text: Conservation Stewardship Program Award Winners Named Harold Wilken, of Danforth, won the CSP farmer of the year award. Eric McTaggart is the district conservationist of the year. Published on: Aug 23, 2012 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Last week, at the Illinois State Fair's Ag Day, the Illinois Stewardship Alliance named its 2012 Conservation Stewardship Program award winners. Harold Wilken, of Danforth, received the Conservation Stewardship Program 2012 Farmer of the Year Award, and Eric McTaggart, of Pontiac, received the Conservation Stewardship Program 2012 District Conservationist of the Year Award. Wilken operates a 1,000 acre organic farm that mainly grows corn, soybeans and wheat. He uses cover crops, stream buffers and other conservation practices to keep his soil healthy and productive. Wilken's use of these practices not only helps him survive extreme weather, like the current drought, better than others, but helps those downstream by preventing excess fertilizer runoff.Conservation Stewardship Program Award Winners Named McTaggart is the National Resources Conservation Service district conservationist for Ford and Livingston counties. In his position, McTaggart works with farmers in Ford and Livingston counties to implement CSP and works tirelessly to promote conservation practices. "The awards are a public recognition of Harold's and Eric's dedication to conservation practices. Their efforts not only protect the welfare of farms in Illinois, but create a healthier environment throughout the state and country," says Lindsay Record, executive director of Illinois Stewardship Alliance. "We hope others use the examples set by Harold and Eric to take advantage of all the Conservation Stewardship Program has to offer." The Conservation Stewardship Program is administered by the United States Department of Agriculture through the National Resources Conservation Service. It offers farmers already using some conservation techniques up to $40,000 a year and technical assistance to implement even more conservation practices on working farms. Illinois Stewardship Alliance is a nonprofit that promotes environmentally sustainable, economically viable, socially just local food systems through policy development, advocacy and education.

Xbox is releasing the promised voice integration with Bing Search and a host of TV and entertainment features. Now with XBox and Kinnect people will be able to search TV content, games, Netflix, the internet and more simply by using voice commands.
For those of you who have been following Microsoft's voice enabled features and products, you know the power these have brought for years to mobile phones, phone systems, Exchange mail integration, the Windows OS and so on. However this is the first use of voice in the home entertainment room which brings together so much functionality.
My personal thought is there will be challenges using this interface with a crowd of people and a lot of background noise. However anything that means I don't have to go looking for the remote, a device which I swear has grown legs, is a welcome addition.
Perhaps what is most interesting about Kinnect and now the voice integration is all of the unintended and much encouraged experimentation that goes on in the hacking community. We have seen everything from robots to video surgery leverage the technology in new ways. Launching the voice integrated search engine in an inexpensive console is a powerful new opportunity for innovation.

NEW YORK–With an eye to bring something to market that would set a standard even in the high-end segment, Classic Rug Collection has debuted a line of pure silk rugs appropriately titled The Luxe Collection.
"This segment of the marketplace is the only part that's really selling right now," Barbara Barran, president and designer of Classic Rug, said of the luxury business. "But still, to survive in that market you have to have something no one else is making."
Barran's solution came literally by way of the ancient Silk Road, where she found the inspiration for the entire Luxe line in a small 330-knot Oriental rug she purchased in Kashgar, China, while traveling for a different project four years ago. She said "after looking at it, and its beautiful colors, for three years," it finally morphed into her next project. The end result is The Luxe Collection, which includes both 300-knot rugs of pure silk and 150-knot rugs of pashmina and silk.
The five pure silk rugs feature tone-on-tone designs, in metallic colors like silver, bronze, gold and platinum. The designs use high-low cut pile to highlight their simple, geometric patterns, which take inspiration from varied sources. Intrigue, for example, was inspired by Moroccan-carved window panels; Turkish takes its cue from an Iznik tile pattern; and Chinoise is based on a large-scale Chinese character. One pattern, Jewel Box, steps away from the tonal treatment with vividly colored "precious stones" in cut silk on a looped platinum-colored field.
The rugs in The Luxe Collection will retail for $250 per square foot for the pure silk pieces and $185 per square foot for the pashmina/silk designs. Barran said the right placement for the Luxe line is "a very high-end retailer who is willing to understand and promote the collection for what it is." She added she is, as always, "willing to travel to promote the line myself."
The rugs are handmade in Nepal by a RugMark-certified factory and available in custom sizes, colors and shapes. For custom designs, the client can even have her initials knotted into a corner of the rug for no additional charge. Delivery times will vary from three to five months, depending on the rug's size.

Lib Technologies Skate Banana Magnetraction Snowboard - 2007
Lib Tech created a new flex pattern with reverse camber for the Skate Banana Magnetraction Snowboard, so it puts edge pressure between your feet (where it should be) instead of at the tip and tail. Snowboards are not skis, so why should they flex the same? This Banana Technology flex pattern, combined with Magnetraction edges, gives the Skate Banana Snowboard a loose, catch-free ride that butters and jibs well. Plus the stiffened tip and tail provide tons of pop. Lib Tech's reverse camber base also gives this ride excellent float in powdery conditions. *Graphics vary, so keep your fingers crossed.
Bottom Line: Get a snowboard that rides like a snowboard instead of a skithe Lib Skate Banana Magnetraction Snowboard.

Shares hit as Blackburn firm Promethean predicts operating loss
5:09pm Sunday 1st July 2012 in News
SHARES in East Lancashire firm Promethean plunged almost 40 per cent after it announced it expects to post an operating loss for the first half of its financial year.
The Blackburn-based supplier of education technology said the seasonal trend in the US of high levels of order activity at the end of June failed to materialise at the levels anticipated.
Revenues for the first half of the year were now expected to be in the range of £80m to £85m and, with gross margins lower than last year, it is anticipated that the group will post a high single digit operating loss for the first half of the year.
In April Promethean stated that it expected market conditions to remain challenging, particularly in the US and Europe, and 2012 revenues to be weighted more heavily to the second half of the year than in 2011.
In a trading update, it said the key buying season from June to September in the US would better and that it remained cautious in its outlook.
Now in a statement the company said: "The third quarter remains a key trading period. However, Promethean considers that market conditions will remain very challenging, and the Board now believes that the results for the year will be significantly below previous expectations. Promethean will therefore continue to align its cost base to these tougher market conditions and this will lead to an exceptional charge in 2012."
The firm, led by chief executive Jean-Yves Charlier, supplies interactive whiteboards and learning software to schools. The US is its largest market, accounting for more than 60 per cent of sales.
The share price fell 39.57 per cent to 21p last Friday.
5:57pm Sun 1 Jul 12
Kevin, Colne
8:12pm Sun 1 Jul 12
In March 2010 the company was brought to the market as an Initial Public Offering – IPO - by Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Cazenove and Gleacher Shackloc at £2 a share, when conditions were favourable to the sellers.
Now some two years later the shares are about to join the 90% Club (a stock that has lost 90% of its market value).
Throughout this period all but one of the broker analysts covering this stock had given a rating of 'Buy', 'Overweight' or 'Hold'. The one analyst to take a contrarian view gave a recommendation of 'Reduce'. As of today one of the analysts has changed their rating of the stock to a 'Sell'. In other words: we've now closed the stable door after the horse has bolted, and we'll be putting on a new bolt and varnishing the woodwork for good measure.
At the current level the share might be a Buy or it might be a Sell, who knows? But anyone that followed recommendations to buy at £2 and is now minded to follow a recommendation to sell at 22p is probably feeling a bit sore right now.
I dare bet that a fair few of these bullish recommendations by brokers have been regurgitated by the mainstream media without any further independent thought or analysis, or any mention of the fact that the broker recommending the stock may have been one of the brokers that brought the company to market.
I wish the company well but the situation in the USA is hardly likely to be improving any-day soon.
The issuing by the Company of a trading statement a mere three weeks prior to the posting of final results gives a clue to the gravity of the situation, and reading the latest statement – 'Promethean will therefore continue to align its cost base to these tougher market conditions and this will lead to an exceptional charge in 2012' - suggests that more job losses are on the cards; and that is the sort of news that we can well do without.

We are now six months from Christmas. While that still gives shoppers plenty of time to make up their minds on what they want to buy, retail executives have to start making up their minds now about what they want to sell.
Stacey Widlitz is the President of SW Retail Advisors. She says "the theme of last year was who promoted most aggressively and early, won. Who will be this year's early movers? Those are the stocks you want to own."
Her first bit of advice to retail investors: steer clear of Abercrombie and Fitch because she doesn't think they're willing to play the promotion game. Her top pick for the holiday season is The Limited saying "they're expanding operations and opening a store in London and they've been very consistent over the last few years."
Widlitz also believes JC Penney is a real wildcard this year in the retail sector. She says investors need to watch closely to see how aggressive the company gets on early markdowns. This is CEO Ron Johnson's first full run-up to the Christmas season after being named to the position late last year. Previously he was part of the brain machine behind Apple's successful retail strategy.

-------- e-Tags are for WUSSIES!! http://www.outa.co.za/ Support OUTA.... Don't support corruption, don't get an e-tag! -------
Ref number: 1159069
Also please tell me how I can start the process of getting temporary internet while you fix your own network, I am on a contract and can't use the internet for a month now.
Well done 8ta, 97% of ZA have just beaten your internet speed.
My 8ta experience had greatly improved but it seems I'm again having some issues. Before 7pm in the evening things are happy (get about 1.5 mbps) but it deterioates greatly after that. If I try after that time my connection is practically unuseable, lots of time outs and download speed of less than a kilobyte per second (which of course then times out). All this time it remains on HSDPA or 3G+ or whatever you call it (bright brue light on the 3G stick, not the dull blue or green)
I test in the morning and the connection is perfect, say 5 to 7 mbps! So it's definitely not my coverage.
Is this related to the tower loads mentioned earlier (fix was meant to be in on 18th but my issues only started after that).
I connect to the Sandton Police Station tower (from what the last technician told me).
Now my issue is no longer occuring just late evening:
Test Date: Jul 25, 2012 5:25 PM
Connection Type: Wifi
Server: Rosebank
Download: 0.09 Mbps
Upload: 0.05 Mbps
Ping: 604 ms
External IP: 184.108.40.206
Internal IP: 192.168.1.101
75% loss when pinging mybroadband. The request which did come through had a latency of 935ms
Looks like the only guy doing his job at 8ta is now also not visiting these forums any more.
Just great to have to pay for this isn't it?
Hi Chris115!
Apologies for the delay in response. We have been on training and unable to reply as often as we could.
Your tower is due for an upgrade and the upgrade should be fully implemented within a month. We have also provided you a month's credit for the inconvenience which will come off your next month's invoice.
Social Media Team
Hi Carnajo!
Do you have a previous reference number? If so, please provide it to us. If not, please complete the OP template and we can take it further?
If your problems were not resolved by the fix of the 18th, you will need to provide us with more information.

Has the network issue in Rosebank been resolved yet? My reference numbers 1110817 and 1156757 refers. This is also the same as Rob's issue quoted below.
This issue has, for me been going on for 6 months now, and I have raised it on several occasions. My current bundle will expire in less than a week and I want to know should I renew it or rather get a Vodacom bundle.
I would prefer to use 8ta, but if it is unstable then I will have to go for the more expensive Vodacom one.

If the people would stop complaining all day and start doing something, we would get a lot more done in this country of ours.
Hi Wolfling
On Wednesday 1/07/2012 - you were contacted and you advised that the technician could attend on Monday and have agreed to call in and rereport your issue when you returned. This was not done. We have reopened this for you and continue with the investigation.
As for Rob - he has informed us that his issue has been resolved.

I think you should get your facts straight. On 01/07/2012 I spent 30 mins with the technician. I demonstrated my problem to him. He then went away to set up some network traces and would contact me back. Then a few days later I called and enquired, to find out that the case had been closed. See my post to this forum on 03/07/2012, quoted below.
Since then I have had another technician on site. This is a different one than on the 1st, but this one has been here 4 times now. He said that he already have all the detail we need and will report and escalate my case to the managers and they will contact me again.
Then on 10/07/2012 I get a call, to once again SEND OUT A TECHIE TO COME AND MEASURE SOMETHING. The guy has been here 5 times already. He says himself that he cannot measure anything more! However this time I was on leave, so I asked them to wait until the 16th when I will be back. Once again silence.
Now, after I complained here, I get another call, to guess what... SEND OUT A TECHIE!!!
Please I understand that you need to measure to find the problem, but if you have done so 5 times already, to the point that the techie actually admits that he cannot measure anything more, then please start resolving the problem or admit that you don't know what is going on.
Judging by the way things are going, the techie is going to pitch on Monday. He is again going to measure 'something' and leave. On Tuesday my bundle will expire and Wednesday I will get a new one from Vodacom.

Hi 8Ta team...I was informed that there is nothing they can do and they cannot see that there is a problem. I have today, had almost no internet access at all. It goes up for 1 min then down for about 10. My new case number is 1599235. So how can you say that it has been resolved. I can tell you that I never said that.
Personally, I am not happy. I have 2 sim cards and I can tell you that I will not be staying with 8Ta when they are finished.

Our pictures turned out awesome! Thanks so much guys, you were an absolute pleasure to work with and your work speaks for itself! I'm delighted with how the pictures turned out, and can't thank you enough for the amazing job you have done. For all your guidance, patience and for being so accommodating of our needs, we thank you. I am especially grateful for how much stress you took off me on the day. You really took the time to understand our vision of what we wanted and the attention to detail that was put in has really produced an album that is above our expectations. If you're looking for a photographer, I would highly recommend you consider Ferndara, you will never see a group of guys so hard working and dedicated to getting the job done. Our wedding was drenched with rain and these guys worked in the soaking wet relentlessly committed to getting that perfect shot, whilst still ensuring we were able to enjoy our wedding day. Thanks Rukshan and team for your dedication, I will definitely hire you guys again when Leo and I have the babies! With thanks, Susan & Leo

Billions of dollars invested, not a penny lost.
The Ontario Court of Appeal has set out guidelines for determining whether a proposed class action should be certified because it is "preferable" to alternative procedures for resolving the class members' claims.
On Jan. 27, Chief Justice Warren Winkler (backed by Justices Gloria Epstein and Gladys Pardu, sitting ad hoc) upheld the Divisional Court's decision last year to certify a multimillion-dollar class action launched by investors against CI Mutual Funds Inc. and AIC Ltd.
The plaintiffs claim they lostmoney when the defendantsallegedly permitted some short-term investors to engage in prof-itable "market timing" of theirpurchases and sales in certainmutual funds under the com-panies' management.
In unsuccessfully appealing thecertification, the defendants urgedthat a class action was not thepreferable procedure because theinvestors are already entitled to becompensated by a $205-millionsettlement agreement between thedefendants, three other mutualfund companies, and the OntarioSecurities Commission (OSC).
The representative plaintiffs argued, however, that the OSC's

Vol. 22, No. 27 NEWS FOR THE LEGAL PROFESSION December 6, 2002
The Ontario Court of Appeal has admonished trial judges not to hand out anonymity orders, sealing orders, publication bans or other privacy orders in divorce cases, unless after "close scrutiny" they determine there exists "a serious risk to the proper administration of justice."
In a powerful expression of the open court principle in family law, on Jan. 24 Justices David Doherty, Robert Armstrong, and Alexandra Hoy set aside a sweeping sealing order and publication ban granted last year to M.E.H., the estranged wife of serial killer Russell Williams. The orders shielded the identity of the wife and her employer, and her divorce proceedings, from media reporting and public scrutiny. (At press time her identity, while previously widely published, was still subject to 14-day post-judgment publication ban.)
"The evidence cannot support [the lower court's] conclusion that the orders were necessary to prevent a serious risk to the proper administration of justice."

"The evidence cannot support [the lower court's] conclusion that the orders were necessary to prevent a serious risk to the proper administration of justice," Justice Doherty held. "Absent that finding, the orders could not have been made under the controlling jurisprudence."

The Ontario Court of Appeal's recent judgment on sealing orders and publication bans is 'a huge endorsement of the open court principle,' says media lawyer Richard Deaden, seen here at the Ottawa Courthouse.
Family Law, Philip Epstein of Toronto's Epstein Cole, suggested that the Court of Appeal's judgment will rein in the growing practice of judges granting anonymity orders on consent in family law cases in Ontario.
Digital offerings from legal publishers still in early stages
Justice Doherty elaborated on the rigorous analytical approach judges should follow when applying the Supreme Court's Dagenais/Mentuck test to determine whether non-publication, sealing, or other privacy orders should be granted in any case.
Media lawyer Richard Deardenof Ottawa's Gowling LafleurHenderson, who argued theappeal for the Ottawa Citizenand the CBC, called the judg-ment "a huge endorsement ofthe open court principle."down you need convincing evi-dence that the proper administra-tion of justice would be severelyaffected, and you've got to prove iton a convincing evidentiary foun-dation," Dearden said.

"In my opinion theEpstein added that this is notnecessarily a good development,in his view.

By Matt Tomsic
Published Aug. 15, 2012
A federal judge has allowed the Savannah River Maritime Commission and Georgia Ports Authority to intervene in a lawsuit challenging the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project.
Judge Richard Gergel issued the order Tuesday.
In February, the Southern Environmental Law Center filed the lawsuit, saying the Army Corps of Engineers didn't get a pollution control permit from the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control for the harbor expansion project, or SHEP, according to a lawsuit.
The maritime commission asked to intervene as a plaintiff in July, arguing the lawsuit filed is related to a decision it made in May, when the commission amended a state permit to allow the Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District to dredge to 45 feet instead of its recommended 47 feet in the Savannah River deepening project.
In late July, the Georgia Ports Authority asked to intervene in the lawsuit as a defendant, arguing it has separate interests in the case from the Army Corps of Engineers.
The Southern Environmental Law Center filed the lawsuit on behalf of the Savannah Riverkeeper, the Coastal Conservation League and the S.C. Wildlife Federation.
The $650 million Savannah Harbor Expansion Project is being done in anticipation of the expansion of the Panama Canal, which port officials say will open the East Coast to larger post-Panamax ships.

Sign up and join a community that's passionate about exploring the world of entertainment & technology.
Although many manufacturers claim their products are revolutionary, the truth is that most audio/video components are fairly generic. DVD players, surround receivers, and even speakers tend to be interchangeable parts of your system. It's rare - very rare - that a truly unique product comes along, one that radically departs from the norm.
The soundtrack from the DVD of last year's King Arthur offers up barbarous sonic attacks and thrilling surround effects. The latest speaker release from Paradigm, the Cinema 110 Compact Theater, delivers some pretty exciting surround effects as well. But could this value-priced system produce truly civilized sound from King Arthur's medieval mayhem?
Santa squeezed an awful lot of flat-panel TVs down an awful lot of chimneys last year. (He bends the space-time continuum, that's how.) And as those lucky households recover from holiday bills, thoughts are turning to sleek on-wall speaker systems to finish the job.
While the satellite speakers in Mirage's Nanosat system aren't actually made with cutting-edge nanotechnology, they are extremely small by any ordinary standard - less than 6 inches high and just over 4 inches wide and deep.
Until some enterprising soul invents a software-defined virtual speaker, designers of real speakers will keep trying to make them less obtrusive. That's certainly the idea behind Boston Acoustics' P400, star of the company's Plasma Series.
Not long ago, someone figured out it was possible to get good sound from small, inexpensively made speakers - and ever since, the home theater scene has been dominated by compact six-piece rigs that sell for a thousand bucks or less.
A few minutes into Cold Mountain, a U.S. Civil War version of The Odyssey , the Union Army detonates massive explosives hidden beneath a Confederate encampment. To say that I flinched would be an understatement - diving for cover was more like it.
Normally, speakers don't jazz me out of the box - I gotta hear them first. But Canton 's CD 300 speaker system, which combines technology from the company's high-end Karat series with the sleek design of its smaller CD 100 model, primed the adrenaline pump even before I connected the speakers to my receiver.
No, these aren't HTiB systems - home theaters in a box. You'll need to add more than just a TV to them before you can kick back and enjoy a movie theaterlike experience at home.
The day has finally arrived when you can legitimately call yourself a Home Theater Enthusiast. You've got your HDTV, and you've upgraded from a nice enough home-theater-in-a-box system to a decent set of surround speakers.
Most people will think twice before plunking down $500 to $1,000 on one of our ten subs for their home theaters. But if you love your bass and money's no object, there are subs out there for you, too - monster subs like Genelec's HTS6 ($7,750) and Velodyne's Digital Drive 1812 Signature Edition ($15,000) that are in a (whacky) class all by themselves.
Looking for a good test DVD for Definitive Technology's BP7002 system, I settled on the swashbuckling Master and Commander. The commander, Jack Aubrey, portrayed by Russell Crowe, set sail in 1805 in this adaptation of Patrick O'Brian's historically accurate novel, but the special effects and sound quality are definitely 21st century.

Cops following leads in Hyde Park homicide
HYDE PARK, N.Y. — Police attempting to identify and arrest the person who killed a Hyde Park woman are following up on a number of leads, authorities said Tuesday.
Laurie Ferguson, 67, was found dead Thanksgiving night in the bedroom of her mobile home at Mobile Manor Trailer Park, 1824 state Route 9G. She had suffered multiple stab wounds, police said.
As of Tuesday afternoon, no arrest had been made, and no weapon had been recovered.
State police still were not releasing details about what kind of weapon had been used or where on her body she had been stabbed.
Sgt. Darren Forbes of state police at Rhinebeck, the lead agency in the investigation, said Ferguson's estranged husband, who lives in the South, has been interviewed.
"We're not looking at him right now as a prime suspect," Forbes said.
Other family members have also been interviewed, he said, and Forbes described them as cooperative.
"They want to have closure with this case. I think they're as intent in catching the killer as we are," he said.
Forbes said it is possible Ferguson knew her attacker.
"We're specifically looking at that aspect … but we're always open to other information that comes in," he said. Continued...
Police have not yet determined if there was more than one person involved in Ferguson's attack, Forbes added.
In recent days, police circulated a composite sketch of a man, described as a "person of interest," who was seen in the area of Reservoir Road, where Ferguson's 2006 Saturn Ion was found, and Forbes said investigators have gotten numerous leads about the person in the drawing.
The "person of interest" is described as being possibly Hispanic, medium build, a little taller than 5-foot, 10-inches, well dressed with a full head of dark hair and a bushy, neatly trimmed full beard, police said.
"The (person in the) composite isn't necessarily the one who committed the crime, but is just the person who was seen in that area, and we've been talking to several people," Forbes said.
Troopers continue to seek data captured last Wednesday through Friday on surveillance cameras that face roadways in the areas of Mobile Manor Trailer Park, U.S. Route 9 and state Route 9G between South Cross Road and North Cross Road; South Cross Road; North Cross Road; and Reservoir Road.
"We're asking for anyone with surveillance cameras that may cover those roadways to share that footage with us," Forbes said.
As far as recovery of the weapon, police dive teams searched two ponds in the mobile home park and other bodies of water, particularly those in the location where Ferguson's car was found late Friday, Forbes said.

Interesting…not for the faint of heart (perhaps for the faint of smell, though) Luckily I'm accustomed to the smell of edible seaweed, but it isn't my favorite aroma. The taste of this tea is fine, not over-powered by the seaweed. I like the idea that it might have some good antioxidant properties (how much? I don't know, really, but I'm all up for placebo effect too). Loving the cloth teabag!
Green Tea with Seaweed
Green tea from China, natural essences of mint, Nanah mint leaves and seaweeds (Nori, Dulse and Sea Lettuce)
Tasting advice: delicious plain or sweetened.
The virtues of green tea and mint with the benefits of seaweeds (minerals, vitamins, draining properties) make this refreshing tonic the ideal aid for slimming diets.
Origin: China and Brittany
Main Flavor: Oceanic with a fresh note
Quantity Needed: 0,1 oz.PREPARATION
Time of Day: all day
Ideal Water Temperature: 85°C
Recommended Brewing Time: 3-4 min

Where To Watch The Show PLEASE No Coolers, NO PETS, NO PERSONAL FIREWORKS For several years the Resort has provided a place that families can go to enjoy the fireworks show. The 4th of July has become Mt Shasta Resort's Community Appreciation Day and all the money raised from the $2 entrance fee goes directly to the fireworks show. Food and beverages are available. Reynolds Resort - Lake Siskiyou Sitting on the beach at Lake Siskiyou Campgrounds is without a doubt the best location for seeing the show. The crew at Reynolds Resort do a great job in providing a family environment. It's best to come early and have a picnic, then head to the beach for a perfect view. Space is a little limited but it's well worth your time if you love watching fireworks over the lake. Remember to take your time leaving because the pyrotechnic crew always finds a few extra shells to fire after the show. Notice to Boaters Due to the caliber of shells being used during the show you must keep at least 1500 feet away from the firing site. We will be enforcing this restriction by not starting the show or by stopping the show if this safety zone is breached. Please use this map as a reference for safe area's to have your boat. |

works finePros: I have used many adaptec RAID controllers over the years, and this one is just as reliable. Cons: For the machines I have used, Dell Vostro, at the BIOS screen there was no prompt to get into the adapter bios, but if you hit CTRL-A anyway, it works... Other Thoughts: installed on dell vostro 230 minitower, raid 1 and works great Did you find this review helpful? |
not linux friendlyPros: Cheap card - useful for Windows OS, or specific Redhat & Suse distributions. Cons: ONLY use for supported OS'. Not a true RAID controller. This is a HostRAID controller. Don't buy this card if you're looking for a real hardware based RAID setup. Other Thoughts: I tried compiling the driver for 'other' distributions, using the supplied instructions. Beyond the fact that it's a PITA, it just didn't work. When will hardware vendors recognize that Redhat and Suse are NOT the only Linux distributions in the wild. Very frustrating... 4 out of 5 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Difficult SetupPros: Fast transfer rates at a reasonable price point. Can set up Raid 1 with existing hard drive with Operating sytem loaded. Cons: Difficult setup. (see below). Documentation is subpar. This was my first Raid setup attempt and it was extremely frustrating, mainly because of the lack of specific instructions for the installation I was trying to perform. Other Thoughts: I bought this card to mirror my existing hard drive. Of course I wanted to maintain data on existing hard drive as well as the operating system. It can be done with this Adaptec card. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not for Solid State Drives (SSDs)Pros: Worked just fine with the mechanicals I tried it with. Therefore it got 3 eggs. Read on. Cons: Tried to use this controller with 2 OCZ, 30 G SSDs in a RAID 0 on a GA-EP45C-DS3R motherboard. Result: board hung, would not boot. Adaptec does not test this controller with SSDs. Neither Adaptec nor OCZ has an answer. Others indicate the same problem. Be warned. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Yes, they will arrayPros: RAID 0 with 2 of these on a Gigabyte GA-EP45C-DS3R with an Intel ICH10R Southbridge works just fine. No reason to think other boards with the same chipset and/or other RAID setups would not. Cons: Originally tried an Adaptec 1220 PCIE controller (cheap!) with these. Result: motherboard hangs and would not boot! Controller worked with mechanicals. Adaptec has no answer and does not test SSDs with this controller. OCZ has no answer either. I found others with the same problem. Be warned. Other Thoughts: Wasn't too long ago that mechanicals with this capacity were this price. Goodbye Seagate!!! 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not bad at allPros: Works in my configuration, proper connectors placement(rare), fast, not that big really-sits next to GPU and do not even obstract the GPU fan airflow. Cons: Had to pay for it ? Other Thoughts: As i was installing XP MCE i tried to set up a system on RAID 1 on SB for better performance, but intel RAID option won't even show in BIOS unless you switch off the JMicron controller. Since it was to be a HT PC i needed that other controller for large HD for media content storage. At that moment i took 1220 out of box. It was a perfect match. No more hassles with BIOS, both on board controlers in non RAID configuration working w/no problem. Instal went blazing fast in comparison with SB raid (which i did prev). System performance is so much up that I stopped thinking about shelling few hundreds for T 7600. Runing 1T HD on SATA II controler, and switching my optical storage from on board PATA to SATA (i am getting HD/DVD drive). Using system for video capture/ editing and it works great. Will recommend it for anyone who didn't throw his/hers Asus N4L-VM DH out yet and is still wrestling with it. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Fragile RAID 0 ArrayPros: Set up a 1TB Raid 0 array for video capture. Very fast, no more dropped frames when capturing HD. Cons: After about a year, array failed. Fine in the Morning, volume gone in the evening. Adaptec Storage Manager program showed both drives failed. Booting to card bios, found actually only one drive "failed", although scan showed no problem. Tried second card, drive still "failed". Will only use RAID 1 from now on. Other Thoughts: The poor Windows based Adaptec Storage Manager program showing both drives failed led me to waste time troubleshooting power supply cables and card problems, since I considered hoghly unlikely that two drives failed simultaneoulsy for no good reason. Only got the real story from the bios manager. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Ugh.Pros: Software and support are a bit better than other SI3132 based PCIe SATA RAID cards. Open source Linux driver. Real phone support -- so call, don't try to e-mail. SATA connectors are on the back of the card for logical cable routing. Cons: DOA. Card is big. Online support was a nightmare. Great success calling support for an RMA, but be prepared to wait (20+ minutes, twice, a speaker-phone is essential) Other Thoughts: This is a SI 3132 based card, just like the generic cheapies. The BIOS, software, and support are somewhat better. The "Adaptec" was supposed to replace a much cheaper DOA generic controller card -- I was upset to see exactly the same chipset on a bigger board. I've never had a DOA part -- two SI 3132 controllers have been DOA...coincidence? 3 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
not goodPros: cheap Cons: stopped loading ACU after 2nd or 3rd boot up..(would complain about low system memory, and then would freeze if you tried to continue (2gb of mem is NOT low mem) Other Thoughts: and Adaptec used to be a quality company. 1 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great CardPros: Like the previous owner, installed it on a Dell PowerEdge SC440 server with 3 SATA2 500GB in RAID0. Fast, no compatibility issue with Win2003 x64 Server. Cons: Could have reduce the size of the controller card since it has very few chips on it. Other Thoughts: Not sure what happened to the first guy below (who gave a 1star), did not experience any problems in the box, nor any issue with the card. 4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
"Like the previous owner, installed it on a Dell PowerEdge SC440 server with 3 SATA2 500GB in RAID0. Fast, no compatibility ..."— SAP Pro 2/28/2008

text: (Newser) – Now that President Obama has been re-elected, he might have a little more time for another big project: Writing a book with Holocaust survivor and Nobel peace prize laureate Elie Wiesel. Wiesel, who wrote about his time in Auschwitz in his memoir Night, says they are writing "a book of two friends," the Guardian reports, citing Haaretz. Obama first saw Wiesel, 84, when the author lectured at his college; they became friends in 2009 while visiting Buchenwald together and now occasionally have dinner together. Wiesel has written more than 50 books.

text: Piglets substitute for human babies in cognitive science maze test Science 26 July 12 by Olivia Solon Tweet Shutterstock A team from the Beckman Institute at the University of Illinois is using piglets instead of human babies to try and model the cognitive development of infants. Human infants cannot be used as laboratory subjects. The idea to use piglets came when one of neuroscientist Rodney Johnson's former students, who was working for an infant formula company, asked him about finding ways to monitor the differences in cognitive development between breast-fed and formula-fed children. As a result he and his colleague Ryan Dilger became interested in using the neonatal piglet as a model for human brain development. The growth and development of the piglet brain is similar to that of the human brain -- at birth the human brain is 25 percent of adult size. In the first two years of life, it reaches 85 to 90 percent of adult size. The piglet brain grows in a similar way in a shorter time.They wanted to see whether they could develop tests to look at learning and memory development using these pigs. First of all they developed MRI techniques to quantify the size of the brain, taking measurements at regular intervals.They then developed a test using a maze to assess piglets' learning and memory. This turned out to be much more complicated than expected. Johnson said: "When we first started these studies, we used things like Skittles and apple slices as a reward because that's what people using older pigs had done."However, the piglets were used to being fed on infant formula and so had no interest in solid food, nor were they motivated to perform tasks if the reward was the same as their regular food. The solution was to use Nesquik chocolate milk as a reward.Tests took place in a plus-sign-shaped maze with one arm blocked off to leave a T shape. Piglets were trained to locate the milk reward using visual cues from outside the maze. When they learned how to do this and the reward location was moved, and the pigs were retested to assess learning and working memory. Having established that the tests can be used to measure cognitive abilities, the team will examine how nutrient deficiencies (such as iron) and infections (such as pneumonia) affect the human brain during this time of early brain growth.Johnson said: "There is a lot of interest in the concept of programming, the notion that things that occur early in life set that individual up for problems that occur many years later. Because the pig brain grows so much like a human brain, we thought this could be a very attractive model."In order to measure changes in the brain they look at neuroinflammation, neuron growth and changes, as well as biochemical in the brain.The team hopes to receive funding to look at maternal viral infections, where pregnant pigs will be infected with diseases to see how it affects the brain development of their offspring. The most recent research has been published online in Developmental Neuroscience.Image: Shutterstock Comments Read more on Animals If it moos, squarks, quacks, barks, or snuffles, find it here News Play laser games with your cat from afar with Petcube News Mammoth resurrection ethics 'questionable', says archaeologist News Decline of super-cute Arctic fox may be linked to increased mercury levels Culture Animal magic: Alexis Turner is trying to rehabilitate the art of stuffing dead animals Science Gallery: killer parrots, the pigbutt worm and other extraordinary animals News Automated system monitors and controls aggressive behaviour in pigs Latest on wired.co.uk

Entwistle isn't the only BBC employee who doesn't read the papers
The two most staggering things about his interview with John Humphrys were that he hadn't seen the Newsnight episode in question, and hadn't read the Guardian front page story about the incident.
It's shocking that the former Director-General should have been so uninterested in the news. But, in an organisation packed with middle managers, it's not at all odd to meet other BBC employees who think reading the papers is a little infra dig.
In a world dominated by managementese – Birtspeak, as Private Eye dubs it after John Birt, former Director General – the business of news gathering and broadcasting takes second place to the David Brent School of Management.
The organisation has become so bloated and distorted that its most crucial duties were overlooked. At a time when Newsnight was dominating the national news agenda, the Director-General should have asked every morning what was on that evening's programme. The excuse being rolled out by his defenders – that the BBC produces too much content for the Director-General to see everything – doesn't wash.
One of the old idioms about business is that you should be wary of the company that builds itself a spanking new headquarters. The BBC has just dusted off its billion pound refurbishment of Broadcasting House – a gleaming colossus that dwarfs the old building. All the gazillions in the world aren't worth a penny if you employ journalists who aren't very interested in the news.

WILKES-BARRE - Smoke from a set of grills sent the smell of hamburgers, hot dogs and barbecued chicken through the ramada in Kirby Park, where people were playing a classic game with one notable rule change.
"Is everyone having a good time? Are you enjoying yourselves? Are you playing unity bingo?" asked Ron Felton, president of the local chapter of the NAACP at the annual Diversity/People's Picnic on Saturday.
Unity bingo is much like the fairground staple, with one extra rule. To win, you must shout "unity bingo!" instead of simply "bingo," one picnic-goer explained.
Besides bingo, kids with face-paint were running around and skipping rocks, people were relaxing and eating the hard work of the grillmasters and local organizations were advertising their message and signing up people to vote.
Matt Cartwright, Democratic candidate in the 17th Congressional District, was shaking hands and chatting up people he hopes will be future constituents.
Earlier in the day, Cartwright had been at the Tobyhanna Army Depot, which was celebrating 100 years as an Army installation. He said he cut that trip short so he could make it down to Wilkes-Barre for the picnic.
"That's how important racial and ethnic diversity is to me," he said.
When asked what diversity issues were important now, Cartwright said he was in favor of the DREAM Act, a proposal not passed by Congress that was in the news recently after President Barack Obama signed an executive order that temporarily stops deporting some young undocumented immigrants who meet certain criteria.
Felton said there's nothing particularly new about this year's picnic, except for some new people possibly stopping by or a few more nonprofit organizations attending. It's just one day out of the year when his organization treats people, he said.

Pollster: Romney Surges Despite More GOP Ohioans Agreeing With Santorum
Suffolk University has a new poll out of Ohio that reminds us that in politics as in life, timing is everything; Rick Santorum would have been much better off if Super Tuesday had been two weeks ago.
The poll which was in the field through Sunday shows Santorum with a four percentage lead over Mitt Romney, 37 percent to 33 percent. That result is in the +/- 4.4 percent margin of error which means the race is a statistical tie which is the same result other polls of Ohio voters have gotten.
Here's an indication from the pollsters of how much the tables have completely turned on Santorum in just a few weeks:
"Santorum led 44 percent to Romney's 27 percent among those who already have cast ballots, but among those who have yet to vote, Santorum's margin was only 3 points, 36 percent to 33 percent."
So Santorum went from a commanding lead to a tie all in a few weeks with likely GOP voters in Ohio.
But here's the thing. He still holds a commanding lead in terms of being ideological connectedness with the state's Republican voters the poll indicates. Another excerpt from the pollsters' news release:
"Thirty-three percent of likely voters said that Santorum hews closer to their political beliefs than the other three GOP candidates. Gingrich was seen as having similar beliefs to their own by 22 percent; Romney by 19 percent; and Ron Paul by 10 percent."
So significantly more Ohio Republicans believe Santorum shares their views than Romney does and yet the race is a tie? What's going on? It appears it's all about electability. Romney crushes Santorum on that dimension.
"... Romney was seen as the candidate who has the best chance of defeating President Barack Obama by 44 percent of respondents, while 18 percent chose Santorum; 15 percent, Gingrich; and 2 percent, Ron Paul."
