Reviews of this property
Wonderful situation just 10 minutes walk from San Marco. There was the yacht Adix berthed right in front of the property for our stay, all $33.5 million of it! Paolo was very helpful without being intrusive. The room was very clean and quite functional it was also cleaned every day which we did not expect. We had use of the fridge which was very helpful. The canal at the side was quite noisy form passing boats, but we slept well. We had a wonderful stay and visit to Venice.
We had 3 fantastic days in Venice staying at Paolos "hostel". He and his family run the place and are really nice and helpful. There are around 7 rooms with a sink in the room and 2 bathrooms/showers plus one extra toilet in the hallway. The sharing was no problem at all for us and the bathrooms were very clean and comfortable.
We definitely recommend staying there, especially since it is reasonably priced for Venice and in a fantastic location right on the waterfront of the laguna near Arsenale. This means walking distance for everything and the luxury of staying on the main island.
Thank you very much, Paolo.
We were warmly welcomed when we arrived. Paolo advised us where to find cheap eats and how to get to places by boat.
The location is quite amazing. We could look out the window along a small canal. It is a short easy walk to the water bus which we used quite often or walked to St Marks Square.
Happy to recommend this place.
The room offered by Paolo is very close to the Biennale of Venezia, so from this point of view very practical. Unfortunatly we haven't really seen Paolo nor his assistances. We felt like only beeing tolerated but not warmly welcomed. Noisy in the morning, the heating wasen't on, thus pretty freezing! On the other hand the coffee in the morning was nice. All in all we wouldn't choose this place again, sorry
wonderful accommodation in an amazing location, will be back definitely
wunderbare Unterkunft direkt am Canale Grande, werde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen
Mr. Paul is very kind. Great location of the house and also excellent cleaning. thanks
Il signor paolo è molto gentile. Posizione ottima della casa e ottima anche la pulizia.
Had a wonderful stay in Venice. The room was comfortable and the host was very accommodating, especially when we dropped the room key at a restaurant quite a distance from our room and Paolo said he would get the key for us the next day. Would definitely consider staying again in the future.
My friend and I were touring Italy for two weeks and used Wimdu for every stay. We felt this room was better than any other place we stayed! We enjoyed the location, the clean room, the view, and the friendly staff. The staff was constantly cleaning all shared spaces, and even provided fresh and ironed our sheets every day! We were really impressed by the location, because it was very quiet at night, yet very close to major sights in Venice. Our only minor complaint is that there is only one shower for about 5-6 rooms, so wait time for a shower can be long. However, compared to every other place we stayed, we felt this room was under marketed and well worth the value. We will definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful night at Casa Favaretto, the host Paolo was really friendly. The room and the location of the apartment couldnt be better, and its a great place to stay in Venice for a night or several days!

BF-37 version looks way more fearsome and I believe that was what Oda was going for with Franky. It terms of appearance, Franky has been the most fears, being the most muscle bound of them all. Increasing his size and making him look more like a cyborg was how Oda improved his appearance. Franky was also introduced later like Brook and like Brook, those two have had the largest change in appearance. They were just introduced, so they are aloud to change drastically.
Also, Zoro looks wet. Meaning he was swimming. Meaning he doesn't have a DF for those who thought he did.
I Love You!
Zoro wasn't getting a DF regardless. Maybe he was wet jumping in the water to get Tashigi because she's a DF user?
And Yes, the Previous Franky had BF-36 On his shoulders. It is the number of Warships(Battle Franky) he created, each one stronger than the last. I always thought 37 was the Thousand Sunny. Apparently It's not counted as a BF.
I Love You!
It would be awasome if Frankie upgraded thousand sunny into a transformer kind of robot. And he could also synch himself to it.
Thousand Sunny and Frankie versus Collosal Battleship = EPIC

Massachusetts Secretary of State William Galvin is pushing a bill that would require casino backers and opponents to disclose ballot campaign spending to the state.
Currently, groups interested in spending money to influence local casino ballot questions are only required to disclose campaign spending to a local city or town clerk. But if the bill passes through the Massachusetts House, all campaign-related expenditures would need to disclosed to the state Office of Campaign and Political Finance.
Galvin says the bill is intended to increase transparency, not limit spending. He says local town clerks already have The responsibility of runnning elections on top of administering campaign spending.
"…the Office of Campaign and Political Finance, on the other hand, has some experience in this area. It has the attorneys and the sophistication to deal with corporate expenditures when they've been reported in the past. I think it's by far the better place for it to be."
Galvin cites last week's referendum in Taunton which voted in favor of a casino proposal by the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe.
"$300,000 was expended on that question. That's a great amount of money on a city the size of Taunton, less than 60,000 people. I doubt any other municipal question has ever seen that much money spent -that's one community. When you talk about larger places, Springfield perhaps, with larger proposals, obviously the amount of money is going to be even greater."
The bill has been introduced to the Joint Committee on Election Laws. So far no one has testified against it. A representative from the Massachusetts Gaming commission says they cannot take a position on the bill until after an open forum next Tuesday.

Euro area annual inflation down to -0.6%
Euro area annual inflation is expected to be -0.6% in January 2015, down from -0.2% in December 20143, according to a flash estimate4 from Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union. This negative rate for euro area annual inflation in January is driven by the fall in energy prices (-8.9%, compared with -6.3% in December). Prices are also expected to fall for food, alcohol & tobacco (-0.1%, compared with 0.0% in December) and non-energy industrial goods (-0.1%, compared with 0.0% in December). Only prices for services are expected to increase (1.0%, compared with 1.2% in December).

Consultation on benchmarks and market indices launched following LIBOR manipulation
Following the recent manipulation of LIBOR, the Commission has launched a consultation inviting stakeholders to comment on possible new rules for the production and use of indices serving as benchmarks in financial and other contracts. Commissioner for Internal Market and Services Michel Barnier said: "The international investigations underway into the manipulation of LIBOR have revealed yet another example of unacceptable behaviour by banks. Doubts about the accuracy and integrity of indices can undermine market confidence, cause significant losses to consumers and investors, and distort the real economy. It is therefore essential that steps are taken to ensure the integrity of benchmarks and the benchmark-setting process. The Commission has already acted quickly to amend its legislative proposals on market abuse (see IP/12/846). However, changing the sanctions regime alone may not be sufficient: wider work is required to regulate how indices and benchmarks are compiled, produced and used." The consultation is wide-ranging: it covers all benchmarks, not just interest rate benchmarks such as LIBOR but also commodities and real estate price indices for example and it seeks to identify possible shortcomings at every stage in the production and use of benchmarks. The ultimate objective is to ensure the integrity of benchmarks. All options are on the table but any solution should guarantee that benchmarks are not subject to conflicts of interest, reflect the economic reality that they are intended to measure and are used appropriately. Background The consultation paper comprises 5 chapters covering: • the scope, process and nature of indices and benchmarks • governance and transparency in the use of actual transaction data • the purpose and use of benchmarks • the provision of benchmarks by private or public bodies, and • the impact of potential regulation, including transition, continuity and international uses issues. The consultation will run until 15 November. Link to the consultation: http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/consultations/2012/benchmarks_en.htmRead on
Future of the Euro – Speech by Marion Draghi, President ECB
"Across Europe, a fundamental debate is taking place about the future of the euro. Many citizens are concerned about where Europe is heading. Yet the solutions presented appear to them unsatisfactory. This is because these solutions offer binary choices: either we must go back to the past, or we must move to a United States of Europe. My answer to the question is: to have a stable euro we do not need to choose between extremes. The reason this debate is taking place is not the euro as a currency. The objectives of the single currency remain as relevant today as they were when the single currency was agreed. To spread price stability and sustainable growth to all European citizens. To reap the gains of the world's largest single market and make the historic process of European unification irreversible. To raise Europe's standing – not only economically but also politically – in a globalised world. The debate is taking place because the euro area has not yet fully succeeded as a polity. Currencies ultimately depend on the institutions that stand behind them. When the euro was first proposed, there were those who said it would have to be preceded by a long process of political integration. This was because sharing a currency would imply a high degree of joint decision-making. Member countries would be a "Schicksalsgemeinschaft" and would need strong common democratic underpinnings." Read the full contribution that has been published in the German Newspaper DIE ZEIT, and that is taken from the Website of the ECB.

Euro area inflation estimated at 2.6%
Euro area annual inflation is expected to be 2.6% in August 2012 according to a flash estimate issued by Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union. It was 2.4% in July. Computation of flash estimates Euro area inflation is measured by the Monetary Union Index of Consumer Prices (MUICP). To compute the MUICP flash estimates, Eurostat uses early price information relating to the reference month from Member States for which data are available as well as early information about energy prices. The flash estimation procedure for the MUICP combines historical information with partial information on price developments in the most recent months to give a total index for the euro area. No detailed breakdown is available. Experience has shown the procedure to be reliable (19 times exactly anticipating the inflation rate and 5 times differing by 0.1 over the last two years).

G20 GDP growth slows to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011
Quarterly gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the G20 slowed to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with +0.9% in the third quarter, according to provisional results from this first ever release of the G20 GDP aggregate. In 2011 as a whole, G20 GDP grew by 2.8%, a marked deceleration compared with the +5.0% growth recorded in 2010.
The G20 GDP quaterly in volume terms
The G20 GDP aggregate masks diverging patterns among the world's largest economies.
In the United States, GDP growth increased to +0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with +0.5% in the third quarter. In India and Indonesia growth increased strongly, but in China it slowed to +2.0%, compared with +2.3% in the third quarter. In Japan, economic growth decreased to -0.2%, following the strong rebound to +1.7% in the third quarter. GDP growth was -0.3% in both the European Union and the euro area in the fourth quarter of 2011, the first negative growth since the second quarter of 2009.
Today's release of the G20 GDP aggregate marks the first release of a G20 aggregate in the context of the implementation of the Data Gaps Initiative – a set of 20 recommendations on the further enhancement of statistics as agreed by the G20 finance ministers and central bank governors. The process is coordinated by the Inter-Agency Group on Economic and Financial Statistics (IAG), which comprises the International Monetary Fund (chair), the Bank for International Settlements, the European Central Bank, Eurostat, the OECD, the United Nations and the World Bank. The dissemination of the G20 GDP aggregate demonstrates cooperation between the agencies and progress in the Data Gaps Initiative and provides a timely measure of economic growth for the G20. In future the G20 aggregate will become part of a new regular OECD quarterly press release on economic growth at around 70 days after the reference quarter.Source: Website ECG Source Chart:http://www.ecb.int/press/pr/date/2012/html/pr120314.en.html Read on

Advanced Stats All-Stars Vs. Over-Hyped Hitting Machines!
Kevin McCartney
August 09 2013 06:36AM
Photo by clydeorama
We bloggers can be a serious people. But it's August. We're all sitting in hammocks with a cold beer reading Vollman's new Hockey Abstract on our tablets to avoid equally Screen Deprivation Anxiety and the chance of the sun reaching our pale, pale skin. It's a time we can relax and stand to laugh at ourselves just a little.
Which is great because let's face it, honoured readers, we bloggers sometimes pick odd players to love based on process related metrics. Just look at this great one by me on Eric Tangradi. I thought that guy might work out and felt genuine excitement about it. What a dummy.
But we're not alone! Our professional partners in print and those of the Sound-Making Media have some hilarious ideas about how hockey works and who is good at it. Where bloggers use incredulity, the mainsteam media is using hype. And we're all ridiculous!
I think readers can agree there's no better way to see our foibles than holding an All-Star game. That's right, The Kyle Wellwood's Career Memorial All-Stars face off against The Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hawks!
So relax and have a laugh at yourself. And others. (If you have a horse in this race, it's okay to laugh just a little harder at the others to keep the self-doubt at bay.)
Let's start with the premise that the actual all-stars are on, you know, the All-Star teams. The Crosby's and Stamkos's are otherwise engaged. These are the guys we spend reams of pixels and hours of our time trying to prove are the real heroes of a 23-man roster. In fact, I've gone with 23 man rosters because there are just too many good candidates.
Okay, okay, the teams:
The Kyle Wellwood's Career Memorial All-Stars
Photo by Aaron Webb.
Power-vs-Power: Gabriel Landeskog – Frans Nielsen – Alex Semin
This is like Advanced Stats porn. If nerds ran the Hall of Fame, Landeskog would already be in it. Nielsen has had an up-and-down career, but remember when we knew he was good before anyone had heard of him?? We did that! Alex Semin could be paid in rocks collected from the moon and it would be too little according to an analysis that doesn't have a 'Nationality' variable.
Second Toughs Outscoring Line: Sean Couturier – Brandon Dubinsky – Colin Wilson
Wilson has to play his off-wing. It's an All-Star team and we don't have a way to track such banal contextual factors anyway. Couturier makes Winnipeg fans cry with his wunderkind two-way talents while Dubinsky doesn't need to score to earn his paycheque. He has something called shot attempts, bitchz.
The Foreign Service: Magnus Paajarvi – Mikael Grabovski – Alexander Burmistrov
Oilers bloggers are pulling their hair out over losing Maggie, while Jets fans are still in denial over Burmistrov. DON'T TEAMS KNOW ANYTHING?! Grabo returns to form through the power of regression and bingo! 0.15 more Wins per All-Star game.
Soft Parade: Jussi Jokinen – Kyle Wellwood – Patrick Kaleta from 2010
Wellwood still can't get ice-time on a team named after him. It's fitting, really. Also, this team got Jussi Jokinen off waivers because your team was too dumb. If you think Kaleta doesn't help this team, you don't know much about 'Unique Skills'. Just pretend you don't know what happens from 2011 to 2013 and he's still better than Kovalchuk.
In Reserve: Carl "The News Cycle is Catching Up on Me" Hagelin / David "Zone-Start Adjusted Corsi" Moss
Those guys are in RESERVE! We don't even need a goalie. You won't cross the red-line.
You Don't Know Anything!: Christian Ehrhoff – Fedor Tyutin
Ehrhoff had a Norris quality season when you control for team effects, dude, and Fedor Tyutin is a keeper in my RelCorsi-based fantasy league.
Sweet Freedom: Jake Muzzin – Jake Gardiner
I don't know anything about their skating skills, but their spreadsheets are so graceful.
Bet you didn't see this coming: Chris Tanev – Tyson Barrie
But you should have. The data is open-source. You thought Erik Johnson was the best defenceman on the Avs!? Please. And just like on the Canucks, Chris Tanev is the best defenceman on this team after the other 5 defencemen who are better.
7th man: Mike Weaver
"How many cups has he won?" HA! We don't win cups. We win shifts.
In Goal
Craig "Everyone's always trying to replace me" Anderson
Anton "The star signing of every blogger's offseason" Khudobin
Est. Team Salary: $50.5M
Est. Goals scored over a full season: We… uh, to be honest we're pretty worried about a Simpson's paradox scenario and goals might be random. We've Monte Carlo'ed it to hell, but our best estimation is between 1.8 and 2.6 goals per 60 minutes of even strength ice time. In other words, somewhere between the worst and the best. Could go either way.
The Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hawks!
Photo by Peter Evans.
Patrice Bergeron is a line
You tell me he's not the best and I'll cut you. I'll give you some numbers to prove it. Two-thirds of his body weight is one muscle - heart.
Trio De Triomphe: Joffrey Lupul – Free Agent Brad Richards – Shane Doan
Remember when Richards was still a Free Agent and able to take a team to a cup? Man, the Leafs were crazy not to give that guy $1B over a million years!
With character like Doan's on one side, and the exuberance of Lupul to get dirty and shoot the puck on the other, this line is destined for glory.
The Line That Wants to Win: Steve Ott – Jordan Staal – David Clarkson
This line wants it. They want it individually, they want it collectively, and through the mystical resonance of a hockey locker room, their desire has combined to form a specter resembling Christopher Lloyd that shares the ice with them. You don't need to "see" the results. They're just there.
Sandpaper And They're Hard to Play Against: Kyle Clifford – Jim Slater – Chris Neil
This line adds sandpaper and they're hard to play against. All three of them will stand at the net for a whole shift and not move. That's how much tenacity these guys have. Block a shot? Pfft. They'll spend the whole game blocking shots!
In Reserve: Mike "The Ruppest" Rupp / Brendan "Leadership" Morrow
HIT SOMEBODY!: Anton Volchenkov – Dion Phaneuf
These two will go out of their way to make sure someone gets brutalized.
SKATE!: Marc Methot - Jack Johnson
Did you notice that both of these players were invited to Olympics camps? That's how we know they're the best. Those who have authority have it out of merit and shall never be questioned.
HIT SOMEBODY!: Luke Schenn – Robyn Regehr
Afraid of corners?! Are you kidding me? These guys are more afraid of the open ice.
7th Man: Brooks "HIT SOMEBODY!" Orpik
In Goal
Cam "CLUTCH!" Ward
MA "KNOWS HOW TO WIN!" Fleury
Est. Team Salary: $84M
Est, Goals Scored over a full season: It hasn't happened yet, idiot. 400 maybe? Let's go with a nice round 500. Anything less than 600 is a failure of the skilled forwards unless they really gut it out, in which case they can win through effort. It's like a whole golden snitch thing, don't worry about it.
Who wins this All-Star matchup?
Is he like the beloved underground rapper that hits it big then gets written off as mainstream?
August 09 2013, 09:43AM
I hate to say this as a fancystats nerd myself but...
Bergeron isn't over-hyped.
Clarkson is a bit better than some of us give him credit for - he's more Tyler Kennedy (who was shockingly off your fancy stat team) - than he is Milan Lucic.
Methot, Volchenkov, and Phaneuf really aren't over-hyped. In fact Methot actually belongs on your fancy-stat team more than the over-hyped one. He's the guy most people seem confused about re his invite to the Team Canada camp.
I find it odd that Phaneuf is so "over-rated" by "everyone" that he shows up on lists again and again about how "over-rated" he is.
As for your goalies - surprised you think Ward is over-rated - I'd have definitely put Johnathan Quick in goal.
Haha, way to go the Australian Rules Football mascot... that made my day.
Nice read. Loved the cartoon.
August 11 2013, 01:39PM
This article should have gone on all the nations networks.
Pure awesome.
Also - Methot! He reminds me of a Komisarek trajectory. Komisarek was named to the US team in 2010 but was injured and couldn't play if I remember correctly. Everyone was enamoured with the guy until his partners were bad and his luck ran out. I don't Methot gets bought out, but I don't think it's chance that his best season came with Paul Maclean as coach and Erik Karlsson beside him.
Um, Methot played the majority of last season without Karlsson and still was pretty solid and managed to get a Team Canada invite. So in no real way did he piggyback Karlsson to a great season.

By ALAN J. PETERSONHelper
I'm sure that most of your readers are aware of our country's energy demands and the need to locate, develop and deliver natural resources to the citizens of this great country. The more independent we can be, the less dependent we will be upon the whims of some foreign country and their leadership who seem to hate us anyway.
Currently, the local Price Field Office of the BLM is accepting public comments on their most recently released Environmental Assessment (EA) pertaining to a proposal by the Bill Barrett Corportation (BBC) to drill test wells on the West Tavaputs Plateau. This is an exploratory project needed to determine the amount of natural gas in that area. BBC has made a substantial investment and commitment to our area. They have operated with a high level of environmental concern and will be using the latest in technology to accomplish their study.
Many citizens of Emery and Carbon counties are aware of an extreme group by the name of Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA).Recently SUWA was able to generate a mass mailing of anti-natural gas development against the BBC Stone Cabin 3D Seismic Study in the same general area. Through their e-mail network they generated over 25,000......that's twenty-five thousand comments AGAINST development of natural gas reserves that would continue to provide YOU and I with a natural resource that WE demand. We all use natual resources such as natural gas and electrical power in our homes, businesses, schools, etc. Not only do we each benefit individually from the development and production of these resources but it would also provide a great boost to our local economy.
Another local proposed development that SUWA has been successful in blocking is the Lila Canyon Coal Mine in northern Emery County near the Carbon County border. SUWA and their national membership are having a very real and very negative impact on the economy of Carbon and Emery Counties.
If you are tired of these outsiders dictating your future. If you are tired of extremists hijacking the permitting process for proper development of our natural resources, then I ask that YOU get involved and speak up. If you feel as I do, that we can develop natural resources and at the same time protect cultural resources then YOU need to let the BLM know how you feel.
For more information on the EA concerning the BBC West Tavaputs Drilling Project you can go to the Utah State BLM website @http://www.ut.blm.gov/
Please mail your comments to:
Mark Mackiewicz, Bureau of Land Management, Price Field Office, 125 South 600 West, Price, UT 84501.

Comment period ends June 4.
Thanks for your consideration to this very important matter.

Dancing with the Stars
posted on March 14th, 2014
Hey everyone!
First of all: Happy Pi Day! Yes, it's 3.14 and I love all the tweets I've been getting about it. (Click here to celebrate by watching the "Pi" episode of Math Bites!)
I've been having so much fun and rehearsing for Dancing with the Stars and it seems I've been too busy to update my blog about it, so here you go! We've had 2 weeks of rehearsal so far. It's been awesome - really hard work but fun. It's a little strange to have cameras with us the whole time, but I'm getting used to it. :) And after all this rehearsing, I am so sore! I actually took an ice bath yesterday, which really helped (not sure I recommend it unless necessary because, um, BRRR!). Apparently athletes do this all the time - more power to 'em, haha.
Me and my awesome partner, Val Chmerkovskiy
I've seriously been such a fan of DWTS since the beginning and I'm so excited to be a part of it this season. (Thank you Tom Bergeron for encouraging/badgering me to do it.) I admit that I was nervous at first, but the thing is, I love dance, I love challenges, and I love sparkly outfits... And I guess I have the dancing gene: My mom was a professional dancer and had me & my sister taking ballet as little girls, but I never really pursued it. My sister did - she was quite the ballerina for awhile! Then back in 2006 I did a movie in Dallas where I had to do a Tango scene. I rehearsed for about a month - it was tough but I totally got the dancing bug, and I always wished I could spend more time getting better at it. After I came back to LA, I remained friends with my teachers back in Dallas, and I kept dancing as an on-again, off-again hobby - but between my two careers and being a mom, there just wasn't ever the time to really focus on dance - until now! And Val is seriously kicking my butt - I'm losing weight AND eating like I did when I was pregnant! BTW, I feel so lucky to have Val as my partner. He can be tough on me sometimes, but I feel myself getting better an I'm really grateful to him.
So thank you in advance for your support from this very happy actress/author who is finally getting an opportunity to train as a dancer. I want to put on a really entertaining show for you all, week after week. Your support means everything.
Love, Danica
P.S. Don't forget to vote (via phone, FB, ABC.com) Monday nights, starting March 17th at 8|7c on ABC! Go #TeamVanica!

Danica, you're not being completely truthful about the extent of your ballroom dance training. You said, yourself, in an article that you dance whenever you can and probably have too much experience to be on Dancing With the Stars. You have to be upfront about it, or it will hurt you with viewers when they find out, just like it hurt Sherri Sheppard (one of Val's previous partners). Viewers don't care about previous dance experience; they do get resentful if they feel they're being played.

MKM with RUDE people like you on the internet you've just made me want to cheer for Danica. You have no right to question her truthfulness, she said she hadn't had the chance to dance as much as she wanted to, but at no time has she denied her love of dance or her dance experience.

Its just an Awesome as this girl is dancing with the such a high heel. Its very difficult to dance with the high heels. At least Its not possible for me. Most of teh time i dance wearing Gel lyte iii shoes.

You were not judged fairly by the home audience. You clearly deserved to be in the finals! My wife and I loved you on the Wonder Years but you have continued to grow into a beautiful and talented actress/DANCER!!! We'll look forward to seeing your performance in the finale! Also Abby Lee Miller is a joke and hopefully will never be asked to come back to guest judge on DWTS!

Danica, a little late joining in, but...
I remember you as an actress on The Wonder Years, but it was interesting to learn that you are a mathematician. I own your first three books. I am an adjunct professor of developmental math at some community colleges (recently retired) and although your books are aimed at girls, I feel that I want to have some new ideas for teaching concepts to my students.
When I learned that you were on DWTS (although I am not a fan of the show), you were my natural choice to pull for. Whether or not you won, I always am looking for you on TV or in the news. I look forward to reading the blog.

Agilent Technologies Releases Official SATA Revision 3.0 Test Procedures
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 21, 2009
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced the release of test procedures for physical and protocol-layer device testing according to the Serial ATA International Organization: Serial ATA (SATA) Revision 3.0 standard. SATA, a popular internal storage interconnect for PCs, connects the host system to peripherals such as hard drives, solid-state drives, optical drives and removable magnetic media devices.
The SATA Revision 3.0 standard defines a maximum transfer speed of 6.0 Gb/s, which is double the speed of previous-generation technology. Faster transfer speeds enable higher-performance storage for applications such as emerging solid-state drives and enterprise business storage. This new specification will enable users to move large quantities of data at faster rates, which is increasingly critical for today's high-resolution photos, videos, music and multimedia files.
Devices operating at 6 Gb/s present new measurement challenges that require new tools and procedures for proper validation and margin analysis. Advance access to measurements enables engineers developing cutting-edge solutions to address potential design issues early in the design cycle and get their products to market faster.
The new test procedures cover transmitter, receiver, return loss and protocol specifications. The test procedures are also in line with Unified Test Document (UTD) Revision 1.4, which describes the overview testing requirement for devices and products to achieve interoperability. The procedures, also known as methods of implementation, are available on the SATA-IO Web page. Complete methods of implementation for the SATA Gen1 and Gen2 standards are also available.
Agilent provides industry-leading capabilities for physical-layer testing of high-speed serial data technologies. Agilent's Infiniium 90000 Series oscilloscope, the Elektra 08 Design and Test Product of the Year award winner, offers the industry's lowest noise floor, deepest memory and flattest response. Using the 90000 Series oscilloscope and Agilent's automated N5411B SATA compliance test software, engineers can maximize their design margins and gain greater insights into their system performance.
Engineers can use the Agilent J-BERT N4903A/B high-performance serial BERT for physical-layer receiver compliance testing and characterization. They also can use the Agilent DCA-J 86100C TDR system to characterize transmit and receive termination impedances and return loss per the requirements of the upcoming SATA specification. Agilent N5990A test automation software, with its SATA compliance test-automation suite, offers high-level system automation and test integration across physical-layer test requirement categories and provides a broader set of receiver characterization tests and margin analysis capabilities. Agilent also recently expanded its SATA solution portfolio with the U5031A/U5032A SerialTek BusExpert SATA protocol analyzer, which covers link speeds from 1.5 Gb/s to 6 Gb/s for protocol testing.
Agilent's Digital Test Standards Program
Agilent's solutions for digital applications are driven and supported by Agilent experts who are involved in various international standard committees. Agilent Digital Test Standards Program experts are active in the Joint Electronic Devices Engineering Council (JEDEC), PCI Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG®), Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA), Serial ATA International Organization (SATA-IO), USB-Implementers Forum (USB-IF), Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) Alliance, Ethernet standards (IEEE 802.3), Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) and many others. Involvement in these standards groups and related workshops, plugfests and seminars enables Agilent to bring the right solutions to the market when customers need them.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
New head coach Melissa Esplin is finding success on the floor slower than she would like as the 2007 season begins. "In every game we have played, with every team we have faced we have just not found a way to win," she said.
Melissa took over the program this year after serving as an assistant last season. She believes the volleyball program "is improving and the ladies are working really hard."
To open the season, the team went to St. George for a tournament. They defeated Union to open the tournament and then lost games against San Juan, Hurricane, Piute and Park City.
The team then came home for the opening match of the year and hosted Uintah. The Emery sophomores lost 19-25, 21-25, 16-14 and 7-15. Playing for the sophomores are Nikki Rogers, Jessica Murray, Kristiann Grange, Ashley Alger, Markette Tanner, Michelle Oliver, Brooke Jensen and Taylor Mann.
The JV then took the floor and won 25-16, 20-25, 11-15, 15-8 and 15-11. JV starters are Frankie Komar, Sierra Bridgewater, Lacey Montgomery, Markette Tanner, Michelle Oliver and Danavin Reed.
The varsity then lost their match 25-22, 19-25, 22-25 and 20-25. Starters are Meagan Pearson, Jalee Jensen, Abbie Kay, Jodie Robertson, Chelsea Skinner, Sierra Bridgewater, Madison Jensen and Frankie Komar.
The team then went to Weber High for a tournament on the weekend. Emery defeated Grantsville and Cyprus and lost to West, Bonneville, Hillcrest, Weber, North Summit and Roy. In the tournament, Komar injured her wrist. Komar is the best setter on the team.
Despite the record, Esplin and the girls "know that we can get better, we know the things we need to work on."
The team travels this week to Salina and Richfield and will be home again on Sept. 11 when they host Duchesne.

The 2007-08 basketball season opened for the Emery High Lady Spartans last Tuesday night with a narrow 56-45 loss to South Sevier High School in Monroe. This game featured two reigning state champions, Emery in 3-A and South Sevier in 2-A in this Hall of Fame game. While the Spartans had several player losses due to graduation, the Rams returned their entire roster from last season.
Although the final score has the Rams winning by 11 points, the game was much closer than this up to the closing minute when Emery started fouling to attempt to get the ball back. South Sevier made eight of 10 free throws down the stretch to secure the victory.
Emery started out slow but then so did the Rams. The score after the first quarter was 6-4 for South Sevier. Michonne Robertson, a senior transfer to Emery, made two free throws and Meagan Pearson hit a basket for Emery's points in that quarter. Emery outscored South Sevier in the second quarter 18-12 to take a four point lead into the locker room. Jodi Robertson led the Spartans with 10 points, including a pair of 3-pointers. Tiffany Tuttle scored four points on two baskets.
The third quarter belonged to South Sevier as they outscored Emery 15-7 in the period. Emery could not buy a basket in the period as they continued a game long problem of being able to get off a good shot but the ball would not go in the basket. Frankie Komar had a 3-pointer and Jodi and Tiffany each had a basket for the Spartan scoring.
Emery lost the last period 23-16. In the period, Pearson led the way with six points. Jodi added four more points to finish with a team high 17 points. Jodi also had a rebound, three assists, five steals and four blocked shots.
For the game, Emery just did not shoot well. Emery made only 10 of 34 regular shot attempts. Emery missed 13 shots taken in the paint. Emery also only hit five of 14 3-point shot attempts and made only 10 0f 20 free throw attempts.
Michonne grabbed eight of the team's 23 rebounds. Emery had 11 assists, 16 steals and seven blocked shots. Meagan had four steals, three rebounds and two assists while scoring eight points.
Also scoring for the Spartans were Lacey Montgomery with one point, Jenni Stinson with two points, Caitlin Hansen and Frankie Komar with three points and Michonne and Tiffany with six points each.
Emery purposely has a tough preseason schedule. Head Coach Steven Gordon figures that his team will only get better if they play good competition. The team continues their tough schedule when they travel to North Sevier this week and then host Canyon View. North Sevier is a top 2-A team and Canyon View has maybe the best player back in 3-A basketball with Cassie Platt. Emery played well in the game and, especially for a season opener on the road, did most things right except get the ball to actually go through the hoop. Last season starter ShiAnne Allred is still on the injured list after having knee surgery and hopes to be back by late December.

I am having problems with noisy pipes. It started just when we turned the water off, and would only last an instant. Now, a month later, it continues for up to 2 or 3 minutes, and sometimes occurs without touching any water sources. It consists of a screeching or squealing noise, or banging within the pipes themselves--but the pipes aren't loose or hitting on anything. We have tried shutting off the input and opening all the faucets, but our success only lasted for half a day. HELP!

By ALLIE DERRICKFormer Ferron resident
To the citizens of Ferron who are fighting against the foster home that will be set up to take in young teenage girls. I am proud to say that I grew up in Ferron. Most of my family still lives there. When I heard of the statements that were made about the girls that will be staying at the home, I was appalled.
I am now in my 30s and have a family of my own and have been a foster parent for the state of Utah. All of the children that have come into our home have had problems and issues that we have had to work through. I would never call them toxic waste. How dare you compare another innocent child to toxic waste.
I will have you know that all of the children I have worked with have been victims of bad parenting. They have been hurt and abused by adults who were supposed to love and care for them. Not one of them asked to be put into foster care and not one of them was a bad kid. They just had bad things happen to them that they had no control over.
I ask you now how you can judge children that you have never met. And how can you say that your small town could be hurt by these girls that have nowhere else to go. You only hurt yourselves when you turn away from an opportunity to serve someone less fortunate then you. I have learned from my mother that happiness only comes to those that give of themselves to others.
You can look at change as a burden or you can look at it as a opportunity to do a little good in the world. I hope you can open your hearts and minds to these girls that are in so much need. To the woman that is opening the home, although I have never met you, I hope to someday. Thank you for taking the time to help someone in need. We could use more people like you in this world.
I know some will say I am writing this because of who my father is and to them I say you are absolutely right. He is a great man that has taught me to never back down from what I believe in and always to stand up for those that are in need. There are thousands of foster children in our state who rely on the goodness of others to lend a helping hand and warm home. Don't let them hear you call them toxic waste or tell them that they are not worth our help.
I am not saying that you should be a foster parent. I am just saying watch what you say because you never know who you are hurting with your unkind words.

|In response to Re: Solid-Surface Shower Pan Drain Fitting
: Although manufacturers of solid surface shower pans do not seem to mention it, I have seen several plumbing experts on the web still recommend installing some sort of membrane shower pan underneath the solid surface formed pan. Most say this is protection against sweating and added insurance for any leakage around the drain and pan at the walls.
: I would like to do this for the SwanStone pan I am installing; however, I have yet to find an appropriate shower drain fitting that will clamp to the SwanStone pan drain and also provide for the attachment of a membrane pan underneath. My drain system is ABS pipe. Everything I find is for ceramic tile installations it seems.
: Does anyone know of a particular manufacturer and model of fitting I can procure?

During the forage program at the Kentucky Cattlemen's Association Annual Convention, Don Sorrell, KFGC, President had the opportunity to talk about the "role of clover" down on the farm. To address this subject he surveyed Kentucky's agriculture agents. The following is a summary of the results of that survey.
• 34 percent of Kentucky's farmers seed clover as a hay crop and 42 percent seed clover in their pasture fields.
The Kentucky 4-H Summit is the only event 4-H puts on that is just for middle school youth. It is a fun-filled three-day conference held at the Kentucky Leadership Center in Jabez, Ky.
A lot of people ask me, "What is Kentucky Proud?" What is its purpose? What does it mean that a product is "Kentucky Proud?" What has Kentucky Proud done for Kentucky agriculture and Kentucky's economy?"
This week we begin a new monthly sewing article which will include some fun facts about sewing related ideas that often come our way.
Firstly, let us introduce ourselves. We are a couple of youngish middle-aged birds who have been certified from the University of Kentucky for over four years in sewing construction. That's actually eight years of intensive training between the two of us, and we have some great techniques to pass on. Our names are THIS and THAT. Confused already?
The Kentucky Department of Agriculture, the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service and Kentucky State University are teaming up to offer beekeeping schools throughout the state.
Whether you are a veteran beekeeper or a beginner eager to get started, these day-long educational workshops, held on Saturdays, offer sessions on everything from where to buy equipment to tips on harvesting your first batch of honey.
The Kentucky Farm Business Management Program (KFBM) recently completed the 2008 Beef Enterprise Analysis. This study focused on two beef cattle enterprises, those in which calves are sold at weaning (calves sold) and those in which calves are retained for at least 45 days after weaning (calves backgrounded). There were 8 farms in the calves sold group and 10 in the calves backgrounded group. Although these results can not be extrapolated across all Kentucky beef operations, it is our belief that they accurately portray the beef operations on the KFBM program.
Winter weather emergencies can be difficult for many older Kentuckians. Senior citizens should consider safety concerns, including falling, hypothermia and frost bite, before venturing out in bad weather.
Many seniors have medical conditions that require treatment. They may run low on medicine or have no way to get to their family doctor. In the event of a medical emergency, call 911 first. Some pharmacies may deliver medications, even in bad weather. Call your pharmacist or physician with questions about medications.
The Washington County 4-H Young Riders Club helps youth learn about the pride of owning a horse or pony and being responsible for its management and learn skills in horsemanship and understanding of the business of breeding.
The club meets the third Monday of each month and new members are welcome. Owning a horse is not a requirement to join the club. Below is information that will be helpful to horse owners in Washington County. For more information on the Washington County 4-H Young Riders contact the Extension Office at 336-7741.
Round switchgrass pellets, resembling small pieces of wood, rolled off machines at Midwestern Biofuels in Wurtland as the crop from a biomass research project at the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture was pelletized for the first time.
Although the warmer temperatures of spring and summer are just wishful thinking, it's time for 4-H members who want to participate in livestock projects to begin making plans. Kentucky 4-H requires that each member receive six or more hours of instruction in the various areas of livestock care, judging and general knowledge in order to participate in any 4-H livestock competition. In Washington County, 4-H members join the 4-H Hooves and Horns Club to learn about the livestock industry and earn their six hours.
