Clicking sound...then came the death.
By NYC212 10036
from New York, NY
About Me Casual user
Comments about Seagate� Hard Drives; Expansion Desktop, 3TB:
I have been happily using external HDs by Hitachi, Toshiba, etc. to backup my personal data. Upon hearing that Seagate external HDs were supposed to be among the best, I decided to give them a try and purchased this one. What a mistake it was!After a couple of weeks of light use, it began making this occasional clicking noise (which I knew was a bad sign) and, within a few days, it died altogether and my data could no longer be accessed.Luckily, the data loss was not too severe, as I had started to migrate my data to other devices upon hearing the clicking noise. But, then, what's the point of purchasing a backup unit if you need to backup the backup!Just to clarify, I am the only person who used this unit (correctly, I might add), and no shock or "trauma" was inflicted on it at all.They offered to service the unit for free (and possibly replace it, depending on the outcome) but there's no way I'd trust another Seagate unit--ever!

Great drives ...but get hot in the case
By Carl B
from Westborough, MA
Staples had a great deal on these drives and I got two of them. When using CrystalDisk info, a warning for temperature would pop up when I started backing up data, with a warning the drive was at 122 degrees.I have since removed the drives from their cases and will be putting them into an air cooled NAS box. A good plus for those that do take out the drive is that they run great and cool on a regular SATA port, they are model ST3000DM001 and you will have a USB 3 controller card as well from the enclosure to use on any drive (For those who test drives out of the computer case).
Great drive with lots of room
This is a great drive once it is out of the case. While in the case and under test load, Crystal Disk info came up with a "Caution" temp alert. The drive got to 122 degrees while in the factory case. It really needs to have a fan or something to help the air flow.

USB 2 does not give full 3 TB on Mac
By KH
from LA
About Me Power user
Using the USB 3 cable included, my Mac sees the drive as a 3 TB external device. After removing the drive and placing it in an actively cooled enclosure with a fan (this was intended to be used as an all-day, every-day Time Machine drive for four computers on the network and would get too hot in the stock Seagate enclosure), it wouldn't mount and Disk Utility sees it as a 800 GB drive. So what happened to the other 2.2 TB?Turns out it's a problem with the Seagate drive, not the USB3 or the enclosure.The drive gets too hot to be used in the supplied housing, and can't be removed to a better housing, so I give it one star.

Pretty fast 3tb but it does get hot
By Slickdealer
from los angeles, Ca
Dislcaimer: I purchased this knowing that I would remove the drive and place this into my desktop computer.That being said, I did plug it in with the supplied cord/cable to make sure that windows 8 saw the drive and ran chkdsk to make sure the drive did not have any errors. After confirming that there were none, I gleefully opened up the case and extracted the 3tb drive: ST3000DM001. 7200rpm.Enclosure was easy to open with a box cutter and a credit card to shimmy the clips. Start at the top middle of the case (the bottom would be where the seagate logo is) and work your way around the edges. If you use a credit card, you shouldn't break any plastic clips, thereby allowing you to reuse the enclosure for an older 1tb drive while still being able to use the USB 3.0 transfer speed. (roughly 80 mb/sec) USB 2.0 is around 30-40 mb/sec)I tested the drive using crystal disk mark in my desktop PC using the sata cable and here are my resultsRead: 167.1 Write: 166.3512k: 55.63 Write: 89.504k: .461 Write: 7.4304kQD32 0.574 Write: 0.767There are always chances of failures with mechanical hard disk drives but I've had a seagate 1.5tb external hard drive from 4 years ago that is still going strong. I didn't test the drive using the USB 3.0 with crystaldiskmark so the 80mb/sec is what I've read elsewhere.Heat will shorten the lifespan of a hard disk drive and this drive does get pretty warm if it is being used to transfer large amounts of files. This is where most drives tend to fail.Summary: using the drive internally with a sata cable is twice as fast than using USB 3.0. Convenience plays a large factor though as you can't move your internal drive and connect it to another computer for shared usage.Also: if you pull this drive out, you will need to reformat it as windows will only see 349gb.search "Change a Master Boot Record Disk into a GUID Partition Table Disk" to allow windows to see the full 2.789tb.Awesome buy!

Deleted my files after less than an hour
By Mod9k
from Kansas
After buying this I was told by a friend who has the 1T model that his files sometime just disappear. He said that it seemed to happen when he moved files from one location to another. I was hoping that this was just an issue with his unit but unfortunately after less then and hour moving family photos it deleted everything and I mean EVERYTHING. I'm so mad right now. I started by making a new folder and then putting four folder under this one labeled "Movies", "Photos", " Videos", and "Music". Then I added a folder in the photos folder labeled "Our Family". I added another folder in our family labeled with the date the photos had been taken and where. These were our family portraits for 2012. I then added several other photos just in the our family folder. I had around 50 or so at this point. Next I was going to move over a video and made a folder called "Our Family" in the video folder. It started to transfer the video and then after about ten minutes it errored out and then POOF everything was gone. I'm so glad I didn't load more onto this piece of junk.You've been warned. This hard drive will delete your files without warning. There one second, totally gone the next.

Completely Failed After 3 Months Use
By Felix, Student
from Vermont
I bought this because Seagate is bar-none the cheapest manufacturer of hard drives and it turns out you get what you pay for. The drive failed completely only have three months of intermittent use. It deleted all my family photos, 38,000 songs and every personal document I'd written in the past 9 years. This was purchased as a replacement for another Seagate hard drive that failed, and it is safe to say that they have lost my business entirely. The only reason to buy this brand is because of the price, which is absolutely not worth it. Please do not buy this, or any other Seagate drive.

Good drive purchased a 2nd one
By justUS2FL
from Central Florida
Have had a mth. Purchased a 2nd one. Back up my DVD Collection after loosing some Orig dvd went bad and a BUNCH of Memorex RITEK BACKUPS are bad after 12/24 mths old. Can put about 500 to 550 dvd movie only, on one drive leaving 15% space. I dont get why the guy who says drive died after 1 mth did his own repairs when it has a 1 yr warranty

Does not work with Windows 7 backup
By Alex Derr
from Seal Rock, OR
Windows 7 built-in Backup And Restore does not function with external drives larger than 2.2 TB. If you try to run Windows 7 backup with this 3 TB drive, it will run for an hour or more before returning error code 0x8078002A. Google this error code, and you will find:A) 2.2 TB is a hard limit for external drives when used with Windows 7 Backup and Restore.B) Microsoft knows this to be true, and offers no solution.C) Seagate knows this to be true, and offers no solution.D) Western Digital knows this to be true, and supplies a software patch, but it only works with Western Digital 3 TB drives. This product is advertised as being compatible with Windows 7, but it is not. You can drag and drop files to it, but it will not function as a backup device. Yes, I tried partitioning, reformatting with different sector sizes, and wasted a day running chkdsk to make sure the problem wasn't my internal drive. This drive works fine as external storage, but if you want external backup, get a drive no larger than 2.2 TB.

Decent Drive
By Kyle by the Nile
from Atlanta, GA
I bought this external hard drive to use for backing up my video files. The drive stopped working after 1 month of light use. I found out that the case that holds the drive quit working. I was able to install the drive internally in a desktop computer. I had to reformat. The drive itself is working fine now, but I bought it as an external drive that I could use to move from computer to computer and it no longer has that ability.In the future I will go with another brand. I would only purchase this again if it was on deep discount and even then I would't count on using it as an external drive.

Pretty sure The Seahawks have never had a pick in the NBA draft.
deandre jordan... that's who i see.
Guy's never missed the playoffs. Give him a break.
You're delusional if you think that making the NBA finals has no value.
This guy has a 64% career win Percentage. His firing could be the break this team needs.
*never Failed to MAKE the postseason the (year he resigned from the heat is aN exception)
did you do any research at all before opening your mouth? Van Gundy took his team to the finals and appeared in the playoffs every year while with the magic. AND he has never failed to miss the post season.
*Reloading. Not rebuilding.
https://www.facebook.com/TrailBlazersForJerrySloan It's who we need.
hope fooooorrr https://www.facebook.com/TrailBlazersForJerrySloan
Exactly John. The worst that can happen if Paul gives Mr. Sloan a call and he picked up the phone, and he would scoff when asked to join the Trail Blazers. But how is the Nerd supposed to get the Pretty girl unless he ask's for a date? I'ts worth a shot.
Hey john. https://www.facebook.com/TrailBlazersForJerrySloan
good job making of a conspiracy out of thin air. CJ was cut because of the 2 incoming centers from a trade and Johnson's lack of improvement this season over last season.
ddin't mesh well i guess. not a attitude problem but maybe a system thing. anyways in the time he was there for he avg 5 pts and 5 boards in limited time. he'll do much better on this blazers team i'd imagine. To bad for Thomas and C. Smith.
teams with the worst record get first dibs i believe.
We can look to the future all we want with J.J. but this guy is good NOW!
they would have too but it looks like the blazers agree to pay the remaining amount of his rookie contract
this is a goooood pick-up. i have been a fan of him since his rookie year.

Bat For Lashes
Brighton, England's Bat for Lashes is the brainchild of singer/songwriter Natasha Khan. The Pakistan-born Khan pulls from her art school education and her experience producing multimedia installations when it comes to writing songs. She also cites Steve Reich and Susan Hiller as influences, while echoes of Björk and Siouxsie Sioux are heard throughout Bat for Lashes' mystical indie rock sound. Bat for Lashes' first single, "The Wizard," was digitally released by DiS, and issued as a 7" on Khan's own She Bear imprint in early 2006. That fall, with "Trophy" burning up the BBC indie rock chart, the Fur & Gold LP arrived in the U.K. in September. The album was released a year later in the U.S. to much critical acclaim. Bat for Lashes' ambitious 2009 album, Two Suns, revolved around the concept of Khan and her blonde, hedonistic alter ego Pearl, and featured a duet with Scott Walker. Khan's third album, 2012's The Haunted Man, raised eyebrows with its cover image depicting her in the nude, but songs such as the single "Laura" were more subtle and subdued than Bat for Lashes' previous efforts. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

By NICK SLOAN, firstname.lastname@example.com
Piper, Lansing, Bonner Springs and Bishop Ward squared off in a set of 7-on-7 football games at Piper High School Monday evening.
- When Lansing was executing, they were absolutely clicking. The moved the ball relentlessly on offense and their defense was impressive in stretches against all three teams. While the Kaw Valley League loses some talent, Lansing appears ready to challenge for the upper tier in the league. Lansing's passing game was very sharp and it was easy to be impressed with them, unless of course you were the judges involved in the Manny Pacquiao fight from last weekend.
- Paul Jones continues to impress me on the offensive side of the ball. PJ is a very fun player to watch for the Pirates and with his senior season coming up, it's his time to shine on the Piper offense. Jones is a very nice weapon out of the backfield who can run routes well and has excellent hands. Jones and Tanner Eikenbary connected on another 40-yard touchdown this week. Jones is also a very physical cornerback who could make an impact on defense.
- Piper's Colton Beebe is ready to take the next step up and challenge for an All-Kaw Valley League spot at the tight end position. Beebe made some nice catches Monday in all three games. He's a physical player who will be a big threat in the red zone.
- Speaking of another young talent ready to go, Bonner Springs' Kyle Dumler was outstanding Monday night. No player impressed me more than Dumler did. Playing on defense, the big man demonstrated that he can cover routes effectively against good athletes, which is a bonus for someone his size. Dumler is one of the very few players in Wyandotte County who could be a favorite to make both the All-KCK Preps Offensive and All-KCK Preps Defensive teams. He's an excellent prospect for a Bonner Springs defense that's looking to improve this year. And oh yeah, he's a heck of an offensive lineman.
- Some good news for Piper fans: Matt McDonald is ready to go. McDonald was "released" off of injury just this week. McDonald was an underrated running back in the metro last year and he should help the Pirates be very balanced on offense next year.
- Bonner Springs has traveled to Lee's Summit, Mo., and Manhattan, Kan., for recent 7-on-7 events after they performed last week in Basehor. You could see the improvement. I was blown away with how Bonner Springs executed, especially on defense. As bizarre as this sounds, Bonner Springs displayed the importance of 7-on-7's with their performance on Monday. The defense had no missed assignments from what I saw and the only time I saw them get burned by an offense was because of timing. The Braves had five interceptions against Bishop Ward alone. Kudos to head coach Lucas Aslin, his staff and the team for an excellent performance.
- Speaking of Bishop Ward, their offense is certainly a work in progress. New head coach Tim Dorian loves running the ball based on his work at Schlagle, so that was out of his arsenal this week because of the rules. However, Ward's passing attack needs a lot of work. The offense tossed at least seven interceptions from what I saw, but the good news is they have time to improve.
- That said, the Bishop Ward defense played stiff at times. They picked off Braves quarterback Jordan Jackson and they did a nice job of deflecting passes.

"Currently the system is that the schools are the ones that elect how the information is given to the military, and we're concerned that the parents don't have the final say in that."
The Natural Inquirer is a science journal directed at middle school-aged children, which has come out with its very own trading cards featuring US Forest Service scientists.
The people at the Inquirer found that teachers and students alike benefited from learning about the scientists behind their experiments.

Wasn't Guernsey awesome, Misty?! I even had to blog about it after because I loved it so much.
I'm currently readingFarm City by Novella Carpenter and seed catalogs. I just finished Pride & Prejudice & Zombies which was a HOOT! I'm pre-reading The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins for my 10yo, and will probably break down and re-read the Percy Jackson series (since I've only listened to them) because DH is convinced I'll love them that way - I don't like the audio versions at all.

Tex Avery, King of Cartoons (Joe Adamson, bought Mar 2012)
I'm crazy for Avery, always have been. Watching the early Tex Avery feature I Love to Singa on teatime BBC1 is one of my earliest TV memories. Avery's surreal havoc still cracks me up now: Bad Luck Blackie, Red Hot Riding Hood, King Size Canary, Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. The hair-in-the-projector-gate gag in the Magical Maestro remains a riot, if strangely chilling.
This 1975 retrospective of Avery's work is a quick read and a useful introduction. After briefly retelling animation's early history (taking Winsor McCay's Gertie The Dinosaur as its starting point) the book recounts Avery's career through his best and most famous cartoons. King of Cartoons closes with three chatty interviews. Adamson talks to Michael Maltese and Heck Allen, two of Avery's gagmen, and Avery himself. There is some fascinating material here, particularly the gossip on Avery's producers: the commercial-minded Leon Schlesinger and his love of gambling, the managerial Fred Quimby and his seemingly absent sense of humour.
Adamson's writing is exuberant and he writes as an informed aficionado. There is a flavour of Adamson's exuberance in this passage, where my all-time favourite Avery creation is described:
Screwy Squirrel is Daffy Duck taken one step further than he absolutely has to. A funny character who is slightly insane, like a Harpo Marx or a Woody Allen, has a subversive sort of captivating quality, but a maniac who resolutely flaunts his insanity is a little more than frightening. His starring vehicles take a hardy constitution to endure, though they exhibit their creator's comic genius all the same.
Thanks to the internet, many of Tex Avery's cartoons are freely available to watch. As is, incidentally, Gertie The Dinosaur.

I was watching "How the West Was Won," the rather two-dimensional film from the 1960s, when I was realizing the movie seemed to be all about space, and how cyberspace also is a range war, a street fight, the season of conflict, the Net's counter-cultural O.K. Corral.
Each day, the diverse members of the global Web community slug it out like overactive children on an unsupervised playground. The issues flare up daily: privacy this, security that, threats to free speech, to decency, to copyright law and intellectual property claims, threats to tax e-commerce, threats of all kinds of legislation to regulate the Web, threats of wild-eyed Libertarian rhetoric promising to keep that from happening, threats to every brick-and-mortar truth that we once cherished to be trustworthy, orderly, efficient or real.
And lawsuits, yes, lots and lots of lawsuits. What's more, the revolution in communications innovation has led a segment of the Net nation to curse across this anarchic, stormy digital sea with a capital "C," as in the request to "Control this, please!" Upon seeing this in print or online or hearing it from our reeling leaders, the other part of the equation, the more experienced, Net-savvy geeks, immediately plea, "Don't fence me in!" Indeed, the Web-related news crosses our eyes like a video game called "History Repeats," if only because the contestants resonate with such haunting familiarity.
The terrain is populated with pioneers, with homesteaders, with cybersquatters, with megalomaniac innovators that we compare to either the robber barons of yesteryear, or, the persecuted visionaries of wannabe e-topia. We have restless natives, chattels of free and easy prostitution, unlocked "back doors" in operating system software for marauding outlaws, code-slinging ne'er do wells, a devious bogey folk all politely pointed out to us by reformed "hackavists," who paint themselves as benevolent civil servants because they claim to the wear white----as opposed to black----10-gallon hats.
Just what is it about this evergreen myth about the Old West that many find so relevant, so hip, so instructive, so seductive? In the past, the image of the cowboy has sold everything from cars to cigarettes to movie tickets to presidents, and now it's being used on the Web. But does it ring true, help the cause of liberty that it's supposed to mythologize? If it's a falsehood, is holding on to an oversimplification damaging to the very same virtues it's supposed to espouse? And if the Web is global, how does this Wild, Wild West fantasy play in London, Bejing or Bahrain … or even middle America, which abhors anarchy, smarty pants libertinism, doesn't know a Harvard philosopher geek's think tank from a hole-in-the-wall Web site offering electronic lotto, and never will?
Let us count the many, many ways that the metaphor can be applied as an aid to understanding the Web as a once-wild place that's passing before our eyes, and how its center----due to the unique "nature" of the Web----cannot hold … A Beaconing Bonanza The e-commerce trading posts are well attuned to the power of myth. For example, a radio commercial for Wells-Fargo connects the dots from the early days of the Pony Express and the stage coaches that linked the frontier's far-flung outposts, and then brings us up to date on how their pioneer legacy continues by offering home loans online. Certainly, the television commercials promoting the Internet sound like "repurposed" Horace Greeley, extorting, this time, "Go Web, young man."
But many potential consumers believe it's still a jungle out there: Harvesting personal data on Net user habits without getting prior permission. Having the FTC investigate the matter didn't hurt. For a consumer out in the wild, the weapon of choice is no longer the Colt .45 or Winchester rifle. Instead, it's anonymizing security and encryption software. Calling in the Cavalry Crossing the new frontier, homesteaders want protection from porn sites, hate sites, stalkers, from manipulators working the strings like programming puppeteers. While the "normal folk" settlers on the frontier cry for safety from insidious raids and invasions of privacy by nefarious operators big and small, U.S. government officials raise (maybe even promote) concerns about how denial of service assaults and a drop in consumer confidence over the Web can stall the booming economy.
People want sweeping powers to locate and prosecute the black-hatted hackers, as well as to investigate this new field of crime in general. Anonymous is public enemy No. 1.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, as deputy attorney general for the Clinton administration, said a decade ago he was discussing the introduction of "legal tools to locate, identify, and prosecute cyber criminals."
Any response to this prospect has always depended on an individual's tolerance for government interference, and what they think Marshall McLuhan was thinking when he wrote, "Men on frontiers, whether of time or space, abandon their previous identities. Neighborhood gives identity. Frontiers snatch it away." If lawmakers define their models for confinement and control in the benevolent terms of prudence, justice and public safety, Civil libertarians, with nearly fundamentalist faith in the anonymous browser on the wide-open frontier, blanch with abject paranoia.
Indeed, it doesn't soothe such concerns when the administration and congressional leaders, preaching privacy to the masses, are constantly looking for new opportunities to invade it. For example, signed to law by Congress in 1994, the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) required the telecommunications industry to design systems that comply with FBI technical guidelines to facilitate electronic surveillance. The Clinton administration's intent on Internet regulation was a wild and wooly attempt to navigate the new internet, anything the Web could offer. At times, a laissez faire approach: self-regulatory conduct was encouraged, as was public education on "cyberethics," and voluntary cooperation between law enforcement and private industry.
But even as Clinton announced that "first and foremost, we have to safeguard our citizens' privacy," CBS' "60 Minutes" was investigating the National Security Agency's designed and operated (in cooperation with Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom) global surveillance network, Echelon, which monitors international phone calls, faxes and e-mail transmissions. A report commissioned by the European Parliament accused the United States of using Echelon for commercial espionage. The NSA denied it listens in on U.S. citizens (which would in fact be illegal), that's a fantasy at best and a lie at worst for a realm that knows no borders.
Call some place paradise … To the old-timers and free-speech advocates, the threats of e-commerce far outweigh any invasive possibilities raised by the Feds, NSA spooks or whole brigades of hackers. To this group, the birth of the World Wide Web is as fondly romanticized as the birth of the Republic itself. Ah, those bygone days of egalitarianism, fraternity and liberty, to the promise of the New Jerusalem … Onward to the wild frontier, the virgin country, the uncharted expanse, served hot with an espresso at the cyber café. But then came, so the elitist fable goes, Netscape and Internet Explorer, and every man and woman became an online Lewis and Clark. Suddenly, the chat room is full of Okkies. So free-thinker's paradise is trampled, apparently, in the mad, mad rush to turn the enlightenment salon into a cash cow. And who can argue?
That's what mankind does with space, after all, be it outer, inner, cyber or dirt-real. Property lines are plotted, fences are posted, whole glittering dot-cities of commerce rise on the prairie. Then somebody builds a better search engine, and there's a gold rush, followed by another great migration. Before you know it, virtual ghost towns and other old links clutter each Boolean search page, all of the wild meat is either trapped or on display at the Yahoo.com city zoo, and the once-fertile field of opportunity seems overcrowded. So-called "psychological space" seems to have been appropriated by Mammon himself. The end result is a medium that's increasingly safe, sanitized and navigable. But it's also as mundane as the rest of Mall America on every bleak, bland, pointless day of week.
Nice thing about the post-Dubya, Obama administration years is this: With social media, he who controls and leverages and shares information, is both a rogue cop and a hyper-pedestrian on a two-way street. Making the whole internet a kind of bee hive of humanitarian concerns, as well as, as the late novelist Edward Abbey might put it: "Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread."
(Editor's note, this piece is kind of a new take on an old idea, originating at Access Internet Magazine in the year 2,000. Thoughts along the same lines are detailed, and still relevant, in my book, "Human Search Engine," as well as "23 Roads to Mythville.")

When Niagara coach Joe Mihalich tells you the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference is wide open, he means it.
And hes not just talking in coach speak.
Every coach in America is going to say its wide open and anybody can win it. If anybody really means it, its the 10 coaches in this league, said Mihalich, whose Purple Eagles are the top seed and await the winner of the play-in game between eighth-seeded Marist and ninth-seeded Siena.
Niagara went 18-12 this season and 13-5 in the league, claiming the regular-season title outright.
Rider and Loyola finished one game behind with Canisius and Iona coming in two back.
The charm of our team is that we can lose to anybody, Mihalich said.
Really, anybody in the top eight has a chance to get to the final. Its what makes this tournament so compelling.
I think we have the best true mid-major league in the country, said outspoken Loyola coach Jimmy Patsos, whose team is trying to repeat as tournament champions in its last season in the MAAC before leaving for the Patriot League.
Our teams just rotate. Weve been bad. Weve been good. Rider is probably the surprise team this year. This is a tough league. Its a great mid-major league. Its not just 1 and 2 playing and saying what a great game.
Players to Watch
MoMo Jones (Iona) Senior guard leads the league in scoring at 23.2 points per game which also ranks him third nationally. Hes the best pure scorer in the conference and has the ability to get 35-40 points on any given night and beat you by himself.
Juanya Green (Niagara) Purple Eagles point guard does it all. He can score (17 ppg) or set teammates up (5 apg). He makes this team win, Mihalich said. He put his team in first place. Juanya Greens team is in first place.
Antoine Mason (Niagara) Second to Jones in scoring at 18.3 ppg, Mason, the son of former NBA All-Star Anthony Mason, missed four games with a sprained ankle but returned for the final three contests. Mihalich said hes ready to go and 100 percent.
Billy Baron (Canisius) What a difference a player makes? Barons a major factor in Griffs turnaround. He averages 16.6 ppg, while dishing out a league-best 5.1 assists per contest.
Erik Etherly (Loyola) Greyhounds forward averages 16.2 ppg and gives them an inside presence thats tough to stop.
O.D. Anosike (Siena) Last song for Saints senior, who once again leads conference in rebounding at 11.4 per game. Sienas bad, but Anosikes had a fine career.
Danny Stewart (Rider) Junior forward can put up a double-double on any given night and undersized Broncs need him to clean the glass.
The Favorite
Niagaras the top seed and has the dynamic Green/Mason backcourt.
Last year, we played all those freshmen and they got better, Mihalich said. They got more confidence and theyre pretty darn good. Its a good group of guys that has a will to win and a toughness about them.
The Sleeper
Its hard to call the No. 2 seed a sleeper, but Rider still seems to fly under the radar.
The Broncs are the hottest team, coming in winners of five straight and seven of eight and have the best player nobody talks about in Jon Thompson.
The Pick
Loyola leaves with a nice going away present.
The Greyhounds get after it defensively and stifle Jones Iona in the final.

North Korea to carry out nuclear test
28/08/2003 - 18:16:16North Korea announced today that it intends to formally declare its possession of nuclear weapons and to carry out a nuclear test, a US official said.
North Korean Deputy Foreign Minister Kim Yong Il also told the six nation summit in Beijing that his country has the means to deliver nuclear weapons, an apparent reference to the North's highly developed missile programme.
The comments cast a pall over today's session, which included representatives of the US, South Korea, China, Japan and Russia, in addition to North Korea.
Earlier, summit delegates attempting to defuse the US-North Korea nuclear dispute indicated they had agreed on further talks to keep the fragile diplomatic process moving.
A Russian official said there was a "common understanding" to talk again within two months, and South Korea said everyone had concurred that a second summit would be beneficial to all involved.

CAP1 - Special Poll - Dream World Ability Poll
The Fifth Generation of Pokemon introduced a revolutionary new concept to competitive Pokemon: Dream World Pokemon with different abilities than ordinary Pokemon, allowing some Pokemon to have THREE abilities. Because some Dream World Pokemon are all male, Dream World abilities can have unusual limitations on the movepools of these Pokemon. Because we may choose to limit Tomohawk's movepool in this way, it is important for us to decide at this time whether we wish for the secondary ability, Prankster, to be the Dream World ability, or for a flavor ability to be the Dream World ability, or even to have no Dream World ability whatsoever. This poll will decide what the Dream World ability will be. If Prankster is chosen as the Dream World ability, the poll to choose a flavor ability (if any) will still be held, but it will become the secondary ability.
This will be a Bold Vote, meaning you may choose one and only one option. The options in this poll are Prankster, Flavor Ability, and No Dream World Ability. Here is our Pokemon so far: Quote:
Typing: Flying/Fighting Base Stats: 105 HP/60 Atk/90 Def/115 SpA/80 SpD/85 Spe Abilities: Intimidate/Prankster Here is a list of all the allowed moves that could play a role in this decision: Aromatherapy/Heal Bell Baton Pass Circle Throw Clear Smog Confuse Ray Counter Curse Detect Dragon Tail Encore Gravity Haze Healing Wish Hone Claws Ingrain Knock Off Magic Coat Block/Mean Look Memento Mirror Coat Moonlight/Morning Sun Perish Song Psycho Shift Rain Dance Rapid Spin Recover, Slack Off, etc. Reflect Refresh Roar/Whirlwind Roost Stealth Rock Taunt U-Turn Wish Yawn Acrobatics Air Slash Brave Bird Close Combat Crunch Drain Punch Dragon Claw Dual Chop Drill Peck Earth Power Fake Out Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Heat Wave Focus Blast Focus Punch Grass Knot Hammer Arm Hurricane Icy Wind Low Kick Mach Punch Psychic Psyshock Rock Slide Super Fang Superpower Vacuum Wave Volt Switch This poll will close in 24 hours. Choose wisely! |

Flavor ability and No Dream World ability are pretty much the same thing but they're competing against each other =/. This is giving Prankster an edge in the poll.

I hate the idea of hidden ability illegalities. It seems really iffy since we don't even know for sure if the all-male quality was intended or if it's going to last. Also, we should really stop calling them "Dream World abilities" and just call them "hidden abilities" -.- Flavor Ability because most Gen V Pokémon have them.

The only real Pokémon with no hidden abilities are stuff like Kecleon and Castform (heaviliy tied to their ability concept-wise), most legendaries and Pokémon with Levitate as their only ability (or evolved from Levitate-only Pokémon like Dusclops/noir), and I recall Starly being the only exception (though not really, since veekun gives Keen Eye both as normal and hidden ability which should be considered separate since Staravia/raptor get Reckess instead of Intimidate). Tomohawk doesn't fit in any of these categories, so I think he should get one. |

Why would I want to use journal articles in my research?
Journal articles are most often written by professors at colleges and universities---experts in the field! They are current and usually narrowly focused, such as a study of one aspect of a public policy, or an examination of a particular type of political decision making. References are included to document the sources of information. Articles are often "peer reviewed." Journals are published by university presses or professional political science organizations.

I am trying to integrate the build process of my grails app with ant. I was reading http://grails.org/doc/latest/guide/commandLine.html where it mentions I can use the "grails integrate-with --ant" switch that creates a build.xml and some ivy files automatically. It created the files, however when I launch "ant war" it fails complaining about dependencies for ivy. Currently, only one dependency is failing org.springframework.uaa.client:1.0.2.RELEASE.jar. The console output shoes that it tried at the 4 default mirrors mentioned in the ivy files, but none of them have it. That baffles me.
Is anyone else running into this issue ? Any suggestions ? Anyone have a fix ?

Look RSP 5 Carbon Bicycle Seat Post
The RSP saddle stem allows returning to a traditional saddle stem (that slides in the frame) on a frame equipped with an integrated saddle stem tube of E-Post section. It is very useful when the possible raise of 30 mm of the E-Post is not sufficient.
Through this great capacity of height setting, this saddle stem is an excellent answer to consumers who wish to resell their like to someone much taller.
Thus facilitates saddle height settings when testing the bike.
Attention, although the RSP saddle stem is designed to be confortable, passing to RSP will be less efficient than the E-Post technology to filter vibrations. The sensation of comfort on the bike will thus be less important.
RSP Road | RSP R5 | |
Retraction | -15 to -45 mm | + or – 5 mm |
Total height:(carriage axis / end of tube) | 357 mm | 325 mm |
Minimal insertion | 80 mm | 80 mm |
Working depth:(carriage axis / insertion limit) | 277 mm | 245 mm |
Setting capacity | 200 mm | 200 mm |
Saddle stem head height | 77 mm | 45 mm |
Weight | 210 g | 210 g |
ATTENTION: Because of the morphology of LOOK frames, cutting of the saddle stem along the indicated limit (90 mm from the end of the sheath) will be necessary to reach the lowest positions.

Starter's Guide to E LiquidThis guide should give you everything you need to know about e liquid. What is E liquid? E liquid is the solution that you put into an electronic cigarette which gives it its nicotine, its flavour and its vapour. Without e liquid, your e cig wont work!The main ingredients in E-liquid are Propylene Glycol (which is what makes the e liquid give off vapour) Nicotine and Flavourings. You buy it in a small bottle which you can purchase on the Simply E liquid website. What e liquid do I choose? There are lots of e liquid bottles to choose from, but generally speaking you choose in terms of flavour and strength. When it comes to flavour, e liquid comes in a rainbow of flavours! You can get anything from chocolate to apple, to champagne and vanilla or menthol. You can be really experimental; and mix your own, using DIY e liquid mixing kits, although this is for the more advanced e cig user! For those wanting to replicate the taste of normal cigarettes, you can buy tobacco e liquids which give you a close and high quality vaping experience. When it comes to strength, E liquid contains nicotine which comes in high to low strengths. You can get e liquid with no nicotine in it at all, this will be indicated by 0mg on the bottle. You can then go from low strengths (6-11mg), to medium strengths (14-18mg medium), to high strengths (18-26mg) and you can even get super high strengths for the heavier smoker. Choosing a flavour is somewhat easier than choosing a strength. You can experiment with trying different flavours and if you dont like them, you can change it to something else. However, when choosing your e liquid strength, you need to think carefully about your smoking habits and how much nicotine your body is used to. For example, if you a light smoker, you do not want to try a high dose of nicotine e liquid as your body may not be used to that sort of intake. This may lead you to feel sick or light headed! If you are a heavier smoker on the other hand, then you will probably need a higher nicotine level to match what you are used to. You can always wean yourself off nicotine by gradually reducing your dosage over time. Basically, you should buy the e liquid that best matches your current nicotine usage so that you can get used to the electronic cigarette as a first time user. Some people differ their e liquid strengths throughout the day or depending on occasion. If you like to smoke throughout the day continuously then you may want to choose a lower nicotine strength e liquid and change it to a higher dose if you only smoke once in the evening. What is the vapour that is given off? The e liquid burns and produces a vapour but this is not harmful to inhale like ordinary cigarette smoke. Is E Liquid safe for me to use? E liquid is safe and fully approved provided you buy form reputable sellers like Simply E Liquid. You should also remember to keep your e liquid away from children and never ingest e liquid either. With correct use, you can enjoy a truly unique and satisfying vaping experience with the e cigarette and e liquid. |

POMEROY — While the November election is more than three months away, political signs are springing up across the county — many in illegal places.
The Ohio Department of Transportation has a "Mind your Signs" program in place as a way of keeping them off the highway right-of-ways, and both Middleport and Pomeroy have ordinances that specify where political signs can be placed and where they can't, and give the timing as to when they can go up and when they must come down.
According to Ohio law, highway right-of-ways are to be used exclusively for public highway purposes. Political signs do not met that legal criteria. Only uniform marking guides and warning signs are permitted on the state's highway right-of-way. The Ohio Revised Code says that "no individual, firm or corporation shall place or maintain any post, sign, or obstruction within the bounds of any road or highway without first obtaining the consent and approval of the director."
Now for signs that go up without approval, Brenna Slavens, public information officer for ODOT District 10 advised earlier this year that ODOT highway crews will remove illegally placed signs and take them to the county garage. Owners have a 30-day period in which to retrieve them. After that they are disposed of.
As for both Pomeroy and Middleport, ordinances spell out the when and where of putting up political signs, as well as the time structure after the election for taking them down.
According to Pomeroy Village Council's amendment to Zoning Ordinance 593 which was passed on July 21, 2008, political signs shall be erected not sooner than 30 days prior to the date of the election for which the office is to be filled or the issue decided, and shall not be greater than 12 square feet in sign area, nor located closer than 10 feet to any public right-of-way.
It also states that political signs shall not be erected on village property, including parks, parking lot, amphitheater, village hall nor along East Main Street adjacent to the walking path.
As for removal of signs, the ordinance states that all political signs shall be removed within seven days after the day of election.
Middleport Village Council has no requirement as to the time before an election when political signs can go up in residential areas.
The original ordinance passed by Council in 1965 which included a 30-day time frame before an election for putting up political signs, was eliminated by an amendment in 2006.
The ordinance does require that political advertising signs be not in excess of 12 square feet, and that they must be removed within a 10 day period following the election.
The amended ordinance states that Village Council found it in the best interest of the village to make the amendment.

The source or headwaters of a river or stream is the furthest place in that river or stream from its estuary or confluence with another river, as measured along the course of the river.
Contents |
There is no universally agreed upon definition for determining a stream's source. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) states that a river's "length may be considered to be the distance from the mouth to the most distant headwater source (irrespective of stream name), or from the mouth to the headwaters of the stream commonly identified as the source stream". As an example of the second definition above, the USGS at times considers the Missouri River as a tributary of the Mississippi River. But it also follows the first definition above (along with virtually all other geographic authorities and publications) in using the combined Missouri - lower Mississippi length figure in lists of lengths of rivers around the world.[1]
This most common definition of a river source specifically utilizes the most distant point (along watercourses from the river mouth) in the drainage basin from which water runs year-around (perennially), or, alternatively, as the furthest point from which water could possibly flow (ephemerally).[2] The latter definition includes sometimes-dry channels and removes any possible definitions that would have the river source "move around" from month to month depending on precipitation or ground water levels. This definition, from geographer Andrew Johnston of the Smithsonian Institution, is also used by the National Geographic Society when pinpointing the source of rivers such as the Amazon or Nile. A definition given by the state of Montana agrees, stating that a river source is never a confluence but is "in a location that is the farthest, along water miles, from where that river ends."[3] Under this definition neither a lake (excepting lakes with no inflows) nor a confluence of tributaries can be a true river source, though both often provide the starting point for the portion of a river carrying a single name. For example, National Geographic and virtually every other geographic authority and atlas define the source of the Nile River not as Lake Victoria's outlet where the name "Nile" first appears, which would reduce the Nile's length by over 900 km (dropping it to fourth or fifth on the list of world's rivers), but instead use the source of the largest river flowing into the lake, the Kagera River. Likewise, the source of the Amazon River has been determined this way, even though the river changes names numerous times along its course.[4]
When not listing river lengths, however, alternate definitions may be used. The Missouri River's source is named by some USGS and other federal and state agency sources, following Lewis and Clark's naming convention, as the confluence of the Madison and Jefferson rivers, rather than the source of its longest tributary (the Jefferson).[3] This is contradicted by an US Army Corps of Engineers official on a USGS site[5] who states the most common definition: "Geographers generally follow the longest tributary to identify the source of rivers and streams. In the case of the Missouri River, Lewis and Clark would have had to travel to the east...to reach the source"...He states that the Missouri River source is well upstream from Lewis and Clark's confluence, "following the Jefferson River to the Beaverhead River to Red Rock River, then Red Rock Creek to Hell Roaring Creek."
Sometimes the source of the most remote tributary, may be in an area that is more marsh-like, in which the "uppermost" or most remote section of the marsh would be the true source. For example, the source of the River Tees is marshland.
The furthest stream is also often called the headstream. Headwaters are usually small streams that are often cool waters, because of shade and recently melted ice or snow. They may also be glacial headwaters, waters formed by the melting of glacial ice.
The source is the farthest point of the river stream from its estuary, mouth, or its confluence with another river or stream, regardless of what name that watercourse may carry on local maps and in local usage. Most rivers have numerous tributaries and change names often; it is customary to regard the longest tributary as its source.
Headwaters are the most extreme upstream areas of a watershed, as opposed to the outflow or discharge of a watershed. The river source is often but not always on or quite near the edge of the watershed, or watershed divide. For example, the source of the Colorado River is at the Continental Divide separating the Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean watersheds of North America.
A river is considered a linear geographic feature, with only one mouth and one source. For an example, note how the Mississippi River and Missouri River sources are officially defined:
The verb "rise" can be used to express the general region of a river's source, and is often qualified with an adverbial expression of place. For example:
The word "source", when applied to lakes rather than rivers or streams, refers to the lake's inflow.[6][7]
