Too small to fail: Obama signs Nontrepreneurs Act
A new Act just signed into law by President Obama that relaxes accountability requirements for internet startups has been called a 'licence for fraud'. The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (JOBS) Act (HR.3606) is backed by AOL co-founder Steve Case (himself no stranger to fraud allegations) and other titans of Silicon Valley …
Steves name is missing a comma and question mark
Steve, Bong?
Crowd-funding or public investment?
Aren't crowd funding and start-up investment two different things?
Granted this is an article about merka and I know nothing about the rules of funding a start-up in merka, but over here in blighty, I was under the impression that you weren't allowed to solicit publicly for funding for a private (i.e. Ltd) company?
Setting up for the next financial crisis?
Or will this be the finishing touch to the current one? I get the feeling this one could be entering can o' worms territory.
So the banks can now sell worthless stocks in unaudited companies that might very well exist only on paper.
Still at least we can fine them for fraud when they do it then give them so additional bailout money so they can afford to pay the fine.
Re: Fail
No where does this remove the audit requirement. Pureley the onerous SOx overhead.
Wait a minute
I thought one of the lefty mantras was that business was no good and deserved no breaks and needed to be watched like a cat watching a mouse.
Personally, I'm a libertarian and think government is way too invasive in all aspects of our lives, but the inconsistency on this is particularly rankling for some reason.
Re: Wait a minute
"I thought one of the lefty mantras was that business was no good and deserved no breaks and needed to be watched like a cat watching a mouse."
It is.
What's your point.
Oh wait, you think that Obama's a leftie... Good God, the West Coast may be blue, but that doesn't make the Democrats left-wing!
'Sarbanes-Oxley was brought in to protect investors after the tech bubble a decade ago saw internet stocks hyped by the banks'
I thought SOX was an almost-direct result of the Arhtur Andersen/Enron scandal.
As to the 'find a bigger idiot' point, some would say that spreading the risk among a vastly larger population - each of whom is investing a fraction of what the 'big idiots' would invest - is a better way of handling the risk.
Re: Really?
The sarbaines oxley act (and im guessing with emphasis on sox 404 here) came into effect after the collapse of enron/worldcom and the fall of andersen, yes.
as someone who knows how expensive sox compliance can be im carefully optimistic about this... large multinationals trading on the nyse might not even notice the cost of introducing sox controls/audits, but for startups it can be a significant economic hurdle.
if you need an (inaccurate, as they always are) automobile based metaphor: its the difference of a large carcompany having to do all kinds of crash tests and trials before a car can be declared roadlegal/legally sold in a market, while a private person only needs to have a yearly MOT.
The startups wont be excempt from any and all auditing, they simply will not have to comply with the entire sox framework (which was in any case designed to stop giant screwups like enron/worldcom from happening again, not to make sure that new startup companies never took off).
Re: Really?
Oddie, you hit the nail on the head. This does not remove any normal audit requirements, just the vast and bloated requirements for SOx complience. SOx is similar to certification complience, you need to tick boxes and show you procedures are correct before you are complient, but at the end of the day, there is nothing preventing the CFO from manipulating the figures in excel before submitting them.
SOx has been described as a hidden tax on US based companies, reducing or removing it for start ups is a good thing.
Re: Re: Really?
There's a lot more to it than SOx compliance.
Re: Really? Audit REQUIREMENTS?
What are these Requirements to be audited of which you speak? There is no law that says you have to be audited by anyone so I am not sure what you refer to. The SEC mandates that you are but Instagram is not listed on the SEC and neither is FaceBook so they don't have to audited (unless their investors or board insist on it)
The JOBS act says you don't need more than two years of audited accounts to list and you don't have to disclose info on your finances before then.
Getting my coat to buy a load of umbrella companies with clean balance books to float.
Why have rules - we still get Enron, Bank implosions, and more
It seems that all these regulations - likely over 50 meters of them if stacked, do nothing more than create the illusion of trust.
The stock market is more like a wild west gambling casino than a bank.
If you took all rules away, good honest companies would still seek to be known as such, and a network of trust would quickly evolve - companies would exist solely to rate the claims and ethics of other companies. The system would be more accurate and less costly than the current one, which is a mess.
Re: Why have rules - we still get Enron, Bank implosions, and more
SarbOx compliance has cost investors more money that the scandals that caused it in the first place. The ONLY beneficiaries of it have been the accounting firms.
Another shining example of the effectiveness of government regulation in the financial sector, and why we don't need the government's "help".
Re: Why have rules - we still get Enron, Bank implosions, and more
Utter, utter Bollocks. All SOx is saying firms should do is understand what their business is and have some assurance that the figures they present to the market are accurate.
What has cost a load of money is idiots like you massively inflating the requirements and so allowing charlatans to make a massive amount of money on the FUD surrounding it.
Re: Why have rules - we still get Enron, Bank implosions, and more
And you think that assurance is cheap, or done in house? Who is spewing bollocks now? (hint: it isn't me!)
Caveat Emptor
It's the investor's / buyer's duty to do their due diligence before investing in a company.
The reason the financial system collapsed in 2008 was that banks were knowingly repackaging risky assets, convinced the ratings agencies they were so perfectly safe to deserve a AAA rating, and the ratings agencies let themselves be duped. Investors should have been aware, but perhaps weren't, that ratings agencies are paid by the banks that produce the asset. So if there's a doubt as to the value of an asset, the bank will take it's business to the rating agency that gives it the best rating.
Wrong Focus
Seems to me this is a treatment for the symptom, not the cause. By all means decrease regulation for start-ups to ease their burden, but punish those that are found to be selling worthless stock (i.e. banks, Grouponesque companies) by either revoking their license, fines or criminal prosecution.
OTOH as a modest investor myself I've always heeded the warning that the value of your investment can go up as well as down, and to read a company's Annual Financial Report, but I suspect I'm of the minority.
When investing in a start-up it's basically implicit that you could lose money. If someone can't stomach that, they should look for lower risk investments. If they aren't aware of that, then they should not be investing at all - since they clearly don't know what they're doing.
Sooo a 9 year old FAILED lawsuit about a 12 year old event in still important?
I am no admirer of Case, but the indulgent reference to a failed lawsuit was dumb. Has the Register never had a failed lawsuit?
Oh, they're only waiving SOX,
from the title of the article I thought it was something that actually protected investors. The only thing SOX has protected is the asses of the politicians who should have been booted for their involvement in Enron et al. As a protector of the typical investor it is a colossal failure. As an impediment to small businesses, it has been an astounding success. As for the fear-mongering over penny stocks and crows sourcing, I guess you've never read the start of a prospectus on any of a blue chip stock. Here's a hint: it's the same boiler plate. To me it makes more sense to have more people with small chunks of money they can afford to lose investing in these sorts of companies than one or two big hedge/venture capital outfits that will take a substantial hit on their balance sheets if it fails, which 2.5 out 3 will in the current climate.
Is this any different than the unscrupulous acts of U.S. politicians?
Basically the elected officials in Congress are defrauding Americans so it's no surprise they want to help other criminals. If they prove Obama is not a U.S. citizen then what the Hell are they gonna do with an illegal Presidency? Oh shitze, that should cause some arse puckering regarding legislation signed into law.
When you need a story in hurry - conflate
Whatever the merits or otherwise of the JOBS act this story conflates the SEC and start-ups egregiously.
The SEC *only* looks at the affairs of public companies. That is companies which raise equity finance through US stock markets like NYSE and NASDAQ. There are no start-ups on either of these indexes (unless you consider a division of a much larger entity spun off to be a start-up). It's a costly business to go public - not only the act of going public but meeting the statutory obligations of keeping stockholders updated.
Facebook is a famous start-up but, even so, it's been 7 years to get to the point the investors - many of whom like Bono, Microsoft, Russian oligarchs, Goldman Sachs etc have deep pockets - have reasonable prospect of raising finance this way.
Meanwhile in the US regular small companies - including real start-ups - face almost no regulatory scrutiny at all. It varies from state-to-state but US 'start-ups' companies can be quite large - revenues in the $10millions - before there's anything more than employee income tax to pay or paperwork to submit. Compare this to the UK where *any* small company - even those not actually trading - or self-employed trader has quite a bit of paperwork to complete each year.
So it seems like this is an article defending the rights of governments everywhere to over regulate and meddle wherever they can. And, in the absence of suitable evidence has IMO, brought together two stray thoughts in an attempt to provide cover for this argument.
Get on the gravy train
If you've contributed to the Messiah's election campaign then you should be able to get on the gravy train and cash in by starting a bogus company and getting federal funds for "research" and development. Then in two years you go tits-up leaving creditors up the creek while you've pocketed millions in "compensation" for your excellent management skills. It's all part of the grand scheme.

(when I was a kid, we'd tie a rope to the horses halter, jump on and ride off like the crazy kids we were :). not as effective as a full bit and bridle, but it worked. again, I think the horse wanted to go too which is likely why it worked ;)) to use a halter fastened to traces for pulling would put all the leverage on the critters poll and nose. a yoke allows the transferance of energy via the neck and shoulders, which are much stronger. halter and yoke are both terms for specific technologies/objects. they are not dependant on the critter they're used on, at least not in the horse, cow (goat/sheep/llama/etc) world... hope that helps! --Anne-Marie On Tue 09/11/10 15:23 , Judith Epstein judith at ipstenu.org sent: > I thought cows and their boyfriends (oxen, bulls, same word) were on > yokes, and draft horses were on halters.

If you are into the business of goat farming, it is definite that before you started out with your venture, you made plans on where you will place the herd. So what makes a good goat housing then?
Good goat housing should be able to accomplish one important thing: the herd's protection! Ideal shelters for animals should be able to protect them from extreme temperatures, rain, and can give them a safe place to rest at night.
One good thing about goats is that these animals are adaptable to rough terrain and weather conditions. But then again, goats should still be provided with protection from these elements in order for their stress experience will be minimized, enabling them to be more productive and ensure that they grow healthier.
Good goat housing plans should also include keeping the moisture out, lest you risk the herd to contract respiratory diseases. Your best choice would be to use wood because this material does not accumulate water.
Ideal goat housing is an open building – it can keep the moisture out during winter months and can also ensure maximum airflow during the summer months. It would also do the animals good if there are trees in the perimeter since trees are also good insulators and they can keep the herd cool during summer.
Having an open building also ensures ample air circulation which can prevent ammonia build up from animal urine and feces. It is also important that beddings are provided for the animals to act as floor insulators. You can use materials such as sawdust, wood shavings, and wood boards as beddings. There are actually different types of bedding materials that also have different capabilities in absorbing urine. Bedding materials are not expensive and are readily available.
You might also want to consider what other countries do, using slanted board walls and floors for easier cleaning and good airflow. It would also be a good idea if you provide the animals with stilted housing to protect the goats from soil parasites.
As for the roofing materials, you can also choose from a lot of materials – from hay to metal, whatever you deem it necessary. But it is good to point out, though, that hay and straw roofing are excellent insulation that are great during cold months and hot months. If you will use metal, make sure you paint it white so that sunlight would be reflected thus preventing heating the goat housing.
If you are just starting to build your goat farm and still unsure of how to go about with goat housing, you can also consult some established goat farmers, you will definitely learn a lot from them.
Raising meat goats can be simple and easy if based on those who have done it. If you are looking for more tips on goat housing, raising meat goats and want to avoid the common painful mistakes made by novice and experienced farmers too, go to: http://www.raisingmeatgoats.com
Christine's Ark
The extraordinary story of Christine Townend and an Indian animal shelter Christine Townend is an extraordinary person, who has dedicated her life to helping the most vulnerable creatures in our society – the animals that we rely on for food, labour or just companionship. In the 1970s she founded Animal Liberation in an attempt to prevent cruel farming practices. It made her a highly controversial figure yet Christine never turned away from her mission to lessen animal suffering. While Animal Liberation did enormous good, Christine's real lifework was still ahead of her. A visit to India in 1990 offered her the opportunity to take over a decrepit animal shelter just outside the city of Jaipur, called Help in Suffering. When she first arrived it contained little more than a few stray dogs and the odd goat. Yet from that small beginning Christine has had an immense impact across the length and breadth of the country, transforming the lives of thousands of animals and the people who rely on them for their livelihood. During this remarkable journey she has had to constantly balance her determination to make a difference with her loyalty to her husband and two sons. Christine's Ark is an inspiring and poignant story of India, its animals and its people, and of one woman's unwavering struggle to change the world for the better.
Enjoy Wadi Rum Bedouin Camp
My larger camp is the Enjoy Wadi Rum Bedouin Camp. One side is surrounded by the mountains of Wadi Rum while from the other you can look over a panoramic view of the desert. This view is one of the few best known sunset locations. This camp has three big tents surrounding a large open space where you can take in the sun during the day and view the stars at night. It also has a kitchen and toilet block with shower. There is both a western toilet and eastern toilet, for your convenience, and one shower. The main tent is where we all can sit around a fire or enjoy the Bedouin food together. The other two tents provide sleeping areas. One as a dorm and the other divided into four rooms. Each of these tents is constructed from goat's hair material which has been providing a weather resistant shelter for Bedouin people throughout the ages. With its location in the middle of the desert you can easily take a stroll to some of the surrounding dunes and mountains or relax and listen to the sounds of the birds echoing off the cliffs. My other camp (The Lawrence Spring Camp) is where my mother lives by Lawrence Spring, one of the top tourist sights in Wadi Rum. This tent was entirely hand-made by my family, including the kitchen, toilet, and animal enclosures. She raises and feeds her goats here with the help of her grand-daughter. If you choose to stay here you will truly experience the Bedouin life with somebody that was born and raised in the desert and lived there all her life. You will share dinner and breakfast with my mother here and listen to her desert stories until the sun goes down. My mother loves to spend time with guests from all over the world.

text: D.C. Republicans are Stoking a GOP Civil War Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 18 Jul 2013 post a comment The immigration debate threatens to tear the Republican Party apart--not because of disagreements over the principle of immigration reform, but because of disagreements over strategy and tactics that may become insurmountable. The party leadership, believing that immigration reform will appeal to Hispanic voters, is attempting to impose its will on rank-and-file conservatives who object to current legislative proposals. The recently-passed Senate immigration bill includes provisions for border security as well as the legalization of illegal aliens. Conservatives believe, however, that legalization must be contingent on border security, since the Obama administration has a record of refusing to enforce laws it does not like. Neither the so-called "triggers" in the bill, nor the new spending on border security, provide adequate guarantees, conservatives say. Republican leaders concede these arguments, but argue that failing to pass any legislation now will simply make the problem worse. Privately, some of the same Republican leaders argue for passing the legislation for purely political reasons, in order to stop the attrition of Hispanic voters. The party's recent internal "autopsy" insists bluntly that Republicans "must embrace and champion comprehensive immigration reform." Period. Opponents of the bill point out that the party's share of the Hispanic vote fell after Reagan's amnesty of 1986, and that Mitt Romney would have lost in 2012 even with an overwhelming majority of the Hispanic vote. The grass-roots suspects the leadership's real motivation is to reward special interest lobbies. The leadership, meanwhile, has joined Democrats in accusing conservative opponents of the bill of "nativism." Broadly speaking, however, there is no substantive disagreement among Republicans over immigration. There are a few groups that oppose any increase in immigration, but they are a small minority. The real fight is about whether Washington can be trusted. The same fault lines appear elsewhere--in the NSA scandal, for example, where grass-roots anger about the Bush-era program is driven by mistrust of Obama's government. These are tactical disagreements, but they are serious, and perhaps fatal. Members of the Republican elite are warning openly that they will leave if immigration reform does not pass. Some conservatives, notably Sarah Palin, have suggested that a third party may be an option. Meanwhile, the party is failing to exploit public outrage over a string of Obama administration scandals to build support for the 2014 midterm election effort. What the party needs most is leadership that can reconcile the two factions. However, much of the Republican establishment is committed to asserting its control. In the midst of the immigration debate, House leaders are joining their Democratic colleagues in a nationwide tour, "Become America," that will attempt to impress upon voters the need for immigration reform--even though only 6% of Americans say it is their top priority. That marks a stark contrast from 2009, when Republican leaders reacted to the 2008 defeat by embarking on a "listening tour." The result was that newly-motivated conservative activists, driven by the Tea Party, rallied behind a successful Republican election effort. In 2013, Republican leaders are no longer listening. They are lecturing--and raising money to protect moderate incumbents from conservative primaries. The party's grass-roots, whose favored leaders have abandoned them by embracing immigration reform (Marco Rubio) or accepting Obamacare's Medicaid funding (Chris Christie, Rick Scott, and others), have no way of responding. They rally around junior Senators Rand Paul and Ted Cruz, who have little power but put up a good fight. And they continue to adhere to conservative media, especially on talk radio and the Internet. Republican leaders inside the Beltway increasingly resent the power of conservative media. They have begun to identify with time-worn Democratic criticisms--that talk radio is bigoted and shrill, that conservative bloggers are unreliable, that grass-roots heroes are "wacko" (to borrow from Sen. John McCain). They fail to understand the gap that conservative media fill--namely, the need for coherent, courageous opposition. Opposition takes many forms in conservative new media. Rush Limbaugh celebrates opposition for its own sake: "What's wrong with saying 'no'?" he often asks. Mark Levin is about to offer a pro-active opposition agenda for constitutional reform in his forthcoming book, The Liberty Amendments. And Breitbart News offers a basis for political opposition by reporting news from an unabashedly conservative perspective. The left created its own new forms of opposition, and opposition media, during the Bush era. The difference was that the anti-war movement and the "netroots" toppled Democrat leaders and purging the centrists. Conservatives have been more patient with the GOP establishment, but that patience is wearing thin. Those Republicans in Washington who are stoking the fight should try listening again--before it is too late.

Ofcom will delegate video-on-demand regulation
Media regulator Ofcom will delegate much of the oversight of video on demand services when a new European Union Directive comes into force in December. Ofcom has outlined which services will and which won't be covered by the new rules. The Television Without Frontiers Directive has been replaced in Brussels by the Audio Visual …
Ah. The EU.
For a moment there I thought that they might be about to get off their fat backsides and castigate the providers for cutting off content from anyone whose IP range they don't like and insisting that they treat Europe as one audience. You know, this useful single market stuff that's the only bit of what they do that the public give a rat's arse about.
But no. It's just the usual crud about who to, when, where and how you're allowed to show someone's dick.
Presumably they got a nice free lunch out of the content providers for skirting round the difficult bit that flies in the face of their stated objectives. Again.
Ofcom involved?
Then we're all doomed. Have they ever done anything that benefited the general public rather than business and the government?

The Axis summer wetsuit from Xcel is great value and has some fantastic features that will help keep you warm and flexible that you'd expect to find on a more expensive wetsuit

Great wetsuit and great service. Ordered a M which was too long so sent it back and swapped for a MS. Nice and easy to exchange and pretty quick too. Thanks MSW!"Jason, 5 Aug. Review is from Xcel Mens 3mm Axis (Black). Translate.
This is the 2014 version of this Xcel Wetsuit. Magicseaweed are an official Xcel stockist and part of the Xcel Warranty and Repair scheme
The Axis summer wetsuit from Xcel is great value and has some fantastic features that will help keep you warm and flexible that you'd expect to find on a more expensive wetsuit.
The Axis is equivalent to last seasons X-Flex style of suit, with single lined, slick skin neoprene on the chest and back panels with the polypro thermal lining on the inside of both giving you protection against harsh wind.
The seams are re-inforced in critical places with circles of tape on the inside and are glued and blind stitched throughout.
A front zip system allows more flexibility through the shoulders and means less water gets in through the neck compared to a back zip entry.
If you want a stretchy, warm wetsuit for summer surfing at the right price the Axis is a great choice.
This is a 3/2 wetsuit, it has 3mm panels in the torso and legs and 2mm panels in the arms, this ensures you get the warmth in the core of the body and the flexibility to paddle in the arms.
The best thickness of wetsuit for you depends mostly on where and what time of year you will be surfing, 3mm is the most popular thickness for summer wetsuits in most of the UK and Europe.
We wear our 3mm wetsuits from Spring to Autumn in the South West of the UK.
We have created a guide which goes into more depth about choosing the best thickness for you so if you've got any doubts take a look at the msw wetsuit thickness guide
Getting the right size wetsuit is critical, the wrong size will not keep you warm and could end up putting more stress on the seams, different brands use slightly different size charts so you may not be the same size across different makes of wetsuit, we suggest looking at the size chart page to judge which size will be the best fit for you.
If you have any questions about the differences between wetsuits, the fit or the thickness that would be best for you give us a call on 01548 854660 or an e-mail on email@example.com where we're happy to help.

Some of the significant highlights of the First Quarter, 2014 overtime performance are:
Excluding Snow, Superstorm Sandy and other emergency events, civilian overtime totaled 22,000 hours, or 12%, over plan. This overrun was primarily due to higher than planned patron services for the National Football League (NFL) Super Bowl multi-day event and PATH's enhanced train service for the Pulaski Skyway closure originally scheduled for February when staffing and schedules were set. These operational requirements for both the Super Bowl and Pulaski closure were not finalized at the time the budget was set in early January 2014. All other areas are on target and expected to adhere to budgeted levels throughout 2014. Excluding the overrun of 17,000 overtime hours associated with enhanced patron service for the Super Bowl, civilian overtime is 4,600 hours, or 2.6%, over plan. Additional factors contributing to this overrun are catch-up of delayed construction and maintenance due to winter weather and higher than planned absences.
Police overtime is 38,000 hours, or 14%, over plan. The overrun is primarily due to higher than planned Super Bowl support, unanticipated special crime incident drills and the lengthening of the recruit training week to include Saturdays in order to accelerate the graduation of the 112th Class to support staffing requirements. It should be noted that the costs of overtime incurred for police coverage during the Super Bowl and all special crime incident drills are fully recovered through grants.
As previously reported, an Overtime Steering Committee was established at the beginning of 2014 to drive agency focus on the new Overtime Management Program framework of "Mitigation, Monitor & Control." The Steering Committee has been effective in identifying root causes that drive overtime as well as in developing new mitigation strategies and assessing issues preventing the achievement of overtime goals.
Civilian mitigation strategies underway include Integrated Absence Management to ensure timely return to work from absence related to sick and injured-on-duty (IOD) occurrences and Performance Management to reinforce the agency's expectation that each manager has a responsibility in monitoring and controlling overtime hours.
Police mitigation strategies include continuation of regular management meetings instituted by the Chief Security Officer to focus on root causes; Managing to a total workload by balancing overruns in overtime hours with under runs in straight-time hours; Training and staffing of more officers with specialized skills required for certain detail posts to ensure a full complement of qualified staff is available for deployment, thereby avoiding overtime usage; Systems and processes through a scheduling and post management system to restrict the creation of new posts without authorization; and, Filling staff deficiencies with the 113th class of 260 recruits anticipated to graduate in mid-August which will limit the need to cover vacant posts on overtime.
In the first quarter of 2014, the agency has continued to concentrate on the framework of "Mitigation, Monitor & Control" regarding overtime and will continue inculcating it into the agency's operations.

System will not fully restore
After the latest set of updates, for the third time now (starting last September) I have two updates installing again and again.
I did a system restore back to the beginning of the latest updates, but now get a 0xc0000022 error telling me that some files could not be restored. I now have 14 updates queuing up to be installed, so that part has worked.
Do I just ignore the error report, or is there something more basic I need to do to my system to get out of the recurring jam that I seem to be in?

Following details give users more information regarding tips to fix issues with system restore in Windows 7:
* Antivirus programs
* Check system file integrity
* Free up hard disk space
Antivirus programs
The issues with the functioning of System Restore feature on Windows 7 may be because of presence of malware on the system. The malware infections might have locked the system files which prevent the restore. Similarly, the problem might also be because the antivirus program is running in the background when the restore process is started. Such problems can be resolved by removing the malware from the system (if possible) and also terminating the antivirus software before initializing the restore process.
Check system file integrity
If some of the system files associated with the System Restore feature itself got damaged in some way, then the restore process might fail. Windows 7 users facing difficulties when using the System Restore feature are advised to check the integrity of the system files using sfc/scannow command in the CMD. If any system files are missing, users would be prompted to insert a genuine installation disk of the OS and the files would be replaced. Replacing the files would resolve the problems with System Restore.
Free up hard disk space
System Restore in Windows 7 requires free space to function. There are lots of important system files that need to be gathered and changed and lack of free space on the system would cause the restore process to fail or freeze in the middle. All Windows 7 users experiencing System Restore problems are suggested to free up hard disk space to get the System Restore working properly.
I thank you for your help, but I must say that I am very disappointed at this ongoing update situation, where the systems of users all over the world are put at risk. I still do not understand the basic problem - or maybe I do.

I am reaching the conclusion that, as you suggest, I may have an HD issue of some kind. Luckily, and by sheer accident, I have two Windows 7 systems on two separate HDs (too complicated to explain ), so I have fired up the other one, installed Office 2010, and done around 60 updates. I have checked with sfc /scannow and everything is fine. I will now put the original one on extended tests, to zero in on the problem, or maybe just change it anyway - it is only 160GB. I have done a extended burst of memory checking, just to eliminate that possibility.
Fingers crossed!

Sunreef 80 Carbon Line superyacht hits the water
Sunreef Yachts' first luxury catamaran in its new Carbon Line hit the open water for the first time last month and is undergoing sea trials before making its way to the Cannes Boat Show 2013 in mid-September for its world premiere. To reach its lightship weight (the weight of the completed vessel, minus any provisions, supplies or cargo) of 45 tonnes (49 tons), the 80 Levante is made from an advanced composite sandwich that combines vinylester, PVC foam and carbon/glass fiber.

With its previous circumnavigation of the planet, it had already set the record for longest distance traveled by a purely solar-powered boat. Now, the Tûranor PlanetSolar (which is also the world's largest solar-powered watercraft), has broken its own 2010 record for fastest Atlantic crossing by a solar-powered boat. Read More
The MS Tûranor PlanetSolar, the world's largest solar-powered boat, took to the seas once more on Thursday – this time, in the name of science. Equipped with unique instruments, the Tûranor will carry a team of scientists who will monitor the air and water of the Atlantic Ocean's Gulf Stream, a current which influences the climates of North America's east coast and Europe's west. The goal is to gain understanding of the processes which regulate climate. Read More
NEWS FLASH - The outright world speed sailing record was smashed this afternoon (November 24) by Paul Larsen in the Vestas Sailrocket 2 with the astonishing time of 65.45 knots. It's the third time in eight days that Larsen has piloted the Vestas Sailrocket to a new outright world record, raising the bar from 55.65 knots to 65.45 knots. It has been a spectacular week for sailing in general, with more than a dozen world speed sailing records broken at two different venues in Namibia. The outright speed sailing records for both 500 meters (initially 59.23 then 59.38 and now 65.45 kts) and one nautical mile (55.32 kts) were set in Walvis Bay by Australian Paul Larsen and the British-designed, inclined-rig hydrofoil Vestas SailRocket 2. Simultaneously, 600 km away, the annual Luderitz Speed Challenge has seen nine world outright speed records for sailboards established in just a week, including surpassing 50 knots (92.6 km/h) and 60 mph (52.14 kts) on a sailboard. The breaking of world records is almost certain to continue over the coming weeks, with Larsen now seemingly capable of pushing the outright record within reach of the 70 knot barrier and the now legendary Luderitz Speed Challenge continuing until December 16, with kiteboarders joining the event on December 3.

Luxury yacht designers Ardoin Yacht Design and U-Boat Worx submarines have collaborated on the perfect companion for U-Boat's one, two or three person submarines.

Europe's largest ecological catamaran sets sail
It may be 24 meters (79 feet) long, 10.5 meters (34.5 feet) wide and be able to carry up to 150 passengers, but the Eco Slim seagoing catamaran produces less of a carbon footprint than vessels much smaller than itself. There are two main reasons for this – its electric motors, which are powered by several onboard renewable sources, and its lightweight, streamlined hull, that allows it to move through the water using a minimum amount of energy. Created by Spain's Drassanes Dalmau shipbuilders and launched on March 31st, it's officially Europe's largest "green" catamaran. Read More
The French-designed Platypus is a new and immensely practical two-person electric underwater exploration concept designed to travel for eight hours above the water at 10-12 knots (18.5-22.2 km/h), or below the water at 3-4 knots (5.5-7.5 km/h). Most importantly, it offers a safe and stable below-water platform that requires no operating equipment to be worn by the pilot or passenger other than masks because the pontoons contain an integrated compressor which supplies air via hoses. The Platypus requires no license, produces no local emissions, is completely silent and offers plenty of storage space and a stable platform for many applications including diving, photography, bird watching and eco tourism.

Infinyte Marine hopes its electric i4 will be a quiet success
For many people who own lakefront property, noisy combustion-engined motorboats that leave clouds of exhaust and oil slicks in their wakes have pretty much become a given. Hopefully, however, quiet and clean-running electric watercraft may soon take over a significant portion of the pleasure-boating market. While consumers can already pre-order the planned 8-passenger solar-electric Loon pontoon boat, another option is the smaller Infinyte i4 catamaran, which began production in 2010. Its maker, Canada's Infinyte Marine, also has plans for a larger boat. Read More

As I'm sure you can guess from my company name, we sell USB Sticks. We've already got a couple of software packages we offer pre-installed on them, which are good for their intended uses, but I just think there's so much more potential...
So, what sort of software would YOU like to see on a USB Stick?
What sort of software do you load onto existing sticks?
What sort of software does your company make, perhaps, that would lend itself well to distribution on USB Sticks?
It's a bit cheeky, but I'm hoping you guys on the front lines could help advise me on the best way to, well, get your custom.
Also, if any software company reps here think their product would lend itself to USB Sticks, I'd love a PM with more details?
