| New chip cooling technology | | 2008-07-07 06:50:00 | | According to Moore's law the density of chips in microprocessors keep doubling every two years. With the increasing density and effectiveness of the current chips the amount of heat generated by these chips is also increasing. To cope with the enormous heat, new technologies will be needed in future to cool the integrated chips that produces much more heat than the current microprocessors.Such a new technology has been developed at Purdue University that uses "microjets" to deposit liquid into tiny channels. This technology is able to remove five times more heat than other experimental high-performance chip-cooling methods.The conventional computer chips usually generate about 100 watts per square centimeter. The chips are air-cooled with finned metal plates called heat sinks and often a small CPU fan. Most of the liquid-cooling techniques are limited to a cooling capacity of about 200 watts per square centimeter. However the new microjet technology is able to cool chips that generate | | By: Let's Talk Electronics | | |

| Wandsworth dog owners required to chip | | 2008-07-07 06:01:40 | | Dog owners in Wandsworth are now required to microchip their pet as part of tough new regulations for estates in the borough.Wandsworth's rott-en loveThe rules will be phased in over 12 months and the council has warned that tenants who fail to comply could lose their homes.It follows two serious attacks in the borough and reports of youths training fighting dogs on the Doddington Estate.Residents in properties owned by Wandsworth council will need to get their dog micro-chipped under new plans announced by the council last week and backed by the RSPCA.Wandsworth, backed by the RSPCA, says it is bringing in the new rules in an effort to tackle problems caused by strays and prevent dogs causing a nuisance to other tenants.The RSPCA said that Wandsworth "will give us some key data and will allow us to convince other local authorities that this approach does work." | | By: The Wandsworth Companion | | |

| A Chip Off the Old Block | | 2008-04-23 10:52:00 | | There's been a lot of hubbub here in New York, and especially on sports (aka knucklehead) radio about Joba Chamberlain, and Hank Steinbrenner (pictured, and that should be "HS" and not "JS") and his recent inane comments about him.Hankenstein's been acting like a two-year-old, and has been demanding that the Yankees move Chamberlain into the rotation now, because he throws 100 MPH and anyone who thinks he should stay in the bullpen must be "an idiot." Talk about idiots. (Kyle Farnsworth throws 100 MPH, too, Hank. Should he start too?)Chamberlain's in the best possible place for himself and the Yankees right now. While he was a starter in college and in the minors, he seems to be a quality eight inning reliever, and that is probably the most valuable commodity in baseball right now. You can't trade for one right now, and if you have one you hold on to it with your life. Quality starters and even closers are more common.Steinbrenner seems to think by putting Chamberlain in the rotation h | | By: The Mighty Quinn Media Machine | | |

Townhead Café in Biggar, which won the 2007 award last Friday, demonstrated a sustainable supply chain as well as tasty grub to nab it the prize. It's little wonder that standards are being squeezed, with over-fishing becoming a serious problem in Britain's waters and the price of cod rocketing through the roof -- celebrity chef Tom Aiken is even opening a Michelin-star green chippy in London with an aim to take on the industrial fishing giants. So the Chip Shop contest, usually judged by a round of mystery shopper visits, now includes an investigation into the sustainability of fish species used and the amount of effort they put into steering customers from those with low stocks.

| Lexus & the Chip Ganassi team win third consecutive Daytona 24 | | 2008-01-29 03:37:38 | | The No.1 Lexus Riley Prototype has won the Daytona 24 race for the third year in a row, marking the first time this has ever been accomplished in the race’s history. Piloted by Scott Pruett, Juan Pablo Montoya, Dario Franchitti and Memo Rojas, the Chip Ganassi team powered through the 24 hour race with none of the problems that beset their competitors: The stat sheet will show the No. 01 won by two laps, led 252 of 695 circuits and the last 100. But for the first 19 hours the race was anything but a walkover, more resembling a last-man-standing test of mechanical preparation, luck, will and ability to not only survive, but thrive in conditions that went from wet to dry and back again. The team did it well enough that aside from an early tire problem, the 2,474.2-mile marathon was trouble-free on the track. The only hiccup came when Franchitti was awakened too late for a stint, forcing Pruett to do extra time, but that didn’t slow them down. Easily one of the most demanding races out there, it’s an amazing achievement to win it just once, nevermind three years running. Congrats to the whole Chip Ganassi team! (Thanks Dan!)

| Do Opponents of S-CHIP Expansion Hate Children? | | 2007-12-18 00:00:00 | | It's hard to say no to children in need. The desire to help children is so fundamental that it can be hard for some people to reject poor public policy if it's enacted in the name of needy kids. This conflict between the desire to protect children and the desire to enact sound fiscal policy is at the center of the S-CHIP debate, a topic we have written about numerous times (here, here and here, among others). Unfortunately, many legislators and voters do not realize that these two goals need not be mutually exclusive; sound fiscal policy helps everyone—adults and children, rich and poor.A new article from the Mises Institute titled "How Can You Oppose Health Care for Children?" analyzes the drawbacks of expanding S-CHIP with higher tobacco taxes, including some of the tax policy concerns we have written about. The article concludes:Those favoring expanding SCHIP trumpet their compassion for children and attack opponents as inexcusably mean. But the Scrooge-v | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

Flatten each scoop with the back of a spoon to about 3 inches in diameter. Bake until the centers are still slightly soft to the touch, 11 to 14minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Makes 12 to 15 cookies. | | By: ALL COOKING | | |

| Chocolate Chip Apple Cake? | | 2007-11-12 08:53:00 | | When I first saw this recipe, I thought it was a weird combo: chocolate chips and apples? But when you bake a lot, you start feeling like you've made everything so I felt adventurous and gave it a shot. It was actually surprisingly good. Lon and Resa, my two dinner companions last night, both complimented the cake.My one complaint would be that the sugars create a harder outside to the cake. But, the inside does stay very moist. You might think that you could just reduce the sugar but the inside of the cake is not very sweet and to me, just right. | | By: FoodMayhem | | |

| Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake | | 2007-09-29 14:09:00 | | Kasi and Stephen stopped by to have a birthday dinner for Kasi. I asked Kasi what she'd like to eat and her answer: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake! 'nuff said. I've made this particular cake before (maybe once or twice) and tastes wonderful. However, I don't often go for this recipe because it needs to be modified to cook correctly, and it has some extra steps that don't add enough value for my taste.The recipe comes from "Star Pooley" as posted on AllRecipes and, as I mentioned, some changes are necessary, just like the last cheesecake recipe I found on AllRecipes -- the one for apple and maple.First of all, Star recommends blind baking the crust. I'm not a fan. But just to be near the recipe I do it for half the time, that is MORE than enough and really superfluous.Second, Star's recipe scale for cookie dough creates at least twice as much as necessary for this cake. And because it's not actually cookie dough (there are no eggs in it), you can't bake off the rest. Star suggests dropping the cookie dough evenly over the entire top of the cake. Maybe if I did that it would be the right amount, but I doubt it. I usually drop in about nine balls of two tablespoons each. The first eight are symmetrically positioned around the outside (about half an inch from the edge). And the ninth is in the center. This puts 1.125 cups of cookie dough into the cake!Finally, Star's cooking recommendations go against my personal beliefs. Star suggests cooking for 40 minutes at 350 deg F then pouring the icing over the hot cake. Oy! My oven, which is the best we could buy (pro-sumer Bluestar) cooks hotter and more evenly than any other I've used. And therefore I only cook cheesecakes for 50 minutes at 350 deg F. In any other, I always do 55 or 60 minutes. Then, and this is critical for ALL CHEESCAKES, do not move the cake. Do the jiggle test (check to make sure it has set around the edges and jiggles in the center), turn off the oven, and leave the oven door open about two inches for an hour. Then you can remove the cake, no sooner.I'm also against icing a warm cake, but in this case I went half way. I let it cool on the counter another hour, then I iced it and let it cool again for another hour before the fridge. This time I came up with a great way of cooling it in the fridge. Instead of covering with saran wrap, which is very close to the cake surface and accumulates a lot of condensation, I used a large cake cover (from a cake carrier). After two hours I wiped down the inside and covered it again. The next day, I replaced it with saran. No water on my cake!Everyone loves this cake, and it was worth fighting with the recipe to make it. Try it out yourself and let me know how it goes...More pictures on Flickr. | | By: FoodMayhem | | |

| No Chip, No Bike In Paris | | 2007-07-28 01:08:00 | | Interesting thing about those cool, new rental bikes in Paris. Turns out, you can't use your standard American credit cards to rent them. As Budget Travel Online points out, the rental bike kiosks accept only credit cards with microchips. These are common in Europe, but not in the United States. This is becoming an increasing problem for Americans trying to use unattended machines to buy gasoline, train tickets and other services in some parts of Europe.

| Parallax Propeller Chip Running Manic Miner | | 2007-05-29 12:46:52 | |
Eight bit microcontrollers can get some real work done but the Parallax Propeller chip puts most microcontrollers to shame. The Parallax Propeller boasts eight - 32 bit processors on one chip! This example of Manic Miner running on the Propeller is an example of the power this chip wields. Hook up a TV, keyboard and a handful of components and you are ready to get your game on! If you want to try it yourself Baggers has provided full code for the game.

| Please Chip In | | 2007-05-29 07:41:29 | | Joe Gandelman founder of The Moderate Voice needs a little help from his friends. His Father is stricken with lung cancer and multiple types of pneumonia and this happened very shortly after he moved his blog to Wordpress Pro. (1200$ minimum). Joe makes a living entertaining/educating children for a living. In order to deal with this time of crisis he's had to cancel shows and buy plane tickets etc etc etc. TMV has been around for years and was voted the Best Centrist Blog of 2006 so it's not like I'm asking you to help out some schmuck like me.So please drop by and hit his tip jar if you can. If you don't have any spare change then at least post a message on your blog asking your readers to help Joe out.As for me, I've already put my money where my mouth is.Note: I do not advise anyone to just go to TMV and click some ads. That would be wrong. Very wrong. Shame on you for even thinking that.

| What Can You Add To A Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe? | | 2006-09-16 11:59:00 | | Remember when you were a kid, and every chocolate chip cookie recipe turned out pretty much the same cookie? Sure, some were crunchy and some were chewy, but they all basically consisted of a sweet dough encasing half-melted chocolate chips.Thanks to the foodie revolution, those days are fast disappearing. Walk down your grocery store's bakery aisle now, and you'll find not just your old-fashioned semi-sweet chips, but a dizzying array of other flavors in chip form. There are peanut butter chips, which taste great right out of the...Read this article and more at AnnsGoodies | | By: AnnsGoodies | | |
