Corsair Neutron Series GTX SSD Firmware Testing ResultsPublished on 05/14/2013
By Mike Clements
Built for speed.You probably already know that solid-state drives are fast. With up to 85,000 IOPS and read speeds of up to 555MB/s, Force Series™ GT is on another level. There's fast, and then there's fast. Force Series™ 3 SSDs have even quicker read and write times when they're installed in PCs that use the latest SATA 3 6Gb/s interface.
You probably already know that solid-state drives are fast. With up to 85,000 IOPS and read speeds of up to 555MB/s, Force Series GT is on another level. Whether you're building the ultimate gaming PC, a monster of a video or photo editing workstation, or you simply crave serious solid state storage performance, this is the SSD you want.
All the impressive performance numbers translate to this: disk operations up to four times faster than the fastest mechanical hard drives. Starting up your PC, launching applications, loading and saving large files and documents, and just about everything else you do with your PC is faster when you remove the bottleneck of old-fashioned hard drives.
The Force Series GT is particularly adept at moving compressed data. You'll appreciate this real-world benefit if you work with music, movie and graphics files.
Haven't yet moved to SATA 3? Like all Corsair components, Force Series GT SSDs are designed to last through several system upgrades. Adding a Force Series GT today means that you'll still get incredible storage performance now, and you'll tap into its full performance potential with your next upgrade.
Force Series GT SSDs feature support for the Windows® 7 TRIM command. This allows them to store only the data they need and perform memory optimization to ensure the fastest possible write speeds.
Because SSDs have no moving parts, they can handle shock, vibration and temperature changes far in excess of traditional hard drives. That's important for desktop PCs, and essential for notebooks.
Traditional mechanical hard drives spin at thousands of revolutions per minute. This takes power, and generates noise and heat. Since SSDs have no moving parts, there's no noise or vibration, and the lower power consumption helps keep things cool inside your PC.
The 2.5" form factor allows for installation in most notebook PCs with no adapter required. If you're adding a Force Series GT SSD to your desktop PC, use the included 3.5" adapter to mount it in any standard hard drive bay.
Much has been written about overprovisioning and its implementation on SSDs. In short, overprovisioning, or OP, is a portion of storage space on an SSD that is reserved for use only by the SSD controller. The three most common uses for this space are wear leveling, the replacement of bad blocks, and read-modify-writes. Overprovisioning serves to help increase both the longevity and performance of SSDs and it is a very common practice among SSD manufacturers.
However, some users would like to be able to buy their SSDs without the built in overprovisioning and make the decision to OP, or not to OP for themselves. They prefer the flexibility of deciding for themselves when to OP and how much space to use based on their specific needs. Corsair has announced and is now offering SSDs without this overprovisioned space.
Corsair SSDs with overprovisioning space typically have used 7% of the total SSD storage capacity. This means that users now have a choice with these new drives to use them with or without overprovisioning. Users can manually overprovision the drives if they wish or, they can leave them at their full capacity with no overprovisioning and enjoy the extra space.
For users of 256GB SSDs, this means they can have an extra 16GB of storage capacity on their drive over the equivalent 240GB overprovisioned SSD. Of course, RAID users will benefit even more as the number of drives is increased.
In reading some of that aforementioned information about overprovisioning, I've found a great deal of very useful information over at Anandtech. Here's a diagram from one of Anand's SSD articles highlighting how overprovisioning works.
Our initial offerings in the non-OP drive arena are in the Force Series GS and the Neutron Series with more to come. For more information on our SSD lineup, please visit our Corsair website SSD page.
To OP, or not to OP. That is the question. Whether tis nobler to the PC performance...
Corsair proudly brings you the Corsair SSD Toolbox. This helpful utility provides users with several powerful and useful tools for use with Corsair SSDs. Let's take a look. Download the Corsair SSD Toolbox HERE.
The Corsair SSD Toolbox will run on:
We have provided a detailed help file which can be accessed by clicking on the question mark symbol shown here circled in red on the upper left side of the screen.
After you select firmware update the tool will scan your drive and check for firmware updates. If there is an update available, the dialogue will prompt you to update the firmware or cancel the operation.
Note: Firmware updates can only be executed when the SSD controller is in AHCI mode. Firmware updating via this toolbox is enabled for The Corsair Series Force 3, Force Series GT, Force Series GS, Neutron Series, and Neutron Series GTX SSDs. Earlier and EOL Corsair drives with firmware updates can be updated manually using the tools supplied on our website.
Note: Corsair recommends that users update their OS drive as attached storage when possible. Some systems will require the SSD to be disconnected briefly before the new firmware version will appear in the Drive Information window.
Additional functions can be activated with the column of buttons down the left side of the toolbox. Corsair is now producing SSDs that do not have factory overprovisioning. For users that desire to manually overprovision their drives, we have provided a function for this. Overprovisioning your drive can contribute to maintaining better performance and adding longevity to your SSD.

When to Delegate
Delegating tasks and responsibility is a vital component of time management. The primary reason most people delegate is to decrease their workload, which enables them to focus on other tasks and responsibilities. Other reasons to delegate include improved staff satisfaction, better ability to get an increased amount of work done, and faster career growth for the supervisor and the employee who completes the project. Not only does the supervisor's workload decrease, but his staff members also have the opportunity to advance. When delegation is effective, the entire team and the business itself can succeed.
Project Worksheet
I. Are you delegating enough?
Delegation is the administrative technique in which supervisors give their immediate subordinates the authority to accomplish an assigned task. To determine if you are delegating enough work, ask yourself this question: "Could the company get along without me if I had to be away for three months?"
If you answered yes, then you are doing a great job delegating. If you're still not sure, try the following quiz to assess if you are delegating enough or effectively.
|QUIZ: Are you delegating enough or
Answer these simple questions to see where you stand.
If you answer yes to more than five of the questions, you're not delegating enough!
Why do people choose not to delegate?
Contrary to popular belief, delegation does not mean you have to give up control. Entrepreneurs or business owners may find it difficult and scary to give up some control of projects, or they may lack knowledge about the art of delegation. Other reasons people fail to delegate include:
What you can delegate
There is a litany of tasks you can delegate, including:
What not to delegate
In most cases, the following activities should not be delegated to others because they require the expertise of experienced managers:
Back to Outline
II. Who should you delegate to?
When delegating, it is important to select the right person for the job. Don't delegate to the first person you think of or the staff member who consistently receives delegated tasks because of their previous performance. Many staff members have untapped abilities that must be discovered and cultivated. The employee's skills and personality style must match the assignment. For example, if the job requires training the staff on new company policies, the individual must buy into the project and have effective teaching skills.
It is easy to fall into the habit of delegating to one or two key individuals in your department. This practice will not only frustrate the individuals but other employees, and may cause morale problems.
Specific factors to consider when selecting the appropriate individual are:
For junior staff members, start by delegating assignments that can be broken down into parts, each with a separate deadline and end result. Their initial projects should be less difficult than the tasks you assign to senior level staff, and they should be provided with some latitude and allowed a certain degree of freedom to complete their delegated assignments.
It may be helpful to keep records or a dossier on your staff members that delineate their strengths and weaknesses, other projects they are working on, special skills and notes from prior assignments. An employee who had difficulty with a previously delegated project may or may not have difficulty with future projects. Both the employee and supervisor need to reflect on the past assignment. The prior project may have a mismatch of abilities or the employee did not realize the limits of her authority.
Mentoring is a critical component of the delegation process. This can be done by you or a key individual in your department with a strong track record.
In the education industry, Jere Brophy is recognized for the concept of TESA - Teacher Expectations, Student Achievement. The concept is simple. If a teacher enters a school year knowing ahead of time that one of his students misbehaves and is lagging behind his classmates academically, the teacher will expect poor performance from that student. This same concept can be applied to delegation as Employer's Expectations, Employee's Achievement (EEEA). By using this line of reasoning, employees will rise to your level of expectation for them.
Back to Outline
III. Prepare for delegating
Before you communicate anything about the project to your staff, you need to define the specifics of the project. Key points that you will need to discuss when delegating a project include:
There are many issues to address with the employee who is assigned a delegated task. Brown says that the key to delegation is that the employee understands the expectations and keeps you informed about decisions before they are finalized. To clearly delineate your expectations and other details of the project, complete the Project Worksheet below. It will help define your expectations, enhance your ability to track the project, and improve your communication to your staff.
Keep in mind that dumping a project or task onto a staff member is not the same as delegating. Teaching your staff to take initiative by setting an example is a valuable lesson. For example, many people on your staff may readily volunteer to clean up a messy work area if you show no qualms about cleaning up the mess yourself. Not only does this demonstrate respect but a willingness to also do the dirty work.
Back to Outline
IV. Communicate with designated employee through a meeting
A formal meeting, not an impromptu discussion, should be scheduled with the staff member who will be taking on a new task. Some key things to consider when communicating the project are:
Using a written project delegation sheet, like the one shown below, may enhance the employee's understanding of the project and clarify the delegated task for you, as well.
Project Title:
Background Information:
Start Date:
Completion Date:
Responsibility Level:
Resources Available: Staff
Monetary Support
Special Training
Next Meeting:
Some rules of thumb for delegating include:
As long as you are honest and open in communicating with the employee, the delegation of a project should work effectively.
Back to Outline
V. Meet and Communicate Regularly
Schedule regular meetings with your employee to discuss the project. You must take the time to meet with staff and assess the status of the project. With junior staff, it is critical to schedule deadlines for various parts of the project. The checkpoints enable you to monitor progression of the project and allow you to provide guidance and direction.
Mentoring staff members through project completion may be critical for junior-level staff or when attempting to foster skills in other staff members. Being flexible, asking the right questions, and providing direction and guidance in a non-judgmental fashion will strengthen your managerial skills. This will improve the individual's skills, heighten morale, provide staff with a sense of ownership, and empower staff to be more proactive and creative.
Back to Outline
VI. Assess the Results and the Employee's Performance and Communicate
Completion of the project is not the final step in the delegation process. The process is complete only after the staff member and supervisor privately reflect and discuss the following:
The above should be discussed between the employee and supervisor who delegated the activity. The supervisor should ask probing open-ended questions, rather than closed questions which require a single word response. From this, the supervisor can adjust their delegation skills for future endeavors. Don't expect everything to go smoothly. Remember, there is always room for improvement.
Back to Outline
VII. Demonstrate Appreciation
It's critical for the employee who does a good job to receive recognition for his or her work. This can be done numerous ways, including recognizing their efforts through a newsletter, at a staff meeting, via a computer bulletin board system or an actual bulletin board in a common area. More substantial recognition may include a bonus check or a raise. This will vary from company to company but the key is recognition for a job well done.
By celebrating the success of an employee, they'll want to do even better next time. Through effective delegation, communication and demonstration of appreciation, your staff will be empowered to present new ideas to you, which again results in success for all parties involved.
Back to Outline
VIII. Summary
Although communication is essential, it alone cannot determine what should be delegated, to whom at what times. Delegation requires courage and commitment, and mistakes are anticipated.

Where printing a book has never been easier!
Short-run book company credits digital printing, Web for 43% increase
By TROY L. SMITH
(Rochester Business Journal - Rochester, NY, June 15, 2012) Book1One, a Rochester-based short-run book manufacturer, has increased its revenue by an average of 36 percent annually for the past three years, capitalizing on a rise in self-publishing.
Book1One is a subsidiary of the Riverside Group, a full-service post-press company in Rochester. Peter Pape, president and CEO of both the Riverside Group and Book1One, said Book1One's sales grew 43 percent in 2011, setting a company record.
The overwhelming majority of Book1One's business comes from authors who are self-publishing, a practice that has become more popular and cost-effective because of digital printing and the Internet, Pape said. R.R. Bowker LLC, the official U.S. issuer of International Standard Book Numbers, reported that more than 211,000 self-published books were released in the United States in 2011, nearly double the number in 2010.
"Some years ago, if you wanted to self-publish a book, you had to lay out a considerable amount of money for printing processes," said Steven Huff, director of adult programs at Writers & Books Inc. "Today, anybody can just go on online and upload your book. We see more people at Writers & Books coming in with their self-published books, wanting to put them in our bookstore. It's the combination of digital printing of hard-copy books and Internet publishing that has made self-publishing more common."
George Kittredge, marketing director for Book1One, attributes the company's growth to greater interest in self-publishing and the services the company offers. While mainstream self-publishing websites such as Lulu.com or Blurb.com offer a full range of publishing services such as design, e-commerce and third-party distribution, Book1One offers the basics. Kittredge said the majority of Book1One's orders are for fewer than 1,000 copies, and a customer can order a single book.
The company prints, binds and ships books to the customer, leaving the author with full copyright. Book1One's online price calculator indicates that for a typical novel of some 250 pages, a customer would pay slightly more than $9 per softcover book for 100 copies and a bit less than $8 each for 1,000 copies. For hardcover, the price would be slightly more than $11.50 each for 1,000 books and more than $16.80 each for 100 copies. Prices also are affected by features such as color pages and a particular type of cover."For people who want the full suite of publishing, the services offered by larger online companies can be valuable," Kittredge said. "But most of our customers aren't interested in mass retail. And for those who are, printing a short run can be a way to build a core customer base."
Pape came up with the idea for Book1One in 2005, when the Riverside Group began getting inquiries for orders under its minimum of 250 copies for binding service. "I started to see that there was an increasing need that we couldn't fill," he said. He assembled a team to figure out how the company could make money from printing one book. The answer was short-run, digital printing.
Book1One began taking short-run print orders that year. Back then, it outsourced the printing to other shops while handling the binding services itself.In 2008, Book1One bought a digital printer and began doing all printing and binding in-house. Pape said Book1One now accounts for some 25 percent of the business at the Riverside Group. Book1One has six employees.
Kittredge said the company's customers include people who want to print photography and technical books, students printing theses and dissertations and elementary schools printing yearbooks. Five out of six customers find Book1One through its website, he said. Most orders come from outside the Rochester area. "The popularity for self-publishing continues to grow, and it's becoming easier and easier," Kittredge said. "Everyone can be an author now."
Writers & Books' Huff said that while self-publishing saves money, it does put the burden of marketing on the author. "The gatekeepers in the publishing industry can be hard to get past," he said. "However, publishers do have a direct stream to booksellers. They can get your book out there. Without them, writers have to spend the time marketing their book,
rather than writing their next one."
Rochester resident Diana Perez self-published her first book, "A Conscious Spirit," through Indiana-based AuthorHouse.com, a brand of Author Solutions Inc., last August. The deal made the book available online through Amazon.com Inc. and the website of Barnes & Noble Inc., with AuthorHouse taking a percentage of the sales. She said it still takes great determination to write a book, but the process of self-publishing was relatively easy. "I think it definitely would have been harder 10 years ago," Perez said. "With the way the media and the Internet are now, everything is at your fingertips. I've met a lot of determined writers who want to get their work out there, and I point them towards self-publishing."
Still, with a larger number of writers, mainstream publishers have jumped on the self-publishing bandwagon, especially for e-books. Sales of e-books rose 117 percent last year, the Association of American Publishers reports.In 2010, Barnes & Noble launched Pub-It, a website that allows anyone to self-publish material using simple software. Amazon.com offers royalties of up to 70 percent to encourage writers to use its Kindle Direct Publishing system to self-publish e-books.Lulu.com reported that the number of self-published e-books on its website grew by 22 percent in 2011, while the number of self-published print books grew 9 percent.
Kittredge said Book1One does get orders from people who have self-published their books online but also want them in print format. However, neither he nor Pape seems worried about e-books cutting into Book1One's business. "I think we've seen that there will always be a demand for print books," Pape said. "Some of the things we print, like family photo books or commemorative books, aren't ideal in an e-book format, and print books will always make great gifts. As I like to say, people don't have bookshelves in their homes to put e-books on."

C# as a programming language is still young and has evolved nicely in the last few years: most of the new features take it closer to a high-level language, allowing shorter and nicer code for common patterns. A language needs to be able to cover a wide spectrum of usages to be considered mature but there is one side of the spectrum that has been neglected in C# for far too long: the low level side close to IL code.
Someone already hacked up a program that uses a preprocessor and ilasm to inject IL into C# code, but this approach has many drawbacks (too many to list them all here).
Inline IL code should integrate with the rest of the C# program as closely as possible, allowing, for example, to reference labels defined in C# code from branches in IL code or using the names of local variables and arguments for opcodes like ldloc and ldarg.
The proposal here is to allow IL code as a new statement in the form:
unsafe LITERAL_STRING;This is similar to the traditional way inline assembly has been done (gcc's __asm__ ("code") statement), it's very unlikely to clash with other possible uses of the unsafe keyword and also conveys the notion that IL code may break type safety, IL language rules etc. It has also the added property that all the code needed to implement this support could be easily copied in a separate library and used in standalone programs to, say, simplify code emission for Reflection.Emit (this inline IL support has been implemented inside the Mono C# compiler, so it's C# code that uses Reflection.Emit as the backend).
So, without further ado, the standard sample program written with inline IL:
class InlineIL { static void Main () { unsafe @" ldstr ""Hello, world!"" call void class [mscorlib]System.Console::WriteLine(string) "; } }Ok, that kind of code is written more easily in C# proper, so what about things that IL code can do, but that C# code can't? Ever wanted to be able to change the value of a boxed integer? In C# you can't, but this is very easy with inline IL:
static void ChangeInt (object intval, int new_value) { unsafe @" ldarg.0 unbox [mscorlib]System.Int32 ldarg.1 stind.i4 "; }The following code will print 2:
object boxed = 1; ChangeInt (boxed, 2); Console.WriteLine (boxed);Of course you can access types and fields defined by the C# program currently being compiled, consider the following example:
class InlineIL { static int field1; static void Main () { int localvar = 1; unsafe @" ldloc localvar stsfld int32 class InlineIL::field1 "; } }Note that in this case, the compiler won't emit warnings about field1 and localvar being never used and of course you'll get an error if you mispell the field name in IL code as you would in C# code.
The main usage of the new feature would be for some corlib methods in mono or for more easily implementing test cases for the JIT and runtime test suites: some specific IL code patterns (that may not be expressed in C# or that there is no guarantee C# will compile to the effecting code) can be easily written while the rest of the boilerplate code needed by the unit testing program can be written in much more readable C#. That said, this opens many possibilities for a creative hacker, finally free of the constraints of C#.
Happy hacking!

MilkmanDan reacted to a post in a topic: What's Wrong With Most Soul Winning Courses?
I'd be glad to reply but a. I must sleep, I work tonight and B. re read the OP. If you'd like start a new topic and we'll traverse that rocky path. R/S Br. Steve Gal. 2.
Irishman, Daniel I say this in the most loving manner I can muster. I pray you will forgive me. The bible makes it clear we must study (1st Tim. 2.15). These definitions are an egregious misuse of the scripture. Repentance takes on many meanings depending on the context in which it is written. For salvation repentance is, yes, a change in mind but also an amendment in behaviour. Look and see if I am infact wrong. Metanoeo, (3340 strong's/vines) is a change of mind that leads to an amendment in behavior. This word always points to a change for the better in the NT (except in Luke 17.3-4) and always of repentance from sin. To say that repentance means one thing alone is a grave error. More on the topic. Jack Schaap, is a man leaden with error. One preacher even stated that he confronted Schaap and asked him (my paraphrase) would you change if I could prove you wrong and Schaap said that he would not. For the record I have been to FBC hammond, HAC and even met Br. Schaap. He is a nice guy, pompous a bit, but in serious error and un-willing to change. I am sorry LuAnne, I had to comment on the blatant and egregious misuse of scripture. Respectfully Submitted, Br Steve Gal. 2.20

SBC really ought to know what happens with schools, especially with all the estates (council and private) that have been built here since the war.Houses are built, young couples buy them, there's a wave of kids going to primary then secondary school. People get older, school pupil numbers drop, people retire/move away. Then 40-50 years after the houses were first built young families buy them again, pupil numbers increase (but probably never to the original peak).Good quality temporary classrooms are available http://www.portableoffices.co.uk/content/3-Education-and-Training and when coupled with changes in school catchment areas some school building can be avoided.If the catchment areas of East Wichel, Lethbridge and Lawn primaries were tweaked and a few temporary classrooms used Croft School need never have been built.

Ground Water is critical to communities in southwest Ohio - for most, it is the only available source of water for residential, commercial, and industrial water needs. This reliance creates a special incentive
to protect valuable ground water resources in order to insure a clean, reliable source of water for continued community growth.
In 1991, seven major public, private, and industrial ground water producers in southern Butler and northern Hamilton Counties, Ohio, began working on a joint ground water protection program known as the Source Water Protection. The multi-jurisdictional, multiple supplier approach taken by Hamilton to New Baltimore Ground Water Consortium was one of Ohio's first.

The Best Law Firm SEO for Lawyers
Make it easy for clients to find you with Authority Solutions™ Law Firm SEO for Lawyers and Attorneys
America's Best SEO Services Company | Local Real Estate SEO Experts
Best SEO Company of Top SEO & Web Design & Marketing Experts, Providing Real Estate / Lawyer / Local Houston SEO Services, and SEO Solutions
Make it easy for clients to find you with Authority Solutions™ Law Firm SEO for Lawyers and Attorneys
SEO, short for Search Engine Optimization, is a digital marketing technique designed to increase search results made by users on popular search engines such as Google. SEO for Lawyers is a more specialized SEO strategy designed specifically for lawyers. It requires SEO skills of a highly trained marketing company with a vast understanding of SEO for lawyers. They have previously worked with many attorneys and law firms and realize how little knowledge most attorneys in relation to the specialized field of SEO marketing in general and more particularly, SEO for Lawyers.
Just think about it; when people are in need of an attorney, they are usually in a crisis. They may mention the matter to a family member or a friend. But what do people do when they really need a lawyer or an attorney right away? When the situation has grown more critical, they may need to take a different approach. So how at that point do they go about finding an attorney? Some do rely on referrals and recommendations from other family members, colleagues or friends who may have used a specific law firm in the past. However, those who do not have the luxury of having referrals must rely on their own resources, due diligence and research. Having said that, it is pretty practical to suspect that most turn to the one source that billions of others use when they are in immediate need of a product or service, and that source is the Internet— Google to be more specific. The Internet is known for supplying more than enough options to choose from when performing an online search as a result of SEO. In fact, more and more people are relying on the Internet to search for law firms near their local area. This is done using keyword-rich SEO law terms and phrases. What that means is that if you are a lawyer who is not ranked at or near the top of the SEO search results, it is highly unlikely that you will be considered for an office visit or a phone call. Regardless of how much training or accolades you may have that is associated with your legal accomplishments, if you cannot be found online due to poor optimization, then you will likely not be contacted and considered for legal services.
That is why it is important for lawyers and attorneys to have proper optimization with the appropriate keyword terms and phrases used by most people when they are searching for legal services in your area. Otherwise, you will not be part of the SEO process and be easily found when being searched for. In fact, that business opportunity will likely go right over to your competitor.
Like most of our legal clients, we are confident in your legal expertise and abilities. Authority Solutions™ believes that you, as lawyers, are highly capable of solving legal matters in your field of specialty. However, concerning matters associated with SEO, like the legal field, you would require the skills of an expert too. That is where Authority Solutions™ can step in and help. We can assign a highly qualified digital marketing expert that will be designated to your specific law firm, to put your company right at the top of the search results page. That way, you can easily be seen by people searching for legal services in your area.
As an established Houston-based SEO expert, Authority Solutions™ specializes in SEO for lawyers and attorneys and we are confident that with our services, you will see an increase in the search results for your law firm as well. Our services, SEO for lawyers, have proven to be highly effective. We only use up-to-date techniques and strategies to raise both your profile as lawyers and your ranking on the search engine's results page. And if you are concerned about whether these outcomes and claims are true, consider your own results when you searched for SEO experts and found us! Now Authority Solutions™ is ready, willing, and very much able to provide similar SEO services for lawyers.
We understand that your website is designed to promote your law firm, draw in new customers and convert them into paying customers.

The ultimate goal of Authority Solutions™ is to show legal professionals the various ways to make your Internet marketing and optimization campaign much more productive and effective, simply by allowing us to implement our proven marketing techniques. Based on our previous experience, we know that our marketing SEO for lawyers, attorneys and other legal professionals will not provide you with results right away. However, we do know that it will produce results over the long term, making it an effective optimization and marketing strategy with a proven long-term investment designed to generate more than adequate traffic to your website or designated landing page. We are also confident that that you will be very pleased with the marketing and optimization results. And because our optimization and marketing services are not considered to be fly-by-night, we hope that you are prepared to stick with your new SEO-based marketing campaign for lawyers for the long haul so that you can experience the fruit of our labor and generate an increased ROI.
We also understand that in implementing this type of approach, you will find that it is much more cost-effective as opposed to other forms of alternative strategies that claim short-term results. The implementation of our SEO for Lawyers will prove to be a highly valuable investment for many years to come, and we are positive that you will be pleased with the optimization and marketing services of Authority Solutions™ as your law firm gains more online exposure than you initially hoped for.
The bottom line is that if you want your law firm or practice to see tremendous results and grow, then you need to give some careful consideration to incorporating SEO for Lawyers into your ongoing online marketing strategy. Why? The answer is simple: it works! In fact, it is nothing worse than seeing attorneys invest years into their legal education and practice yet fail at securing clients on an ongoing basis. In order to see effective results, attorneys must realize and be sensitive to the fact that digital marketing has dominated the way in which companies generate more clients. Some of the late bloomers of optimization have witnessed the consequences of not taking digital marketing seriously and giving marketing strategies involving SEO for lawyers another look
Having established a website means being a part of the digital marketing industry. As professionals and business owners of today, you need to know the different digital platforms to take advantage of the benefits of mobile devices and everything that moves in the Internet (or World Wide Web). The year 2019 promises tougher competition across…

|United States
|Breed standards
Savannahs are about the size of a medium dog
|Feline hybrid (Felis catus × Leptailurus serval)
The Savannah is a hybrid cat breed. It is a cross between a serval and a domestic cat.[1][2][3]
The Savannah cat is the largest of the cat breeds. A Savannah cat is a cross between a Domestic cat and a serval, a medium-sized, large-eared wild African cat. The unusual cross became popular among breeders at the end of the 1990s, and in 2001 The International Cat Association (TICA) accepted it as a new registered breed. In May 2012, TICA accepted it as a championship breed.
Judee Frank crossbred a male serval, belonging to Suzi Woods, with a Siamese (domestic cat) to produce the first Savannah cat (named Savannah) on April 7, 1986.[4] In 1996, Patrick Kelley and Joyce Sroufe wrote the original version of the Savannah breed standard and presented it to the board of The International Cat Association. In 2001, the board accepted the breed for registration. The Savannah cat can come in different colors and patterns, however, The International Cat Association (TICA) breed standards only accept spotted patterns with certain colors and color combinations.
Physical features and breeding techniques[edit]
The Savannahs' tall and slim build give them the appearance of greater size than their actual weight. Size is very dependent on generation and sex, with F1 hybrid male cats usually being the largest.
F1 and F2 generations are usually the largest, due to the stronger genetic influence of the African serval ancestor. As with other hybrid cats such as the Chausie and Bengal cat, most first generation cats will possess many or all of the serval's exotic looking traits, while these traits often diminish in later generations. Male Savannahs tend to be larger than females.
Early-generation Savannahs can weigh 8–20 pounds (3.6–9.1 kg), with the most weight usually attributed to the F1 or F2 neutered males due to genetics. Later-generation Savannahs are usually between 7–15 pounds (3.2–6.8 kg). Because of the random factors in Savannah genetics, size can vary significantly, even in one litter.
The coat of a Savannah should have a spotted pattern, the only pattern accepted by the TICA breed standard.[5] The spotted pattern is the only accepted pattern because it is the only pattern found on the African Serval Cat. Non-standard patterns & colors include: Rosetted, marble, snow color (point), blue color, cinnamon color, chocolate color, lilac (lavender) and other diluted colors derived from domestic sources of cat coat genetics.
The International Cat Association (TICA) breed standard calls for brown-spotted tabby (cool to warm brown, tan or gold with black or dark brown spots), silver-spotted tabby (silver coat with black or dark grey spots), black (black with black spots), and black smoke (black-tipped silver with black spots) only.[5]
Domestic out-crosses from the early days in the 1990s have greatly impacted the breed's development in both desired and non-desired traits. As of 2012 most breeders perform Savannah to Savannah pairings; using out-crosses is considered less than desired. There are no longer any permitted domestic out-crosses for the Savannah breed now that TICA championship status has been achieved. Previously domestic out-crosses for the Savannah breed that were permissible in TICA were the Egyptian Mau, the Ocicat, the Oriental Shorthair, and the Domestic Shorthair.
Outcrosses that are "impermissible" according to the TICA breed standard breeds include the Bengal and Maine Coon cats. These impermissible breeds can bring many unwanted genetic influences. Outcrosses are very rarely used as of 2012, as many fertile savannah males are available for studs. Breeders prefer to use a Savannah with the serval to produce F1s, rather than a non-Savannah breed in order to maintain as much breed type as possible.
A Savannah's exotic look is often due to the presence of many distinguishing serval characteristics. Most prominent of these include the various color markings; tall, deeply cupped, wide, rounded, erect ears; very long legs; fat, puffy noses, and hooded eyes. The bodies of Savannahs are long and leggy; when a Savannah is standing, its hind-end is often higher than its prominent shoulders. The small head is taller than wide, and it has a long, slender neck.[6] The backs of the ears have ocelli, a central light band bordered by black, dark grey or brown, giving an eye-like effect. The short tail has black rings, with a solid black tip. The eyes are blue as a kitten (as in other cats), and may be green, brown, gold or a blended shade as an adult. The eyes have a "boomerang" shape, with a hooded brow to protect them from harsh sunlight. Ideally, black or dark "tear-streak" or "cheetah tear" markings run from the corner of the eyes down the sides of the nose to the whiskers, much like that of a cheetah.
Reproduction and genetics[edit]
As Savannahs are produced by crossbreeding servals and domestic cats, each generation of Savannahs is marked with a filial number. For example, the cats produced directly from a serval/domestic cat cross are termed F1, and they are 50% serval.
F1 generation Savannahs are very difficult to produce, due to the significant difference in gestation periods between the serval and a domestic cat (75 days for a serval and 65 days for a domestic cat), and sex chromosomes. Pregnancies are often absorbed or aborted, or kittens are born prematurely. Also, servals can be very picky in choosing mates, and often will not mate with a domestic cat.
F1 Savannahs can be as high as 75% serval. All 75% F1s (technically a backcross, or BC1) are the offspring of a 50% F1 (true F1) female bred back to a serval. Cases of 87.5% F1 (technically BC2) Savannah cats are known, but fertility is questionable at those percentage Serval levels. More common than a 75% F1 is a 62.5% F1, which is the product of an "F2A" (25% serval, female) bred back to a serval. The F2 generation, which has a serval grandparent and is the offspring of the F1 generation female, ranges from 25% to 37.5% serval. The F3 generation has a serval great grandparent, and is at least 12.5% Serval.
A Savannah cross may also be referred to by breeders as "SV xSV" (SV is the TICA code for the Savannah breed), in addition to the filial number. Savannah generation filial numbers also have a letter designator that refers to the generation of SV-to-SV breeding. The designation A means one parent is a Savannah and the other is an outcross. B is used for both parents are Savannahs with one of them being an A. The C designation is when both parents are Savannahs and one of them is a B. Therefore, A x (any SV) = B; B x (B,C,SBT) = C; C x (C, SBT) = SBT, SBT x SBT = SBT. F1 generation Savannahs are always A, since the father is a nondomestic outcross (the serval father). The F2 generation can be A or B. The F3 generation can be A, B or C. The F4 generation is the first generation that can be a "stud book tradition" (SBT) cat, and is considered "purebred".
Being hybrids, Savannahs typically exhibit some characteristics of hybrid inviability. Because the male Savannah is the heterogametic sex, they are most commonly affected, in accordance with Haldane's rule. Male Savannahs are typically larger in size and sterile until the F5 generation or so, although the females are fertile from the F1 generation. As of 2011, breeders were noticing a resurgence in sterility in males at the F5 and F6 generations. Presumably, this is due to the higher serval percentage in C and SBT cats. The problem may also be compounded by the secondary nondomestic genes coming from the Asian leopard cat in the Bengal outcrosses that were used heavily in the foundation of the breed.
Females of the F1-F3 generations are usually held back for breeding, with only the males being offered as pets. The reverse occurs in the F5-F7 generations, but to a lesser degree, with the males being held as breeding cats, and females primarily offered as pets.

The cats are known for their loyalty, and they will follow their owners around the house. They can also be trained to walk on a leash and to fetch.[7]
Some Savannahs are reported to be very social and friendly with new people and other cats and dogs, while others may run and hide or revert to hissing and growling when seeing a stranger. Exposure to other people and pets is most likely the key factor in sociability as Savannah kittens grow up.
An often-noted trait of the Savannah is its jumping ability. They are known to jump on top of doors, refrigerators and high cabinets. Some Savannahs can leap about 8 feet (2.5 m) high from a standing position. Savannahs are very inquisitive. They often learn how to open doors and cupboards, and anyone buying a Savannah will likely need to take special precautions to prevent the cat from getting into trouble.
Many Savannah cats do not fear water, and will play or even immerse themselves in water. Some owners even shower with their Savannah cats.[8] Presenting a water bowl to a Savannah may also prove a challenge, as some will promptly begin to "bat" all the water out of the bowl until it is empty, using their front paws.
Another quirk Savannahs have is to fluff out the base of their tails in a greeting gesture. This behavior is not to be confused with the fluffing of fur along the back and full length of the tail in fear. Savannahs will also often flick or wag their tails in excitement or pleasure.
Vocally, Savannahs may either chirp like their serval fathers, meow like their domestic mothers, both chirp and meow, or sometimes produce sounds which are a mixture of the two. Chirping is observed more often in earlier generations. Savannahs may also "hiss" – a serval-like hiss, quite different from a domestic cat's hiss – sounding more like a very loud snake. It can be alarming to humans not acquainted to such a sound coming from a cat.
There are three basic factors that affect the character of the Savannah cat behavior: lineage, generation, and socialization. These three factors all follow the nature and nurture argument with nature being breed lines combined with generation and nurture being social upbringing. As of 2014[update] the Savannah breed development is still in its infancy and most Savannah cats have a very broad range of behaviors.
If a breed line has a tendency for a specific behavior over other behaviors[clarification needed] it is likely to be passed to the breed lines offspring. As outside lines are used there is a merging effect of the base behaviors.
When breeding lines starting from early generations such as first filial and second filial generations (F1 and F2 Savannahs), behavior stemming from the wild out cross, the Serval, is more apparent. Behaviors like jumping, fight or flight instincts, dominance, and nurturing behaviors are more noticeable in early generations. Since fertile males that are F5 and F6 are used in most breeding programs, later generation Savannah cats behaviors tend to act more like traditional domestic cats. Overlying behavior traits for all generations are high activity and high curiosity.
Probably the most influential factor is early socialization. Kittens can be socialized with human contact from birth, and human interaction each day reinforces kitten and cat human interaction behavior that lasts throughout the cats' life span. Kittens within litters will tend to have varied social skills, with some that like human interaction and others that fear it. If kittens that fear humans never grow past that fear they will tend to exhibit a more shy behavior and are likely to hide when strangers are present. Kittens that look forward to human visits and likely to engage in play with humans tend to grow to cats that are more welcoming of strangers and less frightened of new environments. These cats tend to become the life of the party versus a cat that will find a hiding place until the party is over. Human cat socialization should be practiced each day with positive reinforcement for a kitten to grow into a well-rounded social Savannah cat. Kittens that go for long periods of time without human interaction and only interact with their mothers or siblings usually do not develop a strong bond with humans and tend to be less trusting of humans. These kittens tend to be shy and are likely to hide when unknown people are present.
Health considerations[edit]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a health concern in many pure breed cats. A link has recently been found between Bengal cat (a similar hybrid) and HCM[when?][citation needed] there are cases that indicate that HCM may also be a reoccurring health issue in servals. Several responsible Bengal Breeders have their breeder cats scanned for HCM on an annual basis, though this practice is not as widespread in the Savannah community.
Some veterinarians[citation needed] have noted servals have smaller livers relative to their body sizes than domestic cats, and some Savannahs inherit this, but the medical consequence of this is unrecognized and is likely to be of no consequence. There are no known medical peculiarities of hybrid cats requiring different medical treatments than that of domestic cats, despite what many breeders may believe. The blood values of Savannahs are not known to be different from the typical domestic cat, despite its serval genes.[citation needed]
Like domestic cats, Savannahs and other domestic hybrids (such as Bengals) require appropriate anesthesia based on their medical needs but do not have specific requirements as breeders sometimes erroneously infer. It is unclear among the veterinary community how a particular anesthetic agent, specifically ketamine, has been listed as causing ill effects when this has not been found to be accurate. It is possible this comes from a misunderstanding of the drug and its common effects, since ketamine is an anesthetic that cannot be used alone.
Ketamine has been proven safe, when used in servals, together with medetomidine (Domitor, Dorbene, Dormilan, Medetor, Sedastart, Sedator, Sededorm) and butorphanol (Alvegesic, Dolorex, Torbugesic, Torbutrol, Torphasol) with the antagonist atipamezole (Alzane, Antisedan, Atipam, Revertor, Sedastop).[9][10]
In the United States, rabies vaccines are recommended but not approved for non-domestic cats. If a non-domestic cat bites someone it will be treated as "unvaccinated" whether it has been given a vaccine or not. This means a state veterinarian may require a cat who has bitten someone to be euthanized or quarantined according to state laws.
Some breeders state Savannah cats have no known special care or food requirements, while others recommend a very high quality diet with no grains or byproducts. Some recommend a partial or complete raw feeding/raw food diet with at least 32% protein and no byproducts. Some recommend calcium and other supplements, especially for growing cats and earlier generations. Others consider it unnecessary, or even harmful.[6] Most Savannah breeders agree that Savannahs have a need for more taurine than the average domestic cat, and therefore recommend taurine supplements, which can be added to any food type.[citation needed]
Ownership laws[edit]
Laws governing ownership of Savannah cats in the United States vary according to state. The majority of states follow the code set by the United States Department of Agriculture, which defines wild or domesticated hybrid crosses as domesticated. Some states have set more restrictive laws on hybrid cat ownership, including Hawaii, Massachusetts, Texas and Georgia. Some cities may have laws that differ from the state. For example, Savannahs more than five generations from the serval are allowed to be owned in New York state, but not in the city of New York.[11]
The Australian Federal government has banned the importation into Australia of the Savannah cat, as the larger cats could potentially threaten species of the country's native wildlife not threatened by smaller domestic cats.[12][13] A government report on the proposed importation of the cats has warned the hybrid breed may introduce enhanced hunting skills and increased body size into feral cat populations, putting native species at risk. The report states the Savannah cats are not worth the risk.[14][15]
Savannah cats are legal in every province of Canada, although some provinces have restrictions on the ownership of F1 and F2 generations, and importing Savannahs from the United States requires rabies vaccination and special permits.[16]
Many other nations have few or no restrictions on F2 and later generations.[17]

ARLINGTON, VA – Cooperatives Working Together (CWT) has accepted seven requests for export assistance from Dairy Farmers of America and Northwest Dairy Association (Darigold) to sell 1.612 million pounds (731 metric tons) of Cheddar, Gouda and Monterey Jack cheese to customers in Asia. The product will be delivered June through October 2013.
Year-to-date, CWT has assisted member cooperatives in selling 60.812 million pounds of cheese, 51.727 million pounds of butter, 44,092 pounds of anhydrous milk fat and 218,258 pounds of whole milk powder to 31 countries on six continents. These sales are the equivalent of 1.690 billion pounds of milk on a milkfat basis. That is more than USDA's projected increase in milk marketings for all of 2013.
Assisting CWT members through the Export Assistance program positively impacts producer milk prices in the short-term by helping to maintain inventories of cheese and butter at desirable levels. In the long-term, CWT's Export Assistance program helps member cooperatives gain and maintain market share, thus expanding the demand for U.S. dairy products and the farm milk that produces them.
CWT will pay export assistance to the bidders only when delivery of the product is verified by the submission of the required documentation.
The Cooperatives Working Together (CWT) Export Assistance program is funded by voluntary contributions from dairy cooperatives and individual dairy farmers. The money raised by their investment is being used to strengthen and stabilize the dairy farmers' milk prices and margins. For more information about CWT, visit www.cwt.coop.

Q: How do I properly size a pump to create the waterfall I'm looking for? – Several Customers
A: We get this question asked to us quite a bit. The following process will help you in determing the correct pump size for a waterfall:
Step 1: Determine the Head Pressure (Head)
Head equals the total number of feet from the top of the waterfall to the water's surface. For example: Let's say that height is equal to 5′.
Step 2: Determining Desired Water Flow
In general, you will need 1,500 gallons per hour (gph) for every 1-foot of waterfall discharge for an average flow. The discharge is considered where the water enters back into the pond. For example: Let's say the width of our waterfall is 2′. This would mean we need a pump of approximately 3,000 gph.
Step 3: Putting It All Together
In our example, our head pressure is 5′ and the approximate gph of our desired pump is 3,000 gph. This means would need a pump that would pump 3,000 gph at 5′ of head.
Other Notes:
- For a heavy waterfall flow, use 2,000 gph per foot of waterfall discharge.
- For a lighter waterfall flow, use 1,000 gph per foot of waterfall discharge.
- If the tubing from the pump to the waterfall is greater than 10′ then it is recommended to add 1 foot of head for every 10′ of tubing.
- We also have a calculator on our website to help calculate this formula for you. Click here to view the calculator.

With all the fuss over my inclusion in School Gate, London Times education site, I almost forgot to post something new. Jeez Louise!
For now, let's just attribute part of my memory lapse to a rather "interesting" week. You remember "interesting" don't you? (Our little fill-in-the-blank code word for when someone or something renders us speechless or when we want to shout at the top of our lungs, "Why you big, fat…" Awwww, you know the rest. And, no siree, Missy, I'm not going to say it. I've got that counter thingy to think about.)
OK, so let's just get back to my "interesting" week. First, we were––make that still are--on our first newspaper deadline. Since that was/is such an ugly mess, I still can't talk about it because my mother taught me, "If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all…"
So for right now, I won't say anything about my newspaper staffers and deadline, bless their hearts, until I start feeling the love again.
Hmmmm…that leaves my photography classes. They just finished their first project and we posted all the photographs to critique.
Uh-oh. Nope. I probably shouldn't discuss that one either. Let's just say that there was a rather significant collection of photos that had a rather bluish cast to them. Animals with blue noses, people with bluish skin, fences with blue-toned wood, and, of course, a dog with blue fur. I rather felt like I was stuck in a Blue's Clues episode gone bad. I guess in their defense I should say that one of our school colors is blue so perhaps it was a school spirit thing.
So, my friends, that now leaves just my yearbook staff and my Journalism I class. Well, let's just say my yearbook editor scares me lately. Somehow she's perfected in 17 years what has taken me 50-something years to develop: a persona of pure intimidation. She wants this special linen cover that costs an extra $2+ a book. And guess what? She's getting that cover if I have to get a government bailout to do it.
Speaking of government bailouts, every Friday we discuss current events in my Journalism I class, so of course, we talked about the current financial crisis and government proposed bail-out.
One student wanted to know why we just didn't print more money to solve the problem.
Me… "Well, it doesn't work that way. It's kind of complicated, but everyone's economy is connected to each other and if we have too much money circulating around, then the money isn't worth anything."
Kid #1…"Why not? It's just money. We should print up some more."
Me… "Well, dear, if it really worked that way, we'd all be printing money in our basements. If, of course, we had basements." (Remember this is Texas.)
Kid #2…"I know what they should do."
Kid #2…"You know that $2,000 everyone got as part of that stimulus package?"
Me… (secretly thrilled, the children knew about the stimulus package)…"Yes…"
Kid #2… "Well, $2,000 wasn't enough to buy enough of anything to stimulate anything. The government needs to give everyone $200,000. Now, that would stimulate the economy…"
All the kids simultaneously… "Yeah!"
Me…"Hey, you can't give away money you don't have…"
Oh, wait… I guess you can.

Melissa B.,
I wouldn't do that to you… I like you too much :-)…
This is what happens when most of the staff graduates and most of the remaining staffers are sophomores and juniors. sigh. I think I'm getting too old for this…

Melissa's done two issues already? Bless her heart. I am not sure I can say much about my newspaper, either, except someone needs to teach those kids to write. And maybe I need to pass publications off to that young, new teacher who was exclaiming that it all looks like so much fun. Yep! It sure does!
