High-performance 4GB Dominator GT kit for dual channel systems, 2133MHz, 9-10-9-27, 1.65V
Two 2GB memory modules
Designed for use with all DDR3 motherboards with two memory channels
If you're looking for some of the best memory you can get, then look no further. Not only will the Dominators help your system perform well, they'll also make it look cool - or at least the Dominators will look cool. Which is just one more reason to purchase them.
Corsair have done a great job of refreshing the old Dominator modules. The new and improved Dominator GT 1866 6GB kit showed some great improvements were to be had across all of the benchmarks I ran today.
The best part about this memory is their overclocking headroom. Bumping the memory voltage to 1.7V, the sticks clocked a tad past 1900 MHz while remaining totally stable. For those with more nerves, increasing voltage by another 50mV, up to 1.75V, allowed the Dominator's to break 2000 MHz with the same 9-9-9-24 timings.
In my mind $205 is a steal for what is essentially a 6GB kit of Corsair Dominator 1600MHz that can be easily turned into a 1800 MHz kit with the change of a button. I basically have no option but to award this kit with the TechwareLabs Editors Choice Award. Doing anything else would simply be an injustice to this masterpiece.
The Corsair Dominator-GT DDR3 triple-channel memory kits offer the best of both worlds: high speeds and relatively low latency. For PC hardware enthusiasts who can afford the purchase price, this memory kit could mean the difference between joining the 4.0GHz overclock club or being like everyone else.
The Corsair Dominator 8GB DC DDR3 1600MHz kit showed us the advantage of running more ram and gave us a great performance boost, we plan on running 8GB in our test rig and that's the best compliment you can give any product so it scores an: 8.5 out of 10 and the Bjorn3D Seal Of Approval.
If you absolutely have to have one of the best kits of memory in your system, the Dominator-GTs are it. If you are a benchmarker looking for that "end all-be all" kit of memory for flexibility in benching, the Dominator-GTs are it.
Based on what you've seen here, allow us to strongly recommend the Dominator 1600MHz DDR3 Dual Channel Memory if you want your money's worth. This is thus far the strongest dual channel 1600MHz DDR3 memory to grace this test bench.
All in all, I am quite pleased with the Corsair Dominator GT TW3X4G1600C6GT memory. With the option to cool it using water or even a TEC, your potential for this kit is toward the sky as long as you are willing to fork over the cash to have the best.
The Corsair Dominator TR3X6G1600C8D 1600MHz Triple Memory kit consistently outperformed the Kingston HyperX in all of our tests. In 32-Bit Windows, in both cases, only 3GB were at stake and the Corsair memory came out on top, sometimes by a fair margin. At 64-Bit, we cannot stress enough that the more memory you have, the better.
In my mind $205 is a steal for what is essentially a 6GB kit of Corsair Dominator 1600MHz that can be easily turned into a 1800 MHz kit with the change of a button. I basically have no option but to award this kit with the TechwareLabs Editors Choice Award. Doing anything else would simply be an injustice to this masterpiece.
Corsair never fail to impress us with their memory and this kit is no different. The Dominator 1600MHz triple channel kit completed our review suite with perfect stablity even when overclocked 266MHz above their stated speed.
The fact that we can now buy memory that is specified to run at DDR3-2250 with 8-8-8 timings and only 1.65v is absolutely astonishing. A year ago that idea would have been downright ludicrous had you tried to tell us that.
We like it when companies push the boundaries of what's possible. Desktop DDR3 operating at 2000MHz CL7 with 1.65v represents just such an approach.
Speedy, quick, swift, blistering; it doesn't matter how you say it, PC3-18000 is fast! If you have the money and want the performance, as of this minute you can't look past the Corsair Dominator GTX PC3-18000 kit.
All in all if you are looking for a larger than standard 4GB kit, the 8GB Corsair Dominator GT kit is certainly a kit that will suit your needs. High overclocking, aesthetically pleasing and backed up by Corsairs award winning support and warranty should make the buying decision all the easier
To wrap things up, we have an incredibly expensive kit that offers incredible performance and keeps on moving upwards with a little overclocking. If you are a competitive benchmarker or a gamer set on buying the best, this kit is for you.
Performance on the Dominator kit was better than we've seen on previous platforms and overclocking and tuning the Dominator kit on the LGA 1156 platform was a dream come true. The ease of overclocking on the platform makes it well worthwhile to play with CPU speed and Bclk frequencies to achieve the perfect balance of speed vs. performance.
An extremely high quality set of DDR3 modules that offer some serious performance.
The Corsair Dominator GT 8GB kit for Lynnfield is a well priced kit. It has potential for great performance at its rated speed and timings, with some room for overclocking as well.
I can't help but admire the value you get for around 110. Those that say that Corsair is always more expensive (I know, I used to be one of them) haven't looked at this kit yet. The Dominators just ooze quality, offer the best cooling technology available on the market, and on top of that, overclock like a dream.
The best-performing triple-channel kit on the marketing. Other manufacturers may claim the same potential as these sticks, but if you want guarantees, then you are going to have to buy Corsair's 2000 cas7 kit.
A defective memory module(s) can cause various issues on your computer. These are just a few of the possible issues you may encounter. It is important to remember the issues below can also be caused by more than just defective memory.
How can we be sure that the memory is defective before starting the RMA exchange process? There are programs available that are designed to test the computer's memory. We recommend Memtest86+ to test your computer's memory. Please visit this link to download and install Memtest86+ for an ISO image or USB Drive: Link To make a bootable Floppy from with in Windows, First you would download the memtest utility to your HDD, then using www.winzip.com extract it to the same directory. Please then get a floppy and do a fresh full format on it, and if there are any bad sectors just throw it away and get a new one. Then click on the install.bat file in the directory where you downloaded and extracted the files and follow the on screen prompts. To make a Bootable CD from within windows you would download the ISO image that has a .zip extension. .tar would be for UNIX. Memtest.ISO Then use www.winzip.com to extract the ISO image to the same directory that you downloaded it to. Then using CD-R software you will burn the image to CD. Note: Do not copy the image; there is usually an option under file or burner to burn image. Note: If you have recently added any new memory into the computer, we suggest you temporarily remove it to make sure it is not the cause of your issue before testing with Memtest. Please make sure you back up all the data from the USB drive before Memtest86+ installation as it will require a format.

It was a fantastic start for Whitecaps FC on Saturday. The two goals notched by Sebastian Le Toux and Camilo were both works of art and great team goals. The staff at MLSsoccer.com also thought the 'Caps scores each stood out, as they have both been nominated for Goal of the Week. Make sure to vote for either Le Toux or Camilo. (MLSsoccer.com)
Last year's team MVP and top scorer Camilo is back with Whitecaps FC and he's looking to score even more goals this year and make a run at the MLS Golden Boot. "I think I can score more," stated Camilo. Only time will tell how Camilo will fare this season, but he's off to a great start. (Marc Weber - The Province)
Soccer teams are often great examples of cultural mosaics. Whitecaps FC are no different; their back four is made up of five different nationalities: American, Argentinean, Korean and Swiss-Canadian. Naturally, however, English is slowly starting to make its way as the predominant language on the back line. (Bruce Constantineau - The Vancouver Sun)
Jun Marques Davidson is quickly making a name for himself in Vancouver after his 'Man of the Match' performance on Saturday against the Impact. The former Carolina RailHawk will try to be the reliable defensive midfielder the 'Caps need to be successful. (Michael McColl - Canadian Soccer News)
'Whitecaps FC Daily' with Peter Schaad is back in its usual 3:00 p.m. timeslot on TEAM 1410 sports radio! For those of you who may have missed past episodes, you can find them HERE!

Whitecaps FC got their MLS season started the right way with a big 2-0 win over their Canadian rivals the Montreal Impact. However, Whitecaps FC aren't getting ahead of themselves this year. "The players realize it's three points, which is excellent, but that's all it is," said Head Coach Martin Rennie. The 'Caps are just taking it one game at a time and the next one on the schedule says they're playing Chivas USA at the Home Depot Centre on Saturday at 7:30 pm, which you can watch on Sportsnet pacific.

Brazil legend Ronaldo feels that the Selecao are arguably the outright favourites to win the 2014 World Cup ahead of Spain and Germany.
The World Cup hosts impressed at the Confederations Cup earlier this year as they beat Spain 3-0 in the final and Ronaldo believes they have what it takes to repeat that feat on home soil next year.
"It's not the same as the World Cup, but the team showed their potential at the Confederations Cup," the former Brazil star told the official Fifa website.
"With time to train, Brazil improved a great deal. It really gave Brazilians hope that we might win the World Cup at home. We've got a great chance.
"Spain and Germany are candidates, but Brazil have shown how strong they are, and we'll be playing at home. I'd say that the favourites are Brazil, Germany and Spain, in that order."
Ronaldo is in danger of losing his record as the World Cup's all-time top goalscorer to Miroslav Klose, but he's not too worried about no longer being the top dog in the record books.
"I believe that records are there to be broken. It doesn't worry me. Someone is bound to break the record one day. I made my name scoring lots of goals, and that will never be forgotten.
"My personal history and my 15 World Cup goals will never be erased. If he scores more than me, I'll congratulate him, and of course I admire him. But he'll never take away my goals or my history."
Ronaldo is on 15 goals, with Klose trailing him by just one goal ahead of next year's tournament.

So you don't believe that the US Government should stand by the promises they make to military veterans? That'd make a hell of a recruiting slogan.
It's easy to make a ton of promises based in the future when you know you don't have to be around to carry them out. And like I have said, military veterans should be the only group the federal government should be providing long-term benefits to. I say cut long-term welfare payments so we know there will be enough/more money to give to veterans.

The 30-year old has been linked with moves to Corinthians and New York Red Bulls, but the Madrid coach said he wanted the former AC Milan forward to stay in the Spanish capital.
"I don't think we'll do anything in January, and I don't think Kaka will leave either," Mourinho told a press conference.
|Barcelona aim to win for Tito Vilanova, while Real Madrid travel to Malaga
"If he stays it's good for the team," he added.
Mourinho also took the time to speak about Uefa's recent decision to fine and ban Saturday's La Liga opponents Malaga.
The Andalusians have been excluded from the next Uefa club competition for which they qualify, and could face further sanctions after failing to meet financial requirements.
"I hope that the terms are given so that it is sorted out. If they earn [European qualification] on the pitch it would be sad that, for non-sporting reasons, they could not do it. It would be sad for the fans," he said.
The former Inter coach also expressed his support for Barcelona boss Tito Vilanova, who has recently fallen ill.
"What I do in private, I do not say publicly. If I have talked to him [Vilanova] or sent him a message, it's personal. When a fellow coach has a health problem, we are all on the same side. For Tito and his family, we are with them."
Los Blancos currently lie third in the Liga table after amassing 33 points from their opening 16 games, and travel to face fourth-placed Malaga, who are just five points behind Mourinho's men. Kick off is 20:00CET on Saturday.

Amtrak backwards. Very fitting to those that work there. It is the opposite of Karma or at the very least feast or famine mentality. One day Kartma is setting the world on fire with rumors of new equipment and high speed rail and the next day a freighter pulls in another GE P42 and we are told to go take parts off of a dead unit to fix the other dead unit that just came in....One step forward....Three Steps Back!!!!

Dental Decay and Pain
How do I stop a tooth ache that is decayed with a cavity?
With analgesics like Ibuprofen, you can buy this in the pharmacy over the counter, this will be a temporary solution. The best way will be going to the dentist and treating the problem that is causing the pain.

In an era when advertising budgets are under greater scrutiny, marketers must be able understand the effectiveness and performance of the ads they place.
A new study by Accenture, commissioned by ABC, has uncovered a number of compelling insights that can help marketers do just that.
Our focus was the impact of video advertising, given its prominent role in many advertising budgets. As part of our analysis, we concentrated on two key categories: Multiplatform TV, which encompasses television-type programming consumed in various ways; and Digital which, for the purpose of this study, includes search, display, and short-form video.
We analyzed our proprietary, robust Accenture database of $12 billion in anonymized marketing spend over a three-year period across more than 20 leading national brands representing six industry categories, and tracked the impact of this spend on key metrics, including sales and brand health.
Multiplatform TV advertising has a significant halo effect on search, display, and short-form video advertising within integrated campaigns. On average, 18% of the Return on Investment (ROI) that's typically attributed to these three channels actually should be credited to Multiplatform TV.
While the average ROI from search, display, and short-form video is high at initial spend levels relative to Multiplatform TV, marginal returns for Digital diminish rapidly as spend increases. In fact, the inflection point happens sooner than what we initially expected.
Multiplatform TV advertising has a measurable, long-term impact on driving incremental sales. The combined impact of Years 2 and 3 is equivalent to 1.3x the impact measured in Year 1.
after a reallocation of 2% Multiplatform TV budget to Digital
Advertising within long-form digital video (a subset of Multiplatform TV) outperforms most types of digital advertising, including short-form video. Long-form digital video ROI outperforms short-form video by a factor of more than 1.5x.

Forced restraint: Manchester's tax cap works
November 19. 2013 7:11PM
Remember the bad old days? A decade ago Manchester's tax rates were rising by high single or low double digits. An 8 percent rate hike was not unusual. Since the tax and spending cap went into effect in 2011, there has not been a tax hike of even 2.5 percent.
The cap is doing exactly what voters intended it to do: restrain the aldermen. Given how the city has voted since 2005, it seems pretty clear that this was the goal. That was the year Frank Guinta defeated Bob Baines, who responded to Guinta's anti-tax message by saying people didn't mind paying higher taxes.
Since then, Manchester voters have approved the cap — twice — and have consistently elected mayors who promised to keep taxes in check. Yet at the same time voters just as consistently have elected an overwhelming majority of aldermen who favor steady increases in taxes and spending. Maybe voters in Manchester, as in the rest of the country, want both high-quality services and low taxes.
The cap can be seen as a way of trying to provide both of those ideal outcomes. It forces elected officials to keep taxes and spending low, which in turn forces them to budget and govern more creatively. That was its intended purpose, and voters appear to be using it that way.

Roscommon teachers leave Michigan Education Association
ROSCOMMON, Mich. – Teachers at Roscommon Area Public Schools voted by a nearly 2-to-1 margin to leave the Michigan Education Association, according to TV9&10 News.
The teachers have reorganized into a local union in order to save money on dues, the station reported. The new union, the Roscommon Teacher's Association, told TV9&10 that the MEA wastes money on union executive salaries.
RTA Interim President James Perialas said that "We're exercising our right to say, we're your customer and we're not buying your product anymore."

Editor's Note. Correspondent Ruth Ham, who passed away on Monday night, submitted her final column to the Sanford News on Friday, Feb. 1. It appears below. Here at the Sanford News, we are grateful to Ruth for her coverage of Shapleigh all these years, and we offer our condolences to her surviving family and friends.
Marianne Normand and Colleen Feeney-Dyer, both of Shapleigh, have received approval from the planning board for a Conditional Use Permit to open a Wellness Center in leased space in Roger Berube's building at 63 Emery Mills Road, Tax Map, 19 Lot 13.
The center will offer massage therapy, Reiki, yoga, meditation classes and various other healing modalities.
According to the approval, the classroom size shall not exceed 12 people, plus an instructor. Most classes will be held at night or on the weekends, when the day care is not open. For most of the time, there will be only one customer for each practitioner, Marianne and Colleen.
Hours of operation will be 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week. The Code Enforcement Office will permit signage.
Any changes to the conditions of approval as stated will need to be brought back before the planning board.
In other news, the board has issued Richard and Carolyn Levesque, of Sanford, a Residential Growth Permit for a seasonal conversion for their property at 26 Hawthorne Road on Square Pond, Tax Map 30, Lot 41. This is the second such permit that has been issued so far in 2013.
Last week's erratic fluctuations in the weather caused cancellations and prompted extra caution in Shapleigh.
Officials canceled a budget meeting at the Shapleigh Town Hall on Wednesday, Jan. 30, because dense fog created potential driving dangers. Other meetings were canceled too.
Motorists in Shapleigh tried to make their way through the cotton-thick swirling mass in front of them; headlight beams did not penetrate the fog. Drivers who had to venture out ended up taking at least twice the time to travel the same distance to their destinations.
The Shapleigh Board of Selectmen will conduct a public hearing at the town hall on Back Road on Tuesday, Feb. 19, at 7 p.m. regarding the following referendum article:
"Do you favor our State and Federal Congregational delegations holding hearings, in consultation with the National Academy of Science, to devise and implement a sustainable energy policy for the nation?" (This policy must be based on peer-reviewed science and should seek to diminish polluting emissions.)
Voters will settle the question when Shapleigh holds its annual town election on Friday, March 8. Polls will be open at the town hall that day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Maine Tree Farm System (AFTS) recently recognized the Town of Shapleigh's commitment as a Certified Tree Farmer.
To perform a certification assessment of the Maine Tree Farm Program, a random sample of tree farms is selected for on-site visits by professional foresters from NSF International, the organization that provides ATFS with third party recognition. If Shapleigh's tree farm is chosen in the random sample for site visits, NSF's tree farm inspecting forester will contact local selectmen and forest trustees this spring.
Shapleigh actually has about 500 acres in its Tree Farm. The town established the farm in the 1960s, when voters utilized a portion of the former Town Farm property as a forest. The rest of the property, which bordered Square Pond, was surveyed and sold as camp lots. Some shore land was also kept for a Town Beach. Fields were planted with trees.
Over the years, the property has been managed by a dedicated group of three trustees elected for staggering terms of three years, so that only one is elected each year.
The farm's acreage has increased over the years, as the town sought to purchase abutting forested lots with funds that were generated by timber sales, according to the forest management plan. All funds earned by these sales go toward the care and maintenance of the forest and town beach as well as the acquisition of future parcels. The forest greatly enhances the rural atmosphere of the Square Pond area and makes Shapleigh a great place to own a lakeside camp or home.
The state's Department of Health and Human Services has informed town officials that Shapleigh's General Assistance program is in compliance with the department's statutes.
The department's Family Independence Department conducted the review.
According to Waterboro Fire Chief Mathew Bors, the Waterboro Fire Department is updating its Mutual Aid agreement with the Town of Shapleigh.
Both Bors and Shapleigh have copies of the agreement. The agreement shall continue as long as both parties agree with the provisions included, but it may be terminated with a 30-day notice of either party.
Shapleigh Recreation is offering discount rates to local families who would like to go to Pine Meadows Snow Tubing Park at King Mountain in New Hampshire on Sunday, Feb. 17, from noon to 2 p.m.
With discount rates of $10 per person for a two-hour session, Shapleigh families are encouraged to sign up today by contacting Julie Tanner or Cindy Labbe to reserve your tickets.
Payment is required by Feb. 10. Transportation will not be provided.
Twenty participants are required to hold this event. The event will be canceled and payments will be refunded if this minimum is not met.
To reserve tickets, contact Tanner at 438-731 or firstname.lastname@example.com or Cindy at 636-2036 or email@example.com.
The Williams Property Advisory Committee met on Jan. 17, with members Madge Baker, Mark Cobb, Nate Gallant, Richard Goodwin and Bruce Lamb present. Scoutmaster David Wade and Scout Robert Elliott attended as guests and gave a presentation about Boy Scout Camporees that are held each year.
In 2013, the Scouts would like to hold the Camporee on the Williams property. While there, they hope to complete some property-improvement projects.
The committee will discuss this request at its meeting at the Shapleigh Town Hall on Thursday, Feb. 21, at 6:30 In other business, the committee also discussed establishing an endowment fund for the Williams property by selling off a town parcel on the County Road. The committee will continue to consider the challenge of creating a stewardship endowment on Feb. 21.
Lastly, the committee also discussed installing a bronze plaque on a concrete block on the Williams property. Lamb said he had received an estimate of $3,100 from Heritage Memorial in Sanford. Voters will address this proposal at the upcoming annual town meeting.
Also at their January meeting, members discussed potential names for the property.
Parents with children who wish to play baseball with the Mousam Valley Little League are encouraged to sign them up at the Shapleigh Memorial School between 6 and 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 6, 12 or 27, or between 9 a.m. and noon on Feb. 16.
For more information, contact Mike Smith at 206-6041.
Nonperishable food items can be dropped off at the First Baptist Church at 600 Shapleigh Corner Road anytime when the building is open. Generally, if there is a car in the parking lot or an American flag is flying at the ramp doorway, there is someone there. Just inside, there is a wheelbarrow which is used as a receptacle for any donations for the food pantry.
There is also a need for personal items such as toilet paper, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste and brushes, since those items are not covered by food stamps.
An alternative dropping-off site is the Shapleigh Town Hall at 22 Back Road during regular office hours. The town clerk has a large carton marked "Food Pantry Donations." The deacons of the church regularly pick up the donations to help keep the church's food pantry stocked to serve folks in need.
If you have been one of those donating, thank you. If you have not, please consider doing so. Hunger is not only an issue on Thanksgiving or Christmas; it affects men, women and children throughout the entire year. During the holidays, many donors get that "feel good" feeling by participating. You can get that same feeling all year long as you help provide this vital service to our townspeople.
The First Baptist Church at 600 Shapleigh Corner Road will hold a clothing giveaway and thrift sale on Saturday, Feb. 9, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the church. Everyone is welcome.

UFC Lightweight Reza Madadi Sentenced to 1.5 Years in Prison For Role in Handbag Heist
"Handbag Heist" might be the sissiest sounding crime in the history of crimes committed by MMA fighters, but it doesn't change the fact that UFC lightweight Reza Madadi is headed to a year and a half in Swedish prison for it nonetheless.
"Mad Dog," who was arrested for stealing over $150,000 in handbags following a "dramatic car chase" (some of which was captured on the surveillance video above) back in May, was convicted of grand larceny yesterday. Aftonbladet.se has the details:
Read More DIGG THIS
It was about five o'clock on the morning of 24 May, three men carried out the smash and grab-coup against the exclusive väskaffären Bottega Veneta on West Higgins Road in central Stockholm.
They should have brought with them bags of SEK 1.7 million. Surveillance film from the store shows the men smashing the door, enters and booms store.
Reza "Mad dog" Madadi and his friend were arrested at a workshop in Åkersberga by police just one hour after the attack. Martial Comforter stated in court that he was there to pick up a rental car.
In the workshop, the police found the cell phone, balaclava, a sledgehammer and clothes that were used in the burglary.

Shot Through The Heart
I'm not going to pretend like it's rare for me to say things like, "I had to keep looking away during that episode" or "I honestly felt like I was intruding on the worst moment of a person's life" after I watch General Hospital. It's a distressingly frequent occurrence, actually! But I'm usually saying them in the "I had to keep looking away during that episode, on account of how horrendously written it was" or "I honestly felt like I was intruding on the worst moment of a person's life...oh, wait, that happened and that person was actually me. Never mind" kind of ways.
Today, though, was like a punch in the throat. I had been so eagerly anticipating Lucky's smackdown of Liz and Nik for their crimes against humanity, but I wasn't expecting it to be so...raw. And painful. And nearly impossible to watch.
(I DID expect lots of slut-calling, so at least I wasn't totally caught off guard by Lucky's tirades. I mean, seriously, men on this show are not allowed to express even mild annoyance without denigrating a woman for being a whore).
Jonathan Jackson was even better than he has been in recent days, and since he has been pretty damn great of late, well...I know that I compliment him so often that anything I say about him can easily be interpreted as mindless gushing, and maybe that's a little bit right, but still, he was good.
As was Becky Herbst, who hit every single note of pure devastation.
And Tyler Christopher managed to shed a single tear after spending most of the episode stone-faced*.
But I am too caught up in the soapiness to even make a "Maybe he's born with it, maybe it's glycerin" crack.
*He was good when Liz kicked him out at the end, though. Credit where credit is due and all that. I feel like I am growing as a person!
I was originally going to do a "The Day's Most GASP! DID THAT JUST HAPPEN? Dialogue" entry after today, but pretty much every line Lucky said was in the running. Like, everything about this exchange was [insert hyperbolic expression of greatness here] and [and also here]:
Elizabeth: I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Lucky: So you've said.
Elizabeth: I have no excuse.
Lucky: Something we agree on.
Nikolas: Look, I don't know what else to say. We didn't plan for this to happen, Lucky. It just happened, ok?
Lucky: I don't even know what that means.
But wait! There's more!
Lucky: Who cares?! Who cares if I'm drunk?! Drunk! Sober! Sober! Drunk! I can still smell every lie that comes out of your mouth. But look, I'll own my part in this. Ok? I couldn't see what was right in front of me. You're too edgy when Nikolas is around. You cry for no reason. You push me away and then say it has nothing to do with me. I should have known after everything that Elizabeth has done that she was a faithless tramp. But never, ever in my wildest dreams did i ever imagine this betrayal from my own brother.
Lucky: You're the big surprise, Nikolas. All those years learning to trust each other, believing you when you said you loved me, that we were both our mother's sons. I got news for you. You are a Cassadine right down to the bottom of your rotten soul. Yeah, i guess i had to see it for myself, but you two make a hell of a pair.
Elizabeth: You know, what you saw, it was the end of it.
Lucky: End of it? Oh, it helps to know that wasn't the only time. When did this affair start exactly, huh? Well, you know what? I don't wanna know.
I loved, loved, LOVED when Carly stopped by. Liz's complete terror at Carly "The Mouth" Jacks learning her secret and Lucky's "Oh, it's already been broughten" look as he went to let Carly in were awesome.
Carly: Elizabeth, it's Carly. Are you home?
Elizabeth: Please don't.
Lucky: Pardon me. Hey, cuz. Come on in.
Carly: Ok, obviously you guys are in the middle of something. I just wanted to invite you to Josslyn's christening. It's on January 29, so--
Lucky: I'll be there, wouldn't miss it. Nikolas and Elizabeth, I don't think they're gonna be able to make it, though, because they'll be too busy rutting like farm animals.
RUTTING LIKE FARM ANIMALS! I am torn between asking "Who says that?" and "Why doesn't everybody in the world say that every single day?".
The entire painful, nasty episode took the ugliest turn yet when Elizabeth alluded to the two greatest children in all of soapdom. After hearing those two words, Lucky completely lost it in the most vicious way.
Elizabeth: I know you want to punish me, but think about the boys.
Lucky: Shut your lying mouth! You can whore yourself out to anyone you want, but don't you ever, ever try to use Cam and Jake to manipulate me again, you bitch.
Elizabeth: You can attack me all you want, but i have never used Cam and Jake to manipulate you.
Lucky: You always have. You knew the problems I had with my dad from day one. You held Cam and Jake out as my chance to be a better father, to have a stable family, but what you really wanted was for me to be your fail-safe. You wanted me to play papa while you were out tramping around. Those boys have no idea--
Nikolas: Lucky, you're understandably upset, but you're taking this thing too far.
Lucky: Like hell I am! You heard her. She doesn't want the world to know what you two did, for the boys' sake. She thinks that by throwin' them in my face, she'll get what she wants like always. Well, not this time! You cheated, he lied, and you handed yourself out like candy.
AH! I couldn't watch, but I also couldn't not watch.
And then Lulu brought it all home. Dare I have high hopes that tomorrow will be another day of amazing smackdowns?
Nikolas: I have. Elizabeth and I both spoke to him. Well, I'm-- "listened" would be more accurate, I guess.
Lulu: Did he say why he started drinking again?
Nikolas: He knows the truth. Elizabeth and I have been sleeping together for months now.
Lulu: You liar. You selfish pig. How could you do this to your brother?
Pretty fab, no? And that's not even getting into Michael telling Sonny that Dante is a cop, or the sheer WTFery of Carly suggesting that Jason get custody of Jake because Liz had an affair with Nikolas! The whole episode made my head spin, but mostly in the good way, which is just weird!

By Lois M. Rodriguez
For the past few years, I've enjoyed the opportunity to be part of Fredericksburg Food and Wine Fest's Cooking School. It's hard to explain how much I enjoy sharing a few baking tricks to let others discover their own baking skills, but I do enjoy it. It's fun to open up the inner-chef in people who think they cannot bake.
My schtick (yes, I have one, ha!) is that baking is like "arts and crafts in the kitchen." It is! So give yourself time to be creative, and don't be intimidated by sophisticated looking desserts. It's easier than it looks, and presentation goes a long way, too.
This past weekend, I discussed a couple of dessert trends – the salted caramel flavorings and dessert shooters (served in shot or miniature glasses). The salty-sweet has always been a favorite of mine, and the dessert shooters just give you a chance to have fun with the "arts and crafts" part of baking. It's also a chance for you to show your personality in the sweets you present because you can have any number of options. Pick your favorite dessert and figure out how to serve it in a shooter glass.
If you try any of these, I'd love to hear what you createad and even see a picture of your creations.
Here are a few of the recipes that I used to achieve the chocolate-salted caramel mousse, pumpkin flan, pomegranate lemonade and tres leches dessert shooters.

What Is Tonalism? (12 Essential Characteristics)
David Adams Cleveland
Tonalist painter Franklin De Haven began in the 1880s with exquisitely poetic landscapes, but by 1900 his canvases gained a gestural power and sinuous energy. The charged emotional quality of his late work was due largely to his method of rendering form with flourishes of paint marks. In his scenes of swaying trees and roiling thunderclouds, De Haven balanced soft-edged masses with notes of sharp linear contour; his most expressionistic canvases speak of a joy and exuberance in the outdoors, where the artist spent much of the summer. Wet-into-wet facture, scumbling, and scraped pigment—sometimes with the butt of a paint brush or palette knife edge—give a tactility to his canvas surfaces, not unlike the weathered and eroded face of the land itself. Often his pigment is dragged, flattened, and treated almost like relief sculpture, offering itself as a physical or embodied metaphor for the activating forces behind nature.

God's Love We Deliver
166 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY 10013
Tel: 212.294.8100
Fax: 212.294.8101
God's Love We Deliver turned 30 years old on May 1, 2015.
We began with the simple principle that no one should ever have to face the dual crises of illness and hunger. We brought meals to home-bound people living with HIV/AIDS. Today, with your support, we've grown, expanded and reached some amazing milestones:
- Over 8,000 annual volunteers help us each year
- We cook and deliver over 1.3 million meals each year
- This winter, we cooked and delivered our 16 millionth meal
- We now serve clients with over 200 unique diagnoses
So much has changed in our 30 years, but our core values have not. Every day our clients struggle with malnutrition, hunger, illness and isolation. When they contact God's Love, they find a community who cares deeply about them. Together, we are dedicated to cooking and delivering the individually-tailored meals and nutrition counseling our clients require at a time in their lives when they need it most. We do this - free of charge - with dignity, respect and compassion.
For the next twelve months, we'll be doing things - big and small - to celebrate and remember our 30th Anniversary. In May, we will recognize 30 people and organizations who have played an important role in the history of God's Love.
Without the help of our amazing volunteers - 8,000 strong every year - we simply would not be able to cook and deliver over 5,400 delicious and nutritious meals each weekday to our neighbors in need. Outnumbering our staff by a ratio of more than 100 to 1, volunteers work in the kitchen, deliver and package meals, work in our office and help out with special events. Our dedicated volunteers come from all walks of life, building friendships and relationships across shifts. We pride ourselves on the strong sense of community among our volunteers and staff.
For thirty years, because of our volunteers, we can deliver love and hope, all wrapped up in nutritious meals, to our clients.

Nelly, "M.O." (Republic Records)
Nelly's seventh studio album isn't a total waste of time if you have the patience to get through the first half.
"M.O." starts with the most boring, ear-numbing collaborations, including the first two singles — the somewhat catchy "Hey Porsche" and the smooth, yet derivative "Get Like Me," Pharrell's only puzzling contribution. The better tracks flourish when Nelly doesn't require serious vocal backup from other artists such as Trey Songz, 2 Chainz, Nelly Furtado and Nicki Minaj.
"IDGAF," featuring T.I. and Pharrell, takes off to the dance floor perfectly and the seemingly self-effacing "Rick James" is an ebullient hymn to the party life in bass steps. "Shake Whatever" is a time-bending track blending arcade game sounds with tribal drums, while "Mo's Focused" grinds slowly and smolders the airwaves. "Maryland, Massachusetts" is the one track that echoes Nelly's earlier work and showcases his distinctive vocals — otherwise he sadly tends to hide behind his guests' voices and styles.
Nelly, who had a massive hit this year with "Cruise" alongside Florida Georgia Line, collaborates with the country duo again on "Walk Away." It bounces and rounds off the genre mix of the album with an upbeat country hook.
"M.O." is not a Sunday float parade to leave the house for, but it does keep you leaning down your window from time to time.

Earlier this fall, my friends got together and placed friendly bets on when the first measurable snow would fall in East Middlebury. My bet was for October 28th, so I was excited earlier this week to read forecasts of accumulating snow on Thursday night. Then, yesterday morning, the snow was all but removed from the forecast!
So, what gives? Why do the forecasts seem to change so much? Are the meteorologists just guessing? Is there a forecaster bias towards dramatic (or comfortable) weather? Or, is there something else going on?
These days most weather forecasts are based on meteorologists' interpretations of a range of computer weather models that use current conditions, past weather records, and other factors to project possible future weather. These weather models have allowed for the existence of modern, relatively accurate weather forecasts, but they are not without their downsides. They have a tendency to change their 'minds' at the last minute, and are subject to bias and error. During times of changing weather, such as spring and fall, they are especially erratic. To make things worse, they have a very difficult time forecasting hurricanes, and it could be that Hurricane Rina is causing yet more confusion for the weather models. This, in turn, leads to a fluctuating forecast, and an unknown prospect for tomorrow morning.
The computer models often have difficulty forecasting which areas will get rain versus snow because just a couple of degrees can determine the precipitation type. For example, the heavy snowstorm of last March was initially predicted to be almost entirely rain. The temperature was a bit colder than expected, and instead of two inches of drenching rain on snow, we picked up two feet of wet snow. For this week, the question isn't the temperature as much as where the storm will go. Right now, the possible snowstorm seems to be slipping just south of us, leaving only light drizzle in Addison County. It is expected to be in the mid 20s tonight, so if the storm shifts north a bit we may experience some light snowfall. There is another storm that may move through the Northeast on Saturday, and the computer models can't quite figure this storm out either, but it looks like it may also miss our area.
October snow is not uncommon in Addison County, but is usually mostly restricted to the mountains. Salisbury averages 0.5 inches of snow in October, but in more cases than not does not pick up measurable snow in October at all. South Lincoln, in the Green Mountains, averages a bit over two inches of October snow, and averages one snowy October day each year.
This year, it looks like the peaks will pick up some October snow, but the lowlands may not see any accumulation. As of earlier this morning, Middlebury Snow Bowl was reporting snow, but here in East Middlebury there was very cold rain. But, outside my window right now, I see a few wet snowflakes flitting by. The weather is sure to surprise us, one way or another. There is still a chance that tomorrow morning we will wake up to a dusting of white.
Either way, we can be sure the snow will come, sooner or later.

NH businesses worry over internet speed changes after FCC voteBy MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
December 14. 2017 12:56AM
MANCHESTER — Several New Hampshire businesses are urging the feds to preserve rules that prevent internet service providers from creating faster-speed lanes for certain websites or making the internet less democratic.
"Under this change, internet providers would gain new powers to steer businesses and customers one way or another," said a letter from eight New England businesses, including Stonyfield Farm in Londonderry.
The letter, sent to congressional offices in New England, said an expected Thursday vote before the Federal Communications Commission on whether to repeal the net neutrality rules would have "a crippling effect on rural economies, further restricting access to the internet for rural businesses at a point in time where we need to expand and speed this access instead."
Supporters of ending the neutrality rules, including FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, said the concerns are overblown.
Pai said ending the Obama-era net neutrality rules would bring back "light touch" regulations from a previous era when providers mostly stuck with neutrality ideas anyway. He said much of the fuss about net neutrality is really about Silicon Valley giants trying to "cement their dominance over the internet economy."
A Comcast official on Wednesday said the internet provider didn't plan to create fast lanes.
"Comcast customers will continue to enjoy all of the benefits of an open internet today, tomorrow, and in the future," said David Cohen, Comcast's senior executive vice president and chief diversity officer. "We've said consistently we've not entered into paid prioritization agreements and have no plans to do so."
Londonderry's FoodState, which produces and distributes the premium supplement brands MegaFood and Innate Response, and the Boloco restaurant in Hanover also signed on to the letter.
Britt Lundgren, Stonyfield's director of organic and sustainable agriculture, said, "I am not optimistic about the FCC vote (today), but my hope is Congress will do the right thing and fix it."
Boloco's website on Wednesday carried the message: "The FCC is about to vote on its plan to kill net neutrality. We have just days to stop censorship, throttling and extra fees online. Congress needs to hear from Internet users like you right now."
Throttling lowers the speed of information traveling over the internet.
A new survey by the University of Maryland showed 83 percent of Americans — including 75 percent of Republicans — support keeping the existing rules after being presented detailed arguments on both sides.
The FCC vote to repeal current net neutrality rules "should concern New Hampshire Internet users," said Toral Cowieson, chair of the New Hampshire High-Tech Council.
Internet service providers could compromise the "free flow of information, competition on the marketplace, consumer choice and privacy protections," said Cowieson, who also is senior director of internet leadership at the Internet Society, an organization working to keep the internet open and transparent.
The Washington Post contributed to this report.

Anywho, I'm afraid I disagree with your proposal here:cairnswk wrote:isaiah40 wrote:I think that 19 troops between the two territories would be good as this will prevent any chance of anyone getting wiped out first turn.

OK, we'll start off with 19 trooops between the two territories, but let's go for 12 on the front territory and 7 one the tribe.
does anyone agree with that?
You are giving the first player far too much power. A 12 on the front territory plus a deploy could do tons of damage in one turn, potentially knocking the second player (in a 1v1 situation) down multiple territories, reducing said player's territory bonus down by at least 1, though likely more - 2 or even 3. Granted, Player 1 opens up his tribe, but it has a solid 7 on it, and if he's smart he'd wipe out as many regions of yours around his tribe as possible, then fort troops back to guard. With a smaller amount for the territory connecting to the tribe, it creates a delay in accessing the extra troops - sufficient time for Player 2 to collect his bonus and decide what he wants to do before Player 1 strikes.
Don't apologise for debating this Sully, i'm pleased your throwing in different aspects.
I see what you're saying.
Is there any way then that the maximum bonus/deployment received can be limited by using the xml?

Crude prices will continue to drop, but gas prices won't because of tight refinery capacity, Strategic Energy Advisors Chairman Tom Petrie said Friday on CNBC.
"We're on a knife edge, but seasonally we're coming out of the driving season, so it shouldn't last too long," he said on "Fast Money."
California has been hit by soaring gas prices in recent days, a situation Petrie said would last another two to four weeks.
(Read More: Gasoline Prices Set to Rise Through Election Day)
Petrie also pointed out a couple of factors that could affect crude oil prices: Possible regime change in Iran and elections in Venezuela.
"On the crude side, we're amply supplied. It probably gets bigger next year," he said. "We've had a big insecurity premium in the price of oil for most of the year, $15 to $20. That gets eroded in the next three to six months."
Prices, he said, could drop to $70 per barrel. "I think we test into the 80s, low 80s and into the 70s before it's over."
Drakon Capital's Guy Adami said he didn't think gasoline prices would fall, making such companies as Valero, Tesoro and Phillips 66 attractive.
"Crude's not the problem. We have enough crude out there," he said. "It's refiner capacity, which is why I think still these refiners are trades and why I still think gasoline continues to go higher, unfortunately."
OptionMonster.com's Jon Najarian also liked Phillips 66; "They are hitting on all cylinders."
Speculation in the options market has led to increased out-of-the-money call buying in names such as Williams and Murphy Oil .
"I really think Marathon Petroleum is another name you can keep an eye on," said OptionMonster.com's Pete Najarian.
Petrie also added that he expected an increase in mergers and acquisitions within the sector.
"Consolidation is coming, more in the upstream than in the integrated side. There's not enough to consolidate there anymore," he said, adding that abundant capital and pent-up demand would drive it.
"We've seen very little corporate consolidation over the past 6 years," he added. "It's going to pick up."

Jin, noooooooooooo!!!
Just when Jin and Yunoha started to over the main character(s), disaster happens...I would rather watch Jin x Yunoha all day than Kagura speaking all those non-sense...
Speaking of Kagura...I really don't like him (actually I kind of hate him)...he has never been a sane person for the entire series...I really don't care whether he is being controlled or mind raped...enough is enough and I wish to see him less in the future (unfortunately tho Kagura seems to have a big role in the future episodes)

-first the introduction, etc. The interpreter guy asks Hanazawa about Jessica as a character, we get the usual description.
-then I think he asks if Hanazawa is like Jessica in some way, because Hanazawa answers that she's not as hot as Zessica (cue huge reaction from crowd, embarrassment from Hanazawa), but there are some similarities, and Hanazawa is also afraid of ghosts.
-then something happens that makes the crowd cheer and she's all embarrassed and says "thank you" - after this she says some lines in Zessica's voice so I think it was connected to that. Someone who speaks Chinese could probably say more about this...
-then Kawamori takes over, says the usual pleasantries, mentions that he feels the audience has strong element powers.
-Kawamori says something about how Aquarion is in Japan, I can't hear it because of the noise. Then he goes on saying that the story is still ongoing and gradually we'll learn the answers to the the questions, the legend is unfolding, please continue watching the show, etc - btw I can only hear the keywords but from those it seems to be the usual, really. No mention of Amata, or any other character at all, at least from what I can hear.
-then Kawamori grabs an Aquarion Evol T-shirt, apparently he signed a number of those. Then he models another T-shirt that says "gattai is forbidden"
-then back to Hanazawa, she's happy for the audience's support, etc. Then she does some fanservice and tries to say "Hong Kong gattai" in Chinese and it's insanely cute.
So yeah, sorry. As I wrote in the Zessica thread someone who speaks Chinese could check the Chinese part but I didn't hear anything about Amata, let alone Amata x Zessica in the Japanese talk.

I'll confirm, at least from what I heard, that Amata's name was never mentioned...
... Unless its in the Chinese section, or was somewhere in the mess of cheering. That being said, didn't we have something along those lines as a spoiler way, way back? Or am I misremembering? I feel like this isn't the first time I've seen that rumor but maybe it wasn't here? (Perhaps I was listening for the wrong thing in the video, mayhaps the key words were not *Amata* or somesuch but episode numbers... but I don't remember that either. )

But, even they did little to clear up the audio. There's only so much the headphones can do, and last I checked they cannot go back in time and re-record audio in better quality. (I wish they could...)

Kawamori's pineapple has finally made its move. Sad really, I am a huge fan of JinxYunoha, but you don't start a storm unless you fan it hard, eh?
Plenty of revelations this week. I would say the most important is the conversation between Fudou and Mykage. All this reincarnation business, it's starting to confuse me but at the same time, one of the main reasons I am watching this.
For those mourning Jin, I have but 1 quote for you:
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live. - Marcus Aurelius
In all the years he exists, I don't think he actually knows what shinyuu means and more importantly, love- the passion,the tenderness, and the warmth feeling. His experience in Neo-Deava has allowed him to experience these two aspects, and he dies almost immediately after that. In my eyes, dying in the arms of your loved one is sad and tragic (especially when you think about the-what-could-have-been between Jin and Yunoha) but at the same time, it's a pretty good "send-off" because the last sight he sets his eyes upon is his beloved Yunoha.

After the ending credits rolled little tears on my eyes would stream downward on my cheeks.
It was so emotionally immerse and more sentimentally deep into the characters for Yunoha and Jin, that I won't discuss anything else in this episode but what happened to those two.
Kawamori-san is always amazing building organically so precious themes for everlasting love and the human spirit, because they show us how frail each life is and how flawed people are. Yet, despite those flaws, something precious that we can feel for ourselves can guide us to turn into the right direction by just choosing what's right from what's easy.
There couldn't be better performance than Jin's conflict with his character to choose whether kidnap Yunoha to fulfill his mission, or finally admitting to himself that he has found he truly loves her.
Yunoha's sincerest innocence and her shedding her tears of sadness made Jin to understand what he chooses for himself: not to make Yunoha see her in tears again; to me he found the courage to let it out that he loves after all and cares for everyone and everything surrounding her.
Just I felt like Fudo enraged and emotionally drenched.
I forgot to mention due to this very beautiful episode they slightly modified the current ending to include Jin in the main cast as a posthumous tribute.

Public Meetings Scheduled for "Deer Czar" Ideas
- Published in News
Wisconsinites are being asked to share their ideas for carrying out the "Deer Czar's" recommendations.
The D-N-R will hold seven public meetings at U-W Stevens Point to get input from hunters and others interested in how the state's deer herd should be managed. They'll be asked to suggest ways to adopt 62 proposals made by James Kroll and his team of deer researchers. The first meeting is set for Saturday, March 9th. The D-N-R has created four "action teams" to focus on the general areas of regulations and deer seasons – science and research – deer health, including chronic wasting disease – and the new "D-MAP" deer management assistance program. Almost two dozen other states use "D-MAP," a system in which hunters and landowners work together with the state to manage deer and other habitat on specific lands. All four action teams will meet at the same time at Stevens Point – so groups with an interest in more than one area are being told to bring more than one person. Besides the March session, meetings are planned April sixth and 27th, May 18th, June 8th and 29th, and July 20th. The ideas will then be considered in the D-N-R's rule-making process. Governor Scott Walker has included funding in his state budget to carry out Kroll's recommendations.

Houndstooth Dovetails
This joint adds strength and beauty to any corner. And it's easier to cut than you might suspect.

I first saw this joint illustrated in "The Encyclopedia of Furniture Making," by Ernest Joyce (Sterling). I was fascinated by the complexity of it and for years wished I could cut them myself.
When I finally cut the joint, I realized the only difficult part was the initial layout; the rest was a matter of sawing and chiseling to the line.
I have since been teaching others to cut them and most would agree that it is not as hard as it looks. If you have mastered the through dovetail, this is like cutting two of them at once. There are some tools that will make the job easier. In addition to the proper tools, there are a few tips I have picked up that should help the novice – and maybe the professional.

Here's a delightful piece of regulatory police work. The Securities and Exchange Commission brought a case today against Lawrence Robbins, a former accountant and current independent film producer who seems to have funded his films by insider trading ahead of corporate takeovers.
It alleges that Scott Allen, who worked at a human resources consultancy, found out about some pending takeovers, and he told his friend John Michael Bennett, and then Bennett told his friend and business partner (in film production), Robbins. Bennett and Allen pleaded guilty to criminal insider trading a while back, while Robbins -- who was one further step removed from the source of the inside information -- settled a civil SEC case today by agreeing to pay back about a million dollars without admitting or denying the accusations.
Like a lot of SEC insider trading complaints, you can read this one as a how-to guide for insider trading though, I mean, you could also just not do that. You are free to be a law-abiding citizen. I will do the former but purely for entertainment purposes, this is not legal advice, or illegal advice I guess, don't actually do any of these things.
Obviously Rule No. 1 of insider trading is that if you're an insider -- like an HR consultant on a merger -- you shouldn't trade. You'll get caught. So you tell your friend, and your friend trades, and then he hands you a bag of cash. Division of labor! These guys got that part down: Allen never traded a share, says the SEC, and Bennett paid him with bags of cash.*
Also, you don't tell your friend stuff on a recorded phone line. These guys managed that, though they did occasionally communicate on un-recorded phone calls, which is also sub-optimal, since the SEC can cite phone records showing that Allen called Bennett on days that he learned new information.**
Most important, you keep your hand-offs of bags of cash secret. Really, though, this seems like it should have worked:
For example, on July 1, 2008, Bennett withdrew $5,200 from a Citibank branch located near his office at 10:52 am. Allen swiped his Metrocard at the 47-50 Rockefeller Center subway stop (the subway stop closest to Allen's office) at 12:36 pm and then again at the 59 Street Columbus Circle subway stop (the subway stop closest to Bennett's office) at 1:54pm. Also on July 1, 2008, Allen had an appointment on his Outlook Calendar for 1 pm entitled "BR @ 1," and Bennett had a $106.80 credit card charge at Blue Ribbon Sushi, a restaurant located in the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle.
I like it! The temptation to write "Secret Insider Trading Tip-Off Meeting & Bag of Cash Handoff" on your Outlook calendar is no doubt strong, but Allen successfully resisted it. And one does think of the subway as being pretty anonymous. Next time I guess buy a $10 Metrocard with cash?***
Of course, nobody thinks the SEC will be reconstructing his mass transit trips, and generally the SEC won't be. The problem here is that these guys violated one of the most important insider trading rules, which is, don't trade in a way that makes it obvious you are insider trading. What that means is: Don't buy out-of-the-money short-dated call options.**** You know Company X is getting bought for $25 next week? Great, buy some Company X stock. Don't put on a giant bet that only pays off if Company X is getting bought for $25 next week:
In an account at Merrill Lynch, Robbins purchased a total of 2,351 out-of-the-money call options between Friday, February 29, 2008 and Thursday, March 6, 2008. Specifically, Robbins purchased: (i) 125 May $17.50 call options and 75 May $15 call options on Friday, February 29; (ii) 1,100 May $20 call options on Monday, March 3; (iii) 751 May $20 call options on Wednesday, March 5, 2008; and (iv) 300 May $20 call options on Thursday, March 6, 2008.

Marmota bobak
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Marmota bobak Muller, 1776
|Regional Assessments:
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Notes:
|Includes three subspecies: M. b. bobak Muller, 1776 (Ukraine, European part of Russia); M. b. kozlovi Fokanov, 1966 (Volga River region, right bank around Saratov City); M. b. schaganensis Bazhanov, 1930 (the rest of the range).
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Least Concern ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Tsytsulina, K., Zagorodnyuk, I., Formozov, N. & Sheftel, B.
|Amori, G.
The population experienced severe decline in the past, but these declines ended well over 10 years (3 generations) ago. The species is now stable and abundant within its present range in Europe. Consequently it is assessed as Least Concern.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|At the beginning of the 20th century the species was distributed along whole steppe zone from W Ukraine through Russia and Kazakhstan to the Irtysh River. However, in the first half of the 20th century hunting and habitat loss (ploughing of steppes and conversion to arable land) significantly reduced the range of bobak marmot in the European steppes. By the 1940s the European range of the bobak marmot had become fragmented into isolated populations in unused land and protected areas. Currently the majority of the range is in the Urals and N Kazakhstan.
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Kazakhstan; Russian Federation; Ukraine
|Additional data:
|Range Map:
|Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
|Formerly the species was common and abundant along the whole steppe zone from W Ukraine to the Irtysh River. By the 1940s the European population and range had declined dramatically, and the species was restricted to isolated fragments of habitat in uncultivated areas and nature reserves. In the 1960s in both Russia and Ukraine hunting was prohibited, and marmot populations in these countries subsequently increased and are now considered stable. In N Kazakhstan, by contrast, the population has not recovered and remains at low density, but in central Kazakhstan the population is increasing. The species was reintroduced to a number of locations in the early 1980s, and the species has also naturally recolonised many areas.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|It inhabits a variety of steppe habitats, including lowland, mixed grass, arid, and wormwood (Artemisia) steppes. Forms colonies consisting of several families. Burrows are complex, and may be up to 4-5 m in depth. There are summer and winter burrows, both with pronounced mounds. Does not stock up for winter; instead hibernates for at least six months a year. Enters hibernation at different times in differents parts of the range, leaves hibernation in late March-April. Feeds on green parts, bulbs, flowers and shoots of grasses. Sensitive to moisture in food and in overly dry conditions enters estivation. Reproduces once a year with litter size of 4 to 7 young.
|Generation Length (years):
|Congregatory (and dispersive)
|Use and Trade:
|It is hunted.
|Major Threat(s):
|Severe population and range reductions in the early to mid 20th century were caused by excessive hunting and habitat loss (cultivation of steppe grassland). Some illegal hunting continues.
|Conservation Actions:
|At present, there are no special conservation measures except hunting prohibition. In the early 1980s re-introductions were carried out in a number of locations. In the European part of the range the bobak marmot occurs in protected areas, where it survived during the period of severe population decline in the early to mid 20th century.
|Errata reason:
|This errata assessment has been created because the map was accidentally left out of the version published previously.
|Tsytsulina, K., Zagorodnyuk, I., Formozov, N. & Sheftel, B. 2016. Marmota bobak (errata version published in 2017). The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species 2016: e.T12830A115106780. . Downloaded on 15 October 2018.

"Back in the 80s, the Commodore C-64 had an intelligent floppy drive, the 1541, i.e. an external unit that had its own CPU and everything. The C-64 would send commands to the drive which in turn would then execute them on its own, reading files, and such, then send the data to the C-64, all over a propriatory serial cable. The manual for the 1541 mentioned, besides the commands for reading and writing files, that one would read and write to its internal memory space. Even more exciting was that one could download 6502 code into the drive's memory and have it executed there. This got me hooked and I wanted to play with that - execute code on the drive. Of course, there was no documention on what code could be executed there, and which functions it could use." Very interesting. I'm most interested in how he describes others taking his work, and making it better. This would be impossible today, thanks to Microsoft, Apple, and other patent trolls.
