NTRODUCTION With the GeForce 9-series NVIDIA has created quite a lot of confusion. Instead of a major update it seems that most GeForce 9 cards are merely updated versions of GeForce 8 cards, and unfortunately named so you cannot figure out which card is based on which. The GeForce 9800GTX is a perfect example. While the name [...]

Added today from the Petaluma Argus Courier:Petaluma has hopes of a national ranking.The following is Bjorn Griepenburg's account of Petaluma's trip to the Nike Team Nationals this past weekend as they competed in the Open Race and had an outstanding effort. Bjorn, Petaluma's 5th man at NTN, is standing far right on the picture to the left courtesy of Bill Yungert.Our team’s trip to the Nike Team Nationals was a perfect way to end a great cross country season. We went up to Portland with the plan to relax and soak in the experience while enjoying ourselves, which we unquestionably succeeded in doing.For Cole Yungert and myself, this represented our last high school cross country race, so we obviously wanted to go out with hard fought races. Everyone else did too—after state, the seven of us came together and talked about our race, realizing that no one met his individual goal. I think we were all a bit disappointed with the times we ran, although we were ecstatic at the

DATELINE: LOS ANGELES, CAThe Wiltern Theatre is an exceptional place to view live music events. It is a historical landmark in Los Angeles and is considered one of the finest examples of art deco architecture in the United States. This theatre has hosted some of the biggest names in the music industry such as The Rolling Stones and Radiohead. On September 17th I had the pleasure of checking out Swedish indie rockers Peter, Bjorn and John in this legendary setting!Swedish Imports Peter, Bjorn and JohnMy only knowledge of this band is their huge international hit, "Young Folks,” and I was interested in seeing what a live performance would be like. The trio based out of Stockholm are touring to promote the album “Writers Block.” They appeared in LA with two opening acts; The Clientele from Hampshire, England and Marissa Nadler from Boston. Both opening acts were impressive in their own right.The show opened with Marissa Nadler who is a solo act who may be considered a dream-f

The Baby Bjorn was great for us when baby was under 20 lbs! I used it for walks, for grocery shopping and for doing some housework. My baby's father and even his grandfather wore the Baby Bjorn. When baby was newborn, I would wear him facing in, so he could snuggle against my chest. As he got older, more alert and interested and more able to hold his head, I wore him facing out. This was a great way to grocery shop because my baby couldn't stand to be in the car seat. I think that "baby wearing" helped us to combat the colic. Now that baby is getting bigger (6 months, over 20 lbs) he is just too heavy for me to wear him in the Baby Bjorn.This item is expensive! Luckily my cousin loaned me hers. I have put it in the washer and dryer several times and it has worn well. I would highly recommend this item and it is definitley something you could buy at a consignment shop.RATING: *****

This was a heck of a show. To make up for last time, I brought along my DSLR and took lots of pictures. Unfortunately, since I'm a super amateur and the lighting was all over the place, I only ended up keeping about 70 of the 300 or so that I took.The venue was pretty spectacular. It's actually an old theatre, with ornate ceiling coffers and a balcony, which has its seats removed for shows. Even the artists remarked on how nice the place was.The first set of openers was a Three Pints favourite, Au Revoir Simone. They were as cute as can be, and the music was spot on. One thing I never realized was just how much gear they have. They each had about two keyboards at their disposal, a big one and a smaller one, and Heather had an electronic drum thing that she would whack at occasionally. They also used some maracas and a tambourine at one point. All in all, a very awesome set from a very awesome trio.Highlight:Heather asking the light guy to stop flashing the stage lights since she'd h

A court battle over who owns the rights to the rights of one of super-band Abba’s musical hits has been decided. Abba members Bjorn Ulvaeus, and Benny Andersson have come out as owner of the rights. The writer who wrote a first draft to a show called Kristina from Duvemala, Carl-Johan Seth had argued he owned the rights, but the Abba stars returned an argument that the first draft was unusable. Staffan Michelson, Mr Seth’s lawyer said he was very disappointed and his client would appeal against the decision. Carl-Johan Seth had originally said in court that he should be considered the main writer, however, Bjorn and Benny that they had not used Seth’s script but had used a script written by director Lars Rudolfsson and dramatist Jan Mark. The two Abba stars now hope to take Kristian from Duvemala to Broadway. ---Related Articles at In Entertainment:Britney out of Rehab as Kevin Federline goes to CourtAbba movie gets the Bond treatmentR.

And on today's show we have...Writer's BlockPeter Bjorn And JohnThe progression of our beloved genre has been pockmarked with events and music that, to a large extent, has been the creation of dynamic imaginations, often fragile sensibilities and Death Cab For Cutie. But what happens when the lexicon that they strive so hard to create, suddenly faces a brooding reality where extremes of opinion decide whether something is worth trying or not? Writer's block?Peter Moren, Bjorn Yttling and John Eriksson bring us an LP that sees them exploring new soundscapes, experimenting with already diverse styles and delivering a very, very classy record. The trio from Stockholm break the notions of genre definition with a confident album that is indie-everything and has seen a lot of mainstream success as well. It's funny because all through the record, you don't really care to 'fit' it in.With Writer's Block, the trio have broken new ground for themselves. Lighter, more subtle arrangements

New video from everyone's favourite Swedes, Peter, Bjorn & John. The third video from their album Writer's Block, "Objects of My Affection" is themed on a strange video game in which a girl with no bones falls via gravity (and user input) through a course of floating balls. Yeah. Anyways, enjoy the nasally awesomeness that is this song.Also, just as a quick aside:Peter Bjorn and John = PB & J = Peanut Butter & Jam = conspiracy?
