Congratulations Apple, you've distracted press and pundits alike from wondering why you don't have a successor to the iPhone.
But the diversion of a $1,000 iPhone won't last forever.
iPhone X review: Camera tricks, swiping up -- and that OLED
Apple is an oddity. It's a company that's doing remarkably well, but over the past ten years it hasn't had a product that comes close to replacing the iPhone as its cash cow, which means that it has to find ever more inventive ways to make a smartphone feel new, different, or at least a little exciting.
Apple has convinced us that a better screen, a better camera, and a different way to unlock the device packaged into a different form factor is new.
And don't get me wrong, the iPhone X is both bold and clever, but that boldness and cleverness is mostly down to marketing. I mean come on, Apple is pretty unique in being able to push gimmicky features such as Animojis or a new ringtone and not look like it's scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas.
And the pent-up demand for the iPhone X proves my point. I've heard from people who haven't upgraded for years who are interested in the iPhone X for the simple reason that it's a little different and a little more exciting.
And they're willing to pay $1,000+ for something that's a little different and a little better. And let's be honest, that $1,000+ price tag is the most revolutionary thing about the iPhone (and you Android fans can stop sniggering, because that'll be the price tag slapped onto premium Android handsets by mid-2018).
The Apple products you shouldn't buy (and... SEE FULL GALLERY
But the deed is now done. Apple has done what it did with the iPad line and added a new tier to the lineup. And while I'm sure that Apple will sell millions of iPhone X handsets -- although the silence from Apple over pre-order boasts feels odd if sales were strong -- it still doesn't take away from the problems facing Apple.
Indulge me while I list a few:
Overall interest in the iPhone is waning
Upgrade cycles are getting longer
iPad sales are weak
Microsoft is schooling it on what the MacBook should be
Apple Watch sales are not good enough to disclose
The only segments of Apple's business that are growing are related to services and its "other products" category (what's worse is that of those two segments, services -- iTunes, apps, content, and such -- is the only area showing significant growth)
Now, it's likely that the iPhone X and iPhone 8 will explode hardware growth, but this is far from a long-term solution, because:
It's a short-term gain that will trail off as time passes
It makes Apple even more reliant on the iPhone
There's nothing new on the horizon that is going to pick up the slack
The fact that Apple hasn't launched a groundbreaking new product since the company has been under the leadership of current CEO Tim Cook hasn't escaped me. While Cook has been a good caretaker at Apple, and done an admirable job of maximizing revenue from existing products (especially the iPhone, but also the iPad and Mac), it's still not clear whether he has what it takes to break new ground. The Apple Watch remains little more than an accessory (although a rather nice one), and beyond that Apple it reported to have tinkered with, before abandoning, the idea of getting into transportation.
I still hold hope that Apple has some exciting new class of products in the pipeline somewhere, stuff that we didn't know we needed until the moment we saw it in Tim Cook's hands, but that hope is fading fast.
It sure feels like Apple has become a company pretty much focused on making hay while the iPhone sales shine.

Donald Trump acts like an arrogant fool on Feherty
It's not an everyday thing for Golf Channel to air political programming, but they recently aired an interview of presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. The interview was conducted by former professional golfer and Golf Channel/NBC on-course golf announcer David Feherty (last name pronounced FAIR-et-ee) for the interview show Feherty.
I watched the interview so you didn't have to, and let's just say that, if one were to judge someone by how they act around people that they like (Feherty wore Trump socks while interviewing Trump), let's just say that Trump is an arrogant fool, because that's how he acted around Feherty.
When Trump was asked by Feherty how his presidential bid was doing, Trump touted favorable poll numbers and claimed that he hadn't spent any money on his campaign yet (in reality, he's spent nearly $62 million on his campaign so far). When Trump was asked by Feherty whether or not he thought of himself as an asshole, Trump touted favorable poll numbers. When Feherty listed a number of adjectives that me and other critics of Trump use on a regular basis to criticize him, Trump responded by saying, "but other than that, they like me." Trump even went as far as to call his real estate properties "presidential".
Oh, and Trump made a shockingly offensive statement during the interview. Trump said that racial profiling was "necessary". Racial profiling is, in the 21st century, very common in America, and it contributes to racial tensions in America in a big way. Racism and racial profiling is never necessary, and it is always inappropriate.
Even when he's around people that he likes, Donald Trump is an arrogant fool who only cares about himself and his ego.

My thoughts about the first Democratic presidential debate
Having watched last night's Democratic presidential debate, I'll begin by saying that I believe that Bernie Sanders won the debate, with Martin O'Malley having the second-best performance, followed by Hillary Clinton, Jim Webb, and Lincoln Chafee.
My thoughts about Bernie Sanders's performance
The Good – He upstaged Hillary Clinton on an issue directly affecting HRC (the private email server "scandal" that has been concocted by the GOP). He also defended himself very well, especially on gun safety and on the Veterans' Affairs health system scandal.
The Bad – He mentioned his campaign website twice during the debate.
My thoughts about Martin O'Malley's performance
The Good – He came across as the strongest candidate on gun safety, invoking the story of a family who lost one of their own in the Aurora, Colorado theater massacre.
The Bad – He tried to defend his zero-tolerance policing policy from his tenure as Mayor of Baltimore, Maryland, which was one of several factors that have led to distrust between the police and the public in Baltimore.
My thoughts about Hillary Clinton's performance
The Good – She came across as very professional during the debate without coming across as scripted or boring. She also cracked a joke at a very inappropriate remark from lead moderator Anderson Cooper about her bathroom usage.
The Bad – She twice invoked the fact that she's a woman during the debate. She also gave weak answers on a number of issues, most notably marijuana legalization and financial regulation.
My thoughts about Jim Webb's performance
The Good – He used his wife's story on immigration very well.
The Bad – He used the NRA's talking points on guns.
My thoughts about Lincoln Chafee's performance
The Good – Nothing about his debate performance was especially good.
The Bad – He blamed his father's death on his vote for the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in the late 1990's. Furthermore, he made an odd remark comparing himself to a block of granite at one point in the debate.
The big winners (other than the five Democratic presidential candidates debating)
The Democratic Party – All in all, the debate was a great showing that Democrats can have an intelligent, civil discussion about actual political issues between candidates representing various factions of the party.
Civic engagement – CNN's telecast of the debate received the most viewers of any Democratic presidential primary/caucus debate in television history.
The internet – For the first time since the 1960 presidential general election debates, there appears to be a major disconnect between two media platforms on debate performance. In 1960, it was between radio (whose listeners viewed Richard Nixon as the debate winner) and television (whose viewers viewed John F. Kennedy as the debate winner). This time, it's between television (which has been trying to spin a Hillary Clinton debate victory) and the internet (most people on social media view Bernie Sanders as the debate victor). I'd expect the newer platform (in this case, the internet) to come out on top.
The big losers (other than the five Democratic presidential candidates debating)
Anderson Cooper – Cooper, CNN's lead moderator for the debate, tried to use his position to smear Bernie Sanders on a number of GOP talking points against him and failed, and he also made a very inappropriate remark about Hillary Clinton's bathroom usage after one of the commercial breaks.
The mainstream media – See my remarks about the internet being a big winner above.
Mike Huckabee – Huckabee, one of many Republican presidential candidates, took to Twitter during the debate and made downright racist remarks about Korean people while attacking Bernie Sanders.
Joe Biden – With Hillary Clinton giving a strong enough debate performance to calm down those in the establishment who were fretting about Hillary, and Bernie Sanders solidifying the progressive base of the party, there's not really a path to victory for Biden if he were to enter the race for the Democratic nomination.
Debate fairness – CNN shut out Lawrence Lessig from participating in the debate despite the fact that Lessig is a Democratic candidate for president.

My 100% honest thoughts about the new Windows 10
AUTHOR'S NOTE: The author upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Features on Windows 10 may vary from computer to computer.
For nearly a week, I've been using the new Windows 10 PC operating system on my laptop computer, having recently upgraded from Windows 7.
Is the Windows 10 perfect? No, as it's virtually impossible for any computer operating system to be truly perfect. However, it's a good operating system, and I'm going to give my 100% honest thoughts about it.
I initially had quite a bit of trouble getting the Windows 10 upgrade program to work, as it wouldn't fully initialize for some reason. However, a day or two after the July 29 release date, I finally got the upgrade program to initialize.
Once the upgrade program initialized, it didn't take as long as I thought it would for me to install Windows 10, only taking me about 40 minutes or so (I expected it would take 2 hours or more).
FAVORABLE ASPECTS
I find the Windows 10 operating system to be, in general, very functional. There are many apps that I find to be very useful (although app quality varies wildly from one app to the next), and I also like the new start menu design.
Me using the web note feature on the Microsoft Edge web browser to autograph the front page of this blog! (Captured July 30, 2015)
The new Microsoft Edge web browser that comes with Windows 10 is far better and easier to use than the old Internet Explorer browser that came with previous Windows versions.
Having upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, the apps that I installed on Windows 7, but not all of the ones that came with Windows 7, still work on Windows 10, so Windows 10 has at least some level of backwards compatibility.
The Windows Store feature is fantastic, including clearly displaying whether or not a particular app is free (I only download apps that are free to download on my computer).
The notification sidebar works great (including notifying me of new emails), and, if the new notification sound gets annoying for me, I can turn on quiet hours to get the computer to stop playing sounds every time there's a new notification.
Starting up and shutting down the computer is somewhat quicker for me on Windows 10 than on Windows 7. This is especially the case in regards to shutting down the computer.
UNFAVORABLE ASPECTS
When Windows 10 starts up, it brings up the lock screen instead of the login page (for me to use Windows 10, I have to enter my Microsoft Account password). In order to bring up the login page, I have to use the mouse or touchpad (I have a touchpad on my laptop itself, and I also use a USB wireless mouse) and drag the lock screen upwards to get to the login page. Obviously, I would prefer that the login page be the first thing that comes up at startup instead of the lock screen.
I've had minor issues with some apps on Windows 10, most notably needing to use the Ctrl+V keyboard command for pasting text to where I write blog posts on this WordPress-based blog on Microsoft Edge and having syncing problems on the Mail app.
The Cortana intelligent personal assistant feature isn't all that great, mostly serving as a voice web search for me. For example, when I ask Cortana to do a unit conversion of some kind (miles to kilometers, etc.), instead of bringing up the Calculator app (which, in Windows 10, is fantastic and includes a great unit conversion feature), it brings up a Bing search, and Bing is absolutely awful when it comes to unit conversions.
Asphalt 8: Airborne – This arcade automobile racing game is absolutely fantastic, with great graphics and several different types of racing (such as regular races, drifting, elimination, infected racing). Unlike a lot of racing games, Asphalt 8 works great with a keyboard. While Asphalt 8 is free to download, and much of the game can be played for free, some items in the game require money to be unlocked.
Microsoft Solitaire Collection – This card game is actually five games in one, as it has five different forms of solitaire: Klondike (regular solitaire), FreeCell, Spider, Pyramid, and TriPeaks. Again, there are some features of this game that require payment, although the game is free to download, and many features of the game are free.
My drawing of a curling sheet on Microsoft Fresh Paint.
Fresh Paint – Unlike the traditional MS Paint, which is included in Windows 10 (at least on my computer), Fresh Paint is designed to simulate painting artwork on canvas, without the mess of actually painting artwork on canvas, and it does a very good job at that. You can save pictures as JPG or PNG files, so, if you want to send someone who uses an older version of Windows a Fresh Paint picture, they can view the picture you sent them, although they can't use Fresh Paint themselves. There are some features that require payment, but the download is free, and the core features of the app are free.
Character Map – In addition to the old MS Character Map (which is still available on my computer), there's also a character map app produced by Motile Bytes. The Motile Bytes-produced Character Map has a couple of different features that make it better than the old MS Character Map: First, it allows you to create a list of favorite characters (which works best if there are characters that aren't on your keyboard, but you commonly use for whatever reason). Second, it looks snazzier than the old Windows Character Map. This app is absolutely, 100% free!
I've enjoyed working with Windows 10 in my first few days with the new operating system. On a scale of -10 (worst) to +10 (best, I'll give Windows 10 a +7.

There are a lot of luxury startups these days and the jet charter industry has recently seen a lot of "disruption" in the past decade. Ten years ago you'd scoff at the idea of chartering a jet on your phone, sending your credit card information willy nilly to some company. A lot has changed and the convenience and ease of the mobile app world has made luxury travel pretty splendid.
What seemed to be a luxury startup on the move back in 2012 with some "celebrity" startup capital being touted in the initial PR pitches. I would have been happy with some of the coverage up until they unfortunately had some bad press which seemed to sting a little.
Despite their bad and good press I wanted to take a look at a few areas this brand was severely hurting. I don't want to come off as mean, but in this day and age of talking the talk you've got to look the part. While they had some celebrity backing buzz surrounding their name, the overall brand feel seemed to fall flat.
The main focus of BlackJet was their mobile app which made it easy to find empty leg flights, charter your own jet and so forth. It was supposed to be the "Uber of private jets" and while it did work for a while, problems arose and users didn't flock to the platform.
First impressions are key and I will say their mobile app was pretty slick and the branding was spot on. Jumping over to their website and you were left with an odd feeling. It didn't quite match up to the slick UX their mobile app had. Not only that, but that lack of branding bled into their social media channels and we'll get into that a bit as well.
Again, I'm not trying to be mean but rather learn from others mistakes.
When you have competition like JetSmarter and Victor who have excellent branding and marketing strategies in play, it's hard to compete when you don't look the part. Sadly they really skimped on their website experience and it doesn't have a luxury feel at all.
There's not a whole lot of information on here either including who's at the company, any form of content marketing and no social media integration. Again, talking about JetSmarter you'll see their website experience is elegant, luxurious and modern. It has company information, tons of blog content, press coverage and useful information on using their service. It's a whole other level they're on and from this alone I could see why users wouldn't bother going the BlackJet route.
Secondly, there was no video efforts made or at the very least a commercial. The competition was making heavy use of video marketing and in this day and age it's a sin not to. Attention span's are little and visual content goes a long way in branding so why they didn't start out with it boggles the mind.
Facebook updates and interaction was pretty much nil and it all felt inorganic, uninspired and there's no passion bleeding out anywhere. I want to feel apart of the brand and have some fun instead of dry business related updates only. While some may read that and think, the whole point is to make sales. While that's true, this however is a lifestyle brand and requires a different kind of marketing.
First of all, the cover photo is grainy and a very poor resolution. The graphics they had done are just plain amateur hour and I imagine they tried to save a lot in marketing costs pushing this to market. The updates are also just automatically posted via the Mailchimp API which means they haven't been edited. There is no post picture with their updates and it leads directly to a dry newsletter. There's no lead capture in place either so they were missing out huge on capturing UHNW & HNW clients.
Sadly these are the basics and when missed can really make your brand looks a bit soggy. They also didn't at all utilize their star power as some of the backers have quite the mouthpieces and personal networks. It's too bad those weren't tapped into.
Keep in mind they were jumping into a new area of the charter industry and someone had to get their hands dirty. I wouldn't doubt that some of the founders are planning for a relaunch with all they've learned in the past few years. I'd love to hear your thoughts below as well so please comment away or come join us in the luxury marketing forums on LinkedIn.
If you'd like to change the way your aviation company looks and acts then please get in touch with us about our jet charter marketing services.

"Huh?" responded Mr. Hampton, entirely unconscious of her remark, as he was immersed in the stock reports.
"What do you mean?" asked Mrs. Hampton, looking puzzled.
On reaching the department store, Mr. Hampton walked boldly in. His very soul was imbued with the masculine determination of doing up his errand in short order.
"Dress patterns," he said, sternly, to the young woman at the first counter he encountered.
"Third floor," she responded, with a haughty waggle of her pompadoured head.
Seeing a staircase in the distance, Mr. Hampton made for it, and laboriously climbed three flights of stairs. As his wife had implied, he did resemble the cook in the matter of avoidupois, and the three flights were by no means flights of fancy.
"Dress patterns," he said again, but his lack of available lung-power made his tone supplicatory rather than dignified.
"Floor below," remarked the person addressed.
"She told me the third floor," declared Mr. Hampton, irately.
It was hard after climbing an unnecessary flight to have the fact thus rubbed in, but Mr. Hampton said nothing, as he had no breath to waste in futile speech, and, turning, he started down-stairs again.
"Why don't you use the elevator, sir?" he heard murmured respectfully over his shoulder. But a further realization of his own stupidity roused his ire and his mendacity.
"I prefer this," he flung back, and tramped on down the long flight.
Now he was really on the third floor: and, though he could see only counters piled with blankets and comfortables, he inquired of a dapper young man behind one of the counters where he might find dress patterns.
"I don't know, really, was the answer; you should ask the floor-walker."
Now Mr. Hampton had known this well enough: what he didn't know was, why he hadn't acted upon his own knowledge.
He began to stalk the floor-walker, and to his surprise found that animal more elusive than a deer. As he would approach one, it would whip around into another aisle and out of sight: or it would begin a conversation with some ladies, which Mr. Hampton was not rude enough to interrupt: or, in many aisles, it wouldn't be there at all.
"Certainly, sir: six aisles over and four aisles down on the avenue side." The floor-walker turned away, as one who considers the incident closed, and Mr. Hampton started. Useless to detail his devious wanderings, his repeated inquiries, his variegated answers, his growing bewilderment and his rising temper.
But Mr. Hampton could see only an upright lot of pigeonholes, something like a village post-office, with a very citified-looking postmistress in charge.
"Or my grandmother!" broke in John Hampton. "I don't want a pattern at all, if you'll kindly give me a chance to say so. That is, I want a dress pattern—not a pattern of a dress!"
With a curt bow of acknowledgment, John Hampton strolled across the floor to the elevator.
"Going up," said the boy; but, unaccustomed to departmental regulations, Mr. Hampton stepped in. As a result he went up to the fifteenth story, and down again, pausing at nearly every floor. His temper rose by regular instalments on the upward trip: but, descending, it calmed down again, for he had time to realize that no one had been to blame but himself.
"I suppose I ought to have said dress patterns made of dry-goods, in the first place," he admitted to himself, which proved what a wise and inst man John Hampton was.
It was not entirely a path of roses that led to the dry-goods counter, nor was it without difficulty that he finally brought up at the particular division where cotton goods were sold. The array was bewildering. Here were patterns blue enough to suit any short, fat, and blond person. His spirits rose; and it was with something of his original hauteur that he said, "A dress pattern, please," secure in the conviction that he would not here he offered tissue paper.
Buoyed up by hope, and not daring to look at his watch, John Hampton started on what he fondly hoped was his last tack.
He neared, as he followed instructions, counters piled with rich and handsome materials, and he wondered if the low~priced stuff he was in search of would be forthcoming.
"Dress patterns—in boxes?" he asked of a specially dapper floor-walker.
"Certainly, sir: right here, sir," and a grandiloquent wave of the hand indicated Mr. Hampton's haven at last.
The obliging clerk took down several large, flat boxes. With a flourish he threw off the covers, and exposed to view daintily folded and exquisitely embroidered fabrics in varying shades of pale blue.
The man's attitude was only slightly surprised, for he well knew to what lengths fashionable people must go to retain their cooks' services.
"Is that the only way you can keep your cook—to box her?" inquired the young man, interestedly.
But John Hampton had once more sought the floor-walker.
"Will you kindly conduct me to the head of this department?" he said, in tones of deadly desperation.
"He's—he's in his office," stammered the floor-walker, who had little liking for this distracted customer.
With real determination, it is not difficult to see heads of departments, and soon John Hampton was face to face with the object of his quest.
"What can I do for you?" inquired the object, kindly.

Q: Non-Generic Contravariance Say I have these two interfaces
public interface A
{

}

public interface B
{
   A a {get;}
}

And these two concrete Types
public class ConcreteA : A
{
}

public class ConcreteB : B
{
   public ConcreteA a {get;}
}

This does not compile because Interface B is expecting an interface A instead of a ConcreteA.
Currently I'm auto generating code with interfaces, and I ran into this senario.  Instead of Modifying all of my models to implement and Explicit interface definition in which would return the interface version of my concrete class, I would like to do this using some version of covariance, but I'm not sure if there is a way to do this or if this is a limitation of C#.

*

*Is there an interface way version of contravariance that would allow me to do this?
1.1 If there isn't is there an explicit reason why this isn't implement, or is there a senario in which would be problematic if this was implement?

A: You'll have to make it generic for this to work
public interface B<T> where T : A
{
   T a {get; set;}
}

public class ConcreteA : A
{
}

public class ConcreteB : B<ConcreateA>
{
   public ConcreteA a {get; set;}
}

That's because
B b = new ConcreteB();
b.a = AnythingThatImplementsA;

would not be able to force you to only set it to something that is ConcreteA otherwise.

Happy Birthday: Weinstein Turns 68, Moved to State Prison
Michael R. Sisak and Tom Hays
Harvey Weinstein was transferred to a state prison in New York on Wednesday as he begins to serve a 23-year sentence for rape and sexual assault in his landmark #MeToo case.
The disgraced film mogul, who will turn 68 on Thursday, is locked up at the maximum security Wende Correctional Facility near Buffalo, according to state prison officials. He is known behind bars as inmate No. 20B0584.
The prison, six hours by car from Manhattan, is likely just a temporary stop for Weinstein. While he's there, he'll be evaluated to determine which state prison facility meets his security, medical, mental health and other needs.
Weinstein's spokesman called the move "harsh."
Weinstein, convicted Feb. 24 and sentenced last week, had been splitting time between New York City's notorious Rikers Island jail complex and a Manhattan hospital.
Weinstein left court in an ambulance after the guilty verdict and detoured to Bellevue Hospital, complaining of chest pains and high blood pressure. He later had a stent inserted to unblock an artery. After his sentencing, he returned with more chest pains.
Weinstein, the Oscar-winning producer of "Shakespeare in Love," was convicted of raping an aspiring actress in 2013 and forcibly performing oral sex on a TV and film production assistant in 2006. His lawyers have said they'll appeal.
Within hours of Weinstein's sentencing, prosecutors in Los Angeles announced they were beginning the extradition process to send him there for an arraignment on charges he raped a woman and sexually assaulted another in 2013. That's now on hold because of the coronavirus crisis that has shuttered courthouses and limited travel.
For Weinstein, being sent to the Buffalo-area prison is an inauspicious homecoming. He attended college nearby and got his start in the entertainment business in the area as a concert promoter bringing the likes of Frank Sinatra and the Rolling Stones to town.
This story has been corrected to show Harvey Weinstein's birthday is Thursday, not Wednesday.

Basic Overclocking question
Moderator: The Mod Squad
syrianrue
Post subject: Basic Overclocking question
I'm about to build a new computer..and i've never overclocked a system before. was wondering if anyone could talk about the pros and cons of over-clocking?
obviously, the pros is that the performance is maximized. but what about the cons? how does someone know how much to overclock? the limit of the system before overclocking becomes an issue.. overheating, etc.
fussnfeathers
Mobo-fu Master
Pros? Bragging rights and an extra kick out of a cheaper processor.
Cons? Excessive heat, voltages the processor wasn't designed to handle, instabilitly, shortened lifespan......I could add a dozen more to that list.
Let me explain a few things. Processors are made in batches, on one die. Ever seen those big, round pieces of shiny silicon? That's a couple of hundred cores. Not all of them are capable of running at the same speed. You'll have some that can run stably at 2.66ghz, some that can only run at 2.1ghz, and a very few that can run at 3.6ghz. There's no fundamental difference between, say, Lynnfield cores in Intel chips, other than the fact some of them can blaze right along, others can't. The slower ones are locked down and sold for cheaper prices to maximize dollar to manufacturing. AMD goes by bins, Intel does things a bit more precisely, but not much more. If you've taken the time to read up on this, you'll see that hardcore overclockers aren't just buying one brand and model of processor, they're looking for very specific batch codes. Those have a reputation of coming from a batch that was clocked down due to the majority of the tested cores being capable of a slower speed, but had a good number of cores that could, indeed, run much faster. Other batch code processors are far less successful at overclocking, so they're not sought after. The actual "holy grail" of overclockable processors are engineering samples. I have one. I'll explain that in a sec.
Intel and AMD processors, both, are multiplier locked. Back in the old days of the P3, the multiplier was unlocked, meaning you could adjust the clock speed frequency to the FSB, speeding up the clock, without raising the FSB. That had the potential of taking a 600mhz processor and jacking it up to 900mhz, without much further tweaking, as long as the BIOS supported that adjustment. Since the P4, multipliers are locked, and cannot be adjusted manually. New processors can clock DOWN, as long as the processor supports SpeedStep (on Intel), effectively slowing the processor down under light usage for power and heat savings. That feature can be turned off, locking the processor at full speed at all times. I leave mine on, it'll throttle me back from 2.66ghz to around 1.2- 1.5, depending on usage, when doing light work like web surfing, text editing, stuff like that, then crank me back up when I fire up a game or my DAW software. Otherwise, you can't adjust them to actually make the processor run faster than the rated speed. The exceptions to this rule are AMD's Black edition processors, and Intel's Extreme procs. Those are unlocked, but you pay the price for that. Not cheap. Both manufacturers are going to give you the opportunity to go faster than the locked versions, but they're not going to sell them at the same (or cheaper) price.
Cooling is EXTREMELY important. Given that all you can do now is raise the FSB, you're forcing the processor to draw more power, heating it up faster, and run hotter. If you want any kind of stability, you need a high-quality aftermarket cooler. Stock Intel or AMD coolers will not work well beyond the stock speed. I'm sure you've seen guys running newer processors at records of 6.5ghz.......they're not using stock coolers, and they're not using air coolers. For the most part, they're not even using watercooling, they're using liquid nitrogen, TEC's, or even a combination of the two. Reports often gloss over that fact. It's vital to have the best cooling you possibly can. That's where the bragging rights come in. Sure, you got 6ghz out of a 2.66ghz proc, saving money over the Extreme Edition.......but you just dropped a grand on the cooling system to do that in the first place, and double the money on a motherboard even capable of going that far. You're not going to get a 1ghz overclock using a Corsair H50 $70 watercooler kit.
Motherboards play a big role, as well. Get a cheapie Biostar mATX, you're not going to get very high in speeds. Get a top-end Asus or Gigabyte, you'll go much farther, at approximately triple the cost. Along with the BIOS options for the processor, you need a board that can lock the PCI/PCIe (and AGP, back in the old days) buses to their stock speeds. Not a good idea to crank a 33mhz bus to 100mhz.......not if you want anything to work for very long.
RAM, as well. A-Data value RAM won't run stable past what its desiged for. It can't. That ties in with the FSB you'll raise to get that CPU speed. Raise the FSB, you speed up the RAM. High-quality, overclockable RAM is absolutely essential, or you're dead in the water before you even touch the processor speed.
PSU. Need a good one, and a powerful one. Don't even think about putting a bare minimum, low powered CoolMax or Sparkle in your PC, then crank the juice. That underpowered, cheaply built PSU will start wobbling all over the place under the power draw, if its even particulary stable to begin with, and you absolutely must have rock-solid voltages. No exceptions, no margins.
That's a lot, but pretty much covers it in a nutshell. Even with the best parts, you don't know how far that cheaper processor can go until you try. You could get lucky, and get the one core on that die that slipped through the inspection gap, but more likely you'll get one that can't get much more than a few hundred mhz above stock speed before throwing up on you. It's good to learn, and a neat subject to study, but if anybody tells you massive, eyeball burning overclocks are cheap, effective, and hey, ANYBODY can buy this processor and get a massive speed boost is smoking something reallllllllly good, and they're neglecting to tell you much of the added cost that totally negates the savings on that cheaper proc. Plus, the majority of overclockers push to the limits, see how fast it can go, for how long, without crashing, but very, very few leave them at that speed. They'll back down to a moderate overclock and run them that way, rather than burn out that lucky piece in a year.
How far you can go.......if you don't have good cooling, you'll reach thermal shutdown very quickly, the processor will just stop. Likwise, even if you have top-notch cooling, the processor won't thermally overload, but it'll blue screen on you, as it can't handle the data stream you're throwing at it. It's pretty easy to spot......you'll crash. Hard. A lot. Go up, slowly, at the smallest increments, and stress test. Stop when you blue screen, or your temps start going crazy, and back off to a safe level. That's your max, and you won't get any farther. You can sometimes raise core voltages and memory voltages to stabilize things, but if you plan on doing this on a new i5/i7 Intel, do NOT go above 1.65v, you'll blow the memory controller, destroying the processor. Tiny, tiny increments, not huge jumps. Little baby steps is the key, don't start ratcheting things up in gigantic bumps.
All that said........it's an absolute thrill when you do get the right proc, the right hardware combination, and a little bit of luck, and crank a CPU well beyond expectation stably.
Faster than the speed of snot
Two wrongs don't make it right, but I sleep pretty good at night

Is my Australorp a pullet?
Post subject: Is my Australorp a pullet?
My husband said that he heard my Australorp making strange noises. Is it possible that she is a cockerel? I was beginning to feel that I was safe and could stop studying her daily for rooster signs. She has such a small comb. Her tail feathers do curve over, but so do those on my egg-laying Orpingtons and I can't see any pointy hackle feathers. She is 16 weeks old. The Speckled Sussex beside her is supposed to be the same age but we got her when the Australorp was already 5 weeks and although she was smaller we were told she was 5 weeks too.
Should I be concerned? Please help.
Post subject: Re: Is my Australorp a pullet?
looks girlish to me (but I'm not an expert)!
Pretty birds. I think lady. But I'm new to chicken keeping.
Most definitely both are pullets, Australorp and speckled Sussex.
Thank you. What a relief!! They are both so sweet. I'm glad they'll be staying.


TORONTO – There are only four in the world.
And Todd MacCulloch is one, one of just four Canadian-born players in the NBA. So yesterday, after the Nets finished their morning workout in preparation for their game with the Raptors here, MacCulloch – the subject of a lengthy piece in the local paper ("Canada's own Todd MacCulloch") – local media types descended on the Net center as if he were Steve Nash, Rick Fox and Jamaal Magloire rolled into one.
MacCulloch has been the Nets' solution to a problem that has plagued them for years: an inside presence. No, he won't score like Shaq and he won't block shots like Mutombo, but he is reliable and usually dependable. He came up with the biggest play in recent days for the Nets when he blocked Steve Smith at the end of the triumph over the Spurs Monday. He is one of the five Nets averaging in double figures.
Last night, MacCulloch, a center on the rise, was matched against a future Hall of Famer, Hakeem Olajuwon, one of the members of the 50 Greatest All-Time Team but a player on the decline.
"Interesting," Byron Scott, whose Nets are home to the Rockets tonight, said of the MacCulloch-Olajuwon matchup. "You're talking about a Hall of Famer in Hakeem who's been in the league 18 years. He's been around a long time, he's slowed down some.
And so the Nets sought to unleash MacCulloch in transition. MacCulloch, at 7-0, 280, is not quite your average racehorse, but he does run the court well. Take Wednesday night: he beat none other than Michael Jordan back for one of the Nets' scores in their 43-18 first-quarter romp.
"A first. Probably a last," MacCulloch said of his transition victory over His Airness.
But the matter for last night was Hakeem.
"He's a very intelligent player, he probably reads the defensive post man better than anyone in his day and age, so he'll expose any weakness you have," MacCulloch, a Winnipeg native said of Olajuwon.


The tasty snacks of Taiwan is one of the most important things you can do on any Taiwan adventure. There are so many, that for sure you can eat your way around the island. Taiwanese snacks are usually simple and easy to do. Their use of spices make the flavor extremely appetizing. In Taiwan, the philosophy is "to eat small and to eat often." You will find these small eats on street coroners and in the open markets. In Taipei, you will find more than 20 streets dedicated to these small tasty snacks.
Such is the case with these deep-fried squid. Deep fried squid on a stick are amazingly delicious. They are so crunchy and good. Usually the smaller squid are used for this snack, often referred to as Calamari. The squid is washed , patted dry with a paper towel, and cut in rings. Then take one egg white and beat it. Add the Calamari and coat all the squid evenly. Next take a couple of cups of sweet potato flour(add sea salt, pepper, and chili powder if desired.) Dip each of the squid in the sweet potato flour. Drop in a pan of hot oil. As they come out hot, you can insert a stick if desired, or simply serve on a plate with a dipping sauce.
One of my favorite dipping sauces from Taiwan is so simple to make. Take lots of garlic, ginger, and chili peppers (cut very small) and lightly fry in a small amount of fresh peanut oil. Add balsamic vinegar and soy sauce to taste after the garlic, ginger, and chili peppers are done.
Such a simple snack to make and so delicious.
The aroma of the fresh cuttlefish grilling floats through the night markets of Taiwan. It is irresistible, drawing you in to the source. Such is the smell of fresh cuttlefish on the open grills. Tantalizing your senses while you search for the source of this smokey aroma. This snack is mouth-watering, tasty, and delicious.
One of the many places for getting grilled cuttlefish is Cijin Island. Cijin is just across the bay from Kaohsiung, Taiwan. You will find this tiny island extremely colorful and bustling with activity. Everyone does seem to be on a mission. There are many different snacks being sold. Everywhere you look there is food. Tasty snacks are being sold in the markets and on the street. The highlight of Cijin Island is the fish. There is every type of fish imaginable.
As you wander the side streets, the aroma of the fresh cuttlefish is unmistakable. It fills the air until you make your way to the correct street coroner. Anything with cuttlefish is amazing. Taiwan gets a lot of fresh fish and cuttlefish is a major catch. With grill stations everywhere on this island, cuttlefish can be found in every market. This is especially true of the south. A smoky aroma and cuttlefish with dark grill marks are everywhere.
During winter, the markets have a thick cuttlefish soup. The Taiwanese cook this soup with many herbs. The soup is delicious and has many of the local vegetables. One of the many blessings of this small island is the abundance of vegetables. Everything seems to grow in Taiwan. When it is cold in Taiwan, you will see this soup side by side with the grilled cuttlefish. What a delight on a cold and windy day.
The rule in Taiwan for stinky tofu…..the smellier the better! Stinky Tofu is found throughout the streets of China, but in Taiwan, it is everywhere. This is one of the most popular fermented snacks on the island. It assaults your sense of smell, but is so pleasing to the stomach. Stinky tofu is either hated or loved. There is no in-between!
This very odorous snack is a national obsession in Taiwan! Stinky tofu is prepared by soaking freshly made tofu in a brine made of fermented milk, fermented meat or fermented vegetables. It is not uncommon for a family to have a secret recipe that has been handed down from generation to generation. Recipes are usually kept very close to the heart. They are rarely divulged. Making the best stinky tofu can be a Taiwanese obsession. Just when you are sure you have found the best, you will taste another that surpasses the last. If you love Stinky Tofu, you will never get enough!
In Taiwan tomatoes are at all the markets on sticks. They are served as a sweet or light dessert. Tomatoes are often poached in sugar. You will often see them on the top of cakes. At festivals and street markets these delicious sweet cherry tomatoes are on skewers. You will see slices of plum and tomato that have been dipped in a toffee. Tomatoes and strawberries are often side by side at the market. These candied tomatoes are one of many of the sumptuous snacks in Taiwan.
Surprisingly, as it may seem, there is a large variety of sausages on this little island. You can find them on sticks and with ropes of bread wound around them. You will see them in a bun and on fried bread. There are many types of fried breads and pancakes. Fried bread is one of many island specialties. If you like seafood, there is seafood tempura and shrimp tempura. There are many different types of fish. They are fried and sold on a stick. There is also something called stewed offal that seemed to be extremely popular. Another favorite of the locals is called "coffin bread." There are always way too many snacks to try them all. These last two always seemed to have really long lines.
Coffin bread is perhaps the most fun. Though the name is a little strange, it is a unique and treat. It's actually nothing more than a slice of thick toast with a delicious stuffing of mushrooms,vegetables or minced chicken. A square is cut from the middle of this crunchy toast. It is then lifted off as a lid to the coffin. This lid then sits on the top of the sumptuous filling. What a fun and totally unique little eat.
Another little eat is the Bitter Melon. It is a special variety and is almost white in color, rather than the green of most varieties. Neither is it as bitter as the green variety. Be sure and stop by and get a tall mug of honey and bitter melon juice. This is an amazing thirst quencher on a hot day. Mixed with the honey, it is even tastier than the plain bitter melon.
If you are looking for an exotic treat, check out the piles of ripe custard apples. These freshly picked fruits are in almost every market when in season. If you have never eaten a fresh one, then treat yourself. The ones that we get in countries where they are not grown are shipped green. They do not taste anything like a vine ripened custard apple. Custard apples do not travel well, so they can only be shipped when green. These little treats do not come cheap, but are worth every penny.
One of the kings of the little eats are meatballs on a stick. These little meatballs are filled with many seasonings and are a delight to the taste buds. These slightly chewy Glutinous Taiwanese Meatballs when prepared by a skilled Taiwanese cook, are delicious. Nothing compares to these chewy little eats on a stick. Taste and see for yourself, just how delightful they can be.
Our final Taiwan classic is the Oyster Omelette. This classic dish begins with a batter made from sweet potato starch. This is placed at the bottom of the pan and a beaten egg is cracked over the top. Then over all this are oysters and vegetables of many kinds. A thick pink starchy sauce is poured over the top and it is then baked. This is one of the favorite of all the little eats. The lines are always long for these delicious Taiwanese treats.
Are you ready to go? Are you hungry for a food adventure around The Island of Taiwan? Anytime is a good time to make your way around this exciting island. So pack your backpack and get ready for the adventure of a life time. An adventure of "little eats" is waiting!

UW fans know Melanie Wade for her contributions to the Husky volleyball team, including All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention nods her junior and senior year. Off the court, she's worked throughout her career to implement sustainability initiatives within the UW athletic department and across the campus as a whole.
Wade is the student-athlete representative for the athletic department sustainability committee, and worked for a summer an an intern with Karen Baebler, the chair of the committee, where she was in charge of creating a social media presence on Facebook and Twitter (including creating ECO, the stuffed husky who is the face of the GoGreenHuskies twitter account). She also worked with the athletic department staff to create three short videos that encouraged fans to compost and highlighted the importance of composting and recycling. They were featured in the Alaska Airlines Arena during volleyball season. Wade pushed to get composting in the volleyball team locker, and helped with a research study measuring waste in the HUB to learn more about how people were disposing of food items. Wade is also conducting her own research for her social psychology class to see how different environmental advertisements, pro-environment and anti-environment, affect environmental issues.

In the spring of 2015, the student group Confronting Climate Change - also known as Divest UW - celebrated a victory when the University of Washington's Board of Regents voted to divest from coal companies. The move was one that the group had fought for. In 2012, Divest UW delivered a petition to then-UW president Michael Young requesting fossil fuel divestment. Afterward, the students continued to press the UW administration, leading to the divestment vote.
Confronting Climate Change isn't content with stopping there. Alex Lenferna, one of the key leaders in Confronting Climate Change, has done a lot of work to put a price on carbon pollution in Washington state. Lenferna, including other team members from the group, helped develop I-732, an initiative that will promote cleaner energy and make polluting more expensive. This initiative will be in the November 2016 ballot.

The Salvage Wood Program at the University of Washington is working to make sure any trees which need to be removed on campus can have a second life. The program, run by Grounds Management and made possible by a Campus Sustainability Fund grant and help from the UW chapter of Engineers Without Borders, turns those removed trees into lumber for projects on campus such as benches and tables. This keeps the wood out of the waste stream while providing a greater connection to the natural environment of campus.

Agency launches four-sided model that will operate worldwide within 12 months.
The restructure at Golin- Harris reflects 'the increasing influence of digital and social media', the company said.
The new model, called g4, is designed to better engage with audiences in an increasingly complex global environment.
Client teams now combine four areas of expertise - 'strategists' who will handle strategy; catalysts who will execute activity day-to-day; creators who will create content; and connectors to reach consumer and business audiences.
Each of the four communities will be headed by a leader, who will look to foster global collaboration, specialist training, best practice and thought leadership.
He said the approach 'fuses insights, ideas and interaction into one integrated approach, communicating across all media channels, and engages audiences in the most unified and compelling way possible'.
The agency has also invested in The Bridge, networks of real-time multimedia technologies, which have begun operating in its London, New York and San Francisco offices.


Let's talk about the vitamins which are helpful to the growth of your hair.
Vitamin A plays an important role in proper cell growth, which directly influences hair growth. It helps produce the natural oils, also known as sebum, on your scalp. This gives your hair a healthy gloss and shine. Vitamin A contains antioxidants that moisturize the scalp and prevent the hair from drying out. This is one of the best vitamins for hair growth and thickness. It's important to note that it is possible to get too much Vitamin A, which is going to be counterproductive to your hair growth efforts.
Often referred to as vitamin B complex, all the eight B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12) play a significant role in maintaining us healthy. B vitamins influence our energy, metabolism, nerves, muscles, skin, nails, and hair. As a whole, vitamin B complex increases cell growth and division, which is very important for healthy hair growth. To make sure your body isn't vitamin B deficient, it's important to replenish your body's supply daily.
That's because this type of vitamin is water-soluble, meaning the body can't store it. Rather, whatever the body doesn't use gets flushed out of your system through your urine. Some warning signs of deficiency will be, you will feel weak or tired, will be bruising easily and your hair will not grow as fast as it used to. Vitamin B12 is the most important among the B vitamins, but for best results try to mix them all in your daily diet plan. Again, the best way to load up on B vitamins is through the foods you eat.
Some sources include meats, eggs, nuts, grains, and vegetables. If your diet is lacking in B vitamins, though, you can take a daily supplement. Additionally, some hair care products contain B vitamins for extra support.
Most of us have the knowledge that vitamin C can help to increase our immunity, preventing us against frequent colds and other diseases. What many people don't know, though, is vitamin C can help us to strengthen our hair and help it to grow. That's partly because vitamin C helps the body produce collagen, a vital protein for healthy hair, skin, and nails.
Additionally, vitamin C is recognized as an antioxidant that fights free radicals that damage body tissue. Free radicals have been known to damage hair, making it weak and brittle. If you notice your hair breaking a lot or shedding, it may be due to vitamin C deficiency.
While you can simply take a vitamin C supplement, experts say it's best to load up on nutrients from whole foods. Along with consuming nutritious foods, there are a number of great hair care products that are infused with vitamin C.
Niacin is another vitamin that's in the B family but deserves its own recognition. The Niacin helps to nourish the scalp, promoting healthy hair growth. Without adequate amounts of niacin, your hair stands the chance of becoming brittle, lifeless, and may even fall out.
If you desire longer, healthier hair then doesn't forget about Biotin. Biotin is rapidly becoming one of the most widely used supplements for faster hair growth. While biotin is a B vitamin it plays such a key role in maintaining hair healthy that it needed its own spot. This vitamin helps produce glucose and break down proteins into amino acids. Since hair itself contains keratin, which is a form of protein, this supports healthy locks. While most people do get enough Biotin from the foods they eat each day, it is a water-soluble vitamin. Again, that means your body can't retain it and flushes what it doesn't use. So you need to get enough of it each day or you'll run a deficit. Many hair care products now contain Biotin. However, that doesn't mean you should ditch biotin-rich foods or supplements. Rather, a combination of both an internal and external supply seems to work best.
Fish oil supplements have many benefits, ranging from heart health to mental acuity. The fatty acids found in fish oil are also great for the hair. They help to nourish and strengthen the hair, and they can also help to prevent dandruff and other damaging scalp conditions. That's because fish oil helps reduce inflammation. If your hair loss is caused by scalp irritation, taking fish oil supplements will help to soothe the scalp and add luminosity to your strands.
So, there is no doubt that few things are better for hair than fish oil supplements. Omega-3, one of the main nutrients that make up fish oil, is well-known for making hair grow longer, stronger, shinier, and healthier. Fish oil is incredibly good for hair. The omega3 fatty acids in fish oil are full of nutrients as well as proteins. These help in keeping the hair healthy.
Rosemary oil  has a reputation for stimulating hair growth and has been used for centuries by many cultures for this very purpose. Many people using rosemary oil in an attempt to prevent baldness and hair loss. Say bye bye to all your hair stresses with rosemary oil. It implants new life to diminishing hair, gives you thicker bolts, and helps treat dandruff. Moreover, this basic oil has additionally been found to fortify hair development and treat alopecia.
Increase in new hair growth.
Can increase in microcirculation of the scalp, which promotes healing.
Can improve the ability of hair to resist traction.
Decrease in the hair loss after bathing.
Aloe vera is an amazing tree that is now a day frequently used in the field of cosmetology. Though there are various indications for its use, controlled trials are needed to determine its real efficacy. The Aloe vera plant has been known and used for centuries for its health, beauty, medicinal, hair care and skin care properties.
Keep your hair all smooth and shiny.
Can prevent itching on the scalp.
Its antifungal substances kill the fungi on our scalps and remove all the bad odor therefor grow hair firstly.
One of the best amazing benefits of Aloe vera, it can reduce dandruff.
Aloe vera helps restore the pH balance of your hair.
Lack of vitamins. Make sure and maintain a healthy diet.
Sometimes, your hair growth can be stopped according to your parents' genes.
Imbalance of hormones. Because hormones act an important role in hair growth.
Stress can be the reasons. Bad mood and tension can have a direct impact on hair growth.
Scalp and skin diseases are the reasons. an unhealthy scalp can cause inflammation and makes it difficult for hair to grow. As psoriasis, eczema.
Bleaching, showering, brushing, and roughly handling your hair can be the reasons. Handling hair softly.
Rapidly trimming or cutting stimulates hair growth.
Using too much hair products and did not clean properly the good reasons.
Hair breakage is a common problem due to improper nutrition, heat treatments and pollution that makes hair thinner and prone to breakage.
At the certain age, your hair can't grow. The production of oil in the scalp also begins to slow down and due to this.

Hotly contested mine traineeships offer new opportunities
Alcoa is further stepping up its efforts to help people join the resources sector by offering mine traineeships at its Western Australian operations for the first time in a decade.
The traineeships are part of an extensive suite of employment and training opportunities offered by the integrated bauxite miner and alumina and aluminium producer.
Over Alcoa's 57-year history in Australia, it has recruited more than 2,000 trainees, apprentices and graduates. The company currently employs more than 3,770 people in Western Australia.
Alcoa's Simon Carr (back/left) welcomes the company's new mine production trainees including Erika Harrison, Kristie Truebody and Jorja Zawadzki (front row, left to right).
The 12-month Mine Production Traineeships, which are based at Alcoa's Huntly Bauxite Mine near Pinjarra, are also supporting the company's commitment to diversity and inclusion with female and Indigenous recruits among the nine people appointed to the new roles, which were contested by more than 1300 applicants.
Alcoa Huntly Bauxite Mine Manager Brett Hodges said the traineeships would provide valuable knowledge and extensive exposure to the mining industry. "These traineeships are a great opportunity for people in our communities who are either changing careers or newly entering the workforce," Mr Hodges said. "The new recruits represent the future of our company and the industry."
Following a two-week onboarding program during January, the recruits will get on-the-job training in heavy-duty equipment, blasting operations, safety requirements and working as part of a team. They will also undertake TAFE studies and finish with a nationally-recognised Certificate II in Surface Extraction Operations.
New trainee Kristie Truebody, from Dawesville, said she was excited to grow her career. "I'm proud to represent women in mining and I look forward to the challenges the next 12-months may involve," Kristie said.

Instagram Moments In Brooklyn Clothing And Record Store
Record label Fool's Gold has a Brooklyn store that was recently renovated thanks to the work of Family New York. The result is a delight, with so many Instagram Moments that you can have just by walking through. Fool's Gold Store sells both records and branded clothing. This includes hats, sportswear, phone cases, CDs, vinyls and bags.
Renowned DJ A-Trak founded the label that recently celebrated 10 years in the business. The Brooklyn store meant an evolution as the label moved to a larger physical location. Family New York worked on a 500 square feet area trying to create something different than any other record store.
In an interview with Deezen A-Trak said:
"None of our peer labels have brick and mortar spaces like this. If anything. Lately everyone's been doing pop-ups. We wanted a permanent space. Even in clothing, a lot of stores are using the same tropes: white box, exposed wood, lots of plants. We wanted to stand out from that."
As you can easily see from the images, this was a true success. The Brooklyn record and clothing store instantly stands out. It is different, fresh and takes advantage of modern interior design in an industry where everything seems to be old.
