Farmers, FFA members, researchers and government officials gave Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns an earful at USDA's first farm bill listening session in Nashville. But what could have been the most controversial presentation wasn't delivered during the forum.
A representative of Oxfam America handed me and other journalists copies of a one-page paper, "Farm payment reform: Reasonable Payment Limits Good for Tennessee," as we left the event.
Oxfam is the driving force behind a worldwide effort to blame U.S. cotton farmers for poverty in African countries. The National Cotton Council has said the impoverishment has more to do with the marketing system in those countries than U.S. farm payments.
The paper handed out in Nashville did not address poverty in Africa but attempted to link farm subsidies with low commodity prices, overproduction and agricultural dumping into foreign markets.
It repeated claims that the bulk of government farm payments "go to the largest, industrial farms, while smaller operations receive little or no support," and "Loopholes in the rules allow some to draw virtually unlimited commodity payments, despite rules meant to limit payments to a $360,000 maximum."
This, they said, has created a negative spiral of effects for rural communities: higher farm concentration, growing costs of farming, commodity overproduction, depressed prices and increased reliance on dumping agricultural products."
The authors noted Tennessee had a 4 percent increase in population between 2000 and 2004, but the two counties receiving the highest subsidy payments — Haywood and Gibson — lost population. (Having relatives in Haywood County, I can say the 0.9 percent loss in population has nothing to do with farm payments.)
Referring to administration proposals to cap farm payments at $250,000, the paper said such a limit would affect only 34 recipients, 0.03 percent of the "76,963" who received farm payments in Tennessee. (Source: The Environmental Working Group.)
It urged readers to support legislation introduced by Senators Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa; Byron Dorgan, D-N.D.; and Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., which would place limits on farm subsidies to individuals, eliminate the "cumbersome" three-entity rule and close the commodity certificate "loophole."
"Capping subsidies is a fairer solution to solving the budget shortfall than slashing other agricultural programs, such as environmental, conservation or food stamps, which benefits almost 13 percent of Tennessee's citizens," the paper said.
I asked the Oxfam representative why she didn't speak during the forum. "I went to the forum to hear the concerns expressed by the farmers, and I know that Johanns and the administration are already on board with payment limits," said Brooke Jamison, Oxfam's trade policy advisor. "However, the forum did confirm that farm consolidation is a major problem for many farmers, and it was clear the current system isn't working for everyone."
For cotton farmers who keep hoping the payment limit controversy will just go away, that clearly won't be the case.

New Matrox DS1 Dock For Macbooks Uses Thunderbolt
Subject: General Tech, Mobile | June 3, 2012 - 11:08 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: computex, thunderbolt, Matrox, macbook, dock, apple
Matrox has recently launched a new Thunderbolt dock aimed at adding desktop peripherals to Apple Macbooks and Ultrabooks. The dock connects via a single Thunderbolt cable (it does require a separate power source as well) and provides one USB 3.0 port, two USB 2.0 ports, a DVI video output, audio in/out jacks, and a Gigabit LAN port. It will be available for purchase in September with an MSRP of $249 USD.
Matrox has released a new laptop dock called the Matrox DS1 that is designed to pair with Thunderbolt-equipped notebooks and provide several additional connectivity options. The aluminum chassis is reminiscent of a slimmer WD My Book drive because of the book like shape. The front of the DS1 dock is a Thunderbolt input and status LED. On the back of the dock is a DVI output, three USB ports (one USB 3.0, two USB 2.0), microphone input, headphone output, and a Gigabit LAN port. To the far right is a DC power input which means that the dock is a bit less portable than I would like but it is not clear how big of a "wall wart" it will come with.
The company has stated that the aluminum case should protect the dock in just about every use case, and the additional IO certainly adds much needed connectivity to Ultrabooks where available ports are at a premium. Senior Director of Sales and Marketing for Matrox, Alberto Cieri, has been quoted by Apple Insider in stating "The new Matrox DS1 docking station easily enables the creation of an ergonomic workspace and brings much-needed expandability for printers, scanners, storage, smartphones, optical drives, cameras, flash drives, and other peripherals."
The Matrox DS1 will be shown off at Computex 2012 this week in Taipei, Taiwan at Intel's booth (M0410 in the Nangang Exhibition Hall). After that, it will be shown off at WWDC in San Fransico and Infocomm in Las Vegas on June 12th and June 13th to June 15th respectively. In September of this year it will be available for purchase with an MSRP of $249 USD.
Situations like this are where Thunderbolt really shines, and I would not be surprised to see companies outfitting employees with Ultrabooks for mobile use and a larger monitor and peripherals for in-office use (eschewing a separate desktop machine altogether). The price, especially considering Thunderbolt cables themselves are expensive is going to be the most limiting factor for docks like these despite their usefulness.
Editor's Note: Although Tim didn't mention it, one kind of interesting drawback is that this device does NOT include a Thunderbolt pass through, basically preventing users from taking advantage of the daisy-chain capability TB can offer via a single port / connections on the laptop or computer.
Video News
No Thunderbolt pass through makes this less useful.
Yeah, that is a good point, especially since this is 250 bucks. It's just an option though, I know that there are some docks coming out this year that do have pass-through capability but I'm guessing that's going to add even more to the cost.
Well 250$ is way to much for what you get. Thunderbolt atm is way to costly for most people to even consider using.
Yeah, but all thunderbolt devices are expensive, this is pretty cheap relative to the other docks. I definitely don't see home users adopting TB stuff until it comes down in price, USB 3.0 is much cheaper and is what home users will use. People with corporate expense accounts on the other hand.. ;)
It will be interstesting to see if some manufacturer builds an x16 pcie slot into one or maybe a new TB graphics accelerator interface (highly doubtfull).
No Optical audio out, and no firewire == deal breaker
This won't be relevant for 2 years. I just went from usb 2 to 3 for an external hard drive. It was like going from a cow grazing in a pasture to a lightening bolt, pun intended. This stuff just isn't worth this kind of money.


text: The sell-out crowd at the Toyota Centre in Houston was wowed by the entertaining array of alley-oop baskets and slam dunks from the all-star teams [Reuters]Kevin Durant and Blake Griffin provided a potent mix of outside shooting and inside dominance to lift the Western Conference to a 143-138 victory over the Eastern Conference in the NBA All-Star game on Sunday. Durant scored 30 points and Griffin added 19, on nine-of-11 shooting, but the Most Valuable Player Award went to Chris Paul, who scored 20 points and added 15 assists for the West. Paul told Durant, the NBA's leading scorer and last year's All-Star game MVP, to expect to see the ball in his hands. "I told KD early in the first quarter, 'Man, if they score anything, you run. I'll get you the ball, you score. I want to be the one to give it to you,'" recalled the Los Angeles Clippers guard. "In games like this it's so up-tempo and fast paced, a guy like me that's a facilitator, I enjoy it." Carmelo Anthony of the New York Knicks paced the East with 26 points, followed by Miami guard Dwyane Wade, who had 21, and LeBron James, who added 19. Spectacle Durant hit 13-of-24 shots to lead the West to a third straight victory in the annual showcase that features little defence, a lot of dunks, and plenty of assists for anyone who decides to pass. "I'm just out there having fun," Oklahoma City forward Durant said. "I played a lot of street basketball. I played a lot of celebrity games. "This is my type of ballgame, up and down."Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant, a three-time MVP of the game, duelled James several times in the fourth quarter and came out on top. James nailed seven-of-18 shots but misfired on all four fourth-quarter attempts. James, a forward with the Miami Heat, said he was not startled to see the smaller Bryant guarding him with the game on the line. "He does it all the time," James said. "I am absolutely not surprised. It was all in good spirit. It was just two guys that love to compete, love to go at it. It was a lot of fun." Competitive edge The West held a three-point, fourth-quarter lead but a 25-foot, three-pointer by Paul, a driving lay-up by Bryant, and a dunk by Durant pushed the lead to 136-126 with 2:34 left. Anthony said at halftime with the West leading 69-65 his East team mates decided "we were going to go after it". "Everybody competed," he said. "We get guys out there of that calibre, they're going to compete. Nobody likes to lose. "At the end of the day, we're all basketball players, we're all competitors." The sell-out Toyota Center crowd of 16,101 roared its approval at the array of alley-oop baskets, sprints to the hoop, and the rim-rattling dunks by Griffin, Paul's team mate with the Clippers. West coach Gregg Popovich of the San Antonio Spurs praised both teams, saying: "Those guys are the best in the world and they competed and worked hard." "They respected the game," he said. "They respected each other. Nobody got hurt. The fans had a great time. That's what it's all about." SOURCE: Reuters Sport US Sports

A really friendly service. Mark, Ashlea and Sarah were all very friendly and very helpful. It was a pleasure to do business and I look forward to using them again!
New Car Deals were very friendly, always available, quick to respond and very professional. Mark, Sara and Ashlea were a pleaseure to deal with, and i absolutely love my new E300 Coupe!
Great service everything went really smooth - I would recommend New Car Deals for your next car.
Many thanks to all the staff especially Andy , Ashlea and Sara . I love my new Jeep Renegade and the whole process was effortless - from my first contact with Andy, to the car being delivered. The deal was unbeatable. I would highly recommend this fantastic company. Thanks so much.
This is my third leasing arrangement and the best so far. The delivery at Cairnryan was so slick I was able to return on the same ferry. Well done New Car Deals and most especially Sara
Initially paid arrangement fee and then was going to cancel and go with another company for car with different spec, so glad I didn't. I had spoken to Andrew the whole way through, couldn't fault him. I felt from the start he was completely honest and that's why I chose to stay with New Car Deals. Sara assisted towards then end and couldn't fault her either. Very good service, very pleased.
My second lease car, such a good deal and such good service, thank you Karen and Ashlea
An absolute delight to deal with. Took all my requirements on board and delivered exactly what was promised in the time-frame agreed.
Ordered my new BMW 520 M sport through New Car Deals and I can't fault them at all. Good service, regular updates and very competitive pricing.
The whole process from start to delivery was handled very professionally. James Murgatroyd handled my initial enquiry and worked very hard in securing the finance despite issues with my address. Ashlea then took over and kept me informed and dealt with questions very promptly. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking at Personal Lease.
Great easy process from start to finish. Had the car ordered with Mark within 24 hours and Ashlea has been superb in the after care service. Highly recommend!!
Really pleased with the service I received from New Car Deals and in particular Mark who did everything he said he would. Really efficient service and delivery of the vehicle process was really smooth.
Great customer service from New Car Deals. They have up to date info and keep you well informed through out the entire process. My car was delivered on time and on budget. Ashlea was particularly helpful and went extra mile to keep customer happy. couldn't be happier with my new car :)
Couldn't be happier with the service. My CLA came up 25 pound cheaper than any other site and Andrew Thrower was very efficient and professional and helped me get the car ordered as quickly as possible. I was then handed over to Ashlea Platt in the Admin team who I was particularly impressed with! Despite my hounding she managed to remain understanding and helpful and she ensured my car was delivered on time despite Mercedes trying to incur a slight delay. Will recommend to everyone thanks to the outstanding work from Ashlea!
Great service from the sales and customer service team. Good price, car delivered on time!
New Car Deals were on the ball from start to finish. Thanks Matt, Ashlea and team for great service!

J. Kennedy
We are absolutely made up with our new car, it is exactly how is was described. A lovely gentleman sat and showed me where everything was. From start to finish the service was outstanding and i would highly recommend New Car Deals, there were may far better on all prices too!!
Mr & Mrs Thompson
It's easy when things when things go well, the true test is when they don't you tend to see the other side of the companies and people. So initially everything went OK with the enquiry and when paperwork came through from the Finance company it was for the wrong car. No not a big problem but in the process of trying to sort it out the car we were after had gone and pricing changed.
Mark to his credit kept me posted of the ups and down and assured me it would be OK. A car was found, the price was right, again, and on we went with the order. However, the first mishap I was not sure what was being ordered was correct. So Mark organised a screen shot of the Mercedes Ordering system from the dealer showing the list of models available and therefore easy to work out what was ordered was correct. Sara also kept me posted on the detail and got the paperwork to me promptly especially the second time around when we had to ensure we hit a deadline for getting the order in.
What happened was just one of those things. It would have been easy to walk away from it and problem solved. After all, I am just a personal leasing customer no great loss. But they kept at it and sorted it to their credit. Now looking at another lease car and if the price is right will be using New Car Deals again.
K. Trill
As a first time leaser, I have been thoroughly impressed with new car deals, specifically Karen and Sara. They have been helpful and prompt and Karen was able to find a Kia 3 months before anybody else! Thanks for your service. Would highly recommend them.

The service was fantastic by Mark Coulson and Karen Beck and they we're very patient and attentive, as I went back and forth over the mileage - Their customer service, rapport and excellent knowledge is second to none.

Fantastic - keep up the good work.

L. Khan

J. Burrows
Great service and earlier than expected delivery. Karen Beck was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly throughout the process.
P. Ramdhani
What can I say but this is an amazing company. From the moment I asked for a quote on the vehicle I was interested in, you have all kept me so well informed. Whenever I had a query once again you always got back to me and put my mind at rest. You kept me updated when the vehicle was being delivered and making sure that I was happy with the time and date. Extra thanks to Karen and Sarah for all the patience you showed when I kept bombarding you with my stupid worries. Love the car, still reading about all the extras I am sure I will get there. Just one very small moan petrol gauge was so low with just 1 mile left on the clock, but it got to me so that is all that matters. Would I recommend you YES YES YES thank you.
B. White
From start to finish this has been a smooth process and everything that people said would happen has at the right time and with a professional and friendly attitude at all times. The customer service has been excellent and the delivery was great too. Thankyou!!
B. Everett
I am new to leasing, but found everything clear and the service amazingly efficient. I have already recommended you to several friends. I love my new car. Thanks to all at the team x
S. Hurst
Very happy with the whole process - and with the results so far! All time scales were indeed not only met but surpassed.
M. Shnyder
First time I have ever went for a leasing option rather than HP and couldn't have been happier with the service. From my initial enquiry to completion I have always been kept up to date with the progress. Karen has been outstanding through the process with email and telephone calls just to update me on the progress. At no point was there any pressure to take a deal on a car and no hidden charges which after some extensive shopping around I couldn't say for other leasing brokers. If your thinking of leasing and want an straight forward process with someone always there to help with a query then use this company. I will use New Car Deals again when the HP is finished on my wife's car shortly and when the lease finishes on the new car we received today.
I can not thank all the team at New Car Deal enough. They have given me great service, always being available to answer questions and assist. Not only that, the car arrived on time and they were able to arrange a fantastic deal, far cheaper than I found elsewhere. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
S. Griffiths
Excellent service, friendly team, sound advice and I would certainly use them in the future.
S. Cost
Worked hard to find me the best deal on the car I wanted. Quick simple & a pleasure to deal with.
P. Bull
Fantastic service !!! Every step of the process was delivered in a friendly /professional way. I will be recomending new car deals to everyone.
J. Cope

G. Watts
Just want to say Thank You for everything you did. . Absolutely Brilliant service from you all start to finish!! Highly recommend.
L. Siddon
An excellent monthly price and admin charge from NCD. I searched a lot of companies and they came out the best. On top of this, the service has been excellent, very helpful staff and when I told them I was hiring a car to go away, they pushed the delivery of my new vehicle through so I didn't have to. This is my first experience of leasing and it has been easy. I cannot see any reason why I would not stick with them through many more years of motoring.
S. Hill
A big thank you too Mark, a very professional service and the only guy who took the time too follow up quotes when competitors did not.
G. Humble
very good, would use again.
N. Line

D. Burns
I would recommend New Car Deals to anyone. They offered the best price that I could find and conducted their part of the overall transaction with efficiency and concern. Though the Manufacturer's distribution system managed to lose my car they did everything that the could to rescue the situation. All is now happily resolved and I am the proud owner of a very good value 'car of the year 2015' Well Done
C. Warwick
This is a nice company to deal with. The ordering process was seemless and everything was made very easy by the people that I dealt with from ordering to delivery and after service. Would recommend this company to everyone.
S. Grimes
Absolutely fantastic. Great Deal and great customer service. Took just under a week from signing paperwork to receiving the car.
R. Hill

S. Mace
An excellent company to deal with. They were very attentive and helpful. We would be very happy to recommend to other customers who are new to personal contract hire as we were. Excellent service and we will be using them again. Would also like to add that Mark Coulson was extremely good and was the deciding factor in proceeding with this company his attention to detail and ensuring we were kept informed at every step of the way , helped us on the way to having our lovely C1.
B. Farmer
Having been looking around for a while and contacted numerous leasing companies, New Car Deals were certainly the best in terms of coming back with a competitive quote, getting the car I wanted within the quickest timeframes and making the whole process from start to finish very easy indeed. Cant recommend them highly enough.
W. Ray
As promised I received my A3 on the second of March and absolutely love it! Just wanted to say a big thank you to all the staff at New car deals for making everything so easy for me to be able to get my dream car. Would definitely recommend to a friend and have already done so! Thanks again
R. O'Neill
Have just taken delivery of my new Citroen Cactus. Looks fantastic , everything has gone through smoothly and the delivery guy even cleaned it on our drive.....super
N. Dore
I recently signed for my next Mercedes C Class Coupe Premium Plus edition. Very happy with the deal agreed, understanding that it was the market best price. Interactions with Mark, Karen and Paul were first rate. It is quite evident that the company is 'family' themed with each advisor understanding exactly how to treat clients with respect, thoughtfulness and kindness, something simply not apparent from many other brokers. Can't fault their process and would recommend any day of the week. The information contained in the 'about us' section of their website is quickly apparent during conversation. Thank you.
A. Covill
Well what can I say other than PERFECT. Mark has been excellent in providing me with all the options available and arranging the car for when I wanted it. I asked a thousand questions and was dealt with courteously and with thorough information. The staff arranging the finance were brilliant and so quick to deal with. I had a really good look around at other providers but New Car Deals were the most competitive and from my experience the easiest to deal with. I am never buying a car again and will return to these lovely set of people again.
W. Bent
Mercedes C Class Coupe Excellent value package first prompted my interest/enquiry which was followed up quickly by Mark Coulson. Concise no-nonsense and very prompt presentation and follow up call on quotation. Follow up delivery arrangements and Customer support from Karen Beck was superb. Date of delivery was exactly as I requested with follow up documentation received promptly again from Karen. I required the vehicle quickly pending lengthy overseas business trips and all my requirements were met. I would thoroughly recommend New Car Deals.

At first I was a little apprehensive with dealing with a company on line especially with a large order of this nature, but was soon more relaxed when things progressed a little in particular as no large sums of money was exchanging hands. Mark was very professional all the way through the ordering process, weekly process reports etc were received by Karen Sara Nancy and all the staff involved.A really big thankyou to all and last of all I am delighted with my new Evoque.
M. Waddington
I can't fault the service that I received from Mark, Karen and others. They always contacted me when they said they would, they replied promptly on any questions I had and they kept me fully informed over the process of getting my vehicle. Have already recommened them to colleagues.
S. Treadwell
Thanks to Mark and the team for a great service. I was kept informed on a weekly basis as to when I would receive my car and I couldn't be happier. I have never had the pleasure of driving a brand new car and I'm loving it!
K. Hewson
Excellent service throughout the process. Mark kept me upto date all the way as did Nancy with the delivery dates. My daughter was over the moon when she saw it (21st Birthday) A big thankyou all round.

D. Lloyd
I have been leasing cars privately for the past 15 years. My experience with New Car Deals has been faultless, professional and efficient, There have been no negatives in my experience. The vehicle itself has more than met our expectations, and the deal is excellent value for money. I will certainly look for another car with them when the term expires.
S. Holmes
Really impressed by New Car Deals - often when you find what you want at the cheapest price available there seems to be a catch, but with New Car Deals we have found that the price was great and the service was excellent. Mark provided us with quotes for all variants of model with extras combined with mileages and maintenance packages, and once we had tailored the deal specifically to what we wanted then Karen, Joanne and Nancy kept us informed about where we were in the process. Even the chap who delivered the car was nice. We recommend New Car Deals on to our friends, confident that the service we received will be replicated. Great car, great deal and really nice people to deal with.
D. Warren
After receiving my second vehicle through New Car Deals I would like to say a big thank you for a great service. Communication was excellent, accurate and informative. Both vehicles were exactly as described and delivered at a time convenient to me. I can highly recommend these guys to anyone.
P Martin
The car is amazing. Thank you. I will see you again in 3 years for my next one.
A. Murley
This has been our first experience of leasing a car and newcardeals were excellent in always keeping us informed and answering any questions we had straight away. We have every confidence that we will continue to lease through newcardeals for many years to come.
A. Pearce
From the moment I went on the easy to use web site through to the moment the car arrived I was impressed. The service was first rate and these days that is rare indeed. Karen was the person who oversaw the whole thing. She was a pleasure to deal with and kept me properly informed at every stage. I would commend this service to anyone.You could not do better.
A. Roxborough
Everyone at New Car Deals, from Mark who 'sold' me the vehicle to Nancy, Karen and Gerry who delivered the vehicle have been fantastic. Customer Service was excellent, this was my first lease vehicle but all my questions were answered quickly and clearly meaning I felt confident and comfortable. I would (and will!) recommend them to anyone.
L. Gramlick
Thanks for the professional, friendly service.
C. John
I have just recieved delivery of my new Hyundai IX35 from New Car Deals and thought i would share my experience. From my initial enquiry, to placing my order right through to taking delivery of the vehicle, every detail was handle very professionally and most importantly there were no hiccups. I was frequently updated as to when i would expect delivery of the vehicle and even had a call 24 hrs in advance with the exact time of delivery. The staff are all friendly and very polite and i would have no problem recommending the company to my friends and family.
B. Lawrie

A. Standen
'I have nothing but praise for Paul and New Car Deals following my recent business with them. Emails were responded to at all hours and nothing was too much trouble to explain. Having tried several other 'big' companies I can honestly say Newcardeals were particularly easy to use, and on top of that the price was spot on as well.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for a replacement contract or for those tired of uncertain future values/trade-in unpleasantries and dipping their toes in the Personal Contract world for the first time.'

Editor's Summary
As the president of the newly renamed Association for Information Science & Technology, Dillon recognizes critical behind-the-scenes work being done to improve ASIS&T from the inside out. The Task Force on Web Presence will develop a plan to enhance internal communications and to keep information current and easy to find. Developing a moderated discussion forum on information will help solidify the organizations position as a thought leader. An information resource on what information professionals do will help define the field for public viewers and solicit thoughts on careers and opportunities. Recognizing the value of volunteer involvement, input and assistance, Dillon invites all ASIS&T members to participate actively at this turning point for the global association.

2013 ASIS&T President
Dean and Professor
School of Information
University of Texas at Austin
Welcome to the first column by a president of the Association for Information Science & Technology. Since the last issue of the Bulletin, the name change has become official and while it will take a few more steps to complete the changes on every listing and publication, I suspect the greater challenge will be for all of us to get used to uttering the new name without hesitation. We are still ASIS&T, of course, but it will take time for us to unpack the acronym automatically. Regardless, this is a landmark event in the history of our society now association and it represents true recognition of our international nature.
While the name change has occupied much of our collective, public discussion over the last few months, several other important projects are afoot within ASIS&T. Primary among these is the work of Diane Neals Task Force on Web Presence, which is charged with examining the ASIS&T website, as well as our use of social media and online communication tools. The goal is to recommend to the Board a plan to improve the delivery and use of online resources for all members. ASIS&T has successfully launched a webinar program, but the view of many members is that our website is not always current, that information needed for the effective organization of committees, chapters and SIGs can be difficult to find and that as a leading information association, we do not make the best use of available tools and resources to reach and serve our members. Obviously, no one plan can solve everything, and it is clear that there will be non-trivial costs involved but we must address these issues. If you have views on these issues, be sure to let me know.
One area where I believe ASIS&T needs to take the lead is in the provision of an appropriately moderated discussion forum for information ideas. If, like me, you subscribe to other lists in this field, you are probably tired of the endless puff pieces or announcements of events and talks that you could not possibly attend, which seemingly make up the majority of traffic on such lists. Yet when I attend a conference or meet up with colleagues from other programs, the conversations we fall into tend to be far more compelling, detailed and relevant than what appears online. It has always been a desire of mine to participate in a thoughtful, informative discussion group for our field, and I believe ASIS&T should take the lead in providing one. The best lists I know are invitation-only, heavily moderated and somewhat private. I understand why these work as they do, but I would much rather have ours be open and give us the ability to conduct year-round conversations and idea-sharing discussions that characterize the best conference experiences. After all, its hard to be a thought leader if you dont share your thoughts, and within ASIS&T we should provide the means to do so.
Another initiative worth attention is the work started by past president Diane Sonnenwald to create a new resource for information professionals that would serve as point of reference outlining the range of careers and opportunities for people interested our field. ASIS&T is taking the lead in helping to shape broader understanding of the information profession and has reached out to other relevant groups and professional associations for potential partnership. Again, this proposition is possibly expensive, but one has to wonder why, in 2013, our profession is so poorly understood. Do a search on information professional and take a moment to read the results. Is this you? One website will not provide all the answers, but if we can address this matter constructively, in partnership or on our own, it would be progress.
All this activity tends to go on behind the scenes, but it speaks to the essence of making our society more interactive, more publicly engaged and more communicative. We are a volunteer organization, and if you want to be part of the improvements, you need to participate actively. I have been impressed so far in my presidency by the willingness of so many to step up, but we are always seeking input and assistance, so please dont wait to be asked. Not sure where to start? Try a local chapter or a SIG or send me a line. The future of all professional associations is unclear at this time as members seek increased value and return for their dues. For ASIS&T, this is a moment of opportunity to ensure our status as a defining voice in the world of information. Get involved.

SEATTLE — March 1, 2011 — Despite the fact that colon cancer screening saves lives, the majority of U.S. adults age 50 and over who are eligible for such screening fail to take advantage of it. Consider the numbers: In 2000, only 16.3 million of 80 million eligible adults (about 20 percent) received colon cancer screening such as the fecal occult blood test (the most popular choice), sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy.
While each form of colon cancer screening has its advantages and disadvantages, people are often squeamish about anything having do with the subject,
"The important thing is to do at least one of the tests once you reach age 50," said William Grady, M.D., a colorectal cancer specialist at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and member of the Clinical Research Division at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.
While diet and exercise may play a role in preventing colon cancer, the most important way to prevent death from the disease is through early detection, Grady said. "This means regular colorectal cancer screening tests beginning at age 50 — earlier if you are at higher risk. If all colon-cancer cases were detected at their earliest stages, five-year overall survival rates would jump from 65 percent to 90 percent."
In honor of National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, this month the Hutchinson Center is reprising its "End Colon Cancer Now" awareness campaign that features a website containing information about screening and a quick test to assess your risk of colon cancer.
Grady and other screening advocates are adamant about colon cancer screening because even though it is preventable, it remains the second-leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. It is also one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the U.S., occurring more than 90 percent of the time in people age 50 and older.
Following is a summary of the currently available colon cancer screening tests:
- Fecal Occult Blood Test (FOBT): This is a safe and simple test and is most effective if done annually. It involves a take-home kit available from the doctor's office that tests for the presence of blood in the stool. The downside to FOBT is it is not specific to detecting cancer, just blood, which can be a symptom of colon cancer. FOBT has a high false-positive rate. If blood is detected in the stool, the patient will be referred for a sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy.
- Flexible sigmoidoscopy: Similar to a colonoscopy in that a flexible tube is inserted into the colon via the rectum. A scope looks for growths called polyps on the membrane wall; polyps can be precursors to cancer. Although this test only needs to be done once every five years, it does not examine the entire colon and does not have the ability to remove any polyps that are found.
- Colonoscopy: The current "gold standard" of screening tools, according to Grady, because it only needs to be done once every 10 years in people of normal risk. The scope examines the entire colon and contains a tool to painlessly remove polyps instantly. The downside is mostly the perception that preparing for the test and the exam itself are uncomfortable. However, the process of emptying the colon in advance of the test – taking a special laxative – can be done at home in two parts prior to coming to the clinic for the exam. Patients are usually sedated for the 15-30-minute colonoscopy itself and usually feel nothing.
- Newer, non-invasive high-tech tests are available, such as virtual colonoscopy and CT colonography, however, these radiological exams still require colon-cleansing preparations and cannot remove any polyps that are found.
- In the future, simple blood tests that can detect molecular markers for colon cancer will be available. Grady is a leading researcher in this area. Developing an effective blood test is important because it will greatly increase the rate of screening.
Persons with hereditary risk factors for colon cancer, such as first-degree relatives who had colon cancer, need to be screened earlier and perhaps more often, said Grady, who recommends that such patients talk to their doctor for screening recommendations.
Washington is among 27 states that mandate health insurance coverage of colon cancer screening, which helps to eliminate the financial obstacle to testing.

The Jeffrey Dahmer Files screening
The story of Jeffrey Dahmer is not for the faint of heart. However, if you're super bummed that Halloween only happens once a year, have already seen Silence of the Lambs like a bazillion times, and aren't completely creeped out by his Wikipedia entry, then you should totally go see the sort-of documentary, The Jeffrey Dahmer Files. Horrifying, disgusting and based on true events, the film pieces together archival footage, interviews and fictionalized scenarios to tell the story of people around Dahmer during the time of the serial killer/rapist/cannibal's arrest in 1991. Helpful hint: you might want to do dinner before the movie.

The correct answer to a great degree is to notice that Tyan makes a 2U riser card for the S2460,62, 66, 68, 69, called the M2039 With this card in use we have found Tyan to be VERY diligent about support for issues on it. Case in point: A customer of ours last year wanted to have 2466N-4M with a 4 port ethernet card ( DLink using 4 "tulip" chips", video, and we ran into some issues. Problem is the riser is essentially a PCI bridge. The DLink 4xNIC has a PCI bridge on it. IRQ conflicts occurred. The Tyan tech support spent a good amount of time to get the parts we were using, and solved the problems. Case closed, over 80 of those machines now filter traffic for Internap around the USA and the world. >We worked our way through various BIOS flashes, and have them running as >stably as possible (for us) now.

And with current BIOS, proper riser, and appropriate settings we see nothing comparable to that on 2466 and later. Frankly, the earlier AMD MP chipset found in the 2460 and 2462 is not as stable as the newer MPX, but in general it is not as bad as you imply. IMHO. >Tyan refused to own the riser problem OR the card problem. It was just >plain the fault of the card manufacturer, not theirs. Damn those >incompetent folks at 3com, anyway. Strange how they opted to use their >onboard chipset for the same device on the 2466. "The riser card problem" Meaning "somebody else's riser card problem", I presume? > > WOW. Thats amazing. We can run them without keyboards fine. Occasionally > > the BIOS is reset by as power flux or something like that, and yes > > you have to get out the video card and stuff, but thats a minor deal. We ran into this, and asked for a customized BIOS version with defaults to serial console, ignore VGA and keyboard errors, and they have complied. Perhaps they are more inclined to provide this support to their vendors than end users, I do not know.. Don't take me wrong, they are not perfect. However, when we run into issues they have always been good about solving them for us, anyway. Maybe it's my friendly face.. With our best regards, Maurice W.

European Union Internal Market Commissioner Michel Barnier, the EU's top financial regulator, called on the French government to pursue its planned reforms despite the Commission allowing two more years to meet its budget deficit target.
Olli Rehn, the European monetary affairs commissioner, said on Friday France badly needed to unlock its growth potential and create jobs, adding Spain, Italy and the Netherlands as well as France - four of the euro zone's five largest economies - would remain in recession this year.
Continue Reading Below
France - which restated on Friday it would bring the deficit below 3 percent in 2014, only one year later than the original deadline - must pursue its retirement and labor reforms to boost its competitiveness and to overcome its unemployment crisis, Barnier said.
"It's a moment of truth for the government which needs to have the political courage to carry out those reforms which will sometimes not be understood, and require effort," he told French radio Europe 1 in an interview.
EU finance ministers had given France until this year to bring down its budget shortfall below 3 percent of GDP and set the deadline for Spain for 2014. But while France expects its economy to expand by 0.1 percent this year, the European Commission forecast a 0.1 percent contraction.
Granting more time is a victory for French President Francois Hollande, who won elections promising a focus on growth and less on austerity but has little to show for his economic policies after a year in office.

If Teri Hatcher could snag a few items from her own celebrity yard sale, they would include a cashmere sweater from Ellen DeGeneres' closet and a pair of "really sexy" high heels from "Modern Family" star Julie Bowen.
"Hollywood is definitely a generous community," the "Desperate Housewives" actress said of the stars — from Al Pacino to Gwen Stefani — who donated to her Juvenile Arthritis Assn. fundraiser at the Americana at Brand Saturday. "And everybody likes a yard sale."
PHOTOS: Yard sale at Americana at Brand hosted by Teri Hatcher
While shoppers could bid on a signed portrait of Jason Alexander in his underpants in a cracked frame or peruse booths selling cupcakes and designer clothes, there were no old lampshades or hand-me-down dishware. At a similar event last year, Hatcher raised roughly $50,000 for the charity, which she said is in need of publicity and donations.
"That's why I'm doing this," she said, "to bring it out of obscurity because it's not obscure." Hatcher noted that most people associate arthritis with the elderly, but 300,000 children in the U.S. suffer from the disease, which can cause stiff joints and altered bone growth.
Some with juvenile arthritis can't play soccer or hold a pencil and must get painful shots, Hatcher said.
Fans flocked to Hatcher, who was wearing a short white and brown sundress and khaki booties, asking for photographs. While there were many who wanted her to sign photos of her and her "Desperate Housewives" co-stars, she had a strong contingent of "Lois & Clark" fans bidding for her attention, too. One of the first items to be snatched up was a package of swag from the 1990s TV show about a young Superman, including a large poster of her as love interest Lois Lane with co-star Dean Cain.
Other items up for grabs included a Lakers sneaker signed by Pau Gasol, a bright yellow Hobo clutch signed by Eva Mendes and a Jimmy Kimmel headshot that he signed under the greeting, "Good Times."
Hatcher was inspired to support the Juvenile Arthritis Assn. after meeting a child who suffered from it a few years ago at a triathlon for Children's Hospital Los Angeles. The girl's father had written Hatcher a touching letter, which made her want to meet the family. Doing so prompted her to get more involved in raising money for the auto-immune disease.
"I knew we needed to take this on," Hatcher said. "It's a really horrible disease."

mang05 needed a new print or packaging design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 22 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
Donny and Tammy
We are a real estate team working in a metropolis, and we're looking for an edge. We do plenty of condo and loft sales, as well as traditional houses and businesses. We're young and hip, and we need our marketing materials to reflect that.
We've been steadily growing over the past couple of years and we're looking to expand our business with the use of marketing and advertising material.
This piece of creative genius you are creating will be used to target clients looking to list their home for sale. They would typically not be getting any kind of material when they've started thinking of selling. And once we're contacted, we'll be sending them this "Pre-Listing Package" before we make our first visit to their home.
We are looking to create a "Pre-Listing Package" that will contain 10 pages (back to back, so 5 pages in print). 8x10 folded is perfect. So each page will be 8x5, with staples in the middle. 1 page is fine for first submission.
Page content (which will change both during this contest, and after the contest closes - so we'll need to be able to manage that) can be found at http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0A…aGc5&hl=en
The package will look professional and will reflect us. Each page should have the same general look and feel, but should be unique enough or specific enough to reflect the content of that page. For example, on the "Testimonials" page, maybe faux post-it notes for each testimonial? The checklist page will just have designs on the border, to accommodate the amount of text. Etc..
We're looking at using black, grey, silver, red and white as our colour scheme. There should be a mostly white background. We want it to be easy to read.
Take a look at http://www.donnymangos.com/ads/16sammon.jpg for examples of our current design scheme. We're moving away from the brown/orange and going to the new colours.
We'd like to keep our "name logo" design.
There will almost certainly be more work to come for the winner - we'd just like to build on the design that we come up with here with different marketing materials.

text: On Wed, Feb 19, 2003 at 01:30:22PM +0000, Simon Hogg's all... > Is there a rough rule of thumb which dictates when a program (if ever) > shows superscaling with number of nodes. Of course, I would not expect > this to carry on ad infinitum, but does anyone see superscalar behaviour up > to, a certain number of nodes. > > What would be the conditions for this to occur? I've seen this with the Gromacs benchmark d.dppc job (specifically) on dual Thunderbirds. Now, it may well happen on other CPUs but I havent run the job on them (I suspect it would be true for similar speed (1.33GHz) MPs for eg but once things get faster the characteristics may change and superscaling may disappear). For example, due to the nature of the Xeon's setup, a quad Xeon 2.2Ghz, probably of an older mobo architecture with a lack of memory bandwidth did NOT display this effect with the same job. Now this may also be because of the Xeon's much larger cache(s) on die, which means the job runs completely in cache even on one cpu alone, and thus two CPUs would slow things down. (It is true that one CPU ran the job about 1.6 times faster than a single 1.33GHz Tbird). (Furthremore, I am not sure if it was in hyperthreading mode, now that I think back -- was I really using two physical CPUs?) I suspect that having the split dataset fit within the cache when it doesnt fit in one cpu's cache in entirety, and not thrashing the caches, is what's critical. Furthremore, I never saw this effect for smaller or larger jobs I tested in Gromacs on that particular cluster. (I didnt tweak any of the jobs to find the threshhold of where this effect stops either, which might be an interesting thing.) Also of note is that the scaling behaviour went away as soon as I got away from shared memory as the 'interconnect' - once it went onto the network (4+ cpus), things slowed down drastically. /kc > > Simon > > _______________________________________________ > Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf at beowulf.org > To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf -- Ken Chase, math at velocet.ca * Velocet Communications Inc. * Toronto, CANADA

I've become engrossed in the new book, A World in HDR by Trey Ratcliff, and am now infatuated with HDR photography! Below I'll show just a few examples of what can be accomplished using this technique.
High Dynamic Range Imaging is a relatively new technique that allows you to portray a much greater range of tonal detail than a given camera could capture in a single photo. Utilizing technique and leveraging the merge to HDR feature in Photoshop can help you make the most of your photography experience.
HDR at its best
As shown above, the works of Ruben Seabra, at his Flickr photostream (atrium09). This is one photographer who best illustrates some of the awe-inspiring work you can create using HDR technologies. Unfortunately, Ruben doesn't tell us much about himself, as is typical of Flickr artists.

It's HDR Photography
In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) is a set of techniques that allow a greater dynamic range of luminances between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wider dynamic range allows HDR images to more accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight.
You can learn a lot more about high dynamic range Photography at the Wikipedia. And if this dramatic technique appeals to you, then I highly recommend A World in HDR where photography expert Trey Ratcliff shows you just about everything you need to know about this wonderful technique. A unique blend of practical and inspirational, this book features a breathtaking collection of HDR photographs along with engaging explanations of how Trey achieved the image. You'll also get foolproof HDR tutorial and software recommendations -- which is essential if you're going to get it right.
thanks for reading

Living the Yoga Sutras
Paperback, 270 Pages
Price: $25.00
Prints in 3-5 business days
(8 1/2 x 11, B&W, 270 pages) For quite a few years people have been asking me about having a printed copy of the Yoga Sutras pages on the SwamiJ.com website. Because of the print-on-demand technology provided by Lulu.com, this is now available. This "book" is virtually a copy and paste of the pages from the website. There has been some slight reformatting to make things fit well, but it is basically identical to the website. From time to time I will likely update this "book" as the website is updated. I sincerely hope that you find this useful in your journey of meditation. I have attempted to make the translations and descriptions as practical as possible so that you may easily incorporate the principles into your daily meditation practice. In loving service, Swami J (Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati)

So it begins… Tuesday, I hit the ground in New Orleans, after waking up at too-early-o-clock for my flight. After an exhausting morning of travel, I checked in to the Monteleone and came down shortly after for my first drink at the Carousel Bar, a Sazerac.
In short order, I met up with the ladies of LUPEC Boston, who aren't normally as fuzzy as Pink Lady is, here:
They were off to Coop's Place for lunch, and asked me to join them.
Soon, the Pacific Northwest fell upon us, with a stray Texan in tow.
(That's Paul Clarke facing away, Rocky Yeh facing toward, John the Bastard facing away, and stray Texan Mindy Kucan facing toward, marking her Twitter handle–@drinkswmindy–on her arm.)
Later, it was off to d.b.a. for the Tuesday Tasting. Organized by Jake Parrott, the tasting is a venue in which anyone interested can bring a sample bottle of some obscure booze, whether found in your grandma's private closet or made at home.
