James Turrell: A Retrospective Members-Only Guide
James Turrell: A Retrospective Members-Only Guide
James Turrell: A Retrospective
May 26, 2013–April 6, 2014
James Turrell: A Retrospective explores the nearly fifty-year career of the artist. In addition to early light projections, holograms, and an entire section devoted to Turrell's masterwork-in-progress, the Roden Crater project, the exhibition features numerous immersive light installations that address our perception and how we see.
Due to the nature of the artwork, this exhibition has extremely limited capacity. Many pieces require solitude and time for your eyes to fully perceive the work. Tickets for this exhibition require timed entry and small groups in order for visitors to best experience the work.
As a member, you see this exhibition for free—We strongly recommend that you make your reservations early.
Additional Benefits for Higher Levels
- Friend level members and above can return to this exhibition for free, as often as they wish.
- Supporter level members will also receive the exhibition catalogue.

In this Article
What are risk factors for leishmaniasis?The major risk factor for leishmaniasis is being exposed to infected sand flies. The sand flies are most active after dusk and are more common in rural areas. Casual travelers do not usually visit these areas at night, so infection is more common in adventure travelers, Peace Corps workers, missionaries, soldiers, and those with occupational activities that require them to live in rural areas. In healthy people, the degree of immune response to leishmaniasis appears to be genetically determined. In visceral leishmaniasis, a weak immune response is associated with more severe disease. Factors that weaken the immune system include malnutrition and infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, in mucocutaneous leishmaniasis, the symptoms appear to be caused in part by an overactive immune response. Interestingly, the Leishmania parasite itself can be infected with a virus that may cause the parasite to be more dangerous by overstimulating the inflammatory response from the human immune system. Leishmania may live quietly for years in the body and then begin to multiply (reactivate) if the person's immune system becomes suppressed. Thus, people who were born in a country with leishmaniasis and those who have had travel-related exposure are at risk if they become immunosuppressed by conditions such as chemotherapy, use of steroids, or infection with HIV. Patients who have previously had cutaneous leishmaniasis acquired in certain parts of the New World are at risk for mucocutaneous leishmaniasis. Patient CommentsViewers share their comments

Should new age law protect children?
Seminar on recommendations for age legislation to protect young people
The Equality Commission and the Northern Ireland Commissioner for Children and Young People (NICCY) held a half day event to explore our joint recommendations on legislation to protect children and young people from discrimination when accessing goods, facilities and services.
Robin Allen QC and Dee Masters BL provided a legal perspective of the proposals. The practical impacts of the recommendations, including the effect of non implementation, will be considered.
Photos taken at the seminar
Our proposals
The Equality Commission and NICCY believe that people of all ages, including children and young people, should be protected against unlawful age discrimination and harassment when accessing goods, facilities and services, for example, health care or education.
We recognise that there are situations in which it is appropriate to treat adults and children differently and the law should allow for that where there are good justifiable reasons for doing so.
But that is not a reason for excluding children and young people completely from the protection of anti-discrimination law.
Our document ´Strengthening Protection for all Ages - Proposals for Reform: Protecting children and young people against unlawful age discrimination in the provision of goods and services´ (June 2013) discusses the issues.

Experience of Age Discrimination
We are keen to hear from you if you are an older person and believe that you have been treated unfairly because of your age when accessing goods and services.
The Northern Ireland Executive is considering introducing new legislation that will give greater protection for older people against discrimination when accessing goods and services.
Your experiences will help illustrate the impact that this proposed new legislation will have on the lives of older people in Northern Ireland.

Strengthening Protection for all Ages in Health and Social Care
The Commission has been providing a platform for the age sector and other key stakeholders to discussthe forthcoming age discrimination legislation. A series of events has explored the Commission´s recommendations for age health and social care provisions and potential developments at a European and GB level. The age, public, legal, health, trade union and voluntary and community sectors have all been represented at our events.
Some of the presentations and other useful resources from the events are still available:
Roisin Mallon, Senior Policy Officer, Equality Commission for NI (presentation)
Robin Allen QC, Head of Cloisters Barristers´ Chambers (presentation, full notes)
Helen Bowers, Head of Policy and Research, National Development Team for Inclusion (presentation, notes, toolkit).
To demonstrate the impact the changes proposed could have, Ann Gamble shared her experience on the level of care provided to the elderly in nursing homes (presentation).
A group of young people made a video highlighting the barriers they, and a parent, have faced when accessing health and social care.

Together, two separate corporate entities called Public Citizen, Inc. and Public Citizen Foundation, Inc., form Public Citizen. Both entities are part of the same overall organization, and this Web site refers to the two organizations collectively as Public Citizen.
Although the work of the two components overlaps, some activities are done by one component and not the other. The primary distinction is with respect to lobbying activity. Public Citizen, Inc., an IRS § 501(c)(4) entity, lobbies Congress to advance Public Citizen's mission of protecting public health and safety, advancing government transparency, and urging corporate accountability. Public Citizen Foundation, however, is an IRS § 501(c)(3) organization. Accordingly, its ability to engage in lobbying is limited by federal law, but it may receive donations that are tax-deductible by the contributor. Public Citizen Inc. does most of the lobbying activity discussed on the Public Citizen Web site. Public Citizen Foundation performs most of the litigation and education activities discussed on the Web site.
You may make a contribution to Public Citizen, Inc., Public Citizen Foundation, or both. Contributions to both organizations are used to support our public interest work. However, each Public Citizen component will use only the funds contributed directly to it to carry out the activities it conducts as part of Public Citizen's mission. Only gifts to the Foundation are tax-deductible. Individuals who want to join Public Citizen should make a contribution to Public Citizen, Inc., which will not be tax deductible.

There are plenty of tips/tricks in the forums -- the 'search' feature is your friend.

Sports Concussion Clinic
Every year, millions of children and adolescents experience sports-related concussions. A concussion is a type of brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head. The effects can be serious and should be addressed promptly and correctly. Allowing adequate healing time following a concussion is crucial to recovery.
The Sports Concussion Clinic at Spaulding Cape Cod offers an integrated program combining a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation by a physician, the use of the ImPACT neurocognitive test, and individualized therapy and education plans to promote full recovery and ensure the athlete's safe, appropriate return to sports or classroom activities.
Approach To Care
Spaulding's clinical team works closely with the athlete's parents, coaches, athletic trainer, teachers, school nurse, guidance counselor and primary care physician to educate and facilitate his or her safe, gradual return to activity -- academics, sports, and work.
Our treatment plan may include:
Comprehensive Assessment of the Injured Athlete
--Complete history of the event, including immediate symptoms, symptom progression, concussion history and academic performance before and after the event.
Full Medical Exam
--Musculoskeletal and Neurological Assessment
--Vestibular Assessment: balance, vision
-- Cognitive Assessment: memory, attention, reaction time, processing
ImPACT Neurocognitive Testing
--Computerized evaluation system that provides an objective way to assess readiness to return to play and academics after concussion; interpreted by a specially trained physiatrist
-- Providing baseline (pre-season) and post-injury testing
--As needed for headache, sleep or attention symptoms
--Therapists with expertise in treating concussions will incorporate appropriate exercise to improve activity tolerance without provoking concussive symptoms.
--Vestibular therapy to help with dizziness and visual problems as needed
Our team consists of specially trained physical therapists (occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists as needed) who work closely with the physiatrist to develop and implement each patient's treatment plan. In addition, support staff are trained to administer ImPACT testing.
Program Director
Physiatrist Andrew Judelson, MD, is board certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Dr. Judelson has an extensive background in exercise physiology and special interest in sports medicine. Since 2010, he has been actively involved in developing concussion management and community education on Cape Cod. He consults with area school systems on diagnosis and treatment of concussion in student athletes.

Starling Marte had three hits, including a bases-loaded triple in the 15th inning, and plated a career-high six runs on Friday as the Altoona Curve outlasted the Richmond Flying Squirrels, 11-5.
Marte didn't drive in his first run of the night until the seventh, when he singled home Eric Fryer. Batting in the ninth with the Curve trailing by two runs, he tied the game with another base hit.
"The pitcher was just throwing fastballs on the first pitch to the batters ahead of me and I noticed that, so when it was my turn I was looking for that. And when he threw it to me, I swung at it," Marte said through teammate and translator Jose Hernandez.
The 22-year-old outfielder capped Altoona's six-run 15th with a bases-clearing triple and scored on a throwing error by right fielder Mike McBryde.
Marte had only three RBIs in his first 12 games but was batting .364 with five stolen bases and five runs scored. He extended his hitting streak to 11 games and has reached safely in all 13 contests this season.
"I just go up there and look for a fastball. And when I'm up there, I let it loose and I swing at it," said Marte, whose previous career high was four RBIs.
Marte has made steady progress since signing with the Pirates as a non-drafted free agent in January 2007, raising his batting average and stolen base total every year.
"Giving it all I got every game and to be focused and get to the big leagues, that's my goal," he said. "I don't know when, but whenever they call me, I'll be ready."
Quincy Latimore reached base four times and drove in two runs, while Fryer went 3-for-6 with three runs scored for the Curve.

Characters Funny Main VideoGame WMG YMMV main index Narrative
Neptunia series, JRPGs featuring moe anthropomorphisms of the 7th generation consoles in a humorous take on the Console Wars.The game starts off with a battle between the three goddesses (XBox360, PlayStation3, and Wii) versus the fourth goddess — Sega Neptune, the personification of the Sega Neptune that never came to be. Following her loss, Neptune loses her memory and gets turned into a preteen girl. An unknown force then sends her out on a mission to stop the piracy monsters running rampant in the gaming world. To do that, she needs to find a book that holds the secrets of the world... and hopefully win the three other goddesses to her side for good.Along the way, she gets to meet up with other various people who are the moe personification of Gust, Nippon Ichi, Idea Factory, and Compile Heart. 5pb and Red are also available as DLC characters.Sadly, the game was plagued by issues caused by the complete lack of a budget. Luckily, however, it sold well anyway, and kicked off a series of games that still runs to this very day.There is also a manga that details the events following the normal ending.Apparently, the faults of the game were seen by the developers, as, three years later, a remake by the name of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 was announced for the PS Vita.Visit the Japanese and English websites.

Why It Is Better To Buy RIM Than Apple Shares Right Now
5 Reasons Why It Is Better To Buy RIM Than Apple Shares | The Gadget Masters
Since RIM announced on October 31st that BlackBerry 10 has entered carrier trials at 50 carriers, its shares rallied 20.82% in 4 trading days. In that time, its shares broke above the US$8 and US$9 levels. Since the shares hit its 52-week low of US$6.22 on Sept 24th, they have rallied a whooping 45.82% as of the intra-day high on Nov. 12.
Meanwhile, Apple shares have gone in the opposite direction. Since hitting its 52-week high of US$705.07 on Sept. 21st, they have fallen 23.01% to $542.83 (as of market close on Nov. 12). The shares are in the midst of an ugly downtrend.
Below are 5 reasons why shares are RIMM have far more upside than AAPL right now.
1) BB 10 Is Appealing and Unique; iOS 6 Is Boring and Old
Bloggers, developers and even financial analysts have nothing but praise for BB 10 after going hands-on with the new OS. First of all, it is different than what is offered by Apple and Android. It takes the user experience that iOS introduced in 2007, and takes it to the next level with Flow and Peek. The user experience is no longer the opening-and-closing of apps that smartphone users experience today.
The BlackBerry Hub enforces RIMs traditional strength in messaging, by allowing users to receive and send all sorts of messages from just one app (email, BBM, text, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter messages).
The dynamic lock-screen is beautiful and convenient. Active Frames (like Live Tiles on WP 8) are visually-stunning and provide useful information. The virtual keyboards predictive-text capabilities have saved me time by allowing me to swipe up to use a suggested word instead of typing out each letter. The time-shifting camera has the sex appeal that can attract the average consumer. The browser has the most powerful HTML5 capabilities among all mobile browsers on the market, with a HTML5 Test score of 484. For enterprise users, BlackBerry Balance allows for a convenient and intuitive separation of personal and corporate information.
RIM is also keeping many features hidden for now, including BB 10′s native picture filters and a video-editing app. Any positive surprises come launch time will be positive for its shares.
On the other hand, iOS 6 appears stale in comparison. Years of incremental changes since 2007 has left it with rows of boring icons. As a 5-year-old OS, it looks dated next to BB 10......

Thanks for the link.
It is rather easy to say why it's better to buy RIMM than AAPL in hindsight after the stocks have made major moves... Where were these articles a month ago?Blatant placeholder signature. - 11-13-2012, 11:00 PM #3
Or how about because RIM stock is cheap and Apple stock isn't? Because Apple underwhelmed people with 2 new ipads and RIM will release 2 new phones?

He said "apple underwhelmed people" I responded how so if the sales are strong at this point (meaning a lot of people had to be impressed) I said nothing about the stock price or P/E ratio. So umm yeah, your statement had nothing to do with my comment.

The nurse went on to say the duchess had had an uneventful night, as another radio employee pretended to be a dog yapping in the background. The alleged queen and prince then talked about traveling to the London hospital to check in on the patient, who is married to the queen's grandson, Prince William.
The hospital said it supported Saldanha in the aftermath of the call and that its phone protocols were under review.
The Australian station 2DayFM placed the recording of the conversation on its website but later said it was sorry. Australian radio personalities Mel Greig and Michael Christian apologized for the hoax.
"We were very surprised that our call was put through. We thought we'd be hung up on as soon as they heard our terrible accents," they said in a joint statement with the station at the time. "We're very sorry if we've caused any issues and we're glad to hear that Kate is doing well."
However, the disc jockeys also described the call as the "easiest prank call ever made," and promoted it through the station's website and social media accounts.
The Sydney-based 2Day FM continued promote its prank call on air early Saturday morning. It described the hoax as "the prank call the world is talking about" before playing clips of news programs reporting on the original call.
Christian's Twitter account has since been taken down.
Officials from St. James's Palace have said the duchess is not yet 12 weeks pregnant. The child would be the first for her and Prince William and become third in line to the British throne, after Charles and William.

No offense to anyone, but if you could have him, who in their right mind wouldn't want Prince Fielder in their lineup? LOL... heck yes, get him!! It won't happen, but I can dream! :)
Forum Post: Erik Bedard to Sox?
Michael Pineda is a decent #5 starter? Wow... the kid is dynamite and arguably equally as good as Buchholz right now. I would LOVE to get Pineda.
Forum Post: I Knew Cleveland Was Overrated
Overrated how? The are definitely not overrated because the Sox took 2 of 3.

Bard has been a joke and cost us plenty of games already. Actually, the entire bullpen has pretty much stunk again this year (Jenks, Wheeler, Bard).

So anyway... to answer the question. I'd pull the trigger right now!
Forum Post: Kevin Millwood to Sox?
The depth is okay to have, but it is a bad move. 4-16 last year with a plus 5 ERA... and only hitting the mid 80's with his fastball now. Sounds like we'll be screaming to get Lackey or Dice-K back! more »

Ordinary High-School Student, as they all are. Then, completely by accident, he gets accepted to a school where youkai attend and are taught how to be human. Before he gets to school, he has a run-in with Moka Akashiya, who sucks his blood. Other than being a little light-headed, Tsukune now finds out he has a girlfriend. Thing is, every guy on campus is also after her. Fortunately, he's the only one who can remove Moka's rosary around her neck, turning her into a powerful, super-vampire, albeit changing Moka into an utter ice queen. As a member of the school's newspaper club, he's also surrounded by a harem of cute monster girls; life just got a lot more interesting.While the manga starts off as a harmless Monster of the Week, it slowly becomes Darker and Edgier. One of the two major recurring issues is that humans are forbidden in the monster realm. This is originally more of a precaution, though the Public Safety Commission has reinterpreted the mandate to be an instant death sentence for any "filthy human spies" they find. The second is something very serious that happens to Tsukune, which to go more into detail about it would spoil a major plot point. The anime, on the other hand, is a Lighter and Softer romantic comedy with Panty Shots Up to Eleven. Sure, it borrows some of the plot from the manga, but that pretty much stays on the background (entire arcs are reduced to single episodes, just to give an idea).The first season of manga ran for 10 volumes in Japan, with the second underway. The series is also being published in America. An anime adaptation aired in early 2008, and a second season titled Rosario + Vampire Capu2 aired later that year. Both seasons have been licensed by Funimation.Season 2 ended in 2014 with 72 chapters, although there's an epilogue due to come out in April.Feel free to check out and contribute to the character page as well.

My new 20″ iMac G5 arrived via FedEx this morning, and as I unpacked it and settled on a name for the new device (Prospero, to fit my Shakespearean conventions), I didn't realize how large a surprise I was in for.
Once through the initial setup, I saw something I'd never seen before in Software Update. What's that little home symbol? I'm familiar with the symbol that indicates a reboot is necessary, but what's the little home icon for?
Have you seen this odd new icon?

"Olaus and Mardy Murie by their home in front of Grand Tetons, 1953″
The Murie family knows a thing or two about conservation, they are icons of the wilderness movement, specifically Olaus and Adolph Murie and their wives Margaret and Louise. These were remarkable people who cared deeply about wild places and stamped their indelible mark on conservation history. Their name has never been associated with anti-wolf rhetoric, quite the contrary.
"Based in Grand Teton National Park, the Muries were active throughout the twentieth century. The Murie Family was strongly committed to maintaining the biodiversity of Jackson Hole and during the lifetimes of Mardy and Weezy helped establish the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance.
Olaus Murie was a talented artist and a pioneering field biologist for the U.S. Bureau of Biological Survey. He left federal service in 1945 to become the president of The Wilderness Society, which helped establish the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and was influential in the passage of Wilderness Act of 1964.
Adolph Murie, an ecologist, was a pioneering advocate of bio-diversity and was a major promoter of the Denali National Park.
Margaret Murie (married Olaus, 1924) helped bring about the passage of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act, the greatest land preservation act in U.S. history, and was the recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1998.
Louise Murie (now MacLeod), a botanist, accompanied her husband Adolph (married 1932) on twenty-five expeditions to Mount McKinley (now Denali) National park. She served on the board of directors of the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance and the Murie Center."….Wikipedia
Donald Murie , son of Olaus Murie, wrote an open letter to the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation concerning their virulent anti-wolf rhetoric and use of the Murie name.

Make Enquiry

If you have any questions on these conditions or any other aspect of Travel Finder, please contact us.
An inviting ski in/ski out property considered a resort within itself. It lies just a five minute stroll from the resort centre and provides a broad range of excellent facilities.
You can also be entertained at the slope side bar or the two lounges where dancing continues until the early hours. If you prefer to hit the town then there is a free hotel shuttle bus as an alternative to the short walk.
Room Facilities :
Facilities :
Breckenridge is small by US standards, though does still have a good range of pistes. A haven for beginners with its excellent ski school, Breckenridge also provides some fun but short runs for advanced skiers, with top bowls offering good off-piste opportunities (Lake Chutes). Intermediates also have some enjoyable (but limited) cruising. Better skiers will want to use the shared lift pass, with access to Keystone, Arapahoe Basin and Vail for more variety. Snow reliability is exceptional, as is the lift system, making the idea of queueing an (almost) distant memory. freestylers have also got a nice park to play on
Breckenridge has a 19th century feel to it, as it was a gold-mining town, but with all the bright colours does seem a touch "Disneyland". The resort has every type and price range of accommodation, from self-catering to top hotels, but some are quite far from the lifts requiring the use of a free shuttle bus. With a wide selection of restaurants and bars, après ski is lively without being too rawcus. Breckenridge also provides lots of non-skiing activities such as sleigh rides and ice skating as well as a cinema, swimming pool, art gallery and good shopping.
Overall, Breckenridge is a solid ski base from which to explore the Summit County resorts. Lastly, though, please be aware of altitude sickness that, when combined with jetlag, can make for a few uncomfortable days.
A mixture of sunny and cloudy weather is expected throughout this week and over next weekend, with a chance of fresh snow at almost all of our featured North America resorts. The only two resorts without fresh snow forecast are Mammoth and Heavenly in California. The Skeena heli-ski area in Canada is expecting the most snow, with almost 80cm of fresh snow forecast at mid-mountain level by Tuesday 18th March. Here fresh snow is forecast every day until then. In America it is the Vermont resorts of Mount Snow, Killington and Stowe that should receive the heaviest snowfall, with around 30cm scheduled to land at mid-mountain level over the same period. In New Hampshire, Attitash Bear Peak should receive a similar amount.

Who doesn't love beeswax candles?
This 6-minute video shows you exactly how to make your own beeswax candle with essential oils.
Warning: There is no going back! Once you make your own beeswax candle, with your own essential oils, nothing else compares. Be prepared to be seriously spoiled!
Making your own beeswax candles is a great alternative to buying commercial candles, which often have synthetic fragrances, metal wicks and petroleum-based waxes. This way, only natural healthy substances are released into your space. Another plus is that when we work with natural beeswax, we support beekeepers!
- Beeswax (6-8 oz)
- Essential Oil (I used 2 ml patchouli and 2 ml vetiver)
- Supplies:
- 4 oz glass jar
- 1 wick
- A set of chop sticks
- Pyrex measuring cup
- Small soup pot
- 10 ml graduated cylinder (optional)
- Measure 6 oz. of beeswax (1 and 1/2 jar full). If you want the candle to fill right to the top use 8 oz. (2 jars full).
- Wipe your Pyrex cup with jojoba.
- Melt the beeswax in the Pyrex (see video for details).
- Place the wick in the jar using the chop sticks shown in the video.
- Measure your essential oil.
- Once the beeswax is melted, add the essential oil to the beeswax and stir.
- Pour slowly into the glass jar so to not disturb the wick.
- Allow it to solidify for several hours before burning.

I think if a virus ever comes about to turn people to zombies its going to be a form of rabies. Its aggressive, and scientifically proven to mutate. Ive said this before I also don't think the zombies it creates are going to be dead, or able to live without function internal organs like the heart. I think their going to be more like the zombies from 28 days later, living just rabbid. I don't think, or hope if something like that occured that they'll be able to run. I think the virus will much like it does in animals alter their coordination and balance. Making them stumbly, clumsy, and slow. I do believe they will move much like the zombies in the walking dead, because of the lack of coordination. Lets hope that that is the issue, because otherwise that possible future could be a lot scarier.
Exactly, everyone is love with the idea of zombies being actually "dead" truth of the matter is there is no way they will be actually dead. Its just not possible from a medical stand point.

Products with bad support are bad productsPros: I'm not an SSD expert but while this drive worked it seemed to work well. Cons: Drive turned flaky and entered complete failure mode in less that 1 year of use. Fortunately I only ran the OS on it. Other Thoughts: The Ugly: Drive failures aren't something to lose stars for typically, but Patriot loses them on the basis of dirt poor customer support. They've had my drive for very nearly a month (Shipper confirmed delivery on 5/6; it's now 6/9) and despite multiple contact attempts I haven't heard anything about the RMA. The silence from Patriot's RMA department is deafening and tells me a lot about how they value their customers. Did you find this review helpful? |
Super Fast, Great PricePros: Great Boot speed. The fastest way to quickly upgrade your system. Sata III, Trim support. Cons: Wish it come with a mounting plate, or kit. Adapter. Did you find this review helpful? |
This is Junk.Pros: No "pros" - even the rebate is a rip, as they will do anything to deny it. Cons: All cons. Be prepared to have gigs of your precious data sucked-up and dumped into the Nether World of a faulty product. Other Thoughts: I should have known not to trust this 'company', once they denied the $20 rebate on the basis of 3 hours - their Pacific vs my Eatern Time Zone purchase date. Really? Some still wants to kill all future business in order to "save" $20 over the clock? Okay. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
JunkPros: No "pros", beyond a false sense of security when the first 2 weeks seem fast. Cons: Should be a ZERO STAR rating. Buggy, ever-increasing sloth, data loss, and a final warningless death with all data dumped. Other Thoughts: Starting with the denial and cheating of a $20 rebate over a matter of hours (Eastern vs Pacific Time. Really, Patriot? You would kill all fitire business because of this? Yes, you would.) 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
FastPros: Fast as advertised. Although I do not really see the speed increase as I have upgraded from SATA 2 60GB to SATA 3 120GB and due to the issue mentioned below. Got it on sale for $99 after rebate. Cons: - not sure if this is motherboard issue or not - when I use it with SATA 3 connector, the BIOS recognizes as IDE - even when I have disabled IDE card and SATA 3 port is configured to be AHCI. When I use it with SATA 2 port, it is recognized and works with AHCI mode. (I did use intel rapid storage driver prior to windows install) Did you find this review helpful? |
Don't buy if you have AMD systemPros: No problem with installation and drive has been very stable. Cons: Running Win7 64-bit on AMD system and gretting R/W speeds of only 210/105. Tried to run firmware update and only get fail error message. Other Thoughts: Patriot support so far hasn't even responded to online support request or phone call. Found thread on another forum that found out Patriot admits to a problem the drive has with AMD boards and to get firmware update (which may or may not fix speed problems) you have to RMA and have them do it. Wish I'd seen that forum before buying. Did you find this review helpful? |
Not backwards compatiblePros: Fast? I guess? Cons: Fails to get recognized on any SATA-II port unlike my backwards compatible SATA-III HD. Other Thoughts: Unable to format or clone since it's not recognized by the systems Disk Management service. I can still use it on the other computer but not on the HTPC. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Patriot 120GB MLC SSDPros: Very fast when first loaded. Cons: It died after 6 months and I still have not been able to obtain an RMA from Patriot, even though I have made several attempts. If they do not stand behind their warranty, then I recommend you buy from a different manufacturer that does. Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
pretty goodPros: this thing is freakin' fast! boots from a cold startup to windows 7 64x in 25 seconds (depending on how fast i can type in my password). oh yeah, i got it on sale with a $40 rebate too. it's been running flawlessly for about 4 months now. Cons: haven't found any yet. Other Thoughts: i've read a lot of reviews of ssds failing prematurely and it makes me wonder if those drives were subjected to defragmenting? or if bios settings were set to recognize them? Did you find this review helpful? |
Died after 2 monthsPros: Installation was a snap. Motherboard found drive on boot and so did the windows setup. Ran awesome for about 2 months. Cons: No warning signs at all. Shut down pc one night all was normal. Turned pc on in morning and windows would just freeze on the windows start up screen. Could not repair or format drive after that. Out for RMA for now. Other Thoughts: This is my first ssd. I have been waiting to buy one because of all the reliability issues. Apparently i should have waited longer. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |

Utility companies won't compensate food loss
Friday - 7/6/2012, 3:45pm  ET
WASHINGTON - Thousands of people lost power after last weekend's storm and had to either eat their food before it spoiled, or toss it out altogether. So who pays for that waste?
The short answer is you do, though this could vary depending on the cause.
"If the power loss was due to a loss on or near your property, you may be covered," says Michael Barry, vice president of media relations at the Insurance Information Institute.
But you'll have to prove it, and you need to check your deductible.
"I think a lot of insurance companies would say if you had a $500 or $1,000 loss and a $500 or $1,000 deductible, you the policy holder would be on the hook for that initial dollar amount," he says.
A check with the local utilities indicates you'll probably be eating the cost of all that food you had to toss out. Pepco's website states that "Pepco will not be liable for damages caused by certain occurrences that are beyond the control of the company." This includes weather like ice, wind, lightning and hurricanes.
Daisy Pridgen at Dominion Virginia Power says in some "very rare" instances, there may be a pay out to a customer, but, like Pepco, it will not reimburse for food loss in most cases. Still, you can contact their customer care and they will review claims on a case-by-case basis. The story is the same at BGE.

text: R.B. FALLSTROM AP Sports Writer ST. LOUIS (AP) - Zack Greinke worked six strong innings and Jonathan Lucroy's two-run double capped a three-run sixth as the Milwaukee Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep. Greinke (3-1) allowed a run on seven hits to help stop the Brewers' six-game road losing streak. He's 2-1 with a 2.11 ERA in four career games in St. Louis. He pitched a lot better than in his only other road start this year, when he surrendered eight runs in 3 2-3 innings at Chicago on April 12. Jaime Garcia (2-1) fell to 17-10 at home with a 2.38 ERA and all three of his shutouts, and 12-7 with 4.15 ERA on the road. (Copyright 2012 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Back from All-Star Break, Pacers Pound Wizards
No Pacers were invited to All-Star Weekend in LA, but that's a good thing for this team right now. Sure, Collison, George and/or Hansbrough probably could have gotten an invite for the Rookie Challenge, but this break gave the team a much needed rest, especially after it suffered its first two-game losing streak under Frank Vogel.
Well, they are back and they won their first game with ease against the struggling Washington Wizards, 113-96. After some sloppiness initially, the Pacers put their feet on the gas and streaked ahead with a bunch of fast break points.
Granger had 21 and 10, Hibbert had 16, 6 and 4 blocks, Hansbrough had 17 and 5, George had 11 and 9, and Collison had 11, 5 and 6 assists as every player on the roster scored.
With the entire NBA focused on the recent Carmelo to New York trade and now the Deron Williams to New Jersey trade, the Pacers are kind of sneaking under the radar a little bit (not that they were the focus of much attention before that). It's unlikely that the Pacers will made any significant moves before the trade deadline with monetary restrictions and Indiana being not exactly a popular destination for free agents, the team will just have to make do with that they have right now.
Tonight, they get a chance at redemption against the Detroit Pistons, the team they lost to just before the All-Star Break. I expect the Pacers to come out, play hard, and win easily. It'll be a test they'll need to pass if they want to seriously move up in the playoff ladder.
Looking ahead, the 25-30 Pacers have a great opportunity to step into the 7th spot (currently occupied by Philly) and potentially the 6th (New York) if Melo screws NY up (highly unlikely). Conversely, if they're not carefuly, they can also easily fall right out of the race again.
We'll just have to wait and see.
PS: Don't even get me started on Reggie not making the finalist list for the Hall of Fame.

Yu Darvish is on his way to the States to pitch for the Rangers. Erik wrote a Yu Darvish 2012 fantasy post already. To pull some quotes from that article, "Darvish was once involved in a "major scandal" in Japan, where he was caught smoking," "He also goes by the Persian name Farid, meaning 'glorious,'" and "He mixes in a cutter." He sounds like he's in the Yakuza. I don't want to draft Yu; I wanna hang out with him in illegal gambling halls and pick up coquettish girls. I'm gonna be honest with you (for the first time ever!) and tell you I don't know what to make of Darvish's Japanese numbers. Dice-K came to the States with some serious bells and whistles. In his first year, he had a 4.40 ERA. The Ks did, for lack of a better word, translate to the States early on for Dice-K and I think they will too for Yu (hey, sounds like there's a haiku in there). His stuff looks filthy and batters will not be familiar with him at all. Last year, he had 276/36 K/BB in over 232 innings.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Mike Cameron
Two weeks ago, Albert Pujols fractured his wrist. He said he was going to be out for 6 weeks but he wasn't sure until he went back to his home planet Krypton, where he's known as Al-El. On Krypton, Al-El had a heart-to-heart with a hologram image of Stan Musial. What Stan told Al-El was simple. "Hitting isn't about arms, wrists or legs. It's about flying backwards around the globe to before your wrist was hurt by Wilson Betemit and pulling your arm back. Then take two weeks to pretend like you're injured so no one thinks anything weird is going on." I'd be slightly concerned that Pujols is rushing himself back and he might not have his power immediately, if this weren't Pujols. A few years ago, he revealed in the preseason he had a broke elbow tendon or some shizz and went on to win the MVP. He's superhuman, don't doubt him. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Jon Lester – He took a no-hitter into the trainer's room where he found out he had a strained latissimus dorsi. So, he's a dolphin? Well, if he's that smart, have him throw with his other flipper. Or have Al-El touch your lat and make it better! Lester will probably be out a couple of weeks. So it's longer than you want, but shorter than the Big Dig.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Victor Martinez left the game after fouling the ball off his foot. Wanna know our trade luck? We just traded Jason Bay, Cervelli and Mike Gonzalez for V-Mart, Boesch and Desmond. Is this karma for punting catchers in so many leagues over the years? I hate you, fantasy baseball Gods. You smite my team while I give you love. I. Give. You. Love! Oh, bee tee dubya, V-Mart's day-to-day. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Mike Cameron – Returning on Tuesday. Didn't I already talk about this schomhawk? Oh, yeah, I did. (The "I did" link we lead you to the answer. If you ignore the answer, skip 7 pages ahead and slay the dragon.)
Adrian Beltre – 3-for-4, 1 RBI. If you would've popped your head out of a DeLorean in the preseason and told me at the end of May Adrian Beltre would be hitting .335, I would've told you he's headed for fantasy MVP honors. Crazy how far his power has disappeared.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Tommy Hanson's line yesterday was one and two-thirds innings and eight earned runs. Yes, you've been Pwnson'd. Hanson said he felt dizzy during the game, I'm sure his owners can sympathize. Hanson has an ERA of 4.18 on the year and back to back bad starts. Try and put a pine tree air freshener on that and it still stinks. Going into this year, I steered clear of Hanson. I was legitimately worried about his innings pitched jump from '08 to '09. So sell fast right now? Not so fast, Paulo. I'm going under the assumption that you don't own him because you listened to me in the preseason. Hanson has a tremendous K-rate and his walks have been fine. Even yesterday it was an ill-timed homer to Votto that did him in. Do I think Hanson could still be a risk because of his innings last year? Yup, you betcha. But I'd buy him for 50 cents on the dollar. It depends how cheap you can swindle his dramatized owner. It takes alligator blood to check raise to the bed wetter. Anyway, here's what else saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Brooks Conrad – If you didn't see the end of the Braves game, you should try to catch the Brooks Conrad homer. Unlike Nix.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Finally, Jacoby Ellsbury hits the DL. This is probably a DL trip of less than a week. At least the Sawx hope so. Was also revealed Mike Cameron will miss a few weeks with a strained abdomen. (Shouldn't it be a strained abdoman?) If Cameron needs surgery, he could miss up to two months. Darnell McDonald was called up. Darnell McDonald is the answer to the question, "Who is Darnell McDonald?" Other questions his name could've answered were, "Who's the thirty-one year prospect in the outfield?" "This is the Red Sox depth?" and "Wait, what?" Old McDonald has some speed….
Please, blog, may I have some more?I picked up Doug Fister in every league I could. So, that's out of the way. I won't start him the next time out though and I'm not sure I'll start him ever. I may just drop him if I never get a good matchup at home. At home's key. That's the only place I'd start him. Last night, his 7 IP, 1 ER, 4 baserunners, 3 Ks performance is his peak. He pitches to contact and doesn't K anyone. He's similar to Joel Pineiro. Call him Jo-eh. If you were the firster to get him off waivers, chuck him into a package trade for someone much more reliable or exciting. His appeal is limited. So, yes, I grabbed him to chuck him. My apologies, Mister Fister. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Casey Kotchman – Hit his 2nd homer in as many days. Going mono y mano with Soriole, Bradley Bergesen.
Please, blog, may I have some more?We at Razzball realize that exporting our views across the country has damaging consequences on the blogosphere. To help make amends, we are reaching out to leading team blogs and featuring their locally blogged answers to pressing 2010 fantasy baseball questions regarding their team.
Please, blog, may I have some more?With more outfielders than G-Unit feuds, we take it to the top 60 outfielders for 2010 fantasy baseball. These guys may seem like they're not worth the effort, but remember last year Adam Jones, Nelson Cruz and Justin Upton were found here. As with the other 2010 fantasy baseball rankings, where tiers start and stop are mentioned and my projections. Anyway, here's the top 60 outfielders for 2010 fantasy baseball:
Please, blog, may I have some more?With ace-of-the-staff years dating back to 2002, Roy Halladay was the franchise. Well, the Blue Jays front office gave the Blue Jays fans the kanye shrug. While most pitchers go from good to great or great to mindblowing in the NL, Halladay will have to deal with Citizens Bank. He doesn't have much history to go on there, but it obviously favors hitters more than Rogers Centre, where Halladay had a 3.23 career ERA. I think we can nullify that park disadvantage with all the weaker lineups and the pitchers he'll get to face. In his career interleague play, he has a 17-8 record, 3.02 ERA.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Zack Greinke won his 16th game yesterday pretty much the same way he won his other 15. In September, he has a .35 ERA. That's two earned runs through 26 innings. Okay, recent-history lesson aside. The question I've been thinking on a lot lately is where will he be drafted next year. I think it's fair to assume he's moved in front of Johan and Sabathia. Webb and Peavy hit speedbumps this year and Halladay's been his usual dominating self, but he never seems to get the fantasy love. I mean, Halladay was better than everyone last year but wasn't drafted in front of them this year either. So that leaves Greinke and Lincecum. Lincecum's proven; he's a top 2nd round pick. So is Greinke a 2nd to 3rd rounder? On one hand, it seems implausible to me that Greinke's going to go that early (this might be because I don't draft pitchers that early). On the other hand, he's earned it. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Psyche! Before we jump into the roundup, and, oh, we will be jumping, Rudy updated the master standings. With 114 points out of 120, Mowses is parting the rest of you Razzballers with his cane and giant beard. Unfortunately, he has no shot at 120 points. Damn. We hoped with 9 leagues that one would get 120. How many leagues do we need to have to foster a perfect season? We feel like Mr.
Please, blog, may I have some more?
