I have a Maple tree that planted itself in my backyard a few years ago and I'm trying to determine what type of Maple it is. In the summer the leaves are a light green (almost a yellow-ish green or lime green), and in fall the leaves turn brilliant yellow. Anyone know what type of Maple this is? I know they grow quite large, because there are others in my neighbourhood, but I'm trying to determine the rate at which they grow to that height so I can decide whether to leave it where it is, or transplant it to another location. It planted itself about 5 - 7 years ago, and grew about a foot or more in the last year. It's now about 6.5' feet tall. Thanks for any info! |

It's most likely a Manitoba Maple (Acer negundo). |

Sounds like you may have a Princeton Gold Maple (Acer platanoides 'Princeton Gold'). Try looking this tree up on the web to see if you do. Hope this helps |

Ian, the species A. platanoides and their cultivars are border line hardy in the prairie provinces. If her tree self-seeded and her neighbours all have these trees, it's a Manitoba maple which are very common and very hardy in our zone. Sharon |

Thank you both for your replies - you've been very helpful! Much appreciated. |
Not sure it's a Manitoba maple (acer negundo) as that tree would likely grow more than a foot per year. The first few years it gets established and then takes off. Not to add to the confusion, but is the entire tree greenish yellow? Maples on the prairies can be susceptible to iron chlorosis, lack of iron caused by clay soil, which might make the leaves more yellow than they normally would be. Whatever it is, if it's a nice color and doesn't grow too fast, it sounds like a nice tree to keep around. Glen |

I have the exact same thing, methinks. Could it be just 'yellow maple' ? All I know, it has a much slower growth rate than the sugar maple. Grows like the red maple. |

I used to defend sidewalk suits at the City. The "Big Appple Map" scam is just the tip of the iceberg. Many of the suits are completely fraudulent, with the accident happening in a completely different way (a fall from a bike, not a trip on a crack) or arguably not happening at all (no witnesses, an odd "injury" like bulging discs, plaintiffs who file multiple trip-fall suits, etc.). All a plaintiff lawyer need do before filing suit, I suppose, is ask a potential plaintiff: did you fall near this symbol? while pointing to the map. And a defense attorney would never find out because of attorney-client privilege. Who knows what goes on. Even assuming any falls/defects are genuine, they're usually so minor as to be ridiculous against the backdrop of a fast-paced urban area. The sidewalks of NYC are NOT killing people! Sometimes, plaintiff lawyers would accuse the city of "racism" because sidewalks in Manhattan were nicer than the Bronx. Wow. The New York trip-fall suits against the city will go down as one of the biggest scams of the century.

Regarding the case of the now-rich dental student, there is a poignant motion for summary judgment in that case available here:
http://www.vpcomm.umich.edu/pa/key/pdf/DefendantsMotion.pdf .
What happened is that the dental student claimed she had Attention Deficit Disorder for which she needed a variety of special accommodations, such as the right to take the clinical dental exams in a private room so that she would not be distracted, unlimited deferrals in case she did not "feel ready" to take the exam on that day, and so on.
Some of the professors resigned rather than to allow this obviously inept student to get these special privileges, which would have made meaningless her certification and placed her patients in danger.
Anyway, she continued blundering through school, collecting D and E grades, missing multiple cavities, failing to provide proper anaesthesia, missing large ulcers right next to the tooth, and on and on for pages.
This is truly a tragic case, not only for the way in which it penalized dentists who were trying to protect patients, but even more tragically for the message it sends medical schools: quality of patient care is immaterial, only blind adherence to the demands of unqualified students.
Now, the worst student in the dental school is the wealthiest; and the most honorable dental professors are the poorest. It's very, very sad.

Regarding patent busting, are you pro or con?
America's prosperity rests on innovation, and the ability of people to profit from their ingenuity.Busting patents causes more risk. Nobody should lose their golden goose because they hired an idiot lawyer.
Do you want to die of some painful slow disease, because the giant pharmaceutical company was afraid to develop the drug because the patent wasn't solid enough?
Do you want to guy who is only 6 months away from making flying cars and teleportation booths to give up and go back to driving a bus, because he's just one guy and he expects to get screwed by the lawyers?
- 5 01.06.09 at 8:09 pm
The majority of patent busting is done against companies who file (and are awarded) spurious patents that should never have been granted in the first place due to prior art or other such causes.

New York City Bed Sores Lawyer
Nursing Home Injuries From Neglect and Abuse in New York
Perhaps the most preventable type of injury that can occur to residents of nursing homes and other elder care facilities are bed sores. Bed sores occur when a patient is not moved regularly. Bed sores can develop on many areas of the body and can cause significant health problems. In the worst cases, bed sores can lead to serious infection and death. If your family member has been mistreated, your loved one deserves aggressive and knowledgeable representation from our attorneys.
At The Perecman Law Firm, our lawyers believe that nursing homes and elder care facilities that permit neglectful and abusive behavior should be held accountable. Our attorneys have decades of experience, and will help you and your family get the money you need for medical expenses and other expenses related to your accident. With our firm on your side, you will feel confident that your needs are being met.
Common Causes of Bed Sores in Nursing Homes
Bed sores are generally caused when a person, who cannot move himself or herself, is not repositioned on a regular basis. Nursing home staff members are supposed to perform these duties, and when this is neglected, bed sores can form on feet, legs, arms, hips and other areas of the body.
These sores, which may also be called pressure sores, are dead tissue that is caused by constant compression of the blood vessels and tissues in the area. They are easily preventable with appropriate attention but can lead to significant health complications when they occur. A bed sore is a sign that a resident is not receiving basic care and attention from nursing home staff.
Hold the Nursing Home Accountable
If your family member has developed a bed sore, the first step is to talk with nursing home staff about it. The second step is to talk with a personal injury lawyer at The Perecman Law Firm to learn more about your rights and options.
Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation, where we can discuss your situation. From our office in Manhattan, we serve clients in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, Westchester and throughout New York.

When we lived in Banja Luka, we had a nanny/housekeeper named Brana. She had (and still has) two daughters. Maja, the older of the two was in college at the time. She later married an Orthodox deacon and moved to Australia, where they still live today. Maja's husband is an assistant to one of the Serbian Orthodox bishops in Australia.
Recently I received a surprise package in the mail (always a good experience, as long as the package is not ticking...). The package was from Maja. It contained two books, one of which was a beautiful coffee-table book published in Montenegro. The book was about a saint who is very well-known in Serbia and Montenegro, but whom I had never heard of: St. Basil of Ostrog. The book contained a detailed biography of this holy man, along with many stories about how he has continued to minister to people down to the present time. Also figuring prominently in the book are stories about the monastery that the saint founded, with stories about the monastery and words of wisdom of the monks that live there.
Being a coffee-table book, the book obviously had huge pages...300 to be precise. And even though quite a few of the pages contain full-size (beautiful) pictures, it still took me forever to read it. But it was well-worth it. I thought I would share with you a brief biography of St. Basil (from Wikipedia), and then one of the many miracle stories from the book (this one was my personal favorite). I hope you enjoy them.
Basil of Ostrog was Bishop of Zahumlje in Herzegovina. He was born in Popovo Selo, Herzegovina on December 12, 1610, and became a monk at the Monastery of the Dormition Tvrdoš near Trebinje.
His modesty forbidding him to push himself forward to occupy the high positions his piety and capabilities recommended him for, he was elected as Bishop of Zahumlje and Skenderia against his will.
After his death in 1671 he was buried at the Ostrog Monastery he had founded in Montenegro, and his tomb in a cave-church soon became a site of pilgrimage for Christians (both Orthodox and Roman Catholic) and Muslims drawn by reports of miracles occurring through the intercession of the saint. The Monastery of Ostrog is now one of the major pilgrimage sites in the Balkans, and large numbers of pilgrims gather particularly at Pentecost. St. Basil of Ostrog is commemorated in the Serbian orthodox liturgical calendar on April 29.
Now, here is the miracle story from the book. It is being told by a young pilgrim to the monastery who is relating a story his grandfather used to tell him.
"...it was sometime around the Feast of St. Elijah in 1921 when a great plague of locusts came upon the land from the direction of Byelopavlichi and Chevo to our side of the mountain, at Tsutse. Wherever the locusts settled, they devoured everything: the fields, the orchards, anything that had a green leaf or a tender fruit on it! The people tried to defend themselves from this attack, killing the locusts as they could, but it was no good. They just came and came.
Now, my Grandfather had planted corn, wheat and some rye in his field. They were poor; it was all he had to feed his family and he was afraid that if the locusts ate everything, his family would go hungry. One day, he had just let the sheep out to graze in the meadows when they were startled by something and came running back. He looked and saw a terrible sight: a sea of locusts was on its way across the land towards his crops!
My Grandfather then ran into the house, and, hospitable as he was and full of the fear of God, he took a tray with some bread and salt on it. Telling his family not to do anything bad to the locusts, he ran out with the bread and salt and put it down on the boundry line of his property for the first locusts to eat. Then he turned towards the East, crossed himself and prayed to God that this plague might be taken away from him. As the first locusts crawled onto his land, he greeted them as though they were real guests! 'Come, locusts,' he said. 'No one will bother you, for I know that you have been sent by God as a punishment for our sins. Eat your fill but do not leave us hungry!'
The swarm of locusts fell upon his crop and what did my Grandfather do? He ran back to the house and brought out an icon of St. Basil [of Ostrog], glory and mercy be upon him, which he hung up on the branches of a tree in the middle of his field. And so he put his life into the hands of God and St. Basil.
The locusts stayed on his property for three full days. When they left his property and flew away, there were so many of them that they blocked out the sun. They had not touched the rye, corn or other crops. After a few days my Grandfather and his sons went to reap the crop and saw that the year's crop was of better quality than any other year. There was a tiny hole at the top of each grain of wheat, as though someone had pricked it with the point of a needle.
They say that the word about this miracle spread all over the place and that even some police officers from Tsetinye came to see Grandfather and learn more about the miracle."
Pretty cool, eh? Reading this book has been a great blessing to me. It has also made me want to visit the historic monastery at Ostrog, and to venerate the relics of this great saint. May God grant that this will one day be a reality.

I recently served as a panelist, along with Dr. Katy Votava, President of Goodcare.com, and Thomas West, ChFC, of Signature Estate & Investment Advisors, for a webcast sponsored by Investment News entitled, "Women in Retirement: Managing Longevity." With over 1,200 financial advisors registering to be in attendance, moderators Frederick Gabriel and Mary Beth Franklin attempted to shed light on a growing financial problem among Baby Boomers: most women retiring today are projected to outlive their savings.
As the founder of HVS Financial, I have been proselytizing for years about the financial dangers related to long-term care costs in retirement. Women are especially vulnerable financially because they have longer life expectancies than men and are often left without enough savings after their spouses pass on. Here are some important facts:
- According to a Women and Long-Term Care Fact Sheet published by AARP,
- Over 70% of nursing home residents are women
- 70% of women 75 or older are widowed, divorced, or never married
- 48% of Americans living alone are women compared to 22% of men
- A healthy 58-year-old woman living in Boston will have a life expectancy of 90 years and close to a 50% chance of needing long-term care by age 88.
- Average length of stay in a nursing home for a woman will be over 2 years
- Average annual cost of nursing home care in the Boston area today is $123,000
- Estimated annual cost 30 years from now will be $613,000
The aforementioned statistics are not the total story. Let's say this 58-year-old woman is happily married to her husband of the same age. More than likely, she will live approximately five years longer. Here are some other projections:
- His life expectancy will be approximately 85 years
- Average length of stay in a nursing home for a healthy 58 year old male will be 1.5 years
- Estimated annual cost 25 years from now will be $495,000
- Based on his potential 1.5-year stay, the couple may be responsible for $770,000 in nursing home expenses
- Additionally, beginning at age 80, they will also be responsible for approximately $40,000 in health insurance premiums and other out of pocket healthcare expenses, such as co-pays
- Note that the $40,000 mentioned above is the equivalent of around $22,000 in today's dollars, not much more than the $16,000 cost of medical insurance premiums your current employer is paying for your family plan
According to Medicare, by 2020, between 12 and 14 million people are going to need some form of long-term care. That means roughly 1 in 6 Boomers—or more importantly, one third of all couples—will require some level of LTC—enough to cripple a family's life savings.
A common reaction is to assume that Medicaid is the solution. Think twice before depending on Medicaid, as benefits will likely be cut to help address the country's deficit problems, and for the most part, current Medicaid benefits do not cover facilities with any real amenities. The key is to have assets available to cover the cost of at least a one-year stay.
On a personal note, since I am considerably older than my lovely wife Marea, I should probably keep these statistics and all sharp objects away from her (only kidding). I am sure that she would not look forward to the possibility that keeping me alive in a nursing home might one day put her in the poorhouse. Let's face facts: LTC almost exclusively occurs during the final years of life, when loved ones are hooked up to a myriad of tubes and bags and often cannot perform the most basic daily functions. I am sure that my wife cares about me very much and would do anything for me. But, writing a check for $500,000 a year just to keep me propped on some pillows is difficult for me to swallow. What if it goes on for two years? Three?
Fortunately, financial industry professionals are prepared to address this issue, and the time to act is now. Potential solutions to catastrophic long-term care costs include purchasing LTC insurance, looking into annuity products that offer long-term care riders, carving a portion of savings that can be allocated to LTC costs, and/or purchasing a universal life policy that offers LTC or catastrophic care riders (an additional benefit is related to the favorable tax status built into life policies). Since the average Baby Boomer is looking at an investment period of 20 to 30 years, it is worth talking to an advisor about considering a more aggressive portfolio dedicated to LTC savings. If investors do not require LTC services, the accrued assets can be left to heirs.
Think about it: tackling this problem today could be the ultimate holiday gift for your spouse and children.
Happy Holidays!

From the place where we are right

Deeper Questions
Optional Activity
Pick a subject on which you hold a very strong view, one where you know the "right" thing to do. It could be a global issue (the situation between Palestine and Israel, or inequitable access to a resource such as health care or clean water), a national issue (immigration policy in the U.S., comprehensive sexuality education, or the separation of church and state), or a personal issue (public school searches of student's lockers or vegetarianism). On the front of a sheet of paper, list the arguments you could make to defend your position. On the other side of the paper, list the arguments that could be made for an opposing position. Come up with as many arguments against your position as possible. You will not be asked to share this with the group. Do you see why someone taking the opposing stance could also feel they know the "right" thing to do? What happens when people look to different authorities to learn what is right?
Does being able to look at an issue from both sides weaken a person's resolve? Spend a few minutes journaling around the edges of the sheet of paper about your thoughts after completing the lists.
Use your established closing ritual. Or, extinguish the chalice and share this quote:
Whenever two good people argue over principles, they are both right. — Maria von Ebner-Eschenbach, 19th-century Austrian author

Dion's Friday ETF Winners and Losers
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Welcome to Don Dion's Daily ETF Winners and Losers. Be sure to stop by each day to get a feel of who's winning and who's losing when it comes to ETFs.
Market Vectors Gold Miners (GDX) 3.7%
The markets are closing this volatile week on an up note, but jittery investors still bid up gold. This has helped the precious metals miners. Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) and Global X Silver Miners ETF (SIL) are top winners today.
SPDR Gold Shares (GLD), iShares COMEX Gold Trust (IAU) and iShares Silver Trust (SLV) ended the week on a positive note as well.
United States Oil Fund (USO) 3.3% Although it tumbled during the first part of the week, oil futures-linked USO managed to regain a good portion of its lost ground on Friday. Crude's gains can be attributed to concerns regarding the weather and the start of the Atlantic hurricane season. The fund's jump is impressive considering the downward GDP revision presented by the U.S. Commerce Department today. First Trust S&P REIT ETF (FRI) 2.6% REITs have been shining on Friday compared to other sectors of the real estate industry. Aside from FRI, other REIT focused ETFs are also scoring gains. Included among them are SPDR Dow Jones REIT ETF (RWR), iShares Cohen & Seers Realty Majors Index Fund (ICF), and Vanguard REIT Index ETF (VNQ). Market Vectors Indonesia ETF (IDX) 3.2% Indonesia leads the pack among single-nation international focused ETFs today. IDX's strength can be attributed to its financial sector, which accounts for more than a quarter of the fund's total portfolio. Indonesia's banks soared on optimism over loan growth.Losers
iShares Dow Jones U.S. Home Construction Index Fund (ITB) -0.7% Homebuilders and other subsectors of the real estate industry have suffered staggering drops in recent weeks as the post homebuyer tax credit hangover sets in. Earlier in the week investors learned that new home sales dipped 33% in the previous month. On Friday, ITB took an additional hit after top holding KB Home (KBH) posted a wider- than- expected loss for the fiscal second quarter.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Ask any number of runners if they've ever run a race, and chances are you'll get an affirmative answer. Even the most casual runner is likely to have done a 5K, if not set their sites on some big bucket event like a marathon. Ask a typical recreational cyclist the same question and you'll get a wide eyed response that borders on alarm. "Race?!" "Oh, no." Which I think is one of the shortcomings of our sport.
Competition helps grow a sport. It sparks equipment innovation, fires up participant motivation, and is just plain fun. But unlike running, where you can simply sign a waiver and register to run a race on any given Saturday or Sunday, if you want to race your bike on the road, you have to overcome any number of barriers.
First you need to find a race, which depending upon where you live can be akin to snipe hunting. Then there are licenses and teams and an untold number of rules both spoken and unspoken, but understood by those in the know. For the casual rider, getting into racing can be a bit like trying to gain entry into The Order of Skull & Bones, only more mysterious and intimidating.
To a certain extent, some of this exclusivity is a necessary evil. Cycling is inherently more dangerous than running. If you start weaving like a spring breaker at Mardi Gras during a half marathon, you might annoy or at worst trip up a few of your fellow competitors. Do that going 25 mph handlebar to handlebar in a pack and you run the risk of sending 15 of your fellow riders to the ER for the afternoon.
Enter the Fondo, like the Bicycling Magazine Open (BMO) held before the pro race in Philly this past weekend—cycling's answer to the 10K. A Fondo is essentially a fun ride on steroids. It's short for Gran Fondo, which is loosely translated to Big Ride. It's a hybrid between a charity ride and a competitive race. They've been popular in Europe for decades and are finally gaining ground in the US, to which I say, "It's about time."
Take Sunday's BMO as an example. The event kicked off bright and early at 7 a.m., opening the same fully closed, historic 14.5 mile professional race course to anyone with two wheels and the love of a challenge. Cyclists could ride as little as one lap, or hammer out as many as three. All riders were timed. But whether or not you "raced" was completely your call. For those wanting to test their mettle, there were podium spots available for the top three men and women who completed all three laps. But even if you weren't there for the whole enchilada, you got a sweet taste (which could easily whet your appetite) for the full competitive experience.
After a rousing rendition of the National Anthem, a cheerful swarm of somewhere between 500 and 1,000 riders rolled off the line on the flag-strewn Benjamin Franklin Parkway, churned down Kelly Drive along the shimmering Schuylkill River, and ground their way up the famed 17-percent Manayunk Wall before sweeping back along the river, up through Strawberry Mansion and Lemon Hill, and finally barreling full speed back through the Parkway. And repeat. There were all the trappings of a real race: Police escort. Moto support. Cameras. Inflated banners. Loud, lubricated spectators. But it was all on your own terms. You could throw down, hang back, tack onto a pack, or go it alone.
I'm not sure when I've seen more smiling cyclists. Even friends and co-workers who routinely race, ride, and participate in organized events of every stripe agreed the day held a special appeal. Completely closed roads. Throngs of spectators. Friendly competition on your own terms, no nerves required. I see the future and it looks like a Fondo. Go find one near you. And bring a friend or two. You'll be glad you did.

GamesRadar's Platinum Chalice awards begins this Friday, so to stoke anticipation for the occasion we're revealing one of our five Game of the Year nominees each day this week. Be sure to check out the videos for the previous days' nominees, Portal 2 and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. The Chalices will be posted on Friday afternoon (Pacific time), after which we'll reveal a video of our winner.
While Portal and Zelda are obvious contenders, a slightly less likely candidate, especially for the many gamers that don't play on their PCs, is The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. We had a feeling the second Witcher would be amazing, since we loved the original, but we didn't expect to be so mesmerized by some of the most witty, mature writing we've seen in gaming, combined with possibly the most detailed graphics ever conceived, and a world and story filled with layers and complexities and political intrigue.
Is The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings your favorite game of the year? Are you a PC elitist or hater? Let us know in the comments, and keep an eye out all week for the rest of the Platinum Chalice nominees.

I'm retired and live in a recreational community. Mostly cook for just my husband and myself. Entertain occasionally.
I love seafood although what we get here is very limited. I am very fond of upscale italian food. I like to try something different all the time. With all the choices I don't want to eat the same thing over and over unless it's a very favorite. When I lived in a large city I found French restaurants to be really special.

Interactive Brokers Group Inc. 's ( IBKR ) Electronic Brokerage segment announced a decline in majority of the metrics for July 2012. The segment under evaluation clears and settles trades globally for both individual and institutional clients. Interactive's total customer Daily Average Revenue Trades (DARTs) declined 1% from July 2011 and 2% from June 2012 to 411,000. However, total customer accounts improved 13% from the prior-year month and 1% from the prior month to 201,500 in July. In July, Interactive recorded Cleared Customer DARTs of 383,000, in line with June 2011 and down 2% from June 2012. Further, on an annualized basis, the company reported Cleared Average DART per customer account of 479,000, falling 12% from 546,000 in the comparable month last year and 3% from 493,000 in the previous month. Moreover, Interactive's total options contracts fell 9% from the prior-year month and 2% from the prior month to 20,008 in the month under review. The company's futures contracts totaled 6,982, decreasing 2% from 7,148 in July 2011 and 17% from 8,409 in June 2011. Interactive also reported period-end statistics for customer equity, customer credit balances and customer margin loan balances. For the period ended July 2012, customer equity stood at $29.2 billion, augmenting 12% year over year and 2% sequentially. Additionally, Interactive's Electronic Brokerage segment recorded customer credit balances of $18.7 billion in the reported month, increasing 10% year over year and 2% sequentially. However, the company's customer margin loan balances of $8.6 billion at July 2012-end fell 2% from $8.8 billion at July 2011-end, but inched up 1% from $8.5 billion at the end of June 2012. Interactive continues to retain a liquid balance sheet with a strong capital base. High barriers to entry further strengthen its position. Despite these positives, we remain concerned about the Market Making segment's ability to consistently generate sufficient returns to fund dividend payment.
Also, the company's dependence on IBG LLC and its wide international exposure remain the major causes of concern. Overall, Interactive's better-than-peer positioning, technological excellence, stable balance sheet and robust capital base makes us optimistic. Currently, Interactive retains a Zacks #5 Rank, which translates into a short-term Strong Sell rating. One of its peers, Knight Capital Group Inc. ( KCG ) retains a Zacks #4 Rank (short-term Sell rating).

One of the first things I noticed was that even with the latest 4-in-1 drivers installed, the system was prone to hanging when running 3D applications. Memories of the Apollo Pro 133A started coming back, and I had doubts if VIA could prove its worth to me. Fortunately my fellow reviewer, Cameron "Sov" Johnson, came to the rescue with updated AGP drivers that fixed the hanging with the GeForce3 card. But when a GeForce2 MX was installed, the hanging was still there. Nothing I tried could fix it, so I gave up and conducted all the benchmarks with the GeForce3.
System Configuration
The review system contained the following components:
- 1GHz Intel Pentium III "Coppermine" CPU
- 256MB Apacer CAS-2 PC-2100 DDR SDRAM
- 15.3GB Western Digital Caviar 153BA 7200RPM Hard Drive
- 2 x 6.4GB Quantum Fireball 5400RPM Drives in RAID-0
- 64MB DDR SGRAM Leadtek GeForce3 TD Graphics Card
The following benchmarks were used:
- MadOnion's 3DMark2001
- id Software's Quake III Arena v1.27g (VIA Arena demo)
- DroneZ
- HD Tach v2.60 and v2.61
- SiSoft Sandra 2001te
All benchmarks were run 3 times, and the average obtained. Testing resolution was 1024x768 pixels at 32bit color depth. So without further ado, here are your benchmarks:
- SiSoft Sandra 2001 CPU Benchmark
Despite being marginally slower than the reference 1GHz Pentium III platform, the AX37 Plus does reasonably well here. This indicates AOpen's historical dependency to focus on stability over speed, a decision I certainly commend.
- SiSoft Sandra 2001 Multimedea Benchmark
This benchmark shows the AX37 Plus trailing the reference Pentium III platform by a slight margin, but as this is not indicative of its real-world performance, I'm not too concerned.
- SiSoft Sandra 2001 Memory Benchmark
What can I say but WOW! The AX37 Plus left scorch marks behind in the memory bandwidth test, being the only Pentium III chipset here to hit the magic 500MB/sec mark. You may ask why the performance was more impressive here than in the reference system? CAS-2 memory and 4-way memory interleaving are the key to speed.

I hope to get more life from my Miele 3033 which arrives on Tuesday. We thought we were buying great quality in '00 when we bought the Bosch, but the dryer stopped last summer and the washer stopped several days ago. As the Bosch has already had a new computer/control panel (2 years ago?) and motor brushes/motor (3 years ago?) we do not want to spend any more money on a 9 year old machine. We are hoping that Miele lives up to its reputation. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I don't blame you. I've read on appliance repair forums where Miele's have their fair share of problems. I think all FL washers do. My next purchase when I move is going to be a FL that has been on the market for years like the Frigemore. I rarely see complaints of control board issues with those machines. Usually its the spider problem but even that is suspect to wrong detergent and some owners report theirs being 10 to 12 years old and still going with no repairs. |

I came home to find my cat missing. Simba is an indoor cat. Simba always runs outside and he always comes back within that same hour. Simba is a big cat and loves to eat, he would never go a day, let alone a meal to play outside. Im fearful that something has happened because hes not a people person, if he was to see someone approaching him hed run. I hope more than anything that maybe someone did get a hold of him, because its been raining these past days. He just had his first birthday on March 24 so hes 1 year old. He went missing on April 16, in Ashton court off of Willow lane (McDonough). He is a tan stripped tabby, bigger than your average cat. Hes dealing with some kitty acne so under his chin he may have this black stuff that almost looks like dirt. At night when left alone hes whines, and hes definitely a scratcher. At the moment Im better reachable at email but ill leave my phone number as well.

On Wednesday, March 26, my friend let my dog out to go to the bathroom. My dog ran across the street to Mt. Zion elementary. My friend came in to get his keys and drive over there. There were several cars in the parking lot. When he made it over there the cars were gone and so was Massey. He may have been picked up by one of the cars as he did not have his collar on seeing how he went to the groomer the other day and they forgot to put it back on (they put little bandanas on). Please help me find my baby. My heart is breaking. A reward will be given for return or information related to finding my missing baby.

Please help find my baby!!! Her name is "Ann" or "Annie girl"...she got out of our gate Tuesday night and we have searched everywhere!! We are unable to have children, so she is like our child. She is very sweet and is shy.
Ann was last seen close to the intersection of Hwy 81W & Hwy 3 in Hampton GA, Henry Co. She isn't wearing a collar as she slips out of any collar that we have used, so seeing that she was in our fenced in yard we didn't worry about a collar as we used a harness when we would take her anywhere. She is a mixed breed, we think she has hound dog, (she has the big floppy ears) and who knows what else in her....she is beautiful to us though!! ;-) She is on a special diet as she weighs probably over 100 lbs.. She can look intimidating but she is truly a big sweetheart!! She is brindle colored (Brown) and she is not micro chipped.

According to a Sunnyside Gold report, the company has spent around $25 million in costs associated with closing the mine and related cleanup projects since 1991. That's more than its parent company, Echo Bay, ever saw in profits from the gold taken from the mine.
As part of the consent decree in the court case, Sunnyside removed mine tailings and took on reclamation tasks at several other old mine sites in the area. The result has been some improvement in water quality for tributaries feeding into the Animas, especially Mineral Creek, and consistently better-than-predicted water quality for the Animas below Silverton, with average zinc and acidity levels lower than they were six years ago.
"The whole consent decree was based on a basin-wide approach to water quality," says Sunnyside's Perino, "and I think that's been fairly successful. If you look at the total reduction in metal-loading, there's been quite a bit of success."
"We're moving forward pretty well," agrees Simon of the stakeholders' group. "Throughout the Animas, we're seeing increased fish population. Trout are reproducing on their own in the stream, and that's a good indication that things are improving."
Up on Cement Creek, though, the picture is more confusing, with reams of conflicting data and puzzling spikes in metal-loading. Readings from last March indicate that the amount of zinc in the creek is almost three times higher than it was three years ago. This spring was wetter than usual in the San Juans, and the heavy runoff may be scouring salts from mines that were dry before, but firm conclusions are hard to come by.
State regulators also don't have much current data on how sealing the Sunnyside has affected flows from nearby mines. Last October, a Division of Minerals and Geology official asked Sunnyside for information on that point; the company has not responded. But while the division would like some answers, particularly regarding the mine pool's impact on the "general hydrologic balance" of the area, the inquiry isn't an urgent one. "Even though we want Sunnyside to address the flow issue, at this point we don't see it as having a significant impact on water quality," Humphries says.
Two years ago, Sunnyside sought to have fourteen acres of un-reclaimed land around the American Tunnel reclassified as an "industrial site" and have its reclamation permit transferred to Gold King Mines. Hennis fought both maneuvers, arguing that the proposal would allow Sunnyside to walk away from a blighted area. He also discovered that part of the land in question belonged to others, including the federal Bureau of Land Management, which was interested in restoring its portion to rangeland. Although the state initially failed to notify the BLM of the proposal, the bureau ultimately objected to the change, and it was denied.
The BLM has since taken a greater interest in the future of the site, providing a grant to San Juan County to explore the legal aspects of operating another water-treatment plant on Cement Creek. The Animas stakeholders' group is keenly interested in the project, and the EPA is providing some technical expertise. "We'd like to get a plant back in operation," says Simon, "not only to treat the American Tunnel flow, but other loaders."
Such a plant could cost anywhere from several hundred thousand to several million dollars to build. Hennis doesn't think the public should have to foot the bill. The rationale for Colorado's supposedly tough reclamation laws and bonding requirements, he notes, is to avoid another bailout like Summitville, the 1992 mine disaster that poisoned the Alamosa River and saddled taxpayers with an estimated $150 million in cleanup costs when the mine's owner, Galactic Resources, declared bankruptcy.
"The days of the rape-and-run miners are over," Hennis says. "Especially the Canadian companies like Galactic, that felt they could come to Colorado, mine, and leave the whole mess for others to clean up. I would like to see Sunnyside's corporate parent step forward and take some responsibility. I think they should contribute heavily to building a water-treatment plant and operating it."
It's too early to say what role, if any, his company might have in a future water-treatment operation, Perino responds. "We have done everything we committed to do," he says. "We're waiting to see what the final steps might be."
Stuart Sanderson, president of the Colorado Mining Association, says there's a trend in the industry toward "zero-discharge operations," an effort to avoid long-term water-treatment issues such as those in the Eureka District. His group is seeking "Good Samaritan legislation" that would make it easier for mining companies to voluntarily clean up old abandoned mine sites.
"This is a problem that dates back to the nineteenth century," Sanderson says. "We encourage stewardship that goes beyond what the law requires, but the companies are often reluctant because they don't want to pick up the liability that comes with taking over a site."
Sunnyside is currently reclaiming the settling ponds on the land it traded to Hennis for the Mogul. The property is close to Silverton Mountain, an extreme ski area that's drawing rave reviews as well as increased attention to the old mining district.

IZYUM, Ukraine (AP) - Russia's state RIA-Novosti news agency says two pro-Russian insurgents have been wounded in a skirmish with the Ukrainian military near an airport in eastern Ukraine.
It said Ukrainian troops drove to the airport at Kramatorsk, outside the city of Slovyansk, in an armored personnel carrier Tuesday and started talking to the rebels who control the site. It said a skirmish erupted shortly after.
RIA-Novosti's report didn't say who started shooting or give any further details. The agency also reported the Ukrainian military has moved into Slovyansk itself.
The report could not be independently confirmed immediately.
Slovyansk is one of the cities in eastern Ukraine where pro-Russian protesters have seized government buildings and police stations.

Short, perhaps, of going to France and seeing the society from the other end, this was an effective way for students to appreciate the real-world impact of that organization and its magnificent library.
