There are various drug treatment centres where men and women that suffers from drug and alcohol addiction could attend. However, shame and embarrasment is one of the key factor that forbids themselves to join these centres. It is us, the citizens that should do a part in assisting family members and loved ones here.

Drug Treatment from the Watershed has had a proven track record of curing and preventing the drug abusers to indulge themselves into drugs again after the cure. They offer medical detoxification and rehabilitation for sufferers from alcoholism and abusers of dangerous drugs. The Watershed started out in the year 1998 and till now, 18,000 abusers were cured and lived a happy life after that. With the full license from the state of Florida, they had supervised drug and alcohol detox and done rehabilitation for the addiction of abusers. Since the overly success rate of the Watershed, many testimonials were written in word of gratitude.

The kernels of the new CPUs are no different from the current 32bit models. The existing 32bit architecture has simply been extended to add 64bit functionality. If the software does not make use of the 64bit functions, the processor runs just like its 32bit predecessor. Athlon 64 CPUs can be found in many newer PCs sold with 32bit Windows XP. The 64bit extensions only come into play after installing the 64bit version ofWindows.

Don’t confuse the 64bit-enabled AMD and Intel CPUs with the fully 64bit processors such as the Intel Itanium or Sun Ultrasparc series, which are based on pure 64bit architecture, These require special operating systems and only run 32bit software in emulation mode.

The existing 32bit register has been extended to 64bit width and additional 64bit registers have been added. The registers act as temporary storage during processing and for storing addresses when addressing memory. The wide registers accelerate the processing when handling data that requires more than 32 bits of storage. These include long integer or double floating point format numbers, which are frequently used in scientific or technical applications.

64bit memory addressing makes it theoretically possible to control 16 Exabytes of memory (2 to the power of 64 bits). At present only 40 bits of physical address space is used, which still allows a Terabyte of Ram to be managed. With 32bit chips, the limit of addressable memory is 4GB.

There are certainly many ways to promote something online. However, www.BackgammonMasters.com has done a promotion of their website with a very unique way for the backgammon game that they are hosting. With the assistance of a video and a mascot, it has certainly attracted my attention and stayed longer at this backgammon web site.

Using a 5 part interactive animation with the title of “Life According to Jean-Claude”, backgammonmasters had somehow succeded in their mission. Jean Claude amused me a lot by its hilarious ramblings on how he reached number 1 in the game. As a part of the branding process, this site has sketched up Jean-Claude, the animated tiger with great care and with much effort. I liked the part where it expressed itself like, “Jean-Claude, how did you do it.” Then he said, “ASPIRATION”. The tone and slang that he used in mimic, was enough to throw me off the chair.

Branding with Jean-Claude is easy. Who can never forget an cute and comical tiger with a Mexican slang. This site has already planned all out for Jean-Claude as the pioneer mascot. Wearing a bit on the rugged site, Jean-Claude does not care whether he lives in the car yard. Proud to be wearing bell bottom shoes, creamed shoes and buttoned up shirt with a large dollar sign around his neck. Aside from the mascot Jean-Claude, backgammonmasters raised publicity the site previously from 3-in-1 game lobby offering online games such as Poker, Backgammon and Perudo (Liar’s Dice).

Take a peep at the video and picture of the ever popular, Jean-Claude!

Basic driver support is available: both the AMD and the Intel test computers booted after installing the 64bit operating system, but not all the built-in components were correctly recognised and some couldn’t be used. Problems occurred particularly with older and less common hardware components. Sound and network cards are good examples, but some more recent peripherals, such as printers, scanners and card readers, were also poorly supported in RC1. There were no 64bit drivers for Microsoft’s own Intellitype keyboards and Intellipoint mice, which meant that special functions such as programmable extra keys couldn’t be used.

As most of you will know, installation doesn’t always go smoothly with brand new devices. In our tests, the Intel PC’s onboard Sata (Serial ATA) controller was not properly supported. As a result, we could not even install Release Candidate 1 without switching to an EIDE drive: the installation failed because Windows could not find a hard disk.

Even drivers explicitly identified as 64bit are not guaranteed to work smoothly while they are still in beta. This was demonstrated during testing with the drivers for the onboard Broadcom Net Extreme 5751 Gigabit network controller on our test PCs.

The manufacturer’s US homepage does list a suitable 64bit driver, but installing it caused a system crash. In this case, it was not critical because RC1 already contains a version that works. There is light at the end of the tunnel however: both ATI and Nvidia, two of the largest graphics chip manufacturers, began to develop 64bit drivers at an early stage. Copies of 64bit optimised drivers in the Catalyst and Forceware series have been available for download from their websites for a few months. This is a sensible approach, especially as in the consumer market it is 3D games which stand to gain most from 64bit technology.

Thanks to the unified driver concept, the drivers can be used with all current and older cards based on ATI or Nvidia technology Despite their beta designation, the 64bit drivers supported all the usual features such as comprehensive quality settings and dual monitors.

For motherboards the basic drivers for current chipsets are already included in the operating system. Nvidia’s 64bit beta driver (6.25 beta) for the older Nforce, Nforce 2, 3 and Pro chipsets were available for download. The main drivers for Sis motherboards are already on the 64bit XP CD. In addition, 64bit Sata, Raid, audio and network drivers for some newer chips can be obtained via the Sis home page. The same goes for Via – take a look at the Via Arena page (www.viaarena.com).

Further 64bit drivers can be found on the websites of Creative (Soundblaster Live, Audigy, Audigy 2) and other major manufacturers. Table 3 gives an overview of available 64bit drivers from various manufacturers.

AMD fired the starting gun in the 64bit race when it incorporated 64bit extensions into its Athlon 64 and Opteron processors long before suitable software was available. The first 64bit CPUs for the mainstream market were available at the end of 2003, supporting both 32- and 64bit code. AMD refers to this as the AMD64 architecture.

Intel is catching up and will deliver all-new processors, starting with the recent introduction of the Pentium 4 6xx series and 3.7GHz Pentium 4 Extreme Edition, with 64bit extensions. Intel Xeon server and workstation CPUs have included this technology since the middle of 2004. From a software point of view Intel’s EM64T is the same as AMD64, so in theory, applications developed for AMD64 are compatible with systems using new Intel CPUs.

If you are a first time homebuyer, then you definitely must check out the 43 Must-Know Tips for Every First-time Home Buyer at MortgageLowDown.com. It is a pity that I have already bought my very first home a few months back, otherwise these tips would really come in handy.

Nevertheless, I have browsed through the tips just to see how wise a first time homebuyer I had been. MortgageLowDown.com states that the first thing to consider before kick starting the engine is to determine a budget. I totally agree and that was exactly what I had done.

I am not going to go through the tips one by one here and that would defeat the purpose of the website hence I am going to leave it up to you to read it for yourselves. All I can say is, it is an article you definitely do not want to miss if you are going to get a home for the very first time ever.

The 32bit and 64bit versions ofWindows XP can be run in parallel, keeping your existing 32bit XP installation in a multi-boot system. Just as now, the installed operating systems are managed by theWindows Boot Manager.

At the time of writing, only a few manufacturers had released 64bit versions of their programs. Avast Antivirus4.5, Virtual Dub 1.6.3 andWinimage 7 are three out of a handful of applications optimised for use with the 64bit version of Windows XP. Unreal Tournament 2004 was the first game to be released commercially with 64bit code support – the necessary supplementary files are on the installation CD. 64bit versions of Far Cry, Doom 3 and Stalker: Shadows of Chernobyl are under development. The developers promise performance improvements of up to 30 per cent and noticeably better graphics.

You’ll look in vain for 64bit software from big-name manufacturers such as Microsoft, Adobe or Autodesk. But demanding applications for photo editing, video editing and Cad will profit most from the operating system’s 64bit architecture. Preliminary tests with specially optimised beta software showed increases in speed of 20 to 50 per cent.We don’t expect it’ll be long before the major manufacturers release optimised software.
