Understanding what Users Need
Do you know what is the product you should be developing and promoting?
A piece of jade as a polished rock is a product on a showcase. It may be worth something, but a healing bracelet or a cultural ornament is going to be worth much more, especially if there is some mystical charm associated with it. Successful merchants know this and always highlight these values.
The product that the Lego company makes are very versatile coloured blocks of varying sizes, but not sold and promoted as such. With a few additional customised shapes, they can be Star Wars spaceships, or Bionicle robots, Toy Story cars and trains, dolls houses, and so on. Each packaged in colourful individualised containers to be collected and reassembled in the dozens by teenagers the world over. Although the 'product' is 'merely' plastic blocks but their real 'product' has become "educational, learning and construction toys"!
So what is the product you will be marketing and promoting?
Understanding what users really want to do with your product is key to market success. It is much more than merely designing and developing your idea of what a product should be. You have to imagine what the user really want to use them for and why they want to buy it – and then you have to consider whether you have provided all the important features.
Let's look at a simple drill bit. People buy it to make a hole, period. It is to make a hole in stone, wood, concrete, whatever. How complicated can it get? But from the user's perspective, the hole they want may be in building concrete, in which case a hammer drill may be needed. Or for fine carpentry – then a high performance one is needed. Or for metal work, it needs a stable drill stand and other accessories. The rise of home improvement in developed countries gave rise to a new category – the DIY enthusiast – products that look good, macho and still functional.
What if you are designing an innovative heat dissipation device? Do you know who will use it? How? Who will buy them? They may be different from people who use them. Where from? Why?
The questions are the same for software as well as hardware products. If you have just developed an innovative mobile payment system, how will the users use them? Will they like it? Who will make it possible for them to use the system? (Read more about StreamMedia.)
Prior to Apple's iPod, there had already been at least 20 companies producing MP3 players. Sony with the Walkman had previously shown that the market for music on the go is huge. But these MP3 player manufacturers, some in US, Europe, Korea and many in Taiwan, each struggled to have any significant success in that market – until Apple came along.
Apple understood what the user really needed in addition to the hardware is to be able to access the music seamlessly. It is just as important to provide an easy to use interface to download the music, just as there was a ready market for music cassettes with the Walkman.
The Apple App Store made it simple and seamless to load music to the iPod. In doing so, Apple completely killed music cassettes and the Walkman. Sony simply did not see it coming. The MP3 player companies had partially understood what people needed for music on the go, but did not understand the user also needed a seamless easy way to load the music to the player, or perhaps they did not have the approach to make it happen! (Read more about Apple's Strategy.)
Make sure you truly understand the user needs for your product before you can consider that your product is ready for market release.

Hi Eng Tong:
Great post, very practical and accessible. I always suggest that would-be entrepreneurs try to become – to the extent possible – part of the "community" of those they purpose to sell to. This helps them understand the needs, "language" and trends of these buyers. Ultimately, it also builds crerdibility and responsiveness.

Hello, Everyone! I appreciate each one of you for taking an interest into my blog, where you will find everything true|raw|real with me. I am 25 years old, currently living in Winston-Salem, NC while I nanny after-school and earn my Master's in Business (MBA) online through my collegiate alma mater, East Carolina University (go Pirates!), where I earned a Bachelor's in Business Administration (BSBA), with a concentration in Marketing. I love traveling, winewinewinewinewine, running, cooking and my two cats and little bunny. Oh, and wine. I have only been blogging for a few months now and am now trying to catch up for all the posts I have missed out on documenting over the past two years. While I've been earning my MBA online, I have had the flexible pleasure to take that time to travel and discover me. I never had the opportunity as a child to see the world and was too busy saving money to enjoy spring break with my college friends. Thus, I have been taking advantage of doing my grad classes online so I can expand my mind on the world and discover. I want to share all of my worldly experiences with you, past and future trips, through The Retreat.
This past year in 2016 has been a new one for me. I have discovered and taken upon myself to live, to my fullest ability, each day through a holistic lifestyle. It all started when I was intrigued by a celebrity to try out supplemental dusts into my daily routine. This was the start of my new lifestyle: expanding my mind, eating clean, giving back to my body and more! I began to discover different holistic, wellness and lifestyle blogs that basically became the new version of my morning paper. This new lifestyle has really helped ground me through all of the stress grad school has brought me over the past two years. It has helped me love myself more and appreciate all that I do for myself, my mind and my body. Our body does so much for us, I mean think about it, it keeps up breathing, loving, thinking, how could we NOT want to give back to it what it gives us each day (and, technically, night). I enjoy giving back to my body through running and eating. I don't count calories. Ever. I eat for nutrients and never for cravings. Food is amazing and can be even more amazing if we all take time to slow down and pay attention to what we are eating, enjoying what's going into our bodies and never feeling guilty from it. I still eat everything I want, never once have I been on a diet. But, I do it in a smart way (I want the burger, but can't I still enjoy it without the bun?). I love cooking, especially for a big group of people-I get that from my dad-and experimenting with new foods. I used to be picky, nowadays I feel like I am limiting myself by being picky. Join me in my cooking journey through The Kitchen. If there are any recommendations I always love to hear them!
I decided on Caroline's Nook because I didn't want to be limited to one theme of a blog. I want to share my travels, my outfits, my recipes, my photography, my lifestyle, my interests, my typical day, my random thoughts and random discoveries(The Nook). I want this to be a blog that each and every one of you enjoy. If you have comments, questions, tips or suggestions PLEASE contact me. I want this blog to be just as much you as it is me. Feel free to check out my social links at the top and I also have a Snapchat (cwmiller0914) for all of my daily doings. I hope you enjoy and welcome to my little nook of the world!

My scraproom was previously upstairs in a large loft area. About a year ago, I made the decision to move it into the downstairs bedroom. Because I work as a daycare provider in my home, I spend the majority of my time downstairs. So it just made more sense for me, to have my space close to me. I can find time here and there, throughout the day, to work on projects. And all of my supplies are close at hand.
This is the view walking into my space. It's a fairly small room, but I have made it work for me. I have my desk (from Target) in the middle of the room, in front of the window. I have this weird quirk, about not wanting my back to the door when I work. I like being able to see out the door, into the rest of the house.
I went from working on a 4'x8' island, to this much smaller desk. I think this has been my biggest adjustment, just getting used to less room to groove when I'm working. I keep two of the Making Memories desktop carousel's on my desk. One that holds all my most used tools and adhesives. And one that holds a random assortment of new products and products I want to remember to use. I also have my Making Memories embellishment box, that holds the majority of my brad collection. On the bottom shelves of the desk, I keep some bins that hold my most used punches, more tools, and more adhesive. I also have some baskets and jars of ribbons and other embellishments.
I have two of the Ikea Expedit shelves in my scraproom. This first one is to the right of my desk (if you were sitting at my desk). The top row of this shelf holds my collection of idea books and magazines. The next row down holds most of my pattern paper. I keep my pattern paper in the verticle paper holders, and they are all organized by manufacturer. The middle row holds all my cardstock, which is stored in the horizontal trays, by color. The bottom two rows have baskets and bins. These hold paper scraps, more cardstock, some mini albums, alterable items, and other assorted things.
I only have two walls to work with in this room. One wall is almost all window, one wall is all closet, and that leaves me two walls. Those are the walls that hold my Expedit shelves. I lucked out, since they fit perfectly around this second window in the room.When I'm sitting at my desk, I'm looking directly at this second Expedit shelf. This shelves holds the majority of my embellishments. I use metal bins and baskets (all from Target), wicker baskets (all from Michaels), and some jars here and there (all from Target). I have recently replaced all the jars on the top shelves, with drawer units. I tend to organize one of two ways. Either by manufacturer, keeping everything from that manufacturer together. Or by type of product, mixing different manufacturers together for each type of product. I wish I could say that I had a system to this way of organizing, but I don't. It really just depends on the manufacturer, and product. I DO keep all the manufacturers that I design for, seperate. This makes it easier for me to work, when I have assignments.
To my left, when sitting at my desk, is the closet. This is one thing that I really love having again. When I was upstairs in the loft area, I didn't have any hidden space. No closets, no closed cabinets. I like that I can have an area that is hidden, that I don't have to worry about keeping pretty.
I already had these tall drawer units in the closet, so I utilized them for my supplies. In these drawers, I keep my stamps, inks, embossing supplies, die cutting tools, paints and glitters, and other supplies. In the other half of the closet, are more drawers that hold my two daugther's supplies and school stuff.
I did still keep my scrap island, from when my space was upstairs. It's located right outside my scraproom, in the playroom area in the front of the house. When I have larger projects going on, or just need room to spread out, I bring my supplies out to the island to work. It's nice that I still have that option, even though I do love my scraproom.

Reel Big Fish 2011 Tour
Stereoboard wrote:Reel Big Fish have revealed plans to play UK venues in 2011, announcing an eleven-date tour for February and March next year.
The Californian indie-rockers who have built up a cult following in the many years they have been going, and were experimenting with nu-metal and ska-punk long before Wheatus and Blink 182 were a twitch in their Daddy's guitar string. Superbly energetic and catchy melodies complemented by some driving guitar work. And their cover of 'Take On Me' is legendary.
A Reel Big Fish gig can guarantee you frenetic energy, crazy dancing, inspired covers and a world class horn. And not just the one horn, the entire horn section are horn legends. It might also give you a bit of an insight as to one of the places bands like Blink 182, Wheatus and No Doubt may have got some ideas from.
Reel Big Fish released a new studio album 'Fame Fortune and Fornication' on January 20, 2009 and it consists of 10 cover songs Another album, 'A Best of Us for the Rest of Us', featuring a 22-track disc of re-recorded songs and a 14-track disc of "Skacoustic" covers mixed by producer Eric Barker, was released earlier this year on July 20, 2010
Currently recording new songs, plans are laid for Reel Big Fish to release a new album with all new material in late 2011.
Reel Big Fish will play the following 2011 UK Shows:
Fri 18th Feb - Nottingham Rock City
Sat 19th Feb - Newcastle Academy
Sunday 20th Feb - Glasgow Academy
Wed 23rd Feb - Manchester Academy
Thurs 24th Feb - Cardiff University
Fri 25th Feb - London HMV Forum
Sun 27th Feb - Birmingham Academy

Article from Xboxic.com:
The EGM rumour section is at it again. Making it the third rumour posted on Xboxic this month already, the next little snippet suggests that Rez, the famous wacky game on the PS2 and Dreamcast, will be coming to the Arcade in the near future.
I wonder if in actuality it's going to be Every Extend Extra (another Mizuguchi game) instead.
Though a sequel is long-overdue, playing an upscaled Rez on either console would tide a lot of us over.

More Fashion and Style posts, so here's a 15 question Style tag.
- I love to shop for my clothes at (give three stores)?
- Dynamite
- Everlane
- RW and Co
- Store you like to visit, but don't usually buy from?
Urban Outfitters, my sister loves to shop here, and while I like the store I rarely find anything I truly like.
- Last accessory you bought?
It was a necklace from Ardene, but I hardly wear it. It is blue and gold and is a statement necklace with metal feathers, but I think I need jewelry that's not so bulky.
- Do you own something you've never worn? What?
No, not since I switched to a minimal wardrobe.
- I put a lot of thought into what I wear, throw my clothes on quickly, or just like to be comfortable?
The main focus in comfort. But since everything in my closet relatively matches I can throw on just about anything and not worry about it.
- My closet is mostly full of?
¾ length sleeve tops. Like seriously why do I have so many tops like that.
- Most comfortable article of clothing I own is my?
My Crew Sweatshirt from Everlane.
- What hat would you never, ever wear?
I don't wear hats, never have, never will.
- What's your style?
I like a more sophisticated look so I've been searching for the perfect blazer, and I like blouses and I wear a lot of black or all-black most days. It makes me feel confident, while still being comfortable.
- Favourite t-shirt?
My Breakfast Club t-shirt my sister bought for me on Amazon.ca. I wear it all the time because I can throw on a pair of jeans and a cardigan in colder weather and just go. And I also love the movie.
- Favourite dress?
Navy blue dress from RW and Co, because it's actually the only dress I own. When it warms up here in Canada I'll be considering buying another dress or maybe a skirt, but I'm more of a jeans kind of girl.
- Favourite sweater?
Also my Crew Sweatshirt from Everlane.
- Favourite shoes?
We're still in the middle of a move so I'm down to one pair of everyday black boots at the moment, but over the warmer months my Birkenstocks are probably my favourite.
- Favourite bag?
I only have one and it's really all I need.
- Favourite earrings?
These green ones, because they are the matching ones to my ring.
Wow, I've never done a tag before, that was kind of fun. Coming up on the blog though will be a peek into my wardrobe and some go-to spring outfits.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Quantum
So what: NetApp will market and sell Quantum's StorNext File System and Storage Manager software worldwide, effective immediately. Combining Quantum's software with NetApp's hardware will create a system that makes it easier to share, manage, archive, and distribute on-demand videos -- a win for both companies.
Now what: Quantum's software will be peddled by a well-respected and rapidly growing company almost seven times its size. The deal should provide a meaningful boost to Quantum's sales of high-margin software and further benefit the company's earnings. The announcement did not hint, however, about whether the deal might stem years of revenue decline at Quantum.

Banking in the Connected Economy
Innovation and disruption continue at every level of digital banking. While many ideas reimagine existing processes and customer experiences, others enable growth through new business models. At the core of this transformation: the connected economy, with digital and data at its core.
The trend
Competing in this new economic era requires bankers to rethink technology and business alignment. Business leaders must also move to a new type of governance to adopt a digital mind-set that enables them to participate in a new digital banking ecosystem.
In this piece from Razorfish, we explore and highlight some of the innovations driving transformation in banking, from the need to get mobile right to rethinking core aspects of the banker's business model.

Okay, so I know that I've been on a link-up kick lately, but I seriously think they are the greatest thing, and for a few reasons! One, you get to interact with readers you normally wouldn't because you are visiting their blogs and they're visiting yours, and all the other good feels from that; Two, you are normally being pushed to write a little bit out of your element with different topics; and Three, it brings tons of positive exposure to not only my blog, but whoever is hosting the link-up, so it's sort of like free advertising for both ends.
On another note, all of these link ups are pointing to somethin' big over here at She Who Fears, so stay tuned because I promise you'll want in!
This week I'm linking up with Melyssa from The Nectar Collective to share with you my first (I know, not technically 47th but bear with me) set of weekly wishes which will consist of the goals or challenges I want to achieve or accomplish this week.
This Week's Wishes
- Take my time with Jesus seriously. Ugh. I feel like lately my time in the word has been so pitiful. I haven't been taking them seriously at all because I haven't really made them a serious priority. I have been letting other things distract this precious time that is supposed to be set aside so I'm going to try to wake up at normal person times (like 7am sounds too early to function but that's what I'm shooting for) and devote it solely to God and His Word and push distractions aside!
- Count my macros every day. Counting macros is actually a habit I picked up from my husband who is a bodybuilder. Before we got married I had gained lots of weight and so then I used the clean eating and cardio method to lose it all. THEN last summer when Miles picked up the IIFYM tips we both made the switch and I was able to finish losing the weight I needed to before actually setting a new (higher) goal weight to get up to in lean muscle. I was actually achieving my new higher goal weights and getting stronger too! Then I went on a vacation, ignored my macros for a week, and have never been consistent since. I know that if I was consistent for like a week I could get back on track, but I've just been lazy about it!
- Keep taking my vitamins like a champ. You guys. This is big news for me! I have taken my multivitamin every day for almost a month! It was always really hard for me to remember before and then all of a sudden it just clicked! I use a nifty period tracker app that reminds you to take your pill every day, and since I don't take a pill I just mark yes for my vitamin instead! Haha, improvising to the max. However, this upcoming week won't have those pill reminders (for a reason I'm sure you can all put together) and so I'm afraid I'll forget again! Nevertheless, the goal remains. Consistency is key with these things I guess.
- Write two more letters. Last week I wrote a couple letters and sent them to some family and friends that live out of state. I'd like to keep this trend up by sending more letters more often. I think that it's fun to have pen pals even if they're just like once a month, or every three months. Plus, now that I do most things via technology, my handwriting is getting outta waco and it's time to hone back in on those skills.
- More art. Later this week I'm going to update you guys (kinda) with a new blog schedule (kinda). Short story, I won't be blogging on weekends anymore. I hope that I can get rid of social media on the weekends altogether; however, I am pretty bad about staying offline so this might be a slow process. ANYWAYS, with all of that free time, I want to do more art! I have been really into watercolor and calligraphy lately, so maybe I'll just try and really conquer those two, or maybe I'll try some new mediums. We'll see--either way I'm pretty excited about this.

Currently, if you do not want to use voice commands to use Siri, you have to do things like add entries in the Calendar application by typing in your iPhone or iPad as you did a few years ago, to give an example. But with the new functionality of iOS 11, you can write something like "I have an appointment with the dentist on September 20 at 20:00" and Siri will be responsible for adding the entry to your iOS 11 Calendar app.
To activate this manual writing function in the iOS 11 Siri voice assistant, follow these simple steps:
1. Access Settings.
2. Tap General.
3. Enter the section Accessibility.
4. Click on Siri.
5. Enable the "Write to Siri" option.
And ready! Activating writing for Siri is as easy as that. From now on, you'll be able to write things like "Hey Siri, tell Jessica Jones not to be so hard on Matthew Murdock." When you enable the Apple Virtual Assistant, instead of the typical Siri user interface, a keyboard and the question "How can I help you" will appear.

J.K. Rowling's first adult novel, The Casual Vacancy, is being released in September 2012.
As someone who has worked in bookselling for 25 years believe me I know what a Big Deal this news is on many levels. As a reader who was never captured by the Harry Potter novels the news is of mild interest. As a consumer who buys on average ten to twenty books a month I am outraged that The Casual Vacancy is priced at $35.00.
$35.00. I kid you not. That the book is already heavily discounted for pre-publication sales at many places is a separate issue. Little Brown has priced this novel at $35.00. Why? Obviously because they think that this is what the market will bare. Do you think this book will be worth $35.00?
As the Harry Potter books came out their prices out paced the average adult hardcover novel by about $10.00 and were on average $17.00 more than other hardcover YA novels. Why? Because people were willing to pay that much for them. The whole thing was a phenomenon.
Although as I've said I have no desire to read The Casual Vacancy, I do have four relatives that will want it as soon as it is available. Ordinarily, as the book provider in the family I would buy them each a copy (As I did with all of the Potter novels.) but I'm not going to do that. I refuse to spend my money on this overpriced book. Let Little Brown and J.K. Rowling be as money grubbing as they want to be I am not going to contribute to their wealth.

I LOVE this idea!!! Do you do one page per week? I wish I had done this when my kids were born. My husband and I both write journals for our two kids from the time we knew I was pregnant with them...but doing a scrap book of the whole year is such an amazing idea! And I love your layouts, very modern looking.
I'm very jealous of your new iPhone! I'm hoping my Droid will die by the time the iPhone 5 comes out, lol. I have heard that the camera on the 4S is pretty amazing, so I'm not surprised most of your pictures are from your phone.

Okay, another situation that came up at CC. I am just putting here so I am clear next time it happens.
Looking through the Savage Worlds Forums i cam across the answer to this Q.
If you take 7 wounds in one go, do you have to start Soaking at 7. And the answer is YES! I agree with this, but I think I ruled otherwise, simply working back from Incapacitation.
Reasoning: Soak wounds apply BEFORE the wounds are even applied. They are simply vs the damage. :)
This could actually speed up battles with some of those big creatures, as I think Kathra would have done this twice.
Sorry, another oversight on my part, but I will not make that mistake again.

The Federal Government has recovered N7.8 billion, $378 million and 27,800 pounds through its whistleblower policy. The Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun, said this on Wednesday while briefing State House correspondents after the cabinet meeting.
She said that the government intended to institutionalize the whistleblower policy with a view to properly handling its increasing magnitude.
She said she also updated the council on the numbers of tips received, investigations dealt with and the types of monies recovered through the policy.
"I also reported that the whistleblower team has recently come back from a trip to the Uk. The United Kingdom government was giving us training on whistleblowing, how we should institutionalise it. The team spent some time with revenue office in the UK. They spent some time in customs office and they took them through what they have been able to do."
"I will be bringing the memo to the council. One of the things it has achieved is prevention. When they get the tips, they use it to block avenues for leakage. We have had a significant number tips. So, we will be coming back to institutionalise whistleblowing as a structure. It has become a central part of fighting corruption, giving us valuable information. Basically, whistleblowing is here to stay, giving us useful information," she said.
She said the FEC approved a three-year debt strategy to reduce Nigeria's reliance on short-time borrowing particularly treasury bills, 91 days treasury bills, "costing us 21% and moving from domestic borrowing into external borrowing.
"When we came in, what we were owing was 84 percent domestic and 16 percent external borrowing. We have moved to 77:23 as a result of Eurobonds that we have done and refinancing of maturing obligations. Our terms of maturity was 7.15. We have now extended it to 11.25. That gives a little bit of room to allow the investment we have made in capital projects to filter into our tax system and allows us to manage the debt."
"What that means is reducing our cost of funds and reducing our interest cost because the cost of borrowing is much less and in a planned manner and our average borrowing has reduced from 18% to about 14%. We are confident that as interest rates begin to ease, we will reduce our cost of borrowing even further."
The minister put the total capital budget released so far for 2017 at N1.248 trillion.
"l gave details of the big four areas and then others. So, Power, Works and Housing got N301.89 billion, defence 151.2 billion, Agriculture N119.9 bn, Transport N127.9 billion and other areas combined is N547.6 billion.
"We haven't closed yet. We are confident we will close the year roughly around where we closed last year. We will close around N1.3 trillion mark. So, our commitment to infrastructure spending remains very strong. That is what is going to drive the growth of the economy. That is what is going to drive jobs," she added.
Adeosun also disclosed that the government saved N68 billion on personnel cost in 2017, saying this brought the aggregate savings on personnel cost since 2007 to N288 billion.
The minister said the savings would have gone unaccounted for, assuring that they would be spent on capital projects.
Adeosun noted that the savings were made despite the rise in personnel, including the employment of 10,000 by the Nigerian Police.
She said 511 ministries, departments and agencies had been captured under the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information, with a staff count of 607,843.
"As at 20th March 2018, the number of MDAs on IPPIS Payroll is 469 with 316,158 Staff Count with a gross salary of N43,979,383,997.78 and 42 Police Commands and Formations paid on IPPIS Platform in February 2018 with Staff Count of 291,685 and gross salary of N22,276,669,257.21.
"Staff of Para-Military Agencies (Nigeria Immigration Service, Nigeria Prison Service and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps) enrolled to date is 100,822 for which a trial payroll of N11,456,278,859.00 have been sent for review and update for April 2018 payroll," Adeosun said.

BSOD Attempt to reset display driver failed
Hello I'm a new user to the forums, over the last few days I have been unable to start my Pc normally. If left to load after the "Starting Windows 7" screen, the Pc either BSODs with "Attempt to reset display driver failed" message appearing or my monitor shows "No signal from Pc". The only current work around for this I've found is to load the computer in safe mode then restart and let it load normally, it doesn't BSOD. If put into sleep mode, on waking up no signal is received, but I can still log in, as I can hear the sound through the speakers.
I am unsure as to whether this is a driver related issue or if it is due to my system now being pretty old.
Thanks for any help in advance :)

We cannot check the card in safe mode. So first let us try another version of the display driver.
Uninstall the display driver using Display driver uninstaller. Then download and install 13.9 WHQL or 13.1 WHQL. Does it happen the same? Let us know.
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
Removed the driver and reinstalled the legacy drivers, BSOD still happening. I can boot into normal mode on Windows, I just have to boot in safe mode first then restart, it will happily boot into normal mode from there.
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
If you can boot into normal mode, supply some data.
Click on the button below ....
It will download the DM log collector. Right click on the application and run as administrator. It will generate a .zip file on your desktop. Upload the .zip.

Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: Speccy - Publish Snapshot of your System Specs .
Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.

Also let us know the wattage of the PSU.

I thought I did post the .zip with my original post, or well atleast that's what I thought that program output, otherwise I have no idea where that Zip came from xD
With the calculator my system power draw is roughly 300w and the power supply is 405w.

The zip attached with your original post is not the complete set of files. We need the complete DM Log to proceed with troubleshooting.
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
No idea why it was only part of the files the first time, this should be all of them from a scan just now
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
Well, now as you are in normal mode, stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
Let us know the result.
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
Well I ran it for 20 mins, average fps of 3! and around 72°C under 99% load. I'll upload the Log files incase that's of any use
|My System Specs
|21 Oct 2014
I see that you have 13.9 WHQL installed throughout. I would suggest you to try 13.1 WHQL as a test.
Also, as the temps are not that high, and Furmark did not crash within 20 minutes, the scopes are very limited there.
Open the computer. Re-seat the graphics card. See if it changes anything there.

What we did on our holidays part 2: the Whitley Bay years
For a lot of the 1970s and early 1980s my dad was an officer in the ACF. He called it 'playing soldiers'. It didn't have that much impact on me, though I occasionally went out with him at weekends, and developed crushes of varying proportions on various boys (they were all boys) in uniform. I had my first 'nature wee' with the ACF, when we were doing something in a wood. I turned out not to be very good at it and my dad dried out the resulting yellow socks on the dashboard of the Austin Maxi.
In the summer, he would go off to play soldiers for two whole weeks. My mother often took us away on holiday at the same time, and for a couple of these years we went to Whitley Bay.
Now, I grew up about seven miles from Blackpool. Why we would therefore travel 150 miles across the country to stay in a seaside resort with an amusement park is still beyond me. It was certainly beyond my sister, who in those days used to get spectacularly travel sick. The first year we went, we got the coach, and then a taxi. Just as we pulled up at Mrs Cowan's, she vommed copiously over the back seat. I can still recall the taxi driver wiping sick off his vinyl while various women stood around wringing their hands.
Mrs Cowan's was a trad 1970s B&B, in that we had to be out between 9am and 5pm, the bathroom was down the hall, and hot water was only available for two hours a day. We shared scalding baths in the early evening before heading down to the dining room for a Three Course Dinner (thinking about it, it was a DB&B). The first course was always soup, reconstituted from powder stored in huge plastic tubs on top of the kitchen units, marked with things like Scotch Broth and Cream of Vegetable. There was tinned orange juice served in tiny glasses from a trolley. It was great.
After dinner we would watch TV in the TV lounge, and then head to bed so we could be up and out in the morning.
Which worked fine if it was sunny, and I impressed my first ever admirer (who was called Stephen - check him out!!) with a large crab I made out of pebbles. We went on a date to the Spanish City and he held my hand on the Waltzer when our mothers weren't looking.
But most of the time it was pelting down. We wandered between cafes and amusement arcades, making a dash for the beach or the climbing frames if the sun even threatened to come out. But a lot of the time there was no chance. Mrs Cowan generously relaxed the rules, and we spent long rainy afternoons watching TV and cutting things out of Richard Scarry books.
But one afternoon, my mother had had enough. Get your cagoules on, she said, we're going out. And off we went to the beach, to collect shells and seaweed in the middle of what Mick the Builder would call a Terminal Piss Down Situation. We were the only people in sight, not that we could see very far.
And then across the beach came a young woman in sandals, a summer skirt, and a far-from-all-weather coat. Trailing her was a miserable looking man with a large bag. They were a reporter and a photographer from the local paper, sent to find evidence of the Dunkirk spirit on what we later found out was "the wettest day in August for seven years". They took our photo, and ran it with some quotes about a little bit of rain never doing anyone any harm.
And you know what? It didn't.

Towards Dynamic Trot Gait Locomotion-Design, Control and Experiments with Cheetah-cub, a Compliant Quadruped Robot
Towards Dynamic Trot Gait Locomotion-Design, Control and Experiments with Cheetah-cub, a Compliant Quadruped Robot - Descarga este documento en PDF. Documentación en PDF para descargar gratis. Disponible también para leer online.
Published in: International Journal of Robotics Research (ISSN: 0278-3649), vol. 32, num. 8, p. 932 - 950 London: SAGE Publications, 2013
We present robot design and results from locomotion experiments with a novel, compliant quadruped robot: Cheetah-cub. The robot's leg configuration is based on a spring-loaded, panthograph-mechanism with multiple segments. A dedicated open-loop, joint-space locomotion controller was derived and implemented. Experimentally, we found high speed and dynamic gaits, and evaluated the robot's locomotion characteristics. Experiments were run in simulation and in hardware on flat terrain, and at a step-down obstacle. The robot reached a running trot with maximum speed of 1.42m/s, in the hardware experiments. This speed corresponds to a Froude number of 1.3, or 6.9 body lengths per second. Besides typical control parameters, also morphological parameters such as the leg design played a role for maximum robot speed. Our robot platform has several advantages, especially when compared to larger and stiffer quadruped robot designs. 1) It is the fastest (Froude number) trotting quadruped robot of its kind, light-weight, compact, electrically powered, and made from many off-the-shelf components. 2) The robot shows self-stabilizing behavior at increasing robot speed, with open-loop control. 3) It is cheap, easy to reproduce, robust, and safe to handle. This makes it an excellent tool for research of multi-segment legs in quadruped robots.

One of the most interesting sessions I attended at Devoted and Disgruntled last month was a provocation by Tassos Stevens of Coney: "Can technology in theatre ever be playful?" Inevitably, National Theatre Live came up, but the focus was slightly different to the usual debates about streamed theatre's effect on the theatrical ecology. Instead, we spoke about its effect on an audience and the way in which it effects the theatrical experience.
All of these thoughts were bubbling through my head when I sat down to watch the Donmar's Coriolanus at my local theatre last week. It was my eighth NT:Live experience, only three of those visits had been to streams of productions I hadn't yet seen Continue reading NT:Live and Kicking

Hertha Berlin fans riot after defeat to Nurnberg
Violent scenes erupted at the final whistle of the Bundesliga match between Hertha and Nurnberg on Saturday, as the home fans angrily moved against their own team after yet another defeat left the Berliners starring relegation in the face.
After losing 2-1 and remaining rock-bottom of the division, around 100 fans stormed the pitch, some of them armed, as they attempted to attack players and coach Friedhelm Funkel. In response, the players fled the scene and race down the tunnel as the thugs trashed the dugouts before police intervened to restore some order.
Footage of the violence in Berlin can be seen here.

I thought that this Burda top would be a nice quick garment to knock together, but appearances can be deceiving!
While it is a very basic pattern, with only a CB seam, arm and neck binding and a cute back panel detail, it is essentially a tube and therein lies the problem, because I am not!
I cut a size 40 which generally speaking was a good fit, except for some serious underarm gaping. And as there is no side seam, this presents a bit of a dilemma in terms of how to adjust the pattern.
Here is the original pattern.
What I needed to do was take in the underarm, but without altering the hip too much, so how to go about it?
There were a couple of options:
1. Slash through the pattern where the side seam would be ( Burda very kindly included a notch to indicate this, thank you!) and close out the extra under the arm (in my case I needed to take it in by 4cm under each arm), and widen the hip slightly.
2. As above but pivot the dart into the gathered section of the back so as not to alter the hip width.
The trouble with these 2 options is that the CB is thrown off grain, which in a plain fabric is not too much of a problem, but would look seriously whacky in a stripe or print.
3. Overlap the side seam evenly from underarm to hip and add extra length to the CB back panel to maintain the hip width.
4. Or just whack in a side seam to create some shape from underarm to hip.
After mucking around for far too long with the pattern (and taking dodgy photos of the pattern pieces on my unwashed floor) I came to the conclusion that such a simple pattern shouldn't need so much major surgery. So I decided to just sew an underarm dart.
It's not pretty, and it kind of defeats the purpose of the original pattern but it fits, and I will most likely wear this style of top under layers, as the world doesn't need to see my underarms jiggling around these days (still photography is allowed, it's amazing what a bit of teeth clenching and arm flexing can achieve!).
So what about the construction?
The instructions seemed way to complex for a simple tank top, so I ignored them and just whizzed it up on the overlocker, substituting self fabric arm and neck bands for the facings.
The Burda instructions advised to sew the hem first, and then apply the back panel, but I didn't want any visible topstitching in this fabric, so instead I gathered and pinned the back to the panel, keeping the hem allowance free, then turning the allowance up behind the panel and then sewing the top to the panel.
The hem allowance can then be flipped over and you have a nice neat finish.
Because this method secured the hem, and I had a fairly generous allowance (1.5 inches) and the hip fit quite snugly, the hem naturally sits in place without needing any stitching.
I also fused the back panel and this helps it to keep its shape (word of warning, it helps to use stretch fusing, I didn't as I was being stingy, oops frugal, and as a result the hip fits a little more snugly then it probably should!).
Look Mum, the back panel matches perfectly with my jean pockets (on purpose of course)!!
Another gratutious shot of me pretending to have taut underarms.
All in all I am pretty happy with the result. So much so that I made another in my black and white spotty fabric AND it took less than 2 hours AND that's with Miss C 'helping'.
Phew, I think that this has been my longest post ever! Now I had better get back to my real job and pay some attention to that Uni assignment that has been lurking in the background.

Hi Sandra. I really like this style and I've been meaning to make this pattern all summer but never did. Now I'm very glad to read your review which will be very useful when I do get to it. All the trouble you took was worth it because your top looks really great - I love it.ReplyDelete
Hi Sandra - it's me again! I have been enjoying reading your blog and, as a fellow new blogger, have nominated you for the Kreativ Blogger Award - please drop by my blog to collect it, with my best wishes.ReplyDelete

Am I eligible for Social Security Disability?
In order to qualify for SSD you must have worked in a job(s) covered under the Social Security System and paid Social Security taxes. By working and paying taxes, you earn Social Security credits. The number of credits required to qualify for disability depends on your age and how long you have worked. You can check your Social Security Statement to see how many credits you have earned or contact Social Security's toll free number at 800.772.1213 for this information.
Many parents are under the misunderstanding that if they are the custodial parent of a child they can relocate at will and merely have to file documentation alerting the court and other parent of their decision. This is entirely incorrect.
If you are considering adoption as a means to create or add to your family, you may be aware that the United States Internal Revenue Code allows for an Adoption Tax Credit of up to $12,170.00+ for "qualified adoption expenses" paid or incurred by adoptive parent taxpayers. Please keep in mind that the Code allows for a taxcredit (a dollar for dollar reduction of federal tax) and this is not a mere deduction against taxable income. This is by far the largest tax credit available to individual taxpayers. The Credit was made refundable by law for 2010 and 2011, but is not refundable in 2012- meaning only families with federal income tax liability will benefit from this Credit in 2012. Also of significance is that the Adoption Tax Credit is available per child. The Adoption Tax Credit not only encourages parents to adopt children in need, but it makes adoption affordable for many that would otherwise be unable to complete their families.
Before purchasing a cell phone for an adolescent, parents should consider some potential consequences for both their child and themselves if the cell phone is not used responsibly. The consequences of the behavior below may outweigh the benefit of being able to pull up the internet to resolve a friendly debate.
Although no method is full proof, we thought we would provide some information and tips on how to avoid identity theft. The tips include the following:
During last summer's legislative session the New York State Senate and Assembly passed a bill that will require insurance companies in to include supplementary underinsured/uninsured motorist coverage (SUM) in their policies at the same level as the insured's own liability limits. Although not signed into law by Gov. Cuomo yet, this is an important piece of consumer protection legislation for all insured automobile drivers to understand.
After reading a recent article in the Buffalo News entitled "A brief review of how Social Security disability payments work" I thought I could address some of the issues that in my experience many people face in navigating and understanding the system.
Depending on your own situation, you may be eligible for one or more of the following:
There are three basic estate planning documents that all individuals should consider when making a life plan strategy. The specific content of each document will depend on personal and family circumstances, but, everyone should consider having the following documents in place:
There has been a dramatic increase recently in the number of septic system problems in home sales in Western New York. I believe this is occurring due to the aging of the systems, as well as changes over the years in technology and building department requirements. The houses too, have changed over the years and, for example, a homeowner may have converted a basement or den into a bedroom, or installed a shower in the basement or elsewhere. This may not have been done in connection with a building permit and an inspection from the Town. The septic system may not have been enlarged to accommodate these changes.
There are special rules that apply when suing the City of Buffalo for personal injuries. One of these special rules requires prior written notice of defects before you can successfully bring a claim for personal injury. As with most rules there are some exceptions, including if city workers created the defect or where a 'special use' conferred a benefit to the city.

Not much knitting happening lately...
Having said that, I am making a replacement scarf for my dad. I made him a long green scarf using Rowan Aran Tweed for his birthday in April but he complained that it's too thick and coarse.
It did cross my mind that the texture was like a piece of carpet but I had stayed up a few nights to finish it in time for his birthday so I was not in the clearest frame of mind (I actually had a ring of green around my pointer from knitting with that yarn non-stop)...
Anyway, he refuses to give the scarf back to me unless I make him another one (strange man).
I'm making it from 4 skeins of soft felted wool I got in New Zealand earlier this year, and he has approved the yarn. Hopefully I'll finish it before the Souther Hemisphere winter is out...

Do You Really, Truly Hate Your Office Printer? There's a Bat for That
Workers destroy balky machines in a ritual act of catharsis; 'glass fireworks'
How much did Ryan Shockley hate the printer at his office? Let him count the ways.
It professed to be out of paper when it wasn't. A plume of black smoke would emerge when anyone changed the toner, soiling shirts and pants with ink. When the printer jammed, employees burned their hands when they opened it to extract the offending sheet.

What may be the most public arm of the Saudi Lobby in Washington held it's annual get together at the Ronald Reagan Building this week. It calls itself a National Council and an educational association. But in reality it is a clever out-front p.r. group for the Saudis, the GCC, and the many corporations who cash in on all the money and arms sales.
By Washington standards just a little gathering of little consequence; but even so they did bring a few top level key-note speakers for the cameras to show back in Arabia — the 4-star General commanding Centcom plus one of the most senior Saudi spokesmen, Prince Turki, a regular actually, who got his usual standing ovation.
But listening yesterday to a Saudi cry about refugees, when his country has done so much to create their plight and so little to alleviate; and listening to a Saudi lecture Americans about "one man one vote" when his country…well we all know the realities there; and listening to a Saudis warn the Israelis that they better finally get with the "peace process", when in fact the Saudis are now in an increasingly close behind-the-scenes alliance with the Zionist State; and listening to a Saudi continually berate and chastise and threaten the Iranians for "interfering in the internal affairs of neighboring countries and supporting terrorism"…well enough said.
In some ways little has changed when it comes to NCUSAR, The National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations. In other ways the Saudis as well as the Americans, the Middle East as well as our world, have changed a great deal. Here are a few flashbacks to previous gatherings of the National Council:
P.S. No mention at the conference of JASTA or references to the very young, brash, irreverent Saudi King (actually his official title is still Crown Prince), nor of the aging King's first ever recent Royal visit to Putin and how his Kingly deplaning escalator broke down with him on board upon his arrival in Moscow (wink).

My wonderful friend Beth firstname.lastname@example.com sent me some samples of the hair care system Monat.
In all honesty, I haven't had hair for so long, I wasn't expecting much. But I have to say that this hair system is the only one that I have noticed about one cm growth in a week. My hair which hardly came back after chemo is thicker and fluffier.
I sampled some of the different products from shampoo to conditioner. The ones that worked best for me were the
- leave in conditioner
- replenish conditioner
With the leave-in conditioner, my hair just looked better and had volume! For the first time in eight years!!
The replenish conditioner, sort of shrunk the hair. I know that sounds strange but it usually it just matted and dreadlocked. But the conditioner sort of shortened the hair so that it looked fuller. I wish I knew how to explain it more clearly. But I am very happy and if you like me have alopecia. Or alopecia induced by chemo - I would definitely get some samples from Beth email@example.com or ask her to help you.

You know how you regularly get people with metal detectors finding hoards of Bronze Age or Roman coins buried in fields?
I was just wondering – does the fact they're always buried in fields mean that people back then trusted the banks even less than we do now?
Couples will no longer be allowed to get married naked in naturist weddings under a rethink of marriage law ordered by ministers. It's a shame, because it sounds like a good idea and here are a couple of reasons why.
The Best Man will have to keep hold of the rings because he won't have any pockets to store them in, which means there's less chance of him forgetting where he's put them.
And you can use the money you've saved on wedding clothes to pay the fine you'll probably get after the police have arrested you for public indecency when you head off on honeymoon naked as well!
Ryanair says it plans to test streaming movies to passengers' tablets and smartphones.
But I can't help feeling there's something deeply ironic about Ryanair trying to squeeze a large screen format into a really small screen.
I also wonder if Ryanair used to show DVDs because if they did, I'm assuming there were no extras on them!
I went to buy a birthday card to give to someone the other day and it came with one of those card protectors.
Which is basically a bit of card ,with the words 'card protector' written on it, that you put inside the envelope to stop the card you're sending getting damaged in the post.
If the card protector is just a bit of card, like the actual card is, then do you need to send it with a card protector as well?
It seems like a really bad idea, because if your friend gets the card with a card protector through the post, then it feels like there's something really substantial inside the envelope, like tickets or a voucher.

The final deity to join the Citarian pantheon was none other than Gori Sensullu's own son, Kaelariel. Genetically altered to appear as a guardian demon, Kaelariel was the savior prophesied to destroy Seril, end the wars between the rir and the serilian demons, and bring peace to the world of Citaria.
Born son of Queen Deanna Jir'tana in the terra-bengal city of SouthWind, Kaelariel was raised by his mother, her court, and the archmage Percival Cintalas. Despite his appearance, his unique nature quickly became obvious to the terra-bengal people, who did all they could to keep his birth and existence a secret. They were successful until he reached the age of fourteen when, at the advice of Gori Sensullu, he was sent to the underworld city of Anthraxis. Anthraxis was a completely neutral ground even in the world of demons, so it was deemed that Kaelariel would be safe finishing his maturing there.
Kaelariel was raised among the humans of Anthraxis' Mortal Quarter, most specifically by an aging monk named Li Huang. It was from this mentor that Kaelariel learned to control his temper, to more properly respect his elders and even those he didn't care for, and to channel the rage that came with his serilian demon blood into a controlled but fierce fighting style.
During his time in Anthraxis, Kaelariel also befriended and spent a lot of time with Craell Nall Chinchala, one of the many sons of the demon king Celigus Chinchala. The two had quite a penchant for getting into trouble of all kinds, and for a time, Kaelariel fell away from the teachings of not just his family, but the humans who had helped raise him since arriving in Anthraxis. It was during his time with Craell that Kaelariel killed three people in a drunken rage, something he still regrets to this day.
Eventually, Kaelariel accompanied Craell back to his father's realm of Sansrigar, and the young deity spent considerable time with Celigus Chinchala and his court. The demon king, too, had a hand in raising Kaelariel to the age of majority, and though Celigus' teachings were more egocentric, Kaelariel took a lot from the lessons in the areas of tactics, negotiating, and running a household.
Kaelariel returned to Citaria at the age of twenty-one, and thanks to his appearance and the fact that his divine heritage was still a closely-kept secret, he was able to challenge for lordship over the serilian demons. Kaelariel brutally killed Gaelix the Shadowborn and, despite Seril's reservations about trusting him, took command over the serilian demons under the Devil Queen. With his divine heritage a secret, even the other deities of the pantheon had no idea who and what they were dealing with, and this led to very strained relations between the young Kaelariel and his father's subordinate deities.
That changed, however, with the advent of the Fifth Demon War. Using a truce between her forces and the mortals to drive out the Bah'Qitur Invasion, Seril turned on her "tentative allies" and attempted once more to capture Askies Island for herself. With the trust he'd already garnered specifically with the Elite and Guardian demons, Kaelariel turned much of Seril's army against her, and helped the mortal forces win a decisive victory. Beyond the victory itself, the guardian demon Serenjols also slew Seril's son, Urukh, crippling her military capabilities.
Kaelariel is well-remembered for the speech he gave at the end of the Fifth Demon War, wherein he pledged peace between "his people" – the serilian demons – and his father's people, the rir. Only then did his lineage become common knowledge, and he was granted the mantle of god of freedom and death by his father. Kaelariel took his place among the pantheon, and though many of his fellow deities remained a little suspicious of him, his status as the prince of the pantheon and lord of the allied serilian demons won him a lot of trust from the rest.
Kaelariel's final part in the prophecy was leading the Light Forces in the Apocalypse, and slaying Seril at its conclusion. His ties with Celigus Chinchala, largely regarded as the most brilliant tactical mind across the cosmos, served the Light Forces well, as the demon king served as their tactician and second-in-command throughout the War. Kaelariel's ties with Celigus and other demon kings still leave lingering doubt in some peoples' minds, but most are assured of his purity, especially in the wake of his father's death.
Kaelariel now serves as the head of the pantheon, and continues to rule the spheres of freedom and death. He had a son named Kris Jir'tana, who also served as a brigadier general during the Apocalypse and has been granted the nickname "The Warlord." There is much more to Kaelariel's story, but that's a tale for another time…

MARGATE -- Within two hours of each other, two Margate homes sustained fire damage.
The first, on 7200 block of Northwest Fourth Place, caught fire about 12:20 p.m. on March 14 when sparks from a plumber's torch fell inside a bathroom wall as the plumber was repairing a shower fixture. The fire caused about $15,000 damage, according to a police report on the incident.
The second fire started about 2:10 p.m. at an apartment in the 5600 block of Southwest Second Court. The resident was moving and had lit candles because the electricity had been turned off. While the resident was taking belongings to a new residence, a candle apparently caught a box of clothes on fire, according to a police report.
The resident was treated for smoke inhalation. Damage to the apartment was estimated at $5,000, according to police.

Story by Justice Nawman, Lindsay Long, and Warner Otto, photo by Justice Nawman
Palmetto's Finest is an award given to the most supreme high school in the state of South Carolina by the South Carolina Association of School Administrators. Dutch Fork High School is up for the award, which makes it a stressful time for both teachers and students.
"First, we do an application [that is read] by a group of administrators, and if it's good enough then we get a visit. The first visit, you get a 2 week time frame and they come one day and visit classrooms and talk to teachers and students," principal Dr. Gregory Owings said. "We have the school look pretty, and the second visit is between us and Seneca. They'll visit us both and pick the one that's the best. Everyone will be on their best behavior and the school will look nice. They'll look at academic performance and extra curricular activities and sports."
Since academics are a crucial component of this award, teachers are cracking down on the amount of work students do, with some administering any tests a week in advance, so that they may focus on their coursework when the observers come.
"We've been doing a lot of studying because we've been having a lot of tests this week so we don't have them next week when [the] Palmetto's Finest people are here. Our teachers are going over what we should do when they come into class, but they're mostly just preparing us for the tests," freshman Eden Turek said.
While this is a chaotic time, many students are optimistic and agree that this observation is a way to showcase Dutch Fork's abilities as a school, providing validation for everyone involved.
"I'm feeling good about it, because they can see what we do better at and what we can work on," sophomore Elizabeth McCants-Baker said.
To junior Katherine Baxley, the arrival of Palmetto's Finest is just another school day, but is still knowledgeable that that this award, if won, could benefit Dutch Fork and its academic future.
"I am okay with it, because they are just people and it doesn't affect me personally but I know it is really good for the school," Katherine said.
In the end, it all comes down to preparation and consistency. Dutch Fork is a superior school, both in athletics and academics, and according to senior Kaitlyn Dowd-Howell, this superiority is one that should be recognized.
"I don't think we should be more prepared, because we're already the best school in the district," Kaitlyn said.
