Interface for plugins.
A plugin is a Haskell module that is dynamically loaded by gitit.
There are three kinds of plugins: PageTransforms, PreParseTransforms, and PreCommitTransforms. These plugins differ chiefly in where they are applied. PreCommitTransform plugins are applied just before changes to a page are saved and may transform the raw source that is saved. PreParseTransform plugins are applied when a page is viewed and may alter the raw page source before it is parsed as a Pandoc document. Finally, PageTransform plugins modify the Pandoc document that results after a page's source is parsed, but before it is converted to HTML:
+--------------------------+ | edited text from browser | +--------------------------+ || <---- PreCommitTransform plugins \/ || <---- saved to repository \/ +---------------------------------+ | raw page source from repository | +---------------------------------+ || <---- PreParseTransform plugins \/ || <---- markdown or RST reader \/ +-----------------+ | Pandoc document | +-----------------+ || <---- PageTransform plugins \/ +---------------------+ | new Pandoc document | +---------------------+ || <---- HTML writer \/ +----------------------+ | HTML version of page | +----------------------+
Note that PreParseTransform and PageTransform plugins do not alter the page source stored in the repository. They only affect what is visible on the website. Only PreCommitTransform plugins can alter what is stored in the repository.
Note also that PreParseTransform and PageTransform plugins will not be run when the cached version of a page is used. Plugins can use the doNotCache command to prevent a page from being cached, if their behavior is sensitive to things that might change from one time to another (such as the time or currently logged-in user).
You can use the helper functions mkPageTransform and mkPageTransformM to create PageTransform plugins from a transformation of any of the basic types used by Pandoc (for example, Inline, Block, [Inline], even String). Here is a simple (if silly) example:
-- Deprofanizer.hs module Deprofanizer (plugin) where -- This plugin replaces profane words with "XXXXX". import Network.Gitit.Interface import Data.Char (toLower) plugin :: Plugin plugin = mkPageTransform deprofanize deprofanize :: Inline -> Inline deprofanize (Str x) | isBadWord x = Str "XXXXX" deprofanize x = x isBadWord :: String -> Bool isBadWord x = (map toLower x) `elem` ["darn", "blasted", "stinker"] -- there are more, but this is a family program
Further examples can be found in the plugins directory in the source distribution. If you have installed gitit using Cabal, you can also find them in the directory CABALDIR/share/gitit-X.Y.Z/plugins, where CABALDIR is the cabal install directory and X.Y.Z is the version number of gitit.
|Lifts a function from a -> a (for example, Inline -> Inline, Block -> Block, [Inline] -> [Inline], or String -> String) to a PageTransform plugin.
|Monadic version of mkPageTransform. Lifts a function from a -> m a to a PageTransform plugin.
|Returns the current wiki configuration.
|Returns Just the logged in user, or Nothing if nobody is logged in.
|Returns the complete HTTP request.
|Returns the wiki filestore.
|Returns the page meta data
|Indicates that the current page or file is not to be cached.
|Derives a URL from a list of Pandoc Inline elements.
|Convert a list of inlines into a string.
|Perform a function in a temporary directory and clean up.

Full coverage of the Jodi Arias death penalty re-trial on HLN.
When jurors deliberated whether Jodi Arias murdered her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander, one of the toughest issues they had to decide was whether his death was premeditated.
Prosecutor Juan Martinez said that on June 2, 2008, Arias set out on road trip that would help prove she intended to kill in premeditation.
Read more: Will Martinez play hardball with Arias?
In Session's legal experts put together information from testimony, phone records and court documents to create a picture of Arias' actions in the days before and after Alexander's death.
June 2, 2008:
Yreka, California
Phone records show several calls between Arias and Alexander in the early morning hours:
Arias called Alexander four times between 1 a.m. and 3 a.m.
These calls were all very short, the longest 17 seconds.
Alexander called Arias twice during the 3 a.m. hour:
The first call was just under 18 minutes, the second about 41 minutes.
Arias called Travis at 4:03 a.m. The call lasted 2 minutes, 48 seconds.
At 5:39 a.m. Arias bought $15 worth of gas at Shell Food Mart in Siskiyou, California.
Redding, California
At 8:04 a.m., Arias rented a car at Budget Rent A Car. The rental agent testified Arias had blonde hair at the time. She refused the first car he offered her because it was red. Instead, she rented a white Ford Focus. She allegedly wanted a car that wouldn't stand out. She also told the rental agent she would be using the car locally. According to the rental agreement, the car was supposed to be returned on Friday, June 6, around 8 a.m.
June 3, 2008:
Monterey, California
Arias made three deposits to different accounts at a Washington Mutual branch:
10:10 a.m. $400 to account # ending 8006
10:11 a.m. $300 to account # ending 7148
10:15 a.m. $100 to account # ending 7148
Arias called Alexander twice:
A 17-second call at 12:57 p.m.
A 2-minute, 50-second call at 1:51 p.m.
Arias' ex-boyfriend, Darryl Brewer, testified Arias stopped by his house in Monterey, California, on June 3, 2008. Brewer said he gave Arias two gas cans, because she needed them for a long road trip. In Session's legal experts say this could be evidence of premeditation, because Arias may have been trying to cover her tracks, using the gas cans so she would not have to buy gas in Mesa, where Alexander lived.
Salinas, California
At 3:22 p.m., Arias goes shopping at a Wal-Mart and buys two facial cleansers and three unidentified items. The sale total was $43.90 and she paid cash.
Pasadena, California
At 8:16 p.m., Arias calls Alexander. The call lasted 2 minutes, 9 seconds.
At 8:31 p.m., Arias goes to a CVS pharmacy. It is not clear what she bought.
At 8:34 p.m., Arias calls Alexander again and the call lasts 49 seconds
Between 8:42 and 8:46 p.m., Arias makes two gas purchases at Arco. The first is for $34.61, and the second is a pre-paid purchase for $40.
She may have filed up her rental car and the gas tanks with fuel.
Ryan Burns testified Arias called him around 9 or 10 p.m. on June 3, 2008. She told him she was on her way to Utah. Burns expected her to arrive around 9 a.m. the next morning, Wednesday, June 4.
June 4, 2008, the day Alexander died:
Mesa, Arizona
Arias told police she arrived at Alexander's house at 4 a.m. She says Alexander was still up waiting for her and watching YouTube videos. The police search of Alexander's computer confirms it was in use at that time. Arias says Alexander wanted to have sex, but she was tired, so they went to bed.
At 1 p.m., Arias says she and Alexander woke up and had sex. They also took nude photos of each other in his bedroom. Later, she says, they had rough sex in his home office.
At 5:22 p.m., Arias began taking pictures of Alexander in the shower.
Investigators retrieved a total of 19 images from the camera.
Four of those photos tell the story of the last minutes of his life:
5:29 p.m. Arias snapped a photo of Alexander in his shower just minutes before he died.
At 5:31 p.m. Arias defense attorney Jennifer Willmott says there was a photo taken accidently when Arias dropped the camera. This photo shows the ceiling of Alexander's bathroom.
At 5:32 p.m. There is a picture of Alexander bleeding and on the ground, it's also possible to see what looks like Arias' leg and foot.
At 5:33 p.m. There is a picture of blood on the baseboard.
SEE THE PHOTOS FOR YOURSELF: Travis Alexander's last moments alive
At 10:30 p.m., Arias calls Burns to tell him she got lost but she's on her way and will be in Utah by the morning.
In the 11 p.m. hour, Arias calls Alexander's phone three times:
The first call is at 11:37 p.m. and is 31 seconds long.
The second call is at 11:48 p.m. and she leaves a voicemail.
The third call was at 11:53 p.m. It was 16 minutes long.
Investigators say Arias may have accessed Alexander's voicemail account on June 4. Phone records show Arias was between Kingman, Arizona, and the Nevada border when she made the calls.
West Jordan, Utah
Between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m, Burns says Arias arrived in West Jordan, about 700 miles from her starting point.
Ryan testified he noticed her hair was dark brown; her hair had been blonde when they met. He also notices cuts and bandages on her fingers. She tells him she cut her fingers at the Margaritaville restaurant where she worked. However, there is no Margaritaville in or near Yreka.
At noon, Burns and Arias go to a business meeting. She follows him there in her rental car. On the way, she's pulled over because her license plate is upside down, and the patrol officer gives her a warning. After the meeting, they go back to Burns' house, where they watch a movie and "make out."
At 7 p.m., Burns and Arias go to another business meeting. Again, they go in separate cars. After the meeting, Arias gives a friend, Leslie Udy, a ride to dinner. Udy says Arias seemed fine and that they talked about Arias' breakup with Alexander before joining Burns and his friends for dinner.
Around 11 p.m., Arias and Burns go back to his house. They take a nap and when they wake up, they begin making out again. Burns says their contact stopped short of all-out sexual activity. He also says she was much stronger than she looked. Arias left Burns' house sometime after midnight.
June 6, 2008:
Salt Lake City, Utah
Arias makes two gas purchases at Tesoro between 3:57 a.m. and 4:05 a.m. The first one was for $41.18 . The second one was 8 minutes later for an additional $36.98.
Winnemucca, Nevada
Arias spends $49.91 on gas at a Flying J Travel Plaza. She also spends $4.90 on other items. There is no time stamp on the receipts for these purchases.
Sparks, Nevada
At 10:34 a.m., Arias buys gas at a 7-Eleven. It is not clear how much gas she bought. She also makes two purchases at an In-N-Out Burger at 10:38 and 10:43 a.m.
June 7, 2008:
Redding, California
At 12:20 p.m., Arias buys gas at a Valero.
At 1:08 p.m., Arias returns her rental car. She originally planned to return the car on Friday, June 6 at 8 a.m. Some time during the week, she apparently extended her rental until 9:30 a.m. Saturday, June 7. The rental agent testified that the car appeared to have "Kool-Aid" stains on the passenger seat and back seat and all the floor mats were gone.
In all, Arias traveled 2,834 miles.
She was arrested a little more than a month later, on July 15, 2008.

Add a Little Color: A Single Stripe
We're big fans of stripes — colorful ones, black and white ones, big fat wide ones. We love the color and boldness they add to a room. But what if you're shy about pattern, or only want to add just a little bit of color? For a simple, quirky accent, try adding just one stripe.
1. Striped bed by Knack Studios.
2. Try it on an exterior! Striped cottage by Hatchworks Austin, via Studio G.
3. Continue a stripe onto the windows for extra impact. From Marie Claire Maison.
4. Parting Seas Serving Platter, $29.95 from Anthropologie
5. Thinking about painting your stairs? Try adding a single block of color. Image by photographer Winny Pepping (used with permission).
6. A little stripe livens up tableware. Pepper shaker, $259, and salt shaker, $298, both from Kneen and Co.
7. Two stripes add modern punch to the hallway of a lovely old building. 'Stripes' carpet system by DUM, via Daily Tonic.
8. Another use for the ubiquitous Washi tape — create a faux chair rail effect. From Yellow Brick Home.
9. A single stripe slips over the curves and corners of intricate molding. Magnus Anesund for Elle Interior. (P.S. Are you as in love with that table as I am? It's the Shuffle Table by Mia Hamborg. Available here.)
10. Change it up a bit: try a crazy angular stripe. Don't forget to keep everything else (sort of) simple. Skona Hem via Sf Girl by Bay.

Sinful Dwarf, The (US - DVD)
Gabe's nightmares now have a name and a face. Can you resist clicking here?
Do you remember your worst nightmare? Do you remember what it looked like, what it smelled like, what it sounded like? Do you remember waking up in a pool of sweat? Well I don't have to remember, because now I own a copy of The Sinful Dwarf, and I can relive the horror anytime I want. All the grinning dwarfs, all the laughing elderly lushes, all the writhing hairy male ass, all the deceivingly naked women.
Everything about this movie is urinal-cake-in-the-gutter dirty. Things open with the dwarf coaxing a pigtailed twenty-something dressed as a child into his web with a barking flipping dog toy. The early sex scene between an apparently in-love couple of terrible actors is so terribly lit and framed, and the actual sex so awkward, that it skirts dangerously close to actual peeping-tomery. The prosthetic effects are mostly terrible, but for some reason the writhing attic whore's track lines are at least 90% believable. Olaf makes his windup toys hump each other, before taking the piano so his elderly mother (who looks like the villainess from The Rescuers) can do a Carmen Miranda impression, which is then intercut with a John's naked ass thrusting into one of the heroin junky girls.
The acting is subpar, to say the least, and the dialogue is disturbingly realistic considering how fucking boring it is. I'm almost positive that this is exactly how the boringest couple in all of England, and a crazy lady and her sinful dwarf son would converse. My personal favourite among the cast is Anne Sparrow, the wife, who appears to be stoned out of her gourd, and abnormally full of snot the whole time. Though Tony Eades, the husband, manages to impress with his constipation pushing Englishman voice. Factually, and somewhat disappointingly the title little person doesn't do too much sinning, but Torbin Bille doesn't disappoint with his eyebrows, odd pauses and screeching voice.
But the best part of the whole thing is the entirely too common domestic drama that sits in the centre of the nightmare. Bereft of all the creepy heroine junky prostitution, this is just another boringest couple in the world fights off some hard times. Think Revolutionary Road in 1973 England with about one hundred percent more sinful dwarfness.
The back of the box states that The Sinful Dwarf was found in a janitor's closet, and given the state of this disc, I believe them. Not that I expected or wanted anything more from something call The Sinful Dwarf. The print damage runs the gambit from grain, colour bleeding, discolouration, tracking lines, dirt, hair, and what appears to be good, old fashioned goo. Things are clean and clear enough for us to appreciate the blood curdling colour schemes, unkempt sets, and even the hairy man butts to their fullest extent. Things are presented in the original aspect ratio of 1.33:1, and if you're lucky, your copy with come with a brain erasing kit.
If images of grinning little people dressed like lumber jacks don't fill your very soul with terror, perhaps Ole Ørsted's manic score will. Score is a little bit of a misnomer, I suppose. Maybe Hell's breath is a better description. The track trembles with echoing keyboard strokes, atonal moaning voices, and feedback. When hanging out with the exceedingly boring protagonist couple a depressing guitar and cello piece. The volume levels fluctuate wildly throughout the film, but it is disturbingly clear for the majority of the runtime.
Extras start with 'The Severin Controversy', a positively silly ten minute featurette exploring a particular Severin fan's protest of the company's release of The Sinful Dwarf. It's all very tongue in cheek, and very funny, including a 're-enactment' of the first time this particular fan rented the film. The other extras are a theatrical trailer and two radio spots.
I've seen it, and now I can't un-see it, and I want you to go through the same world altering terror I did, so please, please go out and buy The Sinful Dwarf. Buy seven copies and send them to your relatives. Misery doesn't just love company, it craves it, and I am miserable now. Seriously, though, don't see this movie. Stay away. Unless you aren't a total baby, then see it. I dare you. Come on.

I have completed 5 generations of my family tree! Lately I have made several big discoveries that filled in gaps in the generation of my great great grandparents (which I plan to write about soon), and today, I found the very last one. In the responses to a message I posted on GenForum, I have found the name of my maternal grandfather's paternal grandmother (try saying that 5 times fast). It is... *drum roll* ... Annie Broughton! Annie was born around 1862, almost certainly in England.
I also learned that Beaumont Jackson (Annie's husband) was the son of John Jackson and Ann Beaumont. This is interesting, because that means Beaumont got his name from his mom's maiden name, and then my grandpa got it as his middle name from his grandpa. So this is now my grandpa's (and uncle's) middle name, and it all started with his great grandmother's maiden name.
I am so excited about this.
Now, it's time to focus on the great great great grandparents. So far, I have 14 out of the 32 (though I think I have a couple more kicking around that I just haven't put on the computer yet).

Making Michigan Right-to-Work: Implementation Problems in Public Schools
Approximately 75 percent of districts with contracts subject to the right-to-work law removed language that would require employees to financially support a union as a condition of employment. Both legal and policy questions are raised by the remaining 25 percent of districts, which kept mandatory dues language in one way or another, despite having a contract that took effect or was modified after the law's effective date.
The study describes five issues with these contracts. Twenty-three contracts made no apparent changes and kept mandatory dues language. Eight districts created a separate agreement to require mandatory dues payment. Fifteen contracts were ratified before they would be subject to the right-to-work law, but then didn't take effect until much later. Five contracts made only the mandatory dues language immediately effective, while delaying the rest of the contract. Finally, at least six districts have modified parts of their contract without making the rest of it compliant with the right-to-work law. … more
Roadblocks to Reform?: A Review of Union Contracts in Michigan Schools
Some districts negotiated with their unions to add language stating that if circumstances changed, pages of prohibited language would take immediate effect. Others simply changed the word "teacher" in order to keep the prohibited language but have it apply to other staff members. Finally, some districts appear to have kept prohibited language without explanation.
This study includes further examples and lists of districts that kept the prohibited language in their contracts. As a solution, penalties could be added to the collective bargaining reform laws in order to encourage district compliance. … more

Michigan's Top-to-Bottom Ranking: A Measure of School Quality or Student Poverty?
These results matters because TTB rankings are used to impose consequences on low-ranking schools. This study suggests that Michigan should look at how other states rank schools in an attempt to reduce the likelihood of penalizing schools that serve lower-income students. It also makes the case that a choice-based accountability system is preferred, as it would allow students to escape schools that are not serving their needs and reduce the risk of penalizing undeservedly low-ranked schools. … more

Ben Affleck learned the hard way that it's never a good idea to read Internet comments.
The actor, who set off a furious fanboy backlash when he was cast as Batman in the upcoming "Man of Steel" sequel last month, responded to his haters during a visit Monday to "Late Night."
Affleck told host Jimmy Fallon that even he was skeptical when he was first approached about the role. "They called me up and said, 'Do you want to do this?' And I thought, 'Well, I'm not 25, man. Are you sure about this?' "
But the actor and filmmaker said he was won over by the "brilliant" vision of director Zack Snyder.
PHOTOS: Hollywood Backlot moments
Once Affleck, 41, accepted the role, executives at Warner Bros. shared with him the negative reactions that met other actors cast in high-profile roles as a way to warn him of the potentially "trying" times ahead.
Affleck, who's certainly weathered his share of public criticism ("Gigli," anyone?) was sure he could handle whatever came next. "I'm a big boy," he said. "I'm very tough."
His bravado soon faded, however. Despite an admonition from the suits at Warner Bros. to stay away from the Internet in the days following the casting announcement, Affleck couldn't resist a peek. "I saw the announcement, I look down on the first comment. The first one just goes, 'Nooooooooo!' " he recalled.
That's when he decided, perhaps wisely, to heed the studio's advice. "We're going to be Luddites for a while, kids," he joked.

Welcome tennis lovers, in recent product videos I took a quick look at the Yonex Tournament Basic Series Bags. The thing I really like about these bags is the clean design, because they aren't too too flashy, but completely functional and spacious. (Make sure to click on the pictures for links to the videos.)
The Tour Basic 6 Pack bag has two main compartments, an accessories pocket, shoe bag.. Everything you need in one simple design.
The Tour Basic Back Pack bag holds up to two racquets and has a really clean style. It's quite spacious for a compact back pack.
A lot of bag lines don't include a travel bag, and I really liked how simple and spacious this Tour Basic Tour Bag was. Easy to carry too, with big middle grab handles and a shoulder strap.
If you ever have any questions about bags or string, please contact us on Facebook, Talk Tennis, YouTube, Twitter.. We're here to help! Keep an eye out for more videos coming out in the next couple weeks, and if there is a bag you want featured, don't hesitate to ask.
Until next time!

America and Afghanistan have reached a "bilateral security agreement" to keep troops in Afghanistan until 2024.
Discussions leading up to the agreement were marked by what at least one article terms "brinksmanship" over whether or not the United States would apologize for actions in the recent Afghan war. We stood tough on that. No apology.
However, our government has committed us — meaning you and me — to continue spending billions of dollars in Afghanistan for at least the next 10 years. If past is prelude, this agreement is actually an agreement in perpetuity. World War II was over in 1945, and the Cold War ended in 1989, but we still have troops in Europe. And Japan. And the Philippines. And … well … everywhere we can have them.
I realize that Afghanistan may be a special case. I do not want it used again as a staging base for further attacks on America. For that reason, it may actually be in the interests of the American people, and in the interests of "keeping us safe," to extend the time we have a military presence there.
However, the budget deficit is a serious threat to our national security, as well.
If we keep troops in Afghanistan, what are we going to cut elsewhere?
The talk in certain political circles is all about raiding social security and closing down medicare to "balance" the budget. The people are who are doing this are actually engaging in a ruse. The reason for raiding social security (and other retirement plans) is not to balance the budget. It is to drain the last big pool of available money into the coffers of special interests.
There is no way we can even begin to balance our national budget without bringing an end to the real "entitlement" that is draining our public coffers, and that is corporate welfare. The biggest pork barrel out there is military spending. Military spending has gone far beyond what is needed to keep this country safe and has become an economic anvil around our necks that is going to sink us.
It is an endless trough where the corporate hogs feed. Instead of building the roads, public transportation and goods that this country needs to stay strong, our major industry has become endless war.
No one seems to ask the question: If generations of people living off welfare become habituated to the dole and lose ambition and incentive and settle into non-productive mire, what happens to corporations that do the same thing?
From the New York Times:
WASHINGTON — Secretary of State John Kerry announced on Wednesday that the United States and Afghanistan had finalized the wording of a bilateral security agreement that would allow for a lasting American troop presence through 2024 and set the stage for billions of dollars of international assistance to keep flowing to the government in Kabul.
The deal, which will now be presented for approval by an Afghan grand council of elders starting on Thursday, came after days of brinkmanship by Afghan officials and two direct calls from Mr. Kerry to President Hamid Karzai, including one on Wednesday before the announcement.
Just the day before, a senior aide to Mr. Karzai had said the Afghan leader would not approve an agreement unless President Obama sent a letter acknowledging American military mistakes during the 12-year war. But on Wednesday, Mr. Kerry emphatically insisted that a deal was reached with no American apology forthcoming.
"President Karzai didn't ask for an apology. There was no discussion of an apology," Mr. Kerry said. "I mean, it's just not even on the table."
After a war that stands as the longest in American history, the security agreement defines a training and counterterrorism mission in Afghanistan lasting at least 10 more years and involving 8,000 to 12,000 troops, mostly American.
Despite the sometimes harsh criticism from Afghan officials during the negotiations, the agreement includes concessions that the Obama administration could not win from Iraq during a similar process in 2011, leading to the final withdrawal of American troops there.
Now, the United States has at least an initial agreement from Afghan officials that American soldiers will not face Afghan prosecution in the course of their duties. And United States Special Operations forces will retain leeway to conduct antiterrorism raids on private Afghan homes — a central American demand that Afghan officials had resisted and described as the last sticking point in negotiations.

I'm quite surprised by the number of comments who think that JavaScript execution is delayed until the page is fully loaded. JavaScript is downloaded, parsed, and executed at the very location it is referenced in the page. It is for this very reason that many performance-minded people tell you to place your scripts at the bottom of the page; because they BLOCK loading of the page while they are downloaded and executed. It is this very problem of waiting for the DOM to be ready in order to execute DOM-dependent code that so many JS frameworks solve with OnDomReady events and other onload hacks.
It is perfectly acceptable (from a performance standpoint) to use JS as your redirection method.

Can't Get Enough Of: Organized Closets
Before starting any organizing project, we like to look at inspiring images of similar spaces (so that we'll be extra motivated to get the task underway). Next to office nooks, we think pics of organized closets are the cat's meow.
We're ashamed to admit that since moving into our new pad, we just got around to color coordinating our closet. Mainly because it takes all of around 5 minutes to accomplish and saves tons of time when attempting to locate an article of clothing. It's also essential to keep everything looking streamlined and neat with a closet full of identical hangers. We really like the skinny, black velvet kind (found here) which maximizes every inch of space in a teeny closet. And don't let zero closet space deter you from having a proper place to hang your clothes. DIY a branch or incorporate a clothes rack into your homes decor.

Tallahassee, Florida- August 29, 2012
A former postal worker was sentenced today in federal court.
The 26-year veteran had been convicted of fraud after she was caught running marathons while receiving workers' compensation benefits.
Jacquelyn Myers' attorney said the postal service should've confronted Myers if they knew she was running marathons while on light duty at work. The judge said he understood that the government had to build its case but, agreed that probation was appropriate.
A federal judge says just because someone can do this, it doesn't mean they should do this. However, the judge says he had to base his sentencing on the jury's findings and in May, 2012 a jury found 55-year-old Jacquelyn Myers guilty of healthcare fraud and making false statements to get workers' compensation.
August 29th the judge sentenced her to three years probation.
Said Mike Teeto, a Tallahassee resident: "She definitely doesn't belong in prison or anything serious. I think America takes that a little too far. But, I think she needs probation for sure."
Prosecutors say Myers claimed she was physically unable to do her job as a mail carrier with the U.S. Postal Service because of a 2009 back injury yet, she competed in more than 80 athletic events even running the Boston Marathon and winning the title of top athlete in her age group in all of Georgia.
"Definitely not something that I would be happy about, thinking 'Oh she's getting away with that kind of thing'. I'm kind of glad she got sentenced because honestly, that's wrong," said Helen McCulloch, a Tallahassee resident.
"I think it's cheating America and people that need it more."
Myers' attorney denied prosecutors' claims that the marathon runner misled doctors and her employers just to be put on light duty and have Saturdays off.
Myers' attorney said Myers did tell her physical therapist that she was running races while on disability. The judge said that the postal service should've sat down with Myers and asked what her physical capabilities were.
The judge ordered Myers to pay restitution of $26,714 plus $400 special assessment.
Tallahassee, Florida- August 29, 2012- Noon
Myers has been sentenced to three years probation. She is also ordered to pay restitution of $26,714 plus $400 special assessment.
The judge says Myers must begin her payments within 60 days.
Myers has the right to appeal within 14 days.
Tallahassee, Florida- May 16, 2012
Former postal employee, Jacquelyn V. Myers, 55, of Tallahassee, Florida, was found guilty by a federal jury yesterday of healthcare fraud and making false statements to obtain workers' compensation benefits.
Evidence presented at the two-day jury trial established that, while claiming she was physically unable to fulfill her responsibilities as a rural letter carrier with the Postal Service, Myers competed in more than 80 athletic events in Florida and Georgia. Although she claimed that she could only handle "light duty" in her government job, Myers was competing in 5K races, 10K races, triathlons, and marathons, including the Boston Marathon, which she ran in April 2010.
In May 2009, Myers reported that she had suffered a lower back injury during the annual letter carriers' food drive. As a result, she was relieved of the letter carrying duties for which she had been hired, and placed on "light duty." Between June and December of 2009, Myers told her treating physicians and physical therapists that her back injury had not improved, and that she was unable to twist and bend at the waist – activities associated with the delivery of mail. Photographs and videotapes taken during the same period show Myers running barefoot on gravel in a cross-country event, and swimming, cycling, and running in a triathlon. Evidence at trial demonstrated that Myers' race times actually improved over those recorded prior to her reported date of injury.
The defendant faces maximum sentences of five years in prison for false statements and ten years in prison for healthcare fraud. Sentencing has been scheduled for July 25, 2012, at 11:00 a.m., before United States District Judge Robert L. Hinkle.
Pamela C. Marsh, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Florida, praised the work of the United States Postal Service, Office of Inspector General, whose investigation led to the convictions.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Coody.

Rated 3 out of 5 by SHEISABOSS from NOT THE FIT THAT I WAS LOOKING FOR The material of this legging is nice. However, the fit wasnt all that great on me. The medium was too big & the small made my rear end look like it was smashed in. Im 5'0 with a 26 waist and 36 hips. I hope that BeBe will produce a different jeather legging so that I can pair it with the leather top that I purchased.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BebeGirl81 from Great leggings at a great price! I absolutely love these leggings!! I even ordered a second pair--the last XS pair online (sorry, girls)--as backup just in case something ever happened to my original pair. They're one of the better quality faux leather leggings that I've seen lately. Yes, the material is thinner, but I think it makes them easier and more comfortable to wear. I received so many compliments. Definitely a must-have item.

With multitasking an increasing fact of life for us all, it's no surprise that machine tools continue to evolve into increasingly multifunction machine platforms, as well.
Let's be honest, though, multifunction machines are not exactly new. For example, machines with processes that work together providing several functions, such as milling, turning, drilling, tapping, measurement, and EDM have been around for a number of years as requirements have changed.
I've also seen a number of interesting things on the exhibit floors at manufacturing trade shows, such as RAPID and IMTS, that employ traditional multifunctional capabilities, but have been most intrigued by a new emerging class of hybrid 3D printers that employ both additive manufacturing (AM) and subtractive (conventional machining) methods. Some of these innovative hybrid machines follow.

The essay 'Horse's Hoofs' by Chuangtse(c.335-c.275) is given in part here below.
Horses have hoofs to carry them over frost and snow and hair to protect them from wind and cold. They eat grass and drink water, and fling up their tails and gallop. Such is the real nature of horses. Ceremonial halls and big dwellings are of no use to them.
One day Polo(Sun Yang 658-619 BC-a legendary horse trainer) appeared, saying,'I am good at managing horses." So he burned their hair and clipped them, and pared their hoofs and branded them. He put halters around their necks and shackles around their legs and numbered them according to their stables. The result was that two or three in every ten died. Then he kept them hungry trotting them and galloping them, and taught them to run in formations, with the misery of the tasseled bridle in front and the fear of the knotted whip behind, until more than half of them died.
The potter says,' I am good at managing clay. If I want it round,I use compasses;if rectangular a square." The carpenter says," I am good at managing wood. If I want it curved,I use an arc; if straight, a line". But on what grounds can we think that nature of clay and wood desires this application of compasses and square, and arc and line? Nevertheless every age extols Polo for his skill in training horses, and potters and carpenters for their skill with clay and wood. Those who govern the affairs of the empire make the same mistake.
I think one who knows how to manage the empire should not do so. For the people have certain natural instincts-to weave and clothe themselves, to till the fields, and feed themselves. This is their common character, in which all share. Such instincts may be called 'heaven- born'. So in the days of perfect nature, men were quiet in their movements and serene in their looks…. For in the days of perfect nature, man lived together with birds and beasts , and there was no distinction ..who could know of the distinction..? Being all equally without knowledge, their virtue would not go astray. Being all equally without desires, they were in a state of natural integrity. In this state of natural integrity, the people did not lose their (original) nature…'
This essay becomes all the more relevant when we consider the Human Rights abuses record of the Chinese regime. When man has lost his integrity he needs controls. And who applies controls but those who are as clueless as the governed? This is a vicious circle into which abuse of power is added because of the fear and certainly is a direct result of power wrongly applied. Fear of the rulers is that their ignorance may be seen through so they apply the whip all the more harshly. At least these ignoramuses know those who are smarting from the whiplashes cannot think straight or see as they might in a calm and settled mind would. The sage of recent memory albeit a fool, who spoke of perpetual revolution merely rephrased the fear of every megalomaniac that he will be found out

Ulrich being released, which gives them the DR they needed to mix with Selma or Dalhia or Eklore if you use a leader.
Smokey Cr's, Dalhia's and Hawkins' Bluff threat.
Leaders that can be used with the clan :
Eklore - Makes Pill Manipulation even more effective and gives you a more room for error.
Morphun - Makes Pill Manipulation more effective, gives room for error, and let's you play very aggresively
Hugo - Helps with no pillz bluffs and Makes Tula absolutely a beast
Eyrik - Helps cards like Smokey Cr and Hawkins and Tula have 8 power or virtually 8 power(Tula's case) and makes Tyd and Dalhia amazing
They are great in half-decks
Beast Mono deck for Pill manipulation - Dalhia, Tula, Hawkins, Smokey Cr, Selma, Tyd, Ulrich, Spycee

@B-Ba11: As I said, that is perhaps Spycee's only use. He gets a mere 5-4 advantage over Caelus and Copper (for Caelus, I'd use Tula for the extra damage too). His damage is horrible, and his power is lame. Not many at least experienced Piranas users, like myself, use Spycee.
Morlha's 4 damage is even more of a threat than Spycee.
@K1NG_Pwn4G3: I just love it when peeps throw out DR cards with high min.'s since they aren't as effective against Piranas. That's 2 pillz and 2 health down, thank you.
Agito_King Guru D-Versified Wednesday 19/05/2010, 03:25
Ambre sure she is a bit predictable, but hey you just gotta be more sneakier!
I like using her, while waiting till Morphun is banned and I get him, but hey, she still works
XC Chase Titan E X C A L I B U R Wednesday 19/05/2010, 03:40
Call yourself an experianced Piranas user when I have won more games with Piranas then you have played in games combined with any clan.
You haven't gotten 1400 ELO with Piranas, I have
That is also kind of going against Andyman's statement.
Spycee is used inevery Mono Piranas deck I see especially if you just put EKlore in there for one of the 5 * Piranas
0 Anderson Imperator Time Conquers All Wednesday 19/05/2010, 03:46
Bball, you got to 1400 once!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your pretending to be an expert when youve only accomplished this feat once. i dought you could consistantly get 1400 every week.
-0-broseidon Imperator Wednesday 19/05/2010, 22:21
I think that the piranas need more cards with more damage
spamg88-LoA Veteran Thursday 20/05/2010, 02:56
I don't have a high Elo record because I don't concentrate on Elo as much as I do Daily Tournaments and practicing effective decks. My win-loss ratio is also higher than yours, although that doesn't matter as much. I rarely see Spycee used outside of newbie and budget decks and your guide. Kristin is used far more than him, and I believe shadowcouncil has gotten a higher Elo with Kristin; however, I personally don't use Kristin very often myself, as I utilize a GHEIST-Piranas using a 10* Piranas half-deck, as well as a featherweight round-winning Piranas and a Jackie HugUppers deck.
Spycee definately has his uses, but too few and far in between for me to like him much.
XC Chase Titan E X C A L I B U R Thursday 20/05/2010, 03:45
Actually Andyman i have gotten it every week for the past 3 weeks.
So consistently, yes I have.
I plan on getting it this week as well.
Right now I have only 4 losses.
Piranas is good but not in Mono halfdeck Piranas is great
spamg88-LoA Veteran Friday 21/05/2010, 02:03
Piranas is great in halfdeck, yes, but they are also very effective in Mono. FAST IS FUN has, I believe, won a tournament using 8 Piranas + Hugo. In elo they are still pretty good, last time I checked.
Spycee also has no place in a halfdeck Piranas. Tula, Hawkins, and even Hawkins Noel (to an extent) are all better than him/use that space better.
Agito_King Guru D-Versified Friday 21/05/2010, 03:52
I actually like Spycee in mono Piranas.... he works unexpectedly sometimes, I'd rather use him than Hawkins Noel IMO though he does have a of competition
Trippie Titan Open Casket Friday 21/05/2010, 16:01
"Piranas is good but not in Mono halfdeck Piranas is great"
You just shot yourself in the foot. You've been bragging all this time about how Spycee is a great card, but I doubt you use him in your 1400 decks..
OK now back to topic.
Taljion, Smokey Cr, Tyd, Ulrich and Hawkins are all staples in mono - Piranas I believe.
You can put Tula in and have a 5* and 4* spot remaining, where you can choose Dalhia/Selma/Pesth/Bloodh/Leader + Kristin/Scubb/Sting.
If you cannot afford Smokey Cr, then downgrade him to Hawkins Noel, and then add in Tula and two 5* cards.
I still don't think Piranas are a consistent 1400 clan because one mistake and you're gone. After 1300 you have to win pretty much every game and so they require too much precision. A more stable SoA and another DR would give them that potential though.

I realize that there may be many people on here that, like me, have not gotten to 1400 or be willing to share their secret. I, for my part, have been able to score somewhat often over 1300 with a personal best of 1378, but I have not gotten to the magic 1400, which is my aspiration and goal.
So, for those of you chosen experts, do you have any advice, any strategy?
Do you have a special deck, or special decks?
Do you choose to play at certain times of the day or on certain days?
Do you find a specific playing style that works particularly better?
Do you find different competition at different levels of the event?
What do you do if you get into a slump or losing streak?
Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks sincerely for your time and response.
AGPrinz Titan The BeSharps Saturday 22/05/2010, 10:47
I think they cheat. i think they are able to see how many pills you use on your cards. I don't have any proof, but i have looked around, and it seems that this game isnt hack proof. Thats just my guess tho.
LetheanTears Guru TRiNiTY Saturday 22/05/2010, 12:47
I got to 1400 ELO once, I did it with a deck that was, at the time, one of the the best ELO decks at the time and I spent the time to learn how to really play my deck and learn common moves. It was actually pretty easy, till I got to +1400
Learn a mojority of the plays in the game mode. Makes it easy to know how to pill.
Get a deck that is not only top tier but also a deck that you KNOW how to play.
I never really cared about the time of day...
I like damage :3
Different ELO levels play much differently than others, if that's what you mean.
I play sum Creedance Clearwater Revival and chill out for second or two. Does the trick 98.6% of the time.

@ DiceMoney
"I think they cheat. i think they are able to see how many pills you use on your cards. I don't have any proof"
could you please refrain from posting something like that, when even you yourself realise how questionable your own opinion is?
as for 1400 ELO play... it is pretty tough
1300 is quite easy... beyond say 1350 it becomes harder because at this point you are now facing potential 20 point losses for each game you lose and only gaining maybe 12 points for a win.
you need a bit of a win streak to get up from the 1350s into the 1400's.
Hopefully a regular 1400+ Elo player will comment. I only play till 1300. And when i do have a couple of extra hours i try for 1400 i am successful at it only 50% of the time id say, then i just give up for the week
Vinyl-Scratch Titan D-Versified Saturday 22/05/2010, 19:38
I have no idea. I get stuck on 1399 twice. :'(

Vinyl-Scratch Titan D-Versified Saturday 22/05/2010, 19:41
Sorry for posting 3 times but whatever
What you need is a awesome deck, a good deck wouldn't cut it. You need a awesome deck. You also need to dedicate loads of time to ELO and know how to play and predict what your opponents needs to do.
@Waster Sorry I'm not 1400 but you got a 1399 ELO player to post.
TnT_Mathwiz Imperator Saturday 22/05/2010, 19:52
ELO is all about predicting your opponents' moves. Unless you are lucky enough to get past 1400 by pure instinct and blind guessing, you will need to literally play each round in your opponents' shoes. It is tough, but with practice your prediction skills will become much better.
0 Anderson Imperator Time Conquers All Sunday 23/05/2010, 00:26
@ math not neccisarrily. And this is what most people think which can sometimes be their downfall. Typically, what works for me is ONLY pilling hard on my heavy hiters. Either than that, I only play 0-2 pillz on my weaker cards.

Christmas is fast approaching, which fills me with excitement and joy.
I love to watch my kids open their advent calendar windows each morning. I love the smell of freshly cut evergreens around my house, and I love to make and eat all the treats that are customary in my family around the holidays.
In the next few weeks, we will busily make many homemade kitchen gifts. Rather than buy presents for everyone on our list, we make things.
We started with Caramel Turtles. It took little encouragement to get my kids into the kitchen to make these. They are so good it is plain to see we will need to make several batches in order to get enough to friends and family.
We have eaten a large percentage of them already. How could we not pecans, caramel and chocolate.
We lined a couple of baking sheets with parchment, and the kids arranged five pecans for each candy. They shaped them so once the caramel was poured, the pecans would look like four feet sticking out.
I made the caramel, because candy-making is so hot and can really burn badly. I am not ready for my children to help with that, though Emma, 11, has assisted with a couple of candy projects in the past. She is very cautious.
Molly, 9, put some chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler and got that going, while Clay, 8, watched the pot of dangerously hot sugar boil away he is always up for a walk on the wild side.
Once the caramel was cooked to the appropriate temperature, I let it cool so the kids could help make the candies. This was great because it gave the caramel a chance to thicken and not spread as much as it would have had I immediately poured it right over the pecans.
The kids used a large spoon and poured a glob of caramel over the nuts, keeping the feet visible. Once the caramel was cool, the kids used another spoon to drizzle some chocolate over the caramel. We did not go too heavy on the chocolate if you want more, make a whole layer.
Let them cool completely, which may be difficult to do when they look so good.
It goes without saying that these were a big hit. We are stockpiling, keeping them in the fridge until we have enough to make a few packages as gifts.
Rather than buying Grandma or your neighbor a scarf, get your kids to help make some homemade treats for holiday gifts. This recipe is sure to please any sweet-tooth on your list.

The University of Virginia School of Medicine receives applications
for admission that greatly exceed the number of places in the entering class.
The Admissions Committee is thus placed in the position of having to choose
a class from among an applicant population in which the number of academically
qualified applicants far exceeds the number of available places. While the School
of Medicine could choose its class solely on the basis of academic potential,
neither the public nor the profession would be best served by an admissions
process that was limited to selecting students by GPA and MCAT scores alone.
The faculty believes that the educational process at the School, as well as
the medical profession itself, is best served by an admissions process that
will result in the selection of a diverse and multi-talented student body. To
that end, the School has formulated an admissions policy that takes into consideration
individual skills and characteristics that might not necessarily be directly
related to academic ability.
Admission to the School of Medicine will be granted to those
applicants who, in the opinion of the Admissions Committee, will make the most
significant contributions to society as members of the medical profession. In
making its determination the School will consider factors such as: (1) the applicants
general academic ability based upon a careful examination of all academic transcripts,
including factors such as the grade-point average, the selectivity of the school
attended, the difficulty of the curriculum in which the degree was earned and
the hours spent on outside employment or other time-consuming extracurricular
activities; (2) the applicants capacity for the academic study of medicine
based upon the MCAT score, and (3) other relevant personal qualities and characteristics
of the applicant, including factors such as the applicants career goals,
cultural and educational background and experiences, moral character, leadership
qualities, commitment to community service, ability to think and act independently,
and interpersonal and communication skills. The applicant should seek to have
those persons writing letters of recommendation discuss such factors. To access
the online-electronic application, please see the following website:
Association of American Medical Colleges
American Medical College Application Service
2501 M Street, NW, LBBY-26
Washington, DC 20037-1300
(202) 828-0635
Preference will be given to students who, by the time of matriculation,
will have received the bachelors degree at a United States or Canadian
college or university. The following required college science courses must be
completed prior to matriculation:
Biology (with lab)
1 year
General Chemistry (with lab)
Organic Chemistry (with lab)
Physics (with lab)
Selection of Candidates The selection of students for
admission to the School of Medicine is made by the Committee on Admissions,
composed of members of the faculty of the School of Medicine and a select group
of fourth-year medical students. Applicants are considered only after all credentials
have been received. Applicants who have been denied admission previously are
not encouraged to reapply unless there is a demonstrated improvement in their
academic and non-academic credentials. The number of students in the entering
class is limited to 141 students.
Method of Application The University of Virginia School
of Medicine is one of the participating schools in the American Medical College
Application Service (AMCAS) sponsored by the Association of American Medical
Colleges. Applications may be accessed directly from their website: www.aamc.org.
AMCAS applications must be submitted no later than November 1 of the year prior
to the year of proposed enrollment. Students are selected and notified of their
acceptance on a rolling admissions basis beginning October 15; therefore, early
application is advantageous. All applicants will be required to pay a $75 non-refundable
application processing fee unless granted a fee waiver.
Requirements for Admission Applicants should note that
the University of Virginia School of Medicine considers applications only from
students who are enrolled in or who have graduated from United States or Canadian
colleges and universities. Applicants who are not U.S. citizens or permanent
residents of the U.S. are eligible to apply provided they have completed (or
will complete) their undergraduate course work in a U.S. or Canadian college
or university.
Selection of College Courses The required courses listed
above form the essential background for the scientific study of medicine. Many
courses contributing to a well-rounded liberal education are of direct value
and, though proficiency in the sciences is essential to the understanding of
medicine, concentration on the sciences is not necessary. Medicine is concerned
with a variety of social and community problems and requires a broad cultural
background as well as technical education.
Advanced placement courses are acceptable if such courses are
clearly indicated on the undergraduate college transcript as having been accepted
by the college toward fulfillment of requirements for the bachelors degree.
However, students are expected to pursue advanced courses if advanced placement
credit was awarded for any of the required science courses listed above (including
laboratory work). Students pursuing a graduate or professional degree must complete
the program requirements prior to entrance into medical school.
Technical Standards Applicants to the University of
Virginia School of Medicine are considered without regard to disability but
with the expectation that they can complete all parts of the curriculum. In
addition to certain academic standards, candidates for the M.D. degree must
have abilities and skills in observation, communication, motor function, quantification,
abstraction, integration, conceptualization, and interpersonal relationships
and social behavior. Some disabilities in certain of these areas may be overcome
technologically, but candidates for the medical degree must be able to perform
in a reasonably independent manner without the use of trained intermediaries.
Those desiring additional information on this matter may contact the Admissions
Office for the full Technical Standards Policy.
Medical College Admission Test The Medical College Admission
Test is required of all applicants. All students must present scores from tests
taken no later than the fall of the year prior to the year of matriculation,
and no earlier than the spring of three years prior to the year of matriculation.
Further information concerning this test is available from college premedical
advisors, or from the AAMC website: www.aamc.org.
Personal Interview Students are not accepted without
a personal interview. Selected individuals are invited for interviews after
review of their completed application. The Admissions Committee does not grant
regional interviews, telephone interviews, or interviews by applicant request.
Transfer Applicants Transfer applications are accepted
for entrance into the third-year class if there are vacancies due to attrition.
Transfer applicants must be in good standing at a United States allopathic medical
school, and preference will be given to Virginia residents or to individuals
who have compelling reasons to be in Charlottesville. All students accepted
for transfer into the third-year class will be required to complete two full
years of the curriculum at the University of Virginia School of Medicine and
pay the appropriate tuition and fees.
Correspondence concerning admission should be addressed to
the Director of Admissions, UVa School of Medicine, P.O. Box 800725; Charlottesville,
VA 22908-0782; (434) 924-5571; fax: (434) 982-2586; email@example.com.

Baltimore Pre-Release Unit for Women
Important Inmate Phone System Changes
As a result of a recent telephone vendor contract award, friends and family of inmates housed at all DPSCS correctional facilities should be aware of some minor disruptions in service in the coming weeks. With the introduction of this new vendor we hope to provide you improved inmate telephone services at the same, and in some cases, lower costs. This Advanced Pay brochure from the new vendor has been distributed to the inmate population and may be useful for you as well.
The actual change-over for (name of facility) will happen (date from spreadsheet). A six business day transitional period will take place (dates from spreadsheet called black-out), during which time inmates will only be able to make collect calls as no debit or pre-paid calls will be permitted. If no collect call account is set-up, the inmate will be unable to make calls that week. During the transitional period dates, inmates will also not be able to submit telephone vouchers.
Although the previous vendor Securus will transfer inmate balances (purchases made by inmates) during the cut-over period to the new vendor Global Tel* Link, family members will have to contact Securus directly for refunds on purchases they (family members) made from Securus in the past. If you currently have an account with Securus you may be receiving a call further explaining your options from the new vendor in the near future.
We apologize for any inconvenience this vendor transfer may cause in trying to reach a loved one at a DPSCS facility and thank you for your cooperation.

AMD Phenom II X6 1075T, X4 970, X2 560, Athlon II X4 645, X3 450 & X2 265 Review
From time to time a processor manufacturer will tweak current silicon, pushing a more stable clock speed. This is what gives us different processors speeds in the same family such as the Intel i7 and AMD Phenom II series. These tweaks, or "speed bumps" as they are sometimes referred to, are what bring us the faster or slower models. This is quite common in computer memory where some chips are "binned" at higher speed levels. This is how the same series memory can have 1333MHz with CAS 9 or 1600MHz with CAS 7 when using the same memory chips. While processors are not binned, the silicon is from time to time tweaked and that brings up the next model in a series. AMD uses a process called Automated Precision Manufacturing (APM) to make constant process improvements to its silicon.
Today we are going to be taking a look at several "updates" to the Phenom II and Athlon II line in which the process was able to tweak and improve the current silicon, creating a faster batch of chips. From the Phenom II line we have the X6 1075T, which AMD markets to bridge the gap between the higher end 1090T and the entry six core 1055T. There is also the X4 970, which is a bump up from the X4 965 and the X2 560, which is next in line after the X2 555. On the Athlon II side we have the newer X4 645 quad core, X3 450 triple core and the X2 265 dual core, all taking their respective leads.
Closer Look:
AMD like any manufacturer will, from time to time, make these improvements that make a new part number with better speeds and abilities such as overclocking and lower temperatures. These releases are what keep us going when waiting for a whole new product, like maybe a Phenom III or perhaps a Phenom II X8? Either way, when a new processor comes out I cannot wait to get my hands on it and push it to the dirt. As with most of us reading here, overclocking is a passion and usually our first thoughts are how high we can push the hardware. Today we are going to be looking at three new Phenom II series and three new Athlon II series chips that are "speed bumps" from current hardware. These are designed to fill the gaps until the next major release. So how much better will these be than their counterparts? That is what we are here to find out.
The first CPU up on the bench is the AMD Phenom II X6 1075T, codename Thuban, which is the latest hexa core release from AMD. Designed using a 45nm manufacturing process, the X6 1075T is designed to fill the gap between the higher end X6 1090T Black Edition and the entry six core X6 1055T. The Phenom II X6 1075T is clocked at a modest 3.0GHz and has a turbo core speed of 3.5GHz. In case you are not familiar with Turbo Core, it is a technology built into AMD's six core chips that will turn off three cores when the full weight of the processor is not needed and automatically pushes up the speed of the active three cores to provide a small boost to compensate. The X6 1075T has all of the same features of the other AMD six cores, including HyperTransport 3.0 support for AM2+ and AM3 motherboard with the ability to run with DDR2 and DDR3 memory. The X6 1075T also features the same 512KB per core, 3MB total L2 cache and a shared 6MB L3 cache. The maximum TDP for the X6 1075T is 125 watts and if it's just like it's big brother I suspect it should have some good overclock speeds. The Phenom II X6 1075T is to be released at $245.
The next processor up on the testing bench is the latest of the Deneb line, the AMD Phenom II X4 970. This processor takes the flagship quad core spot from the widely used and respected X4 965. The X6 970 pushes the stock speed to a blistering 3.5GHz, which makes it the highest clocked Phenom II chip available. The X4 970 is also a Black Edition processor, which gives it an unlocked multiplier, allowing for easier overclocks by keeping all of the other hardware at their stock speeds since the reference clock does not have to be altered to overclock the CPU. The Phenom II X4 970 also has the same combined L2 cache of 2MB and shared L3 cache of 6MB as the X4 960. The maximum TDP of the 970 is 125 watts and it supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memory, depending on the motherboard platform it is paired with. The Phenom II X4 970 is to released at a low $185.
The last of the Phenom II processors we are looking at is a dual core offering, codenamed Calisto, which is the Phenom II X2 560. Like the X4 970 above, this is a Black Edition chip that has an unlocked multiplier allowing for easier and sometimes higher overclocks. This processor brings a new hope to the X2 line with a higher stock clock speed of 3.3GHz and of course, the possibility of being unlocked to a four core processor as we have seen in the past with some Phenom II X2 chips. This processor features a 1MB total L2 cache and a shared 6MB of L3 cache. As with other AM3 processors it also features HyperTransport 3.0 and supports DDR2 and DDR3 memory depending on the motherboard platform chosen to run on. It has a maximum TDP of 80 watts, which is lower than the X6 and X4 on the test benches today. At release, the Phenom II X2 560 is set to be a really low $105, which gives this CPU a great bang for the buck. If you are a lucky one to get a version that can be unlocked to all four cores, you definitely have a low cost gem.
Now we move on to the Athlon II line with the first chip codenamed Propus, the Athlon II X4 645. This chip takes the lead from the X4 640 and is clocked at a higher 3.1GHz. Unlike the Phenom II line, the Athlon II processors do not have an L3 cache so the X4 645 is limited to 512KB of L2 cache per core, or 2MB total. The Athlon II line also supports HyperTransport 3.0 and can be paired with DDR2 memory on an AM2+ motherboard as well as DDR3 memory on an AM3 motherboard. The Athlon II X4 645 has a maximum TDP of 95 watts, which makes it a bit cooler than the Phenom II quad cores. None of the Athlon IIs are Black Edition processors so there will be no unlocked multipliers here so I am intrigued to see how well the X4 645 overclocks. At release, the Athlon II X4 645 will run $122.
Next up in the Athlon II line is AMD's latest Triple Core, the Athlon II X3 450, codenamed Rana. Triple core processors are designed to bridge the gap between the lower end dual cores and the higher end quad cores. The addition of an additional core gives you a bit of a boost without having to spend a lot of money on a quad core processor. At release, the X3 450 is to be going for a mere $87, which is a good price point from the more expensive X4 645 but offers increased power from the dual cores. The Athlon II X4 450 is clocked at 3.2GHz and has a combined L2 cache of 1.5MB, or 512KB per core. Again, the Athlon IIs do not have an L3 cache. This processor is also an AM3 CPU and is backwards compatible with all the features and support of socket AM2+ motherboards.
Finally we have the last Athlon II on the test bench, the dual core Athlon II X2 265, codenamed Regor. The Athlon II X2 line is the budget CPU for those wanting stable computing without having to break the bank. Priced at only $76 at launch, it is the cheapest processor out of the bunch today but will not be counted out. The X2 265 packs the largest per core L2 cache out of the Athlon IIs with 1MB per core instead of the usual 512KB. This brings the total L2 cache of the X2 265 to 2MB, which is more than the total L2 of the triple core X3 450 above. With one less core but more cache, it will be interesting to see where the X2 sits performance-wise. Everything else is the same with the X2 including HyperTransport 3.0 and support for both AM2+ and AM3 motherboards along with DDR2 and DDR3 memory support.
Now that we have seen the newest batch of CPUs, let's see how they perform for us.
