Clinton High gave a poor impression of a 1-5 team in last night's game against longtime rival Nashoba Regional.
The Gaels (1-5) ignored the second-ranked Chieftains' press clippings and unbeaten record and came close to pulling off a major upset, playing Nashoba evenly until senior running back John Ojukwu rushed for a third-quarter touchdown to give the Chieftains a 7-0 victory.
Nashoba (6-0) was held to single-digit scoring for the first time this season.
"A win is a win and we'll take it, but Clinton deserves a lot of credit," Nashoba coach Ken Tucker said. "Clinton came in here and did a lot of things that we didn't expect — on defense, in particular. We didn't execute. But we found a way to win. We made enough adjustments to come out and move the ball in the second half."
After a defensive stop on the first series of the second half, Nashoba senior Brady Schartner returned a punt 11 yards to his own 46. The Chieftains eventually reached the Clinton 20 on a 9-yard rush by junior Frankie Chiodo.
Runs by Ojukwu, senior Andrew Cross and senior fullback Zach Hume advanced Nashoba to the 8-yard line. Ojukwu rushed into the end zone from there for a TD. Junior Drew Korn kicked the extra point.
Nashoba had a chance to add to its lead on its next possession, moving to the Clinton 6-yard line. But the Gaels held and the Chieftains attempted a field goal that was blocked.
Clinton was hurt by poor field position throughout the second half and was unable to mount any serious drives. Nashoba senior Charlie Phaneuf intercepted a pass with less than a minute to go.
"Our kids played their hearts out — the whole week, they were saying, 'Believe, believe,' which is their motto," Clinton coach Paul Constantino said. "It was a great effort. No moral victories — we're hurting. But it was a great football game. We knew we would have trouble moving the ball and in the second half, we never had field position. But we played a lot better than we've been playing."
The Gaels got a solid game from senior quarterback Kyle Cutler, who had an interception on defense in the first quarter. Senior Matt Notaro, senior Matt McEvilly and junior Rony Noel sparked the running game.

Alongside a series of cuts that will reduce welfare spending by £18 billion per year by 2014–15, the UK government announced in November 2010 plans to integrate and simplify means-tested welfare benefits and in-work tax credits for working-age adults into a single programme, to be known as Universal Credit and to be phased in from October 2013. The aims were to make it easier for claimants to claim benefits, to make the gains to work more transparent and to reduce the amount spent on administration and lost in fraud and error. More households will see entitlements rise from the move to Universal Credit considered in isolation than will see entitlements fall; in aggregate, entitlements will rise by nearly £1.1 billion a year. Low-income families will see their entitlements rise by more than high-income families, on average, and couples will gain more from the reform, on average, than single-adult families, especially if there are also children in the family. In general, those facing the weakest incentive to work at all, or the weakest incentive to increase earnings, see their incentives strengthened, including those with very low earnings and hours worked per week and those who at present experience simultaneous withdrawal of multiple means-tested benefits and tax credits. But a Council Tax Benefit that operates separately from Universal Credit, and that has rules that vary across English local authorities, could easily undermine many of the supposed advantages of Universal Credit.

Plots to ponder
This grave is of an auctioneer, who was strangled in his bed,' says Patricia Lim. Is that a touch of glee in her voice? Turns out he was an 'awful man' in the mid-1800s who treated his Chinese servants despicably until they tired of his treatment and left, only to return with the man who killed him.
'The murderer then fled to his home village in southern China,' Lim says as she wanders along the grass and shrubs between the grey stone graves. 'But the British sent gunboats and threatened to shell the village if the people there did not hand over the killer. He was returned to Hong Kong and hanged.'
The former Happy Valley Cemetery, set up in 1845, stands quietly on a hillside from the main road opposite the racecourse. While the shrubs and bird sound make for a serene backdrop, don't be fooled. There's blood, guts, murder, piracy and revolutionaries that await those looking for the tales behind the stones. That's partly what attracted Lim to first research all the stones, and then write a social history about the people buried here.
Germans, Russians, Freemasons from several countries, Chinese, British, Americans and Eurasians among others mix genteelly in their final resting place. For those buried even up to the mid 20th century they probably mixed better in death than they did in life, with prejudice, lack of understanding, a sense of racial superiority and societal norms dictating that Hong Kong Chinese and Eurasians were second class.
Travellers giving early talks back in London would talk of the 'tricky' Chinese, says Lim, 'who were 'not to be trusted, you couldn't tell what they were thinking. They're all liars'. This carried on for decades, it's extraordinary.'
Several Norfolk pines rise majestically - testament to a time when their wood was used for the masts of Hong Kong's thriving shipping trade. Bird sound competes with the roar of the traffic coming in and out of the Aberdeen tunnel.
'I think it's a very peaceful place,' says Lim, who has spent hundreds of hours here, initially tracking every grave with fellow historian Ko Tim-keung as a voluntary project. 'But I found there were so many interesting stories of these people buried here that I wanted to find out more.'
So beginning at the gravesite, Lim then used diary accounts, newspaper reports from the day, books, the public records office, and the collection of the late Reverend Carl Smith, who tracked thousands of people in Hong Kong and wrote their details on cards. 'His collection was invaluable,' says Lim.
The result is Forgotten Souls: A Social History of the Hong Kong Cemetery published by Hong Kong University Press and one of the Royal Asiatic Society Hong Kong Studies series. It takes the stories of the people found by Lim among the 8,000 graves that still exist - 2,000 were demolished to make way for the Aberdeen tunnel - and breathes life into them, explaining the times in which they lived. The book encompasses the first decades of British rule in Hong Kong and provides a useful social history, a start on which Lim says others should build. 'I've barely scratched the surface, I'm hoping others will take up where I've left off,' she says.
Life in early colonial Hong Kong was grim. The average age of death for soldiers and police officers brought in from Britain was just 30. There are poignant small graves of children, gripped by disease after being given contaminated water.
'Henry Lovett here was murdered in 1853 by pirates,' says Lim. 'His ship was taken over by two of the passengers in the Chinese portion of the crew. The other English passengers jumped overboard and were never seen again. He was the ship's captain and was found with his guts hanging out and his poor, badly wounded bulldog standing by his side.'
Even the most adverse circumstances were no excuse to scrimp on decorum. 'Matilda Sharp, when in Vietnam on a shipping expedition with her husband, was waylaid by pirates after the ship was wrecked. She and her husband got on to a lifeboat, but beforehand she asked her amah to help her put on her crinoline and hooped skirt, as she said she had felt like a closed umbrella all day and looked awful.'
Then there were those who rebelled against the empress dowager at the start of the 20th century, and a man who Sun Yat-sen regarded as a proxy father. But what surprised Lim were the later graves such as the men who died in a plane crash just after the second world war with all the evidence on board to prosecute senior Japanese officers for war crimes. Then there were the young crew members who died in a shootout with a mainland gunboat in 1953.
There's also, somewhere, the grave of three mafoos and a horse, all hastily buried during the war - possibly after the Happy Valley stables were bombed. 'I don't know where that is,' says Lim, 'how big was the hole?'
Born Patricia DeFonblanque ('It's so much easier to spell Lim, isn't it?'), the grandmother of five comes from a line of French Huguenots, who converted to Catholicism. She was born in Pakistan to British army parents in 1934 - and then proceeded to have a charmed childhood. 'I was told I was sent back to Britain as a baby, but because the nanny had another baby as well as me to look after, I was neglected and I nearly died.
'I was in England during the war, but we then went to Berlin. I was in the Berlin Airlift. But the original plane I was supposed to be on crashed. I had chickenpox, and had to wait for another one.'
After Cambridge University, 'I had to get a job very quickly and the only one I could get was with MI5. I did telephone tapping, which was extremely boring. We listened out for Communists. It wasn't Islamic terrorists in those days. It was MPs communicating with Moscow.'
After becoming a teacher, Lim married Singaporean Po Chye and came to Hong Kong permanently 30 years ago. 'At the beginning my husband was very doubtful about [the project on the Happy Valley cemetery] because Chinese aren't very enamoured of cemeteries.
'But I don't find it creepy at all. Though there was one day I became so engrossed in what I was doing I forgot the time and when I got back to the gate, it was locked. So I had to climb out.'

Wine Maker Notes
Our Pinot Noir's personality comes from our two Acacia estate vineyards in the windswept Los Carneros American Viticultural Area (AVA): the picturesque Lone Tree Vineyard, on the rolling hills surrounding the winery, and Winery Lake Vineyard, just a couple of miles away. The widely diverse clones and soils found in these vineyards contribute layers of flavors and texture to our Pinot Noir. Bright, balanced acidity is retained in the grapes by the cool marine winds.
Food Pairing
This wine is an easy match for roasted meats such as lamb. Duck sausage is also a natural for this Pinot Noir.

Xbox 1.1 And Matrix...
Posted 20 May 2003 - 09:11 PM
i heard that with a Xbox 1.1 and a MAtrix mod on mode 1, it was ALLways flash Red, is this true? If so i've just spent1 hours aligning it, and it's been a waste, lmao!
Posted 21 May 2003 - 09:43 AM
Posted 22 May 2003 - 07:12 PM
Posted 22 May 2003 - 07:14 PM
it will flash green for half a second then flash red
for the rest of the time.
Posted 22 May 2003 - 07:20 PM
Posted 23 May 2003 - 12:22 PM
So I just soldered this D0 point to the pin but it just wont load the bios (3 times booting thing) : This cant be a alignement pb !!!
Im going mad with this damn matrix modchip
Now I will try another bios but without any feeling about it
Posted 23 May 2003 - 04:30 PM
I flashed the chip on my PC with many BIOSes but it's always the same: when I install the Matrix in my Xbox it blinks shortly green and then red in test mode (okay for Xbox 1.1).
Then I change the mode to mode 2 and it boots 3 times...
I don't think it tries to read from CD and so it would be hard to install EvolutionX.
Does anybody know why this 3-boot-thing is?
What do I have to do to get it running??? Can you hear the desperation in my words

|QUOTE (ranciddc @ May 22 2003, 09:20 PM)
|...How are we to know when the thing is aligned???
I think this is the important question.
I always verify when flashing the chip, I don't think that's the cause.
But since test mode doesn't work correctly on 1.1 it is hard to find out whether Matrix is aligned.
Posted 23 May 2003 - 09:10 PM
Posted 23 May 2003 - 11:03 PM
Posted 24 May 2003 - 03:55 AM
If there is a proper alignment, the Matrix will flash green for a second and than it will flash red. This, however, doesn't put one into the clear. If you change the Matrix to mode 2, 3, or 4, and you get the unbearable on-off, on-off, on-off, this means that you really didn't have a proper alignment.
The easiest fix for this (depending on how you look at it), will be to take out the motherboard, solder a wire to the alternate d0 site, and take the other end and solder it to the top of the Matrix d0 pogo pin. It may sound difficult, but it's actually quite easy to do. Remember to put a piece of electrical tape over the original d0 point, so there isn't any contact between the pogo pin and the motherboard. The LPC points should still be making contact with the pogo pins on the Matrix.
Hope this helps
Posted 24 May 2003 - 11:38 AM
I finally get it !!!
But not without a big soldering work:
I first solder the D0 point but this won't be efficient...
So I finally decided to solder this LCP points to the matrix and...
It finally works well!!!
Sure that is the best way to get all the contacts in this modchip really effective
So if U dont want to solder all this point, just take really care about this LCP points because they are the ones which makes problems (in my case): u can try to fill these points with ur iron and some soldering material (that s wont work for me but I didnt understand why)
I had the same problem with all people in this topic with my v1.1 xbox so if u have a good mode alignement and still the 3 times booting thing just think about the LCP points...
I hope it'll work for U as it works for me
Posted 24 May 2003 - 07:32 PM
I racked my brain trying to get the d0 point connected correctly and must have resoldered the thing 4 times before doing a bit more reading and finding out that mode 1 doesn't even work. I then went right back and switched it to mode 2 and I get a solid green light now.
I do have a different problem though ... I am getting the whole 3-boot cycle with the flashing red/green power light. has anyone found a solid reasoning for this problem and how to fix it?
I am pretty damn sure it doesn't have to do with my d0 connection, since its soldered together. I haven't filed my lpc holes, but I wanted to see if anyone has other ideas about this problem. It seemed to me that the lpc holes shouldn't really matter that much.

A Great Box Set!!,
This review is from: Little Mosque On The Prairie: Season 1 (DVD)
I picked up the Little Mosque on the Prairie season 1 dvd box set and it's a home run. The first season only had 8 episodes (I think this season that's currently airing has 20) but the box set has great added extras including inside the writers room and some interesting interviews with the show's key actors. If you love the show than you'll luv the dvd. I have alot of friends who love the show and will be getting this dvd from me as a christmas/hannukah/eid present. Look forward to seeing when season 2 comes out in box set as well. Little Mosque on the Prairie ROCKS!

Leave it to Cary Williams to say what few players were willing to express three days before the winner-take-all season finale in Dallas:
Win or lose Sunday against the Cowboys, the Eagles' 2013 season - Chip Kelly's first in the NFL - has been an unmitigated success.
"I think about that every day, especially when I look at the [9-6] record and I look at what guys experienced last year winning only four games," Williams said. "I think this a huge turnaround. I think this is a positive season regardless of what happens this Sunday."
For the majority of the other Eagles polled, it was understandably difficult to look past the Cowboys and to an offseason of reflection. They're a victory from the postseason and have as good a chance as the other 11 playoff teams of winning it all considering the last decade of Super Bowl winners.

Archbishop Rodi to give "Last Lecture" at Spring Hill College Sept. 18
Mobile, Ala. — The Most Rev. Thomas J. Rodi, Archbishop of Mobile, will be the speaker at the Spring Hill College "Last Lecture Series" at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 18 in Byrne Memorial Hall. The lecture is sponsored by Alpha Sigma Nu and the Freshman LEAP Program and is open to the college community.
Archbishop Rodi, a native of New Orleans, graduated from De La Salle High School in 1967 and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Georgetown University in 1971. He returned to New Orleans where he earned a law degree from the Tulane University Law School in 1974, and then entered Notre Dame Seminary, where he received a master of divinity degree in 1978.
Archbishop Rodi was ordained to the priesthood on May 20, 1978, and served as associate pastor at St. Ann and St. Christopher the Martyr parishes, in Metairie, and at St. Agnes in Jefferson.
In 1983 he was appointed judge for the Archdiocese of New Orleans Metropolitan Tribunal. He earned a licentiate in canon law from The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., in 1986, and served as professor of canon law at Notre Dame Seminary from 1986 to 1995.
Archbishop Rodi served in New Orleans as director of the Office of Religious Education from 1988 to 1989, and as executive director of the Department of Pastoral Services from 1989 to 1996.
In addition to his other duties, Archbishop Rodi was chancellor for the Archdiocese of New Orleans in 1992, and in 1996, he was named vicar general and moderator of the curia. In 1992, he was named a prelate of honor (a monsignor) by Pope John Paul II. He was ordained a bishop and installed as bishop of Biloxi on July 2, 2001 and was appointed Archbishop of Mobile on April 2, 2008 and installed on June 6, 2008.
The "Last Lecture" originated as a talk given to students at Carnegie Mellon University by Dr. Randy Pausch, a professor of computer science who was dying of pancreatic cancer. This extraordinary lecture, in which the professor opened up about his life, beliefs and struggles to students, resulted in an internationally best-selling book titled "The Last Lecture."

Teo is an emulator of the Thomson TO8 microcomputer for PC, running on MSDOS,
Windows and Linux.
The compatibility is close to 100% for softwares which don't use non
emulated peripherals and don't hold physical protections. In other words,
if a software doesn't work on Teo, so probably :
1. it needs the presence of another peripheral than mouse, light-pen,
joystick, tape recorder and disks (so it won't run as long as this
peripheral is not emulated),
2. its physical protection makes it fail.

Anonymous emails that Broadwell sent to Jill Kelley, a Tampa
socialite who knew Petraeus, prompted an FBI investigation
that exposed Broadwell's affair with Petraeus, a retired US
Army general known for his success in the Iraq war. Petraeus
resigned from the CIA last month.
"After applying relevant case law to the particular facts of
this case, the United States Attorney's Office for the Middle
District of Florida has decided not to pursue a federal case
regarding the alleged acts of 'cyberstalking' involving Paula
Broadwell," the US Attorney's office in Tampa, Florida, said
in a statement.
Broadwell was also under investigation for her handling of
classified materials and it was unclear on Tuesday whether
that investigation was still continuing.
"Our office cannot comment outside of our statement on the
cyberstalking investigation," a spokeswoman for the Tampa
prosecutor said.
A Justice Department spokesman in Washington also declined to
comment on whether that investigation was continuing or on
whether Broadwell could still be charged with crimes other
than cyberstalking.
FBI agents found a substantial amount of classified
information on Broadwell's personal computer when they
searched her North Carolina home with her consent in
November. Both she and Petraeus have told investigators they
did not share security secrets.
Sources briefed on the investigation previously told Reuters
the documents date from before August 2011, when Petraeus
took up his post at the CIA and the two started their affair.
None of the material comes from the CIA, the sources said.
Broadwell was an Army reserve officer involved in military
intelligence and had a security clearance that allowed her to
handle sensitive documents. However, she would still have to
comply with strict rules that lay out how sensitive materials
must be protected.
Broadwell's security clearance has been suspended. It could
be revoked and she could face harsher penalties if it is
found that she mishandled classified data.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.

Has every option you could ever want for controlling the who and when of where a widget displays. Only upset is that setting the display options is done via another page i.e view the widget you want to control visibility of, click the 'static' or 'dynamic' link at the bottom of the widget and then you're taken to another screen where the visibility settings are managed. If that could be done in a popup, this plugin would be even more awesome.
Thank you Mr Developer. You'll find a donation on its way to you. Regards, LAH.

Sorry, I've searched the forum and all over the place for the answers.
Maybe I just don't understand, can you explain in non-dev language?
On my page created for my survey results, I have the following code:
[feedback_trend id="2, 1" label="Answers"]
2 questions:
1) I keep getting blank results, the fields of the survey show up but no results below them
2) Is the reason due the the label="Answers" part of the code? (ie: no "Answers" are designated?) If so, what do I put here? I couldn't figure out what I needed to enter and can I enter more than 1? How exactly does this work.
Thank you!!!!!

Blue Buffalo Wilderness Rocky Mountain Recipe with Red Meat Small Breed Dog Food
Blue Buffalo Wilderness Rocky Mountain Recipe with Red Meat Small Breed Dog Food
- No chicken or poultry by-product meals, no corn, wheat or soy and nothing artificial
- 100% grain-free with no gluten
- A sensible alternative to raw diets
- Contains a delicious combination of red meat, beef, bison, venison, and lamb
For centuries wolves have roamed the American West and survived on a diet provided solely by the wild. The spirit of the wolf lives on in our dogs today, and is the inspiration for our new BLUE Rocky Mountain Recipe. Like all BLUE Wilderness foods, Rocky Mountain Recipe is made with more of the meat dogs love such as beef, bison, venison, and lamb. In addition to containing wholesome and high quality ingredients, Blue Buffalo Wilderness Rocky Mountain Recipe with Red Meat Small Breed Dog Food is formulated with exclusive and unique LifeSource Bits. These dark morsels contain vitamins, mineral sand antioxidants selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists. When added to your dry dog food, LifeSource Bits will support your dog's immune system and protect him from environmental toxins. While other types of dry and natural dog food are heat processed (effectively destroying 30- 75% of the original nutritional value), LifeSource Bits are cold-formed to retain the potency of their vitamins and minerals. This high concentration of essential nutrients - especially water-soluble vitamins like vitamin B complexes - makes LifeSource Bits ideal for outdoor dogs who lead active lifestyles. Blue Buffalo Wilderness Red Meat Small Breed Dog Food does not contain corn, wheat, soy, artificial colors or flavors or preservatives. You will never find chicken or poultry by-products in this dry dog food. Feed your four-legged family members food made with wholesome, high quality ingredients.

Hi Geoffrey -
Sorry to be a squeaky wheel, but I seem to be having the same issue. It was working fine on my site, then I changed twitter accounts (updating all keys and secret numbers), and now I keep getting the same message that the tweets can't be displayed. I thought maybe it was because my account was set to private so I made it public and that did not change anything. Deactivated and activated. Deleted and reinstalled. And now I feel I need to bother you for help. Any ideas as to what I can do? Yours is the best twitter app out there so I want to keep using it. My website is: http://cameluk.camelblog.com/

Coinstar (CSTR) and Verizon's (VZ) Redbox Instant streaming JV will launch somewhere between...
Coinstar (CSTR) and Verizon's (VZ) Redbox Instant streaming JV will launch somewhere between mid-November and mid-December, Verizon exec Eric Bruno tells Bloomberg. Bruno adds the service will offer monthly rentals and purchases in addition to subscriptions, and (like Netflix) will support non-PC devices. Verizon and Coinstar have suggested in the past their service would differentiate itself from Netflix (NFLX), mocked as "rerun TV" by some, through a greater focus on movies.

Comments (3)
Who writes these little blurbs? I have no problem whatsoever with the bulk of the comment and positively appreciate the comment about how they hope to differentiate their service from other streaming products but why refer to Netflix as "rerun TV?"
I wrote this one. Just for the record, I'm a happy Netflix subscriber. For $8/month, I think it's a pretty good deal, especially for a cord-cutter like me.
Appreciate your reply. I did take a look and yes I agree a fair number of people have made the comment about rerun TV although it looked to me that it originated with a comment by a Time-Warner executive. While that sort of a comment still rankles with me as I have loved the way Netflix introduced me to movies (particularly foreign language) that I never would have watched/discovered without its recommendations you made a fair statement and I don't think you have an axe-to-grind.

|The composition of persistent organochlorine compounds (OC) in soils and sediments from two high altitude European mountain lakes, Redon in the Pyrenees and Ladove in the Tatra mountains, has been studied. Sediment cores from two additional lakes in the Tatra mountains, Starolesnianske Pleso and Dlugi Staw, have also been examined. DDTs (1.7–13 ng g−1) were the most abundant OC in soils followed by total polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs; 0.41–1.5 ng g−1) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB; 0.15–0.91 ng g−1). In sediments, the dominant OC were also DDTs (3.3–28 ng g−1) and PCBs (2.3–15 ng g−1). These concentrations are low, involving absence of major pollution sources in these high mountain regions.
The downcore OC profiles in soils and sediments were similar but higher concentrations and steeper vertical gradients were observed in the latter. Radiometric determinations showed absence of significant OC transport from catchment to lake. The sediment–soil difference points therefore to a better retention of the OC load in sediments than soils which may be related to the low temperatures that are currently encountered at the bottom of the lake water column and the depletion of sediment bioturbation in these cold environments.
Significant qualitative changes in the soil PCB distributions are observed downcore. These involve a dominance of the high molecular weight congeners in the top core sections and those of lower weight (i.e. less chlorinated) in the bottom. Anaerobic dechlorination of higher molecular weight congeners occurring in microsites, e.g. as observed in flooded or poorly drained soils, could be responsible for these changes. This process could be concurrent to bioturbation.

Imagination in Place
Wendell Berry
Counterpoint, $24, 208 pp.
In 1964 Wendell Berry turned his back on literary life in New York City, resigning from his teaching position in the English Department at New York University and purchasing a farm near Port Royal, Kentucky. By returning to the area where he had grown up (about forty miles northeast of Louisville), he was choosing to be a "placed writer." "I was...going back...to take up the fate of country people in my time," he writes.
I was going back to help bury a lot of good men and women who had replaced their predecessors well enough, but who themselves would not be succeeded or replaced. I was going back to witness many times the breaking of the old link and the old reverence of the manuring of the fields.
But Berry's literary career did not end with his return to Kentucky, though it did take an unexpected turn. In addition to writing stories and poems, he also began to write essays in defense of the "old link and the old reverence" that was being broken in rural America. From his small farm he launched an immensely ambitious project of cultural criticism. He wrote about race, sex, war, science, religion, and citizenship, but he focused especially on issues of land use, the environment, and farming. Berry also became a lecturer and activist, joining others to champion small-scale family farming, ecologically sound agriculture, and an end to the despoliation of the natural environment.
Today Berry is famous, an...

Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
I wonder if you can recommend any reliable and reasonably UPS for this machine? If tehre are some users with Z420 here who have their own UPS working - it woudl be so lonvely to hear what you think!
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
A Z420 has a 600W power supply by faceplate, but depending on exact config (processor, graphics cards, hard drives, etc) may only use as little as 130W even when operating at "peak" performance. Also, what other devices (such as monitors) are present?
Also, what are your goals for the UPS? i.e....
How much uptime do you need after the power outage?
Is your power grid often subject to brownouts or rolling blackouts where power conditioning features would be required in addition to blackout failover?
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
Thank you for your reply.....well my PC configuration is as follows:
HP Z420 Workstation (WM435EA)
- Intel® Xeon® E5-1650 (3.20 GHz, 12 MB cache, 6 cores)
Chipset Intel® C602 Form factor Convertible Minitower Memory, standard: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 ECC Unbuffered RAM Memory slots 8 DIMM As for video I have PNY NVS 300 - 2D CARD with no fan....
Display is LG 21 inch....
I woudl need to filter out spikes in power and be able to have the time to save unfinisghed work - like 3 minutes.
I hope that clarifyes it more)
Will wiat to hear what you think, Dima
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
anyone with a similar machine can please comment?????? I wonder what kind of the UPS you woudl recommend!??
Tons of thanks in advance!
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
We use Back-UPS ES 750G on our Z820, works like a charm and give about 12 minutes of battery life.
Might be overkill for Z420, but it's not that expensive...
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
thanks for the suggestion!!!)) I wonder how large the watt output should be for a ups to support my z420? I am a little bit less physics-savvy))
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
anyone else usinf a UPS with their z worstation can recommend one?
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
According to HP Quickspecs, a reference system with the same processor and RAM as you have will use, at most, 300W of sustained power when the system is at its most stressed.
Based on this, I'd recommend a 1000va UPS battery. That'll give you about 15 minutes of runtime, enough to save anything open and do a graceful shutdown. You could use a 750va battery, but you'd get, at most, 7-8 minutes of runtime. Keep in mind, too, that this runtime is when the battery is brand new, so it halves by about the 2.5 year mark. That's why I recommend getting 1000va, so that in 2.5 years you'll be at 7 minutes as opposed to possibly under 3 minutes with a 750va.
To filter out occassional spikes in power, you'll want to ideally have a UPS that's at least line-interactive, if not online conversion of power. These features will ensure that the power fed to your system is filtered and kept at a constant sine wave.
Products I'd recommend would be in APC's "SmartUPS" product line, Cyberpower's "AVR" or "PFC" product lines, Tripplite's "Smart" product lines, or Eaton's "5S" and "5110" product lines.
I can't recommend an exact product because I'm not sure what country you're in (the part # of the workstation tells me you're not in the US, you're somewhere in the EMEA region), but if you call up any competent IT sales retailer in your region and tell them you want a 1000va line-interactive (also known as "automatic voltage regulation") UPS, you'll get what you need.
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
APC Back-UPS Pro 900VA (BR900GI)
Do you think it can c=comnfortably hold the charge for 10 minute on high load on this pc? (E5-1650 CPU)
Re: Please Recommend a UPS for Z420
You'll probably get about 10-12 minutes when the unit is brand new on a 900va battery.
Keep in mind that at 2.5 years, your life will be about half that (5-6 minutes). If you want to maintain 8-10 minutes, you probably should replace the battery component of the UPS every 2 years.

"Kazakhstan" Top 5 Page for this destination Kazakhstan by traveldave
Kazakhstan Travel Guide: 707 reviews and 1,643 photos
Kazakhstan, a huge country spanning from the Caspian Sea in the west to the Chinese border in the east, is the eighth-largest country in the world. Formerly part of the Soviet Union, it gained its independence in 1991 after the break-up of the Soviet Union. Many ethnic Russians remained, and currently make up about 34 percent of the population. The Kazakhs are the largest ethnic group in the country, making up 46 percent of the population. The rest of the people are Ukrainians, Turkmens, Uzbeks, and others. The official language is Kazakh, although most people speak Russian, especially in the cities.
I spent nine days in Kazakhstan in May 2005 when I traveled there on a birdwatching trip. I spent a very short period in Almaty, the country's largest city and former capital, and spent most of my time in wilderness areas in Kazakhstan's deserts, steppes, and mountains in search of as many bird species as possible. Kazakhstan is a beautiful country, offering spectacular vistas of deserts, steppes, and towering snow-capped mountains.
Since Kazakhstan is a country that few people visit (although eco-tourism is becoming increasingly popular), and since I spent most of my time in the countryside, I have included most of my tips under the "Off The Beaten Path" category.

David, it's great that you went to Kazakhstan, saw some really out-of-the-way places and even found the birds you were looking for.
That photo of the poppies is so fantastic. Such informative tips; I especially enjoyed the information about the influence [or lack of ] of the Muslim religion. A place I'll probably never see; it's grand to read your insights. Just wonderful stuff, Dave.
Wow... what fantastic lanscapes of Kazakhstan. You have been to some less travelled places. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, SL :)
David KAZEKSTAN is a place I have only read about = sounds interesting!!
The Bartogi Lake Camp is a novel idea to accommodate eco-tourists. Charyn Red Canyon looks awesome. Such versatility in Kazakhstan - desert - breathtaking mountain peaks - steppes - forests. Wonderful page Dave.
Excellent page, David! I'm envious you were in Tien Shan Mountains... That's something outstanding! I could visit them in Soviet times (a friend of mine went there every year), but... Now the Alps are closer. Thanks for sharing!
Nice page - you paint a good picture of Khazakstan here with scenes of out of the way places. I only got to Almaty and Tamgaly, really enjoyed my stay though. leyle
Dave, what a fantastic page on some of the things little known Kazakhstan has to offer! Your photos of the landscape are excellent. Interesting re the 8 C temperature of Big Almaty Lake - same as our Bay of Fundy thanks to Arctic currents flowing south!
David, fantastic page with interesting tips and brilliant photos. Kazakhstan is definitely on my must-visit list. Keep up the good work .... :-)
Very interesting tips. Big Almaty Lake looks fantastic, the steppe with blooming poppies as well. Interesting info on Cold War relics.

AMX/3 pushmobile. AMC photo. Between 1965 and 1981—a relatively short 16 years—American Motors had no shortage of mockups, prototypes and production cars that carried the name AMX. One would think, given that American Motors designers kept appending suffixes to the various iterations, that they ... Read more
Photos courtesy Walter Kirtland. Giotto Bizzarrini turned to the AMC executives watching the high-speed tests for the AMX/3 at Monza in 1970. The Americans had hoped their mid-engine proto-supercar car would be capable of 160 MPH, and the chin spoiler Bizzarrini just added allowed it to easily surp ... Read more
During the development of the AMX/3, AMC's all-too-brief entry in the mid-engine supercar field in the late 1960s, a number of styling studies and prototypes were wheeled around, including a Giugiaro-desiged foam buck and studies that wore the names AMX/2, AMX/K and AMX/III.
