Intel Ivy Bridge-EP Engineering Sample Shows Up on Ebay
An Intel Ivy Bridge-EP Engineering Sample has popped up on Ebay and is being sold at $166.50 US for users willing to buy the latest LGA 2011 processor. The user selling the CPU is still confused whether based on Ivy Bridge-EP or Haswell-EP architecture.
Ivy Bridge-EP Engineering Sample For Sale on Ebay
The CPU looks more to be an Ivy Bridge-EP sample since Haswell-EP won't show up till late 2014, even in ES state, the chip would be hard to get hands on if you're not an Intel employee yourself. Q-Spec on the CPU lists it as a Q1DF ES chip, other details have been blurred out for unknown reasons. The Ivy Bridge-EP sample fits on the LGA 2011 socket as demonstrated by the seller and is compatible with the X79 chipset. The only downside of the ES chip is that the seller couldn't get it to run since Ivy Bridge-EP / E chips would require a mandatory update to BIOS before being compatible with the LGA 2011 motherboard itself.
However, if the chip has a defect, than no need to worry since the seller has got a tray full of Ivy Bridge-EP ES to be tested by willing buyers. You can find the listing here.
It should be noted that Ivy Bridge-E which launches in Q3 2013 feature Quad Channel memory controller and can support 8 GB of DDR3-1066/1333/1600/1866 per DIMM slot. PCI-e 3.0 would also be supported by the new processors churning out 40 lanes and four lanes for PCI-e 2.0. They improve overall IPC performance over Sandy Bridge-E. Ivy Bridge-EP on the other hand would be mammoth chips for workstation users with 12 Cores and 30 MB L3 cache, if this ES chips turns out to be a 12 Core Ivy Bridge-EP ES than you'd probably be a lucky guy to have one of these chips enabled inside your LGA 2011 PC.

NIAGARA, N.Y. (WIVB) — On Tuesday night, Amazon met with Niagara Town Board members at a workshop to discuss the new mega-distribution facility planned for Lockport Road.
Project leaders from Amazon, Phillips Lytle LLP, JB2 Parnters, LLC, Langan Engineering and SRF Associates presented to the board members. This is similar to the presentations they made previously with the Niagara County Planning Board and Zoning Board.
Initial planning stages are in the works for a giant new distribution facility at 8995 Lockport Rd. in the Town of Niagara. This warehouse will be a first mile facility, meaning it will primarily serve local residents who buy products from the company.
“If you’re buying your annual Bills gear, it’s going to be stored in a facility like this close by,” Amazon Economic Development Manager Maura Kennedy said.
Niagara County officials confirmed the e-commerce giant was coming to Niagara County, after months of going by the moniker Project FiFi. The project cleared the County Planning Board last month.
The proposal will create jobs both at Amazon and during the construction process.
“We’re really looking to bring economic opportunity to the jurisdiction through this investment. We’re looking to create 1,000 full time positions. All [of them] on average make $18 or more per hour,” Kennedy added.
One main concern from the Town Board members and residents is traffic. The site has three entrances off of Lockport Road. Almost 500 trucks will enter and exit the facility over the course of 24 hours, seven days per week. There is also an exit on Tuscarora Road for passenger vehicles. An initial traffic assessment was completed by SRF Associates, which concluded that peak hours for the facility do not interrupt prime commuting times at the main intersections.
“They have shifts that occur in the morning and in the evening. Those shift times don’t overlap with the intersection peak hours,” Amy Dake, senior managing traffic engineer at SRF Associates, said.
Some suggestions included making adjustments to Interstate 190 to accommodate more traffic. Additionally, the Board wants to learn more about the economics and how the facility will generate money for the town.
“Typically a facility of this size is going to generate significantly more in tax revenue than it will in cost to the town,” Kim Mason, partner at Phillips Lytle LLP, continued.
Local officials were mostly optimistic, saying they want the project to go through, from what they have seen so far.
“We are a little guarded because we are concerned about our constituents, but I can’t say a negative about anything so far. I think you guys did your homework before you even brought us a presentation,” Deputy Supervisor Charles Teixeira said.
The next steps will come in May when the project goes before the Town, Zoning and Planning Boards again. There will also be a public comment period before a final vote.
The company was already planning to call Western New York home, but that project fell apart when residents on Grand Island pushed back in 2020. In the same year, Town of Niagara Supervisor Lee Wallace sent a letter, saying his town was “fully on board and committed to assist in bringing this great project to Niagara County.”
The facility will be four stories, more than 3 million square-feet, built on a 216-acre plot and will feature 55 loading docks, 414 trailer parking stalls, 1,755 parking stalls and two guard buildings. This will cover 7% of the property, according to the application by JB2 Partners, LLC., and 105 acres will be left untouched.
The Town of Niagara posted several of the planning documents on their website. Meeting minutes from the March Planning Board meeting can be found here.

Challenges in System Safety and Security of Future Automotive Platforms
For decades, safety was the dominating topic for cyberphysical systems. Safety of a system ensures that in the case of faults, the system is still highly unlikely to cause harm to users, capital infrastructure, or the environment. With the advent of connectivity, security is now becoming an equally important topic as connectivity enables scalable attacks. Unfortunately the complexity of today’s systems prevents engineers from gaining a deep understanding of systems, and consequently, new approaches for safety and security are necessary.
This talk presents these challenges in the context of automotive systems. The talk discusses automation and autonomy of automotive systems, safety vs. security for connected vehicles, and in general shows the need for merging safety and security research for further advances in electronics, software, and systems for next-generation automated/autonomous systems.
Sebastian Fischmeister is an Associate Professor at the University of Waterloo, leads the Real-time Embedded Software Group, and is appointed as Executive Director at the Waterloo Centre for Automotive Research.
Sebastian Fischmeister performs systems research at the intersection of software technology, distributed systems, and formal methods. His preferred application area is safety-critical embedded real-time systems. Key highlights of his research include a framework for Real-time Ethernet, dynamic binary instrumentation for time-aware systems, and real-time capable runtime monitoring. A variant of his real-time communication framework was used to promote the ASTM F29.21 standard on the Integrated Clinical Environment. Jointly with industry and researchers, he built the APMA Connected Vehicle Technology Demonstrator as well as several CES demos including the Renesas 2017 and 2017 Autonomous Vehicle as well as the DENSO 2018 Driving AI demonstrator. He is now working on data-driven analysis for assessing the safety and security of mission-critical systems. Sebastian is a licensed Canadian Professional Engineer, and active in international standardization through committee memberships in the Standards Council of Canada, the International Electrotechnical Commission, and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.

You could argue that this post doesn't belong on my kitchen blog...it's more of a Maker Manns thing. Fair enough. But it was done in my kitchen, with my stove, with my pots, with my knives and my kitchen twine, and I sacrificed the Bodom glass out of my French press. So, I'm still calling it a culinary adventure!
Two of our best friends had mentioned wanting to come over and make candles. They had the wax and the wicks. So, on the first full day of Christmas break from school (last night), Jake picked them up and I rushed home from work to make dinner - jasmine rice, beetroot and pumpkin curry, and mekaral salad. That's for another post. Back to candle making....
After our Sri Lankan-themed dinner, we cranked up the Christmas tunes and went to work.
- wicks (at first we used some pre-fabricated wicks they brought, then we moved to my 100% cotton kitchen twine)
- knife for chipping the wax into small pieces
- tall canister, either tempered glass or metal ,that will fit inside another pot
Place your wax chips in a tall container that can withstand heat. As I mentioned, I used my Bodum glass. Place that container in a pot of water where the water comes up about half way on the canister. Heat gently until the wax chips melt.
Have a bucket of water near your work area.
Hold the wick by one end and dip it in the hot wax. Dip it into the cold water. Repeat.
That's all there is to it...
Then hang them somewhere to harden completely.
D and I made small candles to put on his birthday cake next week. And, I think, everyone had a good time. We'll definitely do it again soon.
Have you ever hand-dipped candles? Would love some tips on how to add color and fragrance.

MUSIC; Two Noted Pianists to Visit County
By ROBERT SHERMAN
Published: September 29, 1991
TWO great American masters of the keyboard are performing in Westchester next Saturday: Leonard Pennario, with the Westchester Symphony at the Performing Arts Center of the State University of New York at Purchase, and Abbey Simon, in a solo recital at the Rye Country Day School.
Mr. Pennario, whose renown dates from his collaboration with Jascha Heifetz and Gregor Piatigorsky in the 1950's, has performed with nearly every major orchestra in the United States. He will play the Grieg A minor Concerto.
The 8 P.M. concert will also be the debut of 23-year-old Anthony Aibel as music director of the Westchester Symphony. The concert will open with the overture to "The Marriage of Figaro," marking the Mozart bicentennial, and will close with Dvorak's Eighth Symphony, commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Czech composer's birth. For reservations, call 835-8481.
Abbey Simon, who made his recital debut in 1940 as a teen-age winner of the Naumburg Award, has built a career in Europe and America as what Harold Schonberg in The New York Times called "a super virtuoso." In an 8 P.M. concert at the new auditorium of the Rye Country Day School, Mr. Simon will play works of Czerny, Schubert, Chopin and Prokofiev.
After the recital, he will remain on stage to talk about his musical and pianistic methods. He will then return to the school next Sunday at 2 P.M. to conduct a three-hour master class for professionals and advanced students; the session is free to Saturday ticket holders.
The two Simon events, with their emphasis on audience participation, are part of an experimental "Making Connections" series sponsored by the Rye Arts Center. The series actually begins at 10 A.M. Friday when I will be host the at a free "Learning to Listen" session for high school students and their teachers. Featured in conversation and performances will be three 14-year-olds: Albert Kim of Hartford, a pianist; Edward Arron, a 10th grader at Horace Greeley School in Chappaqua, and Colin Jacobsen of Great Neck, L.I., a violinist.
Felicity Dell'Aquila, the center's arts consultant, said that the aim of the musical weekend "is to explore the art form of music through the eyes of the artist and to illuminate a musician's life at various stages of a career, from early student days through the artistry of the mature virtuoso." For more details on these and other events at the Rye Arts Center, call 967-0700.
Will Duchon, a young pianist who made his New York recital debut last October as winner of the Artists International Award, opens the fall season for Performers of Westchester, playing Rachmaninoff, Debussy, Albeniz and Beethoven at a private home in Mamaroneck.
The series, designed to present chamber music in intimate surroundings as originally intended, continues with programs by Dmitri Yablonsky and Oxana Yablonskaya (Oct. 18 and 20), the Orion String Quartet (Oct. 25) and Musical Chairs (Nov. 3). Reservations required; for more details, call 693-1151.
For those whose keyboard preferences lean toward the organ, Timothy Lewis explores three centuries of French organ music, including works of Couperin, Saint-Saens and Dupre, at a 12:30 P.M. recital Wednesday in White Plains's Grace Episcopal Church. On Oct. 16 at 12:30 P.M. at the church, the organist Theodore Gillen will play a half-dozen chorale preludes of Bach; 949-2874.
Turning to vocal art, the New Rochelle Opera is presenting arias, duets and other excerpts from popular stageworks to demonstrate "the passion and fire of opera." Among featured artists at the 2:30 P.M. recital today at the New Rochelle Library are Celeste and Paula Liscio, Terry Lynn Williams and Christopher King, with David Maiullo accompanying at the piano; 632-7878.
Next weekend, vocal opportunities will include folk, classical and theater music, all expressed in a tribute to the late Leonard Bernstein. The program, which opens the "Art of Music" series next Sunday at 3 P.M. in the Hudson River Museum, will be presented by the New York Festival of Song with the New York City Opera soprano Jane Bunnell, the prize-winning young baritone William Sharp and the co-directors and pianists Michael Barrett and Steven Blier.
On the program is the last Bernstein composition, "Arias and Barcarolles," along with excerpts from "Trouble in Tahiti," "On the Town," "Candide" and "West Side Story"; 963-4550, extension 12.
For many folk fans, a Holly Near concert is an opportunity not to be missed. The actress, singer and composer appears with her pianist partner, John Bucchino, at the Riverlovers Second Annual Indoor Folk Festival on Saturday along with the Westchester duo of Mark Reynolds and Kathen Cowan. The concert will be preceded by an audience sing-along led by the Walkabout Clearwater Chorus. Starting time is 7 P.M. for the sing, 8 o'clock for the concert at the Veterans Administration Auditorium, in Montrose; 271-5324.
Those who prefer a group sound can head to the South Salem Library on Saturday at 8 P.M. to hear the vocal-instrumental band Out to Lunch offering an evening of Irish reels, American bluegrass and swing in the library's Folk Music Concert Series; 763-3132.
The Asbury Summer Theater, which now performs year round, is marking the Cole Porter centennial with a revival of "Can-Can." Among the Westchester personalities are the producer, Lu Gmoser of Yonkers; the director, Andrew Gmoser of Mount Vernon; the conductor, Catherine Rowe of Bronxville, and the leading man, Russ Siroco of Hawthorne.
Evening curtains at Crestwood's Asbury United Methodist Church are at 8 o'clock Friday, Saturday and next Sunday, plus Oct. 10, 11 and 12, with a single 2 P.M. matinee on Oct. 12; 961-6968.
For sing-it-yourselfers, the Emelin Theater Community Chorus led by Jena Smith is still accepting members. Singers are invited to try out at Tuesday's 7:30 P.M. rehearsal at the theater in Mamaroneck; 698-7931.
The recorder, mainstay of the Baroque wind section and dulcet-toned ancestor of the flute and piccolo, has found new favor as one of the most inexpensive instruments, not to mention the easiest to learn, even without a teacher. (But it takes a trained virtuoso to do justice to a Vivaldi concerto or to manage the recorder parts in Bach's Fourth Brandenburg Concerto.)
On the fourth Monday of every month -- including tomorrow at 7:45 P.M. -- members of the Westchester Recorder Guild will gather at White Plains's Memorial United Methodist Church. Divided into three groups, depending on each person's level of technical advancement, the players are coached in ensemble performance by early-music specialists. The evenings close with refreshments and a social. Guests are welcome.
The guild also runs recorder workshops throughout the season. For more details, call 739-0567.

By Nicholas Rankin
The real Ian Fleming died on 12 August 1964, a month before the premiere of the third James Bond film Goldfinger. Ian’s thrillers, and the films based on them, were already rising towards their phenomenal worldwide success, although they were still sniffed at by the snootier members of his wife Ann’s circle. The following year, when the novelist and critic Kingsley Amis published his zestful literary appreciation of Fleming’s writing, The James Bond Dossier, Evelyn Waugh remarked to Nancy Mitford: ‘Ian Fleming is being posthumously canonized by the intelligentsia. Very rum.’
Fifty years on, the Fleming icon is being desecrated on television. As a biopic, the fourth and final episode of Fleming is preposterous. It’s early 1945. Boyish Ian Fleming (Dominic Cooper) demonstrates some Q-style gadgets — a poison-gas pen and a cigarette-lighter camera whose film fits in a golf ball — to the cigar-chomping American Colonel William Donovan (Stanley Townsend) and says they will win the war. Donovan dismisses his toys because he’s after bigger fish: Hitler’s atomic bomb program! Where are the ‘Nazi nuclear secrets’? Ian Fleming draws four lines of retreat on a map of Germany. They intersect at Tambach Castle! That’s the hiding place, and he must race there before the Americans or the Russians. ‘Leave it to me!’
Taking with him a lone sergeant and a couple of Sten-guns, Fleming drives in a jeep through southern Germany, looking for ‘Nazi documents, nuclear secrets’. The snowy woods are full of last-ditch ‘Werewolves’ with scars on their brutal, stop-at-nothing faces. At the castle, a German admiral is protecting the secret stuff – ‘my life’s work.’ The Werewolves attack; the sergeant holds them off till he dies, actorishly; Fleming murders a Nazi with his bare hands, puts on his uniform and escapes in a truck with the admiral and all the papers. Russian troops stop them; the German admiral is shot, but with one bound (‘I am a British officer!’) Fleming escapes with the precious documents.
This being Fleming, it goes without saying that none of this happened. Or if anything like it did, they get it wrong. In Ian Fleming’s real life in the Second World War, he killed no-one, never fired a submachine gun, invented no gadgets, met no Soviet troops. William Donovan, Director of the Office of Strategic Services, was a Major-General at the time, not a Colonel. The real-life ‘Werewolves’ were mostly a fantasy of Joseph Goebbels, enacted by a few kids. Tambach Castle held nearly 500 tons of the German naval archives (far too big to fit in one small truck) and they were captured intact without any shots being fired.
The true story is completely different. Commander Fleming worked for British Naval Intelligence and he was directing his ‘intelligence commando’ teams towards naval targets, not ‘nuclear secrets’. As well as capturing the archives, Fleming’s commandos, 30 Assault Unit or 30AU, hunted down the first German miniature submarine and seized the hydrogen peroxide technology powering both Nazi rockets and a new generation of U-boats that were faster than anything the Allies had. This is the real background to the later James Bond books like Thunderball and Moonraker. At the Walterwerke in Kiel, 30 Assault Unit uncovered a genuine ‘lethal toyshop with its jet-driven explosive hydrofoils, radio-controlled glider bombs, remote-controlled tankettes, rocket-propelled ‘sticky bombs’, silent steam cannons, mine detonators and a new kind of big gun with a fuel injection system in the barrel to extend its range.’ The TV Fleming is like being trapped with a crassly compulsive liar who can’t tell truth from falsehood, and doesn’t want to try.
Ecosse Films have subjected other famous people to screen dramatization, including Queen Victoria, Jane Austen, and Princess Diana. Now John Brownlow (who scripted a biopic about Sylvia Plath) has sold them this pastiche Fleming, which they have made in Hungary. Does truthfulness matter in entertainment? When Darryl F. Zanuck was criticized for altering some events of D-Day for his 1962 epic movie The Longest Day, the producer’s defense was that: ‘There’s nothing duller on the screen than being accurate but not dramatic.’
Inaccurate Fleming isn’t dramatic, simply unbelievable. The credited consultant is John Pearson, the veteran journalist who knew Ian Fleming and wrote the first biography, The Life of Ian Fleming, in 1966. But John Brownlow seems to have mashed up that shrewd book with the jokier ‘fictional biography’ that Pearson wrote in 1973, James Bond: The Authorized Biography. The mix doesn’t work. Whatever else he may have been, in real life Ian Fleming was literate, amusing, inventive, and intelligent. The television Fleming has reduced his life and work to the puerile silliness of what the authentic spy and traitor Kim Philby once dismissed as ‘James Bond idiocy’.
Nicholas Rankin is the author of Ian Fleming’s Commandos: The Story of the Legendary 30 Assault Unit which is publishing in paperback in March. Follow him on Twitter @RankinNick.
