Henrico Humane Society Receives Gift from Beath Foundation
Henrico Citizen Staff Reports 11/19/10
The Henrico Humane Society (HHS) announced today that it had received a grant from the Jessica Beath Foundation. The foundation also agreed to a matching gift program for donations made to Henrico Humane Society through February 2011. The Beath Foundation's mission is to provide for general charitable purposes, most notably the care and rescue of animals.
"This generous grant from The Beath Foundation will allow us to help animals in desperate need of expensive medical care which we may not have otherwise been able to afford," said Courtney Morano, Henrico Humane Society president. "We are grateful for their support of our organization, which operates solely on donations, volunteers and fundraising."
As a result of the grant, HHS recently was able to save Beatrice, a puppy rescued from an animal shelter and diagnosed with persistent aortic arch condition, which requires open heart surgery. Dr. Lori Pasternak, with Helping Hands Veterinary Surgical and Dental Care, performed the surgery which saved Beatrice's life. The society intends to provide medical care for many other animals as a result of the new grant.
Jessica Beath started The Beath Foundation in 1991 to honor the memory of her husband Dr. Thomas Beath, her parents Mr. and Mrs. William Thomas and her sisters Annie Thomson and Beatrice Stockdale. She died this year at the age of 106.

I'm having trouble getting the category name and description to show up in my theme. The page is here: http://shoptrs.vineandgrain.com/category/accessories
I want it to show up for the category page and any single pages, so I thought I could do it with is_single and the code I found on wordpress's support site, but I'm obviously doing something wrong. It's outside the loop, but I don't think that makes a difference.
I'm trying to use the following code:

<?php if (is_single('')) { ?>

Any ideas that could help me? Thanks in advance

Gluten free menu (but not the same as the one that was shown on line). They also offered takeout. I strongly recommend the flouless chocolate cake. It was much lighter and fluffier than flour less cakes that I've had before.
Nice gf menu, had the BBQ shrimp which was delicious and grilled salmon salad. Dessert options too. Highly recommend
Loved this restaurant. They now have a GF menu. We arrived during Happy Hour so house wine $3.00/ glass and oysters on the half shell $0.50! We asked about crawfish. It was our lucky day because it was the first catch of the season so they brought us samples and taught us how to eat them. They were well with going back for.
I absolutely love this restaurant. Just ask for the gluten free menu at the hostess stand. There are lots of options and they are all delicious. My favorites are the chargrilled oysters, risotto, shrimp brochettes, and BBQ shrimp. Great dessert options too!
Fabulous meal with several GF options (had the bacon wrapped andouille shrimp) including flourless chocolate cake for dessert.
Great food, server could have been nicer. Seemed put off by my questions.
The grilled fish was delicious!
The food is fantastic, and they had an incredible gluten free menu. Our waiter was extremely knowledgable. I will go back every chance I get!
The food was delicious. The service was great. The gluten free menu has good variety. We went there twice on our trip and had great experiences both times.
Very helpful staff! Our server was so helpful and did not hesitate to forward all of our questions to the chef. We had the raw and the charbroiled oysters and they were both delicious! I also had the redfish with lemon thyme beurre blanc and it was delicious! We will definitely be back for the crawfish boil!
Love the flourless chocolate cake! The grilled shrimp is good. Also has a gluten free menu.
Excellent food. Servers always check ingredients with chef, who was aware that soy sauce contained gluten even without my prompting. Always willing to alter food preparations to be gluten free. Pricey for dinner, but entrees can be split (for free), and lunch menu is a good bargain.

Day 21 Theme: Strength and Encouragement
If God be for us, who can be against us?– Romans 8:31
It is comforting and encouraging to read that God is for us, but there are some people that God is against. We are told in the Bible that He is against the wicked, the proud and the false prophet. God is against those, in other words, who walk contrary to His Word and who reject His Son.
Conversely, there are certainly those who are against God and His people. Satan is their great adversary and the world under his influence is against the true followers of Jesus Christ. We know from the closing chapters of the Bible that these enemies will rage against the kingdom of God until the very end of time.
But as we are reminded by Paul, though many may oppose, none can prevail against those who are the people of God. God is for them. He has taken sides and He is on the side of those who fear Him and trust in His Son Jesus Christ.
God the Father is for His people because He has chosen them, the Son is for them because He has redeemed them with His own blood, the Holy Spirit is for them because He calls them irresistibly to Himself by faith.
If God Himself is for us, who, indeed, can successfully oppose us? Dear believer, if omnipotence fights for you this day, none can overcome you; in fact, none can truly even harm you. Walk in the assurance of that truth.

By Len Lazarick
State employees last Wednesday ratified a new one-year contract that provided 2% raises, regular step increases, health premium holidays and other financial benefits they had been denied in the lean years of the Great Recession.
Two days later, the legislature's budget staff recommended rolling back about half the negotiated increases, moves that took the largest state union by surprise, calling them "alarming" and "disturbing."
"We find this budget analysis almost shocking," Sue Esty, legislative affairs director for Council 3 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, told the House Appropriations Committee Friday.
O'Malley Budget Secretary Eloise Foster urged the committee to reject the recommendations and live up to the collective bargaining agreement the administration had negotiated.
Maryland's legislature is only allowed to cut the governor's budget, so it is routine for its staff to focus on spending cuts.
Revenue write down
But according to several senators on the Senate Budget and Taxation Committee, Warren Deschenaux, the legislature's chief budget analyst, has warned them that the official revenue estimates due next week are likely to see a write down of $100 million to $200 million. In particular, the sales tax revenues from December shopping were lower than projected.
This means the state will have even less money to spend than planned in Gov. Martin O'Malley's $39 billion budget. He had provided a minuscule surplus of only $30 million, along with the continuation of other money-shifting gimmicks that have helped balance the budget in past years.
As part of that search for $150 million to $200 million in budget cuts, the Department of Legislative Services analysis recommended cutting in a half the proposed 2% cost-of-living increase, but beginning it six months earlier. This would lower base salaries in the following budget year.
DLS also recommended delaying step increases by three months, and eliminating two of four "holidays" for health insurance premiums.
The premium holidays, which increase net pay, were based on reductions in health care costs that employees had gained by use of wellness programs, higher co-pays for services and reduced utilization of hospital emergency rooms.
Already fighting pension cut
AFSCME and the teachers union were already fighting Gov. O'Malley's proposed permanent $100 million cut in funding for their pension systems. In 2011, an additional $300 million contribution had been promised based on the savings produced by pension reform legislation that increased salary contributions from 5% to 7% of pay and reduced future benefits.
"State employees are driving the savings for health insurance and pensions," Esty said. "But instead of being plowed back into" reducing the liabilities for retirements and other post-employment benefits, particularly health insurance, "they are being used to balance the budget."
The surplus in the health insurance fund is the "money that was saved by employee behavior," and should be used to reduce their premiums, not to balance the general fund, Esty said.
The proposed cuts in the ratified contract were "terrible for morale," Esty said. This is especially true for recently hired employees who were expecting regular raises, merit increments and a match of deferred compensation, but instead got none of those things as well as temporary pay cuts through unpaid furloughs. The chart below shows the history of pay hikes, increments and other compensation over the past decade.

John Gets Help from Some Buddies
John Rich brought in some heavy hitters for the shoot of his new video for "Shuttin' Detroit Down."
As he prepares for Tuesday's release of his solo album, Son Of a Preacher Man, John's also finalizing the video for his current single, "Shuttin' Detroit Down." He enlisted the aid of some very strong acting talent to help him on the project—namely Oscar-nominated actor Mickey Rourke and country music legend Kris Kristofferson. John describes the duo as "two of the all-time great American artists in what they do. . . . It is a humbling experience working with these guys. I am way out of my league."

Like I said, Chuck spoke very fast. I actually had him to slow down and repeat. Once, I wrapped my head around what he was offering me ($2400 x 12 weeks or 1 BR rooms=$28,800 ), I smelled a scam.
Chuck did know how the resort worked though. He was right when he explained that it had all 1BR + 1BTH rooms. He insisted I had a 2BR time share and that I had 2 weeks and 1 banked week. He also said I had 3 floating weeks. Therefore, he said a 2BR for 6 weeks was equal to a 1BR for 12 weeks and his company was willing to pay me $2400 per week for 12 weeks or (12) 1BR rooms.
I actually stopped at this point and asked him who his company was and how he came to call me. I was unclear if he was with the property or the company I bought the time share with or what. At this point he assured me I was a current client of Elite Travel Services. I said I wasn't sure but at this point I was certain I wasn't. I just wanted to find out where this process was leading.
Chuck said, "contracts... never get to his desk unless you are a current client of Elite...and that a Mr. Jackson or Mr. Anderson would call me in the next morning with answers."
"I'll get to the bottom of this." Chuck said valiantly LOL.
Sure enough Mr. Jackson called me the next day confirming that "I" wanted to get my enrollment number." This is when the bait and switch happened. It turns out I wasn't enrolled after all. They had my information because I had done a "Test Ad" through a "Mr. Rivera..." he went on. Mr. Jackson even took the time to read through fakeass paperwork about this "Test Ad" I had run. Along the way, he then tried to feel me out by throwing out dollar amounts for the enrollment. $6000, $4800, etc...I didn't respond at all. Mr. Jackson said since they already had the reservation (remember the $28,800 they were going to pay me for my time share weeks/rooms), he wanted to see what he could do about this standard marketing fee. I let him find out whatever he wanted but I knew what was coming. They wanted me to pay the $4800 fee and get it out of the way. By the time they were done with their predatory game, they were tactfully suggesting they were just trying to help me.
Beware of this tactic!!

2010 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab SLT 4dr Extended Cab 4WD 6.5 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 6A)
Just turned 36k on my MY10.I've the SLT, aluminum 5.3 engine, external oil cooler, Z71 package.10K of the milage has been done while towing a 12ft enclosed trailer with a sled and gear in the in it.No issues towing but the transmission is clunky.There is squeaking from the doors.The seats could be plusher and have more power settings.I'd like to have the option to be able extend the steering wheel as well.I do not like the hard plastic.I like that the Sierra is not a tank of a truck like the Ford, Dodge and Toyota.Fuel economy is ok but I think it could be better.The edge of my rims seem to have deteriorated and that should not have happened so soon.
I like the aluminum motor and the 5.3 engine is great.
It is more nimble than the competition.
Fuel economy isn't too bad.
Remote start is a great feature.
Auto 4WD is nice too.
I like the USB, phone options.
The heavy duty transmission, rear end etc is what attracted me to the truck (as well as the engine and look of the truck).
I'd like a posher interior.
More comfortable seats with more functionality.
I want the plastic gone.
Extendable steering wheel is important to me.
Sound proofing, tighter build and fewer rattles.
I'd also like GM to deal with rear axle kick out.
This is something that happens over rough roads and even with lots of weight on, it remains a concern.
Smoothing of the transmission is needed.
6 speed if fine but if it is clunky, it is a negative driving experience.
At this point I think GM ought to resolve some of these concerns retroactively.
Some of use paid big money for their product and they should be thankful for it.
We traded in a 2000 Chevy 4X4 ext cab, 5.3 loaded with over 128K trouble free miles. This truck was the obvious replacement. Better looking than the new Chevrolet, now are priced the same with higher resale value. We did not bother with Ford since their warranty and 4 more engines changes showed us instability from within. This truck now has 5000 miles and is up to 16 mpg in town, 20+ mpg hgwy. We got it loaded with leather, buckets etc except sun roof and NAV. The Z-71 4X4 All Terrain package is a bargain. The new 5.3 V8 with the 6 speed automatic ismuch better than the old power train. We had the dealer put in the wheel well liners, Ziebart and more chrome. Look no further, buy one!
mpg, looks, comfort, performance, great paint-fit & finish, leather/heated bucket seats are great. LEER camper shell painted to match = better mpg. BOSE stereo is unbelievable for factory build. our Brother in law with a new Ford super cab f150 4x4 (same color) loves our truck, now questions his decision. our GMC 5.3 V8 beats his Ford 5.4 V8 in all aspects.
don't install import brand tires

2010 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab SLT 4dr Extended Cab 6.5 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 6A)
I am one of those horrible people who only review things that are really bad or really good, those truck is definitely the latter. I got the 5.3 extended cab, leather, basically everything. This nicer than most cars I've been in and its as quiet as my wife's Honda Accord. GM has come a long way, the interior no longer feels cheap and flimsy. The sound from the engine when you accelerate sounds like a symphony. If you are considering a truck, I would recommend at least driving one and with all the discounts on the 2010's it was hard to pass up, 10 grand off the sticker. I would buy this truck again in a heartbeat.
The leather seat make it feel like a luxury car. The acceleration is spectacular. Plenty of room for everything.
Heated outside mirrors and seat should be standard at this level. I bought an SLE, unfortunately if you want a deal on a 2010 you have to choose from what's on the lot.
2010 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab SLE 4dr Extended Cab 6.5 ft. SB (4.8L 8cyl 4A)
I owned fords for 12 years this is my first GMC. simply love the truck. however the door handle needs to be moved. Minor details. My left knee lays right up against it.And for someone w/bad knees it can get uncomfortable. it is the smoothest riding truck i have owned. But the door handle gets a low grade.
the smooth ride, hands free phone

India's Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, in close collaboration with BBC Media Action and with the support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, is scaling three of BBC Media Action's maternal and child health mobile services, built on Grameen Foundation's MOTECH platform, nationally across 35 states in the country.
Kilkari, an audio messaging service for pregnant women and mothers; Mobile Kunji, an audio visual job aid for Frontline Health Workers (FLWs), and Mobile Academy, an audio training course for FLWs, will be launched on a national Interactive Voice Response (IVR) platform housed in a government data center in Delhi in 2015. All three services will be toll free. These three services were originally developed as part of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation-supported Ananya Program, a partnership between the Government and NGOs designed to address maternal and child health, nutrition, and diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases, including tuberculosis, in Bihar.

A shipment of urgently-needed emergency medical aid and water purification sachets is being readied for shipment to Mali, to help reduce human suffering amid an escalating crisis in the Sahel region of West Africa.
The devastating food crisis—sparked by drought, high grain prices, and chronic poverty—has affected more than 18 million people in one of the world's most underdeveloped regions. Armed conflict in Mali has worsened the situation, forcing more than 160,000 people to flee to other parts of the region. An estimated 3.7 million people in Mali are considered severely food insecure.
Children under the age of five are especially at risk, with more than one million children in the region – including Mali, Mauritania, Burkina Faso and Niger —facing severe acute malnutrition.
"Acute malnutrition weakens immune systems and greatly increases risk of disease," said Dr. Frank Bia, Medical Director at AmeriCares. "In crowded refugee camps, disease can spread like wildfire. This delivery of antibiotics and other basic medicines will help save lives."
As the numbers of displaced and malnourished continue to rise, countless lives still hang in the balance. Help AmeriCares continue to help people suffering in Mali and throughout the world →
The current emergency response shipment includes:
- Water purification to help 25,000 people: 2.5 million units of Procter & Gamble's Purifier of Water will be delivered to our partner for distribution in camps and communities over a period of 4-6 months. Access to clean water remains a challenge for families living in the drought-ravaged south and remote north of the country. Water treated with the Purifier greatly reduces the risk of diarrheal diseases that can be deadly for children and adults already weakened by malnutrition.
- Medicines to treat 15,000 people: An Emergency Medical Module, including crucial medicines and supplies will help medical teams deliver primary health care to 15,000 sick and injured people. The delivery will make a life-saving difference to thousands of people living in camps and communities where access to basic health care is dangerously scarce.
- 18 million at risk for malnutrition
- 397,000 displaced
- 3.7 million food insecure

the Financial Markets.

THERE is a faddish aspect to America's recent fascination with business scandals. Enron was an amazing tale of hubris, greed, corruption and incompetence. Still, the impact of its collapse would have been far smaller a couple of years earlier, when the stock market was still booming. But just as ''Chicago,'' with its cynical worldview, was overshadowed by cheerier fare in 1975 and a big hit a quarter of a century later, Enron came after investors had lost a lot of money and were eager for someone to blame. It didn't hurt that the company was already a pariah in California, blamed for profiteering in the energy crisis there.
The result was action in Congress and at the Securities and Exchange Commission to make the financial system less prone to abuse. Jeffrey Skilling, the former chief executive, told Congress that he could not have been expected to know if the company's financial statements were phony. ''I am not an accountant,'' he said, over and over again. That may yet get him off the hook legally, but it so outraged the S.E.C. that rules were hurriedly passed requiring top corporate officials to certify financial statements.
Sherron Watkins emerged as the closest thing to a hero in the Enron affair. It was she who complained internally about ridiculous and misleading accounting. Watkins, a midlevel executive who had worked in a number of branches of the company, did not have all the details right, but her fear that ''we will implode in a wave of accounting scandals'' was prescient. In ''Power Failure,'' Watkins collaborates with Mimi Swartz, an executive editor at Texas Monthly, in a fascinating inside look at Enron as it grew. This is really Swartz's book, with Watkins referred to in the third person; the lack of visible sourcing for things Watkins was not in a position to know is sometimes frustrating.
But that does not keep the book from being riveting to a reader who knows that Enron ended in bankruptcy but has no knowledge of what life was like inside an organization that, as the end neared, had taken to referring to itself as ''the World's Greatest Company.'' Enron emerges as a company that valued, almost above anything else, the ability to bury bad news. Bonuses -- sometimes in the millions -- were handed out when deals were signed, based on profits that were forecast. No need to wait around to see if the plans worked. The bonuses were paid anyway. When the deals went bad, they could be hidden through financial sleight of hand, and in any case the people who put them together would be on to new deals and new bonuses. The quickest way to become a star, it appears, was to dream up a new method of making the numbers look good.
There was ample internal cynicism. Enron had ''visions and values'' cubes on display, saying things like ''When we say we will do something, we will do it.'' Andrew Fastow, the chief financial officer who has since been indicted for his role in the scandal, produced his own cube, saying, ''When Enron says it will rip your face off, it will rip your face off.''
The fact remains, however, that Watkins knew Enron was producing, shall we say, odd numbers long before she started to complain about it, although it does not seem to have occurred to her just how rotten the whole company was. When Enron was flying high she worked in its broadband trading operation, which had virtually no revenues save those it invented with some particularly artful accounting tricks, but that was Enron's way of getting into what was then the hot telecommunications business. ''By the end of 2000, Sherron Watkins was pretty discouraged,'' the book reports. ''There was no money coming in to Broadband, but plenty was flying out the door. Thank God, she thought, that the rest of the company was doing so well.'' It wasn't, of course. It would have collapsed sooner or later.
The other casualty of the Enron debacle was Arthur Andersen, the accounting firm whose alumni, including Watkins, filled the financial ranks of Enron and the firm that audited Enron's books. It went out of business after it destroyed Enron-related documents and was convicted of obstruction of justice. ''Final Accounting'' is a combination of inside story and report on Andersen's Enron debacle and subsequent fall. Unfortunately, Barbara Ley Toffler had left Andersen two years before Enron blew up, and she is not an auditor. But she can testify to the dizzying corporate culture, in which getting credit for a client's fee for one's own bonus pool -- and making it as large as possible -- counted for far more than doing a good job for that client.

Intel Will Release 14nm Coffee Lake To Succeed Kaby Lake In 2018
Subject: Processors | July 28, 2016 - 02:47 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: kaby lake, Intel, gt3e, coffee lake, 14nm
Intel will allegedly be releasing another 14nm processor following Kaby Lake (which is itself a 14nm successor to Skylake) in 2018. The new processors are code named "Coffee Lake" and will be released alongside low power runs of 10nm Cannon Lake chips.
Not much information is known about Coffee Lake outside of leaked slides and rumors, but the first processors slated to launch in 2018 will be mainstream mobile chips that will come in U and HQ mobile flavors which are 15W to 28W and 35W to 45W TDP chips respectively. Of course, these processors will be built on a very mature 14nm process with the usual small performance and efficiency gains beyond Skylake and Kaby Lake. The chips should have a better graphics unit, but perhaps more interesting is that the slides suggest that Coffee Lake will be the first architecture where Intel will bring "hexacore" (6 core) processors into mainstream consumer chips! The HQ-class Coffee Lake processors will reportedly come in two, four, and six core variants with Intel GT3e class GPUs. Meanwhile the lower power U-class chips top out at dual cores with GT3e class graphics. This is interesting because Intel has previous held back the six core CPUs for its more expensive and higher margin HEDT and Xeon platforms.
Of course 2018 is also the year for Cannon Lake which would have been the "tock" in Intel's old tick-tock schedule (which is no more) as the chips will move to a smaller process node and then Intel would improve on the 10nm process from there in future architectures. Cannon Lake is supposed to be built on the tiny 10nm node, and it appears that the first chips on this node will be ultra low power versions for laptops and tablets. Occupying the ULV platform's U-class (15W) and Y-class (4.5W), Cannon Lake CPUs will be dual cores with GT2 graphics. These chips should sip power while giving comparable performance to Kaby and Coffee Lake perhaps even matching the performance of the Coffee Lake U processors!

Qualcomm Announces X16 Modem Featuring Gigabit LTE
Subject: Mobile | February 12, 2016 - 04:26 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: X16 modem, qualcomm, mu-mimo, modem, LTE, Gigabit LTE, FinFET, Carrier Aggregation, 14nm
Qualcomm's new X16 LTE Modem is the industry's first Gigabit LTE chipset to be announced, achieving speeds of up to 1 Gbps using 4x Carrier Aggregation. The X16 succeeds the recently announced X12 modem, improving on the X12's 3x Carrier Aggregation and moving from LTE CAT 12 to CAT 16 on the downlink, while retaining CAT 13 on the uplink.
"In order to make a Gigabit Class LTE modem a reality, Qualcomm added a suite of enhancements – built on a foundation of commercially-proven Carrier Aggregation technology. The Snapdragon X16 LTE modem employs sophisticated digital signal processing to pack more bits per transmission with 256-QAM, receives data on four antennas through 4x4 MIMO, and supports for up to 4x Carrier Aggregation — all of which come together to achieve unprecedented download speeds."
Gigabit speeds are only possible if multiple data streams are connected to the device simultaneously, and with the new X16 modem such aggregation is performed using LTE-U and LAA.
(Image via EE Times)
What does all of this mean? Aggregation is a term you'll see a lot as we progress into the next generation of cellular data technology, and with the X16 Qualcomm is emphasizing carrier over link aggregation. Essentially Carrier Aggregation works by combining the carrier LTE data signal (licensed, high transmit power) with a shorter-range, shared spectrum (unlicensed, low transmit power) LTE signal. When the signals are combined at the device (i.e. your smartphone), significantly better throughput is possible with this larger (aggregated) data 'pipe'.
Qualcomm lists the four main options for unlicensed LTE deployment as follows:
- LTE-U: Based on 3GPP Rel. 12, LTE-U targets early mobile operators deployments in USA, Korea and India, with coexistence tests defined by LTE-U forum
- LAA: Defined in 3GPP Rel. 13, LAA (Licensed Assisted Access) targets deployments in Europe, Japan, & beyond.
- LWA: Defined in 3GPP Rel. 13, LWA (LTE - Wi-Fi link aggregation) targets deployments where the operators already has carrier Wi-Fi deployments.
- MulteFire: Broadens the LTE ecosystem to new deployment opportunities by operating solely in unlicensed spectrum without a licensed anchor channel
The X16 is also Qualcomm's first modem to be built on 14nm FinFet process, which Qualcomm says is highly scalable and will enable the company to evolve the modem product line "to address an even wider range of product, all the way down to power-efficient connectivity for IoT devices."
Qualcomm has already begun sampling the X16, and expects the first commercial products in the second half of 2016.

AMD Polaris Architecture Coming Mid-2016
In early December, I was able to spend some time with members of the newly formed Radeon Technologies Group (RTG), which is a revitalized and compartmentalized section of AMD that is taking over all graphics work. During those meetings, I was able to learn quite a bit about the plans for RTG going forward, including changes for AMD FreeSync and implementation of HDR display technology, and their plans for the GPUOpen open-sourced game development platform. Perhaps most intriguing of all: we received some information about the next-generation GPU architecture, targeted for 2016.
Codenamed Polaris, this new architecture will be the 4th generation of GCN (Graphics Core Next), and it will be the first AMD GPU that is built on FinFET process technology. These two changes combined promise to offer the biggest improvement in performance per watt, generation to generation, in AMD's history.
Though the amount of information provided about the Polaris architecture is light, RTG does promise some changes to the 4th iteration of its GCN design. Those include primitive discard acceleration, an improved hardware scheduler, better pre-fetch, increased shader efficiency, and stronger memory compression. We have already discussed in a previous story that the new GPUs will include HDMI 2.0a and DisplayPort 1.3 display interfaces, which offer some impressive new features and bandwidth. From a multimedia perspective, Polaris will be the first GPU to include support for h.265 4K decode and encode acceleration.
This slide shows us quite a few changes, most of which were never discussed specifically that we can report, coming to Polaris. Geometry processing and the memory controller stand out as potentially interesting to me – AMD's Fiji design continues to lag behind NVIDIA's Maxwell in terms of tessellation performance and we would love to see that shift. I am also very curious to see how the memory controller is configured on the entire Polaris lineup of GPUs – we saw the introduction of HBM (high bandwidth memory) with the Fury line of cards.

Samsung adding AMD to their customers?
Subject: General Tech | December 22, 2015 - 02:07 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: amd, Samsung, 14nm, rumour
The talk around the watercooler includes a rumour that AMD may use Samsung to produce at least some of their 14nm chips in the coming year. If true this has been a huge year for Samsung who produce NVIDIA chips as well as recently picking up a contract with Apple to produce some of their A9 SoCs. The rumour still includes GLOBALFOUNDRIES as a source for APUs and GPUs so this would make Samsung a second source for working silicon, which we can hope will alleviate some of AMD's difficulty in maintaining supplies of products. This could also help fund Samsung's development of their 10nm FinFET node which the claim should be in production by the end of 2016. As always, take the rumour for what it is but if you want to learn more about what is being said you can pop over to The Inquirer.
"A report in South Korea's Electronic Times, which cited unknown sources, said that Samsung Electronics will start making new chips for AMD sometime next year."

Apollo Lake is coming next summer
Subject: General Tech | December 1, 2015 - 04:20 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Intel, apollo lake, 14nm, rumours
DigiTimes has heard rumours that Intel will be refreshing their processor lineup with Apollo Lake processors in June and August 2016, with devices powered by the new processors in October. This is rather good news considering how slowly new PC sales have been growing over the past year, it is nice to see that we will still have some new CPUs in the coming year. Details are rather scarce, the 14nm chips will come in dual and quad-core options and use the new Gen9 GPU which will support Ultra HD output. You can expect 6-10W TDP, these are very much mobile oriented chips.
"Seeing the trend, Intel is scheduled to mass produce its next-generation Apollo Lake-based processors in June-August 2016 with related entry-level PC products becoming available in the market in October 2016, according to sources from the upstream supply chain."

Check out the architecture at Skylake and Sunrise Point

By now you have read through Ryan's review of the new i7-6700 and the ASUS Z170-A as well as the related videos and testing, if not we will wait for you to flog yourself in punishment and finish reading the source material. Now that you are ready, take a look at what some of the other sites thought about the new Skylake chip and Sunrise Point chipset. For instance [H]ard|OCP managed to beat Ryan's best overclock, hitting 4.7GHz/3600MHz at 1.32v vCore with some toasty but acceptable CPU temperatures. The full review is worth looking for and if some of the rumours going around are true you should take H's advice, if you think you want one buy it now.
"Today we finally get to share with you our Intel Skylake experiences. As we like to, we are going to focus on Instructions Per Clock / IPC and overclocking this new CPU architecture. We hope to give our readers a definitive answer to whether or not it is time to make the jump to a new desktop PC platform."

The Intel Skylake architecture has been on our radar for quite a long time as Intel's next big step in CPU design. Through leaks and some official information discussed by Intel over the past few months, we know at least a handful of details: DDR4 memory support, 14nm process technology, modest IPC gains and impressive GPU improvements. But the details have remained a mystery on how the "tock" of Skylake on the 14nm process technology will differ from Broadwell and Haswell.
Interestingly, due to some shifts in how Intel is releasing Skylake, we are going to be doing a review today with very little information on the Skylake architecture and design (at least officially). While we are very used to the company releasing new information at the Intel Developer Forum along with the launch of a new product, Intel has instead decided to time the release of the first Skylake products with Gamescom in Cologne, Germany. Parts will go on sale today (August 5th) and we are reviewing a new Intel processor without the background knowledge and details that will be needed to really explain any of the changes or differences in performance that we see. It's an odd move honestly, but it has some great repercussions for the enthusiasts that read PC Perspective: Skylake will launch first as an enthusiast-class product for gamers and DIY builders.
For many of you this won't change anything. If you are curious about the performance of the new Core i7-6700K, power consumption, clock for clock IPC improvements and anything else that is measurable, then you'll get exactly what you want from today's article. If you are a gear-head that is looking for more granular details on how the inner-workings of Skylake function, you'll have to wait a couple of weeks longer - Intel plans to release that information on August 18th during IDF.
So what does the addition of DDR4 memory, full range base clock manipulation and a 4.0 GHz base clock on a brand new 14nm architecture mean for users of current Intel or AMD platforms? Also, is it FINALLY time for users of the Core i7-2600K or older systems to push that upgrade button? (Let's hope so!)

Top Rank Confirm Chavez Jr. Tests Positive For Marijuana
By Rick Reeno
Top Rank, who promote middleweight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., have confirmed to BoxingScene.com that the Mexican star tested positive for marijuana following Saturday's twelve round unanimous decision loss to Sergio Martinez. The fight took place at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.
BoxingScene was provided with the following statement from Top Rank - "Top Rank is reviewing the situation. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. will have the opportunity to explain about the situation to the Nevada State Athletic Commission."
Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer has confirmed to BoxingScene.com's David Greisman that Top Rank's statement accurately represents a conversation he had with the promoter on Tuesday afternoon.
This marks the second time that Chavez tested positive for a banned substance in Nevada. In 2009, he tested positive for Furosemide, a diuretic, after his win over Troy Rowland. The official result was changed to a no-decision. Chavez was fined $10,000 and suspended for seven months. He faces similar punishment with the latest incident.
Martinez (50-2-2, 28KOs) dominated Chavez (46-1-1, 32KOs) for nearly eleven rounds, before Chavez badly hurt Martinez and scored a knockdown in the twelfth. Martinez survived to win a lopsided decision with scores of 118-109, 117-110 and 118-109.

The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World
by Gabriel García Márquez
Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory
The first thing we hear about the village is that it's made up of "twenty-odd wooden houses that had stone courtyards with no flowers […] on the end of a desertlike cape" (3). Now jump to the women's speculations about the drowned man's abilities: "He would have put so much work into his land that springs would have burst forth from among the rocks so that he would have been able to plant flowers on the cliffs" (4). Immediately we've got contrast between the world of the villagers and that of the drowned man. His arrival is like a splash of color against their grey landscape. If the village is dry and colorless, the drowned man brings with him the possibility of lively springs and bright flowers.
And sure enough, this possibility is soon realized. As the women prepare for the drowned man's funeral, they go to get flowers from neighboring villages. They return "with other women who could not believe what they had been told, and those women went back for more flowers when they saw the dead man, and they brought more and more until there were so many flowers and so many people that it was hard to walk about" (12).
At the end of the story, notice the specific details of the villagers dream for a better future:
They were going to paint their house fronts gay colors to make Esteban's memory eternal and they were going to break their backs digging for springs among the stones and planting flowers on the cliffs so that in future years at dawn the passengers on great liners would awaken, suffocated by the smell of gardens on the high seas. (12)
This is a far cry from the "desertlike cape" we first met at the beginning of the story.
The flowers touch on one of the major themes of Márquez's story: the ability of the truly great to inspire others to greatness. What does this have to do with flowers? Check out "What's Up with the Ending?" We'll pull it all together.

Release Date:
October 25, 1990
An extremely skimpy compilation, Bad Music is only 31 minutes long. Still, this dog's breakfast of material, assembled upon the Cramps' departure from @IRS, was the only place for a variety of B-sides and rarities, at least for a long while. The most well-known is "New Kind of Kick," covered later by the the Jesus and Mary Chain. It isn't as out there sonically as that band, but it has plenty of attitude to burn, with Interior getting lyrically rude more than once and Ivy turning in some fierce, screeching guitar. Another winner is the sassy "Drug Train," originally the B-side to "Garbageman," which celebrates debauchery with the expected gusto. Knox gets to show his command for steady but right drumming on this one, while Interior and Ivy go crazy with the usual vim. The usual selection of covers of rockabilly and garage rarities surfaces, most memorably with a ripping redo of rock roll wildman Hasil Adkins' "She Said." The rave-up qualities are brought out in a full-bodied performance, while Interior sounds like he's been either dug up from a grave or a swamp. More semi-hits like "Human Fly" and "Goo Goo Muck" surface as well, making the whole release a fine if overly short overview of the Cramps' vision of the universe. Production at points ventures into the totally primitive -- all the more appropriate for the band in question, admittedly -- giving everything the necessarily rough-and-ready atmosphere for the group's own brand of scummy sleaze. The artwork is notable in its own right, with the fleshless big-haired ghoul on the cover having turned into an icon for the Cramps and gothrockabilly music worldwide. ~ Ned Raggett, Rovi

This is our 5th or 6th pair - Jan 01, 2014
Parent: Natalie Partridge (West Springfield,. MA USA)
My daughter loves these cleats and this is the 5th or 6th pair we have bought. These cleats are well worth the cost. They fit great and she can go right into a new pair without breaking them in. Her heel is narrow and these fit fine with no slipping in the heel. They run a bit small. We order a half size larger than she usually wears. We will be ordering her next pair soon. Why change when you found the perfect cleats?

7 Years of Happy Use - Jul 02, 2013
Parent: Michael (Charlottesville)
My older daughter wore bladed cleats for some time. She experienced a few sprained angles and then tore her MCL and strained her ACL. The orthopedic surgeon inquired about her cleats and then demanded she wear Marcanas or a boot with conical studs. While wearing these cleats she experienced no leg, knee or ankle injuries, thus more time on the pitch allowing for improved play. My younger daughter has now worn them exclusively since she moved into a woman's size. They are durable, comfortable and protect the feet well.

Awesome shoe - Sep 18, 2011
Player: Megan (Pennsylvania)
These shoes are easy to break in, super comfortable and mold well to the foot. I have great ball feel with them and they are light. If you're looking for a shoe made for a women's foot that is comfortable, light and performs well this is it!

The Best Cleat Ever Owned - May 21, 2010
Parent: Kevin (Texas)
My daughter plays select soccer and we purchased this cleat about one year ago. The Diadora Women's Maracana is by far the best soccer cleat she has owned. She has grown to love the touch and feel of this cleat. The kangaroo leather wraps around the front three quaters of the boot with synthetic around the back. The comfort level and fit is superior to these cleats she has owned: Adidas Predator TRX FG Puma V5.09 Nike Mercurial Talaria According to her, none of the above boots match the comfort level of these Diadoras. She has found a soccer cleat that she'll buy again. Here are some additional pluses: - Wear, She has played in these for almost an entire year straight with 3 training sessions per week with games. We have treated the kangaroo leather with Chelsea Leather Food, highly recommend. The cleats have not worn down and still provide great traction. Leather is still in great condition and has not split or separated. With the constant use, the insole padding wore completely away but we replaced with a new sport insole. Shoe feels excellent. - Women's Design with conical studs. There are concerns that bladed cleats increase the chance of ACL injuries in women players. The conical stud design avoids this potential issue. Overall, a superior 5 star soccer cleat that we'll buy again. They are lightweight with a great comfort level and superior ball feel. Daughter will insist on purchasing these same cleats again for the next pair.

Fantastic Fit - Jul 31, 2008
Player: Future WNT Midfielder
These cleats fit extremely well before and after they break in. They have very good heel support. They're also light weight and comfortable to run in. My sister and I grew out of our last pair of these cleats, and chose to purchase them again versus wanting to wear any other cleat.

I proceeded to check my online statements and everytime I went back the balance was higher and higher. It is now up to $101.00. I have not used this card since I initially closed the account in June.
What really upsets me is that in my recent payments it states that my last payment of $16.15 was returned. This interested me so I went to my archived bank statements and I learned that this company never even attempted to collect the money from my account. It took the inital $466.00, but not the small amount of $16.15.
I refuse to pay this company the money they are demanding. I understand it is hurting my credit score, but I refuse to be scammed by something that has sucked so many other consumers in.

I've got a brand new install of WP 3.5.2 on my development PC with no plugins and using the TwentyTwelve theme. So nothing special or different.
I've just installed the plugin OK, but when I try to activate it I get this error.
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Looking at the error log I can see multiple entries (about 72) like this:
WordPress database error. Can't DROP 'ObjectOwner'; check that column/key exists for query ALTER TABLE wp_iprojectweb_projects DROP INDEX ObjectOwner made by do_action('activate_iprojectweb/iprojectweb.php'), call_user_func_array, iProjectWeb::install, iprojectweb_install, referer: http://127.0.0.1/wordpress/wp-admin/plugins.php?error=true&plugin=iprojectweb%2Fiprojectweb.php&_error_nonce=149f161f83
There's a whole bunch of new tables in the database and the db user has full privileges. So anyone know why this plugin won't activate please?

Hi, i would like to write a filter that i can use in my template to remove img tags, any idea?
Depends on where you want to remove the tag from. If it's the content of the posts then use the
the_content filter and a preg_replace or whatever.
~ @kovshenin
i am trying to use this within the loop
<?php remove_filter('the_content', '<img>');?> but it doens't work, am i doing something wrong?
Of course, read more about what filter are and how to use them. You should be doing something similar to this:
add_filter('the_content', 'my_content_filter');
function my_content_filter($content)
$content = preg_replace('#(<[/]?img.*>)#U', '', $content);
return $content;
Haven't tested this regex but it's the first one I found in Google using 'preg_replace img tag'. Anyways, you should be able to get the picture.
~ @kovshenin
superb it works :) thank you
Hi Kovshenin,
Is it possible to do the opposite? So remove all data from The_Content except the IMG??? This way I can get only my images posted on my blog.

Jhonny Gonzalez Aiming To Lay Abner Mares Out Again
WBC featherweight champion Jhonny Gonzalez (55-8, 47KOs) wants to prove to the entire world that his knockout victory over Abner Mares (26-1-1, 14KOs) was not a lucky punch, by granting Mares a rematch in February.
"We will have a rematch so I can prove to the world that my victory was not luck. I'm a great fighter and in February I'll again prove it," Gonzalez promised.
He shocked the world of boxing by defeating Mares by knockout in the first round of a Showtime televised fight to regain the WBC featherweight title on August 24th in Carson, California.
Gonzalez caught Mares cold with one of his feared bombs and the previously undefeated boxer was never able to fully recover.
"Many people were mighty surprised with my victory over Abner, but for me it was no surprise at all," Gonzalez said. "Abner deserves the rematch, as he gave me an opportunity, so it's my obligation to respond in the same way, so that's why we'll have a rematch."
Chapter two of Gonzalez vs. Abner, also carried by Showtime, will take place a day after Valentine's Day, February 15th, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

How stupid is mares camp for not demanding extra drug testing? Any management that doesn't demand full blood testing for a fighter who works with memo is stupid, and is putting there health in jeopardy. I just don't understand why…Comment by Ringlife on 12-21-2013
Mares needs to work on his defense or he's going to get blitz again. You got to get down to get up. I am rooting for Mares in this rematch.Comment by Respect Power on 12-20-2013
Jhonny's the man if he can do it again. Was really happy when won, and I like Mares , but I always love an upset . Looking forward to this !Comment by CJ_Ross on 12-20-2013

Pakistan's NWFP to enact law on violence against women
Colombo, 10 March, (Asiantribune.com): "Small actions can make big changes," said Kashif Azam Chishti, minister for population welfare and women's development, North West Frontier Province of Pakistan adding that the government had taken steps to enact a law on violence against women.
The Minister, who is in Colombo to attend the three-day Change Makers Assembly of the "We Can Campaign" that concluded yesterday, said that the North West Frontier Province (NWFP) government has taken steps to introduce a bill in the Provincial Assembly on violence against women.
"We have laws against domestic violence, but this will be on violence against women. We will soon pass the bill in the Provincial Assembly and send it to the National Assembly. God willing it will be changed into a national law once it is passed by the National Assembly," Mr. Chishti said
"In our province we are supporting such campaigns," said Mr. Chishti. "The motto of our government is to make women healthy and educated in the coming five years."
The government of the NWFP, which borders Afghanistan, has increased the budget for the education department by three folds. "We have made sure that 70 per cent of the education development budget would go to female education. We are distributing free text- books and give stipend to women to encourage them to go to schools. This has increased enrolment of women by 22 per cent," Mr. Chishti said.
"We believe that if a woman gets educated she will be empowered to fight for her rights. Not only for her rights, but also for her children and family's rights. We will have an educated generation in the coming years. That will solve the problems, especially that of violence against women," the Minister said.
"In our province we have changed the trend. We have a male as the minister for women's development. The two women ministers in the cabinet are responsible for parliamentary affairs and human rights," he said. "We have tried a small change and it can make a big difference."
Mr. Chishti said there are very few cases of honor killing in the NWFP. The practice of Karokari, giving away a woman for the family in exchange for pardon, does not exist in the province, he said.
Some 800 change makers from Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Nepal attended the assembly to share their experiences and learn more about the activities and efforts to end violence against women in other countries.
These change makers are women and men, coming from various backgrounds, who actively work in the society at the grass root level to make a change in their own lives and influence others.
Inspired by the deliberations and exchange of ideas at the assembly, change makers said that they were eager to return home and implement new ideas and methods to take the campaign forward.
"It was an excellent experience. I now realize that we are not alone in this campaign, we have so many others in the neighboring countries working on this issue. I was really inspired by Bangladesh's approach towards ending violence against women," said R. Manoharan, a change maker from Sri Lanka.
Anjeela Wasssel from Afghanistan said that on returning back to her country she would develop a strategy to involve everyone including the government to work towards changing the situation of women in Afghanistan. "Violence happens when women do not speak out against it," she said.
We Can Campaign was launched in 2004 and in Sri Lanka it was launched on 24 September 2004. Some 60 organizations are working with the We Can Campaign all across the island. The campaign has mobilized nearly 7,000 change makers so far and aims to have 200,000 in the coming six years.

AT&T Foundry cooks up hot car warning watchdog
A new gadget that warns of potential hot car deaths of babies and pets could cut tragic cases like the Justin Ross Harris indictment last summer, with an AT&T intern already cooking up a prototype. The handiwork of Nancy Dominguez at the carrier's Foundry innovation center, the sensor uses a combination of motion, carbon dioxide, and temperature detection to spot if a dog or a child has been left in a vehicle, figure out whether conditions are getting too hot inside, and then fire out a warning message if things are getting dangerous. If unaddressed, the system can even call in 911.

My blog is (If I Only) Had a Brain at this URL.. I had it up and running, with a few fixes needed, and a bit of odd behavior in plugins, this past Saturday. The host is GoDaddy. com; the type of hosting is Unix.
Hadabrain is conceptualized as a low-traffic blog,a content-management system for occasional long posts. One weird event was that when I listed it with Technorati, it immediately received "one blog with 12 links have linked to your site" and yet apparently it was a self-link within Hadabrain that accounts for that listing.
But, back to the main question. The new blog, Hadabrain, was up and running when I went to bed the day I built it. When I checked it last night, it wasn't there at all. I called GoDaddy.com--it's hosted there on a minimal cost hosting plan. According to Miles, in Technical Support, the difficulty, the reason for the blank screen, is that there is nothing, or almost nothing, in the "index.php" file.
When I view the website source, I get a minimalistic outline of an anonymous html web site, as follows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
When I view WordPress for this installation on my hard drive, I get, for index.php, the following:
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
When I use my ftp client to examine the web site, everything is there, and the index.php file reads as follows:
/* Short and sweet */
define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
Now a little more information. I used the instructions I found in one of the support threads here for GoDaddy installation of WordPress. Now GoDaddy instructs users to set up a minimalistic web site (filling in the source shown in my first example above?). I didn't do that, because the instructional post here didn't suggest it, and, of course, because everything worked, at first; also I didn't do that because I could not conceptualize how a minimum web page had anything to do with a WP install.
A final note: the first and only post on Hadabrain is extremely long--I think the word count is around 10,000.

For me, design is thinking – thinking about the gestalt of the space – thinking about solutions to challenges – thinking about you and your family – how you live. The result of all the thinking is the design solution, which includes the plan of the space, possibly architectural elements, and the selections of furniture, fabric, lighting and art or accessories. I work in a wide range of styles. Style is simply the incarnation of the design solution in a different dress. I believe that beauty can be expressed elegantly in contemporary, traditional or a personal eclectic mix. When you achieve the right balance point then the design is successful. One of my specialties is my project management capabilities, honed over many years of working with corporate clients. Careful management of your project and budget is just as important as a beautiful finished job – it's the quality of the experience along the way. Please feel free to call me for a complimentary consultation about your special space.
