Publisher's Summary
Natalie Jones is the lucky survivor of an elusive killer who preys on young women and then disappears from view. And since her harrowing ordeal, the once gutsy photojournalist has remained isolated in her home, paralyzed by fear and her failing vision.
Special Agent Liam "Mac" McKenzie has scars of his own. But despite his efforts to ignore the attraction that simmers between him and Natalie, he needs her help to catch a predator.
Soon, they will forge a tentative alliance - charged with desire. Through a soft-focus lens, Natalie dares to envision a future with Mac beyond the investigation … never guessing that the clues hidden within her photographs are drawing them into an explosive confrontation with a madman.

GREAT Romantic Suspense!!
Natalie Jones was once a famous photographer ~ but now, paralyzed by blindness that was brought on by a degenerative eye disease, Natalie is pretty much at a stand still in her life. Denying to herself that her blindness might be forever and that she's going to have change her way of living, Natalie has pretty much isolated herself ~~ until she walks in to her own home on what appears to be a burglary in progress and is almost killed.
State Special Agent Liam "Mac" McKenzie and his partner show up to interview Natalie when certain things about her case click with a case they've been working ~ a murder case. When Mac meets Natalie he's instantly and forcefully attracted to her ~ to the point he can't focus on anything else. Not realizing she's blind at first, he's suspicious why this woman is holding back and so abrasive w/ the cops.
The sparks fly instantly ~ while Natalie can't 'see' Mac, she drawn to his voice, but she's scared and confused as to why the cops are back ~~ until she realizes there is more to the simple break in that what she'd first thought.
This book was SO good ~ I listened to the audio version, and the narrator was a little slow in the narration, so I had to speed the narration up to 1.25, but then it was perfect! I so felt for Natalie, who had had her world turned upside down on her...then flipped on it's side. First, the blindness, then the break in and attempt on her life, then meeting this man she feels such a compelling pull towards. And she hadn't even begun to accept her blindness yet.
Mac is a gruff, in your face kind of guy ~ and his protective instincts have flared to life with Natalie, and it's hard for him to separate her as woman from her as a case. I LOVE that ~ and while he's really gruff at times, it was clear to me that even if he couldn't admit it to himself, he'd already decided on some level that Natalie was HIS.
When he discovers that there is actually a murderer trying to kill her, he just can't control his overbearing maleness, for lack of a better way to put it. He's a total Alpha in every sense of the word ~ And Natalie has teach him that he can't run her life.
I enjoyed this book immensely, and cannot WAIT for book 2 ~~ if you're a fan of romantic suspense, Alpha heroes, and sexy romance, READ THIS!!

Suprisingly Accurate
Where does Shades of Desire rank among all the audiobooks you've listened to so far?
The story was greaat, for one thing, the author was very, very good at potraying a newly blind person who wasn't born that way. I know this because I am legally blind myself and know a lot of blind people. The story was good, and didn't have the heroine magically able to defend herself thank god. Also, the author delved into the issues of blindness and relationships to a great degee. The mystery wasn't much of a who-dunnit, it was more of a how-did-it.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I liked Mac, because he was willing to open up and accept someone with a disability, and he was a good cop, though he could lay on the jerk rather thickly.
I liked Natalie too, even her rudeness is quite normal, at least from what I've seen, so to some she might seem very unpleasant, but few people are when they are coming to terms with blindness.
What aspect of Ashley Adlon's performance would you have changed?
I'd have liked a bit more differentiation between the voices of characters.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Any additional comments?
I was frankly stunned at how well the author did handling the blindness in this book. I thought the story was believable and not over the top. I know there is to be a sequel to this book, but I wish the main characters would stay the same.

A Nontraditional Romance
This is in most ways a very traditional contemporary suspense romance. One thing makes it different - the heroines disability. What makes it stand out isn't that the heroine is blind. Unfortunately there aren't that many romances written with a heroine with a disability that affects their character so profoundly. There should be more. But what makes the heroine and her disability so unique is that the book covers a space in time when she actually loses her vision, something she has known would happen someday, something she watched her mother go through and something that will not only change how she moves through life but spells the end of a career she loves. And just when she is at her most vulnerable, when she is just learning how to survive, she is unwittingly embroiled in a crime solely because of something she may or may not have even seen.
I am not sure if the author meant to include so much symbolism and synchronicity into what on the surface is a romance novel. The chosen profession of a woman who knew the one physical characteristic necessary to perform that profession would soon desert her, the debate about what the photographer actually "sees" when they take a picture, what people miss when nothing ever "stares them in the face" and the undesired attraction between a man who is certain he never wants to be in a relationship with a dependent woman again, and a woman who never wants to depend on anyone, but has no choice but to do so. Most importantly, in the world this genre exists within, "love-at-first-sight" is always based on immediate physical attraction. It is kind of hard to believe in this phenomenon when one of the two parties involved has no sight.
Other than the conflict created by the loss of sight, this is a pretty formulaic romance. The secondary characters, and even the main male character are underdeveloped and there are so many potential plot lines introduced but never expanded upon that I have no idea why they were introduced in the first place. Why did the main protagonist never know he had a brother until he was in prison? Why were the heroines therapists telling her it was OK to hide herself off from the rest of the world and live such a solitary life, and why did she listen to such stupid advice? And why did the hero and secondary characters keep talking to or about other blind people but nothing ever progressed beyond their conversation.
I've obviously thought too much about this book and this plot. And while I can't say it was a great story, great plot or extremely well written, the fact that I have thought about it so much must mean something. So, I think that I am rather surprisingly recommending this book.

What was most disappointing about Virna DePaul's story?
Dumb, dumb woman as the lead. While I could appreciate the way that she wrote about the woman's blindness - it was hard to overlook the woman's sheer stupidity in continually putting herself in harms way in her quest to be "independent." I am all for independence - but there is nothing more annoying that stupidity in the guise of independence. Plus - she was just hateful at times.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Ashley Adlon?
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Shades of Desire?
There wouldn't be much book left....
Any additional comments?
Wasted my money on this one. I couldn't even finish it - I just got so annoyed trying to listen to it - I finally gave up.

Good story, poor narrator
I enjoyed this story - the protagonist is blind and this gives the standard romantic suspense story an interesting and different angle. The story has a bit of everything - excitement, mystery, romance and the pacing is just right. Natalie survives a few attempts on her life, an intruder in her house and an attempted kidnapping, all of which would be terrifying enough for a sighted person but she seems to just shrug them of in a bit of a cavalier fashion, being more concerned about inherited insanity. Other than that, though, the characters were engaging and just flawed enough to be likeable.
The narrator though, not so much. The mark of a good narrator is one that you can't "hear", whose own voice doesn't intrude on the story. This narrator has a melodramatic downturn inflexion in her voice at the end of EVERY sentence, which I found very intrusive. Although she managed to differentiate the womens' voices a little bit, the men, especially Mac, she read in the same bored, monotone as she did the narrative parts. Mac sounded like an automaton - no passion, no interest, no personality. If this book had been narrated by, say, Johanna Parker or Gabra Zachman it would have been a much better read.
I'd definitely look for another book by Virna DePaul but I'd be looking for a different narrator.

good plot but not much romance
Is there anything you would change about this book?
the narrator could have read a little faster. I had to put the book on faster speed. I wish the story had more romance in it. I felt like the romance was rushed. The character did not even know each other that much before they fell in love. I like the suspense in the plot was very good and different.

So I have another wolf version of a My Little Pony and I think you will like this one. Up next we will learn "how to draw wolf Fluttershy", step by step. Fluttershy is one of the sweeter, innocent shy looking ponies which is probably why she is one of the more popular out of the bunch. I went back and tweaked the drawing on her face because before I drew her eyes overly excited and that didn't fit her personality. Instead, I drew her eyes in a shy, innocent stare which I think fits this wolf version of Fluttershy perfectly. My little sister is the one that said "I don't like her face". So this is what we ended up with. I do hope you enjoy these concept lessons on some of our favorite MLP ponies as much as I enjoy making them. I will be back with more fun so try and stick around if you can.

PALO ALTO — In the heart of bustling downtown Palo Alto on Thursday afternoon, police officers had a dramatic encounter with a 34-year-old man accused of driving through the plate glass window of a Hookah lounge on University Avenue and then wrestling with one of the officers, ripping the Glock 22 handgun from his duty belt and trying to fire before he was subdued by another officer's stun gun.
The Glock 22, though pulled from the belt, remained in its holster, preventing the suspect from pulling the trigger, according to the Palo Alto Police Department.
Police declined to identify the suspect, who was hospitalized Thursday with injuries to his head and mouth that police say were sustained when he crashed through the window of The Hookah Spot.
The officer who tackled the suspect struck his head on an electrical box during the struggle and was bitten on the shoulder by the suspect, according to a statement from Palo Alto police. The officer was treated and released from the hospital.
Police were summoned to the scene after receiving several 9-1-1 calls just before 3 p.m. Thursday reporting the suspect's bizarre behavior. According to reports, he was first coursing through a backyard on Emerson Street, then running into Mills the Florist shop on University Avenue.
He walked through an employees-only area and through a back passageway to The Hookah Spot, which was closed. He leapt through the window and gashed his head, police say, then ran up Ramona Street toward Lytton Avenue and Emerson Street, where the police officer stopped him.
"When the officer directed him to stop, the suspect immediately attacked the officer and the two began struggling on the sidewalk," according to the police statement.
As the officer and suspect wrestled for control of the holstered gun, two other officers arrived within 30 seconds. One of them used his stun gun to subdue the suspect.
Anyone who has information about the incident is asked to call the 24-hour dispatch center at 650-329-2413. Anonymous tips can be emailed to firstname.lastname@example.com or sent via text message or voice mail to 650-383-8984.

Today, the new book by Tracey West, 'Poetry of Divorce: for Women' has launched in paperback and Kindle e-book, across the globe.
It is the product of the tricky divorce endured by the author, but by no means an embittered read. She discovered that writing poetry was one of her coping mechanisms for getting through it, then she dived head first into a world of poetic fiction.
The end result is a 138 page book covering a wide range of divorce based situations, with an eye catching range of black and white photography to accompany every poem, also taken by the author.
Topics covered include filthy habits, leading up to leaving, solicitors, getting back into the saddle again, sex and other social experiments and new life.
The book is available in the UK, the US, throughout Europe, in Japan, even Australia and Tracey hopes it will go a long way towards encouraging women to pick up a pen and notepad to start writing out their dark days, rather than relying on less healthy solutions.
She isn't afraid to admit she had depression and anxiety at times and sought medical assistance to help her get through it. Tracey also hopes that her comfortable admission of this will entice others to stamp out the stigma that often goes with a confession of this sort.
'There are lots of solutions available to help you get through the trauma of divorce and early separation and if you think you are suffering, your doctor is the best place to start', Tracey explains.
For details of the contents and worldwide stockists, visit www.PoetryofDivorce.com and click on the Shop for the most up to date information.
Poetically yours,
The Team

This is to ask for the exact meaning of the expression You must be kidding. More precisely, is it supposed to be: (a) friendly, (b) antagonistic, or (c) neither one?
In French the answer to my question for the roughly equivalent expressions Tu plaisantes or Tu rigoles would definitely be (a) but, as we all know, faux-amis do exist.

Bluffton High's inexperienced wrestling team is learning on the job against top competition, according to Head Coach John Hollman.
"We have a very young team, so everybody is the future," Hollman said. "We're living in the past at present."
Last week the Bobcats won a tight match against Region 7-3A opponent Battery Creek and traveled to Columbia over the weekend to grapple with some of the best competition in the state at the Dreher High Blue Devil Invitational.
BHS prepared Monday for the anticipated rivalry match against the Hilton Head Seahawks scheduled for Tuesday evening.
At Dreher, "the competition was as good as you can get," Hollman said. "We like to call those 'shake-out' tournaments. We get to see where we're at against the best."
The Blue Devil Invitational included 32 teams and traditionally features some of the best wrestlers in the state.
"We're likely to see many of the 3A opponents again before the year is over. And we got to face some of the Upstate teams we wouldn't see otherwise until the state tournament," the coach said.
The Bobcats carried nine wrestlers (of 14 weight classes) to Columbia. Among them, sophomore Levi Joli placed first in the 113-pound weight class; sophomore Lloyd Williams placed third in the 106-pound class; and junior Austin Farmer placed fourth in the 132-pound class. Narrowly missing the final four, sophomore Michael Meyerink lost in the medal round.
Meanwhile, the Bobcat youth movement also made its mark in the state junior varsity qualifying tournament last weekend.
Johnny Kautter placed first in the 145-pound class; Nick Stead placed first in the 106-pound class; Evans Beach waws fourth in the 120-pound class; and Buddy Drew was fourth in the 106-pound class. Kautter and Beach are sophomores; Stead and Drew are freshmen. Also for the JVs, sophomores Frank Ferrato and Alex Waddell lost in the medal round.
Earlier in the week, Bluffton came from behind to beat Battery Creek 39-36. The win improved the Bobcats' record to 6-2 overall, 1-0 in the region.
"Battery Creek is always tough, ever since they've been in existence," Hollman said. "We were fortuitous and it was a big win for a young program."
The match featured Bluffton pins by Williams, Joly, Farmer, Alex Ruppert and Harry Chirinos. Meyerink won a major decision and Waner Velasquez won by technical fall for BHS.

Two men were injured overnight in separate shootings incidents in Baltimore, police said, with one victim shot after being robbed and another shot in the parking lot of a nightclub.
At about 11:30 p.m. Friday, police went to the 5200 block of Hillwell Road in the Westgate neighborhood to investigate a report of a shooting. They found no victim, but a 25-year-old man turned up shortly after at a hospital with a gunshot wound to his stomach. He told detectives he was sitting in a car in that block when two suspects approached, then robbed and shot him.

From Openmoko
This page is very useful. Thank you for creating it.
In addition to the categories/features you have listed already, I suggest something about its status/usefulness -- like "Who would use this?" For example, FSO milestone 1 is probably "Developers only".
Also, it might be useful to have something that succinctly describes the expected target state for each distribution. For example, FSO is the "Strategic framework for Openmoko".
I know this is a Wiki and I wouldn't mind doing this myself, but I thought I'd bounce the idea out there first.
In addition to the distros already covered, should we add a description of the Qtopia images here? From playing around w/ the images linked on Latest_Images it seems to be pretty functional.
I thought the FSO stack dialer application was written in Python. If so the FSO stack does indeed have it :) -Tig
What about Mamona?
Should it be added here?
What is it?
Mamona is an alternative Linux distribution for Maemo (read Nokia Internet Tablets). Unless someone already have ported it to run on Neo's, I don't think it should be added here. Tingo 22:35, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Warmth across the Pacific stalls brewing El Nino
Expectations of a strong El Nino weather event in the Pacific are being pared back but warmer-than-usual conditions are expected to persist, meteorologists say.
The latest prediction by the Bureau of Meteorology retains the 70 per cent or more likelihood that an El Nino will form this year with sea-surface temperatures in the equatorial central and eastern Pacific remaining well above average.
So far, though, there are few signs that the atmosphere is responding to the oceanic priming, suggesting that if an El Nino forms it is less likely to be as strong as some models were indicating earlier this year.
With typical El Ninos, the eastern Pacific is warm relative to the west, reversing or stalling the easterly trade winds. During such events, much of Asia and Australia have relatively dry and warm years, while the Americas often have wet years.
One aspect that is intriguing scientists is the fact that much of the Pacific – not just the east – is unusually warm. In fact, June may have experienced the largest departure in sea-surface temperatures of any month on record, climatologists say.
Japan Meteorological Agency noted this week that monthly sea-surface temperatures were ''remarkably'' above average in regions ranging from near Japan to the coast of North America, and from Mexico to the Philippines.
Global average surface temperatures – including land and near-surface readings – were 0.32 degrees above the long-term average, making last month the hottest June in records going back to 1891, JMA said, citing preliminary figures.
If June is the hottest month, it would add to the warmest May and the equal warmest April, increasing the likelihood that 2014 will top 2005 and 2010 as the warmest year on record.
The fact the El Nino-like conditions in the ocean are waiting for the atmosphere to respond is one reason for the recent warmth.
The release of ''stored heat is helping to warm up the global atmosphere'', Andrew Watkins, manager of Climate Prediction Services at the Bureau of Meteorology, said. "It's not unexpected that these months have been so warm given the amount of heat that must have come out of the Pacific."
Meteorologists are also watching the Indian Ocean, where warmer-than-usual conditions in the east are helping to stall the development of an El Nino. One benefit of unusual warmth in this region is that moisture is streaming over the Australian continent, bringing much needed rain to south-eastern parts.
Central western and south-western NSW had their best rains this week in three months and more is on the way, according to Weatherzone.
Sydney, though, will probably see another week of above-average maximum temperatures and little rain – continuing a trend of the past month and longer.
Friday will be the coolest day, with a maximum of 17 degrees, but other days should have tops of 18-21 out to next Wednesday, the bureau said.
'On its way'
Max Gonzalez, a senior meteorologist at Weatherzone said that while some Pacific waters had cooled off lately, sub-surface temperatures were as much as 3 degrees warmer than normal in parts of the centre and east.
"The strength of the event may not be as strong as we are thinking a couple of months ago but an El Nino is still on its way," Mr Gonzalez said.
The bureau's Dr Watkins said computer modelling suggested an El Nino effect is still likely, although not until later in the year than earlier thought.
A bout of westerly winds a fortnight ago hinted at the atmosphere coupling with the ocean to reverse the trade winds and reinforce El Nino conditions, but things then settled back to normal.
"It's starting to pick up a little bit again," Dr Watkins said, with meteorologists studying the persistence of weakening of the trade winds. "We're still in that waiting phase" to see whether the event is a short one or more prolonged.

Ramos handed five-match ban
Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has been banned for five games for verbally abusing referee Miguel Angel Ayza Gomez during Madrid's 4-0 Copa del Rey win over Celta Vigo at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday night.
The Spanish league's disciplinary committee reached the decision on Thursday afternoon, after turning down Madrid's appeal against the first yellow card shown to the defender in the Celta game. Ramos will now miss his team's Primera Division games against Osasuna, Valencia and Getafe, as well as both Copa del Rey quarter-final ties against Valencia.
Ramos reacted angrily when he picked up his second booking for a dangerous challenge on Celta's Augusto Fernandez with 20 minutes of the game remaining, and the referee's report filed by Ayza Gomez after the game reportedly said Ramos directed foul language at the officials, while accusing them of being biased against Madrid.
"As soon as he was shown the second yellow card Real Madrid's number four, Sergio Ramos Garcia, addressed my person in the following terms: 'You are a shameless scoundrel (sinverguenza),' repeating that phrase three times and saying 'you have spent the whole f**ing day f***ing us', repeating that phrase twice," the report said. "Later, when he arrived at the bench, he addressed the assistant referee in the following terms: 'Always the same, what shameless scoundrels you are', repeating this phrase twice."
According to article 94 of the Spanish league's disciplinary code "insulting, offending or showing an offensive attitude towards the referee... is punishable by a suspension of between four and 12 games". Adding the automatic one-game ban for the red card, that would appear to mean Ramos faces at least five games out - three in La Liga against Osasuna, Getafe and Valencia, and both Copa del Rey quarter-final legs against Valencia.
The Spanish authorities have taken a noticeably more serious approach to such offences this season, with a recent precedent being the four-game suspension given to Espanyol forward Sergio Garcia for using the same word ('sinverguenza') towards referee Carlos del Cerro Grande in a Primera Division game against Osasuna. Ramos' offence was found to be similarly grave, with the fifth game of his ban being the automatic suspension for the initial red card.
Speaking directly after the game the Spain international told reporters that he felt the sending off had been unfair and could have cost Madrid the game.
"It was not a challenge for a second card," Ramos said. "I will not comment on the referee, because it is more of the same. I am leaving very annoyed, because the tie was in the balance and things like this happen. To see what happened you can watch the television."
Possibly realising he was in trouble, Ramos later used his personal Twitter account to apologise for his actions.
"I regret the incident with the ref, these are moments of tension produced by my sending off," he tweeted. "We say things that afterwards we are sorry for."
However, he later tweeted that the referee should also be punished for his role in the incident.
"Independently of whether I think it (the punishment) is fair or not, I want to apologise to the coaching staff, my colleagues and the fans," Ramos tweeted.
"I hope that it will be equal in fairness and justice with those given to referees."
Former Sevilla defender Ramos was already the most sent-off player in Madrid's history, and has now picked up 15 red cards in his seven and a half seasons at the Bernabeu.

Well in preperation for my signup activation I've read through the gear tutorials and there is one thing that bothers me about this autokeen thingy.
Basically comics need to be in YYYYMMDD.png format for it to work, so what can I do if I want multiple comics released on the same day - but not all on one page.
Any easy way to do this? Or am i just gonna have to do everything manually?

Posts Tagged alan thicke
Posted by dan in Um what now? on March 16, 2010
I was talking with my friend the other day about Alan Thicke, and she remarked he doesn't look like he's aged a day. Some people might think it's abnormal to still be talking about Alan Thicke in 2010. Some people might think it's even stranger to have enough interest to google-image-search Alan Thicke to see if he has indeed aged well. And then blog about it. To hell with all those people.
But even though I am clearly very open and accepting of people who have an abnormal marked interest in Alan Thicke, I was still very surprised to find this image, of what must have been the LEAST SELLINGEST ISSUE OF PLAYGIRL MAGAZINE, EVER.
Playgirl Coverboy Alan Thicke? And a little Mick Jagger to boot? Even in the 80′s this couldn't have been a good idea. Half off, indeed.

Questionable Statements
"Radeons from HD 2xxx to HD 6xxx ... (for example, powersaving is still in a testing phase)."
I do believe this is now functional, from using my HD6770 with power_profile and the featureMatrix represented on X.org. Any objections to removal? T1nk3r3r (talk) 18:22, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
Is there any offical release note /commit log about powersaving support exit testing phase ?-- Fengchao (talk) 09:31, 7 February 2013 (UTC) Excellent point. I think I can investigate that later today. Although the table on X.org showed most features functional across the board. This may have happened months ago.T1nk3r3r (talk) 19:03, 7 February 2013 (UTC) I don't have time to cherry-pick through the commit logs. I skimmed through 2012. However, this page shows the options for powersaving, and the table clearly shows functions are complete for all but the oldest cards. On the flip side, where is the reference proving the original statement?T1nk3r3r (talk) 20:57, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
KMS -- do we have to do anything at all to enable it?
The KMS sections says it's on by default, should we even have to put radeon in MODULES any longer? If not, the intro to that section should probably mention that "you can skip the rest of this section if 'dmesg|grep modesetting' shows 'radeon kernel modesetting enabled'.
- (rc.conf/MODULES are deprecated with systemd) Thinking about it, I don't explicitly recall having to enable it for the default ARCH kernel. The late start section may indeed be rendered redunant. Can anyone confirm this on a fresh install? T1nk3r3r (talk) 18:45, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
- From this page, it is stated that the current behavior is to autodetect. So as long as the module is available and the hardware is there, it will load without intervention. It only remains to be stated when this started -- for now we can simply say: currently. Leave a link to xorg? T1nk3r3r (talk) 21:06, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
KMS Early
I don't know how others feel about this, but my preferred setup is to put options radeon modeset=1 in modprobe.conf and then to include modprobe.con along with the radeon module in mkinitcpio.conf. This way KMS is enabled once for both early and late start. Also, in the event of problems, radeon.modeset=1 can still be added as a kernel option to the bootloader. --piezoelectric
- The bigger question here is: How early is Early? If I'm not mistaken: boot options come first, then initramfs, then modprobe.conf once the final root filesystem is mounted. If it is enabled at boot, any other toggles may be rendered pointless. This may only be applicable if firmware needs to be compiled into the kernel (newer cards). On the other hand, see parent section here. T1nk3r3r (talk) 18:45, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
Enabling video acceleration
~/.bashrc is the wrong place for setting this environment variables. This file is not consulted when starting i.e. firefox from the gnome shell. As it is a hardware dependent setting that is reasonable for every user on this box, i created a file in /etc/profile.d/ to accomplish this.
Setting this variables makes a difference when using flashplayer for youtube videos. When set, flashplayer reports accelerated rendering enabled at home with my ati hd3200 onboard graphics and rendering is faster in full screen mode.
It works now no more worse than under windows.
Radeon vs. Catalyst
- Catalyst
The ATI and Catalyst pages state that Catalyst performs better for 3D. As most of you may have experienced, the Catalyst driver is clunky and very badly optimized for Linux. Gaming performance is usually worse than on Windows. Catalyst and Nvidia drivers do not uses Unix interfaces properly (Linux kernel and Xorg), a big part of it is just a bunch of hacks. See what the nouveau folks think. It's probably a matter of syncing development between different platforms, so adapting the driver as less as possible from Windows is probably more profitable. The lack of respect for interfaces has one major issue: the compatibility with Xorg and Kernels is extremely fragile. Besides, a lot of features or simply not reliable (or at least a real pain to setup) with these drivers, such as dual head / external output, custom kernels, hibernation...
It would be a great relief for the Unix communities to finally have a free, full-featured and top class 3D graphic driver.
- Radeon
AMD did a very good thing when they decided to release the specs of their cards. FOSS radeon driver is now lightyears beyond nouveau in term of OpenGL implementation. The FOSS radeon driver seems like the ideal future of Unix graphics to me.
Since version 9.0.* from late 2012 and January 2013, OpenGL implementation has moved several steps forward as you can see on the feature matrix. In fact, I've tested several games (native or Wine) and radeon performs much better than catalyst most of the times.
For performance and Unix-frendliness, I suggest we should encourage Unix users to choose radeon over catalyst. Too many people are held up in their switching-to-Unix because of the terrible, infamous catalyst, even if all they need is average 3D graphics.
Since this revolution is brand new, it requires support from the community. We also need concrete data that states the progress, the support and the performance of radeon compared to catalyst.
I suggest we create a benchmark page for that. Should we create a new page? I'll begin it below for now, but we shall move it in the future.
--Ambrevar (talk) 12:07, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
- A benchmark page could be informative, especially for newcomers that are having a difficult time making up their minds. AMD is actually shifting support from Catalyst to radeon drivers. They had hired two bodies to work on the radeon driver. But then I came across this: http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/AMD-dismisses-numerous-open-source-developers-1745131.html
- I just found this: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/02/05/amd_open_source_hd_8000_drivers/print.html
- Regardless, there has been a lot of headway in the last four years. I recently tested some games on vanilla Wine and performance was considerable.
- When I came to Arch, I was using Catalyst. I was a pain to setup and maintain. I was since persuaded by a Wine developer to switch to the radeon driver, as it is much easier to debug and submit patches upstream for either Wine or Radeon. Not to mention Catalyst only ever "officially" supported Ubuntu, SUSE, and RedHat.
- Drop a line to the Catalyst talk page? T1nk3r3r (talk) 17:27, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
- I think the message in the introduction is clear: If unsure, try the open source driver first, it will suit most needs and is generally less problematic. -- 09:37, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
- Sure, but the previous paragraph clearly tells 'if you want 3D performance, go for Catalyst', which is not very true anymore. --Ambrevar (talk) 09:43, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
- I think the message in the introduction is clear: If unsure, try the open source driver first, it will suit most needs and is generally less problematic. -- 09:37, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
To be continued.
Worth to mention that the powersaving is related to overheating issues. With the default powersaving off my laptop's graphic card, Mobility Radeon HD 4650, overheating causing the system to shutdown. Changing the setting to mid solved this issue.Dhead (talk) 12:37, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

We solidify the identities of brands and companies by crafting polished, modern and valuable visual identities. .Frank Scott: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?. Yuta Takahashi : We established Polka's refined, urban impression through the logotype, and represented the cuteness and curiosity of young women (the main user demographic) through an original dot pattern. There may seem to be a small divide between the keywords of "cuteness and urbanity" and "fun and refinement", but we thought it was possible to craft an original identity by cleverly mixing those things together. .Frank Scott: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration?. Yuta Takahashi : By used of polka dot that is the origin of the name of Polka, we produced the logotype that is full of modernity and joy. Then, by extracting the dots, we designed the original pattern of random arrangement of large and small four dots. It expresses the interests, pioneering spirit, passions, funs, the claims of individuality of Polka. .Frank Scott: Is your design being produced or used by another company, or do you plan to sell or lease the production rights or do you intent to produce your work yourself?. Yuta Takahashi : We demand a strict mathematical approach when it comes to design. This makes it possible to replicate our designs, with no need for designers to put their personal input into the piece, and no part of the design coming to fruition by chance. Our designs are managed mathematically, making it possible for them to be replicated whenever, wherever. .Frank Scott: Which design tools did you use when you were working on this project?. Yuta Takahashi : Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop .Frank Scott: Is your design influenced by data or analytical research in any way? What kind of research did you conduct for making this design?. Yuta Takahashi : In addition to relevant business conditions, we have also begun a wide-ranging and random investigation of user images and impressions, or feelings, of various businesses. We have clarified positions of existing companies and brands from marketplace experience, and have researched what kind of visual language is considered necessary for Polka based on these foundations. .
