By this time it was about 5 PM and as the agents departed they boarded their boat and went straight to shore.

Steps to reproduce:
1) resize the window to anything smaller than the screen ("restored" state)
2) maximize the window
3) press F11 to get into full screen modus
4) press F11 again to quit full screen modus
=> Result: the window is now as big as in step 2, but in the "restored" state.
Initial size and position (step 1) are lost.
=> Expected result: window should be in the maximized state and should be
restorable to size and position in step 1.
This is a mozilla bug, not a phoenix bug. It's existed in Mozilla for as long as
full-screen has been around. Please do not file bugs on the Phoenix product for
issues that also exist in Mozilla. If it's something we decide to tackle
independently of Mozilla then we'll file the bug. Thanks.
Oops. This is something we decided to tackle independently of Mozilla. It's #37
on our to-do list <http://mozilla.org/projects/phoenix/todo.html>. Sorry.

I believe that this is also being tracked as Mozilla Browser bug 126730 so maybe
we'll get lucky and pick up a fix from them.
Patch checked into Mozilla and awaiting review.
When was a patch checked in into mozilla-code?
I saw only a suggested patch for windows in bug 126730
the author writes in http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126730#c31

There´s also bug 176640 which has a patch for linux, don´t know if it´s ready.
This now works as expected with RH8 and any window manager on linux for which
_NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN is supported. Support for older window managers will be
addressed in bug 179043 (I suspect "full screen" will be not be implemented for
older window managers. See bug 179043 comment 11 ).
I'm wrong. This is not a linux specific problem and it's still a problem. All
recent Firefox builds on Windows and Linux have this problem. If you are in the
restored state (not maximized) with a window that, for example, takes up 1/4th
of your screen, and you hit F11 to go to fullscreen, and then hit f11 to get out
of fullscreen, you are returned to _a_ restored state but not _your_ restored
state. You get a nearly full screen sized restored window and your restored
information (size and position) are forever lost. This is ugly.
Tested windows and linux branch 0.9 builds 2004071509.

Discovered same Bug, well I think its the same bug anyway.
Step 4 was different. Intead of pressing F11 again I clicked the restore button
in fullscreen mode.
=> Result: the window is now in restored state not maximised like it should.
And its position and size have changed from that set in step 1 to mimic a
maximised window.
=> Expected: I would think the window should return to maximised. Or possibly
to restored state with the same size and position as set in step 1(although I
think returning to its last state which in this example is Maximised would be
more appropriate)
Linux and Windows fullscreen modes are different code, I believe. This was filed
on Linux so I'm resetting it to Linux. This should have been resolved fixed

Check out the print screen. Why is the bottom of the page like this?
Do you have a fix for this?
Created attachment 206182 [details]
It appears that there is some confusion. I am sure this bug has nothing to do with switching back from full screen etc. This screenshot shows what the screen looked like immediately after installing the latest version (17 Dec 2005) of Firfox Deer Park Alpha 2. I have not done any resizing/full screen etc. Firefox comes up with a huge chunk of grey at the bottom of the screen with no way to get rid of it. It is a seriously irritating bug since you can not see part of the web page. The description of the fault on your todo list does not sound the same.
This bug appears to have been sidelined. It is a show-stopper. Please look at the attachments. One can't work like this. If there is a work around please post info ASAP. Needs urgent attention!
The screenshots that Dave and Matthew posted have nothing to do with this bug; they are due to extensions breaking chrome.
Please do not comment here unless you are contributing to a solution. (Sorry for the bugspam.)
Andrew, do you see this. See comment 11
only with a branch build. this was fixed recently

NVIDIA Releases GeForce Drivers for Far Cry Primal, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition
Subject: Graphics Cards | March 2, 2016 - 10:30 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: nvidia, geforce, game ready, 362.00 WHQL
The new Far Cry game is out (Far Cry Primal), and for NVIDIA graphics card owners this means a new GeForce Game Ready driver. The 362.00 WHQL certified driver provides "performance optimizations and a SLI profile" for the new game, is now available via GeForce Experience, as well as the manual driver download page.
(Image credit: Ubisoft)
The 362.00 WHQL driver also supports the new Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, which is a remastered version of 2007 PC version of the game that includes Windows 10 only enhancements such as 4k resolution support and unlocked frame rates. (Why these "need" to be Windows 10 exclusives can be explained by checking the name of the game's publisher: Microsoft Studios.)
(Image credit: Microsoft)
Here's a list of what's new in version 362.00 of the driver:
Gaming Technology
- Added Beta support on GeForce GTX GPUs for external graphics over Thunderbolt 3. GPUs supported include all GTX 900 series, Titan X, and GeForce GTX 750 and 750Ti.
Fermi GPUs:
- As of Windows 10 November Update, Fermi GPUs now use WDDM 2.0 in single GPU configurations.
For multi-GPU configurations, WDDM usage is as follows:
- In non-SLI multi-GPU configurations, Fermi GPUs use WDDM 2.0. This includes configurations where a Fermi GPU is used with Kepler or Maxwell GPUs.
- In SLI mode, Fermi GPUs still use WDDM 1.3. Application SLI Profiles
Added or updated the following SLI profiles:
- Assassin's Creed Syndicate - SLI profile changed (with driver code as well) to make the application scale better
- Bless - DirectX 9 SLI profile added, SLI set to SLI-Single
- DayZ - SLI AA and NVIDIA Control Panel AA enhance disabled
- Dungeon Defenders 2 - DirectX 9 SLI profile added
- Elite Dangerous - 64-bit EXE added
- Hard West - DirectX 11 SLI profile added
- Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - multiplayer EXE added to profile
- Need for Speed - profile EXEs updated to support trial version of the game
- Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 - SLI profile added
- Rise of the Tomb Raider - profile added
- Sebastien Loeb Rally Evo - profile updated to match latest app behavior
- Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege - profile updated to match latest app behavior
- Tom Clancy's The Division - profile added
- XCOM 2 - SLI profile added (including necessary code change)
The "beta support on GeForce GTX GPUs for external graphics over Thunderbolt 3" is certainly interesting addition, and one that could eventually lead to external solutions for notebooks, coming on the heels of AMD teasing their own standardization of external GPUs.
The full release 361 (GeForce 362.00) notes can be viewed here (warning: PDF).
Report: NVIDIA Preparing GeForce GTX 980MX and 970MX Mobile GPUs
Subject: Graphics Cards | January 19, 2016 - 03:31 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: rumor, report, nvidia, GTX 980MX, GTX 980M, GTX 970MX, GTX 970M, geforce
NVIDIA is reportedly preparing faster mobile GPUs based on Maxwell, with a GTX 980MX and 970MX on the way.
The new GTX 980MX would sit between the GTX 980M and the laptop version of the full GTX 980, with 1664 CUDA cores (compared to 1536 with the 980M), 104 Texture Units (up from the 980M's 96), a 1048 MHz core clock, and up to 8 GB of GDDR5. Memory speed and bandwidth will reportedly be identical to the GTX 980M at 5000 MHz and 160 GB/s respectively, with both GPUs using a 256-bit memory bus.
The GTX 970MX represents a similar upgrade over the existing GTX 970M, with CUDA Core count increased from 1280 to 1408, Texture Units up from 80 to 88, and 8 additional raster devices available (56 vs. 48). Both the 970M and 970MX use 192-bit GDDR5 clocked at 5000 MHz, and available with the same 3 GB or 6 GB of frame buffer.
WCCFtech prepared a chart to demonstrate the differences between NVIDIA's mobile offerings:
|GeForce GTX 980 Laptop Version
|GeForce GTX 980MX
GeForce GTX 980M
|GeForce GTX 970MX
|GeForce GTX 970M
|GeForce GTX 965M

These new GPUs will reportedly be based on the same Maxwell GM204 core, and TDPs are apparently unchanged at 125W for the GTX 980MX, and 100W for the 970MX.
We will await any official announcement.
CES 2016: NVIDIA talks SHIELD Updates and VR-Ready Systems
Subject: Graphics Cards, Shows and Expos | January 6, 2016 - 02:39 AM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: vr ready, VR, virtual reality, video, Oculus, nvidia, htc, geforce, CES 2016, CES
Other than the in-depth discussion from NVIDIA on the Drive PX 2 and its push into autonomous driving, NVIDIA didn't have much other news to report. We stopped by the suite and got a few updates on SHIELD and the company's VR Ready program to certify systems that meet minimum recommended specifications for a solid VR experience.
For the SHIELD, NVIDIA is bringing Android 6.0 Marshmallow to the device, with new features like shared storage and the ability to customize the home screen of the Android TV interface. Nothing earth shattering and all of it is part of the 6.0 rollout.
The VR Ready program from NVIDIA will validate notebooks, systems and graphics cards that have the amount of horsepower to meet the minimum performance levels for a good VR experience. At this point, the specs essentially match up with what Oculus has put forth: a GTX 970 or better on the desktop and a GTX 980 (full, not 980M) on mobile.
Other than that, Ken and I took in some of the more recent VR demos including Epic's Bullet Train on the final Oculus Rift and Google's Tilt Brush on the latest iteration of the HTC Vive. Those were both incredibly impressive though the Everest demo that simulates a portion of the mountain climb was the one that really made me feel like I was somewhere else.

NVIDIA Updates GeForce Experience with Beta Features
Subject: Graphics Cards | December 16, 2015 - 01:12 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: nvidia, geforce experience, geforce
A new version of GeForce Experience was published yesterday. It is classified as a beta, which I'm guessing means that they wanted to release it before the Holidays, but they didn't want to have to fix potential, post-launch issues during the break. Thus, release it as a beta so users will just roll back if something doesn't work. On the other hand, NVIDIA is suggesting that it will be a recurring theme with their new "Early Access" program.
It has a few interesting features, though. First, it has a screenshot function that connects with Imgur. Steam's F12 function is pretty good for almost any title, but there are some times that you don't want to register the game with Steam, so a second option is welcome. They also have an overlay to control your stream, rather than just an indicator icon.
They added the ability to choose the Twitch Ingest Server, which is the server that the broadcaster connects to and delivers your stream into Twitch's back-end. I haven't used ShadowPlay for a while, but you previously needed to use whatever GeForce Experience chose. If it's not the best connection (ex: across the continent) then you basically had to deal with it. OBS and OBS Studio have these features too of course. I'll be clear: NVIDIA is playing catch-up to open source software in that area.
The last feature to be mentioned might just be the most interesting, though. A while ago, we mentioned that NVIDIA wants to allow online co-op by a GameStream-like service. They now have it, and it's called GameStream Co-op. The viewer can watch, take over your input, or register as a second gamepad. It requires a GeForce GTX 650 (or 660M) or higher.
Report: NVIDIA To Cut GeForce GTX 900 Series GPU Prices
Subject: Graphics Cards | November 30, 2015 - 08:48 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: rumor, report, price cut, nvidia, GTX 980, GTX 970, gtx 960, geforce
A report published by TechPowerUp suggests NVIDIA will soon be cutting prices across their existing GeForce lineup, with potential price changes reaching consumers in time for the holiday shopping season.
So what does this report suggest? The GTX 980 drops to $449, the GTX 970 goes to $299, and the GTX 960 goes to $179. These are pretty consistent with some of the sale or post-rebate prices we've seen of late, and such a move would certainly even things up somewhat between AMD and NVIDIA with regard to cost. Of course, we could see an answer from AMD in the form of a price reduction from their R9 300-series or Fury/Nano. We can only hope!
We've already seen prices come down during various black Friday sales on several GPUs, but the potential for a permanent price cut makes for interesting speculation if nothing else. Not to disparage the source, but no substantive evidence exists to directly point to a plan by NVIDIA to lower their GPU prices for some 900-series cards, but it would make sense given their competition from AMD at various price points.
Here's to lower prices going forward.
NVIDIA Releases Driver 358.91 for Fallout 4, Star Wars Battlefront, Legacy of the Void
Subject: Graphics Cards | November 9, 2015 - 06:44 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: nvidia, geforce, 358.91, fallout 4, Star Wars, battlefront, starcraft, legacy of the void
It's a huge month for PC gaming with the release of Bethesda's Fallout 4 and EA's Star Wars Battlefront likely to take up hours and hours of your (and my) time in the lead up to the holiday season. NVIDIA just passed over links to its latest "Game Ready" driver, version 358.91.
Fallout 4 is going to be impressive graphically
Here's the blurb from NVIDIA directly:
Continuing to fulfill our commitment to GeForce gamers to have them Game Ready for the top Holiday titles, today we released a new Game Ready driver. This Game Ready driver will get GeForce Gamers set-up for tomorrow's release of Fallout 4, as well as Star Wars Battlefront, StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void. WHQLed and ready for the Fallout wasteland, driver version 358.91 will deliver the best experience for GeForce gamers in some of the holiday's hottest titles.
Other than learning that NVIDIA considers "WHQLed" to be a verb now, this is good news for PC gamers looking to dive into the world of Fallout or take up arms against the Empire on the day of release. I honestly believe that these kinds of software updates and frequent driver improvements timed to major game releases is one of the biggest advantages that GeForce gamers have over Radeon users; though I hold out hope that the red team will get on the same cadence with one Raja Koduri in charge.
You can also find more information from NVIDIA about configuration with its own GPUs for Fallout 4 and for Star Wars Battlefront on GeForce.com.
NVIDIA Confirms Clock Speed, Power Increases at High Refresh Rates, Promises Fix
Subject: Graphics Cards | November 6, 2015 - 09:05 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: ROG Swift, refresh rate, pg279q, nvidia, GTX 980 Ti, geforce, asus, 165hz, 144hz
Last month I wrote a story that detailed some odd behavior with NVIDIA's GeForce GTX graphics cards and high refresh rate monitors, in particular with the new ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q that has a rated 165Hz refresh rate. We found that when running this monitor at 144Hz or higher refresh rate, idle clock speeds and power consumption of the graphics card increased dramatically.
The results are much more interesting than I expected! At 60Hz refresh rate, the monitor was drawing just 22.1 watts while the entire testing system was idling at 73.7 watts. (Note: the display was set to its post-calibration brightness of just 31.) Moving up to 100Hz and 120Hz saw very minor increases in power consumption from both the system and monitor.
But the jump to 144Hz is much more dramatic – idle system power jumps from 76 watts to almost 134 watts – an increase of 57 watts! Monitor power only increased by 1 watt at that transition though. At 165Hz we see another small increase, bringing the system power up to 137.8 watts.
When running the monitor at 60Hz, 100Hz and even 120Hz, the GPU clock speed sits comfortably at 135MHz. When we increase from 120Hz to 144Hz though, the GPU clock spikes to 885MHz and stays there, even at the Windows desktop. According to GPU-Z the GPU is running at approximately 30% of the maximum TDP.
We put NVIDIA on notice with the story and followed up with emails including more information from other users as well as additional testing completed after the story was posted. The result: NVIDIA has confirmed it exists and has a fix incoming!
In an email we got from NVIDIA PR last night:
We checked into the observation you highlighted with the newest 165Hz G-SYNC monitors.
Guess what? You were right! That new monitor (or you) exposed a bug in the way our GPU was managing clocks for GSYNC and very high refresh rates.
As a result of your findings, we are fixing the bug which will lower the operating point of our GPUs back to the same power level for other displays.
We'll have this fixed in an upcoming driver.
This actually supports an oddity we found before: we noticed that the PG279Q at 144Hz refresh was pushing GPU clocks up pretty high while a monitor without G-Sync support at 144Hz did not. We'll see if this addresses the entire gamut of experiences that users have had (and have emailed me about) with high refresh rate displays and power consumption, but at the very least NVIDIA is aware of the problems and working to fix them.
I don't have confirmation of WHEN I'll be able to test out that updated driver, but hopefully it will be soon, so we can confirm the fix works with the displays we have in-house. NVIDIA also hasn't confirmed what the root cause of the problem is - was it related to the clock domains as we had theorized? Maybe not, since this was a G-Sync specific display issue (based on the quote above). I'll try to weasel out the technical reasoning for the bug if we can and update the story later!
NVIDIA Promoting Game Ready Drivers with Giveaway
Subject: Graphics Cards | November 4, 2015 - 02:01 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: nvidia, graphics drivers, geforce, game ready
In mid-October, NVIDIA announced that Game Ready drivers would only be available through GeForce Experience with a registered email address, which we covered. Users are able to opt-out of NVIDIA's mailing list, though. They said that this would provide early access to new features, chances to win free hardware, and the ability to participate in the driver development process.
Today's announcement follows up on the "win free hardware" part. The company will be giving away $100,000 worth of prizes, including graphics cards up to the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, game keys, and SHIELD Android TV boxes. To be eligible, users need to register with GeForce Experience and use it to download the latest Game Ready driver.
Speaking of Game Ready drivers, the main purpose of this blog post is to share the list of November/December games that are in this program. NVIDIA pledges to have optimized drivers for these titles on or before their release date:
- Assassin's Creed: Syndicate
- Call of Duty Black Ops III
- Civilization Online
- Fallout 4
- Just Cause 3
- Monster Hunter Online
- Overwatch
- RollerCoaster Tycoon World
- StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void
- Star Wars Battlefront
- Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
- War Thunder
As is the case recently, NVIDIA also plans to get every Game Ready driver certified by Microsoft, through Microsoft's WHQL driver certification program.

Subject: Graphics Cards, Displays | October 24, 2015 - 08:16 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: ROG Swift, refresh rate, pg279q, nvidia, GTX 980 Ti, geforce, asus, 165hz, 144hz
In the comments to our recent review of the ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q G-Sync monitor, a commenter by the name of Cyclops pointed me in the direction of an interesting quirk that I hadn't considered before. According to reports, the higher refresh rates of some panels, including the 165Hz option available on this new monitor, can cause power draw to increase by as much as 100 watts on the system itself. While I did say in the review that the larger power brick ASUS provided with it (compared to last year's PG278Q model) pointed toward higher power requirements for the display itself, I never thought to measure the system.
To setup a quick test I brought the ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q back to its rightful home in front of our graphics test bed, connected an EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti (with GPU driver 358.50) and chained both the PC and the monitor up to separate power monitoring devices. While sitting at a Windows 8.1 desktop I cycled the monitor through different refresh rate options and then recorded the power draw from both meters after 60-90 seconds of time to idle out.
The results are much more interesting than I expected! At 60Hz refresh rate, the monitor was drawing just 22.1 watts while the entire testing system was idling at 73.7 watts. (Note: the display was set to its post-calibration brightness of just 31.) Moving up to 100Hz and 120Hz saw very minor increases in power consumption from both the system and monitor.
But the jump to 144Hz is much more dramatic – idle system power jumps from 76 watts to almost 134 watts – an increase of 57 watts! Monitor power only increased by 1 watt at that transition though. At 165Hz we see another small increase, bringing the system power up to 137.8 watts.
Interestingly we did find that the system would repeatedly jump to as much as 200+ watts of idle power draw for 30 seconds at time and then drop back down to the 135-140 watt area for a few minutes. It was repeatable and very measurable.
So, what the hell is going on? A look at GPU-Z clock speeds reveals the source of the power consumption increase.
When running the monitor at 60Hz, 100Hz and even 120Hz, the GPU clock speed sits comfortably at 135MHz. When we increase from 120Hz to 144Hz though, the GPU clock spikes to 885MHz and stays there, even at the Windows desktop. According to GPU-Z the GPU is running at approximately 30% of the maximum TDP.
Though details are sparse, it seems pretty obvious what is going on here. The pixel clock and the GPU clock are connected through the same domain and are not asynchronous. The GPU needs to maintain a certain pixel clock in order to support the required bandwidth of a particular refresh rate, and based on our testing, the idle clock speed of 135MHz doesn't give the pixel clock enough throughput to power anything more than a 120Hz refresh rate.
Pushing refresh rates of 144Hz and higher causes a surprsing increase in power draw
The obvious question here though is why NVIDIA would need to go all the way up to 885MHz in order to support the jump from 120Hz to 144Hz refresh rates. It seems quite extreme and the increased power draw is significant, causing the fans on the EVGA GTX 980 Ti to spin up even while sitting idle at the Windows desktop. NVIDIA is aware of the complication, though it appears that a fix won't really be in order until an architectural shift is made down the road. With the ability to redesign the clock domains available to them, NVIDIA could design the pixel and GPU clock to be completely asynchronous, increasing one without affecting the other. It's not a simple process though, especially in a processor this complex. We have seen Intel and AMD correctly and effectively separate clocks in recent years on newer CPU designs.
What happens to a modern AMD GPU like the R9 Fury with a similar test? To find out we connected our same GPU test bed to the ASUS MG279Q, a FreeSync enabled monitor capable of 144 Hz refresh rates, and swapped the GTX 980 Ti for an ASUS R9 Fury STRIX.
The AMD Fury does not demonstrate the same phenomenon that the GTX 980 Ti does when running at high refresh rates. The Fiji GPU runs at the same static 300MHz clock rate at 60Hz, 120Hz and 144Hz and the power draw on the system only inches up by 2 watts or so. I wasn't able to test 165Hz refresh rates on the AMD setup so it is possible that at that threshold the AMD graphics card would behave differently. It's also true that the NVIDIA Maxwell GPU is running at less than half the clock rate of AMD Fiji in this idle state, and that may account for difference in pixel clocks we are seeing. Still, the NVIDIA platform draws slightly more power at idle than the AMD platform, so advantage AMD here.
For today, know that if you choose to use a 144Hz or even a 165Hz refresh rate on your NVIDIA GeForce GPU you are going to be drawing a bit more power and will be less efficient than expected even just sitting in Windows. I would bet that most gamers willing to buy high end display hardware capable of those speeds won't be overly concerned with 50-60 watts of additional power draw, but it's an interesting data point for us to track going forward and to compare AMD and NVIDIA hardware in the future.
NVIDIA Releases 358.50 WHQL Game Ready Drivers
Subject: Graphics Cards | October 7, 2015 - 05:45 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: opengl es 3.2, nvidia, graphics drivers, geforce
The GeForce Game Ready 358.50 WHQL driver has been released so users can perform their updates before the Star Wars Battlefront beta goes live tomorrow (unless you already received a key). As with every "Game Ready" driver, NVIDIA ensures that the essential performance and stability tweaks are rolled in to this version, and tests it against the title. It is WHQL certified too, which is a recent priority for NVIDIA. Years ago, "Game Ready" drivers were often classified as Beta, but the company now intends to pass their work through Microsoft for a final sniff test.
Another interesting addition to this driver is the inclusion of OpenGL 2015 ARB and OpenGL ES 3.2. To use OpenGL ES 3.2 on the PC, if you want to develop software in it for instance, you needed to use a separate release since it was released at SIGGRAPH. It has now been rolled into the main, public driver. The mobile devs who use their production machines to play Battlefront rejoice, I guess. It might also be useful if developers, for instance at Mozilla or Google, want to create pre-release implementations of future WebGL specs too.

Does anyone out here have ideas about how to set up a nice visual activity to teach middle school kids square numbers (perfect squares)?
Also, any challenging problems are welcome, e-mail me your instructions! I am very fond of logical thinking that doesn't involve much calculations. The kids are always delighted to find the answer by looking at the problem from a different angle, drawing a picture or just arranging the data in a way that makes the questions simple.
In unrelated news, several students told me that I had lost weight. I wonder how it's even possible, given the quantities I've been eating over the past two weeks. Well, miracles are at your doorstep, as it were.

This doesn't really teach square numbers, but it's a cool puzzle to practice. You basically have a rectangle composed of perfect squares. Students have to figure out the side length of each square.

Blue Note Jazz Festival: Buika
This event has already taken place. Click here for the latest events.
Voted one of world's "50 Great Voices" by NPR, Buika -- born on the island of MaJorca to African immigrant parents -- has emerged as a true innovator, a must-see artist among jazz aficionados. Her evident African roots and her cosmopolitanism, developed in clubs in Spain and Americanized during a surreal stint in Las Vegas, explain Buika's rare self-possession. But nothing can quite explain her ability to connect, in spite of the fact that she sings nearly exclusively in Spanish -- Buika is simply one of those rare and wonderful "one listen" artists.
Venue Description: Home to live events ranging from world music, jazz, gospel, blues, folk, show tunes, political humor, theatre, dance, the critically acclaimed Broadway by the Year, Garrison Keillor's annual holiday residency, and more. Most recently, The Dalai Lama and President Obama have graced the stage. Located in Times Square/the Theater District.

reports from Durban
France 36 Ireland 12
Pierre Berbizier is wearying of being asked to supply champagne rugby, fed up with the limitless animadversion of his vast camp-following of French media. What more could they want of the coach than for his team to have qualified to play South Africa in next Saturday's World Cup semi- final back here at King's Park?
Well, quite a lot actually. In baking midday heat the Irish were almost peripheral to this quarter-final, contributing even less than the French to a match that would have been of numbing mediocrity had the anaesthetic not already been applied by Ireland's pool match against Wales.
In which case it was down to the French players to elevate the spirits, but the only spirits they elevated were their own, by winning. This was a victory based on vigour, rigour and the almost unerring place-kicking of Thierry Lacroix, France's tries finally occurring - almost by mischance - after 79 minutes and four minutes into injury time.
"I believe the champagne can be drunk by this French team," Berbizier insisted. "The problem is uncorking it." Perversely, if the French forwards play like this against the Springboks they could even win the match, just as they did on Saturday, by bashing the life out of it. Ill-served at half-back, the French backs were as peripheral as the entire Irish XV.
Against Scotland, France had been forced to get the ball moving as only they can, and they won gloriously at the death. Against Ireland there was no such necessity but, even if there had been, on this occasion it is hard to imagine the fizz being anything but flat. They were like the Irish in having no plan beyond getting down there and then seeing what turned up.
For Ireland this was a negativity which guaranteed defeat once the French pack had taken control. Failing to make their way too often into French territory, all they could think of - and, as Terry Kingston, the captain, admitted afterwards, it was pre-planned - was to kick. As ever, Irish talk of wanting to vary their play by running the ball was so much blarney.
It is a style known in the Emerald Isle as "boot, bollock and boot" and, supported by the sort of frenzied opening of which Ireland are sometimes capable, it was sufficient to beat the woebegone Welsh and even to cause the All Blacks a fleeting apprehension.
But a day-trip to Durban revealed the Irish to have already reached the limit - of their stamina, of their skill and also alas of their desire - when they were in Johannesburg. "We were lethargic and tired," Noel Murphy, the manager, said. The fact was, and Murphy must have known it, that by their very arrival in the last eight his side had shoved two fingers up at their multitude of critics back home.
If France had not been so awful, you might have imagined Ireland were competitive during the first half. But this was purely relative and, though four penalties each for Lacroix and Eric Elwood brought the antagonists to half-time at 12-12, once the French had the wind the conclusion was foregone.
Not that anything much - beyond another four Lacroix penalties which gave him eight and a share with Neil Jenkins and Gavin Hastings of one of the less agreeable world records - happened. For one thing France could not get the ball through their outside-half, Christophe Deylaud, whose play is as eccentric and erratic as his appearance.
The "Toulouse Tramp", shirt hanging out below his shorts like a nightie, might just as well have been sleepwalking for all the good he did France's back play and made so many crass errors that in the end you had to feel sorry for him. Berbizier will recall that when he put on a similar performance against England in February he asked to be dropped.
Finally, when the Irish were out on their feet and it no longer mattered, the cork began to be pulled when Lacroix's wandering behind his forwards suddenly brought Roumat and the exceptional Cabannes into action and Hueber, the relieved Deylaud and Cecillon combined to give Philippe Saint-Andre the try.
Then Brendan Mullin's pass intended for Simon Geoghegan was intercepted by Emile N'Tamack, who had a clear 95-yard run for the distant Irish line. This was not a cause for celebration. "You have the right to decide about the performance of the team," Berbizier growled at his French critics, who seem to be legion. "My job is to talk to my players." Fair enough: after this, they could do with a good talking-to.

I have a hard time picturing how getting "tangled in a swing set" can leave a girl in critical condition. Despite going to the trouble of dragging an engineer out to a playground, this article doesn't bother to explain what happened to the girl.
Hope she gets better soon though.

Our prayers are with your family. Praying for
God's peace to surround you and a for a miracle for hannah.

The reality of this situation is so sad. She got caught in the ropes because her and her little friend were twisting and spinning on the swings. The sad thing is, this little girl may have been without oxygen for too long. They found her unconscious and by the time the paramedics arrived, 3 to 4 minutes had gone by without support. I have seen this too many times in my work in the medical field.
Keep this little girl and her family in your prayers. I sure will.

This was such a tragic accident. I pray that she can pull through. This just shows how important the buddy system is. Being a mother of three with number four due in a few weeks, I know it is impossible to watch your child every second. But thankfully this little girl's playmate was able to get her some help. Who knows how long she would have been there if she were playing alone. I hope everyone learns from this and talks to their children about safety, and always sticking together.

Parent, please, please, please learn CPR. It's a 3 hour class at the Red Cross. I made my mother and husband take it while I was pregnant. I renew mine every year through work. Every babysitter I used had to know it too. They can live with a broken arm, but not if they're not breathing.

We will join in agreement with you over the childs healing. When God is in the house, miracles happen!

Well said,
this is a a little girls life at stake and deserves only positive responses. If you don't believe in prayer power at least "be nice" regarding this little girls situation and show compassion.
#11 Apr 27, 2008
no, times like this do not call for faith and useless quotes about mustard seeds and mountains.
Times like this require practical involvement in the childs care, realistic viewpoints, and an understanding of what went wrong, and how this can be prevented in the future.
If this poor girl dies, or sustains lifelong imperative injuries, they will say its gods will. If she recovers they will claim miracle. This is not helpful or productive.
#12 Apr 27, 2008
My heart, thoughts and prayers go out to this family.
And to Scott... You remind me of one of my favorite quotes:
"That's the thing about faith. If you don't have it, you can't understand it, and if you do have it, no explanation is necessary."
#13 Apr 27, 2008
What's done is done. Would it have been helpful if the mom did cpr? Who knows. I'm an EMT, so I know all kinds of life saving skills. But will I be able to do them on my own child? So who's to say she doesn't know cpr. Who knows how they will be able to react when it is your child. I hope I'll never be put to that test. That family is feeling utterly helpless right now because ALL they can do is pray and ask for prayers. The rest is in the health care professionals hands.
The last thing the family needs is to see a post where someone is blaming them for not preforming cpr. I'm positive the family is already blaming themselves. None of us where on the scene. We have no idea what the mother tried to do, or did.
If the family wants prayers, I will pray for them.

The truth of the matter is she is someone's beautiful and cherished little girl - they are facing an extreme test of faith right now - may God be with Hannah and her family. I also am an RN and have seen many miracles take place - we can only pray with them for her healing as they have requested!! May God bless you!

Doctors began to raise Hannah's core temperature Saturday and wean her off some medications so her brain has a chance to heal from the injury, Cook said after the service. Sunday and Monday will be critical days in her recovery, he said. She remained in critical condition Saturday night.

I can't count the number of times I was told as a child "do not twist up the swing" but it's so fun to twirl around in the unwind..
I don't think any playground is going to be without some hazards. it wasn't a broken piece of equipment that cause the accident was it? I hope that all swings aren't removed from play equipment because of this.
I've watched my own children wind up in the swing just to spin around as it untwists itself.
Prayers to the family and for the sweet child that was just trying to have some fun!

So you're an athiest and do not believe in G-d? which makes your post a little confusing because you claimed that people are Praying to air basically, when they Pray, yet you then state that you believe in G-d's will
Which is it?

Scott have you seen "Unsolved Mysteries?" An actual scientific study was done to see if prayer had any affect on the recovery of patients. Guess what? It had a significant affect in the outcome for the complete recovery. So pray on people!!!! For those who don't believe: know what you are talking about before you open you mouth it just make you look...
God Bless all of you,

And other studies have concluded that Prayer is nothing more than a psychological benefit to the one doing the Praying
