Introducing the Everest 2 Controller
Introducing the Everest 2 Controller
At its heart the Everest 2 controller is a 400Mhz dual core ARM based, multi-channel SATA 3 / 2 controller which features some very interesting technology, some of which bears more than a passing resemblance to SandForces key features. For example, SandForce has something called DuraWrite while the Everest 2 has NDurance 2.0. In its most basic form, NDurance 2.0 is an advanced NAND flash management suite designed to radically extend the life of the NAND cells and your data. NDurance first made an appearance in the Everest 1 controller but has had its abilities refined and upgraded in the new second generation Everest controller.
This life extension takes the form of various different techniques, the first of which is extremely advanced multi-level, BCH Error Correction Code. Much like the SandForce SF2281 controller makes use of 55 bits of ECC per 512 bytes of data, the Everest 2 has 128bits worth of ECC per 1 Kilobyte of data. The controllers progressive error correction capabilities are not fixed and can be adapted to the specific error characteristics of different NAND used in different runs, batches and even types. The end result is that the chances of your data being corrupted on any Everest 2 controller based drive regardless of NAND type used - are greatly reduced as the ECC routines will be finely tuned to maximize data retention abilities of the NAND it is paired with.
Advanced ECC is only one part of NDurance 2.0 equation and this controller also boasts Adaptive NAND Management and Signal Processing. ANM&SP means that it can apply both proprietary and vendor specific commands such as internal voltage shifting as well as sophisticated signal processing techniques during read, write and erase cycles. These cutting edge commands and techniques extend the life of the NAND cells by being more gentle on them (ie use less voltage) while creating less disturbance of adjacent cells during highly stressful processes. As a result, NDurance 2.0 minimizes the physical deterioration of the NAND and helps maximize the potential lifespan of all the NANDs cells.
The last feature of NDurance 2.0 is an optional feature not enabled on the Vertex 4 called RNA. RNA is much like the SandForce SF2281s RAISE (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements) since it is a distributed data safeguarding technique very similar to those found in a RAID array. Much like your typical RAID array, the Everest 2 controller can automatically generate parity data for each block and then stripe this data across multiple NAND blocks. If one block suffers a catastrophic failure - above and beyond what the ECC can handle - the controller can still recover the data via this second layer of protection.
Also like SandForce SF2281 controller, the Everest 2 controller makes use of auto-encryption with 256bit AES support. It is unknown if this encryption is an optional feature or even if it is enabled on the Vertex 4 as this is an enterprise-centric item not required for the average home user or enthusiast.
While some features bear a striking resemblance to those included in SandForce controllers, the Everest 2 isnt a copycat since it does some very basic things in radically different ways. The biggest difference is the fact that this controller doesnt do any compression on the data before writing to the NAND. While OCZ states emphatically that the Everest 2 has greatly reduced write amplification they dont explain exactly what the write amplification is beyond being low. In all likelihood it is higher than SandForces .6x, but OCZ is so sure of this controllers abilities that - unlike the Vertex 3s three year warranty- the Vertex 4 will come with a five year standard warranty.
By not first compressing the data, the Everest 2 boasts equally good performance for both compressible and incompressible data types. This is a major boon to consumers used to SandForce drives which incur a rather large performance penalty when dealing with already compressed data such as MP3s or video. This directly impacts performance and in the case of the Everest 2 helps it attain an unheard of maximum rating of 120,000 IOP/s.
The other benefit to not compressing all data is there is no need for the massive over-provisioning which SandForce drives require. In the case of the Vertex 4 512GB model, this is 32GB of extra space you will have compared to a 480GB Vertex 3 drive. Of course, with zero over-provisioning, if enough NAND blocks die your drive will be in serious trouble as there will no free blocks to seamlessly take their place.
In addition to the aforementioned items the Everest 2 has another trick up its sleeve: its TLC NAND abilities. Triple Level Cell NAND is an interesting new technology which promises to make multi-Terabyte solid state drives not only a possibility but economically viable. TLC NAND is unproven and does come with a unique set of disadvantages but its inclusion does prove that the Everest 2 has been designed to work with as large and varied an array of NAND types as possible.
When taken as a whole the Everest 2 seems to be a capable high performance controller thats more adaptable than any of its direct or indirect Indilinx predecessors.

About Hana Sushi Fusion
A single cucumber roll. That's how Hana Sushi Fusion executive chef and owner Di Wang started his career in sushi nearly two decades ago. At the time, Di had only been in the United States for a year, but he soon found himself fully engrossed in sushi and its culture. While living on the West Coast, Di surrounded himself with some of the industry's best chefs, mimicking their techniques, expanding on their presentation, and carefully observing their steadiness of hand during late-night games of Operation.
A coast-to-coast move landed Di in the Low Country, where he finally decided to plunge into restaurant ownership and opened the doors to Hana Sushi Fusion. There, Di and his staff put a modern twist on traditional rolls, sashimi, and sushi, pairing them with a varied selection of wine, sake, and imported beers. The restaurant itself emits contemporary vibes, complete with the intimacy of semiprivate dining rooms.

Who is Here?
In 2014, the Company of Heaven began to reveal far deeper and fuller details about who is here than we'd heard before. For instance, they shared that many lightworkers are incarnated angels. Said the Angels through Tazjima:
"Would it surprise you to know that many of you now embodied are angels? You have chosen to take the human path of incarnation rather than to remain in the Light Worlds." (1)
The Pleiadians through Bella Capozzi agree.
"You are each precious angels in human form. You are here with a purpose, each and every one – a purpose most unique and unlike that of any other. You are on Earth as representatives of the many cultures and races who watch you with avid fascination. You are a diverse community at the the very least." (2)
Archangel Michael went so far as to say that most of us are or were angels.
"Let me also step forward and remind each of you of your angelic heritage, of that seed of the angelic that rests within, around, each of you.
"For you have many faces. You have many aspects. You have had many realms and experiences of existence. And for most of you ― no, not all, but for most of you ― you have had existence as angelic of one kind or another. And you carry within thee this essence to this day.
"Now, why do I bring this forward as we begin yet again this conversation on the principalities, thrones, dominions and so on? Because it is important that you also realize that we do not merely speak about the bureaucracy of heaven, or the Company of Heaven. We speak about you, about who you are, and about this energy, this essence, this spark of light that took this form of angelic being once upon a time. And I would urge each of you to acknowledge, to embrace, and to dig and to bring forth your angelic self." (3)
Others are galactic and intergalactic beings from the starships that are here above us assisting us with Ascension, as SaLuSa explains.
"You will not be surprised to know that many of you are from our craft and already members of the Galactic Federation.
"When a high point is reached during a soul's evolution such as your present position, they often volunteer to return to Earth to assist others in theirs. Sometimes it is to fulfil promises made in another lifetime, or of a karmic nature." (4)
He called us "great Beings of Light, who stepped down into the lower realms." (5) Saul called us "immortal, divine beings of immense wisdom" (6) and "divine beings of power and might." (7)
The Arcturian Group reveal that "you are Divine beings in your real identity and therefore have infinite sources of ideas and ways of doing and being." (8)
And the Sirian High Council through Lauren Gorgo reveals: "You are of a giant brigade of warrior souls who decided that you would come to earth to unveil your true essence as a master of creation and assist the world in the great ascension of human consciousness." (9)
The ascension process is not new to any of us – or we wouldn't be here – Archangel Michael tells us.
"Beloved masters, first of all, allow us to ease your minds. The ascension process is not new to you. You have accomplished it many times before.
"You all are masters of the highest order, or you would not have been chosen as Star Seed Wayshowers for this unprecedented evolutionary process the Earth and humanity are presently experiencing. You have expert credentials, and you have proven your cocreative mastery a multitude of times during your many cosmic journeys." (10)
All of us exist simultaneously in other places, the Arcturians through Sue Lie tell us: "You have other bodies besides this one." (11) Wes Annac's sources elaborate:
"Many, many fragments of your overall being are stationed in places that are important to the earth's Ascension, and the physical locations you're each in are also important to your earth's ascension and, specifically, to the energy you're being given, which is helping you reach increasingly pure states of consciousness and awareness." (12)
Why was All This Not Revealed Before?
So why are we only learning this now? Why was this not revealed to us years or decades earlier? The Arcturian Group answers:
"The problem has been that … most were not ready to know this until now. In your ignorance you have believed yourselves to be less that the lowest.
"Churches taught that you were worms in the dust until you performed certain rituals or believed certain doctrines. In your ignorance, you accepted this, freely giving your power to those who would then claim it for themselves, convincing you that only they knew what was best for you." (13)
But we are growing in love, awareness, and courage and so this new knowledge is being revealed to us, Archangel Michael says.
"We are revealing and explaining more and more Universal concepts as you grow in Self-awareness, and as you experience the new, more powerful frequencies of Light. As you are ready to integrate it, we are gradually refining and expanding your cosmic knowledge.
"The more refined frequencies you integrate, the stronger your desire will become to share the powerful loving energy you feel pulsating from within your Sacred Heart center." (14)
He asserts that he chose all of us to be here at this time.
"This is the circle of 6 billion-plus that I chose to do this with. So, yes. You have gathered from far and wide, seraphs, archangels, those from the Outer Forces, the Inner Forces. It is a gathering the magnitude of which you are just glimpsing." (15)
He goes on to say why he had not spoken of it before:
"Then you say to me, 'Well, Lord, why have you not spoken of this before?' Because you weren't ready. Period.
"Within that sense of lack of self-worth and the ego out of control, you weren't ready to have this conversation. You weren't ready to be in that place of the balance, which is the place that you create from." (16)
Well, now we are ready and we're looking at the full story of how all this came about.
Tomorrow we'll look at how we agreed to wear the veil that hides reality from us and ensconces us in illusion.

Use a large carving or serrated knife to cut the lid of a pumpkin and smaller knives, such as boning knives, for carving the actual features. Children should be provided with something safer to carve their pumpkins, such as a pumpkin carving set specially made for younger hands, notes Organic Authority.
Before carving, it is important to choose the right kind of pumpkin. The ideal pumpkins for carving are large and relatively light in color and weight. This lightness indicates a softer, more hollow interior. Pumpkins with signs of decay, including bruises and soft patches, should also be avoided, particularly if the pumpkin is intended for prolonged display.
When scooping out the flesh and seeds of the pumpkin, scrape deep enough to reach the lighter flesh in order to reflect the optimal amount of light. For more attractive or stylized pumpkin designs, draw the outlines directly onto the pumpkin before carving, ensuring that only erasable or water-based materials are used. Alternatively, the pumpkin's features can be designed or found on a computer and printed for use as a template. This can then be placed against the surface of the pumpkin and traced through with a sharp knife or pin before carving the pumpkin.

A new boutique cafe wants Malaysians to experience the joys of dark chocolate, writes Aznim Ruhana Md Yusup
CHOCOLATE is comfort food, something that takes you back to your childhood. But dark chocolate is the adult version of that, one that wears serious shoes, pays taxes and does other boring things. It's bitter with a slight acidic note. But for fans of dark chocolate, there's nothing else like it.
The Dark Gallery, which opened in MyTown mall in Kuala Lumpur in March, specialises in dark chocolate products.
The cafe has ice-creams, beverages and pastries all crafted from dark chocolate, and it aims to please both dark chocolate fans and sceptics. So it's a good thing that we tend to be adventurous eaters.
"Malaysians are foodies," says Dark Gallery brands and sales manager Eunice Siaw during a media review session. "We like to discover new things. A dark chocolate concept store is new and exciting for consumers."
The Dark Gallery doesn't just specialise in dark chocolate — it prides itself with bringing in single origin chocolates. These chocolates come from specific cocoa-growing countries such as Madagascar, Venezuela or Tanzania, and each has a unique flavour profile.
To get a taste of these single origin chocolates, Siaw recommends the Single Origin Dark Chocolate Ice-Cream set (RM21). It features three scoops of ice cream, each made of chocolate from Madagascar, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela.
These are also labelled by its chocolate percentages. In this case, it's 64 per cent Madagascar, 70 per cent Dominican Republic and 72 per cent Venezuela.
You can sometimes see these percentages in retail chocolate bars too. What it indicates is how much, by weight ratio, of the actual cocoa bean or cocoa bean parts that go into making that chocolate product. The rest may be sugar, milk, vanilla or any other ingredients added by the manufacturer.
In general, the higher the percentage, the more intense the chocolate flavour. Siaw says it is best to eat the ice-cream with the lower percentage first, before moving on to the ones with a higher percentage so as not to overwhelm your taste buds.
I find the Madagascan to have a deep chocolate flavour that is slightly bitter than regular chocolate ice-cream. The Dominican has a wonderful cocoa aroma that comes with its sharp flavour, while the Venezuelan is deep and intense.
It's true that the ice-creams are more bitter than regular chocolate but the flavour is also more complex. Those with a more discerning palate can try to identify the acidic or fruity notes as identified on the information leaflet. But I like that the ice-creams are not cloyingly sweet or greasy, and they also taste "cleaner" on the tongue.
"Dark chocolate has health benefits because of its antioxidants but since we add things like milk and sugar, we can't really say how healthy it is now," says Siaw. "That said, we keep our sugar content low, we don't add artificial flavours and we use good quality chocolate couvertures, which is the raw ingredient for our products."
Another take on the tasting platter is the Single Origin Hot Chocolate Shots (RM15), also using chocolates from Madagascar, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela.
The overall flavour profile is similar to the ice-cream, but the chocolate kick is deeper and richer.
Siaw says, "We use no other ingredients except chocolate couverture and milk. There's no sugar in the shots because we want people to taste the original flavour."
If you're not feeling up to trying different versions of dark chocolate ice-cream, there's The Chocolate Rhapsody dessert (RM28). It comes with three chocolate ice-cream flavours; dark, white and milk chocolate. The scoops sit on a bed of chocolate "soil", with dabs of mousse and meringue.
It's a good dish for sharing and for satisfying different chocolate preferences. The soil is made from crumbled cookie while the milk chocolate ice-cream tastes significantly sweeter than the dark, though perhaps not as sweet as regular retail ice cream.
"The white chocolate when it is in couverture form is not really white," says Siaw. "It's actually a brownish caramel colour but because we add milk and cream to turn it into ice-cream, it becomes white."
Other dessert dishes include the Ice Cream Waffle (RM20), Banana Split (RM24) and Chocolate Brownie Mess (RM20). The Frozen Smores (RM15) has sweet marshmallow blanketing a square of dark chocolate ice cream. It is torched on order, and the two contrasting flavours work really well.
The Dark Gallery also offers ice-creams starting from RM10 per scoop, macarons (RM4.50 each) as well as ice-cream cakes, artisanal chocolate bars, cookies and granolas.

With their unusual arrangement of letters and numbers, vanity license plates are a tease — daring us to unravel their meaning.
What do they say about South Florida drivers? To some folks, vanity plates reflect our region's image-driven, look-at-me ways.
"We are very cultural. We are probably more intense when it comes to taking care of our cars,'' said Juan Rivera, a spokesman for AAA in Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties. "Vanity plates are like spray-paint for our cars."
Last year, Florida motorists paid almost $4 million to advertise their name (H1 JACK), work (TUSH MD), background (AFRIKAN), favorite team (AD0LFAN) — you NAME IT. South Florida represents 21 percent of the state's personalized plates. Out of about 425,600 statewide, Palm Beach County has 37,095, followed by Broward with 30,040, and Miami-Dade with 24,091.
"Just the word 'vanity' is Palm Beach,'' said John Fischer, a Boca Raton caterer whose 2006 Jaguar's plate reads: TABL 4 2. It reflects his work in organizing romantic surprise dinners for couples.
Fisher said he likes that his plate turns heads. "I get compliments on it and that will spark a conversation. If I see somebody at a light, I will get smiles and maybe a thumbs up."

Pretty much everyone is going to bring up the opening of Dom Hemingway, and since I am nothing if not unoriginal, I shall do the same. The film opens with Jude Law getting his Bronson on, delivering a lengthy and exuberant soliloquy on the virtues of his penis while, it becomes apparent, someone else is visiting attention on said penis. It's a memorable opening, for sure, and ends up being the most memorable part of the movie. Much of the rest will be familiar to anyone who's see enough movies about tough guys being ridiculous.
Dom Hemingway (Law) is a former safecracker who took the fall for a heist gone bad and has spent the last twelve years in prison as a result. Now that he's out, though, he expects that everything will be smooth sailing. The man he took the rap for, Fontaine (Demian Bichir) is a wealthy gangster willing to reward Dom heavily for his loyalty. So with his best mate Dickie Black (Richard E. Grant) in tow, Dom heads to the crime lord's country villa for some good times. Unfortunately, things go very badly, and Dom and Dickie find themselves broke. Which means that Dom will have to return to his criminal ways to make ends meet. Also, Emilia Clarke is in there too as Dom's daughter, with whom he is trying to reconnect. She's not really important, though. Really, they could have ditched her to no ill effect.
Dom Hemingway feels more like half a movie than a full movie. And not the first half, either, but rather a movie that's had a significant chunk cut out of it all over the place. It spends a lot of time in various places without quite doing enough to give the audience a feel for them. First it's prison, then it's the villa, then it's the housing complex where Dom crashes in on his daughter. Every plot development seems both stretched and underdeveloped. The first third appears to be setting up things that turn out to go nowhere. Up to a very late point, it seems like the movie could easily still have another full hour left to it (As it is, it's 90 minutes, which I appreciate. Brevity, wit, etc). The script is untamed and undisciplined, easily its biggest weakness.
Of course, that's also it's asset. Or rather, it's an asset as channeled through Law, who is having a tremendous amount of fun. And he will make you have at least a little bit of fun too, even if he has to grab you by the hair and drag you to it with an insincere grin plastered on his face. Dom Hemingway is an irrepressible drunk, chronically unable to keep himself from saying the exact wrong thing at any given time, and a great lover of smashing property and faces. While most of his past exploits are alluded to rather than depicted, Law's uncouth braggadocio makes it no trouble at all to believe him capable of mass personal and environmental destruction. And Grant sneaks in a great act as Hemingway's unflappable foil. This film is a comedy of manners amongst those with few to spare, exemplified in a scene in which Dom learns that Dickie lost a hand while he's been gone and responds with considerable less tact than he should.
While Dom Hemingway does not add up to much worth remembering, it is a perfectly amicable ride. If I could, I would lift the title character and Dickie Blackman from it and into a better story. But there are worse things than pulling off a nicely-made, self-contained piece of work.
Dom Hemingway is now playing in select theaters and expands April 18th.

SOURCE: U.S.English
June 28, 2013 16:50 ET
WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - Jun 28, 2013) - U.S.English Chairman Mauro E. Mujica today released the following statement in response to the Senate's passage of a comprehensive immigration reform bill.
S. 744, the Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act, will permit current illegal immigrants to stay in the United States upon meeting certain criteria, including paying back taxes and undergoing background checks. The bill also includes increased border security provisions, which should be enforced prior to granting amnesty to illegal immigrants.
"It is extremely disappointing that the Senate's immigration reform bill of more than 1,200 pages does not include any of the English language amendments that were proposed," Chairman Mujica said. "English proficiency is the one tool that immigrants to the United States need to succeed here. Rather than making it easier for immigrants to come to this country and maintain their native language, the government should be encouraging them to assimilate and learn our common language. English proficiency is already required for naturalization, and should likewise be required prior to granting residency to illegal immigrants."
The legislation passed the Senate on Thursday by a vote of 68 - 32 and now awaits consideration in the U.S. House of Representatives. Senator Marco Rubio, Senator Jim Inhofe and Senator Deb Fischer all introduced amendments that would have strengthened English language requirements and processes. One would have declared English the official language of the United States government, one would have required immigrants to demonstrate English proficiency prior to gaining residency, and one would have accounted for the cost of multilingualism in the federal government. None of these amendments were included in the legislation passed by the Senate.
"As the House of Representatives prepares to take up immigration reform legislation, I strongly urge them to include crucial provisions highlighting the importance of English proficiency among immigrants to the United States," Mujica added. "Immigrants who learn English prior to becoming residents of the United States will find that doors of opportunity open to them and they will be able to contribute to society on a level playing field with native citizens. The English language is the one thread that unites American citizens in our diversity, and immigration reform that does not require English proficiency is not serving its purpose."
U.S.English, Inc. is the nation's oldest and largest non-partisan citizens' action group dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States. Founded in 1983 by the late Sen. S.I. Hayakawa of California, U.S.English, Inc. (www.usenglish.org) now has more than 1.8 million members.

Participating Organizations
Boston, MassachusettsView All Records
WGBH traces its roots back to 1836, when textile merchant John Lowell, Jr. (of the illustrious "Lowells of Massachusetts," one of America's great early families) left a bequest creating "free public lectures for the benefit of the citizens of Boston." In his will, Lowell set aside $250,000, half his estate, to underwrite the public lectures in perpetuity.
In the early 1940s the position of Trustee of the Lowell Institute passed to Ralph Lowell. Intrigued by the Federal Communications Commission's 1945 announcement that 20 of the 90 radio channels in the newly relocated frequency modulation (FM) band had been reserved for noncommercial stations, Lowell considered a Lowell Institute FM station as a new way to fulfill the institute's mission. Conversations with James Bryant Conant, president of Harvard University, led instead to the notion that Boston-area universities and colleges produce educational programs for broadcast on commercial AM outlets.
In 1946, the Lowell Institute Cooperative Broadcasting Council (LICBC) was formed—a cooperative venture with six Boston colleges, broadcasting lectures on commercial radio.
In April 1951, the WGBH Educational Foundation was formed, to launch an FM station that would carry the LICBC lectures. The "GBH" stood for Great Blue Hill, the site of the station's antenna atop a Harvard-operated weather observatory. The incorporators and original board members were Ralph Lowell (as Trustee of the Lowell Institute), the presidents and treasurers of Harvard and MIT, and the president of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
Noncommercial radio station WGBH-FM made its initial broadcast on October 6, 1951: the first Saturday-evening performance of the BSO's 71st season, live from Boston's famed Symphony Hall. The broadcast opened with words of welcome from Ralph Lowell and BSO President Henry Cabot. It was the first full-length broadcast of a symphony concert in Boston in 25 years. Only 15 percent of the households in Greater Boston had FM receivers, but WGBH's premiere foray was considered a rousing success. During its first year, WGBH-FM broadcast 2,600 hours of programming—10 times the amount the LICBC had been allotted on commercial radio.
On May 2, 1955, WGBH-TV signed on for the first time. Its first broadcast was Come and See, a program for young children with folk singer Tony Saletan and Mary Lou Adams from Tufts University Nursery Training School. That was followed by Louis Lyons (a WGBH-FM fixture) reading the news before a camera.
Most early "Channel 2" programs were course lectures: French Through Television, Your Income Taxes, From Criminal to Citizen. Over time, WGBH made its mark by creating programs locally that were shared with other stations—this prior to the creation of the Public Broadcasting Service. Notable among them was Prospects of Mankind, a monthly series in which former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt interviewed statesmen from all over the world.
In 1962, WGBH produced three programs on French cooking, after a Cambridge cookbook author appeared on a WGBH book-review program and whipped up not only egg whites but an interest in how-to television. Within a year The French Chef with Julia Child was teaching audiences in several major cities to cook with courage. "Educational TV" had its first national star—and WGBH had the first in a long line of productions that would transform American broadcasting and put the Boston station on the map.
Today, WGBH is public broadcasting for New England, the number one producer of PBS programming (on TV, the Web, online, and mobile), a major source of public radio content, and a pioneer in both educational multimedia and media access solutions serving millions of people with disabilities.
WGBH's best-known television series include Frontline, NOVA, American Experience, Masterpiece, and PBS' #1 rated Antiques Roadshow. A record in award-winning programs for children began in 1972 with Zoom and includes past shows such as Degrassi Junior High, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego, Between the Lions, and FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman. Current children's programs include the #1 PBS show for preschoolers (Curious George), the top two ranked PBS programs for kids 6-11 (Curious George and Arthur, respectively), and the popular series Peep and the Big Wide World, Martha Speaks, and Design Squad Nation.
WGBH Radio distributes national productions such as The World (co-produced by WGBH, PRI, and the BBC), which reaches 2.5 million listeners. WGBH Radio also serves our local community through analog and digital high-definition radio stations, including 89.7 FM and 99.5 FM All Classical. Our radio broadcasts reach over 335,000 listeners weekly, and over a hundred thousand more log on to wgbh.org's live audio streaming each month. In 2012, WGBH acquired Public Radio International, whose programs can be heard on over 800 public radio stations.
WGBH's local television productions address the needs and interests of the region through programs like Greater Boston (a daily news and public affairs show) and Basic Black (a weekly series focusing on the African-American experience in Boston and beyond). La Plaza, a weekly local program on the culture and concerns of Latino communities, aired for over 30 years on WGBH. A recent addition to WGBH's local line-up is High School Quiz Show, a televised match-up of competing quiz bowl teams from high schools across the state that is now in its fourth season. In 2012, WGBH pioneered a new partnership with New Hampshire Public Television (NHPTV), which will streamline operations and encourage the continued production of thoughtful, community-driven public media.


text: Hey all - want some advice. I'm picking up my shiny new MBA this week (my first Mac, BTW!). I am trying to decide if I am going to also switch over to iWork rather than MS Office 2011 Mac. FYI I get Office 2011 for $10 through my job - so if the difference between the two is primarily cost, then MS Office is actually cheaper for me. What I am most curious about is whether there is any particular reason to go with iWork over MS Office (or vice versa) when using a MBA. Any difference in overall performance? I've heard that MS Word in particular really chomps away at CPU cycles - which I think is weird - is that true? Is Pages any better? Also I will be using the MBA for work and all of the office documents that I will collaborate on will be with co-workers that use MS Office (2010 or 2013) - so what about compatibility? Would it be a safer bet to stick with MS Office? Or can I jump ship and go all in on the platform?! Whadya think?

With the recent change to the EventReverb API, it appears that we now have no way of accessing the names of the available reverb presets. Previously this was possible by calling getReverbByIndex and then getInfo on the object that was returned. The new getReverbPresetByIndex only gives us the EVENT_REVERB_PROPERTIES struct. Can we maybe get a char ** argument added to getReverbPresetByIndex, to have it give us the name as well?

Pre-Kindergarden in Dhaka
we are moving with our 3.5 years' old daughter to Dhaka and looking for pre-kindergarden options. The obvious but also by far most expensive option seems to be the American School. Do you know of any other options; i.e. where our kid would be taught by native English speakers (i.e. with at least a few of the teachers being expats?)? (From the websites it seems to me that Dhaka International School, Canadian & Australian school are just sort of up-market Bangladeshi private schools... How international are they really??? What's the share of expat/ local kids?)
Thanks for sharing where you are sending your kids.

Thank you so much Lynnwood and Ginny, I think I will wait until after the new year and make an appt: Patty Latty lives down there so I know she will be a huge support for me.
Ginny how are you feeling? I hope you aren't over doing it. You asked how I felt about this time line. It's kind of strange but I actually feel someone releived. My health care worker keeps telling me now Carol there is nothing stamped on the bottom off your foot that says you only have so much time. lol. Of course she is referring to a commercial on television for cancer treatment centers of america. I don't have a death wish or anothing but living hooked up to machines and spending so much time in the hospital. The only thing I don't want to do is suffercate. That thought scares me. I just don't want these doctors to play games with me. Just spit it out ya know? My husband was my age when he died. I don't know what God has planned but since I am a christian I'm not praying for healing. I'm praying that he gives me strength to make a diffrence in someones life while I'm still here. But I plan on laughin alot and telling jokes and having christmas tree lights up and bake cookies. and enjoy my friends and family. I'm sorry if I'm making anyone uncomfortable I really don't mean to. I'm sure not all days will be good days but I'll take what I go one day at a time. Wow I'm really tired all the sudden so I think I'll get some rest.
Your blood problems don't sound to good to me. but I have to admit I will have to read up on itto really understand. is it inflamation in your heart valves that you took the pred. for?
just remember phil.4:11
thanks again ladies. I hope you don't have any more problems pop up on ya. totally praying for ya!
love ya guys

Hi everyone, I would love to speak to each of you seperately but I'm having a tough time. I can't get on the list while taking predisone. I guess when you get a transplant they want you to not have osteoporosis because you will be put on anti rejection meds to take your whole life. which of course causes bone thinning. I already have osteo but it's not bad and it can be reversed in some cases. So that's what I'm shooting for. Anywa it's been three das off the steroids. I noticed this morning my knees were starting to hurt. by tonight I have a serious back ache. I take vicodin and it is doing absolutely nothing! I would get more out of an aspirin. I'm setting at the computer and worrried about when I stand up I know my tailbone is gonna hurt! I asked my doctor if she could give me somthing instead of pred. like methodrexate or whatever. She said those meds do specific thing in specific areas and they are not good for the lungs. Well I just wanted you guys to know that all of your messages to me have touched my heart and I wish I could get together with each one of you. You are all so special to me.
Hang in there all
love ya


text: Supply Chain Finance Platforms should rethink business models David Gustin - October 15, 2014 2:11 AM | Categories: Supply Chain Finance, Technology & Platforms, Trade Financing | As I watch the race to go after the large pie that represents trade credit on corporate balance sheets, many of the platform providers have different business models and forms of revenue creation. A platform business provides: A network layer that connect all the sides – Buyers, Sellers, Banks, Others Tools and rules layer to provide the necessary visibility and certainty required for finance partners to make decisions A data layer and structure that drives customer interactions in web, mobile and other digital channels. In addition, some will offer supplier adoption services which can include web training, document management and customer service. And many are adding Analytics to support customers working capital analysis as the cull through spend data. Taulia recently introduced a product to provide payment trends called Taulia Analytics. Some platforms are now of significant size – think of Basware or Ariba's network, or the amount running through PrimeRevenue monthly. It is substantial. Many vendors continue to make money by selling software. Some have subscription models that are paid by the buyer and sellers use the service for free, others charge basis points for transactions that flow through, and still others may use some revenue share on rebates, or a combination of these. But if you look at all the data that these networks contain, new services could be created on top of that data. Intuit is a company that built a whole suite of products around their data. Banks don't sit on both buyer and seller data that B2B and Supplier Networks do. The world of business credit is surprisingly unconnected. But having real data, not survey data, puts these platforms in a position to create all kinds of services – for institutional investors looking at risk, to banks that want to analyze industry sectors or supply chains to corporates that want to compare payment terms. Of course data privacy issues must be overcome, but better data leads to better decisions, and I think its only a matter of time before these networks start monetizing their data. p.s.

text: This isn't new, and probably also relevant for other (nasty) DNS providers. When they encounter a DNS they can't resolve - they redirect the request to some IP that ends up serving an advertisement or something similar, instead of returning a NXDOMAIN (non-existent domain) response to that DNS resolution request. This gets very annoying if you use the address bar in your browser (Firefox, in my case) as a search bar as well: if you search for two words or more, the browser knows for sure it's a search and performs the requested action. However, when you search for a single word, it tries first to resolve it as a DNS query and only when that fails (NXDOMAIN response) it performs the search. When you use OpenDNS you can't use the address bar for single-word searches. Now I can 0. Goto Advanced -> DHCP/DNS 1. Make sure Intercept DNS port is checked. 2. In Custom configuration add the following: Code: # Counter OpenDNS NXDOMAIN hijacking bogus-nxdomain=126.96.36.199 This is the IP returned from OpenDNS instead of the NXDOMAIN response. This tells dnsmasq to treat this response as if NXDOMAIN was returned.

My nephew has gotten into rock collecting. He would pick them up anywhere he could, the school play yard, beach, and anywhere he could. His grandparents bought him for Christmas a rock tumbling machine that would take a rough jagged stone and smooth and polish it out.
How many of us are walking around as rough jagged stones? If someone should rub us the wrong way, are they liable to be cut by someone else with their jagged, rough edges?
Then when I started think upon it …… the rock tumbling machine………that uses abrasion by its constant tumbling and water to make the rough rock smooth.
How many of us when we were born again, were still pretty rough in nature, unrefined to our new spiritual nature in Christ?
The water, the water of the word and the abrasion of our flesh and our spiritual state against one another, is a process, that causes the smoothing out of our jagged rough edges.
The renewing of our minds is a must if we don't want to retain the rough jagged edges of our fallen, old sinful nature.
Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world any longer with its superficial values and customs, but be transformed and progressively changed as you mature spiritually by the renewing of your mind focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes, so that you may prove for yourselves what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect in His plan and purpose for you.
We have been made a new creation in Christ Jesus.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior, he is a new creature reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit; the old things the previous moral and spiritual condition have passed away. Behold, new things have come because spiritual awakening brings a new life.
Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he in behavior—one who manipulates.
John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh conveys no benefit it is of no account. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life providing eternal life.
Let the Word of God change your thinking as you let it tumble off the rough jagged edges, as correct thinking leads to right living in Him.

I have used several products to fight freckles and sun spots on my skin. Although I avoid the sun and use a top shelf SPF I have always struggled with hyper pigmentation due to genetics. This product has given me amazing results within 2 months usage. My brown spots have lightened up considerably. This is also loaded with Vitamin C and other antioxidants. It is completely worth every penny and if you use it every day at night and you will see results within a couple of months or less.

Great product along with the rest of the iS Clinical line
Mon Aug 15 10:55:07 BST 2016 by
My skin is looking better, have only used for two weeks but I'm not breaking out and my skin is looking brighter.
Wed Aug 10 07:46:34 BST 2016 by
I've used this serum since iS Clinical brand started. It is the best serum that keeps you looking young and I always purchase this from SkinCareRx.
Wed Jan 20 01:48:07 GMT 2016 by
I have been using this for the last week and have definitely noticed the difference.
Thu Jan 14 09:41:40 GMT 2016 by
I liked this serum. It did seem to brighten up my skin without causing any breakouts to my sensitive skin.
Thu Dec 31 08:59:32 GMT 2015 by
I really like this product! Overall it is a great product that I combine with the hydra cool serum. If you have sensitive skin this might not be for you as it tingles and stings a little.
Wed Aug 12 04:56:29 BST 2015 by
I bought this based on a recommendation from Stephanie. I've tried other vitamin c serums and this is by far my favorite. It has no odor which is a big plus because one that I tried smelled like Bologna. Yuck! the texture of the serum is thin but spreads easily. Only three drops covers my entire face so this bottle will last a long time.
Sun Jul 12 05:33:21 BST 2015 by
I love this. Thank you Skincarerx for selling fresh products, with the expiry date very far away! This serum makes my skin bright, soft and healthy. I will purchase again.
Wed Apr 15 22:42:28 BST 2015 by
I have been using this product for a few years. It lightens age spots and improves skin tone. I will continue to use it and recommend it to friends.
Fri Mar 27 10:15:10 GMT 2015 by
I have been using this serum for approximately 1 month and it really does lighten and brighten the skin. An added bonus for me, is the improvement seen on my neck and chest area. The product is neither drying or greasy. I use in the morning and the evening. I will purchase this product again, and I look forward to continued improvement over the coming months!
Tue Nov 25 03:49:20 GMT 2014 by
I am very pleased with this product. In a one-month time period I have noticed an improvement in the skin tone on my face. The added bonus, was the vast improvement on my neck and chest area. I will definitely continue to purchase this product and would recommend to my friends. I'm looking forward to the next month of usage.
