Something of a concept record revolving (no pun intended) around the solar center of our universe, Age of the Sun is the record Doss has been waiting nearly half a decade to unleash. Bereft (well, almost) of the maniacal experimental noodling that was a key component of every Olivias release, Age of the Sun is a meticulously crafted pop album that's as well suited for curling up on a bleak winter night as it is for driving with the top down on a bright summer day. Employing a cast of characters that includes members of Essex Green, The Four Corners and Of Montreal, Doss has created a glimmering musical oasis that owes equal debt to Brian Wilson, Frankie Valli and David Axelrod. Tracks like "Hide in the Light" and "That ole Sun" simply gush with complex vocal harmonies and sunburst melodies, while interlude pieces like "Ultraviolet Orchestra" and "Inside the Nebula" afford Doss the opportunity to indulge his experimental side without sailing too far afield. Age of the Sun's only notable misstep is its 20+ minute closing track, "Le Roi-Soleil", a mind-numbing, time-wasting drone that reeks of artistic excess.
Pompous tomfoolery aside, Age of the Sun is a fine effort from a singer/songwriter who's just begun to spread his metaphorical wings.

Saving money is a nice habit every person should practice. In addition, saving in the piggy bank is a good start but it is better if you have your own savings bank account. In India, there are many state banks you can choose to open a new savings account. One bank that can be a good choice is State Bank of Hyderabad or SBH.
Introduction to State Bank of Hyderabad
SBH is an auxiliary bank of State Bank of India. The bank's main office is located at Gunfoundry Area, Hyderabad, India. It has more than 1200 branches all over the country with about 12,800 employees.
Currently, the chairman of the bank is Shri O.P. Batt and the managing director is Smt Renu Challu.
SBH was founded in 1942 by Mir Osman Ali Khan, the last Nizam of Hyderabad having the name Hyderabad State Bank. In 1956, the bank was renamed State Bank of Hyderabad. It became the first subsidiary bank of State Bank of India when the Subsidiary Banks Act was passed in 1959.
Who can Open an Account at State Bank of Hyderabad?
Any individual , institution, organization, society, or minor 10 years old and above can open a bank account at SBH provided they meet and submit the requirements in applying an account.
Because of "Know Your Customer" policy of all the banks, clients are required to submit the following documents.
1) Three recent passport size pictures
2) Introduction from an existing account holder or person known by the bank (account holder should have minimum six months standing)
3) In order to verify the identity and authenticity of the address, all applicants should provide one or more of each of the following list of documents.
Features and Benefits of SBH
SBH provides benefits to all of its customers like single and joint accounts; free account transfer facility between branches; services such as payments to LIC and house rental at nominal costs; and half-yearly payment interest at 3.5%.
Procedures in Savings Account Application at SBH
Opening a savings account involves some procedures you should go through. Before anything else, the applicant must ready or prepare the basic requirements in starting a new account like money for initial deposit, proof of address, and proof of identity.
When you have the complete documents, you can go to the bank and inform the bank agent that you want to open a new account. You will need to fill up several forms and after that, the bank agent will check and approve your new account as long as there is no problem with your credentials.
SBH is one of the state banks in India under the administration of State Bank of India. It is not hard in applying a savings account at SBH as long as you have complete requirements needed by the bank. If you are looking what are the requirements, you can find the list mentioned in this article.

WEDNESDAY, Sept. 19 (HealthDay News) -- People who stick with
the so-called "DASH diet" achieve significant reductions in blood
pressure, but blacks are less likely than whites to adopt the diet,
researchers have found.
The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet -- which
is rich in healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables and low-fat
dairy items, and low in fats and cholesterol -- has been proven to
help lower blood pressure.
In this study, Duke University Medical Center researchers
examined whether adherence to the DASH diet was associated with
blood pressure changes and what factors predicted who would stay
with the diet.
The study included 144 sedentary, overweight or obese adults who
had hypertension (high blood pressure) and were not taking
blood-pressure lowering medications. They were randomly assigned to
one of three groups: DASH diet alone; DASH diet plus weight-loss
counseling and aerobic exercise; or no change in diet and exercise
After four months, participants in the DASH
diet/counseling/exercise group lost an average of 19 pounds. Weight
remained stable in the other two groups, the investigators
Participants in both DASH diet groups had significant reductions
in blood pressure levels, and those who adhered most closely to the
diet had the largest drops in blood pressure. This suggests that
following the DASH diet lowers blood pressure, independent of
exercise and weight loss.
But the study found that exercise and weight loss in addition to
the DASH diet promoted even greater reductions in blood pressure
and improved other measures of heart health.
The researchers also discovered that blacks were less likely
than whites to adopt the DASH diet. No other factor predicted
whether participants would stick with the diet, according to the
study published online Sept. 19 in the
Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
The findings suggest that altering traditional recipes rather
than eliminating certain foods altogether might improve black
patients' adherence to the DASH diet.
"We need to be aware of cultural differences in dietary preferences in order to help people better adopt a DASH-friendly diet," James Blumenthal, a professor of behavioral medicine, said in a Duke news release. "It is important to take into account traditional food choices and cooking practices when attempting to incorporate more DASH foods into daily meal plans."

DASH diet.

Hey ladies! (Anyone with good fashion sense, really.) I'm piecing together an outfit to wear to my brother's wedding, and am stumped on what color footwear I should aim for. Navy? Black? Two tone to go with the outfit? I'm usually good with this, but since I have blue in the outfit that tends to throw me off, especially when it's not a dark blue. (Also, thinking of a cardigan in case of weather, as it'll be outdoors in the mountains. Dun dun dun…the plot thickens.)
Update: Thanks y'all! I'm going to aim for blue or navy shoes…maybe with a hint of tan on them to go with the outfit (i.e. trim). And a cardigan in flipped colors, with tan dominant. That should pull it together.
Two tone would be very nice (bring a pattern into things). Since it's outside, don't go for spikey heels, stick with...

I am a finish carpenter in Minnesota. All of the builders we work for have switched to mdf trim. Most of the cabinets I install are made of mdf panels. The dust is thick as we are usually in a space where we have to rely on the wind and windows for ventilation.
Since we started working primarily with mdf, I have noticed my lung capacity has changed. My nostrils are always plugged and frequently bleeding, although not severely. I have trouble sleeping, catching a deep breath. I never considered mdf could be at fault until reading some of the comments here. I hope this is not the cause, as I need to keep working in this field for another decade or so. Damn.

Traditional rights protection and advocacy systems in the mental health field have focused primarily on the use of legal processes to protect patients in inpatient settings. This paper describes a study of an advocacy model designed to help frequent users of mental health services adjust more successfully to community living. Clients who were offered advocacy services related to self-identified problems and needs were compared with a control group who were not offered the services. During the study period clients who received the advocacy services were hospitalized significantly fewer days than the control group with no increase in psychiatric symptoms, but the differences between the two groups disappeared after advocacy services were terminated. The authors compare the advocacy intervention to case management and discuss the potential role of advocacy services in mental health systems.

The staff at Dunham's Sports at Packard Plaza in Cudahy was informed in an unscheduled meeting Monday morning that the store will be closing by the end of the month. Unofficially, the reason given was the store had not been meeting expectations.
Some employees have been with the store since it transitioned from being a JC Penney Outlet store 14 years ago.
Dunham's closing will coincide with another store ceasing operations at the same time. Merchandise Outlet announced it was leaving the Plaza a couple of months ago.

Forums Jitter
3D cartesian to polar conversion in jitter
Viewing 5 posts - 1 through 5 (of 5 total)
Dear all. I want to perform cartesian -> polar coordinate conversion in 3D (XYZ -> AED) using jitter but can't find an obvious way to do this. Does anyone have experience of doing this please?
Failing that someone may be able to correct my method of achieving something; I want to create a 3D grid that I can shrink and expand to go from a single start point to surrounding an object. The way I tried was to plot a vector from the start point to the final resting position and scale this vector in order to control the growth of the grid. However, what this is doing is controlling the volume of the dome, and not causing it to expand along a spherical surface (almost like dragging the grid out along an arc-shaped virtual curtain rail). My solution was to work in AED differences and scale those instead but I'm sure there will be a more mathematically efficient way of doing it…
Any help is much appreciated. C
I think you're looking for [cartopol]
As far as I'm aware cartopol only works in 2D (which makes some sense for audio use) unless I'm missing something in jit.op (which is entirely plausible…)
sorry, I didn't read all your post.
You can use the 3dcartopol external from jasch
Great. Thanks for your help Ullrich

Craft Cabin: How to Chalk Your Favorite Commons Images!Posted by Penny in Articles
Sunny weekends are here (or on their way, anyway), and they bring the return of the Indicommons Craft Cabin–fun stuff to do with the images in Flickr Commons. Today, chalk art! It's fun, it's public, and it's not all that hard to get an image that'll bring a smile to passersby–at least until the next rain shower.
1. Start by choosing an image you'd like to chalk. Don't expect to be able to get an exact image–chalk isn't very precise–but look for something fun to spend time with. A black and white image is okay–you can add colors as you please. I'm going to start with this one: silent film comedians Billy Quirk and Josie Sadler, from the New York Public Library uploads:
2. Now use tracing paper to make a sketch of the image's main elements, and draw a grid over the image:
3. Draw the grid on the sidewalk (sufficiently multiplied for a larger space) with chalk, and sketch in the major elements according to your diagram:
4. Color in large areas with fat "sidewalk chalk" to get a nice base layer down:
5. Then go back in and add details and shading and fine-tune the colors with denser chalk pastels:
That's it! Chalk art can take a while–this was about 150 minutes from start to finish–but it's fun to be outside and creating. What Flickr Commons image will you chalk?

Wedding Wonderland Cake Shop
They did a FANTASTIC job on our cake! We ordered a Mad Hatter, 5 tiered, multi-flavored cake. They only use butter cream icing, and did fantastic decorating our cake to match colors and requests of designs. They have a large variety of cake flavors and fillings. They have been around for 25+ years, and have earned a good reputation in the community. They were easy to work with and had a very reasonable price. For a 5 tier Mad Hatter cake that fed 200 people it cost $2.75 per slice.

Spa WingHaven
Ive been using Cassie as my stylist for YEARS! We did 2 trials (up do and down). The spa can help you with every thing you may need the day of your wedding, and help you relax. Hair, nails, make-up, facials, botox, you name it you got it! A little pricey, but after youve had 1 glass of wine you will forget about the bill.

Sheraton Maui
PARADISE.Maui is beautiful with so much to do, and see. You can relax, or take an adventure. There are so many things to see on this island you will need to be there for 1 month. The Sheraton takes care of your every need. They have snorkeling available at the beach right out your hotel room. The hotel pool is huge with plenty of room to sun/swim. There are free classes daily at the Resort, hula/snorkeling/lei making. Restaurants on the resort were a little expensive, but the WHOLE experience is worth it. JET LAG on the way back if you take the red eye.

Savvi Formalwear
They did not give a lot of info about how to return the tux. They are VERY busy, and you have to talk them down for a LOW cost. A little difficult to work with, and did not want to help when we received a wrong size. They basically let you pick out whatever you want and do not give suggestions. They ALWAYS send out great deals to get your business, and most of the time it is worth it. (free plane trips/50% off invites)

Affordable Limousine Service
Not very helpful choosing transportation for my size wedding party. The limo we chose said it seated 22 people and we could BARELY squeeze in 14! The limo was HOT and cramped. It was difficult to get into. I would definitely recommend transportation you can walk up onto. Such as a shuttle bus, or party bus, it was very hard to get in/out and HOT because of the limited room. Also it was a little pricey for the quality of the limo Navigator.

The Wedding Gallery
Alterations done by Nagwa (store owner). She carried a large selection of bridal gowns, and bridesmaid gowns, mostly Alfred Angelo, Maggie Sottero. Wedding gowns are available to purchase off the rack, or to order in your size/color. She carries regular, womens, and plus sized dresses. Dresses arrive QUICK, and alterations took as little as 1 day. She can also design and make a dress from ANY material. Very personable and LOVES what she does.

Chocolate Cafe & Coffee House
Bridal Shower Location: Cute little caf! We were able to rent out the store on a Sunday, when they are not typically open. We had the entire place to ourselves. Very cute, and the staff was nice and personable. GOOD PRICE (under $300) for the store, lunch, and drinks. Lunch included sandwiches and wraps (turkey/chicken salad/veggie/chicken ceaser), salad, chocolate dipped fortune cookies, water, and tea. The bride receives a mini cake of various flavors. You are able to bring in your own extras; we did cupcakes, and decorate however you would like. The staff at the caf sets up and cleans up.

Dardenne Presbyterian Church
BEAUTIFUL church! Staff was pretty good to work with. We were not members and every time we would go back to pick up something or meet some one to discuss something about our wedding they would forget that they had met us. It was pricey and they had stipulations (photographer could not enter church further than 6th pew from the back). We had a wedding coordinator to work with and she always responded to questions in a timely manner. We were required to complete 4-6 pre-marital counseling sessions, paid for through our medical insurance, or private pay.

Although I have seen some pretty bad DJs from Complete Music, I called and requested an outgoing DJ. DJ Dave was fantastic! He kept the party going all night long. He even made the bride and groom sit down so the wedding party dance for them. He did not hassle guests trying to get song requests, and used props to keep the kids entertained. Definitely request DJ DAVE!

Hearts and Roses Florist
They were a little difficult to work with. They did not give a contract to sign, or tell me the price of my flowers, they just told me that they would work with my budget, and use my flower ideas to create something I would love. I had to trust them to make exactly what I wanted. They did a mock up of my wedding flowers to show me at a wedding show they attended. From that trial I was able to change what I wanted and the day of my wedding the flowers arrived and they were SPECTACULAR! I was highly impressed by what they had put together for my bouquet. Their price is extremely reasonable. For $2000 I got a bridal bouquet, 3 bridesmaids bouquets, 2 mothers bouquets, 12 corsages, and 25 centerpieces. Very nice fresh flowers, would defiantly recommend them if you want some one else in charge of being creative with your flowers.

Huge selection of invitations and design-your-owns available to choose from. A little overwhelming, but the staff was very helpful. It took a little while to get a invitation preview, and for the order to come in, so order well in advance! My invitations turned out beautiful! They will even put them together, address them, and send them out for an extra fee.

Tom Paule Photography
Very reasonable price. One guy (Tom) who works out of his home. He LOVES photography and that shows in his pictures. He is very creative with albums, great to work with. A little slow at getting back to you after the wedding. He does a lot of wedding/aerial photoshoots, so he is busy a lot.
Services used: Photography
Old Hickory Golf Club
BEAUTIFUL location! Very secluded and quiet, perfect scenery. Pretty expensive, you pay for every single extra thing you want, and they do not budge on their prices. Staff was easy to work with but not very helpful the day of the wedding. They changed things around on us at the last min, and did not inform us. (Where guests enter) So we had guests roaming around the place and going into the high school reunion next door. The food was FANTASTIC! Wait staff took very good care of us and our guests.
Services used: Wedding Venue
Grappa Grill
Rehearsal Dinner: We booked this venue then they changed the menu on us. The food was not very good, but the waitress was AMAZING. She was so nice quick and helpful! We did have the back room, which was very far away from the restroom. I would not recommend this for a rehearsal dinner, Main Street Saint Charles is not far away, and they have a MUCH better selection of rehearsal dinner locations.

Exposure of children to violence on telev ision ca n increase aggressive
behavior, at least in the short term, according to a report by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC).
And while there are constitutional barriers to directly limiting the
distribution of violent television programming or when it may be aired (known
as time channeling), there are legal precedents relating to restrictions on
the broadcast of indecent content that provide possible parallels for
regulating violent television content, the FCC stated.
Moreover, the agency concluded that while there are legal, evidentiary,
analytical, and social science obstacles that need to be overcome in defining
harmful violence, Congress likely has the ability and authority to craft a
sustainable definition.
The report is the result of information provided by APA, the American
Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP), and the AMA, among many
others, in response to a request for public input on the question of whether
exposure to violence on television affects children. The FCC prepared the
report at the request of members of the House of Representatives who asked the
agency to solicit comment on three essential issues:
"Our analysis... indicates that the current technology 'fix,'
including but not limited to consumer understanding of the technology and
voluntary ratings system, is not effective in protecting children from violent
programming," the FCC report stated. "[W]e believe action should
be taken to address violent programming."
In its recommendations, the FCC listed the following alternatives:
Cable and direct broadcast satellite (DBS) operators could implement a la
carte in a variety of ways. For example, it could be limited to digital cable
customers who would be permitted to "opt out" of cable
programming, requesting not to receive certain cable channels and having their
package price reduced accordingly ("channel blocking and
"Alternatively, customers could be allowed to 'opt in' to particular
cable programs," the FCC stated. "This is how premium channels are
offered today. In Hong Kong, for example, consumers can select and pay for
only the channels they want. A family that wants to watch sports, movies,
news, and children's programming can receive 15 free channels plus a selection
of 11 additional digital channels including ESPN, HBO, CNN Headline News,
National Geographic, Animal Planet, and Discovery.
"Another option [is] to allow consumers to choose a specific number
of channels from a menu of available programming for a fixed price—for
instance, 10 channels for $20 or 20 channels for $30. Customers then would be
able to receive and pay for only that programming that they are comfortable
bringing into their homes."
APA Trustee and child psychiatrist David Fassler, M.D., called the FCC
report "interesting and helpful," incorporating information,
testimony, and statements from APA, AACAP, and the AMA, among others.
"It provides a good summary of the existing research on the effects
of media violence on young children," Fassler said. "Consistent
with previous reviews, the FCC concludes that watching TV or movies with
violent content can be harmful to children. In particular, the report reviews
the findings of studies demonstrating an increase in aggressive behavior
following exposure to programming that depicts violence.
"The FCC also acknowledges that existing efforts to reduce such
exposure, including the use of voluntary rating systems, have not been
effective," Fassler added. "And finally, the report recommends
specific legislative and regulatory strategies designed to address this issue
in a more meaningful and definitive manner.
"It will be very interesting to see how and if these recommendations
are actually implemented," he said.
Fassler also noted that AACAP has published "Facts for
Families" on children and television violence posted at<www.aacap.org/page.ww?name=Children+And+TV+Violence§ion=Facts+for+Families>.
The FCC report is posted at<http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/FCCviolence.pdf>.▪

Amina Abdallah Araf, who writes the blog A Gay Girl in Damascus where she speaks critically about Syrian politics, was kidnapped on Monday. Her cousin reports:
Earlier today, at approximately 6:00 pm Damascus time, Amina was walking in the area of the Abbasid bus station, near Fares al Khouri Street. She had gone to meet a person involved with the Local Coordinating Committee and was accompanied by a friend.
Amina told the friend that she would go ahead and they were separated. Amina had, apparently, identified the person she was to meet. However, while her companion was still close by, Amina was seized by three men in their early 20's. According to the witness (who does not want her identity known), the men were armed. Amina hit one of them and told the friend to go find her father.
One of the men then put his hand over Amina's mouth and they hustled her into a red Dacia Logan with a window sticker of Basel Assad. The witness did not get the tag number. She promptly went and found Amina's father.
The men are assumed to be members of one of the security services or the Baath Party militia. Amina's present location is unknown and it is unclear if she is in a jail or being held elsewhere in Damascus.
Security forces have attempted to arrest Amina before. She is now one of thousands in Syria who have been detained since the protest movement started.
The Facebook group organized to free Amina is encouraging people to contact the Syrian embassy in your country to demand Amina's release. You can find a form email here and contact information for embassies here.

GALVESTON, Texas (AP) — The Coast Guard says it has reopened the Houston Ship Channel to some traffic after thousands of gallons of oil spilled from a barge this weekend. Officials say the key waterway on the Gulf of Mexico has been cleared enough to allow barges in and out, though cleanup continues. As much as 170,000 gallons of oil spilled into one of the world's busiest waterways for moving oil on Saturday, when a barge carrying the oil collided with a ship. The area is also a key sanctuary for birds and other wildlife. State officials believe most of the oil is moving away from the coast near Houston and into the Gulf of Mexico.
ARLINGTON, Wash. (AP) — Rainy conditions are complicating the search for more victims of the mudslide that swept through a community in Washington state over the weekend. Fourteen people are confirmed dead, but a list of potentially missing people includes 176 names. The landslide flattened about two dozen homes.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — One of the snowiest winters on record in the northeastern United States had officially been over for a few days now -- but that isn't keeping another snowstorm from making its way up the East Coast. The storm today has been dropping flurries on Washington and Philadelphia on its way to Cape Cod, which could see 8 to 10 inches of snow.
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — President Barack Obama says there's no "simple solution" to Russia's annexation of Crimea. And he says he's concerned that Russia will move deeper into Ukraine. Speaking to reporters in the Netherlands after a nuclear security summit, Obama also said that Russia is threatening its neighbors "not out of strength but out of weakness."
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Internal Revenue Service says virtual currencies like bitcoin will be taxed like property — not currency. The IRS says bitcoin is not legal tender. You can't use it to pay your taxes. However, if you receive wages in bitcoin, you have to pay taxes on it just like you would if you got paid in dollars.

As the creator of the Ace Attorney games, Shu Takumi has developed a cult following from gamers who love his complex mysteries, twist-filled cases and often hilarious dialogue. Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is his attempt at trying something else, and the result is a game that feels different to the Ace Attorney games but still manages to retain a similar sense of humour and a complex storyline.
Your character Sissel is lying dead in a junkyard yet despite his death Sissel can still hear his own thoughts even though he's lost his memory and has no idea who he is or what's going on. Suddenly, he hears another voice talking in his head. This is the voice of Ray, who appears to be a ghost trapped in the body of a desk light. Ray explains that not only is Sissel dead, he also has special powers called 'Ghosting' and 'Tricks'.
A Ghost Of A Chance
Ghosting allows Sissel's soul to possess any inanimate object he chooses, as long as he's close enough to hop over to it. Many of the objects Sissel can possess can also be Tricked, meaning he can make them perform an action. Whether it's extending a ladder or turning a light on, Tricking lets Sissel continue to have an impact on the surroundings around him despite having snuffed it.
If Sissel possesses and Tricks a corpse (except his), he has the power to turn back time to four minutes before their death occurred, giving him time to try to change things. Having done this, Sissel is told that his soul can only live for one day, and that by the next morning his consciousness will no longer exist. He decides that before that happens he's going to find out exactly who he is, who shot him and why, so that his soul can rest in peace.
It's an interesting story and one that only continues to get more intriguing as the game progresses through its 18 chapters. You'll encounter many secret identities, wrongful accusations and mysterious secrets long before the final, touching climax. We're absolutely sure you won't see the ending coming either.
In order to get there though, you'll have to solve some fiendish puzzles. The first truly difficult one, involving a mechanical murder machine, will have you scratching your head until you eventually crack it, with pleasing results.
Familiar Feeling
Ghost Trick looks original but this is still an Ace Attorney game at its core. It's split into two types of gameplay: exploration scenes and puzzle scenes. Each time Sissel finds a corpse a puzzle starts where you have to go back to four minutes before they died and try to manipulate events to change history and prevent their death. While these can be incredibly clever, each death scene is essentially the same as the Testimony sections in the Phoenix Wright games: you repeat them over and over again with Sissel speaking out whenever he feels something's been missed. When you finally figure out the one thing the game wants you to do, the puzzle proceeds.
Despite this, it has a visuals style all of its own. The animation is incredible and offers some of the best 'acting' we've seen in a game. This gives personality to each character before they even say a word, and is a huge improvement over Takumi's previous games.
The only real problem is that you'll more or less be doing the same sort of thing over and over for the 10-12 hours it'll take you to finish the game. Have a chat, move around the room, move some things around, find a body, solve a puzzle to save their life, and repeat. If you're a fan of the Ace Attorney games you should already be used to this so it shouldn't be a problem. If you're on the lookout for a puzzle game that has a gripping story, a funny script and a cast of colourful characters that offers something a little different, Ghost Trick is a resounding success.
This is an edited version of a review that appears in the January issue of Official Nintendo Magazine which is on sale now. For more in-depth analysis, screenshots and boxouts buy the magazine here.

|Overview and Specifications
Intel's Core 2 Quad Q9300 has some rather large shoes to fill. This newly shipping, relatively low-cost (~$270) quad-core processor from Intel is a replacement for their long-standing price to performance champ, the Core 2 Quad Q6600. The Q6600 was the first quad-core in Intel's arsenal which was actually affordable, and even today, it remains one of the best values on the market. Not only is the Core 2 Quad Q6600 inexpensive for a quad-core at around $230, but it is extremely overclockable and provides a significant amount of computing power for the dollar. Core 2 Quad Q6600's are still in high-demand – a trend which is likely to continue until Intel physically removes from them from the market.
Like we said, rather large shoes to fill. Luckily, the Core 2 Quad Q9300 processor has some impressive new features under the hood along with a higher clock speed, all at a similar price point as the Q6600. As the Core 2 Quad Q9300 utilizes Intel's new 45nm manufacturing technology (as opposed to 65nm of the Q6600), potential buyers will be expecting the Q9300 to perform better and produce less heat compared to its predecessor – certainly a difficult task but one which we believe Intel can meet. We've already seen what Intel's 45nm manufacturing technology is capable of with its dual-core "Wolfdale" architecture, and if Intel can bring the same benefits to the quad-core market as it did for dual-cores with "Wolfdale", Intel will be in good shape.
The Q9300 is coming to market at an interesting time. Intel has struggled somewhat to get their mainstream 45nm quad-core components on to market, and the Core 2 Quad Q9300 represents Intel's first real attempt at holding on to the low-cost quad-core market against a newly resilient AMD. With AMD's new lineup of quad-core Phenom X4 B3 processors bringing similar features at a lower price point than the Q9300, Intel may have to work a little harder in order to make the Q9300 a success. Let's see if they're up for the challenge.
Intel's Core 2 Quad Q9300 Engineering Sample
This Core 2 Quad processor, as we mentioned before, is based on Intel's 45nm "Yorkfield" architecture, which replaces their 65nm Kentsfield designs that dominated Intel's product lineup throughout 2007 and most of early 2008. The "Yorkfield" architecture is, more or less, two 45nm "Wolfdale" cores connected together into a single chip design. The Core 2 Quad Q9300 is not a native quad-core like AMD's Phenom processor, but rather is two dual-cores connected under a single heat spreader - a multi-chip module. As our tests have shown in the past, this does not affect performance in any real way, and shouldn't be a consideration when thinking of buying one of these chips. However, it is just an interesting aspect to note, from a technology perspective.
The Q9300 is somewhat of an anomaly as it's the only member of the Core 2 Quad 45nm family which has 6 MB of L2 cache (2 x 3 MB cache per dual-core die). All other members of the Core 2 Quad family have a double-sized 12 MB of cache, which will give an estimated 5-10% performance boost at the same clock speed compared to the 6 MB variants. Interestingly enough, with 6 MB of L2 cache, the Q9300 actually has less cache compared to its predecessor (the Q6600), which had 8 MB of L2 cache (2 x 4 MB). However, cache latencies have improved with the new architecture, so performance will not suffer greatly due to this design decision. We do find it strange that Intel is introducing only one model based with 6 MB of cache, although it's certainly possible that Intel will be introducing newer models to fit alongside this chip in the future.
While the Q9300 takes a hit on cache, its architecture is improved just about everywhere else. The Q9300 runs at a clock speed of 2.5 GHz with a front side bus speed of 1333 MHz (compare to the Q6600 at 2.4 GHz @ 1066 MHz FSB). In addition, the Q9300 supports Intel's new SSE 4.1 instruction set, which unlike any other SSE release we've seen in the past, can offer huge performance increases with properly coded applications. The biggest benefactor of this new instruction set have been video encoding applications, which can see massive (30%+) performance gains with SSE 4.1 supported processors.
Even with all these new features under the hood, the Core 2 Quad Q9300 runs on a standard Socket-775 interface and is compatible with the vast majority of Socket-775 motherboards on the market today. Most motherboards require a BIOS update in order to see the proper CPUID's of these new processors, but if your motherboard supports 45nm, 1333 MHz FSB processors, you'll likely be able to run one of these new chips. The Q9300 has a TDP (thermal design power) rating of 95W, which means you likely won't have to replace your existing cooler, either. However, if you buy a retail boxed processor, you'll get one of Intel's (decent) retail cooling systems. For our tests, we'll be using something a little bigger – after all, we want to see what this chip is capable of without cooling being a limitation.
|Power Consumption, Cooling and Overclocking
While a 95W TDP rating doesn't seem extremely power-friendly, this TDP rating is actually quite good in comparison to other quad-core solutions on the market. AMD's new Phenom 9850 chips run in the range of 125W TDP, and Intel's previous generation quad-cores run art 105W+. While the spec sheets will tell you one story, we can say that after testing this chip first hand, it's very friendly in terms of power consumption and heat-production for a quad-core. The Q9300 doesn't need large, copper contraptions with fancy heatpipes and high-speed fans to stay cool (although, they help). The chip is perfectly happy running on fairly basic cooling systems with low-to-moderate speed fans. When idling, our Q9300 chip ran just above room temperature, and only hit temperatures of roughly 125°F / 51°C under sustained processing loads. For a quad-core with this much computing power under the hood, that's pretty impressive.
Of course, this makes for a beautiful segue to talk about overclocking. As the Q9300 runs cool under sustained loads at its stock 2.5 GHz clock rate, it's only natural to think that the chip can run at much higher clock speeds when pushed. Being the low-end model of a new family of processors, people will be looking at this chip to be the new low-cost, high-speed overclocking price/performance champ that the Q6600 once was, and still is. From our tests thus far, the Q9300 does indeed surpass the overclockability of the Q6600, but not by the huge amounts we had originally expected. Here's why.
The Q9300 runs with a 7.5x multiplier at 1333 MHz front side bus, which isn't ideal for overclocking. The multiplier can be adjusted downwards, but it's not incredibly flexible, leaving potential overclockers to rely on high front side bus speeds. Most modern motherboards don't have any trouble hitting 1666 MHz FSB speeds and up, but when you get to the areas of 1800-1900 MHz and up, you really have to rely on the motherboard in order to help you unlock the true potential of this chip. With our tests, with a brand, spanking new XFX nForce 790i SLI motherboard, we were able to coax a maximum clock speed of 3.4 GHz out of our (2.5 GHz stock-clocked) Q9300 sample processor. Early reports from users getting these chips in hand are showing similar results.
In order to reach clock speeds of 3.3 GHz and higher, the Q9300 requires a voltage boost (up to 1.325V) in order to stay happy. Even with high clock speeds and increased voltage levels, our chip ran surprisingly cool throughout our tests. At 3.4 GHz, our chip would run through all of our benchmarks but one (a video encoding benchmark), no matter what voltage or cooling we threw at it. We found the sweet spot of overclocking on the Q9300 to be 3.33 GHz, which was rock solid throughout all of our testing. We've included a set of benchmarks at this overclocked speed in the following pages.
One of the most interesting areas to look at is the Core 2 Quad Q9300's power consumption. With Intel's 45nm process technology, a fairly low clock speed, and a small amount of cache, we would expect power consumption levels to be somewhat low in comparison to other quad-core solutions on the market today. We ran our power consumption numbers with our standard testbed (seen in the following page) with identical hardware configurations. Power consumption levels are tested for the whole system (not just the processors) through a hardware AC wattage meter. Idle numbers are taken at the Windows desktop after the OS has loaded and settled down. Full load meters are taken during our Cinebench R10 test when all four cores are active and running at maximum consumption levels. Power management features (EIST, C1E, Speedstep, PowerNow) were disabled across the board in order to keep consistency.
At first glance, the Core 2 Quad Q9300 looks very good from a power consumption perspective. This 45nm quad-core chip at 2.5 GHz only consumes a scant few more watts compared to Intel's 45nm dual-core E8500 at 3.16 GHz. The Q9300 consumes about 30W less under load compared to the Q6600, despite a higher clock speed, which is also impressive.
What is most impressive is that even when overclocked to 3.3 GHz, the power consumption of this processor is roughly at the same level as a Core 2 Quad Q6600 processor at a stock 2.4 GHz. Even with nearly a 1 GHz clock speed difference there is nearly no difference in power consumption, which is a testament to Intel's Penryn microarchitecture and its advanced manufacturing prowess.
|Testbed and SiSoft Sandra
In terms of CPU arithmetic performance, the Core 2 Quad Q9300 scores pretty well across the board. The chip only showcases a small increase in number-crunching performance compared to the Q6600, but in terms of multimedia performance shows massive gains, due to SSE4.1 instruction support. The new core architecture also allows for increases in overall system memory bandwidth, jumping from 5.4 GB/s with the Q6600 to 6.5 GB/s with the Q9300.
|3DMark06 and Cinebench R10
Our synthetic gaming and rendering tests also showcase the Q9300 in a positive light. Both tests show the new Q9300 besting the Q6600 by substantial margins, and when overclocked, the Q9300 can provide better performance compared to Intel's ~$1,000 QX6850 processor. The overclocked Q9300 numbers in Cinebench are particularly impressive.
|Crysis and Half Life 2
Gaming performance is where we see the Core 2 Quad Q9300 stumble a bit. The Q9300 has a smaller amount of L2 cache compared to the Q6600, but has a slightly higher clock speed to help offset this fact. The end result is that gaming performance is roughly equal to the Q6600 at stock speeds for this new generation model. Frankly, not terribly impressive, but this chip certainly can provide very solid overall gaming performance, especially when overclocked. However, if you're a gamer, we would recommend checking out Intel's latest generation of highly clocked dual-core chips, which perform very well in gaming environments.
|Photoshop CS3
While Photoshop CS3 can be a cache-sensitive application at times, the smaller amount of L2 cache on the Core 2 Quad Q9300 doesn't seem to hold this chip back, as both of our CS3 tests show the Q9300 delivering better stock performance compared to the Q6600. We're certain that with more cache, it could deliver better performance at this clock speed, but its performance is certainly quite good overall. When overclocked, the Q9300 gives some downright amazing Photoshop performance.
|7-Zip and Divx Author
The Q9300 puts up some moderate improvements in our file compression test, but shows a much more dramatic performance leap in our Divx encoding test. The Q9300 encoded our file nearly two minutes faster than the Q6600 processor. However, our lower-clocked quad-core components were still overpowered by Intel's high-speed dual-core components in this particular test.
As our benchmark results and power consumption tests have shown, Intel's Core 2 Quad Q9300 represents a solid upgrade over the Core 2 Quad Q6600, which we've come to know and love. Even though the Q9300 has a decreased cache size and only meager improvements in terms of clock speed, all in all, performance is improved, especially in video encoding tasks, and power consumption and heat production are reduced by substantial margins as well.
We would recommend this chip for those who want an inexpensive and low-power quad-core option for desktop or workstation usage. For gamers, we would recommend opting for a higher-clock speed dual-core model like the Core 2 Duo E8500, which can deliver better stock performance compared to the Q9300 in a gaming environment. If you want quad-core and top-notch gaming performance, we would recommend opting for one of Intel's higher-end quad-core models with a full 12 MB of cache, like the Q9450 and up.
All in all, a quad-core chip which runs cool and is overclockable to over 3.3 GHz with simple air-cooling at a ~$270 price point is a product which is undeniably attractive. With more and more applications being coded with true multi-core support, along with the steep processing requirements of Windows Vista, there is no doubt that these chips will be popular. We wish Intel would have just gone with a solid 12 MB of cache across the board for this new Core 2 Quad lineup, but we certainly won't harp on this point. The Q9300 is an excellent chip and we are hard pressed to find any major fault with it.

RANSON — For students at three Jefferson County schools, the start of the 2012-13 school year means the end of school lunch bills.
The change is part of a federal pilot program made possible by the Healthy, Hunger Free-Kids Act, the school meal reform measure signed into law by President Obama nearly two years ago.
In Jefferson County, T.A. Lowery, Ranson and North Jefferson elementary schools are providing all students — regardless of their family's household income— with lunches and breakfasts at no cost.
The goal is to ensure that all eligible students have at least two healthy meals every school day, explains Rick Goff, the executive director of the Office of Child Nutrition at the stateís Department of Education.
"There are no application forms for the student's family to fill out," Goff said. "Every student in the entire school who wants breakfast, who wants lunch can get it at no cost."
The elimination of paperwork on families will inevitably mean more eligible students will have access to free school meals, Goff said. "That will mean more students will have a good, nutritious breakfast at school and a good, nutritious lunch during the school day. And we believe that will translate into students being able to do their best on schoolwork."
Other students in the Eastern Panhandle also are taking part, including six schools in neighboring Berkeley and three schools in Morgan County. In all, more than 300 schools in high-poverty areas in 34 of West Virginia's 55 counties are offering the free school-wide meals, according to Goff.
A school's eligibility is determined by the number of families in its attendance area that get funds through Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families and other help. Federal officials say that by offering free meals school-wide, the government can ìeliminate entirely the cost and burden to schools of collecting and processing applications."
The program's called the Community Eligibility Option ñ was first tried during the 2011-12 school year in select schools in Illinois, Kentucky and Michigan.
In May, the USDA selected West Virginia, along with the District of Columbia, New York and Ohio for this school year. Federal officials say the option will be offered to schools in all states beginning with the 2014-15 academic year.
By offering free meals school-wide, the government also can help better ensure that low-income young people have the high-nutrition foods that will help them succeed in class, officials say.
Explains Kevin Concannon, an undersecretary with the USDA: "Community eligibility offers innovative strategies to help ensure that children in high-poverty areas have access to the nutrition they need to learn and thrive. We know that if our country is going to win the future, our kids must be healthy and ready to learn so that they can reach their full potential."
In West Virginia, the expanded eligibility program comes at the same time as an added emphasis on serving salads, fresh fruits and vegetables and more made-from-scratch entrees in school cafeterias.
The healthier push is coming from the top. The tie between students' nutritional needs and their achievement levels has long been apparent to Jorea Marple, who became state superintendent of schools in 2011 and who served as principal at Tiskelwah Elementary, a school in one of Kanawha Countyís poorest neighborhoods, in the 1990s.
With West Virginia leading the nation in ill health indicators, including obesity, diabetes and heart disease, Marple has called for the stateís schools to help put students on a healthier path.
"Do we only fix these problems after they happen? Or do we also begin to fix things from the get-go?" she told a writer for 'The Shape We're In' a health series put together earlier this year by The Charleston Gazette.
The Obama administration, too, is working to cut childhood obesity and promote healthy eating and active lifestyles, including through first lady Michelle Obama's 'Letís Move!' initiative.
Health officials have called the changes mandated by the Healthy, Hunger Free-Kids Act 'the most comprehensive change to food in schools in more than a generation.'
Among the Healthy, Hunger Free-Kids Act changes to be introduced in schools include increased access to drinking water in schools, adding to the number of eligible children who get school meal programs, and having the USDA involved in serving meals in more after-school programs in high-risk areas.

Thirteen students at Miller Middle School were sent home last week after a mysterious illness afflicted them. After an investigation by health officials the most likely culprit? Too much sugar and exercise.
San Juan Basin Health Department epidemiologist Joe Fowler said the children had just participated in Open Market Day Thursday, a quarterly event where students purchase food, games and crafts with fake money handed out for good behavior.
They began experiencing stomach aches, nausea and vomiting five minutes after eating. Fowler said food-borne pathogens typically take 30 minutes to cause a reaction.
At least one student admitted faking an illness to get an afternoon off.
