Of the tour, Mikee W Goodman states "It's so great how well received our album has been so far! After touring USA and Europe it's a huge buzz to be able to come back and headline UK again. Even more exciting as were going to play so many of the new album songs at the shows!!"
The Future In Whose Eyes? is the band's first full-length release since 2006's Death Of A Dead Day and features the first ever guest vocalist on a SikTh album: Periphery vocalist Spencer Sotelo joins Mikee W Goodman on 'Cracks Of Light', following the band's support slot on Periphery's US tour in 2016 . "They're really nice people, everyone on that US tour felt it was the best one they'd been on," Mikee explains. "We actually got him down to R&R Studios in Uxbridge where we made the album. I really like Periphery and especially love Spencer's voice, he's not your usual djent singer, and he's very much a spiritual man. He knows his and mind well and so we nailed the song really quicky".
Of the new record Dan Weller, SikTh's guitarist and producer, says:
"Ever since SikTh was formed way back at the turn of the century we've tried to self improve as musicians and as song writers. We take our music very seriously. This record feels like the one we've always wanted to make. We spent over a year writing it and pushed ourselves extremely hard - sometimes too hard. Opacities was the rebirth of SikTh but 'The Future...' is our statement - I want this album to define us. I don't care how over ambitious it sounds - we want this record to be heard by every metal fan on the planet."
The Future In Whose Eyes? is out now on deluxe 12" hardbook, CD, gatefold 180g heavy weight vinyl and digital download, with 'Vivid' and 'Golden Cufflinks' available as instant downloads. Purchase the record here: http://found.ee/The_Future_In_Whose_Eyes

FL House Votes To Require Ex-Felons Pay Back Huge Fees Before Re-Enfranchisement

The Florida House of Representatives on Wednesday passed a resolution to require former felons to pay potentially thousands of dollars in fines, fees, court costs and restitution (even restitution converted to a civil lien) in order to be allowed to vote, placing a huge asterisk on Amendment 4, the widely supported constitutional change that gives most felons their voting rights back after they "complete all terms of their sentence."
The House version of Amendment 4 implementation is not yet law; the state Senate, which is also Republican-controlled, is considering a version that would still require the repayment of restitution, but not restitution converted to a civil lien, nor other expenses like fees, fines and court costs, the Orlando Sentinel noted Wednesday. The House version passed along party lines.
Many argue that the amendment text voters overwhelmingly approved was meant to be "self-implementing" or "self-executing" and therefore doesn't require Republican legislative fine print.
In January, WLRN tallied potentially hundreds of millions of dollars that ex-felons would have to pay in order to vote. That would also be a boon for private debt collection agencies, the report noted, which some counties allow to tack on huge fees on top of the existing debts.
Florida has some of the most burdensome conviction-related expenses in the county, and advocates for felon re-enfranchisement have compared making the right to vote conditional upon paying them back to a modern poll tax.
"It's blatantly unconstitutional as a poll tax," Rep. Adam Hattersley (D-Riverview) said in March.
In addition to the discrepancy over fees, the Senate's version also more narrowly defines which former felons would not be re-enfranchised due to the nature of their convictions: Amendment 4 excludes people "convicted of murder or a felony sexual offense." The House version would include every felony sexual offense currently on the books, while the Senate's version is more limited.
The legislative session ends May 3. Amendment 4 got more votes than any statewide elected official, including Sen. Rick Scott (R) and Gov. Ron DeSantis, in the 2018 elections. It replaced Florida's comically arbitrary status quo for rights restoration.

Annelies Marie Frank (German pronunciation: [ʔanəliːs maˈʁiː ˈʔanə ˈfʁaŋk]; Dutch pronunciation: [ʔɑnəˈlis maːˈri ˈʔɑnə ˈfrɑŋk]; 12 June 1929 – February or March 1945) was a German-born diarist and writer. She is one of the most discussed Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Her diary, The Diary of a Young Girl, which documents her life in hiding during the German occupation of the Netherlands in World War II, is one of the world's most widely known books and has been the basis for several plays and films.
Born in the city of Frankfurt, Germany, she lived most of her life in or near Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Born a German national, Frank lost her citizenship in 1941 and thus became stateless. The Frank family moved from Germany to Amsterdam in the early 1930s when the Nazis gained control over Germany. By May 1940, they were trapped in Amsterdam by the German occupation of the Netherlands. As persecutions of the Jewish population increased in July 1942, the family went into hiding in some concealed rooms behind a bookcase in the building where Anne's father worked. In August 1944, the group was betrayed and transported to concentration camps. Anne and her sister, Margot, were eventually transferred to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where they allegedly died (probably of typhus) in February or March 1945, just weeks before the camp was liberated in April.
Anne Frank lived her life as a normal girl, until the Nazis came. They forced her family and 2 others into hiding.
The Diary of Anne Frank or its alternative title, The Diary of a Young Girl, is the English translation of the Dutch book Het Achterhuis.
Writen by Anne Frank. Refer to "The diary of a young girl"
First published under the title Het Achterhuis. Dagboekbrieven 14 Juni 1942 – 1 Augustus 1944 (The Annex: Diary Notes 14 June 1942 – 1 August 1944) by Contact Publishing in Amsterdam in 1947, the diary received widespread critical and popular attention on the appearance of its English language translation Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl by Doubleday & Company (United States) and Valentine Mitchell (United Kingdom) in 1952. Its popularity inspired the 1955 play The Diary of Anne Frank by the screenwriters Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, which they adapted for the screen for the 1959 movie version. The book is included in several lists of the top books of the 20th century.

Vaughan is a very interesting place in the Greater Toronto Area. It is close to Downtown Toronto, but it has its own culture. It is mainly a family place, suitable for families with small children.

Overall, it is a good place if you want to have a property in the fairly safe neighborhood and be close to Toronto Downtown.

It is important to realize that this is not all. These details are just a few form a long list that you need to find and go through. Do not rely on statistics and thoughts of others. This is your purchase, so the final decision must be only yours. Ask around, use the internet, ask your realtor or seek an advise form High Level Movers Toronto. All help is welcome in the situation like this. As you can see, every location from top GTA places for first time buyers has a good and not so good side. During your research take notes, and compare them. That is the best way to make a short list. After that, it will be easier to choose. But remember, whatever you choose, it will be a good decision.

Discussion in 'Mac Pro' started by Fab_o12, Apr 17, 2018.
It has 2x 3.46 ghz processors and 32 gb ddr3 RAM and a Evaga GTX 1060 6gb.
I am getting fantastic frames and performance when i boot into windows 7 via Bootcamp but when I am in mac os and using programmes like final cut pro x I get very bad sluggish performance and in benchmarking my results in cinebench are 53fps on mac os and 85fps on Windows 7 why is this happening? and also the fans don't spin in mac os and i can only get them to spin in windows if a launch the evaga program that overclocks and controls temperatures.
Does anyone know why I am encountering these problems?
are you using NVIDIA web drivers? what version?
APFS or HFS+ formatted system drive?
any other GPUs in system?
what slot is it connected to?
It is the only GPU in the system and its connected into the 16x pcie slot (bottom one) and it is powered from the two mini 6pin power connectors from the motherboard that are converted to an 8pin power connected.
Im not sure what my what drive is formatted but its two 480gb ssds in raid 0 and windows in on a 1tb hdd but my ssds are probaby APFS not sure though they are osx journalated if that helps.
Metal and OpenCL which macOS relies a lot on, both run way better on AMD. An RX 580 can outperform a GTX 1080 Ti in macOS.
so if i swithc cards to an rx 580 will it still game as well as the 1060 in windows?
Upgrading OS to 10.13.4 (17E199) with NVIDIA web driver 387.10.10.10.30.103 may be the best place to start troubleshooting. Generally speaking, I find the 10XX series GPUs perform best with the latest web driver.
Important note: Non-standard GPUs or GPUs that have been modified MAY have issues with the web driver on the Mac side.
Using a GPU that is most compatible with the NVIDIA web driver is the best suggestion. These are easily ID'd as Founders Editions cards directly sold by NVIDIA, but there are reference models from manufacturers. Look for the NVIDIA logo on the board itself near the PCIe pins/connection. If it's been replaced with manufacturer's logo, it likely was modified in SOME fashion.
Does it mean the NVIDIA web drivers will not work? No, and many cards do work with the web drivers. But if you're looking for peak performance and compatibility on the Mac side, this is something to pay attention to.
kay ill upgrade my system to high sierra and then run some bench tests.
I don't think you're going to get anywhere near windows performance in OSX, though probably depends on the title you're running.
I run a 1060-egpu on my laptop (rmb 2014), and for Civ6 I think the frame rate is at least double on windows. Recently I swapped with a RX-570 since 10.13.4 handles the AMD cards better - my hope was under OSX it might be faster than the 1060, but in practice I had to drop my resolution even further to get a usable FPS.
On my mac pro I have a 1070, which gives it a bit more oomph, but its still faster under Windows. Never tried running a recent AMD card there, but I expect the same disappointment if I did.
Pretty much every cross-platform game I tried is much faster in windows -- Borderlands, XCOM, etc. So gaming for me in OSX is convenience. But maybe i'm just running the wrong games...?
FAQ 19, Cinebench is generally very CPU limited on macOS due to Apple's OpenGL implementation. It's really not a great test of your GPU performance, try something like Unigine Heaven or Valley instead. Or, as others have pointed out, a Metal benchmark.
Most Windows games prefer Nvidia cards. DirectX 12 titles usually give AMD the edge, but DX11 titles usually give Nvidia the edge. So it's a bit of a toss-up depending on the title.
There's a lot of different things to consider. In general, yes, Windows performs better with games. There are exceptions though. And varying degrees of differences. As a rule of thumb, the higher the resolution, the smaller the difference. For me, XCOM actually runs a bit better on macOS (oddly), and in general, it's been found that the F1 racing game performs better on macOS (at least at higher resolutions). Most other games that I've tested or read about work better on Windows, but how much the difference is varies greatly. I've seen anything from 5% to 500%.
What OS and driver version are you using on macOS? It's expected that Windows will be faster than macOS, but sub-30 FPS suggests there's something fundamentally wrong with your system. If you aren't on 10.13.4 with the latest NVIDIA driver, that will be the first place to start.
Also, anyone knows why my fans aren't spinning in either mac osx or windows 7. I can only get them to spin when i launch Evaga Procession oc or something like that.
Well, have you kept an eye on the temperatures? Maybe it's just not necessary.
Exactly right, the Pascal GPUs are very efficient and don't need to run the fans when the GPU is idle.
downloaded high sierra but i cant install it on my ssd raid see picture enclosed for further details. Anyone know how to bypass this or is there no way round?
Clone your system drive to a SINGLE drive and put that in SATA bay #1 (Carbon Copy Cloner).
Then update macOS to High Sierra.
Then you can clone your system drive back to single SSD -OR- setup SSDs as a new RAID set in High Sierra, then clone system drive to RAID.
Few steps for a workaround, but should work.
I'd personally avoid a bootable RAID in MacPro moving forward unless it is hardware based and displays to OS as a single native drive. Even then, make sure you have backup(s).
What problems with PPro are you running into? What renderer are you using?
Has been smooth most of the day with CC2018 (12.1.0 build 186) using OpenCL or CUDA renderer on 5,1 with GTX 1080 FE, dual 3.46 and 128GB RAM using the .106 web driver.
anyone still following this thread? i'm thinking to pick up a nVidia GTX 1060 for my old mac pro 5.1 as well.
but worried that there will be no nVidia driver to support it.
for now, nVidia seems only have drivers for their 10 series on Sierra or later OS X?
if I don't want to upgrade my OS, is there any other nVidia option for me, later ones that support El Capitan? i think Sierra is fine but i heard High Sierra is problematic.
Or is there other AMD graphic card would also work great on this machine?
i'm using it only for video editing with Primiere and after effects, sometime use MAYA or sketch up.
1060 won't work, but a 970 will do.
I have a similar Mac (bought new too). If I put a founder 1070 in it, will the mac boot up normally? Is there a thread to advise which card is best for a 5.1 and how to install it and start everything up ?
Yes, everything you need to know is in this sticky thread.


Taking Trump to task over his hailing of American nationalism is an easy target, and Macron received unctuous praise from Western elites who hate Trump already. They seem not to be aware that iconic Republican President Teddy Roosevelt hailed 'New Nationalism' in America over a century ago. Moreover, it's not clear what Trump exactly means by American nationalism today – concise definitions not being one of The Donald's strongpoints – since European-style Blut und Boden nationalism has never made sense in multiethnic and multicultural America.
Neither is obvious that all Europe agrees with Macron here. The French president made the weekend an explicitly Western European event. Throughout, window-dressing aside, the Armistice Day commemoration was about France and Germany. As Macron stated while holding the hand of Angela Merkel, Germany's chancellor, 'Europe has been at peace for 73 years.' This would be news in Southeastern Europe, including Sarajevo which, Macron seems to have forgotten, is where the First World War started.
What got the lion's share of attention was Trump's punting on his signature event, a Saturday visit to the American cemetery at Aisne-Marne, near the famous Belleau Wood battleground. The event was tersely canceled. Staffers proffered strange excuses about rain grounding the presidential helicopter. No other dignitaries were similarly shut-in. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had no trouble getting to his country's cemetery at Vimy, twice as far from Paris as Trump's destination.
The damage was done and was not repaired by Trump's consolation speech the following day at the American cemetery at Suresnes, closer to Paris. That speech was so anodyne as to be barely recognizable as Trumpian oratory. The president's non-appearance on Saturday defined his trip for the world.
That's unfortunate since a golden opportunity was missed for Trump to be himself at Aisne-Marne. As many have noted, the president campaigned as a skeptic about rampant American interventionism abroad yet has governed as a rather conventional Republican. While Trump deserves praise for not starting any more needless wars of choice – a low bar not cleared by his predecessor – neither has he ended America's underperforming forever war in Afghanistan, now in its 17th year. Saber-rattling by cabinet hawks against Iran indicates that neoconservative adventurism is neither dead nor buried and is nested in the White House.
President Trump ought to have used his Saturday platform to tell Europeans what an awful idea American intervention in the First World War really was. It did nothing good for America, and plenty bad for Europe too. After the required boilerplate about honoring the dead, point out that Woodrow Wilson – a virulent racist who trampled on civil liberties at home – knew nothing about Europe but wanted to remake it. Wilson, an Ivy League professor and progressive from central casting, knew better.
Remind that American intervention in the war was led by strange religious fervor and do-gooder beliefs that America's moral superiority meant it could remake whole regions by force of ideas. Point out how eerily similar all this was to the ramp-up to George W. Bush's madcap invasion of Iraq in 2003 (Europeans will like that), hint that there was nothing 'conservative' about any of this strategic delusion.
Claim credit for victory in 1918: American entry in the war broke the stalemate and ensured Allied victory. As Winston Churchill said concisely, 'the moral consequence of the United States joining the Allies was indeed the deciding cause in the conflict,' adding that without American intervention the war 'would have ended in a peace by negotiation.' Yes, that would have meant a Europe dominated by Germany, but you have that today.
Moreover, Wilhelmine Germany, for all its faults, bore no resemblance to Hitler's Third Reich. With a compromise peace in the West, the Germans would have promptly crushed the Bolshevik menace rising in the East like a bug. Then, no Fascism, no National Socialism, no Holocaust. Not to mention that Wilson's strange ideas about Eastern Europe would have never seen the light of day and the chaos in the Balkans and beyond birthed by the war's end, still quite alive today, would have been stillborn.
That speech would have demonstrated that President Trump is sincere about remaking American foreign policy for the new century, learning the lessons of the last one. Too bad he didn't brave the rain on Saturday.

Macro-Mayan
Title: Macro-Mayan
Subject: Indigenous languages of the Americas, Mesoamerican languages, Macrofamily, List of language families
(obsolete)
Linguistic classification:
Subdivisions:
Totonacan
Mixe–Zoque
Huave
Macro-Mayan is a proposal linking the clearly established Mayan family with neighboring families that show similarities to Mayan.
The first proposals of this hypothesis were made by Norman McQuown in 1942 who linked Mayan and Mixe–Zoquean. The hypothesis was not elaborated until 1979 when Brown and Witkowski put forth a proposal with 62 cognate sets and supposed sound correspondences between the two families. They also published two articles proposing a "Mesoamerican Phylum" composed of Maco-Mayan and other language families of Mesoamerica. These proposals was examined closely by Lyle Campbell and Terrence Kaufman who rejected the proposal completely because of serious flaws in the methodology that had been applied. They rejected almost all of the 62 cognates. First and foremost they found it important to identify all cases of linguistic diffusion before collecting possible cognates because diffusion has been widespread within the Mesoamerican Linguistic Area. The exchanges between Brown and Witkowski and Campbell and Kaufman took place in the journal American Anthropologist between 1978 and 1983.
However Campbell wrote that he believed that Mayan would indeed some day prove to be related to Mixe–Zoquean and Totonacan (Campbell: 1997), but that the studies up to then had done nothing to support such an assumption. (This may have changed for Mixe–Zoquean and Totonacan themselves, with the Totozoquean proposal.) In Campbell's opinion, Huave is more likely connected to Oto-Manguean, as suggested by Morris Swadesh.

Defensive back Colin Samuel became the third UCLA football player to announce he was departing this week when he tweeted Thursday that he would be spending his last season of eligibility elsewhere as a graduate transfer.
Samuel, a redshirt junior, joins receiver Audie Omotosho and running back Brandon Stephens in leaving the Bruins. Samuel played in five games last season as a reserve in the secondary and on special teams before suffering a season-ending knee injury against Utah in October.
UCLA is also losing true freshman tight end Matt Alaimo, who is reportedly transferring to Rutgers, in part to be closer to his home in Paramus, N.J. Alaimo did not appear in a game last season.
Defensive lineman Chigozie Nnoruka and linebacker Jaelan Phillips previously announced they were leaving UCLA.

Edmonton Open: A Brief History
Posted on June 26, 2014 by J. Kim
that in 1939, local businessman J.C. Burger donated a trophy to the then Edmonton Table Tennis Association (ETTA) for an annual Edmonton Table Tennis Championships? Mr. Burger was the owner of J.C. Burger Lumber Co. Ltd, and the prime sponsor of our club's very first annual tournament, now called the Edmonton Open. Here's Mr. Burger's company sponsoring a sign in Edmonton during World War II, during the early years of the ETTA:
In the midst of the hard bat era, the first winner of the J.C. Burger Trophy for the 1939 Open Singles Championships was W.A. McGillivray. Hong Mar, a celebrity in the local Chinese community won the Edmonton Open Singles Championships multiple times in the 1950's, 60's and 70's. Subsequent winners have included nationally ranked players from the United States and Canada. Several finalists have also represented Alberta in the national championships and other international table tennis events.
The winner of the Edmonton Open with the highest ever world ranking (#75) played for Singapore's national team and won the open title before becoming Canada's national team coach. Last year's winner Nathaniel Curran, from the United States, was a multiple time medalist at the U.S. Junior Olympics and a nationally ranked player in the U.S.
The Edmonton Open has come a long way since the old days of the ETTA. Today's version regularly attracts talented table tennis players from all over Alberta as well as competitors from Manitoba, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, The Yukon and Northwest Territories. The tournament averages 150 to 200 competitors and is organized to Table Tennis Canada's (TTCAN) 3-star standard. This year, a total prize pool of $2,625 is up for grabs with the top prize of $750 going to the winner of the Open Singles division. There are events for males and females, juniors, novice, intermediate, expert, specific age groups and doubles.
The 2014 Edmonton Open Table Tennis Championships takes place on September 6 and 7 at University of Alberta's Saville Community Sports Centre. Registration fee for a singles event is only $15. Spectators are admitted to the event free of charge. If you would like to register for the tournament, click HERE. Learn more about our club and who we are.
Edmonton Table Tennis Club (ETTC) is a non-profit society managed entirely by a volunteer board of directors. We are steadfast advocates for the sport of table tennis in Alberta, providing an affordable means of health and wellness to generations of Edmontonians since 1939. We host the annual Edmonton Open Table Tennis Championships and Friday night weekly tournaments. We hold three to four practice sessions a week and offer professional coaching at a world class facility. We participate in the Active For Life program and partner with local schools to introduce table tennis to the next generation of Canadian youth. Our motto is "Table Tennis For Life".

The Married at First Sight editing fail that has everyone in stitches.
Video by MWN
My favourite genre of story as of late can be summed up as follows: Married at First Sight editing fail.
I care so much.
When you're dedicating six hours a week (maybe more – I'm not keen on calculating it tbh) to one television show, you get really excited when there's a mistake.
And goodness, have there been mistakes. Like the time Davina apparently finished her dessert before it was even served. Or Patrick miraculously changed shirts in the middle of making breakfast.
Luckily, Married at First Sight fans are particularly observant, and therefore, we have yet another example. And this time it involves everyone's favourite husband-turned-demon, Nasser.
Listen to Clare and Jessie Stephens discuss the latest episode of Married at First Sight on our recap podcast. Post continues after audio.
In case you missed it, Nasser went to stay with his fake wife Gab in an apartment she was renting, but after one night, he claimed it was haunted and left.
This is problematic for two reasons. First, you're a 50-year-old man why do you believe in ghosts, and second, if you're convinced the place is haunted, WHY LEAVE YOUR FAKE WIFE THERE ALONE.
Ever since, Nasser appears to have adopted a completely different personality, hence the assumption that he is now possessed by a demon.
That's why the editing fail involving him is so goddamn funny. Because is it really an editing fail, or evidence of spirits messin' with things?
On Tuesday night's episode, Nasser woke up in Gab's rented apartment, and complained that the bed was broken and he needed help getting up. But when he later returned to examine the broken bed, IT WAS A DIFFERENT BED ALTOGETHER.
Is this exorcist-type magic? Or just a totally inconsistent story line?
Perhaps we'll never know - but one thing's for sure: somewhere between going to bed in that apartment, and waking up the next morning, a demon possessed Nasser's body and now he's being mean to Gab. And I'm not here for it.

Helene Hegemann (born 19 February 1992 in Freiburg im Breisgau) is a German writer, director, and actress. As a young writer her work was highly praised,
but her first novel, Axolotl Roadkill, sparked  a plagiarism controversy. The book has since been translated in various languages.

Life
She was raised by her divorced mother, a graphic artist and painter.  After her mother's death, Hegemann moved in with her father.
She began writing and first gained attention with her blog. On 6 December 2007, her play, Ariel 15 premiered in Berlin at Ballhaus Ost, directed by Sebastian Mauksch.
Hegemann called her play a literary fairy tale piece.
Deutschland Radio adapted it as a radio drama in 2008.
That same year, a screenplay she wrote at 14 was developed. It was underwritten by the Federal Cultural Foundation.
The resulting film, Torpedo, a youth drama, premiered in 2008 at the Hof International Film Festival and ran in German cinemas in summer 2009. It won the Max Ophüls Prize. Hegemann credits the Jean-Luc Godard film Weekend as a major influence on her writing style.

In 2009, Hegemann played a role in the episodic film Germany 09, by Nicolette Krebitz. Hegemann appeared in the segment "Die Unvollendete", where Ulrike Meinhof and Susan Sontag meet.

Hegemann lives in Berlin with her partner Andrea Hanna Hünniger and studies at a high school for non-traditional students.

In 2013, her second novel Jage zwei Tiger and in 2018 the third novel Bungalow were published.
