public education effort, the Alzheimer's Association has worked with a wide range group of experts to update its 10 warning signs of Alzheimer's to make them more current and user-friendly. The comprehensive review process included feedback from health professionals, clinicians, scientists and people with dementia.

Objectives of management: mastering complexity
Wednesday, October 7, 2009
Do you feel that your work as a manager is getting more and more complicated? You are almost certainly right. In an increasingly complex world society, the advancing complexity of business management is inevitable. It's been visible for at least four decades, and no doubt will continue indefinitely. You can follow one cause (and effect) […]Continue reading...

I know this is silly in so many ways, but I'll ask anyway.
Is there a way (a dictionary perhaps) that might help me with using era appropriate words?
By era, I mean everything between 1st c. AD and say 15th c. ? I know this is broad, I know people used different language according to education, class etc. I'd like what is called Μεσαιωνική Ελληνική Δημὠδης Γλώσσα. Of course, this term brings to mind more 10th c., so it's not koine, which I also like a lot.
Ok, I am confused. That's why I am asking this.
For example I wanted to say "spring" in another post, so I said εαρ, but then I also used ανοιξις, but when did that word start to mean spring and not opening... you get the point.
Is there a way to pinpoint a certain era, or am I doomed to use words (and grammar!) in a frankenstein sort of way? I wouldn't want to create monsters, would I? This is the kind of thing that led to katharevousa, a style that (with few brilliant exceptions like Παπαδιαμάντης ) produced awful, awful things.
Here is a link http://www.greek-language.gr/greekLang/medieval_greek/kriaras/index.html
Any ideas?

from the weekend
We love books around here and all gave/received some for Christmas. Books are always the best gift, even if it's just a picture book. You can usually buy them inexpensively, they never go out of style, they teach you new things and look great when piled on a shelf.
They are just really not fun to pack up and move, I know from experience.
And the Muuto Unfold Pendant light, that's a pretty nice gift too. ;)

Selectmen pick Rindge intermin town administratorBy MEGHAN PIERCE
Union Leader Correspondent
November 21. 2013 9:01PM
RINDGE — Selectmen announced plans at their meeting Wednesday night to temporarily hire former planning director Jane Pitt to fill the role of interim town administrator.
Town administrator Carlotta Pini was recently forced to resign.
Pitt was planning director in Rindge from 2007 to 2011. Since then she has been a land use and zoning consultant working from her home in Marlborough.
Chairman Sam Seppala said Pitt is set to start Dec. 2 and is contracted to work through March 31 no more than 25 hours a week.
Pitt will not only fill the role of interim town administrator, but also help selectmen assess the permanent position, he said.
"She will be working with all of us to determine the exact needs of that position," Seppala said. "A lot of people in town know Jane and she's excited to be working with us on that."
At the announcement several town employees said Pitt is not only "sweet" and "smart," but has a law background that would be an asset to the town in her new position.
On Thursday, former Selectman Jed Brummer, who served on the board when Pitt was planning director, said with budget season fast approaching it was smart of officials to hire Pitt.
"She was a good planner," Brummer said. "She's an attorney, so we had kind of two for one. A land planner that had the education to interpret ordinances, statues and what not. I think she'll be able to fill the interim administrative position quite well."
On Monday, selectmen and Pini released a joint statement saying she had resigned the day she left, Oct. 18.
In the resignation agreement between Pini and board members the resignation was described as "forced." Why she was forced to resign remains unanswered.
The agreement states that if the town is questioned by its unemployment insurance provider or N.H. Employment Security the town would respond by saying, "The employee faced discharge if she didn't resign. We consider it a forced resignation, and we will not dispute her eligibility for unemployment insurance benefits."
The agreement says the town is paying Pini a lump sum payment of $35,000 and will continue her medical, dental, short- and long-term disability and life insurance through April 18.
The agreement binds officials and Pini to "keep confidential the terms and conditions of this Agreement."
Pini had worked for the town for a total of 12 years and as town administrator for the past seven. She was earning $71,000 a year at the time of her departure.

These notes are from dinner at a friend's house a little while back.
N.V. Domaine Tissot (André & Mireille now Stéphane) Crémant du Jura Brut. This sparkler presents a crisp aromatic profile of blanched almonds, struck match, stony minerality, copper pot, peach pit and ginger. In the mouth, it features a nice combination of toasted nut, almond, mineral, red berry, poached apple and pear flavors riding atop a little sliver of sweetness offset by a saline and graphite-infused finish. It is an interesting and refreshing way to kick off the evening.
2010 Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé. There is an intense flintiness on the nose of this wine, with shale and schist coming to mind over and again, along with more subtle notes of toasted orange peel, strawberries and canteloupe. On the palate, it has great balance and flow and goes wonderfully with the various starter foods on the counter. Flavors of strawberry, grapefruit and juniper combine with a strong mineral streak and a tart acidity to give this good energy to go with a seamless texture. It is pretty young still, but really opens up with food.
2007 Williams Selyem Pinot Noir Russian River Valley. This wine has a boisterous bouquet laden with aromas of wild mixed berries, currants, smoke, anise, soft chalk, clotted cream and shaved nutmeg still showing some oak influences. In the mouth, it is again brambly berry-driven, but warm and ripe with its flavors of mulberries, cola, candy cigarettes and brown barrel spices. The structure is pretty open and there really aren't any notable tannins to worry about, so it is smooth and easy to drink despite probably benefitting from a few more years in the cellar to better integrate some of the wood.
1998 Château Maucoil Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The color here is still a healthy dark ruby. The nose is fresh and crunchy--with a leafy, earth-driven bouquet featuring aromas of herbs de provence, lavender, forest fire, white pepper and green tobacco leaf to go along with red currant and cranberry fruit. In the mouth, it features an intriguing streak of pine sap and menthol riding atop the understated core of cassis and liquid cherry flavors. It is not heavy or rich at all, instead coming across as sinewy, controlled and old-fashioned with a finishing kick of salty minerality. I find myself really enjoying its low-key nature and subtle fruit-to-earth balance.

Key committees in the General Assembly have advanced proposed revisions to Virginia's two-year budget that include opening a mothballed state prison in Grayson County.
The original request called for opening the prison by 2014, but a House of Delegates committee wants it to be operational later this year.
Republican-controlled budget committees from the Senate and House of Delegates produced plans on Feb. 3 that build upon Gov. Bob McDonnell's amendments to the state's two-year, $86.5 billion budget.

Conference Centers
Every dollar we spend on comprehensive year-round wellness programs—preventive health— saves us $3 dollars. Yet 86 % of our health care dollars treat chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes, many of which are preventable. That's why The California Endowment is dedicated to changing the culture in California so that communities are designed to support health instead of disease.
The first step is ensuring that Californians have access to affordable, quality health coverage. Through its efforts in 2014, The Endowment's Get Covered campaign helped support more than 2 million Californians newly enroll into Medi-Cal, 38 % of which were Latino. Millions are still uninsured, and The California Endowment continues to not only work to enroll Californians but to educate them on how to take advantage of their care.
The Endowment will continue to support thefight for health and justice for all Californians. For a healthy California, it's crucial that everyone understands the importance of preventive health. The California Endowment will continue to work to expand access to health coverage and preventive care for all Californians, including the undocumented.
The California Endowment wants to expand Californians' access to healthful lifestyle choices and adequate health insurance so all families can know peace of mind, regardless of where they live or where they were born.
We need to ensure all Californians have access to quality, affordable health coverage. At the same time, we need to encourage them to participate actively in their own health and fight for the health of their community.In 2014 and 2015, nearly 5 million Californians enrolled in Covered California and Medi-Cal.
The California Endowment has had great success enrolling the uninsured, but there is a long road ahead. Millions of Californians remain uninsured but may qualify for Medi-Cal or financial assistance through Covered California. California has had great success with the ACA, and while more Latinos have health coverage now than ever before, the Latino share of the uninsured rose from 52 % to 61 % after the first year of full ACA implementation.
Barriers to coverage include, but are not limited to, language, lack of knowledge, and fear of deportation. The California Endowment's Asegúrate/Get Covered and #Health4All efforts aim to decrease these barriers to health care by working with community and media partners like the California Primary Care Association and Univision Communications to educate Californians on the importance of health coverage and how to gain access.
We seek to lift up Californians across the state to empower them to take action and enroll in and renew their health coverage. For many of the remaining uninsured families, health coverage means low- or no-cost check-ups and exams, medication, and dental care. These preventive services lead to a healthy, successful life and we must ensure that families take advantage every year.
Health not only happens in a doctor's office—it also happens in our homes, schools, and communities. The California Endowment aims to shift traditional thinking away from treating patients only when they are sick to supporting preventive health within communities so that they can lead healthy, happy, and productive lives. Beyond enrolling Californians in coverage, we have to ensure that everyone understands the importance of preventive care because a healthy Californian means a healthier California.
Health Happens Here with Prevention.
Preventive medicine—meaning screenings, regular check-ups, vaccines —saves lives.
There's a lot we can do to educate the public about health care opportunities. And more still we can do to educate those who are confused or fearful of enrolling in health coverage. The quickest way to save lives in California is to provide everyone with access to affordable, quality health care. We must encourage all residents who qualify for health coverage benefits but haven't signed up to enroll.
Through our education and enrollment campaigns, The California Endowment is working to encourage millions of vulnerable Californians to enroll and renew their health coverage, and ensure that those who already have coverage take maximum advantage by accessing their care.
The California Endowment has targeted the largest uninsured groups in California—Latinos and lower-income families—for an education and enrollment campaign. We're also targeting 18 to 26-year-olds, who may not be aware that it's never too soon to enroll in health coverage. This work will continue with the campaign expanding to encourage the newly enrolled to renew their coverage while educating about the importance of practicing preventive care.
The ACA did much to expand access to health care, but we believe that Californians should have access to affordable, quality care no matter their immigration status. The California Endowment's #Health4All campaign highlights the important contributions undocumented Californians make to our state's communities and economy. It's cheaper to take care of healthy Californians than treat them only when they're sick, so why would it be different for undocumented Californians?
The California Endowment works to promote health, with an emphasis on prevention in all our projects. We promote a broader view of health—health happens in schools, neighborhoods and with prevention. We want to bring clean water and physical activity back to schools. We're working to make neighborhoods safer and healthier places where people can walk, bike, and jog without fear. We see a bright future and we're working with and investing inpeople just like you to make it happen.

All vehicles sold in the United States have a unique drive-train identifier called the "Test Group" or "Engine Family Number". This number allows owners, parts suppliers, and service providers to determine specifications and installed emissions control equipment of motor vehicles. Because many vehicles may have several different configurations, this number will provide specific information about the emissions control system and exact standards that a vehicle was designed to meet.
The Vehicle Emission Control Information label is located in the engine compartment in a clearly visible position, most often directly on the underside of the hood. The following diagram can help you locate your vehicles label.
Here is an example of what the VECI label might look like. Each manufacturer's label looks a little different, but they all have the same basic information, including the test group or engine family number.
Auto manufacturers might use the same engine in many different vehicle models, or they may use several different engines within the same vehicle model. The test group number identifies which engine is used, and it is important because a vehicle's emissions are certified by test group. So, two seemingly identical vehicles may have very different pollutant levels because their engines may be different.
Typically, vehicles sold in California and states that have adopted California's emissions regulations will have cleaner engines (identified by their test group number) than those sold in other states.
If you are considering buying a used vehicle that you think might have a clean

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fidelity Investments® today introduced a new Risk & Compliance Hub for broker-dealer clients of its correspondent clearing business, National Financial®. The Risk & Compliance Hub is integrated into the award-winning2 Streetscape workstation. It combines Streetscape's proprietary pre-trade modules with SunGard's® Protegent suite of post-trade surveillance solutions, including automated trade review, anti-money laundering, employee trading as well as security and fraud protection.
The Risk & Compliance Hub also features a social media oversight capability, which can help make it easier for financial advisors to engage with and attract clients on social networking sites like Facebook®, LinkedIn® and Twitter®.
Risk and compliance issues are top of mind for financial advisors. A recent Fidelity survey3 revealed that 75 percent of financial advisors were concerned that shifts in the regulatory and compliance environment will make their jobs more difficult. In the past 12 months alone4, 25 percent of financial advisors report having spent more time managing regulatory and compliance issues.
Time dedicated to managing regulatory issues, as well as concerns about compliance, may also be keeping financial advisors from engaging in new communications techniques such as social media. Of financial advisors surveyed, only 12 percent used Facebook and 6 percent used Twitter for professional purposes.
Yet, 42 percent said that financial advisors who do not embrace emerging communications channels like social media are missing out. An estimated five million high-net-worth investors are currently tapping into social media for financial planning and investment research activities5.
"Broker-dealers face a growing array of challenges in managing the evolving compliance and risk landscape. Simply keeping pace with required reporting and monitoring can make it difficult for firms to focus on offering compliance around new communications strategies like social media," said Richard N. Hart III, head of platform technology for National Financial.
"The new Risk & Compliance Hub enhancement to the Streetscape workstation may allow broker-dealers to more confidently operate in today's risk and compliance environment while also taking advantage of new marketing channels."
Leveraging social media is particularly important for engaging the next generation of investors. Recent research by Fidelity Investments6 underscored this, showing that 34 percent of Gen X/Y investors felt it was important for their advisors to have a social media presence.
A Single, Automated Risk and Compliance Resource
Built to operate as a single, automated and centralized compliance and surveillance solution to monitor transactional and operational activity within a firm, the Risk & Compliance Hub combines Streetscape's proprietary pre-trade modules with SunGard's® Protegent suite of post-trade tools into workflows that can help protect a broker-dealer's business integrity. This comprehensive solution is designed to help firms manage risk more efficiently and with more cost predictability. Key features include:
- Social Media Surveillance —Can help enable firms to monitor and archive activity and content posted to social networking Web sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, no matter where or from what device the post was made.
- Pre-Trade Rules Engine —Evaluates orders submitted to mitigate operational and financial risks and aids in analyzing and managing trading and compliance processes, real-time pre-trade order review with real-time order alerts7.
- Post-Trade Sales Practice Review—Can help automate review of client trade activity against regulatory guidelines and a firm's risk posture.
- Security and Fraud Protection —Can help manage access, protect user IDs, prevent fraudulent trading.
- Anti–Money Laundering —Can help strengthen ability to analyze and detect transaction patterns indicative of potentially suspicious activity with a customer's profile, based on USA PATRIOT Act and Bank Secrecy Act guidelines.
- Employee Trading —Can help save time by automating compliance with personal trading regulations pertaining to employee activities, Investment Company Institute recommendations, Sarbanes-Oxley, and a firm's specific code of ethics.
"The breadth and flexibility of our Web-based solution can help reduce the burden on compliance staff for the manual, day-to-day management of technology and data," said Hart. "This not only improves the advisor and compliance experience, it also helps Chief Information Officers and Chief Compliance Officers enhance operational efficiency by streamlining costs and resource planning."
Continuation of Fidelity's Multi-Year Technology Investment Strategy
Delivering on National Financial's multi-year strategy to deploy the industry's most advanced technology platform for brokers and investors, the new Streetscape Risk & Compliance Hub follows the recent roll-out of a next-generation client householding tool and iPad® app for Streetscape®. Previous enhancements also include last year's launch of myStreetscape® mobile apps and a completely revamped end investor portal.
The ongoing introduction of new capabilities is part of the continuing investment in the Streetscape workstation which was named by Aite Group as the "Broker Workstation Leader" for 2012. The Streetscape workstation is designed to help increase broker productivity, drive investor satisfaction and collaboration, and make home offices more efficient.

CANNES WATCH: Look of the day: Cate Blanchett
CANNES, France (AP) — Radiant Academy Award-winner Cate Blanchett broke the fashion mold with panache at Friday's "How to Train Your Dragon 2" screening at Cannes in a multi-colored, bejeweled bodice and a chic black pleated floor length chiffon skirt, courtesy of Givenchy.
While Cannes is a mainstay of va-va-voom ball gowns, Blanchett stayed ahead of the fashion pack by thinking outside the box. Her bold look got her noticed for all the right reasons — sapphire chandelier Chopard earrings added a touch of class.
The colorful, tropical plume embellishments on the bust, taken from a fall-winter 2014 ready-to-wear look by Riccardo Tisci, also nicely mirrored the dragon-theme of Dreamworks' latest animated picture, for which she lends her vocal talents.

Two goals from Jo and a strike from Neymar put the Selecao 3-0 in front at half-time and second-half efforts from Ramires, Alexandre Pato and Luiz Gustavo added gloss to a resounding victory.
After dominating the opening exchanges, it took Brazil just eight minutes to open the scoring.
Neymar found Bernard at the back post and after his volley hit the woodwork, Jo was on hand to slam home the rebound from close range.
The second arrived in the 33rd minute, when Paulinho seized on a loose pass from Brett Holman. Maicon moved the ball forward quickly to Bernard, who crossed for Jo to net again.
Less than two minutes later, Brazil made it 3-0 and put the result beyond any doubt.
Ramires' slide-rule pass in behind the Australia defence allowed Neymar to ease past Ryan McGowan and the Barcelona forward raced away to slip a cool finish beyond Mark Schwarzer.
Maxwell replaced the injured Marcelo at left-back for the second half and it was the substitute who supplied the cross for Brazil's fourth, as he picked out Ramires to head beyond Schwarzer in the 58th minute.
A beautifully crafted move involving two more substitutes then engineered Brazil's fifth on 73 minutes. Hernanes scooped the ball over Australia's backline, with Neymar cutting the ball back to Pato, who back-heeled the ball into the back of the net.
More punishment arrived with seven minutes to go, when Luiz Gustavo exchanged passes with Neymar before slamming a strike from distance beyond Schwarzer.
In a worrying subtext for the Brazilian government ahead of the World Cup, there were renewed clashes between protesters and police before the match, although not on the scale of the unrest that marked the Confederations Cup in June.

He said it was the stupidest thing he ever did. He said that was Mel Karmazin's idea. He said he went along with it. Howard said at some point he gets tired and worn down. Howard said he would like to just do it at 7 but everyone freaks out. Howard said there is no rhyme or reason to it. He said it makes no sense. He said it seems important to everyone else so he doesn't want to be called not a team player. Howard said people will say he doesn't have eye of the tiger. He said if he didn't have that then he wouldn't have to work anymore. He said he enjoys this job. Robin asked if he's gotten a call from the guy who took Mel's spot. Howard said he did get a call from the guy. He said he wished the guy the best with his new job. Howard said the guy was working there and he's met him a few times before but he didn't remember that. Howard said his name is Jim Meyer. Howard said he hasn't had to sit down and talk to him yet. Howard said he's not sure what he would talk to him about. Howard said he has a lot to say if he does want to talk to him. He said he thinks he could help him out with the company and they could help him out too. Robin said he might have to do that. Howard said the past couple of years it's been us vs. them there. Howard said he's not sure why that is. He said he has thoughts on how the company could do even better. Howard said it's always useless to talk to those guys though. Howard said he could help but they don't really want to do anything. Howard said he heard that Jim is a great guy so that's really good. Howard said he's a shareholder in the company so that's good. Howard said he thinks that terrestrial radio is dead. He said they keep thinking they're going to be on top. Robin said they think they'll always be there. Howard said he thinks they will. Howard said his daughter has an iPhone and never listens to regular radio. He said that kids don't want to hear commercials so they want to get new music on YouTube and services like this. Howard said the kids get it from different places and it's not terrestrial radio. Howard said when you're driving around in your car you'll listen to FM if that's all you've got. Howard said these days they have satellite radio installed. Robin said she doesn't really listen to regular radio. She said on occasion she will for news or traffic. Howard said he thinks he made the right move coming there to do radio. He said he thinks they're better off. When they signed up they only had 400,000 listeners. He said people thought he was insane and now they have 22 million subscribers. He said they're doing great. Howard said there are so many alternatives to regular radio now.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State John Kerry calls Saturday's assault on at a shopping mall in Kenya's capital "an enormous offense against everybody's sense of right and wrong."
Kerry, who is in New York for meetings at the United Nations, describes the attackers as "ruthless and completely reckless terrorists."
He spoke Sunday with Somalia's foreign minister and U.N. ambassador. The Somalia-based, al-Qaida-linked group al-Shabab has claimed responsibility for the attack on the upscale Westgate Mall in Nairobi.
State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf says U.S. law enforcement, military and civilian personnel in Nairobi are providing advice and assistance to the Kenyan authorities.
She says five Americans were among the scores of people injured in the attack by Islamic extremists, but the U.S. has no reports of any American deaths.

BUCKEYE BUZZ: Boren helps put a band-aid on OSU linebacking corps
- Written by MATT HAMMOND
There are not too many big-time football programs that have to move a player from one side of the ball to another during the season. But that is exactly the situation Ohio State's coaches were in after encountering problems at the linebacker position.
Because of injuries and a lack of quality depth, senior Zach Boren was switched from his starting fullback position to middle linebacker before the Indiana game Oct. 13.
Boren had not played linebacker since his prep days at Pickerington Central, but OSU head coach Urban Meyer was so desperate for help at the position that he asked Boren to make the move.

ZAMBOANGA - The vice president of the Philippines arrived in the southern city of Zamboanga Saturday to discuss a truce with Muslim rebels holding scores of civilian hostages, as the death toll from the standoff soared above 50.
The country's number-two, Jejomar Binay, put the truce plan to rebel leader Nur Misuari and Defence Secretary Voltaire Gazmin late Friday as the gunmen torched homes and tens of thousands in the city of nearly one million fled the fighting.
Presidential spokeswoman Abigail Valte said that until the ceasefire was implemented, military operations would continue "as necessary", in a statement read on government radio.
The rebels, from the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), began the standoff on Monday, when around 180 of them entered the port city and took hostages in a bid to scupper peace talks between another militant group and the government.
A spokesman for Binay said the vice president had talked to MNLF leader Misuari on Friday night to propose a ceasefire that would come into effect at midnight on Saturday.
"He talked to Misuari and he talked to Gazmin, and they agreed to discuss a ceasefire," spokesman Joey Salgado told AFP early Saturday.
During an interview with ABS-CBN television on Saturday, Gazmin insisted that any truce was dependent on the rebels, who "are firing as we speak".
Binay tweeted in the afternoon that he had arrived in Zamboanga, where he was to join President Benigno Aquino to discuss the details of his plan with the defence secretary and MNLF representatives.
Aquino arrived in the southern city on Friday.
As the fighting raged, a marine and four rebels were killed and five other soldiers were wounded in a fierce skirmish in the Kasanyangan district before dawn, military spokesman Major Angelo de Guzman said.
The deaths brought the toll from six days of fighting to 53 dead and 70 wounded, more than double the previously announced total as of Friday, he said.
The toll included 43 dead guerrillas and nine of their wounded comrades.
Nineteen gunmen have surrendered or been captured, while the local civil defence office said 69,000 people fled coastal districts that were infiltrated by the heavily armed MNLF members early Monday.
Nearly 500 houses had been torched by the rebels as of Friday, with the buildings burning to the ground because snipers were preventing firemen from attending to the blazes, city fire marshal Dominador Zabala told reporters.
Military spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Ramon Zagala said just over 100 MNLF guerrillas were left hiding out in the six coastal neighbourhoods, holding between 50 and 100 civilian hostages.
About 3,000 elite troops were going after them, he said, describing the military gains as "substantial" while refusing to say which areas had been retaken by security forces.
In Santa Barbara district Saturday, rebels fired rocket-propelled grenades at about 50 soldiers, wounding several troops, an AFP photographer saw.
The soldiers were attacking a five-storey school building that contained rebel snipers, he added.
Valte, Aquino's spokeswoman, accused the guerrillas of "firing indiscriminately at civilians including Red Cross volunteers who were wounded by mortar fire", as well as attacking firemen who were responding to "the wanton burning of homes by the MNLF".
The military and police operations in the neighbourhoods aimed to "contain and constrict" the rebels, she added.
The MNLF waged a 25-year guerrilla war for independence before signing a peace treaty in 1996 that granted limited self-rule to the south's Muslim minority.
Misuari, who has accused the government of violating the terms of a 1996 treaty by negotiating a separate deal with a rival faction, had disappeared from public view shortly before the fighting began Monday.
The rival faction, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), is in the final stages of peace talks with Manila and is expected to take over an expanded autonomous Muslim region in the south by 2016.
President Aquino said the peace talks with the MILF aimed to end decades of rebellion that had claimed 150,000 lives in the country's Muslim southern regions.

In a pre-E3 pep talk, Microsoft highlighted the Xbox 360's ongoing success and teased some plans to keep its momentum rolling. The company has sold 67 million units since the console launched in 2005, generating over $56 billion at retail and earning Microsoft a 47% share of the current-generation console market. An increasing number of Xbox 360s are sold each year and that trend is expected to continue in 2012.
I don't want them to be my entertainment hub.
This will be marked as trolling.
Where is this 47% coming from, especially considering that there are more Wiis out there. Nevermind that the PS3, despite being in 3rd, still has a chunk of the market as well. And that's just consoles.
Also: hasn't *everyone* been selling less numbers? Again that's just consoles.
It's a GAMES console Microsoft...A GAMES CONSOLE
If you aren't interested in the games industry anymore and you want out why don't you admit it.
The only reason they havent left yet and are turning the Xbox into a media hub is because they don't want to leave the audience they've built up over the years behind, not knowing (or ignoring) that most of their audience are gamers and don't care about this sort of stuff.
I mean trying to change the games industry into something which goes against "gaming" for their own greedy needs is disrespectful to gamers who have followed them since the Xbox.
Least when Sony marketed the PS3 as a media hub with it's main blu ray feature back in 2006 it was presented as that. Now they don't need to worry about it anymore since they had a plan from the beginging and are focusing on the games...you know what make a console.
Honestly I don't understand MS sometimes.

WORCESTER — Frustrated by tractor-trailer trucks repeatedly hitting and getting stuck under the Providence & Worcester Railroad bridge on Cambridge Street, two businesses in that area have appealed to the city to take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.
Rich Kazarian, branch manager of NorthEast Electrical Distributors, 632 Cambridge St., and John C. Stowe, president of Lutco Inc., 677 Cambridge St., are seeking to have additional signs put up warning truck drivers of the low bridge on Cambridge Street.
They said something needs to be done to better warn truck drivers of the situation because once the trucks get under the bridge it's often too late.
Ideally, they said, they would like to see the bridge raised or the roadway lowered.
But realizing that neither option is likely to happen, they said the city could take "low money" preventive actions, such as putting up mechanical signs or electronic sensors that could warn drivers that their truck�is too high to make it under the bridge.
Mr. Kazarian said the repeated instances of tractor-trailers getting stuck under the bridge is wreaking havoc on every business on Cambridge Street, and even farther down the road to the College of the Holy Cross and the Worcester Airport Industrial Park.
He said whenever trucks get stuck under the bridge, police are forced to close down that part of Cambridge Street from anywhere from a half-day to as much as a full business day. The problem was underscored Thursday when two tractor-trailers hit the Cambridge Street railroad bridge within 15 minutes.
That came less than two days after Mr. Kazarian and Mr. Stowe appealed to the City Council Tuesday night for some help from the city. Before Thursday's accidents, Mr. Kazarian said four trucks had hit the bridge in the last three weeks alone.
"I've been on Cambridge Street for eight years and this has been an ongoing problem," Mr. Kazarian said. "I don't know how many times the bridge has been hit, but I wonder when it becomes a point of safety concern."
Route 146 serves as a major truck artery into Worcester. Cambridge Street, which is at the end of Route 146, has long been a major route for tractor-trailers going to the southwest and west part of the city.
Mr. Kazarian said tractor-trailer drivers take a left from Route 146 on to Cambridge Street and before they can realize it they are stuck under the bridge.
"What happens is once the police show up, it shuts down Cambridge Street for a number of hours," he said. "Consequently, that shuts down my business and a number of other businesses on the road."
Mr. Stowe, meanwhile, said his business has felt the impact in more ways than one.
He said there have been times when drivers, realizing that their truck will not fit under the bridge, try to back up on Cambridge Street toward the Route 146 interchange, only to back their trucks right into his building. There have even been instances when trucks have backed up into some of his building's air-conditioning units, he said.
While the bridge is posted to have a clearance of 12-feet, 9-inches, Mr. Kazarian said that is deceptive because the road has inclines on both sides of the bridge. As a result, he said, the clearance is probably more actually like 12-feet, 3-inches high when a 53-foot-long trailer is going under it.
"If you could eliminate the incline on one side of it, that would be perfect," Mr. Kazarian said. "But an inexpensive way to solve this problem would be to have mechanical signs put up before the bridge so if the top of the truck hit the sign, the driver would know that it wouldn't make it under the bridge.
"That's a 20th century fix; a 21st century fix would be to put in electronic sensors that would trigger flashing lights on a sign on the bridge warning the driver that the truck was too high," he added.
Mayor Joseph M. Petty and District 4 Councilor Sarai Rivera filed a petition on behalf of the Cambridge Street businesses, requesting additional signs notifying truck drivers of the low bridge be placed on the "Flood Warning" pole in front of Sacred Heart Church and on the other side of the bridge near Lutco's building at 677 Cambridge St.
The petition will be taken up by the City Council Traffic and Parking Committee.

The length to which the federal government can go to make itself look heartless and foolish is, at times, breathtaking. This is one of those times.
The latest case study came last week when the Washington Post revealed that the government has been confiscating taxpayers' refunds to pay decades-old debts that may have been incurred by their parents. Often those debts are not nefarious, but instead were overpayments made by the government itself.
No, really.
We aren't kidding.
For the past three years the Social Security Administration has been intercepting federal and state income tax refund checks from about 400,000 families to pay debts that the agency acknowledges are usually more than 10 years old and likely incurred by the parents of the current taxpayers.
This unpleasant circumstance was apparently made possible by a single sentence buried deep in, of all places, the 2008 farm bill.
For example, consider the case of J. Marc Dion, a former police officer who is now a lawyer in Westlake Village. He had his $2,000 tax refund intercepted this year because Social Security says he received too much in disability benefits while he was in law school more than a decade ago.
Dion won a judgment against Social Security in 2010, but the debt collection continues.
The two senators fired off a joint letter to the head of the Social Security Administration asking that the agency halt the practice.
The senators pointed out that families "are unfairly being held responsible for decades-old errors at the Social Security Administration — even though many of these taxpayers were children at the time the error was made."
"Garnishing taxpayers' refunds to pay for debts that are more than a decade old — and incurred through no fault of their own — is a policy that cannot be continued in good conscience."
The Social Security Administration responded to the news story and letter by stopping the policy.
But that isn't enough. The two outraged senators should introduce legislation that would make sure this process can't be resurrected somewhere down the road.

Ericsson has announced an extension to its 3E Gold Design Kit with the launch of two new development board kits. Launched in June 2011, the 3E Gold Edition Design Kit has been widely used by board and system architects and enables the easy implementation of Ericsson's Advanced Bus Converters – the BMR453 and BMR454 – and the company's 3E PMBus-compliant Point-of-Load DC-DC regulators – the BMR462, BMR463 and BMR464.
Developed for system-level power design, the new ROA1285068 and ROA1285077 3E design kits enable systems architects to develop not only the exact power architecture required for their final application, but also to configure and monitor every single component to optimize performance and reduce energy consumption. The two new board kits can also be interconnected with other 3E kits such as the ROA1283835 and the ROA1283836 and can be used as stand-alone kits for smaller systems or educational purposes.
"The availability of these new design and development boards further extend the capabilities of Ericsson's leading-edge 3E Gold Edition Design Kit," said Patrick Le Fèvre, Marketing and Communication Director, Ericsson Power Modules. "In conjunction with the recent launch of the Ericsson Digital Power Compendium, they further demonstrate the company's strong commitment to help engineers in developing advanced power solutions for world-class energy efficiency."

Derry's Pinkerton Academy looks at narrowing dress codeBy HUNTER McGEE
Union Leader Correspondent
September 22. 2013 9:58PM
DERRY — A proposed dress code policy for Pinkerton Academy calls for changing to "business casual" and eliminating jeans from day-to-day wear.
"The kids are all abuzz about this," Dean of Students Glenn Ahrens said, adding, "There are a lot of options within those parameters."
If the dress code is approved, the changes wouldn't occur until the 2014-15 school year.
Ahrens said during an on-campus fashion show earlier this year, Student Council members modeled clothing that would be allowed under the proposed dress code, including polo shirts and even a sweater vest.
Some students said they liked the proposed options, Ahrens said. Others said, "I wouldn't wear that in a million years," he said.
A parents' meeting to discuss the dress code is set for Thursday at the school.
The clothing options include khaki pants, polo shirts or button-down shirts, along with skirts, "skorts " and shorts of appropriate length, Headmaster Mary Anderson said.
Despite having the word "Unified" in the name, the dress code is not a uniform, administrators said.
Pinkerton currently has a dress code, but it's somewhat broader in its selections. The Unified Dress Code would narrow the choices and eliminate denim for day-to-day wear, Anderson said. Students might still be able to wear jeans occasionally as part of more casual or "dress down" days, she said.
The change wouldn't include faculty members, as they already have their own dress code, she said.
Pinkerton Academy students Joe Ronca and his sister, Alyssa Ronca, said they have mixed emotions about the proposed changes. "I would rather wear my own clothes to be honest, and some of the stuff they've given us to choose from is not the most attractive and appealing," Alyssa Ronca, a freshman, said. "But it's not that big of a deal. It will make getting ready easier."Her brother is a junior.
"I just think it kind of restricts my freedom," Joe Ronca said. "I would rather wear my own clothes to school. It's not like I'm going to protest; I'm going to go along with it if they do it, but I would rather not."
Their father, Joe Ronca Sr., said the dress code change would allow him not to worry about his children's clothing selections.
"A lot of it is left to interpretation," the elder Ronca said. "So I'd rather have a dress code; that way it's cut and dried."
Administrators have been considering a change in the dress code for about the past 18 months. A survey administered to parents last year indicated that a majority would favor such a plan, Anderson said.
In some instances, a few students have shown up at school dressed like they were prepared to go to the beach, she said.
"They aren't going to the beach; they are coming to school, and they have to be dressed appropriately," Anderson said.
In a small percentage of cases, the school has sent home students wearing inappropriate clothing.
"We have a dress code now, but the kids push the limits," Anderson said.

There's no consensus on the best player -- much less who will be taken No. 1 overall.
Case in point is Patrick Peterson. The LSU cornerback has been called the draft's "safest pick" and its "best athlete." Yet, nobody can pinpoint exactly where Peterson will be taken on April 28.
In our mock drafts, Peterson has been as high as No. 2 to Denver and as low as No. 7 to San Francisco. In this week's shakeup, Peterson landed at No. 5 to Arizona.
Our 7.0 mock draft features the return of Cam Newton to the top spot, a second consecutive stint at the Browns' No. 6 position for A.J. Green, and the emergence of Robert Quinn and Tyron Smith into the top 10. Falling out are Da'Quan Bowers and Prince Amukamara.
1. Carolina, Cam Newton, quarterback, Auburn, 4 last week.
Comment: Big question is whether owner Jerry Richardson signs off on him.
2. Denver, Marcell Dareus, defensive tackle, Alabama, 1.
Comment: NFL Network's Mike Mayock labels him draft's best player.
3. Buffalo, Von Miller, linebacker, Texas A&M, 5.
Comment: Will the ghost of Aaron Maybin scare them off?
4. Cincinnati, Blaine Gabbert, quarterback, Missouri, 3.
Comment: I just don't see them passing on a QB.
5. Arizona, Patrick Peterson, cornerback, LSU, 2.
Comment: Good thing for Browns the Cards are stocked at receiver.
6. Browns, A.J. Green, receiver, Georgia, 6.
Comment: There are not a lot of good reasons to pass on him.
7. San Francisco, Robert Quinn, defensive end, North Carolina, N/A
Comment: Fills dire need of pass rush off the edge.
8. Tennessee, Nick Fairley, defensive tackle, Auburn, 8.
Comment: Starting to look like a natural landing spot for him.
9. Dallas, Tyron Smith, offensive tackle, USC, N/A
Comment: New entry into the top 10.
10. Washington, Julio Jones, receiver, Alabama, 10.
Comment: Most likely team to trade up for a QB.
Dropped out: Da'Quan Bowers, defensive end, Clemson; Prince Amukamara, cornerback, Nebraska.

Federal Reserve policy makers said they will probably end their $85 billion monthly bond purchases sometime in 2013 with members divided between a mid- or end-of-year finish.
"A few members expressed the view that ongoing asset purchases would likely be warranted until about the end of 2013" while a few others specified no time frame, according to the record of the Federal Open Market Committee's Dec. 11-12 gathering released today in Washington. "Several others thought that it would probably be appropriate to slow or stop purchases well before the end of 2013, citing concerns about financial stability or the size of the balance sheet."
Four years after cutting the main interest rate to near zero, policy makers are expanding their third round of so-called quantitative easing to boost economic growth and cut the jobless rate, now at 7.7 percent. In prior rounds of bond purchases, the central bank bought $2.3 trillion in securities.
The minutes show a divide among FOMC participants on how long the purchases should last. Participants who provided estimates were "approximately evenly divided" between those who said it would be appropriate to end the purchases around mid-2013 and those who said they should continue beyond that date.
Treasury Purchases
At its December meeting, the FOMC announced Treasury purchases of $45 billion a month in addition to $40 billion a month of mortgage-debt purchases begun in September, bringing the total pace of bond buying to $85 billion a month. The FOMC hadn't set a limit on the program's size or duration and said last month the purchases will continue "if the outlook for the labor market does not improve substantially."
The new bond buying follows the expiration at the end of last year of Operation Twist, in which the Fed swapped about $45 billion in short-term Treasuries each month for an equal amount of long-term debt. That kept the total size of the balance sheet unchanged. The new buying will expand the Fed's total holdings, currently at $2.91 trillion.
Officials discussed the possible risks of new bond buying, with "a number" saying that they are concerned that the purchases "could complicate the Committee's efforts to eventually withdraw monetary policy accommodation" by causing inflation expectations to rise, according to the minutes.
