Ineo NA216U2 Plus External USB 3.0 Enclosure
Ineo Technology is not one of the most well-known companies, but they have been producing high quality storage devices for many years. You will find products ranging from NAS appliances to external storage solutions like the NA216U2 Plus we are reviewing today, in their portfolio.
The NA216U2 Plus is a simplistic USB 3.0 enclosure that Ineo has designed so that you can quickly swap drives for an on demand super speed storage solution to fit anyone's budget. The NA216U2 Plus is compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7 and 8.
The Ineo NA216U2 Plus as stated before is a simple enclosure. The driving force behind this is the small SATA II to USB 3.0 adapter that comes packaged inside the plastic shell.
Looking over the adapter we see Ineo has included a blue LED off to the right as an activity indicator. The USB 3.0 cable for the adapter is directly attached with no possibility of removal, which I found to be somewhat annoying, as it leaves your drive hanging off the back of your PC.
Popping of the plastics we get to the meat of the adapter and stumbled upon an ASMedia 1051 controller, which does not support UASP.
After installing our Corsair Neutron SSD we can see the plastic enclosure fits our drive securely inside.
Everything was going great with our Ineo until I dropped it on the floor. That being said it was a fairly decent drop onto a hardwood floor.
Benchmarking external enclosures will consist of three pieces of software all using the same drive or drives in the case of a RAID device, Corsair Neutron SSD(s). The first benchmark is ATTO for marketing performance followed up by CrystalDiskMark to test NCQ at QD32 keeping in mind that for an external storage device to support NCQ it must also have UASP support. The last is DiskBench for the real world aspect of things.
Taking a peek at our results from ATTO, we find the INEO was capable of 259MB/s write and 271MB/s read.
Running CDM on our Ineo NA216U2 Plus we found the results to be similar to ATTO. At QD32 the enclosure was capable of 19MB/s read and 27MB/s write, which is comparable to most enclosure you will find on the market today.
DiskBench showed us the INEO was a pretty capable device as far as real-world transfers are concerned. Seen above the enclosure was able to transfer our test data at 217MB/s taking just 51 seconds to do so.
As I have stated many times in this review the INEO NA216U2 Plus is a simple enclosure. The case that fits your drive is made with the same type of plastics found in your tackle box for fishing, which surprised me when it shattered hitting the floor. The adapter itself uses a controller that does not support UASP, the ASMedia 1051. Personally I feel INEO should have opted for the ASMedia 1053, giving the end user higher performance with only a marginal increase in price.
However, as you seen in the review, the NA216U2 Plus does have decent performance. We were able to hit the higher end of the 200MB/s spectrum at 271MB/s read in ATTO again using our Corsair Neutron SSD.
Pricing of this enclosure at the time of review is $14.99 in the United States. With a price this low this enclosure should bring the option of USB 3.0 storage to the masses, just don't drop it.

Nice and pure. There is NO potassium chloride anywhere on my bottle as stated in other review. My bottle states other ingredients are NON-GMO vegetarian capsule called Pullulan. Thats it! Good product.

This is the one of the curcumin products with bioperine that I am able to find. However it is expensive. I found that the Other Ingredients list on the bottles I receive states that it also contains potassium chloride, unlike what's stated on iHerb's Product Details page, so it's a surprise for me because I have weak kidney/renal functions I should not take these capsules.

Great turmeric for Alzheimer patient
Posted by 4875328750685686782 on Oct 28, 2014
I bought this to stop my mother's cognitive decline. She is 92 with advanced Alzheimers and is not on any medication as she has had very adverse effects from all of them. She has just finished the first bottle. The normal dose is 3 capsules a day but she has only had one or two a day as she is quite adverse to taking any tablets or capsules. I give it to her in a very small dose of tomato juice. I believe the results are very positive: She sometimes has a very "real" comment regarding our daily lives. But what has been especially spectacular is the way she now joins in TOTALLY and without any error in the Catholic prayers before taking Holy Communion which is brought to us at home. She now stands to receive it and consumes it totally. She also now greets the person coming in and thanks them and says goodbye to them. Other tiny little improvements in recognizing things and places. She also takes about 2 tbsp of raw virgin coconut oil a day. This also is not enough but is all I can manage to give her. As a dedicated 24x7 caregiver, I totally recommend trying this out for your loved one. Speak to your doctor about it. I am myself also taking 2 a day as a preventive measure.

From press release
The Third Annual Sheet Music Festival will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, July 10, at JustGoods Listening Room, 201 Seventh St., Rockford.
Richard Zimmerman will do a program on ragtime music. He has been largely responsible for the worldwide revival of ragtime, and is one of its key figures as both a performer and a historian.

Tracy Doyle, the leading authority on the area's most important Tin Pan Alley composer Egbert Van Alstyne, will discuss his music. Van Alstyne was born in Marengo, Ill. He composed many great hits at the turn of the last century, such as "In the Shade Of The Old Apple Tree."
Local collector Lee Schreiner will discuss music written and/or published in Rockford since its early days.
Admission is free. Sheet music will be bought, sold and appraised. Bring in your old music and have it played for you.

Fischer defeated former Governor and U.S. Senator Bob Kerrey and independent candidate Russell Anderson in the November general election. Incumbent Senator Ben Nelson (D) did not seek re-election in 2012. Fischer succeeded him on January 3, 2013.[2]
Prior to her election to the Senate, Fischer served as a member of the Nebraska Unicameral, representing District 43, from 2005 to 2013.
Based on analysis of multiple outside rankings, Fischer is one of the most reliable Republican votes, meaning she can be considered a safe vote for the Republican Party in Congress.
Born March 1, 1951, in Lincoln, Nebraska, Sen. Fischer is a cattle rancher from Valentine, Nebraska. Her experience prior to election to the Nebraska State Legislature includes being a member of the Sandhills Cattle Association, the Nebraska Cattlemen, the Valentine Rural High School Board of Education, the AgBuilders of Nebraska, the Nebraska Department of Agriculture's Rural Rehabilitation Review Board, the Nebraska Agricultural Leadership Council and the Governor's Ag Advisory Council.[3]

In the 2009-2010 legislative session, Fischer served on these committees:
Key votes
113th Congress
The second session of the 113th Congress enacted into law 114 out of the 3,036 introduced bills (3.8 percent). Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[7] The Senate confirmed 13,949 out of 18,323 executive nominations received (76.1 percent). For more information pertaining to Fischer's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[8]
National security
John Brennan CIA nomination
Fischer voted against the confirmation of John Brennan as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. The nomination was confirmed by the Senate on March 7, 2013, with a vote of 63 - 34. Most Democrats supported the nomination, while Republicans were somewhat divided with roughly one-third supporting the nomination.[9]
Drones filibuster
On March 6, 2013, Senator Rand Paul (R) led a 13-hour filibuster of President Obama's CIA Director nominee, John Brennan. Paul started the filibuster in order to highlight his concerns about the administration's drone policies. In particular, Paul said he was concerned about whether a drone could be used to kill an American citizen within the United States border, without any due process involved. Paul and other civil liberties activists criticized President Obama for not offering a clear response to the question. A total of 14 senators joined Paul in the filibuster -- 13 Republicans and one Democrat.[10][11][12]
According to the website Breitbart, Fischer was one of 30 Republican senators who did not support the filibuster.[13][14]
The day after the filibuster, Attorney General Eric Holder sent a letter to Paul, responding to the filibuster. Holder wrote, "Does the president have the authority to use a weaponized drone to kill an American not engaged in combat on U.S. soil? The answer to that is no."[15]
No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013
Fischer voted against H.R.325 -- No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. The bill passed the Senate on January 31, 2013, with a vote of 64 - 34. The purpose of the bill was to temporarily suspend the debt ceiling and withhold the pay of members of Congress until a budget could be passed. The vote largely followed party lines with Democrats overwhelmingly supporting it and many Republicans in opposition to the bill.[16]

During the shutdown in October 2013, the Senate rejected, down party lines, every House-originated bill that stripped the budget of funding for the Affordable Care Act. A deal was reached late on October 16, 2013, just hours before the debt ceiling deadline. The bill to reopen the government, H.R. 2775, lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[17] The final vote on H.R. 2775 was 81-18, with all 18 votes against the bill from Republican members. Fischer voted with the Democratic Party for the bill.[18]

Fischer voted for Senate Amendment 1197 -- Requires the Completion of the Fence Along the United States-Mexico Border. The amendment was rejected by the Senate on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 39 - 54.

It would also require 700 miles of fence be completed before the status of registered provisional immigrants may be changed to permanent resident status. The vote followed party lines.[19]

Letter to Iran
On March 9, 2015, Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) wrote a letter to Iran's leadership, warning them that signing a nuclear deal with the Obama administration without congressional approval was merely an "executive agreement." The letter also stated that "The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time." The letter was signed by 47 Republican members of the Senate. Fischer was one of the 47 who signed the letter. No Democrats signed it.[23]
The letter caused intense backlash from both the Obama administration and the public. Vice President Joe Biden said of the letter, "In thirty-six years in the United States Senate, I cannot recall another instance in which senators wrote directly to advise another country — much less a longtime foreign adversary — that the president does not have the constitutional authority to reach a meaningful understanding with them."[24] On Twitter, the hashtag "47Traitors" became the top trending topic in the world, and a debate raged as to whether the 47 who signed the letter were traitors or patriots.[25]
Campaign themes
On her campaign website, Fischer listed the following nine issues:[26]
- 2nd Amendment Rights
- "I'm a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment and I've opposed every attempt by liberals to intrude on our right to own firearms. In the Nebraska Legislature, I have an A+ rating from the National Rifle Association. In the U.S. Senate, I will continue to be an advocate for gun owners and our constitutional rights."
- Agriculture
- "As someone involved in a family ranch business, I know firsthand the challenges and responsibilities people in agriculture face. Agriculture plays a crucial role in our Nebraska economy and provides a stable and safe food supply for our nation and for the world. As a U.S. Senator, I can be a key ally for Nebraska agriculture."
- Energy
- "Being dependent on oil coming from countries who are – or who soon could be – enemies of the United States just isn't wise. I support efforts to produce new sources of energy from wind and solar power and want to advance those technologies so they can become competitive with fossil fuels. In the meantime, I support efforts to increase efficient energy use and to use new technologies to reduce energy consumption. I support renewable energy sources, including ethanol, but I still believe the United States needs to be committed to exploring and recovering all of the potential energy sources we have here at home. In times where gasoline is approaching four dollars per gallon, I strongly believe that we need promote responsible oil drilling in our country."
- Healthcare
- "The government takeover of health care supported by President Obama and Senator Ben Nelson will move medical care in the wrong direction. As your U.S. Senator, I will vote to repeal Obamacare."
- Illegal Immigration
- "Keeping our borders secure is a primary responsibility of the federal government. If elected, I will support increased agents/troops on our southern border to beef up security. I support the E-verify system of validating legal immigrants when they apply for a new job. I will not tolerate those who break immigration laws and enter our country illegally."
- National Security
- "The most important job of the federal government is to keep us safe and secure. Our brave men and women in uniform perform their duty to protect all of us admirably and effectively. In the Senate, I will not play politics with our security and our troops. I will give our military the tools they need to keep America safe and free, and I will ensure our troops and their families are supported and that their needs are met."
- Protecting Life
- "I am proud to be pro-life and to have had a solid pro-life voting record during my seven years in the Nebraska Legislature. I will continue to support a culture of life by supporting pro-life policies in U.S. Senate."
- Small Businesses
- "Congress needs to set legislative priorities that will reward entrepreneurship, growth and innovation. When elected to the U.S. Senate, Deb Fischer will have five legislative priorities that she will address to give our small businesses a chance to succeed and create jobs."
- Taxes and Spending
- "Our federal debt is almost $15 trillion dollars. That is just unacceptable. We simply can not continue to print money to pay our national debt. Our first priority must be to cut federal spending. We cannot tax our way to prosperity like President Obama has proposed. The appetite for big spending programs is strong in Washington D.C. and we need to change politics-as-usual. That's why I strongly support a balanced budget amendment at the federal level."[26]
Fischer won election to the U.S. Senate in 2012.[27] Fischer defeated Bob Kerrey (D) and Russell Anderson (I) in the general election. She defeated Jon Bruning, Sharyn Elander, Pat Flynn, Don Stenberg and Spencer Zimmerman in the May 15 Republican primary.[28] She had been trailing in the polls heading into the primary. Outside groups spent more than $2 million on advertising, with more than $1 million going into attack ads against Bruning.[29][30]

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Fischer's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $-4,403,992 and $4,899,995. That averages to $248,001.50, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican senators in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Fischer ranked as the 51st most wealthy senator in 2012.[36] Between 2011 and 2012, Fischer's calculated net worth[37] decreased by an average of 25 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[38]
|Deb Fischer Yearly Net Worth
|Average Net Worth
|Growth from 2011 to 2012:

|Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[40]
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Fischer received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Retired industry.
From 2011-2014, 19.61 percent of Fischer's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[41]

Audit finds payroll issues at University of Oregon
SALEM — Some University of Oregon employees were allowed to use overtime to get around money-saving furlough days and pay freezes, state auditors said Thursday.
The audit by the secretary of state's office recommends that university leadership have more involvement in payroll decisions.
University officials requested an internal audit earlier this year after learning of potential payroll violations for grant-funded positions in the Institute of Neuroscience.
State auditors later got involved and found problems on the timesheets for 13 employees of the institute. Auditors said furlough days were recorded when the employee was actually working, and overtime was recorded to offset the pay cuts from the unpaid furlough days.
The audit said emails confirmed that payroll personnel would add overtime to the timesheets if employees forgot to do it.
One part-time employee was given a raise by increasing the hours paid from 20 per week to 34.4, but the employee was not expected to work more than 20.
Auditors say university leadership should communicate expectations about payroll and establish better controls over compensation, vacation time and overtime.
In a letter responding to the audit, Jamie Moffitt, UO's vice president for finance and administration, said the university agrees with the recommendations and is taking steps to correct the problems. The university is also developing new training for people responsible for complying with grant requirements.
