Today in Rock & Roll History: September 1st
Share the post "Today in Rock & Roll History: September 1st"
1953: Buddy Holly and Bob Montgomery auditioned for radio station KDAV's Sunday Party program in Lubbock, Texas. The duo soon started a slot on Sunday afternoons that became known as The Bob and Buddy Show.
1961: Aretha Franklin's recording of "Rock-a-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody" was released as a single from her second album, The Electrifying Aretha Franklin.
1962: Tommy Roe went to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with his first hit single, "Sheila." Roe's original version of the song was recorded in 1960 for Judd Records, but the single failed to chart. His second recording for ABC-Paramount, however, was done in the style of the Lubbock sound, popularized by Buddy Holly and the Crickets. The new version, which bears a strong resemblance to the Cricket's "Peggy Sue," became Roe's first #1 record and the title track of his first album. Originally titled "Frita," it was suggested that the name be changed, and the coincidental presence of Roe's Aunt Sheila at initial sessions for Judd inspired the new title.
1965: The Hollies released their third studio album, Hollies. In November, the band's US label, Imperial Records, released the album with a slightly different track listing as Hear! Here! in America.
1965: Before flying back to England after their American tour, the Beatles visited their new friends The Byrds at a recording session at Columbia Studios in Hollywood. The Byrds were in the process of recording their versions of Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are a-Changin'" and Gene Clark's "She Don't Care About Time" for their next album.
1967: John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers released their fourth studio album, Crusade, which features the first recordings of then-18-year-old guitarist Mick Taylor.
1967: The film The Fastest Guitar Alive, featuring Roy Orbison in his only starring role as an actor, was released.
1967: After joining the rhythm and blues scene in Europe after leaving college, Box Scaggs returned to the US, where he met up with old friend Steve Miller in San Francisco. Scaggs soon became a member of the Steve Miller Band, and after playing on the group's first two albums, he left to pursue a successful solo career. Scaggs and Miller had initially met as teenage schoolmates, and at age fifteen, Scaggs had been the vocalist for Miller's band, the Marksmen.
1972: David Bowie released "John, I'm Only Dancing" backed with "Hang On to Yourself." During sessions for his next album, Aladdin Sane, Bowie re-recorded the song with a different arrangement featuring saxophonist Ken Fordham, which was released in 1973. The song was again completely reworked in 1974 to have a disco and funk sound, but wasn't officially released until 1979.
1975: The Grateful Dead released their eighth studio album, Blues for Allah. It became the group's highest-charting album until 1987's In the Dark, reaching #12 on the Billboard pop chart.
1977: Generation X, with lead vocalist Billy Idol, released their debut single, "Your Generation."
1977: Blondie signed their first major label contract with Chrysalis Records.
1980: Jethro Tull's thirteenth studio album, A, was released in the US two days after it was issued in the UK.
1980: Simple Minds released their third studio album, Empires and Dances.
1981: Hall & Oates released their tenth studio album, Private Eyes.
1983: Guitarist Mick Jones was fired from the Clash. After years of touring and recording, Jones had been ready to take a break, but Joe Strummer wanted to capitalize on the band's growing fame. Frustrated with Jones' uncooperative behavior, Strummer and bassist Paul Simonon decided to assert control over the band and fired him. After hiring two new guitarists and recording one album, however, the band officially broke up the next year. Jones meanwhile co-founded General Public, which he left shortly after to later form Big Audio Dynamite.
1984: Tina Turner had her first and only solo #1 single with "What's Love Got to Do With It," which started three weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. It had been thirteen years since she and former husband Ike Turner had had a top 10 hit with their version of "Proud Mary."
1986: The Bangles released "Walk Like an Egyptian," the third single from their second studio album, Different Light. It became their first #1 hit, topping the charts in the US and several of countries.
1992: The Ramones released Mondo Bizarro, their twelfth studio album and first with new bassist, C.J. Ramone.
1993: The title track and first single from Billy Joel's twelfth studio album, River of Dream, was released in the US.
1997: Genesis released their fifteenth and final studio album, Calling All Stations. After the departure of longtime drummer and lead singer Phil Collins in 1996, Ray Wilson was chosen to take his place. The group disbanded in 1998 after a tour of Europe, and reformed with Collins in 2006 for a tour of Europe and North America.
2009: John Fogerty released his eighth solo studio album, The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again.
Tommy Evans, bass vocalist for The Drifters from 1956-1962, was born in 1927.

Bruce Foxton, singer, songwriter, musician, and bassist for the Jam, was born in Woking, Surrey, England in 1955.

Q: play private playlist with youtube player api on android I can get user's playlist ids on youtube with youtube data api v3. Also, I can play playlists that are public but not the private ones with youtube player api.
Youtube player api is not a must for me, I can switch to any other thing you can offer. All I want is to play the private playlists.
Although my app is authenticated by user (as I said, I already have access to user's info), I get an error: (from logcat)
09-11 18:21:05.774: E/YouTubeAndroidPlayerAPI(21823): apps.youtube.datalib.common.b.n.a:36 Http error: status=[403] msg=[Forbidden, GData error(s):
09-11 18:21:05.774: E/YouTubeAndroidPlayerAPI(21823):   [{domain:GData,code:ServiceForbiddenException,location:null,internalReason:User authentication required.}]]

I think the problem is related to the youtube player api, it doesn't have this functionality, I must somehow edit youtube player api to support play private playlists.

Any way to get a notification for every new tweet on my twitter timeline?
Discussion in 'iOS Apps' started by RedTomato, Mar 22, 2013.
Is there any twitter app or web-app that will send notifications to my iphone for every new tweet on my timeline? I'd like them to appear as banners on my iphone.
The official twitter app allows this, but it has to be individually activated for every single person I follow. Is there a way to turn them on all at once?
I'm pretty sure tweetcaster allows this.
Thanks for the suggestion. Just checked it out and they do their notifications via boxcar.
So I checked out boxcar. They now do notifications for everything (almost) *except* twitter timeline tweets. Grr!
You can search for app you want in Google Play and if you have nokia then in ovi.
when i was using my old blackberry, the native twitter app allowed for this. my god it was annoying as hell. im actually glad it only notifies me of specific things and not everything on the feed.


First film is not bad, and told the audience the fascinating fantastic story. It all starts with how the Grace family moves into an old and isolated house, where strange things happen. Jared Grace is in the house of a diary of Arthur Spiderwick, which may shed light on what is going on in this house. It turns out that here is a world inhabited by various fairy-tale characters.
The second part would be possible to be, but hopefully not. Follow the news, in the future there may be more information on the second film. On our site you'll find everything that interests you.
You can also register on site, add The Spiderwick 2 to your personal cabinet, its date release to Google Calendar. You can vote for your favorite movie of 2019.
Please leave feedback if you watched The Spiderwick 2. It will help others to choose the new film.
Will the second part of this feature film is hard to say, since the first film was released back in 2008. Since then, there was no talk about how to shoot a sequel, but still you are rumors recently increased. Call even supposed release date, which is 2017. But then again, we note that these are just rumors, because it was not made any official statements, and playing the main role in the first film did not talk about how they plan to return to work on the The Spiderwick.
I'm really hoping there is a spiderwick 2, It really captures my attention, if the original jerad comes back all grown up would be great.

Mothercare enters next phase of transformation
18 May 2017 By Tara Hounslea
Mothercare is entering the second phase of its transformation programme to become a "digital retailer with a store estate", chief executive Mark Newton-Jones told Drapers after the firm made its first underlying profit in the UK for six years.
Mothercare Little Bird by Jools Oliver
"This is a pivotal and watershed moment for Mothercare and the turnaround plan," he said.
"Three years ago we were haemorrhaging money – up to £25m a year – and we've started to bring that under control," he said. "Returning to profit allows us to enter the next phase of transformation where we can become a digital retailer with a store estate, rather than a bricks-and-mortar retailer with a website."
The firm has closed more than 100 of its stores over the past four years and invested significantly in upgrading the ones it has left. It has now revealed plans to close a further swathe in the coming years.
"We had 250 stores at the start of the journey, now we have 150 and in the next four to five years I think we could have around 80-100 in major conurbations," he said. "All stores will be in the new club format."
He declined to name where stores would be closing but explained that the firm has now got an "agile store estate" with average lease length of five years.
Mothercare has refurbished 90 stores to date and 20 of those have been done to the "highest standard", including stores in Manchester Fort, Warrington and Edmonton in north London.
Newton-Jones said the firm is trebling the amount it currently spends on staff training for employees in stores to enhance the focus on specialist advice. It currently spends around £50 per head for training for new starters, which will increase to around £200 per head over the next year.
Online sales increased by 7.8% year-on-year in the 12 months to 25 March, accounting for 41% of total UK retail sales. Mobile now accounts for around 83% of online traffic.
"Our customer is a 25-35 year-old mum and digitally enabled," he said. "We now have a database of three million people, up from 150,000 a few years ago, and we're using that data to make decisions on marketing, products, social – we want to be seen as trustworthy and become a source of advice and support."
He said the firm will incentivise store managers to build the customer database further and it plans to host more experience evenings, where expectant parents can come to stores to learn about "essential baby products and key parenting topics".
Newton-Jones explained that Mothercare has made great strides in improving and upgrading its product range, as well as adding more exclusive products – a strategy which he said befits a "specialist business".
"Three years ago there was nothing in the home and travel ranges that you couldn't get from somewhere else," he said, explaining that home and travel accounts for 45% of the business.
"Now a third of what we offer is exclusive.
The retailer has also introduced ultrasound pregnancy scan specialist Babybond to around 20 of its stores, which Newton-Jones said could extend to 40 stores in future. "More than 30,000 soon-to-be mums have had scans with us already," he said.
He said baby clothing collections such as the My K range with musician Myleene Klass and Little Bird with Jools Oliver, chef Jamie Oliver's wife, are performing well, as is the Smile collection by Julien Macdonald. No new celebrity collaborations are in the pipeline.
The business is also taking "baby steps" towards building a wholesale business for its own branded product and believes this could be a big area for growth in future.
"So we have a partnership with Boots where some products are in 400-500 stores and ELC has just launched with Waitrose," he said. "For clothing we have launched on Amazon and Zalando and we're starting to grow from there.
"Our international wholesale business has grown by 38% in the last year, albeit from a low base."
Internationally, Newton-Jones said the business is looking growth opportunities in India, China, Indonesia, Russia and mainland Europe, as well as launching into new territories online.
Losses mount at Mothercare

Smart metering provides insight into patterns of consumption and water pressure that result in operational optimisation and valuable experience for Skanderborg Utility.
Every year during the Danish music festival Smukfest, the population of the nearby city Skanderborg increases by 50,000 people. This temporary but huge variation in the population size puts great pressure on the local water utility to maintain the pressure in the surrounding areas during the festival.
Previously, Skanderborg Utility have had mechanical meters installed by the supply points of Smukfest. Despite supplementary pressure measurements from the waterworks itself, this only gave a general view of how the festival affected their system.
"We were only able to see the total consumption for an entire day," explains Michael Pilc, Operations Manager at Skanderborg Utility.
The limited insight made it difficult to identify the specific challenges related to the festival.
When Skanderborg Utility invested in remotely read pressure sensors and intelligent water meters from Kamstrup, they were able to collect detailed real-time data about changes in pressure and water consumption. The new meters were integrated directly into the established system and could easily be read remotely with Kamstrup's network solution, READy.
The solution from Kamstrup gave the utility a unique insight into the water consumption during the festival.
This made it possible to examine trends and pressure patterns in order identify whether the challenges lay with the utility's own system or with the festival.
"With the new meters from Kamstrup we were able to closely monitor the pressure variations and draw a time-specific consumption pattern," says Michael.
This knowledge enables Skanderborg Utility to manage the distribution system based on peak demands. By adjusting pressure and volume as needed, water resources can be used more optimally and thereby improve the service level for the surrounding areas and customers, who usually experience pressure loss during the festival.
In addition, the identification of the festival's precise consumption gave a deeper insight into the existing system of the utility. With the pressure sensors from Kamstrup, Skanderborg Utility were able to collect specific, measurable data for operating the distribution system in the future and aligning with their hydraulic models. In this way, the solution provided valuable insight that can benefit the utility in the future.
Read more about pressure optimisation and download our whitepaper here.
According to Skanderborg Utility, the accurate data from the Kamstrup meters provide a more detailed overview of the consumption needs. Based on this, the utility and Smukfest can work together to optimise the water supply and continue to ensure a good experience for the happy attendees of the festival.
In the future, the pressure sensors can be used at critical points in the utility's distribution system to identify when the pressure can be reduced without affecting the service level. This can help extend the lifetime of the network, limit water loss and energy consumption as well as reduce the number of bursts and leaks in the distribution network.

Tammy here today with a fun Father's Day project using the Proxxon Glass Engraving Tool.
I received the glass engraving tool and it was packaged in a sturdy carrying case and had easy to follow directions. My daughter was happy to be able to make a Father's Day gift that she knows her dad will enjoy using.
1. My daughter used a Sharpie marker to write a note on a piece of copy paper.
2. I placed the paper face side out on the inside of the glass and taped it to the glass.
3. I was able to easily trace the fine details of the drawing with the glass engraving tool, so it looks like she drew it on herself!
This would be a great gift for any dad that enjoys a cold beverage every once in a while, and you can easily trace any image with the tool so the possibilities are endless!

Interview of Rick Stoughton by Katie Molpus
Preserving Peace
When asked about his decorated service in Vietnam, Mr. Richard Stoughton, a retired Air Force Captain, responds humbly. "It wasn't heroic by any means," he answers in a matter of fact tone. The particular incident that Mr. Rick is referring to is when he, along with three other pilots, stepped in to assist troops on the ground under attack. Although he would never admit it, this action helped save the lives of many grateful troops and earned him a Distinguished Flying Cross, one of several medals Mr. Rick earned. In that moment and throughout his five years of military service, he served bravely and maintained this positive, humble attitude, despite the difficulties of combat.
No stranger to travel, Mr. Rick grew up in a military family, often moving from place to place. Between kindergarten and his senior year of high school, he attended twelve different schools. He always enjoyed his time in different environments, especially Germany where he spent his senior year. After his high school graduation, he intended to make the military a career, like his father. Shortly after, Mr. Rick found himself at The Citadel, the first place he lived for more than three years. Freshman year at The Citadel was the hardest, but the experiences had a profound effect on the relationships he made. "They say each class is different, but the same [connection] is there," Mr. Rick says, "It forms a mold and friendships, a union like no other college has." This bond connects Citadel students past and present. Anytime he sees a Citadel graduate, Mr. Rick introduces himself and takes the time to chat and reminisce.
To say that June 1, 1968 was a busy day for Mr. Rick would be an understatement. Not only did he graduate from The Citadel that day, but it was also the day that he was commissioned and married his wife, Mary. At 8 a.m., he had his commissioning ceremony. After a short break, he had graduation, and later that evening he was married. About three weeks later, the newlyweds drove cross country to California, where Mr. Rick began navigation school. The two did not stay long in California; they were stationed at the Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico for the remainder of his time in the service. After three years at Holloman—with just ten months left in his commitment to the Air Force—Mr. Rick received the news that he would be heading to Vietnam.
Mr. Rick had volunteered to go to Vietnam repeatedly before his wing was mobilized. Despite wanting to serve his country in combat, the gravity of the situation was not lost on him. "I never thought I'd come back; that's the frame of mind I had," Mr. Rick explains. "It's crazy, but that's what I thought." He was stationed in Takhli, Thailand at a deactivated base. He describes the conditions at the base as "a little rough for us Air Force guys." Although the conditions at the base were trying, Mr. Rick's first mission proved to be an even greater test of endurance. The mission was rained out twice before they were finally able to fly. "I don't think I slept for three days," he said. But then adrenaline kicked in, along with training. During the first mission, his squadron was shot at by a surface-to-air missile, but they were able to fly higher and watch the missile fade beneath the aircraft.
From then on, Mr. Rick describes his time with three words: "Eat, Sleep, Fly." They would fly two missions a day, each mission lasting about two and a half hours. They would find their target, land, refuel, eat, and then repeat the same process once again before returning to their base in Takhli. The days were long, but he remembers them as exciting. In his 95 days in Vietnam, Mr. Rick got around seven days off. On these days, the men would set up a snack bar and catch up on sleep between volleyball games and reading. Although he never got to spend much time in the area, he recalls the spicy food and the markets around the area where he was able to quickly find a new pair of boots.
Even more "exciting" were the Route Six missions that took them over Hannoi, one of the most heavily defended areas at the time. "There was no element of surprise," Mr. Rick says, "They knew you were coming." It was during these missions that Mr. Rick had to cross the Red River, allowing him to join the River Rats. The River Rats, started during the Vietnam War, is an organization for fighter pilots, and the group, now known as the Red River Valley Association, has local and national meetings and offers scholarships to the children and spouses of members.
One of the "exciting" missions that Mr. Rick remembers led to his Distinguished Flying Cross. "It was overcast, and we couldn't see the target," he remembers. After dropping their altitude to around 8000 feet, ground control contacts them. "They said we've got some troops in a bad situation. They marked the target for us." When they flew closer to assist the ground troops, he could see the friendly troops running across a grassy field. "All of the sudden, it was like somebody stepped on an ant bed," he said. "They had hundreds of enemies chasing after them." The pilots were able to drop an ordinance and help the troops escape. "They were happy guys that night," Mr. Rick says humbly. He then describes the experience of receiving the award, telling me, "You don't think you did anything special, but I know those guys on the ground: It was special to them."
Mr. Rick returned home to his wife after three months in Vietnam. "When I was coming back, I didn't tell her I was coming back," he says. Attempting to surprise Mary, he called their home in Holloman, but no one answered the phone. At that moment, "I said, 'She's gone,'" Mr. Rick remembers, "So I called home, back in Charleston. Who answers the phone? My wife." The two decided to meet halfway in El Paso, Texas. Shortly after his return, he and his wife moved back to Charleston, where they have lived ever since. "I was quite proud of her," Mr. Rick says of his wife's strength while he was away. He attributes this strength to his success after his service. He describes Mary as "the pusher." He says, "She pushed me all the way."
Mr. Rick began working at the First Federal Savings and Loan in Charleston, and he came back to The Citadel in 1980 to pursue his MBA. After finishing his MBA, Mr. Rick and Mary had two sons, and he continued his work at the bank until his retirement. As he reflects on his time in the military, he does not at all regret his time spent in the Air Force or in Vietnam, which he describes as "an experience that you had to endure." Mr. Rick explains that the Air Force "prepares you for situations that you just don't think about."
Mr. Rick still meets with the local River Rats organization. "We get together, have a couple of drinks, and shoot the breeze," he says, "just like fly guys do all over the place." When asked about what from his time in combat has had the greatest effect on his life, he responds by focusing on the positive results of his sacrifice and the sacrifices of others. "Peace is a wonderful thing," he says, "Peace is remarkable." His time in the service showed him firsthand what must be done to preserve that peace, and thankfully he can enjoy some of that peace he helped maintain with his family and friends in Charleston, where his military career began.

I stayed at this flat for 3 months. It's wonderful, quite spacious with a modern kitchen. I loved the views south over the city. The location is ideal, as it is a quiet, leafy neighborhood with very easy access to shops and 3 different tube lines, and a bus stop in front of the building. It took about 25 minutes door-to-door to the British Library, 45 minutes to the National Archives at Kew, and about 15 to Oxford/Bond street. In addition, Prof. Dreyfus is very responsive and helpful. Excellent Karen Auman 3/2/2010 12:10:00 PM

Pop star Justin Bieber encourages Japanese children to look forward to the future after earthquake and tsunami
Filed Under: Education, Humanity, News, People
Canadian pop star Justin Bieber met with Japanese children whose lives have been devastated by an earthquake, tsunami and an ongoing nuclear crisis that has forced thousands of families from their homes.
In Japan for several concerts, the 17-year-old singer spoke briefly with nearly a dozen kids, including some from Otsuchi, a northeastern town massively damaged by the March 11 tsunami.
One boy from Otsuchi read a card from the children to Bieber, thanking him for meeting with them."We have friends who lost their family and their homes, some have left our school. The town is covered with wreckage and it will take a long time to get back to normal," he said."But we will work hard for this. Please give us courage through your music."
Bieber, who had earlier told the children that they "were an inspiration," said in return that life would improve. "Things can get better and things will get better. There are only good times to come," he said.
Bieber has already contributed to a charity album "Songs For Japan" with artists such as Lady Gaga and Bob Dylan, which has raised over $5 million for the victims of the disasters that have left nearly 25,000 people dead or missing.
Bieber performed in the western city of Osaka to a sold-out venue and next appears at Tokyo's fabled Budokan for another sold-out performance.

July 2018 Favorites! – T.G.I.
It's been a long time since I've done a favorites post! I have a lot of beauty and fashion bits and bobs I've been loving so far this summer, so I thought I would share them with you!
I got this at Walmart for like a dollar and I swear I love it even more than the Glossier Balm Dot Com. Seriously, you can use it for everything, even on your cuticles. It feels so nice and hydrating on my lips, especially when they're cracked (which is all the time).
This is honestly the best toner I have ever used. My skin can't handle anything super harsh, so when it comes to toner I would typically stay away before. But since this formula has aloe vera and is alcohol-free, it is so gentle that it even feels refreshing when I use it after I cleanse my skin. The rose petal scent is also incredible and soothing, but not overly fragrant.
I got a trial size of this in my Ipsy bag, and I fell in love with it instantly. It is natural and cruelty-free, and has done wonders for my hair. Every time I pop a little bit in my hair, it really does condition my hair! Sometimes products (even my long-time favorite Moroccan Oil!) can make me a little frizzy if I use it in the morning, b9ut that never happens with this product. This has been a lifesaver since I cut my hair, especially during the summer (aka prime frizz season). I've been using the 1.0 oz trial size for a month now, and it looks like I've only used a quarter of it! Gotta love that staying power.
I have acquired quite a collection of bandanas and handkerchiefs, primarily from Target. They are so easy to pair with a simple t-shirt and pair of jeans when I want to add a pop of color. They're super cute, and they keep my hair out of my eyes! Here is one of the ones I could find online.
Unfortunately, I can't link these exact earrings because I got them at the shore at a little local boutique, but I've been wearing these cute little guys constantly. They're super cute and simple, and that's been so me this summer. Not too fussy, just stylishly simple.
The t-shirt dress is one of my all-time favorite things to wear because they are so easy to throw on, but they are always cute and stylish. This camo dress is no exception! At first I wasn't sure about the camo print…it's not my usual style, but I couldn't pass up the price. Once I wore it for the first time, I was hooked! It is so comfy and soft, and easy to pair with a denim jacket, sandals, or converse. Easily the cutest and easiest outfit of the summer. My only piece of advice is to size up in this dress, so that it's long and baggy enough for you!

Youhei Suzuki (The "Hentai" Prince and the Stony Cat., Urara Meirochō) is serving as the show's new director at J.C. Staff. Writer Hideki Shirane, character designer Shigeki Kimoto, and composer Keiji Inai are returning from the original anime. Yuka Iguchi is returning to perform the opening theme song "RE-ILLUSION," and Kano will perform the ending theme song "day by day."
GA Bunko describes the anime's story:
Sword princess Aiz Wallenstein. Today, once again, the strongest female swordsman heads to the giant labyrinth known as the "Dungeon" along with her allies. On the 50th floor where mysteries and threats such as a decayed dragon's corpse that crumbles to ash and an irregularity that creeps ever closer to the party loom, Aiz calls for the wind and heads deeper into the darkness of the Dungeon. Eventually, she finds herself meeting a boy for the first time. "Um, are you OK?" In the Labyrinth City of Orario, the contrasting stories of the boy and the girl intersect!
The Sword Oratoria spinoff light novels have also inspired an ongoing manga adaption by Takashi Yagi on Square Enix's web magazine Gangan Online .
J.C. Staff adapted the original Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? light novel series into a television anime in 2015, and Aniplus Asia aired the anime as a simulcast as it aired in Japan. It also aired the original video anime (OVA) on February 14 and 17. The OVA debuted in Japan on December 7 with both a Blu-ray Disc and DVD release.

Belgium is a very safe location for travellers and there currently no travel restrictions placed on tourists. In addition, this is a great location for travellers as it is a simple place to move around and most people speak English. The people are also very willing to help you out if you need assistance finding a specific place or just general directions.
The nation is separated into 2 ethnic regions, the Wallonia in the south and northern Flanders. An imaginary, east to west line that divides these ethnic regions bisects Belgium at Brussels, a location that both regions claim. Even though this is an important political conundrum faced by the Belgian people, it is inconsequential for the traveller.
Forget the Belgian politics and instead focus on the wealth of beautiful towns, culture and historic cities. Brussels is regarded as Europe's capital city as it hosts the headquarters of NATO and European Union. There are also plenty of amazing festivals that will make your holiday more enjoyable. For a similar treat, you should consider checking out the best places to visit in Turkey before you die. For now let us take a look at the best places to visit in Belgium before you die.

Ok, So im not new to emulators, I think i have good understanding of the settings and have read multiple guide on setting it up for certain games.
I recently upgraded to a i7-2600k, Radeon 7770 2gb OC, 16gb Ram.
but for the life of me I cant get some games even playable at this point.
Final Fantasy X/X-2, Final Fantasy XII, and DQ8.
I have tried EVERYTHING and there just some insane slowdowns, and renders the games unplayable, just wondering if this is cause PS2 emulation is just that demanding? I see videos of people with less specs then mine running these games fine, ANY HELP would be great.
under the graphics plugin select your graphics card.

I do, then there DX 11 DX 10 DX 9 open GL software and harrdware modes.
FFXII has huge slowdowns in battle, or when ever alot of stuff on screen.
Have you tried enabling the MTVU hack under speedhacks. Also, what clockspeed are you running at?
3.4ghz, I have tried both enabling and disabling MTVU and no difference.
I can play all the Final Fantasy's you mentioned at full speed upscaled and I have the non k version of your cpu running the same clockspeed so your pc is definitely powerfull enough. What version of the emulator are you using?
See thats what I have seen and heard, Im using the most recent version, I normal upscale games aswell (Dolphin does this fine up to 4x before any minor slow downs) cant understand why PS2 giving so many problems, even at native I get these crazy slow downs.
Your CPU might be throttling. The GPU is okay but not the best, might wanna stick to 2x scaling at best with it. Make sure your CPU speed isn't jumping up and down for no reason. Get CPU-Z (it's free) and monitor the CPU usage while you play.
Hmmm, are you playing straight from the discs or running iso?

The op has a better gpu than I do and I was play GT3/GT4 at 3x native.


In order to gain a better understanding of the physical world, scientists use a process of investigation that follows a general cycle of observation, hypothesis, deduction, test and revision, sometimes referred to as the scientific method. Galileo Galilei, one of the earliest architects of this method, believed that the study of science had a strong logical basis that involved precise definitions of terms and physical quantities, and a mathematical structure to express relationships between these physical quantities.
In this section, we study a set of base physical quantities and units that can be used to derive all other physical quantities. These precisely defined quantities and units, with accompanying order-of-ten prefixes (e.g. milli, centi and kilo) can then be used to describe the interactions between objects in systems that range from celestial objects in space to sub-atomic particles.
Mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with the study of motion and its causes. Through a careful process of observation and experimentation, Galileo Galilei used experiments to overturn Aristotle's ideas of the motion of objects, for example the flawed idea that heavy objects fall faster than lighter ones, which dominated physics for about 2000 years.
The greatest contribution to the development of mechanics is by one of the greatest physicists of all time, Isaac Newton. By extending Galileo's methods and understanding of motion and gravitation, Newton developed the three laws of motion and his law of universal gravitation, and successfully applied them to both terrestrial and celestial systems to predict and explain phenomena. He showed that nature is governed by a few special rules or laws that can be expressed in mathematical formulae. Newton's combination of logical experimentation and mathematical analysis shaped the way science has been done ever since.
In this section, we begin by examining kinematics, which is a study of motion without regard for the cause. After which, we study the conditions required for an object to be accelerated and introduce the concept of forces through Newton's Laws. Subsequently, concepts of moments and pressure are introduced as consequences of a force. Finally, this section rounds up by leading the discussion from force to work and energy, and the use of the principle of conservation of energy to explain interactions between bodies.
Amongst the early scientists, heat was thought as some kind of invisible, massless fluid called 'caloric'. Certain objects that released heat upon combustion were thought to be able to 'store' the fluid. However, this explanation failed to explain why friction was able to produce heat. In the 1840s, James Prescott Joule used a falling weight to drive an electrical generator that heated a wire immersed in water. This experiment demonstrated that work done by a falling object could be converted to heat.
In the previous section, we studied about energy and its conversion. Many energy conversion processes which involve friction will have heat as a product. This section begins with the introduction of the kinetic model of matter. This model is then used to explain and predict the physical properties and changes of matter at the molecular level in relation to heat or thermal energy transfer.
Waves are inherent in our everyday lives. Much of our understanding of wave phenomena has been accumulated over the centuries through the study of light (optics) and sound (acoustics). The nature of oscillations in light was only understood when James Clerk Maxwell, in his unification of electricity, magnetism and electromagnetic waves, stated that all electromagnetic fields spread in the form of waves. Using a mathematical model (Maxwell's equations), he calculated the speed of electromagnetic waves and found it to be close to the speed of light, leading him to make a bold but correct inference that light consists of propagating electromagnetic disturbances. This gave the very nature of electromagnetic waves, and hence its name.
In this section, we examine the nature of waves in terms of the coordinated movement of particles. The discussion moves on to wave propagation and its uses by studying the properties of light, electromagnetic waves and sound, as well as their applications in wireless communication, home appliances, medicine and industry.
For a long time, electricity and magnetism were seen as independent phenomena. Hans Christian Oersted, in 1802, discovered that a current carrying conductor deflected a compass needle. This discovery was overlooked by the scientific community until 18 years later. It may be a chance discovery, but it takes an observant scientist to notice. The exact relationship between an electric current and the magnetic field it produced was deduced mainly through the work of Andre Marie Ampere. However, the major discoveries in electromagnetism were made by two of the greatest names in physics, Michael Faraday and James Clerk Maxwell.
The section begins with a discussion of electric charges that are static, i.e. not moving. Next, we study the phenomena associated with moving charges and the concepts of current, voltage and resistance. We also study how these concepts are applied to simple circuits and household electricity. Thereafter, we study the interaction of magnetic fields to pave the way for the study of the interrelationship between electricity and magnetism. The phenomenon in which a current interacts with a magnetic field is studied in electromagnetism, while the phenomenon in which a current or electromotive force is induced in a moving conductor within a magnetic field is studied in electromagnetic induction.
