YouTube Launches Widescreen Format

clipped from www.nowpublic.com

For everyone tired of the tiny, pixelated, lo-res, boxed format of YouTube clips, you'll be pleased to know that the video sharing site has launched a fancy new widescreen format that allows all videos to be viewed in higher quality and in a 'fat' 16:9 aspect ratio.

YouTube Widescreen

This moves definitely paves the way for YouTube's future plans to screen full-length movies on the site, as no one wants to watch a feature film in a tiny 4:3 window.

AMD Phenom II Quad Core Overclocked to 6.3Ghz

clipped from www.physorg.com
Picture courtesy of AMD
AMD has been showing off their soon to be released 45nm "Deneb" desktop chips which have been overclocked to 6.3Ghz
The Phenom II parts were also able to hit 4GHz with air cooling and 5GHz with dry ice cooling.

AMD stated that the extra level of headroom towards dramatic overclocking capacities on the Phenom II is due to a combination of architectural improvements over the original Phenoms first released late in 2007. In comparison to Intel´s top Core i7 processor listed as a 3.2 GHz part has been overclocked to 4.5 GHz on air cooling alone and some claim to have taken it to 5.7GHz using liquid nitrogen.
The Phenom II chip is due out sometime in the first quarter of 2009 and will be listed to run at 3.0 GHz off the shelf.

Records tipped to tumble in 2009, thanks to new starting blocks

clipped from www.physorg.com
Tunesias Oussama Mellouli. Revolutionary starting blocks are expected to send world swimming records tumbling again in 2009 after an Olympic year when hi-tech suits helped competitors go faster than ever
Revolutionary starting blocks are expected to send world swimming records tumbling again in 2009, after an Olympic year when hi-tech suits helped competitors go faster than ever.

The newly designed platforms -- whose forward-leaning wedge shape allows swimmers to propel themselves further into pools -- are to be introduced at next year's World Championships in Rome.
The "adjustable slanted footrest allows swimmers to use a crouch start with the rear-positioned leg at a 90-degree angle at the knee, generating an optimal starting profile,"
"With the rear support, the speed at which one can leave the block will be much more important,"
"If a swimmer has more speed at the beginning, he will go further into the water. So there will be less swimming and more energy available for the entire race."

Granny Pool (flat) to solve housing shortage

while looking for home for last 6 months..i never seen so many houses with pools! You'd think there's a water shortage in Sydney! Or no beaches! But everyone wants a patch of chlorine and spend thousands a year maintaining it! Suckers i say.
clipped from www.smh.com.au

An architectural firm believes backyard swimming pools should be emptied and transformed into subterranean granny flats, complete with a small bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, garden alcove and rooftop windows.

created in response to former premier Morris Iemma's announcement in July that the Government would modify housing codes to make it easier for homeowners to build "secondary dwellings" in backyards.
By 2036 more than 630,000 new homes will be needed to accommodate Sydney's population, which is expected to grow to 6 million. But instead of turning traditionally low-rise suburbs into vast stretches of apartment blocks, part of the growth could be housed within some of NSW's 360,000 swimming pools

33 Famous People Who Have Been Homeless

Every day, we walk past people in the streets without having the slightest clue that they are homeless because they do not fit the stereotypical image. Even of those that do fit the common-held image, you simply cannot tell by looking at them what past contribution to society they may have made or what contribution they may be capable of producing in the future. You never know what value or talent could be concealed behind the grubby faced facade.
The following persons have all experienced homelessness at some point in their lives. Some only briefly and some for many years. Some have risen to fame from poverty while others have declined from wealth to destitution. Some possess extreme intelligence, others artistic talent but all have made positive contribution.

Pilot Whales Die in Mass Stranding - Tasmania

clipped from www.nowpublic.com
Pilot whales at sea

52 pilot whales found themselves stranded on a remote Tasmanian beach, and only 13 are still alive.

The whales came ashore yesterday on a high tide at little-used Anthony's Beach, near Stanley. Most were dead before they were found by a woman walking her dog, who called wildlife officials.
The whales were discovered by a member of the public at Stanley on the island's north-west coast, local parks manager Chris Arthur said in a statement.

An attempt would be made to rescue the surviving animals on Sunday, he said.

"We have equipment and whale rescue trailers coming from around the state," Arthur said.

There are fears if the ransom is paid other super-tankers will be targeted
Somali pirates have been paid more than $150m
in ransoms in the past 12 month

Ninety-five attacks have been recorded off the Somali coast this year, including the recent capture of a Saudi tanker carrying a $100m cargo of oil.

Several navies have already engaged in battles against the pirates.

Sailors seized by Somali pirates usually have to wait 45 days or more for the ships' owners to pay the ransom and win their release, he says.

On Thursday, Maersk, one of the world's biggest shipping firms, announced that some of its fleet, mainly tankers, would no longer use the Gulf of Aden unless there were more naval escorted convoys.

The UN Security Council is due to renew a six-month-old resolution specifying the terms under which foreign navies can pursue pirates into Somali waters

Man Builds Noah's Ark

Man Builds Noah's Ark
(exact scale given in Bible)
Working Replica of Noah's Ark Opened In SCHAGEN, Netherlands.

The massive central door in the side of Noah's Ark was opened the first crowd of curious townsfolk to behold the wonder. Of course, it's only a replica of the biblical Ark , built by Dutch Creationist Johan Huibers as a testament to his faith in the literal truth of the Bible.
The ark is 150 cubits long, 30 cubits high and 20 cubits wide. That's two-thirds the length of a football field and as high as a three-story house. Life-size models of giraffes, elephants, lions, crocodiles, zebras, bison and other animals greet visitors as they arrive in the main hold. A contractor by trade, Huibers built the ark of cedar and pine.
Construction began in May 2005.
There is enough space near the keel for a 50-seat film theater where kids can watch a video that tells the story of Noah and his ark.

Worlds Most Bizarre and Intriguing Hot Air Balloons

As the oldest successful form of human-carrying flight technology, the ingenious application of basic scientific principles for hot air balloons have transcended from the centuries-old creations to use for recreation and sport today. Festivals and competitions have spawned a wide array of contraptions from inventive forms of advertising to some of the most bizarre and crazy designs in the form of hot dogs, funky animals, weird monsters, ‘fearsome’ dragons, and even space shuttles.

The first clearly recorded instance of balloon passengers were not humans, but a sheep, a duck and a chicken on an 8-minute flight over France on September 19 1783, in the Montgolfier brothers’ first demonstration flight for King Louis XVI, proving that humans would be able to breathe at these higher elevations.

Japanese Banks face Uncertainties (humor)

I've just read that uncertainty has now hit the Japanese banking sector:

In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded.

Sumo Bank has gone belly up.

Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.

And , it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and most likely will go for a song...

While today, shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.

Hopefully, Samurai Bank can soldier on following sharp cutbacks.

And Ninja Bank is reported to have taken a huge hit, but they remain in the black.

Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared that staff may get a raw deal!

More young couples are forgoing Western rituals for the ancient Han way

Han ethnic group is the biggest in China, accounting for more than 90 percent of the population.

Yet many of their traditions were relegated to history, especially during the chaos of the Cultural Revolution

the richly embroidered, crimson costumes and intricate traditions of the ancient Han way.
This idea is very popular among young people, especially those born in the 1980s
younger generation needs to have some special cultural characteristics to express themselves, and maintain their difference from others

Han couples literally tie the knot — the couple drinking tea from cups tied together with a red string — as these are highly symbolic in Han weddings.

According to Chinese lore, a deity who lives on the moon ties a red string around the ankles of a man and a woman who are fated to be husband and wife — therefore no matter how far and long apart they may be, the two will eventually get married.

Great Depression 2 by 2011= here's why

We'll be in Great Depression 2 by 2011 -- here are 30 reasons why - MarketWatch
So here's a sequel to my predictions of 2000 and 2004, with a look three years ahead:
First. Dot-com crash
We pinpointed the dot-com crash at its peak, in a March 20, 2000 column: "Next crash? Sorry, you won't see it coming." Bulls-eye: The dot-com bubble popped. The economy went into a 30-month recession. The stock market lost $8 trillion. And today, over eight years later, the market is still roughly 40% below its 2000 peak. See previous Paul B. Farrell.
Factor in inflation and the average stock has lost well over 50% of its value. Stocks have proven to be a very big loser, a bad investment for Americans, thanks to Wall Street's selfish greed, plus the complicity and naiveté of politicians, press and public.
Second. Subprime meltdown
We reported on warnings of another crash coming as early as 2004, wrote a sequel, also titled "Next crash? Sorry, you won't see it coming." Yes, we were early, but in good company. We wrote many more warning columns. Few listened.
Subsequent events, notably former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan's admission of his failures in congressional testimony, prove that if he and other Reaganomic ideologues weren't so myopic and intransigent about proving their free-market deregulation theories, they could have acted earlier and prevented today's colossal mess. Instead, their ideology kept the bubble blowing, delayed the pop, making matters worse.
So once again, as history proves over and over, ideology trumps common sense, reality and the facts. Greed drives ideologues to blow bubbles. They pop. Crashes happen. The public is collateral damage.

Power Consumption of e7200

clipped from www.xbitlabs.com
The CPUs were loaded with Prime95 25.5.

As might have been expected, the new 45nm Core 2 Duo E7200 is superior to its predecessor Core 2 Duo E4700 not only in sheer performance but also in power consumption. Wolfdale CPUs have proved they are more economical than their 65nm predecessors in our previous tests, so these numbers cannot surprise us. We can also note that the Core 2 Duo E7200 consumes less power than the Core 2 Duo E8200 which has a larger L2 cache and a slightly higher clock rate. It means that the Core 2 Duo E7200 is not only the most economical Wolfdale currently but also the most economical desktop dual-core processor in general! It needs less power than a Celeron E1200 under load.

 blog it

overclock the e7200

clipped from www.xbitlabs.com
the Core 2 Duo E7200 has a 266MHz FSB and, consequently, a rather high frequency multiplier, 9.5x.
You won’t have to lift the FSB frequency too high when overclocking the new CPU and you can achieve good results on any mainboard.

At a voltage of 1.4V, which is quite safe for continuous use of a Wolfdale, our CPU was stable at a clock rate of 3.9GHz.

Take note that the CPUZ utility reports a core voltage of 1.344V. It’s not an error. The screenshot was taken under load (Prime95 utility), so you see the Vdroop effect here.

noted in our previous reviews that Wolfdale series CPUs responds with increased overclockability to an increase in the core voltage. The Core 2 Duo E7200 is not an exception. Increasing the voltage more you can achieve even higher CPU clock rates. Just don’t forget about proper cooling.
 blog it

Influence of L2 Cache Size on e7200

clipped from www.xbitlabs.com
The release of the first Wolfdale processor with only half the cache memory of the previous models made us curious about the influence of cache
To perform the test we made our Core 2 Duo E7200 work as a Core 2 Duo E8200, i.e. at a frequency of 2.66GHz with a 1333MHz FSB. It’s easy to realize: the default frequency multiplier of the Core 2 Duo E7200 is 9.5x and can be lowered to 7x. Overclocking the FSB from 266 to 333MHz is not a problem. The resulting CPU frequency is close to the default one
see no catastrophic performance hit
Games suffer the most, having a performance hit of 9-10%. The speed of archiving is considerably lower, too. The other applications are quite favorable to the Wolfdale with 3MB L2 cache, running at similar speed on both versions of the 45nm core. The average performance loss with the reduced-cache Wolfdale is about 5%.

Core i7 - Intel Launches New Desktop Processor -

Intel Launches New Desktop Processor | Gadget Lab from Wired.com
Following AMD's launch of its latest server chips last week, it's Intel's turn to be in the spotlight.

Intel plans to launch its newest generation of desktop processors on Monday. Called Core i7, the chips are aimed at the high-end desktop and gaming market.

The move puts Intel ahead of its rival AMD by more than a few months, as AMD's comparable desktop processor isn't scheduled to launch until early next year.

"AMD now just doesn't have a competitive chip against Intel on the desktop," says Patrick Wang, an analyst with brokerage firm Wedbush Morgan.

And until AMD launches its product, Intel is going to be the only option for consumers who want the latest chips for their computers, says Wang.

The Core i7 will be almost four to six times faster than Intel's current platform, says the company, and will have greater power efficiency than ever. It is based on the 45-nanometer production technology that first appeared in a server chip called Xeon (aka Penryn), which debuted earlier this year.

The 45-nm chips utilize smaller circuitry than the previous, 65-nm generation, making them faster, and also enabling Intel to manufacture them more cheaply.

The new Core i7 chips are based on a newly designed microarchitecture called Nehalem, which includes major design changes in areas such as power management and integrated memory control.

The first three quad-core Core i7 chips from Intel will reintroduce "hyperthreading" technology, which gives the chips the ability to execute 8 threads simultaneously on 4 processing cores, greatly increasing their processing power. Hyperthreading was seen earlier in Pentium 4 chips and some Xeon processors from Intel.

Core i7 processors are also different from their predecessors in that they have "QuickPath," a new microarchitecture that integrates memory controller into each microprocessor. QuickPath will replace Front Side Bus used in Xeon and Itanium platforms.

The move increases the bandwidth directly available to the processor
