SSD for a great price 5/11/2015ITCarol from Victorville, CA
I purchased about a dozen of these to improve performance on work pc's. They all included Acronis True Image which is a breeze to use. I actually installed smaller drives than were originally in pc's and had no problem. These drives are super fast and will probably get at least extra two or more years life out of these pc's.
Cloning S/W not working 9/19/2014
H/W is ok. Cloning S/W did not work. Downloaded Acronis to clone.
Great SSD for the price 8/25/2014Jo from NY
We have been using Crucial SSDs in hundreds of client computers since the M4 model several years ago, including the M500 that this model replaces. The price vs. performance is very hard to beat. Also note that Crucial uses Micron Technology memory. Support an American based company. Highly recommended!
SSD for price 8/15/2014
Good SSD. I decided between kingston hyper x and this model. This is more sleek than kingston. And performance wise didn't see much difference.
Crucial MX100 8/14/2014Justin from Washington
Installed and booted no problem. Loads windows in 15 seconds. Got a great deal too.
Great Drive 7/29/2014John D from NJ
This has all the features like encryption support for a great price. Given the published reliability of these drive over the samsung, you can't go wrong unless you need that little extra performance from Samsung's top of the line offerings.

Poets McGrath and Mörling to read
Posted March 16, 2009; 04:37 p.m.
Poets Campbell McGrath and Malena Mörling will read from their work as part of the Althea Ward Clark Reading Series at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 25, in the Stewart Film Theater, 185 Nassau St.
McGrath is admired for accessible verse that explores the cultural and natural landscapes of the United States. Much of his work has been characterized as a witty and wise indictment of American consumerism. His latest poetry collection is "Seven Notebooks" (2008), a season-by-season accounting of a year in the life of its narrator, from spring in Chicago to summer at the Jersey Shore to winter in Miami Beach.
His previous collections include "Florida Poems" (2002), "Road Atlas" (1999), "Spring Comes to Chicago" (1996) and "American Noise" (1993). He is a three-time winner of the Academy of American Poets Prize, and a 1999 recipient of a MacArthur "genius grant."
Mörling, who also is a translator, has published poems in Ploughshares, New England Review, Countermeasures, Boulevard, Marlboro Review and Mudfish. She also has completed a manuscript of poems titled "Ocean Avenue."
Her translations into Swedish of Philip Levine's poems have been published in the Swedish journal Artes. She has translated into English recent poems by the Swedish poet Tomas Tranströmer that have appeared in a latest volume of his work in English, "For the Living and the Dead."
The reading series is sponsored by the Program in Creative Writing in the Lewis Center for the Arts.

Canadiens' Mike Cammalleri finishes off his scrap Thursday with Bruins' David Krejci.

• AUDIO: Jacques Martin | Michael Cammalleri | Josh Gorges | Scott Gomez | Max Pacioretty | Maxim Lapierre
The Canadiens took their practice to the Bell Sports Complex gym in Brossard today, the team preparing to leave tomorrow for Denver and Sunday's first of seven consecutive road games.
Head coach Jacques Martin expects to start goalie Carey Price in the three games next week that precede Christmas, and should use Alex Auld in at least one of the four between Christmas and New Year's Eve. The Habs play back-to-back games in Florida on Dec. 30 and 31.
None of the Canadiens spoken with today cared much for responding to charges that they're dirty players who do their biggest damage illegally and behind officials' backs. In the Boston Herald today, Stephen Harris begins his notebook as follows:

Trying to port some C++ code to Visual Studio 2005. It works fine with VS 2003 and G++. Keep yer snarky comments to yourselves :)
The C++ Standard Template Library defines a nice set of algorithms in its <algorithm> header. One of these is std::lower_bound(), which is basically a bsearch. Its prototype is:
lower_bound(iterator begin, iterator end,
value, predicate_type predicate)
predicate_type's rules are pretty simple: it's just a less-than operator. For instances of the specified types T1 and T2, it returns true if "t1 < t2" and false otherwise.
In my case, my iterated contents are a complex type, and the value type is an int. There is no requirement that T1 and T2 be of the same type. I define the predicate as follows:
int my_pred(const ComplexType& v1, int v2) { return v1.field < v2; }
In a lame attempt to be helpful, Microsoft checks that if "a" isn't less-than "b", then "b" shouldn't be less-than "a". In doing so, it assumes that the _Left and _Right types are interchangeable as far as the predicate _Pred is concerned, thus screwing me (and more importantly, the C++ standard) royally:
if (!_Pred(_Left, _Right)) return (false); else if (_Pred(_Right, _Left)) _DEBUG_ERROR2("invalid operator<", _Where, _Line);
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Hub. I used a functor class. It needed 3 functors:
(type, int), (int, type) and (type, type)

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is used to correct "puffy bags" below the eyes and drooping upper lids that make the patient look older and tired or that interferes with vision. Eyelid surgery will not remove wrinkles around the eyes, lift sagging eyebrows, or eliminate dark circles under the eyes.
Sagging eyelids are a normal part of aging. Fat deposits may increase as skin thins and wrinkles.
Incisions are made in the natural creases or folds of the eyelids. Underlying fat may be removed, excess skin is trimmed along the natural fold in the eyelid.
After healing, the scars fade and are unnoticeable.

Thrombocytopenia is any disorder in which there is an abnormally low amount of platelets. Platelets are parts of the blood that help blood to clot. This condition is sometimes associated with abnormal bleeding.
Thrombocytopenia is often divided into three major causes of low platelets:
Your bone marrow may not make enough platelets if you have:
Use of certain drugs may also lead to a low production of platelets in the bone marrow. The most common example is chemotherapy treatment.
The following health conditions cause increased breakdown of platelets:
You may not have any symptoms. General symptoms include:
Other symptoms depend on the cause.
Your health care provider will perform a physical exam and ask questions about your medical history and symptoms. The following tests may be done:
Other tests that may help diagnose this condition include:
Treatment depends on the cause of the condition. In some cases, a transfusion of platelets may be required to stop or prevent bleeding.
The outcome depends on the disorder causing the low platelet counts.
Severe bleeding (hemorrhage) is the main complication. Bleeding may occur in the brain or gastrointestinal tract.
Call your healthcare provider if you experience unexplained bleeding or bruising.
Prevention depends on the specific cause.

To blizzard: If you're going to improve gmon/mcount, please teach it that if there's an existing gmon.out in the working directory, then it should augment that file instead of clobbering it. That way, if you want to profile a program that runs for a short time, you could just run it a few thousand times in a shell loop. Right now you have to do that, plus rename the reports so they all get saved, and then crunch them together at the end. This takes much longer than it has to, and throws your results off because disk cache is wasted on the huge gmon.out files which all have to stay around until the end.
To make this change safely, you should probably save the identity of the executable in gmon.out, and start over if it changes. (This should be done anyway.)
I'd also like to see better kernelside support for profiling. setitimer(2) has a lot of overhead, and the ticks don't come nearly often enough. SVR4 has a profil(2) system call that pushes the histogram updates into the kernel, which gets rid of the overhead but doesn't help with the granularity. Also, I don't think it can handle gaps in the region to be profiled, so your program has to be statically linked.
I'd rather not add system calls. Instead, I envision a pseudo-device which you map several different times, specifying the window of the address space to profile. It can use the high-resolution timer in the RTC to get ticks more often than the normal timer interrupt. Updates happen in the driver, so no more 30% of execution time spent in __mcount_internal.
GCC/i386 has a stupid bug where it clobbers %edx on every function entry, when compiling with profiling. This breaks -mregparm. Okay, that doesn't affect very many people - it still needs to get fixed.

Dr. Peter Schakel of the Hope College English faculty will present the address "Entering Narnia: The Magic of Imagination in C.S. Lewis's Chronicles" on Wednesday, Oct. 18, at 4 p.m. in the Maas Center conference room.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
Schakel is an internationally respected scholar of C.S. Lewis's work and has written six books on Lewis, three of them about the Chronicles of Narnia. His most recent book about the Chronicles, "The Way into Narnia: A Reader's Guide," was published last year by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co. His first, "Reading with the Heart: The Way into Narnia," was published by Eerdmans in 1979.
The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis include seven books published between 1950 and 1956. The first in the series, "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe," was adapted as a live-action, big-budget film released last December by Walden Media and Walt Disney Pictures.
Schakel is the Peter C. and Emajean Cook Professor of English at Hope, where he has taught since 1969. In addition to his books about Lewis, his publications include a poetry anthology co-authored with Hope colleague Jack Ridl and two books on Jonathan Swift.
In 2004, Hope presented him with the "Ruth and John Reed Faculty Achievement Award," bestowed upon a faculty member who is a superior teacher and has also contributed significantly to some other area of professional life.
Schakel's address is being presented through the college's Arts and Humanities Colloquium Series. The Maas Center is located on Columbia Avenue at 11th Street.

slimy sludge algae?
I have this crap growing all over my tank, but only on my plants and my driftwood. Not on the glass, not on any of my equipment. It is especially bad on a few of my plants, my frill and my cabomba. It is slimy and brown. I have a 29 gallon, with numerous plants in it, frill, cabomba, ludwigia, a few fish, 3 cardinal tetras, 4 julii cories, and a single red crystal shrimp. I am running a API Rena XP3 with the two sponges, a full bag of carbon, a bag of Fluval Clearmax (for nitrate removal), and Rena Biochem Stars. I have one 54 watt t5 plant bulb over the tank that runs 8 hours a day. I do an 8 gallon water change every week, with gravel vacuuming.
Can someone tell me what it is? And maybe what I am doing wrong, to correct the problem?
I will try to post a photograph of it.
slimy and the habit of growing on plants sound like cyanobacteria(blue green algae) while brown would suggest diatoms. try looking up pictures of both types to compare.

it floats around like a slimy mess, but it stays together, unlike diatoms.
we'll need some pictures to help.
there are too many varieties of algae to guess which you have.
but one thing that is consistent between all solutions of algae is bigger water changes.
you are doing less than 10% a week, and probably have high nitrates.
what plants do you have?
are you dosing any ferts?
If its blue green algae, with is not actually an algae, your gonna have a rough time of it because it remains alive in the water column and invisible. The only was i got rid of it was to tear down the tank and soak everything that isn't porus in bleach, then i soaked in tap water for three days, then let it air, then soaked in tank water, this is extreme but it got the job done. Good luck hope you don't have it.6ft Australian Fresh water turtle tank - 2 macleay river turtles, numerous guppy at varying stages of development.
5ft 150gal planted discus tank - 8 discus, 10 cardinal tetras, 10 rummnose, 6 albino cories, and breeding RCS in tank sump and just about everywhere everything done from scratch, filtration and stand tank

less than 10 %? its closer to 30% actually, its 8 gallons a week on a 30 gallon tank. My plants are frill, cabomba, ludwigia, and two swords, a melon and a marble. I use ferts, (API Leaf Zone) but maybe a half dose, every week or two.
What are the nitrate levels and if you have the kit, phosphate levels? These feed algae and GBA. There two wastes are produced from fish waste and even food and are a bane. Even moderate nitrates are a killer if your phosphates are high and truth be told, everyone's phosphates are very high compared to natural environments.
To reduce phosphates two things are critical: stir the substrate deeply and as complete as possible when cleaning; second, do larger water changes - 8 gallons a week for a 29 is small. Yes, that sounds wrong but getting a 50% or higher will be needed. I have learned that substrates act like a sponge for phosphates and these release the stuf back into the tank water after even massive water changes. While the nitrates are then low, the BGA or algae feed well on the phosphates (that is why phosphates are not in most cleaners anymore - they kill lakes and rivers.)
To get rid of the BGA or if just normal algae: first, clean off all the plants and wood. Stir the substrate deeply; siphon off as much water as possible (90%). Now do bi-weekly 50% water changes for two weeks. AFter that, 50% water changes (and substrate cleaning) every week and be sure to clean up any waste food.
Consider a UV sterilizer. By the way, 'carbon' or activated charcoal is of zero use in the average home aquarium and a terrible waste of filter space. I'd suggest you dump that junk and add more bio-media instead. That will do far more for water quality, anyway!
I fought GBA all the time and I was doing 50% W/C mid-week and a 75+% W/C every weekend (in a two 75 gal aquariums!); yet the stuff came back time and again. I then got an alage scrubber and the stuff has been brought under control (but still threatens - I've now started a new process which appears to have defeated the stuff and that is in the discus thread if you want to read about that.)
If you have algae and not BGA, most likely it is still phosphates combined with nitrates so the above will help. But also look at your lights (on for too long, old bulbs) and/or poor selection of ferts.
Best of luck.Knowledge is fun(damental)
A 75 gal with eight Discus, fake plants, and a lot of wood also with sand substrate. Clean up crew is down to just two Sterba's Corys. Filters: continuous new water flow; canister w/UV, in-tank algae scrubber!! Finally, junked the nitrate removal unit from hell.

TUPELO – For Mooreville Middle School educator Tracy Lyle, teaching means providing different experiences for each of her students.
Her commitment to that goal earned Lyle recognition on Tuesday night as the Lee County School District's Teacher of the Year.
"One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students," Lyle wrote when describing her teaching philosophy on the teacher-of-the-year application form. "I feel there is a need for compassionate, strong and dedicated individuals who are excited about working with children.
"In our competitive society it is important for students to not only receive a solid education, but to work with someone who is aware of and sensitive to their individual needs."
Lyle was honored at the district's school board meeting, where each individual school's Teachers of the Year also were recognized. After being chosen by their schools, those teachers filled out an application that was evaluated by a panel of three retired teachers. Lyle will now compete for state Teacher of the Year honors.
"She cares about her kids in the classroom, and she wants to make sure she gives them everything she can to make them successful," said Lee County Superintendent Jimmy Weeks, who was principal at Mooreville Elementary when Lyle taught there.
Lyle is in her second year at Mooreville Middle School, where she teaches seventh-grade language arts. She taught third grade at Mooreville Elementary for three years and taught in the Tupelo Public School District for 16 years.
Individual Teacher of the Year winners for Lee County schools:
Mooreville High: Rhonda Pennington
Plantersville Middle: Pamela Lettieri
Saltillo High: Charles "Chuck" Hampton
Saltillo Elementary: Karen Nissen
Saltillo Primary: Joyce Rodgers
Shannon Primary: Stephanie McEwen
Mooreville Middle: Tracy Lyle

I've written a lot about the battle between Qihoo 360 Technology (QIHU) and Baidu (BIDU) for the hearts and browsers of Chinese consumers. But the war is really among all of China's internet players, from Alibaba and Sina (SINA) to Tencent (0700.HK) and Sohu.com (SOHU)–and it's to create the platform that will dominate mobile.
While the winner remains unknowable, Qihoo is "in the midst of an innovation wave," say Stifel's George Askew, Zim Yin, and Steve Rubis. They write:
[Qihoo] has seen the beta-testing of a new mobile search engine still largely under wraps, the launch of the company's first two Wifi wireless router models, and the formal launch of international English-language versions of 360 PC and mobile security products. We believe the new search engine and the router launches are clear strategies by Qihoo to aggressively address mobile Internet user needs.
Lest anyone think these steps are merely about optics, Stifel's analysts think they'll have a meaningful impact on the bottom line. They boosted Qihoo's search revenue and EBITDA forecasts, and increased their price target to $55.00, a 19% premium to Friday's close.
Qihoo has gained 2.5% to $47.31 today, while Baidu has dropped 1.3% to $93.34.

Egyptian military institutes new media restrictions
New York, September 13, 2011--The Committee to Protect Journalists is alarmed by the new measures taken by Egypt's ruling military council. In recent days, the military announced that it would actively enforce the Hosni Mubarak-era Emergency Law, which allows civilians, including journalists, to be tried in state security courts. Other recent anti-press measures include an Al-Jazeera bureau being raided and shut down, the military announcing a "temporary freeze" on issuing licenses to satellite television stations, and a foreign blogger being denied entry into the country.
