Review for: Florida Honeybells
from: The Orange Shop
Florida Honeybells
By: Julie Hebert (Jan 24, 2013)
Really looked forward to this delivery and were disappointed upon arrival. 3 had mold. 1 was half sqwished.
Comments on this Review:
Pete & Cindy Spyke says: (Jan 27, 2013)
Thank you very much for letting us know that some of your Honeybells didn't arrive in perfect condition. It's been a rough patch for fruit arrivals over the past couple of weeks, and other fruit shippers are reporting the same results. All the fruit is firm and fresh when it leaves the packinghouse, but Honeybells are highly perishable, and the least little bit of rough handling will bruise them. If that happens, decay can begin and will proceed very fast. We guarantee all arrivals 100%, though, regardless of cause, so we have scheduled a replacement for the fruit that wasn't good to go out on our next truck to Texas on 2/8. Many thanks, and we hope you enjoy your fruit! Pete

This review paper summarizes present knowledge about turbulence in the free atmosphere. Data from various sources allow the construction of an average spectrum of atmospheric motions which covers almost the entire range of periods from 1 second to 1 year. It is shown that the micrometeorological maximum, which probably exists in cases of moderate and severe CAT (clear air turbulence), is not separated from synoptic scale motions by a deep mesoscale gap. Theoretical considerations and observations in the laboratory, the ocean, and the free atmosphere suggest that CAT is a manifestation of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability. This implies that for better understanding of CAT, for forecasting, and for planning of air-borne measurements, isentropic analysis of the meteorological situation is advisable. Sophisticated aircraft instrumentation is now beginning to yield data sufficiently accurate and detailed to make feasible the use of the powerful tool of energy budget analysis for CAT studies. Recent experiments in the atmosphere have not clarified the problem of the existence of the buoyant subrange and the corresponding behavior of the spectrum. Development of a high-resolution vertical sounding technique permits the measurement of the spectra of the horizontal winds in the vertical direction, which may make possible the prediction of microturbulence features from vertical wind profile analysis. Temperature spectra in the free atmosphere are discussed, and the values of the temperature dissipation rate and of the structure function coefficient are calculated for CAT of several different intensities.

MIAMI (AP) — When Kerri and Brian Kaley came under federal investigation for allegedly stealing medical devices, they took out a $500,000 line of credit on their New York house to hire lawyers. Yet after their indictment in 2007, prosecutors sought to prevent the Kaleys from using the money because the government intended to seize the house.
The Kaleys insisted they were legally reselling the medical items. At the very least, they wanted a hearing to determine whether the government's case was strong enough to justify freezing most of their assets and denying them the right to hire the attorney of their choice.
It's an issue federal courts around the country are deeply divided over. Now, the U.S. Supreme Court has a chance to settle the matter after agreeing earlier this year to hear the Kaleys' appeal.
The case involves both the Fifth Amendment's due process clause and the Sixth Amendment's right to counsel, and could potentially affect thousands of cases each year in which the Justice Department seeks to seize defendants' property. Such cases typically range from alleged drug dealers and Mafia figures to Ponzi schemers and Medicare fraudsters, but also could ensnare people who are wrongly accused.
To property rights advocates, the Kaleys' case is an opportunity for the court to tip the scales of justice slightly more in the favor of defendants who are routinely deprived of their assets without being convicted. The ruling would not directly impact state courts, which operate under their own forfeiture laws, but lawyers could cite the Supreme Court decision to help a client.
"People who are indicted on criminal charges in the United States are presumed innocent," said Larry Salzman, an attorney with the Institute for Justice, an Alexandria, Va.-based nonprofit law firm involved in forfeiture and property seizure cases nationwide. "Seizing their assets on the basis of an indictment alone turns the presumption of innocence on its head. It follows the rule of punishment first, evidence later."
Prosecutors, however, say a grand jury's decision to bring criminal charges shows the case has enough merit to enable them to freeze assets that may have been obtained through illegal activity.
In fiscal 2012, more than $4.2 billion was deposited in the Justice Department's asset forfeiture fund. That compares with about $1.6 billion in each of the two previous years.
Prosecutors say adding a hearing to allow a defendant to attack the validity of the grand jury's indictment would force prosecutors to prematurely lay out their case and might even endanger witnesses.
"No reason exists to think that an extra layer of procedure on that score — one that could be undertaken only at significant cost — would be beneficial, much less that it is constitutionally mandated," the U.S. solicitor general's office wrote in Supreme Court papers.
The office, which represents the administration of President Barack Obama before the Supreme Court, also asked the justices to settle the question nationally so there would be a single standard in federal courts.
The Kaleys, who live in Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., have been battling the government for more than six years. They declined an interview request through their Miami-based attorneys, Howard Srebnick and Richard Strafer.
It all started when the Food and Drug Administration began an investigation in 2005 into what appeared to be a highly lucrative but unregulated market of resale of various medical devices, from hardware to sutures. The probe led investigators to a Delray Beach middleman in South Florida who was buying the devices from the Kaleys and others and then selling them to other medical providers. He did some $10 million in business in one year.

Please confine anything over 300 yards to the range, regardless of calibre. Two of the men I hunt with hold NRA"Distinguished Master" ratings in high power rifle. Neither will shoot at a game animal past 300 yards. Nor will I.
War is the continuation of politics by other means. Carl von Clausewitz VThe best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.Winston Churchill
Really you want to mount 2 scopes on one hunting rifle? Then you want it to shoot 1k+ but not be too heavy or to tactical. OMG this is a doozy. 1. a long range rifle has a LONG heavy barrel with a stock that is low wide and heavy as well unless you want to shot in the light gun category then you are limited to 16# i believe. You then want to pack this rifle out in to the wood to shoot game at long ranges but you want to put a scope on the side of the rifle just in case a deer sneaks up on you. 2. Hunting rifles are made to fire 1 or 2 shots at most at one time (meaning close together) accuracy for a hunting rifle is totally different that shooting at 1k for accuracy. 3. Then you want to have a semiauto but not a tactical. I shoot F-class every spring and summer. Never once have I seen a semiauto on the firing line. Nor have I ever seen a hunting rifle on the line either. 4. Optics are totally different for the two. I use Nightforce 5.5-22x56mm NSX scopes on my F-Class rifles. I use a March on my bench gun. My hunting rifles also use Nightforce NSX scopes. You are going to end up with either A an ar with a bunch of mall ninja crap on it or B a heavy barreled long range right with a heavy barrel and a cart to pack it into the woods and carry it and your deer that you just blasted a Maryland sized hole in because so many on here don't understand that you don't need a MAGNUM to shoot over 500 yards. Just get a Ruger m77MkII VT in 308 and call it a day or get a Remington 700P 5r and call it an even better day. Put a 5.5-22x56mm nightforce and you can hit just about anything from 1000 yards to 50 yards.

Nadia Nair - Monika The Brave
Artist: Nadia Nair
Producer: Victor Rådström
Album: The Bon Voyage EP
Avg Rating: 2.5 ( 4 votes )
DJBooth.net is primarily a website that features hip-hop and R&B, but truth be told we love all kinds of music… as long as the quality is top notch. For example, Monkia The Brave, the latest from Sweden's own Nadia Nair, wouldn't be traditionally classified as "urban music," but it is most certainly awesome, which is why we knew we must share it with our readers. Producer Victor Rådström creates an impressive landscape for Nair's vocal performance, placing a unique vocal chop atop a catchy, accelerated instrumental that gives the track a pop/rock feel. It's Nadia's vocals, however, that truly command your attention. Her fiery, impassioned performance gives an otherwise bubble-gummy effort a strong, at times punk-esque edge. A fan of Monika The Brave? There is much more where it came from on Nair's newly-released EP, The Bon Voyage, out now.

BEIJING (Reuters) - The wife of a prominent Chinese dissident who backed a campaign for democratic change said his detention made a mockery of China's laws, even as Beijing defended its record before a United Nations panel.
Liu Xia, the wife of dissident Liu Xiaobo, has so far avoided extensive public comment on his detention by state security police since late last year, when he helped to launch the "Charter 08" petition urging an end to one-party rule in China.
But at the end of what she called a lonely Chinese New Year, she told Reuters she felt compelled to speak out about his case -- one critics raised at the U.N. Human Rights Council meeting in Geneva this week to examine China's human rights record.
Under Chinese law, Liu Xiaobo's "residential detention" entitles him to a sort of house arrest, where he can meet freely with his family and lawyer. Instead he is held in an undisclosed location near Beijing, with one meeting with his wife on Jan. 1.
"I wish that China would follow its own laws. If you don't honour laws, what's the point of having them?" Liu Xia said.
Liu Xiaobo is the only activist to be detained for more than a few days over Charter 08, which Chinese Internet censors have scrubbed all mention of but which has been passed around by e-mail or by hand since its release.
Under Chinese law, he should have been charged or released within six months.
"I had really wished for a meeting over the Lunar New Year, because sometimes that happens. I kept clutching the cell phone, hoping for a call," said Liu Xia, a frail artist who keeps her head shaved like a nun. Her anxiety forces her to rely on sleeping pills to get rest.
"In a way, having him in a real jail would be better. At least then you have the right to meet and send letters."
Liu has been one of China's most prominent dissidents since 1989, when he was heavily involved in pro-democracy protests in and around Tiananmen Square that were crushed on June 4 that year. Since his release from jail he has continued to write acerbic criticisms of the ruling Communist Party.
Police have repeatedly questioned people who signed the manifesto and appear to be trying to reconstruct how it was organised. Some signatories have been asked to recant or say that they did not sign it
"Liu Xiaobo is expressing his right to free speech. This is a basic right ... the Communist Party simply shouldn't be detaining people like this," said Jiang Qisheng, who also signed Charter 08 and who, with Liu, is active in an independent Chinese writers' association.
The U.N. Human Rights Council will publish its review of China's human rights conditions on Wednesday, two days after holding hearings in Geneva.
Chinese officials in Geneva defended their country's record, stressing China's achievements over the past 30 years in feeding, clothing, housing and educating 1.3 billion people while raising average life expectancy.
But Jiang said political rights lagged badly.
"Chinese rights need strengthening in many areas. I hope the international community continues to act, continues to criticise, so that everyone can work together to get Chinese rights going in the right direction," Jiang said. "There is a lot more to do."

St. John's Antigua- Former West Indies fast bowler, Michael Holding, has revered former captain, Sir Vivian Richards, as one of the most talented individuals to have played the game.
ST JOHN'S, Antigua - The Regional 4-Day tournament resumes tomorrow with fifth round of matches, following a one-week break last weekend. And Jamaica's captain Tamar Lambert said his side will continue to play hard, as they seek to win the tournament for a fifth straight year.
St John's, Antigua – The Regional 4 Day 5th round game between Leeward Islands and Windward Islands has been moved from the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Grounds in Antigua.
T&T offspinner Sunil Narine is currently the leading wicket-taker in the Regional Four Day Tournament, despite having played in one less match than the other bowlers in the top five. The 23-year-old, who orchestrated the Red Force's victories over CCC and the Windward Islands, has now taken 31 scalps in three games (ave:9.61).

Climbing the Great Wall, an experience I will never forget. A must do in Beijing. Our guide and driver were fantastic. We love Viator, use them on every trip we take.
We didn't visit Badaling, but went to another section that was a stopping point for the emperor when visiting Mongolia. Our tour guide was very informative and helpful.
Fantastic. The guide gave us a show of China History and tradition.
Gerald L
As usual, Viator provided a very interesting tour with a very knowledgeable and personable guide, As luck would have it, we were the only two people on the tour that particular day, so we had what turned out to be a "private" tour. Both the Great Wall and the Ming Tombs are, without a doubt, two of the world's most impressive sites and should not be missed when one visits the Beijing area. One word of caution, however: The word "antique" appears to be used a bit liberally in the gift shops near the Great Wall.
Ricky V
Tour guide is very knowledgeable of the Badaling part of the Great Wall of China. She told us to go the less crowded side of the wall so we could get a better view of the wall and take better pictures. This way we could also have an easier time hiking all the way to the top if we want to, which we did.
Stephen V
Wow! The Great Wall was quite the experience. Difficult climbing at times. Too many stops at "shops". Maybe there should be a tour just for shoppers. The lunch was very good. Cherry was excellent guide and answered our many questions. She gave commentary most of the time we were travelling between sites.
Raja M
Our tour guide was excellent. There were no other clients so the trip ended up being a private tour for both of us in a nice car with a drivre and the guide. The guide spoke excellent english, was very informative and very helpful.
A fantastic trip - well organised, a very informative guide, and a highlight of our visit to China.
New Zealand
Conntacted by guide night before tour as promised. It happened to be a private tour. Guide was speaking perfect English and with great knowlege of history and cultur of China. Great experience.
United Kingdom
superb day, fantastic guide an extremely personalised tour.
Bethany D
The guide Thomas was fantastic! Provided great info while not being overbearing as some guides can be. I would do it again in a heartbeat! BEST GREAT WALL TOUR! I had been to the other sections but Badaling was by far the most scenic. Try to go to the great wall first thing in the morning to avoid the corwds.
Tarkan B
The tour guide did a great job and I recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting sites in and around Beijing.
Great tour! Tour guide was very knowledgeable. Many other stops along the way give you a good view of the city, and see things you may not have gone to see.
United Kingdom
Excellent trip, with a lovely and knowledgable guide, Thomas. He really madde the trip for us, and we saw the best bits of the wall, the ming tombs, and the sacred path. Thomas' knowledge and language skills were excellent and i'd recommend this trip as a good all rounder from Beijing. Only down side was the compulsory shopping trips to the Jade market and Tea shops. We were the only ones on the tour, so when we said we didn't actually drink tea and didn't need to buy any, we weren't treated very nicely by the shop staff. Nothing to do with the guide though.
Michael G
I booked a 'group tour' expecting a bus; however, it ended up being me, the driver and the tour guide all day. I thought the Ming Tombs were a waste of time. You see one temple, and then a mound of dirt where the tombs are said to be, and that's it. Then you go onto the Great Wall which was one of the best experiences of my life. Everyone who visits China has got to go to the wall. I was grinning ear to ear the whole time even though it was -2 degrees and there was snow everywhere. The only issue I had was that I was back at my hotel by 2pm and it was meant to be a full day tour.

With nearly half of all IT buying decisions now driven by marketing needs, the push for fast, next-generation solutions is forcing technology developers to confront a new innovation model or risk marginalization, experts say. Glenn Conradt, vice president of global marketing at CoreMedia, writes that the rise of marketing IT is creating the need for unprecedented cooperation between marketers and their IT counterparts, a process that requires CIOs to think and behave outside the box and find ways to collaborate with colleagues with whom they once had little interaction.

Re: Team Pinnace Strikes! [Ready For Grading]
The Mantine was hesitant, wondering how to act on this. It sat there, making it's decision, Amelia waiting patiently. Suddenly, her wrists were restrained, much to her surprise. The officer who had previously wanted to interrogate her pulled her up by the wrist. "I talked it over with the other officers. We've decided that you're coming in whether you like it or not."
An hour later, she was in a room alone with the officer who had brought her in.
"What were you doing on this platform?," he asked.
"I was scuba diving to find out what was annoying three Gyrados, when I discovered this ship," she responded, continuing to describe the massive adventure she was on for the past three days. The officer was in disbelief for most of the time at just how ridiculous this adventure was. An oil platform? A monopoly on all aquatic life? Attempting to do something as unrealistic as capturing every Water-type Pokemon in the world, which would take decades to do even with a hundred members? He quickly decided that he should have let her just capture the Mantine, after all. "Alright, Amelia Shaw. You're free to go," he muttered, clearly bored and ready to ask William or any of the members of Team Pinnace, expecting a much more realistic response. She smiled and walked out of the room.
Rushing to the marina, Amy pulled out a Pokeball. Much to her surprise, the Mantine had waited all that time. "So, I assume you want to be my Pokemon, then?"
The Mantine smiled and swam around in a circle, clearly excited. Amelia laughed, grabbing some rope from William's boat and tying it around the bottom half of the ball before activating it and throwing it out to the Mantine. As soon as it caught it and closed up, she reeled it back in, holding the ball in her hand as it began to make it's usual three noises.
Bling. An enviroment began to generate suitable for the Mantine, a puddle of water seeming like an ocean to the miniaturised Mantine, complete with a sandy seabed and Remoraids traversing the waters.
Bling. The sky began to form around the Mantine. A sunny day, giving a warm reflection, which Mantine enjoyed greatly.
Amelia held onto the Pokeball tightly as she threw the tracker to the side. Her fingers were crossed, her forehead was covered in sweat and water from her adventure, her hands clammy around the Pokeball, which was working away at making a virtual reality for the Mantine to comfort it whilst it was stuck in the Pokeball. Her legs were still trembling, her throat dry and her eyes heavy. Her adventure had tired her out. She didn't want to go out to sea again just to get Mantine, she just wanted to rest with the Pokemon safely restrained within the Pokeball. At that moment, only one thought went through her mind, the one hope that the Mantine would enjoy it's surroundings in the Pokeball and accept it's request to capture it. This whole image was summed up in three words, repeated over and over and over again, through Amelia's mind.
"Please Go Bling."
Thanks, Kayla Ann!

Description The present application is related to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/435,150, filed May 9, 2003, entitled �SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING AN ERROR CORRECTION CODE WORD FOR STORAGE IN MEMORY COMPONENTS,� which is incorporated herein by reference; this application is also related to concurrently filed and commonly assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/879,262, entitled �SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING APPLICATION OF AN ERROR CORRECTION CODE (ECC) ALGORITHM IN A MEMORY SUBSYSTEM,� and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/879,643, entitled �SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR APPLYING ERROR CORRECTION CODE (ECC) ERASURE MODE AND CLEARING RECORDED INFORMATION FROM A PAGE DEALLOCATION TABLE,� which are incorporated herein by reference. Electronic data storage utilizing commonly available memories (such as dynamic random access memory (DRAM)) can be problematic. Specifically, there is a probability that, when data is stored in memory and subsequently retrieved, the retrieved data will suffer some corruption. For example, DRAM stores information in relatively small capacitors that may suffer a transient corruption due to a variety of mechanisms. Additionally, data corruption may occur as the result of hardware failures such as loose memory modules, blown chips, wiring defects, and/or the like. The errors caused by such failures are referred to as repeatable errors, since the same physical mechanism repeatedly causes the same pattern of data corruption. A variety of error detection and error correction mechanisms have been developed to mitigate the effects of data corruption. For example, error detection and correction algorithms may be embedded in a number of components in a computer system to address data corruption. Frequently, ECC algorithms are embedded in memory controllers such as coherent memory controllers in distributed shared memory architectures. In general, error detection algorithms employ redundant data added to a string of data. The redundant data is calculated utilizing a check-sum or cyclic redundancy check (CRC) operation. When the string of data and the original redundant data is retrieved, the redundant data is recalculated utilizing the retrieved data. If the recalculated redundant data does not match the original redundant data, data corruption in the retrieved data is detected. Error correction code (ECC) algorithms operate in a manner similar to error detection algorithms. When data is stored, redundant data is calculated and stored in association with the data. When the data and the redundant data are subsequently retrieved, the redundant data is recalculated and compared to the retrieved redundant data. When an error is detected (e.g, the original and recalculated redundant data do not match), the original and recalculated redundant data may be used to correct certain categories of errors. An example of a known ECC scheme is described in �Single Byte Error Correcting-Double Byte Error Detecting Codes for Memory subsystems� by Shigeo Kaneda and Eiji Fujiwara, published in IEEE TRANSACTIONS on COMPUTERS, Vol. C31, No. 7, July 1982. In one embodiment of the invention, a computer readable medium, comprising executable instructions for controlling application of an error correction code (ECC) algorithm in a memory subsystem, comprises code for recording occurrences of data corruption in data retrieved from the memory subsystem, code for analyzing the occurrences of data corruption to detect a repeated bit pattern of data corruption across different addresses of the memory subsystem, and code for controlling application of the ECC algorithm to erase bits associated with a repeated bit pattern, detected by the code for analyzing, from data retrieved from the memory subsystem. In another embodiment of the invention, a method for controlling application of an erasure mode of an error correction code (ECC) algorithm in a memory subsystem, comprises detecting errors in cache lines retrieved from the memory subsystem using the ECC algorithm, analyzing the errors to detect a repeated bit pattern of data corruption within the cache lines, correlating the detected repeated bit pattern of data corruption to one of a plurality of domains of the memory subsystem, and applying the ECC algorithm to erase bits associated with the detected repeated bit pattern from cache lines retrieved from the correlated domain of the memory subsystem. In another embodiment of the invention, a system comprises memory means for storing data, memory controller means for storing caches lines in and retrieving cache lines from the memory means, wherein the memory controller means applies an error correction code (ECC) algorithm to the cache lines to erase predetermined bit locations within the cache lines, means for recording instances of data corruption in cache lines detected by the memory controller means, means for differentiating the instances of data corruption according to transient errors, repeatable errors associated with a memory bank, repeatable errors associated with a memory rank, repeatable errors associated with a bus, repeatable errors associated with all of the memory means, and means for activating an erasure mode for the ECC algorithm for a domain of the memory means in response to the means for differentiating Embodiments of the present invention are directed to employing an ECC algorithm within a memory subsystem to provide increased reliability of the memory subsystem. In one representative embodiment, the ECC algorithm enables multiple �single-byte� errors to be corrected within a single cache line. A single-byte error refers to corruption of any number of bits within eight adjacent bits of a cache line aligned according to eight-bit boundaries. The correctable errors may be transient single-byte errors. Moreover, representative embodiments enable correction of repeatable errors within a single cache line in addition to the correction of transient errors. The repeatable errors may be caused by a failing DRAM part, a memory interconnect malfunction, a memory interface logic malfunction, and/or the like. The correction of a repeatable error occurs according to an �erasure� mode. �Erasing� refers to decoding an ECC code word by assuming that an identified bit or bits are corrupted. The erasure mode is activated by loading a register in a memory controller with a suitable value to identify the location of the repeatable error. When the erasure mode is activated, performance issues are raised. The additional processing associated with the erasure mode causes memory transactions to consume additional time. Also, the probability of decoding an uncorrectable error as correctable is increased due to the mathematical properties of the ECC algorithm. Even though the increased probability is relatively small, the probability is not insignificant in relatively large memory subsystems. In one representative embodiment, a software algorithm maintains a record of data corruption detected by the ECC algorithm to enable selective activation of the erasure mode. The software algorithm analyzes the occurrences of data corruption to identify repeated bit patterns. If a repeated bit pattern is identified, the software algorithm correlates the occurrence of data corruption to a particular �domain� (a particular level or a particular component) of the memory subsystem. If a sufficient number of occurrences of data corruption have been detected as originating from the particular domain according to the same pattern of data corruption, the software algorithm activates the erasure mode for the domain of the memory subsystem. The software algorithm may activate the erasure mode by setting appropriate registers of the memory controller of the memory subsystem. The memory subsystem responds by decoding ECC code words from the domain of the memory subsystem by assuming that the identified bits within the ECC code words are corrupted. Referring now to the drawings, Memory controller 101 includes ECC logic 103 to append ECC redundancy bits to cache lines during storage and to utilize the ECC redundancy bits to perform error detection and correction upon retrieval of cache lines. The ECC redundancy bits may be used to address transient errors. Also, the ECC redundancy bits may be used to address repeatable errors. Specifically, malfunctions of various components may cause repeatable errors for selected memory addresses and have no effect on other memory addresses. For example, a wire within DRAM bus 106-1 may exhibit intermittent failure. Cache lines retrieved from ranks 107-1 through 107-4 will exhibit, from time to time, a repeated error for the bit associated with the failing wire. However, cache lines retrieved from ranks 107-5 through 107-32 will not experience a corresponding error at the same bit location. Registers 102 of controller 101 are used by ECC logic 103 to apply the erasure mode of the ECC algorithm to data retrieved from the specific portion of memory subsystem 100 affected by a detected component failure. Hereinafter, the term �domain� shall be used to refer to any portion of the memory subsystem to which the erasure mode ECC processing may be applied independently of the remaining portion of the memory subsystem. To correct repeatable errors according to an erasure mode in addition to transient errors, ECC logic 103 may utilize a suitable Reed-Solomon burst error correction code to perform single-byte correction. In Reed-Solomon algorithms, the code word consists of n m-bit numbers: C=(c, cn-2, . . . , co). The code word may be represented mathematically by the following polynomial of degree n with the coefficients (symbols) being elements in the finite Galios field (2m): C(x)=(cxn−1+cn−2xn−2 . . . +co). The code word is generated utilizing a generator polynomial (typically denoted by g(x)). Specifically, the payload data (denoted by u(x)) is multiplied by the generator polynomial, i.e., C(x)=xn−ku(x)+[xn−ku(x)mod(g(x))] for systematic coding. Systematic coding causes the original payload bits to appear explicitly in defined positions of the code word. The original payload bits are represented by xn−ku(x) and the redundancy information is represented by [xn−ku(x)mod(g(x))]. When the code word is subsequently retrieved from memory, the retrieved code word may suffer data corruption due to a transient failure and/or a repeatable failure. The retrieved code word is represented by the polynomial r(x). If r(x) includes data corruption, r(x) differs from C(x) by an error signal e(x). The redundancy information is recalculated from the retrieved code word. The original redundancy information as stored in memory and the newly calculated redundancy information are combined utilizing an exclusive-or (XOR) operation to form the syndrome polynomial s(x). The syndrome polynomial is also related to the error signal. Using this relationship, several algorithms may determine the error signal and thus correct the errors in the corrupted data represented by r(x). These techniques include error-locator polynomial determination, root finding for determining the positions of error(s), and error value determination for determining the correct bit-pattern of the error(s). For additional details related to recovery of the error signal e(x) from the syndrome s(x) according to Reed-Solomon burst error correction codes, the reader is referred to T Erasures in error correction codes are specific bits or specific strings of bits that are known to be potentially corrupted without resorting to the ECC functionality. For example, specific bits may be identified as being potentially corrupted due to a constant or intermittent hardware failure such as a malfunctioning DRAM component, a wire defect, and/or the like. Introduction of erasures into the ECC algorithm is advantageous, because the positions of the potentially corrupted bits are known. Let d represent the minimum distance of a code, v represent the number of errors, and μ represent the number of erasures contained in a received ECC code word. Then, the minimum Hamming distance between code words is reduced to at least d−μ in the non-erased portions. It follows that the error-correcting capability is [(d−μ−1)/2] and the following relation is maintained: d>2v+μ. Specifically, this inequality demonstrates that for a fixed minimum distance, it is twice as �easy� to correct an erasure as it is to correct a randomly positioned error. In one representative embodiment, ECC logic 103 of memory controller 101 may implement the decoding procedure of a [36, 33, 4] shortened narrow-sense Reed-Solomon code (where the code word length is 36 symbols, the payload length is 33 symbols, and the Hamming distance is 4 bits) over the finite Galios field (28). The finite Galios field defines the symbol length to be 8 bits. By adapting ECC logic 103 in this manner, the error correction may occur in two distinct modes. In a first mode, ECC logic 103 performs single-byte correction. In the second mode (the erasure mode), a byte location (or locations) is specified in the ECC code word as an erasure via a register setting. The location is identified by a software or firmware process as a repeatable error caused by a hardware failure. ECC logic 103 decodes the retrieved data by assuming that the single-byte associated with the identified erasure is corrupted. Because the minimum Hamming distance is reduced, ECC logic 103 enables the entire cache line to be recovered even when another (e.g., a transient) single-byte error is present in addition to the erasure error. Additional details regarding a hardware implementation of the ECC algorithm employing a selectively enabled erasure mode in a memory subsystem may be found in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/435,150 entitled �SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING AN ERROR CORRECTION CODE WORD FOR STORAGE IN MEMORY COMPONENTS.� As previously discussed, data corruption in a memory subsystem may result from a number of causes. Most frequently, the cause of data corruption is a particle strike. A particle strike involves the transfer of energy to a DRAM element thereby changing the state of the DRAM element and corrupting the bit associated with the DRAM element. A particle strike is a random occurrence and, hence, falls within the �transient error� characterization. A particle strike does not indicate that any hardware component is malfunctioning and the appropriate response generally involves correction of the data corruption. DRAM vendors estimate that discrete DRAM elements exhibit an error rate of 5000 to 15000 failures in time (FIT), typically measured in billion device hours. Using 10,000 FIT as an average, a single DIMM can be expected to experience a transient error once every 114 days. In a memory subsystem with 32 DIMMs, approximately 100 errors can be expected per year. Accordingly, the observation of approximately 100 randomly occurring errors per year at random locations in a memory subsystem is not a cause for concern. Some representative embodiments maintain records of errors to determine whether errors can be characterized as transient errors or repeatable errors to control the selective activation of erasure mode ECC processing. From time to time, error analysis algorithm 203 stored in system firmware 202 (or other suitable non-volatile memory or computer readable medium) is executed by a processor 201. Error analysis algorithm 203 polls memory controller 101 to obtain the information related to detected occurrences of data corruption. In response, error analysis algorithm 203 records the occurrences in error records 204. Error records 204 contain suitable information to enable repeated errors to be detected such as the bit location(s) exhibiting the error(s), the memory addresses of the error(s), the buses, the memory ranks, the DRAM banks used to communicate a corrupted cache line, and/or the like. When a repeated error is detected, error analysis algorithm 203 sets respective registers of memory controller 101 to erase the bits associated with the repeated pattern for the domain of memory subsystem 100 that generated the repeated error. In step 305, a logical comparison is made to determine whether the current data corruption is consistent with prior bit patterns of data corruption as reflected in error records 204. If not, the process flow proceeds to step 308 where error analysis 203 ends. If the logical comparison of step 305 is true, the process flow proceeds to step 306. In step 306, a lowest-level domain associated with the bit pattern associated with the current data corruption is determined. In one representative embodiment, the instances of data corruption for the bit pattern are examined to determine whether the patterns originated from (i) different addresses associated with a respective discrete DRAM bank; (ii) different addresses associated with a respective rank 107 of DRAM components; (iii) different addresses associated with a respective DRAM bus 106; (iv) different addresses associated with a respective quadrant bus 104; or (v) different addresses scattered across memory subsystem 100. From this analysis, the lowest-level domain is determined that encompasses all of the instances of data corruption. In step 307, the erasure mode is activated for the determined domain to erase bits associated with the observed bit pattern of data corruption. In step 308, the process flow ends. It shall be appreciated that the memory subsystem architecture and functionality shown in Representative embodiments enable a memory subsystem to be resilient against memory errors. Specifically, the correction of a repeated error and a single transient error within the same cache line appreciably reduces the probability that data corruption will cause an unrecoverable error or a system crash. Representative embodiments enable the correction of such errors by analyzing occurrences of data corruption and correlating those errors to specific components or portions of a memory subsystem. By performing such correlation, an erasure mode of an ECC algorithm may be applied. Furthermore, the erasure mode of the ECC algorithm can be limited to a specific subset of the memory subsystem thereby reducing performance limitations associated with the ECC erasure mode.

Thousands of Disabled Workers in PA Paid Far Below Minimum Wage
By Halle Stockton | PublicSource
About 13,000 disabled Pennsylvanians are earning an average of $2.40 an hour in a legal use of subminimum wages.
The majority work almost solely with other disabled people, in a world tucked away from the mainstream labor market.
They're given menial tasks, like folding boxes, shredding paper or packing mail inserts.
Since 1986, there has been no limit to how little they can be paid. And even the federal government, which issues the certificates that allow employers to pay subminimum wages, doesn't track the hourly earnings of the workers.

Me personally I'm looking forward to moving out (although not nearly as far as I would really like). More and more I find that I really dislike the town I live in and the people (both the kids themselves and the parents of the kids) that my children are getting to know.
I'm most definitely not a "mountain man" type...don't hunt...fish once in a blue moon but never cleaned and kept my catch. But I like to BBQ...and I like to try to do home projects on my own within reason...Apparently things like mowing your own yard, putting in a garden and putting up a clothesline are extremely frowned upon in my town...ironic thing is growing up the town I lived in now was all working class WWII vets. Real shame where things have gotten to.
Now I'm just trying to bide my time til I can get out to west Jersey and get a little more property and not worry about my neighbors one way or the other.
I can't imagine living under all those ordinances and condescending neighbors. I couldn't imagine living without a big vegetable garden, for that matter. Mosta people around here have chickens running around in their yards, and you can geneally see at least a dozen cows from any given place at any given time, along with goats, horses, mules, donkeys, llamas, alpacas, guinesfowl, and such. One of our local amusements is sitting on the porch shooting at carpenter bees with a .22 pistol.

Brammer Plc, a U.K. distributor of bearings and power-transmission products, said profit jumped in 2010 after a "strong recovery" in the European economy boosted sales.
Net income rose to 13.8 million pounds ($22 million), or 13 pence a share, from 58,000 pounds, or 0.1 penny, a year earlier, the Manchester, England-based company said today in a statement. Revenue rose 9.9 percent to 468.4 million pounds.
"The outcome indicates a continuance of both the recovery, which became evident towards the end of the first quarter of 2010, and further market-share gains," Chairman David Dunn said in the statement. "The early evidence in 2011 is encouraging," with sales in January at operations open at least a year rising by more than 20 percent.
Brammer had called business in 2009 the "most difficult in recent times" after sales slumped amid the U.K.'s deepest recession since World War II. Earnings that year were held back by a 12.9 million-pound charge for eliminating jobs and reducing inventory, which the company said reduced annual operating costs by 15.8 million pounds.
Sales growth in 2010 was propelled by a 35 percent jump at its food and drink equipment business and a 32 percent gain at the pulp and paper machinery unit, Brammer said. Earnings before interest, taxes and amortization and excluding exceptional items or currency shifts rose 30 percent, led by jumps of 63 percent in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, 41 percent in the U.K. and 26 percent in eastern Europe.
Brammer declined as much as 0.5 percent to 251.75 pence and was down 0.4 percent as of 8:50 a.m. in London trading. That pared the stock's gain for this year to 0.8 percent.
The company plans a final dividend of 4.5 pence a share, an increase of 25 percent from a year earlier.

Chargers keep playoff hopes alive
Quarterback Matt Cassel didn't travel to San Diego after having an emergency appendectomy on Wednesday.
Can Alex Smith do the unthinkable and lead the Niners to the Super Bowl? Championship round preview.It looked like the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs stayed home, too.
Philip Rivers threw two touchdown passes to Malcom Floyd and the Chargers remained alive in the AFC West race with a 31-0 win Sunday over the division-leading Chiefs, who went nowhere without Cassel.
The Chiefs were such a non-factor that they were held to 67 yards, the second-fewest in their history, and suffered their first regular-season shutout loss to the Chargers. The teams began play in 1960 as members of the AFL.
''Defensively, I'm not sure that you could play any better than that,'' said Chargers coach Norv Turner, who gave game balls to the offensive and defensive lines.
The four-time defending division champion Chargers (7-6) pulled within one game of the Chiefs (8-5). A loss would have eliminated the Bolts from the division race.
After getting outmuscled in a 28-13 loss to Oakland last Sunday, the Chargers were handed two gifts. The first was hearing that Cassel had undergone an emergency appendectomy and that they'd likely be facing backup Brodie Croyle.
The second was the Raiders' loss at Jacksonville earlier Sunday, which dropped the Raiders to 6-7.
''It's a playoff game and we can't lose,'' Rivers said. ''We know that. We can't look to January because there's no guarantee we are going to get there. But it's playoff football from here on out, and it still may not be enough.''
Croyle completed 7 of 17 passes for 40 yards and was sacked four times in his first start since the 2009 opener.
The Chargers outgained the Chiefs 426 yards to 67. San Diego allowed only five first downs - one in the second half - to tie its team record.
''When we're on top of our game,'' we're pretty good,'' defensive tackle Antonio Garay said. ''We backed ourselves into a corner earlier in the season, had a couple of mishaps here and there. One thing that everyone knows about this team is that we're going to fight until the end.''
Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles, third in the NFL with 1,137 yards rushing coming in, was held to 40 yards on 10 carries.
''We know their defense is not all that good, but hey, they came through today and stopped us,'' Charles said.
Rivers was 18 of 24 for 226 yards.
The Chargers ran for a season-high 207 yards a week after being held to 21 in a 28-13 loss to Oakland.
Darren Sproles bounced back from a concussion to catch five passes for 51 yards and run six times for 53 yards. Fullback Mike Tolbert gained 66 yards on 16 carries and scored once, and rookie Ryan Mathews had 65 yards on 16 carries and a score.
''These backs were tackle-breaking machines,'' Chiefs coach Todd Haley said. ''Each one of them, although not with a ton of carries, had broken a lot of tackles. We had to have a great tackling game and we didn't do that.''
Said Chargers right tackle Jeromey Clary: ''They've got fresh legs and they're all different styles of runners. Mike Tolbert is the bowling ball, Mathews is the bowling ball with a little bit more speed than Tolbert and Sproles is just good speed. They're tough to prepare for.''
The Chargers are above .500 for only the second time this season. It was their first shutout since winning 27-0 at Oakland on Sept. 11, 2006.
The Chiefs were shut out for the first time since a 34-0 loss at Carolina on Oct. 5, 2008. They had only 16 yards and one first down in the second half. Croyle dropped to 0-10 as an NFL starter.
''I think if Cassel played we were going to play great anyway,'' Chargers safety Eric Weddle said. ''That was just our mentality. Maybe they would have put up a little more yards, but I don't think one guy would have made a difference in a 31-0 game.''
The Chiefs didn't put up a fight.
Rivers led the Chargers to a 21-0 halftime lead. He threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Floyd on San Diego's first drive and hit him again with a 9-yard TD pass with 40 seconds before halftime. In between, Tolbert ran 8 yards untouched for a touchdown midway through the second quarter.
The Chiefs, meanwhile, were outgained 256 yards to 51 yards in the first half and had only four first downs compared to San Diego's 17.
Rivers was intercepted and lost a fumble on consecutive drives in the third quarter.
Nate Kaeding kicked a 48-yard field goal Mathews scored on a 15-yard run in the fourth quarter.
It was the Chiefs who started the Chargers out on what's been a mediocre season by beating San Diego 21-14 on Sept. 13. Rookie Dexter McCluster returned a punt a team-record 94 yards for a touchdown, the first of many special teams blunders by the Bolts.
The Chargers more than returned the favor.
''I think what's critical for our team is that when you have a devastating, critical loss at a big moment in your season, you can use that to make you work harder, more diligently and stick together,'' Haley said.
Notes: The Chiefs gained 16 yards on 19 plays in the second half. ... Chargers LB Brandon Siler sustained an injury to his ribs and DE Jacques Cesaire had a knee injury. ... The Chargers' last home shutout was 26-0 against Indianapolis in 1992. ... The Chargers' only other shutout against the Chiefs was a 17-0 wild-card win following the 1992 season.

- Made the Leaderboard's At column display "uploads.ungrounded.net" as "www.newgrounds.com"
- Removed the two (rarely said) enemy voice clips
- Fixed landmines not removing on level reset
Cool game, mate! Although I feel that the graphics could use some work...
I love it! But it does need more. Maybe some obstacles, different maps, bosses, and possibly some more interesting upgrades like companions. I don't know why people are having trouble with the medals. I'm on day 57 and almost have every upgrade aside from a few weapons. I went Meds lvl 2, tags lvl 1, armor lvl 1, sniper rifle lvl 1, meds lvl 3, mg sentry lvl 1, armor lvl 2 (in that order) and I was fine from that point on.
I got to level 10, then stopped due to boredom. More needs to be put into this game. I'm just running around, dodging bullets, healing myself, endlessly. It gets boring after a while.
