Recently got new RAM Memory, BSOD on startup, even in safe-mode
Hello guys and girls,
New poster here. So, as the title says I bought some new RAM Memory today (Kingston HyperX 2x_2GB DDR3-1600) to get some extra speed. My other 2 RAM modules are also HyperX. Should be no biggy I thought. So I inserted my RAM, booted up my PC and it worked. CPU-z recognised my RAM and even a dxDiag showed I had 8GB. Later today I tried booting, and during this process the following message popped up: "Memory has changed!!! Please enter Setup by pressing F1". Pressed F1, MSI-Motherboard BIOS Interface popped up, saw it auto recognised my RAM and saved and quit (No changes were made). So the booting process continues, till it gets to the graphical appearance of the Windows Logo on Windows 7. It stutters, freezes and a flash of the BSOD appears and it reboots. I have tried several things, like setting my RAM speed and voltage to a set amount instead of [AUTO]. I have tried removing the new modules and trying it again with the old ones. I have also tried booting with only the new RAM Modules. Nothing works, not even Safe-Mode. Everything gives me a BSOD so I can't access anything, not even post a screencap of it. I hope someone can help me with this particular problem. My specs are: MSI Z68A-GD65(G3) Motherboard MSI 1GB N560GTX-Ti from nVidia Intel Core i5-2400 3.1Ghz per core 60GB OCZ SSD 1TB Samsung HDD (Old)RAM Modules: D3 4GB (2x 2GB) 1600-999 Blu, Kingston HyperX (New)RAM Modules: D3 4GB (2x 2GB) 1600-999 Blu XMP Both RAM Modules have the K2 KHX Notification added to them. Kind regards, Zubaja |

Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 X64 (Windows 10, 8.1, Linux Mint, Windows XP and others in VM)
When you go into bios, set the ram voltage, frequency and timings that are on the stick. If your ram has an XMP profile you can enable that in bios, but I would still set the timings and voltage manually. If you still can't boot, go into bios and set everything to Optimized defaults. Set your sata controller the way it is now (IDE or AHCI), set the boot order, and ram timings, frequency and voltage, save and exit and see if that helps.
Also, ram in sets are usually tested to work together. It is not uncommon to have problems when you add a 2 kits together, even the same make and frequency. Try at first to use 1 set of ram, either the new ones or the old ones. If you get it to boot and run right for a while, add in the other set and see if they work together. |

It would certainly appear to be a RAM problem unless this BSOD has happened before, yes, no?
Set you RAM manually as essenbe suggests too. Test each RAM stick in each slot, follow this. Some hardware tests to run. You will do this before booting to w7. RAM (memory): This will require memtest on a bootable CD or USB stick. RAM - Test with Memtest86+ |

Thanks Essenbe for the information.
I just managed to get my old set of RAM Modules to work perfectly again. I've written down any changes I've made to the BIOS this time to make sure I can reset everything. I will try and see what happens when I add my new Modules later on this day. Britton30, Assuming that this BSOD has never happened before was correct. It all started yesterday when I added the new RAM modules. Is it still advised to try memtest or not in case some sneaky error comes my way? **EDIT** I've just added the new memory and it comes up with the message that my Memory has changed again. So I go into the BIOS, turn on XMP, reboot, and then it tells me my Overclock Settings failed to be applied. This message happens after about 4-5 quick automatic reboots of my system. This step can not be skipped, so I'm at a loss once more, since I can't even get to my desktop. Atleast my BSOD is fixed. |

Yes rune memtest please, as in the tutorial, it will take several hours, but don't skip anything.

Sister in Law ( talented artist but mad as a box of frogs) used to
Sister in Law ( talented artist but mad as a box of frogs) used to scrounge some of our walnuts merely for the coating round the nuts which she boiled off into a rather odd looking but very effective sort of sepia colour for monochrome watercolour type pictures. Was really nice having a baskets of walnuts from the garden at Christmas, but over time got less and less from it as each year more and more tree-rats stripped it. Had to take it down when the main trunk split - still (6 years later) working through the offcut logs: the wood is really, really hard (hand axe to splt? forget it!) Burns hot and very slow though.Walnuts do seem however to exude something from their leaves which when washed down to the ground by rain makes the soil less welcoming to anything other than baby walnuts. Suppose it is some sort of Darwinian thing.

Folk Wisdom
Indians on the one side, pioneers on the other. My dad's stories of our Native American and European ancestors worked an easy sorcery on my Huck Finn brain when I was a kid. The narrative backdrop was always the wilderness of the virgin South, which I had a stunt-double parcel of right around the corner and down the hill, a modest green paradise overhung with bluffs,engraved with streams and creeks, pocked by pools and ponds, and everywhere harboring fortresslike stands of ancient elms, oaks, and hickories all a-wiggle with grapevines. But we didn't live deep in the sticks or anything; this was just the suburban flank of Memphis, Tennessee, surely the chlorophyll capital of the USA.
So into the woods I went dreaming, whenever I could, on bike or on foot, all year long and in any weather, with friends or alone but always armed with the tools of target= practice, bushwhacking, and whittling. Primitive mechanical engineers, we fashioned tackle and maneuvered stout windfallen timber to bridge any water we couldn't make like Tarzan across. In summer, a lone great blue heron and hosts of catfish, crawdads, and dragonflies kept us company as we swam the pools and fished miles of meander with homemade "baitcasters," lost to the world of couches and cartoons.
It may have been a long-distance hike to the market or school or library from my house, but it was just a hop, skip, and a jump into another realm.

More reviews by browneyessmiles
I love this. I totally agree with a previous reviewer that this makes your nails look like discoballs! Its such great quality and reaches opacity with 1 coat. I use a Revlon base and top coat.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
From the outside, this just looks like a sparkly silver polish. When I put it on, my nails look like mini disco balls. My nails are beautiful! It lasts for a really long time too. This polish is better than some of my OPI products and is half the price. I will definitely llok into buying more of the nail polishes in this line sometime soon!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I can't rave enough about this polish. I got it at my dollar store, where i can usually never find Revlon, and didn't have high hopes because of that but it's perfect! one coat opaque! I also have the one in Gold Coin and they're both the best metallic polishes I've ever used.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was amazed by this color. My mother bought it, as usual, and decided she didn't want it so I got it. I went to paint my nails and figures it was going to be a normal glitter nail polish where it take about 4 coats to look even, with one coat it is amazing! I just now did a half moon design, black as the base and silver dollar, I thought it might falter, but still, one coat and amazing. Would buy again!
This is a great, long lasting formula. You only need one coat of this and it looks amazing! So glittery and shimmery! i love this one!
This is my first silver nail polish and I am loving it. It was so gorgeous in the bottle, I just couldn't resist it. It is a metallic, gun metal gray that is shiny on my nails and makes them pop. I agree with some of the other reviewers that said that one coat is enough, but go for two coats if you really want to amp up the show-stopping silver color. Revlon nail polishes are as good, if not better than OPI, for a fraction of the price.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
If you are looking for a silver nail polish, this is the one to buy!
It only takes 2 coats to get a full colour and it last really well.
This right here in my favorite nail polish in the whole world. I remember when I first bought it I was amazed because it look like the just poured metal into the bottle.
Great color hands down, super shiny. You pretty much only need one coat but I like to put two on to make sure its all even. It doesn't chip easy at all but I like to give it a nice top coat for that extra kick of shine.
Another metallic polish that I purchased to follow the fall trend. I love the colour, but I find this polish lacks durability. Easily chips and peels even with a top coat. Won't repurchase.

« September 2005 Table of Contents
Don't be alarmed if consumers misuse the word "endangered" when purchasing oysters in the coming months, and don't be afraid to correct them. The government is in the early stages of considering a petition to list the Eastern oyster under the Endangered Species Act. The process of listing a species as endangered or threatened is a complex and lengthy one, and undoubtedly consumers will misunderstand it when they read or hear about it in the media. So now is an ideal time to brush up on the law and its effect on the seafood industry. Here are the answers to a few common questions you're bound to encounter:Q. What's the Endangered Species Act?Enacted in 1973, the ESA was designed to protect and revitalize species of animals or plants listed as endangered or threatened and conserve the ecosystems in which they live. If a species is endangered, it's in danger of becoming extinct. If it's threatened, it's at risk of becoming endangered in the near future.The law is administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which manages terrestrial and freshwater species, and the National Marine Fisheries Service, which handles marine species. In fiscal 2004, the FWS committed $137 million and 533 employees, or 6 percent of its staff, to enforcing the ESA, while NMFS dedicated $101 million and 523 employees, or 20 percent of its staff. State agencies also help enforce the ESA.The ESA has been reauthorized seven times and was due for reauthorization again in 1993. Congress hasn't reauthorized the law due to a legislative stalemate but appropriated funds in each subsequent year to keep the program alive.Q. How is a species placed on the ESA list?Listings are based solely on a species' biological status and threats to its existence from such factors as disease, predation, industry and development. Economics are not considered.Anyone can petition the government to place a species on, or remove a species from, the list. In addition, the FWS maintains a list of "candidate" species and can recommend that a species be listed.Once a petition is received, the FWS or NMFS has 90 days to determine whether there's "substantial" evidence to move the petition forward. If there isn't, the petition is dismissed. If there is, a team of federal and state biologists conducts a status review of the species, which is then independently peer reviewed.Within a year of moving the petition forward, the FWS or NMFS concludes whether a listing is warranted. If it is, a proposed rule is published in the Federal Register within 30 days (unless there's a logjam of other species in greater danger of becoming extinct under consideration). Then the public has 60 days to comment. If the FWS or NMFS opts to list a species, a final rule is published and the species is added to the list within 30 days. Otherwise, the listing is rejected.Q. How many seafood species are on the ESA list?Of the 1,264 domestic species on the list as of early 2005, there are 114 species of fish, 70 species of mollusks and 21 species of crustaceans. More than three-quarters are endangered, while the rest are threatened. The bulk of the fish and shellfish on the list are freshwater species.Additionally, there are 562 foreign species on the list, including 14 species of fish and shellfish.Only 34 domestic species have been taken off the list; nine became extinct, 15 were mistakenly listed because erroneous data was used, and 10 recovered. Seven foreign species have been removed due to erroneous data or recovery.Q. Why is the Eastern oyster being considered for a listing?Maryland resident and environmental consultant Wolf-Dieter Busch, who filed the petition to list the Eastern oyster under the ESA in January, says the population in the Chesapeake Bay has been decimated in recent years by overfishing and the diseases MSX and Dermo. Industry members say Busch is trying to block the potential introduction of larger, disease-resistant Asian oysters in the Chesapeake.In May, NMFS determined that there's "substantial" evidence to move the petition forward. The results of the status review are due in October, and NMFS should conclude in January whether a listing is warranted.Q. How does an ESA listing affect a fishery or fish farm?When a species is listed as endangered, it's illegal to "take," or harvest, it. When a species is listed as threatened, it may also be illegal to take.Eastern oyster harvesters and processors fear a listing will bring the harvest to a virtual standstill from Maine to Texas.Unlike vertebrates, invertebrates aren't classified as distinct populations under the ESA. Rather, they're classified as one species or two or more sub-species, says Kim Damon-Randall, a NMFS fisheries biologist in Gloucester, Mass. So it's possible that Atlantic and Gulf Eastern oysters will be classified as two sub-species during the status review. Additionally, U.S. Rep. Bobby Jindal (R-La.) introduced legislation in June to amend the ESA to allow the Eastern oyster to be classified regionally, so the Gulf population can be considered separately from the Chesapeake. The Gulf represents about two-thirds of the total U.S. oyster harvest of 750 million pounds (in shell) a year.In addition to fisheries, aquaculture can also be affected by a listing. For instance, salmon farmers must develop a plan to prevent fish from escaping from pens and mingling with endangered wild Atlantic salmon in eight Maine rivers.A listing of a mammal can also affect a fishery within the mammal's "critical habitat," the geographic area containing the features essential to its survival. For example, Alaska pollock fishing is tightly regulated in endangered Steller sea lion critical habitat to minimize competition between fishermen and sea lions, which eat pollock. And Massachusetts lobstermen must use breakaway buoy lines in endangered northern right whale critical habitat from Jan. 1 to May 15 to prevent the whales from getting tangled in fishing gear.Q. Is there interest in reforming the ESA?Yes. In February, four congressmen launched a bipartisan effort to update the ESA. In May, both the House Resources Water and Power Subcommittee and the Senate Environment and Public Works Fisheries, Wildlife and Water Subcommittee held public hearings to solicit improvements to the law.

A few months back, I posted about consumers' resistance to digital signage, pointing up the issue that oftentimes what marketers see as dazzling is often construed by end user eyeballs as glaring, particularly among a Connected Class to whom (as one commenter eloquently put it, "loud noises mean "panic" and surprising movement means "danger, get away").
The topic riled up a great group of industry folks as well as end users, and the discussion quickly branched off into sub-conversations about user experience, design decisions, industry best practices, and the OOH signage landscape at large. Audience aside, these threads converged exactly where the discussion started: the difficulty of escaping the mediated public perception of digital signage.

Honorary Fellows are individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the aims and purposes of the Association by promoting openness about science in society and engaging and inspiring adults and young people directly with science and technology. Recent winners include Professor Brian Cox, Revd Professor Michael Reiss, Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock, Professor Marcus du Sautoy, Emeritus Professor Christopher Donald Frith and Professor Richard Wiseman.
The Honorary Fellows for each year are announced in September at the British Science Festival. The Fellows for 2013 are;
Professor Uta Frith
Uta splits her time between being Emeritus Professor at University College London and Visiting Professor at the University of Aarhus. Throughout her career she has worked to develop a neuro-cognitive approach to developmental disorders. She uses methods from experimental psychology to investigate a number of high-level cognitive processes to find out whether their failure might result in the core features of autism and dyslexia. Her aim is to discover the underlying cognitive causes of these disorders and to link them on the one hand to behaviour and on the other hand to the brain.
A bigger aim is to make this research relevant to the education of people with developmental disorders and to contribute to a better quality of their everyday life by a better understanding of their problems. Uta has made significant progress in making neuroscience relevant to education, chairing a Working Committee for the Royal Society Series, Brainwaves: Neuroscience, Society and Policy. She is also exploring the advancement of women in science, and wants women to share ideas that are interesting and fun. Her research has had a significant impact on the fields of neuroscience, psychology and education.
Roland Jackson
Roland Jackson held the post of Chief Executive of the British Science Association from 2002 until 2013.
He was educated at Oxford University, obtaining a degree in biochemistry in 1976, a doctorate in molecular immunology, and a postgraduate certificate in education. He taught science in secondary schools for 9 years, ultimately as Head of Science at Backwell School, Bristol. During this period and subsequently he contributed to several national curriculum development programmes in science education, including SATIS (Science and Technology in Society), Nuffield Coordinated Science and Salters' Advanced Chemistry.
He moved on to a position as Education Adviser for the international chemical company ICI, before joining the Science Museum in London in 1993 initially as Head of Education, before being appointed acting Head of Museum from 2001-2002.
He is a member of a number of advisory bodies in the public engagement field, and was appointed to chair the 'Science for All' Group set up following the previous Government's consultation on Science and Society. Other appointments include: Education and Public Outreach Advisory Panel (Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council); Science in Society Panel (Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council); Steering Group of the Sciencewise Expert Resource Centre for Public Engagement.
Dr Mark Lythgoe
Dr Lythgoe has made a significant contribution to promoting science in society through: his early career "science and art" collaborations, and promoting science in the wider community in radio and television. In 2004, Dr Lythgoe became the first science advisor to the National Theatre and he was the first scientist to exhibit at the Hayward Gallery.
His public engagement work has been informed by his concurrent Directorship of an internationally acclaimed research team at the UCL Centre of Advanced Biomedical Imaging.
In 2003 Dr Lythgoe received the Dorothy Hodgkin Award from the British Science Association for his science and art film "Mapping Perception" in recognition of his achievement in promoting the discussion of important developments in science.
Clare Matterson
Clare Matterson has responsibility for medical humanities, public engagement, media and communications, Wellcome Library and Wellcome Collection. She joined the Trust in 1999 as Head of Policy, and produced the Trust's first Strategic Plan. Clare previously worked as a Management Consultant with PricewaterhouseCoopers. She was a Senior Policy Adviser to the 1999 National Committee of Enquiry into Higher Education and is a member of the Science Museum Advisory Committee, the Kohn Award Committee for Science Communication, and the Government's High Level Strategy Committee for Science Education. She is also a Trustee for Enthuse - an initiative for science teachers - and a member of the BBC Children in Need Funding Committee.
Professor Sir Paul Nurse
Paul Nurse is President-elect of the British Science Association for 2014-2015.
He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 2001 and the Royal Society Copley Medal in 2005. Paul Nurse is a geneticist, focusing on what controls the division and shape of cells. He was Professor of Microbiology at the University of Oxford, CEO of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund and Cancer Research UK and President of Rockefeller University New York. He is currently Director and Chief Executive of the UK Centre for Medical Research and Innovation (UKCMRI).
He is currently the President of the Royal Society; he took up the post to start his five year term on 1 December 2010, and previously chaired the Royal Society's Science and Society Programme.
Dr Kenneth Skeldon MBE
Ken has combined a prestigious research career with a formidable record in science and public engagement. Ken has engaged with hundreds of thousands of people live and many more through broadcast media appearances. In his role at the University of Aberdeen, Ken championed a region-wide science engagement strategy and secured one of eight RCUK Catalyst Awards for Public Engagement to the University of Aberdeen, creating a centre of excellence in this arena.
Ken has a long track record with the Association, extending back some 20 years. He co-founded the West of Scotland SATRO helping to embed CREST Awards in the schools outreach activities being undertaken at Glasgow University at that time. He coordinated and delivered activity at the first SET7 and National Science Week initiatives, aided by grants from COPUS. These catalytic activities included first performances of shows such as Arcs & Sparks that he has since presented to more than 100,000 people. As well as involvement at past meetings of the then BA, Ken Chaired the Glasgow Branch of the British Science Association for 4 years, during which time he formed the West Scotland Branch brokering new partnerships for science outreach across the region.
Most notable perhaps is his enthusiasm for stimulating others in quality 2-way engagement – particularly evident in his role as head of public engagement with research at the University of Aberdeen, where hundreds of researchers annually are empowered to engage with communities and share their work. It is for this expansive portfolio that Ken was awarded an MBE in the 2012 Queen's Birthday Honours.

Actually there is a lot of ways to improve site's SEO, but i think one of the best way is using forum marketing or even blog commenting to improve your sites publicity and its SEO. Cause it will help you to gain traffic on your site as well. But its also part of Marketing Strategy as well at the same time.

Target on creating related links within the text. Instead of having "click here" links, try creating out the name of the destination. "Click here" has no search engine worth above the linked URL, whereas "Mich Tech Business System" is rich with keywords and will increase your search engine rankings as well as the ranking of the page you are linking to.

THE Hamilton Raiders secured a late victory on Sunday to defeat the Merri Stingrays 5-4 in their first home game of the season.
Coming off the back of a 10-2 win at Colac a week earlier, the Raiders went into the match confident they could reduce the one point deficit between themselves and the third placed Stingrays.
Opening the scoring early, Raiders captain Malcolm Grimmer nodded in a looping header from the edge of the area when Anthony Hilsdon sent in a long ball from deep inside his own half.
Unable to hold onto the lead, the Raiders conceded shortly after when midfielder Pete Hodkinson brought down the opposition inside the area, conceding a penalty and receiving a yellow card in the process.
The Stingrays stepped up and hit a low shot into the bottom left corner to make the score 1-1.

WISSOTA Racing Divisions
WISSOTA Late Models are full bodied race cars and the top of the line as far as speed and technology. The rules package allows for a very sleek body design and wide Hoosier racing tires. Under the hood, most WISSOTA Late Model drivers have roughly 360 cubic inch engines with 500 or more horsepower; those who choose to can also run an engine with up to 410 cubic inches along with a carburetor restrictor plate. The Late Models have generous spoilers coming off the rear deck of the car and you'll often see them coming off the turns with their left front tire raised in the air. The chassis are highly tuneable and very sensitive to adjustments. In the WISSOTA region, virtually all Late Model racers burn methanol rather than gasoline. In many regions of the country, Dirt Late Models are the premier division.
WISSOTA Modifieds are sophisticated, high powered, open-wheeled race cars. As the name implies, they are radically "modified" from their stock status. The easiest way to identify a WISSOTA Modified is the lack of front fenders along with a spoiler on the rear of the car. You might also see the left front in the air, similar to the Late Models explained above. WISSOTA's Modified drivers may choose to run a 360 "Spec" engine that is not subject to a competitor's claim or a larger engine, up to 406 cubic inches, that is subject to certain claim procedures after each feature race. The chassis and suspension is very advanced and highly tuneable to meet the needs of the driver's style or track condition, and the vast majority of Modified racers in WISSOTA choose methanol rather than gasoline for a fuel. Nationwide, Modifieds like those in WISSOTA are probably the most populous of all dirt track racing divisions. WISSOTA Modifieds run a Hoosier racing tire called the E-Mod.
WISSOTA Super Stocks appear, on the surface, similar to Late Models. The casual fan can tell the difference quickly by noticing the tires are much thinner, and Super Stocks do not have a spoiler on the rear deck of the car. Engine rules mandate a maximum of 360 cubic inches in the Super Stock division, and competitors in the class are limited to a 2 barrel carburetor. There are chassis limitations placed on competitors in the Super Stock division, so the cars are not as tuneable or exotic as those in the Late Model and Modified divisions. The division is known for parity and the competitors provide very entertaining competition for fans at many WISSOTA tracks. Super Stocks also run on the Hoosier E-Mod tire in the WISSOTA region.
The WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds are a "limited" version of the Modifieds described above. The class was originally conceived and begun by a group of tracks in central and western Minnesota but the population of Midwest Modifieds has exploded since it became a WISSOTA sanctioned division. The Midwest Modified division has a restricted package of engine and suspension rules, and the body lines are a little more conservative than most of the full Modifieds in competition. It is intended to be a more affordable way for racers to get a taste for open wheeled racing and its continued growth at tracks in the region has been impressive. The Hoosier E-Mod is also mandated for competitors in the Midwest Modified division.
WISSOTA Street Stocks are the most "stock appearing" race cars racing under the WISSOTA banner. They feature a steel, stock appearing body most often Chevrolet Monte Carlo or Grand Prix styles from the late '70s and early 80s, when "metric" framed cars were predominant. Under the hood you'll most often find an engine anywhere from 307 to 350 cubic inches with limited rules that help to keep horsepower and costs contained. WISSOTA Street Stocks run on Hoosier E-Mod racing tires and the class is considered an entry level division, although many of the drivers in the class are very experienced, accomplished and talented.
WISSOTA's only four cylinder division, the Mod Fours, entertain race fans with fast-paced action and a frenzied "buzzing" sound on ovals in various parts of the WISSOTA racing region. If you think of four cylinder engines as gas savers for running around town, maybe you should think again, because the Mod Four drivers pack some big punch into their limited cubic inches. The cars look like a "little brother" to the V-8 powered WISSOTA Modifieds and Midwest Modifieds but the guys behind the wheels of the short wheel-base racers don't play second string to anyone when they hit the track. The Mod Four chassis features a manufactured frame with primarily stock suspension components and the division has its own smaller sized Hoosier racing tires. The Mod Four division is considered a great learning ground for drivers who wish to move to another open-wheeled divisions.

iPhone accounted for half of Verizon's smartphone sales in Q1 2012
Next week we get to hear how Apple did in the quarter ending March 31, 2012. Today, Verizon announced its earnings for the first quarter of 2012, and the news is good for both Apple and Verizon.
Verizon announced that it activated 3.2 million iPhones during the quarter, over half of the total 6.3 million smartphone sales for the company in the traditionally slow January to March timeframe. That's less than the 4.3 million iPhones sold in the previous quarter, which encompassed both the launch of the iPhone 4S and the brisk sales usually seen during the holidays.
Wall Street analysts are expecting Apple's iPhone sales to be down for the first calendar quarter of 2012, and it appears that the Verizon news supports that analysis. However, the iPhone 4S became available in many more countries around the world in the first calendar quarter. China Unicom's launch of the device in January, followed by China Telecom in the early part of March, should help Apple's numbers.
In other news, Verizon noted that users of its 4G LTE network (including those with the new third-generation iPad) now make up 9.1 percent of the company's wireless user base.

Muslims Debate

The Arab World's Coming Economic Crash, and Its Political Consequences
Pay close attention to
this article
by the analytical artist who calls himself "Spengler." He has been arguing--and I've been agreeing with him--since February that the Arabic-speaking non-oil-producing countries are going to crash economically.
Anyone should be able to see this and factor it into policy. Egypt especially is in a no-hope situation. Food prices--a major factor in the upheaval there--will continue to rise. No jobs will be created; no income generated; no housing built. And so Egypt will face a huge crisis. What might happen? An Islamist revolution? A little foreign war to distract attention and focus passions on hating Israel and America?
I wouldn't mind it so much if the ruling and intellectual elites in Europe and North America were just asleep. The problem is that they seem to be in a coma. Even loud alarm clocks don't wake them.
But as one of my readers joked:
Collapsing economies under crushing debt and huge bufget deficits? Obama was right! The Arab Spring is making the Middle East more like America and Europe.

Amidst STEM Education Hype, NoRedInk Is On A Mission To Fix America's Grammar Problem
With the November elections right around the corner, education reform is a hot topic these days, thanks to a flood of reports indicating that the U.S. has fallen behind its peers on a number of educational fronts — from enrollment and high school graduation rates to achievement and teacher salaries. Diminishing interest (and performance) in STEM education, in particular, has prompted a billion-dollar movement to reform and improve science and tech programs in the U.S.
With STEM education reform now being touted as the key to America's economic future, it's easy to forget the other side. One recent national study, for example, found that only "one quarter of eighth and 12th graders are proficient in writing." On top of that, College Board reported that reading and writing scores on the SAT hit record lows in the U.S. last year.
It's this not-so-pretty picture of humanities education in the U.S. that led Jeff Scheur, a high school English teacher in Chicago, to create NoRedInk — an adaptive learning tool that aims to help students (and you) improve their writing and grammar skills. To help get students engaged, the startup works to personalize the learning process by generating custom curricula for students based on their interests, adapting feedback, tutorials and coaching to their particular abilities and allowing them to view problem areas in color-coded heat maps....

If you further take into account the facts I have not yet mentioned, namely that with a static number of women, we have two million men too few on account of those who fell in the war [of 1914-18], then you can well imagine how this imbalance of two million homosexuals and two million war dead, or in other words a lack of about four million men capable of having sex, has upset the sexual balance sheet of Germany, and will result in a catastrophe.
I would like to develop a couple of ideas for you on the ques-tion of homosexuality. There are those homosexuals who take the view: what I do is my business, a purely private matter. However, all things which take place in the sexual sphere are not the private affair of the individual, but signify the life and death of the nation, signify world power or 'swissification.' The people which has many children has the candidature for world power and world domina-tion. A people of good race which has too few children has a one-way ticket to the grave, for insignificance in fifty or a hundred years, for burial in two hundred and fifty years….
Therefore we must be absolutely clear that if we continue to have this burden in Germany, without being able to fight it, then that is the end of Germany, and the end of the Germanic world….

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is London!
Facts about London
- Breed: Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
London's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
London # 566 is a 8-week-old very high energy, sweet Lab/Shepherd mix. He is working on crate training and almost there! He likes other dogs, cats and children. He will be available for adoption Sept. 14. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an adoption form, downloadable from our website: http://www.lastchanceanimalrescue.org/adoptus.html and return it per instructions. Email email@example.com with questions.
Other Pets at Last Chance Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
London, a Waldorf Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) for sale in Waldorf, or seeking a Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) puppy from a breeder in Waldorf.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Waldorf already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Waldorf breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Labrador Retriever/Shepherd (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Waldorf paves the way for another one to be saved.

bstephens2 Posts: 2I had a 2002 CX that I traded for a 2005 last December. We enjoyed the 02 much more than we have the 05. However, the 02 models have had a lot of problems. Consumers Report has the 02 on its' 'don't buy' list. Suggest you buy a copy of the April issue of Consumer Reports and read the comments there.
ttop72 Posts: 4Susan: I just purchased a 2006 Rendezvous CX. The color is Cashmere which I wanted, However the ONLY Interior color issued with this color is also very light Tan. Seats will be VERY EASY to get dirty. I also wanted to install seat covers and I had to go to the Buick dealer and have the headrest removed. The Tech looked the headrest up on his computer and removing the headrest required (2) two special tools which they had, so they remove them for free. Good luck

brentb Posts: 8I just sold my 2002 Rendezvous CXL with 103k miles, and thought I'd share my ownership costs. This includes everything including purchase price, trade in price, insurance, repairs, and gas.
Total cost to me averaged $0.42 per mile. This consists of
$0.25 per mile for purchase price minus trade in value ($7700... not worth much, is it?)
Gas cost averaged 10.8 cents per mile @18.3 mpg
Insurance was 2.6 cents per mile and repairs were 4 cents per mile.
I bought the extended warranty for $1795, and it saved me $1000. Major repairs included left front wheel bearing/hub, a/c condenser, air bag control module, BCM twice, O2 sensor, mass air flow sensor, transmission pressure control unit, and fuel tank sending unit
My impressions of the vehicle: A lot of bang for the buck, feature wise. Very comfortable for tall people, not really a replacement for a minivan if you're hauling 4 adults, a great center console, poor heating/a/c to the back seat..may as well not have had rear vents at all, loved the backup sensors and big mirrors, I thought the vehicle seemed a bit noisy in its later years.
Hope someone finds this useful! -
stever Viva Las CrucesPosts: 42,435Thanks Brent! I love posts like these.
Funny, Edmunds' True Cost to Own tool says the average cost per mile for a 2002 Rendezvous CXL is .42 a mile too, for my zip code anyway.
Did you plan it that way?

gail04 Posts: 51Hi,
Can anyone tell me if they have had a noise under their hood like a soft grinding noise from 0-30MPH? I have been to 2 dealers, they hear it, but haven't a clue. Finally, one got some report from GM that mentioned Camshaft issues, but rept. stated "Not an issue, won't affect performance or Safety." This car has got to go and I'm working on selling/trading it as it's been a year of much unhappiness as my posts indicate. Putting that aside, I'm wondering if anyone has heard of this? I can't drive the car in traffic w/o radio on, as the noise is more like a tea kettle on high boil sound. Air throttle came up on computer at dealers, so they replaced it, and guess what??? It wasn't that, so now they tell me they don't know, and to "ignore" it until it gets unbearable. It is,and they still don't know. Thank you in advance, gail :lemon: -

jb7227 Posts: 86Not true about end of Rendezvous production. The model will be out for one more year (2007) - I believe that the new Buick Enclave will replace the RDV for the 2008 model year. I am picking up my new CXL (FWD) tomorrow - cant wait. Got it in Cappucino Frost w/tan leather, navigation, 3.6L engine.
pipedreamin Posts: 1Finally got my 2004 repaired today. We had a grinding noise in the steering column and "rub" from the right front of this junk pile since last year. When we took it in for service they found nothing wrong. It continued to get worse, and developed a rear end hop when driving over a rough patch at highway speeds. Today, they replaced the rack and pinion and the left front wheel hub. Fortunately, all under warranty, 31,515 miles. It has intermittent electrical glitches, nothing that can be reproduced when in the shop or shows up in the diagnostics. Lease ends in Sept and can't wait to get rid of it.
gail04 Posts: 51Hi...I wish my 04 was a leased vehicle! I'd have a better chance turning it in than selling it! Just recovered from yet another leak due to sunroof tubes!! 3rd leak since Oct! GM pays, but that means nothing to me at this point-given days missed from work, rental car, delays and totally owning untrustworthy vehicle! We had the floods in NE, & the car has this issue. A whistle-tea kettle noise (incase others hear this) was finally resolved after months of 2 diff. dealers and threats! Air throttle valve was the first thing they thought to replace. It did resolve. This time, I told them I was leaving the car there & they could do whatever with it, given it was in for the leak in roof! They called GM, adivsed they replaced air throttle valve & was told it was a fuel regulator! This, was AFTER they tried to convince me I had Exceptional hearing, & to just LIVE with the noise, from 0-30MPH...Just a note to beware! This is an 04 w/now 10K miles. I can't stand to look at it, yet to trade, I will loose money. To sell, I'd have to be totally honest with buyer on the roof issue, as it's bound to come back again. Maybe you can turn it in ahead of time given it's not only a lease, but a LEMON?? :lemon:
roadkill57 Posts: 1Now that my 2002 RDV is in the shop, today, and needing over $1600 in repairs for a leaky head gasket (yep, overheated and such), where do I tell my friendy Woody Buick service man to stick that bill? I thought I was going in for a new t-stat, flush and fill for about $200 bucks, wasn't expecting this. Please advise, thanks. Roadkill57
ragtop262 Posts: 58Just thought I'd share my experiences. In late 2003 I bought a very low mile used '03 AWD Rendezvous. I kept it until 72,000 miles. The problems I had included replacing the steering rack & pinion as well as the turn signal module under warantee. Out of warantee, I had a problem with a corroded wiring harness that apparently shorted out a couple sensors. Took two trips to fix, and a total of about $400. Maintenance included oil changes, a rear brake job, and new tires. I averaged 21.5 MPG in mosty highway driving, and had a total cost of ownership of 0.35/mile. I changed oil every 4000 miles, it never burned a drop and still looked clean when I drained the old stuff out. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with that vehicle.
Last October I traded the '03 in for a very low mile used '05 AWD model. I now have close to 30,000 miles on this one and it hasn't been back for any repairs. Fuel milage is a little less, just over 20 MPG (my guess is that is due to the wider 17" tires on the '05). I'm using synthetic oil in this one, and changing it at 8000 miles, unless the oil change light comes on sooner (the oil life monitor usually goes about 10,000 miles in summer and 8000 miles in winter before it lights up - based on my driving conditions). Once again, I am very pleased with my second Rendezvous.
I am tall, so I need a lot of head room and leg room. And due to back/hip problems, I need to have a wide seat that has a high, upright driving position and good back support. There is simply no other vehicle out there that has the combination of features I need with the possible exception of a few of the full size SUV's. But I can't afford the gas or the monthly payments on those.
If you like the features of the Rendezvous, don't pay attention to the magazine critics who drive the vehicle for a day or two before telling you "everything there is to know about it". Listen to the people who have lived with the vehicle for many months and many thousands of miles.
I would however, make a few recommendations:
1. Stay away from the '02 models due to the sheer number of complaints.
2. Buy an extended warantee.
3. If you drive in the mountains regularly, look for one with the 3.6L engine. -
intrepidcub Posts: 60Ok guys and prolly some Gals you guys have me scared as heck LOL I jsut bought a 02 CX with 48K on it. After my intrepid was a victim of the 2.7 sludge problem and now i read all these horror stories and have me nervous once again. are they really that bad?? I got the service record from buick on this car and its only been in the shop for some rear hatch release recall and its predelivery deal. what should i be worried bout i plan on switching to synthetic fluids at 50K and then hope the car last a while it will sit for 2 weeks at a time so not drivin much. i am sure that people concentrate on the negatives and not the positives but can someone giv eme some more insite thanks
ray80 Posts: 1,407I have the Pontiac version, but they share some of the same troubles. First thing if it has any kind of warranty I would wonder about the lower intake manifold gaskets if they were never changed. Feel free to send me a e-mail and I can send you a couple pics (or maybe I have it online somewhere and can send a link) that show what you may be able to see fom the outside to indicate leak. AC condenser may be a problem as well as BCM issues and wheel bearings. I think those are the most common items.

David Letterman, we haven't forgotten about you and your staff member-diddling ways! Nell Scovell, the second female ever hired to write for "Late Night with David Letterman" recently penned a piece for Vanity Fair's website alleging that sex between high-level male and lower-level female staffers led to a "hostile" work environment:
"Without naming names or digging up decades-old dirt, let's address the pertinent questions. Did Dave hit on me? No. Did he pay me enough extra attention that it was noted by another writer? Yes. Was I aware of rumors that Dave was having sexual relationships with female staffers? Yes. Was I aware that other high-level male employees were having sexual relationships with female staffers? Yes. Did these female staffers have access to information and wield power disproportionate to their job titles? Yes. Did that create a hostile work environment? Yes. Did I believe these female staffers were benefiting professionally from their personal relationships? Yes. Did that make me feel demeaned? Completely. Did I say anything at the time? Sadly, no. Here's what I did: I walked away from my dream job.

Category:Codec Engine
Codec Engine, and related software, can be downloaded here: http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/index.html
Codec Engine (CE) is a framework that enables applications to easily instantiate and work with XDM codecs and algorithms using a common API. The API is the same for all of the following situations:
- Algorithms may run locally (on the same processor as the CE app) or remotely (on a different processor than the CE app).
- The system may be a heterogeneous multicore (e.g. OMAP3, DM644x), single core DSP (e.g. DM6437, DM648), single core GPP (e.g. DM365, x86), or homogenous multicore (e.g. C6472, C6474).
Application code (or middleware it uses) calls the Codec Engine APIs. Within the Codec Engine, the VISA APIs can be used to access the actual codecs, which may be local (run on the same processor as the application) or remote (run on a different processor from the application processor). The VISA APIs closely reflect the XDM APIs.
Internally, if the codec/algorithm is running on a remote processor, the VISA APIs use stubs and skeletons to perform a remote procedure call (RPC) to interact with the algorithm. To send information across processor boundaries, DSP/BIOS LINK can be used for inter-processor communication (IPC).
In order for an algorithm to be "executable" by the Codec Engine, it needs to implement the interfaces defined by the XDM algorithm standard, which is in turn based on the XDAIS Algorithm Standard.
This MFP presentation provides an introduction to the Multimedia Framework Products (MFP) stack.

Was wondering what you all think the future is for the Wonders of Life pavilion at Epcot? It's been over 3 years since it pretty much closed. Any ideas on the
future of it?
I don't see them operating it seasonally for much longer, nor opening it regularly in its current state - probably demolishing it is most likely. I just hope they'd put something that's pertaining to science/the future and not a thrill ride like they've been opening lately (Test Track, Soarin', Mission: Space, etc).

A trial date has been set in a lawsuit against the county, sheriff and a doctor alleging that a former Yellowstone County jail inmate's cancer went undiagnosed for almost a year — leading to a ruptured lump in his throat followed by chemotherapy and radiation treatment for advanced cancer.
In September 2009, officers arrested the plaintiff in the case, 50-year-old Fred Everett Miller, in Missouri on a warrant for an alleged theft. He was returned to Billings and booked into the Yellowstone County Detention Facility.
While in the jail over the next 11 months, Miller complained at least 17 times about a lump in his throat, severe pain or other medical problems with his mouth and throat without ever being properly diagnosed or treated, according the lawsuit, filed by attorney Alex Rate, of Livingston.
District Judge Michael Moses recently scheduled the lawsuit for trial in October 2015.
Miller wasn't diagnosed with cancer until September 2010 — after he had been transferred to a detention facility in Missoula, the lawsuit alleges.
The complaint states Miller lost about 100 pounds while undergoing radiation and chemotherapy. Rate said last week that Miller, who is on probation in Yellowstone County, is unable to eat solid food and has a permanent feeding tube.
According to medical records filed in the case, Miller smoked a pack and a half of cigarettes a day for 25 years.
The lawsuit is against a number of parties, including Yellowstone County, the Yellowstone County Detention Facility and Sheriff Mike Linder. The lawsuit also makes claims against George F. Sheckleton, the doctor who contracted with the jail while Miller was an inmate there, and a company associated with Sheckleton, Endurance Inc., along with other unnamed parties.
Yellowstone County Sheriff Mike Linder declined to comment and referred questions to the Yellowstone County Attorney's Office. The county's chief civil litigator, Kevin Gillen, said his office has a policy of not commenting about ongoing civil cases.
Sheckleton, who said he is semi-retired and works from Bozeman, also declined to comment.
Jail doctor Sheckleton
In December 2011, the county removed Sheckleton from his position as jail doctor and — over his public objections — contracted RiverStone Health to provide medical services at the detention facility.
Sheckleton outlined his disapproval in a December 2010 letter to Gillen, the county's chief civil litigator. Sheckleton claimed that RiverStone's services would not be cost-effective.
He had been the jail's doctor since the 1980s. He had been contracted as the jail's doctor at $200 a day and was on on-call 24/7, but spent less than an hour a day at the jail, according to a 2011 Gazette report.
In 1974, Sheckleton was the founding director of the local health department, which is now RiverStone Health. He left the department in 1995, he said in his letter to Gillen.
'Hole in his throat'
The lawsuit claims Miller — who is a registered violent offender for a 2004 assault with a weapon — was the victim of negligence, medical malpractice, cruel and unusual punishment, and that his "right to individual dignity" was violated.
After one complaint to jail staff, he was told to drink "plenty of water," and after another he was given salt water to gargle, the lawsuit states. In May 2010, he complained specifically that he thought he had cancer.
Twice on July 11, 2010, he complained that a lump in his throat had burst and his mouth was full of blood. Medical staff prescribed ibuprofen and salt water rinses, the lawsuit alleges.
Later that month, a judge sentenced Miller for theft. He was transferred to a Missoula detention facility in August 2010.
An unnamed Missoula jail staff member commented on Miller's case in a Sept. 10, 2010, message quoted in the lawsuit, saying, "You'll love this challenge ... He tells me he had been complaining for 4 months about a 'hole in his throat.' He states no treatment until the week before coming here when he was given 10 days of Penicillin.
"So our nurses do his (evaluation) — and reported something not right in his throat," the quoted message continues. "Anyhow, they are right. He has a crater that was possibly a ruptured peritonsillar abscess on the left side of his throat — he recalls something popping and bleeding at the beginning of his problems. He is also complaining of pain and swelling in the right jaw."
It's unclear who the message was sent to.
In the following weeks, 17 of Miller's teeth were extracted and he was diagnosed with cancer, the lawsuit states. He was ultimately put on probation and transferred back to Billings for treatment.
Rate, Miller's attorney, said his client is seeking the statutory maximum of $1.5 million in damages that can be claimed against the county.
Gillen released Monday the county's policy on medical care for inmates that would have been in effect while Miller was at the county jail.
The 11-page policy states, among other things, that all inmates are "entitled to health care comparable to that available to the citizens in the surrounding community."
The county's policy on healthcare for inmates has since been replaced by RiverStone Health, which now oversees medical services at the jail, Gillen said.

Mumbai blasts raise terrorism concerns, but not calls for political change
"It's not a failure of intelligence, it's a failure of policy," said L.K. Advani, senior leader of the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). "The last attack [in 2008] on Mumbai is proved to have been engineered by the ISI," he said, referring to Pakistan's premier spy agency, which he argues should be "declared as a terrorist organization."
Talks still on
Instead, the current government agreed to resume dialogue with Pakistan in February after freezing talks for more than two years in response to the 2008 attacks.
Rather than wade into Pakistan policy, the ruling Congress Party's rising star Rahul Gandhi addressed concerns expressed by ordinary Mumbaikars that the government hasn't proven capable of stopping terror attacks.
"You will not have heard of all the attacks that have been stopped. It is something that we will fight … but it is very, very difficult to stop every single terrorist attack," said Mr. Gandhi.
Investigators are currently looking through hours of surveillance video from the three blast sites to look for clues. However, the rainy weather has not helped. Umbrellas blocked some of the view in the videos and rains washed away evidence from the sites.
The bombs appeared to be improvised explosive devices made with ammonium nitrate. The Ministry of Home Affairs described them as having "some
level of sophistication." The perpetrators placed one bomb in Dadar on top of a bus shelter, another at the Opera House under some garbage, and the third at Zaveri Bazaar under an umbrella. The death toll stands at 17.

I am trying to identify my climbing rose. It was here when I moved in three years ago--I cut down a volunteer tree and realized the climber was there. The flowers are not a deep red but more of a pinkish red. In the past year it has grown about three feet (it is about 5' now) and has developed multiple canes. It does not seem to have a fragrance and it blooms once from June to July. I know the photo isn't super clear but it is the only one I have. Thank you for any information! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Two good hardy red climbers that it could be are Don Juan and Quadra. |

Is Stranahan's the punk rock of whiskey? Ask the bartender...
Growing up in New Jersey, I was a punk-rock kid. I started with Iggy and the Stooges, the Ramones and the Clash, and moved on to Bad Brains, Fear, the Misfits, early Bad Religion, then into NY hardcore, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, etc.
As the '80s progressed, so did my punk-rock fervor. I read grassroots fanzines like Maximum Rock and Roll and went to hundreds of shows. The bands were on our side: They were representative of how we felt and who we were. Their music was raw, unrefined and had meaning; we made a connection. But as soon as one of our favorite bands made it to the big time -- got mainstream radio play or signed to a record contract -- we would refer to the musicians as "sellouts" or "poseurs." And we'd always talk about them in the past tense, as in "back when they were hard."
I don't want to talk about Stranahan's in the past tense.
Eventually, I exchanged my mohawk and combat boots for a cocktail shaker and spoons. Spirits and cocktails became my passion.
I moved to Colorado in July 2000, and soon after met a bartender/country-music DJ/ whiskey freak named Jake Norris one night at Swanky's. He was trying to convince me not to punch his friend, who was being an ass to my girlfriend. We settled on peace and drank some whiskey together.
A couple of years later, Jake told me he was starting a whiskey brand with a volunteer firefighter named Jess Graber and Aspen entrepreneur George Stranahan, whom Jess had met while fighting a fire at his barn. He wanted to know if I wanted to buy a small barrel from their first run for $250 -- the barrel sales were helping with their startup costs, and I could own a piece of history. Unfortunately, I didn't have the money at the time. But a couple of years later, the first barrels of Stranahan's were bottled.
To me, Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey was the straight (straight whiskey)-up punk rock of spirits. It was completely new (stylistically new to the United States with U.K. roots, much like punk rock), unique, local and made by guys who really gave a fuck. It was raw and beautiful, hand-labeled with notes like "listening to the Dwarves" on the bottle. They didn't have a lot of money, but they had a huge groundswell of support among Colorado bartenders. In true DIY/punk-rock fashion, they held volunteer bottlings at the original distillery on Blake Sreet. At these bottlings, local restaurant-industry people would bottle, label and package Stranahan's. Instead of whistling while we worked, we all drank the runoff from the bottler. Jake would buy food, we'd listen to good music, and a great time would be had by all. As a bonus, everyone left with a bottle of Stranahan's, and they could always say that they'd bottled Batch # X.

This is a truly international café with a great atmosphere and marvellous muffins. It has many cutural events, including art classes and German/English language exchange. Very friendly and well worth a visit.
Been here twice and really like the place. Nice to just sit down and relax in this place with friends. Oh and btw, the wifi works perfect and is fast!
Main reason I came here was to find somewhere comfortable to sit and use the wifi... The flat white was really tasty (boy can they do a great microform!) ... The vegetarian stuffed peppers tasted great... Even though only filled with rice and lentils, the spices with the yoghurt dressing and hummus blended into something very yummy.

Popped in for a smoothie and cake. Nice enough and friendly enough staff but don't understand the amazing reviews some have left. Opposite an unattractive building on a busy road And inside the decor was nothing special and a bit mismatched. Serves a purpose but the 5th best place to eat in the whole of Berlin? No way!
This cafe somehow has a great reputation but it is undeserving. It is a complete tourist trap with average coffee, a very limited menu and terrible atmosphere. Avoid like the plague!!!
